【Puppy】Maske

Yaohu failed to sleep until dawn as he wished, and the wind blew up in the middle of the night, and the windows on the top floor slammed.The demon fox woke up with a start, and when he opened his eyes, he felt swollen and painful.

"Damn." He cursed softly, remembering that he forgot to take off his contact lenses and fell asleep.

I got up and went to the bathroom, and threw the contact lenses directly into the trash can, because I wouldn't need them tomorrow anyway.The feeling of the eyedrops dripping into the eye sockets was too cool, and the demon fox who was still a little sleepy suddenly became sober.

Simply no longer sleep.Lazily stepping barefoot on the wooden floor, he turned to the kitchen on the way from the bedroom to the living room. He remembered that there were still a few cans of beer in the refrigerator.

He walked to the living room with a can of beer, only turned on a floor lamp, threw the cover off the sofa and threw it at his feet, and the demon fox lay on the sofa and turned on the TV.The shows in the middle of the night are always boring, and the demon fox is not in the mood to really watch TV. The remote control board is in his hand and keeps changing the channel. The omega's coquettish moans on the adult channel that he accidentally switched to make the remote control board in his hand drop directly. to the carpet.Yaohu picked it up and turned off the TV.But for a few minutes, it felt like a long-lost silence.

He looked at the halo of the floor lamp reflected on the ground, thinking and reading, it was all big tengu.

They are clearly in the same city, but he doesn't know where the big tengu is now and who he is with.He finally reaped the consequences of himself, and he could not blame others.Yaohu opened the old mobile phone that he took out just now, it was still a button style, and a large part of the paint on the up and down buttons and the confirmation button had been worn off.

Pictures, music, movies, everything that used to exist in this phone has been deleted, except for the text messages with one person.Yaohu took a sip of beer, with some foam on the corner of his mouth, and opened the text message record. The contact person's name was "wife", and Yaohu smiled at those two words.

There are too many text messages, and it takes a long time just to scroll to the top.This text message record is missing the earliest part, on that part of Yaohu's first mobile phone, and that mobile phone was dropped in an alley-on the day when the hero saved "Mei".In the current record, the top line is what he sent to Datengu. There is no greeting, no title, just a sentence "Do you know how to do the third question on page [-]?" Yaohu smiled and continued to read.

The topic of studying like this lasted for nearly three months before extending to a more personal topic, "Why did you come to Sunlight?" Yaohu remembered that night, when he heard a lot of gossip about Ootengu at school during the day, He couldn't convince people with reasoning, after all, he didn't know the reason why Otengu lived alone in Sunlight, so he could only beat up the group of people severely.After discussing the exercises as usual in the evening, I couldn't help but ask the big tengu.But it's not like getting a clear answer like before.

"Good night." This was the answer of the big tengu, and then another message was delivered, "You don't want to fight, I have my own measure."

The demon fox replied good night.

That night, he officially entered the sphere of influence of the big tengu.

Yaohu's reading speed is very fast, but it takes a long time to read each text message with a few numbers.He claims to have a good memory, but there are still many things he has forgotten.The subsequent text messages are not as frequent as before. Yaohu remembers that emails became popular at that time.Only the fixed daily morning and evening greetings will be sent by text message, but there is still a period of time in the middle of the blank, Yaohu thought about it and suddenly laughed.That was when Ootengu made his first omega girlfriend.Datengu actually sent himself good morning and evening messages, but he made a fuss without realizing it at the time, so he deleted them all and pretended not to receive them.

After reading all the text messages, Yaohu twisted her neck, only to realize that white light had come in through the curtains, she was covered with a blanket, and there were several empty beer cans squeezed into strange shapes beside the sofa.The last text message he sent to Datengu, "Thank you, I like the gift very much." It was when he graduated from high school, Datengu gave him a new mobile phone, and Datengu said he bought it with the money he earned from part-time work , after which the phone was put on hold.But it is a pity that the mobile phone was lost when he was chasing the gangsters.Yaohu still remembers the scene when he went to Datengu to apologize, "As long as people are fine."

