I have found out your real name

Chapter 274 So, childhood sweethearts move towards the future
Staying on the same page is easier than you think.

Perhaps it was because they had accumulated enough time to develop a tacit understanding, or perhaps because their athletic abilities were now beyond ordinary people. Soon Hikari was no longer content with moving forward slowly, but began to sprint like a sprint.

However, on the day she officially came on stage, she was paired with Zhenyi, who had mediocre physical fitness, so I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to achieve such an effect. In the final analysis, it was because the pair was not very coordinated, mainly in terms of size.

"Xiao Wu, thinking evilly is also a crime."

The girl's cold voice came from a short distance away, and she bumped Li Wu from the side, neither lightly nor hard.

"No, I wasn't thinking of anything rude. I was just too suspicious."

Why is there another mind-reader appearing next to him!If this continues, thought crime may really become a crime. For the sake of the stability of human society, it should be prohibited to listen to other people's voices without authorization.

Doubtful about his explanation, Hikari slowed down until they both came to a stop.

"Is it here today?"

Li Wu took the opportunity to ask.

After hesitating for a while, Guang nodded.

So he took the initiative to squat down and untie the shackles between the two of them, and she raised her feet to remove the cloth strip.

When he stood up, he happened to meet the eyes of the girl who was staring at him.

"Let's go."

The two of them had unknowingly run along the river for a distance that could not be called short. The street lamp they had stood below when they set out now looked like a distant lighthouse, holding up a hazy halo.

Guang stuffed the snatched cloth into her trousers pocket and walked briskly along the way she came. A small piece of cloth poked out and jumped up and down with her movements.

She suddenly stopped and grabbed Li Wu's sleeve.

"Xiao Wu, it's the invisible boundary!"

"Are you imitating the heroine in any anime? You are quite similar in terms of height and never taking care of your hair."

"You mean I'm a fake?"

"That's not what I meant... Forget it, where is it? Since it says it is there, it must be there."

Satisfied with his knowledgeable response, Guang pointed to the quietly flowing river below the embankment: "There."

She was really right.

The sparkling water reflects the moonlight hanging from the cloudless night sky, giving it a dreamy color. From the embankment, it looks like a magnificent strip of light woven by the traffic lights passing by on the road.

"Go down and have a look."

She ran down the river embankment on her own initiative, stood at the edge of the flowing light and waved to Li Wu.

He followed and slid down the embankment with clusters of greenery like a skateboard.

Guang's eyes lit up: "This way of appearing is a bit handsome."

She ran up and slid again herself.

"I suddenly felt very sorry."

Looking at the girl who landed gracefully, Li Wu said suddenly.

Guang cast a questioning look.

"After experiencing the last incident, haven't you completely awakened... What should I call it? The power of the brave?"

He thought about the appropriate words, "When I felt like that just now, if it was the previous light, I might have lost my balance and fallen. Then I could rush over to catch you, or at least help you up after you fell to the ground. , but now I will know in my heart that there will be no problems, but it will cause some feelings similar to loneliness."

Guang thought for a moment and showed a frightened expression: "Xiao Wu wants to see me embarrassed? Shake my S?"

"Hey, don't throw dirty water on me."

Li Wu corrected, "I also know that this statement is too self-aware, but it may be a bit like parents who find that their children are independent. Although they will be happy for Guang, they also have a sense of loneliness that they don't need themselves."

He gave a warm look to the girl who was thinking hard about the meaning of his words.

"Parents? Parents...parents?!"

Guang took a step back in even more horror, almost falling into the water, and raised his hands to make a cross, "No, no, no, no, you must not attack Xizi!"

Li Wu almost couldn't breathe.

"Who is going to take action! Learn metaphors again from elementary school! And you are not allowed to call your mother by her first name!"

He took three steps at a time and rushed forward. He raised his fingers and struck the guy's head three times in a row.

"You said it yourself and caused misunderstanding!"

Guang, who did not dodge, covered her head and protested. Li Wu stopped beating and held her head down.

"So, I think I actually relied on the light before, enjoying the feeling of being asked for help by you, and building a relationship similar to symbiosis... If you want to summarize the time we spent together before, maybe it is more appropriate to say this."

