[Noragami] I was not there

Bright red... blood.

Kanaki's footsteps stopped, she covered her mouth in disbelief, and opened her eyes wide. The sudden car accident also knocked her sanity away.

She didn't remember how she came to touch the young man, she was at a loss, she could only take off her sweater to cover the bleeding on his neck, she was obviously joking with herself a few minutes ago, how could it become like this now.

"Yes, I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." Xue fell to the ground and stepped back, the blood red in front of him stabbed his eyes.

At this moment, Kanaki couldn't care about Xue at all, her mind went blank, and she hurriedly took out her mobile phone to call an ambulance, but her palms were covered with blood, and she realized that she couldn't even press the keys well with trembling hands.

Everything in front of her eyes overlapped with the blood in her memory again, the sadness and powerlessness welled up from the depths of her heart, until her trembling hand was held by someone, she heard him whispering in her ear——

"It's okay, leave it to me."

"Did Hongyin call for an ambulance?!"

"All right." Hongyin, who had also arrived, put down his phone, "I'll be there in 10 minutes."

"it is good."

Yato nodded, took the sweater that Kanaki used to block Dong Zeliao's bleeding hole, turned him slightly to the side to prevent suffocation caused by the backflow of blood from his mouth and nose, and borrowed it from Xiaofu Tighten his tie close to the heart to prevent excessive blood loss.After confirming that Dong Zeliao was still conscious, he shouted in his ear——

"Hey! Can you still hear me?!"

Dong Zeliao frowned slightly: "It's so noisy."

"Ah, I think it's right to be noisy." Yato grabbed his hand and handed it to Kanaki, then turned to her and said, "Hold it, and keep talking to him."

Kanaki immediately held her hand, but the temperature in his palm had gradually subsided, she tightened her hand even tighter, she leaned close to his ear and said repeatedly: "Mr. Thief, hold on a little longer, the ambulance will come soon! Hold on!"

"It's useless when the ambulance comes." Dong Zeliao coughed up another mouthful of blood, and even at this moment he still smiled at Kanaki, "Today is too much... Time just ran out, I can't save back."

What Dong Zeliao could see was that the number on his head only had a few minutes left, and if he waited a little longer, it would return to zero, and his long life would also come to an end.

"No..." Kanaxi suddenly remembered something, quickly grabbed Dong Zeliao's hand and put it on his neck, and said anxiously, "I still have your 120 years here! Take it back! Take it back There is time again!"

Dong Zeliao knew that this might be the only way to save himself, but when he raised his head and reconfirmed the remaining time of Kanagi, he shook his head. He actually discovered it early in the morning, and he didn't even—

"Can't take your time."

"Eh?" Kanaki was stunned, the time thief actually said that he couldn't take away his time.

Well, Dong Zeliao really can’t take Kanaki’s time away. It’s completely different from ordinary people. Kanaki’s time is simply a string of garbled characters. It can only be added up, but it is difficult to subtract. Even he doesn’t know why it is like this .

But this also means that Dongzeliao has lost his last chance to survive.

Dong Zeliao turned his head slightly. He looked at the girl next to him who was about to cry, and suddenly felt that this life was enough. Think about how long he has lived? ... It's been so long that he can't remember clearly, and he's a little tired.

Dong Zeliao raised his hand to caress her cheek, and wiped away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes with his fingers: "It's just a pity, I just met Axi."

"...Mr. Thief." Kanaki choked in her throat, but she didn't know what else to say.

"Hey... In the next life, I will definitely meet you before this cheap god."

Those were the last words the boy said. His hand fell after losing strength, and there was still a smile on his face that was so bright that it made people feel sad. Every time they looked at Kanaki, the pair would become sparkling. Liang's eyes never opened again...

- The Time Thief is dead.

Yato let go of the sweater covering the bleeding hole, because it was unnecessary.

He lowered his head slightly, closing his blue eyes——

God is not omnipotent, he can do too little...

<<

died.

The woman who had never left the driver's seat finally showed a smile. She finally dared to open the car door, staggered down, and walked towards them slowly.

She saw the already icy body of that damned thief—killed by her own hands.

Even if she exhausted all her efforts to find the gods and win, he still couldn't get back her time, and said that she should be responsible for her actions... What are you kidding, she is obviously a thief and a trash, but she still said that She is wrong.

