[Comprehensive] Notes on Cat Raising by Benmaru

Candlestick Kiri was the first to discover Chihiro. When he passed by Yakiri Hasebe's room, he saw a shirt outside the house and a white cat lying on the shirt that looked like it was sleeping. From Tsurumaru The little fox who ran out to go back to the room, and the big tiger who sneaked out to find his master.

Forget about foxes and cats...it would be terrible if a tiger was discovered...

Candlestick couldn't help showing a wry smile. He clamped the fox first, and then picked up Qianxun by the neck. The dazed white cat tilted its head and stuck its furry head on his hand .

The lying tiger looked up at the candlestick and took a look. After meeting the other party's eyes, he reluctantly got up from the ground, looked back at the white cat that was being carried, and flicked his tail reluctantly. gone.

Chihiro actually woke up when Candlestick Kirito walked over. Although she seemed to be asleep, she was still paying attention to the movement in the room, planning to run away immediately when she heard the footsteps of Yakiri Hasebe.

Unexpectedly, the little fox who wanted to sleep with her came along halfway.

Doesn't that mean you don't have to run away at all!Thinking like this, Chihiro simply let go of herself and lay motionless on Hasebe's shirt.

She waved her paw, signaling Candlestick Che that she would rather be held than being carried.Candlestick cut a long sigh, and simply hugged the two furries together in his arms. He was still holding the pressed cut Hasebe shirt in his hand, and the overall posture looked very difficult.

He knocked hard on the door, and after a short wait, he saw Hasebe's surprised face. He looked down at the shirt in his hand, showing a slightly shaken expression for some reason.

Feeling that the other party seemed to have thought of something strange, Candlesticks handed over the shirt in his hand, "I found this at the door of your room, Hasebe, why did you put the clothes at the door."

Hasebe, who had made up some bloody romance dramas in his brain, was relieved, and secretly vowed to destroy those strange DVDs of Fudo when he went back. He reached out to take the shirt, but did not He didn't tell Candlestick Che about the stranger's visit in the middle of the night.

Candlestick Che didn't ask any further questions, his eyes were all focused on the yellow and white hairs stained on his shirt.

"You two... don't go to sleep on other people's clothes, it's all covered with hair..."

"Meow~" Chihiro immediately protested against Candlestick Kiri's words, showing with her eyes that she didn't shed hair at all, but the next second, she felt Candlestick Kiri curled her fingers and combed her body a few times , and then stretched out the hand that was covered with her hair and put it in front of her eyes.

Chihiro was silent for a moment, and then, she stared at Candlestick Kiri's hand with an expression of disbelief, seemingly completely unable to understand the matter of her shedding hair.

The atmosphere became heavy in an instant, Kaki Hasebe looked at his messed up shirt, silently hung it on his arm, and planned to wash it later.

He looked behind Candlestick Cut, and decisively changed the subject, "Why is it so noisy outside?"

"It seems to have caught a mischievous fox..." Mentioning this, Candlestick Kiri was also a little puzzled, so he went to meet Tsurumaru and his party with Kokiri Hasebe.

Tsurumaru was teasing the white fox with the fried tofu that he got somewhere. This white fox was originally a servant of God Inari, but he didn't develop any divinity at all, and instead became more and more mischievous.

The reason why I chose this hotel at the beginning was because the family bumped into Inari God during a visit to a shrine, so Inari God punished him, which is why there are always children's voices coming from the hotel.

However, the little fox, who got some kind of fun in the pranks, always sneaked out of the shrine to play pranks, and this time it happened to be met by the Fusangshen.

"In that case, the little fox who brought Little Fox Maruden to find someone is probably Inari God's other servant..."

Discovering the evil deeds of the white fox, he went to stop it, but was caught by the demon catcher instead.

"What..." He muttered, raised his hand and rubbed his shoulder, looking very dissatisfied, "Did we run away all night because of this guy's prank?"

Even so, the other party is the servant of God Inari after all, so he still wants to return it to the shrine.Fortunately, the exorcising master agreed to let him deliver it, which saved the tragedy of Fusangshen climbing the mountain late at night.

"In short, this matter is resolved!" Tsurumaru clapped his hands in relief, as if he completely forgot that the whole process of the test of courage was prepared by him.

However, the others did not forget, so as soon as he turned his head, he met a smiling face.

