Curse of the Eye of the Dead

Most schools in Japan have a three-semester system, with three holidays: summer vacation, winter vacation and spring vacation.

But the high school did not.

In the conjuration world where manpower is scarce, enrolling in a college is equivalent to entering a job—with a salary.

Compared with the social animal seniors after graduation, the junior conjurer of the college is not so much a student, but a part-time worker who occasionally enjoys weekends and rest days and has group activities.

But forget about the holidays.

Therefore, it's not surprising that these little conjurers would forget the routines that normal students should have.

No, to be precise, except for Yi Gu, Maki, who was born in a Buddhist monastery, and the panda who couldn't speak normally, had never attended a school for ordinary people.

——So the latter three simply don't know the work and rest time that normal students should have.

"Hey, Yuta, I managed to escape from death, let me call Hui over to celebrate together, after all, I am also a comrade in arms who has experienced together."

After systematic treatment, Maki fully recovered after a night's sleep. Because there are many things to deal with in the magic world after the war, and the school that has been destroyed a lot needs to be repaired urgently, so the course has been put on hold for a while.

And the high school students who participated in the battle in "Hundred Ghosts of the Night" were also fortunate to usher in a short holiday for a few days - the senior conjurers who have graduated are unlucky and have to continue finishing work.

Under the premise that everyone is crowded and free, Maki, who has just finished today's gymnastics training, simply invites everyone to have a dinner together to celebrate.

——Congratulations to everyone who came back safe and sound after the war.

Yi Gu: "Although I have no objection, but... today is the fourth day."

Maki: "Huh? Is it a special day?"

Otoko blinked, he touched the head of "Satoshi" who popped up acting like a baby when he talked to Maki, and said to his classmates while comforting him: "Today is the first day of school, Megumi is still a junior high school student. Well, I should still be struggling in school now."

Maki was stunned for a while, then belatedly said: "Huh? School starts today? Tsk, subconsciously forgot that kid is still studying in an ordinary school."

Ever since she realized that Hui's technique was "Ten Kinds of Shadow Art", and that she was a foreign surname who did not belong to the Buddhist monastery and rejected the Zen monastery, she became more fond of this future student.

Compared with the complex psychology of jealousy, Maki, who was rescued by the other party in the battle with Xia Youjie, is more sacramental and frank, gloating at the loss of the dream treasure of the Chanyuan family.

If you do a lot of unrighteousness, you will kill yourself, and you deserve it!

As for the terrifying aura that appeared on the day of the Hyakki Night Walk, Maki didn't ask, and she didn't mention it when taking notes.

According to Shi Er and Wujo Wu's request, she attributed the credit for killing the super curse master Xia Youjie to Fu Heisher.

Although he didn't ask, it doesn't mean Maki didn't notice.After all, Yuta, who hesitated at the time, and Kei, who pretended to go to the toilet and said he didn't know, were full of suspicious colors.

It's just that Maki, who is a Gojo faction, is obviously more partial to her own people than the top management.

Since Shi Er and Wujo Wu also asked her to cooperate with the confession, she naturally would not ask any more questions.

Probably not an enemy... although the breath is really scary.

It's the feeling that everyone knows but I don't.

But when the time is right, they should also let me know, so I won't pursue it now.

Maki, who has enough trust in his companions.

"On the first day of school, there must be time in the afternoon or evening, right?" Maki touched her chin, pondered, and then poked Yi Gu's back with the martial arts stick in her hand, "When do ordinary students leave school? Ask If Hui has time to come over in the evening, let's just have a hot pot, as for the location, it's in your room."

"Why is it my room..."

"Because your room is the emptiest, and you were allocated the quietest corner because of Li Xiang, so no matter how noisy you are, it won't disturb anyone."

"Yes Yes……"

Yi Gu picked up the phone helplessly and gently, and sent Hui a text message.

"By the way, I'll invite that guy Shier again." Maki took out her mobile phone and muttered.

"Hey, it's really rare, you actually call Shi Er to come over." The panda was full of relief, "Has the quarrel finally stopped? Well, although the age difference is a bit big, you are cousins ​​after all, it's best if you can get along well gone."

"Ah? Don't say it so disgusting." Maki twitched the corners of her mouth with disgust on her face, "If it wasn't because that guy is an idiot, I wouldn't want to invite him over."

"What do you mean?" Panda tilted his head, "Speaking of which, who is the Hui you mentioned just now?"

Maki: "It's that idiot Shir who lost his own son for about ten years, that is, my nephew."

The pupils of the panda and the dog quake: "Huh——!?/Salmon!?"

.

Although she often quarrels with Shir, and also despises the other party's ridiculously strong but self-defeating behavior, Maki actually doesn't hate that guy.

After all, compared to the truly rotten Zenyuan family, Shier, who has personality defects, is already considered pretty good among them.

The most important thing is that on the day of "Hyakki Night Walk", Kei, who didn't get along much with Shir, might not realize it, but Maki, who had been mentored by her cousin for a while, could see it clearly.

——That guy clearly cares about his children.

Hui's annoyance when she was attacked, her relief when she found out that Hui was fine, and her shock and bewilderment when she was politely thanked by Hui.

But

After the death of the mastermind of "Hundred Ghosts of the Night Walk", Shi Er, who was carrying a pile of recycled magic tools, took a slow look at Hui and the two students, and then He Hui stared at him with big eyes.

He struggled for a few seconds, recalling in his head the words "Please check the child's physical condition again" and "The other two children should not forget" that Uogi had told him, and then——

With an expressionless face, Fu Heisher said dryly, "Are you okay? I'll go first if I'm okay. By the way, this is your thing." Then he left.

