I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 869
——[Aoki, don’t you like such a gift? 】
Vaguely, Li Yan heard his own voice.
This question seems to have been caused by him giving a gift to Haruka Aoki at the temple fair not long ago.
——[No, I like it very much...Thank you, I like it very much...Someone gave me a gift. 】
This is a heartfelt message with joy and fear of being taken away.
"..."
Li Yan listened quietly, quietly...feeling Aoki Yao's loneliness.
Therefore, she used this method to find her own warmth when she was extremely scared.
It seems that what Haruka Aoki means is that after feeling the care he gave her for a period of time, she is no longer ready to believe that there is anyone in this world who can understand her.
She was the descendant of the ancient god Hadasr, and soon after she was born, her father was killed by him.
In his memory, under the scarlet moon, there were two slender figures immersed in the anxiety of killing. One was himself, and the other was Nidhogg wearing a top hat... The two of them participated in the battle against the old days. A crazy day of dominator hunting.
He always thought this was the right way to protect everyone.
but now……
In any case, to a certain extent, he was indeed the one who took away a relative of hers...
He and Nidhogg actually committed a sin. Even if they had to do it, no matter how perfect their justice was, for Haruka Aoki, this sin was inadvertently caused by Li Yan.
He raised his head and looked up at the sky.
The light on the water gradually became thinner and thinner, as if he was still sinking.
"Sure enough, it's still sinking."
Li Yan looked at the water calmly and thought quietly to himself.
This is not the real deep sea...
The saddest and happiest things I heard about Aoki Haruka before were probably... After his consciousness was deprived, he was exiled by Xiaoyao into his inner world...

night.
After school, Haruka Aoki stood up from his seat with his schoolbag on his back.
"Ah, Xiaoyao, you went back very early today!"
When Yui met her in the corridor, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled randomly and said.
Aoki Haruka pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "I went back too late recently, and the adults told me."
"Really? I think so. Xiaoyao, if you go back late every day, you will definitely be scolded by adults."
Yui smiled and agreed.
"……Um."
Aoki Haruka seemed to be out of sorts. After being quiet for a while, he responded.
This is already the fifth day.
Haruka Aoki was carrying his schoolbag, riding the subway, and heading back to his daily route like an ordinary elementary school student.
Perhaps many primary school students don't know how important walking on the always-near way home is to their childhood, but Haruka Aoki feels very different.
Home, not because the house is there.
But wherever your family is, that's home.
"I'm back."
Pushing open the door of his home, Aoki Haruka said to the room as always.
The house was sunny and quite neat and clean, and the sound of cooking could be heard from the kitchen.
At this time, parents in every household began to prepare dinner. In Haruka Aoki's house, there was almost no fireworks for a long time.
"Welcome back." A young man said to Haruka Aoki in a low voice.
Qingmu Yao walked into the house and saw the figure wearing an apron, cooking soup, and the dull and mechanical Li Yan.
"..."
Aoki Haruka's expression was somewhat meaningful.
Li Yan now is still Li Yan, but he is Teacher Li Yan after accepting her psychological suggestion. She has always had the ability to interfere with other people's consciousness, but she has never actually done this to a person.
In her heart, she still felt guilty and painful for what she had done...
"Teacher, what are you cooking?"
Aoki Haruka put down her schoolbag and asked.
"Tomato and egg drop soup, and there will be fried chili snails later."
Li Yan replied.
"..."
Aoki Haruka's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he always felt that it was not very to his liking.
But that’s fine too…
She crossed the numbers on the calendar and counted the number of days that Li Yan's consciousness would be imprisoned.
After finishing the hot meal, Aoki Haruka and Li Yan took a hot bath together.
The house was no longer dark, and she could hear the adult chattering while taking a bath.
No matter how it was, no matter how fake it was, she miraculously felt that Li Yan was close to someone, that this place felt like home. Li Yan still had a sense of caring about her from the bottom of his heart, which warmed her.
At night, Aoki Haruka was in his room, unable to fall asleep.
She inadvertently looked at her calendar again, secretly got up from the bed, and then got into Li Yan's quilt next door.
Hugging the body of the person who cared about her, Qingmu Yao felt warm and at ease. However, once her hand fell to a place that shouldn't be touched, Li Yan still moved, startling her, and subconsciously put his hand down. To where it belongs.
