[Inuyasha－Shawei]Love from the West

Ten years later.

The sound of typing on computer keyboards rose and fell in the office, occasionally mixed with the voice of the boss scolding his subordinates, and several women were whispering their ears and gossiping.Ah Li was buried in a pile of documents and worked hard, raising his head from time to time to type words into the computer, completing one file after another.

Finally finished the last file, Ah Li was like a puppet with a disconnected wire, instantly lost his combat power, and collapsed to death on the desk.Look at the clock on the wall, it's so dangerous, I only work two hours of overtime today...

"Hi Mu, do you want to have a drink nearby?" Several colleagues who also just got out of the misery came to Ah Li's seat and asked.

"And today's clerk is that super handsome guy! Last time we went to a dinner party, that handsome guy obviously had a crush on you, why don't you go and see him, and see if there is a chance to date?"

"This..." Ah Li packed up his briefcase, picked up the suit jacket on the back of the chair and hung it casually on his arm, and smiled a little troubled, "Although I really want to go to get together with you, but tomorrow is the weekend, I still have to get up early, so I won’t accompany you! Sorry!”

Ah Li left the office, and his colleagues felt sorry for Ah Li. The usual workload is already heavy enough, and she has to help with family shrine affairs on weekends. She is almost too busy to make a boyfriend. Will the 27-year-old her end up? Can't get married?

"Hey, Higurashi doesn't seem to be interested in office romances." A male colleague who once showed love to Ari said sadly.

"She has been working for five years, right? But it seems that she has never been in a relationship?"

"Maybe secretly dated a tall, rich and handsome man, it's inconvenient for us to know!"

"Woo...how perfect and happy is the man who can catch her? Look at Higurashi's sexy figure in a suit! He is kind and beautiful, and he can play shrine maiden cosplay on weekends..."

The male colleague was punched several times by the female colleague, what is the man thinking in his head!

After all, I got off work a little later than others, and the tram was not as crowded as when commuting in the morning.Looking at the constantly changing city scenery outside the tram window, Ah Li's eyes were a little lonely, not only because of the exhaustion from work, but also because of the unchanging life every day.

After climbing up the stairs one after another and returning home, Grandpa sat on the rocking chair in the garden and fell asleep peacefully.Ten years have passed, and Grandpa's health has not improved, and his movements have become slow, unable to take care of the affairs of the shrine, so Ari has taken over these few years.Ah Li helped her grandpa into the house to rest, and after settling down, she went to the kitchen to eat the delicious food that her mother had warmed for her. No matter how colorful the supper outside was, it didn't taste as good as her mother's.

After taking a comfortable bath, Ah Li returned to the room and flung herself on the bed, rubbed herself against the pillow, feeling comfortable at home.Turning over and staring at the ceiling in a daze, every day is a repetitive schedule, this kind of life is too boring.

I always feel bound by something, and it is clear that my body is filled with an adventurous soul, but life is so ordinary.Was it like this in the past...?However, a large part of her memory is completely blank.

When she was in high school, she had a serious illness.Since the third year of junior high school, she has often been sick, so she doesn't go to school often, and she was repeated because of this.Until the sudden outbreak of illness in high school, after lying in the hospital for several months, I was finally able to return home to rest. When I woke up again, I lost my memory from the third year of middle school to the first year of high school, and I couldn’t remember anything.

What kind of memory?I have asked family members and classmates, and all I get is the same answer—reading, getting sick, getting sick, studying, and repeating over and over again.It seems that it is a painful memory even in retrospect, Ah Li couldn't help but smile wryly.

The sound of men and women frolicking suddenly came from the next door. It seems that the younger brother Sota took his girlfriend home for the night.The sound insulation of this old house is extremely poor, I hope I won't hear any embarrassing sounds later.My younger brother has changed two or three girlfriends since he was a student and now he is out of the society. This is not surprising. Grass is too handsome and has good grades. He has been admitted to a good university and worked in a good big company. Girls appreciate him like this!

