Playing house in the anime world

"It's Aiko, long time no see." When Hozuki saw Gojo Aiko and her group at the door, he showed a happy expression, and then the sky suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy and he showed a depressed expression.

The moment he saw Gojo Aiko, he blurted out "Long time no see", although they had indeed not seen each other for a long time, several months, and the last time they met was several months ago.

Although, he hasn't seen Gojo Aiko for a long time!

This shows how busy he is at work!

Although he could find a place in Meteor Garden to relax at any time since the establishment of Meteor Garden, he really didn't have much time to do anything other than sleeping, so no one could see him even in Meteor Garden.

He felt very, very dissatisfied, especially when he discovered that Meteor Court seemed to have undergone many new changes, which meant that he had not been to Meteor Court for a long time.

"Kidan Dad!" Gojo Aiko slid over and got into Kidan's arms, "Are you on vacation?"

Gui Deng's eyes were dull. There were not many holidays in hell. The only day of the Obon Festival in the whole year was considered a day of holiday. If you wanted a holiday at other times, you could only ask for leave or squeeze it out in other ways.

After all, hell is full of dead people serving their sentences. If you give them a day off, who will take care of them? Do you want to give them a day off, too?

The reason why there is a one-day holiday on the Obon Festival is because that day is the day when the deceased returns home to visit their relatives, so the jailers can also have a day off.

They have to release the deceased on the same day, and then catch those who refuse to come back at night, so if you really count it, it may only be half a day of holiday.

Normally, prison guards work on a shift system, but most of them do not have many holidays, let alone assistant officers.

In fact, when it comes down to it, it is because there are not enough staff in hell. There are not many local ghosts, and relatively few people are willing to be jailers. Especially now that times have changed, many ghosts are unwilling to do those bloody jobs.

Even fewer people of other races are willing or suitable to be prison guards.

It’s not that Gui Deng hasn’t thought about reform, but it’s impossible to change it in a short time. After all, hell is still a relatively traditional place. The modern world hasn’t yet developed any fully automatic robots to replace humans to work, and hell is at least several decades behind the modern world in technological progress.

"How about I adjust the speed of time?" Gojo Aiko can adjust the time to one day here and one minute there, but it takes a lot of her superpower energy to maintain it.

"No, I'm fine. There is a particularly busy period every year, but it came a little faster this year." Gui Deng actually has a lot more time to rest. After all, one day here is only one hour there.

The reason why he didn't come here was because someone in Hell might look for him at any time, so even if he wanted to rest, he could only rest in his own room and could not come to Meteor Garden or the other world.

"It is important to combine work and rest." Zhongli took a sip of tea and looked at Ying and Paimon. "Some things can be handed over to subordinates, and some things can be entrusted to trustworthy people."

Hozuki silently rested his chin on Gojo Aiko's head, then sighed softly.

"There are too few capable people... It's good enough that they don't hold us back..." Gui Deng has always been very clear about the slackness of hell. The so-called eight hundred gods and the demons and monsters in hell are far not as powerful as everyone imagines.

Moreover, these guys don't have particularly strong personalities. Although they live long, they usually stay peacefully in heaven or hell. They have never encountered any setbacks or major hardships, so when they encounter some of the unreasonable dead in modern times, they don't even know how to deal with it.

After all, prison guards have stable jobs and hell is short of people. Even if a prison guard does a bad job, they will not be fired. Instead, they will try their best to find a suitable position for him.

Especially those jobs require special skills, and he is the only one who knows this skill, and he is not willing to teach it to others. That is the iron rice bowl among iron rice bowls!

These old foxes who have lived for thousands of years have countless people slacking off at work on weekdays, but you just can't do anything about them.

Only the younger jailers are still relatively energetic and willing to obey Gui Deng's discipline, but the young people are not capable enough at the moment, so everything can only be left to time.

"Uh... I always feel like I see a strong resentment in Mr. Kizuki..." Paimon didn't expect that Gojo Aiko's father was such a person. How to put it, he had a similar feeling to Zhongli, very reliable but not easy to mess with. But I didn't expect that he was so busy at work.

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Hozuki, and I'm the assistant officer of hell. You don't seem to have such a thing as hell here. You can just think of me as an official who manages the world where people go after they die." Hozuki lingered on Paimon for two more seconds. It was clear at first glance that she looked like someone that Gojo Aiko would like. She liked small and cute things, no matter if they were people or something else.

"Huh? The world we go to after death? So, so magical..." Paimon suddenly thought of Manye's friends. Could it be that Gojo Aiko has such magical powers because she is the daughter of a hell official?

Although Gojo Aiko is an adopted daughter, and there are only leylines in Teyvat, no hell.

"Aiko's ability has nothing to do with me. I met her by chance." Hozuki saw through Paimon's thoughts, but Gojo Aiko's ability had nothing to do with him.

"You are all equally amazing..." Paimon has actually always been confused about Gojo Aiko's abilities. Although Ying seems to understand, she doesn't.

"Hehe, I guessed that Uncle Zhongli would get along well with Hozuki dad~" Gojo Aiko quietly reached out to Paimon, and Paimon moved over tacitly, and the two began to share the snacks on the table silently.

