ps: Ah, so tired ̄へ ̄

——————————————————

Fatigue deep into the bone marrow. I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to use my brain to think about what I was doing.

I'm so tired.

Qishi sighed.

Although I was always lacking in motivation from the beginning, this is the first time in my life that I have been tired.

She stood at the fork in the road of choice, choosing whether she wanted to continue holding the sword,

……

……

So, if I had a knife in my hand at the time...... Will you take me too?

“……”

Kenshin sat on the edge of the window and looked out the window, the sky high up, the passers-by and vendors walking on the street in front of the inn, and the ronin samurai with swords attached, he was purely in a daze, his eyes were looking at these things, but his mind was thinking about other things.

It's been a while since Xuedaiba lived in Ogiya, and occasionally Kenshin would remember the question that Yuki asked him, but he couldn't give a clear answer himself.

He is now a murderous executioner.

Comrade Benxin hasn't changed, but Kenshin feels that he is getting farther and farther away from the kind of person he wants to become.

The door was pushed open, and Ba walked in, her work outfit was much more modest than when she first arrived, but Ba never complained, and her good-looking face seemed to have no expression other than "expressionless".

There are no waves in the ancient well.

She is still a young woman, but she gives people an atmosphere comparable to that of an old man.

Full of disobedience.

"I'm going to clean, please go out for a while." Then she "ordered" Kenshin without permission, as if the room belonged to hers.

"I don't feel like I need to clean it."

Kenshin said this, but he still went out honestly to make room for Ba. Before he knew it, he was used to it.

"The proprietress asked me to clean it."

Passing by the desk, Kenshin saw the notepad on the desk, he usually hardly used to write, this kind of thick notebook he would definitely not need.

"That's my diary, please don't peek."

Who's going to see it...... Kenshin was speechless and held his forehead, but he even began to write a diary, this woman is really ready to live permanently.

"Just in case."

Then, as if piercing Kenshin's thoughts, Ba added this sentence.

Kenshin had no choice but to retreat with a bitter face.

Not long after going out, I met Iizuka.

"Yo, what's wrong Kenshin, sullen."

"Mr. Iizuka?"

"Could it be that you quarreled with Abba again?"

Well, hearing the other party make a joke about himself like this, Kenshin almost couldn't suppress his desire to draw his sword again.

"Alright, no kidding." Iizuka put away his always smiling and indecent face, and took out the black letterhead from his arms.

Seeing this, Kenshin's expression also became serious.

"Tonight, I'll still ask you."

……

……

The desperate samurai gave up the idea of continuing to flee for his life, his guards had all died at the hands of that man, and what he was facing now was just a dead end, and he would never be able to escape.

The red-haired executioner walked towards him step by step, without hurrying,

The samurai chose to draw his sword.

Then, just a moment when his finger rested on the hilt of the knife, the Grim Reaper suddenly stood in front of him.

Flying Sword Stream - Dragon's Nest Flash. Bite.

In an instant, the samurai was hacked to death with a random knife, and there was no suspense. Kenshin comprehended the Flying Sword Stream's change of tactics in the midst of the murderous struggle, and what he was now wielding was a murderous blade that deserved to take people's lives.

It's another bloody night.

Jian Xin did not waver, and kept repeating the great task of heavenly punishment.

When he returned to Ogiya that night, he went to the fetching place as usual, and then fetched water and washed his hands.

She stood at the door and looked at Jian Xin, and after a long time, she didn't speak until Jian Xin seemed to be about to wear out the skin on her hands.

"Are you going to kill people like this, endlessly?"

Kenshin didn't answer.

Of course, Ba didn't expect to get Kenshin's answer.

And so the night passed.

"Also, her words and deeds, her way of dealing with people, her living habits, and even the dishes she cooks don't look like a Kyoto person."

Wearing a straw hat, Iizuka reports everything he has investigated about Sedaiba with Katsura Kogoro outside a confectionery shop, and of course, the information obtained from these investigations is just a lie provided to him by Takanomiya.

"Judging from some writing details and reading habits, it doesn't look like she was born as a rough person, and the preliminary inference is that it may be a girl from a Kanto martial arts family."

Iizuka pretended to be absent-mindedly eating a snack, but secretly observed Katsura Kogoro's expression.

