This Legend is Fishy Chapter 10

The question of how the bathroom should be used was ultimately decided at the dinner table.

The sukiyaki soup is still simmering, the aroma of the food permeates the air, and the slightly rising warm white steam seems to warm the stomach as well.

River quietly 'peeped' at the person sitting opposite her through the blur of white steam. It was a Fu Sangshen with a somewhat ferocious face, who seemed unwilling to stay with other people. After River came in, he just gave her a cold look and then lowered his head to eat in silence. He was completely different from the little daggers next to him who exclaimed "Wow---there really is a sword girl." .

River did not feel lonely because of the unfriendly attitude of the other party. River was taught Japanese swordsmanship by Marlon on the way, and River was full of curiosity about his new colleagues. At this moment, River was still in high spirits and silently guessing in his heart. What kind of knife does the opponent have?

However, Tai Dao, who was being watched secretly by her, became increasingly stiff for some unknown reason.

"you..."

Finally, the other party couldn't help but speak. His voice was a little low, but unexpectedly very pleasant.

"Can you please stop staring at me..."

Ah---I was discovered---

River, who thought she had concealed it well, immediately lowered her head. She picked up the thinly sliced   beef with her chopsticks, and quickly stuffed it into her mouth as if she was eager to cover up her rudeness.

"Woo---" She let out a slight cry, and the hot and rich soup overflowing from the meat slices touched the tip of her tongue. She resisted the movement of covering her mouth with her hands and stared at him with complicated emotions. with the steaming food in the bowl.

"Pfft..." Someone laughed softly.

However, before River could recover, a hand holding a water glass appeared in front of him. Probably because he was afraid that the soup would splash on his clothes, he rolled up the sleeves of his shirt. His wrists, as white and slender as snow, looked soft under the warm orange light of the restaurant.

"Drink some water." His voice sounded a little low, but there was a gentle smile on his face.

River remembers this fusangshen, a dagger of the Awataguchi sect, Rando Shiro's brother--Yaken Toshiro.

She pursed her lips slightly, then stretched out her hands to carefully take the quilt, and took a slow sip of water.

Gudong---

The soothed tip of her tongue finally felt better under the soothing of ice water. She stuck out her tongue and licked her lips like a kitten, and then heard the laughter that sounded when she was burned again.

This time she turned her head following the sound, and then found that Yaoyan, who had just handed her the water, raised his index finger slightly and put it to his lips. His laughter seemed to be overflowing from his chest, low and deep. Nice to hear.

"Sorry, because you..." Like a newborn animal.

He didn't say these words, but just looked at her with gentle eyes and said softly, "The sukiyaki just made is a bit hot, please be careful."

River immediately forgot that the other party seemed to be laughing at her just now. She nodded, and then showed a sweet and soft smile, "Thank you, I will pay attention."

Hiashiri remained silent. When he noticed the conversation between River and Yaoyan, he suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked sideways at Dadian Taiguangshi next to him.

"You have been staring at the opposite side, Dadian Taidian."

... Odenta's body froze for a moment. He turned back to look at the innocent-looking Hashiri. After being silent for a long time, he hesitated and uttered "I didn't..." ..."

"Oh?" Hiashiri raised his eyebrows slightly, but thinking that the person in front of him was the kind of person who would get hairy if teased too much, he did not continue to tease him.

Although there was no change in Dadian Taiguangshi's face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Marlon, who was the first to come into contact with River, was currently preparing to discuss the use of the bathroom with Candouqiri, so he did not notice the undercurrent on their side.

The bathroom matter is easy to say, as long as you use it at different times, but there are so many people in the house, and the government of the time does not know when it will suddenly issue an order to go out. It's not a pleasant thing to have the enemy's blood on your body, especially those guys like Honmaru who went straight to the bathroom after returning from battle.

Therefore, even if River swears with her starry eyes that she takes a quick shower, Marlon can't help but take other factors into consideration.

after all---

He couldn't help but imagine that River ran to the bathroom humming a song. When he opened the door, he found Dota Nuki's Xiangjiang taking a bath. He always felt that instead of screaming, he would hug the wooden basin with a look on his face. She said longingly to Dota Nuki, "Your figure is really good."

No, it's too dangerous!

Marlon, River's former master, although he was a fake, Kuninaga, faced the dagger in front of him who was trying to cool down the food, and fell into deep worry.

It's a pity that the little dagger who is addicted to food has completely failed to realize the fatherly care of her master. Now she seems to have opened the door to a new world. From the tip of her tongue to her stomach, the food brings indescribable warmth. .

