Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 28 The significance of the cross wound
Even though it's just a TV show.

But Gao Mengwen also felt a pain in her heart at this moment because she had invested too much emotion in Kenshin and Yukishiro Tomoe in the previous plot.

The blood stained Xue Daiba's snow-white clothes red.

The old assassin looked at Xue Dai Tomoe with despair, and died after saying his last words.

"Really, I don't understand women."

Yes, how could he understand why Xue Dai Tomoe would sacrifice herself to protect the man who killed her fiancé at this critical moment?

Yukishiro Tomoe fell backwards into Kenshin's arms, blood spots on her snow-white skin, and Kenshin's sad and tearful face was reflected in her dark and clear pupils.

Her hands were almost cut by the old man's dagger, but she held the dagger tightly, fearing that the old assassin would use it to hurt Kenshin.

Even though Kenshin's vision hadn't recovered yet, he knew what he had done.

On the side of his face, blood from the cut made by Kiyori dripped onto Yukishiro Tomoe.

This scene, this composition.

Perhaps it was due to lack of funds, so the snow scene and the small temple behind it all looked a bit crude.

But the sadness and depression emanating from the picture made almost every viewer who saw this scene in front of the screen feel a lump in their throat.

【What the hell! 】

[Screenwriter, are you a beast? 】

[The screenwriter is the actor who plays Kenshin. Damn, look at his expression.]

[What kind of mental illness does he have? Why is he like this? ]

[Can he still be saved? ]

[Don't even think about it, he's going to die. Kenshin used the Kasakiri move and cut off Yukishiro Tomoe's right shoulder and internal organs. He's going to die for sure.]

[The clavicle was cut from the shoulder downwards. Such a long sword wound should have severed the aorta and other parts. Let alone the background era of the story, even now, if you were cut by such a knife outside the operating room and received immediate rescue, the result would be the same word: death.]

[Wow, Yukishiro Tomoe! Why am I watching this drama? ]

[I should have considered it finished after watching the third episode. How great is it that this drama ended in the third episode? ]

[Brothers, I can't take it anymore. I can't breathe well and I feel a little short of oxygen.]

Video comments are popping up in large numbers at this moment.

Gao Mengwen had blown her nose with tissues several times.

She couldn't understand why the screenwriter did this.

Isn’t a happy ending good?
why?
But the plot moves on.

Xueshiro Tomoe fell into Kenshin's arms, looking at Kenshin's tears and the sword wound on his cheek that was bleeding.

There was no fear in her eyes, only tenderness towards Kenshin.

She raised the dagger she had taken from the old man and pointed it at Kenshin's head.

The sword wound Kenshin suffered from Kiyosato's cut was from the side of his face downwards.

At this moment, Xue Dai Ba held the dagger in his hand and cut lightly horizontally.

The knife wound from her fiancé Kiyosato formed a cross.

Gao Mengwen's heart was shaken violently

This is the title of the fourth episode.

Cross wound!
If the resentment from the wound that Kiyosato inflicted on Kenshin's face did not dissipate and the wound never healed, then Yukishiro Tomoe would use a new scar to cut off the resentment.

Tomoe Yukishiro was unable to take revenge on Kenshin.

There is no way to forget my love for Kenshin.

There was no way to convince herself to forget the revenge on her fiancé who went to Kyoto and lost his life just to marry her for fame and success.

Saving Kenshin and dying at his hands, perhaps, this was the only way for her to be worthy of two men at the same time.

It was not until this moment that a relieved smile appeared on Yukishiro Baren's face.

For the first time, she smiled at Kenshin without hiding anything.

"sorry"

"Husband."

The word "husband" completely made Gao Mengwen fall in love with him, and also brought the depressing atmosphere of the story to its highest point.

A barrage of comments passed by.

【Only at this moment can she forget her guilt towards Kiyosato and call Kenshin her husband. Tomoe Yukishiro used her death to redeem Kenshin who fell in love with her enemy. Kenshin swore to protect her, but in the end, she protected him and killed him with her own hands.】

Yukishiro Tomoe's hand slid down weakly, his life force completely dissipated, and the cross wound on Kenshin's face no longer dripped blood.

Kenshin's expression was distorted and full of grief. He wanted to cry but no sound came out. He just hugged Yukishiro Tomoe's body and cried.

But a bunch of viewers in front of the screen couldn't stand it anymore and started wailing.

【What is this! 】

[Is this necessary? Is it necessary? ]

[You could have prevented her from dying! You bastard screenwriter.]

[Sure enough, the drama written by Ikumi Shinozaki is not that simple.]

[Rurouni Kenshin is not a bad drama. It is the best and most amazing drama I have seen this year. But the screenwriter and the producer are both absolutely lousy people. They have no sympathy at all.]

[They? What do you mean by "it"?]

[That’s right, they are not human. ]

[It could have been a happy ending, why? I really can't accept it. 】

The audience was outraged.

But the source of the anger was not directed at the play itself.

Because the audience instinctively felt the cross wound that Tomoe Yukishiro gave Kenshin and Kenshin's final enlightenment.

It completely elevates the theme of the story.

From the knife wound of resentment in the first episode to the cross knife wound in this episode to resolve the resentment.

Such a plot further enhances the charm of the characters of Kenshin and Yukishiro Tomoe.

But anger cannot be dissipated in a vacuum, it can only be vented on the screenwriter.

But their anger was premature.

If the plot of Rurouni Kenshin: Memories only ended here, it would indeed be excellent and an excellent depressing work, but it would not reach the level of being a masterpiece.

The real bone-deep depression of this work begins after the death of Tomoe Yukishiro.

