Five or six days have passed since that night.

During this period, Oshino called again and asked Li Nian to go over to meet him there, saying that there were some things to be delivered.

The meeting place is set in the abandoned building where they first met with the Quillokin Kada trio.

Almost at the same time, in the same place, I saw the uncle sitting on the stacked desk in the same posture.

He was still dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, and clogs, flirtatious and sloppy, smiling at Li Nianhahaha, who walked into the room. Talking about the spirit is really good, is something good happening, and other jokes.

Ignoring it, Li Nian, who glanced at the room, did not see the figures of the three of Quillokinkada, but found a young body curled up in the shadows.

Long golden hair and a porcelain doll-like delicate face.

These two qualities coexist, and the first thing that comes to mind is the ghost, and the moment I associate this with that name, I wonder if I'm wrong.

When he showed a surprised expression, he seemed to see through the surprised Oshino in his heart and answered him.

"It's you who said that no matter how much you are stripped of, no matter how much you are sealed, you will treat her as that woman, and see her as a potential threat, so explain it as you like, as you can see, it is Heartunderblade, although in my opinion it is just a remnant, this state should not inherit the name.

It was confirmed from Oshino's mouth that it was confirmed that the young girl was Heartunderblade himself, and Li Nian didn't expect that after being weakened by Oshino's method, it would become like this.

Her breath had become quite faint, and if she hadn't confirmed it by sight, she would hardly have felt her presence - she was so weak that she didn't feel the slightest threat, and for Li Nian, it was not much more difficult to kill her now than to pinch an ant to death.

When Li Nian walked in, she didn't raise her head, burying her head in her knees.

There was no life or vitality at all, and although he was alive, he seemed to be dead, and this figure was connected with the desperate look he saw that day, and it seemed to be taken for granted.

“…… That's right. ”

Li Nian could understand her feelings.

Being deprived of name, power, honor, and the past, losing the ability to make one's own decisions, and becoming a vassal who could not survive without the blood of Araragiri, is really a great insult to this guy who stood at the apex of inhumanity in the past.

The so-called punishment of death is still unbearable.

But that was what Ara Liangmu prayed for, and Li Nian also made the decision to let it go, and he would not say anything here, let alone pity her.

“…… But what about Araragiri himself? ”

"He comes over every afternoon."

"Shouldn't you take this guy with you?"

"How can it be so simple to reconcile, for Brother Araryogi, it will take a while more hard work. I had to take care of it before. ”

“……”

It's really impossible to forgive so easily.

However, now that the master-servant relationship between Ara Ryagi and Heartunderblade has been reversed, and the latter has no power to resist the former, Li Nian feels that it stands to reason that even if it is implemented by coercive means, it must be taken care of by Araung Timber himself.

opened his mouth.

“…… Forget it. ”

This proposal was not uttered.

The relationship between the two is complicated, and it is probably not his turn to add more beaks.

Retracting his gaze from Heartunderblade, he looked back at Oshino.

"You said you had something to deliver."

"First of all, the church, on its part, has withdrawn its wanted Heartunderblade and wants to tell you this."

“……”

"It's to be expected, Heartunderblade has become like this, and they have no reason to chase it anymore, because that's the system on their side."

"Even if this guy is still a potential threat?"

"This level is acceptable, Heartunderblade is an undead species, ideally it can be sealed."

"That's ......"

"Another reason is that it's your choice, not to kill the Heartunderblade, but to seal it away, and you, as the local god, made this judgment. At the same time, you also said that you took the responsibility of taking care of the seal, that is, monitoring the Araragi calendar as the seal itself, and in this case, the church would not pursue it to the end - this was the judgment of Chilo Kinkada, who withdrew the wanted notice within the church with the authority of the cardinal. ”

“…… Dramanz Luki seemed to have the appearance of bringing the words to him. ”

"That's it, this incident is completely over, and the commission to you can be regarded as fulfilled."

Li Nian raised his eyebrows.

"Do you remember that you made the commission yourself?"

"I remember to pay you."

“…… Yes? ”

"It's a commission for you, and of course you have to pay you when you complete it, right? Equivalent exchange is the principle. ”

Li Nian frowned.

"I don't need to, this is a favor to repay you."

"From the moment you agree to this commission, this favor has been repaid, the reward is another matter, it still has to be given, if you still can't accept it, it should be regarded as my uncle's compensation for my willful and reckless actions."

"This ......"

"Well, after all, there are 10 million."

Oshino smirked.

"It's to give you all the 10 million that Araryogi owes."

Li Nian's smacking tongue

“…… Think about it, that kid has no ability to repay at all, what a meaningless empty check, you didn't plan to give it in the first place, right? ”

"Oh, uncle, I'm also a person with clean sleeves, you see me like this, the only way to give a ransom is through this way."

"It's just ...... if you throw me the trouble"

In this way, Ara Ryogi Li owed Oshino 10 million and transferred it to Li Nian's head.

"Now, I'm afraid that Brother Araragi won't be able to raise his head in front of you for the rest of his life."

"I don't think he's taking it seriously."

"He's a serious character, even if it's a blank check, he will probably cash in gradually."

"It sounds like I want this high school student to hand over all my pocket money to me, where did I come from? Alas......"

Li Nian sighed impatiently.

Just thinking about it makes me feel super troublesome, and I just feel troubled.

"Well, when Ara Liangmu-kun joins the work, it won't be at the level of pocket money, so accept it with this long-term idea."

"Accept a fart."