With only one battery left, Yaohu took out the battery and put it aside.I took the trash can, the cigarettes that were thrown under the coffee table at some time, and some oily ZIPPOs.Getting up and walking to the balcony, Yaohu lit a cigarette, he hadn't smoked for a long time.Yaohu started smoking after working. Being a policeman is a very strange profession, because he wants to pursue justice and enter the profession, but gradually he can no longer distinguish what is justice and what is evil.He has seen wives who killed their husbands to protect their daughters, hooligans who committed crimes for their friends, and elites who killed people for family property... Yaohu sometimes envies the big tengu, obviously he is a mafia organization, righteous That set seems to have always been clearly distinguished.Big Tengu doesn't like him smoking, so he smokes secretly, obsessed with the feeling of being lightened by the smoke.

Holding the cigarette between his slender fingers, Yaohu took a deep drag.Throwing the mobile phone with the battery removed, and pouring all the oil left in the Zippo into the empty trash can.The demon fox took another sip, it was indeed too long since he had taken a sip, and he coughed a few times due to choking.The smoke was half burned, and the demon fox took one last look at the trash can and threw the smoke into it.

The doorbell rang, followed by a fierce knock on the door, and the little thoughts that Yaohu had just had were suppressed again.

Opening the door, it was the landlady's aunt, who was obviously relieved to see Yaohu, "Mr. Yaohu, are you okay? I saw smoke coming from your side on the balcony next door."

Yaohu smiled and shook his head, "Sorry for worrying you." He looked back at his balcony where the smoke was still coming out, "I'm just dealing with something."

Thinking of his occupation, the aunt showed a clear expression, "It's good to burn, the fire will burn the cleanest. But remember to clean up the garbage."

Yaohu exchanged a few more pleasantries and finally sent the aunt away.Looking at the clock, it is 07:30, and there seems to be a smell of smoke on the body. Yaohu took a shower, changed into new clothes, looked at himself in the mirror when he was arranging his clothes, and after thinking about it, he took out a new pair of invisible clothes Wear glasses to hide the redness of your eyes.

Big Tengu didn't sleep all night.A whole bottle of tequila should have lulled his nerves, but instead he felt more awake.He has been sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the already sparse lights dwindle until they disappear completely, leaving only darkness.Light up one by one, and the twilight of the sunrise.

Big Tengu thought it was time to get up, only to realize that his body had been in the same posture for too long, and he felt sore and numb when he moved a little, and there was a slight soreness from his fingertips to the bottom of his heart.But he couldn't stay still, he had to endure the pain and stand up.

The demon fox was brought back last night by Seimei, and it was too expensive to take a taxi in Tokyo, so he had to squeeze into the rush-hour tram.Most of the people around are office workers looking at their mobile phones with serious expressions. Occasionally, there is laughter, and there are students standing in twos and threes to share interesting stories.Yaohu suddenly felt very relaxed. These days, he either stayed with the team members and the big tengu and was stuck in the case, or he was alone.He likes to be alone, but he can't accept the pressure of being isolated for a long time.

Yaohu swiped his card straight to enter the office of the eight hundred monks.This can be regarded as a special privilege for being a disciple of Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni - you can come here anytime to have a cup of high-quality coffee that is not available in the downstairs office.When Yaohu was ready to leave contentedly with coffee, he happened to meet the eight hundred bhikkuni who pushed the door open.

"Teacher." Yaohu greeted her.

Eight hundred bhikkuni looked at the person who had grown up under his nose, and showed a relaxed smile, "If you want to, just work hard."

Yaohu nodded, and shook the coffee cup in his hand at her, "For the coffee, I will solve the case as soon as possible and come back to Tokyo."

Eight Hundred Bhikkuni suppressed her smile, looked at the locked office door, sat down in her seat, and said to Yaohu, "I had a video conference with Interpol yesterday morning."

Yaohu knows how hard his teacher is at work, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the highest position in the police force at this age.

"They denied our conjecture," said Yabaichuni, "and insisted that the Yamabuki plan had not been leaked, and that the munitions had been properly disposed of."

The demon fox came back and sat down opposite the eight hundred bhikkuni.

"But I'm pretty sure they're lying." Babaichuni said again, the demon fox's expression became serious, listening to Babaichuni's analysis, "I have a background in psychology, and their small movements can't hide from my eyes. "

"Then my previous thoughts are probably correct, at least to a degree." Yaohu said.

"You have to be careful." Eight hundred bhikkhuni replied, "I still remember that you left three years ago and asked me what justice is. I didn't answer you at that time. But Yaohu, let me tell you now, for me, the cherished person is alive It's justice. So, even if the case is not solved, it doesn't matter, you don't want me to get into trouble. "

Yaohu laughed, "This is different from what you said in the interview."

