"Congratulations to Yuka for successfully entering Fuji TV! The dream has come true!" The four women raised their beer glasses, happily toasted and gulped down the wine.

Yuka decided to dream of becoming a female anchor since she was a student. After graduation, she worked in a small Japanese TV station. After several efforts, she finally became a female anchor. Now she is still on the anchor station of Japan's largest Fuji TV. From before So much so that all her friends are happy for her now.

"Ah, Eri, you came out to meet with us, what about the child?" Yuka asked.

"Husband will take care of you, don't worry." Eri shrugged and smiled.She was the first to get married among the four, and her husband loved her very much, which made her friends envious. "It's Ayumi, the novel you translated recently is already on the market, you did a great job translating it!"

Ayumi had good grades in the past, especially in foreign languages, so she took it as a volunteer to work hard as a translator.Now I mainly translate some foreign literary novels, and occasionally take over the work of oral translation.

"I'm afraid I didn't turn it very smoothly... But the evaluation seems to be fine!"

Yuka put down her wine glass, dragged her cheeks and looked at Ah Li, and asked, "How are you doing recently? Everyone is busy, and I don't have time to visit you at your shrine. Is it because of this reason that you are crying and swollen?" Eyes? Because you miss us so much?"

Ah Li waved his index finger to massage around the eyes, is it that obvious?But if it is said that she just cried because of a name she doesn't recognize, it should be regarded as crazy, right?She didn't feel anything about the name Sesshomaru, but she shed tears for no reason. What was going on with her tear glands?

"Actually... I lost my job today..."

"Huh?" The three of them widened their eyes, but they comforted her immediately. Working overtime all day and being scolded by the supervisor, the mental pressure is enough. Why don't you rest for a while before you can go a longer distance.

"I'm so envious of seeing you all progressing so well! Whether it's work or love, I've failed so badly. Huh... Even my younger brother is attacking me directly from the next room with his voice... It's umm again Yeah again..." Ah Li asked the boss for another glass of beer.

There are three lines behind everyone, attacking the single dog directly with their voices, so pitiful.

Yu Jia patted Ah Li on the shoulder and said, "There are a lot of young and handsome guys on the TV station! There are also some handsome, smart, and financially capable male anchors. I'll introduce them to you again. Don't be discouraged!"

"But... I seem to have misogyny..."

"……What?"

Ayumi is worried about Ari. Ayumi has had many suitors since high school, but Ayumi has never dated anyone. Even Hojo, who has been chasing her for many years, finally gave up and went abroad to work as a photographer.Looking back at the memories when she returned to middle school, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Ah... A Li has only dated Sesshomaru, the doctor who accompanied him in the third year of junior high school in his life. Sesshomaru is so perfect, no wonder the later boy A Li I can't see---" Rolling eyes.

Before she finished speaking, Eri covered her mouth in a panic, knowing that she had made a mistake inadvertently, and blurted out Aki's pain, Ayumi herself panicked, and so did Yuka.

A Li's mother told them that Sesshomaru and A Li broke up.Because this blow was too great, I forgot that memory after I had a serious illness. The doctor told me not to bring up all the memories about Sesshomall and the time when I was in junior high school to the first year of high school, otherwise Ah Li’s illness may recur, so They also helped Ali's family hide it until now.

"What is Ayumi talking about? See if Ari understands you!"

"Ah...I'm talking about the plot I translated...how can you substitute it indiscriminately, really!"

"That's, that's right! Ari is a single mother and fetus! Dates or something... Just kidding!"

It's too fake, after knowing each other for so many years, can Ah Li still fail to see their concealment?

"Sesshomaru...who is it?" Ari's expression became serious. It was the name she saw on the cherry blossom tree just now, but she didn't remember it at all.Perhaps, Sesshomaru is the key to her recovering that large memory.

Ari stood up, his breathing became hesitant and rapid, "Who is Sesshomaru? Please tell me..."

The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, it seemed that they couldn't hide it.

Sesshomaru has a handsome face, a tall and solid figure, a smart mind, a not very talkative personality, and always shows people with a cold face, making people afraid to approach.The characteristic is that he has long silver hair and a pair of beautiful golden eyes, like a foreign nobleman, which is fascinating.

