Chapter 11: What a snowfall

Rustling.

On the streets of the world, two white-haired girls in red and blue walked side by side. The shallow snow leaves two lines of footprints on the stone slabs, one light and finely broken, and the other heavy and sparse.

Boom –

One after the other, it was the sound of footsteps stopping.

"Sister Hong? Rinkicho is just ahead. ”

"Wait a minute, Huiyin...... You go first. I'll be there right away. ”

Mei Hong turned around and ran away with a click. Huiyin hesitated, but chose to deal with the monster incident first. It's a sign of respect for his partner and a sign of trust in her.

Before leaving, she looked towards the street where Mei Hong had turned, and saw something on the ground in the distance reflecting slightly. Vaguely, she felt like a dinner knife.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”==β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Mikoto?"

"Bai Ze."

Reimu had arrived, and she was stepping out of the door of Zhong Shou's house. Huiyin nodded to her.

"What's going on here?"

Huiyin didn't ask Reimu, but the young couple of the Zhong Shou family. From their respectful words, Hui Yin learned that the correspondent of the self-police force was still unconscious. She turned to look at Reimu.

"-Youkai."

Reimu replied briefly. She didn't say much because she didn't know much more. As for other trivial matters, she has no friendship with the teachers of the temple house, so she will not mention them.

At this time, Hongmaru's weak voice joined in.

"People...... It's gone. Big Brother and Big Sister...... All of a sudden, they were gone. ”

"What? Red pills, come, take it easy, and speak slowly. ”

Huiyin gently walked to Hongmaru's side and looked at Hongmaru's parents, who did not object. Then Huiyin pulled over the chair and gently wrapped her arms around Hongmaru's shoulders.

Red Pill starts from being interested in Yuning's bookstall in the morning, to being called home by his mother, and finally calling him for help.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The big sister is gone. I wanted to ask the big brother, however, I couldn't find him. …… Teacher, that's it. ”

Huiyin touched Hongmaru's head as a sign of comfort.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sakiya. ”

Reimu said. At some point, she took Youning's handwritten signboard in her hand, turned it over, and tore off a copy of the Bo Li Ling Talisman from the back, which was obviously pirated.

"Who's that?"

"The vampire's maid."

Huiyin was stunned, and hurriedly walked to Anping, who was still unconscious. She moved Anping slightly, approached the stove, and lifted Anping's neckline.

"Hoo ......"

Huiyin breathed a sigh of relief. Reimu cast an inexplicable gaze.

"That's a vampire's maid, not a vampire...... She doesn't attack anyone. Well, probably. ”

"Ah...... Be. I'm confused, I'm sorry. ”

"You don't need to apologize to me......"

Reimu looked out the door.

"Then, she and Youning are ...... together"

"Hey, your friend is here."

Reimu opened the door, and a cold wind mixed with snow particles poured in. She tucked the scarf around her neck slightly.

"Sister Red!"

"Look, that's Sakuya."

Reimu closed her eyes slightly, as if she had something on her mind.

- Mei Hong walked over slowly, and on her back was a girl with short silver hair. A layer of snow fell on the girl's body, and the girl's red eyebrows and shoulders were also faintly white.

"Sister Hong, come here!"

Sakiya, who was also unconscious, was gently placed on the other side of the stove, and Huiyin carefully touched her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. Mei Hong stood at the door with a frown, patting the snow on her body.

"Where's Youning? Meihong, have you seen him? ”

"Nope. When I picked up the throwing knife, I saw her fall to the ground. There are no traces of a fight. I've already wiped the snow off her body. - This is really ...... weather."

Mei Hong complained unhappily. She wasn't afraid of the cold, but she hated the way the snow looked. On the other side, Huiyin couldn't wake up Sakuya, and she looked up at Reimu.

"Shrine Maiden...... Do you have what it takes to wake her up? ”

"Here we are."

"What?"

