Natsume Takashi and the others were all shocked.
Yingzi looks soft and weak, and she will possess the little girl. No matter what the reason is, it is difficult for such a small child to bear the possession of a monster.
Sure enough, Miki went on to say that the youngest daughter spoke only for a moment. At that time, he felt a cold wind blowing into the room. When he wanted to confirm whether the youngest daughter spoke, the child had passed out.After that, the girl had a fever, and Miki hurriedly asked his wife to take the two children to hide with relatives, and he stayed to contact the exorcist.
Miki had a bitter face, with thick dark circles under his eyes: "When I bought this house, the price was very fair. At that time, I thought I made money, but now I have completely changed my mind. I suspect that there was a problem with the house at the beginning."
"We know." After listening to Miki's narration on Monday, Natori leaned forward with a smile and said, "Mr. Miki, can I have a look around with my friend?"
"Of course." Miki got up and made a gesture of invitation: "Everyone can check it at will, I will wait in the yard first, I always feel creepy in the house."
"Okay." Natori sent Miki out on Monday, then turned back, and asked Abe Harasai straight to the point: "Mr. Abe, have you achieved your purpose here?"
Natsume Takashi felt the weird atmosphere between Abe Harusai and Natori Monday, he walked up to Natori Monday, and asked Abe Seusai first: "Mr. Abe, Mr. Natori is a very reliable person, can you tell him our mission? ?”
Just now Natori Monday tacitly allowed them to follow in, and even listened to Miki's experience, which was actually a recognition of them. If Abe Harusai came alone, he might be scolded by the master.He nodded and asked Natsume Takashi to tell Natori Monday.
The two parties gathered the information and guessed that Miki was the offspring of Sakurako's lover.Yingzi's persistence in this matter can be seen, and they can't rush to convey Yingzi's thoughts to Miki, otherwise Miki will be frightened.Therefore, satisfying Yingzi's wish and letting Yingzi return to the hidden world with peace of mind is the best way to solve the crisis now.
Natsume Takashi asked Madara to follow Hiiragi and other shikigami to find the traces of youkai, while he, Natori Monday and Abe Haruzai each searched for the relics of Miki's ancestors, trying to help Sakurako find the answer there.
after an hour.
Several people ran around upstairs and downstairs and searched the whole house, but there was still nothing.When they went downstairs to meet, Madara ran over, laying on Natsume Takashi's shoulder and said, "Natsume, there seems to be a monster in the warehouse next to the house, but the warehouse has a lock and a charm, so it's not convenient for us to go in."
This is the only clue left.In desperation, Natori could only come forward on Monday and try to ask Miki if he could help open the door of the warehouse.Miki hesitated unexpectedly, and after thinking about it for a long time, he gritted his teeth and went to get the key.
Theoretically speaking, Miki's family has just moved in for two months, and the things in the warehouse should have been put in not long ago, but as the door opened, a musty smell mixed with old smell, accompanied by a lot of dust, came to the face. Come.
"Ahem!" Miki himself was choked, and he waved his hands to dispel the smell: "You can go in and have a look, but be careful not to touch those things if you can. They are all old things left by the ancestors, and too much dust has accumulated."
Miki seemed to be apprehensive about the things in the warehouse, opened the door and left again, leaving a name for them to enter the warehouse on Monday.
The warehouse was not full, and various old things were piled up to occupy half of the area. Everyone searched separately, Madara sniffed everywhere, and caught a trace of a monster's breath.
"It's inside." Madara said, pointing to a pile of boxes.But he didn't intend to do it himself, so he directed Hiiragi and said, "Hey, you guys move it!"
"Huh? Why should we move? Don't you have self-awareness as a pet?"
Madara: "I'm a bodyguard! Bodyguard!"
Natsume Takashi started flipping without saying a word, coughed from the choking, and asked distractedly: "Teacher, there are a lot of things in here, what are they?"
Madara stopped arguing and sniffed carefully: "Ah, it's that rusty iron box!"
Natori Monday and Abe Harumai were not idle either. Natori Monday found many books related to spells in the warehouse, and Abe Harumai also found many formations drawn on paper.
Natsume Takashi managed to pull out the box, and called Natori Monday and Abe Harumai to look at it, and unexpectedly saw the formation map in Abe Harusai's hand, and hurriedly took it into his hands.
"This is...?" Natori Monday also saw it, he and Natsume Takashi exchanged glances, and simply put away the formation diagram.
Abe Harasai got the iron box and didn't object to Natori Monday's taking it without asking. He shook the iron box, and there was a ding-dong sound inside.He said, "Shall we open it and see?"
"Open it." Natsume Takashi was also curious about what was inside, so he and Natori Monday moved over together.
The box was so rusted that it took Abe Harumai a long time to lift the lid very awkwardly.
"I found... Liang Kong... the taste of Liang Kong Lord..."
Yingzi followed at some point, she rushed over and snatched the box.
Abe Harusai: "Calm down, Miss Sakurako."
Yingzi seemed to have never heard of it, and took out a dried cherry blossom from the box, and said with a pale face: "Flowers, the flowers I gave him..."
"Miss Sakurako, you..." Natsume Takashi was afraid that Sakurako would be unstable, and just wanted to come forward to comfort him, but Natori Monday stopped him in time and shook his head at him.
Yingzi was chattering in a low voice, and they could only guess a little clue from her few words.It seems that the dried petals in the box were given to Miki by Sakurako, and the same rusty cherry blossom brooch was a gift Miki promised to give to Sakurako, but did not give it for some reason.
Natsume Takashi watched anxiously for a long time, Yingzi's thin fingers finally picked up a stack of letter papers, looked up at the crowd, and handed the letter papers to Natsume Takashi tremblingly: "I don't know human characters, please read for me Read what's written, can you?"
It may be that Natsume Takashi is the most good-looking here, so it is easy to win trust.Natsume Takashi took the letter paper and read it to Sakurako one by one.
"The weather is fine today, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, as beautiful as you."
"I don't know how you are doing there. I heard that there are many people like you there. I think you will be happy."
"Before I knew it, it's been three years since I said goodbye to you. I thought about looking for you desperately, but I couldn't let go of my blood, so I can only wrong you. I'm sorry."
"Ten years have passed. I haven't heard your voice or seen your smiling face for ten years. Have you forgotten me? I miss you very much, but I don't seem to have the courage to find you. "
"It's been 15 years. I have wrinkles on my face, and I look like a middle-aged uncle. I guess, you should still be as beautiful as ever, haha, I can still think of your smile."
"The cherry blossoms are still beautiful this year. It's been 20 years... I've become weaker and weaker recently, and I always sleep for a long time. Am I getting old?"
"This should be the last time I wrote to you. After writing for so long, you haven't received a single letter. I'm sorry; I didn't fulfill my promise to find you, I'm sorry. It would be nice if I said I like you more... ...but luckily, you can't see me now."
The author has something to say: Has any of you heard the song [Majestic] by Hiroshi Kamiya?I listened to it for the first time today, and I imagined a wild Natsume Takashi... Ah!so exciting~
