Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Prosecutors and Prosecutors
Not far away, Xiao Wu and his long-reunited partner Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi stood together. Opposite them, a group of abandoned Heian old swordsmen had faces full of grief and indignation.
Taking a deep breath, Higekiri, who still couldn't calm down, stared at a certain light gray short-haired katana tsukumogami for a long while, then slowly drew his sword——
“Anija!!!”
The quick-eyed and quick-handed Higekiri grabbed hold of Higekiri and tried to calm his brother down.
"Stay calm! We finally got to meet Yimoduo, we need to maintain a calm and reliable image in front of Yimoduo!"
Hearing his brother's words, Higekiri looked down at Himamaru. After a long silence, he slowly spoke: "Brother Maru... your expression is too ferocious."
It will scare other blades, so hold back.
Hearing Higekiri's words, veins bulged on his forehead and Kagemaru, who was suppressing the urge to attack, looked at his hand holding the handle of the main sword, and looked at his blurry face reflected on the blade, and fell silent.
Is it too late for him to say now that all this was done by his own hands?
Jin Jiancai, who was standing aside, didn't intend to let himself suffer, so he pounced directly on Xiao Wu, while not forgetting to kick Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi away.
"Hmm? Jin Jian?"
Looking down at the little Tengu who was clinging to his waist tightly, Xiao Wu bent down and asked: "Did something happen?"
Jin Jian, who had been pried away, felt a little aggrieved, but he also felt that speaking directly would undermine his dignity as the eldest brother, so he changed his way of saying it tactfully: "I finally met Xiao Wu, but you didn't even talk to me."
Xiao Wu laughed a little and simply picked up Jin Jian: "Because I know you are coming."
Looking back at Higekiri, Kagemaru and Kokarasumaru who were not far away, Kokarasuma gave a soft and overly soft smile: "I know you are by my side."
Because of trust, because I know you won't leave.
"But since you think so..."
Xiao Wu tilted his head: "Although it's a little late, but...long time no see!"
All the jealous bubbles seemed to disappear in an instant. Higekiri withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened. Higemaru coughed a little uncomfortably, then walked over, stretched out his hand and held Xiaowu in his arms.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Xiao Wuhuan, who was standing by, looked Xiao Wu up and down with a satisfied expression: "It seems that he has taken good care of himself."
"Although I'm glad that you're taking good care of yourself, but..."
Looking at the Tsukumogami who once hugged him and acted coquettishly, Xiao Wuhuan felt a little melancholy: "Father still hopes to protect you under his wings in the future."
Reason tells him that children need independence, but emotionally he is reluctant to separate.
Yamaubagiri Nagayoshi, who was pushed aside, looked at Xiaowu who was surrounded by people and lowered his eyes.
"It seems... a little uncomfortable."
Inexplicably, he felt that this scene was somewhat annoying. He felt that his partner shouldn't just ignore him like this, shouldn't just leave him aside.
I want the other person's eyes to always be on me, or even to get closer...
As if frightened by this sudden idea, Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi turned his head abruptly, and at the same time, one hand clenched unconsciously.
"This is normal. After all, she and I are partners, so it's normal for us to care about each other."
After trying to find a reason for his previous thoughts, Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi felt that he was right.
They're partners! This is normal!
At this moment, Higekiri, whose attention was drawn to Yamaubagiri Nagayoshi's actions, narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "What is the relationship between Xiaowu and this... um... I don't know what his name is?"
Xiaowu felt a little embarrassed when he realized belatedly that he had not had time to explain his relationship with Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi.
"Brother, this is my partner when I was a prosecutor. His name is Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi."
"Yeah?"
Pulling at his coat, Higekiri, who had gained some insight, smiled even more innocently: "Souga, thank you so much for your concern for my family, Huipupu."
Intentionally or unintentionally, when saying the word "my home", Higekire pronounced it with an unusual emphasis.
Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi, who was standing quietly beside Kouga, didn't get the deeper meaning of Higekiri's words at all. Instead, he looked at him frankly.
"If the target is Xiao Wu, then it's only natural to show concern for her."
"Because we are partners!"
Isn’t it normal for partners to care about each other?
Looking at the frank and honest Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi, Higekiri's eye twitched: Why didn't I realize that Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi was so... stupid before?
But it’s better to be honest!
After exchanging a subtle glance with Jin Jian and Xiao Wuhuan on the side, the old swordsmen reached a tacit consensus - since he is stupid, let him stay stupid.
The province will get wise one day and dig up their little cabbage.
Before the patriarchs could feel relieved for a few seconds, Xiao Wu, who had heard the conversation, nodded in agreement and echoed, "My partner is right."
"It's the same even if it happens to me. After all, we are partners!"
This sentence was like a switch. The slight sense of alienation that Xiao Wu had felt when he saw Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi instantly disappeared, and the familiarity and intimacy he once had with him resurfaced in his mind.
The memories were so beautiful, and now that Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi had sent out friendly signals, Xiaowu's guilt turned into a deeper closeness.
A soft and sweet emotion emerged in his golden eyes, but Xiao Wu didn't realize that his expression was a little different from usual. He just looked at Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi intently.
Yamaubagiri Nagayoshi also nodded slightly after hearing what Xiaowu said: "Yes."
The blade beside me is the most special existence to me. It is a blade that I can give my all to, a blade that I don't want to let go.
Even time and space cannot separate this longing, and even a brief separation cannot weaken this feeling.
The two parties involved looked frank, thinking that this was a socialist partnership, and were completely unaware that their thoughts had already exceeded a certain limit.
So, seeing this scene, Higekiri Toha: ...
My stomach hurts.
I thought the kid from other families was stupid, but I didn't expect that my own little cabbage was also... stupid.
Higekiri Toba, who suddenly suffered a myocardial infarction, no longer had the intention to deal with Yamaubakiri Nagayoshi. Now his mind was filled with only one thought.
I really believed your lies.
There's a reason why you two became partners. You're both so stupid that you're both on the same page!
Damn socialist partnership!
The author has something to say:

Xiaowu and Yamaubagiri Nagayoshi: We are partners!
Socialist partnership!
Frank and openjpg.
The Blades on the side: ...
#Let me tell you, when we're with our brothers, you two really aren't around...Oh, you two are just silly, that's fine.#
