Back from the world of heroes,
Reiko took advantage of the gap in the report,
To ask if it was possible for the ghost lamp to retrieve his memories in advance.
Reiko originally thought that,
It would be very difficult to retrieve the lost memories. After all, the contract signed with her stipulated that she could only retrieve them after she left the Government of the Hour. But what she didn't expect was that after Ghost Lamp heard her question, he actually gave her a clear path.
According to the idea of assisting Lord Guan..,
"If you want the horse to run, you have to give the horse enough grass." And to the ghost lamp..,
Reiko was a blue chip. Ever since she became the Divine Inquisitor, it could be seen from her work efficiency. Such an outstanding talent..,
He didn't want to benefit the trash government, so naturally, he had to give Reiko some benefits to win her over.
However, he was a very principled civil servant after all,
So it was impossible to tell Reiko directly. Thus, the impartial assisting Lord Guan gave Reiko a leave in a serious manner. He gave her a coordinate and allowed her to go to the world she had really lived in to take a look... maybe she would see a familiar place,
Her memories would come back.
Of course..,
This leave was hidden from Wu and his wife. Recently, the efficiency of the couple had really made him very dissatisfied,
Especially the technical department under Wu's jurisdiction. Several big problems had occurred one after another, and they were all caused by Reiko,
There was a word in the modern world called "Mother Cheater",
It could not be more appropriate.
As a child, he cheated his mother,
How could there be no retribution. He really wanted to see what kind of bitter face his capable subordinate would show after his identity was exposed.
However, the opportunity to retrieve her memories was in front of her. Reiko hesitated instead. If she really raised a child and she passed away early, what kind of life would her child lead?
And those former "friends", those former agreements... Reiko, who had never called a "friend" by name, suddenly felt a little retreating!
Therefore, when Reiko returned to This Pill from Hell, all the Knife Spirits in This Pill received a melancholy Divine Inquisitor. They had never seen her so vexed before. She even went back to her room without having dinner, which made them think that she had been wronged in hell and almost went to hell with their knives.
The elders of the Saber Sect tried to coax and persuade him. It took them a lot of effort to persuade him, but all of them were still worried.
Reiko went back to her room and thought for a long time. She had to go. She had to retrieve her important memories. But when she thought about the Asura Battlefield that her "friends" might cause, she had a headache. She didn't know how to deal with it. To be honest, she would never be troubled by this kind of thing in the past. If those monsters dared to rebel, she would just beat them into submission. Sure enough, when people get old, they become gentle and not as irritable as when they were young … She would never say that after raising a group of Knife Spirits, she didn't dare to act shamelessly. Otherwise, when Knife Spirits stared at her with their watery eyes, she would feel that it was a matter that angered both God and Man if she didn't fulfill her promise with them.
Reiko was so troubled about how to deal with it that she couldn't fall asleep no matter how she tossed and turned on the bed. She happened to see the wine jars of the drunkards in the corner two days ago.
Therefore, when the old man Mikazuki Munechiko got up in the middle of the night to take a walk nearby, he saw his Divine Inquisitor sitting lazily on a pillar in the corner, sighing while looking at the moon. There were several wine jars scattered around.
If Hasegawa Division or Teng Shiro saw this, they would probably nag again. However, this appearance was really worrying. As a qualified Fu Mourning God, he should naturally take the initiative to share My Lord's worries (watch the fun)!
Mikazuki Munechiko smiled and walked slowly to Reiko's side with his long legs. He said with a smile, "My Lord is really in a good mood today. But drinking alone is a bit cold. Why don't you let this old man accompany you?"
Reiko's senses were numbed by the alcohol. She was looking at the moon in a daze. When she heard Mikazuki Munechiko's voice, she was slow to react. She was startled and fell to the side, but she happened to fall into a cold embrace and immediately froze.
"Heh …" Sensing that his Divine Inquisitor was pretending to be dead in his arms, Mikazuki Munechiko chuckled. "Don't worry, it's just this old man here. Hasegawa Division and the others are all asleep."
