Chapter 359: Once Upon a Time (2)

When sending Kurihara Momiji back to the family, Ishikawa Asami's whole person was blind, looking at Kurihara Momiji lying on the snow-white bed with a bloodless face, if it weren't for the slight breathing and faint heartbeat, Ishikawa Asami would have wondered if the person was dead.

"Patriarch Grandpa, what's wrong with Momiba-chan?" For a long time, Asami Ishikawa trembled and asked the patriarch who had been frowning and standing aside.

The patriarch glanced at her and said expressionlessly: "Asami-chan, I know that you are very impatient to protect Momiji-chan, but I hope that you will do it well during your tenure and stop irritating Momiba-chan." ”

Ishikawa Asami's face turned pale in an instant, and she instantly understood that the patriarch must have known that there was a gap between her and Kurihara Momiji, but she didn't know how the patriarch found out, after all, the patriarch usually doesn't come to see the two of them, even if she came, Ishikawa Asami was very well disguised, and she looked very affectionate with Kurihara Momiji, and the patriarch obviously didn't find out, how could he suddenly say such a thing? Asami Ishikawa couldn't help but look at the dead man lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

The patriarch frowned slightly: "Don't look at her, this is what I found." Momiji-chan never comes to me in private to reveal the bottom of others. Are you wondering why I would say that to you when you are so well disguised? The patriarch glanced at Asami Ishikawa, who looked shocked, meaningfully.

Asami Ishikawa bit her lower lip, and finally said, "Patriarch Grandpa, I did think so before. I really don't understand, why is Momiba-chan such a good person, why do you have to be so nervous about her? Isn't she good alone? As she spoke, Asami Ishikawa inadvertently revealed some grievances.

In fact, why doesn't Asami Ishikawa want to have a good relationship with Kurihara Momiji? When she first started living with Kurihara Momiji, she was jumping up and down around Kurihara Momiji every day, where was the interaction not lively? But what made Ishikawa Asami start to be impatient is that Kurihara Momiji has always had an indifferent expression, or just frowning, sitting there silently and not knowing what she is thinking, and for Ishikawa Mami's topics, she doesn't pay attention to them at all, which makes Ishikawa Mamiji begin to be disappointed, and Kurihara Momiji begins to be estranged.

The patriarch seemed to have seen through everything: "I know you will complain about Momiji-chan's indifference, but in fact, she didn't take care of you, just because she didn't know how to deal with you." As he spoke, the patriarch also sighed.

Ishikawa Asami was stunned, and after a while, she slowly grinned the corners of her mouth and said stiffly: "Patriarch Grandpa, are you making excuses for her?" ”

When the patriarch heard this, he shook his head: "No, I'm just telling the truth." Don't look at Momiji-chan's indifferent personality, in fact, she is a very lively child, and she will be very serious about completing the tasks we have issued to her. Maybe in the eyes of outsiders, she can complete a task very calmly, but in fact, no one can see how much effort she puts in later. And Asami, child, you have to remember that those warm-hearted people are not necessarily smiling people, she may also have a cold face, but if you have any difficulties, she is definitely the first person to come to your aid. ”

Asami Ishikawa didn't understand what Patriarch Kurihara was talking about, "Grandpa Patriarch, you haven't said why Momiji-chan keeps being cold to me?" You say she just can't express it, but she won't even say a word? Speaking of this, Asami Ishikawa was dissatisfied, every time she said a lot of things here, Kurihara Momiji just looked at herself deeply and then turned around to read the book, without giving a word! That's what makes Asami Ishikawa feel the most embarrassed.

The Kurihara patriarch realized that he seemed to be off topic, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed, and then pretended to cough and confused: "This, in fact, it's just because Momiji-chan has had no friends since she was a child, and from time to time she falls into a coma because of empathy, which has always made her feel inferior." So she has never taken the initiative to talk to people, because she is afraid that others will not be willing to deal with her because of her illness. Speaking of this, the patriarch also shook his head, obviously others felt that they were very envious of the ability they wanted, how could it become a strange disease here in Kurihara Momiji, and how she explained it to her, she didn't want to believe it, which was also a headache for the patriarch.

Hearing the patriarch say this, Ishimaru Kosuke immediately understood that she was not stupid in the first place, so when she thought of what the patriarch said, and then thought of Kurihara Momiji's expression every time, she instantly knew that what the patriarch said was true.

