Chapter 310 Mr. Tachibana, please get married to Souji! 【6000】
Qingto's eyes started from the tatami, rising inch by inch.
Feet covered with clean white socks.
Light green belt.
The purple and white kimono was neatly arranged without any wrinkles.
Finally, Qingto's eyes were fixed on Okita Hikaru's face that was slightly red from drinking.
No matter how many times I watch it, the two sisters, Okita Hikaru and Okita Souji, look so much alike.
From the forehead to the eyes, from the tips of the ears to the chin, regardless of the face shape or the shape of the facial features, the similarity is as high as 90%.
If it weren't for the height difference, Okita Hikaru would be nearly a head taller than Souji, otherwise an uninformed person would definitely think that the two sisters are twins.
On a normal day, Qingto would be very interested in discussing in depth the similarities and differences in appearance between the Okita sisters.
But obviously - now is not the time.
call……
At this time, a gust of cold wind with a sharp chill passed through the crack of the window that was not closed tightly beside Qingdeng, leaked into the hall, and hit Qingdeng's body squarely.
The sudden cold wind blew the sweat on Qingden's forehead to the point where it was almost frosty, and the pores under his clothes swelled, forming dense goosebumps.
It was only at this moment that Qingdeng realized that he was sweating a lot—all cold sweat—both because of the cold on the outside of his body and because of the cold on the inside.
Qingden felt his heart beating so fast.
The siren song of "something bad" sounded deep in my heart.
He looked into Hikaru Okita's eyes tremblingly.
"..."
Okita Hikaru, who was standing at the door, gave Aoto a calm look. He looked at Aoto who was hugging Souji in silence, with an unpredictable expression.
The cold wind that blew into the hall just now took away the heat from Qingdeng's body and also blew away the chaotic thoughts in Qingdeng's mind.
"Stupidity" was dispelled.
Qingdeng absorbed his thoughts that had flown away from the banquet hall.
Reason regains the initiative of body and consciousness at lightning speed.
As if he had been scalded by boiling water, Aomori quickly released his hands from Souji's thin and beautiful back, and then told the reality to Okita Hikaru deliberately and calmly:
"……This is a misunderstanding."
If Nagakura, Saito, Harada and others appeared here, Qingto would not be worried at all.
After all, Nagakura and the others don't know Souji's true gender. In their worldview, Souji's image has always been that of a "cute boy with a very lovable appearance."
The characters and thoughts of these gentlemen are more straight than the others. Even if they see Qingteng and the Chief Si hugging each other, they most likely will not doubt that Qingteng is a good person.
However... the person who appeared outside the door at this moment was Hikaru Okita...
This is the person Qingden is most afraid of seeing now...
Unlike Nagakura and others, Okita Hikaru knew that Souji's true gender was revealed by Aoto.
Imagine this: a young man who is sane and in his prime of life, falls on the tatami and hugs his beloved sister who is drunk and unconscious...
For a moment, Qingden had the illusion that he was in the depths of a battlefield where bullets were flying everywhere.
The sense of existential crisis was so strong that he couldn't ignore it, firmly surrounding his whole body.
I wonder if it’s because Okita Hikaru’s sister’s aura is too strong, so Qingdeng is in front of Okita Hikaru... To put it nicely, he has always been on the weaker side. To put it bluntly, he has an inexplicable feeling towards Okita Hikaru.
Fear...
Whenever Okita kept his face straight, Qingden's body would tremble uncontrollably.
However... fear is useless.
There is no point in feeling panic and panic about what has happened and past history.
We can only accept the current situation as it is and then try to find a solution...or a "way to survive"...
Qingden took a deep breath.
The extraordinary lung capacity endowed by the gifted "iron lung" enables Qingdeng's lungs to hold far more air than an ordinary person.
Full of breath.
Prepare your emotions and think of your words.
Then--
"Okita-kun is like this. She just wanted to drink again. After I confiscated her bottle, she rushed over and tried to snatch the bottle back. During the fight, she accidentally fell and bumped into me. I couldn't react in time and followed her.
They fell to the ground together."
Qingdeng told the truth of the incident in a concise and concise manner without any pause.
The gift of "smart tongue" makes great achievements.
Qingdeng's flexible and powerful tongue makes Qingdeng's speech very clear. Even if he speaks without any pause, he can be heard very clearly.
If you have to explain it yourself, you will inevitably be suspected of being a false witness.
So Qingteng raised his hands, pressed Souji's narrow but round shoulders, shook Souji's body vigorously like shaking milk powder, and called to Souji urgently:
"Okita-kun, wake up! Wake up!"
"Uh-huh……"
The director-general muttered like he was dreaming.
When you look at it, you feel like your elastic and moist red lips are moving gently... as if you are chewing something.
