[Ghost Haru] Shackles

Since the temple fair, the distance between the two has invisibly shortened a lot, and Kidomaru seems to have tacitly allowed Seimei to stand by his side.

But sometimes it's annoying.

Because Seimei really crossed the line.

As a descendant of Shura Oni, it is difficult for Kidomaru to restrain his killing nature for a long time. Sometimes he will stare at the birds outside for a long time, or the wild cats passing by occasionally, and even glance at his "classmates" inadvertently .

The bright red demon pattern loomed on his forehead, and the voice in his head was clamoring for him to release his nature, but he was not able to resist this huge temptation every time.

He admits that he prefers blood to sunshine.

But every time he wanted to release his nature, he would always be "inadvertently" interrupted by his little junior brother.

Sometimes it is a folding fan, and sometimes it is a plain white and slender hand.

Kidomaru managed to return the fire pressure back into his body, but the demon pattern was still printed on his forehead, luckily it was covered by bangs.His eyes fell on Qingming next to him, and his face was rather displeased.

"Brother." Qingming sighed, "Why don't you and I compete?"

It's better to compete with him than to let Kidomaru do things in private.

Saying that he closed the book in his hand, Shi Shiran looked at Kidomaru.

Kidomaru didn't expect him to say that, and didn't answer for a while, just staring at him condescendingly.

Seimei didn't deliberately lower the volume, and a few people around heard it, and they felt ecstasy in their hearts——Qingming's talent is outstanding, he has a deep knowledge of Onmyoji, and he is the favorite student of Teacher He Mao; on the other hand, Kidomaru has a weird personality If you never listen to lectures in class, then the result of this discussion is obvious.

With Qingming's character, the sparring is as far as it goes, but they are still vicious and dark, hoping that Qingming will strike harder.

Or...it's not impossible for them to secretly "help" Qingming.

The sparring was held during the lunch break, at He Mao's home training ground.

Qingming closed the folding fan in his hand, and habitually knocked on the other hand a few times.He looked at Kidomaru who was standing not far away, and made a "please" gesture to him.

The other party raised his lips, pressed one hand on his chest, and saluted him gracefully and slowly.

Pretty enough, but also ironic enough.

It can only be said that fortunately the one standing opposite him is Seimei.

"You first." Kidomaru raised his hand, his fingers were long and slender, and his skin was a kind of cold white that did not see the sun.

Seimei didn't evade any more, he held the talisman between his fingers, and tilted his head at Kidomaru with a smile.

Originally they thought that Kidomaru would not last for three rounds, but they didn't expect the two of them to go through more than ten moves back and forth.Haruaki obviously didn't use all his strength, but Kidomaru seemed to be able to handle it with ease, and even the smile on his face remained unchanged.

He slashed at the back of Qingming's neck with his palm, but the latter unexpectedly did not dodge.

Kidomaru's hand stopped abruptly a few millimeters away from his skin.

"Sunny?"

The person in front of him didn't answer, and a chuckle sounded from behind.Kidoumaru snorted, not unexpectedly seeing the formation under his feet.

Words and spirits.

"Senior brother, the avatar technique was taught by the teacher. You still have to listen to the lectures in class." Qingming raised his eyes and looked at Kidomaru with a smile.He tapped the chain on Kidomaru's wrist lightly with the folding fan, and in the next second, the formation disappeared, and the chain also turned into powder and disappeared.

"I won." Qingming looked at him with a smile, "According to what we said before... Brother, you can't go back on your word."

But it doesn't seem to be a big deal if they don't kill at will.

Anyway... yes, yes yes.

"Oh, and more." Qingming suddenly seemed to remember something, he pinned the folding fan to his waist, reached out and tied the red string around Kidomaru's neck with a bow.

Kidomaru: "..."

He was a little bit taken aback, and his face seemed to be a little bit at a loss, and the bow tie matched his handsome face, which was not out of harmony.The girls standing not far away couldn't help laughing.

Kidomaru like this... looks a little cute.

"What are you all doing here?"

Everyone was startled, and after looking at the person coming, they backed away to both sides, and saluted respectfully: "Teacher."

He Mao Zhongxing looked at the two people standing on the high platform: "What are you doing?"

"Discuss." Qingming replied.

He Maozhongxing glanced at the two of them sharply, and found that there was nothing wrong, so he was relieved: "Is it over? If it's over, come with me."

"What did the teacher tell you?"

"I'll go to Genji to study in a while."

"yourself?"

"No. It's with Mr. He Maoyixin. The teacher has other things."

Kidomaru casually picked a leaf from the side and bit it in his mouth: "Listen to learn? What, the teacher sent you to steal from Genji?"

Qingming glanced at him: "Brother, speak carefully."

"Okay." Kidomaru changed his words in a polite manner, "I heard that many people died recently under the jurisdiction of the Minamoto family."

"Yes." Qingming continued to look down at the books, "It is said that they were bitten to death by wild beasts."

Speaking of this, both of them agreed tacitly and did not continue.

Genji, as a family of onmyojis, has a philosophy that runs counter to most of the onmyojis, but at least it can be regarded as the same goal by different routes.The several families of onmyojis have always been friends, and it is quite normal to communicate and learn from each other.

But this time, it is obviously not only for exchange and learning.

"When are we going?" Kidomaru asked.

"Next spring... Brother, can you stop pulling, the leaves of the potted plants in my room are all bald by you."

Kidomaru's hands froze, but he still stubbornly pulled the leaf off.

"Look, it has fallen." He opened his eyes and said nonsense.

Seimei: "..."

I believe in your evil.

In the middle of May of the following year, Qingming and He Maoyi were only ready to leave.

The night before his departure, Kidomaru stayed in Seimei's room as usual.

He poured tea for himself familiarly, and sat quietly by the side to watch Qingming pack his things.

"Junior brother, my birthday will be in two months—" Kidomaru held his chin, dragging his voice deliberately.

The person packing up over there really stopped.

Qingming turned to look at him: "No, I clearly remember that your birthday is in autumn..."

Just halfway through the conversation, Qingming suddenly stopped talking, turned around very quickly and continued to pack things.

On the other hand, Kidomaru laughed. He got up and walked to Seimei, bent slightly to look at him: "You went to ask the teacher about my birthday?"

"No."

"Then - no." Kidoumaru blinked, "But what the teacher said was only the day I was adopted, of course my birthday was before that."

Qingming's hand movements suddenly slowed down, but he still didn't give him a look.

But Kidomaru knew he was listening, so he suppressed a smile and said a date slowly.

It was the day he and Qingming first met.

——He doesn't care about his own birthday. If he had to say it, the day when he first met Qingming was probably the day when he was reborn in the world.

"Two months, it's enough to come back." Kidomaru said, "No matter how long it takes, I don't guarantee that I won't do anything out of the ordinary."

Seimei looked at him helplessly.

The latter knew that he was compromising, so Kidomaru put his arms up and sat down on the table.He lowered his eyelashes to look at Qingming, his beautiful lips curled into an arc: "That's settled, Junior Brother."

Kidomaru really looks good when she smiles, from the pupils to the lips there is a demagogic taste.

After a while, Qingming let out a muffled "hmm".

"I'll bring you a gift." Qingming looked away, "Okay, come down quickly, you've crushed the clothes on my table..."
