I wanted to be a bad actor in the anime, but I failed.

Beneath the extinguished sea of ​​fire was a scorched earth.

Kotoko Iwanaga was confronting a stranger.

The man was wearing a conspicuous priest's attire, but the emptiness and boredom on his face were chilling.

This is a sinister person with neat wrinkles on his cheeks, perfectly revealing the word "darkness".

"who are you?"

"Haha, God of Wisdom, please control your ghosts. You can't approach this person."

"I am a god after all, is there anyone I can't approach?"

"If you're not afraid of death..."

The priest bent down and put his right hand into the dying fire.

Then, a scene that shocked Kotoko Iwanaga happened.

I saw that the flames were as docile as a cat seeing its owner, swaying gently on the palm of my hand and constantly changing into various beautiful shapes.

"He is a man favored by the true God. If you dare to interfere, as his servant, it is my duty to kill you!"

The cold words filled with murderous intent made Iwanaga Kotoko, who had never experienced such a bloody scene, tremble.

"like this......"

The priest said this in a strange way, and snapped his fingers. A fire snake flew away, just in time to swallow up the escaping captain of the agent.

“Aa ...

The scream did not last long before it was drowned out by a handful of ashes.

"hehe."

The corners of the priest's mouth curled up, as if he was enjoying killing his companion. He no longer paid any attention to Iwanaga Kotoko and slowly walked away.

Seeing him walking away, Iwanaga Kotoko, who was sweating coldly, hurried towards the sewer.

......

The remaining embers are also the obliteration of past glory.

If one day I fall into the abyss of death, that will be the day I rest in peace.

It is undeniable that my, your and His fates are rough, but we are also like singing strings.

however.

The spark could not accept the master's inevitable fate.

The starry sky at night will ignite the flickering flames on the ground again.

Escape.

Escape from all that is heavy, sing peace as the song, love as the melody, and sing the day of harmony.

This time you escaped certain death again.

The song of dreams envelopes the earth.

The unconscious knight opened his eyes with difficulty.

In the psychedelic distance, there was a high ground with countless rubbles, on which a priest was looking down at him.

I will play with you as a toy.

Pleasure is not what I want.

Just as a warning.

If you are still willing to hide as a coward, the victims in the future will no longer be people who have nothing to do with you.

But it is the thoughts involved in your delusions!

......

Old Mori Office.

The dying lights flickered on and off, as if sighing for the people in front of them.

"56 knife wounds, the left forearm was broken, the right hind arm was severely fractured, 3 ribs were broken, internal organs were dislocated, both feet..."

Hayasaka Ai checked the injuries of the unconscious Mu Lin with a pale face.

There is a kind of pain that hurts just by looking at it.

But the hideous wounds on Mu Lin's body exposed under the light made her scalp tingle!

She had never seen such serious injuries, not even on dead people!

According to her medical knowledge, this was an injury that could no longer be treated, but for some reason, she instinctively rushed over to stop the bleeding and bandage it as soon as possible with a pale head.

Perhaps it was because she had been saved by him before, so even though she was not moved by him, she still couldn't calm down inside.

Perhaps it was because during their short time together, he was the only person in this world who had seen her true face.

Maybe it was because he was able to do this to save Sister Yang Nai.

This person is really...

The indescribable emotion made Hayasaka Ai speechless. She held the warm and cold blood in her hand, and for the first time she felt a little confused by the bloody handsome face in front of her.

"Can he still be saved?"

As if she had forgotten that she had been hungry for three days and three nights, the weak Yukinoshita Haruno asked with dry tears.

"...Yes." Hayasaka Ai had to lie temporarily in view of Yukinoshita Haruno's fragile heart at the moment, "Sister Haruno, you should take a rest first, and we will talk about everything after your mother arrives!"

"Okay, okay... ahem."

Yukinoshita Haruno gulped down a glass of water with trembling hands. The rough action of drinking made her choke and almost faint, but she still tried her best to stay awake, holding Mu Lin's hand, and staying by his side.

After a while.

Xue's mother, who had not hesitated to use her connections to bribe the traffic police and drove to the Jiusen Office at a rate seriously exceeding the speed limit, pushed the door open with a serious expression on her face.

The professional medical staff behind her rushed forward and worked with Hayasaka Ai to control Mu Lin's injuries.

"Mother..."

Even though Yukinoshita Haruno had always been strong, when she saw her mother who had never failed in such a helpless situation, she found her backbone and showed an expression of devastation that she had never shown in her life.