"Ah ah... I really want to fall in love too..." Hearing the sweet words from the next door, Ah Li couldn't help tearing up.From the time she was a student until she came out of the society, somehow she couldn't meet the boy she liked. She obviously had many suitors, but she just felt that she couldn't get along, that she didn't feel right, and of course she couldn't further associate with her.

Ah Li sometimes doubts...she doesn't have misogyny, does she?Sitting up suddenly, she actually began to think seriously about whether she should go to a psychiatrist for consultation tomorrow.

The wind blew in through the unclosed windows, bringing the white petals of the Time Tree into the room along the way.Suddenly it started to rain outside, Ah Li shifted her gaze to the night outside the window, although it was raining, she could still see the moon, every time this scene came into view, she would think of that night again.

It was also raining that night, when she woke up leisurely from the bed, still in a daze, she saw a vague silver figure disappearing in the moonlight.Later, I asked my mother who it would be, and my mother only replied that she was just dreaming, or... a fairy who came to wake her up from the darkness.

Whether it is the silver-white figure or the blood-stained uniform that he was wearing at that time, no definite answer can be obtained so far.

Do fairies kiss people?She stroked her forehead, vaguely remembering the warmth and the words she didn't hear clearly, but only knew the voice, which was very gentle and pleasant to hear.

"Master Sesshomaru!"

Seeing the arrival of Sesshomaru, Xiaoling couldn't help but burst into a sweet smile.Sesshomaru just hummed, and flew up to the Mochizuki Tower in the Imperial Garden.

Xiaoling has grown from a little girl to a beautiful young girl, with snow-like skin and good looks, her personality is still innocent, and her big flexible eyes are still clear, which has not changed with the passage of time.The beautiful braids that were always tied when I was a child were put down, and the long hair was tied into a low ponytail and placed on the side, which was a little more gentle.

The cherry blossoms in the west are still in full bloom, only the imperial garden, the forbidden place in the palace, has never bloomed cherry blossoms since the day Ali left, and the rest are all dead branches and leaves. The palace attendants said, maybe It was Yu Garden who felt the sadness of the master, and the brilliance was dimmed with Sesshomaru's heart.

Because of this, Sesshomaru hardly stepped into the Royal Garden anymore, and there were too many memories in that place.Xiaoling hated that the imperial garden was left unattended, so she took over the job of tidying the imperial garden, and would come here to clean it every day, so that the imperial garden could at least be kept clean.

Sesshomaru didn't stop Xiaoling from entering, and even kicked the evil view into the imperial garden, asking him to be responsible for pruning the dead trees.Sesshomaru still occasionally spends time at the Mochizuki Tower in the Royal Garden, and there must be something that made Sesshomaru feel good that day, such as the expansion of the country, such as Xiaoling’s rebirth birthday, such as the king of the Northland── Qi Muzhe When I came to him with a few jars of fine wine.

But there are only a few days in a year. After finishing the political affairs, Sesshomaru shuts himself in the palace without taking a step, or disappears in the palace. It is said that he went to Chenyin Peak .

"Xiaoling has become more beautiful again! Are you interested in becoming the queen of the northern kingdom?" Qi Mu pampered Xiaoling's head, and his tall and strong shadow almost covered Xiaoling.

"No!"

"Can you stop rejecting me with such innocent eyes? But it's much better than her, at least you don't reject me with contemptuous eyes..." Qi Mu walked towards Moon Tower dejectedly, but was held back by Xiaoling.

"Master Saiki... I entrust you with the heavy responsibility of Mr. Misaki Sesshomaru!"

"If you're joking, there may be no way..." Qi Mu smiled, "I can accompany him to learn swordsmanship. The only way to make his mood more ups and downs is the only way that works. It has been consistent for many years!"

Xiao Ling leaned slightly and bowed in the direction Qi Mu left.Qi Mu has managed Beiguo very well over the years, so that Sesshomaru does not have to worry about Beiguo at all, and he is the only person who will come to see Sesshomaru.Obviously Sesshomaru met him with a cold face every time, but Qi Mu didn't care. Perhaps the personalities of the two parties are completely different, but some beliefs are very tacit, such as loving the people, such as not despising human beings, such as not speaking for ten years. Don't mention her but miss her in my heart.

