The top floor of the Authority—

As a data management room, Yuko has a high level of authority.She replaced the entire wall of her office with special glass, from which she can look down on the busy traffic of the whole city.

Sitting on the office chair, she was lazily shaking her pipe, and her gaze fell on the road in front of the Administration Building: Xinjiu and Dororo crossed the road arm in arm, and the tall and slender young man who followed behind them seemed to feel something. Raising his head, his caramel-colored eyes met Yuko's.

Yuko smiled at him, her red lips raised slightly.

knock knock --

The door was politely knocked three times, and Yuko looked away: "Please come in."

"Ah, long time no see, Miss Yuko!"

Sora pushed the door open and entered with a warm smile on his face.Yuko looked at him with a smile: "It is indeed a rare visitor."

Everyone knows that the Supervisor of District 02 is a veritable devil.

And it is famous for going to the Three Treasures Hall for everything.

"I just suddenly remembered something interesting and wanted to ask you."

Sorasuke touched the shielding device on his head with one hand, his brows and eyes curved: "If Miss Yuko doesn't mind, let's go to a nearby restaurant and talk while having dinner?"

Yuko raised her hand, knocking her pipe on the corner of the table next to her, her red eyes seemed to emit a magnificent light behind the black bangs.

She smiled slightly: "Of course - can you go to the restaurant on Chunhe Street? His sake is super delicious~"

Xin Jiu returned home with a pile of brick books, and the night outside was already dark.She piled the books on the table in the living room, rubbed her sore arms, and sank into the soft sofa.

so tired.

Let's get some sleep first...you won't eat dinner, shall we?

Just as she was about to fall asleep in a daze, the sound of an electric drill came from outside the house!

Xinjiu covered his ears and let out a 'hiss', then opened his eyes in a daze: this sound...is someone decorating?

She rubbed the back of her head and got up, her hair was messed up, and a few strands of shorter hair were fried, and straight up stick out.

He fumbled to turn on the lights in the room, and then opened the curtains, and the dim street lights outside the house shone in.Xinjiu simply opened the door and walked to the balcony. The early autumn wind was blowing outside, and a cherry blossom tree near the balcony was rustled by the autumn wind.

Across a small half of the courtyard, the lights of the house next door, which has been vacant for a long time, have been lit up, and the noisy sound is coming from inside.

"New wine? Are you woken up too?"

The voice of the landlady Miss Mingmei came from downstairs, Xinjiu lowered his head, just in time to see Mingmei standing in the courtyard with a broom.She smiled at Mingmei, and asked helplessly, "Is the next door under renovation?"

Talking about the noise next door, Ms. Mingmei was dissatisfied: "Yes, it seems that the owner's house is coming back. Really! The renovation in the middle of the night made me so noisy."

Xinjiu sighed and said, "It feels like it will be very lively here in a few months."

The house next door has been occupied since it was renovated, and the second floor has been rented out by Ms. Mingmei to several teachers from a nearby school.Fortunately, I rented a whole floor, and it was the top floor, so it shouldn't be too noisy.

After comforting Miss Mingmei, Xinjiu closed the window, took out his earplugs, and managed to sleep through the night with his ears plugged.

The power of the noise is indeed powerful. The next day Xinjiu got his wish and went to work with two dark circles under his eyes.

"Miss New Wine...have you been up all night?"

Miyoshi's considerate colleague Sakamoto looked at the dark circles under Xin Jiu's eyes and couldn't help but question him.Xinjiu rubbed his temples, and smiled helplessly: "The decoration next door has caused a lot of trouble all night."

"I see."

Sakamoto suddenly realized, and then looked at Xinjiu sympathetically, and pushed his thermos cup towards her: "Would you like some coffee to refresh you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Mu had already opened the door of the office and walked in.He put one hand on Xin Jiu's shoulder, and as the time-reversing ability was activated, Xin Jiu's sleepiness was instantly wiped away!

Qi Mu looked down at her, then walked away with a calm face as if nothing had happened: [During working hours, don't whisper. 】

At this moment, Xinjiu suddenly received a message from another plane—it was sent by the lord.

