Chapter 487 [Chapter 2] 47
After gradually getting used to the darkness, with the help of a little light from the window into the room, Liu Quan saw a smile on the face of the head of the room.
"Good boy." He leaned close to her ear and whispered.
Then he just smiled slightly, walked around her very naturally by leaning forward, walked to the spread out bedding on the tatami, knelt down gracefully, then turned his head, and turned to face the girl who was still standing there. She held out a hand.
"Come here, Xinya." His voice became more mellow and full of magnetism in the dark night.
"Come here."
Liu Quan:? !
She looked silently at the hand, palm up, reaching out to her.
Munakata Reiji's fingers were long and fair, and except for the thin layer of calluses on the palms due to the use of the sword, they looked like a pair of artist's hands; and Zhou Fangzun's wide, powerful, calloused, strong and rough hands were almost like a pair of hands. The boxer, with his masculine, powerful hands, looked nothing alike.
However, these hands manipulated a force as powerful as Brother Zun's fire power.Moreover, these hands are also good at putting together tens of thousands of pieces of jigsaw puzzles, flipping through important documents related to the center, reality and future of this country, pressing the long sword at the waist when meeting enemies and opponents, with a bang "Munakata, draw your sword!" After the ultimatum, he drew out the sword named Sirius, dealt a heavy blow to the opponent, and maintained the order and righteousness of this world——
These hands also used to hold her handmade chocolate and put it into his mouth. He once took her hand and rushed to the Hirazaka Building together in the streets late at night in order to rescue the members of the enemy club. After breaking up, he took off his collar badge and put it in her hand as a white Valentine's Day return gift. When the blue sword in the sky made a clattering sound and seemed to be about to fall, he held her by the shoulder. Because the power of blue was on the verge of losing control, blue sparks shot from his body to hers along the slender fingers.
Also, those hands once slid across her whole body, walking slowly on the surface of her skin, as if clusters of small flames were ignited wherever they passed, leading her to the highest joy and bliss——
Liu Quan moved his steps almost unconsciously, took a few steps forward, and held that hand.
Munakata Reishi showed a slightly surprised expression at that moment.
"Your hands are cold—what are you upset about, Xinya?" He asked softly.
It was only then that Liu Quan realized that her hand had lost its temperature. Now that she was holding Munakata Reisi's warm hand, her five fingers were even colder and slightly convulsed.
She didn't say anything, but sat down beside him in the same way - she didn't use the kneeling method, but just sat down in a normal way, and then leaned over to his side naturally, using the other hand The hands that were not held wrapped around his waist, and she silently pressed her forehead against his shoulder blades.
This behavior, like a lost little beast seeking comfort, seemed to surprise the head of the room for a moment.A sound of "Oh~?!" came out of his throat, showing that he did not expect to encounter such a situation; but although he is not good at smoothing hair, he has indeed studied the routines of those third-rate love novels seriously. So at this time, he didn't ask questions immediately, but stretched out his other hand, crossed her shoulder, put it on the back of her head, and stroked her hair.
……Oops.
Tears rushed into Liu Quan's eyes in an instant.She had to grit her teeth and tense her body, and barely endured the impulse.
Thanks to this dark night, her gaffe was covered by the darkness, so that she could not be found.
However, the tenseness of her body just now is of course impossible not to be noticed by the keen head of the room.
There was a slight pause in his strokes of her hair, and then his hand stayed on top of her head without moving.His voice resounded in the darkness of the room.
"What do you want to say?... Do you have something to tell me, Xinya?"
Liu Quan was at a loss for a moment, and suddenly felt a shudder all over his body.It took a few seconds for her to realize that the shudder was coming from deep inside her, like a scream from the soul.
Scared.
fear.
Intense sadness and refusal to believe.
A flood of negative emotions surged up, almost overwhelming her instantly.
What to say?
My time limit for saying sorry is almost up, shall we call it a day?
Say I'm leaving, I don't know if I can come back, so I wish you happiness?
Say you will remember me in the future?Speaking of the day when you grow old, when most of the things you have experienced in this life are like passing clouds, will you still think of me?
...Definitely, I will remember.Because people will not so easily forget that at a certain moment in their lives, they raised their swords and planned to kill themselves.
...Because people will not easily forget the people they once loved deeply.
"Speaking of..."
She hesitated to speak.
"If I never come back, Reishi-kun... what do you want to do in the future?"
Ah finally said it.she thinks.
Don't say it... I'm not reconciled.
Just leave like this... I'm not reconciled.