Shaking her head, Reiko slowly crawled out of his arms. She looked around and found that there was indeed no one around, so she sighed in relief. She turned to look at Mikazuki Munechiko who was smiling and sighed. "I've been hiding here, but I still managed to meet you. It's really … fate!" Seeing that Mikazuki Munechiko's beautiful eyes narrowed, Reiko hurriedly changed her words.
It was not until then that the pair of beautiful eyes opened a little more. As the head of the family, Lingzi let out a sigh of relief. Look, all of them were controlling her tightly. She really had a hard life …
"Sigh …" Reiko curled herself into a ball and leaned against the pillar. She picked up the wine jar and drank another mouthful. She no longer looked at Mikazuki Munechiko … weak, pitiful, and helpless.
Mikazuki Munechiko didn't know what she was worried about before, but now he knew what she was thinking. Looking at Lingzi's sorrowful look, Lin Mengya only felt that she was like a child. Lin Mengya chuckled again. Then, under Lingzi's somewhat perplexed gaze, Lin Mengya lifted her long skirt and sat beside her.
Reiko originally thought that he would stop her from drinking, but unexpectedly he didn't say anything. He only picked up a jar of wine and slowly drank it, looking incomparably elegant.
Reiko silently looked at him and waited for quite a while before he put down the jar of wine. She thought to herself, 'Here it comes.'
"My Lord doesn't seem to be in a good mood today. Everyone is very worried …"
Reiko waited for him to ask about the reason and then confide in her. However, he didn't. After saying that, he picked up the jar of wine again and continued drinking. His narrowed eyes and expression of enjoyment clearly showed that he didn't intend to continue asking.
'This is a bit too much!' Reiko frowned and used a resentful gaze to express her dissatisfaction.
Mikazuki Munechiko was about to die of laughter in his heart. Actually, he originally wanted to find out what was troubling her, but seeing her changing expressions was very interesting, he couldn't help but tease her a little.
Perhaps Reiko herself didn't know that the current her was very different from when she first took the This Pill. In the past, although she was very gentle to the Fu Mourning God, she completely put herself in the position of an elder. She would give to them without asking for anything in return. But now, although she would still dote on them, she would also rely on them.
Mikazuki Munechiko was afraid that she would really explode, so he stopped teasing her. He put down the jar of wine and looked at her with a smile. "If My Lord has any troubles, you can tell this old grandpa. Perhaps I can give you some shallow advice."
Only then was Reiko satisfied. Her resentment instantly dissipated. She struggled for a while before slowly opening her mouth.
This was the first time she had talked about herself. Three Ri-Yue listened attentively with a gentle smile on his face. However, when she talked about her "friends" with a gentle expression, a faint pain rose in his heart. How lonely must she be to be friends with the monsters that humans were so afraid of?
He had experienced many masters and seen the changes of time. Naturally, he was aware of the bad habits of humans.
Humans were truly a very complicated species. They envied those who were stronger than them. When they encountered danger or difficulties, they always hoped that there would be someone stronger to protect them. However, at the same time, they would be jealous of those who were stronger. Those who stood out from the crowd either climbed to the top of the triangular tower by stepping on all kinds of praise and derision, or were trampled to the bottom by all kinds of rejection and disgust.
Reiko clearly belonged to the latter category. She was naturally straightforward and would not use a honeyed tongue to please others, nor would she hate her unique ability.
Three Ri-Yue had followed many extraordinary masters. Perhaps their personalities were not the same, but they all had a common trait, which was tolerance and generosity. This trait could be easily discovered in Reiko. This was also what Three Ri-Yue admired the most about her. Especially when he found out that she was able to maintain this kind of gentleness even after going through so many difficulties that were very painful for normal humans. This made him love her even more, and his heart ached for her.
He watched as she nonchalantly talked about how she was despised by humans in the past. Just as he was about to comfort her, he heard her mention that she had made agreements with many monsters, but most of them were not fulfilled. This time, he had a feeling that she would encounter the Asura Field.