The only thing he did well was the matter that Uosheng asked him to hand over the bone chain.

Hui grabbed the bone chain with a dead expression on his face: ...It was indeed an illusion before, so I shouldn't have expected anything from this man.

Maki who sees through Shir's struggling heart: ... Is this guy an idiot?

"That's your own son, right? You obviously care about it, why don't you care about it?"

"... long-winded."

Afterwards, Maki asked the man as if to complain, but was only perfunctory by Shi Er impatiently.

Maki didn't know what the other party was thinking.

But she can be sure that this man is an idiot.

Even if you have been disqualified and have done wrong things, you shouldn't escape after you wake up, right?

Better to make up than nothing.

He obviously cared a lot but was extremely timid and awkward, he really was as big as Bai Chang.

Impatiently, Maki called Shier and directly ordered him to be there tonight.

.

The confidant sent by Toranojiro has already completed the disguise, and that person is helping to create a record of real existence with the appearance and name on the human identity certificate of "Kitazawa Uo".

Uo, who was still in isolation, temporarily lived in a certain apartment, and tilted his head when he saw Kei who turned to his temporary residence after school.

"Senior Gaozhuan invited you to a dinner party? I know, that boy Yi Gu sent me a message by the way."

Uno said softly, then pointed to the five-storey bento box in the kitchen, "I heard it's going to be a hot pot, right? I'll go and buy some ingredients for you and prepare some appetizers. Take it with you."

Just like all the parents in the world who are worried about their children's interpersonal relationship-hope that Kei can be taken care of by the seniors in the future, and hope that Kei can integrate into it well... Uo has spent a lot of thought on this.

and.

"Otoko Yuta: ... Teacher Fuhei will also come over."

In any case, the other party is Hui's biological father and future teacher.

He also saved Hui at a critical moment.

Although that man has a lot of problems, but it is not to the point of being hopeless. The previous incidents probably have their own reasons.

——So, it would be great if the man who seemed to have come to his senses could explain it clearly to Kei and apologize.

Hui was not so narrow-minded.

He just cares about the "truth" out of human nature.

However, the behavior of the client was so annoying that Hui could not let it go for a long time.

Thinking from the perspective of an adoptive father, Uno is a little worried that his important child will be taken away.But after calming down a little, you should understand that this kind of thing will not happen.

Therefore, Usheng hopes that the two biological father and son can live in peace.

Honestly, it's just a matter of having an honest conversation.

But the most critical thing is that Shi Er is not very cooperative.

Uo couldn't help but sigh when he thought about Kei's angry words after returning home.

"Dad, you are too gentle, that guy is completely different from you, so he doesn't care about me! Opportunity?... Well, unless he tells me clearly why he ignores me, abandons me and sells me, I won't go again Just ignore him, he died so early that he can only explain what happened after I was three years old, before he was homeless and sold me out!"

I hope this dinner can make it clear.

The purpose of Yi Gu's group of children may also be the same.

Hui didn't know that Fu Heisher would be there, and it must be the same with Shier.

The only thing Uno can do now is to prepare enough delicious food for Kei to take over.

Good food always lifts the mood.

hope everything is fine.

.

The time for the dinner party was at night, and the location of Gaozhuan was too far away from Yokohama, so Hui would stay overnight at Yigu's place tonight, and for this reason, he brought a set of pajamas and a change of clothes.

When it was almost o'clock, Kei stuffed five bento boxes into her shadow, and headed out with her bag on her back.

Yi Gu went to pick Hui up, and when he arrived at the dormitory, Hui politely greeted Gou Juan and Panda, introduced himself, then took out a lunch box from the shadow, and put it on the table.

"Here's some food prepared by my dad, please don't be too polite."

dad?

Panda and Goujuan looked at each other, and immediately ruled out Shier.

It should be Hui's adoptive father.

They opened the bento box and looked at the glistening dishes inside. Panda and Goujuan were silent for a long time, and then tacitly deducted [-] points from Shier.

I am sorry.

But compared to the disqualified father who lost his child for ten years, Hui's adoptive father is really much better.

Because it is a hot pot, many of them are raw ingredients, such as very fresh and large portions of wagyu beef slices, shelled crabs and shrimps, hand-made fresh meatballs, and all kinds of very cute cut vegetables.

Of course, there are also many exquisite and delicious appetizers.

Hot spring eggs, sashimi, stewed dishes, fruits, tempura... There is even a box specially packed with desserts.

It feels like an ordinary dinner has become a high-end meal in a high-end restaurant.

Even curse skeleton pandas who don't need to eat can understand the delicacy and care in it.

I heard from (Yi Bone) that Hui is now a single-parent family.

...The single foster father is a perfect combination of masculinity and femininity.

"Why isn't Maki-senpai here?"

Hui arranged the ingredients she brought and the ingredients prepared by her seniors, looked at the hot pot that had already boiled, and looked around in a daze.

Maki, as the initiator of the dinner party, did not see the parties at the scene, which was obviously a little strange.

"She... went to pick up another person, and she should be there soon."

"Are there any other seniors?"

The panda pretended to be stupid and scratched its plush ears: "...Well, you will know when the time comes."

.

Shir hadn't planned to come.

He's not interested in children's dinners, and the body of the living dead doesn't need to eat anymore—so Maki went to catch him herself.

Reluctantly taking a step forward, he was the only one who carried a bunch of drinks without any ingredients, followed behind Maki, and arrived at the destination 10 minutes after Goumaki enthusiastically put the food into the pot.

"Oh, I smell the fragrance, it seems that we came just in time."

Maki smiled and pushed open the door.

Then he precisely grabbed Fuheshier who was about to slip away because of seeing Hui the moment she opened the door.
