A few months later, in front of the mourning hall of the Jinguji family, there was a portrait of Chie and Chigusa's mother, who had died suddenly two days earlier, and according to the servant, died of a long-term overwork and died of cardiac arrest that night.

After several days of crying, Chie finally couldn't shed a single tear anymore, but Chigusa was still crying bitterly over the death of her mother, they hadn't seen Jinguji Kirri for a long time, and he must have felt very uncomfortable.

"Chigusa, it's already night, let's go back, tomorrow is the day of my mother's burial, she doesn't want to see us like this, right?" Chie re-lit the lotus lamp on the altar and pulled her sister to stand up, she had become very haggard these days, which made people feel distressed.

"Sister go to sleep first, I want to stay with my mother for a while, just a little while, and I'll be back to my room soon." ”

Chie picked up a coat from the chair next to her and put it on Chigusa's shoulder: "I know, Chigusa, it's a little cold at night, be careful not to catch a cold." ”

"It's okay, with my mother here, neither demons nor goblins can get close to me. ”

Chie finally reluctantly glanced at her mother's portrait and returned to the house with red eyes.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak......"

There was a screeching sound on the floor, and it seemed as if only Chie could hear it, and it was like stepping on the heart, and every step was so heavy.

"Smack!"

Passing by a room with a light on, there was a sudden sound of slapping the table inside, this is the study of Jinguji Kirri, it's already twelve o'clock, hasn't he slept so late?

Chie carefully opened the door a crack, and his father chose to light a candle instead of electric light, and under the candle flame, his figure was stretched very long, lying on the table and panting all the time, and he didn't seem to be the only one at the table.

The other was dressed in mourning clothes, and it appeared that he was a member of the clan who had not left after coming to worship his mother during the day.

In the middle of the night, what was my father discussing with this man? And the posture was clearly like preparing for a fight, what was going on?

Chie pressed her ear to the door and vaguely heard the sound in the room.

"Cheri, if the evidence is insufficient, even the police station will not accept this case, you don't want to uncover the truth alone, if the opponent is Cheri, you should know what kind of means he will use against the Jinguji family. The voice sounded older, with a slight sense of vicissitudes.

"Uncle Kiri?" I don't know why they mentioned the name of the police station and Jinguji Temple, what is the truth? Hearing this, Chie felt more and more that her mother's death was not so simple, and she had to find something more useful.

"Is that what left Himhiro dead?!" Kiri slammed his fist on the table for the second time.

The person on the other side didn't speak, just sighed silently.

"Master Truth, I have to find out the truth no matter what, Nozomi didn't tell me anything before leaving, so I can only rely on myself to get her justice, besides, the two children of Chie and Chigusa ......" Kiri choked and looked up at the gray-haired middle-aged man in front of him.

Nishimura Mari, this man is the master of Kiritsu, he taught all his understanding of kendo to Kirri when he was young, and he was able to become a figure on par with the swordsmanship of the Jinguji family, and he was able to become a figure on par with the master of swordsmanship, Soji Takagi.

"Is that person Uncle Nishimura?" Chie looked into the room again, that back was indeed very similar to the impression of Nishimura, on weekdays he would occasionally come to the house to guide himself and Chigusa's swordsmanship, I have to say, the only person who Kiri respects is Nishimura, he does have a stronger strength than Takagi Soji and Jinguji Kirry, but he never intends to use it to fight for something.

"If it's for their sake, the truth is even more untouchable to you. ”

"Master Truth!"

"Cheri, are you two brothers really going to go down the path of fratricide?" Nishimura said lightly.

"He's already waiting for me on this road, the evidence is not enough at the moment, one day, I'll dig up the real cause of Nozomi's death and slaughter that bastard with my own hands!"

"Uhhh

With a flash of the knife, the whole table was split in two, and Cheri put the knife into the sheath and threw the favorite knife to the side of the ground.

Chie outside was too frightened to speak, and it was the first time she saw that loving father with such anger!

Her mother's death was related to Cheri, and Chie returned to the room with this information, but she didn't think that Uncle Che Hu would do anything excessive to his mother, after all, the position of the head of the family had fallen into the hands of Cheri, and whatever he did now was useless, and once Cheri sat in that position, he would definitely not be able to shake it.

Back in the room, Chie only felt that the bones in her body were almost falling apart, and she fell asleep in bed for less than a minute.