The story continues to move forward.

late at night.

The cabin where Kenshin and Yukishiro Tomoe lived in seclusion.

Kenshin looked sad.

Xue Daiba's body was lying in the house.

"I finally understand your pain. You must be full of resentment and sadness."

"But you protected me and allowed someone like me to survive."

Kenshin said to Yukishiro Tomoe.

"Now, I have to bear this pain and find a way to atone for my sins."

"I want to repay you for risking your life to save me, and I want to repay the sin of killing that I once committed."

Yes, that's right, following Yukishiro Tomoe is the most cowardly act.

She saved you, not to let you follow her and commit suicide for love.

If you decide to end this chaotic world, you must stay firm on your path. Tomoe Yukishiro doesn't like the executioner Kenshin, or the murderer who killed her fiancé.

But he is Kenshin, who knows that killing is painful, but endures the pain for the happiness of more people.

Gao Mengwen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

End of story.

The great traitor Iizuka was exposed and assassinated by another expert assassin hired by the organization behind Kenshin.

"Kui", the leader of the power behind Kenshin, approaches Kenshin.

"I have eliminated the traitor Iizuka. When I left Kyoto, I asked Miss Tomoe to be your scabbard, but now, I'm sorry, Himura."

"Mr. Katsura, I will continue to hold the sword. I will keep holding the sword until this chaotic world ends. But when this chaotic world ends, I will never kill anyone again, never again." Kenshin looked at the body of Yukishiro Tomoe.

After Katsura left, Kenshin made up his mind.

BGM sounds.

"Ba, I'm leaving."

Kenshin gripped the sword in his hand.

A huge fire burned the wooden house and Xue Daiba's body to ashes.

In Memories A Boy Meets The Man, this divine soundtrack, sounded again.

In line with the atmosphere of the plot at this time, Gao Mengwen felt her scalp tingling and got goose bumps.

The following scene is the most exciting fighting scene in the four volumes of Rurouni Kenshin.

The constantly interspersed images show Kenshin's continuous fighting in the following time.

A Kenshin who found a reason to fight and someone he loved.

His eyes were no longer confused.

He returned to Kyoto and wielded the sword to overthrow the old corrupt ruling class.

No matter how many people you face, you will never retreat.

After that day, Kyoto had a new legend.

A man with a cross wound on his face became the spokesperson for the god of death in Kyoto.

But now, Kenshin no longer does assassinations, no longer hides his appearance, and no longer hides his identity.
A head-on swordsmanship duel with Okita, Saito, and others from the Shinsengumi.

Gao Mengwen didn't dare to blink.

This is truly the highest level of fighting scenes in the entire work so far.

The clash of swords.

The collision of murderous intent.

And the sound of the BGM playing to the climax

Day after day, year after year.
The struggle never stops, the killing never ceases.

Kenshin fell asleep late at night wrapped in the scarf that Tomoe Yukishiro left for him.

Kenshin was no longer uneasy and confused.

But the following scene became the most shocking scene in Gao Mengwen's mind.

The night wind blew Kenshin's scarf, and a woman's vague shadow emerged.

Wearing snow-white clothes and with a cold face, she gently embraced the sleeping Kenshin with her hands from behind.

Gao Mengwen couldn't stop crying again.

this.
What is this? It's so foul.

Gao Mengwen understood the meaning of the plot.

This figure is certainly not the ghost of Tomoe Yukishiro who is still beside Kenshin.

Rather, it means that although Tomoe is dead, the time she spent with Kenshin will dispel Kenshin's fear and anxiety.
Although she is dead, she still guards Kenshin.

At this point, it has become an art.

Gao Mengwen didn't know how to describe this scene.

Indescribably heavy and depressing.

But I have never regretted watching this drama.

In my mind, I am arranging the screenwriter’s ruthlessness.

But I applaud the screenwriter for creating such a touching story.

At the end of the film, there is still war and fighting.

The moment when the ending song ended.

The corrupt forces in Kyoto have disappeared.

New rulers came to power.

The chaotic world ended, and Kenshin watched this scene, the coldness in his eyes quietly melted away.

Finally, the camera returned to the hill where Kenshin buried the bandits.

Hiko Seijuro brought wine to pay tribute to these wandering ghosts, and under the blood-red sunset, a new grave appeared in this cemetery.

A scarf fluttering in the wind surrounds the cross tombstone
The scarf that protected Kenshin through countless nights of killing.

Hiko Seijuro closed his eyes, realizing that his apprentice had gone through similar experiences as he had.

The memorable lines when the master accepted Kenshin as his apprentice sounded.

【What's your name, kid? 】

【Heart too. 】

[You are too weak. From now on, you will be called Kenshin! ]

On the screen, the words [Rurouni Kenshin.End] appeared.

Gao Mengwen's breathing was trembling.

She wanted to curse, but couldn't.

The sadness is about to overflow from my heart.

She was still reeling from the ending of the drama.

Even though it was a drama that made her cry several times during the process.

But at the moment of the ending, he became a god in her heart without hesitation for a second.

Soon, she clicked on the comment section of the playback page.

I really can't stand it, this drama is a god drama.

The screenwriter is also amazing.

This kind of god-man should be cursed.

Otherwise, he will definitely not change his bad habits next time he writes a script.

Less than two hours later.

The plot of the fourth episode of Rurouni Kenshin had several hot searches and was scolded by fans and ranked in the top ten hot searches on Sakura.com.

And wait until midnight
Among the top five hot searches, three were about criticizing Rurouni Kenshin screenwriter Su Yan.

One is the topic of criticizing producer Ikumi Shinozaki.
