Chapter 180. Cat (recommended ticket plus change)
Hawaii at night is calm.
No one could tell that just a few dozen minutes ago, the place was still covered in clouds, and it was once in the apocalypse.
Communication was restored twenty minutes earlier, and the network was five minutes earlier.
Qiao Qiao's phone popped up several news, all about storms in the Pacific Ocean that suddenly appeared and disappeared.
The aftermath is ongoing.
Let's not talk about people like Boss Cheng, who suffered a car accident in the storm.
There are also many citizens who have encountered accidents due to power outages, network outages, high winds, etc.
After rescuing the hostages in the villa, Qiao Qiao contacted He Maoming and the local church, and when everything was taken care of and he returned to the hotel, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening.
“...... Looks like I won't be able to sleep well tonight. ”
Ariko Asano looked at the half-destroyed hotel and didn't know what expression to use to face.
"The typhoon is really powerful."
Boss Cheng looked at his house with a little bitterness.
No, it's not a typhoon.
Ariko Asano explained inwardly.
It is estimated that at least one-third of the damage to this hotel is due to the teacher's traps, no, probably two-thirds of the damage.
It's better not to tell Boss Cheng.
"Fortunately, I have always bought insurance, but after such a toss, it is estimated that I will have heavy bleeding in the future."
Boss Cheng sighed.
"Mr. Joe, Miss Asano, your room has been destroyed, and only the room that is under renovation is left on my side, so you see if you should move there, well, although the beach is gone, at least the house can still be inhabited."
He asked again.
"Okay, okay."
Asako Asano agreed.
It took them a while to move the rest of their luggage to the next room.
The layout here is almost exactly the same as the original room, but because Boss Cheng doesn't have extra temporary beds, there is only one bed in the room.
A bed!
Asano Riko suddenly blushed a little.
"It's okay, I can sleep on the couch."
Qiao Qiao put down his luggage.
"To be honest, I was ready to lay out tonight, and it was a surprise to have a room."
He turned on the computer in the room and seemed to be searching for something.
"Then, I'll go take a shower first."
Asako Asano didn't bother Qiao Qiao and went into the bathroom instead.
Soaking her body in hot water and relieving her fatigue, Riko Asano floated on the surface with only one head, closing her eyes and trying to relax her mind.
What happened today is really bizarre.
Sudden storms, monsters crawling out of the sea, and......
Riko Asano felt a little dizzy.
Maybe it's been too long.
She changed into a yukata and walked out of the bathroom, where she saw Qiao Qiao typing on the keyboard seriously, as if he was writing a report.
The teacher is really hard.
Ariko Asano didn't bother Qiao Qiao, but lay down on the bed and played with her phone.
Twitter was full of news from Hawaii, with research institutes saying it was a rare tropical storm or perhaps some special meteorological phenomenon.
There are also people who claim to have seen a huge monster in the stormy clouds at that time, of course, because the Internet and communications in Hawaii were cut off at that time, there is no real-time evidence, and judging from the videos uploaded by the video website, there is no problem at all.
As for the soul slayer, the information is obviously more accurate.
According to the information obtained by Ariko Asano, what appeared today was a strange that was not registered in the records of the Soul Exterminator Association, and was classified according to its influence and the level of spiritual power detected at the time, and was classified into the ranks of youkai.
According to the discussion of the Yin Yang Liao and several major shrines, it is believed that this incident was caused by a certain youkai that had been sealed by the same kind in the past trying to break free.
And the light that Asano Riko didn't get to witness from the sky came from Ise Jingu.
The priest of Ise Jingu, the shrine maiden of the mirror world, is called the person who favors the gods in the circle of the Japanese country soul destroyer.
She's just one arrow.
Spanned a distance of more than six thousand kilometers.
Kill the big monster who has broken half of the seal.
By the way, the entire Hawaiian Islands were purified.
Asako Asano hadn't seen each other, but in her imagination, it should be an awe-inspiring and majestic shrine maiden-sama.
Playing with her phone, Ariko Asano soon fell asleep to the sound of Qiaoqiao's keyboard tapping that gradually became lighter.
Two o'clock in the evening.
Qiao Qiao stopped what he was doing, got up and glanced at Ariko Asano.
This kid sleeps worse than Suzuka.
Qiao Qiao helped Asako Asano cover the quilt.
Feeling something, he turned his head to look at the floor-to-ceiling window with the curtains closed.
When I opened the curtains, I could see a three-flowered cat, squatting outside the door.
Starlight shone on its pupils, glowing green.
Qiao Qiao opened the floor-to-ceiling window and came outside.
“...... You're not an ordinary cat, right? ”
Qiao Qiao looked at the Milky Way in the sky and said to the cats beside him.
"It depends on how you define ordinary."
The cat was motionless, but from its mouth, a voice came.
The voice could not distinguish between men, women, and children, and the language used was not even any of Qiao Qiao's understanding.
But the meaning can be clearly conveyed.
"I'm surprised that you neither forgot about it under my influence nor reported my existence to your people."
The cat said again.
"Based on what I saw at the time, I think it was reasonable not to report."
Qiao Qiao replied.
"You made the right judgment and at least saved your life, and as for the little girl, I don't like her."
The cat licked its paws, and no emotion could be heard in the words.
"So, you're somehow, um, in our words, weird?"
"You name it that."
The cat sat down.
"In the days before mankind existed, we were the masters of the sky, the earth and the sea."
"Among us, there are more beings who have transcended the shackles and seen things that have never been discovered before, of course, the subsequent wars destroyed everything, some guys were completely killed, some guys were completely sealed, and some, like me, we transformed our existence and continued to live in this world."
"You mean, turn into a cat?"
Qiao Qiao looked at the slightly obese cat.
"I thought you understood."
The cat yawned.
"Just a joke, please don't mind."
Qiao Qiao smiled.
"So a year ago, it was you?"
He remembered what He had said about the sightings of giant creatures in Hawaii a year earlier, and since then, there have been fewer strange incidents around Hawaii.
"It's a war, and all you can see is the shallow part."
"So you lost?"
"No, I won."
The cat's tail wagged and wagged.
"I won, but I'm also too fragile and on the verge of death."
It narrowed its eyes slightly.
"At that time, Sakura picked me up."
"Maybe it was just a discarded kitten, but she did take me home, took care of me, and saw me as part of a family that was a good person, and I could say that even after witnessing the rise and fall of countless civilizations."
"Heh, you know, it's a little ridiculous for an existence like us, the concept of family."
"But I like it, it's very warm."
Hearing the cat's words, Qiao Qiao was silent for a moment.
"So you killed all the believers in that villa to protect Sakura? Have you done something similar before? ”
"I've been around for far more than you can know about history, and she, with only a few decades to live, is just a trivial moment in my long life."
The cat looked at Milky Way and said.
"So I'm willing to stay by her side and protect her for the rest of my life, it's as simple as that."
