Curse of the Eye of the Dead

Saturday.

The temperature in spring is slightly cool, and the sky is blue, with only a few fluffy clouds dotted on it.

The crows whined and flew by, and at the same time the spring breeze blew slowly.

A certain house in Kanagawa Ward, Yokohama.

Kitazawa's villa.

The tall curse spirits with black skin and white hair, Tsumiki and Hui sat cross-legged in order of height on the edge of the first floor.

In front of them is the spacious and beautiful courtyard of their home, which has been taken care of every day.

Accompanied by the crisp ringing of the wind chimes on the eaves, Chacha hugged the chubby Yukitarou who was wearing a triangular scarf, followed by Yukishijiro Yukizaburo Yukishiro... a total of ten rabbits, like a locomotive leading the way, led a group of rabbits behind them. A string of small tails running around on the grass in the yard.

And here, Hui is holding a grooming brush and is seriously brushing the hair of the two dogs, black and white.

The white dog, which is bigger than the current Hui, sticks out its tongue and wags its tail. It shows its furry belly and is combed obediently, with a silly dog ​​expression that looks very comfortable; the other black dog puts its head on the On Hui's lap, squinting and patiently queuing.

Shikigami's hair is generally not tangle-free.

As special creatures that rely on mana to exist, they do not have the distress of ordinary animals in real life: they don’t need to eat, drink, or go to the toilet, and they don’t need regular inspections, sterilization, and vaccinations, and they don’t shed hair—the reason for the hair If the non-majeure factor falls, it does not count.

Simply the perfect pet companion.

Although from the point of view of a conjurer, keeping a powerful shikigami as a pet is simply wasteful and meaningless... But this theory obviously does not apply to the Kitazawa family.

The taciturn but soft-hearted Mr. Juling took the lead to subvert the traditional concept. Although he knew that they were shikigami, every time Uo went to the supermarket to buy something, he would still be attracted by the pet area and stand there with a serious face. Next to the shelf of animal toys, after he came back to his senses and left, there were magically "unnecessary" things in the shopping basket.

Once and twice, it became like this.

However, because the jade dog is a powerful shikigami summoned by the [ancestral magic formula] that the Chanyuan family is proud of, the dog toy Uo bought has a very short lifespan.

Usually, you can't survive two days, and three days is already the limit.

The only thing that survived was the combing brush.

Jade dogs like to groom very much.

For dogs who are close to humans and their families, this is not only a comfortable massage, but also a way to cling to people's arms with confidence.

Therefore, although there is no rigid need for grooming, Jade Dog still likes to turn out the grooming brush hidden by adults with its excellent sense of smell, then happily picks it up, turns around and chases after another dog Somebody who is free doesn't let go.

The smart Jade Dog wagged its tail without a teacher and kept whining and coquettish, conveying its expectations with its invincible real dog eyes.

...the success rate is as high as [-]%.

The groomer who was caught by the jade dog today is obviously Kei who is a Shikigami envoy.

Under the premise that the whole family is free, the dog really likes to cling to his little master the most.

And Hui next door.

Tsumiki and Mr. Curling are weaving scarves.

Six long and warm balls of cashmere wool were evenly placed beside the two of them, and three strands of thread were wound on the needle, and the scarf with beautiful patterns was formed little by little with the movements of the two of them.

The cashmere wool in both hands is warm red.

Tsumiki is a novice on the road, and the movements of holding the needle are very jerky.Although Uno taught her the simplest knitting method, as long as you repeat the fixed simple steps, Tsumiki, who tried it for the first time, would still miss stitches or make mistakes from time to time, so she had to go back and start again. So that the progress is very slow.

In addition, it is difficult for her to control the strength of each stitch at the same level. The hook thread is sometimes tight and sometimes loose, and the knitted scarf is inevitably a little crooked, and some places show signs of looseness.

But in any case, it is much more beautiful than the hole cloth that Mr. Cursing Ling wove for the first time. When Uosheng was learning to do it for the first time, he tore the thread several times because he did not control his strength. It's also opened, and the finished product just finished is just like being scratched and kicked by a cat after years of wind and frost.

Uosu stamped the certification with a serious face.

"...Although Dad said so, it's still embarrassing to take this out."

With the help of Mr. Cursing Spirit, Tsumiki finished. She spread out the red scarf in her hand, lifted it up to look at it, and then said helplessly.

She weaved for two days, and only hurriedly weaved one when Uosheng had already completed three.

Still crooked.

Tsumiji put away her work embarrassingly and hugged it in her arms, "I'll take it apart and weave it again later."

"..."

Mr. Manu Ling's movements paused for a moment, then he speeded up silently.

He neatly closed his scarf, then shook it, and gently covered it on Tsumiji's head.

The cashmere scarf is soft, smooth and very light and warm.

