[comprehensive] monster boy

"July——" During the lunch break, Duogui brought Tanuma to Natsume's classroom together. Many students around were already used to it. Although they secretly envied Duogui, in fact, they were just envious and jealous.

"Ah, good afternoon, classmate Duogui." Li Zhui's smiling face made the corners of Duogui's mouth twitch, she approached cautiously, and whispered into Li Zhui's ear, "Didn't you say you want to regain your sense of taste? How do you do it?" Ah, I haven't eaten properly for two days! I'm starving to death!" Natsume and Tanuma looked at Tanuki with a fixed expression, although they didn't say anything, the obvious color of food on their faces showed that they must not have eaten properly in the past two days.

"Hmm..." Li Zhui held his chin in his hand and smiled, looking at them with his eyes bent.It always feels weird to be stared at like this... "July?" Natsume frowned.

"Actually, I thought of a way, which is to chop this guy up and then eat it." The raccoon chased after him and said such words.

All three were a little surprised: "Eat, eat?!"

"Isn't that the same as a monster!?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Natsume categorically rejected the proposal.

Li Zhui touched his chin in distress: "Then... there is no other way."

The little monster in the glass jar was trembling uneasily. Of course, it knew that the raccoon was teasing the group of humans, but when he looked at him thoughtfully, it didn't even think it was a joke...

"Even if I can't recover my sense of taste in the future, I won't eat it." Natsume said.

"But this is not just about you." Li Zhui smiled, he really wanted to tease this gentle boy.

Natsume turned to look at Tanuma and Doko, and Doko nodded seriously and said in agreement with Natsume: "Well, I don't want to eat it, even if I don't have any taste in the future... But! We can definitely think of other ways!"

"Yeah, everything has multiple sides, and we have other ways to think about it." Tanuma reached out and patted Natsume's shoulder to show his determination.

"Tanuma, multitrack..." Natsume looked at the two of them with a complicated expression, smiled gently and said gratefully, "Thank you..."

"Why didn't you eat it? It's a monster, and didn't it steal your sense of taste?" Tanuki tilted his head and looked at Natsume suspiciously.

"Even if it's a monster...but it didn't kill us. I think monsters are no different from people." Natsume said.

Li Zhui lowered his head and chuckled twice: "Humans are no different from monsters, no... Humans are more complex and changeable than monsters."

"Student July, you..." Duogui stood on the side just in time to see the gloomy expression on Li Zhui's face, and when he regained consciousness, Li Zhui's expression was still as gentle as ever.

"Actually communicate with it more, and ask it if there is a way to return the sense of taste to everyone, Natsume, would you like to try it?" Lizui handed the glass jar to Natsume.

Taking the glass jar, Natsume looked up and looked around. Although there was no one in the lunch break classroom, there were a few students who were eating bento in the classroom, and the time was still early.

"Then let's go to the flower bed where we met it earlier."

-

Natsume talked to the youkai in the jar by himself, and after talking for a while, his frowning brows loosened.

"Great! It's willing to give us back the sense of taste!" Natsume breathed out, he really didn't want Doko and Tanuma to lose his sense of taste because of him, he was very guilty and didn't know what to do, so he had already done it just now He decided to use his lifelong sense of taste to exchange with it, as long as it can return the sense of taste to Tanuma and Duogui, he is willing to promise it anything, but this monster's mouth is not strict, on the contrary, it is just a symbolic refusal After a while, he quickly let go, but this little sense of disobedience was ignored by Natsume, so it's fine if it turns out!

The three of them were surrounded by a circle of light. After the light dissipated, Duogui couldn't wait to open the bento and took a bite. He was so happy that he almost shed tears: "Okay, it's delicious!! Thank you mom!! Woooo..." Duogui smashed it while eating Thinking about it.

Natsume and Tanuma looked at each other and took a bite of bento, their expressions were self-evident...

The three of them sat around and devoured the bento. What Natsume thought was that Mr. Cat must be very disappointed. Mr. Cat ate Natsume’s portion of food together during the two days when Natsume lost his sense of taste. A happy life is always gone. Come on, Mr. Kitty is waiting for Natsume to come home for dinner.

After the three of them ate their bento, they realized that Li Zhui had long since disappeared.

"Hey, where is student July?" Duo Gui asked after packing up his lunch box, and the two looked up to see that there was no Li Chai around.

"When did you leave?" Natsume frowned and looked around.

"I haven't thanked him properly yet." Tanuma nodded earnestly.

"Find a chance to thank Qiyue classmate together?" Duogui looked at Natsume with a smile.

"Well, that's it, let's go to the classroom to see if he is there."

