To

Five people camped on the top of an empty mountain, Insect Cry came all around, and the night sky shone overhead.

“Unbelievable, as if we were the only ones left in the entire world.” Mrs. Kiyano sat in a chair, looking at the Milky Way.

At the top of the mountain at the end of May, a bonfire drives away the chill.

The tongue of fire swayed, reflecting everyone’s profile or front face into bright yellow.

“Miki and Rin have finished answering. Next it is your turn, Watanabe-kun.” Mrs. Kujo was very interested.

“What do you think of Miki and Kiyano?” Watanabe Toru asked.

“Let’s talk about this first.” Mrs. Kujo has a tentatively first expression like this, and there is a tendency to talk all night long.

Watanabe Toru looks at Kujo Miki and Kiyano Rin.

Kujo Miki stands on her slender legs and looks back at him with a smile;

Kiyano Rin put a book in front of her, but she didn’t read it, she also looked at him.

“Let me consider the words and sentences.”

“Well, this is good for your safety in life.” Kiyano Rin said solemnly.

She and Watanabe Toru laughed at the same time.

Such conversations have appeared many times last year.

It happened a year ago, but it feels like a long, long time has passed. Now when I say it, there is a sense of reminiscence of years of age.

Kujo Miki glanced at the two of them and took a sip of tea.

Watanabe Toru thought for a while, and said, “Miki is arrogant, unreasonable, and cold. If you don’t get what you want, it will be ruined.”

“All shortcomings?” Mrs. Kujo asked curiously.

“Of course there are advantages, but even with these shortcomings, there are also her charms.”

“Talk about it.” Kujo Miki lifted his chin lightly.

“Hold arrogant, but tolerate me alone, and even eat what I have eaten.”

“Ah!” Mrs. Kiyano whispered, with an unacceptable expression on her face.

“It’s normal for couples? Probably.” Watanabe Toru smiled and said, “Also, she is unreasonable, but after the relationship, she becomes a girlfriend’s waywardness. As long as I speak well, most of her will agree; Cold, but occasionally pretending to be cold, and when I can’t help but laugh, it’s cute.”

“There is such a side?” Mrs. Kujo said strangely in surprise.

After listening to Watanabe Toru, Kujo Miki remembered the New Year in Iwate Prefecture.

In the early morning, she rode a motorcycle for the first time in her life, and she was still using the Honda Coyote for a long time.

Country roads; clear water channels on the side of the road; white windmills on the edge of the mountain in the distance; Watanabe Toru hugs himself on his waist.

Except for at first riding into the canal, in fact, nothing happened at the worst at that time, but she always remembered it clearly.

“Miki is a vine with poisonous thorns. If you approach it actively, you will get injured and even die.” Watanabe Toru continued, “But when you win her love, she will only take away her thorns from you. On the vine, bloom flowers that belong to you alone.”

Kujo Miki looked at Watanabe Toru without a word.

“Then how much do you love her?” Mrs. Kiyano asked Watanabe Toru.

The four of them looked at him, but Watanabe Toru didn’t answer immediately.

He sipped a sip of black tea and swallowed it slowly.

The warm feeling slowly moved from the throat to the stomach, and then spread from the stomach to the whole body.

He took another sip and said:

“I can say’higher than the mountain and deeper than the sea’,’like the stars in front of me, I love Miki as long as they exist’, but these are just games of words, no matter how beautiful they are, they cannot be described. The depth of love.”

After a short pause, he continued:

“I don’t know how much I love Miki, but I know that I will not leave her for the rest of my life.”

“Not bad.” Mrs. Kujo laughed, “Miki, how do you feel?”

There is no expression on Kujo Miki’s face, arrogant, proud, contemptuous, disdainful, not at all.

The empty campsite fell silent, the firewood crackled, and the Insect Cry pierced the ears.

“The depth of love cannot be described,” Kujo Miki said in silence, “but it is definitely me who loves more deeply.”