Because every time I hear Asami Ishikawa finish speaking, Kurihara Momiji always opens his eyes widen first, and then immediately lowers his eyes and turns his head, no longer looking at Asami Ishikawa. This is probably thinking about what to say, Ishikawa Asami thought distressedly, because in the past, as long as he didn't receive an answer immediately, he would immediately jump to the topic, but now that he thinks about it, Kurihara Momiji at that time may not have really thought of how to answer himself? Then he immediately changed the subject, and Kurihara Momiji never had a chance to answer any questions.

Seeing Asami Ishikawa's regretful look, the patriarch was finally relieved, so that the two little girls could finally reconcile, and he, the patriarch who was about to retire, finally did a very meaningful thing.

"So, Grandpa Patriarch," Asami Ishikawa looked worriedly at the person lying on the bed, "when will Momiba-chan wake up?" ”

"I don't know about that," Kurihara Patriarch sighed and stroked his long beard, "The time it takes for Momiba-chan to fall into a coma is not certain, so we can't guess when she'll wake up." ”

Asami Ishikawa, who was still young, asked in a tangled way: "I've never seen Momiji-chan faint, patriarch grandpa, why did Momiba-chan faint?" "Just because of that ability to empathize? Isn't that scary? Asami Ishikawa couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Kurihara Momiji.

"Fainting is because of empathy, Momiba-chan will be forced to see the past of those criminals, and the scene when they brutally killed others, but," Kurihara patriarch shook his head, "Actually, we don't know what Momiba-chan can see after fainting, but we only know that the scene is very terrifying." Although I tell you that you don't understand it now, you just need to know that during the time when Momiba-chan is in a coma, she must not be stimulated by the outside world, so we must guard her here. Because if she is stimulated by the outside world, Momiba-chan is likely not herself. ”

The latter words, the Kurihara patriarch didn't say it, but Ishikawa Asami also knew very well that the Kurihara Momiji at that time would definitely become the object of empathy, or the person killed by the object of empathy, and from then on he became crazy.

Since then, although Kurihara Momiji is still the same as before, he will not immediately express his opinion when Ishikawa Asami says something, but Ishikawa Asami has also learned, no longer urging Kurihara Momiji, but quietly waiting for her answer, and often so, it can be answered.

In this way, the relationship between Asami Ishikawa and Kurihara Momiji has finally recovered, no, it can actually be said that it is better than before, after all, the two of them will still communicate now.

Slowly, Kurihara Momiji is no longer silent because of the frequent communication with Ishikawa Mami, and even sometimes Ishikawa Mamiji can hear Kurihara Momiji take the initiative to discuss some things with her, these things surprised Ishikawa Asami from the beginning, and then he has become accustomed to it.

Later, Kurihara Momiji can even go out on his own to communicate with others, just like the Kurihara Momiji that Natsuki first saw, he will take the initiative to talk, if it was before, take the initiative to say hello to people, it must be handed over to Ishikawa Asami to do it.

Getting back to the point, after Natsuki heard the question asked by Asami Ishikawa, he nodded with a smile: "Actually, there is a way, but with my current ability, I really can't help Momiji-chan solve it at one time." And actually, Momiji-chan wouldn't need me, would it? ”

When Natsuki asked just now, Kurihara Momiji directly refused, but now, she was really silent.

Natsuki is right, if it weren't for his own ability, why would the family attach so much importance to himself? It has even been determined internally that she is the next patriarch of the Kurihara family. Kurihara Momiji imagined that if he lost this ability, then I'm afraid that his current self is just a little minion.

Because although she is a descendant, she doesn't have any special abilities that can help her gain these attention, if it is compared to spiritual power, there are too many descendant disciples in the family who are stronger than her own ability, and she has no competitive advantage at all.

So when Natsuki asked again, Kurihara Momiji was no longer entangled, and after being silent for a while, he broke the quiet atmosphere: "Natsuki-kun is right, I really can't lose this ability." ”

Kurihara Momiji doesn't love vanity and wants to live in the envy of everyone, but if she loses this ability, then their family will not be so grand anymore.

It's not that Kurihara Momiji is too exaggerated, it's just that the ranking war between families and clans is also the most urgent thing every year, and the Kurihara family wouldn't be in front if it weren't for Kurihara Momiji's ability.
