37 Chapter 37

"Wow, oh no! It's almost ten o'clock! It's too late! Why didn't you wake me up, Ernie sauce! When the hedgehog's screams were heard upstairs, Yu Abeno was cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

He looked at the man running down from the stairs and said, "I called you, and it turned out that you said it yourself for another five minutes." ”

As a result, "another five minutes", "five minutes" overslept.

The hazy memory began to revive, and the hedgehog's face turned red all of a sudden, "Hmm, yes, I'm sorry, I slept last night, I slept a little late......"

"You crammed last night, didn't you?" In front of You, the hedgehog has no secrets.

"Oh, hey, you know." The embarrassment of being caught made the hedgehog scratch the back of her head embarrassedly, and she explained, "I wanted to make a good impression on Mr. Kinomoto." ”

"Alright, alright. Let's come over for dinner first, your teacher is coming. ”

"Hmm!" The hedgehog was excited, and immediately sat down on the chair, and the chopsticks were just about to put the browned delicious fried egg in her mouth, when she suddenly remembered something, and said vaguely: "Oh, oh, you want to do it!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You swallow the rice. ”

The hedgehog obediently swallowed the rice under You's gaze, drank another glass of water, and then said, "Ernie sauce, the little demon beast is still sleeping, and I haven't eaten breakfast yet." What if he accidentally gets seen by Mr. Kinomoto in a moment? It hurts! ”

"Calm me down." You withdrew her hand to knock on the hedgehog's head, looked at her who was messing around before anyone came, and said, "I have prepared the little monster's meal." And the one called Kinomoto.,After a while, he came and let the little monster stay in the room.,Wait until he's gone and then go downstairs? ”

"yes, hey, hey." The hedgehog touched the knocked head and smirked a few times, finished his breakfast in a few bites, and brought the little monster's breakfast upstairs.

The hedgehog returned to the room and put down the breakfast, lay on the side of the bed and said to the little demon beast who was still hazy and in a state of sleep, and said: "I'm sorry little demon beast, Mr. Kinomoto, who is going to teach me today, is coming, I have wronged you to stay in the room, and I will give you the pudding made of Ernie sauce." ”

Hearing the word pudding, the little demon beast who was still lying on the bed completely opened his eyes and woke up, he pouted and said, "Hmph, a pudding wants to buy me." ”

The hedgehog thought about it for a while, and immediately said, "Is it okay to make hamburger meat for Ernie sauce dinner?" ”

"Really?" The little demon beast looked at the person who kept nodding suspiciously, he turned his back to the hedgehog, and said indifferently: "Hamburger meat is good for hamburger meat...... It seems that he is not interested at all.

The hedgehog tugged at the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, thinking that he would better talk to Yu for a while, let's make miso soup or something at night. Before she packed up her things, she gently patted the head of the little demon beast shrunk in the quilt and said, "Then you have to be obedient." After saying that, he packed up the books he needed and went downstairs with a lot of things.

The door closed, and the little demon beast left on the bed completely got into the quilt, and the arched quilt squirmed a few times and was suddenly lifted.

"Hooray, burger meat at night." The little demon beast cheered in a low voice, and suddenly jumped to the ground and pounced on breakfast.

And downstairs.

The long-awaited Mr. Kinomoto is coming soon, and the hedgehog is not sitting or standing, guarding the textbook placed on the coffee table in the living room and circling around, and his head is constantly rehearsing what to do for a while. Why don't you listen to Mr. Kinomoto's lecture first?

The hedgehog, who couldn't grasp the doctrine and didn't know what to do, squatted down with his head in pain. Nagato, who was standing on the bird trellis, flipped his wings and looked at his distressed master with a helpless expression.

You, who had already finished cleaning the kitchen, came over with a snack, put the snack on the coffee table, saw the hedgehog's unproductive appearance, and said with a smile: "Tut-tut, I feel that you will hold the pen in the wrong posture for a while." ”

In the face of You's ridicule, the hedgehog rarely puffed out his cheeks and retorted: "I, I won't be like that!" ”

"Pretty little credibility."

"Hmm." The hedgehog didn't want to admit it at all, but what Yuu said still had a high incidence of her. Thinking about it this way, it seems to be even more annoying. And the doorbell of my wife's house rang at that moment.

"Ding-dong-"

Yu glanced at the hedgehog who had been excited, and the corners of his mouth curled up to open the door.

