"Come back with me, there are too many people in Tongmo."

Wu Mi is still the same as before, he is used to speaking in a commanding way, even if he intends to soften his attitude now, the tone of "you must listen to me" is the first thing he says.

Yayoi shook her head slightly, she had finally left, and had only lived a "normal" life for two days - not even a free life, and she didn't want to go back to that cage at all.

She doesn't have the ability to resist Wu Mi, not even Tong Mo, and he won't help her either.

This is the sad thing about the weak, even if the mental ability is strong, what is the use?

You can't even decide your own life.

But this time, Wu Mi didn't immediately dismiss her idea, the ghost king was silent for a while, and finally looked behind Yayoi as if he was about to penetrate the door.

"...Is it because of that child?"

Yes, not quite.

She likes Inosuke very much, if Kotoba can live here forever, she thinks maybe she can see Inosuke grow up.

Then the thoughts drifted away completely. If at that time, the mother and son find that they, Tong Mo, and even Wu Mi have no signs of aging in appearance, how should they explain it at that time?

Wu Mi coughed in dissatisfaction, and Yayoi came back to her senses.

She nodded blankly, a little overwhelmed, with what happened a few days ago, what are they doing now?

How could he act as calm as if nothing happened?

Ji Guoyuanyi's name was the layer of window paper that neither of them wanted to pierce. No one had mentioned it for such a long time, and life was barely going on, but everyone was avoiding it.

But when Wu Mi finally couldn't help explaining everything clearly, the deadlocked relationship between them could no longer be maintained.

"I brought you something."

He took out a small box from the pocket of his suit, seeing the somewhat familiar design, Yayoi froze for a moment.

Wu Mi slowly opened the box to her, revealing the shiny ornaments on the flannel.

That's a ring.

Yayoi's eyes widened. It's not that there are no such things as rings here. She has also seen Wuyou's thumb a hundred years ago with a wrench, or some enamel and jade rings, as well as the once handed down here from the West. European nobles like gemstone rings, but this one is different from others.

It already has a modern look, with a thin metal ring, dotted with a moderately sized diamond at the top of the center, it should be purely handmade, and you can still see the traces left by the unskilled craftsman.

"This, this is...?"

She could hardly close her mouth from ear to ear in surprise, and looked up at the man in front of her in surprise.

"This is a popular jewelry for Westerners. It is worn on the base of the finger. It is no different from the rings here. Those foreign ladies like this kind of thing."

Wuyou patiently began to explain to her, Yayoi may not know what it is, and it is a normal reaction to be a little surprised for a while.

"You can wear it on your middle or ring finger."

The problem is that Yayoi knows what that means.

If someone was born and raised here, he might have been fooled by Wu Mi's explanation of evading the important and neglecting the minor. However, how could Yayoi, who was what he called a "Western" person in his previous life, not know that this ring is like a wedding ring, What is the meaning of wearing position?

That's no mere decoration.

Now she has no way to refute - she shouldn't know these things, and it would be strange if she questioned them at this time.Thinking of what he said a few days ago that he wanted her to marry him, it was even weirder.

"Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to wear this kind of thing on your fingers?"

In the end, she chose a compromise method. Wu Mi also gave her some other things, most of which were bracelets. Women here like to wear gold and silver accessories, but she felt that it was really uncomfortable to wear something on her wrist.

"You can try it and take it off if you don't like it."

This time Wu Mi didn't choose to order her, now his first priority is to ease the relationship with Yayoi, he can't always push her too tight.

Yayoi had no choice but to put it on symbolically—she was surprised to find that it happened to be her ring size, and then took it off immediately, shaking her head and saying that she was not used to it.

But at this time, Wu Mi had already put back the square box containing the ring, so she had no choice but to hold the ring in her hand, and the irregular cut surface of the diamond inlaid on it was pressed against her palm, and some marks would definitely be left in a while.

She also didn't want to make a big fuss, there were other people in the room, maybe Tong Mo didn't matter, after all he was used to being beaten, but she didn't want to hurt Qin Ye and Inosuke.

Simply keep it with her first, and return it when the time is right.

"If you want, you can ask Naruto to send you here to visit them at any time after you go back."

This time, Wu Mi changed his words to ensure that she can continue to see the child she likes, which makes him not so harsh.

The woman still shook her head stubbornly.

"At least I want to wait until Qin Ye's injury is fully recovered, and I will not be relieved until they live here safely and will not be disturbed by their husband and mother-in-law."

The ghost king was silent for a while, and finally he compromised.

Last time he had dragged Yayoi back to Infinity City forcibly, at least he won't do it again in a short time.

"You haven't gone out to have a look after you came here, have you?"