The first phase of "Tsuramaru Temple" smiled and pulled out his sword, "Thank you for taking care of my brother. In return, please let me join hands with you."

"No, no, no... I don't think this looks like thank you at all..." He only finished speaking halfway before being forcibly taken away by Yiqi Yizheng by his collar.However, Tsurumaru Kuninaga, who has changed from a white crane to a gray crane, has to face the punishment of going back to work for a month.

Chihiro didn't have time to gloat this time, because she was also on the punishment list for the meeting.After returning from the hot spring hotel to the house where she lived before, she was banned from all snacks and meals, and could only eat cat food every day.

Facing the cat food, Chihiro raised her head blankly, staring at the candlestick Kiri Mitsutada who couldn't bear to look at her.

Candlestick coughed a few times, then turned his back, looked at the people around the dining table who were silently bowing their heads to eat, and said with difficulty, "That's it... Because Xiaoqian, you are always running around, so..."

Chihiro felt desperate, but what made her even more desperate was that the yard was strictly guarded, completely cutting off the possibility of her secretly escaping.

Candlestick looked at Chihiro who was crawling sleepily on the stone steps in the courtyard, and couldn't help but asked the calm Mikayue with some worry, "Is this really all right? Xiaoqian hasn't eaten for several days..."

"After all, it's punishment," San Riyue said, staring at the front with unclear meaning, and said calmly.

For this punishment, Candlestick Che also confiscated most of the snacks hidden by Fusangshen who seemed to be unable to resist feeding Chihiro.

He hesitated for a long time, but finally shook his head and turned to enter the house.Sanriyue didn't move, he poured himself a cup of tea calmly, then walked to the center of the courtyard with the tray, and sat in front of the low table.

Chihiro looked up at him, then pricked up his ears very vigilantly, carefully observed the surroundings, after confirming that there was no one around, trotted to San Riyue, and then jumped onto the opponent's knee.

San Riyue unhurriedly picked up the tea on the plate and fed it to Chihiro.

Fu Sangshen, who proposed punishment measures, was secretly feeding the cat at this moment!If Candlestick Chee sees it, he will definitely hold his hand and have a good heart-to-heart exchange.

It's a pity that this kind of secret feeding was not discovered until the day when the punishment was lifted. The white cat with explosive acting skills pretended to be hungry every day and condemned the gods with eyes, and when the punishment was lifted I ate a lot that day, and successfully aroused the pity of the Fusang Gods, so the ban was lifted altogether.

It just so happened that the day after the foot ban was lifted was a rare summer festival.

When the sun sets, the connected lights light up one by one, finally illuminating the mountains and forests.

Hotaru walked in the front with apple candy in his hand, he looked at the surrounding scene full of novelty, and suddenly thought of Aizen Kunijun.

Always liked the short sword of the festival, but not here at this time.

He lowered his head in frustration, and then saw the white cat walking at his feet looking up at him, her blue eyes seemed to be filled with the clearest sea water in the world, shining under the gentle warm light Brighten.

Hotaru felt that he calmed down suddenly, he knelt down and touched Chihiro's head, then pointed to the booth on the other side, and said in a soft voice, "Is there anything Xiaoqian likes? I can help you Bring it back!"

Chihiro looked in the direction of his finger. It was a shooting booth. The dolphins placed in the top row looked very cute. She pounced on Hotaru lightly, indicating that she really had what she wanted. thing.Then she saw the reliable Odachi clenched his fists with both hands, and said "OK" with a serious face to cheer herself up.

She followed Hotaru, looking up at Hotaru who picked up the gun, watched him aim carefully for a long time, and then hit the shelf accurately.

"Wow - it's so difficult -" he muttered in a low voice, but he didn't want to give up so easily, so he regained his strength again - hit the same position...

"How is it possible..." Hotaru widened his eyes slightly, showing an unbelievable expression, he looked down at his gun, there were still three bullets in it.

Is there a last chance?He thought, his expression became tense.

Chihiro didn't really want that dolphin puppet very much, but seeing Hotaru so nervous, she couldn't help becoming nervous.

Hotaru felt his hands sweat a little, he pulled the trigger cautiously, and with a bang, the bullet was shot to the ground.

"It's a pity——" the shopkeeper took the gun from Hotaru with a smile, and with a loving expression, it was clear that he was a real child.

