A young man came in from outside with vegetables in his hands. As soon as he came in, he found that there was one more person in the room, and he looked a little familiar.

Ning Yu also put down the teacup in her hand and looked towards the door.

She knew this person, and it turned out to be the guy who sold her the electric piano.

His strange clothes disappeared and his exaggerated hairstyle turned into ordinary medium-short hair.

It seems that she has removed her earrings and lip studs. Her whole temperament seems to have changed, and that unique feeling is gone.

He was carrying a guitar bag on his back, looking like he had just returned from a performance.

"Hey, is that you?"

He walked into the living room, then put down the guitar he was holding and put it aside.

"Xiao Lian, do you know each other?"

Wan Lian, who was standing next to him, picked up the teacup and teapot and made him a cup of tea as well.

"Yes, she is from the exploration team. She was helping me investigate my brother's affairs."

Wan Lian was also a little confused. Although the Ark base was quite small, it couldn't be such a coincidence, right? "So you are here again?"

"Oh~ I sold my digital piano to her before."

The young man pointed at Ning Yu and gestured.

Ning Yu felt like she had gotten used to this kind of coincidence, and smiled as she asked the boy who was about to drink tea:

"Why didn't you give up your little hobby?"

She felt a little curious because she clearly remembered that day that this man had decided to give up and planned to find an ordinary job in the base.

The boy seemed to have known that Ning Yu was going to ask this question, and answered: "Well, actually I only gave up for one day. On the second day after I took over the cargo delivery job at Fang Zhou, I secretly went to the square to perform alone after work."

"Come to think of it, if you hadn't played with me that day, I might have really given up."

He smiled at Ning Yu.

Ning Yu thought after hearing this: ordinary people like him can also do the job of transporting goods, but because it is very dangerous, they usually have to work in a group.

Unlike Wan Heng, who is an awakened person, he can transport the goods alone.

But because it is very dangerous, Ark also offers high rewards. There will always be people willing to take such risks to get high returns.

Some of them are similar to the way Sanhe God plays, where you can eat for several days after opening for one day.

It’s just that the Sanhe master is just lying down, while this job is a life-threatening one.

"Then I unexpectedly discovered that even though survival was a problem, there were still people willing to listen to my singing."

He felt a little embarrassed, as if he was not doing his job properly. Others were trying to make a living, but he was singing for a living.

Ning Yu turned around and looked at Wan Lian next to her: "What's going on with you guys?"

Looking at the situation of these two people, it seems that they are living together? It's progressing rapidly.

Wait, there won’t be more dog food, will there? There has been a lot of dog food lately!

When Wan Lian heard Ning Yu's question, she glanced at the boy who was still drinking tea with some embarrassment and said, "After the failure that day, I went out to wander around. In fact, I wanted to jump out from the height of the Ark at first."

"Then I saw him over there, sitting on the ground playing the guitar and singing for everyone, with quite a few people surrounding him."

"To be honest, it sounds pretty good. I haven't heard anyone sing for a long time since this disaster began. It always feels like a luxury."

She fiddled with the corner of her clothes and spoke slowly.

"Ah, it was a coincidence that day. I saw that she looked distraught, so I walked over and asked her what song she wanted to listen to."

Having said that, the young man took over the conversation and continued speaking.

"She just shook her head and turned to leave. At that moment I had a bad feeling."

"Then I pulled her aside and asked her to listen to at least one song, one of which I really liked."

The boy's eyes sparkled, as if he had returned to that afternoon.

"Oh? What did you sing to her?"

Hearing this question, Ning Yu also became curious. What kind of song brought the two people together and made the girl give up the idea of ​​committing suicide?

When the young man heard Ning Yu's question, his eyes lit up, he picked up the guitar from the side, and said eagerly:

"Would you like to listen to it?"

Ning Yu thought about it and since there seemed to be nothing to do at the moment, she nodded slowly.

Before Ning Yu agreed, he had already put his hand on the guitar and played a simple prelude with a hint of sadness.

"I prefer Akita's own version, sung with guitar, to Ms. Nakajima's version."

As he played, he explained something, but Ning Yu didn't know what he was going to play, so she didn't understand the name he said.

[I once wanted to end it all because of the seagulls crying at the pier.]

[I once wanted to end it all because the apricot blossoms were in full bloom on my birthday. ]

As soon as the lyrics came out, Ning Yu felt touched. What a sad scene and reason. Wouldn't she want to hear it more? The following content is more like some trivial things in life: the falling sunlight, the dead bodies of insects, the lighthouse at the fishing port, the abandoned bicycle, and herself kneeling on the bed to apologize to the past . All kinds of images weave a scene full of despair.

[I am Don Quixote, fighting invisible enemies in this room the size of six tatami mats.]

Fighting against invisible enemies Ning Yu pondered over this line of lyrics and looked at Wan Lian beside her. Perhaps she knew what "invisible enemies" meant.

[I cry for being loved because I know the warmth of human beings. ]

When this line of lyrics was sung, the story seemed to begin to take a turn.

It seemed like there was a person who appeared in the story, and it was that person who made everything hopeful again.

[I once wanted to end it all, but then I saw your beautiful and brilliant smile. ]

[I always think about death, it must be because I have lived seriously, right? ]

Wan Lian beside him was also listening carefully. Suddenly, he poked Ning Yu's hand and said seriously:

“I really like the last few lines of this song.”

As the boy's voice gradually became lower, Ning Yu thought the song was about to end, but it was also at this time that the song reached its climax.

[I once thought about ending it all, but I haven't met you yet. ]

[Because of people like you, I have a better impression of the world. 】

[Because of people like you, I finally have hope for the world. 】

Ning Yu pursed her lips and said nothing. She listened quietly to the final ending with Wan Lian, and then she couldn't help but applaud him.

So that’s it, “but I haven’t met you yet.”

This song talks about the most desperate things, but also conveys the most hopeful things.

Ning Yu tilted her head to look at Wan Lian, who had tears in her eyes, and the boy who was scratching his head embarrassedly and starting to put away his guitar.

"How's it going? Am I singing okay?"

The young man walked over, took out a clean handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Wan Lian, and asked Ning Yu, who he regarded as a professional, for his opinion.

Ning Yu nodded and made a few comments casually.

In fact, compared to technical skills, perhaps it is more contagious to sing the right song to the right person at the right time.

Compared to now, Wan Lian must have felt something that day that no one else could feel. It was a happy moment that only she could have, and no one else could experience it.

That's why she was sitting here today, talking to them with a smile.

In the end, the boy did not give up his little hobby.

Wan Lian did not give up her life in the end.

These two things seemed to be related to myself: if I had not stopped Wan Lian's first suicide, if I had not bought the electric piano and played a song with the boy.

Would the story be completely different? Admittedly, this is a coincidence, but Ning Yu prefers such coincidences to those sad things.

Just like a line she liked very much: There are no miracles in this world, only necessity and coincidence, and who did what.
