Sword Raiders II

Tea, the entrance is warm and fragrant.It may be slightly bitter at first, but later it will return to sweetness in the mouth, which is light and calming.

Yingwan has always liked this kind of taste, tea is the same as him, the same is gradually precipitated from the ancient past in the long time, peaceful and long.

It would be great if it is accompanied by the warm sunshine outside and a plate of delicious snacks.

Apart from tea and Dabaoping, Yingwan never felt that she lacked anything.

But now the intermittent broken memories tell him that perhaps, he still lacks a cat in his lap.

The fluffy feel is very warm to the touch, and the weight is almost negligible when lying on the crook of the arm, but the secret satisfaction and joy when hugged in the arms directly flowed from the memory to the bottom of my heart.

Had he lost such a memory?

The sun is long, changing the sky from azure blue to scorching red all the way, and taking away all the colors in the process of pulling away.

Before the sky turned dark, Yingwan finally walked out of the room, his expression was the same as usual, only the flashing eyes from time to time proved the unrest in his heart.

When he was going to the main living room, he ran into Yiqi Yizhen who had just left the room. The other party pursed his lips, with complicated emotions changing on his face from time to time, but these reactions quickly subsided after discovering him.

The two blades looked at each other, although they didn't say anything, they read the same message from each other's eyes.

As a result, a bit of embarrassment appeared on Yiqi's face, and the corners of Yingwan's lips curled up slightly. The two sides nodded at each other, and walked side by side in a tacit understanding.

"It seems that you have remembered a lot." Bird Taidao spoke first.

"Yes." The first phase admitted frankly, "The Yingwan Hall should be the same." The breath on his body was soft and calm, and the obscure thoughts that Chang Yi had specially pointed out before were much lighter at this time. No one can believe the memory effect.

Stepping into the main living room together, I saw the other three blades sitting in it.

Ninto Wuyue Yue was sitting in one corner with a pen and paper, and was writing or drawing something. On the other side, Yamabukiri Nagayoshi was carefully watching the news channel on the TV with the remote control, and from time to time he turned sideways to the candlestick, Mitsutada, and asked in a low voice. , this kind of style can tell at a glance that it is inquiring about current events and then comparing the current situation with the history in the mind.

It's really a rigorous and serious civil servant. It would be great if he could be so calm when dealing with Yamabuchi Kunikiro.

Unconsciously, Yiqi and Yingmaru, who had recovered part of the memory of this world, were thinking in their hearts at the same time.

At this moment, the TV news jumped, and the main character appeared on the screen. She was in a press conference, shaking hands with a high-ranking male authority in front of the camera.

[From our station, at [-]:[-] p.m. today, Akashi Seitomo, chairman of the Akashi Foundation, and Ikuri Hoshimiya, founder of the Star Palace Museum, officially reached a public welfare project on the control and prevention of marine pollution in the Sea of ​​Japan...]

The voice of the host on TV is endless, but the attention of the swordsmen watching TV is different.

"Has the timeline reached this far?" Chang Yi bowed his head and said to himself, "The tentacles of public welfare undertakings in the Xinggong Pavilion have gradually radiated from women and children's charity to environmental protection...So it started so early..."

"As expected of the main hall, rich and powerful..." The face of the first phase was full of sighs, "Indeed, the Xinggong Pavilion in history has never been short of money from the very beginning."

"Well, I heard from my lord that she has been blessed by Ebisu, the God of Wealth, from the very beginning, and any business ventures will be smooth sailing with her." Candlestick Chee nodded and continued, "It is no wonder that someone who will never worry about money in his life should start a business." Public welfare is also relentless, and he has accumulated such a huge reputation when he passed away."

Yingmaru blinked and didn't speak, he just found a place nearby and sat down casually, and when he poured himself a cup of tea, he heard Ninja knife's speech.

"Mutsu Mamoru, it's really inconspicuous inside." Wuyue Yujiang, who heard the owner's name and started paying attention to the news, only stared at a black-clothed bodyguard in the corner of the screen, but his eyes were bright when he commented like this. , "Is this the appearance after being cast with the ignore spell? It is quite conducive to stealth and assassination."

"It's just useful to humans." Changyi said at this time, "If it's a creature from the other world, if it doesn't hide deliberately, it will be discovered soon."

This is true, Wu Yueyu nodded approvingly, her eyes accidentally fell on Yingwan who was nearby, and she subconsciously asked: "Do you have a lot of things to sort out? Why did you come here until now?"

Although he was also a member of the Knife Team, he came too late. Apart from feeling a little different about the Knife Room when he was browsing the mansion, he didn't have much of the same feelings as Yamabukiri Nagayoshi from the Political Sword Team next to him.

During this period, they also collected information about the entire house, and under the leadership of Candlestick Kiri, they completed the new house move-in other words, it was too late, and both Honmaru and this world are treated as newcomers.

