Those years when I was looking for my father in Yokohama

In the wilderness and ridge, at dusk, it happens to be the time to meet the devil.

Then, a child suddenly appeared in the empty place.

If ordinary people saw it, they would probably run away in a hurry after saying something like a monster on the spot.

But Wu Yan and the other three are not ordinary people, facing this child who suddenly appeared, they were more surprised and curious.

After all, when the child appeared silently, the other party had already appeared when they noticed.For Wu Yan and Saiki Kusuo, it was strange that they failed to notice each other's approach in the first place.

The child who appeared suddenly, wearing a half-worn kimono, had half-long black hair with red in it, tied into a small braid behind his head.

He wears sunflower paper earrings on both ears, and has a dark red flame pattern on his left forehead.With a small burden on his back, he looked like he had run away from home.

At this time, the child looked at the three people in front of him, the surrounding trees, and a dazed look on his white and tender face.

——Just now...the one who obviously has a field.

Hearing the other party's heartbeat, Saiki Kusuo suddenly had a bad feeling.

Thinking of the special monsters in this world, Oda Sakunosuke guessed: "Did the monsters bring him?"

"What kind of monster dares to act presumptuously in front of me!" Wu Yan disagreed with this guess.

【You were molested by monsters before...】

Silently complaining, Saiki Kusuo felt a headache: "No, he is just an innocent child who was involved in another world."

【When the demon king absorbed energy before, I felt something was wrong. The reason why this kid suddenly appeared must have something to do with it. 】

"Is it related to us?" Oda Sakunosuke caught the point.

Wu Yan thought for a while: "But we didn't do anything."

Saiki Kusuo approached the child and asked, "What were you doing before?"

The child with flame-like spots on his face looked up at him, obviously doing nothing, but it gave Saiki Kusuo a subtle sense of being seen through.

Tsk, it feels like things are more troublesome.

"I... I'm running." The child said, with a blank face and a hesitant tone: "I saw the field."

— but there is no field here, and there are three strangers.

The child turned his head slightly, and looked at Wu Yan behind Saiki Kusuo.

——It's strange...it's different, it's dark.

"What are you looking at?" Wu Yan looked over sharply, and met the child's gaze.

[I can see that the Demon King is different at a glance, the feeling just now is really not an illusion. 】

But this also means that the child in front of him is in more trouble.

If possible, Saiki Kusuo really wanted to turn around and leave.

But in the end, he still asked blankly: "I'm Saiki Kusuo, what's your name?"

[Forget it, let's find a way to send him back as soon as possible. 】

The child looked at him again, held the straps of the chest burden with both hands, and showed a faint smile at Saiki Kusuo.

"My name is Yuanyi, Jiguo Yuanyi."

——This big brother is a good person.

"This little devil is quite cute."

At some point, Wu Yan who was next to Saiki Kusuo, bent slightly, reached out and poked Yuanyi's white and tender face.

In an instant, the child's soft cheek was poked with a small hole and a red mark by his indiscriminate force, and the person looked at him blankly and stopped smiling.

Wu Yan didn't have the slightest bit of guilt or guilt for bullying a child, and even marveled at it: "So weak!"

Withdrawing his fingers, he thought of Yumeno Kusaku, who was also a cub, and Wu Yan, who had a reference, said affirmatively, "Weaker than Kusaku."

At least when he knocked Kusaku on the head, he could get a soft counterattack (a claw-like brand of supernatural power), but the child in front of him didn't respond at all when he poked his face.

Such a weak kid will die soon!

【...You really should supplement the basic common sense of ordinary people. ] Saiki Kusuo wanted to support his forehead, but it didn't fit his personality, so he could only endure this thought, staring at a pair of dead fish eyes and said: "This is how normal children are. Don't compare it with Yumeno Hisashi."

[Just like ordinary people and superpowers, can they be the same? 】

Wu Yan didn't understand the difference: "But they are all children."

Both are human cubs, both weak and weak, is there any difference?

【It doesn't make any sense with the Demon King at all. ] Saiki Kusuo calmly commented: 【No matter how realistic the human skin is, it is not a real person after all. It does not understand the human heart at all. It is just a simple and rude classification of human beings, arrogant and arrogant. 】

[It is because of this that I can't let go of my heart. I always feel that the devil will suddenly turn black at some point. 】

After the evaluation, Saiki Kusuo suddenly felt that there was a long way to go and that the future was bleak.

Oda Sakunosuke was completely ignorant of Saiki Kusuo's distress and worries. He noticed Enichi's dusty appearance, so he picked up the little fruit platter left on the mat and got up.

He squatted in front of the child with a red mark on his face, holding a plastic dinner plate and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Enichi looked at the sweet and brightly colored fruits in front of him, looked up at Oda Sakunosuke, and nodded embarrassedly.

