【Respect】The Beautiful Future

The door of the room was pushed open lightly, and Anna poked her head out from behind the door, staring at Zhou Fangzun without blinking.Zhou Fang sat on the floor with his legs bent, his back slightly bent against the edge of the bed, and his elbows resting on his knees.The room was filled with a strong smell of tobacco. He looked like he was in a daze with his head lowered and his eyes closed. There was an empty cigarette case beside him, and the cigarette between his fingers had already turned gray.

"Zun..." She opened her mouth softly, and approached him.

Hearing the sound, Zhou Fang turned his head and squeezed out a vague response from his throat. The voice was hoarse after a night of sleepless and smoked.

"...in a bad mood?" The little girl sat down next to him, raised her head slightly and looked at his face carefully.

"That's right." He looked away, stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and threw it into the ashtray on the table beside him.

Yesterday, not long after Yu Zhangxun was notified of the news that Munakata was buried in a landslide caused by the explosion, Yu Zhang quickly sent people to seal off the entire area.Shan Tiao, Yu Zhang's deputy, stood in front of Zhou Fangzun as soon as he arrived, and made a clear request to Zhou Fang to let all the Barbarians evacuate here immediately, because the targeted murder of Barbarians was very suspicious. .

"Yu Zhang Xun said something like this because his brain was flooded." Zhou Fang raised his hand to push him away a few steps, but his palm landed on Shan Tiao's shoulder but he did not move.Zhou Fang frowned, and stared sideways at the man in front of him.

"The general's orders can't be wrong." Shan Tiao resolutely looked straight ahead and didn't look at him, and his tone became tougher.Even though the force on his shoulders made him feel so painful that he was about to break out in cold sweat, even though the red-haired man exuded a terrifying aura, he still remained motionless.

Shan Tiao's voice just fell, and before Zhou Fang could speak, he could only hear a dissatisfied scolding from behind: "What do you mean by this blue dress??! We Baru Wuluo will not engage in such vile things As for the means, I think it must be that your side is too insidious to even spare your own people!"

Hatta Misaki and the rest of the Barbara were unceremoniously invited aside by the person brought by Shanjo just now, and when they heard this sentence, they were so enraged that they rushed forward in two steps.

"I can hear you yelling from such a distance, Misaki, it looks like you can't get rid of the little bastard?"

Misaki Hatta stopped suddenly, turned her head and glared at Fushimi Saru Hiko who had just handed over the task and came, "You don't need to care! Why don't you care about your head in the blue dress being buried under it?! Also, don't call me name!"

Fushimi Saru Hiko didn't answer his words, but passed him and stopped in front of Yoshijo's fortitude, Fushimi blocked Yoshijo's gaze from looking at Hatta, raised his hand and saluted: "Colonel Yoshijo."

Shan Tiao and Zhou Fang competed with each other on their shoulders, but upon hearing this, they just nodded and didn't say anything.Zhou Fangzun looked away and turned his head to look at Fushimi, he relaxed the strength in his hands, and there was an impatient urging look in his eyes.

Fushimi Aru Bigu was slightly stunned, his eyes flickered for a moment after he missed Zhou Fang's gaze, and finally he hesitated and said slowly: "It may not be suitable, but... Barbara is indeed believable."

Hatta Misaki who was behind him was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and before he could change his happy expression, he heard Yoshijo's resolute sneer: "You are the kid that Munakata brought back from Barbara, right?"

"...Yes." He replied with a frown.

"You're not a little suspicious, so don't rush to speak for your hometown when Munakata Reisi is at a loss."

"... Tsk." Fushimi smacked his head and tongue, there was a hint of mockery between his brows and eyes, he was about to speak again but was stopped by Seri Awashima who approached with Izumo Kusanagi.Kusanagi Izumo pulled Hatta closer to Zhou Fang's side, Fushimi lowered his eyes and pulled the corners of his lips to stop speaking, stepped aside to make room for Awashima.

"I'm sorry for causing trouble to your work." Awashima straightened up after bowing in front of Zenjo, "But I think the most urgent task is to rescue you, so I hope you can accommodate me."

"The order will not change." Shanjo replied without hesitation.Then his breathing was suddenly blocked.

Zhou Fangzun grabbed Shan Tiao's neckline with one hand, and almost lifted this strong man from the ground a little bit. The veins on the back of his hand were bulging, and the light of a beast flashed in his red pupils. His voice was full of anger. murmured:

"Go away."

Shan Tiao was breathing hard, but his gaze met Zhou Fangzun: "This is the general's order. As long as the Barbara is not completely withdrawn, we will not launch any rescue operations!"

The strength in Zhou Fang's hand tightened so much that his face turned red, Kusanagi finally couldn't help but raised his hand and pressed Zhou Fang's shoulder: "Zun, let's go first."

Zhou Fangzun did not answer.Kusanagi sighed and lowered his voice a bit: "Just now, Xiao Shili and I went to see the place where the explosion happened, and all the traces were removed. You know... the brigadier general who was buried below will not be able to withstand the time." Expendable."

