Chapter 167

In his mind, countless scenes flashed by like a slide show.

They were all things he had experienced himself...

Yet, he was no longer the original self; he had become a brand-new Kitakami Yoru.

The night passed in silence.

September 1st.

It was already early autumn.

Kitakami Yoru maintained his summer vacation schedule.

After washing up and doing aerobic exercise on an empty stomach, he made breakfast.

Generally speaking, classes are not held on the day of reporting.

After a simple meal, Kitakami Yoru let his hair hang loose; he just grabbed it casually and didn't spend time styling it.

Uncle Tony's hairstyle didn't need deliberate care.

"Gabriel, let's go to school to report; school is starting."

Kitakami Yoru knocked on the door of Gabriel's apartment.

"No... I'm not going; you go first."

In the slightly messy room, Gabriel had dark circles under her eyes; it looked like she had been gaming all night.

"Then keep an eye on the time yourself..."

Kitakami Yoru remembered he still had to go to the hospital to pick up his physical exam report, and the reporting time for Shuchiin Academy was quite flexible.

As long as it was before 12:00 noon.

So he didn't urge Gabriel.

"Aoyama-san seems to have work today, right?"

"And her boyfriend, I wonder how they are doing."

When leaving, Kitakami Yoru originally wanted to call Aoyama Nanami, but hesitated when he reached the stairs.

Previously, after Aoyama Nanami learned that Kanda Sorata was pretending to be her boyfriend, she went directly to warn him.

Afterward, Kitakami Yoru went to the hospital.

He hadn't been to school for almost two months.

Aoyama Nanami and he had long since thrown this matter to the back of their minds.

Until now, he still thought Aoyama Nanami was dating Kanda Sorata.

Little did he know, Aoyama Nanami had long since hated Kanda Sorata to death.

Inside the hospital's consultation hall.

It was clearly early autumn.

The temperature hadn't dropped yet and wasn't much lower than in summer.

Sakurajima Mai was wrapped in a thick, long down jacket, her cheeks were flushed red like a monkey's bottom, and she leaned against a chair with listless eyes.

Anyone looking at her could see Sakurajima Mai's sickly state; a breeze could blow her over.

But the most amazing thing was.

The nurses at the consultation desk in the consultation hall weren't very busy.

Sakurajima Mai was sitting within their field of vision, yet they acted as if they didn't see anyone and went about their own business.

An outstanding, youthful, and dazzling female celebrity in the crowd.

Abnormally, she was wrapped in a long blue down jacket that one would only wear in winter, a very cold winter.

It wasn't just the nurses at the consultation desk.

Including the passing patients, even an old lady sitting on Sakurajima Mai's left hand side didn't notice anything unusual.

That's right.

Sakurajima Mai was sick, very seriously sick.

But she came to the hospital just to "steal" some medicine to treat herself.

It was about half a year ago.

Sakurajima Mai discovered she had fallen into a strange state.

Sometimes, she would be deliberately ignored and overlooked by people...

At first, she didn't notice anything unusual because it wasn't serious.

She just took it as someone's oversight.

Later.

The strange state became more and more serious.

Three months ago.

After Sakurajima Mai finished filming in a closed set, she walked on the street and found that most people ignored her.

In those people's eyes, she was like air...

Sakurajima Mai was completely at a loss and was scared pale on the spot!

As time passed, the situation became more and more serious...

Even the person closest to her, the mother who gave birth to her, couldn't see her anymore.

Realizing that she was like handwriting on white paper, erased by an eraser, she had completely disappeared from this world.

Even small items she touched, such as grabbing a piece of bread or the clothes she wore, would disappear from the eyes of outsiders.

Sound wave radar... infrared, thermal imaging, etc...

Also couldn't scan or discover Sakurajima Mai, who had detached from this world!

Everyone didn't remember her and couldn't see her!

Terrified and helpless, Sakurajima Mai first locked herself in her room in pain and despair, stayed for a long time, and developed thoughts of suicide.

Walking to the roof of a hundred-story building, she only needed to take one step forward to escape the pain.

She hesitated, lacked the courage, and finally pulled herself together.

She chose to wear a sexy bunny girl uniform and appear in busy stations and streets.

Because if she dressed like this, if someone could discover her, they would definitely look over...

Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, New York, Paris, London...

It didn't work domestically, so she even went abroad...

Desperate, Sakurajima Mai returned to Japan and got sick.

Low mood, despair, body ravaged, biological clock... secretion disorder... exhaustion, flu, virus...

It could be a combination of factors.

Sakurajima Mai had a very high fever.

She went to the convenience store and took various medicines, but couldn't completely break the fever.

She would take medicine in the morning, and the fever would return at night.

Sakurajima Mai wrapped herself in a down jacket just to sweat it out and break the fever physically.

She didn't know why she came to the hospital to see a doctor.

No one could see her.

Sakurajima Mai was there to get IV fluids from the hospital to give herself an infusion.

If medicine didn't work, she'd get an injection!

She sat blankly for a long time.

Sakurajima Mai was so weak that even moving her arms was difficult, and she tremblingly took out the thermometer she had been holding for a long time.

"39.2 degrees."

A definitely high fever.

Seeing the number on the thermometer, Sakurajima Mai felt relieved instead.

Yesterday afternoon, she had burned up to 40 degrees.

She took a fever-reducing hormone pill and fell asleep in a daze; she might have even fainted from the fever.

Tremblingly putting away the thermometer, Sakurajima Mai weakly grabbed the armrest of the chair to stand up, and suddenly had a violent coughing fit.

Her eyes blurred, the world spun, and she fell directly.