The thinly sliced   beef is so tender that it feels like it melts in your mouth. The aroma of shiitake mushrooms is perfectly integrated into the soup. The neatly arranged bamboo rings have slightly wrinkled skin as if they have been roasted, and are powdery on the side. The white and white fish cakes match each other to make the dish brighter.

Served with Candelabra's special soup, it's so delicious that you want to swallow it all with your tongue.

With the feeling that delicious food must not be wasted, River drank all the soup. Although Todachi Kiri is the one with the best cooking skills in Honmaru, because the Orions have been together for too long, the other little knife masters who have been completely accustomed to the taste of food will no longer show anything like surprise. , expressions such as praise.

The candlestick looks a little lonely.

However, seeing the little dagger who carefully put the chopsticks away and looked at him sideways with eyes that looked like reverence made him feel happy at this moment.

He turned his face away, put his hand into a fist and put it to his lips and coughed lightly.

River tilted her head slightly. Although they had not known each other for a long time, Candlestick Cut was always gentle and reliable when he was in front of her. Fu Changshen, who has been pursuing handsomeness, showed such a shy and shy expression, which made River find it very strange.

California Kiyomitsu, who was holding his cheek with his hand, let out a slight tut for some reason. He turned his head and said lazily to Marlon, "How about it, do you want to start deciding when to use the bathroom?"

"Eh? Why do we have to set a time?" Horikawa blinked. He pointed at River and looked a little confused. "Anyway, River is the only girl. When someone uses the bathroom, why don't you just hang a sign? alright."

But what if someone forgets to turn over the sign? The master who is always overthinking is ready to take action.

Probably sensing Marlon's worry, Horikawa smiled helplessly, "Even if the time is limited, some people will forget it."

"It's obviously a very simple thing, why is it so complicated..." Ran complained in a low voice, "Just do what Horikawa said and hang up the sign."

"But..."

But there was nothing wrong with it. Hanging the sign at the door of the bathroom was approved by almost all Fu Sangshen.

Although it seems a bit hasty, after all, this is the first time that Honmaru forged a sword girl. However, the fusangshen gathered here all felt that if they were to be together for so long in the future, there would still be time to explore how to get along.

Of course, there are exceptions.

For example, in order to understand the little dagger in front of him as quickly as possible, after eating, he urged Yaoyan to go with them to find information about the fish intestine sword, Qing Guang and the other daggers.

On the other side, the object of attention, River, perfectly played the role of Candelabra's caring little cotton-padded jacket. She hovered around Candelabra, helping to pack things anyway.

Mikazuki smiled and sat back on the corridor holding the tea cup. He looked through the layers of maple leaves in the courtyard and looked up at the sunset sky. River's footsteps came from behind, probably to help her out more. She walked very fast, completely different from the confused little dagger who would trip over herself at the beginning.

The hem of her skirt rippled like waves as she walked, and her braided hair swayed gently behind her. Hichiri folded his arms and leaned against the pillar of the corridor. His long eyelashes were lightly illuminated by the setting sun. Then he calmly raised his hand and pulled the coat that was about to slip off.

After all, it was already sunset, and the wind started to pick up in Honmaru.

Mikazuki put the cup aside and stood up with some regret. According to his long-standing habit, he was going to chat with other people and then go to bed after a while.

"Sure enough, I still care a little." The moment Mikazuki turned around, Hashiri said softly.

The crescent moon in Mikazuki's eyes has not faded due to sunset. In his eyes are the crimson pillars and the small dagger at the other end, which is talking to the candlestick with its head raised.

"Huh?" The corners of his lips were raised slightly, and his voice seemed to be stuck together.

"Since the purpose is to select exchange students to fight against the retrograde army, shouldn't the government of the time choose people with certain combat experience?"

However, from the small dagger in front of her, it can be clearly inferred from her words and deeds that this is a sword that was summoned for the first time and has never been on the battlefield.

Hichiri didn't mean to reject River. The reason for his doubts was just out of curiosity.

Sanriyue also understood this, so he just raised his hand to drink the cold tea in the cup, and then showed a calm smile that seemed to be able to tolerate all things, "I guess he has never fought against the sword of the retrograde army on that side, It will be easier to adapt to the new battlefield."

"There may be many reasons, but it doesn't matter. After all, we are a rare new partner..." He retracted his hand and put the teacup in his arms. However, when he saw Kneemaru walking out of the restaurant, looking around for his brother, he simply stretched out his hand and stuffed the empty teacup into his arms.

"Let's get along well together." Ignoring Kneemaru who was staring blankly at the teacup that suddenly appeared in his arms, Mikazuki said to Hashigeri in a gentle tone.