"Let's go out." Eight hundred bhikkhuni said.

They returned to Tokyo in a hurry yesterday, and many procedures and paperwork were not signed. When Yaohu ran up and down to get everything done and returned to the conference room yesterday, it was already past 09:30, and the team members had already arrived.Didn't see Ootengu, nor his laptop, backpack, or any sign of his presence.Yaohu thought that he probably wouldn't come, and what he said last night about finding the murderer was probably out of anger.

Yaohu breathed a sigh of relief that he didn't have to face the big tengu immediately.He also felt a breath stuck in his throat, unable to rise or fall, so that when he answered Yingcao's question, his voice was a little choked.

"Did you catch a cold?" Yingcao asked after seeing Yaohu's signature on the report.

"It's just that I didn't sleep well last night."

Yingcao said "Oh", and left with the report. After a while, she brought over a box of mints.The demon fox took one in its mouth, but it was cold and refreshing, but it still couldn't swallow the breath.

The door of the meeting room was pushed open, and Yaohu thought it was the girl who had just gone downstairs.But I heard the sound of clogs, and the sound of something scratching the ground.He raised his head and found that it was the Snow Maiden and Demon Sword Fairy who were supposed to be still in the sun.

Yaohu looked at the long knife that Yaodao Ji was carrying, and thought about whether the security of the Metropolitan Police Department was still too lax.

Not long after the two came in, Gu Huo Niao returned after him, his eyes rested on Yaodao Ji's long knife for a while, nodded and returned to his position.

"Ootengu-sama has something to do, so let's bring this here." It was Yuki who was standing in front who spoke, and Ootengu was not there, she was very different from the tenderness I saw before.With the coldness of being thousands of miles away, what was taken out of the traditional kimono was a USB flash drive. There was a small pendant hanging beside the USB drive. The demon fox habitually observed the pendant, which was made of a crystal. The little snowflakes are attached to a mini mask.He remembered this mask, which was exactly the same as the one that Snow Maiden wore last time.But he is not a gossip person, and he has no intention of exploring other people's privacy.

Yaohu took the USB flash drive and plugged it into the computer in front of him for work.

"If you don't mind, please let me operate it." Xue Nu said, "It's an encrypted file."

Yaohu watched Xue Nu's hands flying on the keyboard, and a bunch of pages and codes that he couldn't understand appeared on the computer screen.Xuenv was doing her job with ease, and it didn't take her too much time to decipher.

It is a video, the video is not long, only ten seconds long.

"I can't tell you the source of this video, and I hope the police will not pursue the content of the video." Xuenv said, Yaohu looked at the video in front of her, and judging from the angle of view and the constantly shaking picture, it should be someone put it in the bag taking pictures.Looking at the surrounding environment, this should be a market. The protagonists of the video are several men in black clothes. Their voices can be heard arguing, and the surroundings become quiet because of their presence.Reminiscent of what Xuenv said before, Yaohu speculates that it is probably related to the Tianyu group.But it wasn't this dispute that Xue Nu wanted them to see.She zoomed the video to the maximum, so that the picture became a little blurry, and pointed to the upper right corner, where there was a tall and bloated man in a white cloak.The man only appeared for a few seconds before disappearing

"In this way, you may not recognize it." Xuenv turned her head to look at Yaohu, and switched to another software, which was an audio processing software. "I extracted a piece of audio."

Xuenv started to play that audio, which was specially processed and slowed down. It was no longer the sound of the previous quarrel. If you listen carefully, you can hear a very strange sound, which is not like the sound of everyday speech.Except for Yingcao who was still busy reporting, everyone else gathered around the computer at this moment, but they had no clue.

Xuenv was about to continue talking about her discovery when she saw Yaohu frowned, "Is this a signal from the underworld?" Yaohu knew more about the underworld than the rest of the police, and he knew that there was a special communication tool inside the underworld.

Xue Nu was a little surprised that he knew it, but she continued, "We have checked with the underworld."

"So, the remaining sickle weasel is indeed alive," Guhuo Niao said.

Yaohu nodded affirmatively, "And since he will use this method of contact, I think he may not know that he is the only one left among the three brothers."

Yan Yanluo continued along his train of thought, "That is to say, after the first sickle weasel was killed, the other two sickle weasels acted separately."

Gu Huo Niao shook her head, "It doesn't necessarily mean that they started to act separately from then on."

