messenger from the wasteland

Chapter 206 Unequal Exchange

It should be another year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The pink and white petals are blown off the branches by the wind, flying in the air, flying over the lampposts on the side of the road, flying over the shoulders of pedestrians, and falling on the small road in the morning.

Students in school uniforms walked side by side, among the flying petals, chatting with their peers with their schoolbags. The morning of the new semester is just like every year before, ordinary and quiet, with a touch of excitement Comfortable calm.

In the crowd, a girl walked by with a bag. She had long black hair hanging down her waist, shaking it from time to time with the breeze blowing by the roadside.

She was wearing a very ordinary blue and white school uniform, and she looked like she should be a student of Xicheng High School.

The girl is very cute, at least the passers-by think so, she has the vitality that every girl at this age should have, with a faint smile on her face, she seems to be friendly to everyone.

Her footsteps are so brisk, making those who look at her feel better unconsciously.

If you don't say it, no one will believe it. A year ago, she was still a vicious woman.

The weather in early spring was still a bit cold, Yagami Chenglan wore a scarf around her neck, which was knitted for her at the beginning of winter, although the appearance was not flattering, but fortunately, the effect of keeping warm was good.

The morning air is humid, with a slight coolness, and the fragrance of cherry blossoms, which makes people want to take a deep breath.

The slightly cool feeling refreshed the brain that had just woken up, Yagami Chenglan patted his cheek, and walked towards the school.

Today, we have to work hard.

She filled out her volunteer application, and in the last six months of high school, she will be admitted to her favorite university.If it was her a year ago, she probably wouldn't even dare to think about such a thing.

Who should I thank for this? Yagami Chenglan inexplicably thought of the guy who corrected her homework every night, and secretly hooked the corner of his mouth.

It may be of some use to her, but the main thing is to work hard on my own.

She wants to be admitted to university for the first time, and when she comes back next time, she has to be scared.

That's right, the first month of the new year is gone, one night three weeks ago, the first month after the new year.

At the beginning, Shimizu and her three went to the shrine to pray together as a family.

It was also that night that Chu took away the evil in her body and left this world.

Fortunately for Iori Chenglan, when she parted, she finally expressed her heart to Chu.

You are very important to me, so you must remember me, if you forget, I will never forgive you.

That's what she said to Chu that night.

What was Chu's answer? Before she heard it, Chu had already disappeared.

However, forgive her for not daring not to agree.

Chu's sudden departure, the public said that she went to a foreign country, and what she did specifically, Yagami Chenglan couldn't explain clearly, she just said that she didn't know.

What I know is that Chu left her a sum of money, which is enough for her to use until she graduates from university and can support herself.

On the third day after Chu left, Shinji Koichi came to Yagami Chengran.

At that time, the man was just smoking, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked preoccupied. He seemed to want to comfort the girl, but he didn't know what to say.

Iori Chenglan could tell that he was also a clumsy guy, just like his former self.

In the end, Xinzhi Xiaoyi just left her a word.

If you have any difficulties, come to me, anything is fine, this is a promise of mine.

Yagami Chengran didn't know who this was his promise to. All she could see was Xinzhi Xiaoyi's unusually solemn expression.

Maekawa Shimizu likes to mess around as always, after learning that Chu had left, she just hugged Yagami Chengran and said with a smile, from now on, only the two of us will depend on each other.

She and Yashen Chenglan had been laughing and arguing for a long time, so Yashen Chenglan didn't see her slightly lonely look.

······
When I arrived at the school, it happened to be 07:30 in the morning. The students were talking about the new head teacher and physical education teacher, while Yagami Chengran was sitting quietly in the corner, smiling and looking out the window.

I don't know when she developed this habit, she likes to sit in a quiet place and watch this lively world quietly.

That's a very special feeling too, isn't it?

The window was half open, and a gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing a cherry blossom petal into the window, and landed on Yagami Chengran's table.

Iori Chenglan lowered his eyes, looked at the light-colored petals, and smiled slightly.

She knew she had been completely changed.

In the beginning, meeting you was really the luckiest thing in my life.It's a pity that in order to meet you, I used up all the luck in my life, so that I no longer have any excuses for you to stay.

Thinking about it, Yashen Chenglan stretched her neck, pinched the petals on the table, and put them back out of the window.

With the wind, the petals gradually drifted away, to a distance that Iori Chenglan could not see.

Are you still jealous?
No, because I already have the best memories in this world.

······
In the dark red wasteland, Chu fell into a wasteland.

She has just experienced the punishment of jealousy, how should I put it, she feels that she is almost used to these punishments.

These pains that could not be deepened seemed to have gradually numb her.She even began to feel at peace in the face of these punishments.

It can only be said that the adaptability of life is really strong, and she will not die at first, which is destined to be able to adapt to any dangerous situation sooner or later.

This may be another reason for her to continue to bear the crime. She can bear the pain that others cannot bear.

"At the beginning, there is one thing that I need to tell you."

At this time, the voice in the sky found her.

This made Chu a little surprised, because if there was nothing important, the voice seldom came to her.

"What's the matter?" The body, which had been moving for the first time and gradually regained consciousness, sat up.

"You have nothing left to pay for your sins, so I may take away a copy of your memory as a price, I hope you can understand."

Sin needs a price, and there is not much price to pay at the beginning.

But in theory, stripping memory might not be a bad thing for the messenger, because there are always some things that are better to forget than to remember.

But when he heard that a copy of his own memory was going to be taken away, Chu panicked.

She shook her head for the first time.

"No, no memory."

She rejected the voice, one of the rare times.

This made the voice stunned for a while, before asking again: "Then what are you willing to pay?"

After thinking about it for a long time, I looked at the sky blankly.

"What else do I have?"

"Memory, feelings..." The voice pondered for a while, as if it wanted to list some things that had just started, but after a long time, it could only speak slowly.

"And that's all."

"Then, take a share of my feelings." Chu Taitao replied after hesitation.

This instead made the voice bewildered, it didn't understand, because no one had ever made an initial choice between the two.

"Is it worth it?" the voice asked, the two are not equal, memory can be recreated, and feelings, if lost, will not be possessed again.

Chu Chu didn't answer, she had already made a choice, so it didn't matter whether it was worth it or not.

The voice paused for a while, and asked again: "Then what are you doing?"

"One, promise..."

Chu raised his head, facing the sky, as if facing the voice, and replied.
