Rinnosuke is not a god, and he is not sensed by the name of others, and he does not know what is happening in the Eight or Nine Temples. Even if he knew, he wouldn't bother because he had something very important to do.

He is now in a place that no one guessed, and according to normal logic, since Rinnosuke is going to do something big, he should hide in a place that no one knows, not in a place where there are people, and not in a place where there are people, let alone in the Hakurei Shrine where Reimu is present.

"Long time no see." He said to the empty shrine.

The torii gate is still as eye-catching, and the vermilion color always makes people feel warm and yang. As the entrance to Hakurei Shrine, the torii gate has been standing here for many years, witnessing the birth of one after another Hakurei shrine maidens and recording their deaths.

Hakurei Shrine has always been the most lively place in Gensokyo, where most of the banquets are held, and the residents of Gensokyo may not know the Eternal Pavilion hidden in the Lost Bamboo Forest, or they may not have been to the Red Devil Hall on the shore of the Lake of Mist, but they will definitely know where the Hakurei Shrine is.

Because the Great Barrier that protects Gensokyo is called Hakurei Great Enchantment, and because the person who maintains the peace of Gensokyo is called Hakurei Shrine, Hakurei Shrine has been the most important place in Gensokyo since ancient times.

Korinnosuke rarely came here, and most of his meetings with Reimu took place in Korindo, and even if the latter had a rare conscience and invited him to be a guest, he would politely decline. It seems that he is unconsciously resisting this place, not wanting to set foot here.

And now he is here, carrying the residue of Penglai medicine, to find the Hakuri witch who is missing in life.

But it doesn't seem like he's coming at the right time.,No matter how he perceives it.,There's no human breath in the Hakurei Shrine.,I've never liked to go out very much.,Hakurei Reimu, who sits in the corridor all day drinking tea and eating pancakes, actually went out for the first time.,This is really beyond his expectations.。

"Don't look at it, as long as you're here, Reimu won't come back, and now I'm on the stake at Hakurei Shrine."

There is no one at Hakurei Shrine, but there are ghosts.

A burst of wine wafted in, and Ibuki Suika, dressed in a Hakurei shrine maiden costume, appeared in the hallway, lying on her side, drinking the sake from her flask, and said to Rinnosuke vaguely.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Zhisuke said in a deep voice, and his left hand couldn't help but press on the clouds.

Seeing this, Cui Xiang waved her hand dissatisfiedly, frowned and said, "You don't even want to deal with me." ”

Rinnosuke shook his head, let go of his hand, and said, "Just in case, after all, you're on her side." ”

"Don't worry, for the sake of so many years of love, I won't interfere much in the matter between you. Really, whether it's you or purple, can't the two of you just order? It's so boring to have so many twists and turns. ”

Cui Xiang took a sip of wine fiercely, and said angrily and helplessly. As a ghost clan, she doesn't like those conspiracies the most, in her opinion, instead of digging out her mind to calculate others, it is better to block the door directly, and the fist speaks.

"Although I appreciate your neutrality, I still have to say that I am not him, not now, not in the past, and not in the future." Rinnosuke frowned, very disgusted by the long-term relationship, and bluntly refuted it.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward again, and Suika didn't immediately answer Rinnosuke's words, but looked at him seriously, as if she wanted to see him through. After a while, she scratched her hair with a headache, took a sip of wine, and relieved the discomfort in her heart, before she said with a tangled face: "I really don't know if Bayi Yonglin did it on purpose, you who have recovered from the fragmented state, only the appearance is still the same as in the past, and in other aspects, you can't find the shadow of the past at all." ”

"I think you're mistaken, I'm Rinnosuke, not Yakumo, maybe my origin has something to do with him, but my ability is not the power of the dream realm, but the ability to know the name and purpose of the item." Rinnosuke shook his head and talked about his own abilities.

"I think you know that ability is the embodiment of the essence of an individual, as long as it is not the same person, there will be no exact same ability. Even between parents and children, brothers and sisters, the abilities may be similar, but they will never be the same. My abilities are different from Yakumo's, which means that we are not one person, I am an independent individual. ”

This matter was also something that Yakumo Zi didn't expect, so he didn't take any precautions against this. Therefore, at the very beginning, Rinnosuke used his own ability to judge his own attributes, knowing that he was just an incomplete life form born from the dregs of Yakumo.

One can imagine how big the impact of this kind was on the new him, and for many years after that, he wore the magic eye to kill, suppressing his abilities, not wanting to see the disgusting word "residue".

But this is always self-deception.

He didn't have Yakumo's memory, and he didn't want Yakumo's memory, but the haunting past was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, haunting him to death, and no matter how much he resisted, he couldn't get rid of it.

Flandoro likes him, Reimu and Marisa have a natural crush on him, and the Yakumo family calls him by the name of closeness.

