218 I turned toward it. I needed to be sure. I couldn’t have possibly misheard. But until I saw it myself, I wouldn’t believe it. She chuckled to herself. “That Miyagi girl really is a good-for-nothing.” Miyagi put her arm around my neck and hugged me. --- “I’m back, Mr. Kusunoki. ...I was looking for you.” I reflexively hugged her back, smelling her hair. That smell was one with my sense of “Miyagi.” It was indeed her. I wasn’t the only one having trouble digesting the situation. Many of the people around were similarly bewildered and amazed. They were probably thinking, “Wasn’t this Miyagi girl supposed to not exist?” I was stunned into silence when I saw their reaction. Everyone could see Miyagi. “Might you be Ms. Miyagi?”, a man in a jersey timidly asked. “Yes, I’m the good-for-nothing Miyagi,” she answered, and the man slapped me on the shoulder. “Thank goodness!”, he laughed. “What do you know, she really exists. And you’re really pretty, Ms. Miyagi! I’m jealous!”
219 But I still didn’t understand what was going on. Why was Miyagi here? Why could the other people see Miyagi? “So Ms. Miyagi... really was Ms. Miyagi,” the high school girl said, her eyes wide. “...Yeah, somehow, you’re exactly like I imagined you.” Asakura, from the back of the crowd, suggested that they let us be alone. So the people left us banter and congratulations as they scattered away. I thanked Asakura. “Guess Miyagi really was just my kind of girl,” Asakura laughed. “Be happy, you two.” And then we were alone. Miyagi took my hand and explained. “Strange, isn’t it? How can I be here? How can others see me? ...It’s simple. I did the same thing you did.” “The same thing...?” A few seconds later, I realized what Miyagi meant. “How much... did you sell?” “Also the same. I sold all of it. All but three days.” My face went pale. “Just after you sold your lifespan, the other observer contacted me.
