Mr. Fu Hei doesn't think so

Yotsuya Miko is 16 years old this year.

A sophomore in high school, just an ordinary high school girl.

I live in Yokohama City, and I am currently studying at a university in Kanagawa District. I have a close friend who is very close and natural.

Her father had just passed away, and Jianzi now lives with her mother and younger brother.

Before last week, Yotsuya Miko's life had been smooth and uneventful, a normal high school student's daily life.

Of course, such an ordinary routine ended on a rainy day last week.

Yotsuya Miko was waiting for the bus at the time, but without any warning, she suddenly saw the curse spirit.

I can see it very clearly!

At that time, the man-tall mana spirit was standing next to her!

Seeing that Zizi's acting skills exploded, she forced her to pretend to be nonchalant and swiped her phone. In order not to focus on the monster, she let her eyes go blank. god.

It's just that dodging once doesn't mean the matter is over.

Yotsuya Miko's sudden awakening of the visible ability made her life gradually become dire.

As if it was God's bad taste, the hideous-looking curse specially went to Jianzi's side.

No matter at home, on the road, in the alley, on the street or at school, a terrifying monster can always be caught off guard.

I checked countless ways to exorcise evil spirits, such as putting salt piles, wearing Buddhist beads, etc...It was completely useless!

Yoshitani sees her legs weak from being scared every day, but she still has to find excuses to pretend nothing is wrong, even if she is scared and cries, she has to talk to herself and pretend that she was squinted by the wind.

She even had to hold back her tears and pretended not to see a scary-looking curse spirit squatting under the quilt at night.

Jianzi, who had lived a difficult week, held back her tears and trembled: Is this world so dangerous...!

Nor is it true.

Jianzi was born as an ordinary person. Although she inexplicably possessed the ability to see them a week ago, she has been turning a blind eye because she does not have the ability to exorcise them. Therefore, she has no idea about the characteristics of the curse until now.

According to common sense, low-level curses are easier to get together and will not be mixed with high-level curses, because high-level curses will occasionally swallow low-level curses, probably because of the survival instinct.

But the frequency with which Jianzi met the curse spirit was already considered abnormal.

Small fourth-level curses are commonplace, and there are also many third-level curses that are about the size of adults.

I don't know if it's luck or misfortune, at least so far, there haven't been too dangerous magic spirits that attack Jianzi.

But in this case, it is not so much that Jianzi met accidentally... Judging from this frequency, it should be said that the curse spirits were attracted by something.

But Yotsuya Miko didn't know it.

She, who can still see the monster now, has been trying hard to endure in order to pretend not to see it.

She didn't tell anyone about it, she just tried her best to maintain her normal life.

.

day.

Kanagawa Ward, Yokohama City.

The assistant supervisor drove the person to the destination, and explained the mission information to two young first-year magicians on the way.

"Curse the building?"

Hu Zhang leaned against Fu Heihui, looked at the tablet computer in his hand, and slowly read the information written on it.

"[Cursed Building] is just what the nearby residents call the abandoned building. In fact, it was planned to demolish and rebuild it a month ago, but because accidents happen every time construction is carried out, so such rumors were born, and the building is taken for granted. has been put on hold until now."

Ms. Nitta, the auxiliary supervisor with a mouth habit, explained this while driving:

"The people at [Window] went to investigate after receiving the information, and it was confirmed that there was a curse in that building. The information registered by the inspectors was a curse group of level [-] to level [-]. Although it is not strong, but because of the relatively large number There are many, so it is a little troublesome, well, generally speaking, it is a job suitable for first-year freshmen."

Fu Heihui slid his fingertips on the tablet: "A lot of them? The highest curse is level three?"

"It's true at the moment. There are more than a dozen in the preliminary judgment. The latest survey results of [Window] show that the highest is the third level, but the curses have the possibility of mutation. Therefore, I personally suggest that the worst possible existence be done. Preparations for the second-level spell spirit."

Ms. Nitta turned the steering wheel gently, stepped on the brake, raised her hand to move the gear lever, pulled it to the P position, and finally pulled the handbrake.

Supervisor Nitta: "Probably because of this reason, I will hand over this job to you in the first grade. After all, there is Fu Hei-kun here... Ah, here it is, please be careful, I will help [account] ]of."