Momoya Kinomoto, who had promised to come to my wife's house to teach hedgehogs, was standing at the door, carrying a paper bag with a lot of old elementary school textbooks in it.

Yu who opened the door accidentally caught a glimpse of it, guessing that it must be the book used by the elementary school in front of him.

"Hello, who are you?"

Hearing Yuu's inquiry, Kinomoto Momoya deliberately recalled the door number he saw when he first entered the yard, and made sure that he was not mistaken, and said: "My name is Kinomoto Momoya, and I told my wife and aunt before that I would come to teach the little hedgehog to learn during the holidays." ”

Merit nodded, and in a friendly way, he stretched out his hand and introduced himself: "I am the cousin of the hedgehog, my wife, because the hedgehog's parents are busy with work, and now I live here as the guardian of the hedgehog." ”

"Hello."

When Kinomoto Momoya was welcomed into the door, the hedgehog was still holding his head and squatting in his living room.

Noticing that someone had entered the house, Nagato simply and rudely flew down the bird rack and pecked the hedgehog's head, saving her from being seen by the people who came in.

"Nagato hurts." The hedgehog covered the top of his pecked head, and when he looked up, he saw Yuwa Kinomoto Momoya walking into the living room, "...... Mo (bites the tongue). As soon as he wanted to open his mouth to call someone, he bit his tongue directly because of nervousness, and the bloody breath suddenly filled his mouth.

Seeing the hedgehog covering his mouth with tears in his eyes, Youfu, who smelled the faint sweet and greasy smell of blood, raised his forehead and said, "You can bite your tongue when you say something, you are also powerful." ”

"Hedgehog, can I call you that?" Kinomoto Momoya asked for the hedgehog's opinion, and when he saw her nodding in agreement, he put the paper bag on the ground casually, stepped forward and gently pinched the hedgehog's chin and raised it, and said softly, "Open your mouth and let me see your wounds." ”

The hedgehog hesitated, his eyes moving in the direction where Yu was standing.

Kinomoto Momoya didn't seem to notice the abnormality behind it, and continued, "Although the blood on the tongue is abundant, it will heal itself even if it is not treated, but if there is a lot of bleeding and severe pain, you need some medicine. ”

Seeing that the hedgehog was still a little hesitant, Kinomoto just wanted to make the question bigger, when he heard a very small voice coming.

"It's fine." The hedgehog let go of the hand covering her mouth, she stepped back, and Kinomoto Momoya naturally let go of the hand that was pinching the hedgehog's chin. The hedgehog, who had a sore tongue, stood up, went around the coffee table and pulled Yuu's sleeve, turned back to Kinomoto Momoya and bowed apologetically, and pulled the person to the bathroom.

Momoya Kinomoto, who turned around, noticed the side face of Yu, who had left.

The hedgehog pulled Yuu all the way into the bathroom, and as soon as he entered the door, he was choked by the person behind him, "Ou, Ernie sauce?" You, are you alright? ”

"Shut up, don't talk!" Yu roared, opening uncontrollably to reveal the fangs in his mouth.

Feeling the hot air spraying on her neck, the hedgehog shivered, and she asked in a cautious whisper, "Ernie-chan, are you hungry?" ”

Hearing the worried inquiry, Yuu, who was almost about to bite his mouth, woke up suddenly, he immediately closed his mouth and put away his fangs, was silent for a while, suppressed his hunger and replied in a low voice, "I haven't eaten since I left Akihabara." ”

The hedgehog recalls this short time together, and she saw Yuya eating human food several times. But thinking about it carefully, it seems that I have never asked Brother You whether he can get energy after eating human food. The hedgehog asked curiously, "Ernie sauce, isn't it okay for you to eat human food?" ”

Yu was now struggling with the idea of whether to bite a hedgehog or not, when he suddenly heard her ask, he gritted his teeth and said, "At most, it can only be regarded as drinking water." ”

Humans can survive on water for about 40 to 50 days, and this is done with very low caloric consumption.

But Abeno Yu has been consuming calories at a high intensity during this time, and during this time, he has only replenished water for humans. At this moment, there are only three words in the hedgehog's head: Longevityβ€”β€”!

It's a miracle that Abeno didn't eat her right now!

The hedgehog's nervous eyes rolled, and he suddenly thought of something, "There's pig blood in the refrigerator!" Before, because she was greedy and wanted to eat Mao Xuewang, she hugged You's thighs and bought him a piece of pig blood in the shopping street and put it in the refrigerator, and now she doesn't have to wait any longer.

