Knowing that those students who have been missing for several days have all been found, the leadership of Teikyo University and the Officials of the Tokyo Maritime Safety Administration finally felt relieved.

At the main gate of a large public Hospital in Kagoshima City, many reporters were piling around to get an interview. Because this was the Hospital where the authority put those students and tourists who were on the missing ferries.

At the Hotel where the Teikyo University students were staying, outside the third floor’s balcony, two people, a young man, and a young woman were talking.

“Where is Amy?”

“She completed the general check up in the hospital this morning, and now she is sleeping in my room?”

“I know my brother would come back safely.” Kazumi walked up to him and then gently leaned on his arm.

“I am sorry, for letting you worry about me.”

“I am okay as long as brother is safe and well.” Kazumi looked up to him and smiled.

But then, she suddenly remembered something. She stared right into his eyes, “Brother, I have something to ask you.”

“About Naoko?”

“Yes.” Since several days ago, when Naoko took a plane from Tokyo to come here especially to inquire about the news of her elder brother, Kazumi immediately knew that the relationship between Naoko and her brother was not as simple as the relationship between student and teacher.

“As you might have guessed it, she is you future sister in law.” Lei Yin said straight-facedly.

Although she already guessed it, hearing his answer, her heart could not help but turn cold.

“When did this happen?”

“Two years ago. I didn’t mean to deceive you. It’s just Naoko has not sufficiently prepared to meet you yet. Even Maeda only knew it by chance.”

Kazumi did not say anything. She was still digesting the impact of this news.

After a while, she said: “Then what about Rumi? You should have known of her feelings toward you.”

Lei Yin slowly leaned on the balcony railing, “She is just a child. I know she has some degree of goodwill toward me. But girls at her age having a certain degree of goodwill toward the opposite sex is very common. I have yet to tell her this in order not to affect her study. After all, she is trying hard to prepare for the college entrance exams so I don’t want her to be distracted by other things.”

Kazumi nervously took his hand and said: “Brother, that’s not true. The feelings that Rumi has for you is definitely not as simple as you think, she is….” Before she finished her words, Lei Yin’s phone suddenly rang.

Lei Yin pulled out his phone, looked at the caller’s name, and immediately pressed the answer key.

“I am on the balcony outside your room. I am going back there, wait for me at the room.”

After he put his phone back in his pocket, Lei Yin apologetically said to Kazumi: “Naoko woke up, I need to go back.”

Kazumi has to nod her head.

When Lei Yin walked into her room, “Lei!” When she saw him, Naoko immediately rushed into his arms, her two arms firmly clung onto him.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m right here.” Lei Yin put his arms around her and gently comforted her with a soothing voice.

“I, I just had a nightmare, dreaming that you were washed away by the sea, but when I woke up and can’t see you….” Naoko tearfully looked at him.

After he picked her up and then sat on the bed, Lei Yin put her in his arms and gently stroke her back, “Don’t worry, I have come back.”

Smelling the familiar breath of her lover, Naoko began to slowly calm down.
