Almost half an hour later, Hoshino Aihime and Kiritani Tetsuya arrived at the door of Miyajima Yui's ward.

"When you go in later, just stay there. Unless my friend asks you a question, try to talk as little as possible."

Before entering the ward, the girl turned around and gave serious instructions to Kiritani Tetsuya, who was still confused.

"So why did you bring me here?" Kiritani Tetsu couldn't help but ask again.

In his impression, no one he knew lived in this hospital, and Hoshino Aihime had not made it clear to him the purpose of coming to the hospital this time or the specific person to visit.

Although Kiritani Tetsuya wanted to ask Hoshino Aihime this question more than once on the way to the hospital, the girl seemed a little preoccupied at the time, so he gave up the idea of ​​asking.

Anyway, the only thing he knows so far is that there should be a friend who is important to Hoshino Aihime living inside, otherwise she would not have brought him here specifically.

"I will tell you if I have the chance in the future. Anyway, just do what I say now."

Looking at Kiritani Tetsuya's puzzled expression, Hoshino Aihime pondered for a moment and said.

Then seeing the other party silently nodding in agreement, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, then stretched out her hand to push open the door, and walked in from the outside first, with Kiritani Tetsuya following closely behind.

After walking in with Hoshino Aihime, Kiritani Tetsuya realized that the entire ward was a bit empty. Most of them were clean and tidy furniture and furnishings. There was only a girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old sitting on top of the ward. At this moment

He was peeling an apple the size of his fist with a fruit knife.

Perhaps because she has been in the hospital for a long time, this girl's delicate face lacks a little bit of the rosiness that normal people have, but it still gives people a feeling of innocence and sweetness, even more so for Tetsuya Kiritani.

An inexplicable feeling of familiarity.

Just the first time he saw the girl, Kiritani Tetsuya always felt that she was somewhat similar to someone he met recently.

"Sister Ai Ji, you are here."

Just when Kiritani Tetsuya was comparing the image of the girl in front of him with the image in his memory, the girl named Miyajima Yui also noticed Hoshino Aihime walking in the front, and her right hand holding a fruit knife immediately

He stopped and said hello.

Of course, after saying hello, Miyajima Yui naturally noticed Kiritani Tetsuya behind Hoshino Aihime, her bright eyes blinked immediately, and then her eyes stayed on Kiritani Tetsuya.

Faced with the girl's long gaze, Kiritani Tetsuya gradually felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but touch his cheek with his hand and said, "What, is there something on my face?"

Hearing Kiritani Tetsuya's question, Miyajima Yui looked away slightly, then shook her head, with a sweet smile on her face, and answered inexplicably.

"No, my brother's face is very clean. I just want to take a closer look at what the luckiest person in the world looks like."

"Uh, what do you mean?" Tetsuya Kiritani asked next.

"Cough~"

However, before Miyajima Yui could answer, Hoshino Aihime coughed lightly at the side, interrupting the sudden conversation between the two.

Seeing that both of them were quiet at the same time, Hoshino Aihime looked at Kiritani Tetsuya who was still confused about the situation, and said slowly.

"Let me introduce you. This girl is the person I mentioned before. Her name is Miyajima Yui. She is also a friend I just met."

After saying this, Hoshino Aihime looked at Yui Miyajima who looked expectantly on the hospital bed.

"And Yui, this is the one I mentioned to you a few days ago. His name is Kiritani Tetsuya."

After Hoshino Aiki finished the introduction, Kiritani Tetsuya was about to speak, but Yui Miyajima in front of him spoke first.

"You are Brother Kiritani, right? I asked Sister Aiji to bring you here. In fact, I stay here by myself most of the time, so I want to make as many new friends as possible during this period."

After saying this, Miyajima Yui slowly bent her upper body and took out a small gadget from the drawer next to her with her temporarily free left hand.

"As our first meeting, I specially prepared a special gift for my brother."

Yui Miyajima said with enthusiasm on her little face, and then handed a small amulet-like thing in her palm to Tetsuya Kiritani.

"I asked my mother to go to Kanda Shrine to buy this love guardian in the past few days. I hope it can bring good luck to my brother in the coming days."

"this……"

Looking at the dark red guard that Yui Miyajima placed in the center of his palm, Tetsuya Kiritani hesitated for a moment, and did not immediately reach out to take it. Instead, he turned to look at Hoshino Aihime, wanting to ask for his opinion.

"Since she gave it to you specifically, then you should accept it."

After saying that, Hoshino Aihime secretly sent a look to Kiritani Tetsuya, as if telling him not to keep looking in her direction.

After receiving Hoshino Aihime's signal, Kiritani Tetsuya immediately reached out and took the guard from the girl in front of him without any further hesitation, and at the same time said a simple thank you.

Carefully putting the guard handed over by Miyajima Yui into the pocket of his pants, Kiritani Tetsuya also followed the example of the girl next to him, picked up the small white round stool not far away, and sat down next to Miyajima Yui

Come down.

"Let me help you."

After both of them sat down, Hoshino Aihime spoke softly and took the initiative to take the fruit knife and the half-cut apple from Miyajima Yui's hand.

Miyajima Yui did not refuse, and obediently handed the thing in her hand to the girl in front of her, saying sweetly.

"Thank you sister."

After that, Miyajima Yui, who was free, turned to Kiritani Tetsuya, who was sitting on a stool looking a little idle, and took the initiative to chat with him.

During this process, Miyajima Yui was mainly asking questions, and Kiritani Tetsuya was basically on the side of answering the questions. After all, Hoshino Aihime had previously asked him to speak as little as possible here, so after answering the girl's questions, he basically

No additional words were said.

Most of the chat content is about his daily study life and hobbies outside of study. It seems that these are the things that Yui Miyajima, a girl who has been out of school for a long time, is more interested in.

It wasn't until Hoshino Aiki peeled the apple and cut it into small pieces that the conversation between the two stopped temporarily.

"Brother Kiritani, do you want to eat?"

After taking the small pieces of apples that Hoshino Aiki put on the plate, Miyajima Yui did not forget to ask Kiritani Tetsuya.

But before Kiritani Tetsuya had time to answer, the girl had already taken the lead and picked up a piece with a small fork on the edge of the plate, then stretched it out in front of Kiritani Tetsuya and said with a smile on her lips.
