Night Rabbit Inquisitor

【Why, did you let go of her hand at that time? 】

Shenwei slowly opened his eyes, and heard soft sobs coming from his ears, as well as a breath that was close at hand.

He is very familiar with this breath.

Years ago, a certain silly little girl would carefully wipe the blood off his face when he dragged his wounded body home, and then lay down beside him and fell asleep peacefully.

The gentle breath soothed his violent dream.

...It's a myth.

"...Really, crybaby."

He said this to his sister in an unimaginably gentle tone.

It was rare for Shen Yao not to refute him this time, tears fell on his neck, mixed with blood and mud, and fell to the ground.

When the pain reaches a certain threshold, it will become numb.

Kamui, who could no longer feel the pain, blinked vigorously, trying to focus his blurred vision.

Unsuccessful.

He sighed and closed his eyes again.

"Why... save me?"

With a hoarse voice, the younger sister asked him in a low voice.

"Why?" Kamui tried to raise his movable right hand, placed it on his younger sister's head, and gently touched it: "Because, I am an older brother."

It should be a matter of course for an elder brother to protect his younger sister.

This sentence seemed to touch a strange switch, Shen Yao bit her lower lip tightly, and cried even more fiercely.

After a long time, Shen Yao sniffed and said in a low voice, "You are seriously injured."

It was only then that Shenwei discovered that there was a penetrating wound in his abdomen, which was probably caused during the fall just now.

Although my sister tore off the hem of his clothes and gave him a brief bandage, the wound was still oozing blood, soaking the cloth and spreading continuously.

"It's okay." Shenwei's voice was indifferent, as if the fatal wound did not belong to him: "It will always heal."

Silence fell between the siblings again.

"You...how did you get in?" Shen Yao asked again.

"Are you referring to this enchantment trap?" Shenwei slowly opened his eyes, and his vision finally became a little clearer: "Someone told me that the design wanted to kill you, but now it seems that he wants to kill you." You're probably not the only one."

"..."

So, knowing that it might be a deadly trap, he still broke in.

Breaking into this dangerous trap, he rushed forward desperately to save her.

"Are you really Kamui?"

"Ok?"

"Shenwei won't do this, he will just call me a weak creature one by one, tell me to go away or die..."

"Hmm... probably so." Kamui didn't deny it, just nodded with his eyes bent.

"He's such a jerk."

"Yeah, I think so too."

"Lovely sister lost it as soon as she said it."

"Cute?" After Kamui said this, seeing Kamyo's bulging cheeks like a puffer fish, he chuckled slightly: "Mmm, cute."

"Just like an idiot, who only wants to become stronger and stronger..." Shen Yao hammered the ground: "Big idiot!"

She said so disgustingly on her mouth, but in fact, she held Shenwei's hand tightly.

She seemed to be able to feel that the body temperature of this hand was getting lower little by little with the loss of his blood, and the touch gradually became icy cold.

You can't sit still like this.

"It brought us here, what's the purpose?" Shen Yao frowned and asked, "Is it just for revenge?"

Shenwei remembered what Ye Wang Fengxian had said, and for a moment didn't know how to answer.

Let her become a vessel for the Lord of Wandering's rebirth?

No, he would never allow such a thing.

He heard a rustling sound.

Shen Yao fumbled to stand up, halfway up, hissed, and sat back again clutching her sprained leg.

"Where to?"

"Let me see if there is any way to get in touch with the outside world."

"Don't move, this child's body can basically do nothing." Shenwei changed his tone: "And, that subordinate of the Night King, who is neither human nor ghost, may be looking for us."

He was really deceived by that old bastard, why was he forced into madness.

This matter, from beginning to end, seemed to be planned by him.

Whether it is him or that subordinate, they are nothing but victims of the Night King's ambitions.

Shenwei saw that the silly sister was still struggling to stand up, so he had to be patient and persuade her: "It's okay, wait a little longer."

"The guy in the hat has noticed that you are missing."

"...Zhongye?"

"So wait patiently for a while, he will figure out a way."

"..."

"Don't you think he is an almost perfect brother? If you really think so, just trust him."

The neck sank, and the little fool leaned his head against his neck again.

"It's heavy." Shenwei said softly.

"...Big Brother Bastard."

"Ok?"

