Chapter 186 Mu is broken
The fact that most of the cucumber seedlings had died could not be hidden from Mu after all.
"Mu... I'm sorry I couldn't take good care of them."
Su Shi guiltily held Mu's trembling hand and touched Mu's hair, which was green but a little dry like a surviving cucumber seedling, hoping that Mu could be more open-minded.
"Mu-san! I'm sorry!"
Should we say that Mashiro is indeed a good man, he simply knelt down and apologized - everyone has their own responsibilities, I, Mashiro Kurata, will take all the responsibility for the mistakes I made!
Of course, she had to bear the responsibility alone, because Yasa Ruyu was watching her hungrily from behind. If Mashiro dared to express even the slightest bit of dissatisfaction or shirking of responsibility through words, the Tsukinomori Student Council President's visible hand would soon take action.
"...It's okay, Suyo and Mashiro-senpai didn't mean it."
Mu was definitely forcing a smile, right? His eyes were dark. Wakaba Mu-san—Mashiro felt that she was definitely dead. She was about to be taken by Ruwei to a place where no detectors could detect her—the ultimate humiliation!
"Mutsu-san," it was finally Kurata Mashiro's designated "big mother"—Ryu Yasagi—who intervened, bowing apologetically to the silent little Mutou. "I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'll have Mashiro plant another batch of cucumbers to make amends."
“It’s okay…it’s okay.”
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it's okay, right? Mu's little hands are clenched white. Hey - Su Shi turned around and couldn't help but look towards the main entrance.
Today is the first rehearsal of An and Tendo-senpai's new play. The leaders of Hanaoka and Hanasakigawa will be there - which means the doctor will probably be there too, right?
I hope the doctor can...can help me.
……
In the previous article, we have mentioned Su Shi’s inner drama. Today is the first rehearsal of the new play starring An and Tiantong.
"The Katana No Longer Needed"—When Kashiwa Miki first read the script, he was so embarrassed he wanted to run away. Who came up with that name!?
Although the name is a bit awkward, there is still plenty of time to change it, and the plot is extremely brilliant... right?
The story takes place in the 1920s. It tells the story of a young military officer who abandoned his wife for his career and was killed by the abandoned blacksmith woman with a rusty family heirloom sword that she threw into the sea. The purpose of the story is to illustrate... well, the purpose of the story is to illustrate something that Kashiwa Miki doesn't know.
The main reason is that as a Chinese, Kashiwa Sanhui really can't understand the train of thought of Japanese screenwriters, and he can't understand why those elderly teachers shed tears after reading the script, and they can't say a word when asked to do so.
An and Tendo: The katana is used to cut people.
Middle-aged and elderly audiences: \(tot) /\(tot) /
In this case, the general can actually be a screenwriter.
But this has nothing to do with Kashiwa Sanki. Subaru only asks him to be a well-behaved audience member in the audience. At most, he just needs to act according to Subaru's expression.
By the way, the main characters of this musical are: An and Tendo play the scumbag officer Ichiro Nemoto, Komotsugu plays the ex-lover, a blacksmith girl disguised as a man, and Subaru plays his new love - a nameless Western female merchant.
From the time he got the script to the rehearsal day, Mu only read the script for three days, but he was able to basically portray the effect that An and Tiantong wanted, and his thoughts and feelings were basically achieved.
Fucking Mu! You're a fucking genius!
Kashiwa Miki and a group of famous people who were invited to watch the ceremony had been sitting under the stage of the Moon Forest Auditorium for a long time. They had basically gotten to know all the audience around them through greetings.
The woman in the front dressed in animal protection clothes is the principal of Tsuki no Mori, the man in the 37% suit on the left is the new councilor of the Ikebukuro district, the one on the right is Su Shi's mother, a strong career woman in the financial world, and the one behind is Kawahara Momoka, a brand new social scrap.
Momoka was fiddling with the copper-inlaid sword-staff in her hand out of boredom and was almost falling asleep - it was a pity that Miss Momoka would not be able to see Subaru's appearance in exaggerated heavy makeup.
The rehearsal has reached the first climax of the entire musical - Ichiro Nemoto, who abandoned the blacksmith girl and mocked her jokingly as she jumped off the dock and sank into the bay to salvage the family heirloom sword. He left with a shiny American pistol on his waist and his arm around the Western merchant.
The blacksmith girl, wearing a headscarf and soaking wet (actually she wasn't soaking wet, it was just a rehearsal so they wouldn't use props), pleaded with Nemoto Ichiro, who left with a cold face and determination, "You—my love, even if you don't love me anymore, why don't you keep this beautiful sword?"
Xiao Mutou was so heartbroken that it didn't seem like he was acting.
An Hetiantong, who is over seventy years old and still has explosive acting skills, straightened her back and sneered cruelly: "You, like this broken sword, you have been stained by sea water. The salt in the water will corrode a conservative woman like you - a new era has arrived!"
The off-stage chorus sang along: "A new era has come! A new era has come!"
The shamisen gradually became more intense, until it exploded and cracked - it really exploded, and a good shamisen outside the venue was broken alive, and immediately it was replaced by passionate electric guitar and jazz drums.
Subaru showed his true colors, twisting his charming body wrapped in purple silk and pacing to Mu, who was kneeling helplessly on the ground, and pretending to help Mu up.
"You are a woman, you cannot disobey the wishes of a man who stands tall and proud—isn't that what was said in the old days? Just obey and rot away with this no longer needed sword, hahahaha—"
"Rotten together! Rotten together!"
Hmm, that's quite interesting - Kashiwa Sanhui stopped fiddling with his cane, straightened up and began to look carefully.
However, a feeling of suffocation like being entangled by a python suddenly swept over Baihe Sanhui, and the inexplicable chill made Baihe Sanhui break out in cold sweat in an instant.
Why...does it feel like something bad is going to happen?
"concubine……"
In an instant, the originally lively audience fell silent—there was a mistake.
Mu made a mistake.
Mu should have said "I" to express that the Japanese Bushido spirit and dignity will last forever.
But Mu said "concubine" - An and Tiantong, who had already left the stage half a foot, frowned almost as soon as Mu finished speaking.
It's collapsed, and there's no need to continue the show - An and Tiantong's subsequent behavior after Mu said the wrong line further strengthened this thought.
Mu seemed to be stared at by countless disappointed eyes - but only for a moment, and immediately no one paid any attention to him anymore.
Cucumber, father, doctor, Chuhua, guitar, Xiangzi, crychic... they are no longer needed. Mu is no longer needed...
An unnecessary samurai sword...
Pressure pressure pressure pressure...
I made a mistake, I made a mistake, I made a mistake, I made a mistake...
Almost in an instant, the only light left in Mu's eyes went out, and his body lost its power like a puppet with its strings cut, completely letting gravity control him - completely like a puppet with its strings cut.
Holding the samurai sword that had been soaked in concentrated salt water and was now so rusty that it could not be pulled out, Kashiwa Sanhui seemed to see that Mu was holding another self in his hand.
Mu was broken and rusted - just like the unwanted samurai sword.
