"What are your plans next? Where do you want to go? I'll take you there." Just after Luo Shu said this, Shim, who was playing with his phone, suddenly opened a voice message: "Eh? Shu-kun, are you going home for dinner? I see. I'll go prepare it right away." Listening to the familiar voice of Mu Geng, Luo Shu said speechlessly: "Could it be that... you were chatting with Kisara in the back just now?" "Luo Shujun is really smart." Shim smiled and tapped Luo Shu's forehead with his index finger: "So you understand the destination?" "I understand, but you actually want to come to my house for a free meal..." Luo Shu was speechless. Mu Geng actually agreed to this? At this moment, Luo Shu seemed to hear Shim's whisper: "Some things are more interesting when done in person." "Something? Do it in person?"
Luo Shu vaguely thought of some things that were somewhat inappropriate for children, and suddenly felt that this lunch might be in trouble. Don’t mess up, after the ghoul’s last meal is finished, it will be his turn to have his last meal. That would be very bad! Chapter 74 Who is the Devil? Chiyoda-ku, in front of the Metropolitan Police Headquarters 'Sakuradamon'. An old man and a young boy holding crutches were walking along the sidewalk. "How about the new Minister of SDS?" The first one to speak was Nurarihyon. At this time, he was holding a cane and walking slowly like an ordinary old man. However, the overly long back of his head and the magic that was always on to block the view of passers-by showed that this old man was not simple. "If it were you, you should be able to see something wrong, Your Highness." The person being questioned is the girl 'Iwanaga Kotoko' who is regarded as the 'Monster Princess', walks on the borderline between monsters and humans, and provides solutions to difficulties for both sides. However, only the monsters understood that this princess was actually the human body of the 'God of Wisdom', a monster-created god created by the monsters, who was served by the monsters and sacrificed one eye and one leg to wisdom. That's why Nurarihyon asked for his opinion. It's not just because Iwanaga Kotoko once acted as a middleman to ease the conflict between the Nura Group and the Metropolitan Police Department, allowing the Nura Group to avoid being destroyed in the future, but also because Iwanaga Kotoko herself can be said to be a kind of "military advisor" to the monsters. "monster." The monster princess who was questioned said something rude that surprised Nurarihyon. "When I saw Luo Shu-san, I realized that man was a 'monster'." "The other party is a monster that is superior to humans and monsters."
"My 'wisdom' keeps reminding me this." "Remind me to stay away from him and away from disaster!" Iwanaga Kotoko covered her fake eye and said solemnly: "Don't try to make him your enemy, Naughty. He is far more terrifying than you and I imagine." Nurarihyon was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Iwanaga Kotoko, who had a good chat with Luo Shu before "Six Hundred and Seven", would give such an answer. While Nurarihyon was stunned, the expression on Iwanaga Kotoko's face suddenly became like a fox: "But apart from the essential problems, Luo Shu-san's appearance is very much in line with my aesthetic standards." "He has black hair and black eyes, clean features, and you can tell from his eyes that he is an 'easy to manage' man. It's just that his clothing taste is not good, but that's probably because he doesn't have a girlfriend." "Ah, Shim and Lux picked up a big leak. What a pity, I can't steal my best friend's boyfriend." "Really? When will they break up? If they can, what are the chances of success if I confess my love to them right after they break up?" "...You changed the subject too quickly." Looking at Iwanaga Kotoko who seemed to be really thinking seriously, Nura's mouth twitched a few times, and then he said speechlessly: "So in your opinion, Princess, the other party is a 'monster' that needs to be avoided?" "No, no, no, that's a personal feeling." Iwanaga Kotoko shook her index finger to express her disapproval. "Just like humans get scared when they see a tsunami or a volcano erupting, my instinct tells me to stay away from the other party because the other party is a tsunami that is about to sweep in and a volcano that is ready to erupt." "But apart from this, from a personality perspective, Luo Shusan is someone who completely agrees with the definition of SDS." "That is what the senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department call a fool who wants world peace and works hard for it." "Well, Luo Shusang is not stupid by nature, but in the eyes of Lux, he is not stupid. "Because human beings will not refuse the yearning for beautiful things." Nurarihyon chuckled and said with some emotion: “But the world is cruel.” "No, no, no, you misunderstood again." Iwanaga Kotoko shook her finger again and rejected the idea: “For those who have both power and ideals, the world is a beautiful place.” Nurarihyon raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, and then said seriously: “Strength will always be insufficient, and ideals will eventually be betrayed.” Iwanaga Kotoko tilted her head: "Are you referring to the Nura Group?"