Reimu brushed aside Mei Hong and walked out. She looked at the sky.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Bloodsucker. ”

"Sakuya !!"

A young but fierce voice exploded over the streets.

"Here it is."

Reimu sighed.

Red streamers swept into the room with the wind and snow. Zhong Shou's family has been invited into the back room by Huiyin, and there are only two silver-haired girls here in addition to the sick number.

and, the scarlet that has just landed.

That's the master of the Red Devil Pavilion who operates fate, the most powerful vampire in Gensokyo, Remilia Scarlett!

Flash!

Huiyin involuntarily withdrew, and Sakuya's side was occupied by Remilia.

"You are!"

"Sakiya!"

Remilia held up the back of Sakiya's head.

"What did you guys do with Sakiyaβ€”β€”!!!"

Waves of air! The furniture in the room rattled!

Remilia bared her scarlet pupils and tiny fangs to Huiyin. Huiyin choked. Mei Hong instantly stopped in front of her.

Huiyin remembered. This is the culprit of the Red Mist Mutation - she watched the scene that was about to destroy the world but could not do anything about it, the Red Mist Mutation.

Mei Hong and Remilia looked at each other. Huiyin wanted to say something, but the atmosphere was so tense that she didn't say anything out of caution.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

"Stop."

Then, stopped.

It's a reimu who is a shrine maiden.

Remilia turned her head away, carefully checking Sakiya's condition. Huiyin also breathed a sigh of relief and began to talk about the situation that she had mastered.

"So, the shop where Saki went to buy books, is the owner called Yuning?"

Remilia listened and said suddenly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Be. ”

Huiyin seemed a little worried, and she looked at Reimu.

Reimu just listened, quietly, without saying a word.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sakiya. ”

Sakiya still hasn't woken up.

Remilia gently brushed off Sakiya's collar, licked the corner of her lips, and then gently leaned over the white neck.

After a few breaths, her lips left Sakiya's skin, and the tip of her tiny tongue gently licked against the reddish patch. Sakiya shuddered slightly.

"Sakiya!"

The silver-haired girl slowly opened her eyes. There was a lot of confusion there.

"Sakiya, Sakiya!"

Her gaze focused on the face of the voice's owner.

"My name is Sakuya," she said. ”

Remilia was stunned.

Yes, the girl who came out of the rift in time was not originally called Sakuya. That was the gift she received as the head maid of the Red Devil Pavilion by following the Red Devil, and it was also the proof of her new life.

"My name is ......"

This time, the silver-haired girl was stunned.

That's really forgotten. When did the past name be abandoned? It's been so long, too long that I really forgot.

The red demon was speechless. Then, a hand gently touched her face.

"Sakiya! Do you remember?! ”

"I ...... It's not called Sakuya. …… Just call me Sakuya. ”

Sakiya shook her head and looked at her hand again. It's as if I'm asking about my body, how much more, I haven't forgotten.

Outside the door, the snow was falling heavily.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”==β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Reimu walked out suddenly.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Reimuβ€”and the slender figure that had come from the wind and snow.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

"Youning ......"

- "Boom! ”

The brilliance of red and colorful collision!

"Miko Maiden! Don't stop me! ”

Angry Remilia!

Standing in front of Remilia was an enchantment. An enchantment under the cloth of that apparently replica Hiroling rune.

Yu-Ning looked at Remilia, and then at Sakuya, who was lying quietly in the room. He took a step back with a solemn face, bowed his head, and said a word.

"I'm sorry."

Then, Reimu also said a word.

"Youning called me."

Remilia looked at Reimu, gritted her teeth, and landed on the ground. Reimu retracted the barrier, and the snow over there was swept into the door by the wind.

"Huiyin, are you cold? This snow is also ......."

Mei Hong said over there, and Youning walked past Remilia and entered the house.

"Huh? Is there no snow on you? ”

"Right now, it's the only one that's snowing around here."