Yaohu agrees with Guhuobiao, "The people in the underworld told me before that the three brothers of the sickle and itachi almost never act separately. You have seen the dead body of the sickle and itachi, and you should know that they are very small in appearance. The reason why they can become The famous killer relies on the cooperation between the three. I don't think they will separate if they don't have to, even if they find out that their brother is dead and they themselves are hunted down."

"In any case, this sickle weasel has a high chance of conforming." The hair-eating ghost said, and asked the demon fox again, "Sir, shall we set out to hunt him down now?"

Yaohu looked at Xue Nu, the video was not clear enough, unless Xue Nu and the others told him, it would be difficult to judge the location of the video.

It was Yaodao Ji who spoke, "I can tell you the location of the shooting, but it's useless. This video was shot several days ago, and we only discovered the relationship between this video and Kama Itachi yesterday. Immediately sent Tian Yu The people over there searched around. We are sure that he has left that small town. He left in an illegally operated bus. According to the driver, he got off in the wilderness halfway. We have not found him yet. where."

The demon fox was deep in thought, and it was good news for them that Kamaitachi was indeed alive.Just as he thought before, the Tianyu team has an advantage over the police in finding people. After all, the police rely on the monitoring laid on the national traffic network to find people, and for killers like Kamaitachi and the others, they have to escape the police. It is not difficult to track down.Yao Dao Ji's statement is trustworthy, there is no need to investigate there.Where will Kamaitachi go now?He might just be heading to the next meeting point in the underworld now, or maybe he's a true random escape right now.If it is the second possibility, the demon fox and the others can only hope that the weasel will be found somewhere. If it is the first possibility, they can try to find the strongholds they used, but it will take a lot of time And the police force, but also worry about scaring the snake, let the killer use them to find the weasel.

Yaohu recalled the legend about Kamaitachi that he saw when he was a child. Kamaitachi was often called the God of Disaster and brought disaster to others. What did they know that brought disaster to themselves?

The demon fox made up his mind and said, "We want to spread the news of the death of the sickle weasel."

The hair-eating ghost was a little puzzled, "But this case has been kept secret until now, will the higher-ups agree?"

Yan Yanluo tapped his younger brother on the head with the pipe he had been holding, "Idiot," and looked at Xue Nu who was still sitting in front of the computer and Yao Dao Ji who had been standing, "Then I will trouble you."

Xue Nu's expression was a bit complicated, the demon fox was more powerful than she imagined.Yaodao Ji nodded, knowing what they meant, "We will get it done as soon as possible."

Yaohu breathed a sigh of relief, "Now, just wait for him to come to us." He believes that Kamaitachi is not stupid, and will realize that they are the only ones who can keep him safe and even have a chance to avenge his brothers .

Xue Nu and Yao Dao Ji are about to leave.Yao Dao Ji was suddenly stopped by Gu Huo Niao, "What's the matter?" she asked Gu Huo Niao in puzzlement.

Gu Huo Niao looked at her knife, "Let's have a competition when the case is over." He pointed to the umbrella sword that was placed beside the table.

"Let's talk about it later." After Yaodao Ji finished speaking, she followed Xue Nu who was walking in front.

Yaohu didn't keep that video, but let Xue Nu and the others take it away. The power of the police station has never been pure, and maybe it's safer to stay in the Tianyu team.

Looking at his watch, it was time for dinner before he knew it. He looked at the other people working hard in the conference room, and thought that he hadn't invited his team members to dinner yet. Difficult task.

How crowded is the convenience store located in the city center and meeting the meal time?It took police officer Yaohu 10 minutes to buy the meal and was squeezed out.I accidentally stepped on the foot of the person who was walking towards me.

"I'm sorry." Yaohu quickly apologized, "I'm very sorry."

"It's okay." A familiar voice.

Yaohu didn't know for a moment whether it was the other party's unlucky or his own unlucky.

Why is it a big tengu again?

The two walked towards the police station in silence.Wordlessly walked into the gate of the police station, wordlessly pressed the elevator button, wordlessly waited for the people in the elevator to file out, and walked in together again.

There were only two people in the elevator, Yaohu and Datengu each occupied a corner, the bento in their hands was still emitting heat, but Yaohu's palm was faintly cold.

This can no longer be the case.Both of them had the same thought in their hearts.

Almost at the same time, they took a step forward and pressed the emergency pause button.The hands touched briefly, then parted again.On the screen of the elevator, there was still an upward symbol, and it stopped between the fourth and fifth floors.

