In the office, listening to the report on the other end of the communication device, Otonashi Chexue could not help but frown a little, and then responded calmly.
"Yes, I understand."
"I will ask Sakura to retrieve the data in the database for comparison. I will reply to you as soon as I have the results."
"Anyway, I'll leave it to you to take care of things over there. Please pay attention to safety in everything."
After Kosagawa Maho cut off the communication, she took off the standard earphones from her ears, placed them on the table and stared quietly.
Is it the golden demon general who brings trouble to everyone in Jin...?
This time, Yagami and the others really encountered an opponent that should not be underestimated.
Although she has not had the experience of fighting against a demon general in person, she was also there when she fought the water demon general in Okinawa last time, and she knew how powerful it was.
Except for himself, the other captains of the Thirteen Night Fu Team would probably not be its opponents if they met it one-on-one.
When he thought that there were four more demon generals like this, even Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but have a hint of caution in his eyes.
Fortunately, judging from the current situation, these demon generals do not seem to be accustomed to fighting in groups, but instead work independently.
In other words, they won't fight in groups.
In this regard, the Yefu Thirteen Team is exactly the opposite. Team fighting is their best tactic.
Even if you are not an opponent one on one, if you fight one more person for justice, you may not be incapable of fighting.
And more importantly, every demon general is the pillar of the Fujin people. If such top combat power is lost, even the leader of the Fujin people, the mysterious monster named Fujin, cannot turn a blind eye.
So...
If the Gold Demon General can be killed this time, then it may not be far from Fujin's appearance in person.
Thinking of this, Otonashi Chexue's eyes couldn't help but become extremely cold, as if covered with a thin layer of frost.
In the next moment, the sworn sword appeared in her hand. The dark blade seemed to be flowing with blood, and the blade gradually turned a strange crimson color.
A terrifying coercion swept through the room, and even the documents on the desktop were trembling and falling to the ground.
And with the appearance of Die and Die, Otonashi Cheyuki's originally clear eyes were also covered with a thick layer of gloom, and even the palm of his hand holding the hilt of Die and Die was trembling, as if he was about to cut it out at any time.
That relentless blow.
This situation lasted for several seconds.
After a few seconds, Otonashi Cheyuki, who could no longer maintain this state, let out a breath of turbid air, lowered his arms, and his eyes became clear again.
Looking at the stalemate in her hands, she couldn't help but shook her head.
Sure enough, I am still completely unable to master such a move, and I can't even get started.
But now, there is not much time left for myself.
At least before facing off against that Fujin, he must master the key points of this move.
In the next moment, the irreconcilable world disappeared in her hands. Otonashi Cheyuki opened the drawer on the right side and took out a piece of milk candy that Kosagawa Maho had won back from the shopping street.
I plan to replenish sugar to my brain and then continue with the next work.
Bah.
The moment the candy wrapper was torn open, a slight sound was made.
The next moment, a mini figure appeared at the table as if teleporting,
She was wearing light blue pajamas and holding an extra-large salted fish pillow in her arms. At this moment, she was staring at the candy in Otonashi Chexue's hand with her big dead fish eyes.
That's right, it's number eight.
Seeing No. 8 suddenly appearing next to her, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but feel a little surprised and said in surprise.
"Aren't you... already asleep?"
"Do you think I will be fooled by you?"
At this moment, No. 8's little face had an expression of "I caught you" and he hugged the pillow in his hands tightly.
"No. 7 told me before that when adults push children to sleep, there are bad things to do."
She looked at the candy in Otonashi Cheyuki's hand, looking full of anger, and loudly accused her.
"Sure enough, you, the busker, want to sneak some delicious food while I'm asleep, right?"
Hearing this, the expression on Otonashi Chexue's face suddenly became startled.
She looked at the milk candy in her hand, and then at the angry No. 8 in front of her, and spoke feebly in defense.
"No, I didn't think so..."
No. 8 didn't believe this explanation at all, and just stared at Otonashi Chexue with his dead fish eyes.
"You lied. Number Five has always done this."
Realizing that she was completely unable to communicate with him, in desperation, Otonashi Chexue had to sigh softly, and then handed the candy in her hand to the other person.
"So, do you want to eat?"
"want!"
Looking at the milk candy in the opponent's hand, the anger in No. 8's eyes immediately dissipated, and he nodded eagerly.
"Well, it's yours now," Otonashi said snowily.
But before No. 8 could feel happy, she immediately spoke again.
"There's just one more thing, that is, you have brushed your teeth now. If you want to eat sweets, you have to brush them again."
Hearing this, No. 8's pair of dead fish eyes suddenly shrank, and he even retracted his hand that reached out to the candy, and said full of sorrow.
"Don't brush your teeth...I don't like it."