"Although my brother is an asshole, he is still my brother." Shenyao's voice paused: "And, I don't regard Chuya as my brother anymore."

"Is that so?"

Although she didn't continue talking, it somehow made Shenwei feel better.

Everything seemed very warm, until the roar of a certain beast came from afar.

... It's the night rabbit, here it comes.

Just as Shen Yao wanted to get up, Shen Wei grabbed her wrist tightly.

She suddenly opened her eyes wide, and looked at her brother's unfocused blue eyes.

【"Stay here."】

He made a mouth shape to her, as if to ensure this, he stepped on his sister's ankle, and when Shenyao curled up in pain, he didn't care about the tearing of the wound or the damage to his body. The threat posed, rushed towards the direction of the night rabbit.

"elder brother--!!!"

He bled a lot.

In the air, on the ground, in the palm of the enemy, in his weapon.

All belong to the brother's blood.

"Shenwei!" She yelled heart-piercingly, dragged her injured leg and tried to stand up, but fell to the ground again before taking two steps.

This body was too young and weak, she could only watch helplessly as her brother guided the monster further and further away, being abused unilaterally.

However, no matter how many times he was knocked down, no matter how terrible wounds he left on his body, Kamui would still smile again and rush forward to fight.

Rebar, slate, arms, legs.

Use everything you see around you as a weapon, and use all your body's strength to attack the opponent.

Blood blurred his eyes, and he could barely see.

His tinnitus was so loud that he couldn't hear anything.

Little by little, the nature belonging to Yetu took over this body.

kill.

blood.

strong.

loser.

"elder brother--!!!"

Why is she still crying loudly there?

After crushing the monster's heart, Kamui fell to the ground covered in blood.

——I obviously won, didn’t I?Relying on this pair of weak childhood body.

I did it.

A monster of this magnitude can't beat me at all.

Ahh, finally defeated that sad monster, shouldn't it be time to step forward and comfort the crying little rabbit?

This should be what a brother should do, right?

but……

Already... completely unable to stand up.

……

"Shenwei!" Shenyao dragged her injured leg, every step was so painful that she lost strength, she reminded almost desperately: "Be careful! Your back!"

The monster Yetu whose heart had been crushed staggered up again. He groped for the meteor hammer beside him, raised it high, and wanted to smash it at the boy lying on the ground.

Her pupils shrank suddenly, and the burning pain in the back of her neck became more and more obvious.

In a trance, I even heard phantom sounds that do not belong to this world.

—just the last bit.

This strange world seems to have become a slow motion frame by frame.

The scorched sun with filth, the cloudy and rainy sky, and the decaying and abandoned buildings.

The world spun, and the monster's movements froze and stopped. Then, it was forced to fly tens of meters, and was crushed to the ground by an invisible force with a bang.

"Zhongye..."

Shen Yao yelled in a daze, and the moment he saw the person coming, he suddenly felt a sense of relief, knelt down and sat down without strength, and fainted in peace.

—

When I woke up again, I found myself lying on a hospital bed.

The gleaming ceiling was so white that it was a bit dazzling, and within the range of sight, a head suddenly poked in.

It's Kagura.

Kagura sniffed: "Old sister, the treatment was timely, it's great that you're fine!"

Seeing her open her eyes, a group of swords and swords rushed over together with Kagura, forming a circle in front of the hospital bed and looking down at her, as if she was some precious creature.

Shocked by this posture, Shen Yao shrank her neck subconsciously. She wanted to persuade them to back away, but the words changed into: "...Where is Shenwei?"

"It's all right, he's recovering well, Aru... except for a small problem."

"……Um?"

what is the problem?

Shen Yao was stunned for a moment, when she lowered her head, she happened to see her little arm which was being infused, and her head exploded with a "buzz".

"Shenwei, like the old lady, has become a child."

"……what???"

……

"Beforehand, I will not thank you."

In the ward next door, Kamui looked at Chuya Zhongyuan coldly, and said word by word.

Zhong Ye: "..."

Although he was very displeased with Shenyao's elder brother before, but after seeing him desperately saving his sister, he has completely changed his view of him.

When Kamui spoke these words righteously with a child's face, the latter didn't feel the slightest deterrence.

