The Inquisitor is the Demon King

01.

——My lord, I am using my loyalty to cover up my greed for you.

The moonlight was fading outside the window, but there was no time to take care of it.

Hasebe's back was facing the moonlight, his purple eyes were close to black, his respect and absolute loyalty seemed to be hidden in the torrential rain.After polarization, his attire was already dark, and in such a scene, it showed a different oppressiveness.Black is order, law, and a cold order that cannot be violated.

Oda Jindai was only wearing a thin coat, and her graceful waist could be vaguely seen.The moonlight streamed down her back, and her expression didn't change after hearing his rebellious words.

"Hasebe," she sighed faintly, "you shouldn't be saying such things at this time."

"Could it be that the Lord doesn't believe it?" he asked.

She stared at him without speaking.

"Could it be that my lord, do you believe it?" He asked again.

She closed her eyes and said, "Get out."

Hasebe was stunned.

"I said, get out now, I don't want to see you anymore." She said coldly.

"...Yes, my lord." He saluted, tried his best to suppress his emotions, and turned to leave.

Not long after Hasebe left, California Kiyomitsu came, and the Shinsengumi's territory was separated between the God Judge's courtyard and Hasebe's courtyard, so he was bound to be discovered by the Shinsengumi when he returned.

California Qingguang knocked on the door, and then asked, "May I come in, my lord."

"Come in." Oda Shinyo said.

California Qingguang came in with a tray in which there were several small dishes and a small brush.

"I saw the color of the master's nails faded yesterday, so I specially brought fresh nail polish." California Qingguang explained.

In fact, his voice can be very low in essence, but like Tsurumaru, he is always in high spirits on weekdays. At this time, his voice is also full of youthful vigor, which makes Oda Komyo's mood unconscious. Get better.

"Okay, do you want to paint my nails?" Oda asked.

"It's my honor to be able to paint the master's nail polish." California Qingguang said with a smile, "This way I can show off to that guy Anding!"

Oda Komyo also smiled, lifted the quilt and sat up on the bed.She spent almost the whole day in bed today, and her spirits are much better.California Qingguang put all the nail dyeing tools on the table, and she also sat down at the table.

On the table is a combination of Peilan and Malan flower arrangements, which were sent by Hasebe. The bright colors add a sense of gaudyness to the chilling autumn, but if you taste it carefully, it also has a sense of elegance and tranquility.

The color is Oda Jinyo's favorite red.

Ikebana styles and vases are also Oda Jinyo's favorite feeling.

Only Hasebe can make something that suits her wishes.

Oda Komyo tilted his head and looked at the flowers on the table, and then his eyes fell on the summer soup, which was made from clams, tofu and tea leaves in a special way, but when Hasebe brought it over, she Didn't take a sip.

"Master?" California Qingguang called out.

"Put this under the lantern at the entrance." Oda Komyo came back to his senses, and pointed to Hasebe's flower arrangement. "That would just make room for the painted nails."

"Okay, my lord." California Qingguang replied obediently.

The brush sweeps the nails finely, meticulously dyeing the fiery red layer by layer.

"It feels thicker than the color of your nail polish," said Oda Komyo.

"Well, the master's observation skills are very keen." California Kiyomitsu gently held Oda Komyo's hand, lowered his eyes and carefully painted her nail polish, and said, "I think the master is more suitable for that gorgeous red... ...Hmm...It's not so much gorgeous as it is hot, as if the fingers are burning with flames."

"What's that? Cutting wires with a kitchen knife in your hand, with sparks and lightning all the way?" Oda Komyo asked.

"...What is that, lord?" California Qingguang tried hard to keep up with his master's train of thought.

"It means that young people who are second-handed have more fun." Oda Komyo said.

"..." California Qingguang decided to give up the idea of ​​following his master's train of thought.

Because it is painted carefully, it is relatively slow.Oda Kinyo started to stare at the face of California Kiyomitsu out of boredom. California Kiyomitsu is a very beautiful Fusangshin, who can really be described as "beautiful", with exquisite facial features, beauty moles, and lustrous and smooth hair.

Oda Komyo couldn't help reaching out to touch his face, his hand trembled, and then painted the nail polish on the outside.

"My lord, the sudden movement startled me." California Qingguang complained lightly.

"Okay." Oda Komyo withdrew his hand and continued to wander in the sky.

California Qingguang carefully wiped the nail polish off her skin with a tissue, and continued to apply it.

"You came here after seeing Yakiri leave." Oda Shinyo said suddenly.

