As we all know, winding zero is a human being

"Ms. He Mao lied to me again... What a boring banquet."

"Hmm, Seimei is bored? Doesn't Zero like parties too—"

In this kind of social occasion where adults come and go, it is very common for two children to sneak out to play by themselves once they lose interest in those delicate and refined food, which is referred to as "can't eat enough".

As if they had found a reason, Master Yangzai and Seimei hit it off and decided to run away. After hearing the two children's choices, they looked at the owner of the obstetric house as if asking for help, but the other party just gave him a look.

He understood the look, which meant: That's great, then the two children will be taken care of by you.

……pill.

The autumn leaves that had just withered fell in the courtyard, and the red maple was burning bright red like a fire, so red that it scalded the eyes.

Ling picked up the maple leaf that fell right in front of his eyes, he twirled the leaf handle and twirled around, and a black figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Onikiri?" He recognized the samurai who was always taciturn, and he probably knew the samurai or one of Minamoto Yorimitsu's shikigami.

Even Genji's samurai did not have the gentian pattern engraved on the chest armor like him, and the Genji disciples in the mansion called him Minamoto Raimitsu's vicious dog.

He felt that Mr. Vicious Dog was much easier to get along with than his master.

"..." Onikiri didn't say what he came here for, but just thinking about it, even Young Master Youya could know that this was another person sent by the master to guard them. Abe Seimei under the faction, this behavior can also be called surveillance.

Away from the living room where the nobles push cups to cups, the courtyard where the sun has completely set can be called deserted. Guiqie doesn’t like to talk and Ling doesn’t want to talk to him. They sit under the tree and are clearly separated from the other two children. two worlds.

"The moon is bright but the stars are few. It seems that tomorrow will be a fine weather."

Not far from the line of sight of the two, they stood on the covered bridge. Young Master Yangzai was lying on the railing and throwing the petals he picked into the pond to feed the fish in the water. The red and white koi kissed the surface of the water lightly. The falling flowers touched a round of ripples.

Qingming familiarly discriminated the moonlight, counted the morning stars in the sky, and suddenly mentioned casually: "But the time when the starlight is so dim is not just tonight, so the adults in the Yinyang House who need to use the stars for divination probably have a lot of trouble." It's a headache."

He smiled and swallowed the second half of the sentence. The stars no longer twinkling in the sky is not just an ordinary celestial phenomenon. It seems to be a kind of human interference, and it seems to indicate an important event that is about to happen.

"Look, Seimei——that's it?"

The gurgling brook lingers in this courtyard, and the direction of the stream's water flow is the courtyard deeper in Genji's mansion. Yangya is very interested in the piece of cloth floating on the water like a corner of cloth.

He stretched out his hand to reach it, but he forgot that he tiptoed first to see the fishes under the covered bridge. When Zero hurriedly stood up, Young Master Yangzai had already fallen off the bridge amidst the sound of exclamation.

However, the incident of falling into the water did not happen. In the blink of an eye, Onikiri stepped on the railing of the vermilion covered bridge, holding the collar of Young Master Yangzai in his hand, and then jumped onto the bridge to greet the reckless Young Master Ann. It was safely placed on the flat ground.

"Thank you." Qingming thanked Gui earnestly, and calmly took Master Yangzai's hand, and put the corner of the fabric into his sleeve.

"?" Young Master Yangzai turned his head to look at his new friend, and said imitatively: "Thank you for your help, Genji's samurai-sama."

Onikiri still just nodded, speaking flatly: "It's a matter of duty."

The long-awaited Ling Zhanyuan did not miss this scene, he approached with restraint and straightened the messy collar of Young Master Yangzai, but when he looked up, he saw the expression of the child carefully looking at him.

Zero sighed, feeling that his state of mind seemed a little out of balance recently.

First, Onimai Tsuji's illness worsened, and then Genji's mess was involved. Unstable elements appeared in his single-line life, which made him really overly vigilant, so that he couldn't even do what he was doing right now.

...Really, at his age, he would still vent his anger on a child.

So embarrassing.

"It's my fault, Young Master Yangzai." Zero took a deep breath, and suddenly he gently picked up the child and let him sit on his neck.

"Wow - that's high! Zero!"

This kind of compensation can easily make the forgetful child forget about the previous small waves, and Zero responded to Master Yangzai's instructions and stayed away from Seimei and Onikiri on the covered bridge. Master Yangzai walked towards a hibiscus tree, and carefully supported him to pick the white hibiscus flowers on it.

Abe Seimei... As expected of the legendary son of the white fox, his acquaintance with Master Yangzai was sincere, but he noticed the disharmony in Genji's garden and wanted to interfere, so he couldn't let him go The Mibuyashiki family was dragged into the water together.

Is it okay, Abe Seimei has already taken the piece of cloth that seemed to be stained with blood from the hands of Young Master Yangzai and sealed it, Zero looked back at the two people who seemed to be talking on the covered bridge, He twitched the corners of his mouth to accompany Young Master Yangzai with peace of mind, and let the child secretly pin a beautiful white flower in his hair.

It's so strange, since he is a young onmyoji who seems harmless and has nothing to do with political affairs, Zero always thinks that Abe Seimei will pull out a hoe from somewhere, and with a hammer here and a mallet here, he will dig it away from Genji I don't know something.