"Among all the gods I have seen, Mr. Zhongli is indeed the most powerful one." Gui Deng felt a headache when he thought of the bunch of weird gods in his own world.

"No, Mr. Gui Deng's ability is no less." Zhongli admired Gui Deng's ability to support Hell alone, especially since he was a key figure in the establishment and reform of Hell.

In short, on the surface, Kizuna is just the assistant officer of the King of Hell, Yama, but in fact he is a key figure in the entire hell. He is the kind of person that others have to respect no matter where he goes.

"Are they promoting each other's business?" Wendy was also secretly eating a snack and poured herself a cup of tea.

"This is the adult world, even though they are both very powerful." Paimon shook his head silently. Instead of saying these polite words, he might as well eat a few more snacks!

"By the way, when are you leaving?" Wendy suddenly remembered this. He was about to lose his delicious all-you-can-eat Apple Paradise!

"Let's do it tomorrow!" Gojo Aiko and the others had originally planned to do it tonight, but since Hozuki has arrived, they'll extend it by one day.

"Then I'll go with you tomorrow." Gui Deng originally wanted to leave soon, but after thinking about it, he decided to give himself a day off!

"Great! I'm going to sleep with Hozuki dad tonight!" Aiko Gojo happily told others the good news.

“Wuuuu Aiko, you must remember to come and see us in the future!” Although Paimon will leave Liyue tomorrow, he did not expect that Gojo Aiko and the others will also leave tomorrow. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"I'll come to see you when I have a holiday!" Gojo Aiko can come to the other world to play when she is free on weekends. After this holiday is over, she will have visited everyone's world and will be more casual afterwards.

As long as they could spare even one day, it would be enough for them to play in the other world for half a month. If that didn't work, she could also manually adjust the speed of time. Although it would take a bit longer, it was still doable.

Moreover, she is currently working hard to study how to allow those who have obtained the authority to enter and exit Meteor Garden freely without being restricted by the world, and also to allow Gojo Satoru and Saiki Sosuke to enter Meteor Garden and even go to the other world.

"Hehe, let's go to Xumi or Fontaine together then!" Paimeng estimated that she and Ying should already be in Fontaine by then. They actually stayed in each country for quite a long time.

So as long as Aiko Gojo doesn't come back after several years, the two of them should still be in Fontaine by then.

"Great, I heard that Fontainebleau is a kingdom of water, so can I swim often?" Aiko Gojo has been waiting for summer so that she can go swimming.

I heard that the Fontaine people seem to be able to survive in water for a long time, as if they had evolved gills. It would be great if they could stay in the water for that long. The feeling of soaking the whole body in the water is really very comfortable.

"We'll tell you when we get back!"

Paimon and Ying didn't stay for too long. They stayed for a meal and then left. The next time they meet, it might not be in Liyue Harbor.

Zhongli and Wendy didn't stay too long. They left after eating two meals.

"The beach house will be temporarily handed over to Manye!" Kenji Hagiwara handed all the documents and information of the beach house to Manye. If anything happened during the days they were away, they would have to rely on him.

Kaedehara Manye also left in the evening. He changed his schedule temporarily. It happened that Big Sister Beidou was going to Inazuma, so he planned to go back with her to deal with the problem of Chiba Ninoyu's cat first.

"Huh... the space is actually full. Should we take out these weapons and find a place to put them separately in Meteor Garden?" Matsuda Jinpei looked at the things they had sorted out from the previous worlds, including the things from Teyvat this time, which filled up the warehouse in Wisteria Garden.

Some of the ingredients that needed to be kept fresh could no longer be placed in the refrigerator, so they were moved to their own space buttons.

But the space button originally contained the weapons that were snatched from the Black Organization, and the loss of these weapons was very small, so there are still a lot of them now.

But under normal circumstances, weapons are not easily damaged, so it is better to take out the weapons and store them in the Meteor Court.

"It would be better if the Wisteria Garden was a little bigger. The second floor is basically filled with books, clothes and the like. Although the kitchen and living room on the first floor are large, they are already full just for the kitchen utensils and ingredients that we use on a daily basis." Oda Sakunosuke never expected that the warehouse with three rooms in the Wisteria Garden would be filled up one day.

The wisteria courtyard is actually very large. The large house in the middle has two floors. Since no one lives there, the original bedroom is used as a library. It is also a place to store rare fabrics they bought, so it can be considered a large collection room.

The layout of the first floor is relatively conventional, divided into a kitchen and a living and dining room. There is a row of one-story small houses on each side of the yard. The left one is a utility room and the right one is a warehouse.

"Should we dig a cellar or something?" Caesar thought they could expand downwards.

"That makes sense! When we get back, let Aiko build a basement!" Hagiwara Kenji thought that a cellar was a good idea, so he might as well make a big hole to connect the warehouse and kitchen on the ground. It would be very convenient then.

"Speaking of which, could there be underground buildings in those areas that haven't been studied much?" Kanae Kocho suddenly remembered that they didn't seem to have explored underground much.

"It seems to be true... We haven't explored the seabed much." Oda Sakunosuke felt that the land and the air alone were enough for them to deal with.
