cat blues

Chapter 173

When the group of people came back after soaking in the hot spring, Yuji Maomao brought in all the coffee and milk placed by the window and distributed them to them one by one. give him.

Yosano Akiko happily drank all the milk in one gulp, and then she asked a question that the cat didn't know how to answer, "Mr. Yukichi, when are you going to take a bath?"

He never expected that it was the girl in front of him who first asked him to take a bath. Yuji's big cat suddenly felt a little numb, and the fur on its back exploded a little.

"Mr. Yukichi, why don't I help you take a bath?" Yosano Akiko suddenly became interested, rubbing his chin and said.

"Meow..." Yuji the big cat hurriedly shook his head. It felt that it should take a bath by itself.

"Oh, don't be like this." Yosano Akiko stretched out his arms to wrap Yukichi Tomomi's shoulders very "brotherly", "My technique is very good."

Big cat Yuji refused without hesitation. It has nothing to do with how good the technique is. It’s impossible for a cat to like to take a bath. It’s fine to wash it for yourself. If other people intervene, it will take a few minutes. The fighting bath that can be finished will become the kind of cat washing that I have seen on TV for a long time, so it doesn't want it.

Yukichi Big Cat thought it would be good if he washed himself a little bit, but it was fine to be "helped" by Akiko Yosano.

Because it is an old-fashioned hot spring hotel, there are three small rooms next to the big room with different doors. The sound insulation between such houses is not very good. Although it has been renovated several times in recent years, the sound insulation effect is still a little lacking , it is naturally inaudible to ordinary people, but it is different for this group of people who have both supernatural powers and learned breathing techniques. They can still hear the movement in the corridor very clearly.

So when Yosano Akiko stretched out his hand to hold the big cat Yukichi again, the door of the Ohiro room was opened abruptly, and a group of young people looked at the big cat Yukichi with shining eyes, and said in unison: "Mr. , let us help you take a shower!"

"Meow? Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! ! When he came, he closed the door very considerately.

"Okay, okay, I used to only watch the president help Mr. Yukichi take a bath when Mr. Yukichi was a little one." Edogawa Ranpo agreed with their thoughts as soon as he opened his mouth, "At that time, Yukichi Mr. Ji only came up to my waist."

"That can't be considered small, right?" Kunikida Doppo said.

"Meow, ow..." Yukichi the big cat quickly shied away, and Fukuzawa Yukichi took out the cat language translator from his backpack, and saw that the big cat meant "I am a long-haired cat, and going to the bathroom to take a bath will cause trouble for others of".

"It's okay, there is an indoor hot spring." Dazai Osamu suddenly rushed out, "As for communicating with the hot spring hotel, you can leave it to me. I have seen it before. I have seen it before. The indoor pool is open every night. The door closes on time at 11 o'clock for cleaning, I can negotiate with the proprietress of the hotel and ask them to lend us the indoor hot spring pool after 11 o'clock."

After he finished speaking, he slipped out like flying, "Wait for my good news——"

He ran so fast that he didn't give Yuji the big cat any time to react, and he ran away without a trace.

"Meow ow ow (wait a minute)!" Yuji Maomao made a movement of Er Kang's hands behind him.

"Okay, it's decided, let's help Mr. Yukichi take a bath together until 11 o'clock!" Yosano Akiko waved decisively.

"Oh!" Kunikida Doppo had just finished answering, and suddenly realized something was wrong, "Wait a minute, we are together... and Ms. Yosano, do you want to help too?"

"Of course, this is for Mr. Yukichi to take a bath, so I must go." Yosano Akiko said decisively, "As for your bodies, don't worry, I'm a doctor. How many general teachers are there, and I won’t take it to heart.”

"That's not the problem!" Kunikida Doppo was rather numb.

On the other side, Big Cat Yuji heard their decision, and immediately fell powerlessly to the ground.

"Mr. Yukichi, don't be depressed, we did this for your own good." Edogawa Ranpo said seriously, "Mr. Yukichi, you always take a shower quickly, right? It's clean, it's rare to come to the hot spring this time, just let us help you wash it well, and then take a bath, it will also be good for your body."

The big cat Yuji looked at the famous detective who opened his emerald green eyes and looked at him. Finally, he could only nod helplessly, and humiliatedly agreed.

"I'm back—" Osamu Dazai suddenly opened the door and walked in at this time, "The proprietress said it's okay, the indoor men's soup after 11 o'clock will be handed over to us, but we need to help them clean up."

"This is what should be done." Fukuzawa Yukichi nodded and said, and then patted the petrified and stiff Yukichi big cat, as if to comfort it.

"Then after dinner, let's go to buy pet shampoo for Mr. Yukichi!" Edogawa said with a wave of his arms.

