Chapter 165 165
Tomioka Yoshiyuki dragged the drunk woman back to the wisteria house.
"Wait a minute, I'll open the door, I'll open the door..." Mr. Cheng who heard the footsteps hurriedly answered the door.He saw Tomioka Yoshiyuki dragging someone in, his face was surprised and flustered, "Your Excellency Shuizhu, Mrs. Ukita is... drunk again?"
Tomioka Yoshiyuki ignored his question and walked straight forward.On the contrary, it was the woman whose sleeves were being pulled by him. Mr. Chao Cheng greeted with a smile: "Good evening——"
"Night, good evening..." Mr. Cheng replied with some anxiety.
Just now, Your Excellency Shuizhu's complexion looked extremely bad.It was so cold, like a snow field.Could it be His Excellency Shuizhu and Mrs. Ushita who had a conflict?
Mr. Cheng poked his head to look at the backs of the two, and went to the kitchen very uneasy, calling for people to make tea for sobering up.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka takes Yuna back to her room.
With a sound of "dong", Yuna's knees lost strength, and she fell straight to the eaves.She still looked drunk, her dimples were slightly flushed, her eyes were watery, and she looked a little dazed.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki stood in front of her with a cold expression: "Where did you go tonight?"
She gestured and said, "Drink."
Yi Yong frowned and said, "I warned you not to go out at night. Why didn't you listen to me?"
Yuna thought for a moment, then said casually, "I want to drink."
Tomioka's courageous breath sank.
This reckless drunk woman!
"Explain, why do you have a ghost aura?" He frowned, his voice cold, "It was just yesterday, and it could be called a coincidence—you may have just met a ghost occasionally in the crowd. But today You also have a ghostly aura about you. This cannot be explained by 'coincidence'. What's going on here?"
After hearing this, Yuna was in a daze, and murmured, "Yeah...why? I don't know..."
"You guy..." Yi Yong's brows frowned even tighter.
Is she faking?Or really don't know?
"Even with my warning, I insisted on going out. Not only that, but I had been in contact with ghosts for a long time for two consecutive nights, so that the smell of blood and grave soil was left on my body. ——Today, you go see Who did it happen?" Yiyong's voice became colder and colder.
"Ah..." She held her chin and smiled slowly, "I met... ordinary people. Ordinary, drinking, friends. That's right, friends."
Her smile was delicate and soft, with a slight hint of alcohol; it was as if a lover had told a joke, teasing her to raise the corners of her lips.This kind of frivolous smile made Tomioka Yoshiyuki feel that he was fooled.
"Don't lie to me," his sea-colored eyes sank slightly, freezing the abyss like ice, "Who did you go to see?"
However, Yuna blinked and just repeated the previous answer: "Ordinary friends."
She is lying.Yoshiyuki Tomioka's intuition told himself so.His hand slowly moved onto the handle of the sun wheel, and suspicion slowly spread in his heart.
——If the woman in front of her is someone who can shield evil spirits, then things will develop in a bad direction.Yu Mao Tianyuan is the sound column, but his wife has become the eyeliner of the evil ghost, so the pair of lords and ghosts will be killed.
Teams are huge disadvantages.
Yuna squinted at him, seeing his hand on the handle of the knife, she smiled and said, "Are you doubting me...? Mr. Tomioka?"
Tomioka Yoshiyuki frowned and said nothing.
"Although I'm not a good person..." She breathed a sigh of relief, and with the strength of alcohol, she reached out and grabbed Tomioka Yoshiyuki's collar, "But I won't do anything to hurt you. Don't worry."
"you--"
Without noticing for a moment, Yiyong was grabbed by her neckline and dragged to her face.
The beautiful face of the woman was only an inch away from him.He clearly saw her eyelashes, long and dense, opening and closing like a lupine.A pair of eyes were covered with mist, vaguely reflecting his slightly surprised face.
too close.