Zhou Fang's eyes darkened a bit, his lips were tightly lined, and he looked past the encirclement circle formed by several soldiers to the place where Munakata Reisi had stood.

He let go of his hand and turned to leave without saying a word.

Zhou Fangzun's thoughts were interrupted by a sudden soft and warm touch from his fingers, he looked down: Kushina Anna carefully covered his hand, which is a child's way of comforting.He paused for a moment, and moved his fingers slightly back to hold her palm.

Neither of the two made a sound, and the room fell into silence until the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted it after an unknown period of time.

"Respect—" Kusanagi Izumo pushed open the door and said, "There is news from the Federation." Then the words were paused when she saw Anna, who looked at Kusanagi's rare haste in doubt.Zhou Fang saw his worries, and he already had a bad premonition in his heart, but he said directly: "Speak."

"The Commander-in-Chief of the Federal District in Japan Yuzhang Xun just issued an announcement that Brigadier General Reji Munakata was killed in a landslide caused by a deliberate explosion." Kusanagi handed over the document in his hand, "Here are the details."

Zhou Fang raised his hand to take it, and the first glance made him squint his eyes slightly: "Asphyxiation due to lack of oxygen, plus the steel plate penetrated the chest cavity and caused excessive blood loss...?" He threw the document aside , looking sideways at Kusanagi.

"Liji...?" Anna was stunned, reaching out to grab the scattered papers, but the documents slipped through her fingers and fell on the floor, she slowly gathered her fingers and hung them beside her, "No way ...it won't be like that."

Kusanagi walked two steps closer and squatted down to touch the little girl's head, but said to Zhou Fang: "This is official news, but I think there are indeed some problems."

"How to say?" Zhou Fang had already restrained his sloppy posture.

"I searched the scene again after the people from the Federation left, and found no blood, let alone excessive blood loss." Kusanagi paused, "The coffin of the big man is parked on the training ground, but any Even Xiao Shili can't take a closer look."

What the hell is Yu Zhangxun doing? !Zhou Fangzun gritted his teeth and cursed secretly, his clenched fists loosened and tightened, and the knuckles cracked.He suddenly froze, then closed his eyes tightly and leaned back against the edge of the bed.

[purple] The pain caused by the outbreak of the virus will become clearer and stronger with the intense emotions of the person.There is a burning pain starting from the palm and climbing all the way up the arm, like a flame burning wantonly on the bone, as if you can hear a slight cracking sound from the texture, this feeling is similar to that of Damocles back then. The pain endured when a sword shatters is somewhat similar.

Noisy voices rushed to him in an instant, and the severe pain in his head seemed to be the nerves being torn and bitten by thousands of tiny bugs.Anna tightly held his hand, and she seemed to be saying something when she moved closer. He couldn't hear clearly, and the thick darkness in front of him made him unable to distinguish.

Zhou Fangzun gasped in pain, and finally heard the syllable Anna uttered in a daze.

Rites.

Munakata Rishi.

Reishi will not die.

Ah... of course, of course he knew.That was Munakata Reishi, how could such a cunning man allow himself to be buried like that?

What's more, what qualifications does Yu Zhang Xun have to decide all this?What qualifications do you have to take Munakata Reishi away and want to sentence him to death with a few blank sheets of paper?

Two people walking in the world like half of each other, nothing can take him away from the place beside him.They are destined to walk together, this is fate, and it is also their oath!

……oath?

The sharp and noisy voices stopped abruptly, and a faint light appeared in the darkness in front of him, and the light spot expanded little by little, finally forming the moment in the church.

He was close to Munakata's forehead.Sunlight fell on Munakata's blood-stained white clothes through the colored windows, and he vaguely heard Munakata's breathing, or perhaps the subtle sound of the tide. The deep purple in front of him was the most intoxicating sea in the world. .

——No matter the position of the war, no matter the kingship of the disease, always be with me, until death can not separate us.

—You seem to have misspoken the oath?But I do.

His mind was clear for a moment, all hallucinations and voices receded, the flames on the bones trembled and extinguished, and the pain disappeared due to the effect of the suppressant again.

The oaths of that day were fulfilled one by one like a prophecy, but so what.

He remembered the soft voice of the man in his arms, even though he still sarcastically beat around the bush first, but he answered without the slightest hesitation.

I would.

This is enough.

In life or in death, he should be with me.

Zhou Fangzun slowly opened his eyes, put his hands on his forehead and let out a soft hum from his nasal cavity.Anna was still staring at him worriedly. He patted the back of Anna's hand slightly with his fingertips to indicate that he was fine, and raised his eyes to meet Kusanagi's gaze: "Is the regular inspection of the Winged Lion over?"

Kusanagi showed a smile when he heard the words, "Sure enough, it's the style of a general. No problem, then I'll go and inform the equipment department, and you should prepare first."

Zhou Fangzun also stood up after Kusanagi Izumo turned and went out. During the movement, he let go of the little girl's hand, and Anna reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes uneasily, "Zun...?"

Zhou Fang laughed softly, he reached out and stroked the girl's snow-white hair, "I'll go and bring him back."
