I paid too much for Feiwuluo

Getting up early to go to school every day seemed to Alice a bitter ordeal, but the flow of time never seemed to coincide with her subjective somatosensory time.

Chitose, who had just gotten rid of poverty not long ago, didn't know why he suddenly invited all the members of Barbara to have a barbecue.

Alice was very worried about Chitose's wallet, but Chitose told her that it didn't matter, he had prepared two months of fast food and hoarded it in the rented room, and he would never starve to death anyway.

But what she didn't know was that Kusanagi Izumo was the one who paid the bill for the barbecue carnival in the end.

Later, in the last two days of February, the weather with four-five-level southeast-northwest wind and temperature swinging back and forth between 1-4 degrees every day finally warmed up a little.

In those two days, Alice was able to run outside in just a sweater, but the fine weather soon fell back from above the red line of the thermometer.

And with the coming of March like a lion, there is also the last holiday of Alice's first grade.

Because of her math and science test results, Alice failed to complete her vowed goal of being the first in the grade.Fortunately, she got the only full score in English in the whole grade, because the teacher who wrote the question made a mistake in copying and pasting during the typesetting process, and three questions were mixed in the single choice. Questions related to slang" made it difficult for 90.00% of the first-year Xiaodou Ding.

Alice can do it right not because of how smart she is, but purely because Eric, whose native language is English, often quarrels with him in English that Hatta Misaki can't understand. Alice learned a lot of English slang and a little British slang.

After the exam, you have to wait two days to return to school to get the report card before you can start the vacation.

The day before returning to school, Kusanagi took Alice to visit Ikebukuro.Because Alice always remembers to give Mr. Kunikida a pen.

Although the wish of "wanting to buy a copy for the teacher with the money I earned through labor" was not fulfilled, but in the end, this little girl who spent most of her winter vacation lying on the sofa every day was moved around by passers-by, I still chose to use part of the 100 million yen I earned from auctioning insect specimens as purchase funds.

Alice doesn't know how to choose a pen, and in fact Kusanagi Izumo doesn't know how to do it either, but in order to prevent Alice's money from being scammed and abducted to the wrong side, he spent about three days collecting information to study the current market. Types and brands of pens available for purchase.

Together, they settled on a squeeze-type fountain pen with a bamboo-colored main body and a lacquered pine and cypress pattern using the Maki-e technique.

Alice said the color reminded her of Kunikida-sensei's eyes.

"Ms. Kunikida's eyes are beautiful! I like Mr. Kunikida's eyes!" She said, looking at the pen she had chosen with satisfaction.

Kusanagi was taken aback when she heard this, and then rubbed her little head.

While rubbing, he thought, when his little idiot daughter grows up, although there is a high probability that she will be a idiot beauty, she may also be a idiot beauty who is very good at coaxing people to say nice things...

And this pen went into both Alice's and Kusanagi's pens, probably costing a tenth of Alice's small coffers.

That's a pretty big number for a kid.

But Alice didn't even bat an eye when paying the bill.

Although in her world, ice cream is a unit of measurement.And if one-tenth of her savings is exchanged for the cheapest popsicles that can be bought in convenience stores, there is no doubt that Alice, who has not touched any cold food for four months, can achieve popsicle freedom, but Alice's dictionary The word "stingy" rarely appears here.

The shopping guide helped to wrap the pen tightly with a soft velvet cloth, and then carefully put it into the box.

After finishing all this, he took out a piece of exquisite cardboard from the packaging bag, with a beautiful border made of hot stamping.

The shopping guide asked Alice if there was anything she would like to write down along with this gift and send it to the recipient.

Alice raised her head blankly and looked at Kusanagi standing beside her, but got the answer: "You have to think about it yourself."

Just think for yourself.

Alice blinked, picked up the pen, and left her crooked handwriting on the card.

As she wrote, she muttered her simple wishes in a low voice: "I hope the teacher is in good health, works smoothly, and earns more money."

If Kunikida Doppo is lucky enough to know one day in the future that his student's supernatural ability can make her words infinitely approach the effect of following the words, then he will probably understand immediately-why his Heart rate and blood pressure will remain within the normal range that even the doctor would say "your health is a medical miracle from a medical point of view".

After buying the pen she wanted, Alice, who had been full of energy before, suddenly deflated like a deflated pufferfish.Squatting on the ground and refusing to walk, looking up at Kusanagi with his head up, only the words "I want Dad to hug" are written in his two bright blue eyes.

Kusanagi was amused by her, and lightly kicked the toe of her shoe: "It's only a few steps and you can't walk anymore? Get up quickly."

"Don't... Izumo hug..." In order to express her tiredness of walking at this moment, Alice also wrapped her knees in her thick and spacious coat.

"Little friend, how old are you? Why are you still so naughty?" Kusanagi took out a tissue, bent down and wiped the clear snot hanging under Alice's nose - it seemed to be a sign of a cold again, and she had to drink more when she went back hot water.

Having said that, he still hugged Alice.

