I thought it was be but it turned out to be he

The room was dark, lit up by lightning at times, only to return to darkness in an instant.

Future tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time due to the noise of wind and rain.

The door was pulled open suddenly, a figure stood in the darkness, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the night behind the visitor.

With the increase of time spent together, the future can perceive who it is only by breath.

The chief executive had a white forehead strap tied on his forehead, and his team uniform was stained with blood. After being washed by the rain all the way, the bright red was smudged. He was still holding the knife she gave him, and the blood was faintly visible on the knife. The traces are so thick that even water can't wash them off.

In the future, I got up and lit the candles. The dim candlelight permeated the whole room. The pervasive wind came in through the gap when the door was closed, and the candles were flickered and extinguished.

The grief on the chief's face was fleeting, replaced by the usual smile, and he said troublesomely, "It's really troublesome to be stained with the other party's blood when you kill someone."

I already know the future. I haven't heard of any signs of activity by reformers recently. It may be the purge of the Shinsengumi that allowed him to kill so many people.He came here with this blood, which means that the Kondo faction has wiped out Serizawa duck, maybe that Amei is also there.

She didn't ask anything, and brought him a set of clean clothes, "Hurry up and change, it's all soaked."

"This is Mirai-chan's clothes, right?"

"I bought it too big when I bought it, and it might be a little small for you to wear, but at this time, let's make do with it, it's better than catching a cold." She said that she had already taken the knife in his hand and put it aside.

Sure enough, the clothes didn't fit very well, it was stretched so tightly that it seemed that a big movement would tear it apart. It should have been a nondescript size, but it was not the case when worn on him, which made him look uniquely light. idle.

"Although I don't recommend you to drink alcohol, but..." Future brought a bottle of wine from the kitchen and put it on the table.

"Looking like this, I always feel that Future Sauce knows everything." He sat down at the table with a smile, picked up the wine bottle and took a big gulp without using a bowl.

She is obviously smiling, but in the future she can clearly see the sadness behind the smile, because that's how she came here, it's really ironic.

The two of them didn't say anything after that, one drank alcohol, the other wiped the knife, as if they belonged to two worlds, but they were so closely connected.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the wind and rain outside the window did not know when it began to diminish.

"Can I sleep here tonight?"

A playful voice rang close to her ear, the man's breath tickled her earlobe, and the smell of alcohol came to her nostrils, carrying a somewhat intoxicating aura.

Looking back in the future, seeing a pair of eyes that people can't refuse, the green eyes are a little dazed.

Future finds a posture that is not easy to get tired and sits down, resting his head on his lap, stroking his hair comfortingly, only listening to him whisper, "Song...Future sauce, can you sing?"

"will not."

"Just sing a few lines, hey, I suddenly want to hear your voice."

The future answered, and began to sing a cappella. An out-of-tune tune was hummed intermittently, with a nasal sound, which was extremely attractive.

The chief executive closed his eyes, and the curves of his lips were full of satisfaction and gratitude. Under the half-light candlelight, his beautiful eyelashes flickered slightly, forming a faint shadow under his eyes.

……

A faint voice came from outside.

The sound of stepping on a twig was not obvious in the wind and rain, but Future still heard it, and gently laid down the chief executive, and pulled up the quilt.

Going out, the person standing in the yard turned out to be Tufang, even if he didn't look at his saber, he would not be mistaken for that cold silhouette.

He stood in the rain without avoiding it, and the rain soaked his hair and clothes, but it didn't make people feel embarrassed at all.

"Why do you care so much about the general manager's affairs?"

Qinglei's voice and the sound of rain came into Future's ears, still carrying a chill, but she couldn't hate her. He doubted her because he cared about the chief executive.

"Who knows, I just don't want to see him sad."

For some reason, she could always see her shadow in him, obviously two completely different people with two very different destinies.

"Mr. Hijikata really cares about the chief executive, so why didn't he kill Amei earlier so that the chief executive can give up? It's not love in the first place, wouldn't it be good to put an end to it earlier?"

I thought he wouldn't answer, but Tufang said after pondering for a moment, "Although I don't like that woman named Amei, the chief executive has a crush on her after all. If I kill her, he will hate me."

"So you cruelly asked him to kill Serizawa himself? You know, Amei likes Serizawa?"

It's really easy to understand, and the future can easily guess what happened just now.

Tufang pursed his thin lips and did not speak.

"I'm very happy." She smiled lightly, and even the candles on the table danced happily, "Mr. Hijikata would say such things to me, you should really hate me."

After a few seconds of silence, he said lightly, "It's not that I hate it, anyone who is unfavorable to the Shinsengumi is my enemy."

"Then it's not an enemy anymore?"

Hearing this, Tufang met her gaze, the purple-gray eyes in his eyes deepened, and he asked after a long time, "Who are you?"

"Just a knifesmith."

The future smiles brightly.

Hijikata did not continue to ask about this topic, "It's getting late, Serizawa ducks have been wiped out, there will be a lot of things to do tomorrow, and the general manager will entrust you."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Future thought about it and handed him an umbrella.

He didn't say thank you, but just nodded to her lightly, before walking out of the door, he stopped again, turned his back to her and let out a cold voice, "Good song."

After saying affirmative words, Hijikata Toshisan opened the umbrella and left without looking back. His light green figure disappeared into the rainy night.