Tsumiji looked up slightly in a daze, took off the scarf on her head with one hand, and stroked the slightly crooked magic glasses with the other hand, and then the novice handicraft on her lap was suddenly taken away. gone.

"dad?"

"May I exchange this... for yours?"

Mr. Curse, who took away Tsumiki's work, held the crooked scarf in both hands, then leaned forward with his upper body, bent his back, lowered his too tall body, and directly lowered the height of his field of vision. The man with black skin and white hair used Asked in his own deep and hoarse voice.

Tsumiki's gaze stayed on the scarf she wove.

"But, but." She stammered, "There are several places where the knitting is wrong..."

Tsumiki likes these interesting handicrafts, so she asked her father to teach her not long ago.

Although she did have the idea of ​​giving one to each of her family members in case the weaving was good... But the novice work she made for the first time was obviously not within the definition of "good-looking".

Tsumiji really couldn't deliver.

The thought of giving such a scarf to her cherished family made the little girl even more embarrassed.

However, Mr. Manu Ling held on to the scarf silently, and his dark red eyes looked at Tsu Miki motionlessly.

Tsumiji: "I can re-knit one and give it to you."

Mr. Curse Spirit remained silent.

Tsumiki: "I'm sure I can make it look better next time?"

Mr. Curse Spirit remained silent.

Tsumiki: ...

At that moment, she seemed to see the scene of Xiaobai, a jade dog with a grooming brush in her mouth, sitting silently in front of her begging for brushes.

It just so happens that they are all white hair... No, what am I thinking!

Tsumiji held back a smile, and the words of refusal changed as soon as she turned her throat: "...if you don't mind."

Mr. Hu Ling immediately put on the crooked scarf silently.

The temperature is now in the early ten degrees, and it is just right to wear a scarf.

Uosu also took out the two he had knitted earlier, both of the same color scheme, and gave them to the remaining Chacha Kazumi.

Mr. Juling, who took turns helping Chacha and Hui patiently wrap the handmade cashmere scarves, squatted and looked at his three children. The same color circles around their necks always made Mr. Juling involuntarily feel satisfied.

He wanted to shake his bony tail, but because he was held down by a chubby rabbit, he resisted the urge with difficulty.

"Speaking of it." The squatting Mr. Curse Ling said slowly: "Tomorrow... are you all free?"

"Tomorrow?" Chacha tilted her head.

"Actually, editor Hiramatsu gave me some movie tickets. The time is tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon. If you are free, would you like to go together?" Uosuke said simply, and then took the four movie tickets in his pocket. out.

Tsumiji: "Will Dad go with me?"

"Yeah." Uzumaki nodded.

"Then go!" Chacha was the first to raise her hand.

"What movie?" Hui, who couldn't get up because of the dog's legs, looked up and asked, with a hint of expectation in his tone.

"Let me take a look." Tsumiji walked over to look, and read out hesitantly: "What is written on it is... Crayon Shin-chan: Beyond Dimension and Space: My Bride Who Calls the Wind and Rain?"

"Editor Hiramatsu said it's a very popular animation movie." Uno nodded, and then added.

But Hui's expression froze instantly.

The original anticipation of going out to play with his family was poured cold water by the weird movie title at that moment. The little guy with black hair and green eyes opened his mouth, and his voice was a bit stunned: "Huh?"

"It's a very famous anime." Tsumiki tilted his head, "Don't Hui know?"

"It's not a question of whether you've heard of it, or—"

Hui widened his green eyes, he opened his mouth and said, then paused, faltering for a while, Hui finally pursed his lips in a little disappointment, and muttered softly: "It's just a little strange that the ticket sent by Editor Pingsong ...why not a movie based on Dad's work."

The young reader who quietly followed his father's novel never said that he had been looking forward to the movie version for a long time.

Seiichi Yukimura, who is at the same table, seems to have watched it with his parents on the day of the premiere, and seriously suggested that Hui also watch it when he is free on weekends.

Hui was still hesitating whether he should speak or not. When he heard that Mr. Manju Ling offered to go to the cinema, he was quite looking forward to it, but it turned out that it was not the one he imagined.

"Actually, there are tickets for the night of the premiere, but you have to go to school that day, so I didn't say it in the end." Uosu innocently replied: "And that plot is not suitable for children to watch. It's a horror movie, and although it's not forbidden for children, I'm personally not sure if you can accept it."

"Bride A Thousand" is a movie of human nature. Although it is a thriller, it actually does not have any substantive violent and bloody plots. Because there are still a certain amount of supernatural fragments in the plot, it is classified as PG12.

PG12, that is, minors under the age of 12 are advised to accompany their parents to watch movies.

On the Japanese side, movies with a general level of horror, violence, and mild sexuality are included in this category.But this standard is actually very delicate, and some movies that have been considered out of scale by other countries can also be included.

