Kumamoto Prefecture, Yahara, inside a 24-hour convenience store——

"Can I ask one last question?"

"Excuse me, Mr. Ghost Lamp."

The sharp and cold eyes of the man pierced straight through like a blade, and the words that came out of his mouth seemed to be as sharp as the venom spit out by a poisonous snake: "Will this fog have any effect on the innocent? It would give me a headache if there were serious crimes and mass deaths."

"Innocent people are not within my hunting range. I prefer curse spirits and demons with deep negative emotions. This is my last bottom line." The son of Akutagawa Takashi said calmly and indifferently, "And even those guys, what I have adopted It is also the principle of 'voluntariness'."

"'Voluntary'?" Ghost Lantern narrowed his eyes, as if realizing something.

"'Voluntary', isn't it good." Akutagawa Ryoko raised a hand to cover his mouth, as if he wanted to cough, but the ghost lamp saw that this person was smiling, which made people creepy smile.

Ghost Lamp also smiled, although the smile always made people who knew him feel bad when it appeared on his face, he didn't ask any more questions, and continued: "It's very good, I should leave soon, but the dead will Guy running around."

"Okay, thank you for your patronage." Akutagawa Ryo's son bowed slightly to the ghost lamp.

"Goodbye then, I think we'll see each other again, Miss Akutagawa."

Ghost Lantern dragged the deceased who was stunned by his mace in one hand, and walked out of the convenience store with the mace he suddenly took out out of thin air from nowhere in the other hand, and walked out of the convenience store. Disappeared in the mist for a moment.

This fog is the first time that Akutagawa Ryoko's son actively summoned it to use. It is a very wonderful feeling, as if being wrapped in mother's amniotic fluid, it feels at ease and comfortable. The thick fog hinders the sight of Akutagawa Ryoko's son very little.

As long as she thought about it, the fog seemed to be able to turn into water enough to submerge and suffocate people, covering and submerging the entire town in this way, forming an extremely special water area, but she had no reason and no idea to do so.

"Akutagawa-san—has the customer gone?" About a few minutes later, the store manager's voice came from the storage room. He still looked a little smiling, but it didn't bother him. No matter how small the voice was, Akutagawa Ryo's son could hear it clearly: "Can you come over and help me?"

"Yes." Akutagawa Takashi's son walked over, and saw the store manager who was holding up the goods that were about to fall over. When the store manager saw her coming, he saw her as a savior.

"Akutagawa-san!"

Although Akutagawa Ryo's son was slender, her strength should not be underestimated. She pushed back the column of goods that was about to be dumped with one hand.

"Shop manager, be careful, is there anything that needs to be taken out to replenish the shelves?" Akutagawa Takashi's son asked politely.

"I don't need it today, I'm just counting the goods, but I don't know why... probably it was a mouse, it suddenly ran over, and the goods fell down." The store manager patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "It scared me. Akutagawa-san is really kind."

"It's absurd." Akutagawa Takashi's son bent down to pick up the counting bill and pen that fell on the floor because the store manager went to support the dumped goods, and handed them to the store manager, "You dropped it."

"Thank you~" The store manager took the bill and the pen, "By the way, Akutagawa-san~"

"Huh?" Akutagawa Takashi's son greeted the store manager with an expressionless smile that could be said to be hospitable.

"Before the fog clears~ Akutagawa-san won't go home, right~" the shop manager cupped his face and laughed, "Alone with Akutagawa-san~"

"No, I want to go home, I think the fog will clear up soon, the store manager, don't think too much." Akutagawa Ryoko said ruthlessly with the store manager's expectant dog eyes.

"Eh--"

The store manager and Akutagawa Ryoko walked out of the storage room together, looking at the mist clinging to the glass like a swollen sea full of interest, the more you stare, the more twisted and expanded the mist seems to be. It was filled to the point where the glass could not bear the impending shattering in seconds, and then it poured in like sea water, engulfing everything——

"The store manager." The voice of Akutagawa Takashi's son recalled the store manager's will that was almost caught in the fear of the picture in his mind, "The fog won't come in, and don't keep staring at it."

——How did Akutagawa-san know what she was thinking...

"Ah... um!" The store manager was startled when he came back to his senses, and forced a smile, "It's really scary, this fog."

"...Yes." Akutagawa Ryo's son looked out flatly, and echoed without much real emotion: "It's terrible."

The fog is getting thicker and thicker. Although it is so hard to see, the fog has already materialized at this moment, like a living white object, and the window is banging, making people unable to help but doubt, use their own reason to doubt , is the fog beating on the window or the wind?Or a stone thrown by a naughty child?

There was still silence outside the window, and the Fujiwara family was peaceful.

Lin Suo, who was wearing the body of Knotweed Kaori, couldn't sleep at all. He looked at Knotweed Jen from the corner of his eye, who was sleeping very deeply. The thick fog did not make Fujiwara and his wife and Knotweed feel the slightest bit of uneasiness. On the contrary, it made them very relaxed, and they fell asleep as soon as they closed their eyes. Xiao Youren obviously saw the same thing as Lisuo before, and cried out in fear, but at this moment, he fell asleep very peacefully. The movement was completely unnoticed.

"Du..."

"Tude."

"Tuk!"

The sound of heavy knocking on the window gradually became hasty and chaotic, as if someone was outside trying to struggle inside and ask for help. He looked at the window, and even if the curtains were drawn, he could tell the difference between light and darkness. Outside, the white mist exuding a strange light cast a light cloth on the curtains, just like the curtains of a movie theater.

Countless skinny and hideous shadows like dead branches crowded around the window, somewhat transparent, like overlapping horror shadow puppets, murmured full of desire and malice, and slapped the window rustlingly, like Those in the invitation room are invited to join them.

Existences like conjurers have long been fearless of ghosts and monsters. What they fear is that their own weakness will make them unable to face stronger enemies.

But Yan Suo felt a completely different kind of depression and treachery when facing monsters and cursed spirits...more deeply and insanely.

Ever since he determined his ideal, Lisuo has never felt such a strong temptation, as if his soul is about to follow him involuntarily, abandoning everything to pursue the pure fear and unknown, and the contact with these non-worldly things Every minute and every second is quickly draining his willpower and reason.

[Master Longzi...]

Dragon son?

Yan Suo couldn't tell whether he had fallen asleep, whether he was in reality or a dream, and he heard a rattling, like the sound of a clock's hands turning with gears.

No one cast spells on him, but the cursed ominousness had clung to his back like maggots.

Spend the night of the first day like this.

"'Xaori', you don't seem to be in good spirits." Hu Zhangren walked in, and when he woke up, he said, "It's really abnormal, you sleep so deeply, do you think it's very relaxing here? Me and Mr. Zi talked for a while, planning to bring dad over to play if possible, and let the old man take care of himself."

Li Suo was dizzy, so he asked, "Has the fog cleared?"

"No." Hu Zhangren opened the curtain with one hand, "I don't know how long it will take."

"Where's Youren?" Yan Suo suddenly found that Hu Zhangren, who loved his son like his life, didn't hold Xiao Youren.

"Ms. Akutagawa came back from the night shift. I happened to meet her when I took Yuren down. I entrusted Yuren to Miss Akutagawa for the time being. Natsume-kun is a very gentle and good boy. They both like Yuren very much." Speaking of this, Hu Zhangren, who had no worries at all, couldn't help laughing, and the image of a girl who was at a loss but cautiously holding Xiao Youren, and a young boy on the side holding a small bowl and feeding Xiao Youren clumsily and carefully picture.

Hu Zhangren couldn't have any empathy with Yansuo at all, and couldn't understand what Yansuo saw last night, so he just said: "I came up to call you, you slept deeply, this is not your usual style."

After hearing the word "Miss Akutagawa", the creepy feeling crept into her heart again. It seemed that everything started when she saw the son of Ryo Akutagawa, whether it was the weird sight or the thick fog, or the sight outside the window last night. shadow puppets.

As what Hu Zhangjin said, it is Akutagawa Takashi and Natsume Takashi who are taking care of Xiao Youren downstairs.

Xiao Youren is very obedient, neither crying nor fussing, with a sweet smile on his face, after taking a bite of Aunt Tazi's special baby meal, Xiao Youren opened his amber eyes wide, the eyes sparkled, delicious I had to pat the little hand straight, very flattering, staring at Natsume Takashi who was holding the bowl, while clapping the little hand again and again to express his admiration for Fujiwara Toko's craftsmanship, while waiting expectantly for the next sip.

Natsume Takashi was so cute, he took another spoonful and fed it to Xiao Youren's mouth: "Ah~"

"Ah~" Xiao Yuren's milky voice imitated Natsume Takashi's ah, and he opened his mouth wide, and swallowed the spoon that Natsume Takashi fed him with a whimper.

Natsume Takashi gently took out the spoon from Yuuhito's mouth, and watched the child's pink flowers fluttering contentedly, and his mood became better and better. Because of the sudden heavy fog, he didn't have to go to school today. Yahara's default special vacation is gone.

The son of Ryo Akutagawa, who was sitting on a chair with Yuren in his arms, lowered his head and squeezed Yuren's pink and soft face. The little guy raised his head suspiciously and looked at the beautiful young lady who was holding him, showing a brilliant and healing look. Smiling, seeing Akutagawa Ryo's son's calm but full of vitality pale pink eyes quietly looking at him, Xiao Youren showed a look of deja vu, and then suddenly realized, the little short hand grabbed his soft pink eyes. hair.

Like to say, I have this color too!We are the same!

Akutagawa Ryo's son was taken aback.

"It's so cute, Yuuhito-kun." Natsume Takashi, who moved a chair and sat in front of Akutagawa Ryoko, said to Akutagawa Ryoko with a smile, although the eyes of his mother, Ms. Kaori, made Natsume Takashi shudder Something was wrong, and even the alarm bells rang in my mind, but it did not hinder Natsume Takashi's love for Yuuhito at all.

"...Hmm." Akutagawa Takashi's son seemed to agree with Natsume Takashi's words reluctantly, and in her mind, her younger brother Gin was the cutest in the world.

The hem of Akutagawa Ryo's son raised a corner of his clothes slightly, and the cat teacher who had finished his breakfast also seemed to notice something strange and then raised his head. He licked his paws and wiped it like an ordinary cat. Wiping his face, he glanced sideways at the hem of Akutagawa Ryo's son's clothes from the corner of his eye, and the faint red light from under the hem made him quickly withdraw his corner of the eye and look towards the door.

The woman who walked in was visibly depressed, while Polygonum cuspidatum was in good condition. It can be seen that she woke up naturally after a dreamless night's sleep last night, but this 'Xaori' was not necessarily so.

Teacher Cat snorted coldly in his heart. He noticed yesterday that this woman seemed to have taken a fancy to Natsume, but probably because of the feelings and secret influence that Akutagawa Takashi's son gave her, this person did not do anything easily, let alone have the opportunity to do anything. By the time this guy leaves Yayuan, I'm afraid his mental state has changed drastically.

And has the girl Akutagawa noticed that the monster hidden behind her is half asleep and half awake and unwilling to fall into a deep sleep again? Her growth seems to be in sync with the growth of that terrifying existence. Will Akutagawa one day Will it open that taboo door and let that monster truly come into the world?

"Mr. Cat, have you finished eating yet?"

Teacher Cat raised her head to look at Akutagawa Ryo's son when he heard the sound, and saw that Akutagawa Ryo's son frowned slightly under his silent gaze, and tilted his head slightly suspiciously, and Xiao Youruto, who was sitting on her lap, followed suit. The son of Jie Chuan Long tilted his head, and the son of Jie Chuan Long straightened the child's head with a straight face: "Eat well."

Xiao Youren raised his head and glanced at the expression of Akutagawa Ryo's son, then tilted his head again with a straight face, babbled and vaguely repeated Akutagawa Ryo's son's words, it seems that he must imitate her like this It looks like Teacher Cat.

