Chapter 19: The Operation of Oranges
The two girls with pink hair, the twin maids of the Tono family, no need to be introduced, Shinji knows who they are - the two orphans of the Wujing family, the four major exorcist families, give people a cheerful and lively impression of the elder sister Amber, and the younger sister Jade with an expressionless face like a doll.
Those who are familiar with "Tsukihime" know that the Tono family is a god pit, and the source of all evil, Tono Maki has been digging a pit for a long time, leaving a huge mess for the next generation, and finally the next generation of the Tono family is not physically and mentally sound, all of them have a black history, and the worst of them are the two sisters Amber and Jade.
Originally, the two sisters' personalities were not like this, they were both cheerful and lively good girls. However, Amber Amber has been constantly invaded (clams) since the age of eight as a tool to maintain his mental condition, and his mind gradually collapses, and even if he is later rescued by Akiba, he still embarks on a path of revenge for destroying the Tono family. She began to imitate her sister, in other words, her cheerfulness and liveliness were all disguises, disguises for revenge.
On the other hand, Jade also knows part of the truth, and the beautiful world in her heart has completely collapsed, in order to avoid being hurt again, she chooses to close herself, treats herself as a puppet, and unconsciously becomes the image of her sister.
These are a pair of pitiful twins, and this is also a pair of sisters who can't be left alone - if left alone, the Tono family will be burned by the fire of revenge, and no one knows how many people will survive in the end.
This is not a joke, "Tsukihime" has five lines and nine regular endings, and only two lines and three endings with sisters as the protagonists are revealed to reveal the truth, one of which ends Amber commits suicide, and one ending Amber commits suicide and loses her memory by Shiki, leaving the Tono family, and only one ending really unties the knot.
As for the other three lines and six endings, Amber's revenge plan is still being implemented. Both endings of the Akiba Line will eventually lead to Shiki's death, Akiba is alone, and if Amber doesn't let go, then Akiba will die soon. The other two lines basically don't depict the entanglement of the Tono family, but Amber's plan is still successful, the four seasons die, and the next one will be Akiba's turn, and maybe in the end, only Shiki will survive.
Of course, no matter how miserable the Tono family is, it has nothing to do with Shinji, but who made him have a good relationship with Shiki and move his compassion again? Maybe he will have to use Shiki's power in the future - for example, for Hercules, who has the "Twelve Trials" and has thirteen lives.
I don't know how the oranges were handled. If it doesn't work, even if you use mental interference, you have to make Amber stop, and Shinji, who is squinting, has a decision. Now it's different from the past, once Shinji was incompetent, but now he has enough ability to do something.
At this moment, a hand brushed his hair lightly and heavily.
When I looked up, it was an orange.
"Sister?"
"Don't be cranky, eat first, I'll look for you after eating. ”
Hearing the deep meaning of Orange's words, Shinji nodded quietly, temporarily pressing down on the plan in his heart.
Because he knows Akiba's character, Shinji rarely implements the rule of "eating without saying anything", except for a simple greeting, he eats silently.
The explanation has already been explained to Akiba in the morning, and maybe Promise will give a faux pasto to compensate before leaving. After all, the Tono family is the manager of the Tokyo metropolitan area, and it is extremely strong in terms of strength and power, although Shinji is not afraid, but he also has to think about the Makiri family, whether he can be an enemy or not an enemy.
Akiba didn't say much, and waited patiently for Shinji's actual actions, showing the bearing that the heir of the Tono family should have.
No, it's no longer the heir, but the current leader, because—
"What, you said that Maki Tono is dead. ”
After lunch, inside Orange's hut, Shinji hears the news that is second only to Tono's early death. But now, no matter how exciting the big news is, Shinji can quickly accept it, because this world line is a special product, and without the intervention of external forces, it is not surprising that anything happens.
Why couldn't Tono Maki die early? This also explains why there was a lot of commotion last night, and only Akiba came forward, because Akiba drove all the clansmen out after succeeding to the head of the family.
Of course, the reason still has to be asked.
"What's going on? It can't have anything to do with you. ”
"That's right. ”
"Clams?"
Shinji just said it casually, but he didn't expect Orange to really admit it.
"When?"
"Shortly after you were taken away by the Second Magician. ”
Shinji began to panic.
"Then you're still living in Tono......'s house? No, I'll take you away now. It's too dangerous here, and even if you can be reincarnated, you can't joke with your life. ”
Seeing Shinji so worried about herself, the corners of Orange's mouth curled slightly, and she waved her hand.
"Calm down, don't get excited, Makihisa's death has something to do with me, but I didn't kill him, he committed suicide. ”
"Suicide? Why?"
"Because he thought about it, figured it out, and didn't want to bring the hatred he caused to the next generation, he committed suicide, in front of Amber. ”
Later, Orange tells the story of what she did at Tono's house.
She entered the Tono family as a doctor, and her contact with Makihisa was naturally very frequent. At first, she just helped Makihisa heal his body and alleviate his condition, but she soon discovered that Makihisa's weakness was not only due to physical reasons, but also to poison, a special chronic poison.
With Orange's means, it was not difficult to find the source of the poison, and it didn't take long for her to lock on to the suspect, and thinking of some information revealed by Shinji, Orange understood the reason.
So Orange quietly detoxifies Makihisa, while secretly observing Amber, and also finds time to find the whereabouts of Tono Shiki, because Shiki is dead, and naturally there is no harvest, so it will drag on for a year.
After a period of observation, Orange determines that Amber is not really completely immersed in hatred, and that she will also struggle, especially in the face of her sister who will not hesitate to torture herself to protect and Akiba, who rescues her from the fire pit.
Confirming this, Orange finally began to act, and the specific operation Orange didn't say much, only knowing that she had won the trust of Makihisa and Akiba, became Akiba's tutor, and was also served by Jade.
With the conditions for contact with several people, Orange began to induce various kinds, on the one hand, let Autumn Leaves and Jade dissolve Amber's anger, and on the other hand, increase the time spent chatting with Makihisa, slowly closing the distance between the two, and waiting for a suitable time.
In this way, a year has passed, and the time that Orange has been waiting for finally comes, and she confesses her intentions to Makihisa (the adapted version), and also tells some of Amber's revenge plans, and finally tells Makihisa that you don't have much time to live, and asks him what he plans to do.
Maki was in a tangle.
