[Comprehensive Manga] In Shimosakamoto

According to Sakamoto's age, Shigeru Fujiwara arranged for him to attend an elementary school nearby.

Although when Shigeru Fujiwara told Sakamoto of this decision, a trace of stiffness quickly crossed his Baozi face.

When Aunt Toko learned that Shigeru Fujiwara was going to send him to elementary school, she clapped her hands in agreement, and happily prepared various clothes and school supplies for Sakamoto.

The moment she held Sakamoto's little hand, she finally realized what satisfaction is.

In the future, I can send him to and from school. Sure enough, younger children are more likely to accept her care.

That child Natsume, alas...

I hope he can also open up to himself like Sakamoto.

We are all family after all.

The days passed like this, Sakamoto and Natsume slept in the same room, although they were not in the same bed.

One day when he came back from school, Sakamoto, who was carrying a schoolbag, felt a breeze blowing across his face, and the familiar feeling surged from the bottom of his heart again.

"That's—" Natsume who picked up a beckoning cat found traces of youkai around Sakamoto again.

"It's a monster. It seems to be very familiar with that child." The face of the beckoning cat has a strange pattern, and the half-crescent eyes have a funny expression even if they don't smile, giving people the impression that everything is going well. The illusion within his grasp.

"Are people familiar with monsters?" Natsume was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, but seemed to have thought of something, lowered his head again, and stopped talking.

"Isn't Reiko a proof? Whether it's a one-time encounter or a few encounters, you got the name of a monster. Your grandmother Reiko is really a very powerful person." Lucky Cat's fat body is round like A ball with short limbs scrambling around, as if trying to prove his words with actions.

"Well, what you said seems to be a little bit right, Mr. Cat."

"What is appearance?! If Reiko died later, her friend account could not be that small! You have to remember, after you die, that friend account will be mine." Lucky Cat wriggled its chubby There is a little pride in the body and words.

"Understood." Natsume hugged him who was a little heavy, his thin arms were slightly sore, he had never seen any cat eat so much, he had been sealed for so many years, and he had never eaten, and he was so fat, Mr. Cat, Really great.

In the evening, Natsume introduced the cat he picked up by chance to Aunt Toko, Shigeru and Sakamoto.

"Pfft, this cat is ugly and cute." Tazi looked at it up and down, slightly bent the corners of his mouth, and stroked its soft short fur with his hands.

"Ah."

"Ah."

Shizuka and Sakamoto, who were in charge of taciturnity, echoed Toko's words.

You are ugly!

It is the nobleman among monsters! ! !

It's not like ordinary little monsters can compare to it, but even say it's ugly, I want to eat you!

As he said that, he rushed over like a cannonball with his fat little body, and at the moment when he was about to reveal his original form, he was attacked by Natsume's Face Breaking Fist.

That's fine, nothing happened.

Mr. Cat had two small bags on his head, and he was eating the same food as them with a bit of bitterness.

Damn human, just wait, how to torture him after he dies.

In the room, Natsume and Sakamoto were kneeling and writing their homework.

Sakamoto wrote very quickly. Through Natsume's perspective, he only found his pen flying on the notebook, and he didn't see where his hand was at all!It's unbelievable, moreover, he doesn't need to support it with his hands when reading a book, he just needs to stare at the book, and the book will have its own page-turning function.

The speed of the flipping made him click his tongue involuntarily.

It was as if some force was manipulating all of this.

That's right, when the monster appeared behind Sakamoto more and more clearly, he discovered that the monster should be the factor that created Sakamoto's magic.

It was she who was turning the pages!

Natsume moved back a little in surprise, and Teacher Cat also looked calm, looking thoughtfully at the uninvited female monster.

"What's the matter?" Sakamoto raised his head from the book, glanced at him suspiciously, and saw that his complexion turned pale, and his lips turned white as well, as if he had been hit by some kind of shock. The expression so tense that he couldn't breathe made Sakamoto couldn't help but move his little hand. Landing on his forehead, "No fever!"

Teacher Cat smiled without saying a word, nestling on the made bed, watching the two of them.

The female monster seemed to have predicted that she would be discovered by Reiko, no, her current grandson sooner or later.

She too had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"You can see me!"

"--um, yes."

This is the first face-to-face conversation between the female monster and Natsume.

"Can you give me back my name?" The female monster looked at Sakamoto who was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night. Although she couldn't see her expression, she was sure that she must be smiling.