"Shenwei." Jiang Hua rubbed his son's head: "I can't say that, if there is no Mr. Chuya, the current situation between you and Shenyao might not be so good?"

Kamui snorted, turned his head around his chest.

Jiang Hua was helpless: "Zhongye, he has such a personality, don't pay too much attention to it."

"……fine."

He wouldn't bother with a little fur kid who looked like seven or eight years old at most.

At the same time, the door of the ward was slowly pushed open, and a dull hair stuck out first.

Shenyao's little head poked out quietly from outside the ward, wanting to see what's going on inside.

Without waiting for other people to react, Jiang Hua was the first to rush forward, hugging his daughter and rubbing hard: "Oh my god, little Shenyao, it has become so cute!"

Seeing her larval form, her mother was ten times more enthusiastic than her previous calm look, until Shen Yao blushed slightly, feeling a little overwhelmed.

She poked her head out of Jiang Hua's arms, then turned her head slowly——

Shenwei on the hospital bed was wrapped up like a mummy, leaving only his head outside.

Sure enough, he also turned into a child.

The brother and sister looked at each other quietly for a while, but neither of them spoke actively.

Shen Yao felt that her nose was a little sore, she hugged her mother even tighter, without saying a word, with lingering fear in her heart.

At that time, she was only a little bit close to thinking that she would really lose her divine power forever.

—

"How did I get to that space?" After hearing Shenyao's question, Zhongyuan Zhong also rubbed his temples and organized his words: "At that time, I searched for a long time where your brother disappeared, and I thought there would be a hidden weapon and organs and the like, but I haven’t found it for a long time.”

"And then? How did Zhongye come up with a solution?" Shen Yao dragged her chin with both hands and blinked curiously.

"The bastard Dazai ran over suddenly, and he told me, in fact, your mother has taken similar precautions before, as long as I fall asleep, I can enter that space."

"……Eh?"

Shenyao recalled the strange dream from last night.

It is related to the blood of "Wu", and she always has some childhood dreams recently.

The bearded Chuya in the dream...is it real?

"But, in that situation, who can fall asleep quickly?" Nakahara Chuya's expression was a little angry: "The bastard said he had a way, then he raised his hand and knocked on the back of my neck, it hurt, and then I Angrily turned around and punched him."

Osamu Dazai, with a bandage on his nose, pushed open the door of the ward, and said aggrievedly: "Although, in those animated movies, don't you just knock someone on the back of the neck with a bang, and then those victims can pass out?" !"

"You see too many inexplicable things, right?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also slapped the table hard.

Shenyao coughed: "...Then, how did Chuya fall asleep in the end?"

Kanakahara didn't answer, and Osamu Dazai approached with a smile: "When I went out, I took Kyoka's electric shock device with me, and it just came in handy."

"Indeed, it didn't hurt much. After losing consciousness, I saw such a scene in a blink of an eye. After saving you, your mother helped break this strange enchantment trap and deal with that monster."

After roughly describing the cause and effect, Zhong Yuanzhong also sensed Shen Yao's depressed mood at this time, reached out his hand to cover her drooping hair, touched it vigorously, and persuaded: "It's really all right."

"I……"

The little tuanzi lowered his head, like a dejected lop-eared rabbit, and said in a small voice, "I don't want to let important people get hurt because of me."

Because there are people who need to be protected, she has been working so hard to become stronger.

But now, once back to before liberation.

This weak child's body can only bring trouble to everyone...

What Shen Yao didn't know was that in the eyes of others, her sad appearance was simply outrageously cute.

Just like a real little rabbit, with its head down aggrieved, soft and sticky, anyone who sees it wants to rub it twice.

"Actually, if the master continues like this, it's not bad..." Outside the window, Guijia Zhenzong put on an obsessed expression while thinking.

"What are you talking about here? Be sober! Does the Lord want you to keep this body?" Hasebe knocked on his head hard, with a stern tone.

"Actually, everyone thinks this way, right?" Turtle Sadamune was not annoyed, but just pushed his glasses: "I'm just boldly expressing my true inner thoughts."

Hasebe was about to get angry when Yamato Morita suddenly pointed to the window and said in a low voice, "Look, my lord has moved! She's so cute!"

In the next second, Hasebe relied on his dream maneuver, rushed forward, and was the first to put his head on the window and look in: "What? What's wrong with her, my lord?"

