Zongman started from grabbing girls with Wuhe Shidao

"Ah... Shidou hastily wiped his tears with the sleeve of his uniform, and then replied Tohka: "I'm fine. "

Seeing Shidou like this, Tohka frowned, but probably thought that since Shidou said he was fine, it would not be good to ask further, even fidgeting, he didn't say anything.

"Why..." ──Crying?Shidou muttered to himself.

Is it because of origami?Because Origami and himself will never meet again?In my own world, origami disappeared...

Wait...disappeared...disappeared?Origami disappeared?No... Origami just returned to her normal life...

"Or... I... forgot something?" Shidou muttered to himself---

... ...

... ...

In the evening, Kotori sat on the sofa in her living room with her hair tied up with a black ribbon, staring intently at a certain place.

In front of her line of sight was the back of her brother, Shidou, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen.The sky blue apron suits him perfectly.

That being said, the scene itself is not unusual.However, Kotori felt strongly that something was wrong with Shidou since this morning.

Early in the morning, he rushed downstairs aggressively, confirmed the date and hugged Kotori tightly, only to feel that his words and deeds seemed to have not woken up. This time, he changed 180 degrees, with heavy face expression back from school.What happened to cause his mood to take a turn for the worse?

"...Huh!" Kotori snorted, then turned the candy bar in her mouth around, and changed back to her original position.

I always feel very uncomfortable in my heart.

──Something happened behind Kotori's back that shook Shidou's heart so much, it made her feel uncomfortable.

After Kotori changed sides with a straight face, Yoshino, who was also looking at Shidou before, said worriedly: "Shidou...what's wrong?" She is a girl with fluffy hair and eyes like sapphires. , a girl about the same height as Kotori.

Now she is wearing a light-colored one-piece dress.

"That is to say, she looks listless~~" In line with Yoshino's words, Yoshino, the rabbit puppet worn on her left hand, opened and closed her mouth.

Then, the other girl sitting next to Yoshino—Nanazui showed a bored expression, and put her hand on her chin to respond: "...Look at his preoccupied appearance—he must be worrying about women."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"A woman...?"

Kotori and Yoshino looked sideways at Nanatsu with interested expressions.

However, after being looked at by the two of them, Seven Sins lost confidence... "Ah, no, maybe I made a mistake, so don't worry too much..."

"Don't let your attitude get weak at this moment, let me tell you what you think." Kotori stretched out her hands to grab Nana Sin's head, and turned her to face herself.

So, although Nana's eyes shifted anxiously, he still nodded. "...When it comes to things that trouble male high school students, usually the reason comes from women, right? It can't be because of men---"

"Hmm... Makes sense, but you mean, Shidou was dumped by a girl...?"

"I don't dare to be so sure...But, boys at that age basically act based on what girls think of them... Like strange rumors about themselves are spreading among girls, or the girl next door treats me It’s very cold or something, and it’s easy to feel down.”

"Yes...is that so..." Yoshino finished with a docile expression.

Seven Sins nodded deeply and continued to make remarks: "That's it. Others are like saying to others: 'Let's be a team!' But the other party really disgusted replied: 'Hey...' or help others pick up Pick up the eraser that fell on the ground, but the other party replied: "Ah... I don't want that, I give it to you..." and so on..."

"Seven...seven crimes...?" Kotori's eyelids twitched---

But Seven Sins continued as if he didn't hear it, "When the club activities are actively recruiting new members, I took the application form to the club, but the other party said: 'Ah! But the morning exercises in our club are really hard, can you bear it? Really You don’t have to force yourself into our club.’ There’s also dodgeball in PE class. When I’m about to throw the ball, the other party runs away screaming “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” downright!"

"You...you calm down!" I always felt that the second half was already like Seven Sins was venting her resentment...

"... Anyway... Anyway, I think something must have happened to him at school..." Seven Sins said with a little shortness of breath.Kotori also held the same opinion on this point.She squinted at Shidou's somewhat lonely back, and nodded slightly.

"Anyway, if it's such a trivial matter, it doesn't matter if he doesn't care...By the way, do you feel...something is missing?" Just as she was speaking, Kotori's eyes stopped on a single sofa, and she suddenly frowned. frowning...

"Huh? Something is missing? We were discussing Shidou just now?" Nanami tilted her head.It means that this topic spans really fast...

Yoshino also looked at Kotori strangely, as if she was very puzzled by what she just said.

"Ah... is it... nothing..."

... ...

... ...

After Shidou let out a sigh, he shook his head lightly.

He seems to be more concerned about this inexplicable... sense of lack than he imagined?

However, he can't always maintain this attitude.If Kotori and the others continued chopping vegetables without thinking, Kotori and the others would eat vegetables full of Shidou's blood.

"Ah---concentrate! Don't think about anything else!" After Shidou took a deep breath to cheer himself up, he held the kitchen knife again.

... ...

When eating, Shidou, who was a bit out of his mind, almost stuffed the food into his nostrils several times --- a few times he missed the food, and as if he didn't see it, he put the empty chopsticks into his mouth.

In the end, Kotori couldn't stand it any longer---

"Shidou! If you continue to be depressed, it will be a headache for me, because I don't know when spirits will appear again. Of course, there are unknown spirits, and Kurumi, let alone that【Devil (Devil)】── ─" "Huh?" Hearing the identification name Kotori said, Shidou couldn't help frowning.

"Wait...wait a minute, Kotori, 【Demon】...? What happened to that elf?"

Shidou quickly looked at Kotori and asked. [Devil], at least Shidou has never heard of this title.

However, Kotori frowned suspiciously.

"What are you talking about, Shidou? It's that [demon] that hunts spirits! It's the same [Nightma

e)] Tokisaki Kurumi is also listed as a first-level alert, isn't it?Don't say you forgot. "

"Same as Tokisaki-san...?" Shidou's forehead was dripping with sweat.

The fact that this world has evolved is subtly different from the world Shido knew──Shido deeply understands this today.

That being the case, it is not impossible that there are spirits that Shidou doesn't know about.

But——Shidou couldn't believe it for a while, that there was already a spirit listed as the most evil spirit, Kuumi, who must be vigilant.

Seeing Shidou's reaction, Kotori folded her arms even more puzzled.

"Are you... are you serious? What happened to you today? It's as if you lost your memory before yesterday."

"...Ahhh, sorry." Hearing Kotori's words, although not far, Shidou bowed his head slightly to apologize.Then, after Kotori let out a big sigh, he raised up the doubly good candy stick in his mouth.

"...So, you really don't remember?"