A few black lines appeared on the back of Three Ri-Yue's head. The smile on his face froze for a moment. Was this some kind of scumbag heartless man? His image as a healer's God Inquisitor collapsed in an instant.
The corner of his mouth twitched. He asked helplessly, "So, compared to being able to see your friends again, are these things more important?"
Reiko was stumped by his question. That's right. Compared to these messy worries, she clearly wanted to see those monsters again.
Although monsters had long lifespans, they would encounter many accidents. She did not know if those monsters who had signed their names in the contact book were still there. Oh right, she did not know where that contact book that she had never mentioned by name was … In short, she really, really wanted to see them again.
Once she understood, Reiko's face showed a relieved expression. Then there was the matter of the child. Actually, she felt more guilty towards those monsters. However, when it came to the child, it was pure guilt and fear.
When Three Ri-Yue heard her say that she might have a child, he was also stunned. Later, when he thought about how she had taken care of the group of daggers in This Pill, and how much motherly love she had shown, he felt that he should not be surprised.
Thus, when he found out about this, his first reaction was to wonder if the group of daggers would be jealous after knowing about this.
"I'm a little scared …" Reiko was really afraid of facing that child. She was clearly someone who was not even afraid of monsters.
"If that child really exists, will that child blame me … That's not right. Even if he/she doesn't blame me, I will blame myself for leaving so early."
Looking at her especially dejected expression, Three Ri-Yue rudely reached out his hand and gently rubbed her head as if he was treating a child. "This is not your fault. Fate is unpredictable. It is not something we can control. But, even if you don't remember, I think you must be the best mother in the world. "
Three Ri-Yue's hand was very big, and his words were very warm. In an instant, Reiko's dejected heart returned to normal. Half of her face leaned on her curled up knees. She turned her head to look at him. Under the moonlight, the young-looking grandpa looked very handsome, just like a god.
"Grandpa, it's so good to have you …" So that she did not have to wander around the abyss of loneliness.
"…" Three Ri-Yue's hand that was stroking her long hair slightly paused. Although he had always called himself "grandpa", she had never called him that usually. Wasn't it a little too much to suddenly call him "grandpa" at this time?
He was originally comforting her as a peer, but suddenly being treated as an elder … It made him feel a little depressed.
But, what could he do? Of course, he could only forgive her!
The two of them chatted for a long time. From the ink-black night to the gradually brightening sky, it was basically Reiko who was talking. It had to be said that Three Ri-Yue was definitely an excellent listener. He only occasionally added a sentence or two to enlighten her. Under the catalysis of alcohol, Reiko did not hold back at all to tell him about her past happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. Gradually, the empty wine jars around the two of them kept piling up. Reiko's thoughts also began to become confused.
She seemed to hear Three Ri-Yue laughing and asking her to agree to something. She did not hear anything clearly at all. She subconsciously agreed, and then completely fell into darkness.
Hearing that she agreed to his request, Three Ri-Yue drank the last mouthful of wine. He slightly lowered his eyes and looked at the Divine Inquisitor who had fallen into a deep sleep holding onto his sleeve. His curved eyes slowly opened, revealing a pair of gentle eyes. The corners of his mouth also slowly curled up. He really liked this attitude of hers when she trusted him.
He stared at her for a long time. It was not until the slightly cold night wind blew by that she curled up her body that he came back to his senses. He carefully took off his robe and put it on her body. Then, he got up, bent down, and carried her up horizontally.
Perhaps because she was too sleepy, or perhaps because she felt a familiar breath, Reiko did not wake up from Three Ri-Yue's actions. Instead, she took the initiative to find a comfortable position in his arms and fell into a deep sleep. Seeing this, Three Ri-Yue chuckled in a low voice.
When Reiko woke up, it was already noon of the next day. When Hasebe and a few other small daggers came to wake her up worriedly, they were furious when they saw her holding her head in pain. Then, Candlestick, who came to check on her, blamed himself even more. He went to give the drunkards in This Pill a good scolding. He also confiscated all their wine and hid it in a place where they could not find it.
