Chen Mo shook his head noncommittally, and did not speak with his cigarette holder in his mouth.
One is a vegetable who doesn't know if there is any hope of regaining consciousness in this life. Living is worse than being dead, but at least she still has some hope of waking up.
One is an HIV patient who struggles with the disease day and night and is about to die at a young age, but at least someone is by her side now.
To be honest, Chen Mo didn't think she had anything to envy.
Both of them are poor people abandoned by fate, but the most pitiful one is himself.
Because he has no ability to save these two people, no matter how unwilling he is, he can only watch them drift like duckweed in the wind under the hands of fate.
But, pitiful... Is he really pitiful?
No, he himself was precisely the least worthy of pity, if that be the case.
[All unfavorable status quo is caused by the lack of ability of the parties. 】
His weakness and his lack of ability are the real root cause of these two girls' misfortune.
Therefore, he is not worthy of pity.
There seemed to be a mirror in front of Chen Mo, which reflected his powerless ugly state at the moment.
What a hideous face, how ugly and humble...
Chapter 81 The Sword of the Heart
After March with the warmth of early spring, when it should have entered the warm spring, on an afternoon a few days before April, the cold air from the Sea of Okhotsk descended on the Kanto area, which was inconsistent with the season. heavy snow.
Transparent, hexagonal crystals fluttered down, eventually piling up on the streets into thick, heavy snow.This sudden snowfall was beyond everyone's expectations. The Meteorological Bureau adjusted its broadcast preparations for the next day overnight. The orange cold wave warning centered on the Kanto region and spread to other surrounding administrative provinces.
Snow in April made the already warm weather return to winter in just a few days.
"Snapped--!"
In the Kiritani Family Kendo Gym, Chen Mo lightly parried the slashing attack that Kiritani Suguha swung at a high speed, but after withdrawing the sword and retreating, she did not rush over again, but showed a somewhat absent-minded expression, her eyes blank staring at behind Chen Mo.
Noticing Kiritani Suguha's abnormality, Chen Mo frowned slightly, turned his wrist, and the wooden sword hit the ground hard, making a heavy hitting sound.
"Xiao Zhi, don't be distracted!"
Called back by Chen Mo's stern voice, Kiritani Suguha said a little excitedly: "Teacher, snow! It's snowing!"
"What snow? It's almost April now, Xiaozhi, what are you talking about in your sleep..."
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly, and at the same time turned around casually to look outside the Kendo Hall, but the next moment, he was suddenly stunned.
Snow……
Pieces of small snowflakes fluttered like elves, falling from the sky.
"Look, look, I'm not wrong, it's really snow!"
Just when Chen Mo was staring at the snowflakes in a daze, Kiritani Suguha walked up to him and said with a slightly excited tone: "Teacher, let's go out and see the snow!"
"What snow are you looking at? Have you never seen snow?"
Flatly rejecting Kiritani Suguha's proposal, Chen Mo said with a cold face: "Don't talk about snow, even if there is gold falling outside, you have to stay here and practice your sword obediently. If a swordsman can't even do self-restraint, why don't you What are you talking about against people?"
Having said that, he suddenly put away the wooden sword and walked out of the Kendo Hall.
"Teacher, where are you going?"
"Go out and see the snow."
"Then I..."
Turning his head to the side, he glanced at Kiritani Suguha's ready-to-movement expression, Chen Mo kept walking, and said lightly: "Swing the sword, two hundred times, each sword must achieve the unity of spirit, energy and spirit, and the movements must not be out of shape. , when will you finish your swing, and when will you be allowed to come out of the kendo gym?"
"Eh?!!"
The girl's dissatisfied voice gradually pulled away behind him, and Chen Mo was not at all worried about whether she would be lazy. Whether it was based on the portrayal of Kiritani Suguha's character in the original book, or the understanding brought about by spending time together in recent months, he knew that the other party was not Of course, the kind of person who would be opportunistic is even less likely to steal and play tricks.
After walking out of the kendo hall, standing on the edge of the corridor at the entrance of the kendo hall, Chen Mo raised his head and looked at the vast white sky. Countless snow elves fluttered down one after another, stretching their palms out of the eaves. After a few seconds, the palms spread Come back with a subtle cooling sensation.
Chen Mo withdrew his hand, watching the whole process of the thin layer of hexagonal ice crystals melting rapidly in his palm, his eyes became a little dazed for a while.
He is not ignorant of this snow.
When the snow stops, the girl named Konno Wataki will completely pass away.
What should come will always come, although she has already made preparations to see her off at the end of life, but this day has come faster than Chen Mo imagined.
"Woo-woo-"
As the snowflakes fell, the cold air with strong convection passed through the corridor under the eaves, making a sound like weeping and whimpering.
"Woo! Woo!"
Chen Mo tilted his ears, and with his physique up to hundreds of points, he could clearly hear the sound of the wind cutting the wooden sword coming from the kendo hall behind him.
Above the sky, thick clouds covered the sun and the blue sky. Under the sky, everything seemed to be very peaceful, but at the same time, it was so noisy that it made people feel a little irritated.
"惊な天気だ..." (nasty weather)
This is the first time Chen Mo has experienced the benefits of Japanese. At least this sentence will feel very natural when spoken in Japanese, but it will be a little artificial if spoken in Mandarin.
Putting away his boring emotions, he turned around and re-entered the kendo hall, Kiritani Suguha's kendo teaching course is not over yet.
