C took a puff of his cigarette stick and slowly exhaled white smoke.

"It turned out to be like this, but I didn't expect there to be such a thing in this world. It's a lot of fun. ”

"Can you think of a way?"

C glanced at Kakashi and said, "Cut, what does the human thing have to do with me. ”

With that, C got up and prepared to leave.

She doesn't like humans, and she doesn't like men.

So, I won't have a good impression of Kakashi either.

Seeing that C was leaving, Kakashi was a little helpless.

This female monster is really a little hard to talk to.

"I can tell you about Reiko in exchange." Kakashi said suddenly.

"What!"

Startled, C quickly turned around and stared at Kakashi tightly.

"What do you say? Say it again! ”

"I'm willing to exchange Reiko's message for you, what do you think? You should be thinking about Reiko a lot, right? Kakashi laughed.

Reiko Natsume, Natsume's grandmother.

It is also an existence that can see youkai clearly.

And her demonic power is also much stronger than Natsume's.

So, her experience is similar to Natsume's.

It's just that compared to Natsume, Reiko is stronger and stronger.

C and Reiko used to have a relationship, and C had a deep affection for Reiko.

In other words, C admires Reiko very much.

But after a while, C never saw Reiko again.

Even after some searching, there was no news from Reiko.

In desperation, C had no choice but to give up.

C stared at C tightly, with a slight cold light in his eyes.

"You know Reiko?"

"Know."

"You still know about me and Reiko? How do you know? Could it be that Reiko told you? C asked.

"I can't answer this question for you, how about it? Are you willing to accept this deal? Kakashi laughed.

C frowned, looking directly at Kakashi, hoping to see something in those eyes.

But it's a pity that Kakashi can't be seen through so easily.

"Who the hell is this guy? Why do you know these things? And the strange power in his body is even stranger, if it is a hard fight, I am not his opponent. He doesn't seem to have any ill intentions either, what a strange human being. ”

C said secretly in his heart, and thoughts kept coming.

Kakashi wasn't in a hurry either, just watched C quietly, waiting for her to recover.

C took another puff of his cigarette and said, "I can promise your deal, but I don't have a good way to deal with this situation for the time being." All I can say is promise you, I will do my best. ”

"That's enough, thank you." Kakashi laughed.

"You believe me?" C was a little confused.

"Of course, since you've made your promises, there's nothing I can't tell you."

"You're not like a normal human." C was surprised.

"I'll just treat you as a compliment to me."

"Since you believe me, then tell me, where is Reiko? I've been looking for her for a long time. C asked.

"Reiko is dead, and it's been a long time."

"What!"

C was shocked, he never expected that Kakashi's mouth would get such information.

"How is this possible!"

"For youkai, the life of a human being is very short. Maybe you don't care, but it's been many years since you met. Kakashi sighed and said.

The time of youkai is different from that of people.

Youkai sometimes take years to sleep, but humans don't.

The lifespan of humans and the lifespan of youkai are also completely incomparable.

This is the situation in this world.

The life of a human being, for youkai, is just a white horse.

This is also the reason why many youkai are reluctant to come into contact with humans.

Because it was so short.

In a short time, it is likely that when you wake up, your original friend will become gray-haired.

In a short time, it is possible to wake up again, and that fate has been buried in the ground for a long time.

Don't get married, add to loneliness.

That feeling of loss is something that no one wants to experience a second time.

When C heard this, he was stunned.

After a long time, Bingcai sighed and said, "Yes." It's been a long time. Human beings are really fragile lives. ”

Seeing C's appearance, Kakashi also knew that she probably remembered the time she spent with Reiko.

Having said that, Reiko is really a magical existence.

"Human, I wrote down your business, where do you live? If I think of a way, I'll tell you. ”

C wasn't in a good mood at this time, so she didn't want to stay here any longer.

"I'm living at the shrine here."

"Shrine? That place of the mountain god? Well, I got it. ”

After saying that, C turned and left.

"Hopefully she'll figure it out."

Kakashi looked at the time and decided to go to the town first.

