Tokyo: My Hundred Ghosts Scroll

Chapter 24 The Iijima Family Are Folk Experts
"Master."

Back at Iijima's old house, the maids greeted him and Hayasaka Nao: "Dinner is ready."

"Has mother not come back yet?"

"Madam has something to do in the company and will come back later," Nao Hayasaka said, "She asked us to eat first."

Gu Yun nodded, and took Hayasaka Nao to the living room.

"Let's eat together, Miss Nao."

It is obvious that Nao Saka is the etiquette instructor of the Iijima family, but whenever Iijima is not around, she will be extra indulgent to Gu Yun.

The one who seemed to be treated harshly was actually the mother.

Iijima: The world where only I get hurt?

"Ah."

Hayasaka Nao sat aside and whispered softly: "I'm starting."

After the meal, Gu Yun called out the three-tailed fox. She had the idea of ​​becoming a maid of the Iijima family. Now that Nao Hayasaka knows the existence of the demon, there is no need to hide it from her.

"Let me introduce Miss Nao."

Gu Yun: "This is a three-tailed fox."

"It's the first time we meet, I'm a three-tailed fox, please give me some advice from Ms. Hayasaka."

"Hello."

Hayasaka Nao was a little nervous.

Even if she knew that the other party would not hurt her, but when she thought that the three-tailed fox was a monster, it was really difficult for the girl to deal with it with a normal heart.

"Sister Nao, don't be so scared."

After Gu Yun's introduction, Nao Hayasaka had a preliminary understanding of the three-tailed fox.

Three-tailed fox has a gentle personality, and her big sister is full of fan, and she has a lot of experience in taking care of people.

Hayasaka Nao's work pressure is extremely high. Not only does she have to take care of Gu Yun's life, but she also needs to take care of the Iijima mansion.

In terms of the company, the girl is her mother's confidant and think tank, and she often helps her solve problems.

It is true that Hayasaka Nao has outstanding abilities, but with so much work, even an iron man will be exhausted.

"In the future, let Sister Fox do the job of taking me to school."

"If you pick up..."

Nao Hayasaka asked, "Can Miss Sanweihu drive?"

"That," said Three-Tailed Fox, "I think it's quite simple."

The three-tailed fox has a strong learning ability, and driving itself is not difficult. The only troublesome thing is the driver's license.

"The matter of the driver's license is not a big problem. I will solve it."

"It's really incredible."

After finishing speaking, Hayasaka Nao was deeply moved: "Working with monsters is like dreaming."

"However, why did you become an onmyoji, young master?"

Hayasaka Nao realized that she was a little reckless, and quickly said: "Ah, if it's a secret, you don't need to tell me it's fine."

Seeing the young girl's disdainful appearance, Gu Yun scratched his head helplessly: "Sister Naiyang, you don't have to be so polite with me, even if I know spells or something, you are still my sister."

"And there's nothing that can't be said," Gu Yun said, "Actually, our Iijima family has the ability to see monsters since my grandfather's generation."

"My ability is stronger, so I can contract monsters."

"Then, madam also..."

"Mother can see, but she can't spell."

Gu Yun explained: "So sister Naiyang, mother didn't hide it on purpose."

Next, Gu Yun told Nao Hayasaka what happened to her mother when she was young, and let her know that not everyone likes to have the ability to see hell.

I can see it, but I can't change anything. I can only be frightened by monsters, and then become a freak in the eyes of my peers.

Such a life and childhood, I feel pitiful when I think about it.

"Such a thing happened."

Nao Hayasaka did not expect that Tamaki Iijima would have such an experience, and she admired her wife's strength even more in her heart.

"It's not that bad."

Gu Yun said: "Actually, my mother's younger brother, my little uncle, also has mana, as well as my grandfather."

"The purpose of our trip to the countryside this time is to let the old man teach me various spells."

Through Gu Yun, Hayasaka Nao learned some secrets of the Iijima family.

