A dazzling summer morning.
St. Margaret's School
Before yesterday, there were still rows of uniformed students sitting in all the classrooms in the huge ""-shaped school building. The teachers were rushing through the corridors... This morning, there were beams across the high ceiling.| The corridor with the high ceiling and the dazzling stained glass auditorium were all empty, leaving only traces of the noise from yesterday.
The morning of the first day of summer vacation
The students who had disappeared from the school building put on their beautiful shirts, boots, and mature dresses. When the time came, they rushed out of the dormitory together. Every face was shining with joy and anticipation as they thought of the long two-month summer vacation that was about to begin.
The summer sun rises high| The towering blue sky poured down. The water from the fountain spilled down. The students dragged their heavy suitcases across the campus and rushed to the main entrance of St. Margaret's School. Everyone is proud| She proudly told him about her summer vacation plans.
The children of the aristocrats had to reunite with their families before spending a luxurious holiday together. (Those of us who are forced to watch the third watch.）At the only bus stop in the village, the students would probably swarm up and board the train in a few minutes.
Far away from the commotion and cheerful noise, a young man sat quietly in his dormitory room.
(The author promised that this book wouldn't torture the main character, although I don't know what the next one will be... Also, the author is a long-haired man. If you want to know why I wrote this, you can watch this afternoon!)!!）
The city has been built for a long time.
He has been sitting in the peach blossom room| He opened his textbook and notebook in front of his wooden desk and studied hard as usual.
Even so, she was still affected by the cheerful noise coming from outside the window.
(Summer vacation? How nice it would be if I had plans to go out.) However, it would take too much time and travel expenses to return to the country, so he could only stay in the school…for a whole two months. It was so long.)
She couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, a knock came from the French window in the room.”There was the sound of something hitting him. Yimi raised his head and tilted his head, wondering what it was. Then, something hit the window even harder.
It was Little Rock.
Hisashi Izumi opened the window and looked outside.
One of the girls was looking up at Ichiya's room on the second floor. When he saw Yimi's face, his expression lit up happily.
She had short blonde hair and a pair of big blue eyes that were moving around with joy. It was as if he felt that his slender limbs were in the way.| She sat on the suitcase beside her.
It was Avril Bradley. A few months ago, she was an international student from the UK. She had experienced many things with Ichiya. In the past few months, they had become an open boyfriend and girlfriend. Back then, it was Avril who had pursued Hisashi Ichiya. She waved at Yimi energetically.
"Jiucheng, do you have any plans for the summer vacation?”
"N-no…?"
"Do you want to go to the Mediterranean with me?”
Hisashi Izumi tilted his head in surprise.
"The Mediterranean Sea you mentioned, is it the Mediterranean Sea?”
Avril nodded energetically. She squinted her eyes because of the glaring sunlight and covered the sunlight with her palm as she looked up.
"Yes! Well, my grandmother, the wife of Sir Bradley the adventurer, had a small, cozy villa in a Mediterranean summer resort. A month before I return home to England, I will go to the seaside with my grandmother for a holiday. She said that I can bring my boyfriend over. He also wants to see it. So…"
"Invite me over?"
"Of course, I don't have any other boyfriends! So, that…"
Avril suddenly blushed, and her actions were a little awkward. She then looked up at Yimi, frowning worriedly.
" The Mediterranean Sea..."
Hisashi Izumi's mind suddenly drifted into the distance, and he could not help but imagine.
The yellow sunlight, the snow-white beach, and the white sand. People languidly basked in the sun; The dining table was filled with fresh fish and seafood. And the entire blue summer ocean.
Hisashi Izumi's expression brightened."
"Thank you, Avril. I'll go with you!"
"Really?"
The excited Avril was full of smiles, waving her hands non-stop.| His legs kept jumping.
"Then I'll take the afternoon train. I'll pack my luggage before noon. I'll wait for you at the main entrance!"
"Good!"
Izumi excitedly waved at Avril and ran back into the room to pack his luggage.
He took out the necessary textbooks, clothes, swimsuits, and luggage seriously. Then, he heard a knock on the door. Yimi raised his head.
"The door isn't locked…"
Before he could finish speaking, the door was forcefully opened.
sexual| The red-haired dorm matron stood there feeling so touched. Perhaps it was the first day of the summer vacation, but she could no longer see the apron that she usually wore around her waist. Instead, she was wearing a red one-piece dress that revealed her exquisite curves and matched her hair color. Hisashi Izumi blushed and quickly asked what was the matter.
The warden only looked around Hisashi Izumi's room without saying a word.
" Uh, warden…please don't look for oriental clothes or decorations in my room…"
"Hehehe-the clothes and accessories I took from this room were all well received.”
