Chapter 144: Confession (II)
After a squirming sound, Butterfly Chanae changed into a plain tarvian cotton coat, but it still couldn't hide her outstanding beauty.
She walked to the door with one foot deep and one foot shallow, straightened the paper door that Minoru Immortal had supported on her back, and snapped it into the door frame.
But the immortal Minoru Kawa stood still as if he was in place, without the slightest reaction, as if he was immersed in his own thoughts and couldn't extricate himself.
ββ¦β¦β
Butterfly Chanae thought that the Immortal River was so blushing that she didn't dare to turn her head because of what happened just now, but when she quietly moved to the side of the Immortal River, she found that-
It's not the face that's reddening, it's the eye sockets.
The latter was awakened by the sudden appearance of the butterfly Chane, looked at her in a bit of a panic, and then hurriedly went inside with the copper basin.
"I'm sorry, I'll fix the door for you in a moment."
Butterfly Shinobu was silent as he fled sideways.
She was familiar with the look in Immortal Chuan just now.
It reminded her of her father's eyes when she secretly went to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs when she was a child.
Both blame and guilt, but more distress and unbearable.
I can't bear to expose my beloved daughter to danger.
"He just saw ......"
Butterfly Chanae immediately knew the reason why Minoru Immortal Kawa would show that expression.
It's nothing more than that old scar.
There was a hint of old bitterness in my heart, and at the same time, there were some faint surprises.
However, considering the super-level twisted temper of the immortal Minoru Chuan, she did not open the topic about her new discovery, but followed his words.
"I didn't expect you to even work as a carpenter."
She smiled and complimented, "Allah, Mr. Immortal Chuan is really unexpected. β
"Because my father was an alcoholic, he used to break down the door of the house."
Immortal Kawa Minoru didn't look at her, but said to himself when he mentioned his most hated father, "If you cultivate more times, you will naturally learn it." β
He smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Judging from today's events, I am indeed his son...... It's a little unpleasant to think about. β
After that, he remembered the business he had come to here, and his speech became fragmented.
"Well, because that little girl is very busy, she may not be able to take care of you in a short time, so I thought about coming...... to help you with the medicine. β
He looked awkwardly to the side, only to notice the broken feather weaving and needlework that the butterfly ninja placed on the table.
The first thing I do when I come back is not to heal myself, but to mend my clothes?
This haori really has some special significance.
It was a bit of a surprise to him.
I really want to know the story behind it, but now may not be the time.
"Well, that'...... You wouldn't mind, would you? β
Butterfly Chanae looked at his picture of having to think about every word several times, and for the first time in his life, he didn't have empathy with the person opposite.
On the contrary, she thinks that this kind of immortal Minoru Kawa is as cute as her coquettish sister.
She wanted to laugh.
But the result of laughing out loud is probably that Immortal Chuan will never set foot in the butterfly house again, and maybe he will walk around the road when he sees her from a hundred meters away.
So she pinched her left arm with her right hand, and then she endured it.
"Of course not, it's just a little surprising."
"I was going to come by myself, but there are a lot of dead ends that are difficult to deal with."
She slowly walked to the opposite of the immortal Kawa Minoru and sat down first, bowing slightly, "Then I'll trouble you next." β
"No, no trouble."
Minoru Immortal sat down stiffly, reaching out to unscrew the lid of the ointment to hide her discomfort.
"It's also the first time I've given medicine to others, and if there's any problem, just tell me."
When there was only less than half a meter between the two, he slightly regretted why he had listened to Kuano Kuang's arrangement.
The heart in his chest was like a madman locked in a mental hospital, beating back and forth between his sternum and back.
Immortal Minoru didn't know at this time that if his heart beat a little faster and his body temperature was a little higher, he was afraid that he would have to open the markings.
When he was ready, Butterfly Chanae slightly bent the injured leg, facing up, the scarlet blood had already coagulated on the leggings, impacting the nose of the immortal Minoru Chuan.
She wanted to reach out and undo the metal buckle behind her, but Minoru Immortal stopped her.
"I'll do it anyway."
For the first time, his voice and movements are gentle and almost unlike his own.
After removing the leggings with a slight movement, he first skillfully cleaned the congealed blood stains on the surface of his skin with a piece of gauze dipped in hot water, unhurried and attentively distinguishing between the scars and blood stains, and thinning the terrifying dark red inch by inch with the gentle edge of the gauze, and finally disappeared without a trace.
