fictional spring

Guiwu Tsuji Wucan never imagined that he would see her name in this kind of place.

At his feet lay a messy corpse, messy blood-colored footprints scattered on the wooden floor, everywhere was turned upside down, and it was almost impossible to find anything of value... What needs to be explained is that this is not Ghost Mai Tsuji Miserable handwriting.

It was only because he smelled too strong a bloody smell on the road that he followed the smell to the mansion here, and picked up the letter from the master from the pile of scattered papers in the study.

And from the letter, Onimai Tsuji learned that his friend who he met when he was young and who is now serving as the governor of Nanmachi has a daughter named Gen Mutsuki.

The words that were just mentioned in the letter made Onimai Tsuji's pupils shrink when his eyes touched it, and he stared at those words tightly for a long time in silence.

It has been too long since the last time they met.

But Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi still couldn't forget her, even though they had hated each other in the past and never died.

But now...

Onimai Tsuji put the letter in his arms, and when he sensed that someone was approaching, he pretended to be the age of the family's dead youngest son, and asked his subordinate ghosts to rush over the corpse. After disposing of it, he condescended and hid under the veranda.

It was very clear that if he didn't want to make any mistakes, he should change his appearance into that child's appearance-this level of mimicry couldn't be easier for Onimai Tsuji.

But he didn't do that, instead, he shrunk himself down to his eleven or twelve-year-old appearance like a ghost.

Because he had never seen the youngest son of the Transanabe family before, it was logical for Minamachi Mahogyuki who came to Watanabe's house to regard him as Watanabe Kiyonao and brought him back to the Minabe family.

On that night, Onimai Tsuji saw her for a long time.

Guiwu Tsuji suddenly remembered their first meeting in the true sense, in the long past, when he was still a human being, their first meeting - he was also at the same age at that time.

But Mutsuki Hime at that time was completely opposite to the age difference between them now - at that time, she was much younger than she is now.

He actually wanted to look at her more, to see what she looked like now, but when his eyes touched that face, he seemed to be stabbed by something, he just looked at her for a few seconds and then lowered his head.

And her reaction was extremely cold.

Guiwu Tsuji Wumi himself can't tell what his mood is at this time, complicated and tangled, wanting to be close and wanting to stay away - her alienated and indifferent performance will make him unhappy, but if she is like her father when she first met Likewise, being nice to him because of his fake identity background would make him feel uncomfortable.

The only thing to be thankful for is probably that her father placed his room near Genmutsuki's room.

Leaving aside whether such an arrangement is inappropriate or not, from Oniwu Tsuji's own point of view, he didn't know how much effort he had spent to control his trembling hands when he saw her.

He has personally...

Gui Wu Tsuji would use such a false identity to meet her, and she also had her own considerations - if Gui Wu Tsuji appeared in front of her again, what attitude would she use to face him?

It was clear that she would not remember anything, but Gui Wu Tsuji still couldn't imagine such a scene.

He is not sure whether the hatred that has lasted for a long time will continue to this day.

So "Watanabe Kiyoshi" appeared in front of her.

The first time Wu Mi had a real conversation with her was when she offered to go for a walk in the yard together.

It was an extremely flat and ordinary tone, without the slightest bit of strange or unsatisfactory emotion.

So Wu Mi agreed.

When sitting next to her and looking at the crescent moon in the sky together, Guiwu Tsuji recalled something from a long time ago - they used to sit side by side so peacefully...

But at that time, Mutsuki would still take the initiative to rest her head on his shoulder.

It's been a long time since that time -- and it's been covered with some extremely embarrassing confrontations.

But for them now, that has passed.

When Wu Mi heard her personally say that she likes the moon, something heavy in her heart seemed to be finally let go - those things that hindered him and Yuan Muyue seemed to collapse in an instant.

The things worth remembering in the past have become brand new memories, and Wu Can's eyes looking at her became a little dazed when he heard her recite those familiar verses in an unfamiliar tone.

Something, after all, has changed.

But Guiwu Tsuji Wucan himself couldn't tell exactly what changed.

Until he saw with his own eyes that Yuan Muyue couldn't even hold the knife properly. After smiling reluctantly, he returned the wooden knife to her father and said to him: "As you know, I have never had any talent in this area." ..."

--wrong.

Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi wanted to deny this sentence, in his memory, she was very talented in this aspect.

So, a lot has changed.

Just like Genmutsuki himself, and like the relationship between them.

Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi probably hated her... Maybe it's not right to say that, he was still blaming her more, because she made the promise with her own mouth, but broke her promise because of such a trivial matter.

He even felt that it was her own fault that she became what she is now - because she violated the "curse" that she said herself.

But the person standing in front of her now is not "Ghost Mai Tsuji Mumi", but "Watanabe Kiyonao".

So all he could do was to tell her that he could do it too after watching the young man hand her the brown sugar that was originally for his sister when they went to the mansion of Hasegawa Heizang, the chief of Huofu Bandit Kai. buy her.

However, such words falling into her ears are probably like what a child said, "I must do something when I grow up", and it is basically not convincing.

It's all because of his current appearance - this appearance is a few years younger than her.

This was the first time that Onimai Tsuji felt that he seemed to have made a mistake.

But he seized the opportunity he got, and when Fengxing mentioned the so-called "guardian" and "reliability", he took the initiative to propose to him that he also wanted to go to the gymnasium to practice.

Although in fact he has no need to go to that kind of place to practice, but for those mentality that he can't explain clearly, this kind of superficial effort is inevitable.

At the same time, he also fulfilled what he said, and brought Yuan Muyue's brown sugar from Kiriya when he went back every day, until there was no room for such gifts in her room, and he even had to distribute them to the servants.

Maybe he won't admit it himself, but in fact, Guiwu Tsuji Wumi actually likes this kind of life, just like ordinary human beings, living a stable and ordinary life, and then the relationship between them will get better and better , until the opportunity for change is ushered in.

The opportunity to transform from "siblings" into husband and wife.

If nothing unexpected happened, this is how it should have ended—those wishes that were not fulfilled a long time ago can be fulfilled again after a long time.

But Gui Wu Tsuji saw something from her that was enough to scare him—she was sick.

Before going to the mountain god festival together, her body has not shown any serious deterioration, as long as she needs to be adjusted carefully, there will be no major problems... Even if one day she is no longer the daughter of Nanmachi Mori, Onimai Tsuji is still enough. The funds continue to be used for her to continue her life with those expensive medicinal materials.

He really felt that they could really live like ordinary people this time—even if he was not "Ghost Dance Tsuji Wumi", but "Watanabe Kiyoshi".

This kind of thing is completely unimportant.

Oni Wu Tsuji only cares about her thoughts, even if it's just a casual remark, he can remember it for a long time, but whatever her wish, Oni Wu Tsuji will do everything possible to achieve it for her.

And he himself does not reject these ideas that he has produced.

But Gen Mutsuki seemed to have a different idea from his. When she said in such a calm tone that it didn't matter anyway, Onimai Tsuji couldn't restrain her emotions.

——I care about you so much, why don't you care about me?

This is what he would have thought.

As much as he has paid, others should repay him as much, and even return him doubled—whether it is material things or other things, this is the case.

Such thoughts lingered in his heart, lingering like maggots on tarsal bones.

But every time Minamoto Mutsuki said something to him, he couldn't control his desire to fulfill her wish.

The "apple candy" was just mentioned casually, but Guiwu Tsuji asked almost everyone in the gym when he went to the gym to practice, but the result was that he had never heard of such a thing.

So where did the idea come from?

In fact, Mumai Tsuji didn't think about this question at all, he just felt that since Minazuki could say this word, it must mean that she wanted it.

So Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi also wanted to fulfill this wish for her.

He bought brown sugar from Tongya, and then went to buy apples. The "ghost" who hadn't touched the stove for hundreds of years entered the kitchen, peeled off the apple skins with bad taste, and peeled the pulp for her. Cut into small pieces and put them in a pot to boil together with brown sugar.

After becoming a ghost, he lost his sense of taste when he was a human being. The food that he could taste ups and downs when he was a human being is now all tasteless, so Guiwu Tsuji doesn't know what the brown sugar he bought countless times before tastes like. , I don't know what the "apple candy" he made for her tastes like.

If it were someone else, he might be able to think of asking others to help him taste the taste first, but Wu Mi has no experience in this area at all, and his personality also determines that he is not the kind of person who can think of this.

So he took the "apple candies" that had cooled down and solidified again, and seemed to have become much darker, and happily ran to Yuan Mutsuki's room to give them to him.

The girl smiled softly, and lowered her head with her chin half covered after the entrance of "apple candy", but when she raised her face, Wu Mi saw her brighter and brighter smile.

So—it must be delicious apple candy.