But Ali couldn't piece together the appearance of this person in his memory.

She returned home in a daze.The spring night was slightly cool, and Ali came back late tonight. Ali's mother put on a knitted coat and stood at the door waiting for her daughter's return. But when her daughter saw her, she lost her usual vigor and leaned quietly. on her chest.

"Have you drank too much? Mom is going to prepare hot tea for you." The voice was a bit more vicissitudes of time, but it was still gentle and reassuring.

"Mom." Ah Li narrowed his eyes, "Sesshomaru...what does it look like in my memory?"

Ali's mother's eyes were a bit sad, this day has finally come, no matter how much she hides and evades, the red thread of fate is not easy to break.

She caressed Ah Li's back, and said, "He is the most important person in Ah Li's life. Ah, no, it seems that he can't be called a human... but a monster."

Ah Li raised his head, with a surprised expression, "Monster?"

"Hmm." The corners of her lips curled up, and she smiled warmly. "It's a powerful yet gentle youkai."

Inuyasha's brows were furrowed tightly, and his facial expressions kept contorting, his patience had almost reached its limit.A pair of dog ears were constantly being pinched and pulled by the three children, and he, who hated late at night, wished that he could just forget about late at night every day, so that his ears would not have to be destroyed.

"You guys... Have you squeezed enough?" Finally, he couldn't hold back his temper, he yelled at the child, and it was not surprising that he got a whimpering cry.

"I want you to help take care of a child, why did you make the child cry?" Coral took out another piece of clothing from the basket and hung it on the clothes pole.Today's weather is very good, the sun is not strong, but comfortable and pleasant.

"I take care of my own child! Why do you throw your child and Mitreya's child to me every time!"

"Because you are the most leisurely." Coral cast a sideways glance at Inuyasha, and continued to dry the clothes.

Maitreya goes out to cheat and cheat by relying on his position as a mage... no, he earns money for milk powder by relying on benevolence and benevolence; Amber is busy with the reorganization of the exorcism village; Do some simple work of classifying herbs in the hut; Kikyo continues to serve as a maiden, which is the center of gravity of the entire Maple Village; with Inuyasha around, there is no need to worry about monsters, Coral will take on the job of a housewife and take care of everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation.

"I'm the great youkai who protects Maple Village! I'm not the babysitter... Can you please stop pulling!" The children just stopped playing for a while, and then started playing with Inuyasha's ears again.

Maitreya just came back with a few bags of rice, and came to Shan Shan and kissed her on the cheek. Although he had been married for many years, he was still in love, and Maitreya's cheeks were always hot and red.

"If you touch my ass again, I'll cut off your hand."

"Yes..." Mitreya touched the palm print and smiled, "Inuyasha worked hard today too!"

"If you think I'm working hard, take care of yourself!"

"Inuyasha, you should be considerate and considerate of others, everyone is busy." Kikyo walked over holding the herbs, with a smile on his lips.She knew that Inuyasha would say what he said, but every time she would take the children outside to run and play.

As soon as he saw Kikyo approaching, Inuyasha immediately grabbed off the burden that was crawling on him, jumped to Kikyo to help her get the herbs, and picked her up by the way, completely ignoring other people's eyes.

"Inuyasha!" Kikyo exclaimed, redness appeared on her snow-white face.

"Going to the depths of the forest to pick so many herbs again! My feet are tired from walking!"

"Really... I won't be able to walk again if you do this again!"

Inuyasha took great care of Kikyo, because on the day of their wedding, Kikyo just jokingly said, "After marriage, if you dare to let her suffer the serious injury like 50 years ago, I will never forgive you this time." 』, Inuyasha has never let Kikyo suffer even a little tiredness or pain.

The two couples always flirt in front of the children intentionally or unintentionally. The children are shy at first, but later they get used to it and occasionally roll their eyes.

"Inuyasha..." Kikyo felt a strong evil spirit coming from nearby, Inuyasha nodded.

"Hmm... Sesshomaru is here."

