[Noragami] I was not there

Yato, with his head covered in bandages, is staring dryly at his mobile phone. The mobile phone has been connected to the charger to keep it constantly charged. His dry eyes are already bloodshot, and there is a faint sound of anxious tongue smacking coming from his mouth.

After a long time of freezing, he finally couldn't help scratching his hair and jumped up violently.

"It's been 23 minutes and 48 seconds, why hasn't Ah Xi come to me?!... 49 seconds, 50 seconds, 51 seconds..." Yato fell down again after counting, rolling around on the collapsed ground Go, but when the last number on the screen returned to zero again, he jumped up again, "Sixteen hours and 24 minutes! Something must have happened to Ah Xi!"

Yato stretched out his hand to grab the pants on the side and put them on his legs, before jumping around to go out.

"You're enough!" Xueyin, who was gesticulating, couldn't bear it and threw a pillow at someone who had just slipped into a trouser leg. What time! Ah Xi still has class!"

"Is class more important than me?! Why doesn't Axi answer my phone or even reply to my email?!" Yato pulled the quilt and twisted angrily, looking at Xueyin with teary eyes, " I know, she must have been abducted by some senior senior, a senior from the club, or a teacher from the health room."

A vein popped out of Xueyin's forehead, and she clenched her fist tightly: "I believe she just thought you were too annoying, so she simply turned off the phone."

"Am I annoying?! Where am I annoying?!" Yato held up his mobile phone and argued loudly, "I just made 37 calls and sent 120 text messages!"

"If I were Axi, I would have already smashed the phone." Xueyin silently looked away and turned his back. He shouldn't have had too much hope for Yato's self-consciousness.

"Axi doesn't think I'm annoying! Oh, I get it, you must be envious." Yato smiled and swayed around in place, adding Kanaki's name in the address book. Love one after another.

"..." Xueyin choked up a bit, tilted her head and propped up her chin irritably, and muttered, "What, this nasty sour smell."

...It seems that there is really a strange smell.

Xueyin wrinkled her nose, and just as she turned her head, she was taken aback by Yato's approaching enlarged face: "Wow, what are you doing?!"

Yeto grinned, hooked Xueyin's head with one arm and pulled it hard, and punched the top of his hair with the other hand and turned around: "Don't worry, Xueyin, you are my most important artifact. Your love will never diminish!"

I don't know if it's because of being pinched, or because she heard Yeto's words, Xue Yin's face gradually turned slightly red, but she was still yelling stubbornly: "Armpit sweat! Armpit sweat smells so bad!" Dead! Let me go!"

While the two of them were making a fuss, the mobile phone, which had been pinched by the owner for 24 hours and [-] minutes, causing sweaty hands, suddenly rang.

Both Yato and Xueyin were stunned at the same time, looking at the flashing "Axi" on the screen of the mobile phone that fell on the couch, and then burst into an astonishing cry——

"Ahhhhh! It's here!"

Yato successfully received the phone in a difficult posture while spinning on the ground, and when he put it to his ear, he was heart-piercing: "Axi! You finally think of me!"

"...Well, are you Mr. Idiot God?" After two seconds of silence, it was not Kanaki's voice that sounded.

Ye Dou was taken aback: "Who are you? Where's Axi?"

The people over there burst into tears: "Axi...Axi is gone!"

When Yato and Yukine rushed to Kanaki's house, Uno Sanqian was squatting at the door, wiping away tears, and quickly stood up when he saw someone coming——

"Mr. Stupid, I heard you said that you didn't call the police, but is it really okay? Axi, she..."

Before listening to Uno Sanqian's words, Yato opened the door and went straight into the room, and his expressionless face since receiving the call finally completely collapsed at this moment. The room was messy, with no obvious signs of invasion, but there were monsters The breath that has come and has not yet dissipated.

This breath he is all too familiar with.

"Yato, what's going on here?!" Yukine, who didn't understand the situation in front of her at all, had to turn her head to ask Yato anxiously, but the only answer was that person's soft call——

"... Snow device."

A knife froze in Yato's hand in an instant, he took three or two steps straight, stopped in front of the TV in the living room, drew out the knife, swung it down, and chopped it down without hesitation——

The TV instantly turned into two halves, and what fell out of the cut was a black figure in the shape of a human being. The mask on his face had already revealed his identity. Before he could resist, the long knife had already sliced ​​through the flesh and landed on his neck. , and then looked up to see the man's raised chin, his eyes full of hostility and murderous intent became even more terrifying when looking down——

"Where is Kanagi?"

