Walking out of the door of the inn, Hima looked unhappy.

"What a meow, why would I act with you!"

Hima complained a few words about Sennar's walk with her. Their goal was to go out into the streets to find clues to Popin's appearance, and Lilil stayed in the inn to watch the Terran son who had fallen asleep for no apparent reason, and waited for the real subject to return to the inn before explaining the commission.

Originally, Jima wanted to go out with Lilil, but Samuel said that I don't want to sleep alone in the hotel without doing anything, and she quarreled with Jima again. With no other choice, Lilil, in order to stop them from arguing any further, had to offer to let herself stay here.

"You don't understand Lilil's mind at all, she is the one who wants to find Popin the most among us!"

"Does it make sense to fight for this? I don't know what you have in mind, but it's still desirable for her to do so. Although I think you are really unpleasant, there is one thing that cannot be denied, my understanding of the human race, and your strength. ”

"I really didn't expect you to be able to find this meow! Jima, I'm indeed more powerful than you, and I'm better at acting quietly. ”

"What are you sneering at? Meow! Meow that really doesn't get along with you!"

"Each other, each other. ”

"Meow!"

"I advise you to cover your ears better. ”

"Don't be so troublesome, Meow, wait for me here!"

Hima looked left and right, and turned around and walked into a nearby alley with no idea.

Samuel stayed where he was and waited for a few minutes without anyone coming out, and was about to be impatient to curse a few words, when suddenly there was a furry thing on his shoulder, and I don't know if it was intentional or for other reasons, the swept tail blocked the view.

“……”

"Meow!"

Samuel tilted his head and grabbed the tail, which was immediately resisted and nearly bitten on his finger.

"Hurry up and go!"

A voice urged Samuel, and it was so close that it seemed to be speaking to himself close to his ear.

“…… You guy, you can really change casually, don't do superfluous things on my shoulders, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!"

"Your shoulders are too small, the human race is so slender, how good it is to learn from the tiger clan and the lion clan!"

"If you don't shut up, I'll throw you down, and no one will want to know that cats can talk." ”

Glaring at the cat on her shoulder with her head sideways, Samuel threatens her not to do anything attention-grabbing.

"Meow meow!"

In the hotel room, Lilil opened the window, and in order to pass the time, she looked around the room, walked around, and after a while she became bored.

"I didn't expect to be so boring when I came out alone. ”

"How long will Lilil wait, if only she could find Brother Popin soon. ”

"What's the matter with this human race? Are you too tired? I'm sleeping so soundly that I can't wake up no matter how much I scream. ”

"Is it true that all Terrans are like this? Because they want to sleep, they ignore their surroundings and suddenly fall to the ground and sleep whenever they want?

After a few words to herself, Lilil felt that speaking into the air was a waste of mood and sound.

Moving the chair near the table to the side of the bed, resting his elbows on his folded legs, his hands on his chin, and looking at the teenager.

"Meow who looks younger than me, this son of the Terran is really a young meow, when will he wake up? It's really boring meow! Time passes quickly, Lilil can't help but want to sleep!"

******

"Meow!"

The long-haired cat on her shoulder wagged its tail and swept Samuel's cheek several times, as if trying to tell him something.

"Meow!"

"Tsk! I'm really going to throw you down!"

Samuel made a gesture as if he was about to catch a cat's tail, and Hima shook her body, and a muffled voice came from her ears.

"You haven't found this meow yet, we're being followed!"

Samuel's movements slowed down by half a beat, and Hima continued to urge.

"Don't stop meow!"

Sennar smacked his tongue and had to quicken his pace towards the crowded place.

Where there are more people, the easier it is to lose the tracking target, and of course, both Samuel and Hima want to know who is following them. As he walked briskly, he kept an eye on his surroundings, and as soon as he found a narrow alley suitable for concealment, he immediately hid in it.

Samuel leaned against the wall, cautiously poking his head out to stare at the street scene he had just walked through, to see who would look around with reverence.

"There are so many people that you can't see anything, it's time for you to get out of the way. ”

"You're so useless!"

