"...So, bandages, why did you come here?" Yosano Akiko looked at the boy sitting in the back seat of the car playing the rope game with Natsume Takashi from the rearview mirror, and silently raised his hand to his forehead, "Why? ,Didn’t you make a video call to the scarf with the hat today?”

"Hey, I can't help it. After all, my unreliable father wants to go out with you. For your personal safety, I can only sacrifice a little."

Dazai Bandage sighed very maturely: "The task of video calling is left to the hat and glasses."

Osamu Dazai poked his head quietly and said, "I said, am I the kind of guy who needs my own children to watch over me?"

Dazai Bandage and Natsume Takashi looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

After staying with the two Zaike creatures for a long time, Natsume Takashi has developed a little bit of shameless ability. He said with erratic eyes: "Well, bandages are more reliable than you, Mr. Dazai."

Dazai Bandage echoed, "That's right!"

Dazai Osamu: "..."

With a hideous face, he reached out and pinched a child's face with one hand, and pinched it hard: "Okay, do you want to rebel?"

"Oh, it hurts so much! Dad let go!"

Yosano Akiko felt bored, she couldn't bear to close her eyes, stopped looking at these funny comparisons, and turned to the girls sitting next to her and said, "Going to Yayuan this time, do you have any ideas? "

Yu Xie Ye machete scratched his hair in distress: "Well, no... Anyway, I'm going to find monsters, and ask if there is any novelty."

"But the bandages also came along, so there's no surprise at all." She said discouragedly.

Dazai's bandage was pinched by his father, and he said vaguely: "What's the matter, anyway, we won't act together with you, and we don't know what gift you will give me at all!"

The boy broke free from Osamu Dazai's hand, leaned over to the girl in the front seat, and said with a "hehe" smile, "So it's also a gift worth looking forward to! When you find it, give it to me in the New Year!"

He held the boy's face with Xie Ye's machete and pushed him back: "I know, I know."

After they came to Yahara by train this time, they rented a van to drive. Due to Osamu Dazai's unreliability, they might have a car accident with a car of people, so Yosano Akiko was the driver, waiting to go After arriving at their place of residence, they will divide into two groups and move freely in Yahara.

Because the girls want to find monsters, Natsume Takashi will follow them, and the father and son will play by themselves.

Looking at the two dogs who looked like dogs who opened the door and rushed out to have fun in an instant, Yosano Akiko said helplessly: "They won't have trouble playing, right? I remember they seemed to say that they were going to make trouble for the exorcist? "

Natsume Takashi hesitated and said, "I guess not? Mr. Dazai is so smart, and the bandage can carry him away."

"The things that the bandages gave me before are still there," the boy shook a bandage tied around his wrist. "If they need help with anything, the bandages will let me know, so don't worry."

"That's right, that guy Dazai is full of vitality, don't care about him."

Yosano Akiko thought about it for a while and thought it was the same, and then left them behind: "Then where are we going to find monsters?"

He suggested to Xie Ye Butterfly: "In the forest?"

"There should be quite a few in the forest..." Natsume Takashi recalled that he often encountered monsters in the woods and forests, "But if we look for them rashly, they won't appear, right?"

"That's true." Yosano Machete frowned slightly, "Speaking of which, Natsume-kun, are you okay? You used to hate contact with monsters, right?"

When they came over, they asked Natsume Takashi if he wanted to follow, and it didn't matter if he didn't follow, at worst, they would find monsters through the channel of eliminating demon masters, which might cause some unnecessary conflicts.

Natsume Takashi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I have met good monsters before, not every time I was chased and ran away, and..."

The boy was a little shy while talking, and said hesitatingly: "And it feels like the past has passed for a long time, I thought I would be afraid to stand here, but this time there are everyone by my side, so I don't think it matters gone."

"Because I'm not alone."

Yosano Machete laughed loudly, she reached out and patted Natsume Takashi's shoulder: "Okay, then I will cover you! If there is a monster bullying you, I will take a knife and hack it to death!"

"My knife is very sharp!"

"Yeah!" Natsume Takashi nodded shyly with a smile, "Some big monsters don't show up easily, and small monsters are generally quite cute. I met a kappa by the river before, let's ask it. Don't know something special."

"Let's go!"

A group of people happily left the hotel and walked on the small road in the town. I have to say that the environment in Yahara is really good. Walking on the road with Akiko Yosano, I always feel that the air in Yokohama smells like gunpowder smoke .

"Sure enough, there are still too many mafia." Yosano Akiko sniffled, "Yokohama also has the salty sea breeze, which is different from the air here. It seems that traveling occasionally can change your mood."

Xie Ye Die said: "Then when the New Year is off, let's find a comfortable place for vacation?"

