Dimensional Apartment Manager

If Natsume was present, he would definitely remind Jiuye not to speak out, because Natsume didn't want to involve the people around him in trouble with monsters.

Thinking of this, Jiu Ye took out a box of desserts and handed them to Toru.

"Student Duolan, this dessert is just a thank you gift for helping me. See you soon."

"Wait, wait, I didn't help you just to thank you!"

Because Tou suddenly became excited, Jie ran behind Jiuye like a frightened kitten, even trying to hide her head in Jiuye's clothes.

Don't do that!Jiu Ye pinched Knot's left cheek lightly with her hands, telling the little girl not to tear off her clothes without authorization, after all, the wind in winter night would make people shiver with cold if it poured into the clothes.

"I'm not saying that you want to thank the gift, but now I don't have any troubles."

"Oh! Do you think I'm not good at observation? Natsume-san always shows your expression, so I know exactly what troubles you, right?"

Jiu Ye was shocked by Toru's sensitivity, which may be the sensitivity that Natsume cultivated for her.

Natsume Takashi... A boy who can see monsters will not share his troubles with others, and will not think of relying on people other than Mr. Kitty until later.

"I say it's trouble... more like confusion, right? It's almost the same anyway, but I actually want to find a shrine."

"shrine?"

"Yes, a shrine. I don't know what kind of shrine it is. Wait, maybe there is a junior high school student in that shrine, and there is a maiden with red hair!"

"Don't say such things on the street! Is Mr. Jiuba a junior high school shrine maiden? Hmm... that's how the term should be used on the Internet, right?"

Tou was puzzled by her speech. It seemed that she was getting new knowledge. Jiuye began to consider whether to give her some GAL GAME.

"I don't know much about the shrine. I have followed my grandfather before, and I have a different look. As for the red-haired witch, I have never seen it. If I have, I must have an impression."

The girl's answer made Jiuye a little frustrated, after all, she couldn't provide useful information.

What a trouble, Jiuye was taken advantage of by Jie when she felt helpless, she got into Jiuye's clothes like a little kangaroo.

Cold!Jiuye felt an extra piece of ice in his clothes, and his whole body shivered.

Whoa!Xuetong is so cold!It's okay to sleep with it in your arms in summer!It's unacceptable now.

"There's something wrong with your face, Mr. Jiuye."

"It's nothing, I just remembered the experience of ice cream in winter."

To be honest, Jiuye does occasionally eat ice cream in winter... that's a different feeling.

"Forget it, he is indeed a strange person. Then why did Mr. Jiuba find the shrine? To go there to pay homage?"

"No, it's not like that, there's some other reason."

"What's the reason?"

"This one……"

"It's okay, I shouldn't ask."

She smiled a bit, and she felt that it was inappropriate for her to ask too many questions.

Jiu Ye, who was opposite her, tried to pull the ice cubes out from under the clothes behind her back, but was hugged tightly by Knot. This guy didn't seem to like staying in such a crowded place all the time.

It's like an idiot, thinking that covering your eyes can block everything.

In fact, adults do it sometimes, right?Foolishly blindfolded, put his thoughts elsewhere, fantasizing about being in a bright future.

Not only humans, but even monsters can deceive themselves, so it is necessary to let them grow.

"By the way! When it comes to red, I remember that there is a shrine in a place that has bright red shimenawa. Those shimenawa are used to surround the sacred tree, and there are emas hanging on it, but the emas will be destroyed soon. Burn it for 'prayer'."

"Really?! It's most likely that! Hey! Did you hear that?"

Jiuye patted Jie's head lightly, but only got a fist response from the other party, most of which were speeches that he didn't hear clearly.

"Thank you so much! The problem has been settled!"

"Really? It would be great if I could help Mr. Kuba. I'm also very happy because I'm Natsume-kun's friend."

"Come on for a hug!"

"Oh?! Wait!"

Jiuye was not pushed away after hugging her, and Tou, who became shy, didn't know how to react for a moment.

"Ah... woah, this... wait...!"

Is this the [Protagonist Halo] activation?Jiuye guessed in his heart.

"Mr. Jiuye! What are you doing!"

Boom boom!Jiuye was slapped on the back of the head, and then his left ear was picked up.

"It scares the multi-track classmates."

"It hurts! It hurts! It's just that I was too excited just now!"

"It's not an example."

The person who appeared was Natsume, who quickly let go of Jiuye's ears with a serious expression on his face.

"Little! Kitty!"

Forgetting the little episode just now, Toru suddenly handed over all the things to Natsume, hugging Mr. Kitty and dawdling with him.

"Damn! Damn! Let go of me! You stinky girl!"

"Ah, it's so soft and comfortable, this feeling! It's a winter paradise!!"

He has almost completely become a believer in Teacher Cat.

Natsume, who was carrying something, reluctantly withdrew his gaze from them, Jiuye immediately said after realizing that he was being stared at

"Doko-san said she knew a shrine that used this bright red shimenawa."

"That's good information."

"Well~ don't be angry, Natsume-kun, it was just an accident just now; by the way, I didn't find the youkai you were looking for, and I will take Yuto to the shrine mentioned by Doku-san later, so..."

"It's okay, I'll take it easy here."

Natsume glanced at the knot hiding in Jiuye's clothes.

