It was the younger Fu Heihui who took the initiative to break the silence.

"...good evening, sir!"

He seemed to know that the gentleman in front of him didn't like to be noticed, so Hui's voice was very soft, at least not attracting the attention of other shoppers in the distance.

Although Uogi's costume, which seems to be playing cosplay anytime and anywhere, and his exaggerated height and figure, have nothing to do with the five words [unobtrusive].

Speaking of which, Kei still doesn't know how the other party managed to wear this conspicuous and weird outfit but still have no sense of presence... Could it be that this is the other party's "spell"?

The green-eyed little guy managed to find a possible answer from the contents of the "Mystery Solving Book" in his memory. He was distracted, but quickly gathered his attention.

In short, in order not to let this kind-hearted gentleman who had finally met again and didn't want to get into trouble turn around and leave again, Hui spoke very fast.He bowed slightly, and whispered with an almost impeccable honorific:

"I wanted to thank you a long time ago, but I haven't been able to meet you again."

"Whether it's the scene of the first meeting or the key question-solving book... I really appreciate your help."

The "doubt-solving book" that Uosheng gave him at the beginning was brand new and handwritten.

Every character is very clear and beautiful. In order to prevent the young Hui from ignoring it, he also considerately marked the fifty-sound on the rare characters and Chinese characters.

You can tell at a glance that it is something specially prepared.

Hui couldn't tell her feelings, but kept this matter firmly in her heart.

After finally meeting again, the little child thanked this kind person very earnestly.

After looking around, the black-skinned and white-haired curse spirit hesitated to press down the idea of ​​[pretending to leave as if nothing had happened].

He continued to maintain the squatting posture, tilted his head steadily, and looked at the child with his dark red eyes, as if he was observing something, but also as if he was listening to the other party's words carefully.

It's just that Uno still didn't speak until the end.

And the kid didn't seem to care about not being able to get a reply from Uo.

Fu Heihui just said thank you earnestly, picked up the box of chicken breast that was probably the cheapest and most affordable in the low freezer, and then gently put it into the shopping basket at Uogi's feet .

The kid who gave up the chicken breast bowed again.

"excuse me."

As Fu Heihui said this, he pulled his shopping basket obediently and quietly, and walked to other shelves.

With a decadent face, Uosu looked down dully at the box of chicken breast in his shopping basket.

The next second, he raised his head again, and looked at Hui's figure in a daze.

Compared with the small figure of the child, the shopping basket dragged behind by the other party looked a lot bigger.

.

Fu Heihui is here to buy food for tomorrow.

Because his stepmother used to come to this supermarket at night to grab the special ingredients that were not sold out during the day, so he knew where to buy them and what time to buy them was the most affordable.

There are a lot of unsold special vegetables here after [-]pm. Although they are all wilted and there are not many choices...but at least they are cheap and edible.

What's more, you can also buy the most affordable special meat here.

For example, the original price of the box of thick chicken breasts just now is very affordable, and the price will be even lower after the [-]% discount... If it wasn’t for the kind-hearted gentleman who once helped me to also want to buy it, Hui would probably say anything. Never give up.

As for why he came to the supermarket alone to buy things...

That was naturally because the adults who would have come to shop had disappeared.

three days ago.

Fu Heihui's stepmother left a letter and left alone with a suitcase.

The content of the letter is very concise.

[Sorry, I can't convince myself to stay, I can't afford the whole family... Goodbye. ]

—Only this line.

At the same time, there was a stack of banknotes in the envelope.

That is the living expenses left by the stepmother to the children.

Rarely, if you live frugally, you can only support two children's food for a month, not including water and electricity bills.

As for what to do in a month... The disappearing stepmother obviously couldn't think about it that much.

Probably left it to fend for itself.

Fu Heihui had long realized that he would be abandoned.

He just couldn't understand why his stepmother would leave Tsumiji behind.

...Why didn't you take Tsumiki with you?

Unlike me, Tsumiki is your biological daughter, right?

She is neither naughty nor willful, gentle, kind and sensible, with a very warm smile, and is not difficult to take care of at all.

So why?

The young Fu Heihui's heart was cold.

He can go to the orphanage, but he can't watch Tsumiki follow him to that kind of place.

Especially not long ago, the scandal of the orphanage was broadcast on TV.

But no matter how unwilling Fu Heihui is, the fact is——the stepmother has indeed disappeared.

Abandoned Fu Heihui, abandoned her biological daughter, left only one month's living expenses, and never came back.

The two children had to depend on each other.

Tsumiki is in charge of cooking, while Fukurohui is offering to help buy the cheapest ingredients.

In order to buy the cheapest ingredients, Huida had to go out at night—this was of course rejected by Tsumiji on the grounds of safety.

Until Fu Heihui was entangled and chose to summon her shikigami.

Megumi Fuguro, who has taught himself the power of mantra for a month and already knows how to use his own spells, and his sister Tsumiki confessed the existence of their shikigami.

Although Tsumiki couldn't see, Kei could hold the other's hand to touch the big dog, one black and one white.

"Xiaohei and Xiaobai will protect me, they are very strong, so it doesn't matter to me."

Megumi concealed the existence of the curse, but only showed a slightly different part of herself—in order to reassure Tsumiki.

He knew that Tsumiji would never be afraid of him because of this, and it was true.

"I will go home as soon as possible." Hui would reassure her sister repeatedly when she went out every night, and seriously refused to follow her sister.

