Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Shannan was startled, "Fushimi-kun?"

He chewed on this completely unfamiliar surname, and felt that there was something wrong-the word "Fushimi" as a place name should impress him, the Shinsengumi, and even the shogunate; Needless to say how tragic the prelude to the army's failure was.However, in this time period, "Fushimi" as a place name is only a certain place in Kyoto; the Mr. Tukata in front of him didn't realize that the place name "Fushimi" would be special.

However, Shannan inexplicably felt... care.

Perhaps it was because of the tone of her voice when she said "Fushimi-kun", with a smile, as if she was briefly caught in some kind of interesting and beautiful memory; The melancholy, let some part of his intuition suddenly screamed sharply, sounding the siren.

What's more, this "Fushimi-kun" is the person who once taught her some extraordinary skills.

...So, Yukiha-kun, how much is the difference between the you I know and the you standing in front of me now.

But this is not a good time to talk about this topic.Shannan quickly made a judgment.

"If we evacuate safely, can you fight with peace of mind?" He asked calmly.

It's not like Hijikata is simply obsessed with "how can a majestic man hide behind a woman and escape with the desperate cover of a woman", because of the long-term experience of fighting side by side in the Shinsengumi, and the long-term experience of Liu With full recognition of Quan's outstanding performance at that time, Shannan was able to treat Liu Quan with an attitude of treating his companions as equals, objectively assessing the ever-changing situations on the battlefield, and not just treating her as a hero who needed protection. , vulnerable women.Therefore, compared with the furious and unbelievable Hijikata, Shannan's voice is calm and almost cold.

"If you are asked to evacuate and you need to fight to the death here, then please allow me to refuse. But if our existence only draws your unnecessary attention, then—"

Liu Quan's actions at the next moment decisively interrupted his words.

As soon as she raised her hand, a few kunai wrapped in ominous black air tucked between the fingers of her right hand came out—instantly sank into the bodies of the two huge monsters that had been trying to attack Shannan and Hijikata. .

The monster screamed fiercely, and its figure slowly disappeared as if dissolving in the air.But Shannan didn't have time to feel happy, because——

The dark clouds in the sky were still so low, and the lightning and thunder seemed to explode right above their heads.More ominous shadows appeared among the clouds.They gradually appeared from behind the dark clouds, and then lightly landed in the direction of Shannan, Tufang and Liuquan.

Why? !Anger, bewilderment and suspicion surged in Shannan's heart for a moment.

Why do these monsters keep chasing them?Is it because Mr. Xueye did everything possible to get rid of the crime of "taking off" for him, and escaped the fate of seppuku? !

This was probably the only reason he could think of in a hurry.

The biggest change that happened to them recently is only this incident.Shannan keenly recalled that in the previous life, at the same time, he drank water like water, and had to pretend to announce the death of Shannan, the head of the new selection team. under daylight—

In the last life, in the eyes of outsiders who didn't know the inside story—even in the eyes of people like Kokotaro Ito, he, Shinsengumi Chief Yamanan Keisuke, had died on the night of February 23rd in the second year of Genji, right? ?

He thought of the story that was well fabricated to cover up the fact that he drank water that turned into a Rakshasa.

How did he die in that story?Is the person who made the mistake, the director general?Who were those who witnessed the so-called "secret seppuku ceremony"?Kondo, Hijikata, and other important cadres... right?

He seemed to understand something, and it seemed that his mind was buzzing and confused.

...Why did she try her best to clear him of the charge of "taking off"?Why run desperately in the dark, chasing him on the mountain road?Even--

Why do you have to pretend to be another person—"Flower Leaf"—to get close to Hijikata-kun? !

Perhaps it is because as the military adviser and staff officer of the Shinsengumi for a long time, he is the brain of the Shinsengumi that can be relied on at critical moments. Shannan's mind has developed a habit, that is, the more critical it is, the calmer it is, And at the same time, it can turn quickly, and come up with the best idea in the current situation——

Shannan felt a sudden chill all over his body, as if his blood had gradually stopped flowing.

Because he came to a terrible conclusion—a conclusion that completely overturned all his cognition.

In fact, deep down in his heart, he knew clearly that this "Hikata-kun" was not the type Kiyohara Yukiha liked.Perhaps she would still think that this "Hikata-kun" is also a hero of the times, but today when he observed her expression and eyes without any trace, he understood that she was not attracted by this "Hikata-kun". You" was moved.

There was no brilliance in her eyes when she looked up at the former Hijikata-kun, nor did she have any deeper respect and love; only a calm scrutiny, and perhaps a hint of guarding——

Shannan understood at that moment.

