After Miyazawa endured a vomit that day, the knot in his heart gradually opened, often in a trance can not distinguish between the two people, sometimes even feel that Oda is not dead, he is more caring for Sakurayuki, and the experience and skills of life are passed on to her, Sakurayuki is very fast.

After Kurokawa Shikibu inspected Sakurayuki that day, he also understood that it was a difficult process for her to take this step - although he didn't think about it in his mouth, Oda's affairs always lingered in his mind and unconsciously affected his every decision - he always reminded himself: take your time, don't rush her!

Although he didn't want to admit it, Oda was forced by him to go crazy and then kill himself, and he was afraid that Sakurayuki would repeat Oda's mistakes.

On this day, Kurokawa Shikibu took Sakurayuki out of school for the first time, and Miyazawa Shinobu accompanied him.

Sakurayuki felt very strange and asked Miyazawa, "Why did you let me come out?" ”

"You don't care about anything else, just relax and just let it be."

Sakurayuki didn't ask anymore and just followed Kurokawa Shikibu's side.

Walking more than 20 miles, arriving at the bazaar, the bazaar is lively and prosperous, the three of them shuttle in the flow of people, a hundred and ten kinds of sounds are mixed, endlessly, Sakura Xue has not seen such a scene for more than a month, and the mood has become a little happy.

As he walked, Kurokawa Shikibu glanced at Miyazawa Shinobu Shinobu, and Miyazawa immediately understood and left for a while.

"Nowadays, people's hearts are sinister, the world is complicated, and there are some things that you can't see in school." Kurokawa Shikibu said, "You have to have a good eye for what you do, and you have to be aware of your surroundings at all times, to spot potential hidden dangers, or to find favorable conditions." ”

Sakurayuki listened and looked around.

"For example...... Look at the shop selling Chinese silk on the left, the man has an unusual look and a strange demeanor......"

Sakura Xue looked over, it turned out that the person was stealing and was about to leave, but Kurokawa Shikibu grabbed her and dragged her to continue walking, "I didn't teach you to be a good person and do good deeds when I brought you out!" Kurokawa Shikibu said.

Seeing such an unfair thing, although Sakura Xue was in a hurry, she didn't dare to disobey, but she only felt a little blocked in her heart.

As she was walking, she suddenly heard a scream, it turned out to be a reckless man who squeezed a woman to the ground, and then left as if nothing happened, Sakura Xue was angry, and wanted to teach this reckless man a lesson, but Kurokawa Shikibu still didn't let her go, "Don't be nosy!" Kurokawa Shikibu reprimanded.

Sakurayuki glared at Kurokawa Shikibu, Kurokawa Shikibe was expressionless, and Sakurayuki turned her head again.

At noon, the three of them were a little hungry, so they found a place to eat and rest, and when they were moving their chopsticks in front of them, several rough men walked in scolding.

"I'm starving! Hey, there's a ready-made table of good dishes here. A man said as if nothing was looking.

"Ahem, this is our location, you guys go away!" Another man slapped the table, and the dishes and chopsticks shook.

Sakura Xue encountered some strange things in the morning, and she was in a bad mood, and when she saw these people making trouble, she was even more angry.

Kurokawa Shikibu stopped Sakurayuki and motioned to Miyazawa.

Miyazawa Shinobu smiled at these people instead: "A few gentlemen, this is the dish we ordered, and we came first, how did it become your position?" ”

"Bastard! We booked yesterday, go away! He nudged Miyazawa Shinobu on the shoulder.

Miyazawa didn't move, and Kurokawa Shikibu still didn't speak.

These people were pushing and yelling, and seeing that they were still not allowed to sit, they lifted the dishes on the table, and the dishes and soup splashed Sakura's body, Sakura Xue stood up suddenly, kicked away the stool in front of her and was about to meet it, but Miyazawa Shinobu dragged her and said, "Forget it, don't make trouble." ”

Kurokawa Shikibu glanced at them and said. "Let's go!" ”

Sakura Xue stared, and was pulled out of the hall by Miyazawa Shinobu Nasei, but she frequently turned her head and glared at the crowd.

