I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Arima Norimune hesitated. He knew the family situation of Higashino Yu. He basically started from scratch. He just earned some money from working part-time in the past two months. That little money may seem a lot, but if he lives frugally in Tokyo, he can only live for less than half a year.

He didn't have much money to begin with. Now it's cut in half. Will he starve to death?

"But——"

"Don't worry. I still have 350,000 yen. The house I live in now is lent to me for free. I just pay for water and electricity. The cost of living is very low."

Higashino Yu smiled easily, but his heart was bleeding. This is 350,000 yen. Although he learned a lot, it was a complete profit.

But spending so much money at once, he suddenly felt a little uneasy about the future. For example, what if he can't get any orders for exorcism?

The money he earned from tutoring Miko is not enough.

"But then again, if you insist on giving it to me"

"Higashino, I believe in your ability." Arima Norimune said seriously. He can still take out 35 yuan, but you should sell me for 350,000.

You? Dongye Yu pulled the corner of his mouth, it seems that you are just being polite to me, right?

The two chatted and went downstairs. The smell of fried food came from the kitchen. Mrs. Arima seemed to be cooking.

"How about eating at my house?" Arima Norimune stretched his neck and looked, "It seems that there are croquettes at home tonight."

"Forget it, I have to go to the restaurant later to handle some matters related to my resignation."

Dongye Yu said goodbye and left the Arima family. At this time, night had fallen, and the night wind was cool and pleasant. The lights in the city in the distance were just coming on, and the residential areas were brightly lit and fragrant. Even some families who had eaten earlier had already started to go out and prepare to go shopping. Just standing on the road, you can feel this leisurely and peaceful atmosphere.

Take a deep breath and walk towards the subway station.

Dongye Yu is going to take the subway to Minami Senju, go to the Duke of Kobayashi's residence to announce his resignation, and collect this week's salary to make up for it.

The lights in the entrance of Duke Kobayashi's residence were as bright and brilliant as ever, but in the restaurant, they were slightly dimmed to create an atmosphere. The interweaving of light and shadow cut the space, creating a sense of design.

"Hitsuno-kun? Are you going to start working part-time?"

When the regular customers saw Hitsuno Yu passing by in school uniform, their eyes lit up and they greeted him. Hitsuno Yu smiled at them.

"Good evening, Ms. Tagawa, Ms. Ito, you all misunderstood. I'm actually here to resign. I'm grateful for your care all along."

He bowed to the regular customers, then walked steadily and quickly to the staff area without getting a single leaf on him, leaving the long-awaited guests staring at his back in a daze.

Dong Dong Dong.

Hitsuno Yu came to the manager's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Hitsuno Yu had called in advance, so Kasahara Masato didn't leave work early. Instead, he sat behind his desk in a sophisticated brown-gray suit as usual. He had been waiting here for a long time.

The two smiled at each other and closed the door. Some guests were surprised outside. The sound of the melodious E major third unaccompanied violin suite suddenly became a little muffled, as if it was played underwater.

"So, has Higashino-kun made up his mind?"

Masato Kasahara looked at the young man sitting opposite him and sighed in his heart. Has this day finally come?

Although he knew that Higashino Yu was not an ordinary person, he was just staying here for the time being and would leave the Duke Kobayashi's residence sooner or later, but he didn't expect that this day would come so soon. It's only been two months, and he's already leaving?

For the performance of the Duke Kobayashi's residence and his own bonus, he was ready to make the last effort and persuade him seriously.

"It's not easy to live in Tokyo. Higashino-kun's family situation is not that good. In addition to studying, he also needs a stable and high-income job, right? Why did you think of quitting suddenly? Are you dissatisfied with the salary or for other reasons?"

"Thanks to you, the salary is very generous, not because of money or anything else." Higashino Yu explained with a smile.

"It's just because I want to focus on my studies. My dream is to cross Akamon. After a school test some time ago, I found that I am still a little far from this dream. I am anxious, so I am ready to calm down and study."

Higashino Yu said the prepared speech.

This reason is impeccable. After all, the purpose of working part-time is to have the capital to study in Tokyo, and for most students, the dream of getting into the University of Tokyo may not be realized even if they try their best.

Masato Kasahara nodded slightly: "Then how do you solve the source of living funds?"

"I have saved a lot of money from working part-time in the past two months. If I save a little, I can use it for a year or two."

The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds. Masato Kasahara sighed and leaned over to take out an envelope from the drawer under him. It looked quite thick. If it was all Fukuzawa Yukichi, it would be estimated to be about 100,000 yen.