"I respect your choice to separate." Yaohu said before the big tengu, "Thank you for your assistance to the police all the time. This case is very dangerous. You don't have to meddle in it for revenge. I suggest you quit now." His expression was serious, the same as usual, as if he had really let go.The fingers are getting colder and colder, and on the contrary, the heartbeat is getting faster and faster.Yaohu unconsciously bit his lower lip again, waiting for the big tengu's reaction.

"I see." Daitengu's expression didn't change in any way, neither agreed to nor rejected his proposal, nor said what he wanted to say.Reach out and press the restore button.The elevator finally reached the fifth floor and continued upward.

After arriving at their floor, Daitengu took the lead to go out.

When reaching out to grab the sleeve of the big tengu, the only thing that appeared in Yaohu's mind was the outdated catchphrase "the body is more honest than the mouth".

Daitengu didn't wear casual clothes today, but a formal shirt. The cufflinks made of blue crystals complemented his eyes. He was caught by the demon fox, and the sharp-edged gemstones brought a sense of reality.

Daitengu, who hadn't walked out of the elevator door, turned around and looked at him with some puzzlement.

The opened elevator door slowly closed behind him, Yaohu quickly let go of the door and reopened the door.Turning around, I met Ootengu's thoughtful gaze.

"I..." Yaohu didn't know how to explain his behavior just now.

"Find me in the parking lot after get off work." Big Tengu said to him suddenly, turned and walked out of the elevator without waiting for Yaohu's answer.Yaohu entered the conference room one after another behind him.

Distribute food to everyone.

Yingcao looked at the rice ball with the mayonnaise squeezed out and wanted to cry.

"Sorry, there were too many people in the convenience store just now." Yaohu said, embarrassed to say that he was nervous and crushed.While participating in the discussion among the crowd, Yaohu's peripheral vision kept falling on Otengu.After hesitating for a while, I still haven't passed.

The time on the wall clock only pointed to one.For the first time, Yaohu felt that the police station got off work too late.

Ootengu didn't stay in the meeting room for long before leaving.In the beginning, Yaohu couldn't concentrate on his work at all, and would glance at the wall clock almost every ten minutes.

"Mr. Fox, what's the matter?" It was Guhuo Niao who came to sign the document, "You seem very anxious."

"Ah, no." Yaohu denied, but the pen drew a strange arc on the paper, "Sorry."

It took another half an hour to enter the work mode, and when I looked up, I realized that it was already past the off-duty time.It was past eight o'clock, but for a group of workaholics, Yaohu was still the first to leave.

The big tengu's car was still parked at the same position as last night.Thinking of what happened yesterday, Yaohu grabbed the edge of the pocket with his hand in his pocket.Then walk quickly in that direction.

The car door was not locked, and when Yaohu opened the co-pilot's door, he heard a familiar song pouring out, amplified infinitely in the empty and quiet parking lot late at night.

Tokyo Love Story fits well with where it is now.Oda Kazumasa's singing is a bit intermittent, which is a unique feature of the radio station.Big Tengu reached out to turn off the radio, and said to Yaohu, "Get in the car."

Yaohu got into the car obediently, sitting with his legs together, waiting for the big dog to say something.

The big tengu didn't look at him anymore, and started the car.

"seat belt."

"Ah?" Yaohu didn't react for a while.

Big Tengu finally turned his head to look at him, "I said fasten your seat belt."

"Oh." Yaohu fastened his seat belt, and kept telling himself in his heart to be calm, to be calm.While taking a deep breath.

"Are you hypoxic again?" Big Tengu asked, the car had already driven out of the garage, Big Tengu opened the window, and the cool night wind hit, making people more awake.

"No." The demon fox shook his head.

The big tengu stopped talking.He didn't tell Yaohu where he was going to take him, and turned on the radio again, but it was no longer the singing of Oda Kazumasa, but a girl singing softly, and Yaohu couldn't tell whose voice it was, guessing it was probably a new singer .

There was another silence all the way, Yaohu looked at the city where he had stayed for many years.Familiar roads, the latest cosmetics are shown on the ever-changing giant billboards.From the corner of the eye, he kept watching the side face of Ootengu who was concentrating on driving.Unable to guess his intentions, in the few free time in the past few days, Yaohu thought about many possible reactions of the big tengu.And he felt that the most likely thing was to leave.Ootengu did leave when he was in the hospital, but he reappeared in the office.Even though he has learned the identity of Yaohu, he still continues to search for the murderer.Mingming followed him into the bathroom, but he left without saying anything.Now, where and what is he going to take with him?

