[Comprehensive] You see, this pot is big and round
Chapter 18 Expectation
The cake that Suzuka gave Dayake Maru was a small piece, maybe not even one-eighth of the whole cake.He painstakingly cut it for a while, but when he really started to eat it, it was gone after three or two bites.
The sweetness still remained between the lips and teeth, but the plate was empty.Otakemaru stared at the crumbs on the plate, and wanted to ask Suzuka for some more in disappointment.
But as a dignified ghost king, he really couldn't open his mouth.
"Hey, did you finish eating so quickly?" Suzuka stretched out his hand, "Give me the plate, I'll take it down later."
"Oh……"
Reluctantly, Otake Maru handed the plate to Suzuka.
The moment the plate was out of his hands, he felt an unprecedented emptiness—he seemed to be a little hungry.
Fortunately, his stomach was strong and he didn't growl at this time, otherwise his image in front of Suzuka would collapse to nothing.
cake... cake...
Da Yuemaru shook his head, trying to throw out his desire for cake, trying not to let his thoughts wander into hunger.
"Hey..."
Suzuka suddenly made a sound.
Dayake Maru sat up straight: "Huh?"
"About what you said before, the matter of whether you are the champion or not, I actually thought about it." She pursed her lips, as if showing a smile, "But I didn't think about it very seriously, I just thought about it casually .”
"What did you come up with?"
Suzuka was silent for a while, and kept stroking the edge of the plate with her fingertips. Otakemaru guessed that she might be a little nervous, or she might have regretted it, and didn't want to continue talking.
He moved his position, sat down a little, and then fell back casually, lying on the roof, staring at the gradually darkening sky.
He didn't really want to know whether he won the championship or not.He wanted to say to Suzuka something like "it's okay if you don't want to say it", but before he could say it, Suzuka had already continued.
"I think……"
She could hear her taking a deep breath.
"I think, I may not want to win the championship that much-not so much that I don't want to, it's better to say that I don't have the ability to be a champion. In this school, there are many good students, and I just passed the entrance exam. It’s just getting good grades, and that’s not something to be commended for.”
"Oh--?"
Otakemaru's voice was drawn out and very lazy, but this attitude relieved Suzuka's uneasiness a bit.
"Thinking about it carefully, I vowed before that I must win the championship, maybe because I want to echo the expectations of others."
"I feel it." He still said in a very lazy tone, "Your uncle seems to be a very famous hero, right? You can hear people talking about him on the road."
"Yes, he used to be the number one ranked S-class hero."
Every time she talked about Yagihara's past honors, she would feel extremely proud, as if all of these were her achievements, and even the ending sound was dyed with bright colors.
"He put pressure on you?"
"certainly not!"
Afraid of making a misunderstanding, Suzuka hastily denied it, but after denying it, fell silent again.Otakemaru cast a sideways glance at her, wanting to know where her silence came from, but accidentally caught a trace of sadness in her eyes.
"Whether it is Uncle Yuan or my parents, they have never put any pressure on me, nor have they set any strict requirements on me. They will not stipulate that I must be such and such a person. They hope I choose the path I want. Even so, I still carry expectations—the expectations of the public.
"Because I am Yagihara's niece, everyone will naturally feel that I must do something. Even if I can't reach his height, I must be better than others. Especially after Uncle Hara retires, there are more voices to look forward to. "
——With such a powerful ability, he must be able to become an outstanding hero!
——Although she is always talking about it, she is Yagihara's niece after all.
——It is indeed very powerful now, but I don’t know what it will become when I grow up.
"I listened to their expectations and drew a cage for myself."
"They have nothing to do with you."
Still in a nonchalant tone.When Otakemaru spoke, the ending sound was drawn out and scattered in the evening wind.
"You have placed meaningless expectations on you by talking to yourself, so you must have the need to care?"
He said with a bit of disgust.But I don't know whether it is Suzuka who dislikes too indecisive, or those other people who "talk to themselves".
Straightforward, mercilessly cutting to the point, his words made Suzuka a little bit ashamed.She looked around pretending to be bored, but in fact she was so flustered that she didn't know what to say.
After holding back for a long time, she said slowly, "But..."
"No but."
Otakemaru cut her off decisively.She still wanted to defend herself, but Otakemaru cast a resolute look, she couldn't say anything, and nodded in a muffled voice.
She knew in her heart that Otakemaru's words were not unreasonable - they just sounded a little rough.
Dayake Maru, who was thinking wildly, suddenly thought of a terrible thing.He sat up abruptly and stared at Suzuka with burning eyes.
"What are you going to be... a hero... Could it be that you did it because someone told you to be a hero!"
"No!" She answered decisively, and patted her chest in a vow, "I really want to be a hero! I want to be as powerful as Uncle Yuan!"
Otakemaru stared at her for a while, convinced that the belief in her eyes was not a fake, he felt relieved, and lay back down again.
His posture looked really comfortable, and Suzuka was eager to try it.
Following Otakemaru's appearance, she lay down on the roof, but after only staying for a second, she couldn't wait to sit up.
