Chapter Forty-Seven: The Calm Before the Storm
Chapter Forty-Seven: The Calm Before the Storm
After Kaye and the others returned to the human world, everyone's lives were back on track. In order to reward the trio for their achievements, Captain Julia granted them a day off, and the hunting of Digimon was given to Nami Mizuki and Aki Mato, who were in charge of logistics.
The week-long trip is finally over, not to mention a rare vacation. It's also a good feeling to leave your troubles behind and occasionally rely on **.
At this time, Kaye lay on the ** and continued to sleep soundly.
But
With a 'huh-', the curtain was suddenly opened.
"Kaye, it's already morning, hurry up!"
The sun shining on the face... and the voice of Yabei... The voice of Yabei? This situation has never been before, and Kaye was so frightened that he jumped up from the ** all of a sudden.
"Wow, ah, ah, !!"
"Wow!!"
Yabei on the side was also taken aback by Kaye's exaggerated reaction.
"Yabei, why are you in my room?!"
The drowsiness had long since been swept away, and Kaye stood up a little frightened and asked the girl.
"Actually, my aunt asked me to call you up for breakfast."
Yabei replied.
"Mom told you to call me a**?"
Kaye was a little confused, and didn't understand why Yabei appeared in her house, and her mother specially asked Yabei to wake him up.
"Actually, I'm in financial trouble"
Yabei's originally white face instantly turned red this time, and she lowered her head and said.
"Since I lived in an apartment alone, my father was very angry when he found out because he spent money too uncontrollably, and after a quarrel with him, my father actually cut off my financial resources"
"There is still half a month before the subsidy for DHT is distributed, because there is no money, I and the little monster beast are also facing the fate of starvation."
Speaking of the back, Yabei's tone was even more full of resentment.
"That Yabei, in fact, as long as you sincerely apologize to your father and promise not to spend money indiscriminately, you will definitely be forgiven."
Kaye said with a shy face.
"It's hard to change as long as Dad decides something.,What's more, I buy limited-edition figures and peripherals every month.、So I spent nearly 100,000 yen unknowingly.,The little monster eats a lot."
"It's all because you buy figurines indiscriminately that the economy is tight, isn't the little monster beast often hungry?"
Kaye couldn't help but complain loudly, spending money indiscriminately to buy figures and peripherals is the reason for not having money, and the latter words are completely excuses. When he was in the Digital World, Yabei himself admitted that the little monster beast was always starving.
It is not for nothing that Yabei's father is angry with his daughter for spending money indiscriminately and cutting off his financial resources. Because she's really unrestrained
Kaye didn't sympathize with Yabei's situation at all, and in a way, she was self-inflicted.
"After returning to the human world, I also have a good reflection, and I actually plan to buy a lot of snacks for my partner. It didn't work out at all."
Yabei had a shocked expression and said in pieces.
"Actually, I also plan to borrow money from everyone, but my relationship with Nami and Yaan is also very ordinary, so I guess it's unlikely. As for Ryder, I don't want to turn to him."
"Anyway, after the ideological struggle, I can only turn to my aunt for help, don't worry, I will also help my aunt with housework in exchange"
"Then let's leave the room first, we can't make Mom wait too long"
It was unbearable to continue to let Yabei chatter, and Kaye quickly interrupted her.
"yes, then I'll leave first."
As Yabei left his room, Kaye sighed deeply.
"I really hope my mother doesn't cause any misunderstanding"
—1—
At the kitchen table, Sakura, the multi-way beast, and the little monster were already seated, and Jane was in the kitchen preparing her own breakfast for everyone. There is a characteristic breakfast smell in the kitchen, and the mere smell of this smell makes you feel hungry.
"Auntie, I've woken Kaye up."
Yabei smiled when he returned to the dining table, looking at the delicious breakfast on the table, Yabei couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
On the table, in front of each seat, rice, natto, fried salmon, fried eggs, and miso soup are placed in front of the ordinary Japanese breakfast, which is a luxury for Yabei, who nibbles on bread every day to fill his stomach.
"Hey, when can I have breakfast?"
The little demon beast asked Yabei with a little resentment, obviously breakfast was placed in front of his eyes but he couldn't eat it, which was a torment for the little demon beast.
"Of course I'm waiting for Kaye to come over, little monster, at least know basic politeness in someone else's house."
Yabei glared at the little demon beast.
"Cut"
The little demon beast is dissatisfied, don't overdo it, it feels really bad to send people under the fence.
"Good morning~! Mom, Sakura, and Dorwaymon. ”
Dressed in casual clothes, Kaye walked to the table and sat down on a chair to say good morning to his family and partner.
"Hehe, good morning."
Jane sat down happily and looked at her children with a smile.
