Incorrect usage guidelines for the magic perimeter

On the bustling street, Natsume Takashi was standing in front of a shop, holding the last ferrule in his hand, aiming at the target solemnly and throwing it away!

pat.

The plastic ferrule was centered on the largest stuffed bear on the shelf.

"Oh! Little brother is amazing!"

The little girl standing next to him was full of admiration. At this moment, she was holding a candy apple in her hand, and she was covered with all kinds of small gifts... These were all won by Natsume's classmate participating in the celebration game earlier. of.

Because on the way to the village chief's house, the little guy looked around curiously, saying that he wanted to catch goldfish for fun, and then said that he wanted to eat takoyaki.Once the Natsume boy showed that he didn't want to agree, she would stare at the little brother with tears in her eyes.

Very poor.

As a kind-hearted person, Natsume doesn't have much cash on him, besides, he can't use the three game coins given by his cousin to pay the bill, right?Fortunately, most of the shops participating in the celebration tonight have small game settings. For some reason, he was so lucky tonight that he was so lucky that he won all the way, and the little girl was covered with all kinds of snacks and gifts.

Now that they were caught in the trap, the shopkeeper had no choice but to hold the big bear puppet, which was as tall as a person, and hand it to them.

"Here, Xiaoyu." Natsume Takashi squatted down holding the doll and said to the girl in a good-tempered manner, "You promised me that this is the last game, and when you get it, you must obediently go to the village chief grandpa with your brother. Home, I used the radio to find your father."

"Well! I said so, as long as..." Xiaoyu nodded her head seriously, suddenly her eyes were fixed behind the young man, and she immediately showed a big smile, jumped up and waved desperately, "Dad! Here! Here !"

Natsume looked back with difficulty, and found that it was a very gentle young and thin man who stumbled and pushed through the crowd and ran to his side, and then hugged the little girl nervously.

"Xiaoyu! Where did you go! Dad has been looking for you for a long time!"

"I'm sorry, Dad..." The little girl was embraced by her father, and she looked quite aggrieved, "I just want to see my mother..."

Natsume Takashi, who was holding the big bear doll beside him, keenly noticed that the young father's figure froze, as if he didn't want to talk about this topic.

"Oh, you child, how many times have I told you that if your mother has time, your father will take you to see her." The father wrinkled his brows melancholy, and then turned to look at Natsume beside him, showing a particularly grateful expression. Smiling, "Young man, did you find my daughter? Thank you! I only have such a family member by my side. I can't imagine what it will be like to lose this child!"

"You are too polite." Natsume waved his hands quickly and got up, "Helping lost children is what everyone should do, and I didn't really help much."

"It is true in theory, but how many people can really do it..." the young father muttered to himself and stood up while hugging Xiaoyu. The latter nestled in his father's arms and smiled at his little brother, reminding him, "Dad, don't you have a seal? Can you stamp one for your brother?"

"Eh?"

Only then did Natsume notice that there was a red ribbon tied around the left arm of the visitor, indicating that this young father was also one of the authors of the question tonight.

"That's right! Xiaoyu, look at Dad's memory, he almost forgot!"

"Hee hee, dad is so stupid."

"Hahaha I can't help it, come on kid, give me your card." He said the latter half of the sentence to Natsume.

The brown-haired boy wanted to refuse this stamp that felt a little free, but when he thought that his cousin might still be working hard for a certain stamp in a corner of the village, he finally took out the stamp card and handed it to other side.

He sincerely thanked: "Thank you, Xiaoyu's father."

"I should be the one thanking you. You are such a beautiful and kind-hearted young man. Isn't it Xiaoyu?"

"Yes, it is!"

Natsume Takashi:? ? ?

After giving the big bear puppet to Xiaoyu and her father, Natsume Takashi waved his hands to say goodbye to the father and daughter, and then he continued to look for the cat teacher who didn't know where he went.However, when he turned around, someone bumped into his arms, almost knocking the thin boy to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The villager quickly reached out to support him. The animal mask on the man's face was half crooked, revealing a half-panic face. "My seal has been stolen, can you help me?"

Natsume Takashi glanced at the red silk scarf on the other party's sleeve. At this moment, it was difficult to describe his complex emotions in words.

"Well...why did you ask me for help?" He still couldn't help asking before being pulled away.

"Oh, because you are beautiful!"

"???"

Why are people at this celebration like this.

…………

……

The celebration in Shenxiang Village was lively and lively all night long.

When the celebration was coming to an end and just before dawn, Shibukawa Yo, who had been hacking monsters all night, met his cousin Natsume Takashi, who was also inexplicably tired, at the appointed place.

"Cousin..."

"cousin!"

The two young men who hadn't slept all night made cries of rejoicing and sighing.

Satisfied, Shibukawa Yao took out a stamp card that was stained with blood for some reason, and showed him, "Look, I have collected all five stamps!"

"..."

However, to the girl's surprise, Natsume Takashi took out a card, two cards... six cards from the pocket of his slacks in an exceptionally silent manner.

One card can collect 10 stamps, and these six cards are all covered with red stamps.In other words - our Kamijou Toma's collection rate tonight is 12 times that of Misaka Mikoto's!Complete crushing!

"..." Shibukawa Yoshi began to wonder if there was something wrong with the way she opened the celebration, but looking at the accumulated psionic energy so far, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Forget it, forget it!

[Current power: 17]

Seeing that she suddenly fell into a strange silence, the boy carefully observed her expression, fearing that his sister would get angry, so he explained timidly like a deer: "Cousin, I didn't do those dangerous things, and I never left A bright place. I just met some well-spoken questioners, and the questions they gave me were all about chatting, helping me find things, etc., and then... gathered so many..."