————————————————————————————————————————

Lizui stood on the side of the playground, leaning against the mesh fence, and the glowing monster was bobbing up and down in front of Lizui's eyes. Lizui, with his arms folded, smiled and nodded, as if he had received a heavy burden. The monster disappeared in front of Li Zhui at an extremely fast speed.

Natsume who returned to the classroom did not see Tanuki, where did he go?He poked his head out of the window, wanting to see if he could see Li Zhui's figure, but unexpectedly, he actually saw it, just in time to see Qi's figure floating away in front of Li Zhui.

How are they... together?

Natsume, who was thinking about this question, met Rikui's eyes as gentle as water.Wei Wei was stunned for a second, when the wind blew by, her bangs poked her eyeballs and it was a little itchy, and when she raised her hand to rub it and looked again... the raccoon disappeared.

"Beaver—" Natsume leaned forward with too much force, and his whole body leaned out of the window. A girl's scream came from behind him. He closed his eyes and waited for the feeling of falling.

"Natsume?" The expected feeling of falling did not appear, the white shirt collar was being tightly grasped by a person with gentle eyes, and this person was Tanuki who was downstairs a second ago.

"River chasing?!" Natsume blinked, as surprise and uneasiness spread in her heart.

Pulling Natsume up, Tanuki raised his hand to tidy up Natsume's somewhat messy collar.

"Are you alright, Natsume-san?!" Class monitor Jun Sasada rushed forward with a worried expression.

Natsume reluctantly twitched the corners of her mouth, and smiled awkwardly. Looking at the worried eyes of several friends and classmates, she thought that she seemed to be causing trouble to others again.

"It's okay, sorry monitor..."

"It's so careless! How could you lean out of the window?! It's so dangerous! If Qiyue hadn't grabbed you, you would have fallen down long ago!" Sasada Jun said angrily with his hands on his hips.

At this time, Natsume also recalled the reason why he leaned out of the window.

Looking at Rukui with a complicated expression, Natsume only saw tenderness and consideration in his eyes, Lizui's mouth opened and closed, and his good-looking hand gently patted his shoulder.

"Hey Qiyue, were you downstairs in the playground just now?" Natsume finally asked her own question.

"Huh? Isn't it..." Li Zhui replied with an ambiguous smile, his tone was full of doubts.

Pursing his beautiful thin lips, Natsume didn't know how to answer. He was sure that he must not be dazzled, even though Natsume thought that everyone would have a good side... But he couldn't see July, he couldn't see through the gentle and pure person in front of him What was he thinking? Everything he did was full of doubts, and he even felt that the July raccoon chased after a friend.

but……

He helped him time and time again.

"Natsume-san, Natsume-san." Natsume propped his chin and stared at the book in front of him in a daze. The teacher on the stage called him several times but he didn't realize it. The classmate next to him stretched out his hand and patted him before he realized it and stood up immediately. My whole body tensed up: "Yes!"

The teacher didn't act very harshly: "Natsume-san, is there something uncomfortable about you?"

Natsume immediately shook his head: "No, sorry teacher..."

The teacher still wanted to say something concerned, but the school bell rang.

"Cheer up, Natsume-san, everyone, be careful on the way after school."

"Goodbye, teacher!" The students said in unison.

Natsume's two bad friends leaned over and hooked Natsume's shoulders, speaking frivolously, "Did you get scared just now, Natsume? You almost fell!"

"Nishimura, Natsume won't be happy if you say that. It's okay, Natsume. You seem to be in a bad mood today." Kitamoto's tone was a little worried.

"It's okay..." Natsume smiled, and raised his hand to take off the hand on his shoulder: "You guys, go back early, I have some things to leave today."

After speaking, Natsume looked up at the location of Tanuki, and the person was gone.

A little disappointed... Obviously there are still many questions I want to ask.

Walking out of the school alone, at the corner of the intersection, Natsume was patted on the shoulder, and Natsume, who was startled, turned around to see the triumphant smile of Tanuki who had succeeded in a prank.

"Scared you." Li Zhui's tone was full of meaning.

Patting his chest, Natsume nodded: "Ah, I was shocked."

After the two walked together for a while, Natsume asked, "July, didn't you go first? I didn't see you in the classroom."

"I'm going to buy something at the convenience store, and I'll say hello when I see you when I come out."

The two chatted with each other from time to time. In fact, Natsume didn't want to ask these trivial matters, but he wanted to ask. He didn't know how to speak, so he could only walk forward silently with Rikuzui. After that, Natsume As if struggling for a long time, he stood still, turned his head and looked into Li Zhui's eyes, and said, "Jiyue, are you a monster?"
