After having lunch,

The teenagers from the tennis club were going to start a new activity halfway up the mountain. Junka Hoshino asked Tsurumaru Kuninaga to go with them,

To protect them.

Tsuru Maru reached out his hand,

He scratched her nose and said seriously, "Don't let me do such a boring thing next time."

Junka smiled and apologized.

"But the crane is very trustworthy," she said.

Tsuru Maru was a very reliable knife in her heart.

"... even if the master says so,

However..,

From my point of view, after I finally came to this world from This Pill,

I want to stay by the master's side more than protect people who are unrelated to me. "

His frank words successfully made Junka blush.

"Strictly speaking, they're not unrelated people." She argued, "They're my classmates — my classmates."

"Oh -" Tsuru Maru stretched out his voice and asked, "Then, master,

If we fall into the water at the same time as them,

Which side will you save first? "

..

Junka thought for a moment,

Then she raised her hand and punched him.

Tsuru Maru was stunned.

"Don't think too much," she scolded, but a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Tsuru Maru looked at her,

As if he had understood something, he couldn't help but smile.

-

"Senior King Ren,

Do you think someone is following us? "Qie Yuan Chi also touched his arm,

Goosebumps appeared on his arm. "I always feel very uneasy."

"Pfft,

Maybe it's Hoshino's retainer. "King Ren looked back and didn't see anyone.

"It's someone she arranged to protect us." Yagyuu Birushi pushed up his glasses and intentionally or unintentionally moved closer to King Ren,

Then he said, "After all, she has always emphasized the dangers of the mountain. It's not surprising that she would do such a thing."

"Huh?" Qie Yuan said unhappily, "I say, senior, don't you all trust her too much?

You believe her words so easily and even automatically find reasons for her actions! "

The other seven people's gazes all fell on him.

Qie Yuan could not help but gulp and take a step back.

"I say, you are very strange, Akaya."

Marui Bunta put his hand on Chihara Akiya's shoulder and asked on behalf of everyone, "Why are you so wary of them?"

Qie Yuan blinked blankly.

"Don't you think they're dangerous?" he asked.

Not to mention those young men, even the little boys who were only as tall as his waist gave him a sharp feeling, as if a sword had been unsheathed from its scabbard, piercing him to the point of pain.

"It is very dangerous."

Liu Lianer flipped open the notebook and said calmly, "Strength, speed, and strength — from a simple observation, they have all of them. Moreover, they are wearing real swords."

"As well as being extremely loyal to the master."

Xing Cun continued, pausing for a moment before changing his tone. "But it's also because they're extremely loyal to Hoshino that they won't do anything to harm us."

Everyone fell silent.

"That's all," he said. "We'll leave tomorrow morning. Don't think too much about it today."

Sanada Shunichiro, who was leading the team, stopped and turned around. His face was a little dark.

"Too lax!" he yelled. "Instead of thinking too much, it's better to do your own things well!

Now, start running around the mountainside! "

"Eh?" "No way!" "Vice Minister, we just finished eating!"

The atmosphere that was slightly silent just now became lively again in the blink of an eye.

In the distance, the young man in the red kimono couldn't help but sigh.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, she would still be so stubborn and insist on spending her life with those swords …"

After saying this, he turned his head and smiled at the young man who looked like a crow boy. "You win, Little Crow Boy."

"The older the ginger, the spicier it is."

The Fu Mourning God named "Little Crow Boy" seemed to have been familiar with the young man for many years. His tone was familiar and relaxed, and the young man didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, he looked like he was willing to lose.

If this scene was seen by those who knew him, their jaws would probably drop.

"Hello, Asakura. According to the previous bet with you, I've won. You can go and find her now," Little Crow Boy said.

"Yes, that's right."

The Grand Onmyoji Prince Asakura a thousand years ago, and the Psychic King Asakura a thousand years later, agreed briskly.

"Little Crow Boy, say hello to her for me," he said. "My identity is limited, so it's not convenient for me to go to her place.

Help me tell her that the agreement between Prince Asakura and her has been fulfilled. The 'key' will be returned today. "

Little Crow Boy nodded happily.

"That's right."

Asakura rested his chin on his hand and arched his eyebrows. "Do you want to go over at night … and give them a surprise?"

On the other side.

"What?

There's tutoring at night! "

"Yes."

Liu Lianer opened the notes that recorded the members' lives, looked at the data, and said, "Akiya's English, Kuwabara's Mandarin, and Bunta's Mathematics are all subjects that need tutoring.

Also … Xing Cun, pay attention to your Chemistry. Although it's not to the extent of failing, it's considered a weak subject compared to your other subjects. "

Xing Cun smiled bitterly.

