Dimensional Chat Room

Chapter 143 Do you believe in miracles?

Clear light shines quietly in the clean and tidy ward. Two blooming sunflowers are planted on blue porcelain plates on the window sill. The flowers smile cheerfully towards the sun.

"Brother, is school interesting?" The speaker was a little girl sitting on the hospital bed, wearing a pink hospital gown and a white sheet covering half of her body.

"I'm not going." The boy who answered was the boy next to the bed. He had the same hair color as the little girl. He was sitting on a round chair, supporting himself on the chair with his hands together, trying hard to smile. I was called aside by the doctor just now. He said that Hatsune's condition has reached an irreversible point, unless a miracle happens...

Miracle, if a miracle really happened, the disease would not befall Miku. My sister is different from me. She is full of enthusiasm for life, full of yearning for the future, and can smile at any time.

Yes, it is completely different from myself who doesn’t even know why I am alive. If possible, I really want to lie in the ward instead of Otonashi, someone like me.

"Why don't you go?" the little girl asked innocently.

"There's no point in going there for a person with a bad mind like me."

"Really? I really want to go, go to school."

"Here." Yuzuru Otonashi lifted up the white plastic bag with three magazines inside.

Every time at this time, Otonashi Miku would smile and say thank you, and it was only at this moment that Yuzuru felt that she was truly alive.

Boom boom.

A knock on the door that had never been visited by anyone else sounded in a different rhythm than the nurse's knock on the door.

"Yo."

Ye You stood at the door holding flowers and fruits. Qiong weakly poked out a small head from behind Ye You, with long silver hair pouring down.

"Are you...?" Otonashi Yuzuru turned his head, a questioning look on his inorganic face, as if he was confused as to why a stranger appeared.

"Brother Ye You." Hatsune shouted happily towards this side.

"Hatsune-chan, are you feeling better?" Ye Youxiao put the visit item on the bedside. After the little girl hummed hard, he stretched out his hand towards Otonashi Yuzuru: "Ye You. Otonashi-san, in order to find you I spent a lot of effort."

"Ah, hello." Yuzuru stretched out his hand passively and mechanically, as if he hadn't interacted with anyone for a long time.

"Brother Ye You came to the hospital yesterday." Hatsune said.

"Thank you." Yuzuru's hair is very long, and his slanted bangs almost cover half of his face, making him look very lethargic.

Facing Yuzuru's still doubtful eyes, Ye You explained: "I am the class chairman. Because Otonashi has never been interested in school, everyone is worried, so I was entrusted here."

"Thank you." Yuzuru's slightly inorganic face was slightly touched, and he continued to repeat these two words.

Simple announcement.

With gratitude.

"This is my sister, Kasugano Qiong." Ye You introduced.

"Hello." Otonashi Yuzuru nodded towards Qiong. Then he stood aside.

"Brother." Hatsune called to Yuzuru, and Yuzuru, who was still a little dazed, quickly walked aside and cut up the apple.

"Sorry, I don't have anything to entertain you."

"Otonashi is too polite. There is no way to entertain visitors to the hospital." Ye You indicated that Otonashi didn't need to be too polite.

Qiong has been standing quietly behind Ye You, but sometimes he secretly glances at the little girl on the hospital bed. Hatsune also looks over, and their eyes meet. The little girl smiles innocently, but Qiong turns his gaze at a loss. Put aside. This makes Miku feel even more interesting. This big sister is so cute.

After a brief exchange, Ye You and Otonashi Yuzuru went outside the ward. Qiong wanted to follow them out, but was stopped by Ye You's eyes and stayed in the room.

"Sister Qiong, do you want to read comics?" Hatsune handed over a new magazine. The little girl said: "My favorite thing every day is reading comics."

"It's not my favorite." Qiong looked at the little girl, as if he saw the protagonist of the year, who could only stay in the ward, the cold room, the smell of disinfectant, and the disgusting feeling.

Qiong said: "We can only do these things."

"Ah, yes. I can only read comics every day. I am also very happy chatting with my brother." The little girl kept smiling. Although she was suffering from illness, she never showed a look of giving up.

"As for me." Qiong looked at Hatsune, his eyes softening: "I used to stay in the hospital."

On the other side, Ye You and Yuxuan came to the corridor away from the ward. The conversation here will never reach over there.

"It's very hard." Although it is a question, it is an affirmative tone.

Yuzuru neither denied nor affirmed this statement. He just lowered his head, his expression obscured by his too-long bangs.

"Just relying on the money you earn from working every day can't give Hatsune a good life."

These words finally made Yuzuru's gray eyes light up slightly.

"Then... what should I do? What can I do?" Yuzuru clenched his fists tightly, and his nails dug into his flesh. Miku's life is running out, maybe she will die next month or next week. Besides staying with her in her last days, what else can I do?

"Isn't Hatsune still here now? What does it mean if I give up hope first?"

Ah, what do you know? He just stood aside and said innocuous words, pretending to be sympathetic. As soon as this idea came out of Yuzuru's mind, he was immediately killed by him, followed by strong self-loathing.

——What on earth am I thinking about?

With a bang, Yuzuru's fist hit the hard wall hard, and the dull pain continued to stimulate the paralyzed brain nerves.

Yuzuru supported the wall, and a trace of scarlet blood seeped out on the white wall: "I'm sorry, I just..."

"It's okay, I can understand your mood."

Ye You didn't care about his actions. It would be better to say that what I said here was too ill-considered. Although he knew that Miku could be saved, Yuzuru thought that his sister was terminally ill and incurable.

"Let's make a bet."

Ye You's words made Yuzuru raise his lowered head slightly. The figure opposite had his back to the light, so from Yuzuru's perspective, it was very dazzling.

"If Hatsune's condition can improve, come to school."

"..." I don't understand. Yuzuru was completely confused. Is there any warmth at all? Can there be kindness from strangers without asking for anything in return?

But the hospital's verdict has been handed down. Hatsune is terminally ill.

"Do you believe in the existence of miracles?" Ye You asked.

Yuzuru remained silent.

Then in the sunshine, I heard this sound,

"As long as you don't give up, I believe that miracles will definitely exist."