Xinjiu once left a mark of summoning himself in the palm of the lord, so he was summoned by the lord, and Xinjiu was not surprised at all.She notified 21 to start the transmission, and looked at Sakamoto apologetically: "I'm sorry, Sakamoto-kun. Thank you very much for your coffee...but I suddenly received a request from a person in the plane, and I need to go out to work immediately."

Sakamoto smiled and said, "It's nothing, Miss Xinjiu, let's go to work first."

After the moment of dizziness in the teleportation ended, the scenery in front of Shinshu gradually became clear: it was the courtyard of Ubuyashiki's house.

Standing under the bright sunlight, she was dazed for a while.The next moment, the two girls who were waiting anxiously under the veranda ran over in small steps, held Xinjiu's hand excitedly, and said in unison: "Miss Xinjiu... that's great! You really appeared!"

The new wine was pulled into the room by two young girls, the smell of medicine and various incenses mixed together, she immediately saw the lord who was lying on the tatami with his eyes closed.

The hideous scar spread across his forehead again, almost covering his eyes.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the lord turned his head and looked in the direction where the new wine came in; his eyesight had deteriorated a lot compared to two years ago.

The oppression of the curse caused his physical fitness to decline significantly, and even his eyesight was damaged due to the spread of the curse.

"It's new wine—"

Seeing the girl's familiar black hair and brown eyes, as well as the quiet and peaceful aura around her, the Lord easily recognized her.Xinjiu hurriedly went to sit next to the master, frowned and looked at the curse spread on the other's forehead: "Why did you call me until now?"

too fast.

The speed of the spread of the curse is far faster than the time calculated by big data.

While Xinjiu was talking, she also took out the disperse card she had prepared earlier from her pocket and gave it to the lord. After the dispersal was over, she added two big bonuses to restore the damaged body for the lord.

Seeing that her father's eyes became as bright as before, both Chii and Hikaru couldn't help shedding tears, each hugged one of their father's arms, and sobbed slightly.

When the Lord touched the heads of the two children, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up: "Don't worry, I'm fine now—can you promise me one thing, New Wine?"

He looked up at the new wine with a gentle smile on his face.Xinjiu hesitated and said, "Tell me what it is first."

Xinjiu is still very self-aware. She knows that she is just a manager, not a god in the true sense.

When the Lord smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's nothing embarrassing. I just hope you can help me hide the spread of the curse-you know, those children are very worried about my body. For the sake of killing ghosts, distract them from killing ghosts."

This is really not an embarrassing thing for New Wine.She nodded happily, and added: "I can promise you, but I also hope that you can promise me one thing: the next time the curse spreads, don't delay, call me immediately."

"Anything you ask, I will answer."

When she said this, she looked serious.

The light from outside the window fell on Shinshu's body——suddenly, Yoya Shiki felt that he was really favored by the gods.

"Father, Sato-sama is back."

The screen door was pulled open from the outside, and a girl with short black hair and a white kimono walked in slowly.He noticed the existence of the new wine, and looked at her curiously; just outside the door, Ubuyashiki Teriya also heard that sentence.

Whatever you ask, I will answer.

It's really... an incomparably heartwarming promise.

He also smiled at Xinjiu: "Long time no see, Miss Xinjiu."

Shinshu knows that the Ubuyashiki family has five children, one twin and one triplet.She wasn't sure which of them this girl was, so she had to put on a smile too: "Long time no see."

As if he had read her mind, the boy with the soft wisteria pinned in his ears frowned and smiled slightly: "I am the third son of the Ubayashiki family, Ubayashiki Teriyaki."

New wine: "...!!!"

Wait, third son? ? ?

Just as Shinshu was shocked, Ubuyashiki Teriya had passed her and looked at the lord.The lord smiled and nodded: "Let him in."

After getting permission, Teriya withdrew, and came in with Satu not long after.