The drunkards stared innocently with their big eyes and were about to cry. After Reiko, who was protected by Hasebe and was not scolded completely woke up, she was so guilty that she did not dare to look at them. As soon as she raised her head, she would be drowned by the deep sadness in their eyes.
To make things worse, Reiko hesitantly told them that she was going to leave for the modern world to look for her memory (child) the next day. That moment of stagnation almost suffocated her.
"Child?!"
The big and small Fu Mourning God looked at each other blankly. Then, they stared at Reiko with a particularly complicated expression for a long time. Reiko was about to explode. Just when she wanted them to say whatever they wanted to say, the group of Fu Mourning God suddenly dispersed and ran away without looking back, leaving the confused Reiko behind.
Reiko turned to ask Three Ri-Yue, who was so happy that tears almost came out of his eyes after seeing their reaction. "Are they … angry?"
Three Ri-Yue shook his head. He clearly knew what the Fu Mourning God were thinking, but he did not say it out loud. He smiled and said, "How could they be angry? They will never be angry with My Lord."
"Then what are they doing?"
"You'll know soon …"
Reiko looked at his carefree appearance and really wanted to go up and scratch him.
For the whole afternoon, no Fu Mourning God came to Reiko. This made Reiko, who was used to being dragged around by Snickersnee whenever she stayed in This Pill, very uncomfortable.
It was not until dinner time that the big and small Fu Mourning God excitedly appeared in the dining room with all kinds of things. Only then did Reiko know what they were doing.
"My Lord, this is the best-selling tiger doll in Wanwu. I hope your child will like it."
The Five Tigers Retreat looked at her with sparkling eyes and handed her a white tiger doll that was exactly the same as his tiger cub in his arms. Reiko recognized it. This doll was the most popular toy among the female inquisitors in Wanwu Boutique … It was very expensive.
Song Deity Kaneko was holding several sets of newly made clothes of different sizes for boys and girls. His handsome face was apologetic. "Because I don't know whether My Lord's child is a boy or a girl, I made some of them. There's still some time in the evening, so I'll make a few sets of bigger ones."
Candlestick Cut did not say anything and handed over a packed box of pastries. Reiko leaned over to take a look. The box was full of all kinds of pastries. There was a rabbit-shaped cherry blossom cake, an eagle-shaped taro cake, and Snickersnee's favorite strawberry daifu …
There were also all kinds of beautiful accessories, expensive and exquisite safety guards, fox dolls, nail polish, shawls, herbs with all kinds of effects, and so on. Almost every Fu Mourning God was holding something in their hands. Under Reiko's shocked and confused gaze, they were beaming with joy and placed in front of her one by one.
"My Lord, these are our kind intentions. It would be great if your child could use them."
"It seems like we prepared quite a lot. Master, can the storage system you mentioned fit all of them?"
"If it can't fit all of them, can we let My Lord choose some of them and bring them over?"
"That's true …"
The storage system was the result of the hardworking technical nerds from Hell's technical department working overnight after being scolded by Ghost Lantern. After the AI system was updated, there was an additional storage function of about one cubic meter. Although the area had yet to be developed, it was already quite convenient for inquisitors who wanted to bring some simple luggage or local specialties.
Now, it came in handy.
Reiko watched as the Fu Mourning God began to discuss what to bring. She was enveloped by a warm feeling. Even the tears that flowed out of her sour eyes were sweet.
Seeing her suddenly cry, the Fu Mourning God was shocked. A few Snickersnee rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Does My Lord not like these things?"
"Are we being too presumptuous?"
"My Lord, we can prepare other gifts. What do you think of baby and bebe (snapdragon)?"
"My Lord …"
The group of Snickersnee spoke one after another. They were extremely considerate. Reiko only felt that in front of them, no matter how cold and hard her heart was, it would definitely melt.
