The next morning, Liu Quan did not go to the hall for breakfast.
She instructed Hasebe to bring breakfast to her room, where her washing and eating were done.
It's hard to say if this is an excuse to avoid seeing the other mourners before going into battle, lest they make any more difficult requests to answer, but when Liu Quan came to the courtyard refreshed himself with the "one phase and one vibration" she had been using, he was startled.
Because, in the courtyard, densely standing people, mourning.
And all of them were wearing their own uniforms.
Willow Springs""
She stood on the porch, and for a moment she was so surprised that she forgot to speak or react.
The scenery of this pill is still summer, it is early in the morning, and the summer sun has not yet exuded its strongest power, but the dew left on the flowers and leaves from the previous night has disappeared, only a hint of freshness in the breeze can remind everyone of the traces of its existence.
It was supposed to be a beautiful, peaceful morning, like many mornings in the past.
However, the mourners who stood neatly in the courtyard brought a touch of unusual atmosphere to this morning.
The female inquisitor of this Honmaru stood on the porch with the hilt of the sword at her waist and was unearthly for a full five seconds.
Then, not knowing what she was thinking, her eyes flashed, and the corners of her lips slowly turned upward, forming a beautiful arc.
As the smile took shape at the corners of her lips, her back straightened, and she stood on the porch with the hilt of her sword in awe-inspiring manner.
She just smiled and asked, "Eh, everyone, what are you going to do?"
It was as if a plug had been pulled off, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was as if the air was flowing again in an instant.
Hasebe, who was standing at the front of the line, took a step forward and replied loudly, "If the master is going to battle today, we are willing to follow you." ”
When the female judge heard this, she didn't immediately answer "yes" or "no", but only raised her eyebrows and showed a surprised expression.
"Oh"
I have to say that the tone in which she said this word made everyone feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity for a moment, as if among them, there was a person who was also used to saying this, and now the female judge had learned his tone.
Hasebe had a straight face, and when he answered the God Judge, his tone was also righteous and awe-inspiring.
"I've heard that the master will go to the government of the time this morning to accept a special mission, and if the master accepts the mission, please take us with you. ”
Ah, although she has been praising Mikazuki Sojin's voice is actually very popular with her, but at this moment she realized that the voice of Hasebe sounded clear and upright, but it was actually just as good.
The goddess inquisitor blinked, slowly lowered her eyes, and quickly raised her gaze to look around at the mourning gods who were looking at her in the courtyard, and finally, bent her eyebrows slightly, and smiled.
"It's, it's really, great. She said.
So, in the end, this Honmaru finally became her own Honmaru, right?
Even if these Fu Fu Gods gathered here and wanted to go out with her because they didn't want her to suffer the same fate because they didn't want her to suffer the same fate because they didn't want her to suffer the same fate, it didn't matter.
Because, at this moment, they gathered here because of their trust, respect, care and love for her, because they didn't want to lose her, the inquisitor, the master, right?
"It's, it's really, great. She slowly repeated what she had just said.
Although the government of the time may face a vicious battle, whether it is mental, verbal, or physical, the level of that kind of struggle may be very tricky, but now she inexplicably feels a kind of mental relaxation, as if she has won the final and sweet victory.
However, in a big sense, she went to the government of the time today, just to accept the mission. Therefore, rushing into the building of the government of the time with a group of mourning gods is not the right way to open it.
Even if she wanted to, she couldn't. Because, there is no definite evidence or reason to support her similar act of blatant rebellion
Moreover, what if the government of time really has some difficult task to solve and entrust it to her, a god inquisitor who has always performed well, after all, the certificate of commendation that the government of time gave her for her outstanding performance in the past is still hanging on the wall of the office of the god inquisitor of this Honmaru.
The Divine Inquisitor groaned for a moment, raising her voice slightly.
"Everyone's mind, I already understand. ”
There seemed to be a happy smile in her final note, and it didn't sound like she would soon have to go alone to a dangerous place.
"However, since I went to the government today to accept the mission, I can't bring everyone with me."
At this, she paused.
"Therefore, although I thank you all for your kindness, I can only bring one attendant with me today. ”
There was a buzz in the courtyard with a muffled voice.
The vast majority of the adult Fu Gods had a calm face, and they had obviously expected this result for a long time, and their appearance here today was more to express their approval and support for the successor Divine Inquisitor, which was indeed very important to the female Inquisitor. She felt well soothed.
