[Noragami] I was not there

It was getting late, and the color of the dusk was unusually heavy for some reason, scattered on this land, giving people an inexplicable depression, the surroundings were quiet, and the only thing that could be heard along the way was the sound of trampling under one's own feet.

She and Yetou walked to the place that is said to be the last commission of the day. It was a relatively remote house. If she could say that she had never seen a house worse than Yetou's before, then she now It can be said that she finally saw it.

It's not like a broken house where people actually live in it. You can see the smoke from the kitchen from a distance, and then they broke into other people's house without any consultation. Inside, a middle-aged couple is having sex. Fan, at the moment, was looking at them who suddenly appeared in amazement.

When she saw them, she also had a slight pause. How would she describe that feeling? She had no impression of them at all, yet felt that the two in front of her were inexplicably familiar.

It's so weird.

She shook her head, put away this strange feeling, and took the initiative to speak after looking at the slightly silent Yato: "Excuse me, we received your prayers to help you."

The husband and wife looked at each other, looked at her and then at the little braided boy who was fooling around, with distrust evident on his face.

She could only smile awkwardly, and defended her master: "Maybe it's beyond your imagination, but this one is really a god."

Maybe it was because of her kindness that made people feel good, or maybe they had no other choice after seeking help from the gods. After looking at each other, they knelt down on the ground twice, and grabbed the ground with their heads against Yato: "God, Please help us!"

Yato didn't answer, but looked at the house a few times and then his face turned cold, his blue eyes didn't show any emotion: "Are you rich?"

It didn't seem surprising that he would have such a reaction. She knew that Yato was the kind of person who took money to do things, and maybe she could try to get him to charge less, after all, this family seemed to be unable to support themselves.

The couple trembled after hearing Yeto's words. After a while, the wife took out a string of copper plates from under a tattered quilt and placed them in front of Yeto tremblingly. She lowered her head and said softly, "This, this is Our only savings."

Yato bent down, picked up the string of coins and padded them in his hands. The long silence made everyone else feel uneasy, but before she could speak to break the strange silence, he spoke first: "Okay, say Tell me what it is."

She froze for a moment, and did not come back to her senses until he patted her head. She touched the painful place and pouted to look at him. She didn't expect that he was not a rich man, but he probably couldn't do anything if he had nothing. The understanding is not as much as I thought.

Seeing that Yetou let go, the two couples finally relaxed their tense nerves, and immediately after that, tears burst into the embankment, and they began to talk about their experiences.

The general story The two have a daughter, but many years ago the man got a serious illness and borrowed a lot of money. He was lucky to survive, but because the family had no labor force, their family not only owed debts but also owed taxes for several years , they had nowhere to go, and the worst outcome would be that the whole family would be killed, and the relatives who were near and far had lost contact with each other. They had no choice but to sell their only daughter. Maybe the road ahead would be difficult, but at least they wouldn’t be hurt by their debts. lost his life.

This is not uncommon in this day and age.

"So?" Yato's tone was still calm, he looked down at the two of them, and suddenly took a big step back without changing his face, "It is absolutely impossible to borrow money."

She glanced at him with a little disgust, this guy's focus is always so subtle, and then whispered to the couple: "If it was many years ago, now... are you trying to get your daughter back? "

Seemingly amazed at what she said right away, the couple froze for a moment before nodding, and added: "We have endured the most painful days, and we sold our daughter in the hope that she would not be burdened by us, for fear that she would not be troubled by us." When Ken left, we became cruel again, making her think that we sold her only for money, and the only thing we want to know now is whether she is doing well, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't forgive us."

After listening to the two people's words, she turned her head to look at Yato, no matter what the reason was, whether to take it or not depends on his intentions, but she didn't expect him to put the string of copper coins into his waist.

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, reached out to help the couple in front of her, and then said with a smile: "My Lord God has indeed heard your wishes."

So let’s reassemble the goals of this action.