×××

The bone-eating well that connects the two worlds has been covered with vines, and the hole is also covered with dense branches and leaves, not even a little light can penetrate.Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru standing quietly in front of the well, recalling that day ten years ago.

──The day Ari left.

Inuyasha smelled the strong smell of blood from Ari, and when he chased him to the well, Sesshomaru had already jumped into the well with Ari, traveling to modern times.Although he was worried, since Sesshomaru was by his side, Inuyasha couldn't keep up. After all, he believed that Sesshoumaru would protect Ari, and Sesshoumaru had his reasons for bringing Ari back to modern times.

But he didn't expect that Ah Li's injuries were enough to kill her.When Sesshomaru came back, he didn't say much, he pulled out the broken tooth at his waist and chopped the bone eating well, Inuyasha hurriedly stopped him with the broken tooth, although it was too late.

"...What are you doing! How is Kagome coming back like this!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Go away."

"Where's Ari?"

"Go away."

"What's with that bloody smell, Kakino? And why did you destroy the well? Explain it to me!"

"I want you to go!"

Sesshomaru pushed the knife hard, and Inuyasha staggered back a few steps.Sesshomaru swung his knife towards the well again, and the earth and rocks collapsed, submerging the big hole.

Sesshomaru's inexplicable behavior really pissed off Inuyasha, who took advantage of Sesshomaru's second swing of the knife to knock Sesshoumaru's teeth flying, and punched Sesshoumaru in the face hard.

"What the hell happened, Ari!"

Sesshomaru did not fight back, he lowered his head, and did not wipe away the blood dripping from the corner of his lips.After a long time, he slowly said the words that made Inuyasha almost collapse, "She died."

"What?" Inuyasha couldn't react for a moment, his mind went blank.

"...Since I heard it clearly, I don't need to repeat it again."

"Why would Aki..." Inuyasha didn't want to mention that word.He grabbed Sesshomaru's collar vigorously, and said in a flustered tone, "What about the natural teeth? You saved Ari with your natural teeth, right? Huh? Save her life for me!"

"Saved." Sesshomaru raised his eyes, his eyes were cold and frightening, without any anger, as if he was the one who died. "But she's not coming back either."

"I won't come back..." Inuyasha looked at the destroyed well, "Is that what Kaguya meant? How could it be..."

"I took away her memories of the Warring States Period and the Jade of the Four Souls. She will no longer be nostalgic for this place, nor will she remember everything here."

Inuyasha's eyes widened, and the hand holding Sesshomaru's collar trembled.Why did Sesshomaru take Ari's memory away?Why did Ah Li never come back?Aki is everyone's important partner, and also Inuyasha's salvation!How could he take Ah Li away from everyone?How could he decide everything for her without A Li's consent!

"Inuyasha, you'd better give up on going to modern times to pick her up, or I'll kill you."

"...you fucking selfish bastard!"

Gritting his teeth ferociously, and clenched his fist, Inuyasha threw another punch at Sesshomaru.This punch was heavier than the one just now, Sesshomaru still didn't fight back, now he looks like a walking dead.One punch, one punch, and another punch, until Sesshoumaru had no strength to stand upright again, he fell to the ground, Inuyasha jumped on Sesshoumaru and grabbed his long silver hair, he broke down and shouted, "Throw Ari in the Hyundai is still acting calm and meaningless, that's why I want to kill you!"

He was about to throw another punch, and then Maitreya and Shan Shan who rushed over pulled him away to stop him.

"Inuyasha! Calm down!" Kikyo jogged to Inuyasha's side. At this moment, Inuyasha was so mad that even his eyes turned blood red. She was worried that Inuyasha would turn into a demon if he continued like this. Kikyo held his shoulder to comfort him.

"How can I calm down! This guy—"

"Enough! Sesshomaru is suffering more than anyone else now!" Maitreya growled, "What we lost was a friend... what he lost was... his one and only!"

Inuyasha stopped talking and calmed down temporarily.He felt pain after losing Ah Li, so why not Sesshomaru?What's more, Ah Li is a woman whom Sesshomaru loves and protects so much.

