The Girl and Her Sword [Comprehensive + Sword III]

The first time Kiba saw Sugimura was on the battlefield.

Should it be said that he is the descendant of the rumored Shinsengumi members? Even in the crowd, he has a unique appearance, and the reason why Kiba noticed him was because——

He saved Kiba's life.

That gun is exactly the same as the one in Qing Wu's hand.

"Ah," the amazing thing is that Sugimura's home is not far from Tsume Shrine, within a few hours' walk distance. In modern times when tradition has been eliminated, Sugimura's home still maintains the previous Style, unique house, not only has a unique garden view, but also has a verandah for enjoying the shade.And the elder brother Sugimura said was wearing a dark blue bathrobe, sitting leisurely on the porch to enjoy the shade, seeing them coming, he smiled and said, "Did Xiaobei bring friends to play? This... Kiba Jun, long time no see." He said with nostalgia.

"Yeah." Kiba nodded.He is not good at words, although he has saved lives, but the two have not been in contact after the war, so his relationship with Aoi Sugimura is not particularly familiar, so he stood aside without saying a word.

"Then..." Aoi obviously thought the same way, he turned his gaze to Qingwu, "Miss, why do you have my knife?"

"Ah, this idiot stole it privately to present it to his idol," Qingwu said calmly, "I just caught it."

"That's right, it really needs to be punished." Aoi nodded, "I think this stunned young man said something to offend me. I'm really sorry."

"It doesn't matter." Qingwu untied the knife and returned it to Kui, saying, "He seems to think that this knife is your knot."

"Haha, is that so?" Aoi glanced at him lightly, "I understand, what else does Miss want to know?"

"When and where did you learn that Tsumu wants a sword?" Qingwu asked Sugura.

"Hmm..." Sugimura didn't want to say it at first, but when Aoi looked over, he immediately said honestly, "Actually, I overheard it."

As he said, when he was almost an idiot like worshiping every day, he overheard the secret conversation between the priest and someone and learned about it.

"As far as I know," Aoi said thoughtfully, "Many people are enshrined in that Tsume shrine, including his son's boss, but his son is not enshrined in his own shrine. Someone asked At that time, he only said that he would be sad when he saw him, but now that I think about it, it’s a bit strange.”

"I already knew that." After Qingwu said something, he suddenly made a posture of drawing a knife, and swung towards Kui as if holding a knife in his hand.

Clang!

Aoi almost subconsciously jumped back and drew out the knife, aiming at Qingwu.

However, Qingwu didn't have a knife in his hand, he just made a fake move.

"It's redundant." Qingwu said, "Where is he?"

"Ah..." Aoi sighed and said, "Have you been discovered?"

"What are you talking about?" Sugimura asked suspiciously.

"Even Mr. Kiba has noticed it, I guess you are the only one who doesn't know, idiot." Qingwu said coldly.

No, I don't see anything.Kiba said in his heart.However, he remained silent, pretending that he knew.

"What the hell?" Sugimura looked back and forth, and finally cast his eyes on Yukiko for help.

Who cares about me... Yukiko sighed in her heart and said, "He's not a human, he's a puppet."

"Impossible!" Sugimura said fiercely, "How can my brother be a puppet!"

"I'm a puppeteer, how could I get it wrong." Yukiko rolled her eyes and said.

"It's because you, an idiot, are so stupid that you have been kept secret until now," Qingwu said impatiently, "Okay, you can ask your brother about this matter later, this problem is solved, let's go .”

"Where are you going?" Kiba asked.

"Well," Qingwu glanced at the family crest on the knife, and thought for a while, "After all, it's a rare visit, I'd better meet him."

Then she looked at the silently smiling doll beside her and said, "Where is he?"

"Come with me." The puppet nodded and made a leading gesture.

"Yukiko and I can just go." Qingwu walked halfway, and suddenly said, "Master Kiba, please enlighten the kid over there."

This is definitely a joke, right? !Is Kiba the kind of person just like Kyogokudo? !

"Just do it in your own way, don't try to imitate it, or I won't be able to resist beating you." Qingwu added.

.......hehe!

The crowd followed the puppet.

In front of a hut, a man in a bathrobe and a jacket was sitting on the porch.

"Has it been discovered at last?" He smiled, "Don't tell me it was that stunned young man who discovered it."

"No, I discovered it." Qingwu said lightly.

"You...." The real Aoi looked at her, stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked a little eagerly, "What is your name?"

"..." Qingwu smiled, and immediately returned to the expressionless look before, and said, "Ruan Qingwu, of course you can call me by another name. Okita Haruki. 1"

"Ah...is it the child of my grandfather's friend?" Aoi laughed. "Grandpa kept talking about you when he was alive."

