"What?"

Koto asked stunned.

?“ I said, I'll go too. ”

Origami withdrew his gaze from staring at Erye, and said unhurriedly.

?“ Ahh............h

Kotori suddenly didn't know how to answer.

Of course, Kotori wouldn't believe that Origami wanted to escort Futaba back together. She went with her mostly to monitor and prevent Shido from derailment.

But if you think about it...... Origami is the real lonely widow. Compared to the elf of the two leaves, the origami of the AST team members is simply in need of protection. (Have you ever thought about protecting their morality...... is the most ordinary one =.=)

So in fact, it is the most reasonable choice to let Shidao send origami back?

For a moment, Kotori couldn't think of any reason for Shido to refuse the origami ..........

"That......... Shidao, you send Kite and Niye back. It's not early, and it's really not safe for them to go back on their own. ”

…………………………

Forty minutes had passed since they walked out of the door of Wuhe's house, and there had been silence between the three of them. No one wants to break the silence of the cool breeze of a summer night.

Futaba walked a little bit ahead, while origami and Shido walked side by side in the back.

After determining the location where Futaba and Origami lived, the three of them decided to send Futaba back, who lived in the Mikuya house closer to the Gokawa family, first, and then Shidao took the origami around to a single apartment farther away.

Originally, Erye wanted to go back by himself.,But Shidao was afraid that if he didn't complete the task assigned by the piano, he would be scolded again.,And the origami unexpectedly didn't have an objection.,The two still accompanied Erye around this part of the road.。

"That's, that's ......... Actually, it's already very close, so I'll just go by myself, so Mr. Shidao should hurry up and send Miss Ichi back. Otherwise, it's going to be late. ”

Walked to the corner of a park about ten minutes' walk from the Miku House, and Erye suddenly turned around and said to the two people behind him.

?“ May I...? But, but .......... ”

I didn't see Erye walk into the house, and Shidao was still a little worried.

"It's almost there, so let's say goodbye here."

Erye waved at the two, but when she wanted to turn around and leave, she was suddenly stopped.

"Wait...!"

The person who called the second leaf was the origami she felt should talk to herself the least.。

"Is there anything else?"

“…… Come with me. ”

Saying that, he pulled the two leaves and walked to the park.,Leaving the unknown situation of Shidao to stay where he was.。

………………

"Are you really the Inquisitor?"

Under a bright street lamp in a dimly lit park, Origami asked in a serious and unusual tone.

"Huh......?" Inquisitor "What is it?"

Futaba asked in confusion.

“……… Then let's ask, were you an elf at that time?"

Origami thought about it for a while, and then asked in a different way.

"......... at that time? Do you mean yesterday?"

Erye said in an uncertain tone.

“………”

Hearing Erye say something that was almost equivalent to an acknowledgment, Origami's eyes instantly sharpened.

"That......... I'm asking you a question, five years ago......"

"Five years ago?"

Origami thought back to the event she didn't want to remember, but didn't want to forget.

"Five years ago...... The fire in Tiangong City, the fire caused by the "Flame Demon...... Were you there when it happened?"

Although he knew that the "Inquisitor" was not the elf at that time, Origami still tried to overlap the face of the girl in front of him with the vague figure in his memory.

The other party and the "Fire Demon" ...... That is, the relationship between Gokawa Koto seems to be good, so there is no guarantee whether she ever appeared in that place at that time.

"Five years ago? Well...... I guess it's not there, after all, I've never seen a real fire since I was born. ”

Although I don't know why the other party suddenly asked about this, but Erye still said honestly.

?“ ..........That's it. ”

Origami seems to be a little disappointed.

"That...... Can I ask one thing? What did you mean by "Firedemons" and "Inquisitors"?"

Seeing that Origami didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to speak, Futaba asked.

Futaba felt that if she didn't understand what these titles meant, she couldn't understand what origami was talking about.

"Why should I answer your question?"

Origami said expressionlessly.

“QAQ”

Futaba felt that his young mind had been greatly damaged.

Obviously, she has answered so many questions about origami, and origami actually treated her like this. (I don't know if it can be counted as an answer?......)

Are you hated?

?“ …………”

Origami, who had finished asking everything he wanted to ask, turned around and left behind the two leaves who showed an expression of almost crying in place.。

"Wait, wait!"

Erye, who was afraid of the dark, didn't care if the other party hated him, so he hurriedly chased after him. She said she didn't want to be alone in this dark park.

Futaba's physical fitness is very poor, especially in the case of constricting her spiritual power in order not to be kicked back to the neighborhood, it took her a while to catch up with Origami.

But when Erye caught up with Origami,,Only to find that even if he was chasing her behind,Origami didn't have the slightest intention of slowing down and waiting for himself or speeding up.。 It's just like a robot repeating the action of lifting and lowering at the same rate.

For a moment, Erye suddenly felt that such a person was even weirder than those demons hiding in the dark.

"Miss Kite, why did you suddenly ask me that kind of question? What happened to the fire five years ago?"

Futaba asked with a strong curiosity about origami, even though she felt that the probability that the other party wouldn't answer her was quite high.

?“ …………………”

Origami really ignored Futaba and continued his pace in silence.

?“ Miss Kite, just tell me. What happened to the fire five years ago? And what exactly are "Firedemons" and "Inquisitors"?"

