The burning bonfire outlines the vague shadows of the woods, and the warm colors drive away the cold and darkness.Curled up in the chief's arms, Xi Ying's body gradually warmed up, she bit her lips, trying to say something, but couldn't.

On the contrary, seeing her hesitant to speak, the director general smiled faintly, "I said you, if you don't pay attention, you will disappear. Now, the battle is probably over. What are we here for?" ?A walk in the woods?"

"...Then let's go there quickly! Maybe we can catch up!" Xiying said and was about to stand up, but she was helplessly hugged by the chief executive, unable to move at all.

"It's impossible, it's so dark now, it's best if we don't get lost. Besides, the Shinsengumi probably lost..." At this point, the voice of the chief executive became quieter, as if he was very unwilling to accept this fact.

Xi Ying's expression also became sad. She knew the failure of the Shinsengumi from the very beginning, but she couldn't understand the mood of the general manager very well. That child, the Shinsengumi was more important than her own life. She Of course it is impossible to understand.It must be very sad.The question that has been lingering in my heart, why, why do I have to work so hard, why is it so important?But now, the question I want to ask more is——"Why did you come to me? If you keep going like that, you should be able to reach Mr. Kondo." If you meet Mr. Kondo, many things will become clear. better than now.

The chief executive sighed softly, and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was troubled, but also as if he was smiling. "I can't leave you alone here to fend for myself." After a moment of silence, he gave such an answer.

why not?For the most important Mr. Kondo, such a thing can be done.Even if you do, I won't blame you.This kind of words circled in my mind thousands of times, but I couldn't say it out, just like the question I couldn't ask all this time.I always feel that once I say it, something will change.

Once spoken, words cannot be taken back. Language is a sharp knife, and if used improperly, it can become a terrible weapon.Because of a mistake in one sentence, you may lose your lifelong best friend, and you may never see each other again once you pass by. In M15, the words of a spectacle kid are clearly imprinted in her heart. She knows the power of words best.

However, the things that need to be clarified must be clarified, otherwise, more things that should have the opportunity to be grasped will be missed, and it is the most stupid behavior to cover up lies with lies.Well, since existence itself is a great absurdity, it is better to make it clear.The end of the Shinsengumi is also approaching, and it is time to make a choice.

"Director, do you remember what you said? If I tell you about me, you will tell me about your past." Xi Ying raised her head and met the dark green eyes of the chief executive, the distance between the two of them was so close So close, you can almost feel the other person's breath.His cheeks were slightly red, but his eyes were firm.

"Oh, is this the time for 'everything is over'? What is it that is over?" The chief executive still had a casual tone, but he smiled reassuringly.

Xi Ying nodded solemnly, "It's time for me to end everything as soon as possible. Changes must be made. If you don't change, there will be no future." The child's jokes came from her mouth, But it can't be laughed at.Her intuition told the chief that everything she said was true.

"I once said to Mr. Shannan that I am a person who 'knows everything in this world'. From the time I came here, all my actions have been suspected by you. It seems inappropriate to use the word calm , but I know, you are all wondering why I always seem to know what will happen." With a self-deprecating smile, Xi Ying looked at the chief executive, only when she faced him, could she have the courage to put Tell the truth.

"I am a person from the future. Everything that happens now is just 'history' in the place where I live, and it is an established fact. So I know, know everything about you." Yu Sakura did not say the sentence "Your To me, the world is just a game." Perhaps in her heart, she no longer regards this place as a two-dimensional world.This is the real world where he lives.

"It's really surprising. I thought you heard something from Kazama. I didn't expect it to be like this." The chief executive showed a slightly surprised look, but he didn't doubt Xiying's words.It's absurd, outrageous statement, but there are no loopholes, and he believes that Xiying will not lie to him.She said that she came here has nothing to do with politics, but to cure her illness. No matter why she came here, she has already entered her heart. In that case, what does it matter? ?She really exists here now, in her arms.

The director subconsciously hugged Xiying a little tighter, "Director?" Xiying called his name, a little confused.The director didn't answer, but changed the topic, "Then, tell me about your world."

"...It's very different from now. It's a world of difference." Xiying was taken aback, then recalled the place where she had lived for 16 years, and smiled nostalgicly and peacefully, "You can't imagine that people can rely on machines to make a lot of things. Things, such as flying in the sky, such as only a few hours from Edo to Kyoto. No matter when and where people can chat with the people they want to contact at will. Facing a 'plastic box', you can know the whole Things in the world. It is because of this that I know that you still exist in this world."