"Ernie sauce, do you want to try eating pig's blood?" The hedgehog believes that with his excellent endurance, he will be able to ignore the Kinomoto Momoya in the living room and walk through the living room to the kitchen and gnaw on the pig's blood.

You, who didn't have to pick, let go of the hedgehog with a blue face, opened the door of the bathroom and went out, and before leaving, he turned around and said, "Remove the bloody smell from your mouth!" After saying that, he left with a fierce face.

The hedgehog breathed a sigh of relief, quickly washed the bloody smell from his mouth with water, and ran back to the living room.

Kinomoto Momoya sat on the sofa in the living room and nodded to the hedgehog who had returned. It just so happened that Yuu, who ran into the kitchen before, came out of the kitchen with tea with one hand and wiped the corners of his mouth with the other. He frowned and saw the person standing at the door of the living room in a daze, and shouted, "What are you in a daze, come and sit down for me to study." ”

"Oh!" The hedgehog shook and immediately ran to the small cushion next to the coffee table, and the obedient duck sat down.

Kinomoto Momoya opened the hedgehog's textbook, looking at the crooked notes recorded on it, although the words are ugly, but the words are arranged regularly between the words, and the records are detailed, it can be seen that the owner of the book is really studying seriously.

"I've been a little curious." After reading the progress of the hedgehog in general, Kinomoto closed the textbook and asked seriously, "Has the little hedgehog thought about going to that junior high school?" ”

Without hesitation, the hedgehog replied, "And in full bloom." ”

"Why?"

Looking at Mr. Kinomoto, who seemed to be curious, Hedgehog replied as a matter of course, "It's close to home." ”

"That's a real reason." When Kinomoto Momoya was saying this, the hedgehog noticed that the corners of his mouth seemed to twitch a little?

"Although, although Obsidian is also close to home, Dad said that the school is a bit messy. So, I, I chose the one with the better discipline and the shengzhong. Although the hedgehog said this, in fact, she only wanted to go and bloom because the lark was stationed and in full bloom. Even if the lark is about to graduate, she feels that only there is the safest!

"One more ......" The hedgehog lowered his head a little embarrassed and whispered, "The suit and school uniform are cool." ”

The living room of my wife's house fell silent for a moment.

The hedgehog feels super embarrassed, there are a few people in the world who will choose a school based on safety and school uniforms like her.

"Ahem, the requirements for the middle school are not very high, the exam is just a formality, as long as the grades are passable and there is no bad record, you can be enrolled." Kinomoto's words soothed the hedgehog who was afraid of falling off the list. However, his next sentence made the hedgehog's eyes darken.

"However, if the grades are too poor, it will not work."

"Hmm." The hedgehog, whose average score was extremely poor, looked at the textbook like a book from heaven in pain, "Mr. Kinomoto, I, can I?" ”

"You have to have faith in yourself." Kinomoto Momoya took out a scroll that was casually folded and sandwiched into the book, shook it and spread it flat on the table, and said: "Look, you have almost a perfect score in the English test, in fact, you are not stupid, you just don't know how to read to do so badly, so in the next year, you have to recognize words first." ”

"Hmmm! I'll do my best! ”

With Kinomoto's encouragement, the hedgehog was suddenly full of confidence.

Although learning to read and write is a long thing, there is no reason why Hedgehog, who has learned more than 20 indigenous languages from my wife's mother, cannot learn Japanese.

The hedgehog's memory is quite good, and she can basically remember the words that Kinomoto Momoya has taught two or three times. Although the writing is still extremely ugly, and the use is still to be discussed, at least the meaning of the words on the paper can be understood, which is a big breakthrough for the hedgehog who has been suffering for several years.

Yuu, who had been staying aside to observe, asked aloud, "Isn't this something you can remember?" I wonder if you slept every day in school. ”

The hedgehog's face immediately turned red, his cheeks bulged, and he explained angrily: "I didn't have it, I transferred to the elementary school halfway, so I ...... The progress is different from everyone else. ”

When the hedgehog entered school, the teacher basically didn't teach her much literacy, and it was no wonder that she couldn't read Japanese. I guess even my wife and wife didn't expect this, and they thought that their baby daughter was not good with Japan.