"Let's give priority to your side."

Natsume understood the previous expression, which made Jiuye a lot easier.

Leaving the main street, Jiuye handed a prized dessert to Knot beside her on the way to the nearby park. After she opened it, she handed the small piece of paper inside to Jiuye.

"Big brother...this..."

"Oh, in the future, you can go there and choose five kinds of desserts freely, and there is no charge, which is the 'first prize'."

"First prize?"

He recounted it puzzledly.

"It's a great award."

Natsume responded on the sidelines, making Yui show a happy expression.

"Will you be lucky in the future?"

"I suppose so, no, it must be so."

Jiu Ye, who affirmed the knot's words, raised his head, and the white air he exhaled was once again assimilated by the night.

Take your time, it will definitely work out.

"You two come over and help!!!"

"Mr. Jiuye, please investigate carefully later."

"no problem."

Both Jiuba and Natsume ignored Mr. Cat who was being dawdled by the madman.

"Are you two demons!"

The voice of Mr. Cat echoed on the street. Compared with the cold winter, the enthusiasm here makes it less scary.

The update says!

Chapter 6 Hisaba and Natsume's Night Talk

I don’t know when it started. The brave can defeat the devil without a weapon, the teleportation can be completed without a prelude, the rebirth can be invincible without effort, and it is natural for young girls to lead. This world has undergone earth-shaking changes. Only Very few things remain in their original posture.

Jiuye is currently in such a world, where the freshest and gentlest stories that are slightly plain, bittersweet and sweet happened here, and then dissipated in the long river of time.

Perhaps just like Natsume Reiko 'stealing' the name from the monster, Jiu Ye established an inseparable connection with Yukido when he named it 'Knot', whether it is good or bad is not very clear.

But Kuha is lucky now, at least he got information about the shrine that uses red shimenawa from Natsume's classmate, a girl named Toru Toru.

Originally, Jiuye planned to go directly to investigate and investigate, but in the end, he chose to give up because of tiredness and late time, and planned to act the next day.

Since he had to rest for a night, Jiu Ye decided to rent a hotel nearby for one night, but was invited by Natsume to his home as a guest.

"Aunt Tazi said that I hope Mr. Jiuye will come to have dinner once. Of course, it's okay if you don't have time."

"Oh, it would be nice to try Auntie Toko's food in person. Didn't Natsume-kun say it was delicious?"

"Of course, I can still guarantee this."

In fact, Jiuye originally planned to refuse, but he felt that it was too inefficient for him to run around with knots alone, and he should investigate further; Natsume who lives in this city does not know all the shrines, but he will know some of himself. Something I don't know.

After that, I went to Natsume's house, and Jiuye was warmly received by the Fujiwara couple, which made Jiuye feel a little cheeky...

In order not to continue to cause trouble for them, Jiu Ye prepared to leave with Yu after eating, and by the way, Yu had dinner with Mr. Kitty in Natsume's room.

"Thank you for the hospitality, it's really delicious! There is one more thing I want to ask Ms. Fujiwara, is there a hotel near here?"

"No place to live? Why didn't you say it earlier, in fact, it's not too late now."

Aunt Tazi, who held her face in her hands, did not answer Jiuye's question accurately, while Uncle Zi, who was sitting on a chair not far away and reading a newspaper, said softly

"It's fine to stay here for one night, we still have vacant rooms."

"No, no, no, no, I think it's better for me to find a hotel nearby."

Speaking of this, Jiuye planned to go upstairs to bring the knot down, but he heard Uncle Zi's voice on the way

"You young people like to spend money in meaningless places, and staying here for one night will not cause us much trouble, or is it okay to dislike our environment here?"

"How is it possible, it's not good to just continue to trouble you."

"No problem, it's rare to have friends from Guizhi come here."

"Ugh……"

It's getting more and more embarrassing...

"Don't worry, Jiuye-kun, the weather is fine today, so I just dried the quilt, and the bath water is ready, do you want to go wash with Guizhi?"

"" This is no longer necessary! ""

"Well, you don't need to answer me together, it's just a joke."

Just kidding.

Jiuye didn't know how to deal with this couple for a while.

If it was Jiuye's own parents, he felt that his mother would say, 'Take out the summer swimming pool and pour hot water in it, let's wash together! 'This kind of unreliable words, um...it's better to be ordinary.

It was hard to say no to being treated with such kindness and tenderness.

----

After eating dinner and taking a bath, Jiu Ye, who didn't bring a change of clothes, changed into the kimono that Uncle Zi used to wear. He began to think about whether he should give them some money tomorrow. After all, it feels much more comfortable than staying in a hotel. It makes people feel a little sorry.

"It's already late at night..."

Jiu Ye lived in the guest room on the second floor of Fujiwara's house, which was cleaned very cleanly. Surprisingly, the quilt still smelled of sunshine, and it was very warm when covered.

But Jiuye, who hasn't fallen asleep directly, looks at the monster staying in the corner. The snow girl 'Jie' who was born in winter is sleeping. Jiuye wanted her to sleep under the quilt at first, but she refused.

why?Is it because you are a snow boy, so you will be melted in the bed?impossible.

In any case, Jie, who was not afraid, chose to sleep with her knees hugged in the corner of the room, and Jiuye didn't force her to do anything, only letting her choose.