"Kaye, good morning, let's have breakfast together!"
As he spoke, the multi-road beast's paws grabbed its chopsticks and began to eat breakfast.
"Cut, Uncle Ben is dying of hunger."
Seeing that the multi-way beast started to eat first, the little demon beast couldn't hold it back, and solved the breakfast with a violent momentum.
"Auntie, your cooking is delicious."
Yabei, who was eating breakfast, said with a touched face.
"It's been a long time since I've had a formal breakfast"
"As long as you like it."
Jane smiled.
"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"
Looking at Yabei, who was moved by just eating an ordinary breakfast, Kaye complained shamefully.
"Hey, brother, what are your plans for today?"
Sakura, who had been eating breakfast, suddenly asked.
"I don't know."
Kaye thought about it, since joining DHT, in addition to going to school, the rest of the time has been patrolling or defeating the Digimon that strayed into the human world and teleporting the Digimon back to the digital world. Basically, the time spent with my family has also become shorter
"Sakura, if I can, I'll play with you all day!"
In the rare vacation, it is also a good choice to spend a meaningful day with your sister as an older brother.
"I don't want it!"
Sakura decisively refused.
"It's not fun to play with my brother at all, so I might as well let Ryder accompany me for a day!"
"Whew"
Kaye was devastated.
"Poof"
Seeing Kaye's devastated expression, Yabei held back his smile.
"Sakura, you can't do this, you'll make my brother sad."
Jane taught her daughter in a slightly serious tone.
"But my brother is not as gentlemanly as Ryder, and he will make girls happy."
Sakura also showed an aggrieved expression.
"What's more, my brother and I don't have any common language, my brother has no love experience, and he doesn't understand the mood of girls at all."
"Today's elementary school students are so precocious."
Even Yabei couldn't help but complain.
"It doesn't matter, no matter who you are, you've ever been in love. Your brother will definitely get a chance to fall in love~~"
Jane looked at Kaye and Yabei with a smile, and the two of them were embarrassed.
"Mom, you seem to have misunderstood again"
Kaye said helplessly.
After breakfast, Yabei and Jane packed up the dishes together. The little monster lies on the couch and naps, while Sakura and the multi-way beast play a game.
"I'm out of the house~!"
After changing her shoes before the entrance, Kaye said goodbye.
"Kaye, where are you going?"
Seeing that Kaye was about to go out, the multi-road beast ran over and asked.
"Just wanted to go for a walk"
"Walking?"
The multi-way beast tilted its head in confusion.
"Yabei, you should accompany Kaye too."
"Huh!?"
Kaye and Yabei's eyes widened at the same time.
"Auntie is not necessary, right?"
"Because Kaye still needs to get along with girls more, doesn't Yabei also need friends?"
The gentle smile on Jane's face remained the same.
"So, you need to change each other."
"Mom, I think you've been really weird for the past two days."
Kaye had no idea why her mother wanted her to be with Yabei.
"Of course, I hope Kaye can understand the girl's feelings, so that Jane won't hate her brother."
Jane's smile was full of conspiracy.
"Okay"
Kaye was defeated by Jane, and Yabei had no choice but to compromise.
"Kaye, I only have the commander in my heart, and it's absolutely impossible to fall in love."
Yabei, who listened to Jane's words and went out with Kaye, warned with resentment.
"I don't want to at all."
Kaye said with a grimace.
"Little monster, you can also take a walk with me."
Yabei invites his partner.
"Uncle Ben doesn't want it! Go for a walk on your own! ”
The little demon beast turned sideways and said angrily, not wanting to pay attention to the idiot partner at all.
"This guy"
clenched his fists unhappily, Yabei couldn't help himself from having a seizure, after all, it's not good to lose his temper in someone else's house.
(I'll be sure to clean up after I get home)
"Multi-way beast, let's continue playing the rich game."
Knowing her mother's good intentions, Jane pulls the Dormon away when Kaye tries to take it and continues to play the game.
Although Sakura is only an eleven-year-old elementary school student, she has seen many beautiful love stories, and she also hopes that her stupid brother will not be so dull.
"What the hell is going on today?"
Kaye and Yabei continued to humiliate.

"It's boring."
In the operation room of the DHT team base, because the time is too leisurely, Nami and Ya'an, who are in charge of auxiliary work, chatted in order to pass the time.
"yes, I wish we could take a day off too"
Ya'an leaned back in his chair and lazily looked at the screen in front of the terminal computer.
"Speaking of which, it seems like Christmas next month, and Ryder is leaving Japan and returning to Germany."
Remembering that next month is Christmas, Nami sighed, originally wanting to give Ryder a gift on Christmas Day.
After all, for Europeans and Americans, Christmas is a holiday that should be with family. However, in a month's time, he will still be back in Japan."
