[Vampire Knight] Briar

【It is not because of the object that knowledge arises, but because of the knowledge that the object is formed】

— Kant (Copernican Revolution)

In fact, halfway through that banquet, I let Acorus slip away with me.

Because I really feel that since Jiulan and his family came, the atmosphere of the banquet has become very weird.

Everyone seemed to put on a mask suddenly, and their demeanor became rigid.Even Ryuka Saozono, who had quarreled fiercely with me and insisted on "who is more beautiful, she or iris", seemed to be a different person.Quiet and virtuous, bowed his head and narrowed his eyes.I think it was probably to make a good impression on the Pure Blood Lord of the Jiulan family.

So at that time, I only had a quick glimpse of Jiu Lanshu.

Later, I really met him at Lan Tangying's birthday party.

I forgot to mention that Lan Tangying and Jiu Lanshu are about the same age, and I am two years younger than them.

But I think calamus is bigger than both of them, which is what I have always been very proud of.

I don't know how a spoiled young master like Lan Tangying got together with a delicate and sensitive person like Jiu Lanshu.Didn't it say that 'birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups'?

But the personalities of these two people are almost completely different.

In my impression, Lan Tangying is optimistic and lively, likes to be lively, and is spoiled by the Lan Tang couple, who are the best in Level B, and is not afraid of anything.

But he was born with blond hair and blue eyes, and looked like a little angel, so there were a lot of vampire friends around him, and he was very popular wherever he went.

But Jiu Lanshu, apart from being beautiful, doesn't look like a child at all.

I could never guess what he was thinking, what he liked and what he disliked.It seems that he has already looked down on everything, and his temperament shows deep melancholy.

Moreover, he is also the next "pure blood king" of the Jiulan family.So every time he attended the banquet, my little friends behaved 'cowardly'.He is like a walking 'rule', more effective than the etiquette teachers in those noble vampire homes.

I privately asked Lan Tangying, who had a pretty good relationship with me, how he made friends with such a "pure blood gentleman" who seemed very powerful.

Lan Tangying answered me proudly: "Hahaha, be envious. I am the only one who is honored to have the friendship of Master Shu. But if Liangzi begs me, I will recommend you to Master Shu."

"Hehe, do you believe that I told you not to see Sister Changpu again?" I couldn't see Lan Tangying's smug and stupid look very much, so I said indifferently.

"Don't, Ryoko." Lan Tangying, who was still a pure boy, was a little anxious now. "I knew that you liked Mr. Shu. So, I will introduce you to him next time. In this way, you can tell me what she likes in 'Calamus'."

"Impossible. 'She' is my sister!" I emphasized the word 'my'.

Compared with Jiulanshu, calamus is more important to me.Although I am very willing to show off in front of my friends that I have such a beautiful, gentle and caring 'sister', but when my friends 'covet' my own 'calamus', I don't feel so happy.

"Don't be so stingy, Akagi Ryoko." Lan Tangying hooked shoulders with me dressed as Level B. "Good friends are for sharing. I don't even mind you following Master Shu with me. So, shouldn't you also express it? Besides, in the future, your sister will be taken care of by a high-quality man like me. Don't you Don't worry? Is there anyone better than me?"

What a man!

I looked at the short man who was only ten centimeters taller than me, about 1.4 meters, and Lan Tangying, who had a baby face with baby fat.Compared with him, I think that Iris, who is now more than 1.6 meters tall, can hold me in his arms and hold me high, and hold me in my arms when I have nightmares, is more like a man.

Although I dress him up as my 'sister', it's to stop the stubborn mouth of Fei Ying's family, and I can kiss and hug him as my 'sister' at any time.And there is a beautiful 'sister' who takes care of me every day, and I can show off to Lan Tangying, who also has an older sister, but the older sister has a very spoiled personality.But it doesn't mean that I can tolerate my friends wanting to take calamus away!How can this be! !

So then I let Calamus change back to men's clothing.

Then he forced him to 'swear' to me, not to be more intimate with others than to me, not to like Ying, and not to say that I made him wear women's clothes.

Unexpectedly, instead of being angry at my unreasonableness, Calamus seemed to be very happy. "Okay. My Ryo cares about me too, I'm so happy."

Soon afterwards, Iris took me out of Japan and went to live in various European countries.

When I was a child, my knowledge was taught to me by the tutor of the Hizakura family together with Iris. Later, I went to junior high school and high school in France.Then I didn't plan to go to university right away, but took Iris to "experience life" in various countries, until I was called back to Japan by a letter from my father and an invitation letter from Kulan Yuki.

Look back.

In the chairman's office, the blood hunter with short silver hair gave me a vicious look before leaving, and said to me: "Pure blood of the Scarlet family, I will watch you. If you do evil in this academy If not, I will never forgive you lightly!"

