It's raining in heaven and earth.
Although Seiji Haruta told him it was a "light novel", he didn't understand what a so-called light novel was, and he didn't even have a clear concept of the word "novel".
Because he has never read any novels in his life.
That's right, Shigure has never read, read, or understood anything, no matter classic classics or popular entertainment novels.
The books he read are all about cultivation and learning and all kinds of knowledge. Just looking at these, just understanding these, has already exhausted all the time he can spend on reading, and there is no room for understanding other things.
So "Brother Story" is not only the first light novel that Shi Yu came into contact with, but also the first novel, which undoubtedly opened the door to a new world for him!
Plots, characters, scenes, pictures... everything narrated and described in the text fascinates him. What they convey to him is not any kind of knowledge, but stories (things) and things (languages). The story about his "righteous brother" told from the perspective.
Shi Yu felt that he was looking at the experience of the "Yi brother" - the protagonist, but he had a wonderful feeling of being substituted into it, as if he was in another world, playing a different self.
This feeling is... fresh.
This is fun.
Shi Yu vaguely understood.
It feels fresh, it's great, it sinks in, it feels good, it feels good, happy, happy... that's what Seiji Haruta means by "fun."
But it's just "fun" and doesn't make much sense.
No... "interesting" is meaning, which cannot be replaced by other meanings.
Shi Yu read silently and felt quietly.
He doesn't know what his physical condition is like now, what will happen in the future, and whether his family can save him. If a normal person were in this situation, he would be very disturbed, but Shigure seemed to have completely forgotten his own predicament, and the corners of his mouth even curved slightly unconsciously.
Even if he was about to die later, it would be pretty good to be able to understand the meaning of "interesting" before he died... He didn't have such an idea, but if it really ushered in the end like this, he could only accept it calmly.
Footsteps approached.
Shi Yu didn't notice it at first, until the visitor walked up to him, he came back to his senses and raised his head.
It was Seiji Haruta.
"How do you feel?" Seiji asked.
"It's very interesting." Shi Yu instantly understood what the other party was asking, and replied.
"That's good." Missionary success! Seiji was happy.
If the other party says it's not good, he will be unhappy but it won't be so bad. Tendo Shigure's views on "Brother Story" will not affect the next thing, but the feeling of helping a reader who appreciates his own work is different from helping a person who is not interested in his own work.
"Someone entrusted me to save you, I agreed tentatively, but I don't know if I can do it." Seiji continued.
"According to what the client said, your body is currently in the depths of the Cherry Blossom Realm. The state is unknown, but it must be very dangerous, and you may die at any time."
"To save you, the first thing you need is positioning. For this reason, I discussed with the benevolent god. She is willing to help and locate your body through you, but this method is dangerous to you and may speed up your death. .”
"As I said before, your family already knew that you had an accident, but I don't know exactly how they plan to save you."
"You can trust your family and continue to wait like this. Logically speaking, the power of the Tiandao family is much stronger than mine, so it is rational to do so."
"However, if you believe in me and are willing to cooperate with the positioning and give me a chance to save you, I promise to do my best!"
Shi Yu was silent.
Seiji waited for the other party's answer.
"Who is Mr. Chuntian's client?" After a moment of silence, Shi Yu asked.
"I can't say that." Seiji recalled his conversation with Yuimu.
After deciding to accept the mission, he called Weimeng again, who only told him that Tiandao Shigure's body was deep in the realm of cherry blossoms.
The reason why she gave this mission was to restore Lingting's failure, and there were other factors as well. As for what the other factors were, she didn't say anything, and she forbade Seiji to mention her to Shigure.
"Why did Mr. Chuntian save me?" Shi Yu looked at him and asked the second question.
Although the two had cooperated against each other in the blood wine ceremony, it was a last resort. In the current situation, no one owes anyone... No, if you think about it, Shigure is alive now because Seiji "lended his hands" and didn't kill him in the previous battle, so Shigure should owe Seiji once.
Including the novel Seiji gave him, that's twice.
Not only did he show mercy to his subordinates, but he also had to enter the depths of the Cherry Blossom Realm to save himself—this must be a huge risk. Shigure didn't think the other party had to take such a risk, and he didn't understand why Seiji Haruta would do this.
You know, if given the chance, he would kill Seiji Haruta! This is my father's order.
Although Shi Yu didn't care about this order, but an order is an order after all, if there is a chance, he will definitely do it.
Shigure has no hatred for Seiji, so it is not considered a real enemy, but because of his brother's death, the two parties are indeed "enemies".
He believed that the other party understood this.
So do not understand.
"Because the client gave you a lot of benefits... I originally wanted to be perfunctory like this, but I'd better tell you the truth." Seiji understood Shigure's incomprehension and said.
"The real reason why I promised to save you is: I don't think you are a bad person."
"You helped me during the blood wine ceremony... Although it was only a temporary cooperation due to the situation, you really helped me, fulfilled your promise, and helped me win."
"Your behavior makes me have a good impression of you, and I think you are not a bad person. Of course, this is a very subjective and one-sided view, but the task given by the entrusting person is evidence. If you are a wicked person, that person will not let me rescue you. You, on the contrary, may let me deal with you."
"However, I don't know why the client wanted to save you. Maybe that person didn't consider you as a human being and just had to be saved for some reason, but I want to believe that you are really not a bad person."
While saying this, Seiji took a look at "Brother Story".
"The works that I find interesting, you also find interesting... Maybe, we may become friends."
Friend... This is a very unfamiliar word to Shigure.
Of course he knew what "friend" meant, but he had never really experienced it.
And at this moment, Shi Yu vaguely felt the meaning of the so-called "friend".
"Your sister killed my brother, we are enemies." When he came back to his senses, the words had already come out of his mouth.
He didn't know why this happened, his mouth seemed to have lost control just now.
"I know, but you don't seem to hate me." Seiji smiled.
"I won't say sorry for that because I can't speak for my sister, but as myself, I'm sorry for the loss of your brother."
"We are indeed enemies, but you don't hate me, and I don't hate you, and we have common interests, so we have the possibility of becoming friends."
"In fiction, this is often referred to as 'mutual understanding'... I often feel that this 'understanding' is unequal, but it can happen."
"I don't know why you don't look like you hate me, but since you don't show 'enemies', I can reach out to you."
"As for whether to catch it or not, it depends on your choice, it's always raining."