"Really! Every time that guy comes, I become a servant, and I have to serve them food and drink!" Xie Jian walked in from the gate of the imperial garden, holding two plates of food and wine in both hands, and a human-headed stick under his arm, The wobbly look looks a little funny.

"Grandpa Xijian has always been a servant."

"I'm Master Sesshomaru's capable subordinate! Fighting for him and eradicating evil troubles, I'm not the one who serves food and drinks!"

Xiaoling blinked, staring at the evil view that the gap between height and height was getting bigger and lower, "I seem to have grown a little taller."

"... Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you, I'm going to deliver the food! I'm so bored... The Moon Tower is high enough... Are the stairs going to exhaust me, an old man..." Xie Jian said, stepping on it He hasn't stopped complaining since he entered the Royal Garden.

"Hey, Grandpa Xiejian."

"What are you doing!"

"Master Sesshomaru... I haven't smiled since Sister Ari left." Xiaoling lowered her eyes, "Also almost stopped talking. It seems to be more lonely than before. Tell me, when will Master Sesshomaru will get better?"

"...Let's just sweep your floor obediently." Xie Jian was silent for a while before walking away.Of course he also wants to know the answer, but he understands that only the girl Ari can make Sesshomaru's heart disease heal.

After Qi Mu left, Sesshomaru continued to stay on Mochizuki Building, sipping wine.The moonlight fell on him, as if carved by a god himself, pure white and flawless, but his dim golden eyes darkened the whole figure.

Picking up the jug to pour another glass into the wine glass, only to find that the wine in the jug was empty.Forget it, let's go back to the bedroom and rest, even though he couldn't fall asleep peacefully no matter what.

"Master Sesshomaru."

Just when he was about to leave Moonwatch Tower, he was called by Xiaoling.He turned his body slightly, motioning for Xiaoling to continue talking.

"Amber finally became a revered exorcist this year, and re-established the exorcist village." After a pause, Xiaoling's cheeks flushed slightly, "Then I went back to Maple Village a few days ago When I met everyone, Kohaku was there, and he... proposed to me."

"...Is that so?" Sesshomaru's calm gaze finally stirred a bit, "I will order more dowry." Sesshoumaru will definitely make Xiaosuzu shine in the girl she grew up with. marry off as royalty.

"I haven't agreed yet... I'm still thinking about it, but I think I need to report to you, Master Sesshomaru first." Xiaoling likes Amber, and the two hit it off.It's just that when Amber proposed to her, the first thing she thought of was that Lord Sesshomaru lost someone to accompany him again.

Sesshomaru understands Xiaoling's concerns, and of course he himself is somewhat reluctant, but he cannot be an obstacle to Xiaoling's happiness.If so, the guilt he suffered in his heart would add another sum.

"Send Moo to pick up Amber, come to the palace and talk to me."

"But...you, Sesshoumaru-sama!"

"Forget it, I will go to Fengzhi Village in a few days, and you can ask him to come to Fengzhi Village to meet me."

It seems that Sesshomaru directly agreed to her marriage with Kohaber, and I don't know whether to be happy or sad.I am happy that Sesshomaru agrees with her beloved Kohaku, but I am sad that Sesshoumaru is so lonely after that, and no one will help take care of the imperial garden anymore, even though the cherry blossoms are no longer in full bloom.

"……yes."

Sesshomaru jumped down the Mochizuki Tower, ready to leave the imperial garden.Passing a big tree, he glanced at the pattern engraved on the trunk, and then left without looking back.

A Li entered the last line of text and completed the project report. Today's work was successfully completed!She looked up at the clock, and she was able to leave work on time today!very good!Project completed!very good!Tonight is still a good day to have a rare dinner with my good friends for many years Yuka, Ayumi, and Eri. Everything is very good!

With a bang, a large stack of documents was thrown on A Li's desk, shattering A Li's happiness.

"The previous project was badly written! Rewrite it for me! It will be handed over to me today!"

"..." Even before the project was sent up, the supervisor in front of him had to review it, and he said it was all right, so why do you think it's bad now?It’s like this every time, never seriously looking at the subordinates’ things, only perfunctory, and when they are shot by the highest level, they turn around and scold them for asking them to do it again, which is a waste of their time.