“Ah, Miki is so bold?” Mrs. Kiyano covered her mouth lightly.

“Not bold, tell the truth.” Kujo Miki’s expression was indifferent, “In terms of the depth of affection, men are not as good as women. For example, I, and some people, believe that someone’s attachments, or take the world Everything burn to ashes, or burn yourself to ashes.”

Watanabe Toru’s heart beats, looking towards Kujo Miki.

Kujo Miki is also looking at him.

In those clear and cold pupils, the flames of the campfire flickered, as if it was actually burning something mercilessly.

“You are all smelling of hot pot, go to the hot spring.” Mrs. Kujo stood up suddenly.

“Change to pajamas directly this time?” Mrs. Kiyano agreed without asking why.

“Well, I’m tired from walking today, take a break early, and go boating and exploring tomorrow.”

Kiyano Rin took the clothes out of the tent, watched Watanabe Toru sitting there and didn’t move, and asked him: “Aren’t you going?”

“Wait a moment.” Watanabe Toru replied softly.

“en. ”

After they left, Watanabe Toru sat alone in the empty campground.

all around silently, he was alone.

In the early morning of May 29th, Watanabe Toru eyes opened.

There is a low tent above my head, and I can hear the crisp sound of birds, and I can smell the fragrance of green grass.

He got up and walked out of the tent. The sky was bare, and the white clouds were like a few strokes painted by a painter on the blue sky.

The boredom of the first cold war with Kujo Miki last night was wiped out.

Today is the anniversary of the relationship, you must keep a happy mood.

Slightly stretched his body, he started a morning jog along the ridge, while checking the first anniversary sign-in rewards.

Watanabe Toru ran towards the forest, the trunk was straight, thin and tall. The sky light is like a laser, shooting down from the dense foliage.

He looked towards the bird on the branch: “Come here. (Order)”

The bird flapped its wings and landed on Watanabe Toru’s outstretched finger.

When he returned to the campsite with dew all over, Kiyano Rin was already up.

She took her clothes and was about to go to the hot spring to take a bath.

“It was a car ride and a mountain climbing again yesterday, but you can afford it,” Watanabe Toru said.

“New environment, I can’t sleep.” Kiyano Rin looked at the beautiful bird on his shoulder, “Even the birds started to lie?”

“Why don’t you say’even birds can’t stop your charm’?”

“The statement varies from person to person. So, what is going on?”

This little bird is very beautiful, its whole body is red, only a yellow feather grows on top of its head, and its head stands tall, like a queen wearing a crown.

Watanabe Toru worked hard to find it.

“The principle is not clear, but it seems to understand my commands.” Watanabe Toru said.

“It seems that you are really mentally ill.” Kiyano Rin looked at him with worried eyes.

“…”

Watanabe Toru turned his head and said to the bird: “Baby, go around the sky. (Order)”

The bird “tweeted” twice, waved its wings, and rushed into the sky at a very fast speed.

With the blue sky as the background, the silhouette of it diving and soaring is pleasing to the eye.

Every moment, the bird landed on Watanabe Toru’s shoulder again.

Kiyano Rin put his hand on his chin, pondered then said: “Koizumi Qingna travels through time and space, you are occupied, turned into a cat, and commanded bird. Are you really a superpower?”

“Aren’t you? Kiyano classmate who can see through lies.” Watanabe Toru said with a smile.

“The two of us are really different.” Kiyano Rin put down his hands and smiled beautifully, “What are you going to do with this bird?”

She doesn’t care about superpowers, but Watanabe Toru is like her. The only fact that makes her happy.

“Today is the anniversary of my relationship with Miki. I am going to give it to her.”

“Can it understand Miki?”

“Can I make it listen? Wait a minute, you just called her Miki directly?”

“It’s just a name. I still call you Watanabe-classmate.” Kiyano Rin didn’t care. “Our two families are in a good relationship. Their family is all Kujo. I don’t call her Miki. How do people know that I call her? ?”

