[Hakuouki Doujin] The Tide of Fallen Leaves

In the end, Nueno asked Yamazaki to give up what he had just thought.

He didn't know how to explain it, but he instinctively noticed the abnormality, or... there seemed to be something wrong with what Yamazaki said.

So, he said, "I can't promise you such a thing...please don't say that."

"As far as the current situation is concerned... I don't want to pay too much attention to this kind of personal matter... that is... uh..." He hesitated for a while before he found an accurate reason to reply: " Now, we should rush back to Edo to make the antidote."

Yamazaki put his eyes on the wooden box in Nueno's hand, the white cloth inside was wrapped with medicinal materials, he was full of worries, and finally replied lightly: "Okay."

Nueno secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Yamazaki's next words after approaching.

"It's over. If I'm still alive and you're still here, I won't let you escape so easily."

Looking at the young man who was still serious when he said this, Nueno suddenly felt his head swell.

"Also, won't you tell me why you suddenly turned into a ghost inside?" Yamazaki saw Nueno's bitter expression, but didn't break it, and directly changed the subject.

Nue Ye raised his foot and walked towards the carriage, "Get in the carriage, I'll tell you on the way."

When the two of them were ready, Nueno drove the horse, and he continued: "Actually, it's nothing special... There is a kind of grass in the forbidden area, it will emit a special smell, if the ghosts inhale too much, the heart will beat Speed ​​up, blood flow rate also increases, it is a taste similar to stimulant to ghosts, if ghosts are too excited, sometimes they will not be able to control their own ghosts, if they are hidden, they will be exposed easily Status...it doesn't have any effect on humans, it's just a special kind of spice."

"Then has anyone used this kind of grass to see through the identity of the ghosts?" Yamazaki continued to ask.

"There used to be more, probably during the Warring States Period? Some princes or generals who are more defensive-minded will specially keep this kind of grass by their side just in case." Nue Ye thought for a while and replied: "Now because of the big Most people don’t believe in the existence of ghosts, so not many people do.”

"Then... other than excitement, does it have any effect?" Yamazaki asked again: "What is the name of that grass? If possible, I can also help to pay attention..."

"Oh, thank you." Nueno smiled lightly, "Generally, when you encounter them, if the amount is not too much, and the ghosts themselves are not completely unaware, the impact will not be great, at least you can suppress the ghosts. I’m impulsive, so don’t worry about it. But if it has further effects, it’s probably a little aphrodisiac… I haven’t noticed it, so I don’t know much about it.”

"What's the name of that kind of grass?" Yamazaki blinked, suppressing the concern in his heart, and pretending to be flat.

Nueno looked at Yamazaki's appearance, although he was a little thankful that he and he soon returned to the previous mode of getting along, but he still shook his head: "There will be no problem, the chance of encountering is very low."

"If it wasn't... In short, it was because of some coincidence that the smell there was so strong. I haven't gone back for a long time, and I was negligent for a while. I won't do it next time."

Yamazaki retreated to the carriage, and silently responded, concealing his faint disappointment.

The two hurried back to Edo, but they met unexpected people on the way.

At that time, Nueno and his party were making their final rest in the suburbs of Edo, planning to go directly to the city at dawn and hand over the medicinal materials to Kiyotsugu.

It was Yamazaki who first spotted the other party. He stared at the figure still walking in the night, and became vigilant all of a sudden.

In the end, I saw the familiar clothes on the other party and confirmed the identity of the other party before letting go of my guard.

When Nue Ye went to the village and went around to buy some food and came back, he saw a familiar figure on the other side of the fire, and couldn't help being stunned.

"I'm back." He handed the things in his hand to Yamazaki, then turned his head and nodded to Okita: "Long time no see, Okita."

"...Long time no see, Nue Yeba." Although Okita had already learned from Yamazaki that Nue Ye was there, he still couldn't suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart.

The sleeve bag in his arms was still tightly pressed against his chest, faintly glowing with heat.

After the two greeted each other, they didn't continue talking.

It's not uncommon for Nueno to be like this, but Okita usually can't help but say a few bad words... Yamazaki glanced at Okita curiously, but found that the other party's expression was unusually lonely, and his eyes were still looking at Nueno from time to time, This made him widen his eyes a little, and he quickly focused back on the pot.

It seems that something has been discovered.

With a bit of excitement and apprehension of peeping into the secret, as well as a little helplessness about the truth, Yamazaki calmed himself down, and didn't deliberately say anything or push anything.

And the person involved...he couldn't help but glared at Nue Ye, who seemed to be empty-handed, always acting like he was staying out of it!I don't know how much effort it will take me to maintain the same as usual in front of him!

Especially when looking at his back in the carriage, Yamazaki would always have an urge to stick to the man's back and feel his body temperature.Even if I can't do anything, it's good to be able to stay quietly, very good.

Knowing that this is his own charming thought, he can't act rashly, so he has no choice but to hold back, and find some other things to distract himself by the way, so as to pass the difficult time when there are only two people.

And now... Yamazaki sighed inwardly, it seemed that something must have happened between Souji and Blade that he didn't know about.

The three of them remained silent for a while, and after finishing their meal, Yamazaki took the initiative to start the topic: "Sir, why are you here?"

"...I'm going to find Hijikata Toshizo." After a silence, Okita clenched his hands, "Why... my brother would... I'm going to ask him to give me an explanation!"

"...But your body..." Yamazaki didn't need to explain for Hijikata, so he turned the question to Okita himself.

After hearing this, Okita snorted coldly, "It's all like this anyway, and it won't get worse." As he said, he did not forget to look at Nueno from the corner of his eye, "Besides, I have also recuperated in Osaka for a long time, and I want to let Hijikata Guy, go save Big Brother!"

"Really..." After thinking about it, Yamazaki said, "We should stay in Edo for a few days. If you need it, you can come to us. But we should set off soon to find the traces of Rakshasa."

"I see." Okita nodded, "In this case, I'll go first, after all, it's a bit difficult during the day."

After all, Okita stood up and prepared to leave directly, even though his heart was still a little cold because of Nueno's cold expression, he still had to go on.

"Wait." Nueno called the other party: "Take it." After finishing speaking, he threw a small bag directly in front of Okita. "When the urge to drink blood comes up, this can be suppressed a little. There are others in it, help me to others."

"This is..." Okita suddenly opened the bag, and sure enough, he saw several small bottles filled with transparent medicine. "I see....Thank you."

"By the way, let me remind them again." Nueno raised his head and looked into Okita's green eyes: "If you can't get rid of your impulse with your own will, then you can only become beasts like Rakshasa .At that point, there is no way out.”

Okita lowered his eyes and said lightly, "I know."

Taking another look at the man's expression, Okita turned and left.

Only he knew that the originally cold body was unconsciously warmed up because of Nue Ye's tiny concern.

He knew very well that if he didn't look like this, he would definitely not be willing to let go of this person.

Yes, he knew that he had fallen in love with Nueno.

But now, he was the Rakshasa he hated the most, and even wanted to kill him quickly, so he restrained his thoughts.

Feeling sour in his heart, Okita wondered why his heart hurts so much.It was so painful that I couldn't walk steadily.

Ever since he was resting his body, he found that his mind was always filled with bits and pieces of getting along with that man, and Okita quickly realized his feelings for Nueno, and he had embarked on that path a long time ago.

As a result, every day he survived became a torment, and the cuff in his arms made him struggle even more.

If possible, he is willing to risk everything just to stay by that person's side...

As long as he is willing to look at his broken body...
