[Go Soul Natsume's Book of Friends] Guang Xia

No.17 times

However, the only answer to the light was the sound of pattering rain.

The rain washed the earth relentlessly.The snow-white paper figurines flew in front of my eyes, and were soon soaked by the rain, scattered and stuck to the sawdust.

The chessboard that Zuo Wei possessed was still empty.It seemed that the bloodstain that had just reappeared was just an illusion.

Guang clenched the folding fan in his hand, and slowly squatted down.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, but he forced a cat.But, Mr. Cat, it undoubtedly knows.It knew that it had seen bloodstains on the chessboard, maybe it knew Zuowei's secret from the very beginning.

"Natsume..." Hikaru murmured in pain and numbly, "Does Natsume know?"

Teacher Cat ignored him.It turned around, wagging the little tail behind it, and moved back to Grandpa's inner room with a trembling stomach.

If it is not mistaken, the paper dolls buried under the wooden floor are probably surrounded by the demon-killing array.

The disappearance of that sai is by no means accidental.

No matter how far the city's exorcist orders are banned, as long as there is a slight disturbance, they will be able to detect it instantly.The day after Natsume brought it to Tokyo, Natori immediately came to visit him on Monday.The same thing happened with the little fox demon.If it hadn't changed into a vine and arrived in time, the little fox demon might not have escaped.

It seems that it is wise to decide to leave Natsume temporarily.Otherwise, I don't know how much trouble it will cause that kid.

As for the sai, the ghost attached to the chessboard, it is what humans call an "unreasonable existence", no different from a monster. For 50 years, the demon masters have maintained the city perfectly, so how could they allow the existence of sai?

The array of paper figures in the attic must have been deliberately stuffed into the cracks in the floor by an exorcist to make Sai disappear without leaving a trace.

Ah.Teacher Cat sneered.In this way, the exorcising master really worked hard.

Knowing everything early in the morning, he still considered Shinto Hikaru's feelings, and didn't let Sai disappear all at once.

┄…┄…┄…┄…┄*

Yeze Middle School.

This section was originally a physical education class, but it was raining extremely hard.Natsume sat in the classroom and studied quietly.The rain outside the window became more and more bitter, and the sound of drizzling replaced the singing of cicadas.A faint glimmer of sunlight peeked out from behind the leaden clouds.In the distance, the sky tree stands in the mist, like the pointer of a huge sundial.

"Ah, what a nuisance. It's been raining for the past few days." Chuan Tian complained from the side, "I can't go to the chess academy to get the registration form again today."

Hearing the word "Ki-in", Natsume couldn't help paying attention.He turned his head and saw Chuan Tian lying on the window sill next to the corridor, holding a poster in his hand, and his long moon-white hair covered his body.

"It's rare to have a professional chess player to guide our Go club." Another girl was also dejected, "It's hard to gather the number of girls to participate, and the weather is like this..."

Chuan Tian sighed again and again, turned his head, and met Natsume's eyes unprepared.

"Huh?" She smiled slightly, with a warm light in her blue eyes, "Is Natsume-kun also interested in the Go team competition?"

Natsume quickly waved his hand: "No, I don't know how to go."

"I'm so familiar with Jinto chess player, can't I know how to go?" Chuan Tian tilted his head.

I am ashamed to say this.Natsume remembered that Hikari once wanted to teach himself some basic Go introductions.But no matter what he said, Natsume still didn't understand.In the end, he only learned how to hit and eat, that is, to surround a white stone with four black stones, and he couldn't remember anything more complicated.

"Maybe I'm not talented in Go." Natsume looked at the floor, his brown eyes were full of admiration, and a tenderness that couldn't be expressed in words, "Shito-kun is different."

"Shindo-kun is a genius." Kawasame smiled enviously, "If I have such a good relationship with top chess players like Natsume-kun, I will definitely try my best to play against him."

For some reason, Natsume felt that Kawasoe's smile couldn't reach his eyes.Especially when talking about Go, those blue-purple eyes seem to be sighing faintly, warm and sad.

There was a slight knock on the window suddenly.When Natsume looked up, he saw a clear bamboo-colored dress.The girl stood outside the window holding a few forms, and the rain splashed down the handle of the oil-paper umbrella.

"Qing Lan!" Chuan Tian stood up, surprised, "You're here!"

Qinglan smiled and handed the form to Chuantian, and waved to Natsume amidst the girl's happy cry of "Ah, it really helped me a lot!"

"You received it?" Natsume finally felt relieved.Fortunately, Mr. Natori still keeps his word.

Chuantian looked at them, and then turned his attention to the form.She seemed to have doubts about the acquaintance of Natsume and Qinglan, but she never asked anything.That's what made Natsume feel weird.Natsume has no way of knowing how Qinglan met Chuantian after she became a human being.However, if Chuantian is Qinglan's friend, why does he appear to be acquainted and indifferent at times?

By the way...friend.

"Miss Qinglan," Natsume suddenly remembered, and took out the backpack with "Book of Friends" in the drawer, "I have something here that I haven't returned to you."

He hasn't returned Qing Lan's name in "Friends' Book" to her yet.

The girl froze for a moment, and realized it after a while.She took out the paper and pen, with a twinkle of reluctance in her eyes: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you leave it with you. Natsume-kun, if you need help, you can find me."

"No." Natsume shook her head resolutely, "I still think it's better to return it to you."

Qing Lan looked down at the floor.The long black hair is scattered on the shoulders, and the sleeves of the clear bamboo color are slightly wet.Qing Lan like this is lonely.But in the end, she nodded.

Natsume stared at her, and the long-lost emotion came to her heart.

It turned out that no matter where he went, he couldn't escape.

Those heavy ones inherited from grandma—all of them.

┄…┄…┄…┄…┄*

The continuous drizzle lasted for a long time.When the shoes brush against the grass under their feet, they will make a thin rustling sound, like the sound of dragonflies flapping their wings.The air was filled with the aroma of rain and earth.

Because of the rain, no one stayed on the playground.Natsume took out the bamboo green "Book of Friends" from his backpack and opened it gently.The names of the monsters were quickly soaked by the rain, dyeing them into ink-colored flowers.

The wind of the rainy season, blowing from the gaps in the skyscrapers, made the "Book of Friends" rattle.Suddenly, the paper stopped ringing.A piece of Japanese paper stands upright in the fumigated city wind.

The boy tore off the paper and put it to his lips, his brown eyes were clear, and his short light golden hair fluttered gently.

The patter of rain.In the distance, the sound of the Che River flowing can still be heard.All of this is wrapped in the ethereal and long voice of the young man.Like the light moonlight, weaving cocoons in the city.

"I'll give you my name back, Qing Xingdeng."

Just when Moshi's name broke free from the paper and flew towards the girl's forehead, Natsume heard it.

"Natsume—what are you doing?"

Natsume couldn't believe it!

The "Book of Friends" fell from his hand and landed in the puddle with a bang, like the sound of something breaking.

Guang stood behind him, still holding the bright brown tree trunk with his left hand.He had obviously just come running out of breath, and his golden hoodie was completely soaked.His eyes were full of disbelief, but what was more, was deep sadness.

For a moment, Natsume thought it was Teacher Kitty who turned into it again.But soon he realized that this was the real light.Because, in Teacher Cat's eyes, there would never be such shock and bewilderment.

"it is as expected."

The trembling sound of light descended along the rain, knocking down to the most feared place in Natsume's heart.

"Natsume—you really have something you've been hiding from me!"
