As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

"Gu Xunjun...I...that..."

Matsuri subconsciously looked at the woman next to her. The woman was holding her arms and still not looking at her. She couldn't answer on her own initiative like this.

The general glanced at Ji's expression at this moment, and she couldn't bear to see it, and he sighed inwardly.

"Location?"

She looked at Gu Xun coldly.

"——! The next stop is at——"

"lead the way."

She interrupted the other party's straightforward order and accepted the other party's plea by default.

"I see…"

Gu Xun breathed a sigh of relief and touched the cold sweat on his forehead, feeling grateful for the gentleness of the two of them.

"Xiao Mio..."

Matsuri looked stunned after hearing this.

"I don't want to see you looking sad. This time is an exception."

She looked away and answered dully, with a hint of arrogance in her tone.

"……puff."

He smiled knowingly.

Obviously... the kindest one is Mio.

beep!

Following the electronic sound of the train arriving at the station, the doors opened to the left and right. The three of them walked out and followed Hanchuan in front of them along a somewhat hidden road to an abandoned factory.

The sky was falling into dusk at this moment, and the steel facilities inside the factory stood around like a jungle. From time to time, there would be the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, giving people a sense of eerie oppression. Matsuri couldn't help but frown as he looked at the scene around him. The general frowned as calmly as ever.

"After the incident at your funeral home, they said they wanted to get rid of Run, so we took advantage of the chaos and escaped."

During this period, Hanchuan kept explaining what happened before to the two girls behind him.

"..."×2

Neither of them answered, but just followed behind.

"Take fun of me, I deserve it..."

He laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Gu Xunjun..."

Matsuri pursed his lips and looked at the back in front of him.

"Can you please stop thinking of us so superficially?"

The general asked coldly.

"That's right...I'm sorry."

If you were superficial, you wouldn't have said the previous words to him.

……

.........

The two Hankawa brothers were now hiding in an abandoned dormitory where factory employees had stayed. When the two followed each other into the room, they saw Shota, who was lying on the sofa in a coma, which was Hankawa Tanihiro's younger brother, Samkawa Jun. .

It was still pitch black outside the window. Perhaps for the sake of concealment, the lights were not turned on in the room... The only thing that could barely illuminate the room was the silvery radiance of the moonlight, and this light happened to be projected on the sofa where Run was lying.

After a few people entered the room, the general closed the door and locked it. Gu Xun squatted beside Run out of habit, taking care of him and wiping his sweat.

"……this is!"

Matsuri walked gently to Run's side and found that the other person's symptoms were more serious than what she had seen before. Half of his face and even his body had been eroded beyond recognition by the crystals. If this continued...she no longer dared to think about it.

"There are no outsiders here. If you want to say anything, just say it. I'm listening."

The general stood behind the other party and asked coldly.

"...I want to ask you, can you... lend me some money?"

Gu Xun did not turn around, and kept staring at Run on the sofa, asking with a trembling tone. The excited look before had disappeared, leaving only a decadent look that was crushing his spirit, fragile and unbearable.

"..."×2

Neither of them answered.

"Please, everything is fine... We need money to escape and eat. I have no money anymore."

There were traces of exhaustion in the corners of the young man's eyes, his hair was a little messy, and his voice was a little hoarse. They had not seen each other's current state before.

Gu Xun turned around and slowly knelt down to the two of them, placing his forehead on the ground and pleading.

"Gu Xunjun..."

Matsuri pursed his lips and looked at Gu Xun, who was kneeling, and Run, who was almost losing his human form. Without hesitation, he picked up his schoolbag and planned to take the money, but the next second, someone around him held his wrist.

"...Xiao Mio?"

Matsuri paused and did not struggle.

"Before that, I want to hear you apologize to her."

The general still said to him indifferently.

"I'm sorry, Matsuri... I was wrong. After that, you hated me no matter how you scolded me or laughed at me. I'm sorry, please save us, save Run... please."

pat...

A tear slipped from the corner of the boy's eye, one drop, two drops, and finally the other party cried, even giving up his dignity.

"Xiao Mio..."

Seeing the other party like this, Matsuri felt a little heartbroken and stroked the general's wrist.

"..."

Looking at the other person's eyes, she stopped being persistent. She let go of the other person's hand and let the girl quickly come to the other person's side. She squatted down with her skirt in hand and stuffed all the remaining money in the bag into the other person's chest. In coat pocket.

"I only brought so much today, and I don't know if it will be enough. Let's take it first."

After the sacrifice, he apologized and explained.

"Well, that's enough...that's really enough, thank you, Matsuri."

Gu Xun wiped his tears and bowed to her again.

"No need...Runjun is important."

She waved her hand.

"Are you just going to keep running away?"

The general asked intentionally when he saw this.

"...I don't know, but...if you don't run away from the current situation, you will die. Just take one step at a time."

Gu Xun answered her.

Matsuri returned to the general's side...looking at the brothers in front of him with sad eyes.

The general lowered his eyes and thought for a while... During this period, he thought about the manpower and material resources of the funeral society. Perhaps the funeral society could be involved, or they could give these two people a safe environment to live in.

In this case, she had to tell Ya as the leader, no - tell Qi, because she only had Qi's contact information.

click...

He opened his terminal and dialed Qi's line.

The words "Contacting" appeared on the screen...

Di-

Within a few seconds the call was connected.

"...Mio?"

Qi on the other side of the screen had now put on a dark evening dress for the banquet. Her originally tied braids were spread out and decorated with exquisite hair accessories. The light makeup on her face made the originally beautiful girl look better. The hair is beautiful and charming.

"Pray... I have something to tell you."

During the period, Matsuri also leaned over and looked at the screen.

"What happened? Wait - where are you now?"

Qi Shi was keenly aware that the environment behind the two of them was dim and unfamiliar. His brows instantly wrinkled slightly, and his tone became serious, but concern accounted for half of it.

"We'll talk about this later. Right now, it's mainly about the matter of Samkawa Guxun, that is, the matter of 'Sugar'."

"I see, I understand...I'll go talk to Ya, wait a minute..."

呲味——

After speaking, the phone hangs up.

"…What do you want?"

Gu Xun couldn't help but ask after watching her action of cutting off contact.

"...If possible, I want the funeral society to protect you. After all...you also understand...hiding here is not a long-term solution."

she answered.

"……you--"

beep!

When Gu Xun was about to say something, a terminal prompt interrupted him. The general connected it, and a picture of Ya wearing a white suit appeared on the screen.

"Maybe I heard about it. Are they with you now?"

Ya asked.

"good."
