Chapter 646
It seemed, as if, there really was something extra in her heart.
That thing the Onmyoji said just now, about there being a shortest path to a woman's heart...
It couldn't be true, could it!
Vermouth lay there for a while, wanting to turn over.
Just moving slightly made her hiss in pain.
She suddenly pounded the mattress angrily with her small fists, muttering: "Bastard, big bastard, how could he do such a thing..."
Vermouth suddenly froze.
She stared blankly at the bedroom door, a thought rising in her heart.
Even that kind of barrier could be pierced through...
Could he be the real Silver Bullet?
It started raining outside at some point.
Akaso Kaze looked out the window, lost in thought.
He had just tried it; the time travel magic couldn't be used casually.
Akaso Kaze had tried all the points in time he had experienced in the past.
From the case downstairs at Jodie's to the earliest roller coaster, there wasn't a single point in time he could return to.
Since that's the case, what could this specific point in time be?
Ring-a-ding.
The cell phone rang suddenly.
Akaso Kaze answered the phone; it was Ran calling.
"Akaso-san, I, I'm at the school gate, I feel so unwell, I just asked the teacher for leave, can you come pick me up?"
Akaso Kaze got up immediately and used a Space Gate to arrive in the alley opposite Teitan High School.
Just as he walked out of the alley, he saw Mouri Ran leaning against the wall, looking like she was about to collapse.
"Ran? What's wrong?"
Akaso Kaze touched her forehead; she had a very high fever.
He picked her up, walked into the alley, opened a Space Gate, and in one step, they were back home.
Akaso Kaze searched the space with prediction magic, took out a vial of medicine, and gave it to Mouri Ran to drink.
He looked at the rooms on both sides, hesitated for a moment, and then carried Ran into Vermouth's room.
Vermouth was sitting in the bathtub, silently washing her body.
Her eyes were somewhat vacant, not knowing what she was thinking about.
The bathroom door suddenly opened, and Akaso Kaze stood at the entrance.
"You, what are you doing?"
Vermouth was so scared she quickly shrank into the water...
With this tension, a certain part began to ache faintly again.
Akaso Kaze curled his lips and walked in, carrying Mouri Ran.
"Ran has a fever, and since you have warm water right here, wash her up."
"Ran?"
Vermouth shrank to the side, watching Akaso Kaze help Mouri Ran take off her clothes and carry her into the water.
His movements were very gentle and careful, as if he were holding a piece of exquisite porcelain.
For some reason, Vermouth felt a surge of bitterness in her heart.
You are so gentle and caring toward her, yet so rough toward me...
She couldn't bear to watch anymore and said with a pout: "I don't think you two have happened yet, so it's not appropriate for you to wash her. If you trust me, let me do it."
Akaso Kaze, of course, knew the relationship between Vermouth and Mouri Ran; he nodded, said nothing, and got up to leave directly.
Akaso Kaze's trust actually surprised Vermouth a little; looking at the closed door, she couldn't help but feel dazed.
After a moment, Vermouth began to wash Mouri Ran.
While splashing water on Mouri Ran's body, she muttered: "Angels are truly lucky; they always have divine help at any time."
She said with some sadness: "Why do the gods never favor me?"
Akaso Kaze lay on the bed, silently watching Vermouth bathe Mouri Ran, dry her off, and finally carry her to the bed.
Looking at Vermouth's stumbling steps and her furrowed brows, he felt a bit sorry.
He was indeed a bit rough today.
However, it seemed that a crack had opened in the shell of the Witch of a Thousand Faces.
As long as there is a crack, it's fine.
Chisel a little every day, and it will eventually open completely. ===== CHAPTER 648 =====