Sakurayuki shook off Miyazawa's hand and complained, "Go!" Why are you holding me back? ”

Miyazawa and Kurokawa Shikibu were speechless, and Sakurayuki turned around and walked briskly ahead on her own.

Kurokawa Shikibe smiled, and said with a straight face: "Everyone has the potential to kill, but it is not stimulated, Kawashima Sakurayuki is no exception, I think she is indignant, and her nosy personality is more obvious, she will become a spy who kills people without blinking." ”

Miyazawa Shinobu looked at Sakurayuki's back and was speechless for a long time.

After walking half a street, Sakura Xue was so hungry that she didn't say a word, and she didn't behave in the slightest.

"It's time to go buy something to eat." Kurokawa Shikibe said.

Miyazawa Shinobu touched a few pockets and said, "I didn't bring much money with me, but I made a fuss just now, spent money on vegetables, and gave compensation money, and there is not much left." ”

Kurokawa Shikibu fumbled in his pocket for a long time, but finally didn't take out a penny, and said helplessly: "I never bring money, you secretly ask the senior brothers, how much money to buy something to eat, see what Sakura Xue likes, and buy some, it will still be useful then." ”

"Are you still coming? I'm afraid I won't be able to stop it later. Miyazawa said.

"It's okay, let's go."

Miyazawa Shinobu quietly gathered the surrounding brothers and sisters, and also made up some money, bought food, and ate at will, then he went to ask Sakurayu: "What do you want to eat, play, tell me, I may be able to buy you some quietly, the teacher doesn't know." ”

Sakura Xue was holding a sulk in her heart, how could she ask for anything, she didn't even say anything to eat, Miyazawa Shinobu thought that Sakura Xue usually spoke little, never confided in her heart, she didn't know her temperament at all, and she was a woman, how could she guess what a woman liked, so she didn't know what to buy.

Kurokawa Shikibu asked him to buy something, he had to pretend, Miyazawa Shinobu thought for a long time, went by himself, and when he came back, he brought a bag of heavy things out of nowhere, and handed it to Sakurayuki, saying: "Valuables, you have to handle them gently, you have to carry them well." ”

Sakura Xue took it, and it didn't feel very heavy, and seeing that Miyazawa was cautious, she was also careful.

Out of the city, walked two or three miles, to a sparsely populated, wide road place, winter dusk, reflecting the sparse clouds, thousands of miles of clear sky, blowing the slightest cool breeze, cherry snow behind them lazily followed, suddenly the palm of her hand numb, she felt a burst of relief in her arms, looking back, a person has snatched the cotton cloth bag in his hand and rushed away.

Sakura Xue was furious, chased all the way over, the man stood still, suddenly turned around, picked up the cloth bag and hit it, Sakura Xue dodged on her back, and kicked sideways.

"Be careful, don't kick something bad!" Shinobu Miyazawa shouted.

This person seems to have obtained a secret method, so he holds the bag to hide from the west, and Sakura Xue is helpless, angry and resentful.

"Do you dare to put it down!" Sakurayuki scolded, "Bastard! ”

"I won't let it go." The man grinned and teased her even more proudly.

"Make you proud!" Sakura Xue took advantage of his pride, turned around suddenly, bent down and kicked, kicked his wrist, this person ouched, put aside the bag, Sakura Xue hurried to pick it up, at this time a roar, a dagger flew over the air, Sakura Xue took a step back, this person hurriedly rushed forward to pick it up, Sakura Xue flew up and kicked, unexpectedly kicked on the bag, the bag "bang", broke the rope.

"What's in there?" Kurokawa Shikibe asked.

Miyazawa Shinobu thought it was funny when he saw the two of them, and when he heard Kurokawa Shikibe ask like this, he burst out laughing and said, "It's flour, ha-"

Kurokawa Shikibe also raised the corners of his mouth.

Bags of flour tumbled in the air, and snow-white flour poured down, drifting in the air with the wind, looking like a flowing curtain from a distance.

