Chapter 216: Kaoru's Confession
The breath of humanity has disappeared completely, and only ominous winds are left in this street.
Kaoru Kawahira spoke slowly.
"Hu Jiuye, can you please tell everyone present everything you see and know the Tao?"
"This" Gojiu couldn't help but gasp.
At this time, Kaoru Kawahira exudes an incredible tenderness. Because of the harmony of light and darkness, he looks very illusory and ethereal, and even gives people the feeling that it is possible to blend into the dark night with a light touch.
"Actually, I thought that when you searched my dormitory, it would be the best time to say everything...... You see that, right?"
Gokuya couldn't say a word.
"Please, please wait a minute! Kaoru-sama, what the hell are you talking about?"
As the captain, Neem's question just spoke to the hearts of others.
For Neem, Rush, Myon, Imari, and Sashika, Kaoru suddenly said something inexplicable after meeting up with the others. And for Gokuya, Celestial Sect, and Furano, who knew almost everything about the Dao, Kaoru's sudden order was really beyond their predictions.
Seeing that Hu Jiuye could only freeze in place, Kaoru smiled a little sadly:
"That's right...... Suddenly telling you to do this must have bothered you, right? I'm really sorry. β
Dao Lu apologized and turned to a nearby telephone pole and spoke: "Mr. in a top hat, I remember you spied in the hiding place of Equatorial Zhai, right?" Could you please come and explain?"
Hearing this, the surprised doctor slowly walked out from behind the telephone pole.
"So you...... Already aware of my presence?"
"Hmm."
Kaoru responds with a smooth smile.
"Equatorial Zhai doesn't seem to have noticed your breath...... But I'm more sensitive to that. I don't feel your breath, I look for something wrong with my eyes. β
The doctor could only stand aside with a puzzled face.
Kaoru said with a mischievous face, "Don't worry, I just want you to tell them everything you see and hear in front of them." Simple, right?"
"Even if you say so......"
"Kaoru-sama! This! What's going on? You said to peep in the hiding place of Equatorial Zhai! How can it be...... Kaoru-sama, could you please tell us all about it yourself?"
Neem insisted on refusing to back down, and he was also sad for a long time. However, Tianzong took the place of Hu Jiuye and walked in front of Kaoru silently. She looked at her in an unpredictable look. Express your will without any emotional ups and downs:
"It's up to me."
Kaoru only smiled in return when she spoke.
"Tianzong, thank you."
Then Tianzong recounted in a calm voice and indifferent tone the details of the three people's discovery of the wonderful ice coffinβthe wonderful little room found at the end of the underground passage in a race with Yimari and Shashiga, and the two people lying in the small room and being frozen.
"Kaoru-sama! Who is the person lying in the ice coffin? Why would you put that kind of thing in that kind of place?"
As soon as Tianzong's words were finished, Dong immediately opened his mouth to ask; Miao Yin's whole body trembled, and her heart was clung to an indescribable fear, revealing an expression of tears; Lin Cao held her hand firmly and closed her eyes behind her eyes. But her ears were desperately listening so as not to miss the whole thing.
"I can't answer."
It was a simple and cold voice.
ββββ
Hearing this answer, Neem staggered back a few steps because of the excessive blow. It was the first time in her life that she had heard Kaoru say such a direct rejection.
Then Imari and Shashika asked:
"Heavenly Sect. What kind of people are you seeing in the little room?"
Hearing this, Tianzong turned his head to look at Hu Jiuye. In the face of Tianzong's wordless actions, Hu Jiuye immediately understood what this meant, and after regaining his usual calm a little, he explained it with the doctor's unique and correct performance:
"One of them was a middle-aged man, in his early thirties, with a burly physique and a beard. His tanned body was scarred by many scars, and it is speculated that he was engaged in some kind of dangerous industry. β
"And naked!"
Furano seems to think that this is quite important. Complement it from the side. Gokuya nodded:
"That's right. The other is a teenage girl who is about the same height as Zhiyu...... With black hair and a strong genetic resemblance to the aforementioned man, I speculate that the two of them are father and daughter. β
"She's also naked!"
Furano excitedly added. Gokuya hesitated slightly. Name the most critical information:
"If my guess is correct, both of these people are from the Kawahira family."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was taken aback. Moreover, this sentence also reversed the meaning of all the previous conversations one hundred and eighty degrees, and the faces of the girls could clearly see that they were shaken by this.
Kaoru, however, was extraordinarily calm.
He looked at the doctor with a non-caring look. Wordless urging him.
"Alas......"
The doctor sighed:
"I don't know what you're thinking."
Then he put on a serious expression, ready to say what he saw and heard.
