"What is the Jade of the Four Souls?" Xia Mu expressed the question in his heart on behalf of others.

Teacher Cat sat down, squinted his funny eyes, and looked into the distance: "I have only heard its name in legends. According to legend, this is a great witch and an evil monster hundreds of years ago. After the decisive battle, the existence formed by the fusion of the souls of the two is said to be able to endow monsters with powerful power, no wonder I feel the pure spiritual power and heterogeneous demon power from you at the same time, it seems to be its effect."

"Those little monsters are more likely to be lured here by the Jade of the Four Souls because they have no self-awareness." Natsume raised a doubt, "Otherwise, why didn't you notice the abnormality in Yukimura-kun?"

Teacher Cat curled his lips, stared at the innocent Nai Nai next to him and said, "It's not that this guy looks like a cat demon at first glance, I thought the demon power emanated from this guy, and those little monsters are attracted by spiritual power, aren't they?" Is it normal, Natsume, you are always haunted by monsters."

"That's right." Natsume rubbed the back of his head resentfully, then turned to look at Yukimura, "It seems that Yukimura-kun's troubles are all related to the Jade of the Four Souls, I think we should find a way to help him."

Natsume originally thought that Mr. Cat would take advantage of the fire and offered to give it to the big monster to keep this treasure. After all, it said that this thing is very helpful to monsters, but he didn't expect Mr. Cat's reaction to this was very cold: "Big trouble, solve it No."

"Eh?"

Teacher Cat sighed melancholy: "Idiots believe this is a good thing. It can lure monsters to lose their minds. I don't know how many monsters have died on it. The safest way is to find someone with pure spiritual power." Humans have purified it, neither humans nor monsters are suitable for possessing such treasures. You go and call that fellow Natori, his ancestors belong to a family of exorcising demons, so there should be a way to solve this trouble."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Cat would express that he was beyond his power. Natsume hurriedly patted it comfortingly: "Mr. Cat, you are the best. Without your help, we might be finished."

The corners of Mr. Cat's lips turned up when he heard the words, and he recovered his strength and laughed: "Isn't that right? I'm a big monster, so I don't pay attention to such heresies. Monsters still have to keep their feet on the ground and rely on themselves to improve their strength."

Natsume clapped her hands cooperatively, then looked at Yukimura and said, "I have a friend who is an exorcist. If Yukimura-kun is willing, I will ask him to handle this matter, and there will be no more monsters to harass you in the future." .”

"Then I'll leave it to Natsume-kun." Yukimura said kindly.

The two people parted ways here, and Yukimura took Nana back to the hotel.

"Thank you for protecting me last night, Nana."

"It's also my fault for my misjudgment. The result of the Tarot card calculation should be correct, but I didn't expect that Miss Kagome handed us a hot potato. You should be safe and sound. It's all my fault for adding trouble to you out of thin air." Nana He lowered his head guiltily.

Yukimura retorted: "Your estimate is correct. In a world where gods and monsters exist, I don't have any power to protect myself. It's just that we don't know how to use the power of the jade of the four souls." He picked up the jade of the four souls Yu, looking at this ordinary bead carefully, "The cat teacher said it is very attractive, but the strange thing is that the attack it has suffered so far is just a trivial matter, and the cat teacher's judgment on it It doesn't seem to match."

"Did you notice anything abnormal?" Nana was 100% convinced of Yukimura's reasoning ability.

Yukimura shook his head, put away the Jade of the Four Souls, looked at the sky and murmured: "I just feel that all of this seems to be designed... Maybe your divination is not wrong at all, I will get the Jade of the Four Souls by chance, and even Taking it to travel to this different world named Yahara, I met Natsume-kun and Mr. Cat by coincidence, and finally got their help. The whole logic chain is complete and sufficient, but it is too reasonable, so reasonable that it seems to have An invisible hand is moving everything and protecting us from harm in the meantime."

Nana was awakened, her eyes widened suddenly, but before she could say anything, Yukimura put her index finger to her lips and softly "hush": "There are no accidents in this world, there are only inevitability." Nana was stunned. Looking at him, Yukimura's smiling face gradually overlapped with the figure of a certain woman in his memory.

Although there was a small accident that night, the whole night was passed safely.

On the way to breakfast in the morning, Yukimura saw a person and a cat yawning at the same time, he walked up slowly and said hello, "You worked hard last night, Natsume-kun," he knelt down and showed a gentle smile Looking at Mr. Cat, he patted its head lightly, "Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Cat, thanks to you for protecting this place."

Mr. Cat, who has always been honest with other human beings, couldn't help being pleased by Yukimura's gentle offensive, and looked at him shyly: "This is the majesty of a big monster. Those guys were killed by me before they got closer to ten meters away." The momentum is shocking."

Seeing that the two got along well, Natsume smiled happily, looked at Yukimura and added: "I told Mr. Natori what happened here last night, and he will arrive this evening, so there is no need for Mr. Yukimura to do this." Worry."

Yukimura looked at him with all his heart and trust, and the label on Natsume's head exuded a soft, warm glow, and this alone reflected how he was judged by the world—a kind and warm soul.

