Goro Fujita: "......"

After a sudden shock, he listened to what she had said to him in a bit of a daze—she seemed to be speaking in a language he also understood, but what she said sounded as unintelligible to him.

"You...... Are you really going to ...... Ezo?" he asked blankly.

Then he saw her silently bow to him. A faint smile rose between her brows.

That is, I have already made up my mind.

There had always been a high threshold in his heart that he could not cross, the best, the most reliable, the most trustworthy and revered man he had ever seen, the man who was willing to follow him, the man who was still firmly supporting the banner of the shogunate—nay, rather, bushido—at the setting of the sun, the deputy chief of the Shinsengumi.

He's not a man of self-indulgence. Although he is usually silent, he also has the confidence that comes from being a top swordsman in his heart, and he has never lost his calm no matter what difficult situations he faces.

However, when facing the deputy chief—to be exact, when the deputy chief and Kiyohara Yukiha were together—he always had a feeling of powerlessness. Although sometimes the two people were just talking about official business normally, they didn't show that kind of amazing tacit understanding that people couldn't talk about.

In fact, the deputy chief and Kiyohara Yukiha have never shown that kind of tacit understanding in front of others, but they often quarrel and shout, just like that kind of stupid couple-

Ah, yes, that's the word.

Although in the old days there was no god-level tacit understanding, and on the contrary, they often acted as if they were not in the same line of thought with each other, but even then, at the end of the day, when it was time to say goodbye, everyone would still feel that as long as those two people kept moving together side by side like that, it was as if things could never reach the worst, as if those who had disappeared into the sunset. The best times from the past are still going on.

That's the scariest thing about it.

For him, the kind of thought that had formed a stereotype in everyone's hearts eroded his heart, which also wanted to be close to her, and made him stagnant. Every time he felt closer to her, he thought of the man who had disappeared into the sunset of the shogunate.

Of course, he knows that he has his strengths. He also knew that she saw the merits. Even he would think of her again and again when he was separated in Aizu, stand in front of him with tears in his eyes, and say that he would go back to her after he had fulfilled his obligations as a samurai, and then go after her—

But will he be able to catch up with her?

"So, Yukiba-kun ......"

He spoke unconsciously.

“...... Please choose me. ”

Liu Quan: ?!

Standing in front of him, her eyes widened slightly, and she showed a look of great consternation, as if she had never thought that he would actually say such a thing one day.

And he continued, as if he had pulled the plug in his heart, and all the memories, all the concerns, all the evasions and hesitations, all poured out of there in an instant, and then rushed into the sky and disappeared without a trace.

"Please choose me. He repeated it again.

"Even if ...... Even if one day I see the deputy chief again—"

He paused again with great difficulty.

“...... Please choose me as well. ”

Liu Quan: "...... Huh?!"

Fujita Goro - No, Saito finally fixed his gaze on her face. There was a sparkle in those dark blue eyes, and they were the eyes that had already made up their minds.

Like, that night in Aizu, he told her that he intended to stay and live with Aizu.

"If you don't come back, I'm sure you want to come back. He said, in a calm and serious tone.

"I will always believe in you......"

He paused. Perhaps because what he was about to say next was a little bit of a hindrance, a faint red tide appeared on his face again.

“...... Yes, always waiting for you here. He finally spoke.

His gaze was firmly fixed on her, and his eyes seemed to contain an unbreakable will, straight and bright, like the brightest star in the night sky.

"Just like you believed in me and expected me to come back to you. ”

He paused again, took a deep breath, and said:

"When you come back...... I'll give you an endless cherry blossom cake as a gift for your reunion. ”

Willow Springs: !!

For some reason, tears suddenly rushed into her eyes. She had to immediately tilt her head and take a deep breath before she could barely hold back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes. Then she gazed at him again, and saw that his lips and jaw were tensed, and he looked firm and stubborn, like a stubborn teenager, and suddenly felt her heart thump.

That's not good. If it goes on like this, my heart will burst.

She had to take several deep breaths, but when she spoke again, there was still a nasal tone in her voice.

“...... Why?" she said.

He was silent for a long time, only the slight fluttering of his nose showed that his heart was difficult to calm down at the moment.

In the end, he replied word by word: "Because...... Yoshimitsu Awataguchi has only made one sword in his life - that is, 'one period and one vibration'. ”

Her eyes widened slowly, as if she couldn't believe her ears.

He continued: "Because it's a treasure that you can only meet once in a lifetime. ”

His voice is as clear and clear as the drops of water dripping from the eaves of the house at night, as if it will wash away all the darkness and hesitation of the world, and split the confusion, like the morning sun.

“...... It is impossible to meet a second time. ”

He said.

"There can be no more treasures like that in the world. ”

With that, he took another deep breath and looked at her very earnestly.

"So, Yukiba-kun ......"

“...... Please stay with me. He said.

He saw her in front of him with her eyes slightly wide, as if she was very surprised. Yet he stood there so unrelentingly, trying to convey by the serious expression on his face the fact that he had taken the decision he thought was the best for him very seriously, and then he saw her blink suddenly, her long eyelashes flashing a few times, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and she laughed.

She didn't answer his words. However, the next moment, he felt that his eyes were full of flowers-

She actually stretched out her hands and wrapped her arms around his neck, leaned forward and tiptoed slightly, her lips slamming against his.

