[Gintama] Where is the soft girl that was agreed?

……

The treetops in the sun were shining brightly, blurring the girl's delicate facial features, and the long hair hanging down her waist like a waterfall was also plated with a hazy light gold, her voice was soft and gentle, slipping gently like velvet. Overheard.

"You have never agreed." Suddenly, the girl happily bent her soft thin lips, looked into his flowery red eyes, slowly dragged out her tone, and at the end of the sentence, she raised her lips mischievously, "Are you shy?"

"So-and-so is shy! Don't come so close all of a sudden!" He stammered in denial, and suddenly sat up on the ground, which startled the girl. Before she could dodge, she bumped her forehead straight into it, screaming. There was a "bang", before it was too late to take it back, Sakata Yinshi subconsciously blurted out, "Could it be possible that you found out that Ah Yin, I am handsome, handsome, and fell in love with me?"

"Hmm." Covering his blushed forehead, Xia Shi looked at him aggrievedly, and before complaining, he heard Sakata Gintoki's abrupt questioning.

So both of them showed a dazed expression.

"Ah, ha." After the two sides were silent, it was Sakata Gintoki who came back to his senses first, scratched his soft natural curls, shook his dizzy head due to excessive blood loss, and found himself the next step. , "Well, I probably suffered from temporary cerebral hypoxia just now, you don't have to—"

"I don't know." Sakata Gintoki's hasty excuses came to an abrupt end in the girl's gentle and calm voice, and he looked at her in a daze. Her shoulders slipped to her waist, she lowered her head and thought for a while, then she raised her head again, tilted her head and said to him, "I don't know if it's love, but I care about you, Sakata-kun."

The tone was sincere and gentle, like the dappled sunlight melting in her clothes room.

"@#%&..." He looked away uncomfortably, and the crimson color spread down his cheeks to the tips of his ears, whispering something vaguely.

"Eh? Sakata-kun, what did you say?" The girl who didn't hear clearly showed a puzzled expression.

"Didn't you want to call me Yinshi?" He glanced at her quickly, and pretended not to care, and amplified his voice, but the blush on his face didn't improve at all, "I agree, I agree!"

"Yeah." She nodded with curved eyebrows, and read slowly, word by word, clearly, "Yin Shi."

The heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and even the breathing was disordered for a moment.

Sakata Gintoki found awkwardly that he, um, probably cared about her a lot.

Because falling asleep in the case of a serious injury can easily cause shock caused by a drop in body temperature.The girl chatted with Sakata Gintoki one after another, cheering him up. Most of the time, it was Sakata Gintoki who was talking, and she listened quietly, talking about Takasugi who was a middle school sophomore who loved to kick the gym since he was a child. Wigs are a control. When I was a child, how to make the bird cage behind the private school so as to catch the most birds. After talking dryly for a long time, the drowsy Sakata Gintoki suddenly remembered something, regained his energy and looked at She asked her: "What about you, Xia Shi? Before you were kidnapped and sold to the art hall, where were you? What did you play? Xia Shi, you say you are from the Qing Dynasty, and you also catch birds and poke honeycombs over there?"

["Kangdang——" is the dull sound of the samurai | the knife came out and slammed hard on the wooden floor of the dojo.

In the turmoil of light and shadow, the man stood in front of her, holding a wooden knife in his right hand, majestic, meticulous, and cold.

He said, "Stand up, Xia Shi."

In a trance, she couldn't remember his face, but only remembered his orders again and again, repeated, resolute and tough, occupying most of the time in her memory. 】

"Hmm..." There was a slight pause, and the girl who quickly recovered from her distraction held her chin and tried hard to think for a while. What she found was the blurred and distant memory before she traveled. , "Probably, boys play the same thing? But I'm a girl, so of course they play differently. There are things like turning flower rope, stacking paper, house wine, and skipping rope."

To pass the time, chatting all over the world.Looking sideways at the side face of the young man whose blood had dried up, and his gentle smile when recalling the past, Xia Shi opened his mouth slightly, wanting to ask him some boring things that had nothing to do with the mission, even if she Already knew the answer.It's just that the red fireworks suddenly rose into the sky, and large pieces bloomed in the blue sky - it was the signal flare sent out when the Ghost Soldier team won.

"Takasugi finally got it done." As if relieved, the voice of Sakata Gintoki who looked up interrupted her unspoken words.