Stop, stop, Zero thinks that he may be suffering from PTSD whose symptoms are called Minamoto Yorimitsu.

This should be his... illusion, right?

The whole banquet didn't dissipate until the third pole of the moon. Master Yangzai and Abe Seimei said goodbye to each other in front of Suzaku's gate. The young son of the white fox walked freely and freely, but compared with before, his clear blue eyes couldn't be seen. Concealed with a touch of dignity.

Minamoto Raimitsu did not appear again until the end of the banquet. He seemed to be very concerned about the crusade he had prepared. Rei also heard from other people's gossip that today's banquet was just a reason to gather related nobles together. Together, they secretly carried out the final division of interests in Genji's important place, and ordinary people could not participate.

Although Minamoto Yorimitsu's reason for supporting this crusade is too pure to be mixed with such a dirty design, but Zero has no time to think about him now.

Feeling guilty, he first ran to the small kitchen to boil hot water and took a shower. Zero saw the lights still on in the house of Oniwu Tsujimuseum. Know how to explain what happened today.

"Sakura Sakura, can I smell anything?"

"……what is this?"

"Uh, like a scent or something—"

"Hey... What a perverted question, Zero, where did you go this evening, are you afraid that Master Tsujiya will find out?"

Sakurano's direct questioning of the soul caused Ling to dawdle in front of Oniwu Tsuji Wuyou's house in a daze. He stretched out his head with a knife and retracted his head with a knife. He put his hand on the wooden door and heard Guiwu Tsuji Wuyou's emotion. The voice came from inside the house.

"Want to come back?"

…Wait, the script is wrong, this is wrong.

Although it is true that the yin and yang eccentricity is the true nature of Master Tsujiya on weekdays, but what is the meaning of this kind of wording-this feeling as if he is out to mess with women!

Zero didn't realize that there was something wrong with himself who would fluctuate so much because of Gui Wu Tsuji's words, so he poked his head in and took a look first.

It's good that the doctor isn't in the house, but it's not good that Master Tsujiya hasn't gone to bed yet.

Nowadays, the thin tatami mats in this period can't resist the tide seeping from the damp ground. With cold feet, I looked down at the brown water stains sprinkled on the ground. It took me half a beat to realize that it was upside down. Decoction.

"Master Tsujiya——you will take the medicine...?"

Oni Wu Tsuji Musan leaned on the soft bed, he was smiling, he rarely smiled like this, so much so that even Zero, who was used to seeing his uncertain weather, took a step back.

"You think I'm going to treat my body badly for such a small thing?"

"Too arrogant, Zero."

After approaching, he could indeed smell the bitter medicinal scent from his body, and Ling lowered his head to put the decorations in the house back in place.

The scrolls are messed up, and it was never Master Tsujiya's preference to arrange them according to the order drawn by the ink pen.

White pear wood tea sets should not be stored in a humid long box.

Why do inkstones and pen holders appear on the table for drinking tea and eating.

……

"Come and serve me to bed when you're done packing."

Guiwu Tsuji doesn't know why he can have different patience today. Maybe it's because he has learned how to polish the utensils that don't go well over the years. Even if the rein in his hand seems to be out of position, he still has this Ability to retighten it.

"Master Tsujiya, you...don't have anything else to ask?"

Ling Yiyan took off his clothes for him, and the dark thin undergarment patterned on the close-fitting skin was like broken porcelain, unable to resist the heat from his body.

With his waist empty, he quickly lowered his head and watched Onimai Tsuji unhing the black knife with a gold handle from his waist.

He obviously remembered to change his clothes and wash his hands, why did he just forget to take off the knife...?

"It seems that I did forget one thing."

The heavy metal strip pierced the window paper and threw a beautiful arc and landed in the wooden and stone courtyard. Guiwu Tsuji Wumi shook his hands and didn't know when he picked up the robe. It was an ordinary piece of clothing with Ubuyashiki's family crest embroidered on it, and the black cloth of red weaving covered the wisteria flower on the edge of the clothes.

The strong medicinal fragrance will not catch people like this, Ling grabbed the fabric covering his shoulders, turned his head and concentrated on sniffing.

A first-quarter moon hanging in the sky was reflected in the paper hole of the window with a hole in it. Guiwu Tsuji looked up at the moon while leaning on the window frame in ecstasy. The scene seemed a little penetrating and weird.

...but quite reassuring.

Zero knelt behind him on one knee, as if he was about to anticipate what was going to happen. The restlessness in his heart since the beginning of autumn seemed to have completely calmed down at this moment.

"Do you like the moonlight tonight?"

The clear moonlight poured into the room unreservedly, Zero nodded without thinking too much: "It's very beautiful."

Just like his cool and cold young master.

"So... the name Winding Zero, do you like it?"

"...!"

Onimai Tsuji Mumi threw off the clogs and foot bag, he walked barefoot on the tatami, and suddenly felt that it was not as cold as he imagined.

He gently held up Zero's face so that he could face himself squarely, happily finding the expression he wanted to see easily on his face.

His little servant may never have thought about what kind of mood he was dreaming of when he looked at his master.

Oni Wu Tsuji is never the only one who hates change. On this evening, Oni Wu Tsuji just called the other two to serve him. The little servant who came back showed the behavior like a vicious dog guarding the territory. .

But it doesn't matter.

Look.

The rope is already tied.
