No matter what attitude Sawada Tsunayoshi and Guli Yanma themselves have towards the "guardian plan" proposed by the prison temple Hayato and the decision to let Guli Yanma stay in the shrine.

But the final outcome is still... Guli Yanzhen stayed at Tsunayoshi's shrine that night, as planned by Hayato Guriguji, and was responsible for guarding Tsunayoshi's safety.

"Sorry, Enma," Tsunakichi said to Kouri Enma while pulling out a new quilt from the closet, "Please don't pay attention to what Hayato said just now..."

The tone of Hayato Gujiji when he spoke to Guli Yanzhen just now was as if he was giving an order.

"Hayato doesn't mean anything malicious, it's just that the way he speaks is inappropriate..." Tsuna spread the quilt, turned to look at Guli Yanzhen and continued, "He was too worried about me, that's why he was so nervous just now."

"I apologize to you on Hayato's behalf." Tsunayoshi said solemnly to Guli Yanzhen.

Few people would speak to Gu Li Yanzhen in such a serious and solemn tone.For so long, Gu Liyan has heard the most from other people... It is nothing but scolding and ridicule.

The red-haired boy was stunned for a while before shaking his head, "No...it's nothing...I won't care about these..." Because he was dazed and at a loss, he stuttered a bit when he spoke.

"Maybe Enma you don't care, but I still have to apologize to you." Tsunayoshi Sawada is really a stubborn person sometimes, "Because I don't want you and Hayato to have any unnecessary conflicts because of me. "

Hearing what Tsunayoshi Sawada said, Reborn, who was sitting in the hammock, sneered, and made a fair evaluation of Tsunayoshi's careful and cautious style.

"Actually... this plan is not bad..." Gu Liyan replied in a low voice, "After all, I have never stayed at a friend's house like today. It feels... quite interesting."

Tsunakichi shared half of the bed with Guli Yanzhen, and after the red-haired boy lay down, he continued: "I don't seem to have much experience of staying at a friend's house...but Hayato and Awu often live in the shrine."

——Especially during the period of the Ring War, the guardians took turns staying at the shrine, which almost became an unspoken rule that everyone knew well.

"They..." The lights in the room were still on, and Gu Liyan was really looking at Gang Ji, who was lying on the same pillow as him, who was close to him, "Are they all living with Gang Jun too?"

"No..." Tsuna turned around and looked at the red-haired boy lying on his side. "There are many guest rooms in the shrine, and everyone will sleep in the guest rooms..."

——The idea of ​​sleeping with Kori Enma was, of course, Sawada Tsunayoshi himself.

And originally wanted to beat the mandarin ducks... Reborn, who wanted to stop Gang Ji from doing this, after thinking of all the strange things about Gu Li Yanzhen, in order to find out Gu Li Yanzhen's situation earlier, he also fell silent, and he didn't say anything to stop him explain.

The little leader lying on the bed yawned a little, and continued: "I want to talk to Yanzhen more... that's why I left Yanzhen in my room."

Reborn would suspect the leader of the Simon family because of Guli Yanzhen's strange behavior during this period, and wanted to investigate more; while Sawada Tsunayoshi's reason was simpler.

When he saw Gu Li Yanzhen for the first time, he wanted to get close to him. ——As if the two of them were supposed to be friends.

Sawada Tsunayoshi's life today is very "thrilling and changeable". He has experienced everything from encountering hired killers to encountering robbers, so the little leader is also a little tired now. After another small yawn, he continued to say : "I don't seem to have been crowded with my friends much..." At this point, Tsuna looked up at Reborn lying on a hammock beside him, "Of course I mean... if Reborn doesn't count."

Reborn didn't respond to these words of Sawada Tsunayoshi, and the killer's breathing rate didn't even change at all. ——I don't know whether the tutor really fell asleep and didn't hear this sentence, or didn't care about what Sawada Tsunayoshi said at all.

"I've never had this kind of experience..." After Gu Liyan's voice paused for a moment, he suddenly changed what he originally wanted to say, "No...in fact, there have been..."

"When I was very young..." Gu Liyan's mood quickly fell, and it only took a second for the red-haired boy's mood, which was slowly improving, to return to the mood when the two first met Depressed and dissociated, "Our family sometimes huddles together on the same bed and chats like we do now."