It is true that they are all excellent, and he was once immersed in this beautiful relationship.

But every time he washed up, took off his glasses and looked in the mirror, he would see his faded hair, faded pupils, and that nasty word would appear again, stinging his heart.

Yes, they are all very good people, but none of these relationships belong to him, he is Rinnosuke, not Yakumo's shadow, let alone Yakumo's replacement.

He's going to cut off the past!

He wants to be himself!

He didn't want to be a sacrifice!

"If you came here, you should have known about Yakumo's plan."

Rinnosuke's tone gradually became cold, and his words were like knives, pointing directly at Suika's heart.

"She deliberately brought the Eight Nine Temple to this world, attracting the attention of most people in Gensokyo, and it was to take this opportunity to implement the plan of Yakumo's resurrection. And I, as his remains, am the only sacrifice in this feast where everyone is happy. ”

I beg your pardon for not being able to accept such a thing.

"Purple won't hurt you." Suika tried to argue.

"Are you really sure?" Rinnosuke asked rhetorically.

For a moment, Cui Xiang thought of the anomaly twenty-one years ago. Yakumo, Hakurei Shrine Maiden, and Lisa the Misty Rain Demon are all the protagonists of that mutation, and even Kazami Yuka and Yayi Yongrin, who have always cared about the world, have intervened in it.

But what is puzzling, and even imaginative, is that Yakumo Zi has never made a move from beginning to end, except for the last time to take Rinnosuke from the Eternal Pavilion, she has not even shown her face.

This is obviously unreasonable, and coupled with the precedent of the first lunar war, people can't help but speculate in the darkest directions.

Even Cuixiang can't make any guarantees in this matter.

So she can only be silent, the more silent she is, the more depressed she feels, and the more depressed she is, the more she needs to borrow alcohol to kill her sorrows. The small flask was filled with wine comparable to the entire Lake of Mist, and Suzuka kept drinking the wine, but it felt even more bitter than when he was face to face with Yakumo Purple before.

"Tsk-"

She was speechless, not knowing if it was because of the bad drink, or because of those annoying things. Finally, she couldn't stand the unpalatable smell of wine anymore, the atomization disappeared, and the fog came back again, no longer holding the wine jug, but holding Reimu's pancake tea and tasting it in a big gulp.

"For the sake of these things you sent, I'll tell you one more thing, you made another mistake, the arrival of the Eight Nine Temple is not such a simple thing, there are too many involved, I am inconvenient to say. You're still too young. ”

Rin Nosuke nodded at Suika's kind persuasion, but he was not ready to turn back, from the moment he picked up the Heavenly Cloud, he was no longer able to turn back.

Looking at his departing back, Cuixiang revealed regret.

"Although you keep saying that you want to cut off the past, the weapon you are holding is the same as Yakumo, and the weapon you are holding is the same as Yakumo, and you are holding the remnants of Penglai medicine to save Reimu Marisa, who has a great connection with Yakumo, and even if you don't want to deceive yourself, this is exactly the same as Yakumo in the past. Do you really understand who is stuck in the past and unwilling to move forward? Who is too bound by the past? ”

Suika is a friend of Yakumo Murasaki, and she knows very well how terrible the name of the monster sage is, and she can stand out in the past when the demons were everywhere, and even kill most of the opposition in the Moon War, Yakumo Murasaki is definitely not comparable to Rinnosuke, who has been born for more than 20 years.

He had no chance of winning, not even one in 10,000.

Rinnosuke doesn't have the ability to read minds, and he is walking down from Hakurei Shrine step by step, so he naturally doesn't know what Cuixiang thinks. But he felt uneasy, and he was not as confident as before.

"It's understandable that she can't find Marisa, after all, she was called by Kaguya to make a movie, but it's too suspicious to find Reimu, and the two things together don't seem like a coincidence at all. Yakumo, what exactly are you thinking? ”

He held the sky in his hand, carefully erasing his breath and footprints, but his heart was unusually confused, so that his other hand couldn't help but clench the bottle containing the residue of Penglai medicine.

In his opinion, the treatment of Reimu and Marisa is a good and harmless thing for Yakumo Murasaki, everyone likes them so much, and they can get rid of the shackles of lifespan, which will only make everyone happy and make Gensokyo more stable.

But he was stopped, and his medicine wasn't delivered to either Reimu or Marisa. If this kind of thing is known to the girls who like Reimu and Marisa, their anger may not even be able to withstand Yakumo.

It didn't make sense, and it made him extremely incomprehensible.

Originally, he thought that he had looked at Yakumo Purple enough and knew enough about the monster sage, but it was only now that he realized that what he knew was only the surface of Yakumo Purple, and what she was thinking in her heart, in fact, he never knew.

"But I'm still going to win."

As if to hypnotize himself, he said seriously, and the confusion in his eyes was completely disappeared by the sharp sword qi of Tiancong Yun.
