Playing house in the anime world

"Aiko? What's wrong with you?"

After everyone took the things they wanted to buy and met in front of the checkout counter, Kenji Hagiwara noticed that Gojo Aiko was out of breath.

"No, nothing..."

It was just walking around the supermarket twice in half an hour.

Aiko Gojo looked around the cash register but didn't see the person she was looking for.

hateful!

The ghost boy from before was not found, and the alien robot is not found now!

Aiko Gojo was very depressed, her curiosity was about to explode.

At the same time, in the men's restroom of the supermarket, the "alien robot" was sitting on the toilet with an indifferent look on his face.

Only the strange thing was that his eyes seemed to be crossed.

[Ahhhhh, finally leaving.]

The alien robot... no, it was Saiki Kusuo, his crossed eyes quickly turned back to normal.

He stood up, pretended to have just finished using the bathroom, washed his hands at the door, then picked up his shopping basket and returned to the discounted jelly section.

[Luckily the coffee jelly is not sold out yet.]

Kusuo Saiki lives in Sawakifuku-cho, S City, Tokyo. Don’t ask him which city “S City” is, it’s just called “S City”.

The reason why I made an exception and came to the central area of ​​Tokyo, which is a little distance away from Sawakifuku-cho, was to buy coffee jelly at a special price of 100 yen each.

Kusuo Saiki is probably the world's number one coffee jelly fanatic, commonly known as the "coffee jelly chef"!

So even though he had some concerns, he still came.

As for why I have concerns...

Maybe it’s because this world is so dangerous that I run into trouble every time I go out.

And... after hiding for ten years, what was supposed to come finally came.

When Saiki Kusuo thought about this, he felt a headache.

Fortunately, the situation is much better than he imagined, and he shouldn't have to pay too much attention to this place from now on.

Carrying a basket full of coffee jelly, Saiki Kusuo left here satisfied.

……

"Alien robot?"

Both Hagiwara Kenji and Oda Sakunosuke showed puzzled expressions.

Are there aliens in this world?

"Could it be a human-shaped cursed spirit?" Kakyoin Noriaki came up with a bold idea.

"It's impossible for a cursed spirit to carry a shopping basket to the supermarket to shop..." Kenji Hagiwara felt that he might have to find another opportunity to talk to Gojo Satoru.

For example, ask him how powerful the strongest curse spirit can be, and whether it is possible for the curse spirit to transform into a human form and blend into the human population.

"Isn't Aiko unable to see the cursed spirits? Maybe they really are aliens." Oda Sakunosuke suddenly had an inspiration, such as writing a story about aliens or something.

Moreover, the setting of the robot is quite interesting and should be explored in depth.

"Aliens... I always feel that there is nothing strange about the existence of aliens... because, aren't we 'aliens'?" Kakyoin Noriaki suddenly laughed.

Everyone was silent for a moment, because what he said was really right.

"Anyway, let's test whether we can't see the curse spirit if we are too far away from Aiko."

"Mr. Oda, have you also lost sight of the cursed spirit after you separated from us?" Kakyoin Noriaki remembered that Oda Sakunosuke said that the place he was going was far away from the city center.

"Yes, I couldn't see the cursed spirits anymore after I arrived at the station." Oda Sakunosuke didn't care too much about it at the time. After all, he had supernatural powers and could perfectly foresee sudden attacks that might happen in a few seconds. It was also a passive skill that would be triggered automatically if there was any danger.

But his ability has not been triggered, so there should be no danger.

And their existence is closely related to Gojo Aiko. If Gojo Aiko encountered some danger that caused him to lose sight of the curse spirit, he felt that he might disappear as well, or "Playing House" should take some action.

"It feels like the distance is... farther than we thought." Kakyoin Noriaki remembered that they separated downstairs of the apartment building, and the station was about 50 meters away from the apartment.

The supermarket they went to was also a large one, occupying almost an entire floor of the shopping mall.

Because people on both sides were moving around, it was difficult to judge the exact distance, but it should be more than 50 meters.

"Let's try outside?" Hagiwara Kenji glanced at the lunch box that Gojo Aiko had taken. "It's just right. Let's go to the convenience store and eat convenience store food today."

After all, you have to be lazy occasionally.

So, several people came to the street in front of the apartment.

The straight street is 500 meters long, there is a bus station 50 meters away, and a convenience store is about 100 meters away.

Kenji Hagiwara took Aiko Gojo and Kyojuro Rengoku to the station and pretended to wait for the bus. Oda Sakunosuke went to a convenience store, while Noriaki Kakyoin continued walking forward.

[Oda Sakunosuke: You can still see it in convenience stores.

Emerald Hierophant: I can still see it for now.]

Kenji Hagiwara glanced at Noriaki Kakyoin, who was almost 100 meters away from the station.

[Emerald Hierophant: I can't see it now. The navigation shows it's exactly 100 meters away.]

Kenji Hagiwara breathed a sigh of relief. The distance of 100 meters was neither far nor close, and it was acceptable.

"Let's go to the convenience store." Hagiwara Kenji pulled Gojo Aiko and called Rengoku Kyojuro who was looking at the scenery to walk towards the convenience store.

Aiko Gojo held Kenji Hagiwara with one hand and Rengoku Kyojuro with the other.

Rengoku Kyojuro's unique hair color attracted a lot of attention along the way, and when the three of them walked together, there was always an inexplicable harmony yet a hint of weirdness.

Kakyoin Noriaki has returned to the convenience store and is discussing with Oda Sakunosuke which bento in the discount section would taste better.

Rengoku Kyojuro has a big appetite, so he can buy more and try what the food in this world tastes like.

Aiko Gojo is also a person who likes to try different flavors of food, so she followed Rengoku Kyojuro, and the two of them swept through the shelves together.

Kenji Hagiwara looked at this scene and was inexplicably moved.

No matter what kind of life they had in the past, now they all gather here peacefully and live a quiet life.

Such a life, perhaps...wasn't it what they once wished for?
