After finishing club activities with great difficulty, Natsume didn't go back to his host family immediately, but went to another place.

To be honest, his host family is more like a family than a single person, and it looks like a very powerful person, who seems to be a lawyer.

He was worried that the other party would not let the cat teacher, but the other party also had a cat at home, and now he was afraid that the two cats would tear each other apart.

Yes, you read that right, Teacher Cat is here too.According to him, if he doesn't come, what if the friend account is robbed?

However, Natsume still has another purpose in coming here.

In Yahara, the yokai knew that he was coming to Tokyo, and a little yokai hoped that he could give something—it was said to be a price—to a shopkeeper.

But it's a little tricky.After all, the little monster didn't tell him where the shop was.

And, most importantly——

He is being chased by monsters right now——

Who knows where Teacher Cat went to drink again.

"Account of Friends..."

The monster behind him was still talking.

Cities are no better than villages. There are many cars and traffic lights in cities, but there are really few trees. Natsume doesn't care about pushing away many people, but he can't ignore the traffic lights.

Fortunately, when he encountered a traffic light, it was basically a green light.

So why did the account of friends spread here! !

And that incompetent bodyguard!

No matter how much he complained in his heart, the only way Natsume could do now was to run as hard as he could.

Maybe it was because he was in a panic, or maybe it was because he subconsciously wanted to run to a place where there were few people. As he ran, Natsume ran more and more remote.

This kind of remoteness does not mean that there are no buildings, roads, or traffic lights, but that this place should not be in a downtown area.

Maybe it was because of the bewilderment, Natsume saw a courtyard and rushed into it without hesitation.

Waiting to rush in to find out that something is wrong—this is not only seeking death for myself, but also causing trouble for others...

Huh?What about monsters?

Suddenly the muttering of the monster disappeared, and Natsume turned around in a daze. The monster had indeed disappeared, as if the chase just now was just his fantasy.

This... is it...

"Yo, Natsume, you're here." Not surprisingly, Mr. Cat was outside the yard, watching Natsume quietly.

Natsume endured it, but he still couldn't hold it back, and stepped forward decisively to give Mr. Cat a good beating.

"How about protecting me?! Teacher, you are too lax!"

"Hey, I think this store is weird... It hurts, Natsume, you hit me again!"

Mr. Cat, please swallow the fish in your mouth before saying this.Thank you for your cooperation.

Natsume was also speechless to Teacher Kitty.

However, there is something strange about this store.

Leaving aside where that monster went just now, this store alone is weird enough.

Not to mention the sense of vicissitudes accumulated over the years in this store, this store itself is out of harmony in this place full of tall buildings.

Before Natsume could think about it, the sound of the door opening drew him back.

Two little girls came out.

They are pink and blue, like porcelain dolls.

"welcome."

"welcome."

"A guest came on April [-]st."

"We have guests today, too."

The two girls were frolicking as they prepared to push Natsume inside.

"Ah, but, but I am..."

Before Natsume finished speaking, he saw a fox (?) jumping out, baring its teeth and waving its claws at Mr. Cat, making a protesting sound of whining, very unfriendly.

"Hey, this is..."

Not to be outdone, Mr. Cat changed back to his original form and confronted the fox, and the two of them were about to fight.

"Teacher Cat!" Natsume was startled.

"Okay, Wuyue, he didn't mean anything malicious." A teenager walked out of the shop.The fox heard the boy's words, and reluctantly returned to the boy's side.

"Guests, please come in. And Mr. Monster outside, please come in too."

Only then did Mr. Cat resume his appearance as a beckoning cat, and walked in slowly.The twisting and twisting made Natsume want to punch him again.

And in fact he did.

"It hurts! Natsume, you hit me again!"

"Teacher is quite ashamed to say it!"

"Hmph, what a slow brat." Teacher Cat turned his head, jumped on Natsume's shoulder, and stopped talking.

What Mr. Cat didn't say was that this store is really weird. It seems that there is an enchantment that can block monsters. Ordinary monsters cannot enter.The monster who chased Natsume just now was blocked by this barrier.He didn't come in just now because of this enchantment—of course it doesn't mean that he can't break through this enchantment, but he is afraid of alarming the people inside.

And... that boy is also weird.

Forgive Ban, first of all, he has been sealed for so long, he has already separated from the monster world a long time ago, and he only stays in the place where the information of Eight Wishes is not very circulated, no wonder he doesn't know about this shop.You know, April [-]st and this store are still very famous among monsters.

As for Natsume?He is really ignorant of the rumors among monsters.

A little apprehensive, he followed into the store.

On the same small round table, the boy set tea and snacks and watched them quietly.

"Excuse me, is there a shop here where wishes can come true?"

Natsume asked with some uncertainty.

"Hehe, this is a shop where wishes can come true. Is there something the customer wants to come true?"

The young man smiled lightly.

Seeing the boy's smile, Natsume blushed slightly.On the one hand, it was because of my own stupidity, and on the other hand, it was because this young man was really good-looking.

Long and narrow red phoenix eyes, different pupils, and that mysterious aura...

Natsume whispered to Teacher Cat: "Teacher, do you think he is a monster?"

No wonder Natsume thought so.Natsume himself can't see that kind of monster that looks similar to a human, and the temperament of the shopkeeper...

"Stupid! He's human, human!"

Mr. Kitty gave Natsume a slap in the face, telling you to bully me just now!

"Don't worry, I'm a human being, but... just live longer."

Live longer?

Natsume didn't understand what that meant.The shop owner didn't seem to want to explain what was going on.

"Ah, by the way, are you the shopkeeper here?"

Natsume finally remembered what he was here for.

"Yes, I'm the shopkeeper—though only as an agent."

"if it is like this……"

Natsume took out a small wind chime from his pocket.The wind chimes are very delicate, basically translucent, with a little green in the middle, like leaves.

The owner picked up the wind chime and shook it slightly. The crisp sound immediately reminded people of spring water.

"It was given to me by a little goblin, saying it was a price for you. And I want to pass it on: 'Thank you for your help.'"

"Really, then it really has a heart."

The shopkeeper gave the wind chime to the pink girl who came up.

"Ah, it's getting late, so I'll take my leave first."

Natsume suddenly remembered that he was staying at someone else's house, so he had to click back again.

"Then I won't send it."

"I believe... we will meet again soon."

The shopkeeper looked at the back of the departing person and slowly smiled.

Then he turned his head and looked helplessly at Guanhu Wuyue at the side: "Okay, how can I transform you back now?"