“So, she used to call you “Rin”?”

Kiyano Rin nodded.

“The relationship is really good.” Watanabe Toru said, “Miki only calls me by name occasionally, envy.”

“A lie. You, like me, don’t care about the person you are called.” Kiyano Rin affirmed.

“It’s boring to talk to you.”

“This sentence is also a lie.”

“End.”

Watanabe Toru walks to the bonfire and prepares to start cooking rice, while Kiyano Rin goes to the hot spring to take a bath.

When the bonfire was lit, the birds stayed away and stood on top of Kujo Miki’s tent.

As he was putting firewood inside, behind him came the sound of the curtains being opened.

Watanabe Toru looked back, Kujo Miki walked out in pajamas with long sleeves and trousers.

“Get up so early today?”

“Can’t sleep.”

“What’s the matter?” Watanabe Toru asked concerned.

“Nothing. I’m not used to having people around me.” Kujo Miki said in a cold tone. She twisted her neck and took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air.

Watanabe Toru took out the lunch box, added purified water to it, boiled on the bonfire, and then lit the gas stove to prepare to fry the salmon.

“That’s right.” He turned the fire down, turned his head and said, “I have a gift for you.”

“en. ”

“Come down. (Order)” Watanabe Toru shouted, and the bird flew to his hand.

“I found it in the forest during morning exercises. I can understand my orders.” After that, Watanabe Toru ordered the bird again, “Listen to us in the future, you know?”

The bird spread its wings and tweeted twice.

“Try it.” Watanabe Toru said to Kujo Miki with a smile.

Kujo Miki looked at him coldly. What happened last night has not passed in her heart.

‘I will not leave her in my whole life’——she is no longer the same she was when she was on a school trip last year. She is no longer satisfied with this, wants more, wants the true love of Watanabe Toru.

“Go on her shoulder. (Order)”

The bird flapped its wings, flew up from Watanabe Toru’s shoulder, and drew a beautiful arc, which landed on Kujo Miki’s shoulder.

Kujo Mei turned her head and looked at her shoulder.

The bird tilted his little head and looked at Kujo Miki.

“Give it a name?” Watanabe Toru turned the heat up and continued to fry the salmon.

Kujo Miki looked at the bird and said, “Go down.”

The bird flew away from her shoulder, flapping back to Watanabe Toru’s shoulder.

“Go back. (Order)”

The bird fluttered and flew back to Kujo Miki’s shoulder.

“Go down.”

The bird returned to Watanabe Toru’s shoulder.

“Go back. (Order)”

The bird landed on Kujo Miki’s shoulder.

“Next…”

“Alright, alright.” Watanabe Toru said quickly, “Although it’s just a bird, you can’t bully it like that. It’s one of the anniversary gifts I give you. If you get angry, kick me. , Or pinch my ears.”

Kujo Miki didn’t look at him, staring at the bird.

“From today, you will be the queen.” She stroked the yellow feather with her hand, “come to my hand.”

I can’t see if the “Queen” has spread its wings, it seems that it landed on Kujo Miki’s slender snow-white fingers with a slight jump.

“What prop is this again?” Kujo Miki asked.

“Bird…”Queen” is not a prop, it may be a fairy from this mountain. “

“Maybe?” Kujo Miki looked contemptuously, snorted angrily.

“Hurry up and wash yourself. By the way, call them up too.”

The two wives woke up, and the three went to the hot spring with their clothes.

When I went, I divided into two groups, and when I came back, I came back together.

Breakfast includes fried fish, vegetable salad, rice, and miso soup. It is a simple island breakfast.

At the top of the mountain early in the morning at the end of May, the air was cool and it was just right to drink miso soup.

“The craftsmanship is average, don’t despise me.” Watanabe Toru said.

“It doesn’t matter, even if the picnic tastes mediocre, it tastes delicious.” Mrs. Kiyano’s words, I don’t know if it counts as a compliment.

