The "Kamidai Gyoen" has always been quiet. Except for a few servants and the ninjas responsible for guarding the family, it is almost difficult to see a few figures in the huge building complex.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.
In the wooden corridor exuding an antique atmosphere, Liuli's hurried footsteps were walking quickly from east to west, towards her mother Mizue's room.
As she walked in from the side door, the chaotic thoughts in Liuli's heart gradually came together, and the expression on her face gradually became calmer.
No problem, there will be no problem.
If Liuli was still very panicked when she suddenly learned the news that Rui Hui was seriously ill, now she has returned to her previous calm state.
Because on the way here, Long Dou had already given his guarantee. He promised that nothing would happen to Mrs. Rui Hui.
Although this guarantee had no basis, for some reason, Liuli believed his words.
No problem, mother will not die.
Whether it was blind obedience to Long Dou or self-deception, Liuli believed that her mother could live well at this moment.
But even so, the face of this divine eldest lady is still very solemn, and there is a hint of anger in the solemnity.
Yes, it was anger.
Liuli rarely showed the anger in her heart to the surface. She actually showed such an expression at this time, which showed that this time things had reached a point where even she could not hold back.
So, when the eldest daughter of the Kamishiro family stood at the door of her mother's bedroom, she took a deep breath, then raised her leg and kicked her over!
Facing the wooden door, Liuli angrily used the secret "Miss Kick the Door Technique" that she had used many times before without success!
But this time, she succeeded!
Poof! With a muffled sound coming from the wooden door, Liuli kicked the door of Ruihui's room open directly with her kick! The whole process was clean and neat, without any sloppiness.
Although this seemed to be just a simple action, only Liuli and Long Dou knew how much effort the eldest lady had spent during this period of time in order to achieve this point.
That was one day more than two months ago, when Liuli suddenly approached Long Dou.
"Why can't I open the door even though I keep kicking it? Is there something wrong with the door?"
".You don't seem to suspect at all that there is something wrong with your feet."
"Hmph, it's just a joke. Anyway, teach me to kick the door. Come on."
Ever since she kicked in the door several times before, Liuli fell in love with this method of showing off, but she struggled with the fact that every time she failed to show off, she turned into a fool.
So in order to stop jumping around with her feet in her arms, Liuli learned this special skill from Long Dou, the "eldest lady kicking the door".
Kicking down doors is a physical job, but it is not just a physical job.
The angle of the kick, the position of the kick, the center of gravity of the body, etc., there are so many things to pay attention to.
It is said that Liuli's physical fitness is like garbage, but fortunately the eldest lady is smart enough and finally mastered the preliminary kicking skills after some special training.
For a very thin wooden door like the one in "Kamidai Gyoen", the probability of being able to be kicked open is quite high. Look, isn't this a success
Poof! As the bedroom door was kicked open, what appeared in front of Liuli was a woman who appeared to be around forty years old, wearing a scarf covering her mouth and nose, and wearing tight-fitting clothing that facilitated movement.
The woman didn't seem to have any special reaction to the eldest lady's act of kicking the door, she just stood there quietly and waited.
".Ruyue, are you going to stop me too?"
Liuli naturally knew this woman, because she was Kisaragi, the "guardian ninja" who was responsible for personally protecting Mizue.
Now there is no companion around Ruri, and Ryuuto is also competing with Usagi Maru outside. If the guardian ninja wants to stop the eldest lady, then Ruri will definitely not be able to see Mizue.
However, Kisaragi shook her head when she heard this and said, "Ms. Miuhui didn't give me an order to intercept the eldest lady, so I won't do anything."
"Really? Very good."
After hearing the hint in Kisaragi's words, Liuli passed over the ninja without hesitation and walked towards the bedroom.
At this time, in the deepest part of the secluded bedroom, a woman wearing a white traditional nightgown was leaning on the bed, turning her head to look at the scenery outside the window.
The woman didn't seem to be in a very good state of mind. Her thick black hair was hanging loosely behind her back, and her originally heroic face showed an obvious sick look.
Compared with the usually strong, heroic, and wise head of the gods, Ruihui now looks very delicate. The huge contrast brings a strange beauty to this lady, making her look more delicate and charming than usual.
Ever since she suddenly fainted and fell to the ground not long ago, and slowly woke up, Mizue has been looking out the window in a daze.
Looking out the window from this angle, one can see a lush golden osmanthus bush, which Rui Hui had planted the year Liuli was born.
"Golden Osmanthus" is Ruihui's favorite flower.
