☆, 33.

33. Camphor tree, huge tree hole

For them, summer vacation seems to be a very happy thing.I bit the marshmallow and watched Natsume, who was invited out to play again, go out from the house, and I huddled in his room and watched by myself.

After returning from the beach, I had no place to live, so Natsume took me to find Aunt Toko.After a series of lies and the truth, Aunt Tazi successfully treated me as a child of a relative who didn't know where I came from.

Originally, she was going to call that non-existent relative, but I thought about it and reported Yonezawa's number, believing that guy would handle it well for me.

Then Uncle Yonezawa called me and said that it was really useless for me to ask him for help. I said that in the black basket, you are also just a theatergoer, so what can you say.

In short, it was a verbal battle on the phone, and of course he won in the end. He is a member of the law, and he has lived for a long time and has seen a lot.It's a matter of talking to a human being like me because I'm just a toy.

"Little girl, aren't you going out to play?" Mr. Cat scratched his cheek, with a bottle of sake and a small plate beside him.

This guy is drinking again? "You know how old I am, and it's no fun to run out. And don't you go protect Natsume today? Doesn't it matter if your friend account is robbed?" Originally, I wanted to talk about his drinking, but he smoked It seems that I have no right to criticize others.

"Well, it's tiring to be a bodyguard all the time. I'm on vacation." He held a plate of wine with a look of enjoyment on his face.

I glanced at the alcohol level of the wine.That's a bit high for sake. "Aren't you usually on vacation all the time? It means that Natsume is only in danger when you are in danger." Usually, he is a greedy fat cat.

"What? Don't look at me like this, I have been a good bodyguard!"

"But all I see is a fat cat."

"Who gets fat, who gets fat, sir, this is called plump, do you understand plump?"

"..." Isn't this the reaction of ordinary girls when they are called fat?Is this cat really okay?

In summer, it's so hot.

"Natsume." I looked up at Natsume who was standing next to me, "Don't you feel very hot?"

He was carrying a large bag of things, and was walking towards home with difficulty.

For a thin boy like him, this thing seems a bit heavy.I looked at the things he was holding. It seemed that there were cutting boards, small garden shovels, and all kinds of food and other things, which looked very heavy.And it was still summer, and Natsume's face was already sweating.

"It's not too..." He tried to move his steps.

Ahhh, it feels so pathetic.

With my feet on tiptoe, I took all the things he was holding, ran two steps ahead of him, and looked back at him: "According to your speed, I don't know what to do before I can go back. Aunt Tazi will be worried .”

He looked at me in a daze, holding things and running forward with small jumps. He didn't know whether he was lamenting the gap between people, or the gap between humans and non-humans.

"Well, as expected, I'd better take some." He stretched out his hand, as if preparing to take a part from me.

Shaking his head and trotting forward, "This weight is very simple for me, but Natsume, you are just an ordinary human being." Turning to look at him, "It's better not to force it."

But feeling like I was hurting his masculinity by doing this, I stopped, waited for him to come forward, and took a part out of the thing. "Take it."

"Huh?" What he said next, actually didn't weigh too much.Looking at me slightly in shock, I shook my head, didn't speak, just kept walking.

She still has to go out to buy so many things in this hot afternoon, if Natsume hadn't stopped her, Aunt Tako might have collapsed on the way back.After all, the weather is so hot, there is no way, and this is still not the hottest time.

I really don't know how long this weather will last.

"Hey, the fifth day of the lunar new year." While walking, Natsume suddenly said.

"What's wrong?" I kept looking at the road ahead.

"Are you a monster or a human? Ah, sorry, it's impolite to ask."

"No, I'm still human, but my body is stronger than ordinary humans, and my actual mental age doesn't match my body."

"incompatible?"

"To put it simply, it's similar to reincarnation." I said with a serious face, "Because this body dies, I also die at the same time. Then after certain special means, I can live again in this body. It sounds like sorcery, but I've lived on it for more than ten years."

"When the child was a baby?"

"No, there are other dead people. In fact, it is not necessary for the original owner of the body to die, as long as her consciousness is unconscious. There is no way to live..." I paused, "and this reincarnation technique also Not what I hoped for, I was forced to reincarnate."

"..." He was silent again.

Then, no more words were spoken.

"Natsume-kun?" I heard someone calling Natsume's name from behind, and Natsume and I looked back together.

A young man wearing a brown hat and a long windbreaker stood there, probably around 25 or six.He wears glasses, has brownish hair and pupil color, and looks familiar to Natsume.

Ah, I remember that there seems to be such a number one character. Unfortunately, my impression of this film only stays on one person, one cat, and the name, and the rest is completely out of memory.

"Mr. Natori?" Natsume was also a little surprised.

I pulled Natsume's clothes, "Who?"

The visitor pretended to be shocked: "Are there still people who don't know me?"

Natsume quickly said: "This child belongs to a relative, and the family is usually very strict, so..."

"I seem to have seen this guy on the TV on the side of the road," I recalled what I saw when I was shopping. "It seems that he has a stupid face and can develop well in the entertainment industry. Why is this kind of guy? People will know Natsume?"

"Stupid, stupid face?"

"Sorry, it seems to me that many people have stupid faces."