The couple sold their daughter about seven years ago through traffickers who lived in a village in the southwest. The name was Xingzi, and she had a hemorrhoid on her chin. She was a clever and cute little girl, but time passed so For a long time, this kind of talk is useless, so the name plus the mole is probably the only clue.

She was in a good mood along the way. After all, this was the first time she came out to do a mission with Yeto. She originally thought that his temperament, which valued money as much as his life, would just ignore him and run away, because I didn't expect that Yeto's charging standard was quite good. Low, it was a bit beyond her expectation.

She was looking at the man next to him with his hands in his sleeves, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth. She didn't look back at the man leisurely until she looked back at him, and then walked faster.

In a good mood.

It was very easy for them to find the human trafficker who was the middleman, but the other party obviously couldn't remember that the other party had ever sold such a girl named Kyoko, but when Ye Dou became fierce and could still bluff people, he still held his head and said honestly Seventy-eight out of ten girls are sold to Yoshihara.

She knew Yoshihara, and to put it plainly, Yoshihara was a gathering place for legal brothels in this era. The answer was not too unexpected, and there were only a few ways for traffickers to get young girls out of their hands.

But Yoshihara is so big, there are so many buildings and courtyards, and the difficulty of finding someone has not been reduced much.

"What should I do?" She raised her eyes to look at Yato, who was looking unhappy beside her.

He rubbed his neck, walked in front of the trafficker, cast a huge shadow that enveloped the man with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and said casually, "Just hit another dozen for this kind of thing."

She looked at the man who became a sieve again, and had to admit that this was indeed the simplest and rudest way.

It was night, and she stood in front of the side door of the Butterfly Building, pointing her chin with her index finger and looking at it again and again. Although she couldn't be seen here even if someone was guarding, the locked door was still a test for her.

Tsk, let's wait for Yato to come back.

She shook her head, and was about to find a random corner to sit down when she heard a noise from above. When she looked up, she saw the man with the braids coming back, looking at her with half-closed eyes.

"what are you doing?"

"I can't go in and wait for you to come back." She said it as a matter of course, after all, she is not a fairy, she can escape from heaven and earth.

Originally, he could lift people up with just a stretch of his hand, but now he seems to be in a good mood, squatting on the wall and holding his chin with one hand: "Have you never tried to jump by yourself?"

"Jump by yourself?" She repeated with some confusion, but she soon realized something. She consciously turned her feet back and forth twice, raised her head to fight for the night after getting ready, as if positioning herself, and then squatted down slightly, With both feet, he made a deep leap towards Yato above, and yelled, "Jump!"

"Hey!" Yato yelled in astonishment, obviously he didn't expect her to jump like that and really jumped up, still at that terrifying height.

Yes, she jumped very successfully, and even felt for the first time what it means to be as light as a swallow, but the height was not adjusted properly, and she jumped to the height of a big tree all of a sudden, but she only remembered herself when she fell. It seems that he still can't master the skills well, so he can only watch helplessly as the anxious face of the man below gets closer and closer.

Perhaps out of instinct, she naturally opened her arms to him during the fall. Although she knew she would not die, she closed her eyes and didn't dare to look again. She yelled at him, "Yato! You have to catch me!" ah!"

"Tsk, do you have any other options for me!" Although he said so, he still opened his hands, watching the little figure who was so frightened that he clenched his fists getting closer and closer to him.

For a moment, he seemed to be in a memory of a long, long time ago. The sun was shining brightly, the stream was gurgling, and the always disturbing cicadas became less annoying.

At that time, it was also the same figure, she couldn't come down to pick wild fruits from the tree, and he waited for a long time before looking for her, and suddenly jumped down towards him in such a reckless manner, closing her eyes and saying that she must catch her.

He opened his arms and firmly caught the figure, soft and small, with a few strands of hair brushing against his cheeks, and a pleasant aroma lingered at the tip of his nose.

Then she got out of his arms, her eyes curved like crescent moons when she laughed.

She said, "Yato, you picked me up."

"Yato...Yato?...Yato—!!"