Since there is no way to regain youth, she will definitely not let him have a good time, she must die earlier than her... Uglier...

Standing behind them, she looked at the boy's body with the coldest and most merciless eyes, and commented extremely disdainfully——

"Deserving it."

"..."

Kanagi knew who was behind her, and she had discovered it earlier. The vehicle that caused the accident was very familiar. It was the cool sports car that Jun Kuribayashi drove when he came to pick her up from school.

It was not an accident at all, it was a purposeful murder from the beginning.

"Miss Honma..." Kanaki put down the boy's already cold hands, she got up and stood up, her slightly lowered head made her bangs cover half of her face, casting a large shadow, "Why did you do such a thing?"

Honma Qihai tilted her head, pulled up her wrinkled face and smiled ferociously: "Do I still need to ask?"

"Mr. Thief clearly...obviously already agreed, as long as you go to him again, you will win back your time in a completely dignified way."

"What are you kidding!" After hearing this sentence, Honma Nanami clenched her fist and retorted loudly, "How do I know if I will lose again?! How much time do I have left to bet with him again! His words I don't believe a word! All I know is that my time will never come back!"

"..." Kanaki couldn't think of anything else to say to this completely crazy woman. In her eyes, Nanami Honma was both hateful and pathetic. It was she who smashed her last hope with her own hands.

"Ah...Speaking of which, I really want to thank you, little sister." Honma Nanami suddenly remembered something, turned her head and smiled at Xue who hadn't recovered from the accident in front of her, "Originally, I was totally I'm not sure that I can kill him, but thanks to you being so in the way, he's so stupid that he doesn't even care about his own life."

Xue, who was already emotionally unstable, was stimulated by Homma Nanami's words, and his constricted pupils kept flickering.

Xue looked at the body of the boy lying on the ground, and it was because she was too frightened to move after seeing the car that he pushed him away regardless of her dodge, the woman in front of her was right——

"It was my fault."

"Yes, you are also a murderer." Honma Nanami smiled, and the young girl's fear and remorse gave her an unprecedented sense of pleasure.

"The murderer... did I kill someone?" Xue's tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and she looked at her hands in disbelief.

He just wanted to live, but he never thought of really hurting anyone, but facing Nanami's words, he had nothing to refute... If it wasn't for him, the time thief would not die at all.

Xue cried, and his crying sounded especially terribly amidst Honma Nanami's louder laughter.

But Honma Nanami's laughter didn't last long, she only felt a blow in the back of the head, rolled her eyes and fainted to the ground.

Dahei withdrew his hand behind her, his face was half dark, he took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, and looked at the woman on the ground with disdain: "Tch, this is the first time I see an old woman so obtrusive."

But what Honma Nanami said has indeed played a role.

Xue covered her head and shook it non-stop. He may have regrets, but at this point, he no longer knows how to turn back.

Because the time thief is dead, everything he has done has lost its meaning, and his wish will never be fulfilled.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." All the words I wanted to say turned into these three words, and there were only these three words.

He saw Kanaki walking up to him, grabbing his hand and telling himself to calm down——

"Axue, it's not your fault!"

——No, it was obviously my fault.

【She's right, it's not your fault. 】

——if it wasn't for me...

【The man who killed him was the old woman over there. 】

——Is it really not my fault?

【Hmm, you just want to realize your wish. 】

——But the time thief is dead, and it is impossible for me to be resurrected.

[As long as we are together, there must be a way. 】

--you?

【Yes, aren't we always by your side? 】

—Ah... that would be wonderful.

……

"Oops!"

Yato was stunned, and immediately stretched out his hand to pull Kanagi, who was still persuading Yuki, into his arms and jumped a few meters away. The second they left, there was the sound of the ground breaking behind them. The most terrifying thing was the moment after that. Something frightening bursting out of the ground.

Kanagi turned around, and at the place where he was standing, a big mouth had been opened at this moment, a strong force like a hurricane spewed out along with countless monsters of different shapes, constantly turning on the surface of his body Eyeballs, roars from hell.

"...What...these?"

The number of monsters that have never been seen before is completely different from what I have seen before, and the time changes that spread all over this land in an instant come extremely fast.

Yato took a step back with Kanaki in his arms. He looked at Yuki who bowed his head and remained silent beside the acupuncture point, with a seriousness on his face that he had never seen before——

"The wind acupoint is opened...why is this time..."