Reisi Munakata sat up straight with a slightly surprised expression on his face.This action caused the two of them to separate from their original hugging posture, and his narrow eyes looked at her in the darkness through the dim light from the window through the lenses of thin-rimmed glasses.Rather than looking at it, it is better to say it is to examine—as if trying to see something from her desperate, desperate look.
Then, he suddenly laughed softly, lowered his eyelids slightly, and shook his head, as if he seemed a little helpless against her unreasonable recklessness and stubbornness.
"Me," his voice sounded steadily in the dark night, "I will probably do what the chairman said five years ago, hand him over to my country to take responsibility, and then move on."
Liu Quan: "...It really is like this."
She lowered her gaze, and her voice was low and soft, like the water flowing slowly in the small pool in the courtyard of Munakata's family.
"Perhaps this is the reason why Dresden Stone chose Li Sijun as the king."
"Because you are the most suitable person to be the king."
"Even if the stone slab disappears one day, the sanctuary disappears one day, the sword of Damocles disappears one day... Even if I am not chosen as king, it is impossible to stop Reishi-kun, and it is impossible Let Li Sijun ignore the responsibility that this country and this world can shoulder."
"I've thought so many times—"
On the streets of London late at night, in the dense forest of Hakodate before dawn, on the street also named "Fushimi", in that magnificent magic castle that only exists in fairy tales and legends——
I was thinking of you as I passed those enchanted stone statues that could sing.I am thinking of you as I pass the streets of foreign countries filled with colorful lights.I'm thinking of you as I sit by the side of the road where one of the most brutal battles in history has just taken place, with blood running down the street.Even when the bullet pierced through the waist and abdomen, the blood and vitality seemed to flow from the terrible wound together, lying on his back in the deserted woods, looking at the piece of trees above his head that was divided into seven pieces by the dense tree crowns and branches and leaves. When the sky is falling, I am thinking of you.
The person you will think of at the last moment of your life, this is the person you love from the bottom of your heart.
When she held the bottle of water left by Shannan, what she thought in her heart was just to satisfy the deputy chief's wish, to survive until the end that he could live together.
...Isn't it also because she remembered the last words that the head of the room left her, and hoped that she would still work hard to live when everyone was already desperate.
Even if you feel that it is impossible to meet again in the future, do you still have to stubbornly abide by the promise that no one knows?
...Simply, like a fool?
Tears slowly condensed on the long eyelashes, and she blinked them down just in time, silently.
"I think Li Sijun is such a person." She said.
Reiji Munakata smiled silently in the darkness.
"...If you want to ask me other things, I can't think about answering them seriously?" He said in an understatement tone.
What the hell is going on with that [final crazy sale 12 hours before closing] attitude!
Liu Quan sniffed secretly.
"Then if I never come back..."
She hesitated.
"What kind of person will Reishi-kun be in the future?"
Munakata Reiji smiled subtly.
"Didn't you already guess it just now? ... Well said, I don't think there is anything to add."
Liu Quan seemed to be choked by him for a moment, and then it seemed that a certain plug in his heart was pulled out.
"I want to know what kind of family the future Li Sijun will choose..."
"Is it the same as the chairman's expectation, enough to meet the expectations of the people for the leader...uh..."
Hearing her stammering and pointless questions, Munakata Reishi laughed out loud.
"Xin Ya-jun, do you have any difficult questions? I thought nothing could trouble you?"
What's up with that smug and narrow tone, hey!
His laughter was deep and beautiful, and in this position where they were almost leaning on each other and so close, she could even feel his chest vibrate faintly due to the laughter.
...I really like how to do it.Even if the person is laughing at himself right now, it's still nice to like what to do.
Fortunately, Munakata Reiji didn't stop laughing for a long time, he paused, as if organizing his words.Then he simply said in a very straightforward manner:
"I haven't thought about it so far."
"Maybe it's because I subconsciously feel that my age still has room for people to slowly consider it, or I have been busy dealing with various issues related to the slate over the years-including the 'kings', including their clan, including those who were born Incidents created by 'outsiders' in the United States—I haven't given much thought to this issue."
In the dark night, he paused for a moment, and then leaned slightly towards her, wrapping his arms around her body, embracing her body.
Despite the warmth of his embrace, his tone was unbelievably flat and rational.
"However, if you have never returned as a prerequisite...if you want to accept the entrustment of the imperial lord and assume all the responsibilities of this country," his voice was as calm as a drop of water falling from the eaves in the middle of the night. dew.
"If in order to take on that responsibility I had to be required to have a legal partner who lived up to the national expectations of a woman, then I would do that."
