cat's revenge

After exchanging contact information with Kobayashi Rindou, Yuki went back to Gojo Satoru.The latter seemed to have discussed something with the younger generation, and he put his hands on the helpless younger generation's shoulders carelessly.

"Yuki-chan, wait for the nearby shrine to have a festival, do you want to go with me?" Gojo raised his hand and extended an invitation with a refreshing smile on his face.

Of course, Yuki replied without thinking, "Okay."

She was so straightforward that Jianren Qihai couldn't help but push his glasses.

"Let's go with Nanami too!" Gojo announced to himself.

"Why do you ask the child, but you don't even ask me about my wishes?" The man who looked extremely tired complained.

Yuki: ...This complaint hits the nail on the head.

"What are you talking about, because Yuki-chan will definitely agree to me without even thinking about it! And Nanami, you will just reject me without thinking about it!"

"It surprises me, Mr. Gojo, that you can still be so self-aware..."

The way the two get along is basically Gojo Satoru sticking to it without any sense of distance, and then Jianren Qihai looks indifferent, using indifference to resist the other party's strong harassment.

Yuki couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Gojo, who was holding Qihai's neck tightly, hoping that he would succumb to his enthusiasm and play with him, was slightly stunned: "Yuki-chan?"

"Mr. Qihai, just promise him." She put her hands behind her back and tilted her head with a smile, "Because the teacher is an idiot who doesn't know how to get along with the person I particularly like, and doesn't know how to properly invite others to relax together. .”

Jianren Qihai pushed his glasses: "I would like to know what he did to cause you to have this misunderstanding." Then, as if he had compromised, he crossed his arms and said, "But if I don't go, he will It will definitely haunt me endlessly like now, so let's make an extra exception this time."

——The point is, if he doesn't go, this sticky guy will always communicate with the girl in that close posture, and I'm afraid the whole college's reputation will become strange by then.

Although it's just that Gojo Satoru's reputation is wrong at the moment, as a decent person, Qihai doesn't want his reputation to be made weird by Mr. Gojo.

"Also, don't call me a teacher, I'm not a faculty member."

Yuki blinked, and then showed a cute smile with small canine teeth: "That's Master Nanami."

"...Please don't call me that."

"Hey."

"Oh? That's too much, Yuki-chan, please call 'Gojo-sama' or 'Papa-sama' to listen~"

"No, just call the teacher."

"Too much—"

Qihai Jianren let out a helpless sigh.

——To be honest, he would rather work overtime for three consecutive days than go to the festival with Gojo Satoru.

Even so, he was dragged out.

"Ah ~ Qihai, why do you even dress like this when you go to festivals?" But when he appeared, Goto gnawed on the chocolate banana in his hand and complained that he always wore elegant suits when he went to festivals, and he was very formally dressed.

On the contrary, the person who said this was wearing loose casual clothes and wearing sunglasses because he was in a good mood.

And Jianren Qihai also felt that it was meaningless to answer his question, so he casually changed the subject: "Where is Lihualuo?"

"Yuki-chan went to change clothes." Gojo, who was naturally stuck to the Nanami Sea, raised an index finger, "Of course girls should wear cute yukata to participate in the festival."

Nanami pushed her glasses.

How should I put it, Gojo Satoru is synonymous with frivolity, but in some places, he is very persistent and... ordinary.

For example, "Girls should wear beautiful yukata to participate in festivals".

but……

"It's already autumn, Mr. Gojo. You'll catch a cold when the chestnut flowers fall." The adults among the adults reminded themselves of their seniors who were particularly unreliable in certain aspects.

Gojo Satoru: Huh?

"I've been waiting for a long time." Yuki came out of the changing room, just in time to see two people looking at her side at the same time.

The girl tilted her head, and even folded the cat ear on the left side.

Seven Seas:  …

There are too many elements, but people don't know what to say.

On the contrary, Gojo Satoru, the instigator, raised the thumbs of both hands without hesitation: "very great! It fits Yuki-chan very well, and it is indeed the yukata that Dad personally chose!" He moved over and covered his mouth with one hand Neither serious nor serious, Qihai who happened to be next to him asked in a voice that could be heard, "Are you cold? Will you catch a cold?"

Yuki was short-circuited for a second by his sudden jump thinking, and subconsciously shook his head: "It's not cold."

A crossroads popped up on Qihai's forehead.

Wujo Satoru has undoubted power, which makes people trust and feel at ease, but if you want to say why such a person is not respected, it is definitely because his character is too bad.

"It's not cold, but I want to eat something warm." Yuki reached out and grabbed Gojo's sleeve, "Let's find something warm to eat."

Qihai stood where she was, and after thinking for a while, she raised her heel to follow Gojo Satoru who was being pulled by Yuki's sleeve and walked forward.

But in the final analysis, why did he follow these two people?

Just now Gojo Satoru said "Dad" who completely ignored the opinions of the people around him, because he yelled too loudly, even he received strange looks.

In any case, even wearing a suit and leather shoes, wearing sunglasses, and appearing at the festival as a social animal is very eye-catching, but this is not the same as being weird because of Gojo Satoru's various unexpected tricks. Eye gaze is a completely different feeling.

