The sense of absurdity and disbelief that she had when she first found out that she was actually Kane-san when she came to attack (fog!) tonight slowly faded, but now she only thinks it's a little funny.

Given that Kane-san was wearing a base layer in his bedgown — even if it was a "tight black vest that showed off his smooth muscles," —— knew he hadn't come with bad intentions.

...... What's more, he had just been in the backyard in the backyard, snarling at her, declaring that his might could not be lewd (super fog!).

The inquisitor lifted her head and let out a long exhale, as if she couldn't stand the absurdity of the scene. She slammed the shoji door with her backhand as if she was a little annoyed, and deliberately stepped on heavy steps until she walked in front of Izumi Shoukatashi before stopping, and then sat next to him with a bang, which startled Izumi Shoukatsu a lot.

He reflexively shouted "Uh!", flashed sideways to the side, stared at the female inquisitor with a frightened expression, and shouted angrily, "...... Hey, what the hell are you trying to do! Hey, it's too close!"

Instead, the Divine Inquisitor browed her eyebrows, revealing a fox-like sly smile.

"Hey, didn't you say you were going to bed~" The small wavy lines in her voice sounded like they were shivering.

Izumi Mamoru Kasumi's face flushed, I don't know if it's because of nervousness or annoyance.

"Damn, look down on me!" he said angrily, and for some reason he became even more angry as he watched the inquisitor smile at him.

"You don't have a crisis of spiritual decline, go to bed, sleep or something! Girls should sleep well at night!" he exclaimed.

The Goddess sneered and laughed.

“...... And what are you doing here, Kane-san?" she asked with a mischievous smile.

Izumi Shou and suffocated.

Just when he didn't know what to say, he heard her speak again.

"Does it have anything to do with the strange behavior of the Shinsengumi knives at dinner?"

Izumi Shoukanji: "...... Huh?!"

The Witch smiled meaningfully.

"I, I went and asked somebody else. ”

Izumi Shoukanji: "...... W-what?"

The female inquisitor smiled and said, "I heard that you were chasing Hasebe-kun in the afternoon and wanted to fight him, right?"

For some reason, Izumi Mamoru Kane's face turned red for a moment. He jerked his face away and replied in a gruff voice, "...... Oh, yes. How?"

The inquisitor sat cross-legged beside him, her left elbow resting on her knee, her hand resting her chin, and her right hand tapping lightly on the other's knee, her eyes amused.

"Tell me, why did you suddenly try to get along with Hasebe-kun? Didn't you take a beating because of this? You can't outrun him with that maneuver, right?...... No, it's better to say that it's in the current Honmaru, maybe even the little lark can't outrun him~"

Izumi was stunned for a moment, only to realize that the "little lark" was talking about one of the horses that loved to torture him. His face darkened as a result. The suspicious flush from before had faded a lot.

He said in a ** tone: "It's not bad to give it a try." ”

With a poof, the Female Judge laughed again.

Izumi Mamoru glared at her fiercely, only to notice that her pupils were sparkling with a smile. This demeanor made him stunned slightly, and then his tone became worse.

"I don't want to say it...... But if that's what you want to know, let me tell you. He coughed, his tone stiffer.

"Based on some strange order...... Ahem, in short, the person who was supposed to be on duty today was the guy from Hasebe. He snorted.

The Female Divine Inquisitor raised an eyebrow, revealing an interested expression.

“...... However, that guy was very loyal to the former master. Although he kept saying that he could do anything for the sake of his current master, he had said the same thing to the former God Inquisitor before......"

Izumi Morikatsu frowned slightly, as if he couldn't understand Hasebe's thoughts.

"That man, his loyalty is poisonous...... I say to each master, 'If it's the Lord's order, I can do everything for you,' but ...... When his master suddenly changed, it seemed that the words he spoke were no different, and he accepted this extraordinary fact so smoothly......?"

Izumi Mamoru's voice unconsciously sank a little, probably because he was also thinking seriously.

"I can't see that person's true heart. I don't think you can necessarily read him. After all, what I have seen before are the kind of people who can fight to the end for a belief......"

The smile on the female inquisitor's face froze slightly.

However, Izumi Mamoru didn't notice it, and he continued to say with a solemn face: "Moreover, when the previous God Inquisitor was about to leave...... I remember once I happened to see him alone in the backyard, standing in the shade of a tree looking straight at the Inquisitor's office. ”

Female Inquisitor: "...... Oh?"

Her modest response seemed to indicate that she was listening carefully to what he said, and Izumi seemed to be a little happier and continued, "At that time, he seemed to be too focused, so he didn't notice me...... I thought he was acting a little strange, so I continued to stand in the corner and watch him...... As a result, I heard him say in that very sad voice, 'Why...... Why can't it be me?'" ”

Female Judge: "Oh~?!"

There was genuine interest in her voice. Izumi Mamoru Kanetsuya finally sensed this, and turned his head to stare at her again, and after a moment, for some reason, he became a little uncomfortable again.