The huge decibel volume exploded in his ears, and the familiar voice pulled him back from the memory scene. What he saw in a blink of an eye was the face of the girl who was too close to him, and even the eyelashes could be clearly counted.

He froze for a moment, yearning to step back, only to find that his back was touching the ground, and when he met the other party's eyes again, there was some flickering: "Why don't you get up!"

"... Then you have to let go first." She sighed, the arms around her were still firmly there, but she didn't mind, and slapped her face with a malicious face to his face, "Or you want to stay like this for a while longer."

Satisfied with the flurry of the people below her, she wanted to laugh, but it was only for a moment, because she found that the guy who was close to her cheek hugged her even tighter, and declared like a rascal——

"Anyway, it's not me who suffers."

Well, she was speechless.

So after a long period of clinging——

"So how did you find someone?"

"It's so big here, of course we came back after going around in circles."

"Eh? So what should we do?"

"Ask someone. If it's really her, you can find out whoever you want."

"It's very thoughtful, don't hurry up."

"We are still on the ground, how do we get there?"

"...Then let go first!"

"Why didn't you let it go first?"

"...Then, let's let go together."

"Then I'll count one, two, three and let them go together."

"it is good."

"...One, two, three, let it go!"

So the two who successfully separated from each other were finally willing to stand up from the ground.

She shook her head, feeling a little embarrassed after knowing it, so she could only cough dryly and look at the slightly extravagant building behind her: "Who do I ask?"

"Tell me, Kyoko, no, which room is Chaoyu in?" Yato's voice came from behind his head, but it was obviously not asking her.

"Hey! Where did you come from!" A person who had never heard of it answered tremblingly.

She turned her head resignedly, and as expected, she saw Yato grabbing a man with "I'm a passerby" written all over his face and asking, he was really amazingly efficient, although it was always in this way.

The result is naturally that they successfully obtained the room where Miss Chaoyu they were looking for lived.

As soon as Yeto let go, he strode in, raised his hand and waved to her to follow.

The two walked towards the direction the man pointed just now, but the journey seemed far less smooth than they thought, because the background music was a bit too much.

"Hmm~ I hate it... Ah! It won't work there!"

"Don't! Don't! Take it easy!"

"Oh! Master, you are so brave!"

... These girls really don't care about their lines when they read their lines.

That's right, this is Yoshihara after all, and it's only natural for these sounds to come out at this time. Although I didn't expect any sound insulation effect, this is too much.

After walking a few steps, she, who had never seen the world, blushed shamefully, and her heart almost collapsed.Just when she was thinking about rushing across the aisle in one breath and forgetting about it, two warm hands suddenly covered her ears.

When she looked up, what she saw was Yato's side face. He didn't look at her, and there wasn't much expression on his face. He just moved a little, and the mouth shape should be——

"Let's go."

So he could see...

She was taken aback by every step, and lowered her head. It turned out that my own god also had a gentle and considerate side.Perhaps only she knew that her cheeks were a little redder than before at this moment, it was a kind of heat that suddenly penetrated into the bottom of her heart.

Something seems to have always existed, and will eventually wake up after a deep sleep.

If this is something that can be called a girl's heart, then it will be offline after the door that should be their destination is opened——

"I don't remember having any guests tonight."

Hearing the noise, it was a beautiful woman who turned around. A mole at the corner of her mouth made her even more enchanting, but at the moment she was naked and topless, with a plump body that was so perfect that it couldn't be more or less. In front of her, when she saw clearly that she was not someone she was familiar with, she was only stunned for a moment. She didn't see any shame when someone saw her body, and she smiled lazily and softly. A cigarette rod rested between the slender fingers, and the body leaning against the vanity mirror became softer.

"Who are you two?"

She froze for a moment, then turned her head subconsciously, and sure enough, she saw that someone looked at the naked big girl with her eyes almost erected, and a burst of anger rushed to the top of her head, and she slammed her hands at the eyeballs that were about to pop out. Stamp: "What are you looking at?!"

Fuck her girlish heart!