"Yes, it's the Nura Group." Nurarihyon sighed, shook his head slightly, and said helplessly: "My old friends are all old now. We no longer have the same drive as we did 400 years ago." "Compared to the Nura Group, SDS is still young. They were founded even less than a fraction of the time of the Nura Group, so they can still do what they want." "I don't want the Nura Clan to be swept into the trench by the trend of the times they have set off." Iwanaga Kotoko heard this and looked at Nurarihyon seriously: "Then protect the 'half-demon', old fox." Half demon. The 'species' born from the union of humans and monsters is half human and half monster, and is therefore rejected by both sides. Although the parents love each other, the child cannot have a happy existence after birth. Kotoko Iwanaga realized early on that in the modern mysterious society, it is an inevitable trend for the monster group to gradually retreat into half-monsters and then integrate into humans. But it is a fact now that half-demons are not welcomed by both sides. That's why she suggested to Nura Karakiri that the Nura clan should protect the half-demons and keep pace with the trend of the times. "It just so happens that the third generation of the Nura group, Rikuo, is also a half-demon. For this reason, the Nura group has a suitable excuse to shelter the half-demon." Hearing Iwanaga Kotoko's suggestion, Nurarihyon couldn't help but complain: "...You really know how to give monsters problems." The leader of the Nura Group, a monster force occupying Tokyo, is a half-demon, but this is different from the Nura Group's clear-cut protection of half-demons. Once this action is taken, the monsters who adhere to old-fashioned ideas will regard the Nura Group as heretics, and the human leaders who are wary of monsters will also find the Nura Group's behavior suspicious. This is a completely unpleasant approach for both parties. But Nurarihyon is well aware that this may be in line with SDS's style. After all, he also knew the style of the Supreme Speaker of SDS. For that person, protecting half-demons who were discriminated against due to the general environment was a no-brainer. If the Nura clan protects the half-demon, they will be on the same front as the SDS, and in the eyes of Iwanaga Kotoko, they will also be on the same front as Luo Shu. "So, this is your answer for me, Princess?" The first thing Nurarihyon asked was "How is the new director Luo Shu?" His implicit concern was "How should the Nurarihyon group get along with the SDS?" and how to avoid conflicts between the old faction of the Nurarihyon group and the SDS. The response given by Iwanaga Kotoko was to use the identity of the young master Nura Rikuo to protect the half-demon. In a sense, this is using SDS's "political correctness of not discriminating against half-demons" to bring both sides together on the same side. It can also be said that if you can't beat them, just join them.
"What a ridiculous answer." Nura: "Answer or no answer, does it matter?" Iwanaga Kotoko lowered her beret and said with a half-smile, "At least compared to ghouls, there are still options for monsters, right?" Nurarihyon was silent for a moment, then laughed: "That's true. At least we still have a choice." After laughing, Nurarihyon said in good spirits: "Well, farewell, Princess, thank you for your answer this time." As soon as he finished speaking, Nurarihyon's figure suddenly became as black as ink and was blown away in the air by the wind. Iwanaga Kotoko watched this scene quietly, and continued to walk forward with her cane. "Well, the next step is to contact the little monsters in the Line group and ask them to join in the fight against the ghouls." "Well, I hope those little guys will look at their phones today~" - Luo Shu's house in Nerima District, near Ikebukuro. "Wow, this lion's head is delicious!" Shim, dressed in a green-collared uniform, tasted the delicacies on the table excitedly. She held a piece of the lion's head, and suddenly her eyes turned. She held the lion's head in her hand and put it in front of Luo Shu: "Come on, Luo Shujun, ah~~" Mu Geng, who was already very annoyed by Shim's coming, accidentally broke his chopsticks when he saw this scene. Luo Shu, who was standing by, saw this and his eyelids twitched. He couldn't help but said, "Shim, no need. I can eat by myself." "Come on~ah~~" Shim seemed not to hear and handed the food directly to Luo Shu's lips. Luo Shu had no choice but to eat the lion's head and ate his meal in silence. "It tastes great, right? This is a loving lunch made by Mu Geng himself~" Hearing Shim's words, Mu Geng's mouth twitched suddenly. You also know that this is the loving lunch I made for you! "Shimsang." Mu Geng's voice was rusty and slightly hoarse. Shim beside him tilted his head, and then asked in surprise: "Kuga, why is your voice a little... Did you use your mouth too much?" "No, my voice is just like that. Wait, what did you say overused?" Kisara explained subconsciously, and then realized what Shim meant, and his face instantly turned red: "No, I didn't do that!"
Hearing Kisara's emphasis, Shim was a little surprised: "What? I thought you had done everything after living together~ What a bummer~" Hearing this, Luo Shu and Mu Geng's faces suddenly froze, and they thought to themselves with a fake smile: 'I'm so sorry to spoil your fun. 'X2 After finishing his meal with difficulty, Luo Shu put down his bowl and chopsticks, breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The action against ghouls will probably begin tonight. I'm going to take a nap now to avoid being too tired at night." Luo Shu stood up immediately after he finished speaking, and returned to his room at a very fast pace. It was obvious that he did not intend to continue to face this Shura field where he had to worry from time to time...
