Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

After a series of fierce battles in Aizu, even Liu Quan, as a certified player of [I won’t get a lunch if the blood tank is empty], who has been activated by the system bacteria, can hardly bear to exchange for the system bacteria. The point consumption required for medicines produced by modern technology.

The system bacteria strictly restricted these drugs to be used only on the player himself, otherwise the exchange function would be blocked as simply as the skills were blocked back then.Liu Quan didn't dare to take any risks, and could only watch helplessly as many team members turned from slander to serious injury due to infection and tetanus, and some even lost their lives——

Every day of this life is suffering, both physically and mentally.And the fate of one defeat after another repeats itself, no matter how much flesh and blood and lives are used, one victory cannot be exchanged.

Although it has been decided to go to Sendai, the new government troops will harass from time to time and assist the Aizu Domain in preparing for the war before they leave.

At night, in an unobtrusive hidden corner of the camp, Liu Quan was quietly applying medicine to his arm and bandaging it.

Her right arm was injured about a few days ago.The injury was not serious. In the melee, an enemy soldier who was rushing from the side was accidentally not noticed, and was drawn a long line on the arm by the opponent.Fortunately, the wound was not very deep, but rather long. She had to wrap the entire length of the wound from her wrist to her upper arm with a bandage.

However, for a right-handed person, having to use only the left hand to apply a one-handed bandage to the right arm is a terrible situation.

Her movements were slow and clumsy, but using the modern wound medicine she exchanged-even if it was just a spray-like medicine- could not be seen by anyone here, and she had to be in the camp every time she changed the medicine. However, the slow movement often made her hide for too long to complete this difficult task. She was very worried that if someone couldn't find her someday, why would she take the medicine? The reason for having to disappear for a while is really hard to say.

Just as she finished applying the medicine clumsily and rewrapped the bandage on her right arm, a voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"... Xueye Jun? What are you doing here?"

Liu Quan was unprepared, his left hand shook in fright, and the bandage made of white cloth in his hand fell to the ground.

She let out an annoyed "Oh!", then turned her head resentfully, and gave the man a cross-eyed look.

"It's immoral to just appear behind others silently... It's really scary, Yi-kun."

Behind her, holding the handle of the knife at his waist, Saito stood upright with a look of astonishment and confusion on his face.

"... Huh? Why did it have something to do with morality...? And I'm not 'silent'. The footsteps I walked all the way just now didn't deliberately lighten up. I believe you can still hear it."

Liu Quan: ...I can't say that I didn't hear your footsteps because I was too focused just now because of my unskilled dressing skills, right?If you really say that, visually, you will be asked a hundred thousand whys by the very serious Xiaoyi again!

"...Forget it." She bent down to pick up the roll of bandages, looked at it regretfully, and sighed.

"It's dirty...it must be washed and boiled in boiling water before it can be used again." She stood up, intending to go back and get a fresh roll of bandages.

Saito's eyesight is good, and he saw her casually stuffing the roll of bandages that fell on the ground into his pocket at a glance.He hesitated.

"You're putting medicine on your own arm? Why don't you get someone to help?"

Liu Quan smiled wryly.

"Well, it's just a small injury...it's just an injury on the right wrist, which is inconvenient...the doctor is already too busy treating other seriously injured people, so don't cause trouble for me with such a small injury... ..."

Saito was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned and strode away.

Liu Quan:? ? ?When did Xiaoyi add an attribute of "going away if there is a disagreement"? !And they didn't seem to agree with each other just now, did they? !

But Xiao Yi came back soon - holding a new roll of bandages in his left hand.

Liu Quan:! ! !

After a moment of surprise, she burst out laughing.

"...Thank you very much." Before Saito could speak, she said with a smile, reaching out to pick up the bandage.

Saito held the roll of bandage tightly and did not move.

Liu Quan:? !

He stood in front of her, and after standing still for a moment, he suddenly said without warning: "Let me help you."

Liu Quan still wanted to decline. "...Eh? No, I can..."

"...just take it as a thank you for coming to reinforce me by yourself several times before." Saito said quietly.

Liu Quan:! ?

Although inexplicably felt that this sentence was a bit strange, since he had already said that, she also felt that there was no need to be coy; so she generously rolled up her sleeves again, stretched out her right arm and raised it In front of him.

"Then I'm counting on you, Ichi-kun."

Saito's eyes stayed on the arm with the long wound for a few seconds, then he stretched out his right hand to hold her wrist, fixed her arm, and began to patiently circle her with his left hand. Arms wrapped in bandages.