"There is also a pet brush!" Zhong Yuanzhong also added.

Big Mao Yuji waved his hands again and again, indicating that he had a carry-on bag, and ran to the side of the suitcase on his own initiative, and opened the suitcase for them to see.

Seeing the portable toiletries brought by Big Cat Yukichi, several people in the room looked at each other for a while, and finally said to Yosano Akiko: "No, it's too small. Sure enough, what Mr. Ranpo said is right, I'm going to buy new ones. .”

"Mr. Yukichi, do you want to buy it by yourself or let us help you?" Kunikida Doppo couldn't help but glance over there, and saw the big cat Yukichi squatting in the corner in frustration, obviously not wanting to go out, he pushed Pushing the glasses on his face, "Speaking of which, what brand of pet shampoo Mr. Yuji usually uses?"

"I know, it belongs to NWK. That pet shampoo company is owned by the Atobe Foundation." Edogawa Ranpo said with a smile.

"It's a bit surprising that the Atobe Foundation is still doing this." After all, the first thing that comes to mind when mentioning the Atobe Foundation is the financial industry and electronic information. Kunikida Doppo couldn't help being curious.

"Because most of the domestic real industry has already been divided up by other consortiums." Edogawa Ranpo rolled on the quilt, "So if Atobu wants to master the real industry, he can only go in a less attractive way." Pay attention to the route."

This is a good point. When it comes to big chaebols in Japan, it is indeed a series of old-fashioned chaebols such as Suzuki and Akashi. In terms of banking, metals and real estate, the Suzuki chaebol is unmatched. It firmly controls the domestic automobile, shipbuilding, heavy machinery and other industries, and a series of other large conglomerates such as Shii, Tomizawa, and Suo control almost all industries in Japan.

In front of these giants, Daomingsi, Huaze, Feng and a series of chaebols who have made achievements in a certain aspect seem to be eclipsed by a lot.

However, Atobe, as an emerging chaebol who returned to Japan from the United Kingdom to start war business after the supernatural war, always tends to give people the feeling of nouveau riche in front of an old brand, and because of the lack of real industries, the pure financial industry cannot withstand any storms at all. Coupled with the need to develop the electronics industry in China, it is even more necessary to cooperate with multiple parties.

It is undoubtedly a good choice to use the pet product market as an entry point. The status of pets has been improved a lot before the supernatural war. After the war, people need to be comforted. Pets are undoubtedly good companions. From one point of view, we can confirm how keen the Atobe Zaibatsu is now in charge of the man.

"But I didn't expect that there are so many kinds of brushes for pets." After eating a very typical hot spring meal, the group took a car again to the downtown area of ​​Hakodate. After a famous pet supply store, Kunikida Doppo looked at the pet brushes on the entire wall in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"My guest, this kind of large brush is used to brush the mane of horses." After seeing Kunikida Doppo's face of thinking, he actually stretched out his hand to the large brush over there, the clerk of the pet supply store The lady quickly dissuaded her.

"Ah, thank you for the reminder." Kunikida Doppo reached out and touched the brush part of the big brush, and it was really hard, so he hurriedly put the hard brush back.

"Kunikida, if you want to buy it, you should buy this one." Edogawa ranpo took out a rather big brush with ease, stretched out his hand to rub it, then turned to the clerk and said, "I still want to talk about this and this. "

"Okay..." The clerk immediately led the person to the cashier with a smile on her face.

"Mr. Ranpo, you still took... cat food?" Yosano Akiko looked at the things in Edogawa Ranpo's hand with some curiosity.

"Yes, this is a new product. This is a regional limited product. Mr. Yukichi will be very happy to bring it back." Edogawa said proudly.

After shopping and coming out of the pet supply store, a group of people stood on the cold and windy street. Dazai Osamu looked at Goryokaku in the distance, and couldn't help but said: "Let's go back, we must go to Goryokaku tomorrow. Guo, tomorrow night I will invite Mr. Yuji to watch the night scene together!"

"That's right." Yosano Akiko also nodded, this morning they played wildly all morning, and after sitting in the car for so long in the afternoon, and soaked in the hot spring, they really didn't want to move at night.

It is still a little distance from downtown Hakodate to Yunokawa Onsen, and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening when they came back.

When they entered the door, they saw Fukuzawa Yukichi and Yukichi the big cat sitting in the large room and playing backgammon. It would be really difficult for a cat to learn how to play Go, so Fukuzawa Yukichi said with a good temper. Playing backgammon with the big cat.