During this period, both of them tacitly did not speak.
Immortal Kawa Minoru didn't have any thoughts, he just wanted to help her with medicine as soon as possible to reduce the pain, and even forgot the task assigned to him by Masashi Akino-
Find out what the relationship between Tomioka Yoshiyuki and Butterfly Chanae is.
And Butterfly Chanae kept staring at the movements of the other party's hands, but her eyes seemed to be looking deep, far away.
And just like that, after about ten minutes, Minoru Immortal finally completed the first step.
The horrible blood spots on Chana's legs had been cleaned up, and in a basin of hot water was a light red that spread rapidly like a cloud.
Although the pill cured the broken calf bone of the butterfly Chanae, the damaged muscles were still stiff and swollen. On the surface, this calf still needs a few days to reduce swelling and stasis.
Of course, one more pill can solve all problems, and it is far from such trouble.
But for the precious pills, the Ghost Slayer has clear instructions for use, and it can only be used in two cases.
1. Fatal injuries and serious injuries that cannot be cured by ordinary treatment methods.
2. The team members urgently need to recover and escape or fight the ghosts.
In addition to these two cases, the only way to do this is to use the healing methods of the past to combine time treatment to save the pills that can save the lives of the team members.
What's more, this regulation was drafted by Butterfly Chanae herself, and of course she had to lead by example.
Immortal Chuan dug out a piece of green ointment with a strong cinnamon smell with a small bamboo board, and whispered, "It's going to hurt a little bit next." β
But the next moment, he suddenly remembered that this was exactly what Butterfly Chanae would say when she drugged him before, and he always replied with a fearless sneer, and then resisted the desire to bare his teeth and scream.
Thinking of his past, Immortal Chuan's face turned red inexplicably.
However, Butterfly Chanae felt that the time had come.
Just the moment the cold ointment touched the skin, she suddenly asked, "Why do you want to come and help me with the medicine?" β
"Huh?"
Immortal Minoru Kawa's face froze, and the movements of his hands involuntarily stopped.
When he looked up, he noticed that although Butterfly Chanae was still smiling, she had a different feeling of trying to comfort the other person as usual.
She asked seriously this time, and she knew that Minoru Immortal had already heard her question, so she wasn't going to ask it a second time.
Immortal Minoru couldn't help but sink in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to habitually turn his gaze to the side.
At this time, the other party suddenly reached out and pressed the back of his hand to apply the medicine, preventing the shameful evasion.
"Did Kuang Jin call you?"
is worthy of being the smartest woman in the ghost killing team, and she immediately guessed eight or nine or ten.
She guessed very accurately, but there was a very obvious disappointment in her tone when she said it.
Immortal Minoru can feel this bad feeling as if her mood has taken a sudden turn without looking at her face.
At that moment, he noticed the right hand that was holding his wrist.
It looks a little smaller than his own hands, and the fingers are slender, but they are just as rough and thick to the touch.
It was the hand of a swordsman who, like him, had been trained for years and had endured all kinds of devastation.
In addition to that, it was this hand that saved hundreds of lives and tortured souls, including him?
Just as Butterfly Chanae thought she had received the right answer and was about to withdraw her hand, Minoru Immortal's left hand suddenly covered her with a ghostly gesture and held it tightly.
"AlthoughγAlthough there is part of the reason for that guy in it."
Immortal Kawa Minoru looked back with some difficulty, and met the somewhat surprised eyes of Butterfly Chane, and his expression was unconsciously a little more determined.
"But that's what I was going to do."
"I think you've been working hard all along, there are so many people in the Ghost Slayer Team that you need to take care of, and there are so many heavy tasks at night, but no one knows about your own troubles and hardships."
Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out the last sentence directly.
"So I want to do something for you too!"
After saying this, although he closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief as if relieved, he did not let go of the other party's hand.
Butterfly Chanae couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.
It was obviously a winter night, but the room where the door could not be closed was getting warmer and warmer, and both of them felt that they were on their bodies-
In particular, the skin above the neck is getting hotter and hotter, almost to the point where he can heat the fish soup for Yoshiyu Tomioka.
The silence that followed was unsettling.