The fox can't figure it out.But does this mean that he can still have a little hope?

All metropolises have traffic problems, and Tokyo is no exception.It was less than nine o'clock when Yaohu and the others set off, but it was already past ten o'clock when they arrived at the destination.Slow down and drive into the underground parking lot.Only then did the demon fox know where their destination was—Roppongi Hills, one of the most popular places to watch night views in Tokyo.

Yaohu got out of the car, followed behind the big tengu, and slowly moved to the side of the big tengu, keeping a certain distance deliberately so as not to let his shoulder touch the opponent.

Daitengu seems to be no stranger to this place, and bought tickets for the viewing platform.The two waited in line for the elevator to go up like other tourists.

Yaohu came here once, with friends he met in college.He also took a photo and sent it to Ootengu, but he no longer has that photo, but he remembers that the only reply he got was "Why don't you?" , only replied to Datengu "Because I want to take a group photo when I come with you."

They have been together for a long time and there are very few pictures together.Neither of them really like taking pictures, and Yaohu tried to avoid leaving images after he officially became a policeman.There are only three photos of the two of them together that can be found now, primary school graduation photos, junior high school graduation photos, and high school graduation photos.Yaohu remembered that when he took the elementary school photo, he was taller than Otengu, so he stood two rows behind him.By junior high school, two people of similar height had already stood in the same row, but there were still two people in the middle. When they first started dating, they chose to hide from everyone for a while.When it came time to take the high school graduation photo, the big tengu, who had surpassed Yaohu by half his head, stood directly in front of Yaohu. The buttons of his uniform were neatly buttoned, and at the neck, Yaohu reached down to wrap his hands around him.

"It's our time, let's go." Big Tengu's voice came to mind, and Yaohu realized that he was distracted again.They happened to be the last two passengers of this elevator, and they were squeezed by the people behind and were about to stick to the elevator door.The big tengu's arm stretched out at some point, blocking the people behind him for him.

In the past, he actually didn't like the seemingly careful and gentle behavior of Ootengu, such as opening the door for him, taking the initiative to carry heavy objects, or separating him from the crowd like this.Yaohu always felt that the natural behavior of the big tengu in these two people getting along put him in a relatively weak position.Even if he was indeed just a beta at the time, no matter how he trained, it would be difficult to be a stronger beta than Ootengu in any aspect.Every move of the big tengu is constantly reminding him of this fact.

He has never missed those little cares and considerations like he does now.

The elevator stopped on the floor of the viewing platform, and the people behind rushed forward.As a popular scenic spot, it is natural to avoid crowding, so the two wandered around and finally found a relatively quiet corner.Some magazines said that Roppongi is the most suitable place to enjoy the night view of Tokyo Tower, which is true.And farther away, the relatively faint lights are the planes taking off and landing at Narita Airport, and man-made machines fly up and down in the night sky, like fireflies that have not been seen for a long time in the city.

The unique wind of the rainy season especially likes to show off its power in such a late night, and Ootengu's black hair that he hasn't taken care of for a while is blown up.

Yaohu knew that it was absolutely impossible for the big tengu to come here just to watch the night scene, and he didn't know how to speak, so I'm sorry again?Ootengu should have been tired of his sorry.Verbal apologies are like the buzzing of flies to the person who has been hurt, useless and annoying.But he didn't know what else to say, he could only wait, waiting for the big tengu to speak up, just like their occasional quarrels and cold wars in the past.The big tengu always speaks first.

"Same." The big tengu seemed to have seen enough of the night scene, and was finally willing to speak.

"What's the same?"

Daitengu turned around to face the demon fox, behind him was the brightly lit Tokyo.

"It's the same as the photo you sent me at the time."

Yaohu said a little embarrassingly, "I can't remember clearly."

Ootengu took out his mobile phone, and the picture displayed on the screen was indeed exactly the same as the scene in front of him.

"So you see, some things really haven't changed." Big Tengu locked the phone, and the beautiful scenery was replaced by darkness. He looked at the demon fox, "But the relationship between us has indeed changed."

The fox's voice was a bit bitter, "I know."