Seeing them coming back, Big Cat Yuji suddenly showed a helpless expression, but he still took the initiative to stand up and take the things handed over by Edogawa Ranpo. The big cat who thought it would be a bit heavy found that the bag was actually very light, and suddenly felt a little nervous. When I opened it strangely, I found that it was not pet shampoo, but several bags of pet snacks.

Big Cat Yuji took it out and saw that they were all new products and regional limited products of his favorite pet snack brand. He immediately happily hugged Edogawa Ranpo into his arms, and he almost didn't take this child with him. Going in circles.

"As expected of Mr. Ranpo." Several other people thought in unison.

"However, there are still a few hours before the indoor hot spring pool closes, and we still have to start the... pillow fight!" After changing into the yukata, Edogawa Ranpo finished speaking first, and turned the pillow in his hand towards the Osamu Dazai lost it—he could only lose Osamu Dazai.

"Wow, I didn't expect you, Mr. Ranpo, to be so ignorant of martial arts and make a sneak attack." Dazai Osamu grabbed the pillow in his hand and immediately launched a counterattack. One pillow was thrown straight at Edogawa Ranpo, while the other hand He grabbed his own detective and threw it towards Kunikida Doppo who was beside him.

Kunikida Doppo didn't expect to be the one who suffered at all. Today, I don't know how many times he pushed the glasses on his face. You must know that the slap just now was aimed at his face, and almost knocked off his glasses directly. At this moment, veins were popping out of his forehead.

"Too! Zai!" Kunikida Doppo gritted his teeth and said.

"Hahaha, look at the trick!" Osamu Dazai, who was a complete boy high school biochemical, raised his hand decisively, picked up another pillow and threw it out.

Kunikida was stunned for a moment, and realized that it was Nakahara Chuya who got the trick this time, but it was wrong to say that he got the trick. It should be said that the moment the pillow hit Nakahara Chuya, it was controlled by the opponent's supernatural ability, and then floated in mid-air .

"You green mackerel!" Nakahara also bounced back the pillow that flew in front of him without hesitation, and at the same time, he didn't forget to grab two pillows at the same time and throw them towards him.

Just when Nakaya smashed three pillows into Osamu Dazai quickly, another pillow flew towards him.

"Ah?" Zhong Yuanzhong turned his head impatiently, and saw that the one throwing the pillow over there was actually the big cat Yuji.

"Mr. Yukichi, well done!" Edogawa Ranpo laughed, and threw the pillow in his hand towards Sakunosuke Oda, "Oda, come and play with us too! Pillow fight!"

"Just throw it out?" Oda Sakunosuke asked hesitantly, clutching the pillow in his hand.

"That's right, just throw it out!" Edogawa Ranpo said happily, "Come and play!"

Hearing his words, a group of demons danced wildly in the room, and the pillows of the group flew back and forth in mid-air. Sometimes Nakahara Nakata would even go to intercept a few of them halfway. At this time, Osamu Dazai would go to intercept Hu Zhongya pillow, and then he will be buried all together with other pillows.

Yosano Akiko leaned against the wall with a smile, listening to the laughter of the boys from the other side of the wall behind her, felt that it was much more fun than what was broadcast on the TV in front of her.

Soon, a group of boys played wildly until 10:30. Fukuzawa Yukichi stood up first and coughed. After reminding everyone, they realized that it was getting late. They hurriedly started tidying up the room, throwing things everywhere And yes, the pillows and the futons that were messed up were sorted out one by one.

When Fukuzawa Yukichi was coughing, Osamu Dazai had already run away with the excuse of "I went to the proprietress to borrow the key to the bathhouse".

After the room was cleaned up again, Dazai Osamu appeared at the door leisurely, "Everyone, there is no one in the bath, you can wash the cat. Cough, I was wrong, I can help Mr. Yukichi take a bath."

Osamu Dazai looked at Yukichi big cat with "I knew you were planning to wash the cat" in his eyes, and he called everyone to come with him without any panic.

"Okay, since we're going to take a bath, don't be so reluctant." Yosano Akiko snickered and led people to the indoor hot spring pool. There were few guests along the way. Everyone has returned to their rooms to rest.

When he came to the empty indoor hot spring pool, Osamu Dazai locked the door first, and then took out the staff key of the locker room, "The lady boss said, let us wear the staff's clothes for cleaning, and remember to put them in the laundry basket after washing."

"Okay..." A group of people immediately ran to change into the staff uniforms of the hot spring hotel, and then entered the indoor hot spring area that had been steaming for a day.

Yosano Akiko shook his arms eagerly, then picked up the shower head and looked expectantly at the big cat beside him, "Come on, Mr. Yuji!"

Nakahara Chuya and Kunikida Doppo looked at each other, they stepped forward together and pulled the big cat who wanted to run away from left to right, and walked towards the bathing place, Zhong also didn't forget to comfort his own big cat, " It's alright, we'll be very measured when we fight with Ms. Yosano."