Unnecessary sensibility was suppressed again, and Xia Shi, whose reason regained the upper hand, bent his lips, but it didn't look like he was smiling.Then, under the command of Sakata Gintoki, the signal flare was ignited immediately, and their location was conveyed, waiting for rescue.

……

Had that nightmare again.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and sat up sweating profusely. The bullet on her shoulder had been taken out and bandaged. Although it was still stabbing continuously, it was not for Xia Shi. unbearable things.When I turned my head to look, the curtains of the tents were all covered, making it airtight and suffocating.Xia Shi, who was seriously injured because she was a girl, was assigned a small tent alone, and the room was quiet and pitch black.She couldn't see her fingers, and she hadn't fully adapted to the darkness. She wanted to light a candle, but when her hands were groping on the table, she felt a little convulsed with nervousness for some reason. Something was knocked off by her and shattered on the ground.

She curled her fingers tightly to the corner of the table, closed her eyes in the dark, heard her rapid and chaotic breathing, bit her lower lip until the smell of iron rust filled her mouth, and then slowly After calming down, he opened his eyes again, and slowly adapted to the darkness, barely seeing the tables, chairs and benches in the darkness.After a while, the bright moonlight and gentle candlelight poured in from the door, mixed with the cool breeze, Xia Shi looked up, and it was Shiina Yingying who came in with a kerosene lamp, which also illuminated the glass fragments on the ground.

"I'm sorry, Shiina-san." Taking a deep breath, suppressing the restlessness and panic in her heart, Xia Shi apologized softly.

"It's okay, I'll clean it up later." She stepped forward and hung the kerosene lamp on the spare infusion stand, her voice was indistinct in the large shadows, "Xia Sang's wound Is it better?"

"Hmm." She nodded, not surprised by Shiina Hotaru's polite inquiry and her next words.Because everything is expected.

"If you don't mind, can I ask you a few questions?" After a short greeting, Shiina Hotaru looked down at her, her tone was lukewarm, her expression was gentle but without too much expression, "How did you survive without any damage?" How did they get to the battlefield? How did you find out about Gintoki’s whereabouts? I’m curious.”

"Eh?" Pretending to be surprised, Xia Shi looked at the girl in front of him in confusion, bit his lower lip, and said in a puzzled tone, "Didn't you... you helped me?"

Shiina Yingying was stunned, and frowned: "What do you mean?"

"That day, Yinshi seemed to be leaving. I knew he didn't want to involve me, so I didn't follow him. Not long after he left, I wandered around the town without any belongings. What should I do? Later, I remembered Shiina-san, you taught me to recognize herbs and bandage wounds, so I went to a medical clinic to help me, with food and shelter. This morning, suddenly there was a man in the clothes of the Ghost Soldier Knocked on the door of the medical clinic, told me what you were doing, and escorted me all the way." Xia Shi pretended to be distressed, and slowed down his speech appropriately, as if trying to remember, "I I don't know what I can do to help, and it might be a hindrance, but that person said that there will be something wrong with Yin, so even though I know I'm useless and can't do anything, I'm still here. Did I cause you any trouble? Shiina-san."

"No... just like I said before, no matter what the process is, we are very grateful to you for saving Yinshi again." Shiina Hotaru shook her head and made a decision with a faint smile, "It's just our side There are also things that I am concerned about, which must be dealt with. What is the name of that person in the hospital you mentioned, and what characteristics can you tell me? If necessary, you may need to confront that person face to face."

"If you can help Shiina-san." Xia Shi confessed the relevant information that had been prepared long ago.

The name of the hospital, the name and characteristics of the non-existent ghost soldier, and related witnesses.

She has no way of guaranteeing that her acting skills will not be seen by Hotaru Shiina, but the evidence is solid. If it is evidence related to the incident, no matter which aspect they investigate from, it is absolutely impossible to find loopholes.

That medical clinic did exist, and she did live in the medical clinic those few days, and this morning, someone wearing a ghost soldier uniform came to her.

——Under her single-handed planning.

And that person also followed her order, and went to notify the ghost soldier team and Gui Xiaotaro's team to come to the rescue.No, before that, she had prepared all of this, including this battle of annihilation.

Everything is just for her to return to the Ghost Squad smoothly and gain their trust further.

And they don't know for the time being that what they are facing is not only the gods and humans on the bright battlefield, but also the countries on the dark battlefield.

A country that is corrupt, depraved, independent, and powerful.
