Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 818

Actually, Shizuko was probably the only one who often played with Kousaka Kyosuke.

This girl probably enjoys making sarcastic remarks and has a cheerful personality, so he often plays with her like this.

Characters like Yukino and Sue would feel very ashamed, and those with introverted personalities would probably be in a bad state afterward.

People like Xiangzi and Sushang seem to be more focused on their work, and might even protest.

Kagura, Komachi, and Megumi—those still somewhat naive girls—would be even less likely to misbehave...

In short, it's better to associate with people who have a more open-minded perspective.

So it seems that the red spider lily is indeed quite beautiful.

If it weren't for the bleeding, Kousaka Kyosuke would have thought this woman was very experienced.

Why are you running around everywhere?

"Well, I just sensed something was going on at sea, because these days it seems like sea monsters have been asking about news from Kyoto."

"Sirens... Speaking of sirens, I recall some events from over two hundred years ago—oh, by the way, what was it like to subdue a monster that was hundreds of years old? Tell me about it."

"What feelings do I have? Do you think I'm deliberately showing off?"

"I can't say for sure."

"would not."

Kyosuke Kosaka suddenly stepped back, picked up Higanbana again, and made her sit on his lap.

The red spider lily, blinking its eyes, seemed somewhat puzzled.

"I didn't say you could do whatever you want."

"please."

"Oh, if your tone weren't so bossy, I would find it very pleasant to listen to."

"Well……"

Feeling that the spider lily's mouth was a bit annoying, Kyosuke Kousaka decided to shut her up.

This woman isn't particularly sharp-tongued, but the sarcasm in her words really makes you feel a jolt in your head.

Kyosuke Kosaka was aware of this as well.

The red spider lily is the same to everyone, but when it comes to him, it seems to have added some special seasoning.

Is this what they call "love"?

Kyosuke Kosaka wasn't quite sure, but he noticed that Higanbana was quite compliant in these kinds of matters.

Qingji is the same, but her situation is more like "turning the tables" than "taking the initiative".

It's almost time.

That is, when they are preparing to receive Kagura and Yukino.

Kousaka Kyosuke prepared a meal for Aohime and Higanbana before leaving.

"Let's have a warm farewell ceremony—"

Qingji was reluctant to part, and although she said she didn't want to go back with them, she still made a special request.

Kyosuke Kosaka held a farewell ceremony that lasted for half a cup of tea.

After releasing the dizzy Qing Ji, he also walked towards the other shore flower.

"I don't eat other people's saliva," the spider lily said with a smile.

"I'll eat yours!"

Kyosuke Kosaka replied with great confidence, without stopping his walking pace.

The consequence was that they got bitten in the end.

"I will keep this blood as a special ritual to mark our bond."

The red spider lily lightly licked her finger.

A drop of bright red blood fell onto her slender, white fingers.

The blood seemed to glow, which was quite eerie.

Kyosuke Kosaka's lips twitched: "Why not use the red thread of fate? I know the God of Fate, it's more affordable to buy the red thread from him, and the method of forming a bond is safe and reliable."

"Okay! Kyosuke, you have to buy it!" Aohime, snapping out of her daze, leaned closer.

Kousaka Kyosuke could only pat Aohime's head and sigh inwardly.

A double kill is a double kill.

However, the troubles that follow are still quite troublesome.

On the journey from the underworld to the mortal realm.

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't feel any regret.

In Qingji's case, the favorability level has been reached. Just keep going, and if you appease her, there won't be any problems.

At least for now, there are no apparent problems.

You just need to be careful about the timing of your meeting.

They had just had sex, and then he went to see her a few days later... Hmm, it seems like Qingji isn't the kind of woman who would give up so easily. It would be better for her to take the initiative to write letters and communicate, and actively maintain contact.

To avoid the possibility that one day she might encounter Qingji, who is observing her through some unknown means.

I have a strong feeling that this is highly likely.

Where are the red spider lilies?

Kyosuke Kosaka felt that keeping things as they were was fine.

Letter correspondence also began to take off.

Ultimately, the red spider lily is indeed a woman; she frowns when her petals fall and sheds water when she is in high spirits. In short, she should be treated as a lover.

I just hope this woman stops trying to have fun with him.

at dusk.

Kyosuke Kosaka picked up Kagura, Yukino, Suzune Horikita, and the others and brought them back.

Not long after returning, he learned from Hikigaya that Takashina Nobuyoshi really was leading men to arrest homeless people at night.

I was completely bewildered.

"That's certainly sneaky, but the problem is it's very easy to find fault with them."

Kousaka Kyosuke slandered.

Arresting people during the day disrupted the safety and order of Kyoto, causing widespread fear among the civilians.

Arresting people at night, or disrupting the safety and order of Kyoto...

No matter what you do, it's wrong.

Never mind, this isn't his responsibility.

At this moment, the Taoist priests were all watching him closely, and the officials in the imperial court who were affiliated with the Taoist priests had prepared countless indictments.

Then, when you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext.

Anyway, I want to find fault with you, to make you feel like even living is a sin.

Never mind, the matter is settled anyway.

"Be patient in matters of arresting people. If there is anything else, you can tell me."

"You flatter me, Lord Kyosuke."

"Okay, you go ahead and do your thing."

"Yes."

Hikigaya bowed and took his leave.

On the way back, I still felt quite heavy-hearted.

He still felt a sense of injustice seeing the homeless being arrested one by one, then whipped and urged to carry out the filth in the shelter.

Of course, he also understood that he had to suppress these emotions.

Only by overthrowing those who are led by high-ranking officials but are actually instructed by the Minister of the Interior, Ichiju, can we succeed.

Only then can the homeless population as a whole be truly at peace.

At the very least, Hikigaya firmly believed that the homeless would fare better when managed by the Taoist priest's orders.

As for how good it is?

Hachiman didn't think much of it.

After all, he knew that this era was dominated by the exploitation and oppression of labor.

Unable to fundamentally change the situation, all Hachiman can do is hope to improve their treatment from "only being able to drink porridge" to "occasionally being able to eat a full meal"...