Seeing this, without waiting for the child to reach out, Oda Sakunosuke picked up a small piece of red watermelon with a small fork, and handed it to Enichi's mouth in a natural manner.

"...Thank you." Yuan opened his mouth and took a mouthful of watermelon, the sweet juice exploded on the tip of his tongue, which made him relax.

"I'm hungry, let's eat here."

Wu Yan is not a devil who thinks that the weak must die. Seeing that the two friends are interested in this little devil, in order to blend in with them, he learns from them to show kindness.

Anyway, it's just a kid, not a threat at all.

Greeting the two and one child back to the mat under the tree, Wu Yan took out some food and water to feed the child well.

After a meal of feeding, Yuanyi confirmed that the three people in front of him were not malicious, so he relaxed, and he answered whatever Saiki Kusuo asked.

In addition to the previous question, Saiki Kusuo asked where his family lived, and planned to send him back.

Xiao Yuanyi replied that he could not go home, his mother passed away, and his father asked him to go to the temple to become a monk, but he didn't want to go to the temple, so he sneaked out and accidentally came here.

Wu Yan asked strangely: "Why didn't your father let you go home, but asked you to go to a temple to become a monk?"

Saiki Kusuo and Oda Sakunosuke understood what Enichi meant.

Regarding becoming a monk, in ancient Japan, in order to prevent status struggles between family brothers, nobles usually chose to send their second sons, bastards, or illegitimate sons of some important people to temples to become monks.

The Yuanyi in front of him is very likely to be like this.

Oda Sakunosuke explained something to the puzzled Wu Yan, and Saiki Kusuo continued to think about Enichi.

Because Yuanyi is going to be sent to become a monk, then he doesn't have to send him home, but it's better to send him to the temple where he's going.

But the problem was that the child in front of him not only didn't want to go to the temple, but also accidentally ran to another world because of it... This is also a kind of ability.

After thinking about it, it was basically confirmed that the other party was not the native of this world, Saiki Kusuo, and finally decided to have a showdown with Yuanyi: "You accidentally crossed the world while running. This is not your world, and you can't go back for the time being."

Hearing this, Yuan Yi suddenly raised his head to look at him, as if he couldn't believe it.

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help asking for the child: "It's only temporary, there should be a way to go back?"

Saiki Kusuo remained expressionless: "Of course."

[An important person from another world appears in one world, no matter how you look at it, it is a sign that the world is about to merge.It was only when I suddenly arrived in a world with supernatural powers everywhere that I realized that the world was going to merge. 】

Thinking of the world fusion phenomenon he had experienced before, Saiki Kusuo put aside his speculation about world fusion, and said truthfully: "Just wait."

If the fusion is successful, the child's memory will naturally be modified reasonably by the world.If the fusion fails... just think about it, maybe it will succeed.

The child breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "How long do I have to wait?"

"...It depends on the situation." Saiki Kusuo is not sure about this kind of thing, after all, it is the world that is fused and not him.

As soon as this answer came out, the child was obviously lost.

I don't know when he will be able to go back... Will he still be able to see his elder brother in the future?

"I don't think it will take long." Wu Yan suddenly said, successfully attracting attention to him.

Only then did he unhurriedly explain the reason: "Without the corresponding ability, the world is not something you can wear whenever you want. Ordinary people will not die but will also be injured when encountering such a thing. You have to pay some price."

Just like when he first arrived in Yokohama, although he doesn't remember how he got there, but judging from his weakness at that time, he was so weak that he was almost about to die, and he must have paid a big price.

Wu Yan looked at Yuan Yi, looked him up and down, and said: "Seeing that you are alive and kicking now, there is nothing wrong with you. I don't believe that no one is protecting you."

Just like he and Oda Sakunosuke can come to this world safely, they are all protected by Xiao Kusu, who has the ability to travel through different worlds.

Looking at Yuan Yi's bewildered and confused face, Wu Yan knew that the other party probably didn't understand.

...Actually, he doesn't really understand it himself, it all depends on that mysterious and mysterious intuition.

Finally, Wu Yan who put on a deep look concluded, "In short, you just have to wait, and you won't be able to wait for long."

——Ghost knows how long it will take, anyway, even if it waits for thirty or fifty years, it is not very long.

【...I almost believed in your evil. 】

Saiki Kusuo, who learned about Wu Yan's entire psychology through telepathy, felt completely at peace, and even wanted to laugh a little.

If he hadn't heard the other party's heartbeat, he would have believed it just based on the demon king's well-founded analysis and calm expression.

Then, he saw Oda Sakunosuke showing a look of understanding, and comforted Enichi next to him: "Don't worry, you will be back soon."

... Apparently he believed it.

Saiki Kusuo was at a loss for words.