Hima jumped off Samuel's shoulder and blended into the crowd.

Samuel took the opportunity to rub his shoulders, "This guy is so heavy when he turns into a cat, doesn't it mean that no matter how he changes, his weight won't change?"

Himma wandered around in the crowd, full of nasty shoes, walking around, and getting stepped on if you didn't pay attention, what a nasty meow!

After a while, Himma's ears trembled, and she heard some talking.

Cats have always had excellent hearing, and even in this noisy place, as long as they enter a certain range, they can clearly capture various sounds from near to far.

"Where did you go, lost it?"

"I think it's still around here, keep looking!"

(It's a meow here!)

Hima quickly approached the voices.

Hima dodges oncoming passers-by and quickly finds her target.

She looked up at them, their outfits felt familiar......

"Meow?"

"Why did a cat suddenly run out!"

Suddenly Jima was lifted up and hung in the air and struggled.

"Whose pet is lost?"

"Leave the cat alone, you haven't forgotten that we still have a mission. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm a cat party, and I can't help but see such a beautiful cat all of a sudden. ”

"Who cares if you're a cat party and a dog party!

"Meow meow!"

Hima began to show her teeth and claws.

"We won't be able to explain to the chief knight if we waste any more time, what if the target is lost?

Hearing this, Hima stopped opening her eyes and finally remembered why she felt familiar with their outfits, the pattern on their clothes was the symbol of the Temple of the Four Directions, but the style was different, so she didn't notice it immediately at first!

"Meow, what the hell are you meowing, and why are you following our meow?"

"What ??! sound?!"

"Won't it?"

"Is it necessary to be so surprised, meow? Isn't there a magic scroll that transforms now?"

The two glanced at each other, suppressed the surprise in their hearts, and stared vigilantly at the cat in front of them.

"What kind ......of monster are you?

The transformed magic scroll can't flow without any magical breath, so there is only one possibility, this is a high-level magical beast that can talk? It's amazing, it's impossible, it's beyond people's understanding of magic, and why did it suddenly appear here?

"Meow?!"

"There's a lot of people here! ”

Sensing that her hand was loose, Himema returned to the ground, looked up at them, wagged her tail back and forth, and ran forward.

"Do you mean you want us to keep up?"

"Don't think about it, chase it!"

Himma slowly returned to the narrow alley and saw Samuel looking around.

"I brought them here, meow!"

"Bring it here?"

"Literal meow!"

"Hey!"

"It's still the same as before, but it's really tired to become a cat!"

Himma muttered, her ears pricked up, and she heard a voice coming from nearby.

"That cat is running this way, hurry up!"

When they came to the narrow alley, Jima had changed back to the form of a cat-people.

“…… Why are you following us?"

Glancing at them, Samuel estimated in his heart how much strength they had, and how sure he would be if he got into a fight, and more importantly, what was their purpose?

"You're from the temple and why are you following our meow?!"

Hearing Hima say that they were from the temple, Samuel immediately dismissed the idea, wondering if they had made a mistake?

"That's what we want to ask, who are you, and why did you approach Paz?"

"Don't ask so much, look at them so suspiciously, and there are aliens, bring them to the branch and everything is solved. ”

"That's right. ”

"If you don't tell us honestly, you can't blame us for being hurt. ”

The knight put his hand on the saber at his waist, and Samuel's eyes widened, "Are you really here? It's just a misunderstanding, we're just ordinary civilians!

If you fight here, you won't have an advantage over Samuel at all, this path is too narrow to dodge, and if you accidentally get hit by a sword, it will be bad, or will you ...... escape? Can you really escape? Hurry up and explain things clearly, don't be misunderstood.

"What a useless meow, such a flustered meow!"

"I don't have to fight them!

"It's a quarrel? Really don't say it? Then I'll just do it, it's rude. ”

One of the knights took a big step with his sword in hand.

