My Aunt is Martin
Chapter 40
The money-obsessed author wanted to earn a few more cents, so he turned on the anti-theft door,
Therefore..,
After careful consideration..,
Double Edged Blade finally decided to tell Hijikata Toshizo and the others about his thoughts and guesses. Also, they had been kept in the dark all this time..,
They did not know that Jiazhou Qingguang and the others had all kinds of private schemes of Double Edged Blade.
As expected by Double Edged Blade, although Hijikata Toshizo and the others were surprised when they found out about these things, they quickly calmed down..,
They began to investigate these guesses and ideas.
As for Jiazhou Qingguang and the others..,
"Seriously, whether it's big brother Red Heart or big brother Changzeng Mi..,
They actually hid such an important matter from us for so long and didn't tell us,
This is too much, and they even said that we are companions,
Hmph, they don't trust us so much. "
He looked at the two big brothers of the Shinseng Group angrily,
Jiazhou Qingguang pouted and complained in dissatisfaction,
At the same time, he turned his head and refused to make eye contact with Double Edged Blade, who had 'made a mistake', to express his dissatisfaction.
"Sorry, sorry, we didn't mean to. We just felt that there was no evidence that could convince people at that time,
It's just our paranoid guesses, that's all.
That's why we didn't tell you.
Originally, we just didn't want you to have a headache with us,
I didn't expect that... it's really not that we don't trust you. "
It seemed that it wasn't just Jiazhou Qingguang..,
Even Mamoru Yamato, Mamoru Izumi, and even Kunihiro and the others nodded in agreement because of Qingguang's Hu Che. Red Heart hurriedly explained with a bitter smile on his face.
Even though they didn't know that when the enemy came, their expectations would be more realistic, but in the end, his original intention was to prevent them from being wiped out. He didn't have any strong evidence to prove his conjecture, so he didn't want them to be as worried as he was.
"Even though that's true, and we all know that you're doing this for our own good, Big Brother Chixin, we still feel unhappy. If we had a choice, we would also like to be able to shoulder more responsibilities like you, instead of putting most of the burden on you!"
Although Kazumi Mamoru could understand that Akeshi Chouguang and the others were thinking for their own good and didn't want them to be as nervous as them, Kazumi Mamoru was still very unhappy. It wasn't just because he was unhappy about being kept in the dark, but more because he felt that he couldn't make Akeshi Chouguang and the others believe that he could bear more unhappiness.
Although he would always complain that this was not a job that should be done by Swords, when it came to a critical moment, Mamoru Izumi still hoped that his companions would feel that he had the ability and confidence to take on the responsibility.
"I'm sorry... it's all my fault..."
"Okay, okay, since Changzeng Mi and the others have admitted their mistakes, then we'll forgive them. After all, they did this for our own good. What do you think, Canessan?"
"Since you said so, Horikawa … but!
Changzeng Mi, Red Heart, next time!
Absolutely!
You can't keep saying that it's for our own good and hide things from us! "
Seeing that Red Heart and Changzeng Mi Hucha were annoyed by Izumi Mamoru Kaneda's confession, Horikawa Kunihiro hurriedly came out to help mediate the situation, intending to let this matter go.
Hearing Horikawa Kunihiro's persuasion, and knowing that he didn't intend to get angry with Red Heart and the others over this matter, Mamoru Izumi awkwardly went along with Kunihiro's words and expressed that he forgave them.
"Don't worry, it won't happen again."
"That's more like it, huh?
Horikawa, what's wrong? "
"Kanesan …" Horikawa Kunihiro pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the sounds coming from outside the house. His expression was a little hesitant. "Did you hear that something seemed to be happening outside the house? I don't know what they are saying, but it's very noisy …"
"Is it?
Let me hear it... it sounds a little messy... "
Although Mamoru Izumi wasn't as good as Angai in terms of detection, he was still much more sensitive than humans. After concentrating hard to listen to the sounds coming from outside the house, he also heard something similar to an argument, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"I don't know what's going on... Anyway, let's go take a look first."
Although he didn't know if the sudden noise was related to the Ghost Clan or the Time Reversal Army, it was better to be safe than sorry. Red Heart decided to go out and take a look.
And it turned out that Red Heart's decision was very timely, because when Multiblade arrived, the troublemakers seemed to be planning to retreat.