This is a family with spiritual power stored in their blood.

Born with spiritual awareness, he can see ghosts and see ghosts and ghosts. Some members even have the ability to learn spells and use shikigami.

This is the first time for Hayasaka Nao to know about the supernatural circle, and she feels very novel.

"It's probably like this."

Gu Yun stretched his waist, he was going to do his homework.

The homework for elementary school students is not too difficult, but it is a bit time-consuming.

"Then, master, are you going to fight those things in a place that my wife and I don't know?"

"No no."

Gu Yun knew that Hayasaka Nao regarded him as an existence like Masked Superman and Ultraman, but she misunderstood: "Our Iijima family is not a serious spiritual master, nor does it make a living."

Huan Iijima is so rich, Gu Yun doesn't need to rely on exorcism to make ends meet.

"And I don't know people in a few circles now."

Gu Yun didn't have any contacts, but his grandfather did. The old man had told him before that he would take him to meet a colleague who was related to the Iijima family in the near future, so he could extend this love to Gu Yun.

"At least for now, I really don't know a few people."

Apart from his grandfather, Gu Yun's only understanding of the spiritual circle is through Abe Xiangming, a rebel.

"In short, our Iijima family neither needs to protect the world, nor has the responsibility to uphold justice."

"For me, magic is just a hobby like kendo and judo that I learn on a daily basis."

If you don't rely on magic to make a living, it's naturally a hobby.

"I see."

Hayasaka Nao almost knew Gu Yun and the situation of Iijima's family.

Although they have abilities, they are not orthodox spiritual masters, but more like folk masters hidden among ordinary people.

If they can only meet, they will help and do what they can.

I haven't encountered it, and I won't go all over the world to subdue demons and eliminate demons. That's not the job of the Iijima family at all.

There are real spiritual masters and exorcists in this world, some of them hide among the people, and some of them also work for the government.

In contrast, the Iijima family didn't have so many things to do.

The old man is a writer of horror novels, and Gu Yun is the young master of the Iijima Group. They all have their own lives and are not bound by the world of demons.

And this is what grandpa said 'don't get too close to that world'.

Soon after, the mother returned from the company.

After hearing that Nao Hayasaka knew the secret of the Iijima family, the mother was a little surprised: "If Nao is afraid..."

Because of his supernatural physique since childhood, Tsuru Iijima, who was alone, was reluctant to tell the secret to Hayasaka Nao because he was worried that the child would be afraid of them.

"Madam, please don't say that."

Hayasaka Nao was rescued by her mother, received her great favor, and vowed to dedicate her life to mother and son.

The girl has suffered too much pain, which leads her to feel indifferent. Only by facing Iijima Ring and Gu Yun can she experience the warmth in the world.

So don't say it's just a threat from demons.

Nao Hayasaka is willing to go to hell for them.

"Ma'am~~"

"Nao-chan~~"

Iijima was almost moved by the girl's heartfelt words to the point of crying.

As for Gu Yun, he was a little speechless watching this orangey scene.

"I've said it long ago, my lord."

Gu Yun shrugged, ready to get up and leave: "I don't have anything to do here, I'm going to rest."

"Ah, wait."

Mother stopped Gu Yun and said, "That guy called today and asked you to go out with him during the weekend."

That rascal?
Besides grandpa, can there be another person who can be called by mother like this?
"I was planning to go with you."

Mother was also in a dilemma at first, because she was working in the company, and at the same time, she was worried about Grandpa, fearing that he would bring Gu Yun to bad.

"Now that Nao knows, let her accompany you there."

As she said that, the mother pressed her hands on the girl's shoulders, and said solemnly: "Nayang, you have to remember, keep an eye on that old guy for me, absolutely, definitely don't let him lead Xiao Guyun to harm!"

"..."

Nao Hayasaka was a little dazed, and Gu Yun couldn't laugh or cry.

Feelings, you haven't turned this matter over yet.
