Chapter Seventy-Four: The Rainbow Sea

Lake's pace stopped, and even without looking back, he could feel that Kotaro hadn't followed in his footsteps.

"What's the matter, don't you want to go back!" said this, Lake didn't look back, and his tone was very cold. It gives the feeling of being suppressed on the verge of an outburst.

"Yes!" But even so, Kotaro replied resolutely.

"I've already figured out, even if I can't become a pirate, I'm going to the Rainbow Sea!" Kotaro's tone trembled a little, with a hint of fear. But Lake heard the conviction in Kotaro's words.

"Rainbow Sea?" Ryker, who was facing away from Kotaro, smiled, then turned back and said to Kotaro who was looking at him, "Then you can come on!"

As soon as the words fell, Lake walked to Kotaro's side under Kotaro's incredible gaze, and a hand knife slashed straight at the back of Kotaro's neck.

In an instant, Kotaro's body fell forward unsteadily, but was caught by Lake in time.

"Lake, you're just dealing with a little ghost, are you going to do this?" said Kirby as he landed on Lake's shoulder and complained to Lake.

"This is the most effective way," Lake smiled, and then carried Kotaro behind him from the coma, "After we bring him home, whatever happens will have nothing to do with us." ”

Because of Lake's movements, Kirby had to fly again, and at the same time agreed with Lake's words, and if he was unconscious like this, Kotaro wouldn't be able to figure out anything.

"I suddenly feel like I'm kind of liking this kid. As he walked towards Kotaro's house, Lake suddenly remembered the scene where Kotaro rebelled against him, and couldn't help but laugh, "If he was a little older, maybe I would have agreed to let him on the boat." ”

"Really, huh?" Listening to Lake's words, Kirby suddenly exclaimed. It didn't expect Lake to say something like that.

It's just that Lake no longer has the idea of continuing to discuss this topic with Kirby, and instantly said angrily to Kirby: "How far is it to get there!"

Listening to Lake's words, Kirby immediately flew into the air, and in the dimly lit town, combined with the location to find the light that belonged to Kotaro's house: "It's coming, it's going to be ...... soon"

As Kirby said, after crossing two streets, outside a small two-story building with lights on, Kotaro's mother, Tsukishiro Shimako, was standing outside the door with an anxious face and looking around.

As the figures of Reker and Kirby, who were carrying Kotaro on their backs, appeared in the light, Tsukishiro Shimako suddenly greeted him eagerly.

"Mr. Lake, what's wrong with Kotaro?" Seeing Kotaro lying on Ryke's back and not moving, Tsukishiro Shimako looked a little flustered.

"It's okay, he's just asleep. Lake explained, waving his hand.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. Hearing Lake say this, Tsukijo Shimako breathed a sigh of relief. After calming down, Tsukishiro Shimako then said to Lake, "Please come in and sit down." ”

"No, where is his room? I'll just help you get him in. For Tsukishiro Island's invitation, Lake turned down her kindness.

At this time, Tsukishiro Shimako reacted, and Kotaro was still on Lake's back: "It's rude, please come with me." ”

With that, Tsukishiro Shimako walked ahead and led the way for Raike......

In the room on the second floor, after Tsukijo Shimako skillfully took out the futon from the closet and laid it out for Kotaro, then let Lake put Kotaro on it and cover him with the quilt.

"Thank you so much for today, Mr. Lake. Tsukijo Shimako thanked Lake before he could walk out of the room door, and stood up at the same time, "If you can, let's drink a glass of water before leaving." ”

For Tsukijo Shimako's enthusiasm, Lake couldn't push it back in the end, so he could only respond to the "disturb" and follow Tsukijo Shimako's footsteps downstairs to the living room......

As Tsukijo Shimako brought the tea and snacks to Ryker, Reker thought for a moment and then asked Tsukijo Shimako, who was sitting opposite him, "Miss Shimako, do you know the Rainbow Sea?"

"Rainbow Sea? Tsukishiro Shimako was stunned for a moment, and only after seeing Lake nodding his head did he explain to Lake, "Actually, that's where my husband, Kotaro's father, made it up." ”

"Made up?" Lake's brow furrowed, looking a little puzzled.

"Yes, my husband, Tsukijo Haizhe, is a geologist, and he is very busy with work, so he often can't stay at home. Tsukishiro Shimako's pupils looked a little pale, as if she was sinking into her own memories, "Even on Kotaro's birthday, there was no way to rush back due to work, and in order to appease the distressed Kotaro, he told Kotaro on the phone that he was looking for a place where the legendary gold flows in the river, gems are everywhere, and the sky is covered with huge rainbows, and any wish can be granted, the Rainbow Sea." As long as you find the Rainbow Sea, you can help Kotaro fulfill all his wishes. ”

"Kotaro was only nine years old at the time, so it was easy to take Hai Zhe's word for it," Tsukishiro Shimako paused for a moment as he said this, "but only the next day, the police department came to inform us that the expedition team that had gone to Tatara Island was missing. ”

"Could it be difficult?" said Reck, who thought for a moment and imagined the aftermath of the story.

"Yes, Haizhe participated in that geological expedition to Tatara Island," Tsukijo Island's mood was very low, looking at the night sky through the floor-to-ceiling window, and the day he set off was Kotaro's birthday. ”

Although Guys later intervened in the investigation, nothing was found. The entire scientific expedition team seemed to have evaporated from the world. Tsukishiro Shimako turned her head and glanced at Kotaro's room above the ceiling, then said to Lake, "I wanted to keep this news under wraps, but Kotaro found out. After that, Kotaro pinned his hopes on the lie of the Rainbow Sea, hoping that by finding the Rainbow Sea, he could realize his wish to bring his father back......"

"I see. Lake nodded, then picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip of the tea in the cup, then stood up and said to Tsukijo Island, "Then I'll take my leave first." Kotaro will definitely run out without giving up, so you have to pay attention to yourself. ”

After reminding Tsukijo Island, Lake grabbed Kirby, who was still pecking at a small snack, and walked in the direction of the gate......