Fu Heihui and Polygonum cuspidatum got out of the car.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the abandoned building, walked around the barrier rope with [No Entry] tied at the door, and walked forward side by side.

"Is it here? I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that the breath seems to be weaker than expected."

Fu Heihui looked up and said to himself, "But... Forget it, let's go in and have a look first. Hey, Knotweed, do you know how to use spell power now?"

"Yes, Qi Haihai has trained me."

"But you haven't fought against the curse, have you?"

Fu Heihui nodded as he spoke, and raised his slender and beautiful hand. Under the control of his spell power, the shadow flow under his feet rolled up a dagger-sized magic tool from the inside and sent it to Hui's palm.

Hui tilted his head, with long thin eyelashes hanging down, and calmly handed it to his companion beside him: "Just in case, I will give you this spell tool, and absolutely don't let Su Nuo come out. You have to do your best once you get in, if you encounter a difficult guy, don't be rash..."

Knotweed: "Huh? Did you give this to me? The spell...it should be very expensive, right?"

"It doesn't count, not to mention that it's an idle weapon of my bastard father. That guy stuffed all the magic tools that I don't need into my shadow, and there are still a lot of invisible ones inside." Hui put his hands together. pocket, stepped on his own shadow with the tip of his toe: "Anyway, I'm not used to the one I gave you... Take it, it's your entrance gift."

Hu Zhang looked at the shadow under Hui's feet, then at the dagger in his hand, and clenched it tightly.

Then he smiled, his warm brown eyes shining like the sun.

"I will definitely cherish it, Kei!"

"Don't put the cart before the horse, use it when it's time to use it, it doesn't matter if it's broken, protect yourself for me."

"Okay, okay, I will use it to protect Hui... If this magic tool is conscious, I must think so, because Hui is a very gentle master."

Hu Zhang, who was cared by Hui Leng's face, understood for a second what the other party really wanted to express. He couldn't help but bend his eyebrows, wagging his tail like a happy big dog, and quickly followed Fu Heihui's pace .

"...The knife is unconscious."

"It's just an analogy." Knotweed tied the magic tool on the belt of his uniform, then raised his head, and said seriously, "Actually, I just want to protect Kei."

This is the dream that made Knotweed breathless... The 25-year-old Knotweed Yuhito left the deepest impression on his past self.

[I want to protect Kei. ]

[I want to tell the other party my feelings that I couldn't express in the past. ]

Although after resetting the world, just like Tsumiji, only the most emotional Knotweed was retained, and lacking key memories, he still hasn't figured out what the so-called feelings in his heart are, but such a straightforward desire to protect... he can still be clearly distinguished.

——wanted to keep looking at each other.

Hearing this, Fu Heihui paused, raised her beautiful green eyes, and glanced at the knotweed in a daze.

He really wanted to refute something, but after meeting the serious warm brown eyes of Polygonum cuspidatum, he couldn't say anything for no reason.

So in the end, he just frowned, muttered "Idiot" with reddish ears, and then accelerated his forward speed without hesitation.

.

just.

10 minutes after entering the building.

Fu Heihui took the mobile phone to call the supervisor Xintian outside, and the knotweed rubbed the head of the white jade dog next to him.

"Supervisor Nitta, there is nothing in it."

[Eh? ]

"Curse, there isn't a single one in this building. I've already confirmed it with Shikigami. It's too clean."

[How is it possible... During the investigation yesterday, it was confirmed that there were a lot of curses there, could it be exorcised by a passing magician? ]

"I don't know, there is indeed a very obvious trace of the curse here, at least not long ago... It will not be more than an hour, and this place is still the lair of the curse."

While talking, Fu Heihui kicked the knotweed stick lightly with his foot to tell him not to tease the dog anymore, and signaled the other party to learn to concentrate the magic power on the retina to observe the surrounding filth, and then said to the mobile phone:

"...But the problem is that there are no traces of battle found inside, and there is no filth left by the magician. If it was expelled by a passing magician... it can be done without leaving any traces in this situation. There are not many conjurers."

Whenever the mantra is used, it will inevitably leave behind filth.

If there is nothing clean, it can only mean that the person who exorcises the curse is useless at all. Generally speaking, it is not possible, but if it is a sky and curse like Shire or Maki, it can be done by relying on the curse. It's easy to do this.

But if it is that type of magician, the possibility of not leaving any traces of battle is very small. After all, according to [Window]'s information, this is the "cursed building" where a large number of curses have gathered.

Even if it's just a low-level curse, it would be very troublesome if there were too many of them, and none of the waste in the building was recently damaged, even if it was a broken wooden chair, the cracks were full of dust, obviously not because of the battle. destroyed.

[That's weird... How about it, I'm going to apply for formalities with my superiors now, and then go to the nearby police station to check the surveillance here to see if anyone has entered or exited here before, Mr. Fuhei, you guys take a rest nearby Let's go, ah, let's have lunch, and I will notify you as soon as I finish my investigation. ]

……

It is obviously a very simple task logically, why is it so troublesome.

Fu Heihui sighed, and relayed the words of Supervisor Nitta to the knotweed.

"Then let's have a meal!" Knotweed raised his hand excitedly, "I haven't been to Yokohama yet."

Hui struggled for a while, and finally nodded slowly under the expectant eyes of the big dog-like students: "... Anyway, there is no curse here."

"Great, so where should we go? Has Kei ever been to Yokohama?"

"I've been here before, but it's not here in Kanagawa..."

Knotweed came over and watched Hui skillfully take out her mobile phone to search for places to eat around her.

Until the two arrived on the subway.

Hu Zhang blinked suddenly, looked around, and finally quietly looked at the student at the same level who closed his eyes and meditated.

Hui, who had half of her face tucked into the high collar of her uniform, breathed shallowly, her fair skin against the black uniform was striking.

Subconsciously, Polygonum cuspidatum wanted to touch the phone to take a picture.

But this time there was no little black cat as a shield, so the knotweed held back for a while, and finally gave up this idea with great reluctance.

speak up.

...does this count as a date?

This thought popped up out of nowhere, and then Katsuobu Yuhito's head went blank with a bang.

It should not count.

His face was hot, his heart was pounding, and the knotweed twisted his head, looking away from Hui's face, and his back was straight.

.

same location.

Not long ago.

The High School Attached to Lihai University.

"See you, see you, let me tell you, that dog trapped in the cursed building is really cute..."

Hua, who went to school with his best friend, patted his chest, and said happily to Jianzi, who looked a little unlovable beside him: "Although I was scared at first, after all, there are such terrible rumors about that building, and it's still dark." It's painted...but the child who lost the dog was crying so pitifully, and I couldn't bear to let a dog be trapped in the cursed building, but fortunately I mustered up the courage to go in!"

Yotsuya Miko tried very hard to ignore the monster attached to Hua.

The monster seemed to have been trying to touch Xiao Hua with its sharp nails, but it seemed to be blocked by something, so it kept following, but there was no movement.

It's like waiting for an opportunity.

Jianzi spit out his soul: "It's too dangerous..."

"It's all right, I've checked, there are no scary ghosts inside." Hua gave a thumbs up.

Jianzi: "..."

Yes, I have!It's super scary, and it's followed to school!

What should I do, Xiao Hua won't be hurt?How to get rid of this monster?Woo... It looks much scarier than ordinary monsters!

Jianzi frantically searched for ways to exorcise evil spirits with her mobile phone during the class, and then found the location of a shrine that was said to be very effective. She kept it silently. After class, with a pale face, she forcibly pretended to be As if nothing had happened, he approached his best friend who was entangled by the monster.

"Xiaohua... there are only two classes this afternoon, why don't we go to the movies after school?" Jianzi read while holding his mobile phone stick.

"Eh? Good!"

If you don't participate in club activities or are not on duty, you can go home after [-]:[-] pm.

Take Xiaohua to the shrine and beg the gods to save Xiaohua, I don't know if it will help.

Since there are ghosts, there must be gods too, right?

Please, must have!

Jianzi, who has only experienced ghosts for a week, looks calm and calm on the surface, but bears the fear in his heart, worrying about the safety of his best friend to the point that he has nothing to love and trembles.

Don't be afraid, only I can see that monster... and only I can do something for Xiaohua...!

Jianzi wiped away her tears and tried her best to motivate herself.
