"They tried to resist, but unfortunately, they were no match for me. ”

……

"Whew...... Ahh

Qing Shui walked to the cabinet without a word, took out the red wine and glass inside, and poured half a glass, but her nose smelled the smell that she once liked but didn't feel like before, she sighed and put the glass and bottle back.

The higher-ups vetoed her plan to rescue Sakuruma and Norein, there is no news from the Black Riders, Sojuro has also disappeared, and now she is a little confused, not knowing what to do next, she is burdened with the fate of the entire keel and the whole world, but there are too few chess pieces available now, and everything seems to have fallen into a dead end.

"When the worlds coincide, what the hell is that......" Qing Shui sat on the windowsill by the window, looking up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, the clues of this answer were too scarce, they knew little about the new world that the gods and the early creation, and they had no idea what they were planning.

"Smack. ”

Qing Shui walked to the sofa, suddenly touched something at his feet, looked down, under the moonlight, a trace of blood oozed from his ankle, but when he looked around, there was nothing.

Curious, she bent down and reached out to feel the empty place.

"This is ......" A cold touch of steel passed to his fingertips, and a slender knife slowly appeared as he grasped the cylindrical object, "Noreen's obsidian, was it placed here?"

Probably Noreen knew that she couldn't defeat the strong enemy in front of her, so she put the obsidian invisibility that condensed a variety of abilities here, and it would be even worse if this thing was obtained by the enemy, but it also showed that she didn't have any obsidian blessings on her body now, and she was just an ordinary human in the new world.

Trying to feel the power in that knife, Qing Shui gradually felt a little out of breath, in order to evenly spread the power of obsidian, Sojuro deliberately dispersed the obsidian with the ability evenly in the two knives when creating them, just one knife has this heavy energy, I really don't know how Noreen was able to use these two knives.

Qing Shui picked up another knife and tried to keep them, but the moment he touched the hilt, a vague text quickly flowed into his consciousness. She immediately picked herself up and brought the words together to make them seem clearer.

"Protecting the ...... of the Four Houses"

Those words are combined into a sentence, and no amount of information can be obtained from the hilt of the knife after that.

"Protecting the four palaces, could it be said that it is the revelation left by Sojuro?" Qing Shui can't manage so much, no matter who left this information, it means that some danger is about to happen around the four palaces, and she can't let herself make other mistakes!

Putting on his coat, Shimizu hurried to the medical department, which was very quiet, only the nurse on duty was at the front desk.

"Miss Shimizu. ”

"Is the fourth house there?"

The nurse was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and pointed to the stairs: "Miss Shinomiya is in the bedroom on the sixth floor, but she should have rested." ”

"I see, inform Doctor Tenma to come to the room of the fourth house, I have something to look for him. ”

"Yes, Miss Shimizu. ”

Shimizu took the elevator to the sixth floor, which is the bedroom of some members of the medical department, who usually don't have time to go home or other dormitories, so they choose to live here, and Shinomiya has also stayed in this place to prevent emergency treatment.

The corridor on the sixth floor was dark, after all, the power had just been restored, and the voltage had not been able to return to normal levels.

"Tuk Tuk"

After a long time, the door of the fourth house slowly opened, and she rubbed her eyes and turned on the light in the hallway, but the light was as weak as the one in the corridor outside, and it still flickered from time to time.

"Miss Shimizu, what's the matter?" Shinomiya was surprised by Shimizu's arrival, she rarely came here.

"Can I go in?" asked Qing Shui as he looked at the dimly lit room inside.

Sigong had just woken up, and his brain was still in chaos, and he forgot to let Qing Shui in for a while.

"Of course, please come in. Shinomiya took out the instant coffee from the cupboard, stirred it a few times with a stirring rod, and brought it to the living room outside, "Miss Shimizu, there is only instant coffee here, I hope you won't mind." ”

Qing Shui didn't speak, just glad that nothing had happened.

After a long time, Shinomiya raised his head and glanced at Qing Shui, she was in the dark, but she could see something shining on her face, so she asked, "So, Miss Qing Shui came here to find me so late, is there something wrong?"

Qing Shui shook his head: "It's nothing, just to come and see you." ”

"Look at me......" Sinomiya was flattered, and hurriedly said: "Miss Shimizu should be resting at this time, and Teacher Tianma also said that you can't stay up late." ”

Sakurama and Noreen were taken away by Yunjing, and no one knew about it except for the high-level and the Chibi Zhen and Lucy who were present, and if Shinomiya knew that his best friend might be in danger at any time now, I don't know if he would talk to himself so calmly.

