50, Yakumozhuang's family affairs

After confirming that the voice heard by the young dragon Xiao Mo was haunted-

Well, no more. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Dilapidated old houses, rental houses, eerie torii gates, and ghosts all combine to make Yakumoso a typical Japanese horror movie, but this world is different.

Magicians, superpowers, alchemists, onmyoji—even in a world where the existence of a traverser is rotten, cricket ghosts are really nothing.

Besides, before Xia Qiudong and Alice moved in, there were already people living here in Yakumo Village for a while, and if there was a real situation, something would have happened a long time ago.

Anyway, Xia Qiudong has made up his mind, and when that ghost comes out one day, if it's a harmless cute girl, he will keep it as a mascot, if it's an evil spirit......

Just get rid of it.

It doesn't cost much to go to the street to find a place like the House of Everything, and ask the intermediary to hire an onmyoji to remove the spirit.

In short, although this world is full of all kinds of strange and mysterious powers, as long as you don't provoke some things that you shouldn't touch, even if you are a traverser who strays into another world, you can get used to the rhythm of this world in a short time.

"Today's prayer is as peaceful as ever."

"Peace as always, Heavenly prayer today."

"Don't deliberately repeat what I said in an inverted sentence, and besides, Miss Lao, you take care of your pet, I don't want to wake up and this home will be burned down."

In short, although there was a little unexpected episode, after recovering the stinky young dragon Xiao Mo, the rice was almost cooked.

“...... Porridge? Alice looked at the freshly baked rice in the rice cooker and said in a suspicious tone.

"It's just that there is a little more water, listening to your words, Miss, you know that you have lived a life of clothes to reach out and eat to open your mouth before this...... Tsk, this rice cooker, it feels like a bargain...... Second-hand? ”

"A bargain? Secondhand? Can you see this? Mr. Driver. ”

"It's just that there's something like that, uh."

Xia Qiudong subconsciously wanted to talk about his experience of using electrical appliances illegally in the university dormitory, but fortunately, he reacted in time and stopped the car.

Xia Qiudong changed his words: "Having said that, your habit of inverting sentences is still better to change, not a familiar person, you can't understand what you said just now, okay?" ”

"You have to take care of it."

“...... Forget it, it's good if you're happy. ”

There is nothing to say about the next thing, Xia Qiudong used ordinary methods to fry an ordinary egg fried rice, and the two of them had an ordinary lunch.

Neither glows nor is it drugged. (Note 1)

"It feels so light, this taste."

“...... Sorry, I forgot to put salt. Xia Qiudong was a little embarrassed when he said this.

Put it back in the pot, add salt and fry it again, and then the two of them just had this ordinary lunch, watching the animation plot of the stupid hair king dying on TV and being injured by two spearmen with two brushes, and time passed like this. (Note 2)

After Meals –

Alice seems to have an animation to chase, but ......

[I'm sorry, at the request of the relevant authorities, "Tokyo Meow" was suspended this week] Such a text appeared on TV.

"Why!? I finally came to the extreme east, alas! I thought I could see a live stream without delay! ”

Alice was dissatisfied, but she had no choice but to give up.

"That kind of thing, we can buy comics and read them when we go out at night, and before that, Miss, please listen to me, OK?"

Although there were such and such episodes, Xia Qiudong finally found time to tell Alice the most important part of her future life.

"I was original、Well, you can understand that you can be an orphan, for some reason, I got the help of the Oda family-eldest lady, and she gave me this Yakumoso, but as a condition, I have to take care of you."

"Take care of me...... How much do you know about me? ”

- [Choice Divergence] Appears -

[1, tell her the whole truth]

[2. According to the plan, lie]

——Please select——

Slow World.

Xia Qiudong just looked at the choice differences, and without thinking too much, he directly chose the second item.

The world of Tardiness ends.

Xia Qiudong said: "I don't know much about you, it's basically a nobleman in distress, entrusted by his parents to his former friends to take care of - like this, it's like a plot like a novel." ”

“......”