In order to get out of this embarrassing situation of being ridiculed for not being able to read as soon as possible, the hedgehog gnawed on the storybook very seriously, and asked Momoya Kinomoto, who was helping her draw the key points, if she didn't understand. And Yuu, who has been yawning frequently after watching it for so long, also felt a little bored, so he randomly picked a story book at hand and read it.

Time passed in a hurry, and before I knew it, it was already afternoon.

"Gollum~."

The beautiful long voice made the three of them stunned, the hedgehog covered his stomach violently, lowered his head with a flushed face, and whispered: "I, I'm hungry......"

"Poof."

"Please, please don't laugh at Kinomoto-san!" The hedgehog is embarrassed and wants to dig a hole and hide.

Kinomoto Momoya turned his face away, covered his mouth with one hand, waved his hand apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't hold back for a while." ”

Hearing the voice, Abeno Yu, who was almost asleep with his eyes closed, opened his eyes suddenly, he seemed to be in a daze, and stared at the hedgehog and Momoya for a long time, before he gradually squinted his eyes lazily, looked at the watch hanging in the living room and yawned, and said, "Hmm, is it already so late?" ”

The hedgehog touched his little belly, looked at Yu pitifully and said, "Ernie sauce, you overslept." ”

"Indeed." Yu grabbed his hair and stood up and walked to the kitchen, stopped halfway through, turned around and asked, "Is there anything Kinomoto-kun doesn't eat?" ”

"Huh? Ah, I'm not ......."

You didn't wait for Momoya to finish speaking, so he interrupted: "Originally, it was rude for us to turn lunch into dinner, but you taught the hedgehog to be tired for another day, so I'll send you back after eating and resting." ”

"Mr. Kinomoto's Oni-chan is very good, you'll stay and eat it together, right?" The hedgehog looked at the people around him expectantly.

Seeing this, Kinomoto Momoya couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

"Hooray." The hedgehog cheered, picked up a few snacks on the table, and explained, "Mr. Kinomoto, I'll go upstairs and come down immediately." With that, he left the living room and ran back to his room.

As soon as the hedgehog returned to the room, he saw the little demon beast standing in the center of the room.

"Little monster, are you alright?"

The hedgehog's words were answered by the gurgling of hunger from the belly of the little demon beast.

The hedgehog, who was extremely ashamed in an instant, picked up the hungry little demon beast and said apologetically: "Yes, I'm sorry, it's all because I didn't notice it for a while, you're hungry, little demon beast." ”

"Hmm." The little demon beast who heard the call opened its eyes, looked at the hedgehog and drooled: "Little hedgehog, there are a lot of flashing things in front of my eyes, I don't know what it tastes like." ”

"The one you're seeing is a hallucination." The hedgehog looked at the exaggerated little demon beast speechlessly, stuffed the snacks he brought into his open mouth and said, "Come and eat this, this is the red bean cake that Ernie Sauce bought, I took several pieces." ”

Seeing that the little demon beast of food quickly solved the food, he licked the corners of his mouth, as if he was still unsatisfied.

"I'm sorry little monster, Mr. Kinomoto hasn't left yet, and you won't be able to go downstairs until later." The hedgehog calmed the little demon beast that had been holding back for a day, and went downstairs again.

While Yu was cooking, the hedgehog made a small roll under the supervision of Momoya Kinomoto, and when it was done, it was just enough to eat.

Mao Xuewang is gone, but the miso soup stock sent by his grandparents from the countryside is still there.

After the three of them had a beautiful meal, they washed the fruit and brought it up.

Momoya Kinomoto said to the hedgehog who was gnawing on the apple, "If the little hedgehog wants to go and go to the middle school, you can actually go and see it when they run a school festival." ”

Momoya's advice to the hedgehog as a person who has come over is simply amazing!

I didn't expect that I could be like this hedgehog and suddenly realized. At this time in previous years, she was very worried, and she didn't know what she was supposed to do at the school school festival.

"Hey, hey,Suddenly looking forward to this year's school festival。

I really couldn't stand the hedgehog's smirk, and sighed: "I'm sorry, this kid is stupid sometimes." With that, he tapped the hedgehog's skull and told her to be quiet and nibble on the apple.

Momoya didn't care about looking at the hedgehog with a happy face, like a little squirrel gnawing on an apple, got up and said, "It's late, I won't disturb your rest, take your leave first." ”

"Wait, I'll send you." Yu quickly took off his apron and went out with Momoya, and didn't go back to my wife's house until he was sent to the station to see him get on the train. 166 Reading Network