It's a little... too close.It was so close that she could clearly smell the smell of her body, the smell of wine and incense mixed together, misty and misty.
Yoshiyuki Tomioka's eyebrows jumped, and for a moment, he wanted to back away impulsively.But this cowardly behavior never existed in his dictionary.He is not even afraid of death, nor should he be afraid of such indifferent things.
"I never said that." Yi Yong turned his head, not looking directly into her eyes, "I was just asking you, what's going on."
"...Really?" After a while, she let go of his collar and apologized meaninglessly afterwards, "I offended you, Mr. Tomioka."
Tomioka Yoshiyuki groaned in his heart, turned sideways in silence, and straightened his crooked collar.
"...I'll keep an eye on you," he said.
/ / /
Yuna didn't understand the meaning of the so-called "staring at you" until the next day.
The next morning, at dawn, she woke up from the alcohol, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a shadow on the paper door. It seemed to be a man sitting upright outside the door, and the morning light cast his shadow on the paper door of the shoji. superior.
Yuna:? !
She caressed her forehead, put on her robe, and slowly opened the sliding door, only to see a man kneeling upright outside the door——dressed in the uniform of the ghost killing team, wearing a different-colored feather young brunette.He raised his face, and looked at her coldly with sea-colored eyes: "Are you awake?"
It's Giyu Tomioka.
The light of the morning sun fell on his face through the wisteria tree.His fair face showed a calm and restrained color.
Yuna: ...
She had already sobered up and returned to her usual gentle demeanor. She also put away her hands and feet and saluted him: "Good morning, Your Excellency Shuizhu. What are you doing here...?"
After finishing speaking, he closed the neckline of his pajamas somewhat cautiously.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki glanced at the collarbone above her skirt, retracted it calmly, and said lightly: "As I said last night, I will always keep an eye on your movements."
Yuna was slightly taken aback.
Immediately, she smiled understandingly, and said softly: "I must have offended you after drinking and caused trouble for everyone....If you insist on doing this, then I will not stop you."
She didn't look angry at all, and there was generosity and tenderness in her eyes, which was completely different from the slightly messy and charming look after drinking.If she looked like a sweet red peony last night, then the red color of her now has faded, and she has turned into a quiet white gardenia.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki knelt aside silently.
Although Yuna couldn't remember exactly what happened when she was drunk last night, she vaguely remembered that she had a dispute with this Lord Shuizhu, and the other party was quite dissatisfied with her disobedience to persuasion and insisting on tricking ghosts.Perhaps, this is why Shuizhu chose to monitor her here.
... Forget it, he is willing to sit there and sit there.Anyway, he doesn't like to talk, and he doesn't make any noise at all.
Thinking of this, Yuna didn't care about him anymore.
/ / /
As she thought, Yoshiyuki Tomioka just sat quietly in the corridor without saying a word, just like the guard at the door of the lord.
Yiyong just watched her like this, watching her get up, have breakfast, clean up the room, and then read a book for a while.The books she was reading were about Western musical instruments. Yiyong didn't know about these, but she only knew that she would be more serious when reading.
The wisteria in the courtyard exudes a faint fragrance, and she sits among the purple Nahu in the courtyard, her skin and eyelashes are faintly stained with this blurred color.Although inappropriate, for a moment, Yiyong thought of the mountain legend told her by her sister when she was young——
"The princess in the flower core, there is only one season of spring. When the flowers wither, they will die. Therefore, Giyuu must not pick the flowers that bloom just right." This was a long time ago, my sister stories that have been told.
The Chinese food was delivered by Mr. Cheng, and he was very disturbed when he saw the two sitting opposite each other.
"You two... are you okay?" Mr. Cheng put the plate of lunch on the corridor and asked cautiously, "If there is any quarrel, let's sit down and have a good chat, it will definitely be resolved."
"It's okay." Yuna said with a smile.
"It's okay." Tomioka Yoshiyuki also replied.
