"Speaking of which, the people who participated in the suppression mission this time were more or less affected by the ghost of B-1's dark fall." Akashi held his chin, "It seems that this has never happened before."

Sanriyue shook her head, took a sip of her tea, and said with a smile, "Probably...the experiences of B-1 Fusangshen made them somewhat empathize."

"...You mean, they thought of...the time when she wasn't around?"

Trinity was just silent.

Akashi leaned back and couldn't help sighing, "It's really troublesome."

Back in time not so long ago.

The cherry blossom tree, which symbolizes the spiritual power of the owner of Honmaru, began to weaken at some point, and now most of it has withered. The branches and leaves sway weakly with the wind, and the countless flowers and trees in Honmaru make a low sound like a child sobbing.

Honmaru was very quiet at night without the judge of the spirit.Most of the Daojian Fusangshen gather together according to their respective sword schools and their personal friendships, chatting, drinking, and exchanging lessons by lighting lamps.Although they are not human beings in name, but judging from the causes and results of their various emotions, they are similar to human beings in every way.I have to say, this is a very strange place.

"Mr. Tsurumaru?"

"Ah, it's Xiaoguang." Fu Sangshen, who hadn't had time to change out of his uniform, greeted him heartily, his eyes slid to his hands, and his golden eyes lit up: "This is a supper for me. ?"

After leaving Honmaru for a few days, he seemed to have lost some weight.

Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada nodded slightly, imitating his posture and sitting on the narrow corridor, pushing the plate full of dim sum in front of Tsurumaru Kuninaga.

"Seeing that the lights here are on, I wonder if Mr. Tsurumaru is back." He said, "Did today's expedition go well?"

"Nothing unexpected happened, it's boring." Tsurumaru casually took a piece of Daifuku, stuffed it into his mouth, and then frowned: "Well, it's so sweet—is this the taste that the master would like?"

He was startled.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, I forgot." Tsurumaru put down his hand and smiled nonchalantly: "She...is no longer here."

Seeing him like this, Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada sighed, and handed over what he had prepared for a long time to Tsurumaru Kuninaga.

"Mr. Tsurumaru, do you want to make a wish?" he asked.

Today is Qixi Festival in the old calendar.

In the first phase, Yizhen led the five tigers to retreat, and hung colorful strips of poetry paper on the newly transplanted green bamboo in the courtyard.

These strips of poetry paper are also called short books, and they come in five colors: green, red, yellow, white, and black.Since the Edo period, people will write their wishes on this kind of long strip of poetry paper on the day of Tanabata Festival, and then tie the written long strip of poetry paper to the bamboo branch, and wait until the next day to tie the bamboo branch with the bamboo branch. Put the poems and notes together in the river or the ocean, let them drift away, and pray that their wishes written on paper will come true one day.

Just this time...

"Brother Phase One."

In the first episode, I came back to my senses: "Huh?"

"Can our wishes really come true?" Wu Hutui, who was about to embark on the road of cultivation, showed a hesitant look on his face, "Will your lord come back after leaving us?"

"Yes." Yiqi Yizheng said the answer repeated countless times, "Isn't retreat going to practice soon? After you come back from practicing, the master will come back."

"But, why didn't the lord come to see me off?" Wuhu retreated and hugged the little tiger in his arms, "When Brother Hirano and Brother Yaoyan went to practice, the lord didn't come back... Obviously Jinjian left At that time, the lord sent him out of the torii all the way."

"..."

Yizheng warned himself not to show a sad expression in front of Wuhutui.

"Retire." He squatted down, put his hands on his younger brother's shoulders, and said solemnly: "The main hall is busy with a very important matter in this world, so although she misses you very much, she can't come back from this world in time. So, can you understand?"

The five tigers backed up and pursed their lips, tried hard to meet the gentle and firm gaze of their elder brother, and whispered: "But, if, if this is the case, then why did Brother Yiqi, Brother Hirano and Brother Yaoyan...will, will be here Put away your smile where everyone can't see it, what about being depressed?"

The dagger, which was surprisingly sensitive in some respects, looked sad as if he had already understood something.

"Brother Yiqi...you are all hiding it from us. Can you tell me if the master will not come back?"

"Make a wish?"

Tsurumaru's face looked pale in the moonlight.

"Make a wish... Do you want her to come back sooner? Since you have such a wish, why don't you stop her from the beginning and don't let her leave?"

"Because of Manyo Sakura." Candlestick Kiri replied: "Myriad Ye Sakura is weakening... We guess that there is something wrong with the main hall's body. At this time, if she is forced to stay in the main hall, it will bring her even greater harm. pressure."

Their master, Junxia Hoshino, on an ordinary night, announced the news of her imminent resignation to Touken Fusangshin such as Mikazuki Munekin, Kemaru, Omaru, Candekiri Mitsutada, and Ichiki Ishin.And before that, almost all Fusangshen had noticed the decline of the Manyo Sakura in Honmaru—especially the first batch of swords that made a contract with Junxia Hoshino.However, they all thought that this was only temporary, because Junxia Hoshino had this situation in the past due to the failure of the technique.

In addition, Junxia Hoshino has always been running outside recently, and when she came back, she hid in her room on the second floor and refused to go out. Even the breakfast, lunch and dinner were delivered to her room by the attendant that day— ——Fu Sangshen didn't have time to contact her at all.It was not easy to meet her, and as soon as she mentioned keywords such as "Manyozakura" and "spiritual power", she slapped her and fooled her.

And Tsurumaru Kuninaga, who is the most familiar and close to her, and who can even enter and leave her room at will, was sent by Hoshino Junxia to go on a long-distance expedition during that time.When he came back, he got the news that "the master is about to leave the job".

Thinking of this, Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada's gaze at Tsurumaru also became complicated.

Mr. Tsurumaru's personality has changed drastically during this period... Even Ishikirimaru and Taroden sensed that something was wrong, and they looked for opportunities to purify him every day. Is it because of this?

"Manyozakura... so what?"

Tsurumaru pushed the plate of dim sum aside, stood up, with an indifferent expression.

"If I had been in Honmaru at that time, no matter what... even if I chose Shenyin, I wouldn't let her go."

"Mr. Tsurumaru!" Candlestick frowned.

"..."

As if waking up, the obscurity in Tsurumaru's eyes suddenly dissipated, and the golden eyes regained their previous brilliance and clarity.

"Sorry, Xiaoguang." He pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly, and said, "I'm going back to rest first."

He took a few steps forward, then stopped suddenly, and said without looking back: "You can write the short book for me, just write whatever you want, but don't write something like 'I hope she comes back soon' gone."

Candlestick was stunned.

"In a few days." Tsurumaru said, "In a few days, I will go find her."
