Natsume’s Youth Story

Since last night, until now, he has not eaten a mouthful of food, and coupled with the fatigue of last night, Natsume feels that he really can’t bear it.

Especially looking at Hiratsuka Jing’s delicious appearance, it is even more difficult.

“I knew I had eaten and came here again.”

Natsume felt a hint of helplessness, but unfortunately, even if he regretted it now, it was too late.

“Suck yo~~~”

“Gollum~~~”

After eating the noodles and drinking the soup, Hiratsuka Shizune made a satisfied sound, and after putting down the bowl and chopsticks, he realized that Natsume was looking at him beside him, and he couldn’t help but blush, very embarrassed.

“Ahem, what, let’s talk about you now.”

Hiratsuka Shizune quickly changed the topic and said with a serious look at Natsume.

“Yes, Hiratsuka-sensei.”

Natsume nodded.

The position of the sofa, Hiratsuka Shizune and Natsume both sat down.

“How, Natsume, activities in the Ministry of Service? Still adapting? ”

Hiratsuka asked as he looked at Natsume.

“Well, I like the ministry very much.”

Natsume smiled when he spoke about the ministry.

“Is that so? That’s good. ”

Seeing this, Hiratsuka was also relieved, if Natsume didn’t like it, it would be an ordeal to stay there, so it was better to leave early.

Fortunately, now Natsume, enough fun there, this is fine.

“Since there is nothing wrong with the ministry, let’s talk about you, what happened?” After all, it’s rare to see you being so late for so long? ”

Hiratsuka looked at Natsume curiously, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

“Don’t worry, Hiratsuka-sensei, I really don’t have anything to do, I just accidentally overslept, plus I was a little tired last night, that’s why it’s like this, I promise there won’t be another time.”

Natsume quickly assured.

“In this way, if you don’t have some trouble, it will be better.”

Hiratsuka was relieved, after all, Natsume’s words were also a very reassuring child.

“Okay, that’s it, you hurry up and eat.”

Hiratsuka gestured for Natsume to leave.

“I’ll go first, Hiratsuka-sensei.”

After hearing this, Natsume also quickly chose to leave, after all, he was really hungry.

“But… Is it my delusion? Always feel that the breath on Natsume’s body seems to have changed? Seems to have matured a lot? ”

Looking at Natsume’s departing back, Hiratsuka Shizune also felt a hint of strangeness, of course, because she was thirty years old, so she couldn’t see what the specific situation was.

Department of Science.

After Natsume took his lunch, he rushed to the science department and began to eat quickly.

“What’s wrong? Natsume? Feel like you’re hungry? ”

Mai, who had arrived here a long time ago, looked at Natsume’s appearance and became strange.

“And it’s been so long late today, what’s going on? Natsume? ”

Futaba also cared, wanting to know if Natsume was in trouble, especially Futaba thought of the thing that Natsume contacted him yesterday and asked, I don’t know if it was related to that matter?

“It’s okay, I was just called by Shizune Hiratsuka, so I didn’t eat lunch in time.”

Natsume quickly explained, as for what happened last night, he still didn’t plan to say it, because there was no need for it.

Even though Futaba and Mai already knew about youkai, that didn’t mean Natsume wanted them to touch too much on such things.

Humans and monsters, after all, are not a world, too much contact, sometimes will inevitably lead to trouble.

“So it is.”

After hearing Natsume’s words, Futaba and Mai didn’t think too much, looked at Natsume, who was hungry, and gave Natsume a part of his bento.

In the afternoon ministry, after class, Natsume hurriedly appeared in the ministry, because Natsume came too early, so only Yukino was alone in the ministry.

“Natsume? Did it come so early? ”

Yukino, who had just arrived at the Ministry of Service, had just begun to boil water, and when he saw Natsume’s arrival, he showed a surprised expression, because Natsume was in a hurry to see it.

“Under the snow, I have something to do, so I want to take a day off.”

Natsume was a little embarrassed.

“Did something happen? Is there anything we can help with? ”

Yukino looked at Natsume and asked, wondering if there was anything she could help with, but if she could, she still wanted to help Natsume, even if it was about youkai.

“It’s okay, I can handle it.”

Natsume said with a smile.

“Natsume…”

Looking at Natsume, who obviously did not intend to say it, Yukino was silent for a moment, and finally, he still made a decision and walked in front of Natsume.

“Natsume.”

I saw Yukino stretch out her hand at this moment, grabbed the corner of Natsume’s clothes, and had a hint of anticipation in her eyes, “If you can, I hope you can learn to rely on us more, even if we can’t see youkai, but there should be something we can do, right?” ”

Yukino, who said this, looked at Natsume’s eyes with a hint of expectation.

It was too much work for a person to shoulder so many words, so she hoped that Natsume could learn to rely on them more, at least in this way, it should be easier, right?

“Under the snow…”

Natsume looked at Yukino blankly, obviously not expecting the other party to say such a thing.

“Can you rely on us more? Please. ”

Yukino who said this was fragile, like a weak cat.

“Thank you, Yukishita.”

Natsume smiled and expressed his gratitude to Yukino, in this moment, Natsume did something he would never normally do.

I saw Natsume take the initiative to step forward, and then hug Yukino in front of him.

“This…”

Yukino’s pupils constricted, she had no idea that Natsume would do such a thing.

“Thank you, Yukishita.”

Natsume’s embrace retreated.

“Now… Can you tell us about the trouble you’re having? ”
