Chapter 056 Chapter 56
When Miyuki saw Reino, she shouted Reino's name from a distance without any doubt and ran towards her.
'Reino' also saw Miyuki, and her left hand holding the knife slowly moved back and hid it behind her. After observing that there was no one else around her, the double body Reino tucked the knife at the back of her waist and hid it under her shirt.
The short, sharp blade fits the skin at an angle and is generally fine as long as you don't make big movements.
Anyway, it's just a temporary hiding.
Seeing Miyuki running towards her, Reino also showed a scared and worried expression: "Miyuki, I finally see you. Where's Rimi?"
Miyuki shook her head: "I was just chasing you. When I turned around, I couldn't see Limei anymore. Let's go find her together."
Ling No nodded: "Okay."
After that, she pointed to the mountain and said, "I saw a girl walking up the mountain before. It's very likely Li Mei. Let's go to the mountain to find her."
"Hey? Why is she going to the mountain?" Although Miyuki looked puzzled, she nodded in agreement.
The two girls walked up the mountain path. Miyuki looked around carefully and said, "Rinno, why did you run so fast before? Did you see the woman in the red dress again?"
Ling Nai hunched her shoulders: "Well, I turned around and saw it... It was really terrible. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to separate from you..."
"It doesn't matter." Miyuki hesitated for a moment, then said, "Well... Reno, why don't we wait for the train? You see, we are all separated now, and we can't do anything. I think life is more important."
"Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm sorry for taking it for granted before."
"It's okay." Miyuki was relieved when she saw that Reino no longer insisted. "After we get out, let's go and apologize to him for not being able to perform as promised. Even though he may not believe that we entered Kisaragi Station."
Ling Nai said "yes" vaguely.
Miyuki didn't look at Reino's expression, so she didn't notice the indifferent look on Reino's face when talking about the performance.
"We will have to pay a certain amount of compensation, but it doesn't matter. We will all work together and persevere no matter how difficult it is." Miyuki still spoke to herself.
"Reino" didn't even make a sound of agreement. She was indifferent to everything Miyuki said about underground idols.
"I hope Li Mei is safe." Miyuki continued to chant. She saw a faint figure in the darkness ahead and excitedly grabbed Ling No's hand, "Ling No, look, there's someone ahead!"
The moment her wrist was grabbed, Ling Nai almost reached for the knife on her waist, but fortunately she realized her current identity in time.
She is a poor Lingno, not a hunter.
Ling Nai slowly put down her hands and looked forward.
Her night vision was much better than Miyuki's. There were three figures in front of her, the guys she had seen before.
"Let's hurry over there!" Miyuki said excitedly, and she pulled Reno forward.
Okita Shinro and others in front also heard the footsteps coming from behind. They were very alert, and when they heard the footsteps accelerating towards them, they immediately grabbed branches and stones from the ground.
Miyuki and Reino came in front of Okita Shinro and the others, and saw that they were ready to fight at any time. Miyuki was shocked: "It's me! Reino and I came here together on the train!"
In the darkness, Okita Shinro distinguished the faces of Miyuki and Reino, but he still held the stone in his hand and said, "Stay away from us."
Miyuki looked confused.
"There is a doppelganger." Yanagida Maiko explained, pointing at the wolf-like Aburano Hideto, "Did you see this guy? He is the real Aburano Hideto. The one who left with you before was a fake, his doppelganger."
Miyuki obviously knew about the urban legend of doppelgangers, and her face turned pale immediately. She looked at Aburano Hideto, whose clothes were tattered and who looked timid and shrunken, with a miserable look as if he had been severely tortured.
He looks similar to the previous Aburano Hideto who ran away screaming, but he is not as confident as the later Aburano Hideto.
Miyuki immediately believed that the person in front of her was a real person.
"Then isn't Rimi in danger!" Miyuki said in a panic, "We separated from her, and Reino ran away after seeing the woman in the red dress. I chased Reino and left Rimi and Aburano Hideto behind. That's why she never caught up with us..."
Okita Shinro said sternly: "If you are the real person and you are telling the truth, then Ms. Rimi might be..."
He didn't finish his words. Miyuki understood what he meant and immediately covered her face and burst into tears.
"It's all my fault. If only I hadn't abandoned her." Miyuki cried.
Yanagida Mayuko frowned: "If we haven't confirmed the person yet, something must have happened."
Miyuki stopped crying, and a little light appeared in her eyes. She nodded and said, "Rimi is very strong, she will be fine. Right, Reino?"
Ling Nai hummed.
"I want to ask you something." Okita Shinro looked at Reino, "When you were chasing this lady, did you ever lose her?"
