Barbara's guest is a troublesome cat.

Relying on its delicate body, soft body, and flexible body, it emptied Kusanagi Izumo's cherished wine and wine cabinet once, and when Kusanagi Izumo dug out a feather duster from the attic and rushed out, he was covered in wine. The angry fat cat had already fallen asleep on the wine cabinet.

"Whoosh..."

The chubby cat has its feet up, revealing its soft belly and fluffy body, which looks easy to touch.

Do I still have to argue with a cat?

Not to mention it is so cute!

Kusanagi Izumo, who was hit by a cat at a certain moment, told himself this.

He walked over, intending to paw the cat to have fun. Anyway, this cat sleeps so deeply, even if it is bald, it won't wake up, Kusanagi Izumo thought without guilt.

But when his sight touched the large puddle of crystal liquid hanging by the cat's mouth, Kusanagi Izumo's eyes instantly became extremely disgusted, and the smile froze on his face.

Disgusting--

Why is this fat cat drooling so much while sleeping? His beloved wine cabinet has been defiled!

Absolutely want compensation!

Add in the money for the red wine, you cat is waiting to sell yourself to pay off the debt!

Kusanagi Izumo thought very modestly, and even thought of a way to retaliate.

It was already late at night, and the movement on the first floor did not wake up the two little girls who were asleep. One night passed, and the next day came soon. He was awakened by a familiar voice.

"It's too much, hurry up and untie the rope tied around my neck, my uncle is not a dog!"

Eh?Is this the voice of Teacher Cat?

Xuezhi's eyes lit up, and she quickly thought, since Mr. Cat is here, will Natsume be here too?

The joy in the girl's eyes almost overflowed.

She lifted the quilt, quickly put on a white sweater, put on her shoes and ran to the door. When she unscrewed the doorknob, her steps suddenly stopped. From the angle she was standing, she could see the dressing Mirror on the cabinet.Under the soft sunlight, the girl in the mirror was obviously just waking up, with short disheveled hair and sleepy eyes.

Isn't this look too casual...

Thinking of this, Xuezhi felt that his face was inexplicably hot.

Wanting Natsume to see a better version of herself, the idea came naturally.

So let's sort it out a little bit.

She walked to the front of the mirror, bent over and straightened her somewhat messy hair, opened her blue eyes, and smiled at herself in the mirror, when Anna's voice suddenly came from her ear, "Are you here?" what to do?"

Ah, found out!

For some reason, Xuezhi felt her heart beating faster than usual, and when she met Anna's curious gaze, she felt somewhat lacking in confidence.

"It's nothing... I'll go downstairs first..."

Feeling a little embarrassed, Xuezhi ran downstairs quickly, and heard Teacher Mao's noisy voice again, "I will never sell myself! Let me go!"

"I came to find Xuezhi girl with an important mission."

Kusanagi Izumo raised his eyebrows calmly, hung a sign around the cat's neck, folded his arms and said, "I just know that you ruined my two bottles of good wine worth six figures last night, so you have to sell yourself today." Pay off your debt."

Mr. Kitty wanted to jump up and give Kusanagi Izumo a paw, but his action was restrained by the leash on the man, "You bastard put this kind of thing on me while I was asleep, what are you doing? Look who! This uncle is not really such a soft four-legged animal!"

"And this sign! It even says something as stupid as touching ten yuan once!"

"Ten yuan! I can't even afford a red bean paste bun, so it must be 300 yen!"

Xuezhi approached lightly, and felt that Mr. Cat was yelling so much that the roof was almost torn off.

At the same time, she noticed the sign hanging on Teacher Cat, she smiled softly, turned her eyes away from Teacher Cat, and subconsciously looked for Natsume's figure, the front of the wine cabinet, the sofa, the door... Where is Natsume?

While searching, her eyes connected with Mr. Cat.

"—"

"Xuezhi, you girl...!!!"

"Such a big cat teacher is in front of you, what are you looking for!"

