Chapter 16: The Thorn Flower and Shi Shu

Await...... Maybe not easy; Harm...... But it's a breeze.

"Shi Shu, clean up tomorrow, remember to bring gloves." Shen You walked over with a standard sunny smile to greet Shi Shu.

"Ah, I know the squad leader." Shi Shu wants friends, that feeling of being noticed, but it's definitely not like this.

The surrounding girls were all bewildered by Shen You's gentle smile, and threw all kinds of meaningful glances here, this damn extremely grass charm.

Shi Shu wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, quickly cleaned up, said hello to Shen You, and slipped away in his surprised gaze.

"Shi Shu, wait for me."

It's Nan Yu.

"Ah, you didn't leave either." Shi Shu stopped and stood on the side of the road waiting for her to run over.

"Uh-huh, I'm talking to them about cleaning up tomorrow." Nan Yu, who ran over quickly, took a rough breath.

"That, Xiao Shu, where are you responsible tomorrow."

"Cleaning up the back wall of the school."

"Just right, let's get there too, let's go together."

"Okay..."

Friday mornings are always full of anticipation, and for some reason, it's also a day when you need to wake up early for class.

The school did not have classes today, so all the students who could work were arranged, and some places in the school that were not usually cleaned were cleaned up.

Led by the teacher, walk to the back wall of the school.

Shi Shu seemed to be here for the first time, and the delicacy in front of him was completely different from the pure education building at the front door.

Where the rows of osmanthus trees grow, some of the early-blooming flowers already exude their rich and unique fragrance at this time; On its outermost periphery is the tall magnolia, which is already losing its leaves this season, and the flower beds are also full of unknown flowers, like a secret garden.

However, it looks like it should be off the beaten track, and some of the bricks on the ground are covered with yellow weeds.

It's so beautiful here, why does it look like no one is coming?

Shi Shu, who was sighing, retracted his thoughts, it was time to clean up with the others.

Nan Yu, who said that he would clean up together, couldn't come today, and Shi Shu squatted on the ground alone to pull up the weeds that shouldn't grow in the middle of the road.

Why can't you pull it up? Shi Shu put the gloves on a little tighter.

A hand reached out.

"You?" Shi Shu saw this person who should not have appeared here, and sat down on the ground.

"Hehe, can't I come? I can't even pull up the grass. "It's still like that.

"Steamed buns!"

"Huh? Why, don't call me that here. ”

"Also, why do you want to become Nanyu? It looks weird. Shi Shu grabbed Qiuhuan's sleeve and stood up.

"This is the little ghost who asked me to come, but you kid is quite discerning, and you can see at a glance that I am not the little ghost of Nanyu." Qiu Wan shook his long hair in a chic manner.

What's going on with this inexplicable femininity!

Qiu Huan, who was working, neatly tied up his long hair, put on gloves and started drying.

Shi Shu glanced at the person quietly from time to time, and saw that she even wiped her sweat with her sleeves, and even glanced at her like a lazy cat.

"By the way, you're a male monster." As soon as Shi Shu's words came out, she regretted that she had asked such a shameful topic.

"Na, I said it, monsters have no gender, and occasionally you can learn from what a woman looks like, although Nan Yu is far worse than Lord Ben, but compared to you, she is not feminine, she is not bad." Qiu Huan ruthlessly told Shi Shu's flaws, and glanced at a certain place.

"Huh? You... You don't know shy youkai! Shi Shu's face was flushed, and he turned his back to pull the weeds.

"It's not completely none, really." Shi Shu didn't know what he was trying to write, so he shook off the messy thoughts in his mind.

The heat on his face finally came down.

"Okay, what are you thinking, it's done here, go over there, I'm lazy and found out, I won't help."

"Huh? Oooh. ”

Shi Shu honestly followed Qiu Huan to the corner of the wall, it was a clump of thorns, bare in the autumn, only clumps of wooden thorns remained, I heard that it was to prevent people from outside from coming in, and to protect the safety of students, these abrupt plants were not removed.

"Ah~ Finally completed the task." Shi Shu took off his gloves, took out toilet paper and rubbed it, and handed the rest to Shi Shu.

"Hmph, I'm still a girl who knows something, but why didn't the narcissistic imp who clinged to you come with you?"

"Narcissistic imp? Shen You? He's the squad leader, how can he come over, and..."Narcissist, she thinks steamed buns are even better.

I only dare to express my meaning quietly with my eyes, and I don't dare to come out at all in the second half of the sentence, if this steamed bun guy uses magic power here, they will definitely be sliced.

"What else?" Qiu Huan obviously didn't want to let go of Shi Shu, so he came over to help her work, this kind of little ghost who doesn't know gratitude! Let's take a beating. (Can't seem to beat it?) )

"Ahem, it's nothing, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Shi Shucai is impossible to recruit.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard today, you must have a good rest when you go back."

On the way home, Shen You chased after him.