Just when he was struggling with this problem, Kuruka Rakuyuki's complaints attracted his attention again: "But this is so cheap..."

"Hmm... Yuki-chan has to pay a lot to understand Dad..." Wujo Wuyu put his hand on the girl's shoulder earnestly.

And the girl is holding a box of takoyaki in her hand - I don't know why it is much cheaper than other takoyaki stalls nearby.

Before Yuki could continue to ask why, Gojo Satoru smeared oil on the soles of his feet and ran to other places: "Butter potatoes, butter potatoes~"

Yuki: ...

Qihai stepped forward and looked down at the takoyaki held in Yuki's hand. No matter in color or size, it looked the same as ordinary takoyaki. People couldn't understand why it was cheaper than other stalls. .

Yuki looked up at Nanami next to the bar, smiled and held up the takoyaki and said, "Would you like one?"

Saying so, she first forked one with a small bamboo stick.

Qihai was silent for a while, but in the end, because the other party's eyes were too eager, she reached out and picked up another bamboo stick, inserted a takoyaki, and stuffed it into her mouth.

——then he fully understood why this takoyaki was cheaper than other places.

There is no octopus in takoyaki at all.

"Lost it." He rubbed his forehead.

Takoyaki without octopus is not worthy of being called takoyaki.Because it is much cheaper than other places, so I can't say anything.

But the girl chewed and swallowed it, then inserted the second one into her mouth: "Well, there seems to be something in this? It feels like a lottery."

Seven Seas:  …

This kid is too optimistic.

It is not suitable to stay in the world of conjurers.

"But then again, where did Mr. Gojo go? He disappeared in a blink of an eye." Yuki's ears moved, he raised his face and closed his eyes, sniffing his nose vigorously as if smelling something .

"Yuki-chan! There are goldfish here!" Just as he was about to say something, there were five super-frivolous greetings from the other side, making Qihai think for a moment that he was taking care of two children.

Yuki's ears pricked up immediately, and after running two steps forward, he realized that there was a reluctant "nanny" behind him, so he turned his head and said, "Master Nanami, let's go catch goldfish together!" ?"

"..." Jianren Qihai, who was physically and mentally exhausted, sighed, feeling that he was sighing more now than he had worked in a securities company for four years, "Please don't call me that."

Yuki blinked: "But I think you are very suitable for this title, I don't know why."

Gojo Satoru over there seemed to be about to bully the owner of the goldfish stall and cry. The other party cried and gave him the two most beautiful goldfishes, and then begged the Buddha to leave his goldfish stall as soon as possible. do other people's business.

But Gojo Satoru didn't want to leave.

"Yuki-chan, do you want to try it?" He held up the two twin-tailed dragon eyes just given to him by the stall owner crying, as if showing off, "It's super easy to catch."

Qihai: ...Does the so-called Chao Hao Lao refer to using magic to bully ordinary people?

Yuki ran to the stall on wooden clogs, and gave the stall owner [-] yen, one hundred yen can be fished once, and Yuki got five glutinous rice paper net bags for fishing goldfish.

"Which one does Yuki-chan like?" Gojo leaned over, "That purple-black one seems pretty good."

"Wait, wait, it's coming," Yuki held his breath, and stretched out the net bag behind the purple-black goldfish, "Ah——"

The result, of course, was that the net bag was shattered by the energetic goldfish as soon as it struggled.

Gojo Satoru, who was supposed to help, put his hands in his trouser pockets, stood aside and ate ice cream: "Come on, Yuki-chan, you can do it!"

Seven Seas:  …

No, no matter how you look at it, the glutinous rice paper is thinner than usual, no matter how you give it to this child...

In the next second, Qihai's eyes narrowed slightly.

He felt a slight icy chill lingering in the air.

Kuruka Luo Yuki's spirit is highly concentrated, I don't know if it's Nanami's illusion... No, it's not an illusion, he did see it, in that child's spirit is highly concentrated, his eyes are staring at the water without blinking and swimming freely When she was holding the goldfish, a thin layer of ice crystals hung on the glutinous rice paper net bag in her hand.

"It's fished out!" This time, the glutinous rice paper net bag did not break, but fished out the beautiful purple-black goldfish.

"Yuki-chan, do you want more?" Wujo asked without losing the opportunity.

"No need, this one is very cute." Yuki said.

She reached out and took the plastic bag containing the small fish in her hand: "Go and find a stall that sells big squid? I really want to eat grilled squid."

Saying so, she stepped on the wooden clogs and ran forward: "I smell the fragrance, over there..."

Qihai deliberately lagged a bit behind: "The one just now, is the spell of Li Hualuo?"

"Scared me." Although Gojo Satoru said so, he didn't feel that he was scared at all, but still had the "expected" attitude, "It really works."

"Also?" Qihai subconsciously grasped the key points in his words.

"Right now, I'm actually quite wary of that kid." Gojo grinned, "Kacha Kacha" biting the ice cream cone shell in his hand, "Even..."

It is even uncertain whether the child will hand over the control if "Snow Girl" wants to take the initiative.