Mother Xue also smiled like a loving mother for the first time, patted her head and said, "Don't worry, you should have a good rest first."

"I must, I must save him..."

"I guarantee with my personality that he will not die." Mother Xue's bright black eyes flashed with unparalleled determination as she looked at Mu Lin.

......

A month is not long but also not short.

But some girls are on the verge of collapse as there is still no news from the people they care about.

The complex world is like a flower, whose many petals depend on the center for survival.

If the heart of the flower withers, the petals will naturally fall back to the roots.

The wind of resurrection ruffles the ivory curtains.

The clean medical room was filled with the smell of disinfectant.

The boy who was worried about by many people finally woke up on the white hospital bed.

It was like a prince who had been sleeping for a long time and slowly opened his eyes.

There are IV drips in both hands.

On the left is a sedative to prevent the patient from going crazy due to pain while in a coma, and on the right is glucose to provide basic nutrition for survival.

The boy woke up for the first time after being seriously injured, and was very calm under the protection of sedatives.

The black eyes stared at the rhythmic dots calmly, falling into confusion.

"you're awake."

A mature woman's cry was heard nearby.

Turning around, I saw a beautiful woman in her late 40s with a wife's hairstyle and wearing a noble kimono.

She looks like a wife, but in fact she has never had sex.

And because of Mu Lin's help, she no longer needed her fake husband as a political shield and had long since driven him out of the family.

This person is the current person in charge of the Yukinoshita family, Mother Yuki.

Mu Lin said indifferently: "How long have I been unconscious?"

A frozen facial expression is one of the side effects of sedatives, but it also has a benefit.

It was just enough to cover up his desperate heart.

Others might think that the matter was over, but only he knew that such a grand disaster was just a warning.

It is a simple warning from the existence that is above everything to the ants it is watching.

"One month."

"It's been so long..."

"Your two girlfriends are very worried about you. Yang Nai temporarily comforted them by saying that you had to go back to China for important matters, but I'm sure they won't believe it so easily. After all, the incident happened too suddenly, and there weren't even any calls to report your safety every day. So you'd better call them now and comfort them."

As she spoke, Xue's mother, who was always noble and arrogant outside, stood up, helped Mu Lin up like a virtuous wife, sat him down on the head of the bed, and handed him the cell phone.

However, the indifferent Mu Lin put his phone aside and gestured with his chin: "Get me a glass of water."

The cold words had a commanding tone, and Xue's mother, who always gave orders to others, nodded obediently and said, "Okay."

She took the glass of water with the elegance of a Yamato Nadeshiko and personally helped the disabled Mu Lin drink it.

Even Kato Megumi couldn't match her gentle movements.

"Don't you want to call them?"

Mother Xue's eyes flickered as she pondered what the young man in front of her was thinking.

Wearing a hospital gown, leaning weakly on the bed, he looked at the birds on the branches outside the window with calm but heartbreaking eyes.

Under the gentle sunlight, he looked so sacred bathed in glory.

However, it is like the sacredness of old age, which is heartbreaking.

This is an incomparable charm that even Snow Mother is moved.

She was surprised how such an ordinary experience could give this boy such a temperament, and waited patiently for his answer.

But the other party said nothing and remained silent.

"Do you want Yukino or Haruno to accompany you?"

As an old woman in her 40s, Xue's mother found it difficult to find any common topics to chat with Mu Lin, so surprisingly, even though she wanted to stay a little longer, she still wanted to leave this encounter to her daughter out of inferiority.

However, the other party's next words made her pause as she was about to stand up.

"Just stay with me."

"......Um."

The patients and their caregivers interacted in silence.

It should have been an awkward situation, but it seemed so beautiful under the temperament revealed by the young man bathed in glory.

Xue's mother's anxious heart slowly calmed down, and before she knew it, she sat there relaxed, staring blankly at that perfect profile.

She didn't notice it in the past, but today, for some reason, this young man suddenly gave her a sense of intimacy, as if he were the same age as her, yet a sense of distance, as if he was much older than her.

An impulse emerged to stand up, hold him in my arms and sympathize with the pain hidden under his calm.

Xue's mother quickly calmed down and took the initiative to peel the apple with a knife.

But this time, she regretted why she had to control herself.

This was a heart-throb that she had never experienced in her 40 years of life, but this rare opportunity was destroyed by her reason.

if......

She then stepped forward and held him in her arms...

What will happen?

As soon as she thought of this, she showed an expression of disbelief.