"Ah... yes." California Qingguang said.

"Aren't you curious?" Oda Kamyo asked.

California Qingguang hesitated for a while, and then said cautiously, "Curiosity... But the affairs of the lord and Hasebuden are beyond our control."

"I see. But I remember that your obsession is indeed to win the Lord's favor?" she asked.

"Favorite is more focused on 'like'. 'Favorite' is not 'love', nor is it anything else. There are too many," California Qingguang hesitated after speaking here, and said slowly, "...I dare not Extravagant."

"As far as the sword is concerned, you have obtained enough from me." Oda Shinyo said.

"Yes, so I will only appear by your side when Hasebuden is not by your side." California Qingguang blinked and said, "You are the best judge."

Oda Shinyo laughed, "You brought me that high hat."

——California Qingguang is a very smart fusangshen.

"I just expressed my inner thoughts." California Qingguang said sincerely, "As a sword, I am really lucky to meet a master like you."

"I also feel that I am very lucky to have your subordinates." Oda Shinyo said.

She meant it when she said it.

When I met Sakata Gintoki, he asked her when she planned to resign. She really only regarded it as a job at that time, but it is different now.

Even if one day she and the government of time openly confront each other, she will try her best to abduct all the swordsmen.

After all, she is someone who has been deceived by history, abducting some Fusangshen, wouldn't it be easy to catch.

Having said that, Oda Jinyo asked, "Qiyomitsu, what do you think of me treating Hasebe?"

"Very good." California Qingguang said.

"Yeah, I don't think so," she said.

"Hasebu Hall is the Lord's most important Fusangshen, right?" California Qingguang asked.

Hearing what Kami Kiyomitsu said, Oda Komyo became curious, "Eh? How do you guys think about the situation in Honmaru in private?"

"Hmm... Hasebu Palace is the Lord's most important Fusangshen, and Sanriyue Palace seems to be at odds with him, but because...well, Hasebu Palace has the support of the Lord, so the two sides maintain a balance for the time being." California Qingguang said.

"It sounds like Gongdou." Oda Kinyo commented.

California clear light big embarrassment.

"And then?" she asked.

"In addition to the Changgubu Hall and the Sanriyue Hall, everyone thinks that the Lord's most important thing is the Changyi Hall." He said.

"It really is Gongdou." Oda Shinyo nodded.

California Qingguang was completely speechless this time.

After the nail polish was finished, Oda Jinyo blew on it, stared at the beautiful red color for a while, and then said without end, "I got angry with Hasebe, and then drove him away."

But California Qingguang took it smoothly, "Did Hase Buden do anything to dissatisfy the Lord?"

"No, he did a good job, that's my problem." Oda Shinyo shook his head, "He did everything I thought he would do, but he didn't do what I expected him to do... In fact, that expectation made me Never expressed it, at least for him right now."

When she heard Hasebe's words, she was not surprised, but expected, or let out a long sigh of relief.

After Sanri Yuezong nearly forged Hasebe, and she gave Hasebe the first order on Shenyin, she expected that one day he would appear in this posture.But at that moment, she missed that night in Toba.The time when he blocked the violating police officer's gun for her, and then said he didn't want to leave her.

"Maybe I'm not as strong as I look... No, it should be that I'm more self-willed than I thought." Oda Shinyo smiled as if lost, and then said, "Go back first, I want to be alone tonight stay."

"...Yes, my lord." California Qingguang said.

"By the way, bring these to your side and distribute them to everyone in the Shinsengumi." Oda Kamyo pointed to the summer soup on the table and said.

"Thank you, Lord." He nodded.

After Kami Kiyomitsu left, Oda Shinyo sat by the window and began to daze.

Loyalty and love are of course different.

Possessiveness is also different from love.

But a lot of the time, when they are precarious, bloody, and carrying more, they look the same.

After all, thinking about love and feelings is usually done by people who have nothing else to do. If you are busy, who has time to study those things carefully.

What's more, since you can hug and kiss, then cherish each other, because you don't know when you will die.

Oda Jindai is a very extreme person in essence, because of this, what she really pursues is usually very pure things.Hasebe used to be able to have very pure feelings, but was confused by her.She began to miss that Hasebe who smiled and confessed her heart, not this one... But, so what?

she asked herself.

This kind of pressing and cutting Hasebe is the most suitable for her as far as her subordinates are concerned.

So this should be all right... But where does her current feeling of depression and nostalgia come from?

The answer is simple and clear.

She developed other feelings for Yaki Hasebe, not just the leader's feelings for his subordinates.
