Chapter 143: First Come First Served
As expected, Suzuki Sonoko suffered from insomnia.
Aizen Sosuke's Zanpakutō should not be called Kyoka Suigetsu, it should be called Damocles.
It was now hanging above her head, and she didn't know when it would fall down.
——If Aizen wants to usurp the divine power and take care of the god like a child, he must rely on certain means of guidance, so that the god will be constantly replaced and will be completely unable to take charge.
In other words, no matter where the missing boss is now, he always comes back to find Sonoko.
In the boss's heart, he was probably eagerly hoping that the soon-to-be-adult Suzuki Sonoko would quickly die and then be reborn as a confused child.
——Her hobby is similar to that of Ma Cang Ye Wang. If she turns into a blank sheet of paper, she can become the other person's dream lover.
Yuanzi turned over in the pillow and couldn't stop sighing at the bright moon.
This feeling is so subtle.
It's not like she hasn't made contracts with others before, for example, Rokudo Mukuro is a representative example.
But the connection she could feel from Rokudo Mukuro was actually quite limited.
After all, Asari Ugetsu was a self-taught Onmyoji. The skills that Sonoko inherited from him had accidentally confused the parties in the contract. Moreover, when she was desperate to break the curse, she couldn't even find any matching information in the orthodox traditions of the major Onmyoji families.
They say Rokudo Mukuro was taken in as a Shikigami, but there are a long list of side effects.
For example, at the beginning, the two people had an extremely strong telepathic connection, so strong that they could almost see each other's past and present lives in their dreams.
Another example is poor timeliness.
As time passed, the effectiveness of the contract dropped almost drastically. In fact, Suzuki Sonoko's subsequent messy dreams could only be regarded as her own thoughts during the day causing her to dream at night, scaring herself.
But this one about the artifact is very profound.
Suzuki Sonoko is suffering from insomnia right now, partly because of worry.
The remaining half is thought.
Missing you.
Where did Lan Yue go?
Why isn't he with me?
Will he get hurt?
Did he finish his meal?
After thinking about it three or five times like a wheel, Yuanzi gave up struggling.
She now truly felt that her family's guardian deity and guardian artifacts were magical—with such a deep bond, how could Yato actually have the heart to beat up Kurosaki Ichigo?
Ichigo Kurosaki actually dared to fight back!
What cold-blooded and heartless people they are!
She felt that even the blood connection between father and son couldn't be so clear and mysterious, okay?!
From that day on, Yuanzi suffered from insomnia for a week.
She hoped every day that Aizen Sosuke would quickly call for her to be caught, but once this thought came to her mind, it was inevitably accompanied by her unconcealable worry about him.
Then she woke up with fright.
——If you don’t worry about him, you will have to worry about yourself in the future!
So his thoughts returned to the starting point, and he worried about why Jinglingting hadn't caught him yet.
But it's useless to catch him back. The contract cannot be terminated. This matter is a dead end. After all this entanglement, Sonoko even doesn't want Kurosaki Ichigo to come back.
His return proves that the matter of Soul Society has come to an end.
Regardless of whether the result of this incident was "caught" or "not caught", she actually didn't want to accept it.
Do you think this is a disease?
Suzuki Sonoko felt that she might be driven crazy before long.
Objectively, she knew that everything was caused by the contract, but subjectively, she couldn't control the growth of that feeling of closeness. Occasionally, she would sit on the terrace and stare blankly for a long time. Only when the butler called her back to her senses did she realize that she was worried about Aizen...
Sometimes her rationality would come back, for example, she would use the analogy of the past:
When she first formed the Six Paths Corpse, she wished that an Onmyoji would come and take him in. In contrast, look at Aizen——
——No, once the name Aizen appears in his mind, worry will inevitably accompany him.
Then, after a brief period of being online, my sanity immediately fell into a vicious circle again.
At noon, the sun was scorching, and dazzling golden light covered the balcony on the east side of the third floor of the Suzuki residence.
The old housekeeper stood in the courtyard, gazing at the cold shadow in the corner of the balcony and the source of the shadow, Suzuki Sonoko. He thought that their young lady's delusion had just started and it wasn't very serious. Could she be depressed again?
So, at dinner that day, the butler finally overstepped his bounds. While Yuanzi was eating in a state of despair, he subtly suggested that he had hired a few psychologists: "If you're free lately, why don't you pick one that you like and have them come and talk to you?"
Yuanzi gave him a sad smile in response.
Then he quickly fell ill.
Yes, it is just that fragile.
The specific manifestations of her illness are somewhat different from those of ordinary humans. Her mental state fluctuates greatly, and she often wakes up at night with a start, then wonders to the moon: It was fine when she was imprisoned by the gods five hundred years ago, but now that she has clearly returned home, why can't she find anyone to sleep with her?
Where are the Night Fighters!
——Ye Dou went to look for the fox demon diligently.
Because they easily found out that the bad luck in the back mountain came from the fox demon Bawei, and also got the accurate information that Bawei had become the messenger of the human god Nanao, it seemed that everything was fine.
But Yato always felt uneasy.
If humans were in this situation, it could be said that they were overthinking it, but if gods were in this situation, something must be happening.
Yato's approach is also very simple.
Just behead it.
For thousands of years, Yato, the god of misfortune, has been able to speak without saying a word:
As long as his people die, they will naturally shut up. Whoever he wants to protect, as long as he kills all the dangerous elements, there will be no danger of safety.
So after accompanying Sonoko to see the doctor, Yato quickly found out where Tomoe was, and after roughly scouting the area, he immediately knocked on Nanami's door.
Mikage Shrine is located halfway up the mountain. There are not many people nearby and the area occupied by the building is very small. It is a standard land god shrine, not like a garden.
——When shrines are built in the garden, they are all built like theme parks. The Higurashi Shrine is now a large construction site. It is said that they will dig up half of the hill and fill a new lake in the same place.
Anyway, regardless of whether it is built or not, the area it occupies looks very Suzuki at first glance.
Suddenly thinking of Sonoko, Yato subconsciously clenched the front of his clothes. After suppressing the smile on his lips, his eyes became more determined.
That morning, he successfully intercepted Nanao Yuukami, who had gotten up early to go to school, at the mountain gate exit. A quarter of an hour later, he successfully woke up the target who was having a bad sleep.
The fox demon Bawei.
The fox demon, who hadn't gotten enough sleep, used fox fire instead of saying good morning, and the former Huojinshen, who had come to cause trouble, responded with a mid-air slash.
In short, the fight was successful.
Halfway through the fight, Yato felt a little overwhelmed, thinking that this fox demon was indeed worthy of its reputation. Without a magic weapon at hand, it might take some time to kill him!
Really...
With a few crisp crackling sounds, the sharp knife light swept across the front yard, and the broken grass and trees fell to the ground.
Yadou threw away the broken dagger in anger: It's true, when Heiyin was needed, Heiyin always worked diligently for Jinglingting, but he, the authentic God Lord father, was left defenseless!
What are the fox's nails made of? They are so hard!
On the other side, Nanase, who was squatting on the roof with Ruixi to avoid the disaster, was no longer in the mood to care about whether she could go to school or be late. Seeing that half of the house had been demolished, she could only shout at them to stop fighting.
Too bad no one listened.
Yato took the time to glance at her, and considering that they were all gods, he reluctantly replied to her, "No."
"This matter cannot be discussed. I will definitely protect the garden!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cold-colored fox fire ball that had expanded into a vortex not far away suddenly stopped, and the flames that seemed to have life slowly spread out, revealing a white-haired fox with ferocious features in the center.
"Garden...zi?"
The fox's canine teeth pressed against his lower lip, and he spoke word by word as if he was chewing it to pieces: "Suzuki, Sonoko?"
Yato: ...
Yato: "You even asked for Sonoko's name in advance... You really have an agenda!"
At this time, the fox fire had slowly calmed down. Bawei stood there with a cold expression, his brows raised in a cold color. After hearing this, he even smiled with interest.
"What do you mean I already had an intention?"
His voice was clear and should have been very pleasant to the ear when he was smiling, but at this moment, although he was smiling, the words he said made people feel a pang of pain in the back of their teeth for no reason.
"She obviously owes me."
The white-haired fox snorted lazily, "She's owed me for over four hundred years. How come it's my fault?"
Four hundred years?
"Come to think of it, I've seen her now." Bawei scratched the corner of his mouth with his sharp nails. "Why, from what you said, are you trying to use the first come first served argument?"
"Because you were there first, you have to control whoever comes near her later?"
Yato hadn't thought of such a thing originally.
"But now that you mention it," the round-eyed Huo Jinshen touched his chin thoughtfully, "I think this is a good idea..."
