"Is your home here?" Lu Chuanjing asked Xiao Xiamu's hand, bowing his head.

Natsume nodded and responded softly.The monster holding his hand was a little different from the ones he had been in contact with before. His hand was a little cold, but for some reason, it still made him feel a little warm.

Today's Natsume Takashi is only a five or six-year-old child.But because of living in the homes of various relatives for a long time, I am extremely sensitive to other people's emotions, whether it is good intentions or malicious ones.So he can easily judge that this beautiful monster holding his hand can really make him feel warm.

He was a little bit reluctant.

"Go in! We will come to play with you tomorrow." Lvchuan mirror said with a smile.

"Really? Will you come tomorrow?" Natsume suddenly raised his head and asked excitedly, his eyes seemed to be shining.

"Of course." Lvchuan mirror felt a little bitter, this Natsume Takashi who knew from a young age that he was different from other peers.Perhaps more often, just like what they encountered today, they are always alone, lonely and lonely.no friend.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Natsume Reiko at the side.Was it the same in his childhood?

These two people who may have a close relationship can also see monsters, or they may have the same experience.And equally distressing.

Natsume Reiko watched the interaction between the big and the small next to her calmly. The little child had a face that was [-]% similar to her own.The little hand holding Lu Chuan's finger tightly was full of reluctance and attachment.It's really like my childhood self!There are mixed feelings in my heart, and I don't know if the distress that arises is for myself or the child in front of me.

"Okay then, I'll go in first. You must come tomorrow." Natsume turned her head worriedly and warned.

"Don't worry, we will definitely come." Midorikawa mirror smiled, trying to appease the restless little Natsume.

"Then let's pull the hook!" As he was almost at the door, he ran back and stretched out his young fingers.

"it is good."

After Lvchuanjing hooked up with him again, little Natsume reluctantly entered the house.Before leaving, he sneaked a glance at Natsume Reiko, like a young cat, cautiously probing and confirming something.

Watching his figure disappear completely, even the immature "I'm back" came faintly.After a while, Lvchuanjing and the two were ready to turn around and leave.

He couldn't imagine that the warm boy in his memory was so full of anxiety and loneliness when he was young.Maybe that's exactly the case, he has never enjoyed the tenderness and kindness of others, so he hopes that he can bring warmth to others.

"Let's go!" Pulled Natsume Reiko's sleeve.

"Ah."

The two turned and left, disappearing in the shadows.

----

"Lvchuan, you seem to have said...you have seen a person named Takashi Natsume...is this the child?" Natsume Reiko asked hesitantly after turning the fire in front of her.

"Yes." Lu Chuanjing didn't intend to hide it.

"Then when you met him..." To be honest, even he himself would not believe it if he said that this child had nothing to do with him.Therefore, I paid more attention to it.When the two first met, Midorikawa asked if he knew a boy named Takashi Natsume.

"Speaking of it, it was just a coincidence. When I met Natsume, he was already a boy. He is really a gentle person. After that, due to various reasons, I have never met him again until today. Now that I think about it, it might be The intersection of two time and space, and he and I are two people who stepped into this intersection and met in two time and space." Lu Chuanjing smiled, recalling the things of the previous life, like a dream .

Natsume Reiko was silent, he didn't know what kind of mood he was embracing at this time.Or maybe I want to change something, do something for this child...

The only consolation in my heart is that at least that child will be a warm person when he grows up.At least he didn't build up a thick defense because of the indifference of this world and what happened to him.At least he didn't look like himself...

"Maybe we can do something for little Natsume." Midorikawa mirror said suddenly, looking at Natsume Reiko with a heavy face, he seemed to understand what the other party was thinking.And he himself sincerely hopes that through his meager strength, he can leave something different in the project's childhood.

----

"I'm going out." After changing his shoes at the door, Natsume Takashi politely greeted the couple inside and said goodbye.

"Okay, have a good day too." The hostess smiled kindly at him.

"You too."

"It will be here in a few days? Why is there still no call from there?"

