Chapter 117
Chapter 117
That day, looking at the smiling Kakashi, Reihi didn't move for a long time, those words had never been told to her, for so many years, what she had heard the most was how you should and shouldn't be, no one had ever taught her how to do it, and no one had ever explained to her why this happened.
And Kakashi, was the first.
He taught her how to come out of the shadows and stand in the sun, showing her a path to the human heart.
“...... Teacher..." At
dusk after the mission, Kakashi walked in front and Reihi followed, and she opened her mouth for the first time to call him sensei.
The footsteps stopped, and Kakashi didn't believe his ears a little.
Before, every time Reihi spoke to Kakashi, she addressed him as hey, your rude name, sometimes without even a subject, this time was the first time she called him a teacher.
"Kakashi-sensei..."
the girl called him again, this time he listened sincerely, a smile appeared under his eyes, Kakashi thought, this time, this child should not drill into the horn again, so he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
"Ah, I'm in."
"Teach me, teacher, I want to be a shield to protect my companions, I want to go the other way."
The field illuminated by the setting sun is a warm orange-red color, the ears of dogtail grass are full, the wind blows from afar, and the weeds rise and fall, like waves in the sea.
Kakashi turned around, put his big hand on the top of the girl's head, and gently rubbed it, the setting sun dyed Kakashi's silver hair red, and even the smile was exceptionally kind and easygoing.
"Well," pressed the top of her head, the nice mid-bass was particularly gentle at the moment, "it's tough, but it's the best way to go."
Reihi looked at Kakashi blankly, this man was much taller than her, all over his body was lazy and lazy, his silver hair fluttered in the breeze, a face only showed one eye and an eyebrow, strange dress, the eyes that were exposed outside, at the moment were bending into a crescent moon, smiling, very handsome.
The heartbeat missed a few beats, the pupils gradually dilated, the shell teeth bit the lower lip as if trying to find a fulcrum, and the white cheeks flushed. She felt her cheeks a little hot, why, maybe because of the setting sun, she said to herself in her heart.
However, she also knew that something was different from the beginning, hidden somewhere in her heart.
Lingxi, who returned to the sea of flowers, seemed to have changed into a person, and everyone around her could feel her change, no longer careful, no longer promised, as if there was a light shining on her, and there was still a smile on her face, but this smile was no longer false, no longer with humble flattery.
A fresh girl appeared in front of them, and even if they didn't want to admit it, they still felt that this child was really pleasing to the eye.
Kakashi spent three months in the sea of flowers, and after three months, he said goodbye to Reihi and returned to Konoha, where he was waiting for the graduating Shinobi, and Sarutobi had already found him a new student, a mashup of an ordinary girl, a crane-tailed thorn and a genius tsundere boy.
Hinata felt that the most suitable Shinobu for this combination was Kakashi, as for the reason, maybe it was the origin, or maybe it was intuition?
"Will I see the teacher in the future?"
The exit of the sea of flowers is on a hillside where the spirit rhino has been carrying Kakashi.
"Hmm... Maybe. Kakashi laughed.
This sentence is too fake, both of them can hear it, Lingxi feels that her eyes are a little sour, but if she sheds tears, it is too pretentious, and her self-esteem does not allow her to do this.
She lowered her head, green grass and dense pure white goose palm flowers under her feet, she thought that as long as she lowered her head, her reluctance would be well hidden, not to be discovered, but Kakashi was not a fool.
Kakashi looked at the girl, somewhat comforted, he was thinking that if Rin were still alive, he would have treated her the same way, gentle, careful, meticulous, and made up for all his regrets.
However, she was not Rin after all, she was thankfully not Lynn, and he never wanted to end the life of his companion with his own hands again.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly under the cover of the mask, and Kakashi raised his hand and rubbed the top of Lingxi's head.
He said, "Remember what I said, I will also remember what you said, you are going to take another road, the road that is difficult but the best to take, Lingxi, remember?" The
girl nodded, her mouth pouting as if she was about to cry.
It was very difficult to see the girl shedding tears, so he had to turn around before the tears fell.
Feeling out the copy of "Intimate Paradise" that he had read countless times from his pocket and holding it in his hand, Kakashi shook his hand with his back to Reihi as he walked down the hillside.
"Well, it's time for me to go, and we'll see you again if we have the chance."
"Kakashi-sensei..."
"Sayunara~"
Finally, the wind brought goodbye to her ears.
Reihi raised her hand to touch the top of her head, there was a big hand on it just now, as if there was still his warmth, she liked his gentle rubbing of the top of her head, which was a gentleness exclusive to Kakashi.
