If Goto Kazuri didn't have fun, then today would be meaningless.

"If I were Pochi, if I had pretended not to wake up just now, I would definitely have felt that I had the best memories in my life." Yamada Ryo chuckled.

"Well?!"

I don't know whether it was because he heard Yamada Ryo's words, or because he just woke up, Ichiri Gotou shivered and regained consciousness.

The first thing he did after regaining consciousness was to subconsciously pull up the sportswear on his chest.

"Shrine..." Goto Kazuri muttered.

After mentioning the shrine, the memory in his brain gradually turned back, going back to the night when he and Kotobuki Hikari saw the fireworks show together.

Compared to the seaside experience that made her feel a little embarrassed now, almost like a nightmare... the memories the shrine gave her were simply beautiful.

Very beautiful...

I already felt that my summer was completely over... Looking at it now, it seems that there is still hope?

"Okay! Then let's all go to Enoshima Shrine together!" Strong colorful light emitted from around Kita's body, dispelling all the darkness emanating from Goto Ichiri...

What traditional paladin...

"Uh-huh!"

Goto Kazuri thought of what he had experienced at the shrine, one of the few good memories in his life, and he also had some expectations in his heart.

Maybe, if it were at a shrine, I could really create beautiful summer memories?

......

...

"Ha...ha...haaa..." The poor and weak girl gasped with an ugly face. After exercising that was a bit excessive for her, Goto Ichiri's face turned a little pale.

Sweat dripped down the sides of his cheeks, dampening the bluestone that had obviously been renovated in modern times.

After changing into sportswear that was a bit heavy for summer, the heat dissipation pressure on the body was too great, and Goto Ichiri was already sweating profusely after just exercising.

There are green plants on both sides of the simple steps, so on the steps leading to the shrine, you can no longer feel too much salty sea breeze because of the green plants.

"Hey! Everyone, hurry up and follow us!"

Gotou Ichisato could vaguely hear Kita's voice, which was still full of energy.

The sound made Ichiri Goto, who was holding his knees and lowering his head to breathe, raised his head.

fundamental....

Kita’s figure is nowhere to be seen!

"No...I can't climb anymore..." Yamada Ryo said in a hoarse and weak voice.

"I'm being pulled further and further away by Kita..." Even Hongxia felt her legs were getting weak.

Logically speaking, the drummer should be the one with the strongest physical strength...

How could the two people from Shimokitazawa High School know that the Kita in front of them was a guy who could be recommended to participate in several different types of events at the sports meeting and win several first places in the end.

"What wonderful summer memories..."

Goto Kazuri said with great regret.

If you climb the steps here until your whole body is sore and you can't stand straight, this kind of summer memory... is definitely the kind of bad memory that will be buried in your memory and never be remembered!

He raised his head and looked at the torii at the end of the steps. Above the red torii was the sun radiating warmth in the sky.

I am simply a moth chasing the sun, seeking death, and can only live in a dark place...

I thought that the light in the distance was a happy future, but in fact chasing it would only make me miserable.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--...."

Goto Ichiri wanted to go crazy, wanted to scream, and wanted to vent his inner dissatisfaction through this meaningless behavior.

However, due to excessive physical fatigue, she really couldn't make a high-pitched voice.

"As long as we can...get there..."

Goto Kazuri shouted with all his strength, and suddenly felt that his brain was lacking oxygen.

The next moment, my legs felt weak and I wanted to fall down immediately.

puff...

"Wow--!"

However, the next moment Goto Ichiri's knees weakened and she lost her center of gravity, her body was supported by a reliable body.

"Ah...thank you...thank you..."

Gotou Ichisato's luck came from nowhere, and he suddenly stood up from Kotobuki Mitsuru, trying to stand up again.

"Ahh-!"

But maybe I used too much force,

Instead, Goto Ichisato leaned towards the bottom of the steps.

"Be careful!"

The young man grabbed Goto Ichiri's wrist at the last moment when she fell, supported her body, and pulled her into his arms.

"..."

The girl with crimson cheeks even forgot to breathe.

He was obviously out of breath just now, so he was breathing heavily.

"Light...it's really reliable."

