Curse of the Eye of the Dead

Before I knew it, a month had passed.

In mid-June 2009.

The temperature began to rise gradually.

.

A new day starts with work.

At 05:30 in the morning, Oda Sakunosuke opened his eyes in his rental house on time.

Still retaining his past work and rest habits, he changed his clothes and washed in 10 minutes, and then made himself a hot breakfast in a concise and capable manner.

After eating slowly, the burgundy-haired boy put the dark green satchel that was uniformly issued by the newspaper publishing house hanging in the entrance on his back, and stuffed his mobile phone, keys and wallet into his pocket after counting them correctly, and went out neatly at six o'clock. .

"Good morning, landlady grandma."

After going downstairs, Oda Sakunosuke politely greeted the landlady who was watering the flowers in the small courtyard.

"Good morning, Oda-san."

The gray-haired grandma landlady called the boy in front of her with a very cute suffix.

Her eyes are a bit cloudy, and she still has presbyopia, but her expression and gaze are very kind. There are deep wrinkles at the corners of her mouth and eyebrows, and she looks especially kind when she smiles.Although the landlord's grandmother is old, she has a very elegant temperament, and she can vaguely see the beauty of her youth, and even her voice is soft and soft.

"Are you going to work?" The landlady looked at him cheerfully.

"Yes."

"It's not a bad thing for young people to be hardworking. You are a good boy, but you should also pay attention to your body and don't tire yourself."

"do not worry."

Oda Sakunosuke liked the landlady very much.Because of his previous career as a killer, he, who is habitually expressionless, can't help but soften his expression in front of this elder, "This amount of work is not difficult for me."

This is the truth.

Compared with the work in the other world in the past, the current daily life can be described as easy.

"Well, that's good, that's good...Speaking of which, Oda, are you going home for lunch today?"

Oda Sakunosuke recalled today's work schedule, "Probably won't be back, I want to go to the bookstore for a while at noon."

The main purpose is to buy the latest issue of "Fan Xing" and "Hui Tan".

According to past experience, the first batch of "Fantasy Stars" is often sold out within three hours, and the second batch will arrive in three days. Don't worry about "Huitan", as you can usually buy it within two days.

...but he wants it all.

It's just that this morning's work is relatively tight, so I don't have time to go to the bookstore to buy it. I hope the bookstore owner didn't forget to leave a copy for him.

"That's it." Hearing this, the landlady put down the watering can in her hand immediately. He wiped his hands and said softly, "Then wait a minute, Oda."

The landlady hurried into her house, and within a minute, she came out with a bento box.

It was made in advance by the landlord's grandma last night.

"If you don't mind, eat this at noon, don't take instant noodles to solve it casually, you are still growing up now."

Oda Sakunosuke stared blankly at the bento stuffed into his arms.

The landlady took a few steps back briskly after stuffing it, and without giving the boy a chance to speak, the old lady waved her hand directly with a smile, "Okay, hurry up and go to work, don't be late."

After returning to his senses, Oda Sakunosuke tightened his hand holding the bento a little.

He bowed seriously to the landlady's grandma.

"……thanks."

Oda Sakunosuke stuffed the bento into his bag, got on his bicycle, and went to work neatly.

Because the chat was delayed for a while, he silently speeded up.

From 06:30 to [-]:[-] in the morning, it is newspaper delivery and fresh milk delivery.

Because this young freelance worker has gradually gained a reputation. People in the surrounding streets know that he is reliable and prudent, and he will definitely complete the next job, so the bosses don't mind him working in two companies at the same time. Work - as long as it can be delivered anyway.

It is also the delivery work, the well-organized ex-killer boy has clearly planned the delivery route.

He first went to pick up the newspapers to be delivered today, and then followed the prescribed route to the fresh milk factory while delivering them. After the area was finished, he picked up the goods directly, and filled the bicycle with fresh milk in glass bottles The fresh-keeping box at the back started to do two jobs at the same time.

Bicycles run through the streets and lanes of the residential area at a steady speed.

Today is a rest day.

At eight o'clock, the children of Kitazawa's family started their own free activities after the family sat together and had breakfast.

Hui took the book and sat in the yard on Mr. Juling's handmade swing, swinging slowly.

His Shikigami Jade Dog was released to play.

The two large long-haired dogs, one black and one white, haven't fought much since they were called, and now they have directly become part of the family. They are released from time to time to move freely and have fun in the spacious yard of the new home.On weekdays, they either cling to their favorite little master Hui intimately, or play with the little master's sisters and sisters.

Jade dogs also like this home.

Although he was a little wary of Mr. Curse Spirit who is a different kind at the beginning, he quickly chose to get close to him because of the relationship with the young master—after all, Mr. Curse Spirit with a decadent face would usually conscientiously suppress the terrifying breath of curses. , usually looks no different from the old human father.

The most important point is that Mr. Juling, who never raised small animals because of his family and work, now seems to make up for his regrets, and loves Hui's shikigami dogs very much.

Even if they know that shikigami don't need to eat, they still feed them secretly.Thanks to the jade dog being a shikigami, he was not fed into a ball.

Most of them are handmade dog rice.

Occasionally, Mr. Curse Ling, who was going to buy vegetables, would tie up a few innocent passing curses with bone chains, stuff them into a bag, and bring them back to feed the Jade Dog.

——Jade Dog, as a shikigami, can devour spell spirits to enhance spell power.

Although it is basically a small curse of the fourth level, it is better than nothing.

Just passing low-level curses: ? ? ?

In short, the current life of jade dogs is as happy as ordinary domestic dogs.

