Desperate to meet a dog

Early in the morning, the industrious Lucky Cat opened the door of Jiushijiuan's shop, and slowly swept the leaves on the ground with a broom with a bamboo handle.Suddenly, it caught the visitor's footsteps, raised its ears and looked in the direction of the sound source.

The human who came to the interview yesterday appeared in front of him with a big tengu on his back. If he remembered correctly, that human was called Ogihara Ara.Ah, another Shinto disciple is here too, strange, did they make an appointment?Lucky Cat stopped sweeping the floor and bowed to the two of them: "Morning, meow~ are you here to find the master?"

"Good morning," Huang greeted politely, "We are here to join the job today."

"Oh, have you decided to stay yet?" Lucky Cat's squinted eyes opened, revealing a clear amber color, "That's really great, please come in and wait meow, my friend Let the master know~”

Lucky Cat put down the bamboo broom, wagged its tail and walked into the house humming a tune. It passed through the counter and walked into the Japanese room at the back. After a while, it came back and said to the two of them, "Please come in, meow~ The master is waiting for you."

The tense-looking Huang and the lazy Tong looked at each other, and stood up at the same time.The big tengu lying on Huang's back saw the two humans communicating and interacting without language, and felt sour in his heart unconsciously. Before he could reaffirm his status to Huang, Huang stepped into the Japanese room again with his back on his back. Kneel and sit down.

Even though it was daytime, the room was still like night, with only a few lanterns emitting blue flames as light sources.Under the dim light, Qing Xingdeng was still lying on her side on the mat, but judging from the patterns on the corners, the mat under her had been replaced.

After Qing Xingdeng nodded to the two humans, his eyes fell on the big tengu, and he showed a meaningful smile.Big Tengu shuddered and became anxious: Oops, Qing Xingdeng probably has seen the karma left by him and knows the tricks he played. Today's entry...can it go smoothly?

After appreciating the bewildered expression of Datengu, Qing Xingdeng cleared his throat and said, "Both of you are here, it really makes Jiushijiuan shine. How about it, have you decided?"

Huang took a deep breath, bowed down solemnly to Qing Xingdeng and said: "I am willing to keep my job."

Tong, who was sitting cross-legged on the side, also added: "Ah, there is me."

Qing Xingdeng glanced at Tong in surprise, and asked, "You want to stay too? But I don't need so many helpers."

Tong rascal said: "Anyway, you don't have to pay a salary, and you don't suffer from having one more person, right?"

Hearing this sentence, Huang turned his head in surprise: "Hey, no salary?"

"Do you still expect monsters to pay you in cash in the monster world?" Tong retorted bluntly, "Besides, you live a worry-free life now, and you can provide food, clothing and monster mansions. Why do you need money?"

"But I always have to go back to the world to do business. It's impossible to have no savings, right?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I will provide all the travel expenses," Qing Xingdeng added, "As for the remuneration... the monster world is not happy to pay the currency used by humans, but I will pay you the ghost fire, this kind of ghost fire can be used in the monster world You can exchange for what you want at your pawn shop, which is generally not available in the world.”

Qing Xingdeng reached out and handed Huang a seemingly ordinary blue wristband, indicating to Huang to tie it on his arm.After Huang did so, the wristband automatically fit the thickness of his arm and tightened. Soon, a little blue flame burned leisurely on the wristband, and Huang reached out to touch it. There was no temperature and it was safe.After a while, the flame disappeared, and a faint "1" appeared on the wristband.

Qing Xingdeng explained: "This is your salary slip, and it is also a prop for storing will-o'-the-wisps. The number will change in the future. It is waterproof and fireproof, and has no weight. Please use it with confidence."

"I understand." Huang digested the information provided by Qing Xingdeng, trying to equate the will-o'-the-wisps he saw with currency, but it may take time to adapt to this change.

Qing Xingdeng gave Huang the "salary slip", and turned to Tong and asked, "Abe-kun, according to what you just said, are you willing to stay and help, and don't want any salary?"

Tong still looked lazy, and said: "Yes, I don't have to worry about food and drink, and I don't have anything I want to exchange in the demon world. I'm just worried that my human friend will make mistakes in work, so I plan to stay and guide him. , you just treat me as his follower."

One big tengu is not enough, do we need to add a Shinto disciple?Qing Xingdeng raised his eyebrows, showing a happy smile, Jiushijiuan will be lively in the future.

Seeing that Qing Xingdeng pursed his lips and smiled without any intention of speaking, Huang, who had just arrived, felt a little nervous. He realized that the battle for his entry into the job was a bit big. Will the lamp regret it in a fit of anger?

