Scissors that cut out cause and effect

, probably because they gave her too strict tutoring that led to her character. "

"After she came that time, she lived for nearly a month. When she was about to be picked up by her parents, I saw her almost crying."

"But I can't keep her here. You know, parents are irreplaceable to children."

Natsume remained silent.

"However, I gave her a puppy later on. Judging from the content of the letters she sent every time, the effect was not bad. Look, this is this one." Grandma Asamori pointed to a photo.

When he was a child, Asamori held a puppy—about a few weeks old, and smiled happily.

"It's cute, isn't it?"

"Well, the puppy is very cute." When asked a question, Natsume finally answered.

Grandma Asamori looked at Natsume angrily: "I'm talking about Asamori!"

Natsume: "..." So you should just shut up and listen obediently?

Grandma Asamori continued to turn the pages.For a long time afterwards, Asamori's photos were all photos with the dog, and there were almost no photos with his parents.

Grandma Asamori saw Natsume's doubts, and said: "Parents Asamori are very busy at work, and they often fly domestically and abroad, and rarely go home. Every time I think of this, I think, at the beginning Shouldn't it be better to keep her?"

Finally, Grandma Asamori found a photo.The Asamori in the photo is not the long hair now, but short shoulder-length hair. If you want to say, it looks like the hairstyle of the monster who has been sitting over there.

What attracted Natsume's attention the most was not Asamori's different hairstyle from now, but...a monster standing behind that dog!

The author has something to say:

21

21. Asamori X grandmother...

The monster in the photo has long black hair that is going to the polar region, and half of his face is covered by a white cloth, making it impossible to see his face clearly. Due to the size of the photo, Natsume can't see clearly what is written on the white cloth, only a blurred piece.He was wearing a black kimono.There are many dark red patterns on the edge of the kimono.

Obviously the previous photos were fine, but starting from this one, as long as the following photos are photos with the dog, there will be that monster.

At some point, Mr. Cat, who had been lying on the side with his eyes closed and motionless, opened his eyes, came to Natsume and Grandma Asamori, and took a picture of the monster with one paw.

"Nyanaynaynaynayn—!" It's this breath, from that guy Asamori!

The cat teacher said to Natsume like this, but to people who couldn't see the youkai, it was just the cat teacher's continuous barking.

"Hey, is this cat interested in this photo?" Grandma Asamori expressed her curiosity.

"Probably... just curious about the photos." Natsume explained weakly.

Grandma Asamori continued to turn back, and then, Natsume found that, at some point, the dog and the monster were no longer in the photo.

what happened?

Natsume wanted to ask, but felt that this might arouse the other party's suspicion.Fortunately, Grandma Asamori spoke on her own.

"However, the life of a dog is not as long as that of a human, and the time of parting has finally come. I just didn't expect that in Kintaro, oh, that's the name of this dog. An angry look. In fact, only when facing Kintaro, Asamori will be a little bit energetic in line with her age, but it's a pity... Kintaro can no longer accompany her. "

"|Of course, after that, I also gave her a puppy, but she rejected it and gave it to someone else. Time also had a serious illness. Asamori was worried that I would continue to live alone, so he transferred to take care of me."

...Is this the reason why Asamori changed schools in the middle of the semester?

"nyanaynaynayn!"

Teacher Cat's cry interrupted Grandma Asamori's thoughts of continuing.

Asamori is right behind!

This is the message Mr. Cat wants to convey.

Although Grandma Asamori couldn't understand, Natsume could still understand.After being informed by Mr. Cat, Natsume immediately turned around and saw Asamori who appeared in the courtyard with everyone.

It seemed that they had just come here and didn't hear what they were talking about.

Grandma Asamori also followed Natsume's gaze, and naturally saw Asamori.

Natsume didn't know what the reason was for Grandma Asamori. In short, after discovering Asamori, Grandma Asamori continued to talk to Natsume, but the content was completely different.

"Look, look! Is Asamori cute at this time!?" At some point, the photo album in Grandma Asamori's hand turned back to when Asamori was young, and she pointed to one of them and used it at Natsume. The tone said.

"Well...it's cute."

Natsume could only answer the question from Grandma Asamori.