After a moment, she opened her eyes a little, looked at Qingdeng with a silly look, then closed them again and said:
"Jijun...you just made me hurt..."
"Hello!"
——You are the one who caused me so much pain!
My back, which had just come into close contact with the tatami, and my leg, which had been bitten by Souji a little earlier, were still aching slightly.
This kind of remarks can trigger people's endless reverie and can make the current situation tense instantly. No matter how you think about it, it is not good.
Just as Qingdeng was sweating and thinking about how to remedy the situation——
"...So that's what it is."
Okita Hikaru nodded slightly, then moved his steps lightly, walked to Qingden's side and squatted down.
"Tachibana-kun, I'm sorry for causing you any trouble."
"Uh... ah, no, it's okay, no need to apologize. It's just a trivial matter, it can't be called 'causing trouble'."
Qingto looked at Hikaru Okita dumbfounded.
Judging from Okita's expression and the words she just said, she completely understood and accepted Qingto's explanation.
Although Okita Hikaru was willing to accept his explanation so quickly, which made Qingto breathe a sigh of relief, this kind of trust that he didn't even ask a question in return still made Qingto feel at a loss.
Okita Hikaru seemed to see through Qingto's thoughts.
She said calmly:
"Tachibana-kun, I know what you are like. I believe you will not do anything rude to the chief...to Xiaosi."
Short explanation.
The explanation that made the big stone hanging on Qing Deng's heart fall to the ground.
The lines on Qingdeng's face were completely relaxed and no longer tense.
He was pleased with Hikaru Okita's understanding and understanding. Aoto, who was relieved to be rid of the suspicion of molesting Souji, let out a sigh of relief and turned his happy emotions into his voice.
——That's right... Thinking about it carefully, I was completely nervous just now. Miss Guang is a well-educated and intellectual beauty. As long as you explain to her sincerely, she will definitely listen and will never make any mistakes.
Doubt my words.
The deepest impression that Hikaru Okita left on Qingto was that he was so considerate in dealing with people and had such a high emotional intelligence that he did not look like a young girl who is only 27 years old this year.
27 years old... In modern times, this age is just the age when you first enter the workplace.
It is indeed unlikely that a person like Okita Hikaru would do anything irrational.
Qingto was immersed in the joy of "surviving the crisis"... Therefore, he completely failed to notice that Okita Hikari quietly raised his gaze at this time.
While looking at Souji who was sleeping beside her with elusive eyes, she murmured in a voice as soft as a mosquito's moan:
"...Actually...if you hugged Xiao Si secretly with your own will...I would actually be happier..."
After she finished speaking, a touch of regret floated between her eyebrows.
"Hmm? Miss Guang, did you say something just now?"
Qingto not only didn't notice Okita Hikaru's small movements, but also didn't hear Okita Hikaru's mumbling.
Only vaguely, I heard Okita Hikaru seeming to be talking.
Ever since Okita Hikaru temporarily stayed in Edo to take care of the sick Souji, there were two Okitas in the Imperial Guard Hall.
For the sake of convenience, with Okita Hikaru's acquiescence, all members of the trial academy, including Aoto, called Okita Hikaru "Ms. Hikari".
"Nothing said."
When Okita Hikaru said this, the regret gathering in the center of his eyebrows instantly dissipated.
"I'm just complaining that Xiaosi's wine quality is really bad."
After casually brushing off Aoto's questions, Okita walked barefoot to the sleeping Souji.
"Xiao Si. Wake up, wake up."
Since there were no outsiders around, Okita Hikaru changed her real nickname for Souji: Koji.
"Hmm...?"
Souji reacted to Okita Hikaru's voice and opened his eyes again.
She glanced at both sides innocently, then her gaze took a detour and caught Okita Hikaru's face.
"Sister...? Why do you keep shaking? Stop shaking, you look so dizzy..."
Okita Hikaru calmly stretched out his hand to support Souji, and said softly in a soothing tone like a child:
"If you feel dizzy, go back to your room and sleep quickly. Come on, give me your hand."
"Um...I don't want it!"
Souji twisted his body in a playful manner, trying to break away from Okita Hikaru's control.
"I still want to play...! I still want to drink...!"
"Be good, be obedient, and wait until you've had enough sleep in bed before you go play or drink. Stop making such nonsense. If you keep making trouble like this, I'm going to get angry."
She is indeed the eldest sister who has nurtured Souji. For Souji who is currently in a state of confusion, Okita Hikaru's warning is far more effective than Ayoto's persuasion.
As soon as Okita Hikaru finished speaking, Souji gradually calmed down as if he was under a spell...but soon became agitated again.
"I don't want it! I don't want it! Let me play a little longer!"
Souji threw himself into Hikari Okita's arms like a baby, burying his face deeply into the gap between the other's southern hemisphere and the kimono belt.