Then from my apartment, I walked to a remote supermarket, and seriously looked for the cheapest ingredients that did not exceed today's budget.

When the day comes when the money runs out... what to do?

The two children of Fuhei's family did not know.

I can only move forward step by step and continue to live with anxiety and fear.

.

Fu Heihui browsed the entire ingredients area, took down the only remaining wrinkled cabbage and two overripe tomatoes and put them in the shopping basket, then moved to the bento area, trying to get them off the shelves on tiptoe Two boxes of bento boxes with a [-]% discount because they were due due date. After comparing the prices, he put them into his shopping basket with a blank expression.

The shopping basket is obviously much smaller than the shopping cart, but even so, there are only a handful of things in it.

Fu Heihui, who was about to pay the bill, turned around and almost bumped into the "zero presence" Mr. Air.

Hui took a step back, raised his head with difficulty, looked at the black-skinned curse spirit who did not know when to follow, and said in confusion:

"……gentlemen?"

Manu Ling suddenly realized that his height made it difficult for the child to look up, so he couldn't help taking a step back, squatting down, and slightly bowed his waist, trying to put the two people's eyes on the same level as possible.

Uno's red eyes looked very seriously at the clear green eyes in front of him.

Uo, who had observed Fu Heihui for a long time, spoke to the child for the first time:

"……Where are your parents?"

Uo's voice is low and hoarse, very unique and highly recognizable.

Although he still had a decadent face that was not very energetic, his slightly wrinkled eyebrows revealed a bit of worry.

Hui, who was approached by this taciturn man for the first time, was stunned. It took a long time before he came back to his senses. After realizing what the other party asked, Fu Heihui subconsciously lowered his head and fell into silence. Hiding behind himself.

But sometimes silence is the best answer.

Uo, who had seen many abandoned wild little magicians during his lifetime, realized the truth belatedly.

Was this child abandoned by his guardian?

It must have been abandoned.

But why?

The last time I quietly followed the child near the house and observed the situation through the window, it seemed to be fine.

Is it an exception exposed?

Is it because of my "question-solving book" that this child was abandoned by his family when he was learning to use spell power?

But this kid used to hide it very well...

No.

Because this kid did a good job in the past, he took it for granted that he would be fine in the future... that was too arrogant and stupid.

Mr. Curse Ling froze, his expressionless decadent face was numb.

For a while, the self-blame caused by random guesses almost overwhelmed him.

"...they were busy, so I went out to do the shopping myself."

Fu Heihui gave the answer after a while, he tried to use this as a cover, but it was too late.

No matter how precocious a child who is only six years old... But the experience is obviously far from enough.

It seemed that he also understood that his answer was too late and his lie had failed too much, the annoyed little guy pursed his lips.

He's not worried about what will happen to his family situation if the man in front of him finds out... Although he doesn't meet many times and doesn't know the name of the other party, Fu Heihui, who has actually been helped twice by the other party, has some feelings for him trust.

This gentleman is a nice guy.

He's a very down-to-earth guy...Although he's tall and dressed in a weird way, he'll come to buy special food at night like many housewives, and his style of painting looks quite subtle.

But just because he is a good person, he spends a lot of time making a "question-solving book" for a strange child because he sees the "curse" and is troubled by the "curse". That's why Kei doesn't want to trouble the other party.

Don't cause trouble for the other party...

Fu Heihui thought so, then hurriedly bowed to the man in front of him, pulled his shopping basket, turned around and ran away.

.

Kei watched nervously near the cash register for a long time.

After making sure that he didn't see the tall man dressed strangely, he dragged his shopping basket to pay the bill.

The shopping bag that comes with it contains a cabbage, two tomatoes and two boxes of bento. There are very few things, but this is already the food for the two children of Fuhei's family tomorrow.

Fu Heihui was carrying the shopping bag in his hand. He just went out, and not long after he left, he met "Mr. Air" again.

Fu Heihui: ...

Uno: ...

The curse spirit with a decadent face standing in front of the child hesitated for a long time before finally speaking cautiously: "Excuse me, do you mind if I take you home?"

Obviously such a tall and strong man.

However, when he asked this sentence, his expression and tone were cautious and gentle, as if he was coaxing a kitten that was anxious after being abandoned.

.

Fu Heihui was sent home by the taciturn Mr. Curse Spirit.

That's weird.

Some people will abandon their biological children to let them fend for themselves, but some will silently guard for strange children who have no blood relationship.

One person and one curse spirit walked quietly on the road.

Uosu calmly helped Hui carry the bag.

In order to give the child a sense of security, Uno deliberately kept a certain distance from the child, and even handed over his mobile phone to the child.

Uo: "Press this button to get 110."

benefit:"……"

In short, all the way silent.

Hui, who has a sensitive personality, did retain some vigilance. When he was about to arrive at the residential area where his apartment was located, he offered to separate.

Uno nodded, took the mobile phone that Kei returned, and then returned the shopping bag that belonged to Kei in his hand.

Hui bowed politely, thanked him, and then took back his bag. After walking a few steps, he suddenly felt that the weight in his hand was wrong.

He opened his shopping bag and took a look.

... There are three more pieces of meat in it.

Pork, Wagyu, and even that hefty box of chicken breasts.

"...!"

The little guy with rounded green eyes hurriedly turned around.

However, it was clear that they were only separated for less than a minute——

The silent, strange, and gentle man who stood behind him like a guardian spirit...has long since disappeared without a trace.
