At night, the lights are dim.

Gu Bird and Inugami walked side by side on the streets of Scarborough Town, a slight cool breeze blowing on their bodies, dispelling away all the fatigue and heat of the day.

"The boy kept looking at us as we left, his eyes never leaving, and he seemed to have a hint of surprise."

Gu Xuaniao walked slowly, and when he spoke, his tone was also very gentle.

Summer nights are very comfortable, especially in such a lively town with people around...... Accompanied.

"Gu Yu Bird, you are very observant."

Inugami said.

"The same goes for you."

Gu Xuniao said lightly, but a slightly sweet smile appeared on his face, which was involuntary, from the heart, naturally, not an expression made by himself.

The moon was like jade, cold and cold, exuding a hint of chill.

The black sky, scattered stars, dotted among them, is like a simple picture.

Neither Gushu nor Inugami are the kind of monsters who like to talk very much.

After saying Xia Mu's matter, the two of them just walked silently, keeping their eyes on the surrounding situation.

Soon, a stone plaque appeared on the side of the road.

There are two words written on it.

- West Street.

It's a street sign, written on a stone, as a sign of entering a place, and it's a method that many places like to use.

Outside of a street sign, the scene in front of him did not change.

There were not many pedestrians on the road, only some old people scavenging and drunks walking crookedly and saying inaudible words in their mouths.

West Street is the main street used for trading in the small town of Scarborough.

There are hardly any entertainment venues.

At night, the merchants go to have fun, so the West Street becomes deserted, but as soon as the sun rises the next day, the West Street becomes a completely different scene.

"It's so lonely."

Gu Xuanniao's gaze swept the surrounding streets, and then whispered.

"Well, it's completely different from daytime."

Inugami followed.

The two of them quickly finished West Street, and then went to another street, that is, Chunyu Street.

……

Spring Rain Street.

"What, that boy, actually fell asleep in it......"

Jiaotu said with a look of disbelief.

The red ambiguous light shone on Jiaotu's face from the small hole that Jiaotu poked, making Jiaotu's face look a little strange.

Before, through the papier-mâché window, I clearly saw a woman with a graceful figure, and Jiaotu's words made the clam spirit a little unconvinced, after all, the clam spirit knew what kind of creature a woman was.

Wonderful, gentle.

"Jiaotu, let me see."

The clam spirit leaned over, and in the small room, there was only a bed and a shelf for clothes, which looked very simple.

But that dim red light filled the whole room with a strange thing, as if this simple room had many, many things, and these things were exactly what the people who went in wanted.

A slender woman with light makeup leans against the wall, bored playing with her mobile phone. On that bed, Xia Mu was lying upright, sleeping very comfortably, and ...... Really fell asleep.

"What a strange human being."

The clam spirit muttered.

The touch of the young, immature girl's body before, the mussel spirit can still be clearly recalled, although it has only happened a long time, but there is a relatively long feeling.

"Looks like I'm tired."

Jiaotu said.

These days, Xia Mu has been doing the work of registering the goods for those merchants in Fusang, and sometimes, even at night, there will be some ships arriving in Scarborough Town, and the goods put down on those ships are also very secretive.

Those goods were personally carried down by the burly Fuso merchant.

Xia Mu, on the other hand, would be called in the middle of the night to record the weight and size of the boxes containing the goods.

As for what those goods were, Xia Mu was sometimes curious.

However, Xia Mu never asked them, nor did he try to peek at those goods, so those merchants were still more at ease with Xia Mu.

I didn't sleep well at night, and I had to get up very early during the day every day, which was why Xia Mu slept in such a place.

"Actually, I think this human seems to be quite reliable."

Beng Jing looked at Xia Mu, who was sleeping quietly in the room, and said slowly.

"Mussel Spirit, haven't you always said that humans and monsters can't be friends? And the Onmyoji will also kill youkai. Why...... Would you say that now? ”

Jiaotu looked at the mussel essence and asked suspiciously.

In fact, Jiaotu didn't know much about humans, and in the past, Jiaotu was just a weird little fish that was not accepted by other fish.

Exposure to human beings is scarce and scarce.

Later, because he has been living in the shell of the clam essence, Jiaotu slowly sucked the aura of the clam essence and became a monster.

But, even so.

It's only the second time I've come to the human world, so what kind of human beings are, Jiaotu is really ignorant.

"I don't know why I feel that way, maybe...... It's because he saved me. ”

Mussel Jing said.

Jiao Tu didn't speak again, and the two of them just stood quietly by the window, looking at Xia Mu in the room.

"It's ...... time"

The woman who was leaning against the wall and playing with her mobile phone shook Xia Mu and said to him.

Xia Mu woke up, although he was still a little sleepy, but he barely woke up: "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome, after all...... You're paid. Also, is there really nothing you need to do? ”

The woman looked at Xia Mu and asked him.

"No need."

After Xia Mu finished speaking, he left the room, and in the room, only the woman with the graceful figure remained.

But Xia Mu went out not long ago.

A fat man walked in, and the shadows reflected in the window, one slender and the other obese, gradually blended together......

"Gu Xuaniao, look at that boy, is it the one you met during the day?"

The dog god pointed to the back of a person and said to Gu Yuniao.

Gu Xuniao looked over, the back was indeed very familiar, and the clothes he was wearing were also very familiar: "Well, it's him." ”

A man was hugging Xia Mu's shoulders at the moment, talking about his previous experience, and his emotions were a little high.

However, Xia Mu didn't seem to be listening at all.

"Hey, Xia Mu, are you listening?"

The man saw Xia Mu walking with his head down, and said dissatisfiedly.

"Well, I'm listening."

Xia Mu replied.

Behind the two of them, there was also a girl in a blue kimono and a girl in shabby clothes, who seemed to be following Xia Mu.