Seemingly inadvertently mentioned, according to the route provided by Naruto, she should have come straight here after landing, so how can there be any chance to go to other places?

But this made Yayoi feel alert, what does this man want to do?

But this time, it was something that surprised her even more than the ring.

"A new thing is popular in the town, called 'filming'."

There is no misery, no one does not like movies, it is like witchcraft from the West, it is more magical than electric lights among gamers, even in a bustling town, the price of a movie ticket is very expensive It is prohibitive, and ordinary people have no chance to appreciate it.

Yayoi tilted her head, but she didn't realize what Wu Mi was talking about at the first moment. After all, the pronunciation was hard to remind people of something like "movie" in her previous life.

Following Wu Mi's explanation, when he said that it was projected on the screen with a projector, and the characters would move and tell some stories, she suddenly realized.

When she saw the black-and-white photos in Infinite City before, she didn't expect the process to go so fast.

It seems that she is still living in the last century—no, hundreds of years ago. It turns out that technology has advanced to the era of movies. Unfortunately, there are no sound movies now. She only vaguely remembers that it started a few years after World War I. there's noise.

Now is the "Taisho Era", and this vague definition makes it difficult for her to connect to the international year. It is only now that she can barely distinguish clearly. The days of isolation make her seem to be abandoned by time.

Seeing Yayoi's eyes light up, Wu Mi finally showed a satisfied smile.

She didn't go out very much in the first place, and this time he made an exception to take her out. It was such a novelty that she couldn't resist the temptation.

And what he didn't know at all was that the reason for Yayoi's excitement was not that he had never seen it before.

This is one of the few things that can remind her of her previous life. Even though she knows that the current movie has no sound, compared with her era, it is crudely produced and the picture is blurred, but she still wants to watch it.

The night scene was naturally chosen for the film. Yayoi looked at the buildings in the town curiously. The place is quite modern in style and brightly lit even at night, but most of the people are still wearing traditional kimonos and yukatas, which made her feel a little strange for a while. sense of violation.

Wu Mi is naturally wearing a suit. Since the introduction of the suit, he has completely abandoned the cumbersome kimono, and Yayoi is wearing a modern dress for the first time in hundreds of years.

It was a light-colored dress, very retro in Yayoi's eyes, with exaggerated lace and shawls, a wide-brimmed lady's hat on her head, gloves on her hands, and a bag that couldn't hold anything. handbag, and chunky-heeled shiny leather shoes on her feet.

The wives in the city are all dressed like this, and she and the two ghosts standing in the middle of the crowd are no different from humans.

"Mr. Yueyan", that's the name some acquaintances called when they saw Wu Cang and greeted him. They were all men in suits, who seemed to be either in politics or in the army.

This made Yayoi secretly terrified of how much family background Wujing had, and how many contacts he had with different identities.

Is it possible for me to leave?

She doesn't know how to use mimicry—it seems that ghosts other than Wu Mi can't. She has been seen by many people now, and if she escapes later, if she is found, someone will definitely notify him.

But that's all for later. As soon as the movie started playing, she put all those troubles behind her and stared at the somewhat blurred picture intently.

The people on the screen are doing exaggerated movements. Because there is no sound and it is not clear, the plot can only be shown through a larger range. This is a humorous film.

Seeing that Yayoi had already invested in it, Wu Can heaved a sigh of relief as if she had completed a task.

In this way, it can be regarded as his apology to her, and it is not easy for the ghost king to admit his mistake - even if he only realizes it in his heart.

He is not interested in such boring things, if it is not for socializing, he would not come to such a waste of time.

Rather, in his heart, there is nothing that can touch him except for the blue Bana flower. For him, the development of science and technology just makes it more likely that he can use other methods to make an antidote against the sun.

But when he accidentally glanced to the side, he realized that Yayoi's eyes had long since dropped from the screen, and she didn't know why she was crying silently.

As if she didn't want to disturb her, she just let the tears fall silently, and didn't make any movement to wipe them away.

"What's the matter, don't you like watching it?"

Wu Mi immediately leaned over and lowered his head to see what was wrong with her. The ghost's vision allowed him to see the tears on Yayoi's face as clearly as day.Even such a soft voice was a bit abrupt in the silent theater, but he couldn't care about that for a while.

Yayoi shook her head.

"No dislike."

It just made her homesick.

This is not her home, neither the Infinite City, nor the Bliss Cult, nor even the cabin where He Yuanyi lived a hundred years ago, is not her home.

Nor is it the two-story villa in the middle-class community when I was with Diablo.

She wanted to go home, to Naples, Italy, where her father decorated her room like a princess' bedroom.

Is there any chance for her to go back?
