The life of the Sugita family should be described by the word "wonderful".From the perspective of others, the life of the Sugita family has not changed at all.A middle-aged man who lost his wife in a traffic accident is living a happy life with his daughter, almost everyone would think so.However, this is a family of three, and the life they live can only be described by the word "family of three". It's already March.Exactly one month has passed since Sami Nami suddenly returned to Heisuke and the others. "Tomorrow morning, it is estimated that Sami Nami may show up." Naoko said while eating dinner.There was a slight nervous look on her face.

"Are you sure?" Heisuke asked, putting down his bowl and chopsticks. "I said possible." Ping Jie nodded.When she said that, Sami Nami would definitely appear.In Naoko's own words, a premonition that cannot be expressed in words will arise in her mind. "Then what shall we do?" he asked. "Just let her go to school like that. She asked for that before, saying that if she wakes up on weekdays, let her go to school. I don't think she will panic at school." Recently, Naoko and Sami Nami started communicating by taking turns keeping diaries in that diary.In this way, Sami Nami has gained a very detailed understanding of past and present conditions.

"How to get to the school, the location of the classroom, the looks and names of the classmates, etc., is she all right?" Hirasuke wanted to confirm. "I've already taught her everything, and she herself said she remembered it." "In this way, the remaining problem is to attend class." "There shouldn't be a problem with that." "That's right, it seems that she really has no problem. This is incredible. A few days ago, I saw Sami Nami doing math problems in the first year of high school here. She said she didn't know why, anyway, the solution, the meaning of the symbol Wait, she knows it all."

"It's unbelievable!" Naoko also tilted her neck and said. Sami Nami had no idea what happened in the five years after the accident.But what is surprising is that she has mastered the knowledge that Naoko has acquired through study.Therefore, even though Sami Nami was a fifth-grade elementary school student before, she is now able to solve high school exercises; she basically did not know a few English words before, but now she can do high school English problems. "I don't know why, anyway, I know." Sai Nami said. In this regard, Hirasuke and Naoko also made their own speculations.The consciousness of Naoko and Sami Nami is probably generated in different parts of the brain, so they can be aware of each other's independent existence.The two different consciousnesses also allowed them to have their own memories of personal experiences.

However, the knowledge acquired through learning should be stored in the part of the brain shared by both people.Therefore, the knowledge that Naoko has learned can also be used by Sami Nami. After hearing this speculation from Heisuke, Sami Nami said: "From now on, let mother be in charge of studying, and I will be in charge of playing." I wonder what kind of answer Naoko will give to this in the diary. "Then will there be a replacement between the two of you at school?" Heisuke asked. "How should I put it, Sami Nami has been awake for longer and longer recently, and she should be able to hold out for up to 6 hours. However, for the sake of caution, I still tell her that she can sleep if she wants to sleep during lunch break. In addition, you have to let She wrote down everything that happened in the morning in her diary before she went to bed, otherwise the sudden handover would catch me off guard."

"It's enough for you. So that diary is part of your brain." Hearing what Heisuke said, Naoko nodded solemnly. "It's just like that, like Korsakov syndrome." "what? What?" "Korsakov Syndrome is a disease of extremely low memory. People with this disease will forget what just happened. If they want to live like ordinary people, they must rely on notepads. They have to The actions, things they see and hear are recorded in detail one by one. When they are going to do something, they must read the notebook first. For example, after getting out of the public bath, they must first look at the notebook to confirm If you don't do this, they are likely to go in and wash again. Me and Sami Nami are like that kind of people. However, we only do this when we are handing over, so it is better than They take it easy."

"Besides," Naoko added, "I don't think the hard work in this area will last too long." "why?" "It's nothing... just a feeling." Naoko put the dishes on the tray and walked to the kitchen.Looking at the figure of Naoko washing the dishes, Heisuke has mixed feelings in his heart. From what she said just now, he understood what Naoko wanted to express. Sami Nami's waking hours are getting longer and longer, which means that Naoko's waking hours will be shorter and shorter.Indeed, Sami Nami has been able to hold on for hours as soon as she wakes up recently.This time is also the time spent by real father and daughter.In this regard, Hirasuke has no reason not to feel high.But at the same time, he also realized that he was really losing something.

He doesn't want to lose both, but that's just wishful thinking on his part. Sami Nami didn't have any trouble on her first day at school.When Pingsuke came home that day, Naoko was already cooking dinner and waiting for him.According to her, Sami Nami didn't fall asleep until she got home.After entering the house, she was probably really tired, so she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.Not long after she fell asleep, Naoko appeared. "According to what she said in her diary, she can keep up with her in class, and she talks naturally with her classmates. She had a very happy day at school." Heisuke reported with joy from the bottom of his heart.

From that day on, Sami Nami will go to school every three or four days.And this frequency soon became once every two days.When the spring break is about to start, it will be Sami Nami who goes to school almost every day.However, it may be due to the relatively high mental pressure. She always falls asleep after returning home every day, so when Heisuke returns home from get off work every day, Naoko must be waiting for him.Heisuke can only see Sami Nami for a short time in the morning, plus Saturday evening and all day Sunday. "In this case, it's no different from before Sami Nami appeared." Heisuke muttered.

After hearing that, Naoko raised her eyes and said, "It's like that for you, but I can't take it anymore. As soon as I open my eyes, I have to prepare dinner, and after dinner, I have to do Sami Nami's homework, and then go to bed Yes. And after waking up, what is waiting for me is to prepare dinner and do my homework. These things are repeated every day. It would be great if she could help with a little bit. Besides, homework should be done by herself. .” Needless to say, Sami Nami also has her own opinion: "It's not easy for me. I still want to watch TV, but I don't have the time at all, so I can only endure it. I have to go to school when I open my eyes, and I have to watch TV when I get home. I have to go to bed, wake up and go to school again. It’s a simple repetition every day. Sometimes I think, if it’s so troublesome, it’s better to live in the school. I also know that it’s a bit embarrassing to ask my mother to do homework, but Mom can't be more tired than me, right? I'm the one who needs to listen carefully to the class and fill my head with things, and my mother only needs to write the things I put in in the homework book."

Although in an unbelievable situation, Heisuke now enjoys listening to their complaints.Although the body that confides to him is the same, he still fully experiences the happiness and warmth of a family of three. Not long into spring break, the two of them, Naoko and Sami Nami, make a risky decision. They took part in the ski trip organized by the class, the itinerary was three nights and four days.The day of departure happened to be the same day as the accident, though neither of them mentioned it. These four days were spent alone.Although he was also worried, he believed that their particularity would not be exposed to others.He now fully believes in the tacit understanding between the two.It was only when Naoko accompanied Sami Nami on a trip.With her mother by her side, Sami Nami can't do whatever she wants, and she will definitely complain about it.Thinking of this, Hirasuke was secretly happy.There were calls from the ski resort every night, and it was Naoko who called every time. "This kid is killing me. It hurts everywhere every night. Besides, she spends money recklessly, and her purse is empty now. Looks like I'll have to talk about her in my diary tonight." Heisuke on the phone whispered in his heart: Nami Saomi must have a lot of complaints too!