"When it comes to this, it seems that I can't do it if I don't say it. All right. In that case, I will do what you wish. Ladies and gentlemen, please be prepared and listen carefully to me. β
The doctor looked at the talking girl with sharp eyes, and said:
"This gentleman has a cooperative relationship with Equatorial Zhai."
"Bah!" I don't know who made a sound similar to a mournful scream.
"I did see this gentleman offering him techniques and hiding places to Equatorial Zhai, and talking to him intimately, assisting him in his destruction of the city of Tokyo."
"You're a liar!"
Miao Yin kept waving her hand, desperately trying to deny the brutal truth.
"You're a liar! You lie! You lie! You're a liar!"
"It's true."
Hearing the cold and heartless words of his master himself, Miao Yin turned his head to look at him in disbelief.
"Myaoyin, it's all true. It was I who helped to resurrect Equatorial Fast, and I still have a contract with him to this day. β
Miao Yin's eyes widened, and tears welled up in her eyes. Zhiyu opened his voice and shouted:
"Kaoru-sama!"
"What's the matter?"
Kaoru asked Zhiyu in a steady tone, and Zhiyu trembled while resisting the fear that his foothold might completely collapse, and asked an almost taboo question:
"Kaoru-sama...... Is Kaoru-sama really our Kaoru Kaoru-sama Kawahira?"
Everyone present waited with bated breath. I saw an infinitely gentle smile on Kaoru's face, and slowly shook his head:
"No, I'm not really Kaoru Kaoru Kawashiro."
This sentence brought an incalculable strong impact to this group of young girls.
Kaoru told the astonishing truth and stood quietly in the moonlight.
His figure looked soft and graceful, but the girls couldn't move at all, and they couldn't ask questions, so they could only stare at Kaoru with a smile on her face.
"I'm not really Kaoru Kaoru Kawasira, and I'm also teamed up with Equatorae."
Kaoru Kawahira silently spread out her hands, as if to express, "What are your plans?" The doctor frowned and tried to say something......
"But as far as I can hear, ......"
Kaoru shook her head at him apologetically, interrupting the doctor's speech. I saw that the girl in front of me was still stiff like a statue.
Gentle ......
Kaoru who is more respected than anyone else......
It has such an amazing secret.
He betrayed us?
He deceived us?
Complex emotions tightly cling to the heart of the Inugami Maiden - Neem, Rush, Miaoyin, Gokuya, Tianzong, Furano, Imari, Shashika, and Xueyi. and Zhiyu's eyes widened, unable to say a word, nor did they react.
Kaoru smiled again.
"I'm sorry, I've kept my mouth shut; I'm sorry I've been hiding it from you for so long. β
"For what?"
It was not easy for Neem to say this sentence in a hoarse voice, which was also a question that condensed the doubts of everyone present and summarized them.
"Why are you doing this?"
Kaoru, who was still smiling, shook her head.
"I'm sorry, I can't answer that question."
The amount of happy time accumulated in the past is as deep as the heartache is now suffering. Kaoru said again in a calm tone:
"Next, I'm going to fight against Equatorial Zhai and the Great Demon Fox. That's when things turn out. It can only be said that it is the arrangement of fate, right? I hope everyone can make a decision. β
He looked into everyone's eyes:
"I'm not going to say anything to you again, and I'm not going to say anything about it in the future. I, who have not informed you of this important matter, do not even feel that I am qualified to be your master. β
Kaoru continued in a calm tone. It's just that Zhiyu feels that Kaoru, who is smiling, looks like he's crying.
"But now I shamelessly consider myself to be your master. I cherish you very much. That's great...... Luckily, I can articulate what I feel. No matter how many times you want me to say itβNeem, Gojiuye, Tianzong, Furano, Imari, Shashika, Miaoyin, Lin Cao, Xueyi, and Xiao Zhiyu...... I cherish each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart. β
For some reason, Zhi Yu suddenly clearly understood one thing-
Kaoru is fighting someone with all her might, and she's risking her life......
"So I want you to make a decision. Are you still willing to fight with me...... Even if you are treated like this. Are you still willing to follow me? β
No one spoke.
The doctor's swaying figure disappeared into the darkness, as if Kaoru, who had suddenly lost his strength, smiled:
"Please think about it."
Zhi Yu thought absentmindedly-
Kaoru-sama was glad to see us go to Kai-sama's side, as well as the previous action of calling Keita-sama and Yang Xi-sama back to their home. Is it all about welcoming this moment?
"Kaoru-sama...... Did you plan to leave the rest to Lord Qi and Lord Yang Xi from the beginning......" (To be continued......
