Curse Return: Do I have to be a spellcaster as a member of the Heilongjiang Ministry?

"This shows that Xia Youjie's evil intentions have not spread."

Finally, I went to eat barbecue.

Yes, even Xia Youjie, who was obsessed with sprinting in reverse, still remembered to pick up his two lovely daughters to have dinner with him.

Independent box, a place with very few people.

Even the boss who served the dishes only came in once under Nanako's instructions, and he was absolutely not allowed to come back for anything after that.

The strange attitude of Mr. Wanzitou is so obvious that it is difficult for Atobe Keizawa to ignore it.

The blond child looked thoughtfully at the boss who walked out. It was normal to not like crowded places, but it was rare for it to be so extreme as Xia Youjie's.

"No, because Master Xiayou doesn't like monkeys." Mimiko replied angrily.

monkey.

Another new term, Atobe Keizawa updated his cognitive database.

Xia Youjie took the barbecue tongs and slowly turned the meat. He ate very little and took care of the three children present.

The aura of a male mother.

As long as Gojo Satoru is not around, Xia Youjie is the most reliable one.

It's just that peaceful lunch time didn't go well.

Suddenly, there was a bang, and the peaceful atmosphere was broken. Then there was a commotion outside. Atobe Kagezawa turned his head, and the closed sliding door blocked his sight.

There was a hint of disgust in the adults' eyes, and Mimiko and Nanako looked at their guardians the moment the voice sounded.

concern? Atobe Keizawa frowned. The child's emotion was not simply doubtful, curious or afraid.

But why are you worried about Xia Youjie? Atobe Keizawa tilted his head and glanced at him.

In a strange atmosphere, the blond boy reached out with chopsticks to the sizzling and oily meat slices. Such expensive beef would be burnt if not eaten.

After a while, someone knocked on the door. Atobe Kagezawa stood up and opened the door a third of the way in front of everyone, ensuring that the scene inside could be seen from the outside without exposing too much of the view.

"Hello, I am the manager of this store." The boss outside was extremely nervous and stammered: "There was an accident in the lobby outside just now. Someone... died. Detective Kudo hopes that everyone can come. Gather in the lobby, the police will be here soon."

Someone died? Atobe Kageze's hand holding the door paused, and then the noble young master nodded toward the door: "Don't worry, we will definitely cooperate when the police come. Before that, please allow us to stay in the private room." .”

There was nothing wrong with his words, and the blond kid didn't look like an ordinary person. The boss didn't dare to embarrass himself. He smiled awkwardly, turned around and left.

"Do you still want to eat?" Xia Youjie lowered his eyes and asked.

Mimiko and Nanako carefully observed his expressions. Neither child's expression was very good-looking. On the contrary, Atobe Keizawa frankly said that he was not full yet and should eat now, otherwise he might not be able to eat when the police came. have eaten.

Xia Youjie chuckled lightly, and the strangeness in his eyes dissipated a little. He picked up the tongs again and continued to grill.

The high-quality Wagyu beef was roasting sizzlingly, and the aroma of the meat overflowed. The two children's greed was aroused again. Xia Youjie seemed to have said unintentionally: "I don't like monkeys. They only live in this world." It’s just a waste of air.”

Monkeys, ordinary people.

The vast majority of ordinary people in this world.

Atobe Jingze struggled to connect the two. In this case, the unreasonable part of Xia Youjie became reasonable.

Xia Youjie kept staring at Atobe Jingze, and naturally saw the change of emotions in his eyes, and knew that he understood what he meant. Just when he wanted to continue speaking, Atobe Jingze nodded, but picked up his hand. The chopsticks reached for the meat in the baking pan again.

Xia Youjie: "..."

If you do this, then I can’t go on talking about it?

"Then I'll go out and deal with the police later." Atobe Kagezawa suggested after swallowing the meat in his mouth: "You shouldn't be caught by the magic community just by showing your face, right?"

Didn't the comics he read always have this kind of villain who tried to destroy the world? Xia Youjie is very powerful, good-looking, has a decent background, and even has a few close friends, so he fits the role of a villain quite well.

