Summer is coming soon, and the temperature emitted by the sun is getting higher and higher.

Even if the earth welcomed a monster yesterday, you still have to go to the classes and school you should go to today.

But summer vacation is coming soon, which also means the headache of final exams is coming.

Don't even think about escaping. You still have to submit your academic paper.

"You're really working hard." Hasegawa couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the thousands-word paper that was sent to his mailbox.

"It's okay." Chiba Xing scratched his head and said with a smile.

"So, what you mean is that you won't come to school anymore?" As his mentor, how could Hasegawa Takeshi not guess this guy's thoughts, but this time he probably knew some of the reasons, "EAD is very busy

Well, after the monster appears."

Chiba Yuki smiled and said, "So, please, teacher, I know you can help me get the remaining course credits~"

"I'm really defeated by you. I should be more like a normal student."

After this guy was assigned to his class, he had done this kind of thing many times; not to mention the entire Sakuragaoka University, even the entire class, everyone who knew that they had a classmate named Chiba Yuki was probably very worried.

few.

Because this guy actually sits in the classroom and listens to lectures only a handful of times.

But what can you do? Even if he doesn't fail the exam at all, he still ranks among the best.

At this time, everyone will know that there is such a guy in the school.

Maybe, this is genius?

...

Next to Sakuraoka University is a leisure park built on the campus. Parents from nearby accommodation areas usually play with their children.

The weather has been very hot recently, but it is still a nice sunny day. However, there are not many people lounging in the park at this time.

After Chiba Yuki left school, he casually glanced at the park as he passed by.

Then I saw a man standing blankly on the edge of the pond in the park.

The man wearing a gray T-shirt with messy hair was staring straight at the pond, motionless.

To be honest, the water in the park pond is not very deep, and there are some fish, all for ornamental purposes.

Moreover, the possibility of being rescued here is particularly high.

Chiba Xing looked at him on the roadside for a while, then thought about it and walked over.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The man seemed startled by the sound, then turned to look at Chiba Xing.

Upon closer inspection, I found that this man was even more sloppy. The dark circles on his face were particularly serious. He looked as if he hadn't slept in several days.

"You... look pretty good, you look a lot like my leading actor..." The man looked at Chiba Yuki for a while and finally said.

Chiba Yuki: "..."

"What are you doing?" he asked again.

"I can't think of it." As if something had been touched, the man immediately hugged his head and squatted down, showing pain on his face.

"Can't think of anything?" Chiba Yuki asked.

"Ah, what should I do? The deadline is the day after tomorrow, and I really can't think of what to write next!" The man began to grab his hair hard, with a tangled look on his face.

"...Excuse me." Chiba Yuki turned around and left expressionlessly.

The man didn't care about his behavior, maybe he didn't even care about who was talking to him just now.

After Chiba Xing left, the man grabbed his hair and began to stare blankly at the pond again. Looking at his reflection on the water, he murmured: "Strange, why do you always want to write him to death?"

Ikuta is a novelist and a romance novelist who specializes in writing about girls' love.

He himself is quite famous in this circle, and has published many love novels that are loved by many young girls. He is also known as a love guide that "can see the true sweetness".

Yes, Ikuta only writes Happy End. He is a sweet romance novelist!

But what should I do if I always want to kill the protagonist lately?

As soon as he picks up a pen and writes, he becomes abusive, causing the campus love comedy between the male and female protagonists to instantly turn into a misunderstanding and bloody love tragedy.

"This doesn't work. It will definitely be scolded by readers. There are already many comments in protest."

Ikuta squatted on the edge and lowered his head for a long time. A bunch of messy plots passed through his mind, making him only irritated. Finally, he got up and left the park helplessly.

Unable to think of a plot, he had to find a way to deal with the editor who urged him to write the manuscript.

And after he left, the shallow bottom of the pond, which was sparkling in the sunlight, suddenly lit up with an imperceptible red light, which disappeared in an instant.

Chiba Xing, who had already walked to the street, turned back and looked in the direction of the park. He frowned slightly, "What a strange man."

What he thought he was going to do, but it turned out to be a waste of his time.

...

Night soon came again, and the city changed from hustle and bustle. After darkness fell, the artificial lights came on.

Time passes slowly, some people are still partying, and some have already fallen asleep.

This year's midsummer is hotter than ever.

The red sun hung in the sky without a cloud, constantly radiating its heat.

The twisted sun flames fell down, blurring the vision.

The park was unexpectedly quiet, with only the cicadas on the trees calling out, which seemed very feeble.

The rusty swing made an unpleasant "creak" sound as it swayed, and the sunlight made this place extremely unreal.

The girl was sitting on the edge of the pond, staring at her distorted reflection on the water. Suddenly she seemed to sense something, and she turned around happily.

"Ikuta-kun, you are here!"

"I'm sorry, Akiko, for keeping you waiting." Ikuta wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt that it was unusually hot. It was so hot that he felt that the people in front of him were blurry.

"No, no! I'm very happy if Ikuta-kun can come." The girl lowered her head slightly, showing a bit of shyness.

Ikuta wiped his sweat again and said, "Akiko, where should we go next?"

Akiko was stunned instead. She was a little confused and said: "What's wrong? Can't we just stay here?"

"Eh? Here?" It was Ikuta's turn to be stunned. He then smiled and said, "Well, actually we can also go to places like shopping malls..."

"No?" Akiko looked at him with a sad expression and said, "I just want to be alone with Ikuta-kun..."

"It's not impossible, it's just..." It's too hot! However, Ikuta looked at the girl who seemed to be about to cry, and he quickly said, "Okay! Let's chat here."

"Yeah! Ikuta-kun, you are such a good person!" The girl burst into laughter instantly.

She pulled Ikuta to sit down, and they sat side by side on the edge of the pond. In the deserted park, there was only two people chatting.

Being basked in the scorching sun, Ikuta wiped his sweat from time to time, talked to the girl, and looked at the bright smile on her face, and suddenly felt that it wasn't that hot anymore.

The sparkling water reflected the two figures.

"Hey, Ikuta-kun, actually I..." As they chatted, the girl's originally happy face suddenly darkened.

"Akiko, what's wrong with you?" Ikuta looked at her worriedly.

Akiko looked up at him, frowning slightly, and she said softly: "Ikuta-kun, this is probably the last time we will meet."

"What?! Why is this happening, Akiko, don't leave me!" These words scared Ikuta and he grabbed her hand tightly.

"Ikuta-kun, don't be like this..." Akiko cried with tears in her eyes, "I was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and we can no longer be together."

"No! Why would such a thing happen, Akiko, I don't believe it!" Ikuta looked at her in shock, his eyes full of pain.

However, Akiko just cried and shook her head. She took off Ikuta's hand, stood up, and said, "Ikuta-kun, that's it. I'm very happy today. Thank you. We will never...never do it again."

Met."

Akiko's figure gradually blurred, moving further and further away in the dazzling sunlight.

"No! I don't want you to leave me!"

It only takes half a minute to go from a sweet atmosphere to a life-or-death farewell.

Under the scorching sun, the quiet park was deserted, and a red light could be seen flashing at the bottom of the sparkling pond.

...

When there is nothing major, EAD's work is actually quite easy. Around nine o'clock in the evening, most of the staff go off work and take a break.

"Beep beep beep—"

"Something unusual?!"

"In Japan."

"Nonsense!" Chiba Yuki, who was holding a book and reading, immediately moved his chair and moved himself in front of the operating table.

It's just that the radar panel that was originally being monitored was now in harmony, as if the siren that had just been sounded was an illusion.