Goto Ichiri raised his head and said.

The steep steps were like walking on flat ground for Qinbukiguang. After climbing at least dozens of meters, he still didn't blush or breath.

The heartbeat I felt on his body was not disordered at all.

"I... I just exercised a little more."

"Then why don't you go up earlier and catch up with Kita, Hongxia and the others."

Maybe it's because the weather is just a little too hot.

Gotou Kazuri unzipped his sportswear a little.

The weakest person in physical strength was left at the end of the team, but Kotobuki Mitsuru, who seemed to be in the best health, ended up at the end like himself, leaving him with a figure close at hand.

"I think Yili's state is very wrong. Really... If I hadn't noticed it just now, you would have fallen down by now. Be careful and don't show off."

Kotobuki Hikaru said worriedly and sighed.

"Are you waiting for me on purpose..." Goto Ichiri asked weakly.

"That's it."

I thought I could catch up a little bit, but in fact I just slowed down and waited for myself.

It’s too disappointing.

"If you get tired in the middle, it's okay to take a short rest." The young man said steadily.

“Is it more important than what’s at the end of the steps, or what’s felt along the way?”

Goto Ichiri suddenly said.

"...That's right."

This sentence sounded familiar to Kotobuki Hikari.

Isn't this similar to what I said to Gotou Ichiri before?

Unexpectedly, she would start talking to herself so soon.

"I can probably...understand the meaning of what Guang said."

The girl took a deep breath, and her disordered heartbeat gradually returned to regularity. Her expression, which was originally in pain from climbing the stairs, gradually eased into a smile that was a little more connected to the happy memories of summer.

Kotobuki felt that the hand she was holding now was holding her a little tighter.

"Speaking of which, when we were at the temple fair and went to the shrine together, we didn't feel like this at all."

Like this, I am out of breath from exhaustion.

"...I...I forgot."

Goto Yili said in embarrassment.

At that time, all I could remember was the memory of walking with Hikaru.

Climbing the stairs and the pressure I felt in the crowded sea were all forgotten.

Normally, people would remember painful memories more deeply, but instead she put the painful things aside.

After all, I already have enough painful memories in my life.

Instead, the happy memories impressed her even more.

Thinking of this, Goto Ichiri felt that much of the fatigue on his body had dissipated.

"Hey! Goto-san! Kotobuki-san! Come up quickly, are you two alone...?"

At the end of the steps in the distance, under the torii gate, Kita was wearing a dress and waving to this side. When he was urging, he saw two people holding hands and standing very close together on the steps, and his voice suddenly stopped.

"Ah...Kita, let's just wait a little longer." Ichichi Hongxia said with a smile.

It just so happens that I can take some more rest.

"Senior Ichichi, you dote on them too much. If you do this, I will really feel that we are redundant!" Kita said unwillingly.

"Aren't we superfluous in the first place?"

Yamada Ryo, who was sitting on the bluestone floor without scruples and leaning on the pillars of the torii, spoke.

"!"

Kita suddenly realized.

"Perhaps if only Hikari was there, Pochi would be more motivated." Yamada Ryo continued.

but......

If it weren't for us, they might still be playing at the beach now...

No, maybe I won’t go to the beach at all now.

"Woooo..."

I feel so unwilling...

After hearing the shouts from Kita above, Kotobuki Hikari and Goto Kazuri realized that they had stayed in the middle of the road for too long.

“Although the scenery along the way is worth stopping for, it wouldn’t be a problem if we stop here all the time.”

Kotobuki Mitsuru said, and then continued to climb the steps.

"Well...it's time to go find everyone."

Goto Ichisato noticed that Kotobuki Mitsuru, who continued to walk forward, did not let go of the hand holding him.

Maybe it's just because I'm weak, so I just want to give myself some help?

Even so, the girl herself did not let go.

The two of them moved forward to the end of the steps, one behind the other.

With the help from the front, Ichiri Goto felt a lot more relaxed when moving forward.

Just like the night before at the fireworks show, fatigue and pain were subconsciously forgotten because of happiness.

......

...

what.

Sorry.

I finished my business trip yesterday and drove all night when I came back.