"Including Natsume-kun?"

"No, he's a good man."

"..." Natsume seemed to have been issued a good person card.

"Well, let's gossip here," Natori corrected his attitude and straightened his hat, "I came to you this time mainly to help me, of course, Natsume-kun, I will definitely pay for your part-time labor .”

Natsume interjected at this time, "Mr. Natori and I met by accident. But what's going on this time?" The latter sentence was addressed to Natori.

But my focus is entirely on day wages. "As long as it's not too difficult, you can take me there. Of course, you must pay."

Natori glanced at me, and began to talk to Natsume self-consciously: "It's actually like this. There is a big camphor tree on the mountain to the south, right? I heard that a child disappeared there a while ago, so I went to investigate All of a sudden, I found something I couldn’t wait for.”

Hey, don't ignore me.

"There seems to be a very powerful energy there, but it's not demon power. It's even strange that as long as the demon masters get close to the camphor tree, they will get lost, and when they wake up, they will be at the foot of the mountain. Although many experiments, it seems Only minors can get closer."

"Hey, that's why you found me?"

"Of course, after all, you seem to be the only underage I know with strong demon power."

Being ignored, I said that Natori would definitely regret it.

In fact, I did. I drove the STK skill, went around his back, and kicked him hard in the back.

"Kacha." Very good, the photo of Natori throwing Natsume down has been obtained.Finally, my wish was fulfilled.

On a day when everyone is fine, but the weather is not too hot, I set off with Natsume (strikethrough), Natori and Neko-sensei (strikethrough).

But when I arrived at the destination, I realized that the camphor tree is really big. From the foot of the mountain, it is estimated that there is a canopy with a radius of 20 meters. Wouldn’t it be true to kneel down on the spot?

"Natsume-kun, is it really okay to bring that child?" Natori looked at me and quietly asked Natsume.

"Uh...no problem, isn't it that you want a child?" Natsume smiled dryly.

"But does she really have demon powers? Or is it simply for fun?" Natori wondered.

"Don't worry, it's okay to leave this kind of thing to the girl alone." Cat teacher was held in Natsume's arms, trying to forget the weakness of his short legs.

I was running ahead and waved to them, "You guys are so slow, can you hurry up?"

Natori glanced at Natsume who was holding the fat cat, and said, "Why don't you let it go?"

Teacher Cat started to wriggle instantly, "Okay, okay, I can almost put it down." Then he jumped to the ground and ran towards me quickly.

"I'm coming, you bastard girl!"

"Ah, Fat Cat has short legs but it runs so fast! I have to work harder."

"Hmph, you can't outrun my uncle."

"Why do you think the cat is running faster and faster... I will never allow such a thing as losing to the cat or losing to the fat cat!"

"Who are you talking about fat cats?!"

"It's you, it's you~"

Then there was the bickering and running time between me and Fat Cat.In short, when we climbed halfway up the mountain, it was less than half an hour from the time we were at the foot of the mountain, which shows how fast our feet are.

It's a pity that we both lay down on the ground and pretended to be grandchildren, and we didn't think about those thoughts at all.

No way, a [-]-year-old, a short-legged fat cat, who can stand this kind of exercise?

In addition, the wound feels a little painful, tsk tsk.

"Slow down, you two..." The two people who ran up after 5 minutes were also out of breath.

I sat up from the ground, "It's so noisy, since you're going to play, hurry up." Then I turned around and continued running to the top of the mountain.

"Little girl, wait for me!" Teacher Cat's voice came from behind, and he ran beside me again after a while.

Natori, who was watching from behind, asked Natsume, "Are you really sure that little girl is useful?"

Natsume smiled and said, "This... I don't really know."

"..."

Forget it, whatever is fine.

When I got to the top of the mountain, I finally knew why the children disappeared.

"Wow!" I yelled towards the huge tree hole in front of me, and the echo kept coming, and I couldn't hear it clearly after about [-] seconds.

There is a very large tree hole in the trunk of this huge camphor tree, which is connected to the ground. The height of the hole is about [-] centimeters, which is very suitable for children.

"Tree hole?" Because he came in with the child, Natori also saw the huge tree hole.

"Does the camphor tree have any special meaning?" Natsume wanted to walk in and have a look.

"Mortal? In China, it is considered a symbol of evil spirits, longevity, and good luck. I don't remember it very clearly." I still remember the stack of books given by Bai Lan, am I already sick?

Teacher Cat scratched his face, "Well, anyway, the problem must be in this tree hole, then go down and see if it's all right."

Then everyone looked at Natori.

"Eh? Why are you looking at me?" Natori looked innocent.

Natsume said: "It seems that Mr. Natori is the only one who has the ability to take everyone down."

I looked innocent: "Could it be that your lord hasn't even thought about this kind of unexpected thing?" Please forgive my malice and cuteness.

Teacher Cat laughed beside him.

Natori = Demon Eliminator = Adult = Zhou Yi said that the pressure is great at this time.

"Huh..." A gust of wind blew.

"Ah." Then I, who was closest to the tree hole door, fell down unfortunately.

Before the three had time to react, I couldn't see them at all.

Oh my god, that would be such sad news if he fell to his death.