"Those two...... Shouldn't it be human, right? ”

Gu Xue looked at the dog god and asked him.

Youkai will have a special feeling when they encounter youkai, but this is not the kind that can be directly determined.

"Well, there is a smell of seawater on their bodies, salty and fishy, it may be an animal in the sea, a monster that has been cultivated."

Inugami replied.

The subtle smell that spreads in the air, and there is no way to escape the sensitive nose of the dog god, and there is a difference between the smell of monsters and humans.

As long as you don't deliberately use something like incense that has the original smell, you can smell it.

encountered a monster, which made Gu Bird and Inugami can't help but get serious.

"Let's follow."

Gu Xuanniao said softly.

"Hmm."

Inugami just nodded, and no sound occurred.

……

Xia Mu and the man returned to a warehouse together, this was where they slept, and the bed was a shabby iron bed that I didn't know where to get it.

It's the kind of bunk bed, and it's placed against a damp wall that has shed its skin.

Xia Mu slept on top of the bed, and the man slept on the lower bunk, Xia Mu pasted some anime pictures on the wall to prevent those wall skins from falling on the bed.

Chika Fujiwara, Hinata Hinata, and Ren, Phantom, and Wind in "Chaos Samurai".

"Xia Mu, today is the first time you've been to that kind of place, right?"

The man asked.

"Go to sleep."

Xia Mu replied.

The two little monsters who were following Xia Mu had already come to the window of the warehouse where Xia Mu was sleeping at this time.

And the Gushu bird and the dog god watched them from afar.

This observation went on for a long time.

Xia Mu is a person who pays attention to them, and now there are still two monsters following Xia Mu, so it is worth spending some time on Xia Mu's body no matter what.

You might find out something about youkai.

Chen Beibei has a snow girl by his side to protect him, and there is almost no way for humans to threaten him, and there are only ghosts and monsters that can threaten Chen Beibei.

So, all Gu Tori and Inugami did was to find out the monsters around here.

In this way, you can stay in this place with peace of mind.

"That boy is probably not an ordinary human being."

Gu Huoniao said.

"Well, though, the smell of his body was ordinary, not stained with blood, nor with some other filthy smell. Seems to be just a normal human being, but ...... This kind of normality has been somewhat excessive. Therefore, it will always make people feel that he is not an ordinary human being. ”

Inugami replied.

Xia Mu's body is a kind of warmth, like the smell of a clean quilt after the sun, just smelling such a smell, there will be a very comfortable and pleasant feeling.

Night.

The deeper.

The stars and moon in the sky still silently illuminate the world, and it looks like there will be a sense of perseverance, but it is also beautiful.

"Someone is coming......"

Inugami suddenly reminded in a very small voice.

The Gushu bird in a state of vigilance can not detect the range as far as the dog god, after all, the dog god's sense of smell is more sensitive.

After the reminder of the dog god.

Through his own hearing, he barely heard the sound of footsteps in the distance, a very small sound.

But because he stepped on a small dead branch.

Therefore, the bird can judge the location of the person coming and the distance from itself from the sound.

The sound is getting closer.

The Fuso people have a special fragrance on their bodies, which is difficult to describe, and it is a fragrance that is relatively close to that of wooden materials.

It is when the dog god smells this faint woody fragrance that he will know that someone is coming.

Soon, those people appeared in the sight of Gu Tori and Inu God, two men and one woman, one of whom was very tall and looked powerful, and if there was a fight, he was probably the only one with a slight fighting ability.

But even so, Gu Tori and Inu God still didn't care about them at all.

After all, no matter what, ordinary humans are not a threat at all in front of monsters of the level of Gushu Bird and Inujin.

Soon there was the sound of turning over in the warehouse, then getting dressed and getting out of bed.

"Squeak......

The door opened, Xia Mu walked out of the warehouse, Xia Mu's roommate was still asleep at this time, and he had no intention of waking up at all.

"Do you have a job again?"

Xia Mu rubbed his eyes and asked.

In the woman's room before, Xia Mu had slept for a while, and now her mental state was still quite good, and Xia Mu did not show the slightest displeasure because she was woken up.

"Hmm."

The shorter man replied.

Xia Mu didn't continue to ask them, just quietly followed behind them, after all, it was not the first time that he had gone out to work in the middle of the night.

These merchants of Fusang are still very richly paid.

Therefore, such a request is completely within the acceptable range of Xia Mu.

Several people came to the beach together, and the two little monsters who followed Xia Mu followed them all the time, and it seemed that they didn't plan to sleep this night.

"Let's go along."

Inugami said.

"Hmm."

Gu Huoniao replied.

Going out in the middle of the night to do something, no matter what you do, is worth seeing.

The wind was strong on the seaside, with a fishy smell.

At this moment, in the middle of the sea, a ship is slowly moving forward, and the lights on the ship are very faint in the dark night.

"It's coming soon, just wait a minute."

The merchant of Fuso said.

Xia Mu took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the morning: "Hmm." ”

Take the money, then do what you have to do.

As for some things that shouldn't be asked, Xia Mu won't ask, he just needs to do things well, and then take the money and return to the old fisherman's side, which is enough.

The ship was getting closer and closer, and finally came to shore.

The burly Fuso man got on the boat first and moved out the boxes one by one, all of them covered with a thick black cloth just like the previous ones.

It seems to be to prevent people from seeing what is inside, of course, it is also possible that the goods inside cannot be directly irradiated by the sun, and the black cloth is only to isolate the sun's rays.

There were a lot of boxes on the ship, and when moving to a relatively large box, the Fuso man accidentally tripped on the splint, and the box fell to the ground: "Ah......hhhhhhhh

There was a soft cry from the box......

There are no holidays this week, emmmmm...... I just found out that today is actually Sunday......
