As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

"..."

Seeing the girl like this, she didn't run away, and just let the other person lean on her. She knew that at this time, the only person the other person could rely on was herself, and she would not let him down.

"Let me introduce to you the people behind me, not to mention Mio and Qi... As for her - School Jojo Matsuri... due to certain circumstances, I plan to classify her as a temporary new member of the Funeral Society."

Perhaps because he noticed that there were too many eyes on Matsuri, Aya briefly introduced the girl's situation to everyone.

"..."

Matsuri didn't refute... She didn't care at the moment. After all, they were all arrested and sent to prison. She wouldn't be surprised no matter how they were dealt with in the future. She also never thought that she would return to a normal life in the future. That should be impossible, right? ?All she could do was follow the woman in front of her. Everything had passed and she had to look forward.

"Hold on."

The general frowned and interrupted the other party.

"What's wrong, Mio."

Ya looked at her.

"She is just an ordinary person. She cannot take risks like you."

she countered.

"I know this, so she is a 'temporary' new member, isn't she? She is on the cusp of the storm now, and she is still in danger of being caught back. Let's hide here for now. As for what we can do...then Say it again."

Ya answered.

"..."

She didn't refute and let the other person continue.

"Then there are Qi and Mio. I think you also know their abilities. All future missions will be centered on them."

Ya gestured to the general and Qi on the side...

"...!"×N

Everyone immediately started whispering to each other.

"This is an order."

He added another sentence, and then everyone became quiet.

"In addition, we also got Kenji Kido, which made it possible to implement the biggest goal of our funeral club - 'Operation to Capture Leucocytes'."

……leukocyte?

Hearing this unfamiliar word, the general fell into some doubts. What words are these?But even so, she didn't go to the extent of interrupting the other party again. After all, her emotional intelligence was not that low.

After saying that, Ya walked to the main control computer in front of him and tapped a few times on the keyboard.

Beep-!

Numerous folders popped up on the many screens that appeared in front of everyone.

"It is divided into 145 modes according to different situations. Everyone should remember them all before fighting, and there must be no mistakes!"

He turned to everyone and ordered.

"How much time do you give?"

Argo on the second floor asked aloud.

"Three days, if you can't do it, don't participate."

Ya answered him coldly.

"——!"×N

Everyone whispered in surprise again, obviously troubled by the short time to recite the plan.

"Ya... we just went on a mission and we are all very tired. At least give us some time to rest."

Sextant spoke for them as the mouth of the people.

"Really, let's take a night's rest today...we will continue tomorrow, and...don't get the original intention wrong. This is not a place to rest and sleep all day long. Resistance is our purpose."

"As for...the school rules."

He looked at Ji, who had been hiding behind the general from beginning to end, not daring to see anyone.

"Um...yes, yes."

Matsuri trembled after hearing this and replied softly.

"You don't need to participate in this mission...you just need to stay with Mio."

"……OK."

Matsuri answered softly, feeling relieved.

As long as she can stay with Xiao Mio...she doesn't ask for anything else.

Guilty Crown ~ I am a stranger in a foreign land, my heart is with my fellow countrymen: Chapter 46 The three of them are together... quite good

At around nine o'clock in the evening, in a certain accommodation room in Roppongi Castle——

The general's clothes have not been changed yet. She is still in the same dark casual dress. There are strappy high heels that she has taken off long ago beside the bed. At this time, she is lying on the bed, supporting her face with one hand and scratching with her fingertips from time to time. Look at the screen and browse the content of the web page.

The slender black silk feet that had been bound by shoes for a day were exposed to the air. They lay prone on the bed, with the insteps of their feet touching the bed and intertwined with each other. Occasionally, they would lift their two calves in the air and cross each other back and forth, making them look slender. The outline of her slender legs becomes more attractive under the influence of such movements, which also highlights the somewhat girlish character of the owner at the moment.

"..."

Ji, who was sitting on the edge of her bed, stayed silent, looking down at the ground, slightly lost in thought. Occasionally, she would hear the person behind her humming traditional songs in a melodious voice. It should be said that at this moment, there was no one other than the other person humming. , and there is nothing else to think about except the flipping sound of the terminal.

"...?"

The general, who had recovered from the message on the terminal, noticed the quiet look of the girl on the edge of the bed. He turned his head and glanced at the other person's back. His beautiful purple eyes flashed with thought, and then he gently reached out and poked the other person. waist.

"..."

Matsuri came to his senses and slowly turned to look at her.

"Why don't you come up?"

the woman asked softly.

"……Um."

Matsuri obediently took off her small leather shoes. Just when she was about to go to bed, she realized that she was a little dirty. After all, her school uniform was already stained after a day's events, so she simply took off her coat, revealing He took off the white shirt and red bow tie underneath. After thinking about it, he took off the bow tie and loosened the buttons on his neck. The white and tender collarbone skin was exposed. Then he slowly got on the bed and came close to the woman. He hugged his knees and leaned against her. He looked at her on the bedside.

"Feel sorry…"

Looking at the girl sitting hugging her knees, she apologized softly.

"Eh? Why should Mio...apologize?"

Matsuri asked in confusion after hearing this.

"It was my negligence that got you into this muddy water."

She said.

"No, this is all... my fault. It has nothing to do with Xiao Mio..."

She acted arbitrarily without permission and went to Roppongi. The beginning of all this... was obviously her own fault.

"But...you were also worried about us before going to Roppongi——"

The general's guilty retort...

"Mio...you can't say that?"

Matsuri reached out and held her palm.

"……?What?"

She raised her eyes to look at him in confusion.

"You can't take the blame on yourself without permission, and say things like 'because you're worried about me, so it's my fault'. Don't you think it's heartless to say this? Don't just be gentle to others, be gentle to yourself, okay? "

"Sacrifice..."

Her eyes flickered, and then she looked down at the quilt on the bed with some confusion, and pursed her lips.

"Xiao Mio... I was worried about you at that time. It was my business and had nothing to do with you, so... don't take the blame on yourself. This is all my fault. This is why I am here now, and..."

Huhu~

The priest slowly stretched out his legs that were holding his knees, and then he hugged the general's head and let him rest on his thigh. The general did not struggle, but moved his legs slightly to make himself comply with the other person's wishes. On top.

"If it hadn't been for Xiao Mio today, I might never have seen the light of day. I would have become a prisoner, or even a test subject, and would have been tortured by them... and in the end I might have died... or... life would be worse than death."

"No...don't think about it."

The woman lying on her leg gently pinched her thigh flesh, which was not painful but slightly itchy.

"Well... no, because I have Xiao Mio, so why should I complain? There is no reason to blame the savior, right? Xiao Mio?"

He asked while stroking the side of the woman's face resting on her lap.

"……bandage."

The general closed his eyes and murmured like this.

"Eh?"

Matsuri was stunned for a moment.

"It is indeed a 'bandage'."

She closed her eyes and smiled.

"Mio...?"

Matsuri is still a little confused, bandages?Is it the empty thing they were talking about before?

"A bandage that can wrap a wound, isolating it from everything outside, heals people's hearts under this warm 'embrace', as delicate and flowing as water."

She closed her eyes and leaned against the other person's thigh, murmuring these words in a trance. If there was a god's eye, it must be the water element, as gentle as water.

"...///"

Matsuri's face gradually turned red for some reason as she listened to these words. It was clearly talking about bandages, but it felt like she was talking about herself. That feeling came from her soul, that's all.

"You know? You are like a bandage, but... very fragile and easily injured... as if it could break at the touch of a touch."

Thinking of the fragile appearance of the other person before, as light as tissue paper...delicate and fragile, but full of warmth.