In the past, every year when the golden osmanthus outside her room was in full bloom, she would take Liuli to enjoy the flowers and play together.
It’s just that the flowering period of golden osmanthus is from late September to early October, which is still two or three months away.
Will I be able to hold on until the next golden osmanthus blooms in two or three months? Or.
After waking up, Rui Hui always felt empty inside.
Ruihui actually already knew the date of her death, and she had even been doing various tasks for it for a long time.
But when she suddenly fainted today and could clearly feel her body getting worse when she got up, even a hero like Rui Hui among girls could not help but feel sad about her future.
Everyone is afraid of death, especially those who have concerns.
In other words, Ruihui is not afraid of death, but she is afraid that she will no longer be able to see Liuli again and will no longer be able to protect her daughter from the wind and rain.
But fortunately, Long Dou is still there.
Mizue had already told Usagi Maru to notify Ryuu Dou as soon as possible after something happened to her. In this way, even if she died suddenly today, Ryuu Dou's ability would be able to assist Ruri to stabilize the situation.
In this case, even if she embarks on the road to hell, Ruihui can walk more safely.
Da da da
However, just as Ruihui was thinking this, there was a sound of slight footsteps in the bedroom not far away. It was obvious that someone was walking this way.
Is it Long Dou? Because she had already ordered to inform Long Dou to come soon, Ruihui smiled and turned her head in that direction: "Long Dou-kun, look at me."
Originally, Mizue wanted to say, "It seems I will die soon," but midway through her words, the head of the Kamishiro family froze on the spot.
Because what appeared in front of Ruihui now was not a dragon fight, but a girl who looked roughly like her, with a trace of anger on her delicate and elegant face.
Rui Hui never dreamed that the person who appeared here was not Long Dou, but his own daughter.
So she could only ask as calmly as possible: "Liu Liuli? Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm coming." Liuli showed a weird sneer as she walked towards her mother's bed and smiled at the same time: "Otherwise, if something happens to you, I won't even be able to see you for the last time. "
"What happened? I'm just a little overtired, nothing special."
"lie!"
Before Rui Hui could finish telling her lie pretending to be calm, Ruri interrupted her mother's words with a sharp and angry voice.
This is the first time Liuli has spoken or roared in such a tone to her mother in so many years since she was a child.
After yelling, Liuli suddenly reached out and grabbed Ruihui's collar, and asked in a trembling tone: "In your heart, what am I? Am I still a three-year-old child?"
"." When she saw Liuli's expression, Ruihui knew that she had learned the truth. She didn't know how to respond for a while, so she could only lower her head and remain silent.
"Why do you think that if you throw me far away and keep me away from you, then one day you suddenly disappear, I will feel better?"
As he spoke, Liuli gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Are you looking down on yourself or me? Do you think that as long as you distance yourself enough from me, I won't be sad after your death?"
"."
"Also, what do you think makes me the most angry? It's your decadent look of completely accepting the fact of your own death! This is not the mother I know! The Kamishiro Mizue I know will never give up! Even if it's only a hundred The probability is one in one, one in a thousand, one in ten thousand! You shouldn’t give up!”
"Liu Li, I'm sorry, destiny cannot be violated. This is the fate of our Kamida family. It is not a problem that can be solved by fighting for it and working hard."
After hearing her daughter's words, Ruihui shook her head slightly.
If it were just a common illness, there might be a way to cure it through some means. However, Rui Hui's family genetic disease is an old problem of generations of ancestors, and it is not a problem that can be solved by the medical technology of this era.
The reason why Liuli was not infected with this terminal disease was because she went through a special pregnancy process, but Ruihui, who was already terminally ill, was hopeless. This was an unchangeable fact.
However, Liuli sneered at this time: "Fate. If this is the so-called fate, then I will cut off this ridiculous fate now."
"Liu Li, please stop making trouble, can we discuss some practical matters?"
Suddenly, Ruihui felt touched and funny all at once, and she couldn't help but almost laughed.
After all, Liuli's appearance of "cutting off fate" at this time seemed a bit middle-class, as if she suddenly turned into a middle-class girl, completely different from the usual eldest lady.
After all, if Rui Hui is destined to die due to a terminal illness, how can it be solved by shouting a few words
Unless Liuli really has a way to cut off fate, then the situation will be different.
The next moment, the girl reached out and took out a small, round, crystal-clear pill that looked like a translucent pearl and exuded a strong medicinal fragrance from her pocket, and handed it to Ruihui.