For some reason, at this moment, Liu Quan suddenly remembered that a long time ago, when she hadn't gained any favorability with Xiaoyi at all, once Xiaoyi ordered her to stay in her room to practice and maintain the sword, but she lied about it. Said "the wrist is injured" and believed her words, and carefully checked the so-called "injury" for her.

That memory made her smile slowly for some reason.

"...Don't ask me this time if I have used the Ishida powder handed down by the deputy chief's family, Yi-kun." She asked narrowly.

Saito was moving nimbly, giving a slight pause to the bandaged fingers on her arm!

He stood still for several seconds before resuming the bandage-wrapping action from before.From the beginning to the end, his gaze fell on her injured arm, with an unusually serious and focused expression.

"...Awataguchi Yoshimitsu was a famous swordsmith in the Kamakura period, and a master of short swords..."

Instead of answering Liu Quan's joking question before, he started talking about another seemingly unrelated topic without warning.

"'Yiqi Yizhen' is the only Taidao inscribed in his life, so the name of the sword is 'Yiqi Yizhen', which is the only treasure in his life..."

He spoke slowly, and the movement of wrapping the bandage around her was still going on smoothly.

However, Liu Quan first showed a question mark on her face, and then as Saito's abrupt topic continued, the faint smile on her face froze.

"...I suddenly don't like this sword." She suddenly interrupted Saito's "Introduction to Awataguchi School Swords" in a slightly rude and straightforward tone.

"The name of this knife is not good enough."

When Shinsaku Takasugi met for the last time, the content of the capital capital that Shinsaku sang suddenly came back to her mind.

[At the end, the wild wind and the autumn wind are parting for a while. 】

After singing the capital, Du Yi, he bid farewell to her forever.Until a long time later, she received a letter from him, which was the last message he left to her before he passed away.

Until the end, she didn't know that they should have been acquainted friends a long, long time ago.So at the beginning, they separated in such a rough and simple way, just like two strangers who met by chance.

However, Saito didn't have any strange reaction when he heard her interrupt him rudely.He was still helping her bandage the wound earnestly, and his voice was even calm as usual.

"The purpose of the sword is to take the opponent's life. It's just such a simple and easy-to-understand existence. There is no confusion, just obeying the user's intention. I want to be like that too."

Liu Quan:! ! !

Saito finally let go of the hand that was holding her wrist briefly.Quick and deft with both hands, he knotted the ends of the bandage and finished the binding.

Then at last he raised his eyes and looked at her.

"I once wanted to make a knife for the Shinsengumi. This is my greatest expectation for myself." He continued quietly.

"However, now, I have some other thoughts... It's not that I feel that the ambitions of the Shinsengumi are no longer important. No, it's better to say that because I cherish the ambitions of the Shinsengumi in my heart, I deeply feel that I am There is still an unfinished mission here—”

Liu Quan:! ?

Her eyes widened a little because of shock, and the warmth of her fingertips receded instantly because she felt something unbelievable.

After tying the knot on the bandage for her, his fingers seemed to hesitate for a moment, and finally they slowly moved away from her arm, slowly closed in mid-air, and clenched into fists.

"Mr. Xueye, I want to stay here. Stay in Aizu..." After a moment of silence, he finally said these words slowly.

Liu Quan felt a bang in his brain, and immediately became a mess, almost on strike.

"You... what did you say?!" She stared at him in shock, and couldn't believe her ears.

Although I have always remembered that Xiaoyi will leave the team in Aizu and participate in the final battle to defend Aizu, subconsciously, until Keisuke Ohtori has given the order to the Shinsengumi to evacuate Aizu and go to Sendai, she is not willing to go The fact that Xiaoyi's time to leave the team is imminent.

Yet it was inevitable.Right now, right in front of her eyes.

"Perhaps as Mr. Otori said, the fall of Aizu Domain is only a matter of time..." Even at this moment, Saito's voice is still as calm as ever!

"However, it is the Aizu clan that has protected us until now. I want to go to the end with this clan who wants to maintain the samurai spirit, and do my best as a samurai—"

Liu Quan: "...It is true that you are right, but—"

Saito suddenly raised his voice slightly.His dark blue eyes stared deeply at her with a hint of eager anticipation.

"I think I probably know what you're trying to say..."

"However, I remember you once said to me, 'If Kazu-kun sacrifices his life in order to choose Shidou in the future, there is nothing wrong with it'."

Liu Quan:! ! !