"Ahem, anyway......! I think Hasebe is a difficult guy to understand. And even if he is used to saying to his new master every time, 'If it's the Lord's order, he can do everything for you,' he hasn't said it to you this time, has he?"

The female inquisitor nodded thoughtfully, and said casually, "...... I don't think I said it before......"

"Really, really?!" Morikasei Wazumi seemed to be triumphant in an instant, and his voice was an octave higher.

"In this case, I didn't take the initiative to excuse you from the arrangement, is it really because the Lord can't refuse? Don't forget that you didn't kick that Tsurumaru out of the bedroom on the first night - isn't that enough to show your attitude? ”

The Female Judge seemed a little surprised. "Kick out ......?ah, that's what he said to you?"

Izumi Morika snorted.

"Hmph, I guess. ...... Of course, he will say that he is not interested in you because he thinks you are too boring. It's natural, right? What is it if you can accompany other women so quickly and casually after your lover disappears-"

The female judge laughed.

"Tsurumaru, is it the former Inquisitor's lover?" she asked.

Izumi snorted again, as if he was very impatient.

"Hmph, who knows what they messed up about...... I didn't pay much attention to it. I'm a handsome and powerful sword, unlike those guys who like to coax little girls. ”

The Divine Inquisitor burst out laughing, reaching out and patting him on the shoulder before Izumi Mamoru became angry and angry.

"Yes~Kane-sang, but it's not only a powerful but also gorgeous knife~" She said in a long voice like a child, "It's reliable?"

Izumi Shoukanji: "...... Damn, do you look down on me!!"

The Divine Inquisitor smiled and shook her head.

"How is that possible—" she said, "I seem to have guessed the real purpose of Kane-san to try out with Hasebe-kun in the afternoon." ”

Izumi Mamoru was taken aback, and unconsciously stumbled.

"W-What ......!?Hey, no, don't interpret it—"

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard the female inquisitor say the correct answer.

"Kane-san is worried about Hasebe-kun's unpredictable thoughts, and I'm afraid that something will happen if he is really put to bed, right? So if you compete with him, if you win, Kane-san can take his place openly...... Of course I'm not in danger if Kane-sang comes, am I?"

Izumi Morikaneji: !!

He was stunned for a moment, and felt his face burn with a snort—and wasn't he doing a good deed of helpfulness?

He stammered and yelled, "Huh, what nonsense! Don't guess, it's so late, quick, go to bed!!"

Who knew that the female god judge was probably addicted to joking with him, she sat there without moving, and said with a smile: "I don't dare-I sleep very ugly, how can I let others see it? How embarrassed~"

Izumi Shoukan: "Ha?!...... I'm not going to do anything to you! I've seen you sleep before—"

The smile on the face of the female inquisitor disappeared in an instant!

She straightened her back suddenly, and as soon as she rolled over into a kneeling position, her gaze changed from the pleasant warmth and smile of the previous moment to a hint of nervousness, eagerness and uneasiness—and the warmth of her gaze disappeared.

She stared at his eyes that were almost the same color as Shinsengumi's Haori, and asked slowly, "...... Kane-san, what are you talking about?!"

Izumi Mamoru Kane's body trembled suddenly, and he suddenly didn't know what kind of expression to put on. The weakness of the heart, the embarrassment caused by her persecution, the discomfort of the things that had gone before, and perhaps some resentment at the choice of the woman in front of them—mixed together and gradually dissolved into an awkward sense of irritation.

"I-I say!" he roared rudely in an impatient tone, "who, who would want to sleep with someone who stabbed him! So you give me ten thousand hearts, even if I saw you when you fell asleep, it wouldn't be good! and...... Didn't you summon me last time? You called me over in the middle of the night and said something to let me return the medicine I kept for you! I burned my head so much that I could roast sweet potatoes, isn't it the time to leave it alone!! You, you yourself fell asleep without permission, and now you still blame me for watching you sleep...... Sick and blue-faced, almost out of breath, neither strong nor beautiful, you—Do you think I want to see it......"

The more he spoke, the more fluent he became, and the more he spoke, the more he felt that his momentum was strangely slowly gaining the upper hand.

The next moment he noticed that the Witch's hand was lightly resting on his right shoulder.

He panicked, and his voice was rough. "Hey——! what are you going to do all of a sudden—"

The author has something to say: June 5:

Speaking of which, the author always has toxic thoughts about some of the settings of the knife man~~

For example, the master of Hasebe controls [.

I've always wanted to write about what would happen if he suddenly changed owners

Also, why did the Japanese service take out Hasebe's "Why can't it be me" Honmaru injured line! That sentence is the most emotional, okay!!

It must be used in the text

In addition, to explain, the girl has never been sure if this Kane-san is the one she has met

That's why I deliberately went to talk to him, wanting to see if there were any clues or something

Of course, now Kane-san himself said that he had leaked his mouth [point wax.]

PS. Thank you, little angel Lin Sangen and bear's mines~~(づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭~