Strangely, at that moment, the unwillingness, resentment and gloom that had been rolling in his chest for many years seemed to have disappeared, like a black air was drawn out of his chest, and then curled into today's clear sky ——

Yes, at that time, when they were still walking on the street named "Liujiaotong", he remembered that the sky was still very clear.

But now, when these monsters with strange shapes and distorted faces appeared, everything changed.

The whole sky was covered with dark clouds and thick fog, and with the strong wind, those black shadows descended in front of them; and no matter how superb their sword skills were, they could not kill them.

Why do they come?Why didn't such a terrifying monster appear in the last life he and she experienced?How were things different then—and this time?

Shannan cast his eyes on the terrifying black shadows that reappeared in the clouds, and said slowly: "...It's because I didn't die this time, right?!"

He almost squeezed this sentence out between his teeth, accompanied by a hissing sound.Tu Fang beside him gave him a surprised look, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

But he knew that she would be able to understand.

He stared at her closely, at her snow-white long hair and blood-red pupils, at her reaching into her sleeve again, and taking out a few strange kunai that also had black air on them.

Kunai's supposedly bright blade is now covered with deep black air, completely unable to see the luster that a sharp weapon should have.Shannan felt that her hands were trembling slightly, and the layer of black air leaked out from between her fingers, as if it was eroding her flesh and blood.

He noticed that the part of her hand that was submerged in the black air seemed to be melted, but the next moment it quickly grew back into flesh and blood due to her amazing self-healing ability as a Rakshasa; then the black air entangled again Come up, repeating this process of being corroded to the rebirth of flesh and blood over and over again——

Although he knew that being a Rakshasa would not feel pain, he still frowned unconsciously.

...It hurts, Yukiha-kun.

What makes you work so hard to save... is my fate, right?

Suddenly, somewhere deep in his mind, he found a memory that he had almost forgotten.

That's a paragraph, to be precise.

It was the day when Ge Shan was forced to cut seppuku. When he went to the "floating boat" to find her, he overheard the sad words of that strange handsome man outside the shop.

He said: [If you want to change the fate of someone here, you will be backlashed by fate!Aren't you very clear about this? !Become a monster, be wanted, and be hunted down by powerful enemies—and police officers—continuously... Do you not care about such a future? ! 】

Ahh, everything is right now.

The painful warning from that strange handsome man, she resolutely chased dozens of miles in the middle of the night to find him, until the terrifying monster that fell from the sky at this moment——

This is the backlash of fate, right?

As that handsome man said, "Check for non-violation".will come after her.She will also become a monster and be wanted--

Shannan didn't hear Kiyohara Yukiha's answer.In fact, he now felt that her answer was not too important anyway.

Because the facts are already in front of them, irrefutable and irresistible——

Qingyuan Xueye finally spoke out, and before the new monsters that appeared in Yunjian fell to the ground, she said coldly, simply and rudely:

"...You guys, let's go now."

Earthwork: "...Hey! It's been said that we can't—"

Shannan didn't ask another word, but immediately raised his hand to block Tufang who was about to draw his sword to fight those monsters again, and said, "...OK."

Hijikata: "?! Hey, Shannan-kun, are you serious...!? As a man, it is too—"

Shannan actually turned his face and smiled at him.

From Hijikata's point of view, that smile was really scary.Shannan's facial features were almost cold, and there was no smile in his eyes, only the corners of his mouth were curled up stiffly, as if he was wearing a Noh mask.

Moreover, Shannan's voice is also clear and cold.

"If we're only a burden to her by staying, we shouldn't be here," he said.

Before Tufang had time to refute, he heard the "Axue" girl say in a voice that was colder than Shannan's tone: "But if the solution you think of is to reapply it in a place that I can't see If you take on the stigma and cut your belly, then you are a person who does not believe what you say!"

Earthwork: "..."

The second wave of unkillable monsters is about to descend on the ground. At this moment, the two of them quarreled. Isn't this a wise choice? !

He glared at Shannan and Axue helplessly.

And... why do you have to bear the stigma again and have to cut seppuku as soon as you avoid A Xue's eyes!Could it be that in her eyes, their Shinsengumi—to be more precise, he, the deputy head of the Shinsengumi Toshizo Hijikata—is just such a soul who doesn't even distinguish between right and wrong, who is cruel and merciless, and wants to rule out dissidents? !

Tu Fang choked on his chest and could not get up or down.In the end, he roared angrily: "I said that I will not pursue punishment for that matter! You have taken the Shinsengumi's rules and handling process as nothing! Now that the decision has been made, it cannot be changed—"

Before he could finish his words, several thunderclaps suddenly exploded in the air, and long lightning bolts struck the ground from the heights of the sky all the way.

Earthwork: "..."