Because of ample time, Wu Yueyu and Changyi even helped Candlestick cut and plan and arrange the rooms of other "newcomers", and like everyone else, put a corresponding knife pattern on the door, even if it marked which sword man this is the real dormitory lived.

After finishing so many things, Yingmaru and Yiqi Yizhen stayed in the house from dawn to dark during this period. Although the weather is cold now, it is a bit strange not to come out all the time.

"Well, there are quite a lot of things." Yingwan nodded directly, "I occasionally remembered how to use them when I was packing, so it took me a little more time to re-acquaint myself with it."

This reason is quite sufficient and true, but the important thing is avoided, so that the first issue who is still considering the rhetoric can only nod.

Newcomer Wu Yueyu didn't doubt that he was there, so he just believed it, and then continued to draw his house's defense map—even though he heard that the master had superimposed many defensive enchantments in the house, Wu Yueyu felt that the protection against ordinary people in this world is also indispensable. This house is full of flaws for him.

Changyi in front of the TV was still paying attention to the news, and he was noncommittal to Yingwan's reply, as if he didn't notice it at all.

Candlestick who was sitting next to him took a look at him, as a distant relative, Tachi could tell at a glance that Tachi had listened to what he said, but he also heard that Yingmaru's reservation was not believed at all, so he couldn't help but smiled silently.

He doesn't have any opinion on Mr. Changyi, and is more confident that Mr. Changyi is a good help to the guild, but he can't stand it. There are many blades in the Tibetan knife group who are vigilant against him, like Mr. Hasebe and Izumi Shou It's okay for Qingguang and the others to be like this, but even the notoriously quiet Akashi-kun and even Xiao Jialuo said so...

In a sense, Lord Changyi's threat level is quite high.

"It's winter now, and it's normal for the sky to get dark quickly." He stood up and brought up the subject lightly, "My lord called before and said he would be back on time today. Is there anyone willing to go to the kitchen with me?"

Candlestick Cutting had calculated the time to cook, and when all the meals had just been prepared, the master who had been out for a day at the entrance and the initial knife were already taking off their shoes.

Just as the swordsmen were about to greet them, Mutsu Shoubi gave a "shh", who is their master talking on the phone right now.

"Yes, Mom. I will definitely come back this first month of this year....Let Shingo not be awkward, I don't want to be so busy....I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sister, I didn't mean to break my promise! Otherwise, on Christmas day How about I give you a basketball signed by an NBA star?"

She was still wearing the capable lady's suit in the news, but her eyebrows and eyes were not at all mature and dignified at that time, but rather childish and soft.

It's completely different from the awe-inspiring and calm man who controls dozens of swords in Honmaru. His words and deeds are like a little girl that he has never seen before, and he is playing tricks on his blood relatives at this time.

"Mom, my brother is bullying me, please take care of me!...It's almost the same....Hey, do you order Osechi Cuisine? I want it! I want it! I want to eat the shrimp rolls made by my mother, kelp eggs, and sweet black beans , herring roe, and, and...I haven't finished ordering yet, I'm not allowed to interrupt!"

This phone call went from the entrance to the living room and sat down for a while before hanging up. When Yu Li, who was getting carried away with the chat, put down the phone with a satisfied face, she saw several faces staring blankly at her.

The air suddenly became quiet.

Realizing that he had just spoiled his mother in front of his subordinates, Yu Li said, "..."

After a short period of shock, the frozen smiling face gradually disappeared, and then uncontrollably began to flush red and panic.

"Cough!" She lowered her head and coughed, and when she raised her head again, she changed into a serious face that was forced to be calm, with a murderous look in her eyes: "What are you doing? Is there anything strange about me contacting my family?"

Looking at the threatening gaze that almost clearly said "whoever dares to laugh will die", all the blades at the scene shook their heads very understandingly.

"My lord, the dinner is ready, should I set it up now or later?" Candlestick Qie Guangzhong immediately handed out the steps.

"Let's set the meal." Of course Yu Li caught it immediately, "I'm going to change clothes." After she finished speaking, she turned and left.

Watching the embarrassing figure who left at a significantly faster speed and gradually lowered his head to hide his face in the process, quickly disappeared around the corner, he couldn't help laughing in a low voice with the edge of the sword left in place.

The master who acts like a spoiled child to his mother and bullies his younger brother from time to time, and the way his subordinates bump into him and forcibly withdraws his respect, and finally runs away, no matter how you look at it...it's so cute.

It is a superb view that you will never see if you don't come to this world.

"Hey haha, the master really wants to be more lively and comfortable in this world!" Mutsumori, who has been running with the master for a day, sighed with a smile, "We hope she can do the same in Honmaru in the future. Although being a commander requires majesty , but it’s tiring to always put on airs.”

"So, we have to work harder to become stronger, and help her take off some of the burden." When the meal was served on the table, Candlestick looked at his colleagues with a smile, "First of all, don't bully her, or you will be responsible for the consequences if you blow up .”