"Take it away? To me, it's more like a robbery…Oh right, what's the matter?”
The dorm supervisor, who was casually approaching the luggage piled on the bed and looking around, finally came back to his senses when he heard Hisashi Izumi's words.
"Yes, of course, I came to find you because I have something to do.”
"Oh…"
"I forgot…Ah, I remember now! Yes, I do!"
The warden stretched out his hand casually| thoracic incision| " Eh, it's not here…" After muttering to himself, he searched his chest again.| The front and waist pockets. In the end, he finally said,"I didn't bring it!"”He left the room and waited until Hisashi Izumi had almost finished packing his luggage and had long forgotten about the matter of the dorm supervisor before he ran back.
"Look, this is it!"
The warden handed over a letter. It was a letter from Hisashi Izumi's home country.
"When I went to the post office, I happened to have a letter for Jiucheng, so I asked me to bring it back. Then I'll leave it to you."
"Thank, thank you…"
"I've said it."
After the strange answer, the warden waved his hand and closed the door before leaving.
Hisashi Izumi, who had finished packing his luggage, came to the main entrance. From afar, he saw Avril waving at him.
"Jiucheng, here!"
Hisashi Izumi dragged his suitcase and walked over quickly. She had a slim and fit body, slender limbs, and a head with short blond hair.
"Let's go, Avril."
"Oh, okay." Just like that, the couple went home to meet their parents.
(I won't tell them that I pushed it to Kyunari Izumi because I don't like short hair!)）
I am the dividing line
In the depths of the Botanic Garden, a large skylight was open. The dry summer breeze blew slowly, and the purple velvet bow around Victoria's waist fluttered in the wind.
Her beautiful golden hair danced in the wind.
It was as if the hustle and bustle of the world was very far away from here, just like the time before yesterday... before the summer vacation, there was silence, weariness, and hard intelligence floating.
"Victoria-"
"…Huh?"
There seems to be a low moan| Yin| It seemed to be her response. Ye Yuehuan was overjoyed and could not help but smile.
(At first…in the spring, even when I approached Victoria and asked her, she was uninterested and pretended not to see me. However, recently, the chances of him responding with a low groan that was close to an answer had increased. Hehehe…moaning was the evilest.）
They stepped into the depths of the Botanic Garden.
Just like the protagonist in a fairy tale who threw bread crumbs on the road, it seemed that today she was also moving deeper into the book. Walking along the book, he entered the depths of the Botanic Garden that he rarely stepped into. Today, Victoria sat on a palm branch, burying her head in an open book.
She was wearing a light purple dress with a velvet belt tied into a big bow at the back. It was like a rare southern bird perched on a tree branch, and its beautiful golden hair that hung down to the ground swayed from time to time.
"Today is the summer vacation, Victoria. Uh, you, that…"
"I will always stay here."
Victoria replied in a flat voice.
Her little feet are wearing purple buds that match her dress| The silk shoes kept shaking.
"Always…"
Like a strange bird perched on a branch, Victoria tilted her head and looked at Night Moon in disappointment.
Then, with extreme boredom and a little loneliness,| Solitary's hoarse voice murmured,
"Huan, are you going back to China?"
"No, although the summer vacation is two months long, there's not much time to return to China. Moreover, there's still the damn summer homework!!”
(Damn it, I've been doing summer homework for 14 years, and now I still have to do summer homework in the 2D world!)!）
Therefore, I advise everyone to build a good relationship with their classmates (girls) so that they don't have to worry about homework. (Laughter)
"Oh." Victoria, who seemed to have expected this, was not surprised.
Suddenly, Ye Yuehuan realized something was wrong and started to ask Victoria.
"Speaking of Victoria, I didn't give you your summer homework, and Teacher Cecil didn't come to find me.”
The wind blew again. It blew Victoria's long golden hair and Ye Yuehuan's short black hair.
" Illusion, you were the only one who climbed the stairs in excruciating pain with sore legs, so you were the only one who wrote the summer homework that was dozens of centimeters tall.”
" Why?!"
" Because I have special privileges…"
"I must apply too."
"If you have my brains.”
"..." The excited Night Moon was reminded by Victoria that his IQ was not high enough...
I am the dividing line
A dry wind blew past.
Summer had finally arrived at the St. Margaret's Academy, which was located on a gently inclined hillside, and the dazzling white sunlight shone down.
After the summer vacation began-
Because almost all the students had left, the vast and solemn school was filled with a deep silence, as if all living things had disappeared after a long time.
Only the squirrels that occasionally appeared on the hill in the school made squeaking sounds.