"Even if you work overtime until midnight today, you have to do it well. The chairman will ask for it tomorrow! Do you understand? Alas, young people nowadays are so slack in doing things, they can't teach them no matter what..."

Ah Li frowned, deleted the project that he had just completed, printed out the resignation letter that had been prepared for a long time but was stuck in Japan because of the difficulty of finding a job, and was still troubled and did not throw it out, then shut down the computer.

She swept all the personal belongings on the table into her bag, stood up, handed the letter of resignation to the supervisor with an ugly face, and said coldly, "I quit."

"What?"

"I, no, do it! Thank you for your long-term care, see you no more!" Ali turned and left the office domineeringly, leaving behind the stunned supervisor and colleagues who secretly applauded Ali's courage.After being stared at by the supervisor, the colleagues continued to resign themselves to work.

Well, the feeling of Fire losing the supervisor is also very good!It's just...not good at all without a job.In the metropolis of Tokyo, it is extremely difficult to find a job. I really hope that one day the handsome CEO in an idol drama will find her, and the story of an ordinary woman like her will happen to her. Fantasies are fantasies, but she still thinks seriously. Think about how to arrange the future.

Finally squeezed onto the tram and headed to the place for dinner tonight, Ah Li was squeezed by the door like a sardine, and he had to work hard to avoid the fate of being squeezed out.But her fate was rough. When the door of a certain station opened, another group of people squeezed in. As a result, at this moment, the chaotic flow of people forced her out of the door.

There was a sound of closing the door, and Ah Li looked at the tram away from her wanting to cry without tears.Looking to the side, there are groups of people waiting for the next tram. If you queue up again, you don’t know how many trains you have to wait. Helplessly, you sigh and take out your phone to turn on the map navigation. Fortunately, the meeting place is not far from this stop , Just use it and go.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected A Li's elongated figure. There was still some time before the party, and she slowed down a bit, walking on a road she was not very familiar with.The season is spring, and cherry blossom petals are scattered on the road. She will occasionally kick up the petals mischievously, and then nervously check if there is anyone next to her. After all, this kind of behavior seems to be done by girls.

There seemed to be a lot of cherry blossoms here. Ali looked around for a while, and it turned out that there was a park not far away, which was filled with huge cherry trees one after another.Let's go and have a look, Ah Li thought in his heart.

Walking in the cherry blossom forest, the colorful clouds and the pink of the cherry blossoms reflect each other in the evening, forming a magical world.The petals of the cherry blossoms were flying, and Ah Li enjoyed the baptism of the cherry blossom rain, forgetting the sorrow of just losing his job.

A black cat meowed and meowed at A Li, as if being guided, A Li followed the direction of the black cat.The black cat landed on one of the cherry blossom trees, then disappeared into the cherry blossoms without a trace.

"Huh? This cherry blossom tree blooms very beautifully!" Ari smiled nicely and looked up at the cherry blossoms.Her eyes moved down a bit, and she saw a pattern, which was somewhat blurred after years, so she approached to see it more clearly.

It turned out to be a lover's umbrella.She narrowed her eyes curiously, wondering whose name was engraved under the lover's umbrella?Seeing this, Ah Li's breathing stopped.Ri Muli, isn't that her name?

Maybe it's a coincidence of the same name and surname?She doesn't remember that she has been here, nor does she remember who she came here with to engrave the lover's umbrella.Looking at the other side under the umbrella, she read the name.

"Sesshomaru..."

It's a name I don't recognize at all.

I don’t know how long I’ve been standing in front of the cherry blossom tree, but the setting sun has already set, replaced by a bright moon.Passers-by looked at Ali with a confused expression, but looking at the pattern and Ali's expression, they thought it was better not to bother him, maybe it was just a broken relationship?

"it's wired……"

Ah Li raised his hands and wiped off the two lines of warmth on his face, but as soon as he wiped it off, tears immediately fell down again.

"Why... I cry when I see this name..."

The author has something to say: Neither world will cry nor cry.

Sesshomaru, why don't you stay with Qi Mu (no