Because she clearly realized that she was feeling the shyness that only a young girl should have.

She couldn't help but smile helplessly, peeled the apple, cut a small piece, and handed it to Mu Lin's mouth.

"Ok?"

Mu Lin frowned as his lips were touched by the cool apple pieces.

When he saw Snow Mother's hopeful eyes, he opened his mouth and ate it.

"Mother...your Majesty?"

At this moment, a surprised voice came from outside the door.

The beautiful girl with long black hair, wearing the JK school uniform of Sobu High School, was looking at everything that was happening in the infirmary with a look of surprise.

All this overturned her stubborn prejudice against her mother.

Also, a feeling of jealousy arises in my heart.

"Yukino, you're here."

As the highest authority in the family, Mother Xue was not at all panicked when her daughter discovered her predicament.

She slowly placed the apple and knife on the plate, stood up and said, "Mu Linjun, I happen to be busy too, so let Yukino take care of you."

"Ah."

After receiving the other party's answer, Yuki's mother bowed and walked out just like Yamato Nadeshiko said goodbye to her husband.

"Wait." Mu Lin stopped her.

"If you have any instructions, please tell me."

"Help me to complete the procedures for taking a leave of absence."

"...How long will it take?" Xue's mother asked cautiously.

“I won’t go to school anymore.”

"......" When these words came out, both the mother and daughter were stunned.

Yukino was about to ask something, but her mother spoke first: "I understand. I will go and get your leave of absence approved right away."

With her hands placed in front of her abdomen, she walked towards the infirmary with a dignified cat-like gait. But when she passed by Yukino, her mother suddenly said something indifferently that only Yukino could hear.

"Don't you even have basic manners at home now?"

Yukino, who was already afraid of her mother, trembled slightly when she heard the blaming words.

This was blaming her for not knocking when entering the infirmary.

Can......

She never expected that her mother would be here to take care of Mu Lin personally...

When she came to her senses, her mother had already walked away. After a brief moment of daze, she walked to Mu Lin in a trance, picked up the apple and the knife and continued feeding her mother.

She gently peeled off a piece and handed it to Mu Lin, staring at his chewing lips in a daze.

"Ahem." She coughed a few times to cover up her infatuation and Yukinoshita Yukino asked, "How are you recovering?"

"Fortunately."

"You are so lucky to be able to survive such a serious injury."

Yukinoshita Yukino complained.

"Where's your sister?"

"She's already recovered, she's just a little worried about you. Oh, you have to call Hui and the others..."

"Need not."

"Eh?"

"I'm tired."

Mu Lin refused to talk and lay on the bed, bathing in the light and looking out the window at the vitality of approaching summer.

"......it is good."

Rejected by the boy, Yukinoshita Yukino lowered her head in depression, unconsciously poking the apple with a knife. After a long silence, she murmured, "Um... I'm sorry."

......

"Harou! Sir Knight! Are you recovering well?"

Unlike the solemnity of Yuki's mother and the inferiority of Yukino, Yukinoshita Haruno walked up to Mu Lin very enthusiastically and asked him questions after arriving.

"Fortunately."

"Is your hand wound healed?"

"All right."

"What about the feet? What about the ribs? And..."

"Everything is fine."

"Then I'm relieved! My Lord Knight!"

"Don't call me that."

"Ah, what should I call you? Lord Mulin? My savior?"

Yukinoshita Haruno teased. Her series of questions made the quiet and peaceful infirmary lively. She also sat on the bed very openly, lifted the quilt and Mu Lin's clothes, and looked at the wounds on his skin.

She patted the scar affectionately and said:

"Yeah! There are only some ugly scars left! But it doesn't matter! It doesn't affect your appearance, but makes you more domineering!"

After tidying up Mu Lin's clothes, she suddenly leaned forward unreasonably, put her arms around Mu Lin's neck, and put her face against his to feel each other's warmth.

"Sister..." Yukinoshita Yukino on the side was shocked by Haruno's bold action.

But at this moment, her sister no longer had the heart to care about her.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed the hug she had longed for and then looked into those charming black eyes.

"So handsome!"

With an exclamation of praise, Yukinoshita Haruno grabbed Mu Lin's cheeks, who had not yet reacted, and offered her lips to him.

Lip to lip, the touch of softness and hardness, the collision of surprise and love!

All of a sudden, not only the person who was attacked, but also Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuki's mother who had just walked in were looking at Yangno's audacity in shock.