“Without telling the breakfast beforehand, what is going on with this bird called “Queen”, Watanabe-kun? “Mrs. Kujo asked.

“When I was running in the morning, I met in the woods. Maybe I know that today is the anniversary of my relationship with Miki. Congratulations?”

“It’s so romantic, it’s just a bird.” Kujo Miki ate the fried fish.

“This is just one of the gifts.” Watanabe Toru said.

“oh?” Mrs. Kujo was curious, “What else?”

“Please allow me to keep this matter confidential.”

“Just tell Miki?” Mrs. Kiyano asked.

“Just tell Miki.” Watanabe Toru affirmed.

The topic returned to “Queen” again.

The two wives were very curious about it. They asked what kind of bird it was and where they caught it. Finally, they discussed not to rush to build a villa and camping ground, and let someone catch a few and make pets.

After breakfast, the five took a walk to the lake.

Walking along the ridge, the sky is high and the earth is far away, like walking at the end of the world.

The “Queen” flew out of sight for a while, and then flew back from an unexpected direction, happily to Kujo Miki chirp chirp twitter twitter.

After walking for half an hour, I saw a hillside full of wildflowers.

White, yellow, blue, pink, one next to each other, the entire hillside is dazzling.

“After lunch, come here to paint and take a nap!” Mrs. Kiyano said happily.

“Be careful of bees sting you.” Mrs. Kujo cracking a joke said.

“I have a straw hat, and I put it on my face when the time comes.”

“Fly in from the brim of the hat?”

“Where is there such a smart bee?”

“Look at the “Queen”, this place may have spirituality, and the animals are very smart. “

The two wives talked happily.

Kiyano Rin is too tired to speak; Kujo Miki doesn’t say a word, thinking about something; Watanabe Toru is at the back, sometimes looking at the scenery, sometimes looking at the beautiful back of Kujo Miki.

Walking to the highest point of the ridge, there is a downhill in front, and the lake is below it.

The level of the lake is as quiet as a mirror, and the water is blue, reflecting the blue sky and piled white clouds.

Simple scenery, but pleasing to the eye, relaxed and joyful.

“Mountaintop lake.” Watanabe Toru muttered to himself.

“Well, this used to be a volcano.” Mrs. Kiyano said, “It’s not bad, I will buy it.”

“Luxury.” Watanabe Toru expressed admiration.

“You did it on purpose? Why don’t you praise my investment vision?”

“Isn’t this still making money? What if you lose.” Watanabe Toru said.

“If you lose, you will build private campsites and villas.”

“Very generous!” Watanabe Toru once again expressed his admiration.

Everyone went downhill and came to the lake.

The lake is surrounded by stones, without silt, and occasionally waves come over, and the stones are washed smooth and translucent.

Standing close, as if facing the sea.

“Go on the boat.” Mrs. Kujo took the lead, and the five of them walked to the place where the boat was anchored.

Two wooden boats, each with a life jacket and oars.

“We are two young women in a team, you are in a team of three, okay?” Mrs. Kujo said.

According to the thoughts of the ladies, it is best to have Kiyano Rin and Kujo Miki in the same boat, but without Watanabe Toru, that is impossible.

“I will be with you.” Kiyano Rin said, “Today is their anniversary. Let them be alone for a while.”

Mrs. Kiyano looked at Mrs. Kujo, Mrs. Kujo thought for a while: “Okay, Rin, you and me…”

“Wait.” Kujo Miki said suddenly, “You are with us.”

Kiyano Rin looked at her in surprise.

She proposed to let the two be alone, feeling that something was wrong with her today, and didn’t expect Kujo Miki to be even more wrong than her.

More than Kiyano Rin, even Watanabe Toru and two wives were shocked by Kujo Miki’s words.

Kiyano Rin came back to his senses, nodded said: “Okay.”

Watanabe Toru looked at Kujo Miki, and Kujo Miki took a deep look at him.
