665 663 [Return Chapter IV] 88

"I, too, did a little bit of my own way of investigating. …… Then I heard that when I agreed to cooperate with the government of the time to become a god inquisitor, my experience was also in the possession of the government of time as information. It's kind of something like a 'resume' in the world, which is a piece of paper that lists what kind of work you've done — well, for me, it's probably going to say something like 'Shinsengumi Ichibangumi Acting Team Leader/Kiyohara Yukiba'. She said.

After she heard Kitsunosuke's story, she immediately contacted the system. Later, the feedback given by the system bacteria was that it was impossible for the government to accept all the candidates it recommended based on their cooperation alone, and that it was necessary to provide some necessary information to prove that this person was capable and reliable—so the system bacteria carefully selected her outstanding performance in the world of Sakuraki as evidence, and put together a few lines of chronology-like resumes and provided them to the other party.

The system's exact words were: "Of course, it's impossible for them to know all the worlds you've experienced, that's too unbelievable, and you might be wary of them instead of trusting them." After all, it is a matter of course that subordinates who are too capable are outsiders and candidates who have not been trained from scratch, and they do not have the confidence to control such a person.

Moreover, the system also said that since the three days of the Moon Sect and Izumi Mori Kaneda here only knew her as "Kiyohara Yukiba", there was no need to provide her other identities so as not to arouse suspicion.

Let the government of the time or the Fu Fushen of these swords, think that her original identity is the acting leader of the Ichiban Group of the Shinsengumi, so that she can get the greatest advantage from this.

If they knew that her true identity was nothing more than an ordinary college girl in the present world, even if her ability was outstanding, the vague admiration that those people had for the identity of "the acting leader of the Shinsengumi Ichibangumi" would immediately disappear, and would be replaced by deep suspicion and disbelief - how did an ordinary, mortal girl from the present world become a cadre of the Shinsengumi? and how did she deceive the trust of those momentary heroes and become a core member to the end?

Although the system bacteria are all right, in Liu Quan's heart, there is still a question, which gradually rises up.

Since you want to cooperate...... That must be profitable for both the government and the system. Let her take over a very tricky second-hand Honmaru, if she can successfully integrate the power of this Honmaru and use it for her, then the government of time that hires her as a god inquisitor will of course get obvious benefits.

So, what about the phylogenetic side?

Unlike when she first entered this game world with its own indifferent face system, she was already a veteran and excellent player, and she didn't need another novice village to hone herself—not to mention the trickiness of this honmaru was not something that novices could solve.

So, let her support the government of the time as foreign aid, what benefits can the system bacteria get?

Although she should be regarded as a veteran player who is about to reach the standard of points and is enough to leave the game world and go home, after all, after she leaves the game world, if the system bacteria really don't arrange a way out for her - whether it is studying or working - she actually has nothing to do.

And even if the system bacteria have a little conscience, they can put her in school again. It can't just be forced to hire her in the past, so she doesn't care about her life's work, study, marriage, and children, is it? It's just a system, not a charity.

So, why?

And, unfortunately, she can't discuss this kind of thing with anyone else. Because there is no way to tell the whole background, cause and effect, as it is.

…… In short, despite all the doubts, now is not a good time to delve into it.

She stood on the long stone steps of Tsukimizaka, raised her head slightly, and looked at the old man in front of her who seemed to be gentle and calm, but in fact had a black belly and self.

At this time, when she looked around in a daze, she suddenly realized something.

…… It seemed like there were many times when she was alone, many times when she had to face difficulties alone, it was like-

The person who appeared next to her was always him.

At the time of the escape of the Imperial Tomb Guard, he was sitting under the porch of Nishi Honganji Temple, drinking tea with her.

On the night of the Yau Koji Incident, when Mr. Yamanan came to inform her to go to the intersection of Yau Koji to help, he was sitting in her room and said to her slowly, "If one day the direction of the main hall deviates from mine, how will the main hall be chosen?"

On the day the Battle of Toba Fushimi broke out, when the Shinsengumi left the Kantōfu, on the eve of the final battle of Hakodate, in the mountains and forests of Niguguchi, when the new government forces were about to break through Bentendaiba and she decided to go to the rescue in place of the deputy chief, and even when she fled the streets of Edo in the middle of the night from Kujo's house, when she had to give up her efforts to rescue the bureau chief and shuttle through the alleys of Edo Castle alone, surrounded by Kujo Michikiyo's men—

Standing beside her were all three days and moons.

Like, it's always been him.

But why?

“…… Will you always be on my side? She unconsciously squirmed her lips and whispered to herself.

