Natsume was shocked after hearing this: "There is one person missing, do you mean me?"

Hinoeda didn't deny it, "Well, the evil spirit youkai that is gradually regaining its strength can't wait, so its shadow flew over to you, absorbing the essence through the seal on your arm, and the shadow's movements will get faster and faster, and now although the movement is still very slow, it is not easy to find your home." Hinoshi took a puff of her cigarette and smiled dangerously and said, "If you touch it, you'll die." ”

Hearing this, Natsume couldn't help but hold his left arm with his right hand, and the cat teacher who had been squatting in Natsume's jacket pocket suddenly felt that something was wrong with the power in his body, and the demon power began to run around, although he tried to close his eyes and wanted to suppress it, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

Teacher Cat came out of Natsume's pocket, and his delicate figure began to grow, and finally turned into a huge glutinous rice dumpling, the size of a car, and fell to the ground with a loud bang, Natsume stared at the sudden change with wide eyes and opened his mouth, and said in horror: "Teacher, it's so big." ”

The cat teacher, who was very troubled by the uncontrollable power in his body, said: "Because of the curse, my demonic power can't be stabilized! "Teacher Cat lost his temper with his voice that had become bigger and thicker, and the usual action of slapping the ground with his paws became extraordinarily loud, and a few paws went down the mountain and shook the ground and the dust was all over the sky.

Natsume hurriedly stopped the cat-sensei's loud movement, "Hey, hands, stupid." ”

Then Aunt Tazi's voice came from the house, "Guizhi, Guizhi, are you back?" When Aunt Tazi opened the sliding door at the entrance and looked out, Natsume and they had already hidden it first, so Aunt Tazi naturally didn't see any figures, "It's strange, I heard a voice." ”

With Natsume, the cat teacher who was hiding in the corner of the house peeked at Aunt Tazi's side, "That shadow, can I eat it?" ”

Hinoeda also looked at this shadow and said to the cat teacher, "Don't want to touch it if you don't have a seal." Then there was a solution to Natsume that she had come up with, "However, it doesn't matter, anyway, there are still four days left for the effect of the five-day seal, so you can hide for another four days!"

Natsume thought about it, how did he feel that this method was unreliable, "Is it okay to hide from it?"

"That's the only thing I've thought of before, so just give it a try. Hinoeda said irresponsibly.

Natsume had no choice but to do this, "There are still four days. ”

At night, Natsume looked at the table where Aunt Tako poured wine for Mr. Shi, and in a happy atmosphere, he couldn't help but think in his heart, "I don't want them to worry, and I don't want to cause trouble for them, but as long as I'm here, those troubles will come to the door, and I don't know what will happen." ’

So Natsume crept out of his second-floor window with a rope like a thief at night, and nested in the woods with the giant cat teacher wrapped in a blanket overnight, in order to prevent Aunt Tako from discovering her abnormality, so Natsume lived a life of sleeping outside at night and going back early in the morning.

Looking at the dark shadow in the corridor that had entered the house all night, Natsume passed by it with a schoolbag, and as soon as he left the house, Natsume began to run wildly, "Damn, damn Marie, I'm actually already in the house, I'd better not go back, fortunately, it's a day off from tomorrow." ’

Natsume couldn't help but think about it when he was in class, and the book was full of Marie and Marie, which caused Kitamoto to come over curiously and asked, "Natsume, are you in love with a foreign beauty?"

Even Nishimura came to join in the fun "international!"

In the end, Natsume planned everything at the end of school, and called Aunt Tako at home in a phone booth outside the school: "Is it Aunt Tako? I'm Takashi." Starting today, I will stay at my classmate's house for three days. Natsume then said, "It's not... Be... No, who is living in, that, everyone is waiting for me, hang up first. After speaking, he was afraid of revealing his stuffing, so he quickly hung up the phone.

"Guizhi" Aunt Tazi looked very worried on the other end.

Natsume pushed open the door of the phone booth a little weakly, a little worried that Aunt Tako's she would be worried, but if I was at home, it would cause them trouble, so I would have told Aunt Tazi that I would go back to Fushimi, so she would be more at ease. ’

The severe pain made Natsume can't help but kneel on one knee and pant loudly, Natsume's body has not mobilized divine power for a long time to expel the foreign body in the body little by little, Hinoeda stood next to Natsume and looked at the somewhat stubborn Natsume and said, "You are different from Reiko, you like humans." ”

Natsume looked into the distance as if recalling something, "When I was a child, I didn't like humans, and I didn't have a good impression of youkai, but then I met gentle people, and I met a lot of people and experienced a lot of things, so I learned what gentleness is, and there are a lot of people I care about, and now I love all living beings." I don't want to run away from it, there are some things I should face, and I should take on the responsibilities that belong to me. Maybe only after experiencing some things will I understand these truths, I can understand a little bit of the reason why my father let me experience alone, only when I have someone I want to protect will I become strong, I also want to become as gentle and powerful as my father and mother, like the sun shining down on all beings. ”

There was some disgust in Hinoeda's tone, but she didn't have a hint of disgust, "As a man, he actually said such things. ”

The cat teacher also said, "Really. ”

"You take care of me. Natsume was annoyed.

Before the cat teacher could refute anything, the cat teacher's size began to shrink again, and it became the size of a fist lying on the ground. ”

"Really, really," Hinoeda said, smoking the tobacco from her undeparting cigarette stick, "I'll give you a Shikigami to protect you this time." ”

"Shikigami?Youkai can still drive Shikigami ?Isn't it the Onmyoji and Demon Slayer who have spiritual powers?" Natsume asked in surprise.

"Those humans are not all descendants of monsters and humans, it's just that those hypocritical humans are just a disguise of the demonic power in their bodies, just a bodyguard who can drive away shadows, why do you ask so much? There are some things you still don't know, come, I'll teach you how to summon." Hinoeda pulled out a brown scroll from the chest of the kimono, "It's very physical, do you want to do it? With your physical strength, you only have one chance, you may summon a powerful guy, or it may be a useless thing." ”
