Vientiane Senro

After leaving Sato's house, Ji Qiu and Foxnosuke are going to return to their residence in this world.

Foxnosuke, who had been silent for a long time before, finally turned his little head back, and his tone was a bit complicated: "How should I put it, Morikawa-kun, do you feel that in this world, whether it is human or monster..."

It thought for a while, and finally came up with a fairly suitable adjective: "It's a little too gentle. During the few days you came to this world, you have solved several tasks to eliminate demon masters. Except for Yasui Shimizu, there is no one. A person has suffered too much harm, even Yasui Shimizu's death is actually due to his own body...just because of the short time we spent together in childhood, this tree of human face is willing to use its own vitality to serve She continued her life, and even after the death of Yasui Qingshui, the fallen leaves withered and she walked towards Nirvana. Even if she grows fruit again in the coming year, she will not be the human-faced tree demon at this time."

Even if it is it, it seems that in this witness again and again, it feels a certain kind of unique emotion flowing between humans and demons.This emotion is not intense, nor strong, but it is there, no matter what, it cannot be ignored.

Tsurumaru Kuninaga was walking behind Foxnosuke's side, and he couldn't help laughing when he heard the little fox's words: "I think it's pretty good, not all monsters are bad, they are willing to I think it's good that they do something for their friends, and their friends don't see them as different from them."

Compared with this world, their original world is a bit too cruel. Between humans and monsters, let alone friendship, monsters have cannibals, and there are human supremacists in the countermeasure room. The contradiction between the two is complicated and opposite, like a sharp weapon, just to scratch the other party, even if you are also covered in bruises, you can put it aside for the time being.

"Hate is something like this," Ji Qiu thought for a while before answering Honosuke's question: "It will accumulate over time."

"But if you can't even communicate with each other," Ji Qiu said, "If you are too lonely, you will regard the other party as a precious and important friend, although for Yasui Shimizu, it has been more than ten years. It happened before, but maybe, for Human Face Tree, that scene didn’t last too long, because he was the only precious friend, so he just tried to help her as much as possible. It's easy to understand."

Foxosuke squinted at him: "It's really unexpected that you can say such a thing."

It turned over and shook its tail: "According to your style, I thought you couldn't understand this special feeling anyway, or that you didn't want to admit its existence, reject it, deny it, plus Ridicule it, criticize it, in this way, it fits your villain's temperament."

"Is this the role I am in your eyes?" Ji Qiu's tone became a little dangerous, but he didn't reply back, but replied in a somewhat weird tone: "But I think, shouldn't this be just now?" Is it your own doing?"

Foxosuke was completely stunned by the whole fox, he began to think about it, it seems, as if, he really satirized that stupid and kind tree of human face just now, what should I do... just pretend nothing happened .

Foxnosuke used the sleeping skill... Foxnosuke fell asleep.

A slender and tall figure appeared at the entrance of the alley. As the distance drew closer, a young girl was revealed in front of each of them. She was wearing a short-sleeved sailor suit and a red scarf on her chest. , her hair is very straight, it is a kind of light yellow, her eyes are also a kind of light brown, she is a very young and beautiful girl.

The two sides passed quietly in this way.

"Wait!" A voice sounded from behind, with some hesitation and temptation, the girl still asked: "Are you... are you humans or demons?"

Tsurumaru Kuninaga glanced at her in surprise. In Yahara, he had already identified most of the demon masters in the last gathering, and this girl was not one of them. Although people and demons in this world He was moved by the emotion between them, but anyway, the way of thinking of monsters is different from that of humans. It would be quite dangerous for ordinary people to see monsters.

"We are monsters." Ji Qiu replied.

"Ah." Tsurumaru Kuninaga suddenly discovered that although his master judge of the gods was inhuman and indifferent most of the time, but in some special cases, he would suddenly have a kind of indifference. It's strange and interesting, just like when he was at Sato's house before, he would deliberately delay the time until the night, the reason was just because he thought certain things would look better at night.

Hearing this, the girl carefully looked at Ji Qiu, Tsurumaru Kuninaga, and the fox pretending to be asleep. "Liar!" The girl raised her eyebrows slightly: "They may be monsters, but you should be human."

Without waiting for what Ji Qiu was saying, the girl started talking on her own: "I heard that a very powerful exorcist has recently arrived in Yayuan. The fox also has a bloodthirsty and brutal demon knife, chasing and killing monsters is as cruel as chopping melons and vegetables... I saw the fox, but the demon knife..."