Erye, who was badly taught by the United States, habitually took out a coquettish offensive no matter who he was told.,But this time the object is a kite origami.,Obviously, this trick doesn't work.。

“……………”

Origami still walks as if the two leaves do not exist.

?“ Miss Kite, Na, Miss Kite~?"

“……………”

Finally the origami that was impatiently quarreled by the second leaf turned around.,And then glared at the second leaf with an expressionless but very scary face.。

?“ Not...... Tell me, Miss Kite?"

Feeling that the other party seemed to be very angry, the second leaf couldn't help but shrink. But she couldn't resist her strong curiosity, so she asked relentlessly.

"...... five years ago"

As if to keep Futaba shut up, Origami spoke......

"Five years ago, in a fire, an elf destroyed both my parents and my home. I'm going to find that elf and tear it to pieces............ "Fire Demon" and "Inquisitor" are the code names of elves, and the elf who caused the fire five years ago is "Fire Demon", and as for "Inquisitor", .......... ”

In the end,Origami looked at Futaba intently,The identity of the "judge" is about to come out.。

"Uh................"

Futaba was stunned, and then silently closed his mouth.

“……………”

After confirming that the noisy guy was quiet, Origami turned around and continued in the direction of the exit of the park.

"That, that... Miss Kite...... Is the elf who killed your parents the "Fire Demon"?"

The second leaf can be 100% certain.,The reason for such a strange character as origami is definitely related to this matter.。 And in order to make up for the sad things that reminded her of the past, Futaba wanted to try to see if she could do something for origami in this matter.

If this can help Kite, can she also atone for the mistakes she has committed, even a little bit of sin.

She had done something that had taken someone's life, which meant that she had taken the life of someone who was important to that person from someone who cherished them.

Futaba doesn't know what it feels like to lose someone she cherishes, she just knows that it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it ......hurts.

No longer crazy、After calming down and looking at all this,Erye realized that his sins could never be atoned for.。 Even if she tries to create happiness for more people, as Jean says, the mistakes she makes will never be balanced.

But if she doesn't do anything from now on, she'll always be just a sinner stuck with the past.

?“ ………………”

However, regardless of Futaba's determination, origami no longer responds to her questions.

In Origami's view, elves like "Inquisitor" and "Nightmare" are bastards who don't care about other people's lives, just like the elf who killed her parents five years ago.

She didn't want to have anything to do with these people other than fighting.

Futaba realized that origami really didn't seem to want to pay attention to himself.,So it's no longer boring entanglement.。

Futaba just followed the distance two steps behind Origami.,Back to the entrance where they first entered the park.。

………………………

Shido was very worried from the beginning when Futaba was pulled into the park by origami. With Origami's temper,Maybe I'll really find an opportunity to shoot the two leaves in the head.。 And then the two leaves are not to mention ................

If they do fight, something might really happen before they get ............there.

Origami is one of the few Shidao, ordinary (?) of friends of the opposite sex. If Erye really did something to her, he thought, it would be difficult for him to forgive Erye.

Shido doesn't want to hate Futaba. Futaba is a good child, but she needs more trust in others.

Shidao really wants to save (to) the second leaf from the bottom of his heart. But it's the same as the situation at that time of Kurumi. If Kurumi really made a move on Shika at that time, Shidao would definitely not forgive Kurumi.

Just when Shido was hesitating to go in and see the situation, he happened to see origami and Futaba coming out of the dark park one after the other.

?“ You're done, aren't you?"

Shidao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I don't know what they did, but it's good that nothing happened.

"Hmm."

Origami, who has never said much, replied simply.

"Then Erye, we'll send you here. Be careful on the way after that, remember to walk where there are street lights, and ........."

"Okay, okay, I got it!"

Erye interrupted Shidao Mother's possession-like admonition, and said in an energetic voice.

?“ See you another day~"

Futaba waved his hand at the two of them, and then prepared to run towards Mikuyaku.

But at this time, Erye suddenly remembered something, so he ran back nervously.

"Shidao, Shidao, come over your ears."

Erye said to Shidao with a grin.

"Huh?"

Although looking at Futaba's mischievous smile made Shido have a bad premonition, he still leaned his ear over.

"Please come back to this park after sending Miss Kite home, I'll wait for you!"

Futaba said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Eh......!

…………………

…………………

Alas~ Let the author and I am here to answer a question that everyone is curious about.

That's the question of whether the little two leaves are married or lily!

Actually, originally... Author: I'm really going to write about lilies (covering my face.

Then I thought about it later, and getting married is actually not bad.

However, so far I haven't really decided how to write it. Because of the author, I've always looked at the mood to determine the plot ~XD

So it's ~ before it's really 100% sure, both sides are possible~.

The only thing that is certain is ...... Author: I don't write about the back/palace..., my sister hates that thing.

Author: When I was writing a novel, I always moved my feet temporarily. This feeling is like real life, you never know what will happen in the next second, the author I just like this feeling to write~

It can also be said that although the author is currently straight, I have a stable boyfriend. But maybe in a few years, the author and I will be bent by whom, who is not ~? XD (of course this does not mean that the author I am bent =.= this is important!)

(It's not coming out of the closet!)