Xuezhi blinked, but still couldn't hold back, "Isn't Natsume here?"

"Idiot, isn't that obvious?"

"Oh……"

Although the girl didn't say much, she couldn't hide her slightly lowered eyelids and her instantly disappointed expression.

"That's enough—"

"You girl, don't you notice that I'm being enslaved at all?"

Teacher Kitty said angrily.

"I heard just now that Mr. Cat secretly drank from brother Izumo's bar..." Xuezhi glanced at Mr. Cat, and said in a low voice, "If Natsume was here, Mr. Cat would not let you run amok. "

Seeing that Teacher Mao's face was getting worse and worse, Xuezhi hurriedly made amends, "Okay, okay, I'll pay back the money with you, I also have a salary now."

"Brother Izumo, can you not let Mr. Cat sell himself to pay off the debt?"

The cat stood up in an instant, with a proud look, and said to Kusanagi Izumo, "Hey, did you hear that, let me go quickly, I have something important to tell Xuezhi!"

Izumo Kusanagi raised his eyebrows, remembering that when Mr. Cat visited last night as a girl, he was indeed carrying a long thing wrapped in cloth on his back, so is the important thing related to that thing?

Urged by Mr. Cat, Izumo Kusanagi let go of the pet leash in his hand, and Mr. Cat, who was freed from the restraint, jumped up from the wine cabinet, shook his chubby body, and came to the Snow Branch's feet.

"what is this?"

Xuezhi squatted down.

"This is Natsume's entrance gift to you."

Mr. Cat hugged his two paws, shook his legs and said, "Open it and have a look."

"Did Natsume give it to me?"

Xuezhi raised her head, her eyes sparkled when she spoke, "What is it?"

"You'll know when you open it!" Mr. Cat said, "Anyway, if it's you, no matter what gift you receive, you'll be so excited that you won't be able to sleep!"

"I don't sleep during the day..." Xuezhi blushed and retorted softly.

Shi Shu, who came over to watch, laughed out loud when he heard this, and stroked the girl's soft hair, "Actually, I can't be overjoyed to receive a gift from an important person. It’s cute even if you boldly show that you like it!”

Xuezhi raised the corners of her mouth, and while nodding her head, she unwrapped the strips of cloth wrapped around the long strips.

"Look at the weapon that is as long as a sword." Kusanagi said.

At this time, Xuezhi had already removed the cloth strips wrapped around the outside, and the gift revealed its true colors. What caught the eye was a silver-white scabbard with simple patterns on it, which shone like sparkles in the sun. .

"It's really a beautiful knife, Xuezhi, □□ have a look."

Xuezhi nodded, the moment the knife was pulled out of the silver sheath, there was a cold light, Xuezhi seemed to feel the aura coming towards her face, which also contained the breath belonging to Xia Mu.

She lightly rubbed the lines on the knife, "This knife was made by Natsume herself, right?"

"You guessed it all?!"

Teacher Cat explained, "Because there are a lot of materials that can be used in that place, and then, that guy suddenly thought excitedly one day that maybe he could give you a gift."

"That idiot doesn't have the talent to be a knifesmith at all. If it weren't for my guidance, he wouldn't be able to forge such a beautiful knife."

Of course Xuezhi knew that Teacher Mao was bragging too much about her achievements, but she still couldn't help smiling while holding the sword, "So that's how it is."

The cat teacher's credit is probably just not to make trouble for Natsume.

she thought to herself.

Shi Shu saw the smiling expression of the little girl, but a very sad thought came to his mind.

Although this kind of thinking is really bad, but——

The probability that Xuezhi will sleep with this knife at night is as high as 90.00%.

Mr. Cat didn't know about Shishu's sorrow at all, he hummed a few times, and teased Xuezhi again, "Besides the knife, Natsume has one more thing for you."

"What is it?"

Xuezhi asked impatiently.

The cat smirked, and said very confidently, "If you want, you can take bean paste buns, tempura, dorayaki, octopus balls..." Teacher Cat gave more than ten kinds of dishes without panting.

"Wait... I said it too quickly... Forget it, I will give you my salary card, and Teacher Cat can buy it by himself."

Xuezhi took out her salary card from the pocket of the sweater and handed it to Teacher Mao.

"etc……!!"

Before the cat's paw touched Xuezhi's salary card, Kusanagi Izumo snatched it quickly, "How can you just hand over the salary card to others, Xiao Xuezhi, you dote on this cat too much."

"It got your payroll card and will definitely spend all your money!"

Kusanagi Izumo sighed, and said to Yukie, "Extend your hand."

Xuezhi stretched out her hand obediently, and Kusanagi Izumo put the salary card back in her palm, "Put it away."

Then Kusanagi Izumo bent down to pick up Mr. Cat, and ruaed a few times, "Stop making trouble, you cat, obediently hand over the things to Xuezhi, and I won't pursue your drink money."

"And give you a glass of whiskey for free."

"One cup is to see who is missing! At least ten cups!"

Teacher Cat has always been very good at pushing his limits.

"make a deal."

Kusanagi Izumo said.

"Then you can give the things to Xiao Xuezhi now." Kusanagi Izumo knocked on the table and said.

"Here it is, here, Natsume's letter."

Teacher Cat handed a small letter to Xuezhi, "Hurry up if you want to write a reply, or you won't wait until it's too late."

"Thank you, Mr. Cat."

Xuezhi hugged Teacher Cat happily, "Then I'll go back to my room and write a letter now."

"Couldn't it be possible to write in front of my brother?" Toku Tara sighed faintly as he watched the back of the little girl running up the stairs.

"Brother, I'm sorry..."

Xue Zhi heard Shi Shuu's words, and ran down a few more steps. She poked her head out from behind the staircase wall, said something in a low voice, and quickly ran back to the room before attracting more burning gazes.

Just bumped into Anna who got up and came out.

The girl stared at her with a pair of red eyes, and said in a calm tone, "You are a bit strange."

"No."

"I am normal."

Xuezhi defended herself.

"okay."

Anna paused, with a super-mature expression on her childlike face, staring into Xuezhi's eyes, "I understand." After speaking, Anna walked out of the room gracefully, and closed the door behind her.

I am normal.

Brother also said just now, it is also a cute expression to be ecstatic when receiving a gift from an important person.

That's all.

Xuezhi sat in front of the small table, opened the white envelope, and took out the letter paper inside, her fingertips trembling slightly, she didn't want to be so happy and looking forward to it, but it was a letter from Natsume to her!

The heart in the chest was beating happily.

Under the bright light, the girl carefully read the contents of the letter word by word, her eyelashes drooping slightly, and the sunlight streamed on her beautiful face, winding down to her fingertips.

"To Xuezhi:

When I received this letter, I think your body and memory have already recovered. I’m sorry, but I promised you to create new memories at an earlier time during your experience of becoming smaller. , In the end, I became the one who released the pigeons. I also feel a little guilty when I think that you will feel lost because of my departure.

But I also know, Xuezhi, you are a brave person, after taking that step, it is already a new life.Now you think back to the experience of becoming smaller, there will be times of pain and sadness, but after feeling kindness and being treated gently by others, have you strengthened your heart and want to work hard to live... I miss you I already have the answer in my heart.

Closer to home, considering that you may need a good weapon, I asked Mr. Cat to bring you a Taidao. This Taidao was not made by a famous swordsmith, but I forged it myself. Mr. Cat kept saying I don't have the talent for forging knives, but Token Fusangshen's evaluation of this Tai Dao is not bad, but I don't know if you use it well, so next time we meet again, please tell me the evaluation of the sword.

Finally, I hope you are healthy and happy.

Natsume Takashi. "

——Natsume Takashi.

