Because she didn't have a class herself, she came to Amamiya Chizuru just because she wanted to give herself such a big backpack, so Naoki Natsume slipped away after listening to a class with her.

The electives in the Faculty of Commerce were useless to him, and it was another matter whether he would inherit the garment factory in the future, so he didn't need to learn business knowledge like Amamiya Chizuru.

It is also impossible to avoid having a huge business at home that needs to be inherited.

Although Amamiya Chizuru doesn't like to let her father have the final say in everything, and because of the car accident back then, she felt that the tragedy caused by Amamiya Konma's drunken driving killed her mother, so she behaved so rebellious.

But people with high business standards will not be ignorant of the general situation, Amamiya Chizuru knows that even if he has an opinion on his father, it is also a family affection that is thicker than water, and he likes the second dimension behind his back, being an otaku, and even secretly becoming the youngest designer in Tokyo through his own efforts, but this is all a small fight.

In the end, this huge Amamiya consortium still has to fall on his shoulders.

Well......

and on the shoulders of her future husband, it would be great if she could find someone to share it with.

And what about Naoki Natsume?

The scale of the family's garment factory is only a big factory in the town, and it is a drop in the ocean compared to the family business of the Amamiya family.

Natsume and his wife also don't have any requirements for their son, and the two of them feel that they owe their son too much, and Natsume Naoki will do what he likes in the future.

For example, developing games.

He admires companies and teams that are starting from scratch, such as game science.

Walking on the Shadow Bridge, Naoki Natsume looked at the cherry trees on the banks of the Kanda River that had withered flowers and only green leaves, and thought about the events of the previous few months for no reason.

That was in April.

His body is comparable to that of an old man in his last years, and he will cough and shiver at the slightest cold.

On that day, when I went shopping, I came to Muto Grocery Store to get an overseas courier, and I was going to make Chinese medicine for my senior sister after the start of school.

Accompanied by Asai, it was the first time the two of them went out shopping.

At that time, I didn't have this thought, and I only had a gloomy life and a touch of color that belonged to my senior sister.

Now that I think about it, in fact, since then, Asai has also been colorful, and her gray life has become colorful because of her arrival.

"At that time, I also told Asai that if my health improves, I can take a long detour after class and come to the shadow bridge to walk often."

Naoki Natsume muttered as he looked at Grandma Muto, who was bending over and sweeping the floor at the door of Muto's grocery store.

The corners of his mouth rose, and he sighed with a smile: "I didn't expect that it was just a casual fantasy at the time, but now it has come true." ”

A green leaf falls from the treetops and floats leisurely into the Kanda River, where it drifts away with the waves.

Because of his unauthorized abandonment, the light that passed through the layers of obstruction lost its last barrier, and a bunch of spots fell between Naoki Natsume's eyebrows.

Shaken by the sun, he squinted slightly, and saw the girl slowly leaning down in the halo, and the face and lips that were slowly approaching.

Naoki Natsume was stunned for a moment, stopped, and stood on the Shadow Bridge, looking at the scenery by the river.

He held out his fingers blankly and stroked his lips.

"This is ...... just now"

There was a dream-like touch on the lips, like a marshmallow touching the corners of the mouth, but there was no sticky astringency of sugar, only the fragrance of the girl's red lips.

"It's ...... Is this my memory? ”

Naoki Natsume muttered softly, why did he feel as if Asai had kissed him?

At what time?

And because of what?

I don't know, not even the fleeting touch.

But Naoki Natsume felt as if it was from this kiss that he didn't know when it fell, and his life had a color.

Just like the blue sky and green trees now, the noon sun is as bright as it is.

"Yo, it's Natsume!"

Grandma Muto saw Naoki Natsume coming towards her, she waved her hand and said with a kind face: "School?" ”

"Yes, grandma," Naoki Natsume left his fingers from his lips, he didn't even notice it, and he had been smiling on his face since just now, "There will be a class this morning, and I will come and have a look after class early." ”

"Want something?" Grandma Muto hurriedly beckoned Naoki Natsume into the store: "Tell grandma what is missing at home, grandma will prepare it for you next time...... I don't sell vegetables, but if you don't have time to go to the supermarket, tell grandma, I'll help you carry it next time. ”

Naoki Natsume shook his head and entered the store, the store is not big, but the things are neatly placed and spotless, and the creeper at the door is also planted by Grandma Muto herself, giving people the feeling of a small shop in a dream where happiness was the source of happiness when I was a child.

When he was a child in Hokkaido, he remembered that there was always snow at the door, and when he was in elementary school, he walked by every day to play, and if he could go back to Hokkaido when he had time, he should go and see if he couldn't open it.

Just this summer.

Naoki Natsume thought to himself, if Asai is willing, let's go back to Hokkaido together.

I don't know where her hometown is, and whether her parents will worry about it.

Thinking about it this way, Natsume Naoki thinks that it would be too selfish to only care about himself?

Forget it, let's go back and discuss.

"I didn't want anything, I just came to talk to grandma."

Entering the store was like entering his own home, Naoki Natsume walked around the house for half a circle, took the broom placed in the corner of the wall, and began to help Grandma Muto sweep the floor.

Grandma Muto knew that she couldn't talk about Natsume, and she knew his character very well.

A good boy who is kind and helpful will definitely have a happy life.

"You've been getting better lately." Grandma Muto was sincerely pleased, and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Smiles are contagious, Natsume Naoki felt that Grandma Muto was several years younger when she laughed, so she laughed too: "Yes, having a good body is more important than anything else." ”

"I didn't understand this until I was old." Grandma Muto was really tired, she was too old, so she straightened up and hammered her back, "What kind of love did you feel when you were young, money...... Those things are gluttonous. As a result, I learned that nothing is more important than health! There is no hurdle that cannot be passed, now look back, heh...... When I was younger, I didn't understand anything. ”

Naoki Natsume helped sweep the floor, Grandma Muto gave him a small maza, and the two of them sat side by side at the door, watching the tram jingle on the opposite side of the road and watching the sun shine on passers-by.

Squinted, the sun was so warm.

"It's been a long time since I've seen that little girl in Asai." Grandma Muto asked suddenly, she looked a little cramped, "Is she okay?" ”

Naoki Natsume didn't hear the subtlety of Grandma Muto, but replied with a smile, "She's very good, and I've become fond of classes lately." ”

Grandma Muto glanced at Naoki Natsume and smiled happily.

It's a smile from the heart.

So the hanging heart was also put down.

It's so good that when he talks about her, he smells of happiness in him.

That girl is really nice, although Asai has only been here a few times since Naoki Natsume led her here for the first time, but when she is older, she can't be wrong to look at people.

I've seen too many people of all kinds in my life, and it's the first time I've seen such an innocent girl for Grandma Muto.

Such a girl is a blessing no matter whose wife she becomes in the future.

But only on Naoki Natsume, Grandma Muto feels that the two of them are a match made in heaven, not who is the blessing of whom.

Her affection and recognition for Naoki Natsume is even no less than that of her nephew.

Because the daughter followed her son-in-law to China for development, the nephew naturally followed, and I haven't seen him for more than a year, so I guess the nephew is about to forget what grandma looks like, right?

His nephew is too far away to take care of him, so this young man who often comes to the store must be happy.

"Natsume."

"What's wrong, grandma?"

"Leave a phone call for grandma." There was more hope on her kind face, as if she had hope for life: "My old man is gone, my daughter is not around, if there is an emergency, I don't want to go to the hospital and not even have a familiar face." ”

Speaking of this, Grandma Muto seemed to be afraid that Natsume Naoki would be embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid that I will let you spend money, I will tell you where the money in the store is put when I go back, even if I can't wake up, I won't let you waste money." ”

"Grandma, you're thinking too much."

Grandma Muto looked at Naoki Natsume shaking her head and chuckling, knowing that he was not that kind of person, but once you get older, you will be prone to thinking too much.

"And that's what," the two sentences just now were what she thought temporarily, and she was afraid of this when she was old, so she said it in passing, and the next thing was the main purpose of her call: "Grandma, I don't have a head under my hands when I cook." When the old man was still there, he made too much and someone gave him food, but now he is alone and can't eat. ”

She looked at Naoki Natsume, hoping even more: "One day when there is too much food, give you a call, if you are willing to come to eat, I will add more chopsticks, and the house will be lively...... It would be nice if I could bring a shallow well. ”

"The two of you are playing outside one day and have a meal, it's close to here, don't waste money to eat, call grandma, my wife and my craft won't be ashamed of you."

In the old man's thoughts, he actually didn't understand the atmosphere of men and women going out to eat on a date.

Maybe the old people actually know, but they think that there is no atmosphere like home.

It's a pity that the young people now like to go to movie theaters and high-end restaurants on dates.

"Okay, I got it, grandma." Naoki Natsume smiled and responded, since Grandma Muto said so, when it's okay another day, let's bring Asai here for a walk.

When he moved here as a freshman, he was unfamiliar with his life, and Grandma Muto helped him a lot, and the number of times he came to buy things without charging money once made Naoki Natsume embarrassed to come again.

But he also knew that grandma did this because there was no one to talk to, and she couldn't escape from loneliness in her later years.

So when she met pleasing guests, her grandmother always didn't charge money and wanted them to come more.

As a result, only Natsume became a regular customer, and the others only felt that they had taken advantage of it and were complacent.

If the benefits disappear after receiving them, I guess grandma will be sad, right?

"Thank you, Natsume, come and help me clean up after school," Grandma Muto said with a smile: "I'm old and useless, if you don't help me for a while, I'll have to be busy for a long time!" ”

Grandma Muto is really good at talking, Natsume Naoki thought to herself, she praised herself so much, she guessed that she was about to open her mouth to send something, right?

Just like before, there are endless excuses, but the purpose is the same.

"What do you want to eat?" Sure enough, Grandma Muto thumped her waist and walked towards the Xiaoice cabinet, she opened the glass lid and said, "Eat a popsicle, right?" I can't sell these expensive ones, I have diabetes, and I can't eat cold things when I'm old, can you help me eat two? ”

"No need grandma, I didn't eat in the morning, and eating popsicles on an empty stomach will hurt my stomach."

"Yo, how can you skip breakfast?"

It's bad, Natsume Naoki sighed in his heart.

The brain didn't turn a corner, and he said the wrong thing.

So he hurriedly diverted the topic before Grandma Muto spoke: "What, Asai She recently raised a cat, but she doesn't know how to raise it, I remember grandma, you have several cats at home, right?" Is there any cat food for sale? ”

As soon as Grandma Muto heard about raising a cat, she became interested, not to mention that the little girl in Asai had a cat.

She knew best what kind of psychological comfort small animals could bring to people, and it would be great if Natsume could achieve a positive result with that little girl because of raising a cat.

"I've got three! There is no one at home to talk to, and if you don't raise something, the old woman will suffocate to death. ”

As she spoke, Grandma Muto took out half a bag of cat food from the back room, estimating that it would be almost a pound.

"I'll give you these cat foods, my three kittens love to eat them!"

"This can't be done, grandma, I always take things for nothing, I'm embarrassed to come next time."

"Then you can give two coins, and the extra money will be swaying on your body and uncomfortable, so you will throw the old woman here."

Naoki Natsume took out his pocket, he didn't bring much today, just a few coins in change, he thought about it, and secretly pressed the only 10,000 yen bill under the book at the cash register at the door while Grandma Muto was not paying attention.

"Then grandma, I'll go back first!" Naoki Natsume went out with half a bag of exquisite cat food and shouted at the house: "Next time I will bring Asai to see you!" ”

Grandma Muto sent him out the door, waved his hand and saw him go away, and when he returned to the store, he found the banknote and coin.

"This kid ......" Grandma Muto looked at the money, and a trace of warmth flowed in her heart.

"More sensible than my nephew...... It's been a long time since I called......"

I look forward to Natsume coming every day, but after the people came, they became even more lonely.

Grandma Muto looked at the shop, sighed, put away the banknotes, and kept it for next time if he brought Asai to cook a sumptuous meal for the two of them, and buy some big fish and meat to entertain them.

If you can't see those two people walking together, you can't bear to close your eyes!

Sitting in the store and looking at the exact same scenery just now, Grandma Muto felt that it was not as reassuring as just now.

Rubbing her phone, she hesitated for a long time and decided to make a long-distance call.

This long-distance phone call will cross the ocean to another country.

"Toot ......"

The phone rang for a long time, and it finally came through.

"Hey, I'm grandma."

The small shop echoed with Grandma Muto's more restrained voice, and her rickety body was hidden in the store, as if a child who had done something wrong was calling his parents, "You're fine over there, aren't you?" ”

Naoki Natsume held the cat food, took out the key and unscrewed the door, and as soon as he walked in, he saw a black shadow swishing from one end of the living room to the other.

Because his view was blocked from the entrance, he only saw a shadow like a white horse passing through the gap.

But guess what it is.

"What's going on?" He changed his shoes and came to the living room, looked at the girl in the cage and said, "You just came out, right?" ”

Sister Shake saw clearly that it was Naoki Natsume, and there was no sign of anyone behind her, so she showed a sigh of relief and opened the cage again by herself.

"Meow!"

"You thought Asai was back?" Naoki Natsume suddenly felt that something was wrong: "What do you mean by these eyes?" It's as if it doesn't matter if it's me who comes back. ”

"Meow!"

"Because I'm a good person?"

Naoki Natsume frowned: "It's okay to be issued a good person card today, why was a good person card issued by a cat?" ”

------Off topic------

If you haven't been to your grandparents' or grandparents' house for a long time, give them a call during the day!

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