Looking at Yuanyi's obviously relaxed face, Saiki Kusuo still didn't expose Wu Yan's words, which he was not sure about, but chose to help the other party.

[Forget it, if the fusion time is too long, at worst, I will find the coordinates of Yuanyi World and send him back... For the reason that the Demon King treats me to coffee jelly every day. 】

The usually arrogant superpower user decisively pinned the reason for his shooting on the coffee jelly.

***

Enichi is just a child who is only seven years old, let alone Saiki Kusuo, even Oda Sakunosuke is worried about him staying alone in this wilderness.

Why not mention Yuanyi's world first, Oda Sakunosuke knows that there are monsters in this world, and he just saw a living one not long ago, so naturally he would not want Yuanyi to go alone.

So he said on the spot that he wanted Yuanyi to be with them temporarily.

Naturally, Saiki Kusuo had no objection, it would be better to say that Oda Sakunosuke said it first so that he would not have to say it later.

Both of them expressed their opinions, and Wu Yan naturally had no objection.

Isn't it just bringing a kid, it's nothing.

After Oda Sakunosuke asked Enichi for his opinion and got a willing answer, the threesome turned into a foursome.

In the end, the topic returned to the beginning, and Lou, who had been crooked for a long time, returned to the topic.Oda Sakunosuke's writer's dream will definitely come true, and he also has some ideas about the gift for Saiki Kusuo. The sudden appearance of Xiaogui Yuanyi followed them for a while, and it happened that the sky was getting dark, so they can just go on their way now.

After sorting out the above thoughts, Wu Yan felt that there was no problem and said: "Let's find a place with people first, ask about the news, and help me find my father."

Saiki Kusuo, who had promised to help him find someone, naturally had no objection, and Oda Sakunosuke would not reject Wuyan, and Enichi had no objection to following them, so the four of them had the same opinion and started on their way.

Of course, it is unrealistic for them to walk step by step. It is not sure whether they can reach a village with people after walking in the wilderness until dark.

Just as Wu Yan had mastered a evasion technique without a teacher, she volunteered to lead the three of them on their way.

The three of Saiki and Kusuo only felt that when they closed their eyes, a farmland and a village appeared in front of them.

Kusuo Saiki and Sakunosuke Oda, who experienced it once before, were fine, but Enichi, who experienced it for the first time, couldn't help but widen his eyes, both surprised and curious.

It was almost dark at this time, almost every household in the village was filled with cooking smoke, and there were no people strolling on the road, so the sudden appearance of Wu Yan and the others did not scare anyone.

However, it is only the most marginal village after all, the houses are all simple wooden houses, and the people living in them are ordinary civilians.

Wu Yan, who stopped, just took a look at this poor village, then rolled up her companions again and continued to walk in.

As Wu Yan guessed, the closer the houses are, the bigger and more beautiful the houses are, and the streets are more prosperous.Not only did it not become deserted as the sky gradually darkened, but a night market was simply set up.

In the dim environment, the brightly lit busy street stands out.

Wu Yan fled directly in that direction, and appeared on the street openly.

In the blink of an eye, he changed to another place, and it was still a busy city with bright lights and people coming and going. Saiki Kusuo first suffocated for a moment because of Wu Yan's behavior, and then saw the strange-looking pedestrians all over the street, and the reprimand stuck in his throat: " ...the Monster Bazaar?"

"That's right." Wu Yan replied cheerfully, gently opened the exquisite folding fan made of slender petals in her hand, and the fragrance was overflowing while shaking, making the fan holder elegant and luxurious.

All the monsters who were casting curious or malicious eyes at him, when they met Wu Yan's smiling purple eyes, they all turned their heads and left in panic as if they saw something terrifying.

The bustling market was instantly as quiet as a chicken.

Especially within two or three meters of Wu Yan's body, not a single monster dared to approach.

Wu Yan acted as if she had never heard of it, and explained: "Compared with humans, monsters are better informed and easier to deal with."

"...It is easier to threaten than humans!"

Looking around at a group of monsters trembling like mice seeing a cat when they saw Wu Yan, Saiki Kusuo couldn't help complaining.

Hearing this, Wu Yan, who covered the lower half of her face with a folding fan, winked at him with sly eyes: "Xiao Nan is so smart~"

Regarding this, Kusuo Saiki, who was praised, did not want to speak, but Sakunosuke Oda took Enichi's hand, lowered his head and comforted softly: "Don't be afraid, hold on to me, I will protect you."

Yuanyi turned back to look at the monster in front of him, and smiled happily at him.

Even though there are some ferocious crimson spots on his left forehead, he looks cute and cute when he smiles.

"I'm also protecting Sakunosuke and Xiaonan!"

Wu Yan suddenly interjected in a triumphant tone: "Don't worry, you are contaminated with my aura, no monster would dare to do anything to you."

