Chapter 4 Because Suzaku is my brother 5
The wind blew across the dry front yard of the Knight Hall of the Black Knight Branch. Winter had completely arrived, and the roadside was covered with withered yellow leaves. I knew this was just an ordinary visit from college students to college students, but why did the scene of a gangster boss meeting another gangster in a TV series keep popping up in my mind?
"Is it necessary? I have classes this morning." Osto's high-pitched voice kept echoing in the cold wind. I turned my head and saw him playing with his mobile phone impatiently. He was wearing a very handsome black down jacket over his crimson school uniform.
Qiu Qianyuan on the other side smiled slightly, and seemed to be uncomfortable and wrapped her scarf tightly. Suzaku, who was standing between them, looked up at the steps in front of us and walked in without saying a word.
I don't know why Suzaku wants to see Xisai, but I've never been so nervous. Just as we walked to the door, the shiny black oak door of the Black Knights' Court slowly opened, and a tall and handsome man in a black school uniform walked out.
An evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The delicate curve could be compared to all the cunning villains in the comics. His thin pink lips slowly opened and a low voice came out from the depths of his throat: "Welcome, the Three Red Knights."
After saying that, as if waiting for a more exciting moment, he leaned against the door and quietly observed the reactions of Suzaku and the others. My heart beat faster, wondering what Suzaku would say. The scene in front of me was too similar to the meeting between the gangster bosses on TV!
"Oh." Zhuque was stunned for a moment, then walked in, and only greeted the man calmly when passing by, "Ah Zhong."
Ah Zhong? Sakura Ranzhong's nickname? Did he just say hello and leave it at that? Wasn't there a line of "Let's fight today"?
Then...
"Ah Chong."
"Ah Chong."
Qiu Qianyuan and Osto followed suit, shouting Ying Luanzhong's name and walked into the scary-looking door. I frowned and looked at Ying Luanzhong. He seemed to be stunned by Suzaku's undramatic reaction. When he came to his senses, he found that I was still outside the door and said angrily, "I've never seen anyone messing up a place with a girlfriend!"
Ruining the place? Girlfriend?
Just as I was wondering, I heard Zhuque, who had already walked into the room, yell, "That gorilla is not my girlfriend. How many times do I have to tell you before you believe me?"
"But the news was clearly released by Qiu Qianyuan!" The sheep voice sounded, I walked in, and saw Xisai coming down from upstairs with a smile.
At the railing on the second floor, a very tall man with a pair of beautiful blue eyes was quietly watching downstairs. I think he was Prince Merlin, the second knight of the Black Knight branch. And by the fountain in the hall, stood the only Black Knight I liked, Qing Nana.
When she saw me, she smiled brightly, showing her eight teeth. At this time, Xisai came down and pointed to the sofa on one side of the living room and asked Zhuque to sit down. His shoulders were very relaxed, his soft curly hair matched his natural smile, and his whole body seemed to be illuminated by warm light, exuding a calm and powerful aura.
This person is the Royal Knight, I inexplicably thought of this sentence in my mind, and then I heard someone calling my name. Turning around, I saw Suzaku sitting on the white sofa in the west of the hall, and his deep red school uniform was very eye-catching against the creamy white sofa.
"Tomorrow, come to me."
“Hehe…” Xisai seemed to smile, and sat down on the sofa on the east side with Ying Ranzhong, and called to Nana in front of me, “Nana, come to me.”
I was a little confused. The current situation was... I walked to Suzaku with disorderly steps. His eyes were always focused on Xisai. He didn't look at me at all. He just pointed to the seat next to him, as if asking me to sit next to him.
Qiu Qianyuan sat on the other side of him. Although Osto was standing, he was standing opposite to Xisai and the others. The Red Knight just stared at the Black Knight, and no one spoke first.
"Suzaku, you have to understand that this is Yun Que's own choice." Xisai finally spoke, staring at Suzaku with his deep black eyes.
"I understand this is his choice." After a while, Suzaku spoke up. He raised his head, his attitude was more calm and majestic than anything I had ever seen.
"Then I don't understand why you're here today." Xisai frowned, and Merlin on the second floor walked up the stairs. Osto looked up at Merlin who was about to come down from upstairs, with a mocking smile on his face, and whispered: "How boring."
Qiu Qianyuan glanced at him, but Zhuque kept staring at Xise, as if there was no one else here.
"X, I don't care why you want to be a Royal Knight, or what you want to do, and I won't interfere with you. But I hope you understand..." Suzaku paused, took a deep breath, and spoke again. At this moment, Merlin walked down the stairs slowly.