All the swords and swords at the scene understood what these words meant, so the suppressed laughter appeared again.

Yu Li didn't expect that when he was about to enter the house, he would talk for so long when he received the call from Tokyo. When he got through, he received a complaint from his younger brother Shingo, and then his mother carefully and nervously asked her about whether she would return in the first month.

It's not surprising that my mother has such a depressed mood. In fact, she hasn't been back since the battle of the magician in the name of being busy, and her mental state during that time has no way for her to go back. Yu Li doesn't know In that mood, I saw whether my mother would completely collapse under the instinct of dependence, causing more uncontrollable consequences, so I just used the phone to contact.

It's not that my mother didn't want to come here in person during this period, but she persuaded her to stop, and the horror of being tied to an isolated island by a strongman also made her realize that not everything can be intervened at will. With this call urging her to go home.

There is one more secret from the other world hidden from her mother, and Yu Li is also very guilty, so she can only make up to her after everything is resolved.

"Hmph, it's all dad's fault!"

In the end, he threw a pot at his father who was far away in the soul world, and Yu Li, who had changed into home clothes, calmed down and went downstairs.

In the restaurant downstairs, everyone was already seated and waiting for her to come over for dinner.

A total of seven people had a meal together, and the size of the canteen in Honmaru had shrunk several times, but it was still lively.

"Today, the master not only held a press conference with the Akashi Foundation, we also went to the Suzuki Foundation in the morning, and the chairman there also agreed to lease their airship to the Xinggong Pavilion..."

Holding his job bowl in his hand, Mutsu Mori talked about what he had seen and heard during the day, his eyes were full of curiosity and longing for all kinds of novelty.

"Oh, when I went to the future era of depolarization practice, I wanted to read all of them, but many of them required various complicated procedures to get in. Don't even think about it if you don't have access. Now it's all right, there is a master In, at least in this era, I can see many things that I can't see!"

"If it doesn't involve military supplies, I can indeed make your dream come true." Yu Li responded directly, "When the restrictions on the pill are completely lifted, I plan to buy a helicopter in the future, and then you can learn to be a pilot. As for those cannons Don’t think about warships or anything else, I really have no way.” You know, there is no decent army in the entire Dongying Kingdom, only the Self-Defense Force.

"Oh! Private jet!" Mutsu Mori's eyes were so bright that he could recharge a light bulb, "Master, you are so kind to us!"

"Yeah, yeah." Yingwan listened to the conversation and shook her head helplessly, "Is this the love for the original knife? It's really a big deal."

Immediately, I received a blank stare from the owner: "It seems that the jade dew and tea utensils I usually give you are missing! Next time, I will make it up for Dabao."

"That's a waste, give it to me."

Waiting for the blade in the first phase couldn't help lowering her head, she was amused and at the same time really felt the difference of the master in this world, so she was closer to the image in the dream fragments.

Can it be changed back?

At least now, they somewhat see a little hope.

"By the way, after dinner, you guys will do a lottery activity to determine the order of the next six days, and I won't arrange for you in person." Yu Li said at this time, and continued after getting the candlestick to cut their promise. Said, "The festive atmosphere will be very strong this week. Have you thought about where to go shopping? The card I gave you is a special card that can be used in both this world and hell. If you feel bored staying in the house, go out and go shopping. .May, and Changyi, your card will be ready tomorrow without any accidents, and I will ask Candlestick to accompany you to hell to get it."

Wu Yueyu responded without any objection, but Yamabukiri Changyi, who had been eating quietly all this time, raised his head in surprise: "Do I have it too?"

I got an affirmative answer: "Of course. They all promised to bring you to this world, and of course you have everything you should have."

After thanking him with the knife, he didn't speak again. He lowered his head and continued to eat. It seemed that everything was normal, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised.

The dinner gradually came to an end amidst the chat, the table was cleared, and the lottery activity was about to begin.

With the dream memory as the background, the swordsmen are not surprised at all that the master is afraid of trouble and directly draws lots. They cut the paper neatly and wrote a few Chinese characters from one to six, and then rolled them into lottery sticks of the same size for everyone Choose one each.

Candlestick cut: "I am number two."

Wu Yueyu: "Number six."

"I am One." Phase One held up the flattened note in his hand, and then looked at the others.

Mutsu Mori got No. [-], and Nagayoshi was holding No. [-] in his hand.

In this way, there is no suspense in the final Yingwan: "Number four." Tachi raised his eyebrows at the note, "According to the preferences and habits of Dongying people, this is not an auspicious number."

"Then you are wrong, Mr. Umaru." This time it was Candlestick Kiri who spoke, and he looked helplessly at his lottery slip, "Didn't you notice? Oh, it just so happens to be Christmas."

And on Christmas night, if the lord is not busy, she will take the valet of that day to the concert.

The author has something to say:
