【Are you afraid of a person wearing a ghost mask, or a ghost wearing a human mask? 】

……

late at night.

The sound of sharpening knives came from the dream.

The sound of the blade sinking into the skin.

The severe gasp after waking up from the nightmare.

The old man stepped out of the quilt, knelt and sat on the tatami, looked in the mirror, and looked at the old face covered with ditches in the mirror.

"It's still close..." He said softly, "It's still close."

He knelt straight, his hands didn't move, but his reflection in the mirror suddenly raised his hand, and slowly put on a ferocious pitch-black mask that appeared in his hand at some unknown time.

The old streets of Kyoto are still immersed in the night, and even the calls of wild cats become weak in winter nights.The cloud and ink billowing in the courtyard seemed to find a nest and gathered into the cuffs of the young man's kimono.

The inside of Xia Youjie's cuffs became pitch black, and upon careful inspection, one could find distorted traces intertwined with ink, which could confuse the viewer's reason and thinking into a vortex.

Xia Youjie: "Take off your clothes."

99 Chao: "Don't you think your speech looks like a pervert?"

"At least let Momijikari take a look." The words seemed to be squeezed out between teeth.

"It's useless," said the young man with reason, "Momiji Kari can only heal the injuries he caused himself. I just got a little bit of a curse on it. It's like a bruise and it will heal within a week!"

Xia Youjie lowered his voice: "Don't you have anything to explain to me?"

99 becomes a little wary at this point, "Uh, thanks for caring?"

Because I was touched by the concern, but whether there is a heart behind this concern to prevent him from accidentally dying outside in the future, it is better to kill him on the spot and make him a curse spirit, so he dare not move.

His onmyoji is really humble.

Xia Youjie seemed to know what he was thinking, and frowned tightly, looking very dissatisfied, but he seemed to have remembered something, and the corners of his mouth were flattened, not wanting to argue anymore.

After all, seriously, who is he from the 99 Dynasty?

People are already injured, and they are still out of his sight. Apart from being dissatisfied that he didn't follow up on the clues he found, what else can he do?

What's more, in 99 Chao, there is nothing unreasonable in speculating on his concern.

Next to him, 99 looked at his expression and felt a little strange, so he approached carefully and found that there was nothing wrong, so he asked, "Would you like to pour tea or should I?"

It stands to reason that the host would make tea when entertaining guests, but Xia Youjie was mostly drinking tea at home recently, and 99 Chao didn't like tea too much, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with letting the former go to the kitchen.

In short, he is very natural, making Xia Youjie gnash his teeth but just right enough not to make trouble.

In the Japanese room on the other side, I heard the footsteps of the young man going to the kitchen, and the housekeeper held a lollipop in his mouth, "I understand what you said."

Gojo Satoru sat carelessly: "There are more interesting things."

Because it was already late at night, the few people didn't talk for a long time, and the family was not an ordinary person, and they didn't get overwhelmed with surprise after seeing Xia Youjie.It was only due to the scrutiny of professionals. After she found out that the other party had indeed become a spirit body with self-awareness, she didn't intend to investigate the reason further.

"I thought you would want to dissect summer oil." 99 Chao said.

The female doctor looked over lazily: "Spiritual bodies are a very common existence, no different from monsters or cursed spirits—for me. On the contrary, I haven't seen many half-demons, so I want to dissect you. "

99 Chao immediately withdrew his seat. I didn't understand what you said, so I'm sorry.

Ah, back pain.

On the other hand, Xia Youjie, apart from having a sense of familiarity when housekeeper enters the glass, so he doesn't need to treat him like a stranger, other feelings are the same as when Wujo Wu talked about the past, and he doesn't remember the slightest memory.

Before the person involved could react, the two people across the table spoke first.

Gojo Satoru: "It's over, Jie couldn't be fooled by Yuta at the time, right? Obviously, there will be no problem when I see you later."

Jia Ruozi: "I don't know how to cure the brain, especially the brain of the spirit body. If you are stupid, just be stupid. I haven't seen how smart it is before."

Xia Youjie: "..."

99 Chao next to him was relieved, this beautiful doctor is indeed a friend of these two, and the strength to hurt others is the most powerful, reliable!

Then he exchanged email addresses with Jia Ruzizi, planning to have a chat with someone alone later, asking if he wanted to stay overnight, but was rejected, so he sent the two of them out.

"Are the high school doctors busy?"

"It's open all year round, so I really hope that guy can quickly take care of the magic world."

99 Chao said sincerely: "It's been hard work."

"But before I leave, I think I can clarify."

In the night, the female doctor and the boy walked side by side, as if chatting, "I don't need six eyes, I'll know when I see Jie."

99 Chao: "What?"

"That's Jay, if it's not a fragment or a curse, the reason..."

The female expression was indifferent, "It's the sixth sense."

99 Chao couldn't understand Gojo Satoru's so-called surprise behavior, but he could understand what Jiarui Glass said, so he looked at her brightly for a while, and said, "Xia You really has very good friends."

"Really," the female doctor lowered her eyes slightly, and teased for the first time tonight, "Then please, I won't say anything, but if Jie later recovers his memory and makes a move on you, I can give you half the price. "

"..."

99 Chao dryly agreed to this request, "Why don't you expect something better?"

Jia Ruozi waved his hand and didn't speak any more.

After seeing off the people, it was already a little dark, Xia Youjie didn't let 99 Zhao take off his clothes, but called Bailu back to exchange ideas, he didn't forget that he had borrowed the shikigami.The culprit stood helplessly by the side for a while, pretending to be pitiful and organizing his sentences, as if he was ready to show his emotion and reason.

But Xia Youjie raised his chin and sent him to sleep.

"We'll talk about it tomorrow."

99 Chao: Oh.

……

One day before, April Yi rejected Xia Youjie's wish because Xia Youjie couldn't afford to know the past of the boy.

"You can ask him yourself, he won't think it's an unspoken secret." The manager of the wish store suggested intimately.

The long-haired young man gave another light laugh, neither ironic nor happy, "But what he wants to hide, no matter how he asks, he can use superficial language to perfuse it."

99 Chao disdain to lie, just like foxes never use lies to show their cunning, the natural language art allows them to induce others to think in a direction without knowing it.

April [-] This time, don't you say that you know him very well, the interest in your eyes is even more intense, "You care about him very much."

Xia Youjie was noncommittal, but saw the manager of the wish store smile and said to himself, "Then give me a gift."

April [-]: "Your concern will definitely be speculated maliciously by him, because of the influence of the environment in which he grew up and the people he came into contact with later - to be clear, he can't tell the good from the bad."

There are two cases of being unable to distinguish between good and bad people. One is to think that all people are good people, and the other is to think that people are all bad people.If the former is not pure in temperament, then he is full of good hopes for people and qualities, while the latter is the opposite disappointment.

"99 Chao wants to go one step further. He knows that his view is wrong, because everyone in Yumenyuan's family has the blood of monsters. It just so happens that many monsters will hate him because of the curse on him."

April [-]st smiled at the young man with an increasingly surprised expression, "So he is just using this wrong concept to restrain himself, not to hurt others, and then try to observe human beings and correct his own views. But this correction does not seem to be very successful , I don’t know if he has any new methods.”

Xia Youjie froze in place after hearing these words.

That would explain it, he thought suddenly.

This can explain many things.

When he knew about his previous experience, Xia Youjie subconsciously wondered if 99 Chao would feel disgusted with him.

But the other party seemed to find that he cared about this, and he didn't feel disgusted, and even jokingly said, "Do I look like a good person?" Such comfort.

Could the onmyoji who helped Hongyekari and Bailu be a villain?He asked back in his heart.

So Xia Youjie did not ignore this problem.

He knew that 99 Chao was very clear-headed, and would not believe everything just based on Wujo Wu's words, maybe he would investigate his own deeds alone, and then gradually distance himself from him in life.

But the young man's performance was as usual, so normal that Xia Youjie felt a little disobedient, like an extra knot on a beautiful rope, not ugly, but just not lovable.

Now that the words on April [-] unraveled the knot, he saw that it was a dark line, so he covered it with a knot.

If he asks about 99 Chao's past, I'm afraid what will be concealed will be this period of normal performance, and he is trying to repair his behavior.

"He... came up with a new way."

After losing his voice, the long-haired young man said as if he was talking to himself, "Don't look at the truth or the fake, don't look at the good or bad, just look at the cause and effect."

[For me, language is not true or false, people are not good or bad, things are unknown if they don’t happen, I only look at cause and effect. 】

Even with the star map in his eyes, he is still trying to believe that the trajectory of fate is uncertain and worth looking forward to.

Even if you don't believe in the goodwill of others, you are still trying to identify one lie after another.

The young man's eyes were suddenly far away, with a little puzzlement and a little bit of bewilderment.He thought of the young man's eyes that are always focused on observation, like a small animal in a cage silently watching the behavior of all kinds of human beings.

Xia Youjie was in a complicated mood, but he could only repeat, word by word, "This is his way."

The author has something to say:
