Chapter 156: The Rabbit and the Emperor
"And then?" asked Reimu. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"And then, and then there was no then. "When I became an adult, I left the place that broke my heart, bought a ticket, and prepared to cross the ocean to the New World...... That is, the United States today. ”
"However, not long after I set off, I was hit by a storm and the boat capsized, and I drifted with the waves to a small island called 'Sado'. Of course, that's another story. ”
After saying this, Nalan turned around, leaned on the carved railing of the observation deck, looked at Reimu's side face, and said lazily:
"That's all for the story of the first shrine maiden Hakuri Shuoyue. ”
"The rest of the story, if you really want to hear it," Nalan Yu continued, "Then let's find another time another day and talk about it in detail, but now ......"
He turned his head and happened to see a glimmer of dawn in the sky, which cut through the night like a blade, and then laughed again:
"It's almost time to wake up those drunks. ”
"That pendant ......," Reimu said, leaning on the railing, staring intently at the pale horizon in the distance, "Can you show me?"
When Nalan Yu heard this, he took out the mini yin-yang jade pendant from his clothes, took it off his neck, and handed it to Reimu.
"No!"
Reimu took the pendant, put it in the palm of his hand, looked at it carefully, and handed it back to Nalan Twilight without saying a word.
"You've met a great person. ”
A moment later, she said.
"I can't deny that. ”
"If I were her," Reimu continued, "I'd kill you at the beginning, and nothing would happen after that." ”
"Oh, really?" said Nalan Twilight with a smile, "Then I want to thank you for not killing that day." ”
No doubt he was referring to the battle with Reimu for the first time.
"You ......"
Reimu knew that she had failed by pretending to be ruthless, her face flushed, and she opened her mouth wide, but she couldn't speak, so she had to shake her face, turn around and leave.
"That pendant, it's best to keep it as a treasure, maybe it can save your life. ”
When crossing the threshold between the balcony and the hallway, Reimu deliberately stopped and turned back to say this.
"I don't need to say it, I will. Nalan said.
After all, this is the only relic left in the world by Shuoyue.
He leaned lazily against the railing, his back to the dawn that tore through the night, facing Reimu's back. Only when her footsteps completely disappeared into the dark corridor did he raise his head and shouted into the roof of the Red Devil Pavilion:
"Hey, rabbit! it's time to come down, she's gone!"
As soon as the words fell, I heard a "click", and a short figure scurried down from the roof, and when I looked closely, it was a barefoot imp with rabbit ears.
"It's not a rabbit, it's an emperor, how many times have I said it!"
This little monster, Emperor Inhata, was not polite at all in the face of Nalan Twilight, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and complained unhappily as soon as he came up.
Although she is a "little" monster, her age is not much younger than Nalan Twilight...... But, after all, it's a rabbit!
"The rabbit is the emperor, and the emperor is the rabbit. Nalan smiled, "The synonym comes." ”
"I'm a rabbit, what is Reizen?"
"You're stupid, Reisen is Reisen! I don't understand why you ask such a question. ”
"You bastard, look at your feet!"
Impulsively, the emperor went up and kicked Nalan Twilight's crotch, but he grabbed his ankle with one hand and lifted him upside down—just like he had done three hundred years ago when he was possessed by an evil spirit.
"The truth still has to be taught," Nalan Yu raised the emperor a little higher so that she could see his face, or chin, "Why can you kick me without a sneak attack?"
"Damn, let me go!"
The emperor screamed, fluttering wildly into the air, punching and kicking, but he couldn't touch Nalan twilight. I only heard Nalan Hao laugh evilly and said:
"Let you go, okay!"
Then he let go directly, and dropped the emperor with an upside-down onion, almost knocking out her two proud front teeth.
"Hmm......"
The emperor was speechless, so he could only sit on the ground, covering her teeth with both hands, with tears in his eyes.
"Scum, Lese, deserve to be single for a lifetime!"
After covering it for a while, the emperor stood up, stomped on the dusty little foot, and bared his teeth and scolded.
Nalan Yu didn't say a word, just squinted and smiled, and reached out to touch her head by the way...... Then it was bitten.
It's really a rabbit that bites people when it's in a hurry.
After he pulled his finger out of the emperor's mouth, the two stopped talking. Both of them were on the railing, and from a distance, they watched the sunrise quietly.
The morning sun gradually rose, and the morning light reflected the exterior wall of the Red Devil Pavilion in red, and I don't know if the color of the sun was stronger here, or the original color of the Red Devil Pavilion was stronger.
The fiery clouds on the zenith were like cotton wool, and they were endless, but they could not be connected in a complete piece—looking at the sky, today is another good day.
The time at sunrise is always fleeting, and after a while, the sun is a little dazzling. Nalan turned her head away and stopped looking directly at the sun, which had already been revealed, but accidentally bumped into Emperor Inaba's eyes—what a coincidence, she also looked this way.
As soon as they met their eyes, the emperor was startled, and immediately pinned his head to the other side, leaving Nalan Hao with the back of his head, but opened his mouth again and asked in a low voice:
"Before the moon left, she did say that she would forgive me...... Right?"
"You've been with her longer than me, you don't know her as a person, Emperor?" Nalan said, "There's no forgiveness, she doesn't hold a grudge against you at the beginning, not at all." ”
"I know, she never holds a grudge against anyone," the emperor'......s voice sounded very lost, "she has never 'hated' such an ugly thing in her heart, she won't even be angry, I really don't know how this kind of person survives in the world." ”
"But, ......," the emperor sighed, "I really don't want her to 'not hate me.'" I wish she had lost her temper, even if it was beating me up, kicking me away, and never allowing me to go back, better than it was now. I have done unforgivable things, but I have escaped the punishment I deserve, and even if she can forgive me, I can't forgive myself!"
Nalan Yu saw that the emperor's shoulders were trembling slightly. Even if he couldn't see her face, he knew she was crying. He didn't know how to comfort her, and he didn't feel the need to comfort her.
"Do you know what I think?" Nalan said in a flat tone, "I want Shuoyue to feel that it was worth it for her to risk her life to save me. I don't understand your mood and I'm not interested in understanding, by the way, it's time for me to go......"
"That's all for today, just staying here and reminiscing about the past won't change anything. ”
After saying that, he turned and left, and had just taken two steps, but suddenly stopped, and said without looking back:
"By the way, if you really have the intention of repenting, it's better to do less pranks in the future, and Shuoyue is still thinking about you before she dies......"
"Stupid Nalan Twilight!"
Before he could finish speaking, the emperor kicked him in the ass - she had really held it for too long.
