"Ouch... Black Cat, wait."
Seeing his son scrambling to his feet while clutching his head, he quickly regained his senses and said:
"Liuli, I was walking too fast and accidentally bumped into this... young man."
Ruri Gokou was half-believing and half-doubting, her gaze still fixed on Aoba with great suspicion, clearly showing a strong wariness towards him.
"Um, sorry."
Yotsuya Miko stood up and bowed slightly to Aoba.
Only then did he get a clear look at the girl's face.
With her blue hair and golden eyes, she's a typical beautiful girl.
The girl's tired and listless eyes looked as if she was about to die suddenly.
"nothing."
Aoba shook his head.
Instead, she looked at Yotsuya Miko with some concern:
"You're the one... Are you really alright?"
"fine..."
Yotsuya Miko shook her head with a wry smile, her eyes originally fixed on Aoba.
But Aoba always felt that she was glancing at the empty space next to her out of the corner of her eye.
"Is there...something there?"
As Aoba spoke.
Yotsuya Miko's expression instantly turned terrified.
As if they had seen something extremely terrifying, their golden eyes completely lost their luster.
"See you!"
Ruri Gokou knew that Miko Yotsuya might have the ability to see things that ordinary people couldn't.
But she never imagined that seeing those things would put so much pressure on Yotsuya Miko!
"Uh..."
Is it something dirty?
Aoba looked suspiciously at Yotsuya Miko, whose breathing was rapid, her pupils shrank, and even the knuckles of her fingers gripping the hem of her clothes turned white.
He had some vague suspicions in his mind.
After all, this world has seen even monsters, so the existence of ordinary ghosts and monsters is perfectly normal.
only. . .
According to what Nurarihyon and Otome said before.
Ordinary ghosts and monsters are things that even weak monsters despise.
Rather than calling them ghosts or monsters, they should be called vengeful spirits.
It is formed from the resentment of a deceased person in life.
They lack self-awareness.
They act purely out of resentment and instinct.
And that corner.
Qingye frowned as she looked, and seemed to be able to vaguely see the beginnings of a shadow.
I was just trying to focus my attention on it.
The result is the next second.
"Don't look!!"
Yotsuya Miko immediately turned Aoba's face around in her arms.
The two of them stood there staring at each other in front of the shop.
Aoba could clearly see the tears welling up in the girl's golden eyes.
She was terrified!
However, this wasn't reflected in his facial expressions.
He whispered softly in Aoba's ear, his voice trembling:
"Don't look! Don't look!"
The girl's breath startled Aoba.
perhaps...
The fact that only the girl could see the filth must have put her under extreme stress.
After letting out a soft sigh.
Aoba clenched his fists, gently embracing the girl, a slight smile playing on his lips:
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
His tone was very gentle.
The slight warmth and fragrance emanating from her body made Jianzi tremble slightly.
It seems like it's been a long time since I've felt this way.
It feels very warm.
Seeing that Zi's fingers, which had been gripping the hem of her clothes, had relaxed at some point.
She looked very intently into those eyes that were focused solely on her, and then...
She closed her eyes and buried her head heavily in Qingye's broad embrace.
It was as if at this very moment.
She was able to experience the most peaceful moments in the world.
Even if it's just an embrace.
And just a few seconds later.
A chilling sensation instantly swept over Qingye's entire body.
It sent a chill down his spine.
Is this what the girl meant by "dirty thing"?
Feeling the cold, damp aura emanating from her, Aoba felt a pang of sympathy for Miko's plight.
I had to face all of this alone.
This child has had a tough time!
However, for some reason, he felt that the feeling didn't last long before it disappeared.
It probably just gave him a chill.
There's no after that.
"Hey!"
How long are you two going to keep hugging?!
"Don't cause the store manager any unnecessary trouble!"
The other girl's unique voice instantly brought Miko to her senses.
Seemingly realizing her current state, she hurriedly broke free from Qingye's embrace.
"S-Sorry!"
"It's alright, that thing should be gone by now, right?"
"It seems...yes."
"That's good."
Aoba nodded to the two of them and pointed inside the bakery.
He was indicating that he wanted to go inside.
"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you."
Yotsuya Miko quickly pulled Gokou Ruri aside to make way for her.
"Thank you."
"It's ok!"
After Aoba entered the shop.
Ruri Gokou then pulled Miko Yotsuya aside, her tone full of curiosity:
"Jianzi, you didn't fall for him the moment you met him, did you!?"
"How can it be!"
Yotsuya Miko 3.5 quickly shook her head.
She had only hugged him out of necessity to avoid the vengeful spirit.
but. . .
The sense of security he exudes is indeed very appealing.
I just don't know where that vengeful spirit went.
The vengeful spirits she encounters on a daily basis are either wandering the streets looking for targets, or they will cling to someone and refuse to leave.
But that vengeful spirit had clearly been staying in this shop all along.
It was only because she stopped Aoba from looking that her ability to see vengeful spirits was exposed.