After all, the child now relies on and trusts "Snow Maiden" far more than anyone else, and no matter how special the other party is, they are just "curses" after all.

As a fusion body, Yuki Kurihualuo was boarded by "Yuki Onna" prematurely, and half of her body has long been transformed into a magic spirit, and has merged with Yuki Onna's power. Her breath is blocked, and there is even the danger of covering up the child's own spells.

"Even what?" Qihai asked, crossing her arms.

To be able to make Gojo Satoru say "watch out", Nanami Jianren felt that he had to re-examine who Kurikara Yuki really was.

"It's nothing, just try to get on good terms with that child, I quite like her." Wutiao's face wore that kind of carefree, heartless and frivolous smile again.

"Your speech makes people want to call the police." But Mr. Gojo's words, calling the police is useless.

While the two were chatting, Yuki had already bought two grilled squids and rushed over, or to be more specific, she was holding a candy apple in her left hand and two grilled squids in her right hand. The cat's tail wagged slightly, and a blush from trotting appeared on its face.

"This is for the teacher." She gave the apple candy to Gojo Satoru.

Then he took a piece of grilled squid, and handed another one to Qihai: "This one is for Master Qihai."

Seven Seas:  …

I told you not to call him that.

So, are the students of that person still infected with that person's disobedience?

Although he was complaining in his heart, he still stretched out his hand to take the grilled squid from the girl's hand. The skewer with the grilled squid was a bit short, so when he stretched out his hand, his little finger touched Yuki's index finger.

The girl's hands were as cold as ice cubes.

"Ah... sorry." He subconsciously apologized.

But the voice of apology was quickly covered by Gojo Satoru's loud coquetry and complaints: "Why is Nanami grilled squid and I am apple candy! Yuki-chan, you are biased!"

"Oh? Didn't you just say you don't want to eat grilled squid?"

"Dad, I have changed my mind now."

"I told you not to call yourself by that weird name!" Yuki frowned.

"As compensation, give me a bite of Yuki-chan's squid!"

"No, if you want to eat it, take it by yourself! Wait, wait a minute, don't get so close, others are already watching! Woohoo! That piece is the most delicious! You pay me!"

In the chaos, Nanami Jianren silently took a bite of the squid in his hand, and took a step back, away from the two people who were attracting the eyes of those around him who were either searching or disgusting—to be more precise, it was Gojo Satoru.

Mr. Gojo is really a very self-conscious person, and he doesn't care what the surrounding eyes look like.

In other words.

Jianren Qihai took another bite of the squid in his hand.

——I am a little envious of this person's rough nerves.

as well as.

An adult who refuses to listen to the other party and forcibly claims to be the other party's father is scum.

Unknowingly, the three of them and the large group that had left the festival headed towards the shrine. Looking from the direction of the shrine, the bustling street seemed like another world.

Yuki didn't quite understand why Gojo wanted to lead him in this direction, so he asked, "Teacher Gojo, why did you bring me here?"

The latter put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked in front with a relaxed face. When he heard Yuki's question, he turned around and asked her back, "Yuki-chan, do you know whose shrine this is?"

Yuki put her finger on her chin, raised her head and thought hard for a while: "The pamphlet I read earlier seemed to say that it was a local god of land, right? I remember it said in the pamphlet that it seemed to be for worshiping a certain god. An oiran, make her a local land god or something..."

"Bingo" Gojo clapped his hands, "Those who can be worshiped as 'gods', in addition to 'gods', there are also 'wraiths' and 'curses'. For example, my ancestor Sugawara Michizane, as a wraith, It is also enshrined as the god of thunder and the god of culture, and is worshiped and prayed by candidates from all over the world every year. In a sense, it is also done for the sake of "cursing" for peace."

"But..." Qihai behind him didn't know why he was silent all the time. He waited until Wujo stopped explaining, and then said, "But, once the wraith that is put on the altar is forgotten, it loses the sacrifices and blessings like it. The crowd is equivalent to the "curse" of the "curse" that has lost its balance, and the negative things will be like sludge stirred up from the bottom of a calm lake and float to the surface."

Yuki was taken aback by his expression.

He seemed to be frowning as if remembering some memory that he didn't want to recall, his face full of impatience.

"However, no matter how you look at it, this shrine has not lost its sacrifices." Yuki said, pointing to the brightly lit festival below, "Everyone participated in the festival well, didn't they? The festival was also very lively..."

"Anxin, I just stopped by to confirm if there is any connection. It seems to be safe now, otherwise Nanami would have driven you away when I stepped on the first step of the shrine, right? Nanami?"

The latter pushed his glasses, expressing his acquiescence.

"Also, this location is very suitable for watching the fireworks." Gojo walked down and put his arms around Yuki's shoulders, "Let's go, watch the fireworks."

"Wow, teacher, let go!"

Dazzling fireworks rose into the sky, and then exploded colorful colors in mid-air.

However, amidst the sound of explosions in the sky, Yuki's sensitive ears heard a strange sound.

Disappearing, fleeting.

—Small and mournful sobs belonging to girls.