Yaan comforted his colleague.
"Nami, I've brought you the snacks and tea you wanted."
At this time, the little bear beast entered the operation room with snacks and tea.
"Thank you~~ Bear Beast."
After receiving the snacks and tea, Nami smiled, and by the way, she also shared the snacks with Ya'an.
"Ya'an, you can eat too."
"Haha, thank you~~ I happen to be hungry too."
Ya'an took the snack and tasted it.
"I really envy you, you have a great partner. It's a pity that the kendo beast has always talked very little, and its personality is also very boring."
Ya'an said enviously. Hearing his partner say this about himself, the kendo beast sitting in front of the terminal glanced at Ya'an, and then continued his work.
"Kendo Beast is just introverted and not good at expressing itself, but it's also a good partner."
Nami chuckled.
"I just wish it could talk to me more."
Ya'an smiled helplessly.
At this moment, the alarm suddenly went off, and red lights flashed throughout the studio.
"Yaan, there are a lot of Digimon in the city!"
The first to notice the abnormality was the kendo beast, which hurriedly reminded its partner loudly.
"What is this!?"
Aware of the urgency of the situation, Ya'an looked surprised when he looked at the large number of red dots on the map displayed on the screen.
"Too many"
Nami also hurriedly operated the terminal and began to lock onto the Digimon.
The door to the operation room suddenly opened, and Captain Julia and the wizard beast who had rushed to hear the news quickly walked to the command platform in the operation room.
"Ahh The number is still growing."
Seeing that the red dots on the screen continued to increase, Ya'an's tone was a little more anxious.
"Contact Ryder, Kaye, and Yabei now! Get ready for battle! ”
Julia gave the order.
"Julia, I have a bad premonition, let me play this time."
As if thinking of something, the wizard beast took the initiative to speak.
"I see, wizard beast, you have to be careful. If you have any questions, please contact me! ”
Julia allows her partner to prepare for the battle.
"I'm fine."
As he spoke, the figure of the wizard beast disappeared into the command room.
"Digimon Reaction Increases 100160210320"
Watching the reactions that appeared on the screen continue to increase, Nami nervously wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
"There are more and more things to do, and I can't count them at all!"
"Declare a Level 1 anomaly! Notify all parties to enter the state of alert! ”
Even if it was an emergency, Captain Julia calmly gave the right order.
"Priority is given to ensuring evacuation of residents!"
—3—
In the sky above the city, ripples appeared, and the ripples swayed in circles, one by one, a demonic night demon beast with a blood-red body holding a three-pronged staff, an evil dragon beast with dark arms and legs growing abnormally, and a demon dragon with broken wings on its back.
And on the land, there are also dark drakemons that are all black, three-headed drakemons with blue bodies and metal and dry bones on each of their hands, and spidermons that are huge and hideous.
Everything was like a nightmare, just a few hours ago, the city was peaceful and peaceful, but as the sky rippled, countless monstrous monsters suddenly appeared, appeared, attacked the city, and exploded.
In the cement dust raised from the ground after the explosion. The aftermath of the attack also affected the surrounding power lines, poles and buildings, turning them into a battlefield-like situation.
Panic in the face of a series of unimaginable explosions and strange events in daily life paralyzed the entire street.
The streets were filled with a commotion like a honeycomb, and screams and panic swept over the city. Numerous warning lights have added tension to the city, and the police have worked hard to maintain order and direct panicked citizens to shelters.
"Mom! Cherry! ”
Receiving the urgent information, Kaye ran back to his home in a panic, and it was reassuring to know that the Digimon's attack area had not yet reached residential areas.
Jane and Sakura weren't at home, and it seemed that they had been arranged to a shelter in advance, leaving only the multi-way beast and the little demon beast at home.
"Kaye, Jane, and Sakura have been taken to the shelter."
The words of the multi-way beast also confirmed Kaye.
"Great"
Kaye let out a deep sigh, he was dying of fear.
"Really, it's too fast."
Yabei, who had rushed back with Kaye, bent over and rubbed his sore calves, the incident was too sudden.
"It's you who are so useless!"
Yabei's tired appearance was complained about by the little demon beast.
"What a mouthful!"
She glared at her partner.
Ryder's voice came from the communicator in his ear.
The voice of the demon beast's dissatisfaction also came.
"I know, I'll do it now!"
Kaye replied.
"Multi-way beast, let's hurry up and meet everyone!"
"Kaye, leave it to me!"
"Little demon beast, let's hurry up too!"
Infected by the tense atmosphere, Yabei also reminded his partner.
"It's really verbose, of course Uncle Ben knows, it's all a bunch of miscellaneous fish anyway!"
The little demon beast had a disdainful expression on his face.
