After choosing a big adventure at Lupine's Bar

After Odasaku left the living room earlier, he went to his bedroom.

Just as he told Ming Yin, he was tidying up the room just now.

The few personal items were scattered around the cabinets.

He lifted up the paper talisman that covered his eyebrows, rubbed the pulp of his index finger lightly on the dried ink marks, and looked at the light cast by the indoor lamp through the paper talisman.

There are also many little monsters in the room.

Spherical, with head and feet, floating in the air, bouncing on the ground, jumping over his bare instep, rushing out of the window, falling and then floating up, merged into the crowd, and went to the sky float away.

Odasaku squatted on the tatami, then simply sat down cross-legged, and took out the photo that was placed on the top from a pile of sundries.

This is one of the reasons why he insists that he has seen the inhabitants of the other side.

A supernatural photo taken more than 6 years ago.

The red-haired boy had a blank face, with a bright yellow fluffy chick headdress on his head, and he was looking at the empty side.The clothes on the wrists were wrinkled by something, and he forcibly made a V gesture.

There is someone on the right side of the empty screen.

But, I can't remember it, and I can't see it at all.

When he first mentioned this matter with May [-]th, he just suddenly remembered this photo, and then thought, he had to find it.

That's why today it's rare to stay in this place that is only used for sleeping to organize things.

Of course, his personal belongings were really pitiful, not much except clothes, so they were quickly found.

Before I could take a closer look, I heard a knock on the door, so I put it aside.

But just after talking about it with May [-]th, he realized that he couldn't remember who took this photo with.

Since when did you start forgetting?

Why would you forget?

He clearly remembered that this photo was once placed in the middle of the wallet he carried with him.

Until the first time he ate the curry from the western restaurant he often goes to, he accidentally got the curry on his wallet.

He temporarily kept the photos in a drawer in his rented house until the wallet was cleaned and the smell removed.

Afterwards, because the new job gradually got on the right track, I was busy with all kinds of trivial things every day at the beginning, and I forgot to take it out again as time went by.

He remembered all these things clearly.

At the same time, he was sure that until he took the photo out of his wallet, the photo was still complete in his eyes, and he also remembered who the other person in the photo was.

Was it because he was growing into a man that he became completely invisible?

I don't know where I heard this saying.

The ability to "see" may decline with age.

But it probably has nothing to do with this.

Although Oda Sakunosuke is born with an aura of exorcism, he is an "ordinary person" who has no inspiration at all, and will naturally not be affected by the natural law of "inspiration degradation".

Now, holding the sides of the photo in both hands, he studied it carefully.

The right side is still empty.

The photo is still incomplete.

"In other words, it's not a problem with spiritual vision..." Oda Saku ruled out a possibility.

He walked into the living room, "May [-]th..."

"Shh."

There was such an airy sound between the boy's lips and teeth.

The black mark spread on the back of the hand and the side of the face.

He wished he hadn't seen it.

Since deciding not to kill anyone, life has gradually become more routine.

Therefore, things that have never been seen before are so special, poking the brain nerves, and the steady and powerful heartbeat is transmitted.

Deja vu scenes, deja vu words.

I always feel like I'm about to think about it.

[The next time you meet, please treat him to a meal. 】

For example, when he remembered the first time he ate the curry made by the owner of the western restaurant, this idea came to his mind.

"May [-]th, can you have curry?"

"Hmm...? Well, yes."

Mingyin washed his hands and face with water in front of the sink, and An Wu subsided at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the black mist was still lingering.

Odasaku watched this scene quietly until the spell failed, he took off the talisman paper, crushed it and threw it into the trash can.

At the invitation of Odasaku, Akine (with ghost roommate) was led by him to his favorite western restaurant for lunch.

It's a relatively remote small shop that looks like it's been around for a while.

"Hey, Oda-chan, is it still the same?" The boss was stirring the vegetables with a spatula in one hand.

"Yes..." Oda Saku pulled the chair in front of the bar and sat down, "May [-]th, take a look at the menu... There are also non-spicy flavors."

"Oh, it's really rare. I brought someone else here...Oda-chan has very few friends."

"Ha..." Odasaku was noncommittal to the boss's statement.

Mingyin looked at the menu, and the special dish was spicy curry.

He can't really eat spicy food.

But the spicy curry is the specialty.

Mr. Oda Saku seems to eat this dish too.

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Mingyin decided to order a spicy curry.

"Do you really want to order this? It's really super spicy. If you don't usually eat spicy food, I suggest you not try it."

"Yes."

Odasaku looked at him like this, and said directly to the boss: "His spiciness is slightly lowered."