The flowers in the flower bed were all different colors. Although no one was enjoying them, they were still swaying in the hot wind.
The square shadow of the pavilion dyed the green grass black.
There was only silence and the sun, and…
"…Aiya, aiyayaya!"
Before noon-
Holding a stack of papers that looked like exam papers, Jiao walked out of the school building while adjusting her round glasses.| The little girl was Teacher Cecil. The teacher suddenly stopped and narrowed his eyes at the vast grassland on the other side of the flower bed and fountain opposite the school building.
"Those two people are still there."
Teacher Cecil hugged the paper again and hurried forward. When they passed through the grass, they said to the two people,
"The relationship between the two of you is still so good.”
He tried to chat with them.
The two people who heard this…One of them was a young man from the East who stood still. He nodded in response with a serious expression that had already become a registered trademark. As it was a holiday, he was not wearing a uniform, but an ordinary western-style casual dress. However, his shoes were slippers, and he was holding something that was the complete opposite of his clothes and extremely serious expression with one hand-a pink parasol decorated with light ruffled edges.
Teacher Cecil narrowed his drooping eyes and stared at the foreign student from China, Ye Yuehuan, as well as something in the circular shadow he had made on the grass with his floundered parasol. He nodded.
"Then, Student Huan, I'll leave her to you.”
"Alright!"
Ye Yuehuan happily stood up straight and responded to Teacher Cecil's instructions.
"Ah…Victoria, Victoria, Teacher Cecil just asked me to take care of you. Well, since I've been asked, I have to do something…Are you listening to me? Hello, Victoria. I'm going to catch him…"
After standing straight and sending off Cecil's teacher, Ye Yuehuan immediately let out a mischievous sound.
In a corner of the almost empty campus of St. Margaret's School, Night Moon stood still on the grass, not knowing what to do. She looked at the center of the shadow of the parasol lying at her feet, with the lotus leaf and the bud.| The silk is so fluffy| Little Sally's girlfriend.
The girl with the head of the " Fountain of Wisdom " and " The Last and Strongest Power in Europe ", Victoria De Brois, had been lying on the grass without moving.
Her beautiful blonde hair was scattered on the grass like an untied velvet headscarf, and she was wrapped in a luxurious ruffled dress that was a mix of white silk and black velvet. The black and white headgear also gently wrapped around her small head.
Did she fall asleep when she wasn't paying attention? The worried Night Moon secretly peeked and saw Victoria in a luxurious dress with her rosy cheeks and green eyes that looked like a long-lived old man's sleepy eyes. She opened her eyes like bright jade.
"What, you're awake?"
"Illusion…so noisy…"
"Don't ignore my words, okay? I've been like an idiot since just now. You, who's lying here out of boredom, are holding a parasol like this. I'll probably die from the heat first. Hey, Victoria…"
"Ah…Huan, how can I be as clueless as you?| A loving boyfriend, ah, you would not hesitate to go through fire and water for a lady. Even if you were to die, you would not hesitate to go. Can't you have some manners!”
Victoria lay on the ground and pouted in dissatisfaction.| peach fruit| Mouth.
Seeing this scene, Night Moon could not help but pull Victoria's face.
"Since you've already boarded the pirate ship, don't even think about running away.”
"Oh, I was wrong…I know! Let go!”Victoria, who wanted to say that he was wrong, couldn't help but change his words in the end.
" Wait..." A few minutes later... Night Moon finally let go of Victoria's murderous gaze. Victoria didn't blame Ye Yuehuan. She just used her golden mouth to kiss Ye Yuehuan's neck and then lay on the grass in boredom. Indeed, he wasn't angry. Just now, it was just a proof of Victoria's love…
"It's really boring ~ I don't want to read either.”
"Because it's too hot. If that was the case, why did he come to this hottest place? She even abused her boyfriend."
Hearing Ye Yuehuan's words, Victoria only replied,"”He replied and slowly rolled to the right. He was about to leave the shadow of the parasol. Although he was complaining, Ye Yuehuan hurried to catch up with him and put the parasol on Victoria's head.
Victoria, who noticed this, pulled a long face and snorted unhappily. Then, he stared at Ye Yuehuan's feet."
"How rude, Huan. You actually went out in slippers in broad daylight.”
Victoria rolled in the opposite direction and continued to lie on the ground. Ye Yuehuan hurriedly held an umbrella and chased after him. The two of them rolled on the vast grass, pattering, pattering, rolling, pattering, pattering-they continued to chase lazily for a while before finally stopping.
On a hot summer day, the dry wind blew Ye Yuehuan's black hair.
The sound of flowers rubbing against leaves could be heard from somewhere.