When the immortal Kawa Minoru opened his eyes as if he was reborn, he found that the beautiful girl on the other side was in tears at some point.
"No, no, why are you crying?"
In a panic, he suddenly felt a little aggrieved, what the hell was going on.
I didn't say anything excessive.
Although he himself sounded stupid, it was worth laughing at best, what was the point of crying?
Should or should not......
Was it because of the sudden opening of the door before?
Immortal Chuan's heart became more and more chaotic, and the strong uneasiness was almost written on his face, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
At this moment, Butterfly Chanae suddenly burst into tears and laughed, which made him even more confused and inexplicable.
"You ......"
"I'm sorry, I just think what you just said sounds familiar."
Butterfly Chanae gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her index finger, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a beautiful arc.
"Don't you know, 'I want to do something for you too,' 'You've been working hard lately,' and the like, which are usually things that couples who have been married for many years say?"
Husband and wife?
What is she talking about?
Eh, eh?
Wait a minute!
The long-ago memories of the immortal Minoru are suddenly awakened.
He remembered an incident a few hours later.
It was a time when my father finally won a gamble, and he was in a very good mood, so he bought a hairpin for his mother on the way home.
The man was drunk, but he was delirious enough to say that to his mother.
"Why do you look incredulous...... Occasionally, an irresponsible man like me wants to do something for you......"
Since this kind of warm scene was very rare in the Immortal River's house, he also remembered it quite clearly.
But when I think about it this way, it turned out to be exactly what Butterfly Chanae said.
Those few sentences are indeed spoken between husbands and wives who have been together for many years.
Especially the kind of husband who feels indebted to his wife occasionally finds out of conscience.
Huh?
So, what exactly was I talking about?
Seeing that the immortal Minoru Chuan's eyes were straight all of a sudden, as if he had fallen into Tomioka-style self-isolation, and the dignified as a butterfly, Chanae couldn't help but laugh and tremble, and finally stopped the momentum.
"I'm sorry, because my father used to say that to my mother in the past, so it brought back some memories."
She first apologized to Immortal Chuan, and after a short silence, she asked a little slyly.
"Can I understand this sentence as your unique way of confession?"
"Huh?!"
Immortal Kawa Minoru was dumbfounded for a moment, obviously he was still laughing at me just now, why did the topic suddenly become a confession.
"Isn't it?"
Butterfly Chane's eyes looked like they were about to darken, "I'm sorry, it's my wishful thinking......"
"That's right."
Yoshiyuki Tomioka quickly interrupted her, "That's what you understand." β
"What do I mean?" Butterfly Chanae is still persecuting him, "But I want to know what you think......"
"Can you look me in the eye and say what's in your heart?"
"Oh, you're so annoying!"
Immortal Minoru suddenly yelled in annoyance, "That's what I like about you!" I want to be by your side more! β
"Now you're satisfied!"
The air fell silent again.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, he suddenly realized what he had just done, and a great surprise and panic overwhelmed his emotions at the same time.
To be honest, he thought that his vague feelings for Butterfly Chanae would be hidden for the rest of his life.
He had no idea when he would die in the ghost slaying, so he never had the luxury of anything other than "killing more ghosts".
Until recently, I have been brushing shoulders with death in person or watching friends brush shoulders with death one after another, and many deep-seated longings have poked their heads out.
As Masashi Isono said, the more dangerous the work, the more regrets should be left without regrets, rather than pretending to be dead while alive.
In addition, Genichiro is visibly fast and powerful with the naked eye, and finally makes Immortal Chuan see the possibility of defeating Onimai Tsuji.
After figuring out this joint, Minoru Kawa originally wanted to wait for the next year to help Butterfly Chanae survive the "death catastrophe" mentioned by the old woman, and then take the opportunity to explain his mind.
But Tomioka's sudden appearance drove him to figure out what was going on.
What he didn't expect was that he completed his confession like a matter of course (forced).
Something that was countless times more difficult in his heart than killing Shangxian suddenly came to a conclusion on its own.
Just as he wondered if the other party had the same intention, the barely installed door suddenly collapsed unexpectedly.
The two looked at each other in unison, only to find ......
Outside the fallen paper door, Butterfly Shinobi, who had a burden on his shoulder, was looking at them with a shocked expression, stretching out a finger and shaking.
"Me! I! I'm going to kill you! β