Alice is seven years old.Although it's hard to notice the change if you look at her every day, in fact, as long as Shishu Tatara takes out a photo of Alice's earliest left in Barbara, everyone will quickly find that she didn't grow very much. Last year Alice, who can still wear the clothes she bought this year, is actually growing up well.

The once round and lovely baby fat on her cheeks has unknowingly faded away. While her chin gradually began to become sharper, her facial features became more and more beautiful.

Maybe in a few years, even if Kusanagi wants to hug him, Alice won't be willing to hug him.

And maybe, she won't even want to see Kusanagi's face when the time comes.

Thinking of the rebellious period that will come one day, Kusanagi couldn't help feeling swollen and sore.

If Izumo Kusanagi puts the two buttons "Press it to stop time immediately" and "Press it to immediately get 1 ton of gold" in front of Izumo Kusanagi, he will definitely slash at the former without hesitation.

On the way back to the underground parking garage of the mall, Alice was attracted by a cotton candy cart that was placed in the open space next to the escalator in the mall.

Earlier, she had not-so-good memories with Ikebukuro and Marshmallow, but now it seems that only the sweetness of Marshmallow is left in Alice's mind.

She said she wanted to eat.

Kusanagi bought one from her.

But Alice quickly stretched out two fingers, compared a pair of rabbit ears, and said she wanted two.

The other one should preferably be strawberry or watermelon, and she will bring it back to Anna.

Of course Kusanagi did as she wished.

While Alice was watching the stall owner pour sugar into the machine and roll out a fluffy white cloud with a bamboo skewer, Kusanagi Izumo caught a glimpse of a person out of the corner of his eye.

Hmm...he couldn't say he was familiar with it, after all, he had only seen this man's face in the information collected by Tian Shan Hanakou.

Black hair, red pupils, slender and handsome - the only thing that doesn't match the information in memory is that this man should be a person with sound limbs, not a person who needs to rely on a wheelchair to move around.

But obviously, he is the type who is very sensitive to other people's sights. It took less than five seconds for Kusanagi Izumo to cast his gaze on this person who was being pushed up in a wheelchair and slowly ascended from the floor below. On Kusanagi's eyes.

But even if he was stared at by strangers, he was still very unmoved, sitting slumped on the wheelchair like a gentleman, and the girl behind him who pushed the wheelchair was obviously struggling—her light onion-colored long hair With the back of her head, she was dressed in a smart dark suit, but no matter in appearance or in reality, she was slimmer than the man in the wheelchair.

The escalators in this shopping mall are sloped rather than stepped. If you don’t want the wheelchair to slide backwards, of course you have to hold it firmly with your body.As for why he didn't put down the handbrake of the wheelchair, it was naturally because of laziness.

I am too lazy to put down the handbrake, and I am too lazy to fiddle with the escalator that is only less than ten meters away.

But the wheelchair plus the weight of an adult man is still heavy.

But the young girl couldn't say anything either.

After all, who can complain that a man with difficulty in mobility cannot get up and walk by himself?

A look of pity flashed across her face.

However, changes come quickly.

When the escalator carrying people climbed slowly from the downstairs to the flat ground, the man in the wheelchair suddenly shook—Kusanagi found that his eyes fell on Alice beside him.

This little guy was short and small, and Kusanagi could easily block most of her. Coupled with the visual obstruction caused by the height difference, it was too late for him to realize that Alice was actually not counting.

But this black-haired and red-eyed Mr. Orihara Rinya, who did not want to be named, seems to have made what he thinks is the wisest judgment.

He stepped on the ground quickly, nimbly, and agilely, almost as if jumping out of a wheelchair-if he is really a disabled person who cannot walk, then his performance at this moment is completely amazing Call it a medical miracle.

Leaving the wheelchair and the girl pushing the wheelchair behind, Orihara Rinya, who never wanted to see anyone or anything related to the Red King, walked away in the direction he came from.Only the kind girl was left standing there in a daze for a while, and then yelled at the back of Orihara Rinya who was quickly going away:

"You, you, you you you you!! You bastard is not a paralytic???!!!"

Rather than saying that the girl is scolding, it is better to say that she is venting her grievances.

Before she could swear, Kusanagi immediately covered Alice's ears.

Children are not allowed to listen to swear words.

The girl who was kind enough to help push the wheelchair was trembling with anger, but because of a sudden call, she could only silently stare at the caller as he ran away, stopped complaining, and answered the phone.

"Hey?"

"……what?"

"……what???"

"I-I passed the exam?! Really!!! Thank you so much, Sakaguchi-senpai!!!"

"Okay! Okay! I will report to Corey on time!!!"

The girl who was pale with anger just now revived with blood after the phone call, her face was flushed, and she had new hope in life.

Alice watched her face change as quickly as a book, silently raised her hand and grabbed the corner of her father's clothes, and hid behind Kusanagi in fear.

Seeing this, Kusanagi touched her forehead, stretched out his hand and hugged Alice into his arms.

Ask Alice to continue focusing on the marshmallows that are forming in front of her.

As for the fact that someone made her wash her cotton candy in the cold wind, and that the subordinates of Ango Sakaguchi of the Supernatural Special Affairs Division hired a new investigator, it was okay for her not to think of it, or not to know it.