"This is my personal thank you to Higashino-kun. It's not much, but it's my sincere token of appreciation."

"Thanks to your help, the number of guests at Duke Kobayashi's Residence has increased over the past few days, and it has finally become famous. A few days ago, a food critic came to dine in disguise. I read the food review column today, and the female critic praised our restaurant's dishes and dining environment, especially Higashino-kun's competence as a waiter."

He stood up, put the envelope on the table, pushed towards Higashino Yu with both hands, and bowed with a smile: "I wish you good luck in martial arts in the future. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can call me. I am here in Tokyo." I also have some connections in Nian, which may be able to help. If you have financial difficulties, you can come back at any time. Higashino-kun is always welcome at the Duke Xiaolin’s residence.”

"I will, thank you for taking care of me during this time." Dong Yeyu took the envelope and bowed in return.

"If you encounter something strange, you can call me. I take my leave, Mr. Kasahara."

Strange thing?

Kasahara Masato looked at Higashino Yu who was leaving with some confusion, feeling puzzled in his heart. What could be stranger than a high school student from a poor family suddenly resigning?

It was only around eight o'clock in the evening when Higashi Yeyu came out of the subway station. The subway station is only two streets away from the residential area where he lives. Compared to the usual nine or ten o'clock when he returns home, it is relatively early.

I felt happy when I resigned, but when I stepped out of the subway, the cool breeze blew, and I walked alone on the street, I felt a little uneasy.

Counting the 100,000 yen donated by Mr. Kasahara, I still have 450,000 yen plus some change.

Fruits and vegetables are very expensive here in the island country. If you want to eat something purely natural, you have to buy it carefully. For me who has no stable financial source for the time being, I might have to go back to the days of grabbing discounted lunch boxes every day. .

Fortunately, the Jinguji family lent me a house to live in, so I was able to save a large portion of my consumption and be able to survive for a while longer.

Yuan Jun didn't know whether he fell asleep again or something. Last time he said he wanted to visit Tokyo, but he paid the deposit and nothing has happened yet.

If you don't receive any orders for demon removal in the future, write a letter and ask what's going on.

If you have extra time in the evening, you might be able to browse more information shared by other exorcists on the Internet.

Although most governments in the world prohibit the spread of supernatural news through the Internet, the demon slayers also have a semi-official special network server, which is somewhat similar to the dark web.

You can log in by entering a specific domain name. It is no different from a forum. It is used to share information with exorcists. Sometimes some exorcists will also post transaction information on it in exchange for the items they need.

You can also go out for a walk and look for evil spirits.

But do you want to bring Miss Moon Witch with you?

She is not considered a mortal now. The process of refining Qi is quite fast. She can only be said to be worthy of being a human being. It will take her several years to build the foundation, but Miss Moon Witch only needs about a hundred days.

Dong Yeyu thought for a moment and shook his head. Her cultivation was insufficient and her skills were unfamiliar. It would be easy to get into trouble if she was taken with her.

Later, when he is sure that he encounters a very weak monster, he might be able to take her with him.

While thinking about the future, Dong Yeyu quickly arrived at the door of his courtyard.

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, he looked at the building where he now lived. Higashino's surname was plastered on the gate, and he patted his face. Didn't he also come over to the small house where he lived in about ten square meters when he first came to Tokyo?

The situation now is much better than before.

Dong Yeyu opened the courtyard door and walked in. Xiuji seemed to have heard the movement and squatted at the entrance to greet him early.

"My lord has worked hard, and I wish I could take my place in my place."

"Is everything okay at home today?" Dong Yeyu asked as he finished changing his shoes and walked to the kitchen.

Xiuji quickly and steadily followed him on two bird legs and said at the same time.

"Reporting to my lord, things are calm in Dongye Castle today. However, when the ministers were basking in the sun on the roof, they discovered that many strange monsters appeared around Dongye Castle."

"They broke in?"

"It seems like I'm just passing by, but also like I'm spying on Higashino City."

When I practice, I will gather the wisdom of heaven and earth within a wide range. Maybe these monsters are attracted here because of this?

Dong Yeyu thought for two seconds and waved to Xiuji: "You go back to your room to practice. I will visit Jinguji's house on the weekend and borrow some materials to set up formations at home to drive away those inexplicable little monsters."

Hearing this, Xiuji lowered his head in shame: "Xiuji is incompetent and causes the lord to lose face. This is the crime of a minister."

"If you know your sin, practice hard. Only when you become stronger can you help me." Dong Yeyu gave a simple lesson.