"We've all read the novel version, and it's actually quite acceptable." Tsumiji tilted her head. In fact, she was also looking forward to seeing the movie adapted from her father's script. The reason for supporting her family alone was enough to make her She put "Bride Aqian" at the top of her wish list, but...

"Where's Chacha?" Tsumiji looked at their youngest little sister, "Which one does Chacha want to see?"

Chacha's little face was all tangled up, and she lingered for a long time, and finally said dejectedly, "I want to see it."

Whether it's Papa's movies or cartoons, Chacha is hard to let go.

Uo finally suggested: "Then go see A-Chien this afternoon, and watch cartoons tomorrow?"

"Is it ok? Can I go to see it for two days in a row?" The three little ones raised their heads.

Mr. Curse Spirit: "Well...if you can buy a ticket."

So, afternoon.

The Kitazawa family of four went out wearing uniform red cashmere scarves.

The tickets for "Bride A Thousand" were purchased by Tsumiji - most girls grow faster in elementary school, at least eight-year-old Tsumiki is much taller than seven-year-old Hui, for Tsumiki, as long as Fake your age a little bit, pretend you're 12, and you'll be fine.

But having said that, cinemas in the Yokohama area in this era do not seem to be so strict and professional.

Many children sneaked money to buy tickets to watch those R15+ bloody and violent movies, and they passed the test smoothly.It seems that as long as you are old enough to kill yourself and your appearance is not too outrageous, the conductor will not care about the actual age of the customer. When entering the venue, as long as you walk with the crowd, the conductor will not pay extra attention.

.

The headquarters of LME Entertainment is in Tokyo.

Tokyo and Yokohama are very close, and it takes an average of just over 20 minutes by train. From the station to the company, it takes less than 10 minutes by subway.

Therefore, Mr. Rowley Takada, the president of the rich and powerful LME firm, after consulting the opinions of the parties and evaluating them, the location of the apartment for the Akutagawa brothers and sisters and Chuya is still in Yokohama.

Of course, President Raleigh Takada wanted the three of them to stay in the office at the very beginning.

Anyway, the LME family has a big business, and the company has a lot of lounges that can be remodeled--Luo Libaotian's exaggerated COSPLAY, which even remodels the environment on a whim every day, costs a lot, and renovating the lounge is just a simple matter.

But Naihe those three little guys were not very happy.

To be precise, Nakahara Nakahara was also reluctant to leave Yokohama, so Ryunosuke and Gin, who unconditionally protected their families, were not happy either.

Yokohama is the place where Nakahara Chuya was born, and his missing past is also there.

Nakahara did not give up looking for his own background, he always believed that Yokohama had the answer he wanted to know.

So after the discussion, things became like this.

Under the arrangement of the company, the three small children in the slum were moved to live in the safest apartment building in Kanagawa District, and they also entered the school nearby.

Ten-year-old Chuya, eight-year-old Ryunosuke, and six-year-old Gin entered the same elementary school in April. None of them had any orthodox study experience, so Gin and Ryunosuke, who are not too far apart in age, entered the same elementary school normally. , became the first grade of primary school, and the ten-year-old Zhongye was too old because of his status, so he was a little abrupt in the first grade, but his knowledge level was ridiculously low...so he reluctantly transferred to the third grade.

President Luo Li Baotian: "Although I agree with you to go out and live on your own, you have to accept the premise that Furuichi's assistant will visit you every three days... Dudu! The refusal is invalid, otherwise you will stay with the Tokyo company. It is a great risk for you three little ones to live outside."

The three little ones agreed slowly.

They finally have a warm little home... their life has been very peaceful recently.

On Saturday, the child star's debut went smoothly, and Yin, who had no job recently, was taken out by his two elder brothers to relax.

They made up their minds to support Yin's first movie-although there were not many scenes, the older brothers couldn't bear to watch the outstanding performance of the younger sister.

These three people went to buy tickets quite confidently.

As an aborigine who grew up in Yokohama, Akutagawa Ryunosuke went to buy tickets with an expressionless face.

Of course the money came from Chuya and Ryunosuke.

There is still a large part of their savings accumulated in the slums. After they have a new residence and do not need to worry about buying a house, this seemingly small amount of savings becomes particularly impressive.

Taking my sister out to rest, it is impossible to spend my sister's money back.

Although the two elder brothers are proud of Yin's excellence, they are inevitably ashamed and distressed by being brought up by the youngest sister in turn. They wish to grow up where they are and go to work every day.With such a mood, even after the two of them took care of the housework and three meals a day, as well as the safety issues when Yin went out to work, they still couldn't let go of it for a long time.

So... At least Yin's expenses for going out to have fun today must be covered by them!
