With Shuten-doji's "mad run", the three little ones' speed of moving forward in the ventilation duct was obviously much faster.

of course.

What appeared along with it was naturally a certain amount of noise.

If you listen carefully, you can probably hear something moving quickly in the ventilation duct.

But I don’t know whether to say it is lucky or unfortunate.

As we climbed up, the ventilation ducts that were originally lit were now almost completely dark.

But if you think about it carefully, it’s not that strange...

after all--

It was indeed late at night.

Finally, after climbing for a long time, Shuten-doji finally "calmed down".

"Finally you stopped crawling."

The voice of Jack the Ripper came from behind Shuten-doji.

The Ghost King of Oeyama turned around. Although he couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, he could feel the other person's gaze.

"This one……"

"We just..."

"No need to explain."

Jack the Ripper's tone was very calm.

"You must have heard something you shouldn't have heard."

"The 'moms,' sometimes won't let me listen to things either."

"Who are the 'moms'?"

Shuten-doji felt as if he had heard some new words.

"Oh--"

"You don't know yet." Jack the Ripper's tone became much gentler, and it sounded like he was recalling something extremely beautiful.

"That's Mother Medusa, Mother Stheno, and Mother Euryale."

"no!"

Shuten-doji turned around.

"Why are they your mothers again?"

"My 'mother' already has a lot."

Jack the Ripper didn't hide it at all, and the tone was just like Ian saying, "I have a lot of girlfriends."

"But let's not talk about this for now."

"There's a bright spot ahead, let's go take a look."

"..."

Although he really wanted to complain about why Jack the Ripper's mother had so many complaints, Shuten-doji held back.

After all, the other party didn't mind that I was leading the way in the wrong direction.

only--

When she finally climbed to the place where the light was and found that she could see into the room from here, she was stunned.

"What's wrong, Shuten?"

Izuku's voice came from behind.

"No, it's nothing..."

Shuten-doji's expression became a little distressed.

In her eyes, Ian was lying on a pile of notes, holding something in his hand, completely unaware that he had fallen asleep.

"only……"

"I just saw the old man falling asleep on the table."

998. Shuten-doji's Aegyo Moment/Ian's Live Date Plan (4k)

"..."

Just as Shuten-doji said.

At this moment, Ian was lying quietly on the table alone.

Even though he didn't know the room number and didn't understand where he was, Shuten-douji, who was at the front of the team, could probably guess where he was.

That's right.

This is the true meaning of the "Director's Office".

And the great Onmyoji whom he admired was now lying there sleeping.

Needless to say, he must have fallen asleep because he was too tired from work.

"..."

"Uncle..."

Shuten-doji's tone was filled with heartache.

The experience in Heian-kyō changed her understanding of Ian a lot.

Carry everything and endure everything.

Finally, I fell into a long sleep quietly like this one night.

This... is him.

Shuten-doji was still feeling sorry for Ian, but Jack the Ripper behind him showed a different reaction from before.

She was seen standing behind Shuten-doji, pulling the clothes of the Demon King of Oeyama in front of her.

"Can I come over and take a look?"

"Eh?"

Shuten-doji thought about it and felt that this was indeed a reasonable request, so he did not refuse.

"Okay, okay."

however--

However, she somewhat underestimated how much Jack the Ripper cared about his "father" Ian.

The moment Shuten-douji answered her, Jack the Ripper began to push forward.

It was as if he was afraid that he would not be able to see his "father" Ian.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

"Let's give up our seat to you!"

"no!"

Jack the Ripper showed an extremely terrifying stubbornness, which was completely different from his previous easy-going appearance.

"I can not wait."

Ever since——

In the not-so-big ventilation duct, Shuten-douji and Jack the Ripper were squeezed together. The noises made by the two became louder and louder until the entire ventilation duct was filled with the echoes of their voices.

"..."

Ibaraki Douji muttered softly.

"You are going to fall..."

As soon as the words fell——

"Hey!"

As Shuten-douji's surprised voice came, she fell down directly with Jack the Ripper.

Boom!

The director's office, which had been extremely quiet, suddenly made a loud noise.

"It hurts..."

Shuten-doji covered the place where he fell, rubbed it, and raised his head.

However, when her sight was looking down at a 45-degree angle, she felt that her heart - if there was such a thing, was beating at a speed beyond imagination.

That's right.

Ian woke up.

Or rather, it would be impossible not to wake up with such a loud commotion.

"You...why are you here?"

The man said so.

A few minutes later.

As Ian carried Ibaraki Douji out of the ventilation duct, the man was able to "count" the number of the three people in the ventilation duct.

"Three, right? Are there any others?"

"No, no more!"

Shuten-doji quickly waved his hands and then lowered his head, looking like a child who had done something wrong.

"There are only three of us."

"..."

"Really?" Ian's tone didn't contain any accusation. "You guys are the only ones who have the energy to do this kind of thing. The others are either resting or watching something else."

It wasn’t said directly, but the meaning was actually very obvious - what time is it?

Shuten-doji felt even more embarrassed now.

She chose the pipeline operation proposed by Jack the Ripper because she was worried that Ian would dislike her.

Now, let alone completing the operation, the worst outcome has been achieved.

how so……

Shuten-doji was still worried, but Jack the Ripper next to him gave the Oeyama Demon King a "performance".

She walked towards Ian and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Daddy, I want a hug."

"..."

Ian hesitated for a moment, then looked at the silent Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji who seemed to be thinking about something but didn't say a word.

Finally, he bent down, picked up Jack the Ripper, and kissed her on the forehead.

"it is good."

"Daddy will hug you, but - you have to tell Daddy why you do this in the middle of the night?"

"..."

Shuten-doji's heart was in his throat.

She knew that if Jack the Ripper had directly said that he wanted to understand what Ian's invitation meant.

Then one's own "glorious image" (if it exists) will collapse in an instant.

That's not a good thing!
