Just like that, when Shizuku returned to the office, they had a new member by their side.

"Finally back."

Looking at the familiar office in front of her, Shizuku stretched and couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm starving, let's go eat first."

"Sister Shizuku, did you forget? Didn't the ramen shop downstairs move away?"

"Oh, that's right."

After hearing Hinasaki Shinkuro's reminder, Shizuku came back to her senses. The first floor of this office is a store, and the owner is a man in his sixties who is responsible for running a ramen shop here. In fact, he is the only store in this building that has not moved out, and he has been here since Shizuku took over. He is a very kind and enthusiastic boss, and the ramen he makes tastes quite good.

Originally, because this place was haunted, the owner would close before sunset. However, after Shizuku exorcised the evil spirits that haunted this place, he would stay open until the early morning hours. So Shizuku also developed the habit of running down to eat ramen whenever she was hungry.

Unfortunately, people eventually grow old and die. As he gets older, the old store manager seems to be a little overwhelmed. He had previously approached Shizuku and told him that he would close the store after the contract expires this year and return to his hometown to take care of his grandchildren and spend the rest of his life there. Shizuku felt that this was a bit of a pity, but she could only nod in agreement.

"Speaking of which, they are renovating that place now, what's new?"

Looking at the store on the first floor that was being renovated, Shizuku couldn't help but frown, then looked at Hinasaki Shinku and asked. She had always let Hinasaki Shinku handle these chores and rent issues.

"It's a coffee shop. The owner is a very kind old man. I heard that he is very confident in his blended coffee."

“I see…”

Compared to Hinasaki Shinku who was full of interest, Shizuku seemed a little powerless.

"Coffee shops can't be open until the early hours, so where can I find a midnight snack?"

“Ahahahaha…”

Hearing Shizuku's complaints, Hinasaki Shinku couldn't help but let out an awkward smile. After spending so much time with Shizuku, she had already discovered that although Shizuku was a girl, her taste for food was closer to that of men. For example, when it came to ramen, girls of her age wouldn't eat it alone, but Shizuku didn't care about that at all, and would just go downstairs when she ran out of food.

"It's just that this place is too remote. Otherwise, it would be nice to open a small stall selling oden or takoyaki... Oh, what should I do now? It's hard to find even takeout these days. If I had known this, I should have gone to the nearby KFC..."

Just as Shizuku was muttering to herself, Shizuku raised his hand silently.

"If you don't mind, let me cook..."

"Hey? Little sister, can you cook?"

Hearing Shizumi Hisahi's self-recommendation, Hinasaki Shinku looked at her in surprise. On the way back, Shizuku had already introduced Shizumi Hisahi's true identity to Hinasaki Shinku. Because she had seen the vampire named Kagano Kirie before, Hinasaki Shinku quickly accepted Shizumi Hisahi's existence.

However, since Shizuku's name is pronounced the same as Shizuku's, in order to avoid calling the wrong person, Hinasaki Shinku calls Shizuku "little sister" - although considering Qiu's age, she is probably only two or three hundred years old at the least.

In response to Hinasaki Shinku's question, Shizumi Hisahisa answered with practical actions.

“So delicious!!”

While eating the food in her mouth, Hinasaki Shinku suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"Little sister, you are really good at cooking!"

"Hmm...it tastes really good."

Shizuku took a bite and nodded. After all, Fang Zheng had traveled through so many worlds, and although he had never traveled through a world of gourmet food, he still had a taste for gourmet food. At least for now, the taste of Shizuku's cooking could be ranked in the top five among the dishes Fang Zheng had eaten in the world he traveled through.

In this regard, her skills are indeed good.

"Not only cooking, but cleaning and housework, you can leave everything to me..."

"Isn't this a bit too much trouble for you?"

"What's wrong with that? Although this child looks just a little kid, she is quite talented. Besides, you already have a lot of responsibilities, so it's not bad to have someone to share the burden with you."

Shizuku didn't care. As she said, Hinasaki Shinku is still a high school student. In addition to studying, she is also responsible for handling the office's sundries and various household chores in daily life. It is indeed quite busy. With Shizumi Hisayuu by her side, Hinasaki Shinku won't be so busy.

"It doesn't matter. After all, I'm not like some bat that eats free food. This is what I should say..."

As he spoke, Shizumi Hisahi's expressionless face turned around and glanced at Kagami no Kirie who was sitting next to him drinking black tea. Hearing Shizumi Hisahi's words, the latter snorted coldly and turned his head away.

