[Noragami] I was not there

Not a word.

After Xue went back, she didn't say much, she just squatted quietly in the last row of the classroom all afternoon, and of course Kanaki didn't mention the matter of possession.

Yato and Hongyin were called away by a phone call in the afternoon. It seemed that someone's toilet was blocked and they were in urgent need of help.

In a blink of an eye, when it was time to leave school, Kanaki walked out of the teaching building with Xue, because she would say a few words from time to time, and once again kept the passing students a few meters away from her.

It seemed unusually lively today, Kanagi saw a lot of people surrounding the school gate from a distance, most of them were girls, but unfortunately the traffic was so tight that she couldn't see clearly what was going on outside.

"It's really handsome."

"It's like walking out of a magazine."

"Yes! I don't know if I can ask for a phone number!"

The closer she got, the more she could hear conversations like this. After Kamiki pushed through the crowd suspiciously and walked out of the school gate, she saw the center of the chaos—a tall, well-dressed man with brown hair in the middle of the school. Under the setting sun, it seemed to be plated with gold, and a pair of sunglasses was placed on his face, which was enough to cover half of his face, perhaps to reduce his sense of existence.

But in Kanagi's view, if he wants to achieve his goal, he should first drive back the cool sports car beside him, not to mention that a pair of sunglasses can't block anything at all, and the exposed lower half of his face makes people think about his the whole picture.

Ah, no wonder people are watching, maybe it's an artist.

Kanagi looked at it for a while with the attitude of not looking at it for nothing, maybe getting an autograph, but why did she feel more familiar with that person the more she looked at it?

That person is... Hiiragi?Wait, why did he come to her school?

"Oh, so that's the type you like." Yuki stood by the side with her hands in her pockets. Seeing Kanaki's dumbfounded look, she also raised her eyes to look at the man, but soon because of the girls around The pushing and shoving became a little irritated, "...can you go back quickly?"

On the contrary, the tall man didn't feel the slightest discomfort when he was surrounded by crowds. He could keep smiling even when facing some girls' mobile phone cameras, but he kept his eyes on the direction of the school gate, obviously waiting for someone.

Kanaki was still wondering about Hiiragi's appearance, and she didn't realize something was wrong until she met his gaze, because he suddenly walked towards her with a step on both legs.

……Eh?

"Miss Kanna." Hiiragi walked straight in front of her, raised her hand and pulled her out of the crowd, followed by gasps and screams one after another.

Kanagi was shocked. In fact, this kind of scene is very suitable for a girl's heart, but at this moment, all she thinks is that she is finished. The owner of the cowherd shop found out that she is a minor. This is to go to the police station to find a guardian for tea Rhythm.

There was no time to run away, Kanaki was taken by Hiiragi into the passenger seat of that fashionable sports car, Yuki didn't know what was going on in front of her, but seeing Kanaki's expression as if the sky was falling, she hurriedly followed the car .

It's over, it's over, it's over...

When the car drove away from the school, the pale Kanaki finally couldn't help but speak——

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hiiragi! I know I was wrong!" Kanaki repeatedly apologized to the man in the driver's seat. If her parents found out that she lied and went to the Cowherd's shop, she would not dare to imagine the consequences, "Please forgive me this time Bar!"

Hiiragi chuckled lightly, turned the steering wheel and said, "What are you talking about, Ms. Kanna, you are simply here to pick up a friend."

Kannaki was stunned for a moment, and she was relieved in the next second. She could understand what she said. Hiiragi didn't come to trouble her after knowing it. As long as it wasn't like that, everything would be fine.

"Then why did you come to me for...?"

"Actually, I just want Ms. Kanna to do me a favor." Hiiragi said the purpose of this trip, paused and continued, "So that little brother in the back, you don't have to look at me like that anymore, I don't no offence."

Xue, who had been waiting for the man to stop and knock him unconscious with a punch, was stunned, pointing at herself and asking, "Can you see me?"

"Reluctantly, because of Yato God, we can all see those... well, are they called dead ends?" Hiiragi was a little confused, but quickly smiled, "Anyway, I can see you."

"..."

Kanaki also turned to Yuki and explained: "It's okay, Ayuki, Mr. Hiiragi is actually a guest of Yato."

"...Okay." Xue sat back in the back seat inexplicably and uncomfortably.

Hiiragi continued: "Recently Qihai's situation is very bad, and you know that the day after tomorrow is the day when the time thief will appear, so she has become more and more anxious these two days, and even I don't want to see her, although Ye Fighting God has Trying to comfort him, but he is not a human being after all, and he is a very nervous guy, that's why I came to you, I hope you can stay by Qihai's side for me until the matter is over."