"Father would tell stories to me and my sister...and also about his youthful experiences..."

Tsuna would be a very suitable listener if he wanted to. "Yanzhen's family..."

Before uttering his question, Gang Ji automatically stopped, "...Sorry, I shouldn't ask this question..." The little leader keenly felt that this was definitely not a question suitable for him to ask.

Even though Sawada Tsunayoshi didn't really ask the question, Kouri Enshin was able to guess what the other party wanted to say, and answered after the other party stopped asking.

"...all dead." Gu Liyan really didn't use euphemisms like 'not here' or 'gone' like ordinary people, but used the cruelest word 'death' over and over again Uncovering his own scars, "They all died... in mafia fights."

"...Sorry, Yanzhen, I shouldn't ask you these things."

Hearing what Gang Ji said, Gu Liyan shook his head, "Mr. Gang, you didn't ask, I wanted to say it myself."

"Others always tell me not to think about the past..." Gu Liyan lowered his voice a little bit, "But I still can't help it..."

Gangji held Yanzhen's finger on the pillow, "Yanzhen." The little leader worriedly called the other person's name, "Are you okay?"

Gu Li Yanzhen neither said good nor bad about himself, the red-haired boy looked at Gang Ji steadily, and continued softly: "So I hate the other world...and all the mafia."

"Those of them...it's always like this. After they have power, they start to use their power to do things wrong...the mafia is like this, and so are the group of idiots who will bully me at school."

Gu Liyan's eyes were full of disgust, he clenched Gang Ji's hand tightly, and said almost word by word: "I don't want to be like them."

These few words of Gu Liyan really reminded Gang Ji of the "world after ten years" he had experienced before.In the future world, the little leader didn't see Guli Yanzhen, nor heard any news about him.

Maybe it was because the Simon family happened to be away during that time, or maybe... ten years later, Gu Liyan had left the inner world as he hoped now, and escaped his fate of becoming a mafia.

Because of recalling this experience, Tsuna was unavoidably distracted for a moment.Gu Liyan saw that Gang Ji hadn't responded to him, so he continued: "Gang, you...it must be difficult to understand my feelings and experiences."

"You are very strong..." This sentence sounds like a compliment, but it is actually Gu Liyan's true thoughts, "When you met hired killers today... and when you met those robbers... Played strong."

Even the red-haired boy himself didn't understand why he would talk so much to Sawada Tsunayoshi, as if he wanted to pour out all the troubles that had been suppressed in his heart all these years to the other party, "Tuna-kun is very strong, Pengo Li The family is also strong."

"But I... and the Simon family, which is different from yours. We will be threatened by other families and..." Thinking of the death of his own family, Gu Liyan really gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from the tip of his tongue, "harm."

"Like this kind of experience and pain..." Gu Liyan really recovered from his anger, looked at Gang Ji and continued, "Gun Jun will never experience it."

"No, I have experienced it." After a moment of silence, Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly gave an answer that was beyond Yanzhen's expectations.

And when Tsuna Ji said this, Reborn, who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, paused for a moment.

"When I was very young," Tsunayoshi said while stretching out his hand childishly to show his height at that time, "there were not so many shikigami in the shrine, and I was not as powerful as I am now."

"Onmyoji is actually a very xenophobic profession." For those onmyoji carefully cultivated by family inheritance, of course, Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was raised by monsters, would be regarded as a different kind. "During that time, not only onmyoji would exclude We, even some youkai and shikigami, will..."

"I can't understand us." When talking about this past event, Gang Ji has always used very gentle and euphemistic words.But even so, both Reborn and Gu Li Yanzhen could guess from his words what kind of troubles the little onmyoji had suffered back then.

"...Then what happened afterwards?" Gu Liyan really asked.

"Later?" Tsunaki smiled, "Later I realized... I couldn't just hide behind Gu Huo Niao and the others. I was their onmyoji, and they were my shikigami. They loyally accompanied and trusted me, and I also take responsibility for them."

Tsuna looked at Guli Yanzhen beside him, and continued: "I have experienced the same pain as Yanzhen, so I understand your feelings."

The little leader's voice was very soft, but very firm, as if every word and every sentence he said could directly hit people's hearts. "The fault of those who have hurt us by their power is not their own great power, but their own."