After saying that, he clapped his hands, pulled out a second dagger from his waist, and quietly twisted it into a flower shape, pointing the tip of the knife at the fox demon resting under the tree.
"I already exist in Yuanzi's life. If you come later, please disappear!"
Bave: ...
Bave: What's wrong with this thing?
He felt like he was about to laugh out loud: "You only listen to what you want to hear? I mentioned the part about four hundred years ago, and you just skipped it, right?"
——If we really go by time, he was cheated by that woman more than four hundred years ago, so no matter how you look at it, he was here first.
The fight between the god and the demon was already quite meaningless, and now they were talking at cross purposes, alternating between fighting and arguing. The area in front of the fight was not only chaotic but also very noisy.
On the other side, Nana Momozono was leaning against Ruixi, with only a small place for her to stand on the eaves. She listened to this long string of words in a confused manner and could not understand what they were arguing about.
Just like she didn't understand what these two were fighting about at first.
But the parties involved were still arguing seriously.
At least Yato was serious.
Sonoko herself didn't remember this memory of Tomoe, so naturally she never told him or Ichigo about it. Yato had seen many reincarnations, and hearing the fox demon's confident words, he really thought that this was a sin that Sonoko had committed in her previous life.
——This would explain why the fox demon, who should have had no connection with Suzuki, went to the mountain behind the Suzuki family.
If the garden is not in danger, there is no need to fight.
But this also means that he lost.
He thought he was here first...
Yato pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth and whistled dejectedly, but it didn't matter. After reincarnation, they could be considered two different people. Even though he lost in the previous life, he was the one who came first in this life!
It was almost impossible for Sonoko to have another life now; he was the end—"I can be the last one to come!"
Seeing that both sides seemed to be preparing for a truce, the local owner Nanase Momozono, who had been forced to squat on the roof early in the morning, finally climbed down the wall clumsily.
In her imagination, since they stopped fighting, everyone would have a friendly chat, exchange greetings and then go home: she was just late now, and if she didn't leave in half an hour, then she would really be skipping class!
The friendly meeting lasted only five minutes.
In fact, judging by the facial expressions on both sides, the talks were far from friendly from the start.
Tomoe's focus is on Suzuki Sonoko's current situation, while Yato's attention is all on the "person who told the fox demon Sonoko her name in this life" in his words.
"This matter must be clarified!"
Yato argued confidently: "Without knowing whether you were a friend or foe, he gave you Sonoko's address. How can I know whether those people are good or bad, and whether they have bad intentions?"
"The potential dangers haven't been eliminated yet. How can I go to see Yuanzi with such a long tail?"
"Vongola."
Bawei said it without hesitation.
After being certain that Sawada Tsunayoshi and his group were the reincarnations of the hated trio, Tomoe had no good feelings towards them at all. He felt it was a good deal to be able to exchange such a strange-pronouncing noun for news about her.
As it happens, Yato actually knows about the Vongola.
During the days when he helped Ichigo Kurosaki train by beating him day and night, there would occasionally be a little girl with a pineapple hairdo who would fearlessly accompany Ichigo Kurosaki to get beaten together.
The girl named Chrom is from the Vongola.
"But I remember that the Vongola and the Sonoko family are partners," Yato rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "Could it be that they have other intentions?"
So I decided to knock on their door.
——The one who was about to come to the door was Tomoe. Although he often hated "her" to the core, he could not accept that another human being would try to hurt her through his hands.
Especially this "other human" is the reincarnation of the annoying trio from back then.
Yato decided to go with the flow and hide in the shadow of the menacing fox demon to investigate the situation.
Nana Momozono felt like her head was about to explode.
However, blind obstruction was useless. Just half an hour later, the Sawada family, the noisiest family within a ten-mile radius of Namimori Town, welcomed the white-haired guest who was about to break down the door with a wave of his hand for the second time.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was watching TV at the time.
Because he is on sick leave today.
It is so rare that he can get sick once, not with a broken arm or leg, but just a slight cold and fever, which allows him to spend the whole day leisurely watching TV at home without any explosive baseball or other naughty kids.
This is the greatest enjoyment in life.
Before the last syllable of "Ah" faded away, the TV screen in his house suddenly flashed.
Sawada Tsunayoshi's heart was moved. He was about to open his mouth to call out to Reborn, but with a loud bang, the future tenth generation leader of the Vongola family looked up in confusion, only to see a vast expanse of blue sky and white sun.
——Where’s my roof?!