"I think you should feel it, youkai." He spoke very bluntly and purposefully.

"Well, but what's your business?" Qiu Huan will not be polite to him every time.

"Okay, today, Friday, the students have gone home for the holidays, and we will come to investigate tomorrow." Shi Shu didn't hide it, and told her and Qiu Huan's plan.

"I'll come tomorrow too, you must wait for me." Shen You said very excitedly, and looked at Nan Yu (Qiu Huan) from time to time.

"Poof, little ghost, take away your disgusting look." Qiu Huan hit him mercilessly.

"You? Why do you want to be like someone else? Anyway, I'll be here tomorrow anyway. Shen You fled in embarrassment.

"Tsk..."

"Huh?"

Children, you don't need to know so much!

Along an unfamiliar path, three people and a youkai sneak up on the back wall of the school.

The specific situation is that Shi Shu and Qiu Huan were blocked in bed, and they suspected that the two had a good discussion, so they waited in front of Shi Shu's house for a night, and then rubbed a breakfast in the difference and warm hospitality of Aunt Xiaoyun.

"It's fun to go out and have fun."

Before going out, I was kindly sent out by Aunt Xiaoyun and told him.

The campus was quiet on weekends, and the only thing in the back door was the sound of fallen leaves and birds, oh no, not even the birds.

It would be strange if there were no youkai.

Crunch, squeak...

Stepping on the fallen leaves that have not been cleaned, the sound is particularly clear in this quiet environment.

"Whew~ Are you looking for me?"

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ahh

Three shouts sounded at the same time, and everyone present was startled except for Qiu Huan.

"It's really not stable enough."

The voice laughed at them.

"Okay, stop playing, isn't it good to be a monster directly." Qiu Huan seemed much calmer at this time, after all, he was an old monster who didn't know how old he was. (The author can talk about it.) )

"Heh, isn't it right in front of you?"

The youkai seemed to have no malicious intent, and appeared directly in front of them.

Long brown hair spread all over his body, and a pair of dark green eyes were hidden in his hair, emitting a pitch-black glow. The monster was sitting on the ground, and when it stood up, it was very tall, much taller than Shen You, who was 1.8 meters tall.

"Humans, youkai, and you, Delay."

"Are you here to discipline me this time?"

For some reason, after the youkai said this, an indescribable sadness emanated from its body.

"Discipline? This guy is just an unstable girl, she's not the guy who delays time, although she doesn't want to admit it, but her grandfather is a little better than her. "The poisonous tongue Qiuhuan is online.

"You!"

Sure enough, Qiu Huan, who was slapped in the face, was much more honest, but he stunned the monster opposite, and the two people next to him looked like they were used to it.

"Since you're not a delay, what do you want to do?" The youkai who said this was as calm as stagnant water, and the light in his eyes at first seemed to be an illusion.

"Well, we're here to get rid of demons." Nan Yu didn't know what to say for a while, so he still stood up and said the last sentence, anyway, he couldn't let the monster go astray.

"Oh? You're here to kill me this time. Continue in a calm tone.

………

"Okay, youkai, right, we won't necessarily kill you, we just need to investigate your purpose here." Shen You saw where Nan Yu was standing in a daze, and hurriedly interjected.

"The purpose? I'm just a youkai who grew up here, see, that's my essence. "The monster bluntly pointed out the body to a few people, and did not play cards according to the routine at all.

"Why don't we get into a fight. "A few people who are obviously good-tempered feel uncomfortable inexplicably.

"Hahaha, you little devils can't beat him." Although Shi Shu's demonic power is strong enough, she can't use it herself.

"Okay, youkai, for no other reason, let's tell me about your acquaintance with the delay." Only Qiu Huan was not deviated.

"He took the only thing I cherished, and that's it." The madness and despair of the past are now only bland.

"Well, I'll give it back to you." Shi Shu really couldn't stand the appearance of this monster, as if he had been let down by the whole world.

"Really... Target? Will you give me back? "That monster is not as indifferent as before.

It must be a very important thing, and once you touch it, you will no longer be reserved and calm.

That's a sad story.

"Okay, Nanyu, don't cry."

"I, I just can't stop, why can't youkai be with people. Wow..."

"Little ghost, you seem to belong to a demon hunting family." Qiu Huan mends the knife.

"Let's give it a go." Shen You handed the paper.

The story of youkai and humans, is it destined to be sad? The whistling autumn wind seems to be crying.

[I'm a thorny monster with thorns all over my body]

[I bloomed a flower in autumn and gave it to that human]

[It's so beautiful, I'll give it to you, Ye Mo]

[The human who plucked the flower gave it to me, how to give up this feeling]

[The child's bouquet of flowers is still oozing blood from the place where it was pierced, just like a human and a monster]

My encounter with you is destined to be beautiful but only hurtful.

The bluish blood seeps into the Monogatari.

Thank you, Shi Shu.