It's almost time now.,Yesterday I promised Natsume that I'm going to see him today.。

If you don't go, I'm afraid this teenager will be very disappointed.

Park.

As soon as Natsume got out of school, he hurried towards here.

There was a smile of anticipation on his face.

The park gradually came into view, and the smile on the corner of Natsume's mouth became more and more obvious.

"It's here! Almost there! ”

Natsume stood panting at the entrance of the park, but it was empty.

"No one? Isn't Big Brother Kakashi here yet? ”

The original joy disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was replaced by a kind of loss.

"Kakashi-sama, isn't it?"

Natsume was a little worried.

He was afraid of this loss, it was terrible.

"Natsume, you're here early."

A languid voice rang in Natsume's ears.

The originally lost face was filled with smiles again.

"Kakashi-sama!"

Natsume turned his head and wanted to pounce on Kakashi.

But thinking of something, Natsume forcibly stopped this behavior.

"Sorry, I just went to buy something, so I'm late."

Kakashi said, pulling out a bag of steamed buns.

"This is Nanatsujiya's steamed buns, I heard that they are delicious, I went to buy them on purpose, do you want to give it a try?"

Kakashi took out a white steamed bun from the bag and handed it to Natsume-chan.

Natsume was stunned, but took it anyway.

Kakashi himself picked one up again and said, "It's still hot, let's eat it quickly." ”

As he spoke, Kakashi took a bite of it.

"Well, it tastes good, no wonder it's so popular."

Xiao Natsume also reacted at this time, looking at the white steamed bun in his hand, the corners of his eyes were slightly moist.

"What's wrong? Natsume, don't you want to taste it? It's delicious. Kakashi laughed.

"Hmm!"

Natsume answered, and then took a bite gently.

"Whew, it's hot."

Accidentally, Natsume-chan was burned in the mouth.

"Hahaha, be careful, there's still a bit of temperature." Kakashi laughed.

Xiao Natsume was a little embarrassed, and after blowing the steamed bun, he bit it down again.

The fluffy steamed buns do make people have a bit of an aftertaste.

Natsume felt like she had never eaten such a delicious steamed bun.

"How?" Kakashi asked with a smile.

Xiao Natsume nodded again and again and said, "It's so delicious!" ”

"If you like it, this bag is for you."

Kakashi handed a bag of steamed buns to Natsume-chan.

"This ...... That's too much. ”

"Not much, there are only seven in a bag, we just ate two and there are only five in it. It's not big, so it's a snack. ”

"Thank you......"

Natsume clenched the bag in her hand, and a warmth welled up in her heart.

On a park bench, the two sat on it again.

"Kakashi-san, what are you doing?" Natsume asked curiously.

"Well, I'm a ninja." Kakashi smiled mysteriously.

"Ninja? Is it the kind of spy killer the book says it is? Natsume was surprised.

"Well, it's still a little different, I'm much better than the ninjas you know."

"Is Kakashi-sama powerful?" Natsume said curiously.

"Of course, for example, the youkai you've seen are no match for me."

"Really? That Kakashi-sama is too powerful. Unlike me, I'm often bullied by youkai. ”

Natsume said, bowing her head, looking a little gloomy.

Seeing this, Kakashi reached out and rubbed Natsume-chan's brown hair.

This boy really bears a lot of pain that doesn't belong to him.

It's just that Kakashi can't do anything about it.

The atmosphere became dreary for a while.

Not far away, a child is practicing his bicycle.

His father was holding on to the saddle in the back to help him balance.

"Saburo is great, keep practicing, and soon you can learn to ride a bicycle."

"Hmmm! I will definitely make it! ”

The child named Saburo happily replied.

The two continued to practice on the outskirts of the park.

The sudden sound also attracted Natsume's attention.

In his eyes, it was longing.

Kakashi smiled at this, but didn't say anything more.

Time passed quickly, and after the two chatted for a while, it was time for Natsume to go home.

He didn't want to be late because it would cause trouble to others.

He is very sensible and does not want to do this.