"What the Lord said is absolutely true"

Xiuji squatted on the spot and said nothing, neither moving nor moving.

Dong Yeyu was surprised: "Is something wrong?"

"A bird that has not done enough has no face to make any demands. But today is the last episode of the TV show "The Legend of Gong Ming Tai Ge".

Xiuji said a little coyly, raised his bird's head, his eyes, as small and round as obsidian, were filled with tears: "My lord, can you lend me your cell phone to my ministers?"

"Can't you watch TV?"

Higashino Yu nodded at the big TV in the living room. The Jinguji family paid the monthly NHK fee and could watch TV for free. Xiuji couldn't practice during the day. If he wasn't out patrolling, he would basically stay at home and watch TV.

Suiyoshi's wings trembled, and he was a little embarrassed: "Reporting to my lord, the TV program will not be broadcast until late at night, but you can watch it on your mobile phone in advance. My lord doesn't know, the Adachi family is quite hateful, arrogant and cunning, and the ministers can't wait to see Kikuchiyo Kill the Adachi family and become Guanbai."

Guan Bai originally means "statement, reporting", which comes from the "Book of Han: The Biography of Huo Guang, Jin Rixi", "Everything must be Guan Baiguang first, and then reported to the emperor." That is to say, any major event must be stated or reported to Huo Guang first. Then it was reported to the emperor.

The word was introduced to Japan by envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty, and gradually became an important position for the Japanese emperor to assist Prime Minister Wanji after he came of age.

However, he was very powerful and could even oust the Japanese emperor, which was somewhat similar to the prime ministers in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

Dong Yeyu pondered for two seconds. Xiuji has been practicing hard every night for a while recently. Sometimes he has to fly thousands of miles to check on some benefactors whose addresses can be determined. It is indeed hard work.

Thinking of this, she handed him the fruit mobile phone given by Miss Moon Witch with great care.

"Take care of it, if I find any scratches—"

"Please rest assured, my lord, if you injure your cell phone, I will die to apologize!" Xiuji thanked her loudly.

"That's not necessary, just be careful." Dong Yeyu waved his hand.

Xiuji bowed again and jumped upstairs happily holding her cell phone.

Dong Yeyu took out the discounted bento stored in the refrigerator, heated it in the microwave, and carried it back to the room on the second floor.

The place where I live now is not the master bedroom, but the second bedroom, mainly because the lighting in the master bedroom is not very good.

And now this room faces the sun. Not only can you see the rising sun every morning from the window, but there is also a large balcony after opening the floor-to-ceiling windows, which is convenient for you to collect purple energy.

Sit down at the desk and turn on the desk lamp. Under the bright and warm yellow light, the teriyaki chicken cutlet bento filled with the aroma of meat is steaming hot.

Higashino Yu took a big mouthful of rice with a spoon, and at the same time took out the exercise book, notebook, and pen and paper from his schoolbag, preparing to study for a while. After Xiuji finished reading the Legend of Famous Taige, he would stop surfing the Demon Master Forum.

Just then,

Boom!

Something seemed to hit the glass window.

Wow!

Dong Yeyu put down the spoon, opened the curtains and took a look. It turned out that a suction cup arrow was inserted into the floor-to-ceiling window glass of his house, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling.

Whose naughty kid is playing a prank?

Dong Yeyu frowned, opened the floor-to-ceiling window and came to the balcony.

call out!

Another arrow came straight in front of him. Dong Yeyu quickly snatched the arrow with his eyes and slit his hands, and glared in the direction of the arrow. After seeing the person clearly, he was shocked to find Miss Moon Witch standing with a toy bow in her hand. Looking down at myself from the balcony on the second floor of the mansion opposite.

She was wearing a red dress, and her straight legs were wrapped in pure cotton white pantyhose, which outlined the graceful curves of a girl.

The moonlight draped over her body like a silver veil, with her eyebrows lowered and her expression holy and solemn.

"Your Excellency Knight, do you know the sin you have committed?"

Dong Yeyu was stunned: "What's wrong with me?"

"From five o'clock to seven o'clock in the evening in the Kingdom of Night, I called you several times on the Mirror Moon, but I didn't get even a single reply. I couldn't help but think of the time you took it upon yourself to get rid of Mie Guhuo Bird and this period of time No matter how casually you follow me in my investigation, your heart seems to be moving away from the Mirror Moon."

Tomorrow See Sanae said this with a serious look on her face, and her ice-blue eyes were frighteningly bright under the moonlight.

"I will not allow something like this to bring shame to the witch."
