Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

That night, when Liu Quan returned to the "floating boat", it was already dark.

Of course, in Shimabara, there is no feeling of whether it is late at night, the streets are always brightly lit, and every shop is full of bustle and bustle; it’s just that Liu Quan feels extra tired this night, probably because of dealing with Hijikata. Accidentally expending too much energy in the middle of the day.

She deeply realized that the real deputy chief in this world is different from the person in her memory in many ways.

The deputy chief in this world, to some extent, seems to be sharper and more arrogant, more unrestrained and more ruthless—but, Liu Quan seems to be able to understand why such a person would come from a drug dealer in the countryside. , and eventually became the last general to support the afterglow of the shogunate.

Of course, she also realized more deeply how ideal and beautiful the world she had spent many years in was.

In that world, almost all the disputes that occurred among the "companions" that everyone considers-including Jian Baishu, including Mr. Shannan's forced marginalization, including Yongcang and Harada's final departure from the team...all the unpleasant things happened The impact and impressions caused are all minimized to the point where there is no grudge if you think about it after a while.After going through all that, everyone can still face each other seriously, rely on each other, trust each other, and fight side by side...

But here?The Jianbaishu incident was enough to raise the tension between Tufang and Shannan.They couldn't understand each other's considerations and priorities, and became resentful, angry and extreme, like two children who had a quarrel but didn't know how to resolve it; The new era complicates and magnifies all this. They must deal with all kinds of disputes and major events that are swept up in front of them by the tide of the times at any time. There is no time to ease the atmosphere and understand each other. The waves pushed farther and farther apart—

Liu Quan seemed to have understood the crux of the problem.But it wasn't until this moment that she really understood why Shannan's departure was inevitable in real history.

Obviously, the companions who once supported each other and fought side by side have always cared about each other seriously, but in the end they couldn't reach a mutual understanding and parted ways-isn't it very sad?

Liu Quan thought so, but didn't notice that the light in his room seemed to be still on.

Of course, the lights of the lamps and candles in this era are very dim. Walking in the corridor, it is natural that I didn’t notice when I lowered my head to think about things; When he came, the expression on his face quickly changed from worry to astonishment.

...Because she suddenly saw that in the middle of the room, futons had been spread on the tatami mats; and on the tatami mats next to the futons, Shannan was sitting there cross-legged!

Liu Quan's brain buzzed and expanded tenfold.

"Shan...Mr. Shannan?!" She cried out.

"You...how are you here?!"

Shannan was still wearing the clothes she was familiar with—fortunately, he didn't take off his coat, only wearing a muscular undergarment, as if he was going to stay here; but even this was enough to surprise her.If this was in modern times, Liu Quan felt that his subconscious first reaction would be to take out his phone to check the current time.

"It's, it's so late, I thought..." she said subconsciously.

Shannan raised his head calmly and smiled at her.

"Have you forgotten? You asked me to wait here for your return."

Liu Quan: "..."

She had to think about it for a while, and she didn't think about when she said this to him.

Maybe it was when someone told him that he had to leave tonight, in order to appease the black mud in his heart that he didn't know when he would churn, he casually said something like "I will come back as soon as possible to see Mr. Shannan" .

Of course she didn't think that Mr. Shannan would be an obedient person.But now Shannan choked her back to the corner with a word she said casually, which seemed to be a bit of the style of the past; so, although a little surprised and embarrassed, Liu Quan still curled up the corners of his lips and smiled.

"But I didn't expect that Mr. Shannan would wait for me so late." She said, as she stepped into the room, her attitude was very natural, with a sense of intimacy and trust accumulated over a long period of time.

"I thought, it's so late, you must have gone back—"

However, Shannan interrupted her at the next moment.

"Go back?" He repeated her words softly and smiled.

"No, I'm not going back," he said.

"I'm not going back until I wait for you. Because I've waited too long—"

Liu Quan:? !

I always feel that there is something wrong with this sentence?

As soon as a bad premonition came to her mind, she heard Shannan say something with a smile—even more astonishing words.

"So, I'm patient...I'm going to wait until you come," he said quietly.

Liu Quan felt more and more that the atmosphere suddenly became subtle.She was shocked inwardly, but she still tried her best to maintain a natural expression on her face.

"You're waiting for me, what's the matter?" She walked to the side of the mirror, sat down on her knees, and slowly removed the powder that had been applied on her face for a long time, which made her feel a little stuffy.

She deliberately slowed down the process, and her posture facing the mirror means that her back is facing Shannan; but Shannan seems to have shown a lot of patience.From the beginning to the end, he sat there, except for a chuckle after hearing her question, he didn't say anything else; but the air in the room seemed to become more and more low and sticky, even if Liu Quan's back Facing him, I could almost feel his gaze falling on her back, as if he was going to burn two big holes through there.