I couldn't help but rolled my eyes.

I don't know what happened to Fei Ying's family?So bitter and bitter.Or is he like that with purebloods?

But it's not right, when Jiulan Youji pushed him away with an embarrassed smile on his face, he didn't resist.

When I walked out of the office of the black master Hui Yan, I first met Red Maria who heard the message and came to greet me.

"Liang, welcome back." She smiled softly, and she didn't see the sickness when I met her.

"It seems that your health has improved a lot. It's great, Cousin Maria." I was also very happy to see her. When Acorus and I first arrived in Europe, we stayed at her house temporarily.

At that time, she was still a vampire who could only stay at home and be protected by her uncle and aunt because of her weak body.At that time, her greatest wish was to run freely in the world outside the window.It now appears that her wish has come true.

But Red Maria smiled sadly: "Ah, it's thanks to Lord Xian."

"My aunt?" It's the first time I've heard the name Fei Yingxian mentioned since she passed away.Even the other letters sent to me by Fei Ying's family are just a single stroke of her death, like a family stain that has finally been erased.

It is said that it was because she once fell in love with a human as food.

"Yes, shortly after Iris took you to France, I met Kan-sama and Ichimo. Later, before returning to Japan, Kan-sama took us to France to see you. However, I didn't know why at the time, After seeing Calamus, she chose to take us away directly. Mr. Xian seems to think that this is the best for you." Maria said.

I looked back at Calamus.

I don't know anything about what Red Maria said.

About Fei Yingxian, I only heard about her a few times from Calamus and the family letters of Fei Ying's family.And the name of a wisp, I don't even know who it is.

Calamus shook my hand.

I know, that's what he said to me, and I'll explain it to me when I go back.

"Oh, who did I say! Little Yuki asked me to help a new classmate with accommodation, but I didn't expect it to be you. Akagi Ryoko, you have returned to China." At this time, a blond, blue-eyed, energetic A radiant young man walked over from a distant path with a book under his arm.

"Lan Tangying?" I recognized him almost immediately.

Although I haven't seen him for more than ten years, this guy is almost an enlarged version of his childhood.Although the baby fat on his face is gone, his facial features have hardly changed.In addition to being cute, it looks a little more handsome.

Behind him, there are two people I don't know, one has short brown-red hair and looks sleepy; the other is a girl with orange-yellow double ponytails, holding a sun umbrella.

"Ying, be careful, that's a pureblood." The listless boy was exceptionally sharp.

"Eh?" Lan Tangying looked blank, "Who are you talking about? Liangzi? It's impossible, we've known each other since childhood. She's a Level B just like us."

"That's right, Ying, Zhikui's feeling is right." The girl with ponytails looked cold, but she first bowed to me and saluted.

Although Lan Tangying looks stupid, he is more careful than anyone else.He felt it carefully, his face became serious, and he looked at me: "Hey, Akagi Ryoko, what happened? Why do you have the breath of pure blood all over your body?"

"I'm actually a pureblood. My real name is Hiyingliang, and my father is Hiyingshi, a branch of Hiying's family." I answered him truthfully.

"So when you were young, you were always teasing me, right? That was your pure-blooded game?" Lan Tangying frowned.

"I asked her to dress up as Level B." Unexpectedly, before I could speak, Calamus walked up to me and spoke.

"You are... Calamus?" Lan Tangying hesitated.But because even though Calamus grows from a teenager to a young man, his long dark green hair and those light green eyes have not changed.Therefore, it is no wonder that Lan Tangying finally recognized him.

"Yes, yes." I proudly raised my head at Lan Tangying. "It's the 'calamus' sister you once had a crush on. Stupid Lan Tangying, now you finally know where the 'big sister' beside me has gone."

"You just deserve a beating, Ryoko Akagi." Lan Tangying, who was furious because of my interruption, forgot the unhappiness caused by my identity just now, just like when she was a child, she chased me and wanted to slap me on the head.

Naturally, I hid behind the calamus and walked him in circles.

"The relationship is really good, Ying and this pureblood." The brown-red haired boy said lazily.

"Come on, Zhikui, open your mouth." The girl holding a small parasol took out a biscuit from her pocket, and skillfully fed it to the boy beside her.

"Ahhh." The boy with short brown-red hair bit down obediently.

Red Maria gently covered her mouth and smiled beside me, Calamus stood in front of me helplessly like an old hen guarding her cubs to stop Lan Tangying who wanted to pat me with the book in her hand, and I He hugged the calamus by the waist, hid behind the calamus, and grimaced at Lan Tangying like adding fuel to the fire.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, you can see that the little friends from the past have not changed at all.

This is so good.