Damn, why do you encounter such simple challenges, but what she encounters is either racing with monsters on a rainy night, or slashing evil spirits in the dojo!

If the celebration was not about to end, Shibukawa Yao had no doubt that his cousin would have successfully maxed out the goodwill of the whole village.

——What breed of European emperor are you?Can I come to you for the next card draw game?

Shibukawa Yao sighed, shook his head, and held his poor card together with Ouhuang's cards in the palm of his hand. He looked up at the young man again, and suddenly found a question: "Where's Mr. Cat?"

"Uh……"

Natsume couldn't tell. He had been forced to gain favor with those who made the questions all night, so that he didn't even have time to find his own pets—the most important thing was that he didn't dare to leave the noisy and bright main road to those Looking for a fat cat in the dark woods.

To be honest, he is not too worried about the safety of Mr. Cat. In the countless thrilling stories of returning the names of big and small monsters in the past, he also fought side by side with the big monster named "Blade" many times. He knows that Mr. Cat's body is absolutely It's not a big monster to mess with... Now I'm afraid that it will fall into a pit drunk and won't be able to climb out for a long time.

Seeing him showing a slightly guilty expression, Shibukawa Yao frowned at that time.Especially when he thought of his little cute cousin gathering together among the villagers who turned into ghosts and monsters without the protection of cat bodyguards, he was so angry that he was almost speechless.

At this moment, she understood Qingming's feeling of sighing to herself sometimes.

——You stupid, uneasy child!

At this moment, people holding torches gathered from all directions in the village.

The footsteps were too noisy and obvious, and Shibukawa Yao didn't care about settling accounts with this idiot and good man, and immediately took a step forward to block his cousin with his body, and soon they found that the leader who came was the old village chief.

"Oh, have you collected all five pokes..."

It's just that when the village chief looked at the seven cards, he almost couldn't maintain the polite smile on his face, and his eyes almost popped out.

In the end, he seemed to understand something, looked up at the brown-haired boy who was protected by the girl, and praised with a smile like a sunny chrysanthemum on his old face: "Kamijo-kun, you are such a beautiful boy."

Natsume Takashi, who has heard this remark no less than forty times tonight: ...

Dazed was Yoshikawa Yoshi, who was ignored by the village chief for his appearance: ...

The mood of the two young people is a bit complicated.

"Then, what follows is a mysterious gift for the two of you."

The old man, the village chief, waved a wooden cane and announced that a fire bucket used to burn paper suddenly appeared in front of him-in fact, everyone who went through the night of celebrations did not think it was strange, including Natsume Kishi and Shibukawa Yoshi.

The village head coughed twice, and said the rules about gifts very seriously:

"The gift is at the other end of the passage, but there are monsters guarding the end of the passage. If you want to leave here, the old man will send the two of you out of the village, but if you want to get the gift back... I'm afraid you have to go through the gate of the watchman gone."

After hearing this, Shibukawa Yao was very dissatisfied: "Wait, wait a minute, village chief, what kind of gift are you? Shouldn't the normal gift be handed over by the organizer? We worked so hard tonight, in the end You actually have to get rid of that watcher monster to get the gift you should have gotten?"

The village head's wrinkled old face was very helpless: "So it's an abnormal 'mysterious gift'."

Two people: ...

"If you want to leave, give up the gift, and we can send the two of you out." The old man's tone was calm, with a little imperceptible fatigue, "Here, the old man must remind that the guard is very powerful. , rhetoric, once you choose a gift, you will have an endless relationship with it. If you don’t make it right...but it will really kill you. Please think carefully about it, both of you.”

As soon as Shibukawa Yao heard that people would die, he didn’t really want any broken gifts at that time. The words of the organizer’s dead old man sounded very unreliable, and he was not sure when he got it, and he found out that it was something like expired bread. .But at this time, Natsume Takashi tugged on her sleeve and reminded her in a very low voice: "Mr. Kitty."

...Yes!That idiot fat cat is still trapped in a corner of this village!They can't just give up their gifts and leave the village!

Fuck you, Mr. Cat.At the critical moment, he knew to cause trouble for the shit shoveling officers.

So the girl suddenly asked: "Village chief, I want to ask first, if we choose to leave, will you send us away immediately?"

"Of course, you must have noticed something." The village chief stroked his beard in a seemingly harmless manner, and said words that were terrifying without thinking carefully, "Staying here for too long is not good for your health."

"……Oh."

After knowing this information, Shibukawa Yao immediately discussed with his cousin, shoulder to shoulder.

"Cousin, I'm going to challenge you to buy time. You are responsible for finding the cat. When Teacher Cat finds it, I will come back with a mysterious gift. Let's go home together, shall we?"

Natsume Takashi: "..."

He looked at the girl's dark but burning eyes, and finally nodded helplessly and moved.

Shibukawa Yao suddenly laughed happily.

——For my safety and Teacher Cat, my cousin chose to face the gatekeeper alone!

——Ou Huang, why don't you compete with my sister and me for the last boss head in this dungeon?

The author has something to say: What a beautiful misunderstanding.

But Yaowan actually doesn't want to lose her vest anymore, she quite likes Cousin Ouhuang (who doesn't), and let her act in a life-and-death drama similar to the flickering brother... She really doesn't want to lie.

As for why the villagers think that Ouhuang is better than pills in terms of appearance, there is actually a reason. The "beautiful" they say is not "beautiful" in the ordinary sense.