During the third seal, Hikaru confessed his feelings about their relationship, and he felt that he needed to respond accordingly.

"...I'm not relying on Xiao Wu."

The girl whose head was touched turned away embarrassedly and looked at the shimmering river next to her.

You didn't say that before.

"That means I am unilaterally relying on Guang's care. Thank you very much."

But of course there is no need to cling to things and words from the past now.

Because after settling the past, they are about to take steps toward the future.

Li Wu let go: "As a result, Guang actually thought earlier than me that we need to change the way we get along."

"No, it was actually Xiao Wu who reminded me, and then he also learned a lesson from the other me."

Hikaru corrected, "That's why I finally made up my mind."

She realized the reason why the other party brought up this topic.

The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of flowing water remained. Beside the footpath on the embankment, only the white-bone-like branches of the trees that had lost their leaves were left, swaying slightly under the illumination of the street lamps.

The wind gently rolled up the girl's hair hanging in front of her forehead, making her almost nervously close her eyes.

However, Hori Rinko finally opened her eyes wide and stared straight ahead.

"According to the previous agreement, I will listen carefully to Xiao Wu's answer."

The answer to the confession driven by many factors.

"Well, then I—"

"Wait a moment."

She suddenly raised her palms to stop his words, and spoke intermittently, "We have to make another agreement."

"Even if Xiao Wu gave an answer of rejection."

Guang tried his best to spit out the words he didn't want to hear, and choked and covered his chest, "I will not run away from home willfully like last time, nor will I do anything to harm Xingchuan-san."

Because I saw myself taking that situation to an extreme, and because I actually experienced the impact it had on not only the person I like, but also other people.

She conscientiously refuses to be reduced to the same individual as another possibility of herself.

"So, preventing that future doesn't need to be factored in."

Hori Rinko will not deviate from the current path forward again.

She smiled: "I won't really take Xiao Wu to the afterlife, but if I fail this time, I will still pester you, and then I will once again snatch the person I like from the annoying witch in an upright manner."

This is her second confession.

The small fists of her childhood sweetheart pinched the trousers she wore today, and put wrinkles on them that seemed to represent her mood. She looked up with her delicate and lovely face as if expecting, but also as if she didn't want to continue listening. That familiar look It was probably the first time that an unfamiliar expression appeared on his face.

Despite this, Li Wu was still as helpless as before.

"I also promise you this agreement."

"Then by the way, you should also agree to the lover's contract."

Light said jokingly. "I can't break up with Aoi Hoshikawa."

The bright moon didn't seem to want to hear the next words, and a thick cloud came out of nowhere to cover itself.

"She is a fool, often inconsistent, occasionally arrogant, and sometimes resorts to violence."

"However, she is also kind and cheerful, and gives her feelings wholeheartedly... No, there is no point in saying this. What's more important is that I fell in love with her, her beautiful face, long black hair, and the first thing I saw. A magical girl who fights fiercely with monsters.”

"No need to say any more, Xiao Wu."

Light trembled and closed her eyes.

In the end, she couldn't keep looking straight ahead.

"No, you must keep talking."

Li Wu interrupted her almost rudely, "I can't say I don't like Guang."

"……what?"

She blankly suspected that she had heard wrongly.

"Two likes are the same, or shouting loudly that you are all my wings... Such beautiful words are only suitable for those who are truly devoted to the one they love."

He wanted to use more despicable and shameless words to describe his wish.

"If it were me, it would be impossible to imagine a future apart from light."

As long as the conversation is opened, the following content can be spoken smoothly, "After the last incident, I have been thinking about one thing: if the two worlds intersected at that time, you were really taken away, rather than based on possibility. What will happen if the light that goes to another world is split into another form and disappears, or even never comes back?"

"I can't imagine what I looked like at that time - just like I can't imagine an ordinary human being who doesn't need air to survive."

"Am I air? It sounds cheap."

Guang curled his lips unhappily, but finally looked at Li Wu again.

“You are not only the air, but also the water that is boiled every morning, three meals a day, the seeds we planted together in the snow in the yard in winter, the baseball gloves we exchanged, the stars and operas we watched together. "

It would be great if you could simply formulate logical words like saying the enemy's real name.