"Mr. Yamanami!"
His eyes were full of Shannan Keisuke, whose clothes and hair were a little messy after fighting with others. Chixin Chongguang hurriedly rushed to his side and blocked Shannan Keisuke behind him in a vigilant posture.
And after him, the other Multiblades also rushed to their respective masters, and looked at the group of people led by the blonde youth with hostility.
"Interesting, really interesting, I didn't expect this little Shinsengumi to have so many hidden talents. Other than the few of you who have barely touched the limits of humans, there are still people who can make me instinctively wary... It seems that I really made the right decision to come here."
Originally, he didn't plan to confront the Shinsengumi so early, but because he discovered that in addition to the forces he currently knew, there was another force that seemed to have discovered Chizuru Yukimura's identity as a pure-blood Ghost, and wanted to capture her to threaten him and Tsunamichi Yukimura. The blonde youth, the leader of the Fujen Clan who led the Western Ghost Clan, Chikage Fuuma, changed his plan. Before the Satsuma Domain joined the battle between the Shinsengumi and the Tobaku Faction, he came to the Shinsengumi in an attempt to take away his fiancée, the last pure-blood female Ghost of the Eastern Ghost Clan, Chizuru Yukimura.
But to Chikage Fuuma's surprise, after learning of his identity and intentions, and after he clearly told her that he could take her to find her adoptive father, Tsunamichi Yukimura, not only did Chizuru Yukimura not agree to leave with him, but even the Shinsengumi, who were supposed to be wary of the Ghost Clan, were willing to draw their swords against him in order to protect Chizuru Yukimura.
Although this proved that he had a good eye, and as his fiancee, Chizuru Yukimura's charm was not to be underestimated, for the conceited Chikage Fuuma, Chizuru Yukimura actually dared to reject his good intentions. This made him very dissatisfied, and he vented his anger on the Shinsengumi.
However, what Chikage Fuuma did not expect was that after he gave a little warning to the Shinsengumi, trying to make them understand that Chizuru Yukimura was not a woman they could covet, and that they should pay attention to protecting Chizuru Yukimura, just as he was about to leave, a group of people dressed in different clothes suddenly appeared. Some of them were even wearing the Shinsengumi's uniform. They were unfamiliar faces that he had not seen in the information before, and they made him instinctively feel wary and uneasy. This made Chikage Fuuma, who had a rather arrogant personality and thought that no one would be a match for him as a pure-blood Ghost, become interested. He wanted to see just how strong these people were, who made him wary just by standing there.
"Breaking into the Shinsengumi's camp without permission, you … who the hell are you?"
From the annoying tone of the person in front of him, Red Heart guessed that he was the leader of the people who had just attacked Mr. Yamanami and the others. Red Heart's tone was very stiff.
Although there was no conclusive evidence, unlike Chizuru Yukimura, who he could not be sure of, this blonde guy had a very obvious aura that was different from humans. It was somewhat similar to the Rakshasa he met the other day, but it gave Red Heart a purer feeling.
Even if there was no other evidence, Red Heart dared to assert that this guy was a legendary Ghost.
Since he was a Ghost who might be in cahoots with the Time Reversal Army, and the leader of the people who attacked Keisuke Yamanami and the others, Red Heart's rare cold attitude towards strangers was understandable.
"Chikage Fuuma, also a pure-blood Ghost who leads the Western Ghost Clan, came here this time only to take away my fiancée. Who asked you to be just a mere human? It's your honor to be able to stay by Chizuru Yukimura's side for so long, and you actually dare to stop me from taking her away. Hmph, if it weren't for Chizuru Yukimura, I would have completely gotten rid of you troublesome guys.
But it doesn't matter, when the war between the Shogunate and the Tobaku faction begins, I will have plenty of opportunities to completely get rid of you annoying guys. "
"Oh, completely get rid of you?!
You sure talk big. It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know the immensity of heaven and earth! "
Red Heart was already very unhappy with Chikage Fuuma's arrogant attitude. When she heard his tone was full of regret and dissatisfaction for not being able to get rid of the Shinsengumi because of Chizuru Yukimura's obstruction, Red Heart could not help but laugh in anger.
