What’s next? I have no idea at all.
As I sat down, my whole hand was numb. I laughed at myself thinking that my claws were really numb now.
So, since it doesn't work in theory, let's do it in practice.
An idea flashed through my ears, making me suddenly enlightened.
Although it turned out later that this sentence really hit my ears physically, because it was Dazai Cat who whispered it behind my stool.
After saying hello to Kunikida, I picked up my pocket watch and went out. My destination was Tokugawa's home.
Knocking on the door, a clear "Who is it?" came out through the door.
Tokugawa opened the door and was stunned when he saw it was me. At the same time, I saw two figures running towards us behind her. I was about to exclaim, but they disappeared.
"What's the matter?" Tokugawa looked at me a little strangely, and I couldn't guess why.
"It's nothing, I'm just sorry about what happened that day... I bought you some fruit." I smiled and handed over the plastic bag in my hand.
"What, that's it, come in!" She said so, but the suspicion on her face did not disappear at all.
I entered the room, put the fruit on the coffee table, and sat on the sofa.
Tokugawa went to the kitchen to make tea for me. To be honest, I was a little afraid that she would poison me.
The sofa was warm. Tokugawa must have just gotten up, and he was still lying down. I touched other parts with my hands and they were all hot.
There are three water cups on the table, but they are all used, and they have been used not long ago, and the tea in the cups has not yet solidified into tea stains.
Moreover, just when I put my face at the same level as the tea cup, I found a tea-green, paint-like stain solidified on the bottom of the cup. I guess it was picked up by hands because it solidified in the shape of a fingerprint.
I raised my head, and at the same time Tokugawa came out of the kitchen, carrying two cups of tea.
"Why are you sitting so upright? Hahaha." Tokugawa smiled a little fakely.
"It's my first time coming to such a beautiful lady's house, so I have to be more careful." I felt like my mouth was infected by Dazai. "By the way, shouldn't tea be brewed in front of others? Ah, I'm just asking, no. It means something else."
"Oh hahaha, because my tea art is terrible and I don't want such a cute boy to see it." Tokugawa smiled and put the tea on the table.
I smiled awkwardly, thinking that this woman's mouth was not too generous.
After finishing speaking, Tokugawa sat next to me, picked up a tea cup and began to taste it.
Today she was wearing short house clothes and half-sleeved enlarged trousers that hid her bumpy figure very well, but the parts that should be exposed were not covered at all.
For example, her scarred leg.
Since the last time I accidentally discovered it, she no longer goes out of her way to cover it up.
"Hey, how can this be done~"
"What?"
"My legs, Si Ye is so young, don't be like that guy named Dazai and stare at the lady's legs!" Tokugawa raised his head, with a cunning light in his eyes.
My face suddenly felt hot and I looked away.
"By the way, is Miss Tokugawa originally from China?" I noticed that she said "surname Dazai" instead of "named Dazai", and I couldn't help but wonder.
Of course, it was also to resolve the embarrassment of the thigh incident just now.
"No, no," Tokugawa became inexplicably flustered, his eyes evasive, "Why do you think so?"
"It feels like it. After all, the surname Tokugawa is rare in Japan." I also took a sip of tea without telling the truth.
"Well," Tokugawa lowered his head, thinking, and said, "By the way, Mio is from China."
"Ah, that's it..." I was a little happy because I finally heard Isshiki's name in her mouth.
"Isshiki has been in very bad health recently. She has almost lost even the most basic conditioned reflexes... Do you want to go see her?" Tokugawa turned to look at me, his eyes were sad and filled with tears. The light is so charming.
My heart moved, and my tone softened unconsciously: "Think about it, where should I go to see it?"
Tokugawa didn't say anything, but took another sip of tea. I also took a sip, thinking that she was just too sad and didn't want to talk.
Things started to feel weird after I drank all the tea.
My head began to feel dizzy, sweat broke out on my forehead, my limbs began to feel numb, and a strong smell of blood came out of my mouth.
Something's wrong with the tea!
I stared at Tokugawa's unpainted face with my eyes widened.
But this snake-like woman just smiled, with murderous intent in her smile.
She stretched out a slender finger and put it on my forehead. With a little force, my body fell backwards uncontrollably.
My eyes started to darken, and before I lost consciousness, I heard Tokugawa whisper in my ear: "Go, go find her."
sewer.
The wet breath is as sticky as a spider web, wrapped layer by layer into a cocoon. It was like I was lying in this suffocating cocoon, unable to even move a finger.
"The sky is blue waiting for misty rain, and I'm waiting for you~" The girl's voice was melodious, pure and sweet, swaying gently not far away.
I felt a little familiar at first, but then I suddenly realized, isn’t this Chinese!
When I opened my eyes, there was almost no light in the sewer, so I didn't need to adapt to see the scene in front of me clearly.
This time there was no fear in the petite lady's eyes, and she no longer trembled like a fallen leaf.
It was the client from last time, another "Isshiki Sakura".
I opened my mouth to say something, but it was all stuck in my throat like I was talking in my sleep.
I'm afraid I wasn't burned out by the tea, I thought to myself.
"Now that you wake up, the game has begun!"
"Isshiki" said, running to me with a cheerful pace, and forcefully twisted a mechanism on my body.
Click click click——
This sound is not good, I thought to myself, it is a bit like a ticking time bomb.
"Your friend still has two hours~" "Isshiki" added leisurely.
Um? I bet this thing isn’t really a time bomb!
"Yes, it's a bomb~" She squatted in front of me.
Depend on! !
Sister, won’t you die if you do this?
I always worry about useless things, and the expression on my face must be ridiculously anxious.
"Wouldn't it be better to die? Then I don't have to be trapped in the body of a fish." There was a light sadness on her face.
Fish body?
Sudden inspiration struck my brain like lightning: the scar on my leg, the warmth on the sofa, three teacups, the "resurrected" color...
Isshiki was not paralyzed, she was the one I saw that day!
The reason for all this is because Isshiki, Tokugawa, and Mariko are actually the same person!
They are a real group.
Seeing the frightened look on my face, Isshiki smiled with satisfaction.
"Boys, please pay attention to safety when you are out alone~"