"No, no, no...the clothes will get dirty..."
she muttered.
Not only will it be dirty, but the hard tiles are not comfortable at all, causing her back to hurt. I don't know how Dayake Maru managed to be so leisurely.
Maybe it's because of the rough skin and thick flesh, she thought.
Otakemaru spotted a cloud of dust on her back, but he didn't seem to notice it.He quietly helped her take it off.
"Honestly, your era makes me feel very strange. You actually treat heroes as a profession in a fair and honest way." He curled his lips.
"Really? I don't think it's strange, maybe it's because I was born in this era." Suzuka said with a smile, "Roles like heroes exist all the time. In the Heian era, onmyoji should be regarded as The representative of the hero's position; there were righteous ronin samurai in the Warring States Period. There will never be a shortage of heroes, but now, those who enforce justice have come to the sun for everyone to see. I don't think this is a bad thing."
He listened carefully, and responded with a muffled "Oh". It sounded like he still couldn't agree, but he didn't say anything more.
After eating the cake, the three Kamaitachi brothers also climbed up to the roof with their short legs and ran towards Suzuka. They rested their chins on her lap presumptuously, blinked their small eyes, and asked expectantly. : "Did you guys talk about something interesting just now!"
They watched these two people stay on the roof for a long time. If they were not talking about interesting things, how could they stay for so long.
"Nothing, very boring content."
"Oh……"
The interest of the three brothers disappeared in an instant, but they were not willing to get off Suzuka's lap.
Otakemaru sat up again.His sudden approach frightened the three brothers, they obediently moved aside, sat in a row, and peeked at Otakemaru very cautiously.
Looking at Dayakemaru's heavy expression, they always felt that he was going to rush over to beat someone in the next second.
Dayue Maru hammered his thighs, and they trembled in fright.
"Time to get down to business," he said, "about Tamamo-mae."
"You say you say."
"First of all, we need to make sure of one thing." Da Yuemaru held his chin in one hand, looking very serious, "The Tamamo-zen who appears here now, is it the Tamamo-zen of the past, or the Tamamo-zen of the present... Do you know what I mean? ?”
"I understand, I understand." Suzuka nodded vigorously, "You just want to determine whether the nature of the Tamamo-mae we are looking for was brought here by the reverse flow of time like you, or it was natural from the time of birth. Lived to this age, right?"
"……right……"
Damn, she explained it more clearly!
Dayake Maru was a bit unconvinced.
But this question is really important.This determines how powerful the Tamamo front they need to face will be.Although neither of them has touched the details of Yu Zaoqian, and they don't know how deep it is, but at least, they still have to count.
Dayakemaru secretly hoped that what they were looking for was the "Tamamo-mae of the past", so that they should still have the confidence to fight.But if it's the "current Tamamo-mae"...
He probably couldn't stand the old monster who had lived more than 1000 years longer than him.
Suzuka took out his mobile phone, entered keywords, and quickly browsed through several legends, feeling a little better in his mind.
"In the ending before Yuzao, some were sealed and some died, but it seems that none of them survived." As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing, and said with great joy, "This means..."
"I've heard from other yokai about the possibility that he's still alive."
Otakemaru poured a ladle of cold water, Suzuka felt bad all over, put away the phone angrily, and tried hard to control the mood of giving him a glance.
"Then you still ask me..."
"Because I want to hear your opinion." Otakemaru said seriously, "Besides, it's your turn to work at night, so I need to explain the current situation to you clearly."
"Good good..."
I always feel that what he says makes sense.
Having said that, they suddenly fell silent and fell into a dead end.No one said anything, because no one knew what to say.
After a while, Suzuka asked tentatively: "Otherwise, let's not consider this factor at all, how about it?" She quietly encouraged, imitating Minamoto Raimitsu and whispering demons to Otakemaru, "Anyway We don't need to confront him, just collect some clues about his whereabouts and complete the mission. Don't you think so?"
What she said made sense, but it seemed that he was thinking too much.Dayake Maru weighed it up, and felt that this suggestion was better.
The lobbying was successful, Suzuka's smile added a hint of complacency.She stood up, held the plate in her arms, and walked slowly to the escalator.Before going downstairs, she did not forget to give Dayake Maru a super confident thumbs up.
"Now it's my turn to get to work!"
Dayakemaru waved her hand and sent her to leave quickly, but he remained on the roof, meditating alone.
Hmm...he still really wants to eat cake.
The author has something to say:
Big fish balls can’t even stand up to Brother Zao’s hazy car, so don’t try to stand up to Brother Zao himself.
Brother Zao’s new skin makes me sad, krypton gold doesn’t matter, the main reason is that he really did it too seriously, I feel that Brother Zao has become a cash cow for ch 1551
The sweetness still remained between the lips and teeth, but the plate was empty.Otakemaru stared at the crumbs on the plate, and wanted to ask Suzuka for some more in disappointment.
But as a dignified ghost king, he really couldn't open his mouth.
"Hey, did you finish eating so quickly?" Suzuka stretched out his hand, "Give me the plate, I'll take it down later."