As mentioned before, there are four types of "demons, ghosts and monsters" in this world. Although demons are generally at the top of the pyramid of non-humans, it does not mean that monsters are really afraid of demons. Vampires like Kagano Kirie are members of the underworld organizations among non-humans. Ordinary monsters will definitely kneel down when they see them.

However, Jingshuijiu is a Qionglong. Although he is not yet an adult, he is still a dragon. In other words, he is equivalent to a special forces soldier among monsters. So when the gang members and the special forces fight each other, it is just a draw and no one is afraid of the other.

"After all, before being killed by the Demon Slayer, the ability to survive is more important than fighting..."

"Demon Slayer? What is that?"

Hearing the unfamiliar term, Hinasaki Crimson blinked in confusion, while Shizuku shrugged.

"I heard that there were twelve families that specialized in killing demons and monsters... But that was hundreds of years ago. At least now, I haven't heard of the existence of these guys. I'm afraid they have declined."

This is not surprising. Although the Demon Slayer is responsible for killing demons, the threat posed by humans is much greater than that of demons. In addition, this happened hundreds of years ago, and Japan was frequently in war at the time. It is hard to say whether a family like this can survive until now.

"Come to think of it, when I came to Japan, I also heard the monsters here tell me to be careful of those guys."

The Fire Mist Branch also came in at this time.

"But I haven't seen those people in all these years. I guess they are all dead."

As for the topic of demon slayers, everyone had heard of it, after all, it had nothing to do with them, and Shizuku didn't care about these guys. If someone was really stupid enough to come and cause trouble for the people around her, she would kill them without mercy - but then again, Shizumi Hisa's housekeeping skills were really amazing, no wonder she was so confident and took the initiative to recommend herself. If this flower pavilion is really going to be built on Longyue Island in the future, then Shizumi Hisa is really a good candidate.

After this, Shizuku had a relatively leisurely period of time.

I have to admit that Jing Shuijiu has really maxed out his housekeeping skills. Every morning when I get up, there is hot and delicious food on the table, the room is cleaned, and the clothes are neatly washed and folded. It can be said that it is a paradise - well, this is really a good assistant.

But not everyone likes this.

For example, the Mist Branch of the Bonfire.

Youkai and monsters are inherently incompatible, not to mention that Kagami no Mist basically sits there all day long and does nothing, so Jing Shuijiu would occasionally make some sarcastic remarks to her, which made Kagami no Mist very angry.

"Isn't it just cooking and washing clothes? This kind of thing is something that only lowly people can do. I am a noble blood aristocrat, how could I do such a thing? Of course, if necessary, I can wake up a few zombies..."

"That thing is too disgusting, don't bring it out to cause trouble."

As a result, before Kagami no Mist could finish her words, Shizuku stabbed her in the kidneys from behind, causing her to bleed and be cut.

After hearing Shizuku's answer, Shizuku narrowed his snake-like bright red eyes and stared at Kagami no Mist Branch.

"In this case, aren't you just a freeloader? Or is your combat ability the only thing we can expect? But in front of onee-sama, there is no room for you to show your abilities..."

By the way, after joining the agency, Shizuku called Shizuku "onee-sama"... Well, this name is also very good, so Shizuku agreed.

"That's what I meant. There are things that only Kirie can do, right?"

At this time, Shizuku turned over the newspaper with a smile, and then gave an assist. Hearing Shizuku's answer, Shizuku tilted his head in confusion, while Kagami no Kirie was stunned for a moment, and then his face suddenly turned red as if he remembered something.

"Really...?"

"Well, that was true before, but recently..."

Having said that, Shizuku shook her head and sighed. Seeing this, Kagami no Kirei's expression changed slightly. Then she thought for a moment, snorted coldly, and turned away.

What what what what!!

Returning to his room, Kagami Kirei sat down on the bed in a rage.

Ever since she complained at the beach that day, Shizuku hadn't touched her at all. Although her daily behavior was no different from before, she no longer touched her in private. This made Kagami no Kirie feel quite annoyed. Of course, she also reflected that she had spoken a little too harshly at that time, but in fact, she just wanted Shizuku to punish her... Really, it's been so many times, and she still doesn't understand any sense of humor?

"hateful!"

Thinking of this, Kagami Mist Branch slammed his fist on the table.

Do you want me to lower myself to beg her? Ask her to do that? What a joke! I don't want to die!

If Shizuku could hear the inner roar of Kaname no Kirie at this moment, she would definitely complain, "You're already dead."

"……Um?"

At this moment, Kagami Mist Branch suddenly seemed to have thought of something and his eyes lit up.

Oh, there is such a way...
