365 days of playing the knife

"Sister—you can't get out of bed yet!"

Since Kanae woke up, Butterfly Shinobi, who had been supporting herself, immediately relaxed, and cried for a long time on the body of Kanae who had just woken up.It wasn't until he finally realized his impoliteness that he covered his face embarrassingly with red eyes.

However, even though Butterfly Kanae was already awake, her body, which was on the brink of death several times, still dragged her feet. In the first week, Kanae had to gasp for breath even after speaking a few words.So there is no way, everything in Butterfly House still needs to be taken care of by Butterfly Ninja, which also makes Butterfly Ninja unable to go out to do tasks during this period.

But as time passed, Kanae's body also began to improve, and there was no sign of the root cause of the disease that was originally thought to be left behind.Everything is getting better.

But even so - getting out of bed and walking around is not allowed!Although Butterfly Shinobu complained so dissatisfied, she immediately supported Kanae who was walking in the corridor with a cane.

"It's okay, my sister understands my body." The habitual offender who was caught by her sister many times smiled softly, the sunlight shining through the thin clouds was blocked by the eaves, and Kanae, who was standing in the shadow, was not covered by the sunlight He stretched out his hand, feeling the faint warmth in the palm of his hand.

Kanae took two steps forward with a gentle expression, throwing her body, which was always cold because it had not fully recovered, into the warm light.She took a deep breath and met her younger sister's worried eyes.

That slender and white hand, which at first glance was not like a ghost hunter could have, lightly tapped on Butterfly Shinobu's frowning brows, Kanae smiled softly, "Xin Shinobu still has the prettiest smile. "

"Sister!" Butterfly Ninja has never been good at dealing with her sister who always seems a little natural. At this time, she can't even say the words of rejection. She can only call out her closest friend with dissatisfaction and helplessness like a baby person's name.

"Just walk with me, Shinobu." Kanae tilted her head, she knew that this child would never reject her. "More exposure to the sun is also good for the injury."

Even if it is such an obvious excuse.

When the twins walked in from the door with a box of unknown things in their arms, what they saw was sitting in the corridor of the courtyard. Kanae said something again, which made the usually very stable girl make a gesture. Various vivid expressions.

"Miss Kanae!" A smile immediately appeared on Niaowei's face. It was not convenient to say hello while holding things in both hands, so he could only verbally express his joy, "It's great to see that you're okay——"

"You must know that some time ago, everyone was very worried!" Natsuo didn't wait for Kanae's answer, and seemed to be brisk because of his happy mood, "Come and find me when my brother and I finish moving things You play!"

Looking at Cattail who ran away in a hurry, Gu Gu, who was a few steps slower, nodded to the Butterfly sisters who were sitting in place, and then caught up with his brother.

"Niaowei is still as lively as ever." Looking at the back of Gemini leaving, Kanae, who had no time to speak, sighed.

Recalling what happened recently, Butterfly couldn't help but smile, "Fortunately, they were here during this time."

Butterfly House temporarily lost Kanae, which is equivalent to losing half of the sky.Even though Die Die endured to support the frame, she couldn't take care of the mood of all the children in Butterfly House—after all, even she herself was immersed in gloom.

Even if they are smiling, the children who are very sensitive to emotions can detect something is wrong, and the whole Butterfly House is immersed in confusion and worry.

It was also at this time that Gemini rushed back, coaxed Die Ren who was about to collapse to sleep, comforted the children who were at a loss, and directed everyone to work and live as usual when Die Ren was resting.

The smile on Cattail's face is like the sunshine breaking through the smog, always carrying a relaxing warmth.Gu Gu, on the other hand, didn't say anything, and only silently and carefully took care of everyone's emotions.

Moreover, although the twins have never said it in words, everyone knows that as long as they are always by each other's side, that is all their strength to support them.

If there is no such timely rain, Butterfly House will not be able to bring back a relaxed smile as easily as it is now, and the children will not be able to pester the twins in their spare time and listen to them tell about the things they encountered on the road.

"Speaking of which, you woke up not long after they came back." Butterfly suppressed a smile, "Although it's just a coincidence, I can't help but want to thank them."

Kanae looked at her sister who rarely expressed her emotions frankly, and didn't reply, just looked up at the clouds dyed in warm colors near the sun.

Perhaps, this is no coincidence.As Kanae thought about it, she suddenly remembered a certain Zhuhe meeting.That was the first meeting after taking the twins together for the Chinese New Year.

When it was over, Mrs. Tianyin stopped her. It was not a special task, but she simply asked if she could lend her the guard that was hanging around her neck.

Kanae, who has always respected the lord and his wife, naturally would not refuse, and she didn't even ask Mrs. Tianyin how she knew about the existence of this omori.After all, the Omori was hung on the innermost body by her, blocked by the high-collared Demon Slayer Squad uniform.

