Chapter 60: The Mission of the Barnyard Field

"Ah, I'm sorry, I've been chatting for so long, Aaron, you and Miss Al must have important things to say, so I won't bother you later."

Let people bring Takeya to Al's residence, and Yuji took the initiative to leave space for Takeya to talk with confidence, and by the way, he also branched out with Harumi.

Although Yuji's accommodation for Al is not luxurious, it is enough to show that he attaches great importance to it.

Tuk Tuk –

"Please come in."

Yuji had already arranged for someone to say hello in advance, so after Takeya got permission, he directly pushed open the door and entered, the room was divided into two rooms, inside and outside, and there were prepared tea sets and snacks outside, and Al was already waiting for him.

"It's great that you're back safely." Al's words were not perfunctory, and Takeya's ability to come back had already explained a lot of problems, but I saw that her expression was calm, thinking that it was the various powerful existences in Kyoto that brought her a certain sense of security.

"You look quite energetic, what about Sister Hong?" I didn't see Mei Hong's figure left and right, and Wu was also a little surprised.

"Miss Meihong's words have already left."

β€œ...... Is it? ”

Wu Ye's expression was slightly silent, although it was an expected answer for a long time, but when he really knew, he still couldn't hide the loss in his heart.

He knew that Meihong still had her own way to go, and he also knew that with her character, even if she moved out of a name that was not equal, she would never simply trust herself.

After reaching an agreement to send Al to Kyoto, she would definitely take the initiative to leave, but Wu didn't expect that she would go so fast and so simply.

couldn't help but let out a sigh, even Wu Ye himself didn't know whether the sadness in his heart at the moment was because of his resentment towards the future of Little Sister Hong as a master, or because of his sadness about Sister Hong's past as a friend.

"Let's go, anyway, that guy can take good care of himself alone, after all, it's been the case for so many years." No longer bothering about Mei Hong's departure, Wu also understands that he still has to focus on the present.

"You seem to have a good relationship, don't you? I heard that you are a friend of Miss Meihong's father? Al's expression was a little hesitant: "Lord Long, about Mei Hong's surname......"

"Just call me Aaron."

Wu Ye's expression darkened slightly, with Al's background, it was a matter of course to guess Mei Hong's identity, after all, it was impossible for Fujiwara to be a daimyo who was a member of the royal family in her previous life.

"Mei Hong is indeed surnamed Fujiwara, and her father is not right."

β€œ...... I know. Despite a simple affirmation, Al had guessed a lot of things.

Sister Hong, Fujiwara, not comparable, immortal medicine...... Kaguya-hime.

Regarding the mythical farce of two hundred years ago, as a member of the royal family, she has her own unique opinion, first of all, it is definitely not an illusory joke, it is something that really happened.

Although she was extremely curious about this in her heart, Archa's ability to read words and colors was not bad, and after seeing Mei Hong's appearance and Wu Ye's hesitation at this moment, she understood that there were too many secrets that were difficult to tell.

"Regarding this matter, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will personally ask Miss Meihong." Al said this, her meaning was clear, and she didn't want to delve into the matter anymore.

"Thank you." Takeya nodded silently, no matter what, Al's decision saved him from a lot of trouble.

"You're too humble, it's me who should say thank you," Al shook his head and offered tea and snacks, "If it weren't for your help, I might have died at the hands of youkai by now." ”

"It's just a gesture, don't be so polite."

"Originally, I was surprised why Lord Aaron would appear where you were, but now I finally understand, I didn't expect you to be Lord Xixing's guard."

There was only a sigh of surprise and a hint of subtle worry in Al's expression, but other than that, Wu also found no other emotions.

Takeya quietly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he was thinking too much, although Al may have known Yakumo Murasaki, but he didn't know the relationship between Yakumo Purple and Yuko.

Originally, he was still thinking about how to explain it, after all, the two sides were at war now, and Al was also human anyway.

Now it seems that he is too worried, and it is Al who should feel worried.

Takeshi is also the escort of the daughter of the west, and the westward line has been famous for retreating from the monsters for generations, not to mention anything else, the mere fact that Al can know the monster sage is enough proof of collaborating with the enemy.

It's just that Wu Ye didn't plan to do this: "Don't worry, Miss Al, didn't we agree?" If you don't ask me what I was going to do at the time, I'll forget what you told me. ”

"Lord Aaron......" Al showed a slight surprise, her expression changed several times, and finally smiled and lowered her head: "Really...... Thank you very much. ”

"No, no," Seeing Al so polite, Wu Ye waved his hand again and again: "I am usually taken care of by you, but I am embarrassed if you do this." ”

"In my care?" Al looked up blankly, puzzled.

"Uh-" Wu Ye, who understood that he had lost his words, hurriedly coughed twice and diverted the topic: "What is Miss Al going to do in the future?" ”

"On this point, I think that until the end of the war, we can only trouble Yuji-sama for the time being." Al's face was full of powerless bitterness.

As a human being who is powerless, Al has no strong armament, no extraordinary talent, no spells, and only the ability to remember, so it is indeed difficult for her to survive in the current environment.

"All the fields owned by the barnyard family are in the north, and when the monsters attacked, the clansmen scattered and fled for their lives, and all I could do was bring these compiled scrolls, and the rest ......."

Al revealed the frustrating reality that although these books are the most important thing to her, there are some hard currencies that cannot survive in human society, such as money.

"It's a bit of a hassle." Wu also scratched his hair in embarrassment, if it was something else, it would be okay, but when it came to money, he, who was messing around with Yuko every day, really didn't have any confidence at all.

"Can't you let Yuta, cough, let Yuji think of a way?"

"I'm so grateful that Yuji-sama was able to provide a place to live." Al shook his head and rejected Takeya's proposal, sighing and muttering to himself, "If you don't have income, it's really bad......"

"It's not easy for you, speaking of which, you should be the head of the barnyard family, right?"

"Yes...... How do you know? ”

"Guess," casually perfunctory, Wu Ye leaned on the table and held his cheeks with one hand: "Then you are really unlucky, the family property is in the north, and you are so troubled by monsters, you also need a lot of money to revive the barnyard family business, right?" It's going to be hard. ”

"Reviving the barnyard family? Why? ”

"Huh?" Aral's natural rhetorical question made Wu Ye stunned.

"That's fine," Al said in a surprising voice, "Although I am the head of the barnyard family, even the clan has already disappeared, and it doesn't matter if the family is or something, right?" ”

"You're really open-minded...... the corners of Wu Ye's mouth twitched slightly: "Then since that's the case, why do you still need money?" It shouldn't be a problem to stay in the store to help out and let Yuji feed and live for you, right? ”

"No, I still have something to do," Al's words said simply, but the determination in his eyes was unshakable: "You can give up your family business or anything at will, but your mission as the head of the family is still there." ”

"Mission?"

"Exactly," said Al, taking out the scroll that was placed at his side, and said solemnly, "The barnyard family, since Lord Ali, every head of the family has devoted themselves to its compilation, and Gensokyo Originβ€”this is my mission. ”

"I see......"

Wu Ye nodded knowingly, was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "Wait, Miss Al, where did you hear the name 'Gensokyo'?" ”