This strange unanimous voice made Mr. Cheng even more uneasy.He was thinking in his heart that when His Excellency Yan Zhu came next time, he must tell him—as expected, Mrs. Yu Xiduo and His Excellency Shui Zhu couldn't get along either!His Excellency Zong Zhu said that "the water column is hated by everyone", it is true!
In the afternoon, Yuna went to the well to do laundry with the bucket in her hands.
"Is Your Excellency Shuizhu's team uniform okay?" When she was arranging clothes by the well, she suddenly asked Yiyong who was standing by, "Although I patched it up with a needle and thread, it probably doesn't fit."
Yoshiyuki Tomioka was slightly taken aback.
Team uniform...?
The clear sunlight fell down, and the skin of the woman standing by the well showed a strange soft luster.The flawless, pearl-like color makes people wonder at the injustice of the gods of Gao Tianyuan.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki looked at her busy appearance, and suddenly remembered that a few days ago, his team uniform was missing for a whole day. After returning from the disappearance, the uniform with a crack was strangely repaired and washed. It's done.
Mr. Cheng said that it was done by the new resident, "Umo's wife".
So Yoshihiro nodded hesitantly and said, "It fits well."
"That's good." The woman smiled slowly, a very comfortable smile.
"..." Tomioka Yoshiyuki turned his head sideways.After a moment of silence, he said, "You have to do laundry, don't you?"
"Ah."
"...Let me fetch water."
"what?"
She was a little surprised by Yoshiyuki Tomioka's sudden proposal.However, His Excellency Shuizhu obviously didn't pay much attention to the eyes of others. After he made up his mind, he rolled up the cuffs of his haori and team uniform, and lowered the wooden bucket for fetching water into the well.The arms were tense, and as soon as he pulled the rope, he lifted a bucket full of water from the well.
The water column, fetching water, seems to have no major problems.
Yuna looked at him in surprise for a while, then the expression on her face turned into a faint smile: "Thank you."
She squatted down by the well and soaked her clothes in the freshly boiled cold water, her skin was soaked by the water, and her skin became more and more translucent.When she wanted saponin, a hand beside her handed it over just right.
She looked up, but it was a silent righteousness, eyes lowered, and handed over what she needed without saying a word.
She smiled and didn't say much.
/ / /
The day time passed quickly, and the night gradually fell.Yuna glanced at the night outside and secretly felt distressed.
What if His Excellency the Pope can't wait for anyone and goes out to eat buffet?
Her eyes fell to the outside of the house, Yoshiyuki Tomioka bent his right knee and sat on the corridor looking at the wisteria flowers in the garden.Looking over from Yuna, he could only see his long black hair being blown by the wind, revealing a little quiet side face.
Nor can she ask this water column for help.
After all, Your Excellency Shui Zhu was still injured.Judging by the frequency of doctors' visits, His Excellency Shui Zhu's injury should not be serious.Not only that, the ghost killers of Zhu's level all go there on their own initiative when they hear about ghosts, and don't care whether they are injured or not. "Hunting ghosts" is almost the first essence of their existence.
Therefore, it is better not to let Yoshiyuki Tomioka know about the existence of His Excellency the Pope.
She didn't want to see Mr. Shuizhu adding new wounds to old wounds.
She thought for a while, and said to Tomioka Yoshiyuki: "Your Excellency Shuizhu, I am going to rest. Otherwise, you should go back to rest too?"
Yi Yong was slightly taken aback, turned his white and cold face, and asked, "Have you rested so early?"
"Because I drank alcohol for two consecutive days, I feel a little uncomfortable." She smiled shyly and said, "So, I still want to rest early."
"Then go to sleep, I'll watch over here." Tomioka Yoshiyuki said indifferently.
"...But, this is not very good." She was a little embarrassed, "You'd better go back."
"Why?" Tomioka Yoshiyuki was puzzled, "I just kept it outside the door."
