Yukimura's shadow

This March is extraordinarily lively.

On the night of Doll's Day, Nagasawa Masami dreamed of her family in Kyoto.

She hadn't had a dream for a long time, not to mention that this dream was so real that it made her feel as if she had passed away, which reminded her of the first time she escaped from hell.

But this seems to be a little different from that time.The sun is setting, the shadows of the trees are whirling, and the red light transitions from layer to layer from the horizon, like the paint on the golden paper folding fan layer by layer, or like the fire cloud that should not appear in this season.

The bluestone slabs that go up the mountain are brightly illuminated by the sun, but they are extraordinarily cold when you step on them.She trotted up with her bare feet holding the hem of the skirt, her feet were actually covered with a lot of moisture, sticky as if there was a suction force coming from the ground, which made people uncomfortable.

Is this hell?

Master Ghost Lamp——

She yelled, but there was no reaction around her, not even the birds were alarmed.

She felt a little strange in her heart, but somehow she ran again, and even this doubt was quickly forgotten.

She didn't go to the front yard for sightseeing, but walked directly along the path back to the place where everyone lived on weekdays.

The senior brothers and sisters were busy making arrangements, and there were people walking back and forth in the courtyard. Yamei looked over and saw that they were all carrying various food boxes.The food box is exquisite and small, the body of the box is made of high-quality mahogany, and the flowers and birds are carved by famous artists, and the outside is covered with a layer of wax, which looks bright and clean.

The food boxes are tightly sealed layer by layer, and I don't know what dishes are in them.But based on past habits, Yami could guess that they were probably going to the east wing for dinner.

The traditional Japanese prefer the north and east, especially the east. The north is convenient for lighting, and the "left east" based on the north is where the sun rises.If we want to explain it according to the Chinese theory of yin and yang, the square corner of the east, that is, the left is the place where yang qi occurs.The east is Mude, which refers to the virtue of the king, loves benevolence, and expresses the life of spring.So no matter from which point of view, the status of these two orientations is very important.

The ancestral house of the Nagasawa family faces south, and most of the important things are stored in the east wing. Only the master is eligible to live there.

Yamei couldn't help but followed them to the east wing. No one found her in the long queue.The east and west rooms are similar in overall appearance, but there is a universe inside. Yamei has not been here a few times, but the impression is particularly deep.

Two neat rows of futons and small tables were set up at both ends of the room. Usually, they would kneel directly on the tatami mats. It was rare to see futons as enjoyable things. It seemed that Master was in a good mood today.But there is nothing on the forehand seat except a small table. Master has always been strict with himself and never used a futon.

"Yami."

Eh?

Yami was staring at the futon in a daze, but suddenly heard Master calling her name.She responded subconsciously, and hurriedly turned her head away, only to find that the master was talking to the eldest brother.

"How's Yami?" Master said as he walked in from the door.He walked around to the side of the room so that the disciples could serve the meal. The elder brother followed him a small half step, and the two were talking in a low voice.

"I'm still in the nursing home at Amanohashidate, and my uncle has already rented a house there, but my aunt has struggled to fly back and forth between France and Japan in the past few months." These are all the news he heard from the hospital.

"I heard that junior sister has reacted recently, maybe she will wake up sometime..." The senior brother wanted to persuade the master, but he couldn't help being a little worried.When the master and the old man heard that he was not convinced, his expression was not very good.

"Tsk... After that incident happened, I said that this child cannot be raised like this, so I must listen—"

Yamei was startled, and was about to get closer to listen more carefully, when she suddenly turned around, she opened her eyes again and returned to the room she usually lived in.

Normally, she would definitely have doubts about the information in Master's words, but maybe because she was in a dream, before she had time to think, her thinking was taken to another direction.

Someone was putting something on her windowsill.

She leaned over to take a look, no wonder she didn't see Junior Sister at the banquet just now, it turned out to be in her room.

It's been a long time. I don't know if this little girl has practiced well...

Na——

"Sister Yami is really..." Yami was about to say hello when the girl started talking to herself.

The girl muttered as she put the things on the window sill. She was not tall enough, so she could only put the things on tiptoe.

It seems that she is not satisfied with the angle, and she has been adjusting it.

It was a Girl's Day doll, and it looked like one of the five young children.

Japan's Hinamatsuri is one of the few festivals in the world dedicated entirely to girls.Families with girls usually place Dolls' Day dolls a few days before Doll's Day, and the number and grade of dolls are also particular, which reflects the status of a family.