"She has no trace of contact with the outside world at all."

After a moment's pause, he added, "I feel that it is unlikely that Xuedaiba is a spy from the outside world. ”

Katsura shook his head

"Don't jump to conclusions, though she's unlikely to be a spy based on your investigation."

"Well, a runaway kitten."

"I want to know her influence on Scarlet Village." He asked

"Impact, I can't say it, but ......" Iizuka looked up at the sky and seemed thoughtful.

"But?"

"According to the person who examined the body, the cut of the fallen sword has recently become dull."

……

……

Ba was alone in Kenshin's room, she was sewing and mending clothes, and Kenshin was still not there tonight.

"I'm sorry to be so late, can I bother?"

Katsura Kogoro actually found her.

"If you're looking for Mr. Scarlet, he's out tonight." Ba just glanced at the man he didn't know in front of him, and continued to do the work in his hand, and replied lightly.

"I know, I'm his commander." Katsura nodded, and then said, "I arranged all his work." ”

Hearing this, Ba was stunned in his hands, and finally willing to look at him directly.

Preparing the tea, the two sat down opposite each other, and Katsura also began to chat with her.

"[Crazy]?"

"When I was young, my friends and I were fortunate enough to be taught by the teacher of Matsushita Murajuku, and we benefited a lot." Katsura talked about the past, "Mr. Yoshida Shoin, who was executed in the Ansei Prison Incident, taught us ......"

In order to break out of this era of madness at the end of the 300 years of the Tokugawa period, I want to establish a new era and achieve great things, and we will probably have to become even more crazy than our enemies.

"Not hesitating to endure madness is the highest justice, and that is probably the driving force behind today's Cheung Chau faction."

When he said this, Gui's expression was a little hideous, and Ba knew that the man in front of him was probably not joking with her.

"And Scarlet Village is the crazy vanguard, taking on the most cruel and demanding tasks."

"So what." She didn't seem to be impressed. "What are you telling me to do this for?"

Katsura smiled again and sighed softly, "Excuse me, that's not what I meant. With that, he leaned over and pushed the door open and left the room.

Ba's gaze followed Katsura, and it wasn't until she was sure that the other party had indeed left, that she walked to the table and sat down, took out a pen and notebook, and began to write something on it.

The next day, Ba started doing chores early.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's stop here today."

The proprietress likes Ba very much, an obedient, well-behaved and diligent girl, every day I see her is smiling, I don't know how much I like it, after the arranged task is done, she will not make things difficult again, she always let her go back early to rest.

"Yes." Ba says goodbye to the proprietress and changes his clothes and returns to his room, where Kenshin is still sleeping.

With a sword in his arms, he fell asleep peacefully.

"Crazy...... Is it? ”

Ba thought of what Gui had said to her.

However, just looking at his sleeping appearance, he is just an uncrowned teenager.

Thinking of this, she picked up the quilt and slowly walked to Kenshin's side to cover him, but before she could do so, Kenshin suddenly woke up his body in his sleep, causing him to quickly pull out his sword and slash at Ba's exposed neck.

From a teenager to Shura.

Feeling the cold touch on her neck, the shock that Xuedaiba finally showed was that her whole body stiffened and she couldn't move because she was so close to death.

"Ahem!" Pushing his chin away, Kenshin retreated to the corner and sat down limply.

Seeing such a sword heart, for some reason, Ba was no longer afraid.

"I'm sorry."

He said

"I used to boast that I would not kill ordinary people, but now I ...... Let's go! Or I'll ...... you."

Kenshin shuddered, and he didn't dare to imagine the scene after his sword was swung down just now.

Bloody rain?

Ba didn't back down, she covered Kenshin with the quilt and slowly stood up.

"I'll live here for the time being, you can't be alone now."

Kenshin grabbed the quilt and held it in the palm of his hand. Ba wouldn't go, which seemed to make him feel relieved, as if he was being helped by something.

"You asked me if I would kill you if you had a sword."

"The answer is, I won't."

Kenshin finally answered.

Ba stood still and looked at Kenshin, waiting for him to finish.

"No matter what happens, I won't kill you." At this time, there was not a single lie in his words.

"Only you, I will never be."

Ba came for revenge, but now she finds herself unable to do it.

After getting such an answer, she couldn't do it