Her eyes fell on the gorgeous and handsome Tsurumaru Kuninaga, with a suspicious expression on her face.

Tsurumaru Kuninaga covered half of his face: "Have the rumors been distorted to this point? Is the next step going to say that I'm killing everyone?"

Fox's ears perked up: What's going on, why did you bring me in?

"It seems that you have a deep understanding of us." Ji Qiu completely ignored the truth of the rumors, but said to the girl: "Looking at you, you are so interested in monsters, you should be the one that the other demon masters say. I said 'Natsume Reiko'."

"You know me?" Natsume Reiko was a little surprised, but she quickly realized: "The monsters must have revealed my information!"

She was not angry either, but changed the subject and said, "I heard that there is a big and scary tree monster here, but since you came out from here, you should have pulled out that tree monster? "

After finishing speaking, her eyes fixed on Ji Qiu.

"No," Ji Qiu waved his hand, and said very briefly: "The human-mask tree exhausted its accumulated vitality in order to renew the life of its human friends. If you want to see it, you'd better wait until next spring. , At that time, when the dead tree is in spring, you should be able to see a newborn monster."

"Well," Natsume Reiko didn't mind that she returned empty-handed, she glanced at Tsurumaru Kuninaga with interest, her gaze crossed the long knife hanging from his waist, and finally said to Ji Qiu : "You already know my name, so I won't introduce myself anymore, so how should I address you?"

Ji Qiu paused: "This is 'Tsurumaru', full name is 'Tsurumaru Kuninaga', he is my sword shikigami. As for me, you can call me 'Sen', the exorcist 'Sen' '."

"You are really cunning." Natsume Reiko looked closely at the accountant Qiu, and then said: "But forget it, since we have exchanged names, we can be regarded as friends. If there is anything in the future, you can also report it to me, Natsume Reiko. name."

"Then, see you later!" Natsume Reiko quickly ran away.

Are we friends after exchanging names?Ji Qiu was noncommittal to this sentence, but Tsurumaru Kunyong looked thoughtfully at the back of the girl leaving, "What's wrong?" Ji Qiu asked.

"It's nothing, Mori-sama," Tsurumaru Kuninaga kept in mind what Ji Qiu had ordered him to do. Even though he often heard Foxunosuke call the God Judge Morikawa-kun, he never tried to change his name. He laughed and said, "I just feel that , Miss Natsume Reiko, doesn't seem to be very good at interacting with humans."

Although she looked carefree, Tsurumaru Kuninaga could still see that she was actually a little nervous in front of the God Judge who was about the same age as her, but she just concealed it well, so she didn't show it.Maybe it's just like the God Judge said before, this is also a somewhat lonely person?

"Don't think so much," Honosuke who didn't know when he "woke up" snorted, "When did you see your 'Master Mori' go talk to some useless strangers?"

Tsurumaru Kuninaga was a little dumbfounded.

Ji Qiu didn't refute Fox's sudden words, he just smiled lightly and said: "If I remember correctly, Fox, you once analyzed that if you want to travel through time and space, you need some items with enough fate to act as historical records." Guidance in the long river?"

When it comes to crossing, Foxnosuke is no longer lazy, it seems to understand, and replied to his previous indifference and concentration: "Do you think that little guy named 'Natsume Reiko' has enough to act as a 'rope'? "

It jumped down and walked back and forth: "This is unlikely. Although such things that can be involved in history are rare, each of them is a treasure that has left a great reputation in human history, and it can be worth as much as The overall concept of swords is analogous to the existence of national treasures such as Bachi Qiong Gouyu. Although that little girl has a powerful demon power that other humans don't have, I don't feel that she has any great treasures on her body. "

It glanced back at Tsurumaru Kuninaga: "If it weren't for the fact that we were wandering into this different world, with this long knife, we actually wouldn't need to collect some items that represent a part of history."

"Besides," it turned its head again, looking directly at Ji Qiu with calm eyes: "I didn't see any urgent action from you before, but now, you suddenly concluded that you seem to have hidden a lot from me. something."

"Isn't this a matter of course?" Ji Qiu looked at Honosuke in surprise, as if he didn't understand why it still had such doubts now, "Besides," Ji Qiu said slowly, "you and I have already guessed, The problem that caused our accident this time is likely to come from this world. Since it cannot be found in this era, it should probably be at the same time as ours. Then, we must first find out the problem before we can be more Return safely to our own world."
