Chapter 1534
"Because you are Kiana... so, Bronya will say goodbye to you with a smile."
"Of course, Bronya also considered some special periods when Kiana will definitely need our company."
"To solve this problem, Bronya decided to play games online with Kiana every night, as for what to play..."
"Let's just play all 312 games in Bronya's game library once~"
……
The three chatted about many warm and joyful side topics.
But the players could see that behind this joy, the three were very reluctant to part with each other.
And the message they finally sent to Kiana was also very simple—
Come home early, Kiana!
Finally, Bronya left first.
She waved at Kiana with a smile, but her eyes were full of tears after turning back.
Players could really understand Bronya's reluctance to part.
After all, from the meeting in Changkong City until now, the bond between the three had long been unbreakable.
Although they could contact every day, it was like friends about to go abroad.
They could contact, but it was hard to see each other again, so sadness and reluctance were inevitable.
In the bullet comments, the whole screen was filled with 【Come home early, Kiana!】.
This was a farewell where warmth and reluctance coexisted, and it was the most perfect ending.
Getting closer and closer to the ending, Seeing Qingque and many players also felt more and more reluctant.
Seeing Qingque watched Kiana's conversation with everyone incredibly seriously.
……
Finally, only Miss Yayi and Kiana were left on the spot.
"..."
They walked toward the back, and for a while, they were a bit silent.
"Clearly there's still a lot I want to tell you all... but when the words reached my lips, I suddenly didn't know what to say..."
She looked at Miss Yayi, her mouth carrying a faint smile: "In this regard, should I also learn from Bronya properly?"
"—She is simply too dashing."
"We indeed have a lot to learn, and a long road to walk." Miss Yayi also smiled lightly: "And fortunately..."
"We all have enough 【time】."
"Yeah..."
The two walked all the way and came to that 【station】 again.
"But speaking of which, I seem to haven't told Kiana about my future plans yet, right?"
"Eh? Miss Yayi has any clear ideas?"
"... I think, I will choose 【teacher】 as my profession?"
"Like Teacher Himeko?"
"That's not necessarily..." Miss Yayi smiled: "After all, I never drink alcohol, but..."
"Let me use flowers and fruits as a metaphor—"
"Every fruit is born from a lucky flower, blooming, pollinating... experiencing the scorching sun, wind and rain, and finally becoming a new life."
"I won't worry about the 【fruit】 itself, because it has already realized itself on its own path."
"I will only pick up the 【petals】 and offer their remaining fragrance to everyone I meet on the journey."
"I want to tell them what kind of strong winds that flower endured and what kind of heavy rain it endured to nourish its world."
"And as an existence similar to it, I also want to use my small petals to protect the sprouts beside me."
"—Until those flowers become brand new lives."
……
"Woo~~"
The train's whistle interrupted the idle chat between the girls.
It slowly drove into this station where no vehicles had ever stopped... as if issuing a summons to its own qualified person.
The train door opened.
Kiana stepped onto the train, this was the starting point for the moon.
She turned back in silence, and the two girls looked at each other and smiled—
Just like the past, and just like the future.
……
The screen stopped here.
The game returned to the level selection interface.
Seeing Qingque clicked the mouse and pulled it back.
Only the last level was left... and in front of this level, there was a video playback button.
Seeing Qingque only felt her heartbeat stop.
"Woo woo..."
"It really ended..."
In an instant, reluctance like a sea wave surged into her heart, drowning her.
Bullet comments also swarmed in at this time.
【Thanks for the company QAQ】
【Finished, scattering flowers QAQ】
【Don't...】
【Watched so many anime, never felt so uncomfortable as now...】
【Perfect ending, finished, scattering flowers~~~】
【Thoughts involuntarily returned to that summer of that year... the girl jumped down from the warship... QAQ】
【Now is Kiana time~ QAQ】
【Thunder... burst!】
【Light wings—spread! QAQ】
【Come home early, Kiana!!】
……
On the other side, the girls who had been watching the live stream were also incredibly moved.
Even Kiana herself looked a bit depressed.
Although she was the protagonist, at this moment, she was just an ordinary player, a witness to a story.
And in front of the live stream.
Seeing Qingque looked at the screen blankly, silent for a long time.
The audience didn't urge her either.
Tingyun was also silent, feeling a bit empty inside.
At this moment, their mood was the same as when Miss Yayi said goodbye to Elysia.
It seemed that if they waited a little longer, they could make the 【end】 arrive a little later.
"So fast... how did it end so quickly..."
She tightened her grip on the mouse, glanced at the chapter title, and suppressed the loss in her heart.
"..."
"Then, toward tomorrow..."
Seeing Qingque took a deep breath.
"Alright... the animated short for the finale..."
She controlled the mouse and clicked the video's playback button—
【"Honkai 3" animated short "Graduation Trip"】
The beginning was still Mihuyou's logo.
And the background sound was a clanking sound of a train in motion.