Chikage Fuuma only relied on his superior physical fitness to withstand the attacks of Mr. Yamanami and the others. If it was purely in terms of swordsmanship, it would be impossible for him to escape unscathed from the Shinsengumi and the others. How dare he act so fierce here, in front of Fu Mourning God, and even threaten to get rid of the Shinsengumi and the others one day?!
If she did not teach Chikage Fuuma the importance of being humble and polite, she would not be Red Heart!
After making things clear, Masayuki Minamoto, or Red Heart, found that his relationship with Multiblade had improved a lot. This made him temporarily forget his worries about Yamato Moriyasu and feel that he should be able to adjust his mentality. It was not until after dinner that Red Heart realized that she seemed to have underestimated the impact of her sudden appearance on Mamoru Yamato. So after a hurried dinner, Red Heart hurriedly followed Jiazhou Qingguang to look for Mamoru Yamato, who was not in the Okita Gumi headquarters.
"What's wrong, Yamato?
You look listless. Are you not happy to see me again? "
After searching for a while, Red Heart finally saw Yamato Moriyasu lying on the lawn not far from the headquarters, looking up at the night sky in a daze. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and walked over to sit beside Yamato.
"No, no, I'm naturally very happy to see Red Heart, it's just that …"
"Just what?
Just thinking about Okita Kun?
Thinking about how depressed he was after he helped Mr. Yamanami?
Thinking that if Mr. Yamanami did not leave the team, Okita Kun would not have to take on the task of helping him, and would not be sad because of it?
Is it because you think like this that you feel that you can't face me? "
"Brother Red Heart … I'm sorry … I shouldn't have thought like this …"
Hearing Red Heart's straightforward and undisguised words, Yamato Moriyasu could not help but straighten up and look at him. Half of his eyes were surprised that his thoughts were guessed, and the other half was guilt for his dark thoughts.
"It's okay. I can understand why you would think that way. After all, just like how you look forward to Okita-kun, I also look forward to Syamanna-san … Everyone has dark and selfish thoughts. I've thought about it more than once. Syamanna-san was so good to Okita-kun, caring and loving him as if he was his own younger brother, but he still mercilessly brought Syamanna-san back to the Shinsengumi. In the end, Syamanna-san had no choice but to end his own life due to the disappointment of not being able to fulfill his dreams and the pain of betraying his companions.
Back then, I was just like Mr. Yamanami. I liked to talk about big things more than anyone else, but in the end … "
"It's not like that, Brother Red Heart!
That's not what I meant, I … "Seeing Red Heart's lonely expression because of his words, Yamato Moriyasu did not have time to think about the knot in his heart. He hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, but Red Heart interrupted him with a smile.
"You don't have to explain, I understand. Just like how Mr. Yamanami looked at Okita Kun like he was his brother, to me, you and Qing Guang are like my brothers. How can an older brother blame his younger brother for his own mistakes?
After all, Mr. Yamanami knew that leaving the team for no reason was tantamount to betrayal, but he still did it without hesitation. Okita Kun was only fulfilling his duty. Mr. Yamanami chose to commit seppuku. Everything Okita Kun did was to alleviate his pain.
Instead of saying that I resent Okita Kun because of this, it would be better to say that I am grateful to him, Mr. Kondo, and Mr. Toshizo. After all, under the premise that Mr. Yamanami betrayed them, they could have killed him on the spot, but in the end … in the end, they still gave Mr. Yamanami a dignified death that belongs to a samurai. At least in the end … Mr. Yamanami died as a samurai, and not as a … a traitor of the Shinsengumi. I am very satisfied. "
"Brother Red Heart …"
"Yamato, did you know?
Actually, after Mr. Yamanami died, I thought about it more than once. I thought about how Mr. Yamanami liked the Shinsengumi so much, and how much he liked everyone in the Shinsengumi. Why did he choose to leave in the end?
Was it because he was gradually being replaced by Mr. Yi Dong?
No, because Mr. Yi Dong was also Mr. Yamanami's good friend. Mr. Yi Dong was also very happy for Mr. Yamanami that he was able to be put in an important position.
Was it because of the dispute with Mr. Kondo?
No, they were good friends for many years, and it's not like they didn't have fierce disputes.
Then why was it?
I thought about it for a long time, and I finally figured it out. "