Looking at the mormori placed in the palm of her hand, Mrs. Tianyin's delicate face like a fairy brought some emotions that Kanae could not understand.When returning the guardian, Madam Tianyin's mouth seemed to rise a little, and then she said solemnly, "Please keep it safe, this is a very precious gift."

And when she was in a coma some time ago, Kanae didn't completely lose consciousness.At that time, she seemed to be floating and sinking in the middle of the sea. She clearly wanted to break through the water, but she was separated from the outside world by a plane like the sea.

She saw Xiao Ren's forced smile, saw the uneasy eyes of the children secretly looking at her, and saw the dark clouds hanging over the butterfly house, but she couldn't do anything.

Until a sudden call that broke everything, that voice broke through the transparent barrier that separated her from the world.It was like the sun shining through the sea, with enough light for her to see everything clearly.

[Miss Kanae, please wake up early. 】

Then, she woke up.

What is this like.Kanae looked at the bright glow that warmed everything in this world and invaded the body, enough to warm up the cold body again, suddenly realized, "This is like... a gift from the gods."

"Huh? Did you say something just now, sister." Butterfly, who hadn't heard clearly, came back curiously.

"It's nothing." Kanae frowned, "I was just thinking, Shinobu has grown up too."

"Sister—why are you talking about this all of a sudden!"

Seeing this scene from a distance, Cattail, who was still thinking about it, stopped in his tracks. He suddenly turned his head, and the clear and clear boyish voice was deliberately drawn out, with a coquettish softness at the end, "Brother, wait until this is over. Let's go play! Just the two of us, don't care about anything, don't think about anything, let's relax once in a while—"

Is this rare?Gu Gu originally wanted to make complaints, but after seeing the anticipation on his brother's face, he swallowed it immediately.Just like Nanwei never refuses Gu Gu, the silver-haired Fusangshin has never failed to meet Nanwei's expectations.Without even needing to think, Gu Gu nodded, "Okay."

After making an appointment, Cattail walked towards Sister Butterfly with light steps and pulled Gu Gu. After saying hello, the twins naturally sat in the same position in the corridor.

"What were you guys talking about just now?" Catfish Tail spoke first.

"Let's talk about the stepson again." Kanae replied, Butterfly Shinobi spoke naturally, "When my sister was resting before, I heard someone talking about the stepson that Lord 'Yan Zhu' took in, so my sister was a little curious." Said here , the girl who has always been very demanding of herself and is also a "stepson" frowned, with a hint of anger in her tone. "But those guys who couldn't even bear the training, they ran away."

"Xiao Ren--"

"I'm not wrong!" Butterfly grumbled, "If my body gets stronger, I can accept no matter how harsh the training is! It's not just like now..."

"Okay, okay," Catfish changed the subject like a haha, "I haven't heard any news about Yan Zhu, when did it happen!"

Butterfly paused, subconsciously calculated the time, "It happened a few months ago."

"At that time we were still on our way, and we had never heard of this news." Cattail asked with a smile, "What kind of person is Yanzhu?"

"A...very enthusiastic person?" Butterfly thought for a while, recalling the brief meeting with the other party, "Always with a hearty smile, giving people a very reliable feeling... something like that."

"Mr. Purgatory is indeed very reliable." Kanae echoed.

"Huh? Purgatory?" Catfish, who knew about it early on, now deliberately put on a curious look, "Is it Purgatory Xingjurou! I have the impression that the whole person is like a ball of fire, but I don't hate it!  … …Speaking of which, I remember that he seems to have a brother?"

Cattail's focus is always different from that of ordinary people.

"It's my younger brother." Kanae obviously knows more than Shinobu, she said with a smile, "My younger brother is about ten years younger than Mr. Purgatory, and I heard he is a very cute child."

"Probably because he is the eldest son of the family, Mr. Purgatory feels that he is very good at taking care of others." Kanae thought for a while, "I feel very similar to you."

"It's because we are all brothers!" Catfish said with a cheerful smile, almost instinctively.

"...Brother?" Butterfly Ninja opened his eyes slightly, "So you are the big brother, Cattail?"

Cattail was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized what she had misunderstood, subconsciously retorted, "No, no, I'm not talking about me and my brother." Cattail waved his hand and explained, "I'm talking about another brother them!"

Kanae repeated curiously, "The other brothers?"

"Yes, that's right," Cattail replied, "Don't look at me and my brothers now—we are actually a big family! And I'm very good at taking care of my brothers!"

Cattail wanted to continue talking, but was abruptly interrupted by the brother beside him who grabbed the cuff.The black-haired boy turned his head with a smile, and saw his brother's blank, nothing-looking expression.

The silver-haired Fu Sangshen looked pale and said blankly, "...brother?"

Cattail seemed to realize something, and the smile on his face froze abruptly. Under the puzzled question of Sister Butterfly, Cattail felt as if he didn't hear anything.The black-haired Wakisashi looked at his closest existence almost at a loss, speaking in an ethereal tone, he didn't know who to ask, who to confirm what.

"Brothers..."

"who is it?"