Hotaru felt a little sorry, he knelt down and grabbed Chihiro's paw and shook it, looking a little frustrated, "Sorry, Chihiro."

Chihiro was about to comfort him, but found that the light in front of her eyes was suddenly blocked. She was holding a big paper bag in her hand, grilled squid skewers in her right hand, and Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki with a mask on her head looked at Hotaru in surprise. pill.

"What's the matter?" He tilted his head and stared at Yingwan, and glanced at the booth in front of him from the corner of his eye.

"Could it be that you want to play this?" Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki laughed, "We thought it was something, so let us rest assured!"

He put the things in his hand aside, took the gun from the shopkeeper, and said "bang——" in his mouth.

Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki is indeed Fusangshin who understands and uses new things the fastest. Although the first bullet was a bit off because of the first use, it still managed to shoot down the tumbler on the shelf.

Seeing hope, Chihiro immediately rushed to grab his bathrobe, meowed, and tried her best to signal that she wanted him to cum on the top puppet.

Mutsu Mori, who probably understood Chihiro's meaning, didn't find it strange. He just smiled heartily and said, "Ah, that?" He shot it accurately—the Japanese doll next to the puppet—

No way... Chihiro rested her forehead on Fu Sangshen's lap.

That's super scary to watch at night...

Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki blinked his eyes, feeling that he might have made a mistake, he freed up a hand and touched Chihiro's head, regained his momentum, and made full use of the last bullet.

Of course, the bullet didn't go empty. Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki bent down with a smile, and stretched out his hand towards Chihiro. Chihiro glanced in the direction of the shelf with complicated emotions. The little blue dolphin seemed to be opening his eyes. He watched her quietly with round eyes.

But she still silently raised her paw, and lightly patted the opponent's outstretched palm.

After completing the high-five, Yidao Yimao walked forward swaggeringly with the tumbler, doll, rabbit wood carving and Hotaru Wan.

After walking a few steps, I saw Catfish Tail, Luan and Wuhutui in front of the goldfish fishing booth.Cattail didn't know how many paper nets it had broken, and even its sleeves were wet.

Chihiro tilted her head and watched for a while, but couldn't hold back for a moment, jumped up and stretched out her claws, and easily caught a goldfish.Then she was picked up by the shopkeeper and placed far away from the booth.

Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki who was following her didn't care about her at all, bent over and kept laughing, Chihiro gave him a cold look, and then wiped all the water from his paws on his bathrobe.

Yingwan, who was catching up from behind, finally finished eating the apple candy. He looked forward and found Gexian standing not far away with a gloomy expression.

Gexian Jianxiang is not very willing to eat in public, but where he is standing now, there are restaurants all around him, and there are two other people who ignore his elegant pursuit and stand by the stall eating non-stop. people.

Horikawa, as Honmaru's rare conscience, has been standing by Izumi Mori and Nagasoya who are eating and eating. After seeing Utama's expression getting more and more strange, he smiled apologetically, but Izumi Mori Kanesada didn't notice what was behind him at all. With a gloomy gaze, after he turned around, he saw the white cat tilting its head to look at him at a glance, so he waved to Qianxun very brightly, "Yo! Xiaoqian! Do you want to eat something?"

Qian Xun gave Ge Xian a sympathetic look, then ran over happily.

During the summer festival, there will be dance games at a fixed time, and it is a very lively event that anyone who is a little bit interested can freely participate in.

But this means that the mighty parade passing by can easily cause confusion.

Generally speaking, when the parade passes by, everyone will stand together hand in hand to prevent being scattered, but Chihiro's side is Izumi Mori Kanesada who doesn't know much about these things. He didn't pay attention for a while, people and cats It was all washed away.

Chihiro followed the parade and walked a few steps forward. When she finally got out, she felt a little dizzy. She looked around and saw a very familiar chubby cat drooling at the food.

Anyway, he got separated, so Chihiro simply ran over and patted the other party's paw lightly. Who knew that the other party's reaction was so great when he saw her. He opened his eyes slightly and let out a strange meowing sound.

He took a few steps back, then narrowed his eyes.

Chihiro was puzzled by his reaction, she silently took a step forward.Thus, between the two cats, an inexplicably serious atmosphere like the confrontation between the two armies appeared.

There were two cats like this in front of the stall. The stall owner felt that his mood was very complicated. After thinking for a while, he took out the grilled skewers and shook them between the two cats. When the two cats raised their heads at the same time, When looking at him, he threw the skewers away.

After the crisp sound of the bamboo sticks covered by the music, the two cats showed disgusted eyes at the same time.

It actually fell to the ground... The two of them thought at the same time, then looked at each other, and after their eyes met, they hummed in their hearts and turned their heads away.

Probably because he didn't want to get too entangled with Chihiro, Mr. Cat turned his head and walked down the stone steps.In order to get back to Fu Sangshen's side, Chihiro had to follow behind the other party, and by the way, she saw the appearance of the short-legged cat when she descended the steps.

After walking for a while, Mr. Cat realized that he hadn’t left Chihiro behind. He turned around aggressively, relying on the woods around him so he wouldn’t be found, he said aggressively, “Why do you always follow me!”

Chihiro was taken aback, she took a step back and opened her eyes wide, and said in a hesitant tone, "The cat... spoke?"

Teacher Cat was stunned for a moment, then jumped up suddenly, "You you you! What are you and why do you talk?!"

The two fake cats simultaneously exclaimed in horror at the fact that the other could talk.Teacher Cat stared at Chihiro for a while, and felt that the other party was not a monster. "What are you?" He asked.

Chihiro blinked her eyes. She has calmed down now, so instead of answering Teacher Cat's question, she calmly asked, "Shouldn't I ask this question? Are you not a cat?"

"Of course I'm not a cat." Teacher Cat snorted coldly, then raised his head very proudly, "I'm a famous big monster."

"Oh..." Chihiro nodded indifferently, then turned and left without looking back.

"What kind of attitude do you have!" The furry cat teacher was hugged by Natsume who found him the next second, complaining "Teacher, you're running around again" while walking towards Nishimura who was still waiting for him .

This short encounter is probably the last. After the summer festival, Chihiro should return to Honmaru. She sighed secretly in her heart, and walked down the stone steps, looking for the scattered Fusangshen .

She didn't find Izumi Mori Kanesada, but ran into Tsurumaru Kuninaga sitting on the fence. He was holding a fox mask in his hand, his golden eyes were staring into the distance, and he noticed something stopped at his feet. He lowered his head slightly, with a smile in his golden eyes.

"Yo! Xiaoqian, where's Hotaru?" Chihiro followed Hotaru at the beginning, but now she appeared here alone, Tsurumaru probably guessed that she should be scattered by the crowd.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to Chihiro, watching the other party quickly jump into his arms, he pointed to the other side of the fence, on the wide curved water, there were brightly colored river lights , the orange light flowing down the water, like a fishing fire in a quiet night, suppressed the shining stars in the sky.

It turns out that there will be river lanterns... Chihiro thought, the warm light melted her eyes, softening the original rich dark color in the pupils, she gently grabbed Tsurumaru's sleeve with her paw , raised his head and meowed at him.

Tsurumaru blinked slyly, then jumped down from the fence, kicked on the tree with his toes, the white bathrobe was as light as the feathers of a white crane, he fell to the ground, and after turning his eyes around, finally It was fixed on the river lamp not far away.

"Let's put one in too, Xiaoqian," he said, buying a river lantern happily.

Chihiro couldn't help with things like putting on the river lantern, so she lay down on the bank and watched Tsurumaru work alone for most of the day, and then put the river lantern into the water.

"Speaking of which, this is for praying..." Tsurumaru muttered in a low voice, he squatted down, and reached out to touch Chihiro's soft down, "But unexpectedly, I don't have any wishes."

No, no, you can make a wish to fill your life with horror, or to escape the next month after returning to Honmaru.

Chihiro patted off his outstretched hand and walked to the edge of the river bank by herself, her ears perked up slightly, and the bell on her chest glowed dimly.

Speaking of which... I don't seem to have any wishes, she stretched out her claws to smooth her hair messed up by Tsurumaru.She didn't believe in making wishes at all, but now that the river lanterns have been set off, she always feels a little regretful not to say something in her heart.

Her tail curled up slightly, and the little fire in her eyes did not go out for a long time.

In this case, then make a wish that I find the Zanpakuto sooner, when the time comes...

You have to apologize.
