At four o'clock in the afternoon, the night of the four directions, which had been asleep, finally woke up.

Due to the will to resist the other Kaguya, coupled with the overuse of Tsukika, the spirit of the Quartet Kaguya was very depleted, which also caused her to sleep until now.

She propped herself up from the bed, first tidying up her appearance in front of the mirror, and when everything was ready, she reached out and put away the Nara deer hairpin that was on the table.

"Whew..."The Quartet Kaguya exhaled softly, a hint of determination flashing in his large delicate black eyes.

Next, she and Master Beichuan are going to meet the head of the Quartet family...

Thinking like this, the mood of the four directions Kaguya couldn't help but become nervous.

Although Beichuan Temple had roughly mentioned the situation on his side before, it couldn't suppress the uneasiness in her heart.

After all, she has always lived under the oppressive education of the Sifang family, and she has an indescribable sense of jealousy towards the head of the Quartet family.

But everything is fine... It's going to be fine.

Kaguya placed his palms on his chest.

She was confident that Master Kitagawa would be able to put an end to everything.

In that case, the only way to do this is to believe in him.

Kaguya took another deep breath and waited until his mood had relaxed a little before pushing the door open.

And then—

She couldn't help blinking, and there was some confusion in her voice:

"You guys are...?"

In front of her, there were two neat rows of people from the Quartet family, all of whom seemed to be waiting for her to wake up.

Seeing Kaguya's question, one of the leading male voices said in a slightly respectful voice, "Miss Kaguya, the head of the family wants to see you." ”

The head of the house wants to see me?

Kaguya opened his mouth.

Her brain couldn't react to this sudden happening.

Before the Quartet Kazuya on this side could make a statement, the leading man stepped out of the way, and the Quartet people behind him rushed up.

"Wait! Master Kitagawa, he..."The Sifang Kaguya, who was surrounded by the Quartet, opened his mouth.

But these clansmen ignored it and sent the Sifang Kaguya directly to the car.

What's going on?

Could it be that something happened to the Sifang family?

And Master Kitagawa...

It all happened so fast that she didn't understand what was going on until Kaguya was put in the car.

She sat in the car and felt a little restless, and after a while, Shifang Kaguya looked at the driver in front of her and asked, "Excuse me, can you please tell me what happened?" ”

The driver in charge of driving the car glanced at the square Kaguya in the rearview mirror one more time, and his expression was a little strange: "Miss Kaguya... Can't you... Don't know what's going on? ”

His voice was full of unspeakable strangeness, as if he couldn't accept the words of the four directions.

Naturally, Kaguya was aware of this, and she opened her mouth strangely, and after a long while, she asked, "I hope you can tell me." ”

“... When Kaguya-sama meets the head of the house, everything will be clear. He had actually arrived at Tianchuan Village yesterday. ”

The driver shook his head, and had no intention of staying on this issue, but the other party's last words still caught the attention of Kaguya Quartet.

The head of the Quartet family had already arrived in Tianchuan Village yesterday?!

Her face was stunned, and her palms began to sweat.

As if sensing the change in Sifang Kaguya's face, the driver kindly added two sentences: "The head of the family actually went to the Sifang family private residence in Tianchuan Village yesterday, but he didn't reveal it to the outside world, and we only found out today." ”

This sentence made the Quartet Kaguya subconsciously clench his cuffs.

The head of the Quartet family secretly came to the private residence of the Sifang family in Tianchuan Village as early as yesterday... But it was not revealed to outsiders ...

The purpose of his act in such concealment must be for the elixir of immortality!

In order to prevent some accidents, the other party came to Tianchuan Village in advance to wait.

If the other party knows that the elixir of immortality has been swallowed by another Kaguya... No... Until then, the elixir of immortality was inherently flawed... Will this answer satisfy the head of the family who is so looking forward to the elixir of immortality?

The Quartet Kaguya was completely at a loss, and the courage he had just mustered up was already a little shaken.

The main thing is Master Kitagawa...

"Are you thinking about Master Kitagawa?"

A question came from the passenger seat.

The man who took the lead just now said in a calm tone, "If it's that Kitagawa mage's matter... Kaguya-san doesn't have to worry. ”

"......" Quartet Kaguya.

