Tetsufumi Hirakawa woke up, yawned, and covered it with his hands.

Quite cozy, want to stretch out.

But after waiting for a few seconds, listening to the vague and sleepy voice in his ears, Tetsufumi Hirakawa finally remembered what this place was.

He stopped the urge to stretch.

When I opened my eyes and glanced at the stage, there was already a spokesperson, as if it was some kind of retired official. Beside me, the young and beautiful female teacher is still listening carefully.

It's a little too serious, and this kind of thing can actually be listened to.

"Mr. Kuda." Tetsufumi Hirakawa rubbed her arm with his elbow, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

The pen in Kuda Moshu's hand kept writing, and he didn't look at him: "It should be about half an hour." ”

"How long will it take?"

"An hour."

"Okay." Hirakawa Tetsufumi understood, rubbed his neck with his hand, and then sighed in a low voice, "Actually, I sleep quite comfortably here." ”

“……”

The pen in Kuda's hand paused.

I don't know what words poked her, and there was a flash of shyness on the female teacher's face.

Well?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa was puzzled and wanted to ask.

Kuda Moshu took the notebook and recorded it again.

I had to stop there.

——

Towards 12 o'clock, in a rather rigid curtain call, this morning's nearly four-hour lecture ended.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa and Maki Kuda go out with the crowd.

As he walked, Kuda found Tetsufumi Hirakawa a little strange.

"Mr. Hirakawa, what are you doing?" With a pen and notebook in his hand, Hinata asked curiously.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa was leaning the tip of his nose close to his right shoulder at the moment, sniffing softly: "It feels like...... What does it taste like. ”

After sniffing, he analyzed it carefully and added: "It seems to be quite fragrant." ”

“…… Huh. ”

"What's wrong?"

Kuda Moshu turned away, and the notebook pressed against his chest: "That...... Well...... Mr. Hirakawa, where are you going to eat lunch? ”

Change the subject.

However, Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't think much about it, the tip of his nose left his shoulder, and after thinking about it, he replied casually: "Let's go to the hotel restaurant." ”

"Uh-huh." Kuda Moshu nodded repeatedly.

——

After lunch at noon, I went back to my room to rest, and it was time for the afternoon meeting.

At the meeting, various topics were discussed, such as "Discussion on the Restructuring of Educational Methods Based on the Case of a University" and "Excellent Guidance Measures for Students with Problems......

Tetsufumi Hirakawa also took the stage to give a few remarks on the topic of "An Inquiry into the Boundary of Teachers' Duties and Powers."

In short, after a conference, Tetsufumi Hirakawa listened to some of the more interesting topics, and most of the rest of the time he was in a fugue state.

It can't be said that it is useless at all, it can only be said that it is a little useful, but not much.

——

Soon came the evening.

"Mr. Kuda, shall you go out for a walk?"

Standing at the door of Kuda's room, Tetsufumi Hirakawa proposed to the female teacher who appeared in front of him after opening the door.

"Again...... Walk? ”

When the word walk is mentioned, Kuda Moshu's face is a little subtle.

"......" Tetsufumi Hirakawa wanted to laugh a little when he saw this, but he held back in the threatening gaze of the female teacher.

"It's not a walk." After clearing some of his memories, Tetsufumi Hirakawa explained, "Actually, I wanted to go to a nearby bookstore. ”

"A bookstore?"

"Well, there's nothing to do in a hotel."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa nodded.

If it's home, it doesn't matter if it's at home, but if it's a hotel, it won't take long to feel like going out - especially if you're reading a book.

"This ...... All right. There's nothing to do, so let's accompany Mr. Hirakawa. ”

“……”

“……”

"It's going to the bookstore, the bookstore!"

"Mr. Kuda, I didn't say anything." Tetsufumi Hirakawa behaved innocently.

"......" Kuda Moshu glanced at him.

I didn't say it, I didn't say it, but I always looked like I wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

——

After Kazuki Kuda left the hotel, Tetsufumi Hirakawa took his mobile phone and navigated all the way to the bookstore.

It didn't take long to arrive.

It was already late at nine o'clock, and the starlight was so scattered that it was almost invisible, and under such a canopy, on the bustling street, there was a small bookstore on the side of the street, Japanese style Japanese, wooden doors.

Soft lights escape from the store into the night on the side of the street, illuminating the name of the bookstore here.

"Kobayashi Bookstore?" Hinata Moki looked up at the name of the store and was surprised.

"Hmm." Tetsufumi Hirakawa nodded. He knew the name of the store on the map, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

When you walk into the store, you can see at a glance that there are stacks of "Norwegian Wood" on the most conspicuous bookshelf at the door.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa smiled when he saw the title of the book, this deliberate placement undoubtedly said something.

He looked at it several times before looking away, then at the counter next to him.

Inside the wooden counter, a middle-aged woman sits with her head bowed and a book on her lap, reading a book.

"Midoriko Kobayashi?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa became interested and whispered to her.

There was no answer, she still kept her head down and read the book.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't care either, he just asked casually, and he didn't answer. Then, turn around and get ready to take a look around the store. As a result, when I looked over, I saw a small sign on the counter.

It reads four words:

[Same surname and same name]

"It's really Midoriko."

Kuda Moshu also saw this sign and muttered.

"There may always be people who want to ask." Tetsufumi Hirakawa approached Maki Kuda, because it was inside the bookstore, and guessed the origin of the brand

For example, he just now.

"There are always some people who can't see the sign." Kuda Moshu also posted ** Tetsufumi Kawa said.

"You can make the sign a little bigger." Tetsufumi Hirakawa doesn't think it's his own problem.

And just like that, the topic of this is over. Tetsufumi Hirakawa and Maki Kuda walk into the bookstore and start selecting books.

Not only did I have no books to read in the hotel, but most of the books at home were also read.

Therefore, Tetsufumi Hirakawa decided to pick a few more.

"Anna Karenina", I always wanted to buy it but for some reason always forgot it, but I remembered it this time.

"The Brothers Karamazov" - by contrast, it seems that another book by this author, "Crime and Punishment", is a little more well-known.

By the way, "Crime and Punishment" was also bought.

……

Not long after wandering around, Tetsufumi Hirakawa was holding several books in his hands.

He doesn't pick books very much - it should be said that he thinks that the reason why these famous books are called masterpieces is naturally excellent, and he must not regret buying them.

Therefore, he chose his books rather randomly.

In contrast, the other customers in the bookstore are much more cautious in their selection.

Books in Japan are really expensive.

Hardcover books cost 10,000 yen.

Fortunately, Tetsufumi Hirakawa has no financial pressure, at least there is no problem in realizing the freedom of reading.

Holding the book, after picking 5 books, I finally felt a little heavy, so I decided to stop and prepare to find Hinata Moshu.

However, after stepping out of the cover of the bookshelf, Tetsufumi Hirakawa's vision turned and crossed the door of the bookstore.

I don't know if it's wrong, he seems to have seen the figure of a very familiar girl, passing by the door of the bookstore.

Well?

"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.
