The spring breeze is gusting, the thick clouds are hanging low, and there is a faint appearance of rain.

Chihiro looked up at the oppressive gray sky and felt that these dark clouds were simply pressing on her heart.

I don't know when the rain will fall.

Chihiro and Xiao Yaichi went one after the other, aimlessly strolling through the famous commercial street of the Imperial City.

Chihiro doesn't really want to buy anything, for example, the two of them have been shopping until now, and Hachi doesn't have more than two packs of dim sum in his hand.

Depressed and depressed, where is Chihiro still in the mood to go shopping? If it weren't for Hachi "deadlifting" her, she wouldn't have come.

"Don't be unhappy." Hachi, who was behind, looked at Chihiro and pouted, and couldn't help but say, "You can hang an oil bottle on your mouth." ”

He is not a person who likes to go shopping, Chihiro has a heavy face for several days, and her willow eyebrows are upside down, so she thought of this method and asked her to solve it.

I heard that the woman was unhappy, so I took her shopping and bought things immediately.

This panacea obviously has its limitations, and it doesn't apply to all unhappiness.

Xiaoba stopped in front of the dried jujube stall, looked at the dried and shriveled red dates, and suddenly thought of something.

Didn't Chihiro Mo come to that? Would you like to buy her some supplements?

Hachi doesn't know Chihiro's specific days, in addition to the fact that her daily life has always been in charge of Huahua, and another reason is that the days she comes are not fixed.

Hachi tunes out the previous record and mentally calculates her cycle.

The results told him it was unlikely, but the days were coming.

Supplements will be used sooner or later, so you won't lose by buying more.

Chihiro was so immersed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice when Hachi disappeared behind her.

When she came back to her senses and found that there was no one around, she immediately turned around to look for it.

He didn't go far when Chihiro saw Hachi, who had several more bags of things in his hand.

"What are you going to buy?" Chihiro asked.

She knows that Hachi has always been critical of herself, and these things can only be bought for herself.

"There are red dates, walnuts, and brown sugar," Hachi showed her the things he bought, "and pork liver, longan, apples, ......."

Chihiro interrupted him, "How did you buy so much food?"

Hachi doesn't eat any food, and the tatters are still sent out by him, and the food and fruits provided by the inn can't be said to be readily available, but they are also very varied, I don't know what he buys so much for.

"It's all for you." Hachi was afraid that the horse's ass didn't shoot on the horse's ass this time.

Chihiro's eyes widened in disbelief, did he feel that his body was weak?

"I counted until your period was coming, so I bought these things." Seeing that Chihiro didn't understand, Hachi explained.

Chihiro's face turned red, she didn't know how Hachi knew her day, she had never told him.

"Thank you, thank you......"

He knows everything! Chihiro turned around and complained silently.

The key is that Hachi knows everything about herself, including private things like menstrual periods, but how much does she know about Hachi?

He doesn't seem to have any preferences and never loses his temper, and Chihiro feels like she doesn't know him at all.

Robots are not human, how do you understand?

"Chihiro?" Seeing that her face was darkening little by little, Xiaoba wondered.

"I'm fine."

Chihiro stared at her toes moving forward, how could she forget that Hachi had something to care about, and he cared about everything about not tying the boat.

She sighed inwardly and decided to have a showdown with him.

"I've been thinking about how to make the stone steamed bun appear for the past few days. You said that Shi Manju is the crystallization of human negative emotions, is it just that the target is always anxious, jealous, desperate, and painful...... That's it? ”

The dark clouds in the sky are getting closer and closer to the ground, and it seems that the next moment it will rain.

The stall owners are closing their stalls one after another.

"But how can you make a person miserable forever? Hurt the body, destroy the spirit? If you tell me that our mission must do whatever it takes to harm an innocent person, I can't do it. ”

As she spoke, Chihiro stopped, a drizzle of rain falling in the sky, and she squinted her eyes and wiped her face.

"Princess Mingyue has no grudge against me, and she is not a heinous person, so I have no reason to hurt her."

Ever since Chihiro learned that Princess Mingyue was the target person, she naturally thought about how to complete the task. After she has the skill of "rudimentary wardrobe", it is imminent to complete the task.

"So that's what you've been struggling with these days," Hachi's voice was weak, as if coming from a distance, "we can guard her." ”

Chihiro didn't notice the change in him and continued walking.

"Wait? What if it takes a lifetime? What if until Princess Mingyue died, and the stone steamed buns were not formed? ”

Chihiro feels that this method is a bit unreasonable, Hachi is a robot and is not afraid of the passage of time, but she is afraid, she is afraid that she will never have a chance to do what she wants to do, and she is afraid that she will never remember her name.

Her life is limited, and under certain conditions, Hachi is immortal, and she doesn't even know his age to this day.

"There isn't much time left without tying the boat, and no one knows when Princess Mingyue's stone steamed bun will be formed, except to approach her and destroy her will to hurt her body, I really can't think of any other way." Chihiro sighed and exhaled the depression in her chest, "Hachi-chan, I'm sorry! This job may not be the right fit for me. ”

The soft rain silk is woven into an ethereal spring veil like smoke, and a few naughty children can occasionally be seen on the street, playful in the rain, refusing to go home.

The two didn't speak, and after walking for a while, Chihiro's lips opened lightly: "Actually, I really want to help you, but it seems that I will retreat at every critical moment." Why don't I hate myself like this, this self who is so weak when I encounter difficulties? Xiaoba, tell me, is there any other way to get Shi Manju quickly without harming Princess Mingyue? ”

No one behind him answered.

"Hachi?"

Chihiro turned, and there was no one behind her.

The rain and fog were thick and the streets tended to fall silent.

In the distance, there seemed to be a person in a moon-white robe lying on the ground, with large and small packages scattered around him.

"Hachi!

Chihiro called out and ran towards the man.

The spring rain pours wet and rammed the ground to level the dirt road, which is particularly slippery. Chihiro didn't step on her feet, let out an exclamation, and fell to the ground.

Hachi lay not far in front of him, motionless.

Chihiro didn't care about the large cloud of yellow mud on her clothes, got up, and continued to run.

"How so?" She squatted in front of Hachi and muttered to herself.

Hachi's face seemed to be whiter than before, his eyes were closed, and his face was calm as if he was asleep.

Chihiro reached out and found that her hands were stained with dirt, and she rubbed them against her skirt before gently patting his face.

Soft to the touch, metallic temperature.

"Hachi?"

Hachi didn't react.

Is this out of power?

Chihiro looked up left and right, and there was no one around.

But she can't let Hachi lie here, this rain doesn't know when it will end.

Can robots get wet? Chihiro then realized that she had never seen Hachi go into the water or take a bath.

I don't know if anything will happen to him if he drenches like this.
