[Thin Sakura Ghost] Tongqi

***The feeling of changing the name to Shinsengumi can only be expressed at a banquet~***

In August of the third year of Bunjiu, Mibu Ronshigumi was renamed Shinsengumi.

Senior Ishikawa, whom I haven't seen for a long time, attended the Roshigumi, oh no, it was the banquet of the Shinsengumi.In these days, I was a little overwhelmed by what I had experienced. I thought I could discuss some issues with him after the banquet, but he also looked extremely tired and lost a lot of weight.

Ishikawa's position is next to Director Kondo, far away from me, so I can only follow him with a glass of wine.He obviously sensed my gaze, raised his glass to congratulate me from a long distance, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Don't get drunk, idiot.While muttering in my heart, I also drank a glass. Not to mention anything else, I have indeed practiced a lot of alcohol. Speaking of it, at least I can hold back it better than Hijikata Toshizo.

I thought about looking in the direction of Hijikata Toshizo, he was sitting between Ishikawa-senpai and Yamanan Keisuke, holding a glass of wine, he didn't seem to have drunk much.

After staring at it for a while, Hijikata Toshisan suddenly turned his eyes to me and smiled slightly.I was dazed, and hurriedly lowered my eyes, twisting my fingers not knowing where to look.

"Short oil~" Xinpachi's sweet and greasy voice rang in my ears, I turned my head and gave him a look, this guy has been making fun of me recently, there is no limit at all.

Shinpachi waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't stare, don't stare, your eyes are going to pop out."

Hearing what Xinpachi said, I rolled my eyes angrily, pushed his wine glass to his mouth and forced him to drink it, and then picked up the wine pot to help him fill it up, "Here, three glasses of self-punishment .”

"It's strange, I obviously did a good thing." Xinba laughed and drank three cups at once, but he didn't forget to "redress his grievances", "Tong, you still don't understand my good intentions."

Forgive your good intentions, I twitched the corners of my mouth and smiled.

"By the way, Mr. Serizawa seems to be deserted there, should I call him?" Shinpachi suddenly remembered and shouted.

"Ryunosuke also..." Zuo Nosuke obviously cared more about Ibuki Ryunosuke.

I curled my lips, I really didn't want to see Serizawa Duck at all, but Miss Amei was there too, it was really deserted.

"Yeah, why haven't you seen Director Serizawa?" Senior Ishikawa's hearty voice came, "He's been famous these days."

Famous?I frowned and looked at Senior Ishikawa, and happened to meet his gaze. He blinked at me and then turned his head to gossip with Director Kondo. It seems that Serizawa Kamo's misdeeds have spread to Aizu Domain.

"I'll call Ryunosuke." The impatient Todo Heisuke stood up and walked out the door.

Before walking a few steps, Okita Souji's lazy voice sounded, "Ah, don't make up your own mind."

I leaned forward slightly and looked to the left. Mr. Okita was sitting cross-legged on the seat, looking out the door with his left hand on his chin, and his right hand was idly touching the rim of the wine cup along and backwards.

"But leave Ryunosuke there?" Fujido Heisuke muttered.

"I'll go." I stood up, turned my head and blinked at Souji Okita, he hooked his lips and turned his face away, I happily walked to Fujido Heisuke and pushed him back to his position, and said with a smile: " It's his business whether he gives me face or not."

"Wait." The one who stopped me was none other than Toshizo Hijikata.

"Is Hijikata-san going too?" I asked.

Hijikata Toishan nodded, got up from his seat, and followed me out the door.After leaving the banquet hall for some distance, I stopped and lowered my head and whispered, "I don't really intend to go."

"Oh? It didn't look like a lie at all just now."

Does this mean that I don't even blink when I tell nonsense?I looked up at him, "Shinpachi respects Serizawa-san very much, Hirasuke and Harada-san have a good relationship with Ibuki Ryunosuke, you can't tear your face in front of them, right?"