The Three Days Moon Sect seemed to be slightly cold.

His thin lips, which always emitted an incomprehensible hahaha laugh, seemed to open a little in surprise, and silently uttered a "haha?" in his throat in shock, but he immediately bent his eyebrows and smiled, as if he had heard the profound meaning of this thoughtless sentence.

"Yes. He said.

On the long stone steps leading to Chusonji Temple, sunlight casts through the lush foliage, and the bright light shines on them like raindrops. Fu Fushen, the most handsome of the five swords in the world, lowered his eyes, stretched out his right hand, turned his back on his hand, and gently touched the cheek of the female god judge with the back of his fingers.

"Whether you're doing the right thing or the wrong thing......"

Fu Fushen's gentle and graceful voice sounded silently on the long staircase, which was empty and empty except for them.

"I've been standing by your side, Yukiba-kun. He said mildly.

The inquisitor didn't tilt her head to avoid the touch of the back of his fingers, but just tilted her head slightly to stare at his face. Then, she blinked slowly.

"Yes. …… You're always there when I'm alone. ”

Fu Fushen, one of the five swords in the world, seemed to have a smile on his face.

However, her next sentence paused as he gently swept the back of his fingers against her cheek.

“…… And then, when I do something wrong, it cleans me up, doesn't it? She asked softly.

Three days Moon Zong's fingertips suddenly stopped on the side of her cheek.

After a moment's pause, he curled the corners of his lips slightly, as if he were about to lean down and approach the face of the Witch.

The Divine Inquisitor didn't dodge, but watched his every move with wide eyes.

The Three Days Moon Sect really did just that. He lowered his face slightly, approached hers, and stopped only two inches on her lips, a different kind of meaning flashing in his beautiful eyes in the shape of a crescent moon.

“…… It depends on what you're going to do—" There seemed to be a sigh in his voice.

The right hand, which had been resting on the side of her cheek, slowly slid onto her jaw, rubbing against her beautifully curved jaw, the tips of their noses almost touching each other.

The Divine Inquisitor slowly curled the corners of her lips.

“…… It's a pity. She whispered.

The next moment, she raised her left hand and grabbed his right wrist, which hooked her jaw, to stop his next move.

“…… Didn't you say that the next time we meet, maybe we can get along-"

Three Days and Moons: !!

His pupils shrank slightly.

Of course, he remembered when he had heard it.

…… In the field of Hakodate, when she is determined to fight the correct course of history to the end, she disguises herself as the deputy head of the Shinsengumi, Toshizo Hijikata, and goes to Bentendaiba.

Now, however, she doesn't seem to have the intention of repeating the mistakes of the past and changing history like those historical revisionists?

Right in front of him, right in this flat spring, didn't she tenaciously turn around and walk out of the Infinite Light Temple, which now left no trace, leaving behind the man she had desperately tried to save a moment ago, in the tragic fate that was destined in history and would soon die?

He sighed slightly, withdrew his hand, and took a step back.

"yes, yes. ”

He agreed.

"So the most important thing we should do is to 'get along', Yukiba-kun. ”

He emphasized the key word meaningfully, then looked up at the building at the top of the steps.

"Let's go, Yukiba-kun. ”

"Do the last thing you wanted to do for that person. Because if you don't, you're not going to leave that person behind. He said.

Female Inquisitor: ?!

A look of surprise appeared on the face of the female inquisitor for a moment.

Fu Fushen, one of the five swords in the world, turned his head and subtly hooked the corners of his lips.

"I think I know you a little bit—"

"You are the kind of character who is difficult to accept frankly and accept the kindness of others. ”

Female Judge: "What ...... are you talking about?!"

It wasn't until this time that the Three Days Moon Sect finally let out that kind of trademark leisurely laughter again.

"Hahaha. ”

He laughed aloud and stepped along.

"Snow Leaf-kun, it's really interesting. ”

"If you can't see that others are kind to you, even if you can't respond, you must try your best to reciprocate - is that so? ”

As he continued to climb the stairs, he slowly and sentence by sentence uttered his judgment of her, regardless of whether the face of the female inquisitor who hurriedly followed him was already red and white.

Ah~ah, that's right.

The author has something to say: September 3:

So what grandpa and sister are fighting for is actually the dominance between two people when they get along.

I always felt that the dialogue in this chapter could not be written too directly, so I revised it several times [sigh

Let's just say that, in my imagination, neither of these two people said anything literally.

For example, when Grandpa says, "I'm always on your side", it doesn't mean that he means "I'm completely on your side".