Xinjiu turned his head to the side, looking at the young man who walked in behind Huilizai, suddenly felt a sense of unreality.But the reality really put this young man in front of Xinjiu.

Sabito was wearing the uniform of the Demon Slayer Squad, with mid-length hair over his shoulders, and the three-color feathers were draped over the already broad shoulders of an adult, covering the saber at his waist.

Because of the angle, Xinjiu only saw the other side's side face, which happened to be the side without scars: the long-opened young man had a handsome face, with tough and gentle breath in his brows and eyes, and every line was neat and beautiful.

He knelt down on one knee in front of the lord, his long and slightly curly eyelashes drooping: "It's really great to see you in good health."

The lord smiled and raised his hand to signal him to get up: "Don't be so cautious... You have worked hard this time too."

Sato sat down opposite the lord, with a flat and gentle tone: "This is what a man should do."

The lord paused for a moment, then asked again: "Is Mr. Lintaki still in good health?"

"Mr. Rinaki is in good health, please ask me to say hello to you."

Sato took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to the lord: "This is the letter that sir entrusted me to deliver to you."

Teriya stepped forward to accept the letter, and returned to the lord.Kaitu still lowered his eyelashes, and said: "As for the whereabouts of Shangxian Six, Yu Sui and I have locked the approximate location. In about half a month, we can start."

Sixth?

Hearing the unfamiliar words, Shinjiu immediately pricked up his ears, staring intently at Saitu, waiting for his next words; Saitu's hand covered under the haori, rubbed his thumb slightly restlessly over his knuckles.

The lord nodded: "Continue to investigate. If it is confirmed that the other party is the sixth of the string, you will act together with Yu Sui."

"Compared to killing evil spirits, your safety comes first."

Sabito's eyelashes drooped even lower, and he could only see the shadow on the wooden floor in his line of sight.

The air was baked by the sun, giving off a caramel-like sweetness, the shadow of the new wine was lengthened, and the corners of the sleeves overlapped the shadow of the rabbit.

He heard his own voice, as flat and reliable as ever: "Yes."

After exiting the lord's room, Sabito took a deep breath, exhaling a cloudy aroma from his lungs.There was the sound of kicking and tapping footsteps behind him: with such an obvious sound, the other party was obviously a rookie who had never learned breathing techniques.

Sato suddenly felt nervous, raised his hand and rubbed his neck, his heartbeat was slightly unbalanced; could it be new wine?

"Sakura!"

It was a girl's voice, sweet and soft——Sarabbit stiffened his back, and then relaxed again.He looked back sideways and saw Xin Jiu trotting all the way to catch up.

She ran towards herself against the light, her black mid-length hair was swaying behind her head, and the tail of her hair was dyed brilliant golden by the sun's rays.

Sabito felt himself suffocating, and his heart beat instantly out of control.

"You walk so fast..."

Xinjiu trotted up to Satu, propped himself on his knees, and gasped for breath.She raised her head and looked at Satu, and asked, "Just now you mentioned that...the sixth of the string, have you found the information about the sixth?"

Sabito still kept turning his head sideways, staring at Xinshu with silver pupils without blinking.Xinjiu raised her hand and shook it in front of him. After raising her hand, she realized that she couldn't shake Satu's eyes at her height!

Xinjiu was shocked.She looked at her hands, then raised her head and looked at Satu with difficulty: "Sato, you are so tall now... huh?"

Before she could finish her sentence, Saitu bent down and stretched out her arms, hugging Xinshu.He is no longer the embarrassed young man who was chased by the hand ghost.

The 21-year-old Sabito is already a qualified adult in terms of height, physique and appearance.

When he was holding Xinjiu, his head rested between Xinjiu's necks, and his flesh-colored slightly curly mid-length hair rubbed against Xinjiu's cheeks; Xinjiu reacted and raised his hands a little at a loss.

After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively patted him on the shoulder: "Sakura?"

"Feel sorry."

When he spoke, his breath seemed to brush past the soft skin of Xinjiu's neck: "Maybe it's a bit impolite...can I hug you for a while?"

"It will be fine in a while."
