"Huh?"

When I first saw it, I thought it was the little pet of the Yakumo family! Although the body is also black, the kitten's pupils are red, and it has two small hair knots tied on its head.

It's still a pet, but it's another person.

The flame cat licked the soles of her feet a few times, then jumped to the ground and ran towards me.

"Meow ......"

Rubbing against my calf, it circled around me twice.

"Strange, why does this weather come to me?"

Bending down and hugging the flame cat, gently stroking its back, the smooth fur is soft and feels very comfortable to touch.

Coming here in the rain without getting half wet, in this regard, it is much better than the other kitten.

"Whew, Whew......"

Enjoying my petting, the flame cat squinted her eyes and let out a low cry of pleasure.

"What a laid-back little thing!"

There is no desire, pursuit, and I won't worry about those boring things, but I just want to be with the person I love and play with each other, so it's the easiest way to live!

Simple, and simple, it is really an enviable way of life.

Suddenly, I felt a little itchy in my hand, and when I looked down, I realized that the kitten was gently licking the palm of my hand with its own tongue.

"It's not food!"

Pinch its head and I placed it on my thigh.

The flame cat stretched for a long time, then curled up in a ball and lay on top of his lap.

"Hoo ......"

The ear twitched, and then it stopped moving.

It was as if I was asleep.

The rain outside the window has become a little hazy.

The surrounding Qiē gradually quieted down, and even the speed of time seemed to slow down.

"Tick, tick......"

In this quiet world, only the sound of the clock is more audible.

"Hey. ”

I felt a strange wind blowing on my neck, and then my eyes went black, and my eyes were covered by two soft little hands.

"Guess, guess, I, yes, who?"

Not in keeping with the fresh breath, the girl's voice was full of joy in the success of the prank.

"Hmmm......"

It felt familiar, but not anyone around me.

"I don't know. ”

I'll be honest.

"I'll give you another chance, and I'll guess carefully!"

The people behind me didn't seem satisfied with my answer, and they didn't take their hands off my eyes.

"Well, I really don't know. ”

I don't know how to pretend to understand, that's not something I like to do.

"Woo, I'm so disappointed, why can't you even guess Brother Dongfang? Obviously, my sister will immediately know that she is in love every time!"

When I finally took my hand away, I turned my head and saw the girl's little face with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Ancient name Jiai, a magical girl, she has incredible power, and she can suddenly appear next to me silently every time.

Still, to me, she's just as cute a little girl as they are.

"Because she knows you better than I do!"

I replied with a smile.

In addition to her, there is only that group of small animals around Gu Ming Dijue, and no one else can and cannot approach her quietly, except for this only sister, so how can he not guess that it is that person!

"Well, maybe so. ”

The ancient name of the land love with the index finger in his mouth, tilting his head and saying in a daze.

She also believes that there is no one in this world who knows her better than her sister.

"It's a bad habit to hold your fingers! there's a lot of dirty stuff on it, and it's going to make you sick. ”

"Ah, I see. ”

What an obedient and good boy, but why rub her fingers with my clothes?

"Hmm. ”

Konaji ran over and sat down next to me.

"Meow. ”

The flame cat on her lap barked at her lazily.

"Ran, so you're here, too! ”

Seeing it, the girl was overjoyed, grabbed the kitten, and hugged it in her arms.

"But why didn't you tell me when you came here? ”

Ravaging its head, the ancient name of the land love is very dissatisfied with the other party's behavior of leaving him to sneak out to play alone.

"It also just arrived. ”

"Really?"

Hearing me defend the flame cat, the girl looked at the kitten in her arms.

"Meow meow. ”

The flame cat flicked its tail a few times, and there was an aggrieved look in its eyes.

"Well, since that's the case, then I'll forgive you for once. ”

Touching its head, the ancient name of the land love hugged it a little tighter.

"You're coming to me alone, okay?"

Needless to say, the ancient name of the love must have escaped by one person.

I'm a little worried about whether her sister will come along later.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible.

"It's okay, it's going to be fine. ”

The girl replied with a relaxed face, for this kind of thing, Gu Ming Dijue only said a few words to her at most.

Of course, there won't be a problem.,How can the ancient name of the land love be angry with you, a baby sister!

She'll just come to me to settle accounts.

Every time the ancient name of the earth lover slipped out of the Earth Spirit Temple, Gu Ming Dijue would think that it was my reason that caused his sister to run around.

No way, who let most of the places where Funaji Love came to be Kakinejima!

But since she doesn't care about it herself, I don't need to worry about it.

"Ah, by the way, you made my sister angry!"

It seems that I only remembered it by chance.,The ancient name of the land who shook his legs said casually.。

"Well, what are you talking about?"

I was thinking about a mess in my head, and I didn't hear what she was saying for a while.

"You made my sister angry. ”

The ancient name came over and shouted loudly in my ear.

"I heard it, I heard it, I don't have to be so loud, okay?"

I shrank my head and moved away a little.

"Why?"

It's been a long time since I've seen Gu Mingdijue, how could I make her angry?