Xuezhi gently stroked the inscription on the lower right corner with her fingertips, a certain kind of boiling emotion boiled in her chest, it was hard to suppress, an intuition emerged in her heart, the reason why Natsume would write the letter was to make up for the past. Brain burnt letters.

The feeling of being cared for by Natsume.

So happy.

Xuezhi raised the corners of her lips, carefully folded the letter and put it in her pocket, then took out a clean white paper and began to write a reply.

She wrote a lot of things in the letter, two or three full pages, and the thin envelope was stuffed bulgingly by her. After seeing it, Teacher Cat mocked her for writing nonsense literature!

Xuezhi retorted angrily, "That's not it."

She stuffed a strawberry Daifuku into Teacher Cat's mouth to stop him from chattering.

After Mrs. Cat ate and drank enough, she left with her chubby belly.

Xuezhi was sitting on the sofa lovingly stroking her new favorite knife, looking like she really liked it.

Shi Shu walked over, "Xuezhi, do you know how to use swordsmanship?"

Xuezhi shook her head, "No."

According to Xuezhi's simple and rude way of thinking, when facing the enemy, just hold the sword and slash at the enemy.

"Then is there any sword master in your school?"

"I think should not be."

Xue Zhi recalled that during the usual training, Yi Gu and Maki, who used magic tools, usually practiced by themselves, and she had never seen Wujo teacher use a sword, so there is a high probability that there is no sword master.

"Scepter4's Yoshijo Koichi is a master with swords, and there is a sword-drawing ceremony every time there is a mission, and the training in kendo is quite strict." Kusanagi Izumo said.

"The Yatogami Kuro of the Shirogane Clan is also quite good at it."

"Speaking of the black dog, then his brother Yu Shaoshen Zi is also an excellent fellow, but he is from the Green King." Izumo Kusanagi evoked a smile that was not a smile, "The Green King's people have been very busy recently. It's restless."

Xuezhi tilted her head, her eyes were wide open, she didn't understand what she heard, but fortunately, the two of them changed the subject quickly.

"By the way, can you send Xuezhi to secretly learn a few tricks for the sake of cooperation between Barbara and Qingzu?" Shishu Duoliang asked suddenly.

"Right now, the youth group doesn't have the intention to teach people. Why don't you ask the black dog to be more reliable. The Silver King seems to be quite easy to talk to." Kusanagi Izumo felt that his suggestion was more reliable.

"Who is the black dog?"

"It's a man with long hair and a ponytail. Xuezhi should have seen him in Weizhong Academy."

Hearing what Kusanagi said, Yukie also remembered, "So his name is Yatogami Gorou."

"It doesn't matter if you can't find a teacher. I have two classmates who are very good at using knives. You can just learn from them." Xuezhi looked at Kusanagi and Shishu and said.

"Ann, I'll try to get in touch with you."

Ten Shu stroked Xuezhi's hair, "With such a good knife, wouldn't it be a waste if you don't learn swordsmanship well?"

"What's more, Xuezhi often encounters dangerous situations. Learning more skills means more life. I don't want my sister to get hurt." Shi Shu said.

The matter was decided in this way, Xuezhi didn't know if she could find a swordsmanship teacher in the end, but she quickly walked out of Barbara with the newly acquired knife on her back, planning to find a place to practice.

Find a place where curse spirits gather, such as hospitals or schools, by the way, and Yokohama. I heard from Mr. Gojo that because Yokohama has many people with supernatural powers, the curse spirits born from this are even worse than those in other places. easy to deal with.

Half an hour later, Xuezhi took a taxi directly to Yokohama.

After wandering around Yokohama for half an hour, Xuezhi couldn't figure it out, and muttered depressingly, "It's strange, when I came here last time, there was a curse everywhere, how come it's become so clean now."

"All of them are spell spirits below the fourth level. Let's not talk about the super-level and first-level spell spirits. Where are the second- and third-level spell spirits? Have they been exorcised by other magicians?"

Xuezhi couldn't figure it out, and planned to go back and ask Teacher Wutiao again.
