After marrying Kunikida

Akiba Shin's previous name was nothing special to Akiba Sakura, but after getting to know Kunikida Doppo and getting in touch with the world of supernatural beings, she gradually understood the inner meaning of this surname.

Of course, it is impossible for her to feel that the notebook in her hand is some kind of "Book of Friends" - and compared to the meaning of the name Natsume Shin, Akiba Sakura values ​​another sentence of Mori Ogai more.

"When did you say that mother left the world of supernatural beings?"

"Let me think about it, it was almost the day I became an adult, and I left when I was 20 years old. After careful calculation, it was 20 years ago. After she left, I met her again at the funeral. Thinking about it, I feel that the world is impermanent. "

Hearing that Mori Ogai seemed to be smiling a little, Akiba Sakura also raised the corners of his mouth: "So, you want to tell me that my mother's death was not due to a serious illness, but someone killed her?"

"Well, I don't think this question can be defined so simply."

Mori Ogai's expression towards Akiba Sakura can be said to be extraordinarily easy-going, but there is still an indifference in his eyes that cannot be ignored: "My bottom line is Yokohama and the Port Mafia... Well, if it is for Yokohama, Port Mafia In fact, it is not impossible to give up."

"I see, so your wife is indeed Yokohama, right?"

"No, Alice-chan will be upset if you say that."

Shaking his head with a smile, Mori Ogai no longer kept his secrets, and stretched out his hand to the girl in front of him: "You have that notebook with you, right?"

"Yes, but I don't think you can use it."

"There is really no way, so I just want to see it."

Sensing that the first three pages couldn't be opened, Mori Ogai didn't pay too much attention. He casually turned to a page and looked at the little girl holding a flower drawn on it, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "It really put everything she knows in it." ,Apart from--"

"Except for the one that was torn off?"

"Well, I was surprised that she was able to draw this conclusion without hesitation. Although I don't know which one she tore off, I know where the one was torn off."

Looking at the dark gray-eyed girl in front of him, Ogai Mori closed the "Heart" notebook and handed it back to her: "Before I tell you, do you want to hear the past?"

"Is it the past when she met you and Mr. Fukuzawa as your teacher's daughter, or do you want to hear from me about how she found out that she cheated on a large scale after letting the students write by dictation? The legend that the first time you recite all the texts written by dictation correctly, you let people go?"

"I don't know about this... Wait, do you really care about her being a teacher?"

"That's right, it's so ruthless, and even brought me 300 math problems, the kind that wouldn't let me go out until I finished."

Akiba Sakura nodded heavily at Mori Ogai, who was a little surprised, and then saw him laugh: "Really, I thought her temper would change, but it turned out to be the same."

"So what do you want to tell me?"

"Then we start from scratch."

Mori Ogai stared at the girl in front of him as if he wanted to find some memories from her, and finally withdrew his temptation with a slight smile, and became gentle again: "She is a child adopted by Mr. Natsume in the orphanage."

"Well, I can guess that."

"Since this is the case, I will ignore the things in the middle. At that time, Xin chose to give up everything when faced with the choice given by Teacher Natsume, and said, 'All your attention is on the supernatural beings, but I prefer to see The world in the eyes of ordinary people'. She chose to give up her supernatural powers and became an ordinary person."

Facing Uemori Ouwai's pointed eyes, Akiba Sakura glanced at the notebook in her hand, and stuffed it back into her bag: "But mom can't really become an ordinary person."

"Correct."

"So that's how she died?"

"As I said before, it's only half the reason if it really counts."

half?Akiba Sakura frowned slightly. If it was half, then the other half was really just seriously ill?

"The other half, you can ask the man who dropped the hyacinth on your mother's grave."

"I don't know who it is."

"Oh... yes. Actually, I don't know, so I think you can go to your mother's grave and wait for a while, and see who comes to change the water for Hyacinth every day and you can catch him. It's very simple, isn't it?"

Mori Ogai nodded with a smile, and Akiba Sakura didn't seem to want to say who rolled his eyes at all: "Can you not be so wicked? Really don't know?"

"Not sure. Sakura, you have to pay a price for everything you get, and the price you give is worth so much. Ah, by the way, you don't need to pay too much attention to your protection order and reward order, as long as they don't exist. .”

"..."

Then I will give you the notebook, and you can talk more, such as how to revoke my protection and reward order.

After slandering in her heart for a while, she walked out of the Mafia building at the port accompanied by Ozaki Hongye. Akiba Sakura looked at the big sister in kimono sitting next to her and sighed softly: "Miss Ozaki, I really want to ask why you went later Is it not you who collected the money from the rock house teahouse?"

"Ah, it's not that I should be great, after all Zhong Ye is very handsome."

Ozaki Koyo turned his head with a smile, his face was very happy: "You don't like him? I think Chuya is more handsome than your Dana-san?"

"I remember that you were the person involved at the time. You should know that Mr. Dubu and I are married. Are you a wife?"

"Oh, so what, a handsome guy will feel happy when he looks at it, won't he?"

If I don't have to pay back the money, I would be really happy. If I return Mr. Zhongyuan with two booster pads...

Not daring to say this, Akiba Sakura looked at the traffic outside the window, hugged her schoolbag and started to daze.Someone wants to kill her, but someone wants to protect her. What is the purpose? What is the purpose?

Did he want to use his notebook when he was threatened?Or do you want to complete the relics of your mother by yourself?or...

"cherry."

"Yes, Miss Ozaki?"

"If there is any place you want to go, remember to tell me."