"Hmph, because you didn't come to our banquet. ”

Speaking of which, the girl was a little angry, and she also had a part in helping at that banquet! But in the end, no one came, which was really disappointing.

"What banquet?"

I'm starting to feel a little inexplicable, why have I never heard anyone talk about it?

"Hey, didn't Sora say that the letter had been delivered to you? Why don't you even know that?"

Compared to me, the ancient name is even more confused, and it is impossible for the air to lie!

Even if he did, he couldn't deceive his sister.

"Letter?"

Vaguely, I remembered the incident that happened not long ago, the last time I saw Lingwu Lukong, it seemed to have really sent me something.

It seems like a small note.

But before I could read it, I met the Sealed Beast Owl, and then I put this note in the book.

And then, well, the book was given back to Pache and I forgot about it.

But I didn't expect that we were going to be invited to the Earth Spirit Hall for a banquet!

"I'm sorry, I really didn't know about it. ”

I sincerely apologized to her.

What a mistake, I didn't expect such a low-level mistake to happen to me.

"Really?"

"Well, definitely not lying to you. ”

I received the letter, but I didn't read it, so I can't be blamed for that.

"In that case, forget it. But ah, my sister is quite angry about this!"

Gu Naji Lian shook her head and said, it was the first time she had seen her sister lose her temper so much!

"Oh, I'll apologize to her when I get the chance. ”

"But my sister has already said that you will never be allowed to get even half a step close to the Earth Spirit Hall in the future. ”

"Don't worry, I naturally have a way. ”

"Well, I believe you. ”

The girl had no doubt about the other party's strength, and since he was able to free himself from the nightmare, it must be easy to calm Gu Mingdijue's anger.

"Ah, what are these?"

At a glance at the graffiti that were placed aside, Konato felt a little curious, and leaned over to take them in his hand.

"Something they painted. ”

I touched the body of the flame cat and replied.

As soon as Konaji let go, the kitten ran back to my lap.

But the girl didn't care about that, she was already attracted to other things.

"It's beautiful. ”

Gu Ming Jilian looked at the simple and rough paintings with envy and muttered.

She is not praising the pictures themselves, but the bright colors.

Her little head couldn't figure out what it was that could leave such a beautiful color on this blank paper.

"If you like it...... Well, I'll send you some crayons!"

Fortunately, it was re-exported in time, otherwise it would have been a habit to send these things out.

If you let those little ones know that I gave something to someone else, wouldn't they cry and make a fuss?

"Crayon, what's that?"

"It's something that makes such a beautiful picture. ”

"Really? Thank you so much. ”

Konato Jilian leaned on the table and looked at the three graffiti, feeling that the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Ahh ”

Flame Cat Yawned and wagged his tail twice, indicating that he wasn't interested in that kind of crayoon.

I glanced at her, closed my eyes, and continued to enjoy the silence.

"Whoa!"

It wasn't quiet for a few minutes, when there was a loud bang, and something broke through the window and rushed in.

"Meow!"

The kitten was so frightened that it jumped up, and even the ancient name of the land love showed a frightened look.

After a slight glance around, the other man stopped at me and then lunged at me.

"Dongfang, come with me. ”

Seeing Marisa's anxious expression on the verge of crying, I immediately put back my complaints.

"Where to go?"

"Needless to say, of course I'm going to find Alice, and by the way, the succubus-sama. ”

Marisa couldn't figure out why they had all left her in just one night.

The succubus's words are forgivable, after all, her personality is very casual, and even she, a descendant disciple, will not say a word to any place she wants to go.

But Alice couldn't understand it, and she should have volunteered to see the note she had left, but it was because of this that Marisa found it unacceptable.

didn't even say goodbye, is she just a dispensable person for her!

It's really hateful.

"Are they all gone?"

"How do you know?"

Marisa, who was trying to pull me away, stopped all of a sudden, and this news should be known only to her now?

"Guessed. ”

In fact, when I took Shenqi's group to find Alice, I had a premonition that this might happen.

But unexpectedly, the succubus also left with them.

"Since you already know she's leaving, why don't you stop her?"

Marisa confronted me that if she had known this would happen, she would never have let Alice and the others leave.

"Why?"

I looked at her curiously.

"She's just going back to her own place, why should I stop it?"

"You...... You ruthless fellow. ”

Marisa was so angry that she wanted to kick the bastard in front of her and fly into the sky.

In fact, she did kick her, but I gave her a gentle push and fell to the couch.

"What's the panic, it's not like she's never coming back. ”

“？”

Marisa immediately stood up and looked at me stunned.

"You say, Alice will come back?"

"Well, of course. Really, you've known her for so long, why don't you know her at all?"

I knocked her on the head and said dissatisfied.

Marisa touched her head and opened her mouth, but she didn't refute my words.

"Why can you be so sure?"

"The place of attachment does not mean that you can forget it. ”

"This is also her home!"

Just as Alice is an irreplaceable member of Gensokyo, Gensokyo has become an extremely important part of Alice's life.

A part that can never be separated.

"Trust me, she'll be back. ”
