The next morning, Busujima Saeko started bathing early. The main purpose of bathing was not to cleanse the body, but to cleanse the mind.

Yesterday, Yan Kai took Busujima Saeko to find the villains he met on the first day. Busujima Saeko killed them one by one. There were eleven people in total. The fatal injuries were all from the life-threatening knife in the throat.

It was a happy death for them.

I don’t know what’s going on. It’s obvious that “Muro” is a sword that can kill people without staining blood, but every time after killing someone, the tip of the knife will always be stained with a drop of blood. Busujima Saeko needs to remove it.

blow down.

Should I say that "Wulu" doesn't understand... or does he understand too well?

Although he has regarded killing as a sacred thing, Busujima Saeko still remembers what Yan Kai said: calm down, calm down, still calm down.

If you cannot keep your heart clean, you will be infected by the negative emotions of those villains when you kill people, and you will eventually fall into the evil way of "killing people".

Therefore, it is necessary to bathe and change clothes before killing.

Bathing and changing clothes are just superficial. The deeper purpose is to immerse yourself in a clean state of mind.

When people take a bath, don’t they have that feeling of being purified? Don’t people feel refreshed after putting on new clothes?

Busujima Saeko wanted this kind of effect now. If conditions didn't allow it, she would even want to fast for three days before killing someone like Ximen Fubuki.

There is a kind of person who is close to the realm of God because he is already ruthless.

There is a kind of swordsmanship that no one can see, because everyone who was lucky enough to witness it has already died.

There is a kind of loneliness that cannot be described because it comes from the depths of the soul.

White clothes are like frost, loneliness is like snow, Sword God, Ximen Chuixue...

Obviously he is just a character in the comics. Whenever he thinks of Ximon Fubuki, Busujima Saeko will feel a shiver deep into his soul. This swordsman, who is as white as frost and as lonely as snow, even the hair on his clothes shows that he is a swordsman.

style.

This is probably the ideal existence that all swordsmen pursue...

But Busujima Saeko knew that she could never become Ximen Fubuki. She could not become Busujima Fubuki, and she would not become Ximen Saeko. Just like Ximen Fubuki would fast for three days before killing someone, and she could only drink Yankaizhu.

Millet porridge, well, it can also be considered fasting.

But isn’t this great?

Ximen Chuixue is very strong, and his persistence and sincerity in the way of the sword are also admirable, but he is too tall and too inhumane. Compared with a human, he is more like a god standing on the clouds looking down on all living beings, which makes people want to

I pay homage, but it is difficult to feel close to him.

Busujima Saeko doesn't want to be like Ximon Fubuki, but it's okay to get a little closer.

At least he gave Busujima Saeko a huge inspiration in his attitude towards murder.

It turns out that killing is neither a sinful thing nor something worthy of boasting. It is a sacred thing that one can devote oneself to and must be treated with seriousness and respect.

Isn’t this an emphasis on life?

He has unparalleled swordsmanship, but has never used it to kill innocent people. This is the most sincere feeling towards the sword in his hand.

Stepping out of the bathtub and wrapping herself in a bath towel in the hazy mist, Busujima Saeko glanced at the "Unru" placed aside and began to carefully trim her nails.

These hands will soon be holding "Muru". She doesn't want her hands to be a little untidy at that time, so even though she just trimmed the nails of both hands yesterday, Busujima Saeko is not afraid of trouble at all.

, and even pruned it carefully with greater patience than yesterday.

After trimming her nails, Busujima Saeko put on the brand new white Hanfu prepared for her by Yan Kai.

The same style, the same whiteness.

Although Busujima Saeko tried her best to avoid getting it dirty, her Hanfu was stained when she killed the last villain yesterday.

He was an overlord of the "middle" region with expert strength, and he led his men to do all kinds of evil. With the help of Yan Kai, Busujima Saeko got the opportunity to fight him alone.

The sharpness barely managed to kill him, but the white Hanfu was still stained red by the sinful blood, which made Busujima Saeko very upset and disappointed.

Afterwards, Yan Kai said that he had made seven sets of the same clothes. It didn't matter if one set was dirty. There were still six sets of brand-new clothes. Busujima Saeko could wear a new one every day these days.

This is indeed okay, and it makes Busujima Saeko's loss a lot less, but what's the point of this feeling of being moved wholesale?

Busujima Saeko didn't even know how to laugh.

Smile? Dry smile? Wry smile? Or smile awkwardly and politely?

After getting dressed, Busujima Saeko took the "Muro" and silently said to it in her heart.

No dew, no dew, from now on, let's drink the blood of those villains together, okay?