What a beautiful soul is a person who can see unknowable existence and may have been hurt because of it, but still has goodwill towards humans, monsters, and everything that exists in this world?

"Is there anything I can do for you?" In any of the worlds he traveled in the past, it was more about helping others. This is the first time Yukimura has received help from a key person.

Natsume was a little surprised when Yukimura said that suddenly. He shook his head and replied softly, "No. Because I'm already very happy."

Yukimura was moved.

At this time, other people came noisily from the corridor, interrupting their conversation.

"Minister, what are you talking about with Natsume-kun?" Kirihara approached curiously.Yukimura said lightly: "It's nothing, let's go eat." He took his junior away smoothly.

After breakfast, it is the beginning of a new day of training.

Today was Yukimura and Atobe's team sparring training. Seeing that Yukimura was a little absent-minded, Atobe was keenly aware that this might have nothing to do with Nana's ecstasy these two days, so he took the initiative to suspend the practice, walked to Yukimura's side with concern and asked Said: "Do you need to find someone to talk to?"

Yukimura, who was bending over to pick up the ball, raised his head and looked at Atobe, showing a reassuring smile: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about tonight."

"Tonight," Atobe was confused, "do you have any plans for tonight?"

Yukimura tilted his head and looked at him, as if he was weighing whether to tell the truth in his heart. "Xiao Jing, do you think there are other supernatural forces besides magic?"

"You mean superpowers?" Atobe shrugged, spreading his hands indifferently, "Maybe."

Yukimura smiled, stretched out his hand and gently touched Atobu's side face, before the other party reacted, he leaned into his ear and whispered: "Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" While digesting, a mischievous smile appeared.

Atobe caressed the tear mole on his face, showing a helpless but doting smile: "If there are, I hope they can play tennis."

■

The group returned to the hotel after training and tasted a delicious meal. Yukimura didn't see Natsume during the whole process, so it was logical to guess that he should pick up the friend who is the exorcist.

After the meal, the two schools sat together, and the more lively Xiang Ri and Marui asked themselves to be the hosts, responsible for organizing the evening activities, but the others were disrespectful.

Just as the evening tea party was about to start, Nana gracefully walked in from the door with a "meow", and went straight to Yukimura, lying obediently in his arms, and then quietly remained motionless.

The rest of the people didn't notice this little episode, they were chatting about what activities should be arranged.

After playing a few rounds of the game, everyone was not very satisfied. The main reason is that Liu, who is good at calculating and forbearance, is good at reading people's hearts, which ruined the game experience, not to mention the whole process. Yukimura and Atobe.

The rest adhered to the idea of ​​the FFF group that the game can be lost and the couple must "die", and they were determined to find the weakness of Yukimura and Atobe so as to win back.

Nioh, who has experienced many battles, suggested: "Since it's a co-house, the ghost story must be indispensable. Otherwise, let's do it this way. In the next round, we will compete in telling ghost stories and score points in turn. The one with the lowest score must complete a punishment."

Everyone has no objection to this proposal, even Sanada, who has always been prudent, has no objection.

"...At this moment, the woman turned her head back, and what appeared was a face without facial features. The girl was terrified, and she couldn't help thinking, since this ghost has no facial features, who is the person who just spoke? She turned around... and saw another grimace in an instant!" Under the warm yellow light, accompanied by Xianghi's vivid performance, Marui and Kirihara, who were the least courageous, hugged each other tremblingly, huddled against the wall and did not dare to let go, Yagyu He looked calm and composed, but his back was already drenched in sweat.

In the scoring session, Xiang Ri won with a high score, ranking in the top three, and the next one to be designated was Ri Ji.

Yukimura, who was listening to the ghost story, unknowingly began to wander, rubbed his eyes, and propped his face with his hands in a sleepy manner.Atobe next to him noticed his sleepy look and couldn't help chuckling.

At this time, Hiji was stuttering about a ghost story he had just read on the Internet, and because he was really unskilled, the people in the audience were not interested in hearing it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sudden gust of cold wind came in through the crack of the door. It was obviously the night wind in midsummer, but it still made several people stand up staggeringly. It's dark.

"What's going on?" A group of people looked at each other in the dark under the faint moonlight in the courtyard.

Xiang Ri joked: "Could it be because Riji's ghost story is so bad, so he attracted the real ghost." It was an unintentional remark, but the timid people were still taken aback by him , Marui and Kirihara leaning against the corner trembled.

Liu, who was sitting on the outside, stood up, took a closer look at the condition of the light, then opened the door and glanced at the situation outside: "It may be a short circuit, I will go to the front desk to deal with it."

Yukimura remembered that Natsume who was in charge of the front desk was not there, so he stood up and said, "Let me go to the distribution box to have a look." He stood up and planned to go out, but before he went out, he subconsciously felt something was wrong , raised his head and saw the little black cat Nana nimbly bouncing up from the tatami, kicking the air in front of him, but it was obviously invisible air that bounced it out.

Atobe quickly caught it, while Kirihara pointed at the courtyard tremblingly, showing a frightened expression of disbelief.

"Then... what is that?"