Lingxi saw the bell again, almost a year has passed since the last time, a year is not long, short is not short, but it is still possible to change a person.
It's not just the spirit rhino that has changed, but also the bell.
Suzu looks more mature, and indeed a real adult, like a blooming peony flower, graceful and luxurious, but there is pain in his eyes that cannot be hidden, which is inadvertently revealed.
At first, Lingxi didn't know if anyone would come out if he learned to bark kittens, after all, many times before, he couldn't see anyone sticking his head out from behind the wooden door, and even the wooden door was replaced with a new one because it was too shabby.
She came to the alley behind the washing house with the mentality of trying it out, like a milk cat who had been hungry for a long time and had no strength, "meow" one after another.
After seeing off the drinking guests, Suzu turned to go upstairs, but suddenly there was a kitten barking in his ears, this voice was not slow or urgent, and it was learned by people when he heard it.
One foot that was lifting up the stairs stopped like that, and she turned stiffly to look at the gray brick wall to the side.
She thought that she had misheard, there was an auditory hallucination, this voice has not been heard for almost a year, it is too normal for a person of her status to be abandoned by her friends, she thought that Lingxi was hindered by her identity and no longer be friends with her, for this, she was depressed for a long time, but now, she actually heard this familiar code voice again.
It was nap time, the prostitutes who had no guests to accompany were already resting, and those who had guests to greet were all in the rooms, and the courtyard was empty.
No one was watching, and Suzu almost ran to open the door.
Purple clothes, white cotton wrapped around the forearms of her two arms, she looked a lot taller, except for her still thin, a slightly thin appearance, nothing else had changed.
No, there are still obvious changes, it has become more beautiful, and the smile has become very bright, without the deputy who has put a brand new soul into the shell of a body named Lingxi.
"It's good that you finally came out to see me." Seeing the bell come out, Lingxi was a little surprised.
"I thought you would never come again..."
Lingxi laughed, everything before was gone, and the long separation made it even more precious to see each other again, and she stretched out her hand and handed Suzu a delicate small cloth bag.
"What is it?" Suzu's eyes widened.
"Gift."
"Why did you give me a gift?"
Lingxi laughed, "This is a gift to see the outside world. "
Suzu took it and opened it carefully, and I saw a comb, a sandalwood bun comb, carved with cherry blossoms, exquisite workmanship, it looked like it was made by a light craftsman, and it would look very good when inserted into the bun.
"This year, I was not in the sea of flowers, I went outside, went to many places, and learned a lot of things and truths. Suzu, the outside world is really vast..."The outside world
..."
Suzu once again looked up at the clouds in the sky, for a person like her who was in "chains", the sky above her head was the outside world, and the freely floating clouds were the outside world, which was an existence that could only be seen, but could not go.
Suddenly, Suzu coughed violently, coughing out of breath.
"Are you sick?" Lingxi patted her back for her.
Suzu shook his head, his face pale, "Maybe it's cold at night, and it will be fine in a few days." "
I haven't seen each other for a year, and the two people who meet again don't know what to say for a while, but they don't feel embarrassed, even if they lean side by side against the wall and watch the clouds, it is a very comfortable time.
"I often reminisce about when I was a child, when we were still here to shoot flower balls, catch stones, jump leather bands, as if it was yesterday." Thinking about that, a smile appeared at the corner of Suzu's mouth, these are the few happy memories in her tragic life, and many times it is these happy memories that allow her to survive in pain.
"Yes, no one wants to play with me, others are afraid of me and avoid me, only you are not afraid and are willing to be friends with me." Six years have passed, and nothing seems to have changed, I am still the same me, except for you, no one still wants to play with me, and I am still afraid of me. "But obviously there seems to be something different, what is specific, Lingxi can't say.
"Lingxi, you went out this time... Did you meet anyone?
Ling was already a delicate adult, and she could see the slight changes in the Spirit Rhino, and someone must have changed her in this Ling Rhino.
Kakashi is like a little secret that cannot be talked to outsiders, quietly hidden at the bottom of the girl's heart, she seals this secret in a glass jar, does not open it, even her best friend she does not want to share, this is a secret of her own, a secret that belongs to the throbbing of adolescent girls.
However, this secret really seems to be just a secret, and she feels that she may not be able to see the person in this secret again in this life, and it is difficult to hide her loss.
"If I have to say it, it should be that something has changed me, I will tell you..."
Kakashi looked at the two girls leaning against the mottled wall of the alley, talking and laughing, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart, he knew for the first time that Reihi had already had a heart for him since that time, he was the object of her first heartbeat, and now, he also wanted to be the object of her last heartbeat.
