Curse back: As a swordsman, what's wrong with a happy ending?

Su Ze turned aside and said calmly to the corner, "Why is there a rustling sound in the corner over there? Sister Beichuan! Did a cat run into the store?"

The four people in the corner then realized that they were discovered.

Kitagawa Hitomi's body trembled violently, and she found that the other three were looking at her with pleading expressions.

Her face turned gloomy, and then she took a deep breath and pinched her throat to make a "meow" sound.

He immediately stuck his head out and said awkwardly, "Oh, sorry, Su Ze, I'm bothering you! I'll throw...'cat' out--"

She emphasized those two words.

Then she fled in a panic amid the grateful looks of the other three, and the other three followed her and left.

Now only Su Ze and Gao Zi are left.

"Hehe, it's just like you~" Glass said jokingly.

Su Ze does play tricks on people occasionally.

She then began to answer Su Ze's second question: "As for why you don't go home..."

"——Maybe you don't want to go back."

Su Ze heard an unexpected answer.

He looked up at Glass, who was looking out the window with her head tilted to one side, her expression indifferent.

……

Su Ze closed the door, changed back into his T-shirt and shorts, and put on a cheap quartz watch on his wrist.

Nishiko followed Suze back from the restaurant where he worked, and he brought a few things with him.

"So... who should we look for first?" Su Ze shook his wrist, and the black watch moved slightly up.

"This is the first time I see you dressed like this~" Glass looked him up and down.

"You often wear school uniform..." Su Ze responded with a smile.

Even during the holidays, Glass still wore her high school uniform. Come to think of it... Su Ze had never seen her in her regular uniform.

"Let's go find Xia Yu first~"

"Yes, Miss Glass—"

They walked towards the stairs side by side.

Spots of sunlight danced on my shoulders.

……

"Hey, Geto, we're here to play with you~" Glass leaned forward, stretched out his hand and greeted with a smile.

Xia Yujie, who came to open the door, was stunned for a moment.

He was wearing loose wide-leg pants and a light gray T-shirt, and he tied his hair into a bun because he felt too hot.

The surprise on his face was beyond words.

"Well, it's so hot outside, why don't you invite us in..." Su Ze coughed lightly and reminded at the right time.

In the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day, with heat waves rolling in the air.

"Sorry, please come in--" He made way.

Su Ze and Gao Zi went in one after another.

Su Ze restrained himself and looked around the house, looking at the items that clearly showed the atmosphere of life, the large roll of toilet paper, the open drink on the dining table, the refrigerator that was making a slight noise...

Glass was much more casual, with his hands behind his back, scanning every inch of the place.

"Well...it's a very cozy house, nothing special about it--" Glass concluded while holding the watermelon.

Xia Youjie fanned himself gently with a palm-leaf fan, rocking leisurely on the armchair, and replied: "I'm really sorry, my family is just very ordinary~"

There was a plate full of fruit on the table next to him, and the trash can at his feet was filled with all kinds of fruit peels.

"The watermelon in your hand is the most luxurious thing in my house—" Xia Yujie said half-jokingly.

Xiaoshi, who was swinging his legs and eating a watermelon, stiffened for a moment and chuckled dryly.

Although the price of watermelon in Japan is indeed quite high...it even reached the level of a "luxury product" at one point.

But it is very likely that Geto Suguru is still exaggerating.

"Where are my uncle and aunt?" Su Ze put down the tea in his hand.

"My father is at work, and my mother went out to buy groceries. She knew I was afraid of the heat, so she didn't let me follow her." Xia Yujie replied, holding his chin with his hand.

The fans beside them were rustling, and the breeze slightly blew the hair of the three people.

Su Ze breathed a sigh of relief and explained the reason for his visit.

"...So, you are here to give me a new student card? You can obviously send it directly--" Xia Yujie took the thin card and the small notebook and raised his eyebrows.

"After all, there is nothing to do, so I just came here in person." Su Ze responded indifferently.

"I also came to visit you~" added Glass.

"You make me sound like I'm seriously ill and bedridden..." Xia Yujie complained about what Nishiko said.

"...I heard that you also took the initiative to accept tasks during the holidays?" Su Ze asked another question.

Xia Youjie was stunned for a moment, his face slightly serious: "Yeah, the curse spirits will not stop their activities because of the hot summer... Rather, people's irritable mood in midsummer is more likely to breed new curses-"

There is one more thing that Geto Suguru didn't say - the frequent occurrence of cursed spirit incidents is also directly related to the emergence of him, the "new special grade".

But the two of them were as clear as a mirror and could not be more clear.

"...You must combine work and rest." Su Ze had a lot to say, but he couldn't bring himself to say it, and in the end, only this sentence remained.

Xia Youjie was stunned when he heard this - he thought Su Ze would say something more nagging.

He chuckled helplessly: "Yes, yes~"

The dust in the room floated quietly, forming paths of light.

Later, Xia Youjie's mother returned home. The woman whose face was marked by the traces of time was very kind, and her former beauty could still be seen from the traces carved by time.

She was very happy that Geto Suguru's friend came to see him. After all, she had always been worried that the sudden transfer to a high school would have a bad impact.

After a round of greetings, Su Ze and Gao Zi reluctantly declined her enthusiastic invitation to dinner, kidnapped Master Xia himself, and then left Xia Yujie's house as if escaping.

Su Ze said helplessly: "Auntie is really enthusiastic..."

Geto Xiayou didn't know what to say.

Su Ze continued to add: "And he is much more frank than you——"

Master Xia pursed his lips.

The three of them stood beside the light rail stop, waiting for the train to arrive.

There was a rumbling sound of wind breaking.

……

"Is that the Gojo family's mansion?" Glass asked in a low voice.

"Well... after being nominated for special grade, I went to the case library to look for relevant information about the three royal families, which contained rough sketches of the layouts of each family." Su Ze stood next to her and glanced at the mansion over there from afar. The patrol officers in the distance shrank into small dots.

"I understand the logic, but isn't the high school's case library a little too invincible?" Xia Yujie couldn't help but complain.

"That's the accumulation of hundreds of years of wisdom among magicians—" Master Su seemed to be radiating the light of knowledge.

Master Xia glanced at Su Ze, then narrowed his fox eyes. He felt as if he was blinded.

"So, are there records of infiltration routes in the technical high school?" Glass leaned forward slightly and asked a slightly naive question.

"No, this is one of the most confidential information of the three families... and each generation of family heads will also improve the layout of the family."

Su Ze lowered his head and looked at the mansion through the gaps between the branches.

"Ze is right... Generally speaking, infiltration is unrealistic."

Master Xia was squatting in a large bush, holding two bunches of branches in his hands.

"…Besides, why are we being so sneaky?!"

He stood up suddenly and angrily threw the branch in his hand, and the leaves fell to the ground.

The patrolmen far below did not notice the small noise on the distant mountain at all.