Sakura Xue was shocked, thinking it was something, but she just stared at it, but she was stained with flour, and she hurriedly covered her mouth and nose and ran to a clean place, squinting and seeing that the person didn't run away, she only went to pick up his dagger.

Regardless of the dust, Sakurayuki rushed over and hit it, and this person picked up the dagger and swung it over.

Shinobu Miyazawa and Kurokawa Shikibu were watching the play on the sidelines and said, "Teacher, look, Sakurayuki is hungry for a day, and she still has the strength to fight." ”

Kurokawa Shikibe smiled but did not speak.

Suddenly, Yuan Ye didn't avoid Sakura's stab, and his shoulder blade was injured, he covered the wound and stepped back, while saying, "Little junior sister, you're playing, don't come here." ”

"Huh-" Miyazawa stepped forward, seeing that the situation was not right, and worried, "This is not a joke-"

Before the words were finished, Sakura Xue didn't listen to the truth, rushed up and kicked Yuan Ye to the ground, Yuan Ye threw away the dagger, propped his hands on the ground, and half-looked up to see Kawashima Sakura Xue coming menacingly, Yuan Ye half opened his mouth, and before he could speak, Miyazawa shouted: "Sakurayuki!" Stop it! ”

Sakura Xue ignored him, stepped on the shoulder of the field, the field fell to the ground, laughing in pain, Sakura Xue threw the dagger violently, the field puffed his eyes, only to see a beam of light and shadow pass by, the dagger was stuck straight into his neck, he exhaled, motionless squinted at the dagger and trembled.

Miyazawa was frightened into a cold sweat, rushed over, and was relieved to see that there was nothing wrong.

"How do you compensate me for the flour in this land?" Sakura asked.

Yuan Ye knew what she didn't dare to do, and Miyazawa was also there, and said jokingly: "If you don't want money, you need to die." ”

As soon as Sakura Xue got angry, she extinguished the fire, but she didn't think that he was so unreasonable again, so she suddenly became angry: "You scoundrel! Want to die so much? As he spoke, he kicked his wound hard.

Although the injury was not deep, Yuan Ye also gritted his teeth in pain and shouted: "Miyazawa, don't watch the show, quickly tell her to take her feet away." ”

Sakura Xue pestle, hearing that he seemed to call Miyazawa Shinobi's name, he turned his face to look at Miyazawa Shinobi.

"It's just a bag of flour, forget it." Miyazawa Shinobu smiled and said to Sakurayuki, "Spare him." ”

Ying Xue was puzzled and asked, "I feel strange when you say this, such a precious flour, you asked me to carry it, but it is not rare at this time?" ”

Miyazawa had nothing to answer and smiled awkwardly.

"I just don't follow," Sakura Xue glared at the field and said, "I've been so angry today, and I have met you to provoke me again, and I will never let you go easily today." ”

Miyazawa saw that Yuanye's wound was still bleeding, and he was afraid that it would really hurt heavily, so he picked up the dagger that Yuanye had thrown away, handed it to Sakurayuki, and said, "Look at it." ”

"Hey, it's the same as mine?" Sakura thought to herself.

Seeing that she was still frowning, Miyazawa said straightly: "That's right, it's your own person, he is also your senior brother, I let you just now, you don't know, otherwise you won't be able to beat him." ”

Sakura Xue looked at the two of them back and forth, and a nameless fire rose in her heart, and asked, "What the hell are you guys playing again?!" ”

"Uh......" Harano covered his wounds, Miyazawa helped him to stand up slowly, and when he saw Kurokawa Shikibe coming, both of them walked away.

"You left the school, but I am still by your side, I can't allow you to go wild!" Kurokawa Shikibe pointed at Sakurayuki and scolded, "No matter what happens to you, you have to bear it!" ”

Sakurayuki trembled all over, biting her crimson lips, and her round eyes stared at Kurokawa Shikibu in front of her.

Kurokawa Shikibe stood in front of Sakurayuki with a solemn look in his eyes.