He didn't like Chemistry because it reminded him of the smell of the hospital.

"Also, Hoshino will be attending our tutoring tonight."

Liu Lianer turned the page and continued, "She said that she's too busy, so she might bring a 'family member' who's good at Mandarin to help her. She needs to attend tutoring in Mathematics and English."

Qie Yuan Akiya scratched his head and looked surprised and innocent. "Why are you all looking at me …" As if he thought of something, his expression changed and he looked a little annoyed and angry. "This is so annoying!

I know that this is to repay Senpai Hoshino for taking care of me for the past two days!

Damn it, I was also a minister for a year! "

Everyone looked away as if nothing had happened.

"Since there are no objections, it's decided." Liu Lianer closed the notebook.

A white shadow moved slightly on the big tree behind him.

"Even so, do you have any objections?"

In a mansion not too far away, Hoshino Satsuma asked the same question.

"We won't have any objections to the decision made by the Main Hall."

Sanchū Sōjin, who was closest to her, said slowly, "However, Songxian Temple is still taking This Pill today, so I'm afraid they won't be able to come."

"I … didn't I add Songxian Temple to the first batch of people to come over?"

Junka looked at Kishimaru, who looked back at her blankly.

(… Forget it, it's useless to ask him.)

Junka was worried.

The whole house was full of swords and Fu Mourning God waiting for her to make a decision.

"That's it then."

Junka gritted her teeth and looked at Sanchū, who was sitting below the main seat, and said sincerely, "Please, Sanri Yue Temple."

…?

"Eh?

Won't you reconsider? "

Sanchū, who was sitting next to Sanchū, suggested gently, "If you bring Sanchū there, it might feel like a parent supervising their child's learning."

Junka followed his train of thought and imagined:

While she was writing, Mikazuki Munechika was leisurely sitting beside her, sipping tea while saying, "Very good, very good …" Ah, what a heart-wrenching scene.

She decided to change the person.

A second before Chun Xia spoke, Mikazuki Munechika — one of the Five Swords of the World who was usually unhurried — laughed a few times and said, "This is very good. Then I'll leave it to you to take care of me, Prime Master."

Junka's mouth twitched, "You're really fast, Sanri Yue Temple."

"Hahaha, thank you for the praise, Main Hall."

Helpless, Junka could only sincerely hope that today would pass slowly …

But it was strange. It was not yet five o 'clock on the clock, but the sun was already moving west.

When she looked up from a thick stack of documents, it was already completely dark.

"Hmm?

What's that? "

Under the windowsill, a flower stood up shakily.

Junka couldn't help but laugh.

She put down the pen, walked to the window, and opened it. A bouquet of wild flowers suddenly approached and was delivered to her.

"Haha.

Are you surprised?

Are you surprised? "Fu Mourning God, who had already changed out of his uniform, asked.

"Yes, it's a surprise." Junka took the flowers, put her elbows on the windowsill, and looked up at him, "You sent them back?

Did you have fun hanging out with children? "

"Children?"

Heimaru Kuni lowered his head to look at her. There was a deep smile in his golden eyes. "Their deputy minister looks even older than me."

"You're too … young."

Tsuru Maru was amused by her.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly stopped, winked at Junka, and disappeared.

The next moment, there was a knock on the door.

Junka closed the window, carefully inserted the flowers into the vase on the table, and said loudly, "Come in."

Shiche walked in.

"Hmm, there's the smell of birds."

He looked around, and his voice was soft and gentle, "Did birds come into the leader's room?

It's almost autumn, and the taste of bird meat is very good. "

Junka laughed dryly and asked, "It's dinner time now, what are you here for?"

"Yes, yes, I'm here for business."

Shiche took out the lunch box and put it on the table, "Candlestick Qie said that you're going to eat in your room, so he asked me to bring it over. He also asked me to remind you to remember to attend tuition after dinner."

Junka's attention was strangely diverted.

"Hall Shiche, your memory suddenly became better." She said in surprise.

"Huh?"

"Do you still remember your brother's name?"

"… Eh?

Brother … Brother's name … "Shiche seemed to have turned back into an amnesiac old man. He pondered for a few seconds, and suddenly realized," It's called Shiche. "

Alright, so it was just her imagination.

Junka sighed, and said deeply, "Brother's name is Crying Pill."

The author has something to say: I was too tired last night. 2333 This morning, there should be one more chapter tonight.

To tell a friend, writing about Tsuruni's interaction was like writing about a young boy and girl in love, and the warm little movements were easy to grasp.

Attached is a picture of Tsuruni's adorable face drawn by the little angel.
