Curse of the Eye of the Dead

A normal, warm family... what is the atmosphere like?

There is actually no standard answer to this.

But at least... it must be a place where people can feel at ease.

It is obviously just a combination of ordinary daily life, but somehow it can leave the deepest traces in people's hearts.

Although there will be troubles and small conflicts, peace of mind and happiness will not be buried.

No matter how many winds and rains and setbacks you have experienced outside, after turning around, you can still easily see the warm lights and the door that is always open for you - this pair of conjurers, especially those from a family It is really a very luxurious desire.

Therefore, Maki is a little envious of Megumin and Knotweed.

Especially Hui.

Even though they also inherited the blood of the Zenyuan family, they can have a completely different future.

Of course, to hate other people's happiness because of her own misfortune, because she had a miserable life, everyone must empathize with her... Maki is not yet capable of such extreme thoughts.

She has the will to face her own misfortune calmly, and the courage to walk firmly on the thorny road.

This is also one of her greatest personality charms.

Therefore, Maki's envy is just a very simple envy.

In the envy, there is also some relief that Hui Hui escaped from the poisonous pit of the Buddhist monastery.

then.

She paid more attention to observing the daily life of the Kitazawa family.

——Observing the relationship between family members, listening to their conversations, learning and touching everything she is unfamiliar with and does not understand.

.

"...Let me tell you, sir, on the last day off, we went to Akihabara together as a first grader, and met Gojo-sensei."

Knotweed enthusiastically talked about his school day with the head of the family, and he seemed to have countless things to share.

He gestured with a smile: "Then, we went to follow Mr. Wutiao, wanting to see what Mr. Wutiao would do on his rest day, but we followed up at the maid cafe, to benefit him—"

"Give me your food!!" Huiyan quickly picked up the apple on the dining table, stuffed it fiercely into the mouth of the knotweed beside her, and physically silenced her voice.

"What what? Maid cafe? It's really Akihabara!"

However, it was too late, Two-dimensional fan Kitazawa Chacha's eyes lit up, and she asked excitedly, "Is there a maid outfit with cat ears in the anime?"

"Uuuuuuu..."

Polygonum cuspidatum, who is also a fan of comics, nodded quickly.

He spit out the apple in his mouth, quickly bent over to avoid Hui's head-knocking threat, and then made a patch under the constant dodge: "Actually, we stopped at the door of the cafe. After all, it's really shameful." But I was noticed by the waitress, and then I was forced to go in... Chacha, let me tell you, there are decorations of little angel wings and angel halos for guests, and they even shout weird and shameful slogans to take pictures Remember... ouch!"

Hui, who finally hit his bad friend with the hammer, faced death's gaze, and said every word: "Stop talking about such embarrassing things!"

"Although it was embarrassing at first, it's actually quite interesting when you think about it... By the way, Hui, where did the photos we took at that time go?"

"Who knows, didn't you collect it?"

"Eh? Didn't you put it away? I didn't find it on me... Could it be that it's gone?" The knotweed was quite a pity: "It's a pity, I still want to say bring it back for my husband, Chacha and sister Jin Meiji to see of it."

"... What kind of demon are you?" Hui complained: "It's really great not to see... Also, since you want to tell me, explain the details clearly, I didn't bring any strange decorations with me at all I didn't shout any strange slogans, you guys forced me to take pictures!"

"It's almost rounded up..."

"It's so far away! My shame will torture me!"

Tsumiki and Chacha couldn't stop laughing.

Uogi thought for a while, but he didn't say that the lost photos of Kei and Knotweed were picked up by their follower Gojo Satoru, and they left them for him to see on the same day.

——He kept that photo in the family album, and he didn't know how long it would be before the children found it.

Uso thought for a while, and decided to remain silent for the time being.

Afterwards, Chacha talked about her daily life: "When I went to work part-time at a detective agency after school, that bastard Dazai actually used my name to make Chuya go all the way to buy crepes and matcha Daifuku! It's so easy to lie, Dazai has so many previous convictions, yet he still believes his nonsense!"

"After all, it's Chuya..." Hui thought for a while and commented.

"Now that I think about it, Chuya-san is really miserable. It's okay to be at the same table as Osamu Dazai in junior high school, but I didn't expect to be at the same table in high school... By the way, sister Tsumiki, Chuya-san and the others should be in the same class as you ? Dazai didn't play a trick on you, did he?"

Chacha's tone was very serious.

Tsumiji nodded, and she rolled up her sleeves to beat someone up.

Tsumiji pretended to be contemplative: "Well...does it count if you invite me on a date?"

Huihe Chacha: "What——!"

Even Uno raised his eyelids with a surprised expression.

Chacha is full of sense of crisis: "That guy is a young lady, so she has a lot of criminal records. The waitress at the coffee shop downstairs in our detective agency can fully prove that guy's bad deeds. Sister Jinmeiji must stay away from him! "

Kei began to think about Osamu Dazai.