"Sister, Sister Chie. Chigusa's voice seemed to be heard in her sleep, and Chie struggled to open her eyes, it was already morning, and it felt as if she had only slept for less than ten minutes, "You're awake, Daddy is waiting for us, get dressed and go over quickly." ”

"Oh. Chie agreed in a daze, changed into a black funeral dress and followed Chigusa out of the room.

It was surprisingly cold outside, and Chie shivered involuntarily, she was a little more sober.

Cheri was waiting for the clansmen and daughters of the family in the main house, and the moment she saw Cheri, Chie seemed to recall the events of last night and subconsciously took a few steps back.

And this scene happened to be seen by the Jinguji Kiri who was standing next to Cheri, who slowly walked towards the two sisters with his brows twisted, and squatted down to look at Chie.

Chie was hairy when she was seen, and even the breath she exhaled was cold, and Chigusa also felt that Chie's palms were sweating, so she blocked in front of Che Jia.

"Sister, are you uncomfortable?"

Qianhui suddenly sensed something and nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Chigusa, you can take Chie to rest for a while, and I'll call you when the time comes. Kiria stroked the top of Chigusa's head and hugged her as she was about to return to the back room.

At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Che Yan's shoulder, and he could almost see the green tendons bursting out of the back of his hand.

"What are you going to do with my daughters?"

"Daddy?" Chigusa looked back at Kiri in surprise.

Cheli coldly opened the cutter and escorted the daughters back to the room.

"You are not allowed to touch them again in the future, there is something I haven't settled with you yet, so come with me later. ”

"Oh, is this the way my brother looks at my eldest brother? With a sinister smile on his face, he slowly walked out of the main house.

……

"Sister, what's wrong today? I feel scared of Uncle Che's appearance. ”

"I said it was uncomfortable. "Chie doesn't plan to tell Chigusa that kind of thing, this child's personality is very simple, and she must not be involved in trouble.

"My sister won't get sick today, because today is a very important day, and my sister said something like that last night, so it's impossible not to keep the agreement with my mother. ”

"In that case?"

"It's a little cold at night, be careful not to catch a cold. Chie had such a sentence in her mind, indeed, there was no reason for her sister to pay attention to her body, but she was riddled with diseases.

"Chigusa, we've always been the best sisters, right?" Chie asked, pausing and holding Chigusa's hand.

Chigusa was stunned and said in surprise: "Sister, has something happened?"

"No, no, I'm fine, let's get out. Chie adjusted her breathing, she was not very clear in her heart about the context of what she heard last night, but she vaguely felt a faint line, and she probably noticed something, but there was no concealment.

A few hours later, watching her mother's body buried in a small land, Chie and Chigusa did not shed a single tear, Chigusa became a lot stronger, perhaps she was suppressing the pain in her heart, and her trembling lips were the best evidence.

Chie stole a glance at the coffin, he prayed reverently at the coffin, on the surface there was nothing suspicious, just an ordinary clansman who had come to attend the funeral.

By the afternoon, all the people had dispersed, and only Che Hu remained at home.

"Cheri, even the police station won't accept it if there is no evidence, in this case, Master Nishimura must have already told you, right? My answer is the same as his, you don't have enough evidence to prove that I killed Xi, she just died suddenly from overwork, not only the doctor, but even the mortuary can see it. ”

Cheri's brows furrowed, and he grabbed Che Li's collar: "What do you mean by what you said in the morning?"

"In the morning?" Che Yan thought for a moment and said, "Oh, that's what you said, right? It's not interesting, it's just for you to be wary of your surroundings, because I'm the eldest son, and there are naturally many more people who support me than you, even if your swordsmanship surpasses mine, people's hearts won't change." We can only blame my father for making a will that is too unclear, he made us kill each other, and if he had moved the position of head of the family to the eldest son earlier, everything would not have happened. Cheri, do you regret it?"

"What do you mean......" Cheri's eyes turned red and he glared at Cheri viciously.

"Back then, you were anxious to get the position of the head of the family to fight against Soji Takagi, in my opinion, it was just an act that a fool could do, and you were so inconsiderate that you didn't notice the changes around you at all. ”

"Change?"

"That's what I'm going to do and take with me everything you've had. ”

"Che Hu, you bastard!" Che Li angrily swung his fist at Che Hu, but he easily stopped him.

"You don't have any evidence from me right now, but ah, if you hurt me here, I think any police station with a sign on your shoulder will handle it, right?"
