I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

This sword should be a famous sword. You can tell just by looking at the scabbard. The workmanship is extremely fine. It should be made by a master. There are cracks on the scabbard and it has the aura of spiritual accumulation. As for the family crest.

Jinguji Hiiragi took a closer look at the gold-painted rice pattern on the scabbard, thoughtfully.

This should be the famous sword handed down from a certain Inari priest family. Since it appears in the hands of a young demon slayer, it means that he is regarded by that family as the future head of the family.

Higashino-san was born an orphan, so he probably accepted the inheritance from the priest's family and embarked on the path of spiritual practice.

This is not surprising. Many families sometimes do not have many people who are talented in spiritual practice. The unlucky ones may not even be able to find anyone who can practice in one or two generations.

At this time, it is necessary to look for those talented people, either to adopt them as adopted children or to recruit them.

Once a talent like Higashi Yeyu is discovered, it is normal for him to be recruited into his family.

If he was discovered by the Jinguji family as a child, they would adopt him as their adopted son and teach him how to practice.

They will probably also be assigned to marry a legitimate daughter of the right age in the family, which is a habitual behavior pattern among major families.

But what is a little strange is why he is so valued by a family, but he seems to know nothing about the world of exorcists, not even the Ministry of Religion, Culture, and Science.

After getting Dong Yeyu's fairly reasonable explanation, although she still had many doubts in her heart, she didn't ask anything else.

He just warned seriously: "There are many demons in this nature reserve. Please don't act alone again in the future. It is very dangerous."

She came to Dong Yeyu not to ask him what he had done in detail, but to determine the condition of his injury and then explain it to him to avoid such a situation in the future.

In recent years, there have been many cases where young demon slayers who are not afraid of tigers are eaten by monsters because they underestimate the enemy.

Her behavior is actually a bit too intimate in the eyes of other exorcists.

In fact, this kind of group action among the demon slayers has very little restriction. If some demon slayers want to act alone, there is no need to explain anything to others.

Only friends or relatives will care about it.

Of course, if something goes wrong, you will be responsible for the consequences.

Higashino Yu nodded and answered seriously: "I promise not to run around again in the future, Jinguji-san."

"Um."

Jinguji Hiiragi nodded slightly, and then thought that Higashino Yu seemed to know nothing about the world of demon slayers before, so he added.

"Remember to save the monster's head. After returning to Tokyo, you can report it to the Ministry of Religion, Culture, and Science to see if it is a wanted monster. If so, you can get a hefty reward."

Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Dong Yeyu was stunned for a second, his hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and he screamed like a marmot in his heart.

You sell your corpses so much that you don’t even have any hair left. Where did you get the heads from?

The big monster who bought the head was the one who bought bear paws and bile. That guy took advantage and disappeared on the spot. Now he might have turned into a human and got on the plane to China to make a lot of money.

Thinking that I might lose a lot of money, the delicious breakfast in front of me suddenly became boring.

Gritting his teeth for a while, he asked reluctantly: "Can the demon's weapon be used as proof?"

"No, only the head is acceptable."

How can those 37-degree red lips spit out such words as cold as the cold wind? Even if you give a vague answer, it won't make people so desperate.

How much work do I have to work to make up for the lost money?

Dong Yeyu sat there blankly, as if petrified, his eyes dull, and the warm and bright warm yellow light seemed to turn gray-white on him.

Jinguji Hiiragi noticed Higashino Yu's emotional change, but didn't pay much attention to it, and said softly: "You are injured, just rest in the hotel today. I will tell the uncle, and the reward will not be less."

Now she has discovered it. Even though Dong Yeyu looks more anthropomorphic in appearance, he is so handsome that it is reassuring, and his words and deeds are also mature and steady.

But once you get along with him for a long time, you will find that he is more normal than Sanae.

One escapes and one hits the mark.

"rest?"

Dong Yeyu suddenly woke up. The only way to get out of the scary corridor about money was to repay the favor.

The last time Nekomata was there, Jinguji Hiiragi stopped Nekomata with a paper figurine, and he owed her a favor.

I came here this time thinking that if we could go into the mountains together and meet monsters, we would be able to repay the favor.

Is there any choice between lying in a hotel and fishing for wages, being a wage thief, or repaying a favor?

I want all the salary and rewards!

Higashino Yu immediately put down his chopsticks, unzipped the yukata on his chest under Jinguji Hiiragi's calm gaze, and pulled off the blood scabs from some shallow wounds on his body. He easily tore off the blood scabs, revealing the newly grown white skin underneath. , in sharp contrast to the surrounding skin.

"I'm almost recovered. It won't affect my actions today."

Jinguji Hiiragi was silent for a second and nodded: "Okay, let's eat."

She did not ask why Dong Yeyu recovered from his injuries so quickly. The demon slayers all have their own secrets.

Even most couples are not completely honest with each other, let alone that they are just classmates.

Have a meal?

Yes, you have to eat! Eat big!

I just lost a lot of money, I want to pay it back!

Dong Yeyu took a few more drawers of steamed dumplings and siomai from the dining cart, stuffed them into his mouth fiercely, chewed them as hard as an enemy, and his face was so dark that water dripped from his face.

Jinguji Hiiragi Jing looked at this confusing scene, his long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his black jade eyes.

Take back that sentence, he and Sanae are evenly matched opponents, a pair of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix.

After dinner, Jinguji Hiiragi Jing told Higashino Yu to pay attention to the departure time, and then left.

Not long after seeing off the girl, the waiter came to push the dining cart at Higashino Yu's call, and was stunned when he saw the empty steamer.

The crab roe soup dumplings are not small, there are several in a steamer, and those steamed buns, have you eaten them all?

He was surprised at Higashino Yu's appetite, and cleaned up the tableware quickly. Seeing that Higashino Yu didn't show any expression, he dawdled and wiped the table for a while.

He found that he was still sitting there with his eyes closed and motionless.

"Guest, is there anything else you need help with?" The waiter smiled and bowed and asked.

Dong Yeyu waved his hand: "Thank you, I don't need any help, goodbye."

The waiter who didn't get the tip left with a dark face, complaining in his heart that this guy didn't even get a dime of tip for such an expensive hot spring hotel.

Dong Yeyu knew that he wanted a tip, but the ancestral law cannot be changed.

Others have always tipped the gratitude fox, but no gratitude fox has tipped others.

Looking at the time, there were still more than ten minutes before the departure time. Dong Yeyu tidied up and then called up the gratitude settlement interface, looking forward to what Tao Dong's gratitude reward would be.

[Grade repayment completed. ]

[Grade repayment score this time: C+. ]

[Reward: One tael of Shenzhen Jiuzhuan Iron. ]

One tael?

Dong Yeyu was so angry that he trembled all over. He was sweating all over in the hot weather and his hands and feet were cold. He knew that he didn't check the almanac before going out today, and he was unlucky.

What's the use of one tael? Are you sending away beggars?