"okay."

Ah, damn it.

Mingyin was so ashamed that she covered her face with her hands and pressed it against the table, her toes curled up.

After the curry was served, Mingyin realized that he was really naive.Thank you Mr. Oda for your thoughtfulness.

The reddish curry sauce is mixed directly with the rice, and a small groove is dug out in the middle to hold the freshly beaten raw egg.

Huh?I always feel that even the steaming heat is a bit irritating to the eyes.

Mingyin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and used a spoon to stir the egg and rice while the egg was not completely solidified, then took a spoonful, slowly put it into her mouth, chewed it carefully a few times, and swallowed it.

The aroma of curry is very strong, and at the same time, it also has a mellow feeling. It neutralizes the stimulation of curry itself, making the taste softer and longer. It is estimated that coconut milk was added, but at the same time it has the smell of other spices. Half-cooked hot spring eggs It increases the richness and mellow taste of the taste, and it is mixed with the rice with distinct grains to form a perfect combination.

All in all, when I took the first bite, I had a good experience and didn't feel too spicy.

Just as he was thinking this way, starting from the tip of his tongue, extending deep into his throat, all the way to his stomach, it gradually burned.

Little by little, imperceptibly, let the pain form electrical signals gradually transmit to the brain, and Mingyin's mind is full of "so spicy".

He picked up the ice water on the side with one hand and poured it down in one gulp. While picking up the kettle to refill his glass, he looked at Odasaku with his usual expression, taking one sip after another.

"Is your stomach and esophagus made of iron?"

"I'm pretty good at spicy food, I'm used to it."

But Mingyin upholds the last dignity of not wasting food, even with tears in the corners of her eyes and red lips, she continues to eat while drinking ice water.

Honestly, it's delicious.

It's just too spicy.

It's so spicy that I can't taste other flavors anymore.

People who can eat spicy food may be able to do it, but Mingyin can't.

Odasaku observed Akine while he was concentrating on eating.

I only heard him muttering in a low voice, "Huh? Are you curious? Then try it."

As he said that, he changed inside.

Mingyin's roommate scooped up a spoonful of curry with curiosity on his face, put it into his mouth and chewed it in slow motion. Gradually, as he chewed, his brows frowned, and he repeated Mingyin's previous behavior, crying hotly while drinking. water, while continuing to eat.

After eating intermittently, Mingyin clasped his hands together, "Thank you for the hospitality, it's delicious."

"Excuse me, is there a bathroom here? I'm going to wash my face."

"Upstairs, just go up the stairs and turn left. Although it is usually not open to guests."

"Thank you..." The corners of Mingyin's eyes were still red, and the corners of her lips, which she wiped with a tissue, were stained with curry's reddish-brown color, and the mole became more conspicuous.

Odasaku carefully studied his face for the first time.

Something vague and vague came out of the cocoon from the bottom of my heart.

"What's wrong?"

"...No, it's nothing, you go to the bathroom first."

Although Mingyin was a little concerned about his distraction, Odasaku was always thinking about things in a daze, so he took off his shoes and went upstairs without thinking too much.

The boss took away the tableware and washed it in front of the sink.

Odasaku was the only person sitting in the small restaurant.

His blue eyes seemed to be thinking of nothing as before, but he was indeed thinking all the time.

There was a flash of inspiration suddenly.

He firmly grasped this flashing clue, and then immediately dug out all the blank memories of his youth and restored them to their original appearance.

But his face was still the same as usual, he took out his wallet, put the meal money for two people aside, and then took out the photo that was put back in the wallet before.

Now, there are two people in the photo.

A young man who had exactly the same appearance as May [-]th Mingyin forcibly pulled his wrist when he was a boy, and made a V-shaped hand.

It is a commemorative photo of a trip to an amusement park, and the landmark Ferris wheel in the background can just be seen.

Moreover, this person is also called "Mingyin".

Writing "Bright Voice", a name he thought was cool the first time he heard it.

While thinking, suddenly, the slightly hoarse voice unique to young people rang beside his ears.

He was so surprised that he touched the gun reflexively and pointed at the other party.

"It's the same person."

The blue-eyed boy in a full set of sportswear was sitting on the chair next to him, looking sideways at him, resting his elbows on the table, resting his chin, his ice blue eyes were careless.

Odasaku hadn't noticed that there was anyone else in the store besides him.

But he put the gun back because he could see the unchanging face of the other party.

"Well, let's treat it as our secret. Don't tell him."

Yato poured the unmelted ice cubes in Mingyin's glass into his mouth, and crunched them all into pieces.
