[Thin Sakura Ghost] Tongqi

***The future of me and this country, which one do you choose? ***

Because Ryoma came in a hurry, there was no time to arrange a banquet, so Director Kondo invited him to a light meal.

Everyone talked and laughed, and Ryoma also talked about many interesting people and interesting things.It's just that I was thinking about how I should make a choice when facing Ryoma after I had agreed to Senior Ishikawa.

"Where's Ishikawa?" Isamu Kondo asked.

I looked around with the bowl in my hand, but I did not see Senior Ishikawa.As usual, since the death of Serizawa Kamo, Ishikawa-senpai has almost stayed in the Shinsengumi, and today should be no exception.Everyone seemed to be surprised, and after looking at each other several times, Keisuke Shannan said, "Mr. Ishikawa said he was unwell, and he wanted to rest indoors for a while."

"Are you feeling unwell?" I put down the bowl and chopsticks and wanted to ask him some tricky things, "Then I'll go and see him." I stood up and walked out, but Ryoma also followed, he smiled Talk to me, be your friend.

"No, you have to eat well." I pushed his back to force him to go back, and winked at the director by the way, "I'll be right back."

The room where Senior Ishikawa lives is very close to the room dedicated to the experiment, and because of the change of water, the team members are generally forbidden to approach it.Since Bian Ruo Shui's research can't be exposed to the world, then help me stop Ryoma, the director will definitely help.

Sure enough, the chief executive came forward with a wine glass and grabbed Ryoma's elbow, "Well, since it's a long time reunion, let's drink a few more glasses."

Ryoma was held back by the chief executive for a while, and he couldn't leave me alone. Taking advantage of this gap, I ran to the door of Ishikawa-senpai's room, but knocked on the door a few times, but no one responded.As soon as my heart opened, there was no one there, and there was no shadow of Senior Ishikawa.

Damn, drop the chain at this critical moment.I immediately turned around a few times, but I still couldn't find Mr. Ishikawa.Could it be in the room where the research changes like water?I looked to the left, but there was silence, and there seemed to be no one there.

"Tong."

"Ah!" I screamed, and when I turned around to see it was Ryoma, I quickly covered my mouth to suppress my exclamation.

"I just wanted to tell you something in private, but I didn't expect them to drink me all the time." Ryoma approached me, smiled and scratched his head, even a little shy.

"Hmm." I let go of my hand covering my mouth and said, "They usually like to drink and celebrate."

"Of course." Ryoma nodded in agreement, as if to say that the hero had the same opinion, "I came out to find you under the guise of going to the bathroom, and I wanted to ask about what was said in the last letter. Have you received it?"

"Got it." I lowered my head.

"Have you decided yet?"

"..." I sighed, and a thought flashed through my head, so strong, "Ryoma, would you like to leave with me? Well, I mean...leave Kyoto, leave the Naval Drilling Station, go to someone If you don’t know our place, live a good life?”

Such a selfish thought.Having said all this, I am a little ashamed to face myself.But because I want to protect Ryoma, the reason why I can't stay by his side is really hard to swallow. I reached out and grabbed Ryoma's arm, "How about it? Let go of everything now and start a new life."

I give up going back to modern times, and I can also give up my efforts so far, as long as you want.

"Would you like it?" I asked again anxiously.

Ryoma stared at me blankly, then suddenly grinned and ruffled my hair: "What are you talking about, Tong."

A biting cold came from the fingertips and pierced into the heart.I let go of his hand and asked, "You just think I'm joking?"

"Atong, I can't give up the Naval Drilling Institute, it's the hope of this country, I can't be so selfish."

"Without you, someone else will take over. It's not like the naval training center can't operate without you, Ryoma?" My head was buzzing, and I wanted to stop Ryoma from going in the direction he was going, " It’s not that you can’t do without you.”

I must have said something very bad or even vicious. The hearty smile that Ryoma had always carried disappeared at this moment. He stared at me with incomparable firmness in his eyes.

"Let's go together." I pleaded and took his hand again, shaking it lightly, "Go to a remote place, where there will be no disputes or fights, we will have a small house, and neighbors will live together." Very friendly. Maybe, one or two more kids, who will call you Daddy when they grow up. We'll grow old together..."

As soon as my body warmed up, the arms around my body became tight.Ryoma held me tightly in his arms and whispered in my ear: "There will be a day when this country becomes rich and powerful, I will bring you to Tosa, I will take you to meet my sister, and I will marry you Entering the door, our neighbors are all very kind people, and our children will grow up in an era where there is no such class as warriors and peasants."

It's not like that, I shook my head desperately, it's not like that.Ryoma, that's a deadly road, if you keep going there, you'll die.My vision was blurred, and warm tears continued to flow down my face. I buried my head in Ryoma's arms, weeping uncontrollably.

……

After venting, I nudged Ryoma's chest away from him, "You don't change your mind?"

"Marry you?" He smiled, "I won't change my mind."

My nose was sore and I almost cried again. I lowered my head and tried my best to suppress it, then raised my head with a smile, "No, it's about leaving as I said before."

Ryoma's smile froze, and then he bent the corner of his mouth: "This will not change."

"Then the previous one has to be changed." I smiled wryly, "You have kept the marriage contract with Zona from me all this time."

"Things are not what you think." Long Ma took a step forward, I stretched out my hand to stop him, and shook my head with a smile, "Just now I was too selfish, thinking about such a elopement. Now that I still want to continue Then go on, first, you have a marriage contract with Sana, and second, I am a team member of the Shinsengumi, and I don’t want to leave the team without authorization and be ordered to hara-kiri.” This joke is not funny at all, I muttered in my heart , The tears in the eyes began to spin again.

"Ryoma, we are still friends." I put my arms around his waist and patted his back, "Friends who support each other."

Ryoma stiffened his body, and after a long while, I felt his hand sticking to my back, and his tense body relaxed with a sigh: "If you think that way... I won't force you. "

I pretended to laugh, but my tears couldn't stop falling. I burrowed into Ryoma's arms, sniffing the sun and sea breeze on his body carefully. I don't know if there will be another chance to fall into his arms like this in the future.

The author has something to say:

Longma cares about the world, sigh

It’s the Chinese New Year, I wish you all the red envelopes to be soft~!