Dazai ran away from home when he was just in his early tenth year. He wandered alone for a long time with the first collection published by Usao.Until he met Sakunosuke Oda and was recommended by the other party to join the detective agency, and then he was thrown to school by the detective agency president Fukuzawa Yukichi because of Chacha's sentence "a fish that slipped through the net of nine-year compulsory education". It got a lot better under the influence of friends.

However, although I didn't learn to be bad...but my personality is really out of tune.

That guy is like a black cat owed to his hand, his life is endless and he keeps causing trouble.In order to cause trouble and play a prank, he directly set the escape skill of Huabuliuqiu to the full level.

Dazai: Run away if provoked, you can't catch me!

... When Chacha met Dazai for the first time, the evaluation of "Gojo Wu No. [-]" was not just casually.

While Gojo Satoru has been stabilized for a while because of his position as the leader of the reform work, the former Dazai has become more and more self-indulgent.

Hui shouted from the bottom of her heart: That is definitely not a good person to entrust her sister to the other party!

So he stood firmly on Chacha's side.

Tsumiji raised her eyebrows: "He's just joking, you can tell by his tone of voice? Besides me, he also said that to many girls, but if he was promised, he would find a reason to shirk it." drop the date."

Although some girls who take dating seriously might cry.

And because of his younger sister Akutagawa Gin, Nakahara Nakahara, who is very empathetic and never sees a girl cry, will angrily chase after Nie Yuan and hurt his friend, and then drag the reluctant Dazai to cry for others The girl apologized.

... Then he pressed the head of a certain mackerel, and told girls face-to-face that they should not be deceived by men's appearance casually, and the more attractive men are, the more they can deceive others with smooth words.

Dazai: It's slander...!

Chuya: Shut up.

They are joking with each other and telling each other about their daily life.

Some disgusting words are only superficial, and the law that the better the relationship is, the more damage the words are still operating normally.

The topics of the Kitazawa family are actually just common topics that come from around them.

...Can we go on chatting in such a casual way?

I don't know when I started to fall out with my sister, and Maki thought that I haven't talked to her for a long time.

Zenyuan Maki wants to become the head of the Zenyuan family.

She wants to give a real "home" to the only family member she recognizes, the younger sister who grew up dependent on each other.

But if you don't understand what a normal family should look like, and what happiness really looks like, you will be at a loss.The direction of your efforts will also be covered with fog, and you may make mistakes or miss something if you are not careful.

Everyone in the college is of course very good.

But for Maki, who just left the Buddhist monastery last year and joined a high school, and has only a half-knowledge about normal families, what she experienced at Kitazawa's house made her eyes shine even more.

This kind of plain and warm harmony and warmth makes her yearn for it, and this cannot be achieved by being strong enough.

Maki worked hard to observe other people's families, the atmosphere of getting along with brothers and sisters, and the attitude of Uo himself as the head of the family.

Next time... Let's find a chance to have a good chat with Zhenyi.

She made up her mind.

Then, when Knotweed and Hui once again brought the topic to the high school, Maki also smoothly shared some things about herself and joined the conversation with a smile.

Sharing, speaking the truth, understanding and respecting each other... may be the secret to maintaining harmony in the family.

.

After dinner, as expected, it was decided by playing games to choose who to wash the dishes.

Maki, who doesn't need to wash the dishes as a guest, took the initiative to join in with interest.

Having never played a fighting game before, she seems to have completely maxed out her fighting talents in all fields. Under Hui's explanation, Maki got started easily, and then killed them all the way-won the no-washing contest. The first place to win.

Unsurprisingly, Knotaba Yuhito, who is good at playing pachinko*1 but has no talent in fighting games, loses to the end.

"Wait a minute, eh? Wait a minute, Chacha, defense, watch me defend! Okay, watch the move, it's my reverse nirvana! Eh? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh few minutes.

He resigned himself to his fate and ran to wash the dishes, and the rest of them took their places without hesitation, staying and continuing to play games.

Even Uno himself was dragged over by Chacha and beaten.

Uo is also very hard on fighting games. He is not used to using controllers, and he is not familiar with some trick buttons.

He watched blankly as the character he controlled was beaten and retreated, and then lost in a mess.

"It's at a level that even brother Knotthu Zhang can easily overwhelm and win." Chacha commented heavily.

"Fortunately, Dad is not in the competition quota." Hui nodded in agreement.

Otherwise, Uno may have to take over the quota of washing dishes for a long time to come.

In the end, Chacha took Tsumiji to play sports cars, and the rest of them played the board game Monopoly where four people can play together.

Uo and Knotabagi, who have lost consecutively in fighting games, are far ahead and evenly matched in this game that depends on luck and judgment.

Hui of negative equity: "..."

Oops, it was affected by the DNA of Shier's extremely unlucky guy!

Maki who also has negative equity: "..."

This is impossible!Could it be that he has been in contact with Shier for too long!

.

Shi Er, who was far away in the college, sneezed unexpectedly.