Alice didn't speak, but Xia Qiudong knew that she must be refuting Xia Qiudong's statement in her heart, and at the same time realized that the young man named Chun Xia Qiudong in front of her, although he was entrusted with the order to take care of himself, did not know the further truth.

This is also the misunderstanding that Xia Qiudong and the Oda family behind Xia Qiudong hope girls make.

(What kind of secret is it that makes the Oda family want to protect her like this...... ）

Although Xia Qiudong thought so in his heart, the lies prepared according to the plan in his mouth did not stop.

"In short, I will protect you, don't look at me as only nine years old, but in terms of strength, I am a 'second-stage junior professional', what about you?"

“...... Stage 1 Advanced. ”

"Well, uh...... Anyway, let's get along, after all, this is the job entrusted to me by Miss Shinna, and then it's about the cost of our living expenses in the future. ”

“...... Expenses? Alice was stunned.

Even if she didn't say it, Xia Qiudong could guess that in Alice's opinion, the living expenses of herself and others should be provided by the Oda family.

Although Xia Qiudong will indeed receive secret assistance from the Oda family, he still has to follow the plan at this time and continue to lie.

"Miss, you are now incognito, although it is far away from the Far East Continent in Zhongzhou, the Oda family is not without opponents here, and frequent contact may make people suspicious, in case it is discovered by your enemy...... I don't think you want to see this kind of troublesome thing, right? ”

"My enemies were killed that day...... Forget it, what you say makes sense, and then what? ”

"Although I care a lot about the information in your words, as long as you don't want to say, I won't ask, it's good for you and me."

"Looks like a man with a story, you."

"Each other, but the past is over, and the next thing is the focus of our lives in the future."

Xia Qiudong tapped on the table with his right index finger, signaling that he was going to get to the point.

"To put it simply, because the Oda family is inconvenient to have too much contact with us, they just arranged a new identity for us, that is, a time-traveler who strayed into this world."

Alice was stunned.

"Traverser? We? ”

"Yes, there are some things that happened in between, but the Oda family has sorted them out for us, and this 'Yakumoso' has also been successfully assigned to our name, originally, we should have reported to the professional elementary school on the first day of school, that is, a week later, and met there, but now because of your willfulness, it has been advanced......

Hawkers,Anyway,To put it simply,In addition to living together in the future,Living expenses or something,All by collecting the rent of this 'Yakumoso' residents to maintain.,I've read the bill.,The current income and expenditure.,Basically, it's just that we can only pay for tuition and miscellaneous fees in the future.。 ”

"So what?" Alice still didn't seem to understand.

Xia Qiudong thought about it and decided to do what he liked, giving a vivid example.

"Let's put it this way, although Yakumo Village is nominally owned by us, but I think that you don't know the life of the common people, in order to prevent you from spending money extravagantly and causing a financial crisis, so the bank card will be handed over to me for safekeeping, ah yes, you don't want to steal it, because only I know the password."

“...... Cut. ”

"Well, in short, there is still pocket money, but there are not many of them at the moment, and it seems basically impossible to buy comics or peripherals or something."

"W-What?! What did you say?! Just! ”

"It's just a comic, don't show that look like you've heard that the end of the world is coming! Although it is not enough now, as long as we work hard and attract more guests to come and stay, we will have more money on hand, and your pocket money will naturally rise, understand? ”

"Is anyone really going to come to a place like this......

Alice is skeptical of Xia Qiudong's claims.

"Why don't we find someone to blow up the 'ghost domain' next door first?"

"It's the private property of the government, and it's illegal to blast or something. Don't worry, I've already thought about it, and I'll start recruiting new guests in a few days, but before that......"

Xia Qiudong shoved the broom into Alice's hand.

"Let's go and tidy up our respective rooms first, and as a reward, go out for a good meal tonight, and help you buy a change of clothes—you won't be unable to do this, Miss?"

Xia Qiudong just casually provoked the move, but Alice unexpectedly ignited her fighting spirit.

"Just cleaning! Don't underestimate me! I can do it too! ”

“...... It's better to change your inexplicable grammatical habits. ”