Yuna smiled shyly, and said: "Ah, I am... Lord Tianyuan's wife, and to me, you are another man besides my husband. It's already night, and here is only The two of us. It just doesn't seem...inappropriate."
Her description was very euphemistic, but Yoshiyuki Tomioka still couldn't understand her words: "What do you mean by 'unsuitable'?"
"I have a husband, and you are another man. Letting others know that we are alone at night may cause misunderstanding." She bit the bullet and explained.
"?" Yoshiyuki Tomioka was confused, "Why did it cause a misunderstanding?"
"Because you are not my husband," she said, "you cannot stay here at night."
"?" Tomioka Yoshiyuki was extremely confused, "Why not?"
Yuna stared dead.
She gave up and Tomioka Yoshiyuki explained.
Lord Shuizhu may not understand how delicate the relationship between men and women is.In his eyes, he was just watching a suspicious person, or protecting her from evil spirits.Therefore, he didn't think about so many things, so he didn't understand why he left.
So Yuna decides to take practical action to save him.
"Okay then, please stay, Your Excellency Shuizhu." She said, untied the haori, and stretched out her hand to untie the belt around her waist.The unbound kimono was loose and slipped from his shoulders.The fair skin suddenly spread out in people's field of vision, like a piece of flawless snow, delicate and soft.
"You, what are you doing..." Seeing her shoulder, Tomioka Yoshiyuki stood up straight suddenly, his eyes and breathing were a little confused.
"Sleep..." She raised her head in doubt, "Don't tell me, Your Excellency Shuizhu, you wear your team uniform when you sleep?"
Yoshiyuki Tomioka: ...
It seems that there is some truth.
His eyes were a little confused, and from time to time they would fall on the woman's fair skin.In the end, he gritted his teeth, turned his head fiercely, and said, "Then you rest, I'm leaving."
Then, without looking at her again, he hurried down the steps, and his figure quickly disappeared behind the wisteria flowers.When a gust of wind came, only the purple flower spikes slowly rose, and his cold figure was no longer there.
"Good night, Your Excellency Shuizhu—" Yuna smiled and said softly to the empty courtyard.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki was finally sent away.
After the night became quieter, she breathed a sigh of relief, got up and put on her clothes, and quietly left the house of wisteria flowers.
/ / /
The night of the small town is the same as before, and there is prosperity and beauty under the darkness.
She stopped and walked among the crowd, and stopped in front of a two-story wine house.This is the place she made an appointment with His Excellency the Pope last night.
She went up the signboarded stairs to the second floor, and the floor under her feet creaked, creaked and creaked.Behind the red-painted lattice sliding door is a long and narrow corridor; on the paper doors on both sides, the figures of guests drinking and laughing are reflected.
There was a rustling sound, two geisha who had been summoned came out of the room holding shamisen wrapped in silk cloth, knelt and sat on the corridor, bent down to salute and thank tonight's named guests.
Immediately, they stood up and walked towards the corridor with small and quick steps.When she bowed her head, the flat hairpin on her temples cast a shadow on the wall, leaving a beautiful shape; she was wearing a plum-dyed silk kimono with a gorgeous and compelling color.
Yuna brushed past the two geisha and walked alone towards the room at the end of the corridor.The door was opened, and there was no one there, only the drinks brought by the proprietress were placed by the fireplace.In the tile table lamp, the flame core is burning thinly, reflecting a warm color on the yellowed paper door.
—It turns out that His Excellency the Pope has not come yet.
She breathed a sigh of relief and closed the paper door.
Maybe, he won't come tonight.
That's good too, in this way, there is no need to worry about His Excellency the Pope going out to eat at the buffet.
The only regret is that there are no free drinks tonight.
It's rare to be able to get drunk without caring about the image
Get drunk; after drinking, there are still men with beautiful faces who don't ask for fame, no regrets, no regrets, and self-sacrifice and sacrifices without compensation. What a rare blessing from heaven. (Except for poor technology, this cannot be forced. Life is not easy, uu sigh)
Yuna was thinking like this, when she suddenly heard a very light footstep coming from the direction of the balcony.
