As time moves forward, irritating things tend to gather in front of them, and they rarely seem to consult you, falling from the sky and smashing them in the face, just to be caught off guard by what to teach you.

This is the situation that Nanachi is facing, and she sits cross-legged on the bow of Nanami Akashi, holding a sword in her arms and a hat hanging from the hilt of her sword.

After saying that she hadn't seen her for a long time, she still boarded the boat of the man who fell silent, this is some kind of tacit understanding, as the two people connected by Asakura Hayato's short life - daughter, best friend, their lives may be difficult at the moment, but in addition to the difficulties, the two understand a truth.

Now that we've met, let's get to know.

The cause and effect of Hayato's death, which had been entangled for ten years and almost diluted by time, had become vivid again because of their chance encounter, and now it was indeed time to cut it off.

'When I was worried about the Eagle Palace, I jumped out of such a big trouble. Nanami felt his heart dissolved in water, and the peace was incredible. She looked back at the man again, familiar but unfamiliar.

The adult man's face has changed very little, even if eleven years have passed, Nanami Akashi is still the same as she remembered when she was a child, and the word stubbornness is almost engraved on her angular face.

However, the appearance has not changed much, but the temperament has been turned upside down.

The former Nanami Akashi was awe-inspiring and awe-inspiring. And now, I have to say that Qishi feels that she can't see through him, this man's body seems to be covered with a layer of fog, and she squints and stares for a long time not knowing his thoughts.

'Hey, are you still looking for change?' ’

Qishi wanted to ask directly, but she closed her mouth only half open, grinned softly, shook her hat and turned her head, took off her straw sandals and dripped.

The river water in this era is really clean and crystal clear.

At the same time that Nanami turned his head to look at Nanami, Nanami was naturally observing Nanami, her changes can be said to be earth-shattering, from a little girl to a ronin with a knife, Nanami Akashi couldn't imagine it before they really met.

The daughter of the scholar family will be what she looks like in front of her now.

"I'm all because I'm like this."

The other party's gaze was so piercing that even if it was facing away, Nanami could feel that Nanami Akashi was staring at him.

"Uncle Nanami...... "Let's call Uncle a few more times, Nanami doesn't care: "I want to cross the river, where are you taking me?"

Of course, it doesn't matter where you go.

"Go to my house, I want to talk to you about something."

"About my father?"

Ask while knowing the answer.

"yes, about Falato."

"Okay."

Nanami stopped talking, and soon she and Nanami Akashi stopped at a hut by the Khao River, locked the boat to the creaking ferry, and met the door.

"My home."

"You're settled?" It's not easy to get a wandering man to settle down.

"Yes."

He led the way, and as he was about to open the door, he looked back at Nanami, who was jumping ashore from the boat with a knife in her hand, and looked at the strangely constructed room with interest, and said something like 'not too far' with unknown meaning as she watched her mouth.

"Your father, Falto, didn't kill him."

“……”

'Yes, you didn't kill you. Qishi clenched his scabbard, and sometimes the words of some people could provoke the anger of others.

But those greedy ronins were brought by you, blindly pursuing their own power, and finally chose the wrong guy to become a companion, and finally caused bad results.

Isn't this the responsibility of you, Akashi Nanami?

"When I learned of his death, I regretted it very much."

When Qishi was thinking about whether to simply marry this man here from a physical level, and let him meet with his father in the underground brothers to explain it in person, the door was opened from the inside, and there was a woman standing behind the door, tall, who looked like she was already one meter seven, and she looked ordinary, not a beautiful woman, it was easy to ignore at first glance, if it weren't for the eye-catching big man, it was no different from the aunts and aunts around the village where she lived as a child.

"My inner son."

Nanami Akashi pointed at the woman and said something that Nanami didn't expect.

"As you can see, I have gone into seclusion, and I have taken a wife, and I have children, and I will no longer be in the affairs of the world."

It was this sentence that made the knife that was about to be unsheathed by Qishi retracted.

"My old lord's daughter, prepare a meal."

"Okay, you're lucky today." The tall woman was very humble, she tidied up her husband's clothes slightly, then bowed slightly to Nanami and retreated to the kitchen, and then Nanami took Nanami to the living room, where he introduced the home to his "niece".

"Later, I worked in the fishing grounds, and I also took some mercenary work, and when I earned money, I built such a house, and I fished around here and carried people across the river by the way, and my life was very comfortable."

Let Nanami sit down, the man was sitting across from her, and at the same time took out a short knife from his arms, which looked a little old, and it was engraved with the family crest of the Asakura family, which should have been left behind when he was still a retainer.

I took out this knife, not to deal with Qishi.

"Ever since Falato's death, I've seen his shadow darken in my mind every day I pass."

Nanami Akashi, as an elder, bowed his head deeply in front of Nanami.

"Actually, it's useless to say more, I've lived for half a lifetime, and I have experienced the ups and downs of the world, and when I meet you today, I vaguely feel that God is giving me a chance to choose, heh." He made a request to the swordsman girl: "Excuse me, no matter what, the old master died because of me, even if you are not a qualified samurai, there is no reason to live, you are the last descendant of the Asakura family, and it is most suitable for you to be the wrong person." ”

It seems that he is living a tormented life.

"Wrong ......" Qishi has never missed it for others, one is because she is a woman in this life, and the other is that she herself hates the matter of caesarean section, and she always feels that she is too stupid, and she can't experience any dignity at all, what is the glory of a samurai.

But she herself is superficial, but in such troubled times, caesarean section or something......

"Are you trying to escape? Uncle Nanami. ”

The words came from the heart, and Qishi sincerely felt the pathetic of this man.

"I'm afraid there's no better way to escape to hell now."

Pick up the dagger and weigh it in your hand.

"The Asakura family is gone, and since my father died, it is said that the rule that a woman cannot inherit this family is also a rule set by the elders." Qishi forcibly moved out of the "woman" set to talk about things.

"You are living so well, you have a house, a wife, and you will have children soon."

As the pillar of the family, today's Nanami Akashi has long been no vassal of the Asakura family, his surname is Nanami.

"If you commit suicide by caesarean section here, I can't explain it to your wife, and the end result is that you, as an uncle, not only do not leave me any benefit, but continue to cause trouble for me repeatedly."

Throwing the knife out of the window, this thing that had witnessed the rise and fall of at least one family was sunk to the bottom of the river by Nanami.

"If Uncle Nanami, you really feel guilty about me."

Soji Okita said a long time ago that the seven truths are unfavorable, and she is a guy who is easy to fall in front of "favors" no matter how vicious she is.

"Just help me deal with a guy, I've been in a lot of trouble lately."

As if by magic, she extended an invitation to the man.