Swordsmen: "..."

In fact, you are the most excited among the swords present here, right?

—

How to get the body back to its original shape?

Of course, it is necessary to find the person who tied the bell.

Now that "Wu" is dead, the only breakthrough point may be Ye Wang Fengxian.

The location is set at Edo.

The six-strike sword man disappeared into the night of Yoshiwara in an instant and began to investigate.

Standing on a high place, Shen Yao overlooked this strange underground city, and held her mother's hand tightly.

From this seemingly prosperous Yoshihara, she saw the breath of despair.

Countless women were imprisoned here and buried here.

It's like a shiny cage.

"Tsk, I really didn't expect that the former opponent is now curled up in such a place." Xinghai Fangzhu touched his nose: "Little Shenyao, if you get scared later, remember to hide behind Dad and see how Dad will deal with it That guy - it hurts you bastard! What are you doing!"

"Huh? I didn't do anything, I just saw the uncle talking and felt disgusted."

As if nothing had happened, Kamui threw away the two handfuls of long hair he had just pulled out.

Seeing them drifting down one after another, Xinghaifang Master felt his heart was about to break, he jumped up angrily: "You bastard!"

"Okay." Jiang Hua smoothed things over: "Zhongye is still watching here, take it easy, don't scare others."

Shenwei clicked his tongue: "Why did he follow?"

"Shenwei." Jiang Hua smiled: "This is not the attitude you should have towards a lifesaver."

"..." Kamui changed the subject: "Where's the idiot Kagura?"

"It just so happened that Wanshiwu had a commission about Yoshihara. There was a child who wanted to see his mother, so she went to help in advance."

Want to meet mama's baby?Is it the kid he saw today?

Kamui's eyes flickered.

Zhongyuan Zhong also looked at this happy family quietly.

Although they are night rabbits, they are extremely harmonious. Compared with last time, they seem to be closer to each other.

Especially Shenyao and his brother.

While meditating, a small hand was suddenly attached to his hand.

Shenyao, who had shrunk by a factor of two, squeezed his fingers quietly, raised her head again, and looked at him quietly with wet eyes.

Chuya's heart started beating wildly.

It's just... so cute.

—

"Did it fail?"

Yewang Fengxian's words were not only for himself, but also for the people outside the door.

He sighed: "This is really unexpected, the former Lord of An'an is still alive, and you can return from such a trap intact..."

After touching the murderous eyes of the shrunken version of Shenwei, he changed his words: "No, it can't be considered completely intact."

"Let's stop talking nonsense." Xinghai Fangzhu walked slowly in front of his old enemy, and waved the handle of his umbrella: "Come to fight?"

In the eyes of the latter, there was no fighting spirit at all.

"It seems that I am old after all, Shenhuang..." Yewang Fengxian smiled: "I used to be so persistent to compete with you—"

"Who wants to compete with you?" Xinghai Fangzhu sneered: "Don't get me wrong, I just want you to pay for hurting my child."

"makes sense."

The old man, whose body seemed to have been eroded by alcohol, stood up abruptly, and his body also became huge. The kimono on his upper body was shattered, revealing his muscular figure.

"I've heard for a long time that there is an existence in Yetu who can control his body shape..." Jiang Hua murmured, "So he is."

The giant umbrellas collided with each other, and the violent shock wave knocked over the roof. The two strongest members of the Night Rabbit clan fought inseparably in the sky above the city.

After his eyes touched the dark brown blood stains outside the door, Shenwei suddenly seemed to remember something, kicked open the secret door of the Japanese room compartment, and really saw a dying night rabbit lying there.

He leaned forward and patted his subordinate on the cheek.

"Captain..." The latter coughed twice and opened his eyes: "Is it possible that I am dying, and I actually saw you when I first met you? Are you here to pick me up?"

Shenwei: "Don't say bad things, I'm not dead yet."

"Is that so? Is your sister okay?"

"……fine."

"That's good."

—

"Mom, don't we need to help Dad?"

Shen Yao's head was gently touched.

"No need."

"Because Mom thinks Dad will definitely win?"

"No, I think if he can't even win this, he doesn't need to come back." After Jiang Hua said this lightly, seeing his daughter's wide mouth and dull expression, he couldn't help laughing: "Just kidding .”