"Actually, I'm a generation older than you." There was a gleam in Qingwu's eyes, and she said slowly, "Your grandfather's friend is actually my father."

"It's hard, hard, hard, hard, hard, hard, hard!" Yukiko suddenly understood why Qingwu wanted to call her. "Have you not--"

"You are still similar to the woman mother said, just as stupid." Qingwu rolled her eyes and said with contempt. "I recognized it at a glance. It is exactly the same as what my mother said. Should I say that a fool will inherit it?"

"Who said that!" Yukiko took out the bell passed down from generation to generation again, "This..."

"It's a music box. My mother made it for your grandma when she has nothing to do." Qingwu glanced at it casually and said, "It's not very expensive. If I want to make it, I can make a lot of it."

"..." Yukiko received a knowing blow and stood aside dejectedly.

"I can't help the old wound on your body." Qingwu glanced at Aoi and said, "But if I can get back my things, I can cure you."

"?" Aoi looked at her in surprise, "Is it really possible?" When he was a child, he often heard about the deeds of the legendary person, but he always took it as an old man's bragging and was noncommittal.He was seriously injured on the battlefield before, and when he woke up, he could no longer pick up a knife. He thought that this would be the only way to live his life, unless the person his grandfather talked about really existed.

"Basically, it's not a very serious injury." Although Qingwu doesn't study medicine, he still has a good eye for identifying injuries, "If I can get back my things, I will be saved, but I may still not be able to hold the knife. Think clearly."

"It's okay." Aoi sighed, "It's better not to be able to hold a knife."

"So your brother is an idiot." Qing Wu said.

"I hope you will bear with me a lot." Aoi smiled wryly.

"My things are at Tsume Shrine," Qing Wu frowned, "The old man took my things before I woke up."

"Is it Priest Tsume?" Aoi frowned, "Since his only son died, I feel that something is wrong with him."

"Demonic barrier." Qingwu said indifferently, "From what your younger brother said, I thought you were also demonic barriered, but it seems that there is no such thing. I am very relieved."

"Thank you." Aoi saluted.

"Anyway, it's an old acquaintance, it's just a matter of little effort." Qingwu waved his hand, "I'm leaving first."

"Where are you going?" After learning of Qingwu's identity, Yukiko looked around strangely, and asked quickly when she heard that she was going to leave.

"Of course I'm going back." Qingwu blinked and said strangely, "It's almost night, so naturally I'm going home for dinner."

"..." Yukiko was silent.

"Are you trying to say that you have no place to live?" Qingwu rolled her eyes, "Fix it yourself, I'm going back."

Just leave? ! ! !Yukiko looked at the drowsy sky, thought about her apartment which was far away from here, and came to the vestibule with her last hope, but was told that after Kiba persuaded Sugimura Xiaobei, she seemed to know that Qingwu would not Wait for him to leave by himself.

Feeling ashamed to stay at Sugimura's house for dinner, Yukiko became ruthless and walked into the vast night alone.

Coincidentally, Yukiko's apartment is also next to Tsume Shrine. If Tsume Shrine is taken as the midpoint, it is exactly the distance from end to end.

Sugimura's house is on the top, while Yukiko's house is on the bottom.There is also a long slope on the way, passing through the torii of the shrine.

Yukiko walked carefully on the way to the shrine.

The surroundings were very quiet, and Yukiko regretted wearing high heels at this time, only the sound of her high heels echoed in the silent air.

Terrified, she simply took off her shoes and walked quietly as if wanting to blend in with the night.

However, even after she took off her shoes, the sound of high heels did not disappear.

!

She was horrified, looked left and right, and then hid in the bushes beside her.

Tuk tuk.The sound of high heels continued.

After a while, a flamboyantly dressed puppet appeared, and she was the one who made the sound.She seemed to be bewitched by something, walking stiffly and mechanically.

Tuk tuk, tuk tuk, tuk tuk.

Maybe she tripped over a small stone, her body shook, and then her head bent down, swaying with the movement, but it didn't fall off.

The whole scene was too weird and terrifying, Yukiko could only control her voice not to cry out.

The action source of the doll is solar energy, and the energy for growth is the relationship with the owner.The reason why the puppet in front of me has grown up must be due to the emotion of the owner, but now it looks like this...

Most of the head was cut off, and it stands to reason that he should die.

However, the power of the doll is different from that of human beings. They can still move when exposed to sunlight. However, in order to make the doll closer to humans, when designing, Yukiko added the setting of entering a state of suspended animation after judging that the injury is enough to cause death.Therefore, after receiving fatal damage, the doll will basically look exactly like dead.

What is the reason for the puppet to break through this setting and stand up after it should have died?

Thinking about this, Yukiko didn't realize that the broken doll had stopped in front of her unconsciously.
