For the next three days, from Tuesday to Friday, Hoshino Sora took time off at noon every day to go to the elementary school in the city next door to look for Shiho.
We went to Rice Flower City, Shuangbao City, and even Toriya City a little further away, but found nothing. Miyano Shiho seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
"It seems that Miyano Shiho's parents really went to work in another city." Kudo Shinichi patted Hoshino Sora's shoulder and said regretfully.
Miyano Shiho, can't be found.
Hoshino Sora's face was blank, and his eyes lost their brightness again. The hope that had been supporting him was now shattered, and an unprecedented emptiness surged in and enveloped him.
"Hey, Kong, are you okay?" Kudo Shinichi asked with concern.
"Oh, it's okay, I want to go home." Hoshino Sora's voice was a little low, and his mood was not high.
"Okay, I'm really tired from running these days. Doctor, please send Akon back first." Kudo Shinichi said to Dr. Agasa.
Dr. Ari saw Hoshino Sora's current state through the rearview mirror and was a little worried. This was the first time he saw Hoshino Sora in such a depressed state.
The little boy who was usually lively and energetic, as if he had endless power as he said, was now in a slump.
"How about we go have a nice meal." Dr. Ali suggested.
Maybe delicious food can wake up Hoshino Sora.
"Huh?" Hoshino Sora's eyes that lost their luster brightened a little. He thought for a moment and shook his head, "Forget it, I don't have much appetite... Well, doctor, let's buy two burgers, just two. "
Kudo Shinichi: "..."
Haha, what a loss of appetite.
Dr. Ali smiled and said: "No problem."
So, Dr. Ali took the two of them to a Burger King chain store and treated them to a luxurious hamburger set meal.
After finishing the delicious burger, Hoshino Sora seemed to be energized and his previous sluggishness was swept away.
"Sure enough, only delicious food can wake him up." Dr. Ali thought while eating junk food without any scruples.
After eating and drinking, Dr. Agasa sent Hoshino Sora back to Shirahama's house, and then he specifically explained the situation to Shirahama Saori, "In the end, we still couldn't find the girl, so Sora will be a little bit disappointed now. .”
After hearing this, Shirahama Saori was very emotional, "I understand, we will enlighten him. Thank you, doctor. I have troubled you so much these days. I don't know how to thank you. Why don't you stay today and I will prepare the dinner?" …”
"No, no, no, no, it's just a small matter." Dr. Ali waved his hands repeatedly, and finally, under the kindness, he had to tell the truth, "Honestly, I had already eaten before I came here, and I really couldn't eat anymore."
"I see, then you must come over next time you have time. Kudo-san is also coming over." Shirahama Saori felt a little regretful and then extended an invitation.
"Definitely, definitely next time." Kudo Shinichi nodded.
Dr. Agasa said goodbye to Saori Shirahama and Sora Hoshino with a smile, and then went back with Kudo Shinichi.
…
"I'm full." Hoshino Sora put down the bowls and chopsticks and silently left the table.
"Hey, my cousin only ate two bowls of rice today. It's incredible." Shirahama Honoka looked shocked and couldn't believe it.
Normally you shouldn't eat until the end, wait until everyone has finished eating, and then finish the meal? What happened to your kidney? Is this my cousin?
Shirahama Saori felt relieved, "A good friend from Akong Nursery School has left. He has been looking for her these past few days, but in the end he was not able to meet her."
"So that's it." Shirahama Honoka suddenly realized.
Kenichi Shirahama, who was devouring his meal, was stunned for a moment. It turned out that there was still such a thing, mainly because he had also encountered a series of magical things recently. He was already overwhelmed, so he had no time to care about his little cousin.
Hoshino Miyako tilted her head, unable to understand the sadness of a good friend leaving because she had never been troubled by such a thing.
Hoshino Chizuru put down the bowl and chopsticks, "There is not even a CD of his favorite steak. It seems that the death of his friend has a great impact on him. I will enlighten him."
With that said, she got up and walked outside the yard, where she saw Hoshino Sora who was lying on the open-air corridor looking at the sky.
"Akora." Hoshino Chizuru called softly as he walked down the corridor and sat next to Hoshino Sora.
"Mom." Hoshino Sora sat up, still not very interested.
"Still sad about your friend leaving?" Hoshino Chizuru asked softly.
"I'm not sad, and there's no pain in my body, it's just...ah, I can't describe it." Hoshino Sora scratched his scalp, feeling very distressed.
"Fool, sadness does not necessarily have to be manifested in physical pain, but also in psychological discomfort." Hoshino Chizuru smiled and rubbed Hoshino Sora's head, "Mom understands the sadness after a friend leaves, so, I can understand how you feel now."
"This is human nature and normal. We will definitely encounter this situation as we grow up. This is growth."
"So, when encountering this situation, you have to look at the bright side. The reason why your friend left is for a better life. Should we bless her? What's more, today's parting is for tomorrow's meeting. The future is full of It’s possible, it’s only a matter of time before we meet.”
Hoshino Sora raised his head and looked at Hoshino Chizuru and asked: "Can we still meet? But Shinichi and I searched all the nearby elementary schools and couldn't find her... Shinichi said that her parents went to a distant place. We We will never meet again."
"The future has infinite possibilities. Who dares to predict the future?" Hoshino Chizuru certainly knows that once her playmates in the nursery leave, it will most likely be goodbye forever, but it is impossible for her to say this, sometimes with good intentions The lie would be better, "Why are there miracles in this world? Just because the impossible becomes possible! Akong, do you believe in miracles?"
"Miracle..." Hoshino Sora muttered this word repeatedly.
"It's like you have the power of prehistoric times. This is a miracle." Hoshino Chizuru felt ashamed, and he was ashamed of what he said.
Is it really okay to deceive like this? The power of the ancient world was originally created by the magic stick, but now it is used to fool A Kong...
However, this is the first time since she became a mother that her child has encountered this kind of problem, and she has little experience.
"We still need to communicate more with my sister and exchange experiences." Hoshino Chizuru thought in his mind.
"The power of prehistoric times...miracles..." Xing Yekong thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, our world is full of miracles." Hoshino Chizuru continued to encourage him a few more words. After seeing that Hoshino Sora was not so depressed, he stopped disturbing him and went to Shirahama Saori to exchange parenting experiences.
After she left, Shirahama Honoka and Shirahama Kenichi also came to comfort and enlighten me. Finally, even Hoshino Miyako, who didn’t understand hurt parting at all, also came to comfort her, “Aku, I heard that as long as you exercise, you can vent your emotions. I tried it when I was depressed. Whenever I thought about something embarrassing, I would do push-ups against the wall, and the effect was very good."