"Wait a little longer, if there is no news over there, we will send people there directly..."

Natsume, who just closed the door, faintly heard such a conversation through the gap.His expression darkened in an instant. He had always known that these relatives didn't like him.So he can only continue to circulate among relatives like an item.

But what can I do?The other party had good intentions to take him in, after all, he was a child without father and mother who would see that kind of thing.

"Hi, little Natsume." He was depressed, and suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Luchuan?" He raised his head in surprise.

Standing not far away were the human and demon that I had seen yesterday.

"Are you going to school?" Midorikawa asked.

"Hmm!" Natsume approached and stopped three steps away.This is a distance he considers safe, no matter who he is with.

"Let's go, we'll go with you!" Lu Chuanjing didn't care so much and took a few steps forward.She rubbed the child's soft hair and took his hand.

Feeling the coolness coming from that palm, Natsume Takashi was taken aback for a moment, but he soon came back to his senses.He is greedy for this monster, and he can also feel the kindness of the other party.Don't want to say no.

Natsume Reiko walked behind the two, looked at the big and small figures, and walked forward holding hands.For some reason, my heart softened, as if something I had been looking forward to had suddenly come true.

"Goodbye, Midorikawa, goodbye, Reiko." Walking to the school gate, Natsume waved goodbye to them.

"Goodbye, be good at school today."

"Yes!"

"By the way, can you come to me after school?" Finally asked.

"Of course." Lu Chuanjing frowned and smiled.

Sure enough, after school, Natsume Takashi immediately saw a man and a demon standing at the school gate.Of course, in the eyes of others, there is only one person.

"Natsume, is that your brother?" The classmate beside him asked curiously.

elder brother?This title made Xiao Natsume stunned for a moment, and there was a little sweetness in his heart.

"En!" Nodding heavily, he always felt that he had an inexplicable intimacy with that brother who didn't like to talk.Want to be close, like family.

"Your brother looks similar to you!" Perhaps because he had never seen him before, someone came to pick Natsume Takashi.So the little friends beside him temporarily forgot their usual fear of Xiao Xiamu.They all opened their mouths.

looks like?Hearing this sentence, Natsume Takashi subconsciously looked up at Natsume Reiko not far away.As a young boy, he only felt that the other party was very familiar. Now that he deliberately observed it, he realized that it was indeed the case.Suddenly there is an impulse in my heart, do I, do I still have a relative?

Natsume Reiko approached and took his hand.The other hand took his schoolbag, and naturally led him to turn and leave.Of course, Lvchuan mirror held his other hand.

"Where do you want to go to play today?" Lu Chuanjing asked.

"Well, I heard from my classmates that a very delicious fruit grows in the forest to the north." After thinking about it, Natsume said.

"Okay, then let's pick that fruit today!" Lu Chuanjing agreed with a smile.

In the next few days, the two took Natsume Takashi to all the places he wanted to go.Take him to and from school every day, just like a normal kid.Some people feel distressed and others love.But such carefree days are always short-lived.

"Hey, Eclipse! I finally found you!" During Natsume's school days, Natsume Reiko and Midorikawa mirror were looking for the monster named Eclipse.Decades, hundreds of years are just a blink of an eye for a monster.So they are not worried about whether he will still exist, the question is how to find it.But now that I have finally met her, it is impossible for me to let him go.

"Excuse me, what can I do next?" The solar and lunar eclipse stopped, and it was still the same as before, without any change.Empty eye sockets, lifeless and frightening.

"Why did you forget about us so quickly? You boring monster." Natsume Reiko spoke unceremoniously.

Eclipse thought for a while, and stared at the two for a while.Only then did he suddenly realize, "So it's my benefactor, I didn't expect to meet here." He bowed his body as a salute.

"The time travel is almost over, let's go back." Lu Chuanjing said calmly.

"Of course, after five days, the spell will be dispelled automatically." Eclipse agreed, "I wonder if the two benefactors are satisfied with this great gift?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied." If you ignore the gnashing of teeth in the words.