Sesshomaru staggered to his feet, lost in thought.He turned around and started to leave Maple Village, but Inuyasha stopped him.

"Why are you doing this?"

"...I hurt Ari in the battle with you back then. Think about why you forced Ari back to modern times."

Inuyasha was speechless for a moment, but just quietly watched Sesshomaru leave.

When Tie Sui Ya was taken away by Sesshomaru, he fell into a bitter fight.In order to protect Inuyasha, Kaguru tried to stop Sesshoumaru with a bow and arrow, but was affected by Sesshoumaru's attack and fell into a temporary coma, making Inuyasha understand how incompetent he is who cannot protect Karei well.At that time, Naraku was not yet dead, fearing that Ari would fall into such danger again, she forcefully sent Ari back to modern times, thinking that that was where she belonged, and in her ordinary world, there were no monsters and ghosts, and no casualties caused by wars.

The reason is the same, because I am afraid of losing Ah Li forever.

This time, he can use his natural teeth to save Ah Li, what if there is another time?

Sesshomaru blamed himself painfully, hated his own incompetence, no matter how hard he tried to protect him, there would eventually be times when he couldn't pay attention.If there is another time, he will lose her forever.It's the first time I feel so scared. Whether you want to call him selfish or cowardly, he no longer has the confidence to protect her. If so... let's send Ah Li to a safe world, away from the chaos of war. In this era, live in peace there.

Without the memory of the Warring States Period, Ah Li would not be nostalgic for this place.

Without the memory of being in love with him, Ah Li would not be sad and painful.

Let him bear the pain of longing, it is what he deserves.

"Kari..." Inuyasha covered his eyes with his palms, but the tears kept gushing out between his fingers, and he couldn't stop.

After that, Inuyasha didn't talk to Sesshomaru for a few years, until the day he married Kikyo, he kept his promise and sent a wedding invitation to Sesshomaru, and Sesshomaru also went to the appointment as scheduled, and then there was an intersection again.But when Sesshomaru came to Maple Village, he saw that the bone-eating well that had been destroyed by him had been rebuilt. It was built by Inuyasha himself, so Sesshoumaru didn't do it again.It's a place full of memories, so let's keep it.

"How long are you going to stand there and watch?"

Sesshomaru's cold voice brought Inuyasha back from his memory.Inuyasha cleared his throat, coughed twice, "I can watch as long as I want, this is not your place."

"The Musashi Kingdom also belongs to the Western Territory."

"..." The king of the western realm is amazing!After rolling his eyes at Sesshomaru's back, Inuyasha walked to his side and looked at the Well of Bone Eating with him.Counting the days, Inuyasha lowered his eyebrows a little, and asked, "Is there only one year left in the time limit you can travel through?... Really don't want to go and see? It's okay to take a peek."

Since that day, like a tacit understanding, none of them mentioned Ah Li's name again.

"unnecessary."

"..." Inuyasha has thought about it hundreds of times over the past few years... no, thousands of times, right?Wanted to just jump down the well and bring her back.But when he thought that Sesshomaru had exchanged pain for Ah Li's safety in the past few years, it would disrupt the balance, so he didn't dare to do so.What's more, he himself didn't dare to face Ah Li who had forgotten him. "You came here to deal with Xiaoling and Hu Po's marriage, right? Time flies, and those two little devils have grown up now."

"I will stay in Maple Village for a few days, if nothing happens, don't bother me."

"..." She had no intention of chatting with him at all.Inuyasha stared at the back of the departing Sesshomaru, from displeasure to helplessness, and then to be considerate.The days in Fengzhi Village are also the days when he can relax. He has taken care of the western realm very well and is loved by the people, but he owns this country, but he always has a regret in his heart, so he has to use Busy to forget.

He looked at the natural teeth hanging from Sesshomaru's waist, and a sword tassel was attached to the hilt of the sword a few years ago. It was the jade ring of four souls on Ali's ring finger.

Inuyasha quietly looked into the well, and said softly, "Ki, do you know? That guy... misses you very much."

The author has something to say: Who will comfort Sesshomaru?