"It's a magical world. There is no cruel war, no bloody killings. It is a world where children can play games with peace of mind. It is a world where people coexist peacefully. Maybe you will be angry if you say that , but in fact, it is all thanks to the reform movement that you have been doing your best to oppose. The world is developing, and we have no way to reverse its pace, let alone stagnate." That is the world I live in, It is a place that you can't imagine, like a peach blossom garden, something that is beyond reach now.

"Speaking of which, why on earth do you want to protect the shogunate, Chief? It's clearly at the end of the road..." Yu Sakura's expression changed from a gentle smile to a touch of worry.The general manager gently stroked her short hair, and also smiled, as if imagining such a beautiful world. "I'm just for Mr. Kondo, what happens to the shogunate has nothing to do with me."

As if telling someone else's story, the general manager said lightly, "I was born in a samurai family, and it was very hard because my parents died. My sister Guang brought me up. When I was 9 years old, I entered the Kondo’s dojo, because my sister got married and couldn’t take me with me all the time, so she left me there. At that time, I still believed that my sister would come back one day.”

It turned out that he was abandoned by his only family member, so did he always have such a childlike personality?I want to find the family affection that I have almost never had from others...

"At that time, the dojo was very poor, and I was often hungry. Mr. Kondo always shared his food with me. He was really a good man. He obviously didn't have much food. The older disciples liked to bully me. At that time, I Weak, you can only be beaten by them, and you can't even protect yourself."

Xi Ying couldn't imagine the past of the general manager, whether it was in the game or in history, she never knew that such a thing had happened.In her impression, the chief executive is always strong and a bit dark.But in fact, maybe he really is just a little kid who needs someone else to take care of him.He too had been so unfortunate.

"Mr. Kondo helped me, but he couldn't cure me at all. I had to become stronger. In order to survive, I became a strong person. Just when I was about to kill those who bullied me, Mr. Kondo appeared and stopped me. From a very early age, everyone around me said that I was an abandoned child and a weak child. Only Mr. Kondo has been comforting and encouraging me. Later I got heat rash, even the doctor Everyone said it was hopeless, but Mr. Kondo still took care of me without giving up. It really got better."

Is it because of this that the root cause of the disease will fall?So that he suffered from that incurable disease.Xi Ying felt her heart ached as if being twisted.Being bullied by others and abandoned by her family, Xiying couldn't understand such feelings at all. Huahua, who had lived in a greenhouse since she was a child, didn't understand the feeling of cold.But no matter how you think about it, it is very, very painful.If it was her, she didn't know if she could persist in living.

For some reason, tears slid down her cheeks and couldn't stop dripping down. The chief executive looked at the crying girl in his arms, and wiped away the tears for her helplessly, "You are obviously telling my story, why are you crying? Woolen cloth?"

"I never knew, no one told me that your past was like this... I always thought that people who can smile all the time must be very happy..." In fact, a smile is the best lie in the world .

Yuzakura has fully understood how important Mr. Kondo is to the head office.That was the first person he felt he could trust, a belief he would never betray.

"I'm very happy. I'm already very happy to be able to stand beside Mr. Kondo." As if comforting Yuzakura, the chief executive said such words in a very light tone, which made people feel inexplicably distressed. "This sword is wielded for Mr. Kondo, and I exist for Mr. Kondo."

"So, it's all about protecting Mr. Kondo?"

"Without Mr. Kondo, I would not be able to live to this day. For Mr. Kondo, even if I become the sword of the Shinsengumi, I will not hesitate, but Mr. Kondo does not understand my heart. All he thinks about is ambition, only Ideal, how painful it is for me. I don't have any ambitions, I just want to swing the sword for Mr. Kondo. My sword is just a tool for killing people, and I am just a beast-like existence. But Mr. Kondo has always believed that I have a beautiful heart. I have never had a beautiful heart. No matter how hard I try, Mr. Kondo can’t see it through.”

"You really aren't afraid of killing people?" The chief executive in the PM once said that he was the son of a ghost, and the man in front of him had already had the consciousness of becoming a ghost.Xi Ying drooped her eyes, the chief's heartfelt affection, just trying to think about it, she already felt that she was about to be unable to breathe.

"There are more terrible things in the world than killing people." The chief executive's response was unusually calm, so calm that it seemed to extend to the distant horizon, the untouchable shore of nothingness.

There are more terrible things in the world than killing people.If it is to protect your most important thing.Even with blood on your hands, you will never regret it.

"Director. Hurry up and find Mr. Kondo! He's in danger!"

Even if I am drowned by the torrent of fate, I will never recover, even if I hinder the development of the times and become a sinner of history.I want to protect the person whom the chief executive believes in well.Can't make him sad anymore.