Huang thought about it, couldn't help but tugged at the big tengu, and glanced at Tong again, and was about to discuss countermeasures with them quietly, when Qing Xingdeng's voice sounded: "It's really helpless, that's the only way to go."

Datengu and Tong showed joy at the same time, but Huang was stunned for a while, and asked in disbelief: "You agree?"

Qing Xingdeng nodded: "Of course, it's my honor to work with Daitengu, please give me your advice in the future."

The big tengu who was named grinned, fiddled with the round fan in his hand and pretended to answer: "Hehe, each other."

The two monsters showed bright smiles at the same time, and Huang's heart was terrified. These two monsters seemed to have Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, plus Abetong who had other plans... How will this work be carried out in the future.

Huang Youyou sighed, at this moment, his brand new life started.

After signing the employment contract with Qing Xingdeng, the Lucky Cat appeared outside the Japanese room at the right time, and said respectfully: "Three, please come with me, I will show you around."

Qing Xingdeng also said: "Go, follow the beckoning cat to visit Jiushijiuan, it is an old employee here, and it will tell you the rules and so on."

Huang nodded and exited the Japanese room, Ootengu and Tong followed behind him, they didn't show much respect to Qing Xingdeng, they really looked like two followers with Huang as the center.

The beckoning cat walked ahead, with its front paws tucked into its sleeves, and the pads of its hind legs stomping on the floor without making a sound.

It introduced as it walked: "Everyone, please meow~ There are two connected Japanese rooms here, and the one to the north is the accounting room, which stores past transaction records, but the owner is afraid of trouble meow~ Many ancient records have been taken care of by her. I don’t know where I lost it, meow... Ah, this one to the south is a tea room, and some refreshments are prepared here, meow~”

After introducing the purpose of the remaining two rooms on the first floor, Lucky Cat took them to look at the courtyard again.Compared with the huge courtyard of the monster mansion, the scale here is much smaller, but its features are very obvious. Whether it is a rockery, a pond, or flowers, they all glow with peacock blue light like their owners.

Lucky Cat made a spread of meat pads, led them up to the second floor, and continued: "There are six rooms on the second floor, one is my bedroom meow~ and the other is the owner's bedroom, and the rest are guest bedrooms. If you want to stay, you can stay, no problem meow."

"I won't stay." Without waiting for Huang's answer, Big Tengu declined Lucky Cat's offer, "There is no kitchen or bathroom here."

The beckoning cat "meowed" and scratched its ears and said, "Never mind meow~ I completely forgot about it, you two are human beings and need to eat and take a bath meow~"

Huang waved his hands and said indifferently, "It's okay, we'll just rush over from the monster's mansion as we do today."

"Meow~ I'm really sorry, I forgot your needs, but please don't worry meow~ In case I need to work overtime in the future, I can introduce you to bathhouses and izakayas that are open to humans meow~"

"I'll talk about this kind of thing later," Tong interrupted Lucky Cat, "You haven't told us where the products are."

Lucky Cat paused for a moment, and retorted bluntly: "About the merchandise... I'm sorry, I can only bring Ogiwara-kun there alone meow~ After all, he is the only one who signed the contract with the owner."

Tong frowned and had to accept this statement.The Big Tengu shook its wings unhappily, resisted the urge to slap the Lucky Cat, and pretended to be magnanimous and said: "Since this is the case, there is no other way, you go, come back and pick me up soon after you finish watching. "

"Understood, then I'm leaving." Huang rubbed the head of the big tengu, turned around and walked downstairs with the beckoning cat.

As soon as Huang's figure disappeared, the big tengu who had a calm face just now started pacing back and forth as if he had lost his soul. He lay down on the paper door a few times trying to follow, but gritted his teeth a few times and retreated.Tong stood aside, watching his extremely tangled performance, and said amusedly: "Hey, he only left for a minute."

"……Humph!"

The two people who were not at odds stared blankly for a while, when there was a sound from the stairs, the big tengu rushed out immediately upon hearing the sound, and threw itself into Huang's arms without any mistake.Huang rubbed his head helplessly and said: "This is not a monster's mansion, don't just fly around in the future, you know?"

Before Huang finished speaking, Tong also came over and asked sharply: "Hey, Ogihara, what's down there?"

Huang's expression was empty for a while, and he tilted his head in confusion. He was silent for a long time, and said uncertainly: "Sorry, I... have no impression of what I just saw."