She raised her head subconsciously and glanced there.Immediately, Yuna's face froze—
Under the moonlight, a black-haired young man in a different-colored feather was falling from the railing to the ground.Haori was blown up by the wind and was slowly falling down.His condensed dark blue eyes looked like sharp arrows of ice under the moonlight.
"Water column...Your Excellency..." She murmured, not believing her eyes.
Tomioka Volunteer?
Didn't this guy go back to sleep?How would it appear here?
However, Tomioka Yoshiyuki had already slowly entered the room from the balcony, and a cold voice sounded in front of her: "I knew that you would never rest honestly. Trick me away, just to sneak out. Say it , who do you want to see here?"
Yuna couldn't hold back her smile.
Hello, Your Excellency Shuizhu, this is the case, I want to meet here a Shangxian evil spirit who is absolutely invincible to you who is injured now, and who can kill the whole town in one move.But don't be afraid, as long as I kiss him and coax him a few words, he will forget that he is a ghost, and he will become able to do nothing but drink, be wronged and act like a baby——
She would be a ghost if she dared to speak so bluntly! !
"That, that, Lord Shuizhu, are you coming to drink too? Please, please wait a moment," Yuna frowned slightly, secretly a little anxious.
I don't know when the Pope will come. If he finds out that there are ghost hunters here, His Excellency Shui Zhu's life may be in danger.
She is not questioning Zhu's ability, she knows that Zhu people are very powerful.But Shui Zhu recuperated in the Wisteria House because of the previous battle with Shangxian and the serious injury he fell?His injury is completely fine, right?
"Don't say unnecessary words," Tomioka Yoshiyuki looked around, "Who are you waiting for here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuna heard the faint voice of Tong Mo joking with the proprietress of the tavern in the distance.To be honest, when Tong Mo acted as a human being, he was very good at coaxing women, and he was able to make the proprietress of the tavern smile.
"Ah, ah, what kind of religion are you talking about, my guest? I've never heard of it! Oh yes, the lady has already arrived, and is waiting for you to drink with me... Really!"
"Wan-shi-ji~le~. Can you hear me clearly?" Tong Mo's voice was grinning, "It's a sect that can bring you incomparable happiness..."
Yuna heard Tong Mo's voice from a distance, and took a slight breath.
The top priority is to hide Tomioka Giyuu.
"Well, Lord Shuizhu, listen to me, please hide first..." She grabbed Yiyong's hand and begged.
Yoshiyuki Tomioka ignored her words at all, but stared carefully at every corner of the room, as if looking for the possible hiding place of the evil spirit.
Yuna had no choice but to push him.
But how could her strength surpass that of righteousness?After only two or three pushes, Yi Yong grabbed her wrist with a cold face and said, "What are you doing?"
Yuna tried to earn money, but she was not his match at all.Yiyong's strength was great, and he didn't show any sympathy or compassion for the woman, and almost dislocated her wrist.
You have to find a way to let him go.
What should be done to let this experienced swordsman, who has hunted countless ghosts, show his flaws?
Yuna narrowed her eyes.
The next moment, she stood on tiptoe and approached the man's face; while he was still guarding the door, she quietly pecked on his lips.
A kiss as light as a swallow passed over his lips.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki was momentarily stunned.
Wait, wait a minute...?Just now it was...
Before he could react to what happened, the woman broke free from the restraint of his hands, pushed him in a daze to the balcony, and then closed the sliding door of the balcony with a bang.
"If you want to live, don't come in," she said.
The next moment, the front door opened, and His Holiness the Pope bent over and came in with a smile on his face, and said to her, "Ah, I'm here with my wallet. Don't dislike me for not bringing enough money tonight."
Yoshiyuki Tomioka, who was pushed to the balcony, still looked dull.
Just... what happened?