"There is nothing wrong with being strong." Gang Ji showed a small smile, which brought some warmth to this late-night heart-to-heart talk, "There is nothing wrong with strength itself. But we must know what our strength is for. use."

"For what...?" Gu Liyan repeated this sentence again.

"Yes." The little Onmyoji nodded, "My flames, my Onmyoji and my strength are all to protect my companions."

"I am fighting for protection. This is the source of my strength." Tsuna shook Guli Yanzhen's hand and continued, "I hope Yanzhen you can find the reason and source of your strength as soon as possible."

Gu Liyan really didn't expect that he would hear this from Sawada Tsunayoshi.This was not his original plan, nor was it the original plan of the Simon Family.After being silent for a long time, the red-haired boy suddenly spoke again, and said to Gang Ji, who was almost asleep: "If the price of becoming stronger...is sacrificing others, will Gang-jun do it?"

——This is what the Simon family plans to do.

"Why do you ask that..." Gang Ji's voice stopped before he finished speaking, "Shhh—" Gang Ji suddenly stood up and turned off the light in the room, and at the same time covered Gu Liyanzhen's mouth, "Shut up."

And when Gu Liyan was really feeling the temperature of Gangji's palm in a daze, a burst of intentionally light footsteps came slowly.

——It's the housekeeper who routinely checks the night every night... No, it's the shikigami who routinely checks the night.

"Has Master Gangji fallen asleep?" Butterfly's voice sounded outside the door, the voice deliberately lowered by the girl sounded softer and thinner.

"..." Reborn, who was lying on the hammock pretending to be asleep, opened his eyes and glanced at Tsunayoshi Sawada.

And Master Killer's stupid student was looking at him pitifully with open eyes, as if he was begging his teacher not to tell about his staying up late chatting.

Heh, could the King of Killers in the other world be such a soft-hearted person?

"... Already asleep." The ruthless Master Killer replied to the Butterfly Spirit outside the door with a cold face.

——Be confident, speak clearly, and have no guilty conscience.

Hearing Reborn said Master Gangji had already fallen asleep, Butterfly Spirit lowered his voice a bit, "Then...do Master Gangji still have nightmares today?"

"..." Reborn gave Tsunaki a warning look, and continued, "No."

"...Stupid Gang." After Butterfly Spirit left in peace, Reborn gritted his teeth and said the name of his student.At the same time, he raised his hand to press the brim of his hat to cover his expression at this time.

As a result... Mr. Killer, who had already changed his nightcap a long time ago, of course missed it.His fingers could only rest awkwardly on his temples.

The moment he saw this scene, Tsunayoshi Sawada almost couldn't suppress his laughter.The little leader coughed several times, buried his head in the pillow, and made an inexplicable sound that seemed to be laughing and coughing.

And before Reborn was really angry, Tsuna put away her smile in a timely manner, raised her body slightly from the bed, poked her head out, and said to Reborn: "Thank you very much, my dear teacher..."

As for the gratitude of Sawada Tsunayoshi, the tutor sneered, turned his back to Tsunayoshi, and pretended that he didn't hear anything, and nothing happened just now.

After Gangji coughed a few times, he recovered from what happened just now.The little leader lay down again, and looked at Gu Li Yanzhen beside him.

And the red-haired boy... at this moment, he closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

But even though Gu Liyan looked like he was asleep, Gang Ji still answered his question just now.

"If the price of becoming stronger... is to hurt others." Gang Ji repeated Gu Li Yanzhen's question just now, "I won't do it."

"The purpose of my becoming stronger is to protect my companions, my family... all my important people."

"But other people also have companions and people they want to protect. I can't trample on the people and things they cherish because of my own desires."

After Tsuna Ji finished speaking, Gu Liyan's breathing became disordered for a moment, and it was only for a moment that it could be determined that the red-haired boy was not asleep at all.

Tsuna could hear the change in breathing, and Reborn could hear it too.

But neither of them revealed this.

"Good night." Gang Ji shrank into the quilt, yawned, and said in a daze, "Yanzhen."

"……Good night."

The author has something to say: r: I am an emotionless killer

Butterfly Spirit: Is Master Gangji asleep?

R: ... asleep. (righteous)