Why did this lead man know about the affair between her and Kitagawa Temple?

Master Kitagawa...

"Master Kitagawa, what's wrong with him?!" As soon as she thought that something might have happened to Beichuan Temple, Sifang Kaguya could no longer suppress her feelings, and the round mirror on her chest instantly gushed out a terrifying moonlight, which was like the sharpest bayonet, aimed at the main pilot and co-pilot.

But what the Quartet Kaguya didn't expect at all was that the driver and the man in the lead both smiled wryly: "Kaguya... Miss... Don't get excited, instead of worrying about Master Kitagawa, you should worry..."

As they spoke, the two men looked at each other and let out a burst of extremely helpless laughter.

The victim posture of the two of them made the Quartet Kaguya a little confused.

......

The private residence of the Sifang family.

This is a property purchased by the Shikata family who left Amakawa Village to develop in Tokyo.

After all, this area of Tianchuan Village is also the ancestral land of the Sifang family, so of course they want to leave a spark here.

But who would have thought that-

"Will the fire of the Sifang family become like this...?" The man in the lead looked at the door in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitching.

Kaguya's face wasn't much better.

Her mouth was wide open, her big black eyes widening, as if she had no idea of what was in front of her.

In front of the two of them was a wooden door that had been torn down.

The wooden door was torn down in one piece, and in some places there were pale yellow wooden thorns exposed.

It was as if it had been hit by a heavy truck, and the entire gate was laid out in front of Kaguya.

"What the hell is this...?" Shifang Kaguya couldn't help but look back at the man beside him.

The man from the Quartet family next to him laughed dryly, and said in an extremely unnatural tone, "I can form a fate with someone like Master Beichuan... The price of a gate is actually nothing. You're right, Kaguya-sama. ”

“？？？？” After hearing this, Shifang Kaguya swallowed his saliva, and when he turned to look at the ruins of the gate again, a voice also came out: "What do you mean... This is what Master Kitagawa did? ”

If you didn't say it, I thought it was a truck crashing in.

The man nodded embarrassedly, and then stretched out his hand and gestured: "He pinched a large, somewhat exaggerated black hammer, and smashed the door like this in one fell swoop." ”

His words were full of covering.

This also made the Quartet Kaguya probably understand.

It must be that the Quartet family deliberately embarrassed Beichuan Temple and wanted to give the other party something like a closed door, but the gate became like this.

But that's to say... Kitagawa Temple came to the Sifang house before her...?

Quartet Kaguya's heart was tense.

This is not to worry about the property of the Sifang family, she is more worried about the safety of Beichuan Temple.

Kaguya continued to walk forward under the guidance of the man.

The farther she went, the more frightened she became.

Many of the Quartet people fell to the ground in all directions, and their faces, which had originally looked fairly white, were bruised and swollen, as if they had been beaten severely.

Some people who were lying on the ground in a coma would jump up and shout, "Don't! Don't hit! Please don't hit me! ”

Seeing this look, the man who took the lead next to him lowered his head in embarrassment.

Hitting someone is actually not a shameful thing, but after beating someone, it is called humiliation when someone is beaten like this.

He walked out of the area with the four directions and walked inside.

After walking inside for about a minute, the man stopped in front of a private room with Shifang Kaguya.

"The head of the house is waiting for you inside." After politely leaving this sentence, he took two steps back and motioned for Kaguya to go in by himself.

Looking at the closed paper door of the elegant room, to be honest, the four sides of Kaguya were indeed a little nervous.

Although she considers herself the daughter of the head of the Quartet family outside, if you really want to talk about it, she is actually just an adopted daughter.

From birth to now, she has actually seen each other only a dozen times.

Is Gen Kitagawa also in here?

Kaguya looked down silently and tried to reach out and pull the paper door open.

Then she heard a middle-aged man's voice coming from inside the room:

"Kaguya, you're outside, you don't have to come in."

Hearing this, Quartet Kaguya put down his fingers, and then responded: "Yes, Lord of the Family." ”

She knelt down in the wooden corridor outside the door.