It was indeed the long-lost look, the look that the god of misfortune, who had killed countless people and had blood on his hands, should have had.

He said the answer he got was more ridiculous than he thought.

He should have known earlier, his father never let go of his surveillance for a moment, he should have been prepared, when Nora first appeared beside Kanaki.

But why did the father take Axi to the underworld?

Although he wanted to ask clearly, but that face died so suddenly, in the end all he knew was the news of Huangquan.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Yato couldn't help but slapped the car window with one hand: "Damn it!"

"I told you to be careful, you guys, you will have to pay for damage to my car." Dahei, who was driving, glared at Yato from the rearview mirror dissatisfied.

"You don't want to be like this, Yatoto. No matter how worried you are now, it won't help." Xiaofu in the passenger seat poked his head from the front and comforted him kindly, "We will be in Huangquan Hirazaka soon."

"..." Yato didn't make a sound, only clenched fists and legs shaking from anxiety.

Yukine, who was sitting beside him, gave Yato a look, maybe even Yato himself didn't realize that he was actually subconsciously covering up that he was trembling, as if he was afraid of something.

Yes, Yato was afraid of something.

"Although I know you may not want to answer, I still can't help but want to ask, you call the guy who took Axi away 'Daddy'? Does the god have a father?" Xueyin didn't make a sound along the way, but seeing When he was about to reach his destination, he finally couldn't help asking.

Fuku and Daikoku in the front row also looked at Yato.

Yato was stunned, he lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before saying: "It's just a human being, I was born from human wishes thanks to him, and he always puts on the appearance of an old man. will reward me."

"Humanity?!"

"Well, a guy who reincarnated from various human beings and died again and again." Yato frowned, which showed that it was not a good memory, "So I don't know what he looks like now and what purpose he has. .”

After such an explanation, the atmosphere became heavier instead, and all kinds of unease and unknowns permeated the air, which made people feel oppressed and breathless.

"That, Xueyin..." Yato suddenly raised his head, and he forced the corners of his lips to Xueyin, "I may not be a good guy."

Xueyin was startled, then turned her head to look out of the window, and said in a nonchalant voice: "Ah, I already knew about that kind of thing."

"..."

"So, after Axi is rescued, you can kneel down and make atonement with us."

"Well... I know, I will."

Yato smiled, it was a feeling that something could suddenly be let go, and he would no longer avoid it, all the things that he had never dared to touch or avoid talking about before, I would tell them all after this time Well, as for Papa and Nora—

After touching Ah Xi's words, he would no longer be able to return to them as an obedient and good boy as before, as if nothing had happened.

I don't want to do that kind of thing anymore.

Yedou's method of saving lives is crude and simple. The wind cave is connected to the underworld. After arriving at Huangliangbiliangban, Xiaofu uses a black weapon to open the wind cave, and then he enters the underworld. Much more convenient.

After choosing a sparsely populated place, Yato and Yukine have already made their preparations——

"Then please, Xiaofu."

Xiao Fu nodded, and called out: "Hei Qi—!"

Dahei turned into a fan and appeared in Xiaofu's hand. She leaped high and slapped it hard towards the ground. The soil loosened, and the wind hole instantly opened up. out.

Holding the black weapon in his hand, Xiaofu gave them a final instruction: "Yatoto, Xiaoxue, you must be careful."

"Ah, don't worry... come here, Yuki." Yato raised his hand to hold the knife again, covered his mouth and nose with his hands and approached the wind acupoint, and said before taking the last step, "Xueyin, think clearly, next But Huang Quan."

"It's too long-winded!"

Yeto raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay, then we will go down."

After saying that, he was about to land in the wind cave with one kick, but at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the nearby grove, and rushed straight to the entrance of the wind cave.

The few of them were frightened by this sudden situation, and before they could stop it, they only heard the figure suddenly yell loudly at the wind cave——

"...!!!"

an unfamiliar name.

However, he brought back a familiar person from under the wind cave and from the depths of Huangquan.

Yato looked at the man who suddenly appeared in disbelief: "You, you are..."

"Ah! It's just like what you said! You're really back!" The woman lying at the mouth of the wind cave stood up, holding her chest and looking happily at the man whom she called back, "I knew you were love." Mine! I want that damned woman to know that you only told me your real name! You only told me one person!"

The man didn't pay attention to anyone around him, he just sat up from the ground silently, holding a severed hand that was still dripping blood in his hand. something in it.

"This is really—" He smiled and raised his head, a carved chopstick in his hand had been broken into two pieces by him, "it was completely put together."

——That is what he brought from the underworld with all his painstaking efforts.