Blatantly ignoring her warning——Okita Hikaru acted very calmly towards Souji's behavior.
"..."
Okita Hikaru lowered his head silently, staring at the commander-in-chief's face as if nothing had happened.
The next moment, she sent out... cold words in a slow tone to the director:
"I want to play for a little longer...Xiao Si, let me confirm it for a moment - is this what you stand for?"
Okita Hikaru's expression did not change.
But the gentle tone disappeared.
Qingdeng, who was watching all this from a third-party perspective, clearly felt something called "critical point" at this moment.
It is about to reach the "critical point" of boiling point.
The "tipping point" that is approaching the limit of resistance to volcanic eruptions.
The magma was boiling gurglingly.
The director-general had a very violent reaction to Okita Hikaru's words.
As if it was an instinctive reaction, as if he had heard the most terrifying words in the world, Souji's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole in an instant.
"Ah wow, ah wow wow wow wow..."
Appeared - the signature cry of the Director-General.
When he feels shy or his mood swings wildly, Souji can't help but make an interesting cry of "ah wow wow" - this was accidentally discovered by Aoto when he discovered Souji's true gender.
Souji, who continued to scream like this, let go of Okita Hikaru's waist with trembling movements, and then slowly backed away on his hands and knees.
The limbs were trembling slightly.
Aggrieved face.
His eyes were dominated by intense fear.
While slowly opening the distance between you and your sister, carefully observe your sister's expression and reaction.
Weak, pitiful...but funny.
This scene made Qingden couldn't help but hallucinate this scene: a border collie with amazing aura and a shivering Shiba Inu.
Okita Hikaru did not change her indifferent expression, she stood up slowly:
"Xiao Si, let's go back to the room."
There was no tone of discussion.
There is also no discussion sentence structure.
Just giving orders.
This time, the director-general did not offer any resistance.
"yes……"
She pecked her head gently, and then half-lyed on the tatami like a surrendered prisoner of war, posing as if she would let Okita Hikaru deal with her. Although it seemed a bit unethical to do so, after seeing Souji's behavior
After putting on a funny look, Qingdeng thought it was funny and couldn't help but let out a chuckle that only he could hear.
"Tangerine-kun."
"Um?"
Qingdeng, who was suddenly called out, quickly suppressed the smile on his face and responded quickly.
"can you do me a favor?"
"Please say."
"Can you please help me carry Souji back to his room?"
"ah?"
"Despite Souji's appearance, she is actually quite heavy unexpectedly. It's late at night, and I'm a little tired. I don't have the energy to carry her anymore. Can you please give me a helping hand?"
"Uh...that's not a problem..."
Qingdeng had no reason to refuse such an easy and simple favor.
But...he has a question - Okita Hikaru looks very energetic, and he doesn't look tired at all...
…
Perhaps the drunkenness was rising again, so the director closed his eyes tightly and returned to unconsciousness.
Okita Hikaru tiptoed Souji, who had fallen asleep again, and gently placed him on Aoshito's back.
Qingden stretched out his hands, passed through Souji's legs, fixed Souji's body, and then raised his arms upward to confirm whether Souji was sitting firmly on his back.
It's winter now, so both Aomori and Souji are wearing thick clothes.
But even so, there is still a... wonderful touch that continuously penetrates the fabric and is transmitted to the skin of Qingden's back.
Even though the persimmons are compressed into persimmons, they are still persimmons.
Qingdeng's expression and limbs suddenly stiffened.
At this moment, Qingteng was forced to recall the unforgettable scenes of the last time he betrayed Souji...
This memory is still close to the inside of my scalp, and I can’t forget it even if I want to.
The last time I carried him back to the General Director - this goes back to one night this summer.
That night, Qingteng made many firsts while discovering Souji's true gender.
This is the first time I have to go back to the chief executive.
Taking a shower with the opposite sex for the first time.
For the first time, it was not through audio and video, but with my own naked eyes that I actually saw the body of the opposite sex.
It was the first time I caught a persimmon close to flesh.
These memories are rolling wildly in my mind.
Even the skin on the back and palms relived the incomparable and beautiful touch that is difficult to describe to outsiders.
At this time, the memory was interrupted by a rhetorical question that suddenly intervened in my thoughts:
"Huh? Mr. Tachibana, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly become stunned?"
Okita Hikaru stood beside Qingteng and blinked at Qingteng with a puzzled look on his face.
Qingdeng, who came back to his senses due to the interruption of his memories, quickly said haha:
"Uh, it's okay. It's just... I just feel that Okita-kun is so heavy."
"Oh..." Mitsuka Okita nodded in agreement, "Xiaosi is indeed quite heavy. She obviously looks very slim."
Seeing that he had successfully fooled Okita Hikari, Qingden breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he shook his head without leaving a trace, as if he wanted to get rid of all kinds of distracting thoughts from his mind.