"Do you know Reiko?" Mr. Cat wiped his mouth with his paw, and said slowly.

After listening to the conversation between the two monsters, Natsume's warm brown pupils dilated slightly. So, she was a monster who had a relationship with grandma, so why didn't she look for him at first, but stayed with Sakamoto instead?

The female monster seemed to know what he was thinking, she slowly squatted down, her slender fingers ran through Sakamoto's black hair, and a light laughter came from her mouth, "Hey, I think I am very lucky. One is that I met Natsume Reiko, your grandmother, and the other is that I met Sakamoto. I feel very lucky that a monster can meet two human beings who have a heart-to-heart friendship." At the end of her words, the lucky two The word is emphasized again.

"Where are you going after I return your name?"

Having given other monsters names, he knew very well that all the monsters would invariably choose to return to their original places, because most of them had no nostalgia, and it was Grandma Reiko, not him, who really had an intersection with them.

In the memory of the monsters, he saw that graceful girl—Natsume Reiko.

That was his memory of his grandmother.

Although he will reunite with his grandmother again in his memory when he returned the name to the female monster, but...

Will Sakamoto, who doesn't know anything, feel sad because of the departure of a good friend?

Although he hadn't felt her presence before.

The female monster's hands trembled, and the laughter stopped immediately, "Where are you going?" She bit the three words lightly, with hesitation and reluctance in her voice.

It's been a long time topic... She lowered her head and looked at the young boy's white and tender face under the light, the touch of her hands warmed her heart.Ever since I met Sakamoto in the turbulence of time.

Her ordinary daily life slowly becomes exciting and rich.

She met many strange humans and saw scenery that other monsters have never seen.

Sakamoto he——

He is the gentlest person she has ever met in her demon life.

but……

Meeting is the beginning of parting,

She wanted to leave him.

She wants to go back to her original place, to have a look, maybe she will be lucky enough to meet a like-minded monster, and maybe she will be alone for a long time.

"Hey... Natsume, give me back my name."

She stood up slowly, walked in front of him, and said to the handsome and clean boy in front of her.

The account of friends turned to the page with her name on it.

--cherry

It's her name, a flower demon born in the cherry blossom season.

Sakura is the most beautiful flower demon, and many monsters like her.

Because of her beauty and the praise of others, she has her own little pride. Slowly, she becomes domineering and does not take other monsters seriously. Gradually, surrounded by monsters, she loses her playmates and friends.

"Why did they all abandon me!" Sakura hid on the branches of cherry blossoms sobbing.

"Because you are so proud." Under the cherry tree, a girl in school uniform looked up at her.

Sakura rubbed her fingers and listened, her red eyes stared blankly at the human girl below, "No——I'm not proud, they said I was beautiful, it was they who said good-looking people lost their temper It can be tolerated." Sakura's accusation was sharp and sad, and she didn't understand why people who kept saying this would leave because of what they said.

"Can looks be eaten?"

"..."

The girl brushed her waist-length hair, with a little helplessness on her beautiful face, she sighed, "I said that because I like you, if you don't like you, do you think what they said and the vows they made Will it still be credible?"

"..." Sakura looked sullen, her nose, which had become a little red from crying, twitched, and her pretty face vaguely revealed a somewhat pitiful posture. "Why don't they like me anymore, even though I'm so beautiful? Woooooo..."

"Can looks be eaten?!" The girl pinched her waist with her hands and repeated her previous words again.

"..." Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Every day, the girl would pass by her cherry tree.

Sakura will quietly hide in the flowers and watch her,

You will hear the girl's chuckle, and you will see the beautiful picture of her long hair being blown by the wind. The proud Sakura silently marks her as "the most beautiful among human beings".

"Hey~ Do you want to have a game?" The girl stopped under her cherry tree again, raised her eyes, and looked at the girl who was inexplicably embarrassed and hurried because of her gaze.

"..." Sakura poked her head out from among the flowers, her pink eyes looked at her suspiciously without blinking.

"You lost~" The girl covered her stone with the cloth in her hand, "Hey, can you tell me your name?"

"Sakura." Sakura hesitated, but still told the girl in front of her.

"Sakura? What a beautiful name..." The girl raised her head and looked at the lush cherry trees decorated with cherry blossoms. "Hey, my name is Reiko...Natsume Reiko."
