Chapter 18: One Man Missing, One Missing, Who Missing?
What appeared in front of Chengye's eyes again was not the sword heart that seemed to be free and easy, but in fact had countless troubles in his heart.
It's the sword heart with a body of blood, and a stunned expression mixed with confusion.
He looks really lonely like this.
Cheng Ye didn't know what this man was like, but compared to the boss of the Wanshiya he had seen before, or the leader of the Shoyi Shishi, Katsura Kotaro, these people were very different from him.
He is different from those people, another kind of loneliness.
"You killed them all?" the flames burned not as strongly as before, and the flickering light of the fire danced in front of them.
In the black phantom around him, no one could see it below.
Appearing here in this dense forest with a bloodstain will attract wild beasts...
This man... Don't you know any of this?
"Ahh No, it's their blood, no matter how much I try to persuade them, they don't listen, even if I want to stop them, but in the end it is my fault that too many people are throwing their lives there. ”
Kenshin came back to his senses, and then he realized that he had come to this place, the place where Cheng Ye was hiding.
Where exactly did it come from, Kenshin doesn't know anymore.
Just staggering, trembling in the bottom of my heart, all the way to this point.
It wasn't until Cheng Ye spoke up that he found out that he was back.
"Na, I said, those things are fine, it has nothing to do with you, those people, if they die, they will die, this is their own choice, in order to fight for a better life in the future, they are willing to give their lives, you..."
It's like this man said, the sword that doesn't kill, he's really... Haven't you ever killed anyone?
Just like the man I saw in the manga, named Kenshin Scarlet Village.
If that's what he... So what is the meaning of his dedication to playing Kenshin in the Scarlet Village?
"Ahh But in my opinion, they are also forced to live, in fact, I... It could be even better. ”
In that world, the declaration he issued expressed his oath not to kill, and now it seems that in this world, it seems to be able to be verified.
Is that enough?
"yes, if you don't kill them, they won't kill you?"
The blood on his body was not his own, but someone else's, and his sword, the most ordinary katana, was there still blood on it?
Whether in that place, stained with the blood of the enemy.
Plundered away... Their lives...
"If people are killed, they will die, and if you don't kill them, they will come and kill you. "I didn't care about the blood that had already dried up on Kenshin's body, and this fishy smell was not a good smell.
Cheng Ye has seen enough blood in these days: "Moreover, you are you, and you are not Kenshin of the Scarlet Village, even if you really call this name, it will not be exactly the same as the behavior of the person in that comic!"
"People swear not to kill because they were executioners before, what about you?
... Isn't it an executioner ... Hahaha!
Is this really what you hear from a child's mouth?
I'm afraid that if it's in my own world, it's the funniest joke.
Kenshin Kizmura is not an executioner, so who else is?
Who is worthy of the status of this executioner?
"You're the first person in years to say I'm not the executioner, and although you don't know anything, I'm still going to say, thank you. ”
No one is better suited to take the oath of not killing, and no one has ever had more blood than himself.
Kenshin Kagemura, according to a certain novel in the world before the crossing, he... In fact, it's the Heavenly Evil Lone Star.
"Eh, it's impossible, you have to know that it's just comics, comics are fiction, even if you... Even if it's possible that you've killed someone, the guys in the war haven't spoken yet. ”
"You... You don't have to take murder too seriously. ”
Cheng Ye is not a very comforting person, on the contrary, if you let her speak badly, maybe she will be more dexterous.
Although his mouth is a little stupid, he is always comforting.
Although Cheng Ye, he doesn't know Kenshin's past.
"General... How did your brother die? There was silence for a long time, and as the flames flickered weaker and weaker, the dark charcoal began to show.
Kenshin met the flames in his eyes, and then asked, "Yinshi and the wig, didn't they succeed in saving the general?"
"Brother, he... Brother he... It was poisoned by someone, and he was killed with the poison applied to the silver needle, and when he took the opportunity to shake hands, his brother was..."
When he talked about his brother, the general of the country, Tokugawa Shigeru, Chengye's mood couldn't help but be low.
That was her last relative in the world, and it was also her best brother, but she didn't expect to be killed in the end.
died in front of her eyes,
Then everything about peace, and about Edo, changed.
"I see... Is this the world that doesn't exist without me?"
The only thing that is different from this world is that world, and you can see it here.
No, no, according to the concept that the two worlds are almost the same, this parallel world must also have people who are the same as themselves.
It is possible that he is not called Kenshin Kakamura, and it is possible that he is not as miserable as himself, but in addition to the three of Gintoki, Takasugi, and Wig, there must be a senior brother.
Just like Kenshin.
But why haven't I seen that person appear until now?
Or did he actually die early?
"After tonight, I'll take you to Edo, there are some people who have to follow them anyway, although there are a lot of bastards in Kabukicho, but it's the best place for you to hide. ”
Thinking about it now, since Mao Mao is dead, that Xixi should be on the throne.
Then what should happen next in Songhai, what will happen, should be expected.
The real selection group will leave, and the return group will not exist, and the next action, Cheng Ye, can only be handed over to the mother-in-law of Dengshi.
Only she can protect the safety of Cheng Ye.
"Eh.. Do you want to follow Kagura's boss and go to those people's troubles?"
Chengye looked at Kenshin in surprise, and then said: "If you want to go, you can do it, but your oath not to kill, it's better not to keep it, otherwise, you won't be able to live." ”
"Don't worry, even if I don't kill, I can still live. And live well. ”
Judging from his own world, the next step is to go to the universe to find Takasugi.
But in this world, do the Heavenly Dao people also have the so-called Twelve Elders?
Kenshin didn't know, but with Gintoki and them acting together, even if something really happened, he would have time to stop it.
Although they don't know themselves, this rare bond is one of the few people they care about in their lives.
Their life and death, even if the world is different, do not want to see them die.
"Cut, don't you catch up with them by then, you can only watch their battleship flying high on the ground in a daze. "Chengye, does she want Kenshin to go, or doesn't she want him to go?
In the heart of a small person, it belongs to the heart of Chengye.
She didn't say it because it was a little secret that belonged to a girl.
"Ah~ Anyway, there is more than one ship in the port, when the time comes, won't I just catch up?" Kenshin smiled and touched Chengye's little head, using a hand that had never held a sword, that is, a hand that was not stained with blood.
"Whatever you want! I'll ignore you!" As if the princess had a temper outburst, Sumiya glared at Kenshin viciously, and returned to his place under the tree in disgust.
He lay down with his back to Kenshin.
"I'm sleeping! Don't disturb me!"
"Yes, yes, my princess of the night. As he spoke, Kenshin sighed and continued.
"Good night, may you have a good dream. ”
"Your own dreams. ”
———————— ————————
"What's wrong?Gintoki?" while discussing the next course of action and the next steps, Gintoki, who was stirring his favorite strawberry milk, suddenly froze.
The body trembled, and his eyes flickered irrepressibly at this moment, turning and not knowing what he was looking for.
But looking around, he couldn't find it.
"I don't know, I suddenly feel like something is missing in my heart, my brain is a little dizzy, am I drinking too much?" shook his head, this abrupt feeling came really inexplicably.
What's missing?
What are you looking for?
Shouldn't it, the izakaya, the izakaya of the mother-in-law of the ascending state, shouldn't they all be familiar to themselves, dressed up as usual?
But why did I suddenly have palpitations at this time, and another scenery faintly appeared in my mind.
Here, there should be another person, who is that person... That person...
Is there really one more?