However, dolls should not be placed for a long time, especially after the festival, they must be put away in time. It is said that this can affect the marriage of girls.If you visit for too long, you may not be able to get married.

Junior sister Xu stole one from the puppet juvenile altar for all the girls in the main hall. This affects the girls of the whole clan. If she is found out, the master will definitely not spare her.

What a fool.

Yami sighed and was about to reprimand her when she continued.

"Hmph, if she doesn't come back, I'll keep this doll here forever, and then she will stay with me for the rest of her life, and she won't be able to marry—"

"Wow! How am I so smart!"

... Really young and immature - need to clean up!

----

About leaving, Nagasawa Masami thought for a long time and decided to tell Yukimura Seiichi that even though she had concealed the part about her life, she was still a little hard to speak.She had been mentally preparing for a long time, but she didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so flat.

"Huh? What are you so surprised for?" Seeing the other party staring at him blankly, Yukimura raised his eyebrows. His voice, which had just recovered a lot, still had a hoarse voice. In short, Masami felt that although it was different from his usual gentle tone, it did not sound hoarse.

It seemed that the originally beautiful white moonlight suddenly had a bit of dusty smell, which was not annoying, but even more tempting.

"...I..." Yami paused, and lowered her head a little discouraged.

When she came, Yukimura was bathing in the sun and reading in the morning. He was sitting on the ground with the book tray in both hands. Because he was talking to Masami, he put the book down, but still held it in his hand.

Masami was originally sitting on one side leaning on his shoulder, but now she was pouted with a displeased expression, looking extremely childish.Seeing her like this, Yukimura felt inexplicably cute, and his heart was a little whimsical.

Yami didn't know what was going on in his heart, she was still struggling with her little emotions.Without saying a word, she slowly opened Yukimura's fingers, and Yukimura obeyed her movements with a smile, and simply put the book aside.

Yami lay down and pillowed on his lap very naturally, dragged his left hand with both hands and played with it, still pouted childishly.

"Honestly, I'm a little disappointed." She went on and on, and decided to tell the other party her little emotions openly, but after she finished speaking, she even frowned, "Although I don't know why..."

Seeing her seriously thinking, Yukimura couldn't help laughing.With a little force on his left hand, it happened to fit between her fingers, and they interlocked.

Masami froze for a moment and planned to take her hand back, but Yukimura did not twitch but clenched her hand even tighter.

"What's there to be disappointed about?"

"..."

"Do you understand what I mean?" He looked down at the girl on his lap, and when she heard his voice, she raised her head slightly to look at him, revealing a fair and slender neck.

There was a trace of bewilderment and hope in her eyes, the blue pupils were like transparent lake water, revealing her emotions without any concealment, the waves of her eyes flowed, and there was no contradiction between the two different emotions mixed together.

Yami felt her mind was a little messed up. She had guesses in her heart and was a little happy, but she was also a little uneasy because the other party only watched her play tricks and didn't speak.

She glanced at the clasped fingers of the two, then looked up at him again.

Does this... mean you won't let go?

...

"...Wait a minute, let go of my hand first, this position is a bit uncomfortable." After much deliberation, she still thought this matter was more important.

Yukimura: "…"

What happened when the atmosphere was suddenly destroyed?

"Then when are you leaving?" Yukimura let go of her hand as he said.The latter turned slightly sideways, facing his knee, and lightly poked his leg with his index finger, in a non-painful but seductive way.With the movement of her turning over, the long hair spread out, and the strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, which was quite messy. Yukimura used his left hand to smooth out all the messy long hair, and then pinned it behind her ear.

"I don't know..." Masami replied casually, after all, she didn't know when the ghost lamp would summon her to hell, and whether she could return to Xingcun after going to hell was also a question of great suspense.

Suddenly thinking of the dream of the previous two days, thinking of the puppet that the junior sister put on the window sill, Yamei laughed a little.

Why do I have the feeling that I hate being married...

"Maybe it disappeared suddenly," she added.

Thinking about it this way, I feel quite regretful.

Yukimura paused for combing her hair, the two of them enjoyed the peace, and even their breathing became softer.

He glanced at the sunlight outside the window, then looked down at his watch.

Eight fifty-five.

"Yami." He said suddenly.

Masami Nagasawa let out a casual hum, she didn't know whether it was because the sun was too warm or this man made her feel better, but she felt drowsy again.

"Let's run away."

Nagasawa Masami was startled and suddenly lost sleepiness.