"It's fine if you're satisfied, then I'll take my leave first." After speaking, the eclipse disappeared.

The two looked at each other, feeling relieved.Finally found a way to go back, it's just...

----

"What's the matter Natsume? It doesn't look happy?" The three of them sat on a bench in the park. Just as Midorikawa Kyou was thinking about how to speak, he found that little Natsume didn't look very happy today.

"I will be sent to Uncle Yuan's house tomorrow." His voice was small, and he couldn't hide his disappointment.

Lu Chuanjing was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that the child next to him had been living with relatives all along.For a moment, he didn't know how to speak. Even though he knew that Natsume was not happy, he couldn't blame those who took him in.

"Where's your family?" It was Natsume Reiko who spoke, and he rarely communicated with the child in front of him.But the inexplicable emotion in my heart kept rolling.

"I have no family."

"No family?"

"Yes, these uncles are all distant relatives of my grandmother Natsume Reiko, so they kindly took me in."

When she said that name, Natsume Reiko seemed to be hit even though she was prepared in her heart.A different kind of emotion rises from the depths of my heart.

"You said, your grandmother's name is Natsume Reiko?"

"Yes." Natsume Takashi nodded, "Everyone says that, Reiko is my grandmother."

How does it feel to suddenly have a grandson?Although I have always liked to wear women's clothing, I didn't expect the misunderstanding to be so big.

So in other words, he will have a daughter?Natsume Reiko looked up at Midorikawa Mirror.He quietly denied it in his heart, no one knew what happened in the decades between this period.But what he is sure and certain of is that the one who will be with him for the rest of his life will only be the person in front of him, and there will be no others.Not to mention any daughter.

However, he did like the child in front of him.

"Do you want a home?"

Natsume Reiko heard herself asking this.

----

"Where are we going?" Little Natsume asked curiously, looking at the constantly receding scenery outside the window.

At that time, when it was learned that he was about to be sent to another relative's house.Natsume Reiko picked him up as an older brother.Based on the two people's similar appearance, and the evidence that he didn't know where he found it.So he confused the other party, and a family that was eager to get rid of Natsume Takashi naturally couldn't be so careful to distinguish the truth from the fake.

"To a new home," he said.

"New home?" Little Natsume was instantly depressed like a deflated ball when he heard these two words.In his consciousness, there is no difference between going to a new home and going to various relatives in the past.he thought...

"What's wrong?" Lu Chuanjing rubbed the top of his hair and asked with concern.

Natsume Takashi shook his head, but did not speak.

Natsume Reiko and Midorikawa Kyou looked at each other, but they didn't know how to comfort them.The two of them will go back after all, so they can only do what they can to find a better place for little Natsume.Avoid the pain of displacement.

After arriving at the destination, the three got out of the car.Along the field path, I arrived in front of a small two-story building.

There was already a couple standing at the door.

"Zi, hello." Natsume Reiko stepped forward and greeted the hostess.I don't know how he did it, but he was able to find the other party after crossing a time and space, and he could make the other party believe what he said.

"Hello... Ling... Zi..." Even though she felt a little unbelievable, when she thought about her childhood, Zi still felt that nothing was impossible.Especially on the person in front of him.

"This is Natsume Takashi." Natsume Reiko brought the little boy forward.

Zi looked down, it was a lovely child.He wanted to reach out and touch his head, but he was dodged. He hugged Natsume Reiko's leg and hid behind.

He was taken aback for a moment, but soon smiled tolerantly.this kid...

"Are you Guizhi?" Tazi squatted down and asked with a gentle smile.She actually likes children very much, but she has never had a child of her own for various reasons.She sometimes comforts herself, even if it's two people with Zi, it's not bad.

But for some reason, the child in front of her made her feel particularly wanting to be close.Even though the wariness in his eyes is obvious, he must be a good boy.Tazi thought.

Xiao Natsume looked at the gentle woman in front of her, and could feel that she was not malicious.And, make him feel comfortable.
