【Takahashi House】
"Hello—Tanaka-san? I'm Natsume Tina, I want to ask, do you know where Takahashi-san is now? Or have you seen her somewhere?"... "No~ Thank you for interrupting so late."
"Yamamoto-san? ... Is that so! Excuse me..."
"Is it Moriyama-san?"
"I'm sorry to bother you..."
"Okay, thank you..."
"Mr. Igarashi... Where did Nazuki go..." Tina leaned on the sofa and said to Mizhi.But the other party didn't seem to hear it, and was still talking on the phone.
"Master Igarashi..." He called again uncertainly, but still didn't agree.
After a while, the man finally reacted. "What's wrong?"
"Let's try to go to the school to find it! She might not have come back since she was found out at noon. Our school is quite big, isn't it?"
"But--"
"I'm definitely still in school, please believe me." I don't know where Natsume's self-confidence comes from, but I still choose to believe her.
******************
Boom boom boom~~ boom boom boom~~ The two got on the train bound for Hachioji
"Ms. Igarashi..."
"Yeah." Mi Zhi was full of worry, and had no time to take care of the things around her.
"What's your...what's your relationship with Naizuki." With this simple question, Mizhi's attention was immediately focused.
"The relationship with you is just a simple teacher-student relationship."
"Then why are you at Nazuki's house!?" There were only the two of them in the tram car, and Tina's tone seemed a bit threatening
"..."
"Looks like my guess was right...it turns out that it is really you who is by Nazuki's side.
But I also want to thank you, she has changed a lot this year.
She used to have a deep sense of guilt for the death of her parents. She was bored with everything in her heart, and she was unwilling to share it with others. Gradually, her personality became forbearing... If this continues, one day she will jump off the roof I wouldn't be surprised.
so... i have something to ask you
Please don't hurt her..."
"Well... she is my favorite person."
*******************
"Nazuki! Nazuki! Are you there? Say yes if you are——Nazuki—"
Without the key to the main power switch, the two could only search in the corridor with the flashlight in the teacher's office.
"Teacher, look!" In the place where the clothes were hung at the back of the classroom in Group A of the 2nd year, there was still one clothes left on the clothes rack.Open the back of the button and look at [TN] "It really is Nazuki's coat, hasn't she even been back to the classroom?"
"What to do—the temperature has dropped significantly now, and she hasn't returned home—where is she!" Under several hours of mental pressure, Mizhi sat down slowly against the wall.
"Teacher—don't worry, Nayue is not such a fragile person. She won't... she must have lost her way somewhere, for sure." Thinking of the most terrible result, she didn't dare to continue talking, and could only comfort herself.
Having witnessed Nazuki standing by the window and trying to jump off, Tina is a little scared now.Is it really the same as that time?
"Teacher... do you have a contact book for all the students in the school? There was a first grader who came to see Nayue at noon, maybe I could learn something from her." Tina had a hunch that Nayue's disappearance must have something to do with that person .
"Hmm. Do you know that person's name?"
"It seems to be Shiraishi..."
"Baishi...Baishi...Baishi Path! The teacher found it, the Baishi Path of Group B in 1st year! I'll call now"
"This is Baishi's house, who are you looking for?" Butler Tachibana answered the phone
"Excuse me, is this the home of classmate Shiraishi Kichi? I am Natsume in the second grade. Can I ask her to answer the phone?" The call to Shiraishi's house seemed like the last hope.
"Wait a moment, I'll call Miss right now." There was a sound of putting down the handset on the phone, and someone picked it up in about a minute.
"I am Baishijing."
"I want to ask about Takahashi Natsuki - did you ask her to go out at noon today?"
"This is a secret between me and Senior Nazuki, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you!" As if verified, Nazuki's disappearance is definitely related to this person.
"Now... Takahashi Natsuki is missing. Do you still choose not to tell?"
"Missing? What does it have to do with me. By the way, maybe she's still in that forest—she should stay in a dark corner. Hahahaha——" There was a burst of laughter from the other side of the phone Then hung up, the laughter made people feel a little chilly and... scary.
"The woods?" No one cared about her ridicule, they were all focused on looking for Nayue
"The woods! Go to the woods!"
******************
"Nazuki—where are you? Naizuki—" pushing aside the surrounding branches with difficulty.
"Yazhi..." seems to have heard Nayue's voice, "Nazuki——Nazuki is here! I heard Nayue's voice!"
"Teacher, calm down..."
"Nazuki!" Then he waved away Tina's hand and walked towards the inside of the woods by himself.
At this time, the sky has gradually turned gray and white, light is slowly leaking from the gaps in the branches, and the sun has slowly risen.
Its daybreak--
"Natsuki—Natsuki—where are you—"
"Mi... Zhi..." There was a very small call, which was easily covered by the sound of footsteps
"Nazuki! Where are you? I can't see you!"
It seems that he has no strength to make a sound, he just raised his hand and moved
"Nazuki!"
Nazuki just leaned on the branch, and didn't respond to Yazhi's movements.
"Nazuki—are you okay—" He took off his coat and covered Nayue's body, hugging the dew-drenched body tightly.In addition to these thighs, there are a few marks that look like they were scratched by branches, and the shoes and socks are covered with mud.Looks like he's had a hard time in the woods.
"After I got lost, I believed that Mizhi would definitely come back to pick me up, and he did." After finishing speaking, he fell softly on Mizhi's body
"It's great that you're fine..." Then he hugged the limp body tightly, "I'll take you out, don't worry."
No one would respond to her anymore, but she still carried this slender body on her back and started walking towards the memory.
*****************
It was already dawn, and the students gradually came to the school.
She has been guarding behind the school building, waiting for a familiar figure to appear, but... all she is waiting for is the sunlight that has crossed the barriers and reached the ground
"Mr. Principal! Please listen to me... Igarashi-sensei went into the woods to look for Takahashi-san and hasn't come out. Takahashi-san has also been missing for a long time. Can you help me?"
"Mr. Igarashi and Takahashi-san? In the woods?" Mr. Principal, who was already aged, didn't realize what happened for a while.
"Yes, sir, help us—"
"Ms. Igarashi—Takahashi-san—we're here to find you—"
"Ms. Igarashi—"
Teachers who had no classes in the office all joined the search.Everyone just wandered around. No one dared to enter this forest, because no one was familiar with the situation inside, nor did they know how big this forest was or what was inside.