Fujita Goro subconsciously let out an exclamation of "uh?!" from his throat, but the exclamation was quickly engulfed between their lips. As she leaned forward with some suddenness and force, he lost his balance and took a step backwards, slamming his back against the door.

Almost immediately, Fujita Goro was so nervous that his forehead sweated.

This time it was too loud...... It's impossible not to alarm the other people in this mansion, right?

But that was the end of his sober thinking.

For not only did she put her lips close to his, but she also had to stick out the tip of her tongue inch by inch, lick it slightly over his lips, which were slightly open in astonishment, and then unceremoniously burrow between his teeth, playfully teasing his lips and tongue, biting his lower lip, and finally curling the tip of his tongue, as if to sweep his soul out of her mouth and swallow it into her own body, and she herself would keep it forever.

At the same time, his back slammed against the door, and then pressed against the door by her close body, without a single gap, and her soft and delicate body clung to his, making his heart pound as if it were about to burst through his chest and jump directly to the ground in the next moment.

She didn't say "yes".

However, this is what "good" means.

He could feel her arms around his neck, her body pressed against his embrace, his breathing as messy as hers, his heart beating in his chest, as if to prove how nervous and close they were, his calm mind, which he had always prided himself on, was now a mess, so confused that only the senses of his lips and the ends of his body were clear—there, a body temperature that did not belong to him ironed him, warmed him, like in Aizu, in Dounan...... The figure that emerged in his heart when he was dead and scarred on the field, in the moments when he could only be warmed by memories in the ice and snow.

However, at this time, in front of him, she felt her lips tremble slightly, as if she was about to cry.

In her heart, there was a secret that was more deadly than the whereabouts of the deputy chief. After thinking about it, she couldn't frankly say the fact that she was a visitor from another world and that she was about to leave.

The opportunity to kiss him and hug him like this is the last time in my life. Just as every time they made an agreement, they would use it as the name of the national treasure-level sword.

One session and one session.

It's like hugging him like this, but it feels like it's far away from him, and I can't shorten this distance anymore, why is it so sad?

Before the tears could reach their lips, she stepped back slightly, letting go of her hands, and instead wrapped her arms around his lean, powerful waist as she left his.

But she didn't dare to look at his bright eyes again. So she lowered her gaze, and in order to hide the expression on her face, she deliberately touched the tip of his nose with the tip of her nose, and said in a dumb voice: "Saito......"

She paused as she said the familiar name.

“...... One. ”

Although this gesture at the moment made her unable to see the expression on his face, Xiao Yi's serious and sincere face must be full of question marks.

Ahh

“...... This is not Yijun's real name. She continued.

He let out a low "ah" above her. Maybe it's an affirmation, maybe it's just a surprise at why she's suddenly bringing up such a topic.

Liu Quan blinked slowly, blinking away a drop of water that had condensed on his eyelashes.

"But I think it's a good name...... she said slowly.

"'One'...... It means 'first'. ”

"First time...... I feel a deep sense of unwavering trust, and I feel reassuring......"

"Even if I didn't complete the mission, even if everyone said I betrayed the Shinsengumi......"

"At a time when everyone else may be starting to waver......"

"Yijun, you seriously believe in me. ”

Her fingers slowly ran over the skin on the back of his neck, making him shiver involuntarily.

"How nice it is to get to know you...... What a good thing. ”

Even if the truth is revealed, Kiyohara Yukiha's inside is just a rotten puppet, a despicable spy dancing on the tip of a knife...... The eldest lady who has a false name, or a knife that is subject to someone else-

Although she didn't say these facts explicitly, she guided him to investigate. As long as he can find out the person of Kujo Daoqing, it will not be difficult to find out some of the truths behind the name "Kujo Noriko".

And yet he still stands in front of her, saying that he trusts her, that he likes her, and that he wants to be with her......

That is, no matter how time changes, no matter how bad things happen, he will always be clear and tenacious, and he will always be a gentleman.

And after hearing her words, he first widened his eyes and showed a look of surprise, then his eyebrows slowly softened, and finally he lowered his head slightly, raised his hands, and suddenly held her cheeks.

Liu Quan: ?!

Then she watched as his face approached her again, with his forehead gently pressed against hers. It's not as passionate and heart-pounding as kissing, but it's indescribably intimate and warm.

He said, "...... Don't cry. ”

Only then did Liu Quan realize that his tears had flowed from the corners of his eyes to his lips.

She had to sniffle, and was about to raise her hand to wipe the tears from her face when she felt his thumb move slightly, and the fingertips gently wiped away the traces of water that were already in his hands.

There was a gentle smile in his voice.

"I'm not without ...... Don't like you. I didn't take a fancy to anyone else...... "he said.

Although saying these two former lines was tantamount to another shameful play for him, which made him stumble, he still firmly finished speaking.

"That was the right decision for me. ”

The author has something to say: May 7:

I've changed this chapter three times...... I think it's so hard to write

So I'm sorry to drag it out until now!

I always feel that as a sous chef, the deputy chief is also an insurmountable wall in Yijun's mind, so let's explain it in the end~~

PS. In addition, I wrote a part of the ending at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and added a few hundred words of sugar again, you can take a look at ww again
