One hundred and four - the solution of the predecessors
"Why is that?"
Aroused by Ji Yuehua's question, Tachibana Yukino closed her eyes and said, "Normally, as long as you find a suitable weapon, you will never change it for the rest of your life, and this search process is often at the beginning of the day. To put it more crudely, once you have taken the first step on the path of a certain blade, there is little need to turn back in the future. Marshal Dongfang is like this, the commander of the Fifth Division of the previous generation, and it is also like this that you have been in the military department for a while, and you only changed in the middle of the way, which is unheard of. ”
"That's why I asked you not to laugh at me."
Revealing one's confusion to someone you don't know is much more shameful than revealing your heart to someone close to you, but it won't change.
Being so bluntly said by Tachibana Yukinai's comments that contained rhetorical questions, Ji Yuehua sighed heavily. The fatigue in my heart during these days was suddenly revealed on my delicate little face.
"As I said just now, your story is quite popular in the military department, and I have heard a little about it."
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that such a sad expression came from the face of a child under the age of twelve.
Tachibana Yukino didn't tease Ji Yuehua either, opened her eyes and took a sip of tea that was gradually getting warmer, and then went straight to the point, "The usual weapon is a silver longbow, which is the same as the weapon used by the director of the Eight Meanings Bureau of the Technology Development Bureau. At a young age, he mastered the "mindlessness" that many adults have not yet touched. Although there are not many records of official attacks, they have a single kill of B-Rank "Calamity", and as for dealing with low-level "Calamity", it is perfect in that regard. Isn't it?"
"That being said"
"Bows and arrows, I'm afraid, aren't really your favorite weapons. Right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have come here to talk to me at this time. ”
It was as if he had seen through Ji Yuehua's heart. Tachibana Yukino thought for a moment and said, "In this world, there is no such thing as a standard answer. After listening to what you said, I can give you relevant advice, but this is only my own judgment. You can refer to my opinion, or you can completely ignore it anyway. The path is all your own. Any questions about that?"
"No problem. In other words, it's up to me to decide, right?"
"It's really nice that you can understand that." Nodding in approval, Tachibana Yukino's eyes widened slightly, and she put on a serious expression. With a face of natural and tranquil beauty, it became full of majesty and ability, and continued, "Although you told me that you were confused, I think that since you questioned whether you should continue to use the bow, in fact, you have already given the answer in your heart. It's just that. You don't dare admit it, or rather, you don't dare to face it. ”
"However, according to other people, my talent in kyudo is really good, and I think that if I continue on this path, I may be able to achieve even more."
"What kind of achievements do you have to do with your choices?"
Clear eyes. A sharp and determined light flashed, and he asked rhetorically. Pierced Ji Yuehua's heart. Tachibana Yukino said softly, "Because I want to do it, I will do it." I don't practice knives, let's change it to a more traditional name. The reason why I learned kendo is because I love kendo and I don't have any other considerations. The Eastern Marshal liked to fight the enemy with an iron fist, and the Left Staff Officer used to fight with a thin sword. If you want to find shortcomings, you can grab a lot of them, so is there anything to consider? At the end of the day, we humans act on our own will. You force yourself to ignore your own desires, eventually. Isn't it time to get back to square one? If you have doubts about using a bow and arrow, and it's not something you really love, just give it up! Here's my advice. ”
"But it's one thing to like something. Living in the world, it is inevitable to be disturbed by the outside world, shouldn't we adjust our direction according to the actual conditions in order to achieve the greatest results?"
Thinking of his original intention to join the army, his originally erratic gaze became resolute, and Ji Yuehua replied, "The reason why I use a bow and arrow as a weapon now is because I have learned the skill of "no thought and one mind", and I judge that I will be better at holding a bow than myself with other weapons, and if I say that ignoring my own wishes can better protect my sisters, I wouldn't mind doing this." ”
"Maximizing effectiveness to protect the people who matter? This cannot be said to be wrong. But you're going to be confused for a long time, right?"
For Ji Yuehua's hesitation, he did not show even a trace of boredom. After asking rhetorically, Tachibana Yukino threw a question at Ji Yuehua: "Let's think about it in a different direction, what if, just what if." Some people say that they are willing to give you 100 million fortunes, and will give you many privileges in the future, and the only condition is that you leave your two sisters and never see them for the rest of your life, will you agree?"
"How could it be possible to say yes to ?!!" Without hesitation, Ji Yuehua replied.
"But with this money and those privileges, you can help your two sisters in many ways. Even if you can't meet in person, there are many ways you can support them. This is not only to maximize your own interests, but also to ensure that your two sisters can be unhindered in society, and even if this is the case, you will not agree?"
"Hmm"
There seemed to be a voice in his heart, which made him retort loudly However, Ji Yuehua only snorted and failed to say half a word.
Tachibana Yukino's metaphor, although it does not fully correspond to the facts in essence, has a certain degree of similarity.
Between results and hopes, wishes and wishes, the four are not necessarily in conflict, and sometimes, they cannot avoid contradictions.
The so-called best of both worlds does not always exist in this reality. Just as he thought before he came in, it was time to make a decision, and there was a trade-off.
"I want to use the long knife as my primary weapon again."
In his mind, he remembered Ruoxiwan's heroic posture when he fought on the western coast, and his flying blonde hair and chic posture fascinated him.
Even though, under the initiation of "Thoughtless One Heart", when it comes to killing enemies, he is definitely superior to him with bows and arrows, but he wants to be like the second sister.
Not standing in the protected rear, but standing on the real front line, as the protected party, with his own hands, to protect the position of the cherished person, it used to be Nangong Longfei standing there, and now it is his second sister.
Before thinking about it, unconsciously, Ji Yuehua had softly said the answer.
"Pretty answers, you've got the answers you're looking for, haven't you?"
