The twilight is pale, from afar, and the long night begins here. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Marisa!" Mori took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and shouted, "Go get me a lamp! ”

"OK!" came a boyish girl's voice from the room behind him.

A short time later, a blonde girl the age of cardamom walked in with an oil lamp. The girl placed the oil lamp on the table beside him, then stood aside, quietly looking at his back.

In the dim light, Rinnosuke rummaged through the overcrowded cabinet, eventually pulling out a somewhat worn wooden chest.

"The props in this box are astronomical telescopes, which are used to observe the starry sky, and I think they should meet your requirements. He handed the wooden box to the maiden, and continued, "I tried to use it a few times last summer, and I could see the surface of the moon clearly, but that was its limit. ”

"That's it, that's it! It's perfect to see the moon!"

The girl happily took the box, but she didn't expect her arm to sink and almost stumble it to the ground.

"Hmm, it's so heavy!"

She squatted and steadied her weight, her arms supporting the bottom of the box, barely able to hold the wooden box, which was much heavier than it looked. Seeing this, Rinnosuke hurriedly went up and grabbed the wooden box, lest she accidentally break the box.

"Take it easy, it's fragile. He said with a look of displeasure.

"Don't you care about me compared to that thing?"

"Not at all. ”

"Phew, stupid Xianglin!" the girl stuck out her tongue, turned her head and ran out of the room, and did not forget to throw down the next sentence: "Remember to move it to my house tomorrow!"

This guy, borrowing something from someone else, even brazenly asked for a home delivery service service. Rinnosuke didn't know how to say that she was okay for a while, so he had to shake his head helplessly.

Then again, this guy borrowed something and never looked back. The word "borrow" in her mouth seems to be synonymous with "stealing". Even so, Rinnosuke couldn't get angry at all. Anyway, that's what he watched grow up as a child, and she would develop into the character she is now, and he also has part of his responsibility.

This girl's name is Marisa Kiriyu.,It's Rin Nosuke's old owner.,The daughter of the manager of the prop house Kiriyu shop.。 This kid fell out with his family two years ago, and he went to the old house in the Enchanted Forest to open a "Fog and Rain Magic Shop". She said it was a "shop", but in fact she never sold anything, and her livelihood depended on petty theft and the bounty of nature.

Remembering his friendship with the head of the Kiriyu family, since Marisa ran away from home, Rinnosuke has always taken care of her, intentionally or unintentionally, so that her solitary life is not too difficult. Over time, Marisa has completely regarded Xianglintang as her home, and she always comes here to eat and drink openly, and she is unambiguous when she moves things out. In this regard, Rinnosuke didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

For him, as long as Marisa can grow up healthy, it will probably be enough.

"Jingle bell!"

Marisa opened the door with a brass bell on the door frame, which rang a crisp bell. Normally, the lazy Rin Nosuke relies on this bell to know the entry and exit of customers, and if the other party doesn't talk to him at the counter, he won't even have to look up.

“...... Become a girl!"

"Ahh

There was another jumble of shouts outside the door, but it wasn't from Marisa's mouth. Rinnosuke put down what he was holding and walked out slowly, to see what trouble Marisa had caused this time.

"Sakiya, the umbrella can be put away. ”

"Yes, Miss. ”

Losing the protection of the parasol, Remilia was so dazzled by the light of the setting sun that she couldn't open her eyes for a while. However, the impact of the sun on her at this time is limited to that. She slowly opened her eyes, looking as she walked at the remnant sun that was sinking below the horizon.

"I love twilight. She muttered to herself.

Dusk, at the turn of day and night, is one of the few moments she has a day when she can soak up the sun as a vampire, so she always enjoys this moment. After all, almost all vampires have dreams of overcoming the sun, and only a handful of them can actually do so.

One of these very few people is now by her side.

"I don't hate the time I spend chatting with you, but I think," Remilia said, looking up at the vampire who didn't have to hide from the sun, "you're wasting your time, Nalan. ”

"If your clothes are torn, just go find Patchy, she can fix it with magic. Or ask Sakuya to help, her sewing skills are quite good. As for the tea, the tea of Xianglintang is not at the same grade as my family's tea. ”

"Anyway, why don't you just come to my house, and let that old, poor little broken shop fend for itself. ”

"Don't worry, Remy. Nalan shook his index finger and said with a smile, "'People' like you and me have time to waste, don't they?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Sixteen Nightsakiya by the way, as if this sentence was also addressed to her. To this, Sakiya only smiled back.

"Hmph, anyway, I'm just willing to accompany you for the sake of your face as an elder, and others don't have this treatment!"