Although "Wulu" was still in its sheath, it made a "hissing" sound.

"I don't care, as long as I can kill people, don't just leave me idle like the last master..."

After receiving the "Muru" and "affirmative" responses, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but feel very happy.

After walking out of the bathroom, Yan Kai was packing his things. When he saw Busujima Saeko coming out, Yan Kai quickly speeded up the packing: "Saeko, it's so early this time!"

"Because I already know how to wear this outfit."

Busujima Saeko said with a smile. He was still struggling with how to smile before, but when he saw Yan Kai, Busujima Saeko naturally showed a sincere smile.

"Kaijun, let me clean it up for you!"

Busujima Saeko temporarily put aside her "Muro" and went to help.

At present, the two of them basically find an empty house with water and electricity to stay overnight wherever they go before dark. They don't have a fixed residence, so they have to carry the greetings with them.

After packing up all his things, before leaving the house, Yan Kai took out his wallet and placed a five thousand yen bill in the most conspicuous place in the house.

Yan Kai also did this kind of behavior yesterday when he left the empty house where he stayed for the first night. Busujima Saeko was surprised at that time but didn't ask much. But this time when she saw Yan Kai, she was like this again. She finally couldn't help but ask: "Kai

Jun, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, just overnight expenses left to the owner of the house."

Yan Kai put away his wallet and said.

"However, this is an empty house. I don't know if there is an owner. In fact, I think in a place like 'Zhong', if the house is unoccupied for more than two days, the owner is most likely dead..."

Busujima Saeko had some difficulty understanding Yan Kai’s behavior.

"Even if I'm the owner of the house, I can't owe the dead man money!"

Yan Kai said matter-of-factly.

Busujima Saeko smiled, Kaijun's thinking was indeed different, she wanted to cause trouble, and deliberately embarrassed her and said: "Kaijun, this is a 'middle', most of the people here are bad guys, and the owner of the house may also be

Bad guy, do you have to give him money like this?"

Yan Kai pushed up his glasses: "If the owner of the house is a bad person, then I can't owe him even more. I don't like to owe people, especially bad people. This will make me very uncomfortable."

No matter whether he is a good person or a bad person, Yan Kai doesn't like to owe people. If he owes money, he must pay it back immediately. This is why he first asked Kasumigaoka Shiu and Busujima Saeko for help. He didn't care whether they agreed or not, and talked first.

Reasons for good pay.

But later on, the three of them became familiar with each other and helped each other, so no one stopped worrying about who owed whom.

After listening to Yan Kai's words, Busujima Saeko suppressed his smile, nodded heavily to Yan Kai and said: "Kai-kun, you are right!"

Busujima Saeko couldn't help but admire Yan Kai's sincere attitude.

At the same time, I also understood that Yan Kai's ability to practice martial arts to a level beyond her reach at this age was not only due to his talent and family background. This sincere attitude may be more powerful than the two combined.

important.

I still have a long way to go!

After Busujima Saeko and Yan Kai left, a burly man with short, naturally curly hair walked into the empty house.

"Strange, someone has come in?"

The burly man muttered softly.

Although Yan Kai and Busujima Saeko tried their best to restore the place to its original state before leaving, traces of someone's activities still remained. However, what the burly man found strange was not that someone had been in this room, but why someone had been in the room.

There's still a lot of stuff inside.

Long before he left here to go out to do errands, he had already mentally prepared for everything in the house to be moved away. After all, this was "Chinese".

Not to mention the thieves, let alone the villains in the "Central" area. There are no kind people here who would enter other people's homes without taking any of them... Huh? Not only did they not take any of them, but they also left five thousand days behind.

Yuan?

The burly man saw the five thousand yen placed in a conspicuous place. He picked it up and looked at it carefully. He found that it was not a counterfeit bill, but a real one, and he immediately became happy.

"It's really interesting that I can actually see such a person in '中'... It's also good that these 5,000 yen can be used as food expenses after going to Tokyo. It should be enough for me to have a meal!"

…………………………

In the "Middle" area, there is a stronghold extending in all directions, like a maze. A well-dressed middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes was led by the leader through many doors and came to a door with a special pattern. He straightened his collar

, showing a smile that all men understand, leaving the messenger to open the door and walk in alone.

Inside the gate, a man wearing a white hooded cloak was sitting and waiting. The hood concealed his appearance, making it unclear what kind of person he was. After seeing the middle-aged man enter, he stood up to greet him.

, performed a strange courtesy towards the middle-aged man.

"Member of the Fourth Department, you have been coming here quite frequently recently!"