Although she has never seen monsters before, Wu Yan has a kind of confidence in herself and is full of disdain for these monsters.

His intuition told him that the monsters in the whole street were not enough for him to fight, so he showed up with his friends openly.

Seeing Wuyan's proud appearance, Oda Sakunosuke smiled and said: "Xiaoyan is really amazing, please trouble Xiaoyan."

This coaxing tone successfully coaxed Wu Yan, making him smile and his demeanor became more dignified and self-satisfied.

"This is what it should be, you come with me."

With that said, he took the lead in walking forward.

Oda Sakunosuke led the well-behaved Enichi to follow.

Saiki Kusuo, who was slightly behind, looked at the arrogant Wu Yan in front of him, and then at the obedient, cute and lovely Enichi in front of him. The obvious increase in favorability between the two had no choice but to make him support Oda Saku With admiring eyes.

[As expected of a man with the brilliance of protecting his father, he is a master at coaxing children! 】

Yes, after such a long period of observation and contact, Saiki Kusuo has already given Wu Yan a childish label that is too big and cannot be torn off.

However——【If the age is calculated according to the time since a person became conscious, the Demon King seems to be only over four months old...only a four-month-old non-human baby——】

Thinking about it from this angle, Saiki Kusuo suddenly understood the origin of the other party's childishness.At the same time, the look in front of the young man with a dashing spirit gradually became more subtle.

【The devil king is still a baby... I don’t know why, but it’s obviously true, but I can’t say it. 】

Because he suddenly thought that in those futures of destruction, the time from the appearance of the devil to the destruction of the world by the devil is not long.In other words, in fact, every demon king who is about to destroy the world is Wei!become!Year!

To put it simply and clearly, the world was almost destroyed many times by an underage kid... Thinking about it this way, is the world too fragile and useless?Or is the underage little devil, the Devil King, too aggressive?

【Ah, no matter what the reason is, I can't say it at all. 】

In the end, Saiki Kusuo maintained his dead fish eyes and made a verdict.

Because no matter what the reason is, after I say it, I feel that everything is shattered and gone.

"Little... Nan?"

Wu Yan, who was stared at by Qi Mu Kusuo behind him with subtle and strange eyes for a long time, finally couldn't help but stop, turned around and asked, "What are you looking at? Is there something wrong with me?"

He subconsciously adjusted his cuffs, raised his head and chest, and made sure to look dignified, elegant and personable.

However, in the eyes of Saiki Kusuo at this time, his behavior is like a little devil wearing an adult's clothes and imitating the words, deeds and gestures of an adult.

"...It's okay." Saiki Kusuo's eyes became more loving unconsciously.

Wu Yan was uncomfortable with his gaze.

But if he really wanted to say where he was uncomfortable, he couldn't tell.

Therefore, Wu Yan could only let herself ignore Saiki Kusuo's gaze as much as possible, and wanted to find a topic to break this strange atmosphere.

"Yao の soup house?" Subconsciously read the name on the signboard, Wu Yan's eyes lit up.

"Kusunosuke and the kid, let's go to the hot spring together!"

He thought of the famous scene in the manga, and he went to the mixed bath together if he was a good friend!

【...That was a famous scene to confirm the relationship! 】

***

Wu Yan finally got her wish and went to the hot spring with her friends.

Because his aura was too intimidating, when Wu Yan entered the soup house, all the monsters scattered and fled, clearing the place instantly.

Wu Yan didn't care, and happily took Saiki Kusuo, Oda Sakunosuke, and Enichi to the hot springs.

In the steaming hot spring, several people were naked, leaning or lying on the edge of the pool, enjoying the fun of soaking in the hot spring.

There are plates of food and drinks floating on the surface of the water. When you want to eat or drink, you can touch them with your hand, which is convenient and comfortable.

Of course, Wuyan, Saiki Kusuo, and Enichi, the three minors, were not allowed to drink, and the drinks brought by the owner of the soup house were all packed by Oda Sakunosuke.

Facing Wu Yan's eager expression, Oda Sakunosuke grabbed all the wine bottles and put them on his side without changing his face: "Underage is not allowed to drink alcohol."

Glancing at Wu Yan, who was unwilling to give up, Oda Sakunosuke added: "Drinking alcohol affects development and makes you stupid."

"Pfft, do humans still have such a saying?"

With the sudden laughter, the bottle of wine brought by Oda Sakunosuke suddenly lost one bottle, which made him immediately vigilant.

Before he activated his supernatural ability to try to find the figure of the person who stole the wine, the other party appeared carelessly in the hot spring opposite him, ripping himself into disarray.

He raised his head and took a sip of wine, the handsome big monster raised his eyes to look at Wu Yan, and said with a smile: "We meet again."