"There's nothing you can do if you don't like it. This is the price of eating candy." Otonashi Chexue said seriously.
She paused slightly, looked at the troubled No. 8 in front of her, and spoke again.
"If you really don't want to brush your teeth, then let me keep the candy for you. You can go to bed now. When you wake up, I will give you the candy. How about that?"
The look in No. 8's eyes wavered for a moment, but then became firm again.
"I won't be fooled. You must be trying to get rid of me and eat it secretly."
"I already said I won't." Otonashi Chexue patiently communicated with the other party, "Well, what do you say before you are willing to believe me?"
"Well..."
Hearing this, No. 8 couldn't help but frown, pretending to be thinking seriously.
Suddenly, she thought of something, her dead fish eyes suddenly lit up, and then she pointed at Otonashi Chexue and said loudly.
"I thought about it, I want to sleep with you!"
"In this case, you can't eat it secretly!"
Hearing this, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help being slightly startled.
"However, I still have work to complete, and I can't rest now."
"So, as long as you finish your work, you can sleep?" No. 8 looked at the other party suspiciously.
"Yeah." Otonashi Chexue responded.
"Then, I'll wait for you."
"And, here's this for you."
While speaking, No. 8 handed the extra-large salted fish pillow to Otonashi Chexue.
Looking at those salty fish eyes that were similar to those of No. 8, Otonashi Chexue was a little puzzled.
"Why are you giving me this?"
No. 8 replied with a serious face.
"Because you have to fish when you work. Only by fishing can you be happy, so I will lend you the fish."
This shouldn’t be the meaning of fishing here, right?
After hearing this and looking at the salted fish pillow in his hand, Otonashi Chexue looked at the other person and couldn't help but feel speechless.
Looking at the serious No. 8 in front of her, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but cover her forehead.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of education this child has been receiving.
It seems that an ideological education is imminent.
While she was thinking, No. 8 had climbed onto the sofa, squatting there holding her short legs, urging Otonashi Chexue with wide eyes.
"Then, I'll be waiting for you here. Start working quickly."
...
Fifteen minutes later.
Otonashi Cheyuki placed the last document in the upper left corner, glanced back at No. 8 on the sofa, whose eyelids had begun to twitch back and forth, and warned.
"If you feel sleepy, go back to sleep first."
Hearing her voice, No. 8, who was originally drowsy, immediately opened his eyes, quickly shook his head, and said vaguely.
"I...I'm not sleepy..."
She glanced at the empty tabletop in front of Otonashi Chexue, suddenly became energetic, jumped down from the sofa excitedly, and asked.
"Does it mean that the work is over?"
"Well, it's coming soon, just a little while."
As he spoke, Otonashi Cheyuki bent down, picked up another pile of documents from under his feet that was almost taller than No. 8, and placed it on the table with a rumble.
No. 8, who didn't notice that his face suddenly turned pale, took a few steps back and collapsed on the sofa, continued to focus on his work.
...
An hour later.
No. 8, who was already sleepy and delirious, rubbed his eyes, then walked off the sofa in a daze, opened the door unsteadily, and walked out.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Otonashi Cheyuki's work paused slightly, and a faint smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of his mouth.
After all, you are still a child, and you will want to give up if you can't hold on.
However, adequate rest is a bounden duty for them, and staying up late here with them would be a waste of life.
Then, you have to focus more on your work.
...
Three hours later.
Placing the last pile of documents on the corner of the table, Otonashi Chexue put down the pen, glanced at the clock on the wall, and rubbed his brows tiredly.
Phew, it's finally over.
It was already so late, and it was almost time for me to go back and rest.
I hope to receive good news from Hokkaido tomorrow.
but......
Since Yagami Sora is here, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?
Otonashi Cheyuki knew that Nasuno's cursed seal was now in Yagami Sora's hand.
With such a powerful curse seal, even the demon general who brought trouble to everyone was no match for him.
What's more, the real power of Ye Shen Kong cannot be summarized by just a curse seal.
Maybe, even Fujin would have to suffer a little when he faced him.
Thinking like this, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but feel relieved, then stood up and left the office.
He closed the door to the room and was about to return to his lounge.
Suddenly, my steps couldn't help but pause.
Looking at No. 8 sleeping soundly against the door frame in the corridor, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
This child hasn't given up yet, but is waiting for me here?
As if feeling Otonashi Cheyuki's gaze, No. 8's toes twitched a few times, and he let out inarticulate sleep babbles.
"Work...work...hurry...end..."
Seeing this scene, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but sigh softly, then squatted down, picked up No. 8, and walked to the lounge.
Creatures like children can be really scary sometimes.
Looking at the young face in her arms that slept like a dead pig, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
However, amidst this horror, there is something...