After a while, she heard another voice from the room:

"There's something I want to talk to you about."

As soon as she heard this, Sifang Kaguya's face became nervous, and she hurriedly lowered her head, her tone full of apologies: "I'm sorry, I couldn't complete my mission, the elixir of immortality..."

"I'm not talking to you about the elixir of immortality. To be precise, Master Beichuan has already told me the truth about the elixir of immortality. ”

The head of the Quartet family spoke, but his tone was not quite right, as if he was pulling the cold air.

This made the Quartet Kaguya blink a little incomprehensibly, and she still asked a little bit, "Lord of the family, are you okay?" ”

The head of the Quartet in the elegant room was silent.

Then the other party ignored Kaguya's question, and said calmly in a suppressed tone, "Kaguya, do you want to go to school?" Or rather... Live some of the lives of ordinary people? ”

"......" Quartet Kaguya.

What kind of question is this? Test yourself?

Her eyes twinkled, and she said, pretending not to understand, "I don't know what you're talking about. ”

"You don't have to pretend to be like this, Master Beichuan has mentioned it to me about you, and this negotiation has been successful, and my question is based on his statement."

From the saying of Kitagawa Temple?

Sifang Kaguya's heart trembled slightly.

By now, she had almost figured out what was going on.

Beichuan Temple actually came to the Sifang house when she was resting.

He wanted to settle everything by himself, and he didn't want to bring himself with him...

Kaguya Quata bit her lower lip.

A person breaks into the dangerous situation of the Sifang family, and also confronts and talks with the head of the family... I really don't know how much I owe Beichuan Temple.

As soon as he thought of this, Sifang Kaguya asked, "I don't know where Master Beichuan is now?" The head of the house? ”

Since the head of the Quartet family also said that Beichuan Temple successfully negotiated with him, then Beichuan Temple should be safe and sound now.

The head of the Quartet in the room groaned, and then replied:

"He's gone."

"Left?" Kaguya asked repeatedly.

"Yes, he's gone. I had already left Amakawa Village a few hours earlier and went back to Tokyo. ”

That's right...

Kaguya's body softened.

Kitagawa Temple has long since left... I went back to Tokyo.

"Then let me ask you again, do you want to live an ordinary life like this? If you want to live an ordinary life, I can also arrange a place for you to live and go to school, but correspondingly, the moon mirror on your body... No, now it should be a round mirror that combines the moon mirror and the moon obscure mirror, right? You've got to give it back to the Quartet. ”

"......" Quartet Kaguya.

Are you willing to live a normal life... Far from the Quartet?

If it had been before, this question would have already been answered by the four directions.

But now she is a little confused.

Staying away from the Quartet also means staying away from weirdness.

And this also means that it is far away from Kitagawa Temple.

Even if he can live a peaceful and ordinary normal life, when he meets Beichuan Temple again, what can he do for him?

The answer is undoubtedly nothing.

Is there really no problem with indebtedness to yourself who owes such a heavy favor and does not want to repay it?

But Kitagawa Temple obviously wants to let himself live an ordinary life.

At this time, should I listen to the idea of Kitagawa Temple?

The girl's mood is complicated.

On top of this question, she should have had the answer early, but now she couldn't help but hesitate.

The next moment, she seemed to think of something.

Shifang Kaguya clenched the round mirror on his chest hard, raised his head and said, "I want to continue to live as a moon witch, but at the same time, I also want to live the life I want, and this is my choice." ”

Yes.

Kitagawa Temple once said that people with insufficient ability can only choose one or even can't make a choice, but those with enough ability can choose all of them.

She wants to be the one who can help Kitagawa Temple, and she also wants to live as a Shifang Kaguya.

That's her choice.

Because—

"The round mirror can only be used by the Moon Witch, and even if the Sifang family gets it, there is a lack of people to drive it, so I am indispensable." Shifang Kaguya's eyes were blazing as he looked at the elegant room, as if he wanted to see through the thin paper door to see through the face of the head of the Sifang family.

It was a choice she made.

It didn't go down according to the ideas of the head of the Kitagawa Temple and the Quartet family.

It was the third path she chose.

It's also –

She is a person with a position, not a mayfly's choice!