And then is it really going to be called Mr. Debt Collector? It really feels like the kid named Hanekawa and Ara Ryagi will be a couple.

Ten years later, as a creditor of 10 million, the couple looked at it with a complaining look - woo wow...... The picture is so strong.

Li Nian kneaded his brows and muttered.

"Well, it's okay, this kid is a person who likes to mess around, and I have one more excuse to suppress him."

"I think so too, the moment I made the decision to live with the guy over there, Brother Araragi will be inseparable from the world here, and it will cause you all kinds of trouble in the future."

"You're a good shopkeeper."

"It's what you do."

"I know...... said that he wanted to take good care of this guy, so naturally he wouldn't leave it alone. ”

"That's all I have to say, and there's only one last thing to add."

"What?"

"In addition to the Araragi calendar, please also pay attention to the squad leader."

“……”

"In a sense, it's a more unstable type than the Araragi calendar, you know?"

"Ah, I understand."

The girl was anomalous.

"That's it."

Oshino, who had already explained clearly, continued.

"So after I left, I asked you to take care of all kinds of things."

"Are you leaving?"

"Of course, right?"

"In such a hurry?"

"No, no, of course I'll stay a little longer, probably until the two of them reconcile, and I'll take good care of the residue of Heartunderblade until then."

Oshino said over and over again, looking at the young girl cowering in the corner.

Li Nian also looked over and said in a low voice.

"That's not optimistic, you may not be able to leave for the rest of your life."

"No, no, no, don't think so, you have to make a decision in this situation, huh...... I mean the young lady over there. ”

Oshino said slowly, meaningfully.

"After all, there is a limit to the awkwardness of children and their families."

The young girl did not react to this.

That's why it's not optimistic.

Oshino smiled helplessly at Li Nian.

"That being said, I'm a little unsure, and it's not impossible for what you're saying to happen."

"Don't meddle too much in the affairs of the Araragi calendar."

"I know that after all, people can only save themselves...... That's all I have to say, thank you for your trip. ”

"I have a deep understanding of how difficult the road ahead is, so I'm leaving."

After Oshino finished explaining, Li Nian had no reason to stay any longer, and turned around to leave.

Oshino squinted at his back and said suddenly.

"Do you have anything else to say to the scum over there?"

Li Nian replied without replying.

"It's useless to say it now."

It's impossible to borrow it from Heartunderblade right now.

He left Oshino, and nothing else happened after that.

Ending in that half-hung form, the matter of Heartunderblade's retreat can be regarded as an end, and Oshino said that the commission is completed, which also means that Li Nian's work at hand has also been completed, and of course he is idle.

Lumia seemed to feel guilty for not stopping Yakumo Zi that night, and after Li Nian affirmed that this matter had nothing to do with her, he asked her if she resented the fact that she had cut Yakumo Zi, and was said with a wry smile that it was her own doing, and only thanked Li Nian for sparing her life, Li Nian also knew that she was not lying, and a few more words would appease her.

When asked again if she was aware of Si Boda, she looked at Li Nian blankly, with an expression that she didn't know what he was talking about, obviously she didn't notice that Si Boda was also pointing a gun at her back that night, and Li Nian didn't say anything more.

Si Boda also didn't find Li Nian to ask anything after that, he didn't ask, Li Nian didn't bother to explain, he walked on the road and greeted the brother and sister, as if nothing had happened to each other, and greeted each other as usual.

It is worth mentioning that Huang Quan and Kagura seem to have been suddenly summoned by their own family and went back to their hometown, and they wanted to ask about Huang Quan's affairs and didn't know if she had any news for a while.

Li Shunsheng's family has not moved for a long time, the head of the family himself is a killer, the girl is a collaborator, obviously a combination of dirty work, it is not surprising when it disappears, I am afraid this is only a temporary foothold, maybe it will not be seen again in the future.

The remaining two neighbors came and went.

Therefore, I met the parents of the Biqi Gu family, they sent back sustenances, saying that they wanted to know Li Nian's "uncle", looking at Li Nian with vague pity, it seems that Biqi Gu Komachi should say Li Nian's "parents died", Li Nian said that his uncle would not come back for a long time on a business trip, and the pity in these two eyes was even deeper, and he sincerely said that you are really pitiful for this child, and you can find them if you have any difficulties.

I've also met Emiya Shirou and Illya's parents, and it's true that as Emiya Shirou said, his father is Japanese, his mother is a foreigner, one looks like a gentle uncle, and the other is a gentle beauty with white hair.

It looks like an ordinary family with a happy heart.

But there is a problem with these two, although they are very vaguely hidden, but at close range, Li Nian still noticed the faint "spiritual wave" on these two people, and they are obviously also from this world.

I thought it would be an ordinary family......

Li Nian was somewhat disappointed by this.

However, the other party does not seem to have discovered his identity.

Then it doesn't matter if you get along with each other on a daily basis, and it doesn't matter if you think about it this way.

Life just calmed down.

Sleep until you wake up naturally every day, daily grocery shopping, cooking, exercise, and in-depth study of power, needless to say, watch TV at home, surf the Internet, occasionally go out for a walk, add a variety of furniture, buy a variety of consoles and related games, and buy a lot of books to read, still have something to do, and life is tight and fulfilling for a while.

I don't realize I've forgotten something.

Until one morning, the phone rang.

Li Nian answered the phone.

"Who?"

"Hello, I'm the head teacher of Group F of the 2nd year of the private Sobu High School, Shizune Hiratsuka."