...That's right, Mr. Shannan should be unhappy.After all, tonight is almost equivalent to her letting him go. Although it is to find out the news, it is impossible to tell him this kind of thing bluntly——

While Liu Quan was using the "Universal Quick Makeup Remover Cotton" hidden in his palm and exchanged for points from System Bacteria, he gently wiped off the thick powder on his face—this kind of powder that is about to blur people's faces. Without the help of some modern black technology, there is no beauty at all. The pale face reflected in the mirror is almost comparable to that of Hyakki Yako, which is not conducive to gaining favorability at all, and it is absolutely unbearable for her——while thinking quickly Mr. Shannan's intentions and pros and cons of staying here so late.

Of course she remembered that the cadres of the Shinsengumi would also spend the night in Shimabara, and they did not have very strict requirements on this; at the beginning, Kokotaro Ito persuaded Yongcura, Saito and others to leave the team and join the "Imperial Tomb Guard" he was about to set up. ", and once invited them to drink for three consecutive days and nights in Shimabara.Although in the end Yongcang and others rejected Ito's solicitation, and only Saito was assigned by the deputy chief to enter the Imperial Tomb Guard as an undercover agent, but she also remembered that Yongcang, who had returned to the village after disappearing for several days, was obviously dead. His flushed face after drinking, and Saito who walked slowly behind him, as if he was not drunk, and remained calm, but his cheeks showed the mellow red after drinking.

So, it doesn't matter if Mr. Shannan stays overnight in Shimabara...?

Liu Quan felt a little worried, and couldn't help asking: "It's so late, you don't go back to the village...is it really okay?"

Shannan laughed behind her.

"Is there any problem?" He said lightly, "Didn't Hijikata send Yamazaki to confirm whether I met Miss Akari in this store?"

Liu Quan:! ! !

"You...how did you know..." She asked in amazement, she wanted to turn her head, but because the makeup on her face had not been completely wiped off, she was in the state of a cat face, so she had to resist turning her head The urge to observe Shannan's expression.

She tried to move her body a little bit quietly, trying to peep a little bit of the expression on Shannan's face from the small mirror inlaid on the mirror stand, but the angle was really wrong, she could only see a little bit of Shannan's side face—and Only the part below his nose can be seen.

In the reflection in the mirror, he seems to have slightly tightened his lips, and then quickly relaxed the corners of his lips, revealing an indescribable, deep and unpredictable faint smile.

"After all, I used to be a Rakshasa." He said softly, with a strange, self-deprecating meaning.

"Yamazaki's actions are full of flaws in my eyes, of course I have noticed it long ago..."

Liu Quan was stunned, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong—Shannan became a Rakshasa much earlier than her, and he had also devoted himself to the study of inhuman creatures like "Rakshasa". It could almost be said that Except for Xuecun Gangdao, who researched "Change Like Water", no one knows the advantages and disadvantages of Rakshasa better than him; now even though he is no longer Rakshasa, the five senses have become duller, but before The accumulated acuity and experience are still there, so it should be easy to see through Yamazaki's secret probing.

To take advantage of the specialty of this monster that was transformed into a Shinsengumi, and in turn defend against the Shinsengumi's companions in advance—isn't it really painful?

Liu Quan sighed silently in his heart, quickened his movements to wipe his face clean, and turned around.

"Mr. Shannan." She called him, with a sad look on her face, as if she didn't know what to say to comfort him.

Shan Nan Duan was sitting there, with the laid quilt behind him—in fact, Ming Li also asked him tonight if he would go back to the village after drinking, but he said bluntly to her, "I have to have a good relationship with you." What A Xue talked about is very important, we must stay here and wait for her to come back, no matter how late it is."

Akari left the guest room sadly, perhaps thinking that what he said was just an excuse for wanting to stay overnight.

But in fact, he really thought so.

He didn't know what happened to her leaving the "floating boat" in a hurry tonight.He also noticed that she came here for a different purpose - even, there must be a reason for her to appear in this world.

He didn't believe that for no reason, this strange world would bring them both here at the same time-how could he have such good luck?Those who were their former companions, those who used to stand between them, everyone who seemed to be more qualified to approach her than him, were all not here.

Here, only him and her.

Moreover, he got rid of the "Rakshasa" identity that devoured his vitality and shortened his life infinitely.He felt that he was finally qualified to say something to her—something that he felt he was not qualified to say to her in the last world—but, soon, he discovered that her purpose— Even her attention is not on this matter.

She doesn't seem to be purely happy because of this unexpected reunion like him, and she doesn't seem to be able to throw away things like him and is determined to put "cherishing the encounter with this person" before other things this time .

She still seems to have a high degree of interest and concern for the things that the term "Shinsengumi" represents.She even has a strong interest in the strange "Hijikata Toshizo" in this world, and wants to inquire about him!

……why? !

he thought, almost confused and angry.

Why does the name "Hijikata Toshisan", even though it has changed time and space, still have such a huge influence and attraction on her? !