Children in this age group will imitate the behavior of those around them. It is normal for Yuuhito to like the beautiful son of Akutagawa Ryoko and try to imitate her behavior. Seeing Xiao Youren so excited, she was stupid and didn't know what to say to dissuade her for a while, and it seemed that from the child's point of view, her fierce appearance was worth learning.

—Trying to imitate her to confuse her will and thoughts, and let her care for him as a cub of the same race?Hmph, human cubs are really cunning.

Akutagawa Takashi's son was struggling with his inner thoughts, and finally came to such a conclusion.

"Don't tilt your head while eating." So she continued to seriously correct the child's irregular eating posture.

"Cihua... fluttering... wow!"

Akutagawa Takashi's eyes became sharper. She raised her hand to stop Natsume Takashi from feeding, and began to try to correct the child's pronunciation. It was very serious, and it made people feel that she was a bit of a dead end. After all, a one-year-old child's pronunciation Non-standard is simply a matter of course.

But Akutagawa Ryo's son didn't think so. She could see that the child was extraordinary, and a strong person should be cultivated from an early age, so she tried to correct each word: "Eat."

"Second-rate!"

"eat."

"Time!" Xiao Youren, who couldn't pronounce properly, patted the small table of the baby chair anxiously, tears began to well up in his eyes, not because he thought there was something wrong with the pretty sister correcting his pronunciation, but because he I couldn't even read the words right, so I cried in anger, "Once——"

"Natsume, cover his mouth with food." Faced with Yuuhito's offensive of tears, Akutagawa Takashi's son froze, gave up, and looked at Natsume Takashi with eyes that he didn't realize were asking for help.

Natsume Takashi couldn't help laughing out, Yuuhito's immature and clumsy pronunciation seems to have been converted from baby language, but it can also be seen that he is really working hard to imitate Akutagawa Takashi's son, and his tone is all fierce and fierce of.

Shigeru Fujiwara, who pretended to be reading the newspaper, and Toko Fujiwara, who was frying eggs, couldn't pretend anymore, and laughed. The son of Akutagawa Takashi frowned slightly, and couldn't find a laughing point at all.

The author has something to say:

【Things behind the scenes】:

The first time I went on a mission with my friends, I ran into a quasi-superior curse fetus, and Knotabagi Hisohito was full of determination.

Sister Akutagawa said that as a strong man, he should directly step on his weaker enemies without giving any chance to fight back.

But Natsume said that if the goal can be communicated and resolved by non-violent means, better results may be achieved.

The curse spirits can communicate, and the four super curse spirits in sister Akutagawa's house can communicate, and they even took him to play with them when he was a child!

Fu Heihui: Knotweed, what are you doing.

Youruhito: I'm trying to communicate with the other party, do you think it understands human speech?Feeling silly.

Fu Heihui: ...I think your idea is a bit unrealistic, it's coming!

Youruto: (Caught off guard and suddenly being knocked into the air, physical tears burst out) Hiss...ah, that's terrible.

Son of Ryo Akutagawa: (coming out of Youruhito's shadow with a grim expression) Shame on me, get out of the battlefield.

Yuren: Yes! ! !I'm so sorry! ! !

Fu Heihui: (Is this the shikigami of Polygonum cuspidatum?! It feels too strong!)! ! !

afterwards--

Fu Heihui: Knotweed, tell the truth, that...cough, that is your shikigami?

Yuhito: She is the older sister who brought me up, there is no blood relationship, but Akutagawa-san loves me very much (thumbs up), just like my own sister, even though it hurts to beat someone.

Fu Heihui: She looks very angry (it feels like she is so angry that she can't wait to kill you and you together).

Yuhito: Because Akutagawa-san said that the strong should not let the weak—especially the enemy see their tears.

Fu Heihui: ... I feel that if you go back with the knotweed stick, you will be hit by a dozen. I don't know why.

Youruhito: It’s okay, just cry.

Fu Heihui: Will she soften her heart?

Youren: (with a hearty smile) She will strike lightly, this trick has been used too many times, it is not as good as when she was a child.

Fu Heihui: ... (too many slots, don't know where to start)