"Kakashi-san, it's time for me to go back." Xiao Natsume said with some reluctance.

"Well, go ahead, I'll be here tomorrow too." Kakashi laughed.

"Really?" Natsume was pleasantly surprised.

"Nature is true."

"Hmmm! See you tomorrow with Brother Kakashi! ”

"Go ahead."

Natsume nodded and rushed home.

He's been delayed for a long time.

"Who are you? Why did you mess up with that kid? ”

At this time, a banshee with long dark green hair appeared next to Kakashi, and her words were a little unkind.

"Finally reluctant? I thought you'd keep hiding. Kakashi laughed.

The banshee was startled and said, "You already found me?" ”

Kakashi turned his head to look at the banshee and smiled, "Of course, from the very beginning when you appeared. It's just that you are hiding quietly, and there is no exposing you. What's wrong? Looking for me something? ”

The banshee took a step back and said viciously, "Boy! I advise you to leave this little imp, he is my prey! You are not allowed to get involved! I haven't had enough of it! ”

"I'm sorry, I can't say yes to your request. After all, I'm also interested in him. ”

"You're looking for death!"

The banshee pounced on Kakashi!

Claws stretched out from his hands.

Kakashi shook his head and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't be so impulsive. ”

With a movement of both hands, he took the banshee's hands.

A huge force struck, and the banshee couldn't move in an instant.

"Damn fellow! I'll kill you! ”

"You're the youkai who has been pestering Natsume lately, aren't you? Looks like you don't want to hurt him. Is it just because he's bored, that's why you're teasing him? Kakashi asked.

"You! What nonsense are you talking about! I didn't! That little ghost is just a human being, and if he can see me, he will naturally be punished! ”

The banshee seemed to have been revealed some secret, and said with some embarrassment.

"Well, what a dishonest guy. Forget it, as long as you don't hurt Natsume, I won't embarrass you. ”

Kakashi said, letting go of the banshee's arms.

The banshee regained her freedom, somewhat inexplicably.

What the hell was this silvery-haired man thinking?

"Let's go, don't go near Natsume recently."

"Why should I listen to you?" The banshee said coldly.

Kakashi scratched his head and said, "If you want to do this, I'm going to be bothered. If you don't listen, I'll have to seal you away. ”

"Seals?"

The banshee was startled and hurriedly retreated again.

"You're a demon slayer?"

"I can be if you want."

"Good! Count you ruthless, I'll go! But you wait for me, I won't let you go! ”

After the banshee finished speaking, she ran away in a puff of smoke.

This guy is just too dangerous.

Seeing the banshee leave, Kakashi smiled and said, "These youkai are pretty cute. ”

Forest of mountain gods, shrines.

Ah Yin sat on the stone next to the shrine, took off his mask, and looked into the distance.

The gaze seems to be exploring something.

"What do you think?"

Ah Yin was stunned for a moment, and looked back at the owner of the voice.

"Mr. Kakashi, are you back?"

"Well, just came back. What do you think? Did you send that little girl back? Kakashi laughed.

Ah Yin nodded and said, "Send it back." She had already found her grandfather and said she would come to see me tomorrow. ”

"Oh? Looks like you're doing a great job. ”

Ah Yin smiled and didn't speak.

"What? Are you worried about tomorrow's meeting? Kakashi laughed.

Ah Yin was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he still nodded.

"I'm not very good at communicating with humans."

"There's no difference between a human child and a youkai, don't worry."

"Really?" Ah Yin wondered.

"Don't worry. Besides, since she's not afraid that you're a youkai, there's no need to worry. ”

At this time, the mountain god floated out of the shrine.

"Ah Yin, if you interact with humans, don't fall too deep. The most important thing is not to let her touch you. You know? Flashing said solemnly.

"Grandpa Mountain God, I see."

"It's good to understand. If you can, don't come into contact with humans in the future. Ah Yin, you now belong to the Forest of Mountain Gods, not humans. ”

Ah Yin nodded, signaling that he understood, but that look looked a little lonely.