The fact that he can still sit here shows that Xia Youjie's malice has not spread.

"...That's not the case. They are so high-minded that they won't pay attention to this at all."

What happened to this person? Is this a matter of dealing with the police?

Xia Youjie had originally planned to take out the tray, but he didn't expect that after so long of mental construction, he hit a wall with Atobe Kageze's attitude.

The Atobe Kagezawa who was willing to sell himself to him in order to prevent him from killing ordinary people, now has almost no curiosity about his situation, not even as good as the plate of beef in front of him.

Xia Youjie suddenly felt that the appearance of this fine Wagyu beef was disgusting.

Even though he knew very well in his heart that the eleven-year-old Atobe Kageze and the eighteen-year-old Atobe Kageze were two different concepts, but the salary suddenly dropped so much, he still felt empty in his heart.

It just doesn’t feel good.

He couldn't act like a coquettish clingy dog ​​skin plaster like Gojo Satoru. In fact, if it weren't for the identity issue, he doubted that Atobe Keizawa would even choose to live in his house because he was afraid of being disturbed. .

The funny plan to improve his favorability also had no effect, and Xia Youjie suddenly felt a little upset.

This annoyance even briefly overcame his disgust for ordinary people, causing his expression to become split.

Atobe Kageze didn't really understand the meaning of "best friend". At the age of eighteen, he experienced stories that he could not explore when he was young. Such "stories" led to him and Xia Youjie sitting together to eat and barbecue together like they do now. .

But Atobe Kageze still remembered that he firmly distinguished the difference between himself and "him". He could not take Xia Youjie's concern for granted, nor could he give his sincerity naturally.

Atobe Keizawa doesn't need friends. This is the path he has decided on since he was ten years old.

But at the age of eighteen, he had a friend who was more important than his life.

The eleven-year-old child suddenly thought of the document bag his brother and mother had given him when they left Japan. It was a "secret" that has remained unopened to this day.

But that doesn't matter anymore. He is not Xia Youjie's close friend anyway, he is just a passerby who appears briefly due to a curse.

Such a shocking operation that spans time will only happen once in this life. Once the curse is lifted, he will still be him, but he will not be him.

In the narrow space, the atmosphere began to sluggish, but the murder case outside was not progressing slowly. From Atobe Keizawa's perspective, he could completely observe the location of the accident in the hall.

Hmm, this detective seems a bit familiar.

Atobe Keizawa put aside his complicated emotions and looked at the handsome man in a suit and tie outside, but he couldn't think of where he had seen him before.

The elegant Mr. Detective was holding his chin with his hand, staring at the corpse on the ground and thinking about something. Next to him, two men and one woman were arguing fiercely around him. The surrounding guests were in great mood swings.

"Aze, don't you want to help?" Xia Youjie asked with a smile, as if what happened just now had never happened.

Atobe Keizawa shook his head. He clearly saw black smoke coming out of one of the men. The thick feeling was exactly the same as the cursed spirits he usually saw.

Xia Youjie once said that curse spirits are born from people's negative emotions, so no matter how well the man conceals it, even if there is no evidence, Atobe Kageze will know that he is the murderer.

"It's not necessary." Xia Youjie thought that Atobe Kageze wouldn't answer, but he continued: "Except for curse spirits, more than 99% of the problems in this world can be solved by ordinary people by themselves, and there is no need to go beyond common sense. ability to interfere.”

[Jie, ordinary people are also very powerful, right? 】

At this moment, the figures of eleven-year-old Atobe Kageze and eighteen-year-old Atobe Kageze almost overlapped. Xia Youjie seemed to think that he was seeing his friend who had been lifted from the curse. Both their expressions and tone of voice , all exactly the same.

"They are exactly the same." Xia Youjie's expression softened, and an almost gentle expression appeared on his face.

What was he thinking? It was the same person, of course exactly the same.

But since they are exactly the same, when will eleven-year-old Aze admit that they are also friends?