"You haven't answered my question yet." Big Tengu said, "Why did you choose to hide it? If it was urgent and the task required three years ago, I can understand. But you have been back for three full months, why didn't you tell me?" Before returning from daylight, he always thought that the demon fox had only been hiding from him for a few days, he thought, maybe the demon fox was looking for a suitable opportunity to speak.Three months without work, and a quarter of another year, he has more than 90 days of free time to tell that he is back, but he can go back and forth between Kyoto and Tokyo in one day.However, the fox did not.

Ootengu is really tired, it seems that he has always been the one who took the initiative between them from the very beginning.It was he who confessed that he wanted to be together, it was he who changed from the city where the two were big each other to Tokyo where he went to Tokyo more frequently when Yaohu started to get busy, and he was the first one to reconcile after every quarrel and cold war.It was him who foolishly searched for the murderer for three years, only wanting to avenge Yaohu.

But now, even if Yaohu came back, he had to take the initiative to find out and investigate before Yaohu would admit it.

continue to be together?Big Tengu doesn't know what kind of existence he is in Yaohu's heart.

Yaohu bit his lip, he would subconsciously do this whenever it was difficult to speak.He didn't answer a few hours ago in the hospital, and now he doesn't know how to answer a few hours later.He has to answer, he has to answer.He was especially reluctant to tell about the misunderstanding, but he still said, "Actually, I went to you three years ago, just before accepting this task."

Daitengu looked at him quietly, listening to him continue to explain.

"I don't know if you still remember, we haven't seen each other for a long time at that time. When I went downstairs to you, I met the cherry blossom demon, and she was marked by you at that time."

Big Tengu showed a surprised look, "That's just a temporary mark."

"I know." Yaohu said, "She told me when I took you to the hospital. But that day three years ago, I really thought you marked her, so I didn't go up, and went straight back to Tokyo, just in the car Received that mission."

"Why didn't you ask me then?"

The demon fox did not answer this question.

Big Tengu's tone became cold again, "You don't believe me."

Yaohu looked at him, and for the first time expressed his thoughts completely frankly, he nodded, "I don't know if you felt it, but there were indeed many problems between us at that time. Identity, even gender, the time we met I have less and less contact with you. I was busy with work and promoted. To be honest, I don’t have the confidence that you will not change your mind. I know that my thoughts are too selfish, and I have been holding the heart of being betrayed by you since I came back. I chose to hide it with peace of mind. It wasn't until I learned the truth from the cherry blossom demon that night, and it wasn't until I got along with each other these days that I realized how wrong I was. I was scared, and I decided not to hide it anymore, but I didn't know how to speak .But when I learned that you were going for a DNA test and saw you in the hospital, I realized that I still want to be with you, really want to be with you. Big Tengu, I love you."

Yaohu himself never thought that these three words would be so easy to say.Neither he nor Datengu have ever said the word "love", even if it is the so-called confession, they also said "together".He didn't know what Ootengu was thinking, but it seemed to him that there was always a lack of a right time to say the word.But now, he couldn't think of any other words or syllables that could better express his mood than this word.

He looked at the big tengu, Yaohu couldn't tell whether the expression on his face was disappointment, sadness, anger, or more complicated and entangled emotions.

"I knew my lover was a Beta 18 years ago, and the identity and position will not change in the future. These problems will never disappear, are you sure you want to be with me, it will not be as sudden as it was three years ago Leave without saying goodbye."

"I'm sure." Yaohu's tone was firm and sharp, as serious as when he swore an oath to the police badge to become a policeman.He waited for the big tengu's answer.

"I can't continue to be with you like before." Big Tengu said after a long time.

Yaohu nodded, his heart suddenly sank, and finally waited for the moment of sentencing, and seemed to have calmed down instead.However, the mind only stayed in the peaceful position for a few seconds before continuing to sink, bottomless.

The big tengu hadn't finished speaking.

"But I can't deceive myself. The joy when I learned that you came back to me far outweighed the resentment when I learned that you were hiding it." Ootengu said, "I'm really glad you're back."

Premonitioning what he was going to say next, Yaohu felt his skin start to tremble slightly, and the excitement from the heart made the corners of his lips smile uncontrollably.

The demon fox hugged the big tengu, at the moment he said that sentence.

"Welcome back. Let's get to know each other again."

The demon fox buried his head in the neck of the big tengu, and the tears that had not been seen since the death of his parents wet the top of the big tengu.

"it is good."