Sakura closed her eyes, took a deep breath, turned her head and picked up the dagger, and then walked straight away, feeling as if there was a net covering herself, and this net was constantly shrinking, but she couldn't break free, so a huge depression and anger rose in her heart.

The next day, today was a rare break once a month, and Sakurayuki followed Miyazawa Shinobu and Kurokawa Shikibu to a place of depression.

After Sakurayuki passed through a door, she looked curiously at the desolate scene in front of her—the ground was full of sparse grass, a row of low and old houses on the left side of the door, a two-story house on the right, a dirt road next to it, and a black-gray wall about two hundred meters in front of it, in front of which were several wooden stakes with black marks.

"Where is this?" Sakura asked.

"Execution ground." Shinobu Miyazawa said.

"Where to shoot death row prisoners?"

"Yes," Miyazawa said, and a man walked towards them.

"The execution ground is cleared, and the idlers are leaving." The man said, pointing to the dirt road.

"We've got a special approval." Kurokawa Shikibu pulled out a permit and showed it to him.

"Then stand aside, and the prisoner will be brought over." As he spoke, he heard a rumbling sound, and he hurried to the side of the road, where several cars came one after another, and then they were parked behind a row of houses, and then several groups of soldiers with guns and seven or eight tied prisoners came out of the cars. The soldiers did their duty, some stood guard, some escorted the prisoners, and some stood upright in front of several wooden stakes, spears in hand.

"What did you bring me here for?" Sakura Xue felt a sense of murder permeating the air.

"Let me show you how easy it is to kill someone." Kurokawa Shikibu said, "With a single movement of your fingers, you can end a person's life." ”

"But their sins are so great that they deserve to die."

"Guilty or not, on the other hand, how would you feel if I told you that some of them did not do anything evil in your opinion?"

"Then why execute him?" Sakura asked urgently.

"Because if someone wants him to die, he must die."

Ying Xue was stunned, and frowned: "I don't understand." ”

When Miyazawa heard these words, he felt very familiar, and suddenly remembered that he had said this, and he attracted the teacher's scolding, and he knew that Sakurayuki's words had touched the teacher's taboo.

Kurokawa Shikibe suddenly changed color and reprimanded: "You don't need to understand! Your vocation is to obey orders! You can do whatever I tell you to do, even if it's murder. ”

Sakura Xue was still struggling with this, when she heard an order from the execution ground: "Prepare—"

At this time, the officers and soldiers raised their guns and aimed at the people who were tied to the stakes.

"Shoot—"

"Bang-"

Before Sakura Xue could react, there was already a roar in her ears, and she watched from a distance that the people had already lowered their heads.

Her heart trembled, and her body felt light.

"You see, it's so easy to kill someone, just listen to the order, just shoot, without any worries." Kurokawa Shikibu turned around and saw that Sakurayuki was still stunned, so he said, "Your path has been paved since you entered the school, and now I am just letting you walk on this road yourself, everything I say to you and everything I do is teaching you, and today I am teaching you how to obey orders unconditionally and carry out all orders." ”

"What if...... I can't do it. Sakura asked blankly.

"I'll do whatever it takes to get you to do it," Kurokawa Shikibe sneered, "and you have to trust your teacher to do that." ”

As he spoke, the men were untied and carried away in a devastated cart, and then several more men were taken up and tied to a stake.

"See? Life is so worthless, you have lived for decades, you are in a hurry, or miserable, and after you die, you will still be in the dirt pit, and no one will care about you. Therefore do not spare your life, and let whoever dies kill him; Even your own life, when it's time to die, go to death, this is the mentality you should have as a top spy. ”

Sakura Xue was like thunder, suddenly in a trance, and a voice in her heart kept asking: "Is this the case?" Is that the case? ……”

Kurokawa Shikibu frowned and said, "It's time, Miyazawa, tomorrow morning, patrol the city prison, you go and make arrangements." ”

"Yes." Miyazawa replied, his heart pounding, knowing that what should come will always come.