Yosano Akiko promised: "Okay, let's see when the time comes, you can go wherever you want."

"Ah! It's a kappa!" When the girls were communicating, Natsume Takashi saw the green creature lying on the side of the road from a distance, trotted over, squatted in front of it, and asked, "Why are you here in such a cold weather?" Outside?"

The Kappa lay on the ground sleepily, and replied: "Hey, don't mention it, it's rare to come out to play, but when I went back, I found that the water was frozen. I bumped it a few times, but I didn't break it, and my head was swollen. .”

Natsume Takashi took a closer look, and it was true that there was a swelling on the kappa's head, he blinked in surprise: "But it takes a long time to get thick ice on the water surface, you probably haven't been out for a long time , Why did it freeze when you went back? Did you find the wrong place?"

Kappa was dumbfounded.

"Yes, is it?"

It's cold, and its brain is a little hard to use.

"Pfft," Natsume Takashi clapped his hands and said, "That's it. I'll help you heal the injury on your head and take you to the river. Can you tell me something?"

The Kappa thought for a while and said, "Then what if I don't know what you want to ask?"

"It's okay, I'll take you back too."

Natsume Takashi tilted his head, showing a soft smile: "Are you okay?"

The simple Kappa was stunned by the little boy's smile, and nodded in a daze: "Okay, okay, what do you want to ask?"

When Yosano Akiko came over with the girls, Natsume Takashi asked, "Do you know anything special about you monsters nearby?"

Kappa: "What's the special thing?"

"That's right," Natsume Takashi searched for an adjective. It's not for nothing that he studied in Mihua Town for several months. "You monster's specialties, such as Mr. Bee's honey, are only available to you. What monsters can do."

"Here, let me think about it..."

The kappa fell into deep thought, with its head lowered, the bag on top of its head was more conspicuous.

When Natsume Takashi saw it, he stretched out his hand to cover that place, and used his demon power. After living among capable people for a few months, he also learned some simple ways to manipulate demon power, such as treating minor injuries like this. , it is easy to do.

There was a warm light in the boy's palm, and he was a little dazed from the cold outside. The kappa, whose head was still hurting, woke up a lot in an instant. It suddenly realized: "I remembered!"

The kappa raised his finger and pointed to the mountain peak not far away: "Before I floated along the river, under the cliff of that mountain, I saw a beautiful flower on the top of the mountain. Later, I went back and asked my elders, and they said that flower was a small flower snake. The ones planted are not only cold-resistant, but also very bright in color, and most importantly, because they are warmed by the magical power of the little flower snake, they can bloom for a whole winter even if they leave the land!"

"It's a pity that the little flower snake is an intermediate monster, otherwise I would like to ask it some points." Kappa scratched his head, "It's so beautiful!"

The girls and Takashi Natsume exchanged glances.

Then go and have a look!

Although Dazai Bandage probably doesn't care too much about flowers, isn't there a gift for someone else to prepare?And since there are monster powers to warm and nourish, it should not only be as simple as being able to bloom for a winter, not to mention that there should be no monsters so boring to spend monster power to grow flowers!

"Thank you, Kappa, we'll take you home right away."

Natsume Takashi and his friends first spent a little time finding a river that was not frozen, put the kappa in it, watched it sink to the bottom, and then set off to walk towards the mountain it pointed to.

The mountain was a bit high, and there was still snow on the top of the mountain. They bought boots for snow at the foot of the mountain and took the cable car up.

"I didn't expect that this mountain is still a privately operated scenic spot." Yosano Akiko said, "But it's much easier to handle this way, so that nothing happens when going up the mountain." It's much more convenient to take the cable car.

But where were they supposed to find the snake?

After getting off the cable car, there were still some tourists on the mountain. They turned around a few times and started to walk to a higher place.

"I can feel it a little bit," Natsume Takashi exhaled water mist, "There is a reaction of demon power on it."

The higher they went up, the stronger the wind above them, making them extremely cold. After walking for a long time, they finally vaguely saw colorful and beautiful flowers in the distance.

"It's so beautiful." Yosano Akiko looked at a small flower field emerging from the whiteness. The flowers were gently swaying in the cold wind, and there was no sign of being blown down. I wonder if it was her. She seemed to see the faint light of the blooming flowers, which was especially dazzling in the gray weather.

"Humans!" Just as they were about to go further, they heard a voice that sounded like a child, "Don't get close there! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

They turned their heads and found that a small white snake appeared next to it. When it noticed the sight of humans, it hissed twice and gradually grew in size.

At this moment, Natsume Takashi said, "Hello, are you the little flower snake that Kappa said?"

Little Flower Snake looked at the boy who was talking suspiciously, paused before preparing to attack, and looked Natsume Takashi up and down: "Reiko?"

Natsume Takashi: "?"