"What what? What are you looking at?" Nishimura and the others heard that some topics that might be about Asamori were being discussed here, and they were not afraid that Grandma Asamori had a bad attitude towards them just now, so they all wanted to come over.

Asamori snatched the picture album from his grandmother one step ahead of time.

really!

Seeing this album, Asamori could be regarded as expected, but felt a little helpless.Her grandmother has some strange hobbies.For example, every time a guest comes to the house, I especially like to show the photo album with all the photos of Asamori to the guest.

Another example——

"I still have a lot of photos here~" Grandma Asamori took out a thick stack of photos from the sleeve of her kimono, and visually judged that they were all copies of the photos in the album.The person who was a little disappointed because Asamori took away the album in one step, became excited again in an instant.

——Good job, Grandma Asamori!

Asamori can take away this photo album, but can't take away the stack of photos, because Asamori knows that her grandmother has countless such photos in various places that she can't find.

Grandma likes to develop dozens of her photos and put them on display.

Also like——

"If you like, you can pick some and take them away~"

"Wow wow!" Nishimura was the first person to sigh like this.I am so lucky to be able to come to Asamori's house today!

And here, Asamori has already covered his face and leaned against the wall for self-hypnosis without image.

These hobbies of grandma are really weird——

Who likes their grandmother randomly giving photos to others! ?Even so, I still have to worry about whether others will accept it!

Also because of my grandmother's hobby, the old people in the town who often visit my grandmother's house probably have a photo album of Asamori.

This kind of thing... Asamori was very helpless.

But now, Asamori's classmates, Sasada, Nishimura, and Kitamoto are all actively surrounding her grandmother. Even Tanuma, who just met Asamori today, squeezed past her out of curiosity.Only Natsume was still very calm, because Grandma Asamori stuffed a photo in his hand long ago, and it was the one that Mr. Cat took a paw on.

Grandma Asamori really has good eyesight and speed.I don't know how I found this photo so quickly and accurately in that stack of photos.

Natsume didn't expect that it might be the one randomly picked up by Asamori's grandmother, and it happened to be the one he had paid attention to.

Everyone gathered together to look at various photos of Asamori, and wanted any of them, but Grandma Asamori spoke, and one person could only choose one.

Natsume has already been directly stuffed by Asamori's grandmother, so he does not have the right to continue to choose.Natsume looked back at Asamori, and found that the other party was kneeling and sitting in a row with the monster in kimono, as if he didn't care much about the situation here.

Of course Asamori cares!It's just that she also knows that she can't stop her grandmother. What's more, the current situation has avoided the embarrassing situation that may always appear in the future.As a result, Asamori sat on the sidelines and watched with ease.

This scene continued until dinner time.

After dinner was ready, Asamori would call everyone over.

Natsume counted the number of bowls and chopsticks, and found that there was an extra serving.Obviously, that share does not belong to Mr. Cat.Because there is a plate on the ground beside the dining table, it is obvious at a glance that it is prepared for Mr. Cat.

When a group of people came over, Asamori was filling a bowl with food, almost filling the bowl.After that, he put the bowl outside the door, which happened to be the courtyard.

"What is that doing?" Natsume asked curiously.

Grandma Asamori replied, "Ah... that's for stray cats or dogs here."

Is it really?Natsume looked curiously.

Asamori put the bowl away and returned to the room, closing the door behind him.The door was still made of paper, and it was bright outside, so the paper door couldn't block Natsume's sight at all.He saw the monster that didn't come in together, stretched out his hand to take the food, and put it in his mouth.

Not a stray cat or dog at all.

Natsume was stunned for a moment.He didn't notice even when everyone was seated, and finally it was Grandma Asamori who woke him up.

"What's wrong, Natsume? Is there something in there?"

Natsume came back to his senses: "No... nothing."

"Then let's start, the food won't taste good when it's cold."

So far, Natsume didn't look outside until the end of dinner.

Everyone was very happy with the meal.For Nishimura and Kitamoto, it was simply satisfying their desire to eat the food made by Asamori himself, while the squad leader was taking a bite of the food, so he wanted to ask Asamori how it was made,