"……that's it?"

"Yes, that's it."

Kanaki was completely relaxed, it turned out that it was such a trivial matter, of course she agreed faster than anyone else.

Xue in the back row leaned out from the middle, and he heard another strange address: "What is the time thief?"

So, in the next ten minutes, Kanaki roughly told Yuki about Hiiragi and Honma Nanami, and then Yuki returned her with a simple "oh" to express that she understood.

Using one's own time to gamble, no matter what it is for and how great the odds are, in Xue's view, this is a stupid thing. If it were him, he would never help that kind of woman who can't die if she doesn't act .

"Mr. Hiiragi, I'll call home first and tell my parents to come home later." Kanaki took out his phone from his pocket.

"That's what it should be...Oh, by the way, Miss Kanna."

"...?" Kanagi looked up at him suspiciously.

"This is not Roppongi. You don't need to call me Hiiragi in private. That's just the name I used when I was a host. My real name is Jun Kuribayashi. Miss Kanna can call me Kuribayashi or Jun."

"Okay, Mr. Kuribayashi." Kanaki involuntarily added Mr. to the end of the address, and then said something more as if he had gained knowledge, "It turns out that being a host still has an alias."

"Yeah, speaking of it..."

The man stepped on the brakes, stopped firmly at the red light, and then turned his head to Kanaki who was in the passenger seat and smiled inexplicably——

"I have many names."

"……Oh."

Kannahi nodded, and didn't think too much about it, but simply felt that being a host was really not easy, and she wasn't afraid to faint herself after having too many names.

<<

Taking Kuribayashi Jun's car, it didn't take long for them to reach a high-end residential area in the city.

Kannaki looked up at the single-family mansion in front of him, and felt that it was necessary for him to record what Jun Kuribayashi said just now that they were friends, and that he had met a local tyrant in this life.

But after entering the door, Kanaxi found that the decoration inside was not much different from what she thought, but she always felt that it was a bit inconsistent, but she couldn't tell it all at once.

Kuribayashi Jun brought Kanaki to the door of a room on the second floor: "Qami is inside, please."

"Ah."

In order not to irritate Nanami Honma, only Kanaki entered the room, and Jun Kuribayashi waited in the living room with Yuki.

Kanagi saw Nanami Honma again, she was standing in front of the full-length mirror with her back to the door, she turned her head only when she heard her shout.

Kanaki looked at the woman in front of her and was startled. She could hardly recognize Nanami Honma anymore. It wasn't because of the change in her appearance, but because of her current attire.

Although she is still in her 70s or [-]s, Honma Nanami is no longer dressed as a cleaner, but is wearing a particularly bright off-the-shoulder dress, high heels on her feet, and heavy makeup on her face.

If she was a young girl, this outfit would be impeccable, but it can be called terrible on Honma Nanami today.

"Ah, Miss Kanna is here. I heard Hiiragi say you're coming."

Honma Nanami smiled lightly at Kanaki. Speaking of the smile alone, it should be the standard style of a young lady, but with that makeup, it is almost impossible to look directly at it.

Honma Nanami said as she walked slowly towards Kanaki, and Kanaki also saw the whole picture of the full-length mirror that was blocked by Honma Nanami's body just now - there was only a gorgeous frame, and the mirror on it was missing, through which only Can see the wall behind.

Kanaki finally knew what the sense of discord in this house was—there were no reflective objects here.

Kannaki swallowed her saliva, and felt goosebumps all over her body: it's not good... this woman is already crazy.

……

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Yuki looked at this overly luxurious house and had the same reaction as Kanaki.

Li Linjun went straight to the kitchen, glanced sideways at the boy, and reached out to open the refrigerator in front of him, which contained various fruit drinks.

He casually took out some of the bottles to look at the labels on the bottles, and said to Xue, "What do you want to drink? Coke or orange juice?"

"..."

He took the drink and walked back to the living room, and after seeing the boy's extremely ugly face, he showed a sorry expression: "Ah, I'm so sorry, I forgot you..."

Xue turned away angrily and stopped talking.

Seeing his reaction, the most natural smile appeared on Li Linjun's face again, maybe it was just a habit of many years, he sat on the sofa beside the snow: "Speaking of which, when did Yuki-kun follow Miss Kanna? Never seen it before."

"Why should I tell you?" Xue said coldly without even turning her head.

Kuribayashi Jun didn't care about Yuki's bad attitude, and continued to say: "Ah, I remember that Mr. Hongyin next to Yatoshen is... a magic weapon, right? He really likes the two bottles of Lafite at my house. The magic weapon is really amazing, They are obviously undead, but they are almost like living people, able to eat and drink."