But now, he can only talk in a disorganized manner.

"I don't know whether what emerged when I was with you was the love for the opposite sex or the affection accumulated bit by bit with my family... Because we first met too early, we may never know the answer to this question. .”

Li Wu recalled the girl crossing the balcony on a snowy day, and the memory of that time was still vivid.

"But now I am sure that if you are erased from my past, it will leave a huge void that cannot be filled; if I can't be with you in the future, I can't accept the thought of light leaving." Life."

Now, he was the one who picked up the chains and tried to tie her up.

"The seed buried in the snow did not sprout and take root, but if the days we have experienced can give birth to anything..."

He paused to clarify his feelings, "I think at least now I won't confuse it with family affection."

"As my childhood sweetheart, I need you, Hikari."

"As a member of the opposite sex, I like you, Horirin-san."

"If possible, I would like to sign your proposed lover's contract and change the term to forever."

Guang looked at him motionless, and the sound of running water seemed to come from a very far away place, leaving the two of them behind, leaving them in the silent place.

She took a deep breath and suppressed her sobs.

"Scumbag Xiaowu! Harem man! Prince Bo! Lugia! (Note: Poseidon from the Pokémon series)"

"There are two obviously strange titles mixed in here, right?!"

Even if he was scolding someone, he still couldn't figure out the brain circuit of his childhood sweetheart.

"The lovers' contract will not allow the existence of multiple parties!"

Guang Nao awkwardly stepped forward and held his arm, "If you really like me that much, break up with someone like Xingchuan!"

"People also have names...and I can't do it."

She was rubbing her teeth together, as if she was about to bite his hand at the next moment.

"Does Xiao Wu think she will allow it?"

"I'll tell her—already, I should say."

Guang let go of his hand somewhat unexpectedly.

"Can that troublesome person be explained away?"

Li Wu suppressed the desire to complain about a certain two words.

She crossed her arms and began to think.

"How are you going to fulfill the lover's contract? How are you going to be together forever?"

"Me, Aoi, and you...but, maybe including Makoto and Airisa."

The further he went on, the more he felt guilty and his voice became lower and lower.

Guang looked at him with eyes that were cold enough to freeze the rushing river beside him.

"Sure enough, Xiao Ai is too; but the president...should he launch an assassination when he and she are together?"

She muttered something quite terrifying, and Li Wu decided to remind Shiratori Mai Sports Festival to be ready to launch a space jump at any time when he goes back tonight.

"So, what's Hikaru's answer?"

He first turned the conversation to something between the two of them.

"Didn't Xiao Wu answer me?"

"The situation now is different from that then, so this is my confession to the light, and you should agree to it."

"What answer do you want me to give?"

"Of course I do."

Guang reached out and touched his chest, feeling the beating of his heart.

"I...I said the same thing to Xiao Ai before."

She said softly, "I also need Xiao Wu, so your request is too cunning."

"We are childhood sweethearts who grew up together, and there is no way to separate from each other - this is obviously the same for me."

She moved her palm down, away from the other person's chest, and overlapped his hand.

"Even if I don't know if I will regret it in the future, I can't refuse now."

"……sorry."

"I don't want to apologize."

Light shook his head.

"It's like that baseball glove and the ice cream we ate together. It's proof that I want to sign a love contract."

She smiled slyly, "Seize the time now and enjoy your rights to the fullest. This is the law that people on this side of the invisible boundary live by."

She raised her face, and her eyes seemed to sparkle, reminiscent of fireflies flying among the summer grass.

"I thought you had advanced it while you were in the hospital."

"That time was that time, and this time is this time. Will Xiao Wu refuse to fulfill the contract?"

He held the girl's familiar, slender shoulders and leaned down to face the face he had seen countless times.

"No, I'm the cutest, middle school sweetheart, and the best childhood sweetheart in the world."

Those trees that had lost all their leaves now did not look like gloomy white bones. Instead, they looked like umbrellas set up on the roadside, quietly opening their branches swaying in the wind to protect the two overlapping figures.