The pure white fountain was like an icicle melted by the hot wind, flowing slowly and continuously.
A quiet summer day.
"So, Victoria..."
"…Hmm?"
"Why do you answer so weakly? Forget it, I ran around looking for you today…"
Today was the day after the summer vacation. Ye Yuehuan had been searching for Victoria early in the morning as usual…
With one hand holding the parasol, he stretched out his hand.| He took out an envelope from his pocket. Victoria lay on the ground and looked up with interest."
"What a strange pocket, Illusion! However, it can be said that it is very similar to your style.”
"Don't bother about me! What was important was Avril, Avril! Ah, really, Avril Bradley's letter had arrived. She and Hisashi Izumi went to their grandmother's villa on the Mediterranean coast to meet their parents during the summer vacation. Speaking of which, I should bring you to meet your mother-in-law and father-in-law.”
"Huan, don't push your luck. I'm just an innocent girl who was tricked by you into agreeing to be your girlfriend.”
"Hey, hey, but you can't run away anymore.”
"Oh ~" Victoria stopped talking as if she had lost her will to fight. Seeing Victoria like this, Ye Yuehuan nodded.
" Alright, I'll continue reading the letter. Where is it…"
Ye Yuehuan spoke quickly and tried to speak in a cheerful tone.
"... it's said that many strange things happen there. Even though I don't really understand Avril's letter, at least it's your favorite puzzle. Are you interested?"
"…Hmm."
Victoria responded softly, but she still lay down like a white cat in its afternoon nap. She said lazily,
" I can sense a strong sense of boredom from this strange incident.”
"Hmm…"
"But forget it. It's much better than continuing to be bored like this.”
"Really?"
"Yeah…Alright, read it out first.”
Night Moon nodded in relief and puffed out his chest. Then, he held the parasol in one hand and picked up the postcard with the other. He read aloud,
"'Student Huan, Buongiorno! (Note: "Hello" in Italian."
"What is this?"
"That's what it says. Um-"'…Jiucheng and I are writing this letter on the train to the Mediterranean. I just watched 'Ghost Tales'…'"
"Oh…"
"'I've finished reading it, and I'm feeling bored. And then..."
Avril Bradley and Hisashi Kazuya boarded the train and arrived at the city on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea a few days before Night Moon read the letter. At dusk on the first day of summer vacation-
The smell of the tide, the dry fine sand, the high blue sky, and the endless coastline. The white sand beach was full of umbrellas and loungers, and the suntanned summer visitors with sweaty skin stretched their limbs and walked around.
Riding on the dry wind with sand, the smell of sunblock oil and gas emitted by the wheat-colored skin wafted strongly along with the smell of seawater.
Avril and Hisashi rode in an open-top carriage pulled by mules and horses. The sound of hooves clattered as they walked along the narrow stone path, excitedly heading toward their deceased grandfather's villa.
"Milk-milk-! Here we come!"
In front of the old but meticulously tidied two-story holiday cottage, Avril waved her hands vigorously. As soon as he saw the old lady waving at him from the window on the second floor, he jumped off the carriage and ran happily. Hisashi Izumi hurriedly carried Avril's luggage and went upstairs.
Suddenly, she bumped into a young man who was dragging a small truck full of flowers of all colors. She could not help but fall. Jiucheng quickly ran over to help Avril up and asked with concern,"
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah," she said.
The person he bumped into was a flower vendor, an Italian teenager of similar age. He hurriedly apologized to Avril.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
At this moment, the young man stared at Avril's face, and for some reason, his face was suddenly filled with anger. She quickly said a few words, but Avril didn't understand Italian, so she could only look back with her head tilted.
The young man's face turned sorrowful when he saw this, but he still grabbed a small bouquet of red flowers from the flowers he was selling and threw it at Avril roughly for some reason.
"Wow?"
"What are you doing?" Hisashi Izumi, who was standing at the side, was also furious at this person who was unfriendly to his girlfriend.
"Forget it, Jiucheng."
The young man took two or three steps back, staring at Avril. Avril asked in confusion,"
"This, this is for me?"
After looking at the young man, she looked at the red bouquet and couldn't help but tilt her head. At this moment, the old woman also came out of the villa. It was Grandmother. Avril thanked him and ran back to the villa with Hisashi Izumi, who was carrying his luggage.
"Is he Jiucheng?"
Avril nodded with a coaxing expression. Hisashi Kazuya also greeted the old lady with a red face.
"Hello, Grandma Bradley."
"Alright, come in."
Sir Bradley's widow said to her granddaughter, who had finally calmed down and started to drink black tea after exploring the villa and talking about her happy summer vacation plans.
