cat blues

The two members of the family went out, and suddenly there was only one cat left in the empty room. At night, Yuji the big cat felt quite lonely, rolled on the tatami, and ran to the dormitory area calmly Find the middle and play.

Nakahara Chuya recently wondered if he had encountered a popular saying among girls such as Mercury retrograde. He felt that what he had done recently was not quite right. The reason for the name is that he was under pressure and planned to submit a manuscript to a poetry competition to test the waters, but unfortunately encountered "due to the death of the judge, this Aoba Award was postponed for three months".And his long-awaited game, just announced the delay not long ago.

Nakahara Chuya crossed his arms and felt that there might be something wrong with his luck.

When Yuji Maomao knocked on his door, Chuya was flipping through the literary magazine in his hand, wanting to see if there were any other noteworthy literary awards recently, or new publications to be promoted.

"Ah, Mr. Yukichi, welcome." Nakahara Chuya was very happy when he saw the big cat. He hugged the big black cat vigorously and let it in. "The president and Mr. Ranpo are on a business trip to Kyushu. You recently Come to me, all."

"I protest! Mr. Yukichi, you can come to my place too!" Dazai Osamu's head suddenly appeared on the edge of the window sill near the corridor, and he yelled loudly.

"Wow, where did you come from!" Nakahara was also taken aback by him, and quickly pushed back Dazai Osamu's head, "Go back quickly, don't suddenly appear to scare people!"

"What are you talking about, Chuya, there is no one else who will be scared besides you, right?" Osamu Dazai retracted quickly, then turned around and walked in from the door, hugging Yukichi the big cat Fang, "Mr. Yukichi, do you think so?"

"It's your size, Mr. Yukichi is obviously looking for me!" Nakahara Nakaya just wanted to push the mackerel out.

"Sorry Mr. Yukichi, for disturbing Chuya." Oda Sakunosuke followed and walked in, "Dazai just accompanied me to submit an article, and when I came back, I saw Mr. Yukichi coming to you, so we came together."

"It's fine for Oda to come, mackerel, get out of here quickly."

"Don't even think about it, Mr. Yuji is not yours alone!"

Seeing that the two were fighting like elementary school students again, Yuji Maomao stretched out its cat's paw calmly, each of them touched the top of their head lightly, and then took out two pieces of crab meat croquettes from the basket they carried with them and stuffed them into each other. A piece passed.

"Oh, why did you share this with the slugs!" Osamu Dazai kept bluffing while eating.

And Zhong Yuanzhong also gave him a reply, which was to take a big bite of the croquette in his hand.

Yukichi Maomao ignored the small conflict between them, but took out two more croquettes, handed one to Oda Sakunosuke, and the other to Yosano Akiko who also came out after hearing the sound.

Unlike Sakunosuke Oda who started to eat after saying thanks, Akiko Yosano took the croquette with a smile, "Eating snacks after dinner will always make me fat."

Having said that, Yosano Akiko still ate with a smile, and asked while eating, "Mr. Yukichi, do you want to come to my place to rest tonight? I have been thinking about sleeping with the cat for a long time."

After all, sleeping with the big cat has always been the monopoly of President Fukuzawa. Usually, they have the opportunity to rest with the big cat only when the president is away or during lunch breaks.

Seeing a group of people come to snatch the cat, Zhongya immediately became unhappy, "Mr. Yuji is obviously looking for me!"

"Nonsense, rather than letting Mr. Yukichi sleep with a slug, of course it's better to sleep with me!" Dazai Osamu was not to be outdone.

However, Yukichi the big cat had been away from the center of the Shura field together with Oda Sakunosuke, and it was curiously looking at the magazine in Oda Sakunosuke's assistant and the mailing voucher caught in the magazine.

"Well, I finally made up my mind to submit a manuscript to Iwanami Shoten, and I don't know if I can pass it. After all, Iwanami Shoten is the company where Mr. Natsume Soseki's novels are published." Oda Sakunosuke scratched his head, "I don't know if I can pass it. draft."

"Odasaku's words will definitely work!" Osamu Dazai did not forget to interject when Mingming was in the center of the Shura field.

Oda Sakunosuke nodded calmly, "Thank you Dazai for your encouragement."

"Oda, have you submitted your manuscript? Not bad, it seems that I can't wait any longer, and try to find a suitable publishing house." In order to be able to accurately distinguish myself from Osamu Dazai, even if "Saku Oda "This title is so magical that people will habitually call it out after hearing it once, and Zhongyuan Zhong also refuses to change his words.

Hearing this, the big cat immediately pricked up its ears. It quickly took out another magazine from the basket and spread it out in front of Chuya.

"Huh?" Zhong Yuanzhong also didn't care about bickering with them, carefully looked at the inside pages of the magazine in front of him, and then said helplessly, "Mr. Yuji, this is a call for contributions to lyrics, not poetry. .”

Yuji Maomao tilted his head, apparently not understanding what he meant, but just looked at him with shining eyes.