Miyuki was a little dazed, and then she realized what Okita Shinro meant, and shook her head quickly: "Reino can't be fake, I am very familiar with Reino, she..." Miyuki paused, and she turned to look at Reino.
'Ling Nai': "What's wrong?"
Miyuki bit her lip and whispered, "I just found Reino." As she spoke, she let go of Reino's hand and slowly moved to the side.
In fact, she was not sure whether the person next to her was real or fake, but because he was a friend, she chose to trust him at first sight.
When the excitement faded and she regained her senses, she realized that when they were walking up the mountain together, Ling Nai didn't say anything when she mentioned tomorrow's performance and apology.
Are you too tired or too scared?
The biggest reason why the three of them, who are so unpopular and unpopular, have been pursuing their dreams until now is Reino, whose passion for becoming an idol and her desire to be on stage far surpass those of the two of them. It is also because of Reino's constant encouragement and motivation that Miyuki and Rimi have worked hard to persevere until now.
If we really have to say who is the backbone among the three, it must be Ling Nai.
"Hey, Reino." Miyuki looked at Reino, her eyes pleading, "For the song we're going to perform on stage tomorrow, which beat do you think is wrong and needs to be changed?"
Ling No looked at Miyuki and said under everyone's silent gaze: "There is no beat that needs to be changed. What needs to be adjusted is your dance steps. You always can't keep up with the rhythm."
Miyuki smiled faintly and nodded: "Yes, you are right."
'Ling Nai': "Of course, we are partners..."
"You are not Reino." Miyuki distanced herself from 'Reino'. She shook her head and took a few steps back, tears rolling down her cheeks. "The night before the performance, Reino would only say to me 'You did a perfect job'. Because she knew that praising me would help me relieve my nervousness and perform better on stage."
The doppelganger knows a lot about the original, but the doppelganger is not the original and cannot agree with the original in everything. At least, being considerate of a friend's feelings is not the first thing the doppelganger would think of.
If the doppelganger is given time to grow, she will probably learn this.
Not yet, this has become a flaw.
Ling No looked at Miyuki getting further and further away from her, sighed, and took out the knife hidden at her waist: "It's a pity that you were discovered."
"Where is the real Reino! Where did she go?" Miyuki seemed very excited.
Ling Nai frowned, with an impatient expression on her face: "I want to know too. I can be sure that she is not dead yet. If she is dead, I will definitely know."
Miyuki's expression relaxed slightly. She's not dead, that's good.
As long as the person is still alive, he will definitely find it.
"Please leave." Okita Shinro stared at the knife in Reino's hand and tightened his grip on the stone.
"Humph, you're not my target anyway." Ling Nai turned around and walked away nonchalantly.
Compared to this group of irrelevant people, the existence of the original body is more annoying. She wants to find the real Ling Noi. Only after killing her can she become the real Ling Noi.
Ling Nai, holding the knife, turned around and walked away. Instead of following the mountain road, he went into the forest beside the road and disappeared in an instant.
After she left, Miyuki's legs went weak and she squatted on the ground, then looked at Okita Shinro and others with pleading eyes.
Alone, she longed for companionship.
Maiko Yanagida looked at Shinro Okita and said, "What should we do? We can't be sure if this guy is a doppelganger or not. What if she and that guy are just acting?"
Even so, Okita Shinro didn't want to just chase them away, as it would seem too cold-blooded. After thinking it over, he said to Miyuki, "Stay more than three meters away from us, don't follow us too closely."
Miyuki nodded: "Okay."
"Are you going up the mountain? Reino... the doppelganger Reino said she saw someone going up the mountain." Miyuki paused and continued, "I thought it was Limei, but now that I think about it, it might be you she saw."
"Not necessarily." Okita Shinro said, "The doppelganger will keep a close eye on the original. She said she wanted to go up the mountain. She must have guessed that the real Reino was on the mountain. That's why she wanted to go there."
"So, can I find Reino in the mountains?" Miyuki's eyes lit up.
"Who knows, maybe." Okita Shinro said vaguely. He didn't dare to make a definite statement, it was just a guess.
Miyuki seemed relaxed. As long as there was a possibility, she was willing to believe it. Miyuki also hoped that the three of them could leave here together. It had nothing to do with the idol group. She just didn't want to lose her two good friends.
After walking forward for about ten minutes, Okita Shinro, who was in the front, stopped and saw the dark red torii.
"We're finally here." Hideto Aburano excitedly took a step forward but was stopped by Shinro Okita.
"Be polite." Okita Shinro said. He always remembered Bai Yixin's words.
Yanagida Maiko was at a loss: "Courtesy, what do you mean?"
Shinro Okita: "According to the New Year's worship rules, be a polite person."
He wasn't sure if this was what Bai Yixin meant, but in any case, it wouldn't be wrong to follow etiquette.