"Oh, he's Mitchell."
Avril bit her biscuit and asked,"
"Mitchell?"
Grandmother nodded. The tall and energetic old woman with silver hair combed behind her head had wrinkles on her face that corresponded to her age. Her blue eyes were similar to her granddaughter's, and she was no different from a mischievous teenage girl. She rolled around agilely.
"He's the son of an Italian couple in the neighborhood. He sells flowers every summer. Although we meet every summer, I don't speak the language, so I haven't talked to him.”
"Oh…"
"She actually gave you a bouquet. She probably likes you.”
"What is it, Grandma? He already has a long city, and he's staring at me?”Hisashi Kazumi blushed as he listened to Avril.
"So you don't like it?"
"Grandma, do you like it or not?"
Grandmother looked at her granddaughter's angry face and couldn't help but laugh. Then, his expression became more serious.
"Don't talk about Mitchell. Do you remember Flany Bradley?”
"Flany? I don't know him. Who is he?"
"It's your cousin. They had only met once when they were very young. No wonder he didn't remember. She's about two or three years older than you. She said she wanted to come to the villa to play, so I said welcome. Since he's close to your age, he should be able to become your playmate. But Frannie seems to hate you."
"W-why!?"
"It's probably because of 'Pence Black'.”
Avril's expression darkened.
The " Black Pence " was a legacy left behind by adventurer Sir Bradley to his granddaughter, Avril. As it was a memento left behind by her beloved grandfather, Avril did not sell the precious " Black Pence " stamp, but kept it carefully...
"That child is really something. He was quite straightforward when he was young. It's probably because he was spoiled by his parents. I didn't expect him to become a child who likes to dig into a dead end. He also said that since you monopolized the inheritance, you must have other intentions for this villa. But tonight, Flany will come over too. You guys have to get along well.”
"What?"
Facing the dissatisfied Avril, Grandmother smiled again."
"Don't worry, you two will definitely become good sisters.”
That night…
Avril was in her small room on the second floor. She opened the letter stack and held a quill in one hand." Mm, mm…" She kept muttering.
On the letter was only an article written on the train on the way to this city. It only wrote that she was bored after reading the book.
"Er-I'm going to write a lot of happy things.”
Avril looked up as if she had noticed something.
At some point, the door had opened, and there stood a woman with short blonde hair and blue eyes like the summer sky. She looked quite similar to Avril, but slightly older.
"Are you Frannie?”
"Then, you are my sworn enemy, Avril.”
Frannie stared at Avril. Then, he suddenly said,"
"You'd better leave this place immediately. This villa…was haunted by ghosts!”
"Ghost?"
Avril screamed. Flany seemed to misunderstand the voice as fear, so she laughed happily and lowered her voice even more as if she was threatening him.
"Avril, someone died in this villa seven years ago. The beautiful Italian girl who was abandoned by the nobles during the summer vacation jumped into the sea with a bouquet of flowers. She was salvaged and transported to this villa! However, the girl was not saved and died here. After that, the woman in white who was holding the flower, the ghost, and…waaa?”
"Waaah ~!?"
Avril was so happy that her eyes lit up and she couldn't help but scream. Flany narrowed her blue eyes in satisfaction and began to describe how the white-clothed ghost holding the bouquet had caused the residents in the villa to panic.
Flany finally realized that her eyes were shining." Tell me more, tell me more!”Her cousin, who was begging for more ghost stories, was a little unusual. After she left with her head tilted, Avril hurriedly returned to the table.
He licked the tip of the feather pen and began to write excitedly.
" Student Huan, it's so fun here. It was said that there were ghosts in this villa, and Jiucheng would be in fear for a long time. That's...'
Just as Avril was writing…
Without making a sound, the door slowly opened.
He seemed to see a long, thin, and somewhat strange shadow swaying.
Avril looked up at the door, but she didn't take it to heart at all. Her gaze fell on the letter again.
Next was…
Outside the window where the starry sky could be seen.
It was as light as a feather…
Light, light…
Something flashed past, glowing with a pale light.
A red flower| The petal gently landed beside Avril, who was focused on writing the letter.
"Hmm?"
Avril tilted her head and slowly raised it.
Outside the window floated a woman sprinkling flowers| It was a girl in a white dress.
Avril stared blankly at the girl for a while, then took a deep breath."
"This, this is, the second floor!”
Avril quickly stood up…but she didn't run away. Instead, she rushed to the window. At this moment, the girl…was light, light, light…
Passing through the window in a weird way, sprinkling flowers| The petals flew away. Avril leaned against the window frame and looked around.
No one…
any