"..." Xue frowned in annoyance. The man in front of him was completely different from what he had imagined. Looking at his appearance, he thought he was taking the high-cold route, but he didn't expect his words to be much more unexpected.

"That's why I've been thinking, if an undead like Mr. Hongyin gambles with the time thief and wins time, will he be able to be resurrected? After all, the time thief has used his own ability to live and die many times. .”

"Resurrection?!" Xue stood up involuntarily, and said excitedly, "Are you serious?!"

"Ah, it was Qihai who told me. I heard that a rich man who lost his time sent someone to successfully assassinate the time thief. After three weeks, he reappeared in the restaurant. The guy who can manipulate the biological time probably also It's equivalent to controlling life." Li Linrun kept smiling, and paused when he said this, and the smile deepened at the corner of the boy's mouth who became silent, "Of course, these are just what I said casually. Said, Mr. Xue don't need to take it to heart."

"..."

...artifact...time thief...resurrected?

Xue sat back on the sofa in a daze, and he looked at the coffee table silently, and didn't make a sound for a long, long time, only his fists were unconsciously clenched tighter and tighter.

Li Linjun smiled and got up, he should go to the wine cabinet to pour himself a glass of red wine, and then just sit on the sofa and wait quietly.

Because he could see that the young man in front of him had already moved his mind, and that was enough.

<<

Kanagi felt that she was going to die, why on earth did she have to talk about her love history with a gorgeous mother-in-law... Where did she get her love history from? ...that's insane.

"Yes, then I rejected A, saved B, and accepted C, but I still couldn't forget D in my heart. Later, I got engaged to E again under the arrangement of my family."

"Miss Kanna really still loves D."

"Ha ha."

Kanaki wiped off her sweat, and couldn't help but praise her ability to chat. Anyway, Nanami Honma seems to be able to digest everything, and she can continue to chat along with her.

Taking advantage of Honma Nanami's summary statement for Kanaki's love affair, Kanaki hurriedly fanned herself, and pretended that she was looking at the scenery, but it turned out that it was okay not to look at it, and she was shocked when she saw it.

Just to her right, where the floor-to-ceiling windows used to be, there was a guy in a tracksuit hanging upside down like a bat, clinging to the wall, his ears kept poking out.

The next thing Kana Xixin wanted to do was pick up the pillow on the chair and throw it over, successfully knocking him down from mid-air, and when he climbed up from the ground floor, he pretended not to have done anything and grinned at her ——

"Axi, you noticed me when I first came here, good eyesight! I even brought you an iced drink, it's a gift from a guest!"

Shen Naxi took the drink: "...you are all covered with heat."

"...Is it? I must be too enthusiastic! Hahahahahahahahaha...hahahaha...haha...ha...well, I've been here for a long time."

Kannaki sighed, and stretched out his hand to pull Yato up: "For the sake of the drink, forget it."

"I knew that Axi's heart is not that small!" Yato opened his hands and gave Kanaki a bear hug, rubbing his cheeks and said, "So you will definitely tell me who ABCDE is!"

"... Get lost." ==

Homma Qihai put down her teacup and smiled softly: "You two have such a good relationship."

Hongyin squatted on the balcony railing with fishy eyes: "Why doesn't anyone see me?"

……

Anyway, Kanaki finally appeased Nanami Honma and let her wait as relaxed as possible for their... confrontation with the Time Thief two days later?

Well, Yato and Hirono haven't told Kanaki what their mysterious weapon is yet, but she will know that day.

It was getting late, and Yato and Hirono sent Kanaki and Yuki home. Along the way, Yato pestered Kanaki to ask ABCDE's birth date. There are none, and Yato actually thinks that nonsense must have prototypes, so what are their surnames?

Hongyin walked behind, he was really afraid that he would be hurt if he walked too fast, and on the other side was Xue who also walked at a slower pace, but he didn't speak a word after coming out of Nanami Honma.

"Axue, what's wrong with you?" Hong Yin asked worriedly.

Snow stopped in her tracks, and suddenly raised her head, which had been slightly lowered, and shouted loudly to the people in front: "...Yato!"

When Yeto heard his name, he also stopped to look back at the boy, handed the can of beer to his mouth, and took a sip: "What?"

Yuki looked directly at Yato, her fists loosened and clenched, but her eyes seemed firmer than ever before: "Yato... God, let me be your magic weapon!"

"puff--"

Yato spit out a mouthful of beer, coughed while rubbing his chest, managed to slow down and straighten up, looking at Snow again was like looking at an alien——

"what did you just say?"