Why didn't I think that Doudou, this little dumpling, was so much fun before?

In order to prevent the gods from fighting and mortals from suffering, Jiang Hua opened the barrier in time with spiritual power, like a semicircular protective cover, firmly maintaining the entire Yoshihara, and also tightly locked the two guys who were fighting outside.

Yewang Fengxian is already very old, no matter how hard he tries, he will be exhausted after all.

"How is it? Did the new Lord of Wandering promise you eternal youth, or endless power?" Xinghaifang asked with the umbrella pointed at his throat.

"……nothing."

On the old man's face full of grooves and wrinkles, there was a self-deprecating smile.

"Huh...?" Xinghai Fangzhu frowned: "Then what did she promise to give you? To let you take the whole race with you?"

【——What exactly did you promise? 】

The struggle of the two monsters caused terrible turmoil.

The guests hurriedly fled towards the entrance of the city, and some singers tried to get out among them, but were stopped.

Yoshihara was in a mess.

In such a terrible turmoil, there was only one woman sitting on a high pavilion, without trying to escape, without the slightest fear, looking up at the scene outside the spiritual power shield, her face was calm, and her eyes were even more invisible. out of any sorrow.

She wore a complicated oiran costume and the most exquisite jewelry, and her gestures were full of dazzling beauty.

She is the sun of this city that never sleeps—the oiran sun wheel.

In the next moment, when Yewang Fengxian's eyes met her, he subconsciously paused his attack on Xinghaifangzhu.

Although she has such a moving beauty, she hasn't smiled for a long time.

When was the last time she laughed?

Before he cut off his hamstrings and imprisoned him thoroughly, or before he was caught in this cage?

When we first met, Rilun was just an inconspicuous girl.

He has been given the right to rule this land, and almost everyone will bow their heads in awe when he passes by, and call him Lord Night King.

Only the young girl, who was not obsessed with world affairs, walked carefully through the crowd, walked up to him, and looked up at him.

"Uncle, can't you see Grandpa Sun?"

"Uncle... so pitiful."

"Uncle, are you hated by Eunuch Sun?"

The girl stared at him who was hiding under the umbrella with the purest eyes, and then repeated in a daze: "... so pitiful."

This is probably the first time the Night King has encountered a creature who genuinely considers him "poor".

When I saw her again, it was not long after Yoshihara was built.

She was the first shipment to be sold.

The madam of a shop beat her half to death because she tried to get close to his house and give him a present.

The old bustard was afraid that the ignorant girl would offend the Night King.

He looked at the girl with stick marks all over her body, and picked up the "gift" on the ground.

It is a childish painting.

The picture is a round of the sun.

"Uncle...Uncle." The girl with a bruised nose and swollen face smiled at him, "You must work hard to reconcile with Father Sun."

To him, a girl is a different existence.

It is the most unique existence that he has ever encountered in his life.

But what did he do?

Unspoken possessiveness, disguised and twisted love.

Desires and obsessions turned into a huge net, trapping her tightly into the deep underground.

The girl opened her eyes wide, and the metal hood over the city slowly closed, the last ray of light was forever cut off.

Blood slipped from the hind feet that could not stand, and dripped on the ground, reflecting the girl's unfocused pupils.

He even made this optimistically smiling girl lose her smile forever.

The girl obviously tried to bring him into the sun, but he personally imprisoned the girl and locked her in the darkness.

Even the sun became dim because of it.

What the new Lord of Wandering An promised to him is...

[If he could do it all over again, he wanted to send that girl who was still carefree and smiling and calling him "Uncle" back to the ground. 】

With the efforts of Wanshiwu, the metal cover covering the city that never sleeps is slowly opened, revealing the blue sky.

The sun is not stingy, and it shines in Yoshihara.

The strongest man who once stood at the top of the Night Rabbit Clan finally collapsed under the scorching sun and landed on the nearest roof.

His skin was like a wall, cracked and peeled off piece by piece at an alarming speed.

When he was dying, the Night King noticed someone slowly sitting beside him.

"I've always...wanted you to see it." Rilun said softly, "The sun."

Yewang Fengxian struggled to open his eyes, his dry eyeballs rolled and fixed on the sun behind the smiling girl.

That was the last picture he saw at the end of his life.
