Chapter Twenty-Nine: Night Talk (1st Update)
Late at night, Mo sat in the room, staring at the ornaments on the table. But at this time, if someone next to him looked closely, they would find that his eyes were not focused, and it was obvious that his mind was already here.
Netherworld, Yellow Spring, Lethe River, the other side...... In the ocean of spirit, countless memories reverberate, and all relevant information is found, screened, and combined......
Tuk Tuk ......
Suddenly, there was a crisp knock at the door.
Mo's figure shook slightly, and his dark eyes instantly came back to his senses. Then he raised his head with a little doubt, it's all this time, who is it?
When he opened the door and saw the figure outside, Mo was stunned.
"Good evening." , Yuyuko outside the house smiled slightly.
Mo was stunned, and then nodded as well, "Good evening." ”
Yuyuko's gaze swept slightly into the room behind Mo, and then smiled, "What, aren't you going to let me in?" ”
"Ah, rude ......", Mo hurriedly stepped out of the way, "Please ......"
Yuyuko entered the room, the two sat down, Mo beckoned, and the tea sets placed aside fell on the table in an orderly manner.
Then I saw that the palm of Mo's hand was weak, and a red light lingered on the kettle, and the water in the kettle was boiled in an instant. Then pour hot water into the teapot, steep, and pour the tea......
It wasn't until the two of them picked up the teacups and took a sip of the hot tea that Yuyuko spoke: "It's been this time, I'm really sorry to bother you." ”
Mo shook his head and didn't make a sound.
Yuyuko's gaze swept over Mo's hair, and even after a day had passed, the gray appearance had not dissipated at all, "Your body, are you okay......"
"Don't worry, it's only temporary, and it will recover after a while." , The ink fingers subconsciously rubbed the hair around the ears, and under the touch, it only felt as if they were rubbing a piece of dry grass.
It seems that it may take a few days to return to the original state......
Yuyuko stared at Mo's eyes for a long time, and only after confirming that Mo was not a comforting word, did she breathe a sigh of relief, "Then I'll rest assured......"
Then, she took another sip of hot tea before continuing: "Na, Mo, you found a monster today, right?" Although it was a question, it was obvious that she already knew the answer in her tone.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm just ......", Mo hurriedly wanted to stand up and apologize.
"No, no, you don't need to apologize, and there's nothing to apologize for!" , Youyuko hurriedly raised her hand to stop the ink, then bowed her head and said, "It's me, I've been hiding from you, I'm really sorry!" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Mo to respond, Yuyuko bowed her head again and said, "Also, I have to apologize to you for being jealous of her." Actually, she didn't have any malicious intentions, she just did that because she was too worried about me. ”
"Obviously, I asked her not to involve you in the morning, but she still couldn't help it...... I'm really sorry! ”
Mo was stunned, then sighed lightly and said, "I understand, can you please raise your head first?" ”
"This is what I don't know about the so-called entanglement, and if I really want to apologize, then it should be me. But if it goes on like this, we will only apologize to each other, so why don't we even settle each other? ”
Yuyuko paused, slowly raised her head, and said with a smile: "Well, then so be it." ”
After thinking about it sideways, Yuyuko continued to speak: "Now, Mo, are we friends?" ”
Mo was stunned for a moment, and then his fingers unconsciously scratched his cheek, "Well, if you can see you as a friend, then I am indeed very happy." ”
"Huh...... That's ......", Yuyuko chuckled, "Me too, thank you, Mo." ”
"No, it's not much to thank for......
"Then ......", Yuyuko straightened her posture, "As a friend, I have a request for you. ”
Seeing this, Mo also sat up straight and said, "Please speak." ”
"Regarding the matter of the Westward Demon, please give up!"
"......", Mo opened his lips slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything, just silence.
Yuyuko continued: "After you fought with 'it' today, you should also understand, it is something that should not be left in the world, and it is not something that the world can compete with. So, give up, there's absolutely no need for you to take the risk. ”
"As for the rest, just leave it to me......"
“……”
Yuyuko paused, and then smiled: "Moreover, isn't it a cost-effective thing to use one person's life to save the lives of tens of millions of people?" ”
"No kidding!" , with a bang, the teacup in Mo's hand slammed on the table.
Yuyuko raised her head slightly in surprise and looked at Mo.
"Ah...... I'm sorry ......", Mo released the teacup with his left hand and covered half of his face, "I...... What a faux pas......"
It's really a gaffe, I actually ...... Sure enough, because the mental wear is too much, even the emotions can't be controlled?
"......", Yuyuko looked at the ink, and then for some reason, suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled: "Hehe......"
"I'm sorry, I'm not usually like this, it's just a momentary ......"
"No, no, that's not what I meant......", Yuyuko smiled and shook her head, "I just think it's good for you to do this...... I like it......"
"Huh?!"
"Hehe......", seeing Mo's stunned appearance, Yuyuko couldn't help laughing again, "Well, it's good for you to do this, I really think so......"
“……”
"Ah, I didn't mean to laugh at you. It's just that, sometimes, it's good to vent your emotions properly, I think so......"
"Now, Mo, sometimes it's okay to be a little willful. Otherwise, it would be too tiring, wouldn't it? ”
"......", after being silent for a while, Mo shook his head, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, "Maybe, but when it comes to 'willful', I am often criticized by many clan elders in the family for 'reckless behavior'." ”
Yuyuko shook her head, those are two different things......
"Aren't we friends, so it's forgivable to occasionally lie to a friend." Yuyuko smiled sideways.
"......", Mo slowly lowered his head, covered his face with his right hand and said, "That's too inferior......",
"Hehe......"
"Now, Mo ......", Yuyuko slowly stood up and turned her head to look at the bookshelf on the side, "Didn't you say before that you want to hear my story?" ”
Yuyuko lowered her head and muttered for a moment, then turned around again and looked at Mo, "So...... I wonder if you're still interested in listening to it......
"A ...... with a story about a little girl"
"It was a very simple, ordinary story, but for me, it was a very precious story......
…… To be continued......
