Overwhelmed by sorrow, she could hardly catch her breath.
A burning heat flared up in her throat, blurring her vision even more.
"Finally, do you have anything else you want to say?" Dubian Cat appeared.
"Of course!" Xiaoquan Aonai revealed a brilliant smile.
She flung open the window covered in droplets, facing the sky that was about to clear, and yelled out to the courtyard:
"In my next life, please let me be a handsome guy in Tokyo!"
She gasped for air fiercely.
The school building erupted in noise, with hallways, classrooms, and passages all buzzing with discussions about her.
Xiaoquan Aonai was finally able to speak.
"Be careful on your way," she said.
"Yeah, I'm off!" Even until the end, Xiaoquan Aonai kept a radiant smile.
Dubian Cat slowly disappeared.
The bright smile on Dubian Che's face slowly faded.
Through the thick clouds, the sky shone directly down, leaving Shinjuku District gleaming anew after the rain.
Dubian Che turned to look at Xiaoquan Aonai.