"I am very honored. ”

The three of them walked nearly two kilometers before the last rays of daylight disappeared, and finally arrived at the door of the antique shop.

It was a room that was hard to ignore, with a tiled roof with chinoiserie-style cornices at the edges, a large wooden plaque with the words "Korindo" hanging above the door, creepers growing on the walls, and a pottery statue of Shigaraki in the doorway—all of which were normal. But the things piled up around the house, such as wheelbarrows, traffic signs, scrap tires, microwave ovens, phone booths, etc., are completely confusing.

In the outside world, such places are commonly referred to as "scrap yards".

"It's really, unbelievably dirty!" Nalan Yu sighed.

"I'll just say, there's nothing here but rags, let's go. ”

"Don't worry, little girl. Nalan Twilight looked down at Remilia and said, "I never judge a book by its cover, and if you want to know the truth, you have to go in and see it yourself." ”

"I'm not a little girl!" Remilia protested.

"Haha, it seems to me that you will always be a little girl. Anyway, we can just push the door open and go in now, right? After all, this is a store......" Nalan said as she walked to the door.

"Jingle bell!"

As soon as he reached for it, the door opened on its own. Before he could react, a witch flying at high speed on a broom rushed out of it and collided with him straight ahead.

"Oops!

The witch lost her balance and fell off the broom, squatting. She didn't expect any obstacles outside the door, so she kept flying at full speed. Nalan Twilight, who was hit by her, was taken out by the broom for several meters after she landed, and it took her to stabilize herself.

"I'm ...... Go!" Nalan let out a scream, then clutched his crotch and fell to the ground in pain.

The tip of the broom stabbed directly into a key part below his waist and above his knees, and at the speed at which time, I am afraid that Nalan Twilight's little brother would have already crumbled into cucumber dregs. To make matters worse, vampires have much more sensitive senses than humans, including pain, of course.

"You...... You black and white!" Remilia shouted at this, "Look what you've done!"

"Eh, what's ......?"

The witch stood up, patted her buttocks, looked at the broom on the ground, and then at Nalan Twilight, who was in a strange posture, but finally didn't figure out what was happening.

"Miss," Sakiya pulled out a knife from under her skirt and asked with a serious face, "Do you need me to clean up this mouse on the spot?"

"Wait, wait......" The blonde witch hurriedly stretched out her hands and said in a loud voice, "Something to say, something to say! What the hell is going on?"

"Don't you realize what happened!" Remilia cried out, "It's all because of you, it's all because of you!

"Lao Tzu...... When...... Is it a woman?" Nalan Shang, who was lying on the ground, said breathlessly, "You guys...... Give me a minute. ”

"Uhh......h Seeing this, the three girls next to them involuntarily took a few steps back, for fear that a monster full of tentacles would suddenly emerge from this guy's body.

After about a minute, Nalan Yu stood up with difficulty, his face pale and sweating profusely, as if he had experienced a catastrophe. Of course, his experience can indeed only be described as a disaster.

"Before, an old man told me, 'Healing is six times more painful than being injured,' and today I have learned it thoroughly. ”

"So what the hell is going on?" The blonde girl in the black and white witch costume is still confused.

"It's just a small thing...... Nalan looked at her with a wry smile, "Of course, if I wasn't a vampire, you'd be in for a big deal." ”

"Marisa, what's going on, so noisy?" asked a tall, lanky, silver-haired man pushing the door open, a puzzled expression.

The man wore a pair of glasses, a strange Taoist costume, and a fanny pack around his waist, more like a scholar than a merchant.

"I don't know what's going on, so you might as well ask him. The witch pointed at Nalan and said.

"Uh, that's it...... It's hard to put into words. Nalan Hui was slightly embarrassed in the face of the two people's eyes, "Let's go into the house and sit and talk slowly, I originally planned to go to the house to have a look." ”

He looked at the silver-haired man, and forced out a smile, and even Sixteen Nights began to admire his strong will.

"Presumably you are the owner of this Xianglin Hall, right?" asked Nalan Yu.

"Mori Kinrin's help. The man gave his name, "Just call me Rinnosuke." ”

"Luckily, Mr. Rinnosuke, my name is Nalan Twilight, and I'm a vampire passing by. ”

"I don't know what's going on, but since we're guests, let's go inside. Rinnosuke opened the wooden door and made a "please" gesture.

Nalan Twilight walked in directly, and Remilia glared fiercely at the witch named Marisa before also walking in with Sakuya. Eventually, Marisa was left alone outside the door, standing there bewildered.

"I'll probably have to listen to it......" she thought about it, and finally walked into the house.