"I don't know what you've misunderstood, but we're definitely not some criminals! As this guy said, we're just ordinary adventurers. I almost forgot to introduce myself, my name is Jima, and this guy who looks flustered is called Samuel. ”

"I just don't want to waste time, don't forget about our mission, more than one thing. ”

"Okay meow!"

"Wait a minute, meow!"

Hima pulled out a magic item, something that Samuel was familiar enough to be familiar with, and it was through that kind of thing that they were talking to people on the other side of the continent.

"Lolog, you're free, meow, we're in some trouble here, I don't think they'll be so easy to listen to our explanations! Please, meow, explain to them, you'd better contact the knight chief here, not everyone in the branch knows the name of the former shaman head of the Suzaku Temple!"

"Wait a minute, it's going to take a little time!"

Looking at the expressions of Hima and Samuel, the two of them retracted their swords at their waists, "No need, it seems that we really misunderstood." ”

Their expressions didn't look like they were lying, and the lie detector stones in their pockets didn't react.

"I'm sorry we misunderstood you. ”

"That's a lot of trouble, okay, you can tell why you're following us!"

"This has nothing to do with you, you can leave now. ”

"Hey, isn't it, it's a deliberate one, and you don't let us know anything now?"

They must have some reason for following themselves, it's all about this, and they can't just say nothing.

“…… This one. ”

"Well, if...... If you feel uncomfortable with something, come to the branch immediately. We still have something to attend to, so we'll leave first. ”

The two of them left the narrow alley one after the other, returned to the street, and glanced back.

"Is it really okay to leave like this? it's just a coincidence, but the knight's order is that he will not let anyone suspicious go, if they are just being taken advantage of?"

"You think too much, you can't let too many people know about it. ”

Lowering his voice, he said to his companion, "We must go back quickly!"

Back in the narrow alley, Hima felt like she couldn't swallow her breath.

"What a meow, an inexplicable meow! A meow who seems to be involved in some kind of event, but doesn't know anything!"

"I also have a feeling of being stalked by the people of the temple, what the hell is going on?"

Samuel wanted to go somewhere else, and he was once on the wanted list, but now he has been whitewashed because of Lorog's relationship, is it ...... And some people are haunted?

“……”

He looked at his hands, which were whitewashed on the surface, but in fact, how could they not be whitewashed?

The goal now is to earn enough money, to own his own estate and servants, and to live like a nobleman, is it not okay?

“…… Meow!"

Himema's cheeks bulged, and she couldn't let go of it.

"It's so uncomfortable to know nothing! They must know something! Meow, probably something to do with Pupin!"

"No matter what, meow!

"Meow, Lolog, you're still there, Meow will take you a little time, you'll be able to solve Meow!"

"Meow? You said that you have left the temple, and you can't contact the people of the other temples whenever you encounter something?

……

…………

"Samuel, let's go to the branch now!"

******

After a day in the palace, my mood inevitably became tired, but I was glad that I didn't see Norman's face today, and it was good that he didn't come today.

"Finally back. ”

Danica returned to her room and closed the door, feeling a little strange about the quiet space.

"What a rarity, is Paz out? His room is so quiet?"

I went to the restaurant before going back to the room, and I didn't see Paz, because I was hungry, so Danica ordered something to eat there,

"You can't be sleeping, is it?"

Paz sometimes looks bigger than himself because of his height, but he is actually a year younger than himself, and when you compare them together, Paz still prefers the baby-faced type. And because they grew up together, in Danica's heart, Paz is like a younger brother.

This idea once came out of his mouth and was immediately refuted.

"You're the lord of the city, and you don't care about this or that every day, and you feel the same way for everyone, right? Standing together, or really like you say, I'm like a brother, I'm really sorry, because you don't look like a fifteen-year-old person, compared to everyone else. ”

"Hey, what he said at the time almost me off. ”

"Well, go see him, and ask Vance by the way. ”

"Maybe Vance came back during the day?"

Coming to Path's room next door, Danica knocked a few times.

"Path, you're here, don't fool me. ”

"I'm in!"

When she opened the door, Danica was stunned.

"Who are you?!"