At this moment, they are very excited, sticking out their tongues, wagging their tails, and running around the yard following Chacha.Chacha rolled up her trouser legs, wore slippers, happily jumped up and down with a water hose, and watered the grass and flowers along the way.

The water pipe sprinkler head specially used in the garden can adjust the spray pattern, a bit like a shower.The scattered water droplets are very delicate, and fall into the air like soft drizzle.

The Jade Dog was quickly attracted by the water splash, wagging its tail and ran under the spray, its beautiful fur was wet, the dogs flicked their fur, and the water dripped all over the body.

Chacha laughed even more happily. She turned off the water pipe and put it down, then rushed over and hugged the big white dog.

Just at this time, the bell of the bicycle came from the main gate.

The burgundy-haired boy, wearing a hat and carrying a satchel, stopped steadily at the door of Kitazawa's house.

Chacha heard the sound, she let go of the dog, and walked briskly towards the door.

"Morning - good - good! Brother Oda!"

At the door of Kitazawa's house.

Oda Sakunosuke parked his bicycle and just took out a newspaper from his satchel when he heard the energetic voice of a girl with warm brown long hair.

He knew the children of the family, and the children of the family knew him.

Just like many people around here, they all know Oda Sakunosuke.

... After all, he, the working emperor, is everywhere. His short wine-red hair and that face with a tendency to facial paralysis are very iconic.

You can find him working part-time anywhere at any time: Today he is still a newspaper or milk delivery man, tomorrow he is a messenger and courier, the day after tomorrow he is a convenience store employee, the day after tomorrow he is a temporary cashier in a supermarket, and even coffee shops and izakayas will appear. figure.

When Chacha first realized this, she was in a trance for a while, and even doubted for a while, and asked foolishly if the other party had several siblings.

Then I got a negative answer from the working emperor.

No siblings, just "more" part-time jobs.

It's too shocking.

After coming and going, the children of the Kitazawa family can also say hello and say a few words when they meet each other.

For example at this time.

Oda Sakunosuke politely replied hello, then bent down under Chacha's gaze and handed the newspaper to the other party, then took out three bottles of fresh milk from the safe fixed on the back seat of the bicycle, and handed them over through the railing of the gate, "This It's your family's newspaper and milk today, so be careful."

"Okay." Chacha hugged all the things in her arms, and then looked curiously at the newspaper in the other party's satchel: "Do you have more to send?"

"It's not much, it's just the last street, and I can probably get off work early today."

"That's great." Chacha said, "If you leave work early, you can have a good rest."

"Yeah." The burgundy-haired boy thought it right, and whispered to himself with an extremely serious expression: "Maybe I can go to the bookstore before another part-time job starts after nine o'clock."

At this point in time, there is no doubt that you can buy it.

Chacha blinked: "Do you want to buy books? It's okay to go after get off work, right?"

"No." Oda Sakunosuke shook his head, "Ms. Kakuo's article is too popular, and the bookstore has a limited quantity. If you go late, you won't be able to buy it today."

Thinking of this, Oda Sakunosuke immediately got on the bicycle again, looked at Chacha, and said quickly, "Sorry, Chacha, I'm in a hurry, I'm leaving first."

"Oh...Okay, goodbye! Brother Oda." Chacha couldn't wave her hands while holding the fresh milk and the newspaper, so she just nodded, watched the other party leave, and went home with her things in her arms.

Oda-san is Dad's reader!

Chacha squinted her eyes like a puppy who was praised and giggled, her favorability was raised a bit, and she happily froze the milk into the refrigerator as she bounced around and hummed.

.

Sakunosuke Oda left work early, and hurried to the bookstore to buy the latest issue of "Starry Stars" and "Eidan" before the start of his next part-time job.

I didn't look at it for the first time, but carefully put it in my satchel, and then went to a certain family's house to help connect the water pipe according to the appointment.

It was not until 12:30 noon that Oda Sakunosuke had a break.

He found a quiet place to sit down, took out the lunch box given to him by the landlady's grandmother, and watched the latest update of Teacher Jiaowei while eating.

Sakunosuke Oda read "Stars" first, and skillfully turned to the section serialized by Mr. Kakuo.

The mystery of the corpse's death was solved.

The casino dealer accidentally learned the truth about the monster. For a while, the conflict between conscience and kindness became more intense, and his position became more and more precarious.

The young croupier who still maintains his conscience... what will happen in the end?

Oda Sakunosuke had a bad feeling in a trance.

He who was deeply substituted into the novel world by the text sighed.

Just about to turn another page, Oda Sakunosuke suddenly noticed a line of notice at the bottom of the page.

[To all readers: The "Casino Dealer" chapter will end next week, and Mr. Kakuo's work "Traveler's 21 Years of Experience Notes" will also stop serialization after next week. ]

Oda Sakunosuke:! ! !

The burgundy-haired boy was startled, but soon noticed that there was another line——

[In mid-July, Qiuyue Society will officially publish the collection of "Traveler's 21 Years of Experience Notes". In addition to the bride Aqian and the casino dealer, it will also include three unpublished new chapters. The specific time will be announced three days in advance. ]

.

Yes.

The publication of Uno's novels has finally been formally finalized.

Publicity was carried out as soon as it was decided, trying to create heat in advance.

At the same time, Uno's editor also sent him a film and television copyright contract from a well-known film and television company.

[Editor Hiramatsu: Mr. Uo, in addition to publishing, we have another piece of good news to tell you! ]

[Editor Ping Song: A film and television company wants to sign the chapter of "Bride Aqian" in your "21 Years of Traveler's Notes" as a movie script! ]