However, although the little daggers also knew that this was natural, after all, they were still a little uncomposed, and the worries in their hearts about their lords and generals overwhelmed the rational rule that they should be obedient, so the female inquisitor saw that the row of Awataguchi's younger brothers were all worried and desperately stared at her, looking like they were about to rush up and hug her thighs.
The Witch immediately felt well healed again.
She involuntarily curled the corners of her lips and laughed.
"I, I, have been practicing swordsmanship and other skills for so many years, maybe I just waited for this day. She said half-jokingly.
"I've tried to make myself as strong as I can so much that I don't want to be slaughtered at will. She bent her eyebrows and smiled as she prolonged her voice, as if she wanted to respond to the concerns of her men in the courtyard with her own lighthearted attitude.
"I remember a long, long time ago, when I was in Sendai, I had to follow the deputy chief into a hall full of enemies. ”
Suddenly, she began to tell the story in an old-fashioned tone
Everyone was stunned. Then, Izumi Morikatsu was the first to show a little excited look.
"Mr. Hijikata," he whispered.
When he said this, many people also reacted.
Ah, is this successor the Inquisitor really the one who was born and died with the leader of the Shinsengumi?
And this woman, who seemed to have experienced an unusual life before such a long time, still has a youthful face at this point, subtly standing on the wooden corridor where the sun is slanting past, and her tone is light and bright.
"At that time, before rushing in, the deputy chief did not ask me if I had the determination to win or die, but only said to me, let me rush in what I had just said and say it again to those vicious enemies. ”
The morning sun is getting hotter and brighter. She narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Unfortunately, it's not a rhetoric. What he told me was that even a dumb guy like me wasn't that easy to clean up. ”
There was a hint of a smile in her voice that evoked the warmth of the memory.
And that sentence was indeed beyond everyone's expectations, and the little knives in the courtyard let out a burst of "eh" exclaims, and then everyone laughed.
The Lady Inquisitor laughed along with the group, as if the memory really made her amused and happy, and after laughing together for about ten seconds, she slowly stopped, her tone regaining seriousness, only a residual smile, still glowing at the end of her eyes.
"So, even a fool like me isn't that easy to clean up. ”
She slowed down and repeated.
"Everyone is here and waiting for me to come back. After all, after accepting the mission, if I have to go into battle, I still have to come back and form a team. ”
She said casually, as if she really just went out to NC today to get a day class and did a trivial task casually.
The little story she told livened up the slightly tense atmosphere in the courtyard a little. This kind of lecture before going out is also very novel, and the atmosphere in the courtyard is obviously not as tense and nervous as it was just now.
In fact, the female inquisitor originally wanted to say something like "Don't worry, I'm your inquisitor, and I will never leave you alone" as the leader's lines to comfort her subordinates, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was actually more deliberate;
Anyway, if the government of the time really wants to openly hack her, doesn't she still have a plug-in. The system has bullied her for so many years, and it's time to show that it's reliable
Then, suddenly, she heard a very clear voice from the crowd. The voice was gentle and calm, and there was a powerful and firm force in the polite words and attitudes that could hardly be refused.
"In that case, please let me go with you today as a close attendant. ”
The Female Inquisitor""
She was stunned for a moment.
However, it was in this moment that the small short knives huddled together by the Awataguchi family suddenly parted to the sides, making way for them.
Their eldest brother, through the pathway, walked out from behind them, and stood straight in front of the Female Divine Inquisitor, raising his eyes slightly, looking at her calmly and gently, but with persistence in his eyes.
Among the people who are more cheerful and arrogant in the knife, such as Mutsu Mamomoriyoshiyuki, they have blurted out "Eh"
There is another person who shouts "eh" after him.
Izumi Shoukaneji also squeezed out of the crowd and stood in front of the female inquisitor.
"Eh, how can you take me and take me to the one you promised yesterday" He didn't look at the issue of Yizhen on the side, but stubbornly stared at Liu Quan's face, and said in a rough voice.
Willow Springs""
Ah, at this time, the old man of the Heian Dynasty must not come out to argue with young people, this kind of temporary length of time. She thought reflexively.
As soon as the thought took shape, she heard a familiar laugh.
"Aha. Everyone cares about the owner the same. Very good, very good"
Willow Springs""