Osto looked at Merlin walking down the stairs, and suddenly sneered, saying in a sharp tone: "What are you doing? It's like a TV show, even the invisible Merlin showed up. Isn't it just a queen game? Whoever wants to be the queen can be the queen. Anyway, everyone sitting here, including civilians like Mingri and Nana, won't care about the 5 million central yuan chips, right? Even if you lose, someone will pay for it. Is it worth it to be serious about such a boring game? I said this academy is the most annoying..."
"Osto." Qiu Qianyuan called his name in a low voice. Osto glanced at him and seemed not to stop talking. He said, "It's like that. Who's decent as a princess knight? You are all bored to death. You are risking your lives for a game. Are you still children? Boring." As he walked towards the door.
"Osto." Qiu Qianyuan called his name again, and at this moment, the man next to me suddenly stood up.
The golden sword was suddenly pulled out of the scabbard, piercing the air, flashing a golden light, and stabbed straight into the black door in front of Osto. Osto turned around in surprise, with bloodstains on his cheek, and the golden sword was still shaking back and forth on the door.
I stared at Suzaku with my mouth wide open, unable to believe that he had done this.
"I don't care who wins or loses this game! I, Takamiya Suzaku, don't need the Queen's Company to prove my ability. But Xisai--" He kept looking at Xisai and didn't even look at anyone else, including me, including Ostu, whose face was already covered in blood.
"If the Red Knights branch falls into division because of you, I swear, I will immediately become your enemy! And..." His voice was loud and his handsome face had a majesty that could not be ignored, "I will kill you!"
"do you understand?"
"I understand." Xisai looked at Zhuque, his eyes swept across Qiu Qianyuan and Osto, and finally landed on me. He smiled and asked, "You came here so solemnly, bringing two knights from the Red Knights Branch with you, is it just to say this to me?"
"Yes." Zhuque said lightly, looking at Qiu Qianyuan, at Ostu, and at me.
"Because I am here today not on behalf of myself, but on behalf of the entire Red Knights branch. I am here to tell you not to try to challenge the authority of the Red Knights branch."
"You represent the entire Red Knights branch?" Xisai stood up, and beside him were the three great knights . A natural momentum emanated from their close-knit posture.
"Yes." As Zhuque spoke, Qiu Qianyuan came over. Ostu stroked his bleeding face, still immersed in incredible shock. In the silent confrontation, everyone's eyes seemed to be focused on Ostu.
I looked at the rebellious red-haired boy, wondering what he would do. I heard that every time there was a monthly meeting of the Knights, he would take the initiative to stand on the side of the White Knights. The entire Red Knights branch knew that he hated Suzaku, TK, and the Queen's Game. What would he do?
"Osto, you can hate me and dislike me." Suzaku suddenly spoke, his voice full of oppression, "but you are the Grand Knight of the Red Knight Branch."
Osto looked at him for a long time without saying anything. Complex emotions, anger, shock, and resentment mixed together, making his fiery red hair tremble as if it was about to burn.
One second, two seconds... Suddenly, he walked over, stood beside Suzaku, and turned to look at Xise with him.
"X, you'd better not interfere in the affairs of the Red Knight branch. Otherwise, I guarantee that you will die an ugly death!"
The man next to me said to Xisai in a tone that could not be refuted, "Because the Red Knight Branch is not the White Knight Branch. I am not a popular good guy like Fujiwara Ying. I will do whatever it takes at the critical moment!"
"I already knew that you, Lord Suzaku, were not like him." At this time, Xisai actually laughed. His smile was so casual and confident. Didn't he know the current situation?
"Why?" Suzaku asked before leaving.
"Because you are the greatest knight!" Xisai gave his answer. Zhuque stared at him, smiled, and had no intention of speaking again.
After we looked at each other for the last time, I felt someone holding my hand. It was only then that I realized that I was so nervous that I was sweating all over and I didn't know how to walk.
The man took my hand and led me out of the Knight Hall of the Black Knight Branch step by step.
"Don't get me wrong, I just don't want outsiders to laugh at us." As he walked out of the Knight Hall of the Black Knights, Osto covered his face and said, "You are the person I hate most in this world ."
"Don't get me wrong, I really hurt your face on purpose." Suzaku said coldly, looking down at me and holding my hand tightly.
Suddenly, a young man in a red uniform ran towards us on the road ahead. I recognized him as a member of the Suzaku Guard.
"Lord Suzaku! Princess...Princess..."
Suddenly, my heart dropped, and a bad premonition hit me like a tsunami. Zhuque suddenly let go of my hand and looked at me fiercely, obviously having guessed something.
Yes, I told the princess. Although she once told me not to do that, as long as Yaoyao said to me, "Tomorrow, I only have you, you must help me!" my psychological defenses completely collapsed.
Because Yaoyao is my only friend, and she is the only reason that gives a commoner like me, who is looked down upon by others, the courage to stay in TK Academy!