"Isn't this pretty good?" Dazai Osamu who was on the side seemed kind, but in fact said with some sarcasm.

"I think it's okay too, after all, Chuya, haven't you written lyrics too?" Yosano Akiko also popped up and said.

"Why do you know that too!" Nakahara Chuya blushed completely.

"Oh, you hummed unconsciously last time." Akiko shrugged.

The thin-skinned young man's face flushed instantly, and when the red light flashed on his body, he wanted to use his supernatural power to push them all out, but Dazai Osamu grabbed his hand quickly, and activated Disqualification in the World, Nakahara Chuya's Ability is forcibly erased.

"Chuya, it's not a good behavior to run away if you can't say it." Dazai Osamu said with a smile, took a look at the magazine in front of him, and couldn't help whistling, "Chuya, this call for lyrics There is a bonus, 50."

Zhongya Nakahara took the magazine angrily and looked at it carefully, and then looked at the money-greedy big cat with staring eyes, and sighed helplessly, "I know, I know, I'm going to contribute now Try it, but I don't know if I can pass it! Don't expect too much from me!"

"Really? I think you sing very well, Chuya." Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help but praised.

"Oh, Odasaku, I sing really well too."

"Is that so? You are not allowed to run away when we go to karaoke together!"

"You guys, go back to your own rooms!" Chuya roared angrily.

Early the next morning, Zhong Yuanzhong was on his way to school, so he went to the post office honestly to send the song he wrote.

On the other hand, Yukichi Tomako decided to go out today to see the streets where monsters often gather, and the shops that are said to be opened by monsters.

The big cat was also curious about what kind of shops the monsters are like before. Later, Nuliang Yubao told it that it is not so magical. Most of the shops also accept human currency. It exists like a small mobile vendor, which makes it feel at ease.

The Youkai Market in Yokohama is pitifully small, and because of the lack of a strong organizational protection, the Youkai Market had to be opened on the side of Radium Bowl Street, relying on the remaining breath of the Rage God to protect them.

This time the big cat is walking the path of monsters, which does not need to pass through the human-inhabited area. The two roads are like two parallel worlds. From here, you can see the human world, but humans can see it. less than them.So when the big cat walked to the monster market, the whole cat was very relaxed.

Most of the things in the monster market are not used by cats, and neither are people in the detective agency. The most popular commodity here is wine. No one is drinking.On the contrary, Yujimaomao is very interested in the medicine shop that few people care about.

Most of the medicines sold here are wound medicines for external use, and there are also some magical bandages that can quickly heal trauma according to the shop owner.Since yokai are generally pretty good at healing themselves, there's a serious lack of market for these things here.

But for Yuji Maomao, these are very good medicines, and it is better to buy them back and keep them ready than in case any of them run into each other and have to use her supernatural powers with Yosano Akiko—see and thank you Da Mao, who had killed a fish five or six times in order to practice her supernatural powers, thought in shock.

There are also strange medicinal herbs in this shop, which the owner of the shop collected from the mountains, and they don't know what they are used for, so they are given as a gift to the big cat Yuji who bought all the wound medicine and bandages.

When Big Cat Yuji was walking back with two big bags of medicine, he heard a girl's soft call on the way, "Brother, brother!"

Yuji Maomao cautiously poked his head out to look out. The path of monsters and the world of humans are mixed together. Once you leave the path, you have to find another entrance.

"Brother, hold on!" The thin girl struggled to support a young man walking along the narrow path. The young man seemed to have been injured and passed out, so he could only lean on his sister's shoulders. They walked all the way, and the road was full of dripping bloodstains.

The big cat hesitated for a long time, looked at the bag in his hand, then at the dying boy and the boy who wanted to cry but couldn't cry, so he could only grit his teeth and call his brother softly while walking forward girl.It finally chose to step out.

When Akutagawa Gin was walking forward with all his strength, he suddenly saw a hand stretched out in front of him, holding a roll of bandages in that hand, and when he looked up again, he saw a man who didn't look very easy to mess with looked down upon them.

Akutagawa Gin shivered subconsciously, but woke up his brother beside him. Akutagawa Ryunosuke tried to open his eyes, and saw a big cat standing in front of his siblings, holding a roll of bandages in the cat's paws and handing it over.He originally thought that if there was some strange character, he would use Rashomon to kill him, but...

"Cat?" Akutagawa Ryunosuke murmured incomprehensibly, and then passed out again.

Akutagawa Gin was a little puzzled, but only saw the "person" in front of him handed the bandage to her again, and then she realized that this person really did not have any malicious intentions. She looked at this person, and then at the person who was still bleeding I had no choice but to put down my brother, took the bandage, and wrapped it around my brother clumsily.

Seeing this, the big cat hurried over to remove the bandage wrapped around the girl, untied the boy's clothes, carefully took out a spray from the bag, sprayed it on the wound first, and then picked up the bandage and wrapped it carefully , after all, I have helped Osamu Dazai a lot, and it has long been practiced.