——Concentrate! Stop thinking about those messy dirty things!
After cursing himself secretly, Qingden took a deep breath, gathered his mind, and carried the general secretary firmly on his back. He and Okita Hikaru walked out of the banquet hall one after another, climbed the stairs, and headed to the general secretary's room.
…
The chief's bedroom is still the same as before, and the decoration is very simple.
Okita Hikaru quickly spread the futon on the tatami, and then took Souji from Aoshito's back.
Help the chief executive take off his clothes, tuck the chief executive into the quilt with only his bottom layer left, and cover him with the quilt - all the above actions are done in one go.
When Okita Hikaru was helping Souji take off his clothes, Qingto turned around consciously and did not take any advantage of Souji when he was in danger.
"Huh...huh...huh..."
The quilt covering the Souji's body rose and fell rhythmically with the soothing sound of breathing.
The general secretary slept soundly, and a stream of crystal water leaked from the corner of his lips.
After smoothing out the last wrinkles on Souji's quilt, Okita Hikaru straightened up, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, turned his head, and smiled at Qingden:
"Ju-kun, thank you, it's been a big help."
"You're welcome."
Qingdeng said politely without thinking.
"I just did some small things that I could do."
After saying that, Qingdeng, who felt that he had completed his task, turned around without any hesitation and prepared to leave the headquarters' bedroom.
But at this moment, an unexpected incident occurred suddenly without any prior warning——
"...Tachibana-kun, recently...I have been following your advice and keeping a good eye on Xiao Si."
Words of unknown meaning floated behind him.
"ah?"
Qingdeng blinked in confusion, then paused and turned around. In front of him were intellectual eyes staring straight at him.
My brain belatedly realized what Okita Hikaru meant by "listening to your opinion".
Just over three months ago, when Okita Hikaru first came to Edo to attend Kondo Isamu's wedding, she and Souji had a sharp conflict over the issue of "whether to continue practicing kendo."
Okita Hikaru once tried to recruit Aoto as a foreign aid, asking Aoto to help her persuade Souji to give up kendo.
By that time, Ayoto had already known that Souji had always been disguised as a man because he had taken a bath with Souji. Through the conversation with Souji, he understood Souji's passion for kendo and his eagerness to continue practicing kendo.
Therefore, Aoto, who is on the side of Souji both rationally and emotionally, while confessing to Okita Hikaru that he already knew that Souji was a daughter, gave him a piece of advice: Souji is no longer the one who cannot stand alone.
Little girl, try to look at the director carefully, try to listen to the director's thoughts seriously.
"Tachibana-kun, I'm going back to Hino-juku tomorrow."
"So... if I don't tell you clearly what I've always wanted to say to you quickly, I might not have the chance in the future."
Having said this, Okita Hikaru slightly narrowed her eyes that shone with knowledge and reason, extended the corners of her mouth to both sides, and an intriguing smile appeared on her face.
"What have you always wanted to say to me?"
Qingto showed a confused expression.
I don’t know what Okita Hikaru wants to say.
Her tone sounded like she was speaking to somewhere far away, and it was impossible to guess her intentions.
All Qingdeng can do now is listen quietly.
"Tangerine-kun, I figured it out."
Okita Hikaru slowly leaned towards Aoto with his hands folded in front of him in a decent posture.
As Okita Hikaru gradually approached, Qingto suddenly discovered that - at some point, there was a smile on Okita Hikaru's face... just like the kind smile of an old mother seeing her long-awaited son-in-law.
"You and Xiao Si get married. As long as you get married to Xiao Si, I agree to let Xiao Si continue to practice swordsmanship."

Miss Okita's big victory~~This chapter is Okita's home court after a long absence. Book friends who like Okita should vote for this book - this is not too much, right? (Leopard Head Cries.jpg)
Please vote for me monthly! Please vote for recommendation!
ps: When writing about battles, people who wanted to watch daily life said, "What the hell are you writing?"; when writing about daily life, people said, "Only drawing swords and fighting can be considered as advancing the plot. Other than that, all the plots are just watershed."
It’s really hard to say “good water” to someone with a “number of words” (Leopard Death.jpg)
This book is a "bond-driven" novel, not a "protagonist looking for trouble" novel.
To use a game metaphor, it is a combination of Galgame + Japanese RPG like "Persona".
The protagonist unlocks the community by forming relationships with various people, and then gets to know more people and trigger various events.
Haven't you noticed that the plot of this book has always been progressed in this way?
Become associated with [people], then become associated with [events], and finally become associated with [history].
Therefore, if we don’t divide the text between the heroine and the supporting characters, and if we don’t describe the relationship between Qingdeng and the heroine and the supporting characters, the plot will not be able to advance.