Place you want to go?

"No need Miss Ozaki, just take me home."

Shaking her head slightly, although Akiba Sakura did want to go to the orphanage where her mother once stayed according to what Mori Ogai said, but she is not in a hurry now.

After the beginning of October, the sky began to darken faster, especially at night-at this sunset time, going to the abandoned orphanage that had been transferred two years ago, let the autumn Ye Ying always felt as if some kind of ghost story was unfolding.

Let Ozaki Momiji send herself to the entrance of the shopping street to complete the food and vegetables she needs, and Akiba Sakura returns to Kunikidaya as if she has never been to the port Mafia, and has never seen Mori Ogai.When she was carrying a lot of things and was about to take out the keys, she was stunned for a moment, and when she turned her head, she saw a man who seemed to appear suddenly beside her.

"Sorry to bother you, good evening."

Watching the other party slightly take off the hat on his head and leaning towards herself, Akiba Sakura glanced at his slightly strange three hair colors and lowered her eyes, opened the lock slowly and turned around: "It's okay, speaking of it, I What should I call you?"

"Well, it's a bit embarrassing though."

The man in the high-necked sweater and the brown windbreaker seemed a little embarrassed, holding a cane in one hand and touching his cheek with the other hand, looking at Akiba Sakura with a very kind expression: "I think, you can call me... "

"Do you want me to call you Grandpa?"

The two of them seemed to be surprised by this address at the same time, Akiba Sakura rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, and sighed with an extremely complicated expression: "Forget it, it's too much... Mr. Natsume, you can find me?" What's up?"

"No, no, I think you can still call me like this."

Stretching out her hand to Natsume Soseki, Akiba Sakura looked at the message from Kunikida Doppo on her mobile phone, "I have overtime work today and I will be back late", and went to the kitchen to make a cup of tea for Natsume Soseki, watching him raise the cup Only then did he speak: "It always feels a bit strange to let other men in when my husband is away."

Taking a sip of tea, Natsume Soseki almost felt that he was going to choke to death: "What is another man, I am your elder!"

"Then why haven't I seen you in the previous 18 years?"

"..."

Natsume Soseki coughed a few times, and I don't know if it was because he was choking just now or because of his guilty look, Akiba Sakura raised his eyebrows: "And now that I know something, come to me again?"

"What kind of tone are you condemning a heartless person?"

The old man who was already guilty twitched the corners of his mouth, and immediately decided to get to the point: "Where is the thing that Ah Xin gave you?"

"Carry it with you in your bag."

Facing the schoolbag hard, Akiba Sakura only felt that she had finally reached the stage of youth rebellion, ready to move: "But I won't give it to you."

"At least it should be better for the retired old people."

"No, I'm rebellious."

Staring at the dark gray eyes of the girl in front of him, Natsume Soseki finally couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, but I won't be here for too long. But what I want to confirm is that you really want to either , the notebook of the heart."

Do you still want to keep it in your own hands?

As a relic of her mother, Akiba Sakura really wanted to continue to keep it; but as a tool of supernatural powers that might cause a bloodbath in the future, she thought it would be better to give it to Natsume Soseki.

You know it's her mother's relic, but it's also his daughter's.

The two were relatively silent for a while, and finally Akiba Sakura unzipped the schoolbag first, and handed Natsume Soseki the notebook she was carrying with her.

"I... used a notebook once."

"I know, you should have saved a little Chinese girl at that time. Not many people knew about it, but it's a pity that people who shouldn't know knew about it, so they had different ideas. Fortunately, the most knowledgeable The one who came here is not here, otherwise the old man would give me a headache."

When taking the notebook, Natsume Soseki glanced at the first three pages that could not be opened, and brushed the uneven fault with his finger when he turned to the last page: "It has chosen you, but you still decided to give it to me." I?"

"Well, if that's the way to go."

Closing the notebook in his hand, the old man with hair color like a three-colored cat stared at the little girl in front of him, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up and his tone became more obscure: "Your words frustrate me, because there are many people in this world. It's something that an old man like me can't solve. Although the notebook belongs to my little girl, I should leave it to her little girl according to her idea."

When talking about this, Natsume Soseki paused, and at the same time his expression became calm: "Then now, there is only one last thing I haven't told you about Xin."

"Is there only one thing you didn't tell me, or only one thing?"

"I can only tell you one thing. Specifically, the whole thing is equivalent to a jigsaw puzzle. What I can tell you is that it has been put together before, but you need to find the pattern pieces on it yourself. This includes why you are offering a reward The list, why there is another protection order, and why it is you."

Handing back the notebook in his hand to Akiba Sakura, Natsume Soseki's smile suddenly became sly, and Akiba Sakura looked familiar and itchy: "So I will only tell you one news."

"What is it?"

"Your mother is no ordinary person."

"I already knew this."

"Isn't that enough? We must know that the cause of many things is not because of the purpose, but because of missing."

Hearing what he seemed to mean, Akiba Sakura pursed her lips and sent the person out the door, watching Natsume Soseki disappear before turning her gaze back to her notebook, and suddenly understood Natsume Soseki's subtext.

The meaning of my cheap grandfather is not that Qiu Yexin is a person with supernatural powers, but that she is not an ordinary human being.

Someone wants to borrow the power of himself and the notebook to bring her back to life.

The author has something to say:

There are big guys in the comments who say it is quite right, of course there are deviations, but it is really amazing w

You must know that when Sakura asked Chuya "Do you have any children" in the first two chapters, no one responded, which made me a little frustrated...【Hey