"It turns out that you still have so many small thoughts." Hijikata Suisan smiled, "I thought you didn't think about everything."

"I didn't." I muttered and walked back.

"Hello." Hijikata Toshizo called me, "Go ahead and tell me, you have a good relationship with that woman named Mei."

He noticed it, and I was startled. Could it be that he has some attributes like a stalker?Why do you know all this? I raised my eyebrows and stood where I was, and said in a daze, "Tufang Suisan..."

"Huh?" He frowned.

"You're not a pervert, are you?" I calmly confessed my thoughts, his eyes were unusually cold against Ben Zai's bright moonlight, but he still trembled a little when he heard the word pervert.

……

Under Hijikata Toshizo's "pretentious power", I finally gave in, and followed him to the door of Serizawa Kamo's room. I almost clasped my hands on the door, but heard a series of small groans from inside the room.

This... I blushed, turned around and ran into Hijikata Toshizo's arms.

Shouting to get up, Hijikata Toshizo's hand covered my mouth in an instant.Fortunately... I sighed and let him run wildly on tiptoe while holding my hand.

"call……"

After leaving Serizawa Kamo's house, I breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and saw Hijikata Toshizo staring at me with a half-smile.I squinted at him, why?I don't even want to understand it in seconds!But remembering that the two gentlemen in the room were Sister Amei and Serizawa Duck, I always feel a little headache.

"Isn't this a common thing between men and women? Why make a fuss about it."

"Yes, yes." I was perfunctory, but when I saw him approaching me, I suddenly became vigilant, "Hey, I didn't want to do those things!"

"is it?"

Hijikata Toshizo's breath was ambiguously by my ear, and it was hot and humid on my skin, accompanied by the breath, itching.This guy, I pushed him away angrily, "Really!"

Unexpectedly, Hijikata Toshizo laughed softly, "Interesting."

This guy was playing tricks on me, and I was immediately ashamed and annoyed, but strangely, there seemed to be a void in my heart.What, I shook my head not to think about it, and said angrily: "I'm going back to the banquet, you can stay here as well."

"Of course it is one answer." He replied.

Back at the banquet, I made up a lie that Serizawa Kamo had already fallen asleep drunk, but it wasn’t completely a lie. As for Ibuki Ryunosuke, I really didn’t see it.

Everyone nodded drunkenly, and continued to devote themselves to the fun. I was clinging to the wine cup and walked to Senior Ishikawa's side while everyone was in a mess, "How are you lately?"

"Not bad." Senior Ishikawa moved towards Isamu Kondo, leaving room for me. I glanced at Toshizo Hijikata on the left, and sat down anyway.

"You don't look all right," I whispered. "What's the trouble?"

"What else can I do? A lot of public jobs are enough for me. Don't talk about my business. You seem to have a good life." Senior Ishikawa smiled standardly, but I could still see the exhaustion on his face .

But he was wrong. I haven’t had a good time during this time. I pursed my lips and tried to make myself look calm, “It’s not that good. The knife you gave me came in handy. I… people."

I don't know why I told Senior Ishikawa this, is it to blame him for not giving me this knife?Or maybe I wanted to seek comfort from him, I couldn't figure it out myself, anyway, with the help of alcohol, I just said that.

Senior Ishikawa's chopsticks stopped in the air, and he looked at me with a lot of emotions that I couldn't understand. I tilted my head, hoping that he would say something.

"That's right." After a long pause, he said calmly.

that's all?I looked at him, was that just a reaction?I seemed to be relieved, and the pressure in my heart was relieved a lot. Those fears and anger seemed to be relieved in an instant, which was amazing.

"You should give it a name." Senior Ishikawa said with a smile.

"what?"

"That knife, I think it's better for you to choose the name yourself." He drank a glass of wine, "The knife that is put into emotion is the real knife with soul."

Although I didn't quite understand what Ishikawa-senpai meant, I nodded in agreement.