This sentence attracted everyone's attention.

Youning frowned and looked at the sky.

"Hmph. Snow? ”

By his side, Mei Hong strode over.

"Get out of the way."

Standing on the empty and deserted street, Meihong reached out to catch a snowflake and smiled contemptuously.

"Whew-boom!"

Flame!

The flames that rose out of thin air surrounded Mei Hong's body, like waving phoenix wings!

Like a volcanic eruption! The snow on the entire street was swept away!

A girl named Fujiwara Meihong is such an existence. This is Fujiwara Sister Red, enough to be on a par with youkai!

- It's just that the snow hasn't burned out.

Under that kind of flame, of course, the transformation is dissolved. But the snowflakes were still falling, and the silver that had been burned away did not turn into water or ice, and soon a plain color accumulated on the ground.

Youning walked out. Mei Hong turned her face away in embarrassment, but Youning walked straight to a certain house.

The door was locked.

Youning put his hand on the door lock, and between his fingers, a streamer leaked out smoothly.

Click, the lock opened.

The light in Youning's palm receded, and he pushed the door, and there was a dull crashing sound from inside the door. Blocked by something.

"I'll come."

Mei Hong said.

Youning didn't answer, he just frowned, sank his shoulders, turned sideways, twisted his ankles, and then, suddenly, the force was transmitted and superimposed layer by step.

One hit!

There was a bang, and the door opened.

"Shhhh

Youning gritted her teeth.

- Snow!

The house was full of snow! An almost visible chill rolls out of it!

Youning took a step back and read as if talking to herself.

"It's snowing."

He took out a small notebook from his bosom, wrote something on it, and walked in.

"Brother Cheng - hey, I've heard that you've killed monsters, don't be so bad."

The door number on the outside of the house indicates the identity of the owner of the room. The sign reads: Ito.

- Huiyin and Reimu standing in front of Ito's house.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ So? ”

"Ito is an outsider. Tamura is an outsider. As you say, Sakiya is also the words of outsiders......"

Hui Yin said this, looking at the snow in the house.

"I'll get rid of this matter first."

Huiyin closed her eyes.

There is an inexplicable aura around her, and there is a coexistence of vicissitudes and fresh tastes. That's not time β€” it's not time. That's history.

On both sides of Huiyin's head, white horns glowing with green faintly appeared.

Huiyin's Bai Ze form - yes, eat the form of history.

Mei Hong stuck one hand in her pants pocket, and the fingers of the other hand played with the dancing flames. She watched as Hui Yin had transformed countless times, and then, suddenly, her eyes widened.

"Huiyin!"

The voice has not fallen!

"Poof, cough-"

Huiyin instantly changed back to her original appearance! As she coughed, a trace of blood flowed down the corners of her mouth!

"Huiyin! You okay! ”

Facing Mei Hong's concern, Huiyin just waved her hand weakly, and opened her mouth without worrying about panting, with lingering palpitations.

"Good...... Horrible ......"

Mei Hong was stunned for a moment.

She hugged Huiyin's dejected body, and then looked into the room along Huiyin's gaze.

- Ito and Tamura Yasuhei, they are all outsiders.

With Sakuya's power, it's hard to believe that she'll be completely defeated at the hands of any youkai. If there's one thing in common, it's that she's an outsider.

And when it comes to outsiders, here, there is another.

Reimu beside them seemed to have something in mind.

"Youning, are there any monsters in there?"

She shouted into the room.

Didn't wait for an answer. Reimu's pupils contracted slightly.

She clutched a talisman in her hand and walked through the door of Ito's house.

Over there, Youning stood by the window, motionless. Hearing the voice, he turned his head.

"Youning. Are you okay? It's okay. It was cold in the house, so I went out first. ”

Youning was silent. He slowly took off his glasses and hung them in his breast pocket.

Youning hugged her arms, and her eyes were full of indifference.

He said, "Who are you?" ”