It's not a matter of propriety, but I hate taking a bath!

Yuji Big Cat groaned inwardly.

Edogawa Ranpo contributed his own waterproof shower cap. After putting it on, it just pressed the two ears of Yukichi cat under it to prevent water from entering the cat's ears. "How, will it be sad?"

Big Cat Yuji shook his head. Its ears are always very soft, but they are just pressed down, and it doesn't feel uncomfortable. It turns out that this thing still has such uses, and it can buy one for use in the future.

Ranpo Edogawa nodded in satisfaction, picked up another shower head, and was about to wet Yukichi's fur with Yosano Akiko, but was held back by Fukuzawa Yukichi, Fukuzawa Yukichi tried carefully After the water temperature passed, he handed him the shower head in his hand, "Be careful, the cat's fur is also easy to be burned."

"Thank you, President!" Edogawa Ranpo quickly thanked, "Mr. Yukichi, I'm here too."

Watching the children carefully wet Yukichi's fur with water, Yukichi's eyes soon changed from "I refuse" to "It's all up to you", Fukuzawa Yukichi couldn't help but I laughed heartily.

Kunikida Doppo and Nakahara Naka also saw the big cat was drenched from head to toe, and the originally thick hair was tightly attached to the body, and they also wanted to laugh. Now it has completely turned into a drowned cat, and they don't know. What does it look like in the eyes of human beings at this time.

After thinking about it, they honestly took out the pet shampoo and brush they bought just now, squeezed the shampoo on the brush, and squeezed it a little, and a lot of foam flew out.

"Mr. Yukichi, don't move around." Yosano Akiko reminded, and carefully brushed the pads of Yukichi's big cat with the soft brush in his hand. Yukichi's cat is clearly a cat's claw, but it can be used It's just as incredible as the palm of a human being.

While Yosano Akiko was brushing the four paws of the Yukichi cat, Kunikida Doppo began to help the big cat brush the back, and Edogawa Ranpo thought it was interesting to join in, and the two brushed the cat in unison. A lot of foam was formed on the cat's back very quickly.

Zhongyuan Zhongye simply raised his body with supernatural powers, and then began to wash the big cat's hair.

Seeing that a group of people had a clear division of labor, Oda Sakunosuke, who couldn't find what he should do, simply pulled Osamu Dazai who wanted to be lazy, and really started to clean up in a serious manner.

"Hey, it would be great if Akutagawa-sensei was here at a time like this." After helping to brush the ground for a while, Osamu Dazai couldn't help complaining.

"Indeed, Akutagawa-kun's ability is very useful in cleaning." Oda Sakunosuke nodded in agreement. This ability is indeed very useful. It can do several jobs at the same time like an octopus.

There seems to be something wrong with the pet bath over there. I don’t know if it’s because of using too much pet shampoo. The foam on Yuji’s body becomes more and more, and finally the whole cat is covered by white foam. .Now the Yuji cat sitting on the stool can no longer see that it is actually a black cat. Anyone who looks at it will think that it should be a big white cat, and because of the large amount of foam, it looks even It is bigger than its original figure.

"Pfft, it's super cute." Akiko Yosano couldn't help laughing.

"Look, look, I've got one!" Edogawa Ranpo took off a piece of foam, and showed it to others like a child, "It's so cute!"

"Well, if this continues, even Mr. Yukichi's face will be buried in the foam, wash it off." Kunikida Doppo couldn't help but interrupt the two laughing non-stop.

"Yes, wash it off quickly." Edogawa Ranbu saw that even the big cat's face was about to be buried in the foam, so he said quickly. While speaking, he immediately picked up the shower head on the side and began to wash the big cat. Foam.

Big cat Yuji watched helplessly as a group of children poured water for him in a hurry, and his depressed mood gradually became happy. The big cat sat there motionless, letting them wash off all the foam on their bodies.

"Wow, Yukichi-san, you look really glowing now." Osamu Dazai couldn't help but praised.

This is indeed the case. After such a happy and thorough cleaning, the big cat Yuji is full of energy, and the black fur is dripping with water droplets. Under the light of the evening light, it really gives people a glow Feel.

"After brushing the fur, it's better to take a bath." Nakahara Nakaya said, and he took the big cat to the bath, "It's okay, anyway, we will clean it afterward, and Mr. Yuji too, a little Come and experience the fun of soaking in the hot springs.”

Big Cat Yuji hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

The big cat soaked in the bathtub, even half of the cat's face was immersed in the hot water. It watched a few people playing and cleaning not far away, and suddenly felt that taking a bath was not bad.
