"This is as ridiculously spacious as the rumours say... No doubt about it, this is the Great Sage's Library." |
Beijing |
"Conductor, how's Shanghai doing?" |
Shanghai |
"Uuuugh..." |
Conductor |
When I looked at Shanghai on my back, she looks exhausted. Her breathing's laboured, and she seemed to be in a lot of pain. |
Beijing |
"I guess there's not a moment to lose." |
Tianjin |
"Bo-shi, I've looked all the way to the back. The coast seems to be clear at the moment." |
Beijing |
"Right, then let's hurry and find out what the cure is." |
Tianjin |
"This is our last hope. Let's find out for sure." |
Shanghai |
"I'm sorry, everyone..." |
Tianjin |
"What are you whining about? This isn't like you. Cheer up like you always do, Shanghai." |
Beijing |
"Shanghai. The doctors couldn't cure you and we can't find any cure in the library, but I'm sure we can find a cure here in the Great Sage's Library. So please don't give up." |
Shanghai |
"But, I can't take it anymore..." |
Shanghai |
"My final wish, please let me eat chocolate..." |
Tianjin |
"Not now. I'll let you eat as much as you want when you get better. So let's just hang in there." |
Beijing |
"........." |
Beijing |
"Tianjin, let her eat." |
Tianjin |
"But... that will make her condition even worse." |
Beijing |
"No, we already know that Shanghai says it's her final wish. If that's the case, you should let her eat." |
Tianjin |
"Bo-shi..." |
Tianjin |
"You're right. We should not stop her anymore and let her eat some." |
Tianjin |
"Bo-shi is right, it's the last time... If we don't give it to her when the time comes, there will only be regrets." |
Tianjin |
"Then, Shanghai, here. Enjoy it slowly." |
Shanghai |
"Thank you..." |
Beijing |
"Conductor, please look after Shanghai. We'll find a cure for her as soon as we can." |
Conductor |
Yeah, got it. I'll keep an eye on Shanghai. |
Shanghai |
"Thank you for the food." |
Tianjin |
"Shanghai, did you eat everything already?" |
Shanghai |
"Yes. It was so good, I couldn't resist. It's given me some energy back. Though, it's all over now." |
Beijing |
"I'll do everything I can to find a cure before then. There's a huge number of books here, but I'm sure there's something we can do." |
Tianjin |
"Please stay quiet here so that your condition doesn't get any worse." |
Shanghai |
"I understand, I'll stay put." |
After Shanghai's words, Beijing and Tianjin ran off to find books. Now we just have to hope that we can find a safe cure. If not, we can only wait--. |
Thinking about this, I turned around to see Shanghai standing right in front of me, who was supposed to be lying down a distance away. Wh-What's the matter, Shanghai? |
Shanghai |
"I thought I'm at my last moments. But I'm starting to feel different." |
Conductor |
...I see. Looks like your body is still fine, Shanghai. So rest easy. |
Shanghai |
"You know that's not what I'm talking about, don't you, Conductor?" |
Conductor |
No, I don't know what you're talking about. We're worried about your health from the start, Shanghai. |
Shanghai |
"Conductor. You can't fool my nose." |
Shanghai |
"You still have the chocolate, don't you?" |
Conductor |
Crud-- |
Shanghai |
"I knew it! Hey, give me more chocolate!" |
Conductor |
W-Wait a minute, Shanghai, don't touch me! |
Shanghai |
"Chocolate, give me chocolate--!" |
Shanghai forcibly placed her hand into my breast pocket to look for more chocolate. At that moment, Beijing and Tianjin returned. |
Tianjin |
"Conductor, did you perhaps took your eyes off Shanghai!? You must have known that this girl now would come looking for the hidden chocolate and take it away from you if you showed an opening!" |
Beijing |
"No, it was our mistake, we shouldn't have left him alone with Shanghai." |
Shanghai |
"Conductor, please, give me some chocolate, pleeeease!" |
Beijing |
"Tch, what a nasty case of Chocoholism you've got, Shanghai...!" |