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about me, you should be very tired today, you go and rest, I'm here alone. Qing Shui held the coffee cup in her hand, and the bitter taste made her brain sober up a little.

"How can this be?"

"Wait a minute, Pegasi will come here, and you can rest assured that he will accompany me. ”

"Tenma-sensei, okay, then I'll keep this cup of coffee for him. "Sinomiya really doesn't want to be strong, today fighting against the monsters that appeared in the connecting gate, she kept tossing and turning on various battlefields, and her energy and physical strength were enormous, but because of this, no one was injured in the keel.

"Well, the door doesn't have to be closed, I want to see you at any time. ”

"Oh. Sinomiya didn't think much about anything, and casually agreed.

Shinomiya returned to bed, and she quickly fell asleep from exhaustion.

About ten minutes or so, there was a knock on the door, and Qing Shui knew that it was Tenma coming, and at the same time glanced at the fourth palace on the bed, she had already fallen asleep, and their conversation would take place without anyone knowing.

"Miss Shimizu, you're still looking for me to come here so late. Tenma poked his head and asked, "What about the four palaces?"

"I let her go to sleep, she is not in good spirits, she worked hard today. ”

"That's right, she's working harder as a deputy minister than I, oh?

Tenma took a sip from his cup, smacked his lips and said, "It's a little cold, though." ”

"It's the fourth house, she said to leave it to you. ”

"That's right. Tenma had been thinking about Qing Shui's expression, and unlike her usual tiredness, she could already be called a little abnormal today, "Miss Qing Shui, you should know that I worked as a psychiatrist for two years before becoming a surgeon, right?"

"I came to you to talk about it. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The First Cavalry of the New World attacked the headquarters today, you should know about it, right?"

Tenma nodded, "I know, otherwise they wouldn't have to go to such great lengths to repair the electrical box." ”

"We lost. ”

"What do you mean?"

"He took Sakuruma and Noreen away. ”

"What?!" Tenma almost didn't control his emotions and looked at the four palaces in the room, then slowly sat down, "Did you block this news?"

"Yes, but the higher-ups vetoed the operation to rescue Sakurama. ”

"If it were me, I would make the same choice as them. Tenma said.

Qing Shui was a little puzzled and wondered, "Why?"

"I don't know what Sakurama means to you, but as a Supreme Commander, it's taboo to take all the gambles regardless of the overall situation, and if they want to kill Sakurama, they don't have to deliberately take her from your presence. I understand you want to get them out, but it's the wrong way. ”

"Do you mean I'm too impulsive......"

"Yes, you weren't like that in the past, think about it. ”

Shimizu was silent for a few minutes, and Dr. Tenma's words seemed to open her mind, he was right, maybe he had bet everything on Sakuruma too early, and this was just evading his own responsibility!

"There's another thing, and that's what I'm here for. Qing Ping recovered his emotions and said in a low voice.

"Anything else? God, please don't have any more bad news. ”

"Yesterday afternoon, the high-level headquarters received a video from Nara, which was a video of Sojuro being killed by the first horseman. ”

Tenma suddenly had a nervous breakdown, and kept rubbing his temples: "I said don't let me hear bad news......"

"That's not bad news. Qing Shui said firmly: "I know that person, he can't die like this, knowing that he won't participate in a battle without winning." And just now, I picked up the two obsidian that Noreen had left in the office. ”

Qing Shui took the two knives and showed his form, spreading them on the table: "Sojuro is the one who proposed to cast obsidian into a weapon, I know that he is not alone in this plan, although he has the strength to do it, but he still needs the help of one person." He never told me about it, but Tenma, I know it's you. ”

Tenma didn't deny it, but nodded, "Sojuro said that he needs me to help him adjust the distribution of obsidian energy. ”

"When I touched the handle of this knife just now, a string of words came to my mind, you participated in the production process, you should know what he did in it, right?"

"That's the way to contact urgently, and Noreen doesn't have obsidian like us, so Sojuro made one of them with a liaison function. Tenma pauses and asks, "What are those words?"

"Protect the four houses. ”

"Maybe you're right, if he's dead, it's impossible to save so much space. ”

"...... so"

"He's alive and just doesn't want anyone to find him. ”
