"Was it done by a monster?" Natsume asked.
"That's what they said when they went to investigate." Mingdao Zhouyi summoned his own shikigami, the long-haired Guaji and the curly-haired Sasago.
"After our ancestors stored valuables and sealed them, monsters moved into this warehouse to prevent others from invading. It's really troublesome. Monsters are such unreasonable and annoying existences." Natori complained on Monday.
Natsume was a little confused: "Since there is a warehouse that cannot be opened, if they have never opened it, how do they know who said that the warehouse cannot be opened?
If they had opened it and were cursed, why hadn't they sought an exorcist before?
Since there's no cash flow problem, it doesn't matter if you're cursed?"
It sounds like the ancestor of that family asked the monster to do this.
Natori looked at Natsume on Monday, "Are you arguing for the monster?"
"I just think there are too many doubts and they need to be investigated thoroughly." Natsume did not admit that he had defended the monster.
Natori smiled. "He's a gentle child, a kind and ordinary child."
Apart from his mysterious abilities, Natsume is just like any ordinary child. He sulks, is not very good at saying no, and will reject unreasonable accusations on behalf of unknown monsters before the truth is revealed. He is a gentle and kind child.
Natsume didn't say anything, but instead stared at the gecko on Natori Shuichi's neck crawling down his arm to his wrist, and then coiling up like a bracelet, making this monster, whose function was unknown, look a little cute.
Natori Zhoujie watched Natsume smile at the mole on his wrist and sighed: "This is the first time I see you smile, so this mole of mine must be of some use."
Making fun of his own pain again.
Natsume pursed his lips and said nothing.
When they parted, Natori handed Natsume the details of the commission on Monday and asked Natsume to meet here tomorrow.
"I didn't say I would help you." Natsume was surprised.
Natori Monday: “…Really?”
"It's absolutely true..." Natsume was interrupted by a voice in the bushes before he could finish his words. Another monster who wanted to steal the Book of Friends rushed over shouting his name.
Natsume subconsciously wanted to leave. He didn't want Natori Shuichi, a stranger he had only met for a while, to know about the Book of Friends.
But he didn't expect that Natori Shuichi would use the wooden stick with the talisman to pierce the monster's head directly. The monster let out a shrill wail. Natsume stopped Natori Shuichi who was about to attack and said: "That's enough. He is already injured. This warning is enough."
There is nothing wrong with being greedy, but taking things that do not belong to you because of greed is wrong, but it is not a capital crime.
"Monsters that attack humans cannot be forgiven. You should understand this if you have been tortured by monsters," said Natori Shuichi.
"If the person attacking me right now is a human, will you kill him without mercy?" Natsume asked.
Natori Shuu suddenly said unconsciously: "They are not human..."
Natsume didn't say anything else, just thanked Natori Zhou for saving him, then turned and left.
He could feel Natori Shuichi's hatred for monsters, so there was no need to say the rest, as he wouldn't listen even if he said it.
It's so hard to meet someone who can see the same thing as you, but it's difficult to understand each other.
On the way home, Natsume saw Madara who was still angry. He held Madara in his arms and rubbed Madara's fat belly and soft cat: "Okay, teacher, I was wrong. I won't reduce your food in the future."
Natsume finally admitted defeat. After all, it was a sealed body, so it didn't matter if it was a little fatter. With its original body being so big, it shouldn't have fatty liver or something.
"That's better." Madara finally forgave Natsume, but then he smelled a disgusting smell: "What did you encounter? Such a disgusting smell.
"A demon hunter." Natsume said as he walked with Madara in his arms, and then he saw a rope. When he turned around, he saw the monster he saw yesterday.
Natsume looked at the warehouse on the other side, then at the tied-up Hiiragi, and suddenly realized that this was the commission that Natori Zhouhui mentioned. Looking at Hiiragi's tied neck, this obviously didn't look like the monster that Natori Zhouhui mentioned moving in!
Natsume re-bandaged Hiiragi and heard her story. She was originally the guardian of the mountain, but was captured by an onmyoji to be the guard of this warehouse. If she was disobedient, her neck would be strangled by a rope.
"I wanted to run away, but then gave up," Hiiragi explained, noticing that Natsume was staring at her hands in a daze.
Natsume also saw scratch marks where the ropes were nailed.
Listening to Hiiragi's story of how Natori Shuichi bandaged her when she was injured as a child, and how she wanted to sacrifice her life to become Natori Shuichi's contribution, Natsume touched the rope and murmured something Xiangling once said: "My sister said that the easiest way to break a curse is to expel the power within it. A curse without power will naturally lose its threat."
"That's what aliens are like. Even a favor like a piece of cloth is so hard to repay..." Hiiragi saw Natsume holding the awl tied with a rope in his hand, and then with a force, not only did the awl fall off, but a piece of the door frame of the warehouse was also broken off.
"Natsume!" Madara pounced forward and used too much force, and ended up being knocked back by Natsume, who fell backwards.
Both the man and the cat were dizzy from the fall, but Ban still said, "I told you I don't need to lose weight!"
Hiiragi:? ? ?
Are we talking about weight loss now? Why did this thing get broken off like this?
(Let me tell you guys, I have opened a new book by Gyoyue, "Demon Slayer: Being a Demon or a Swordsman is Not as Good as Being a Shinsengumi"
Touken Ranbu x Demon Slayer.
The protagonist is Yao Yue.
This was inspired by the previous book, "Xiao Yue is also working hard today." Later, some readers complained that the collection was too messy, so I deleted it and started a new one based on that idea.
