Chapter 236: Soul Incompleteness
Although there were slight differences in appearance, Natsuki still recognized at a glance that the person who was walking home in formal attire with a tired face was Uncle Rock.
Or rather, it's Uncle Rock's body in reality.
Natsuki was very sure that he wouldn't admit his mistake, because the soul fluctuations of the two were exactly the same, and they couldn't be faked.
"It's really funny, even though less than half of the soul is there, can you still make such a complicated move as going to work? Is his soul so special? Natsuki looked at Uncle Rock carefully, and the divine sense in his body scanned Uncle Rock's whole body.
So Natsuki is very sure that the soul in Uncle Rock's body at this time is so incomplete, which is completely in line with the characteristics of most of the soul being left in the game, but he can still maintain his daily work in this way, which is really something that makes Natsuki feel a little puzzled.
So Natsuki didn't come forward to say hello, but prepared to observe.
In this way, Natsuki watched Uncle Rock step on the stairs and return to his apartment, open the door and enter the house, then take out the lunch box he just bought to eat, and then tidy up some work things, and then lie down on the bed and sleep.
Although he didn't say a word in the whole process, and there was no expression on his face, he watched him skillfully do all kinds of housework, skillfully unpack the bento to eat, and then throw the bento into the trash, put the change of clothes into the washing machine, took a shower, and even the most important thing is that he also opened the laptop to deal with a lot of work things, and then lay down to sleep.
Obviously, he stayed up late last night and worked overtime, and then he came back so early today to rest.
A person who has lost most of his soul can still work, work overtime, and handle the work in an orderly manner, this is really an incredible thing, you must know that whether it was Aoki Hanayo or Maeda Mazuo, after most of the soul was trapped, the remaining small half of the soul can barely let himself know that he will not starve to death when he eats and sleeps.
"It's really, really, interesting! But it's not something to dig into now, it's true that he's the one trapped in the game, and that's for sure. Natsuki observed for a moment and nodded, then turned to leave.
Natsuki didn't bother Uncle Rock, who was already asleep, his purpose had been achieved, so there was nothing to say.
With that, Natsuki left the apartment again and walked towards the tram stop.
At the same time, seeing that the time was almost up, Natsuki took out his phone and called Hinata Nanami.
"Is it Natsuki-kun? Why call me at this time? Hinata Nanami's voice came from the phone with some doubts.
"Do you want me to take a leave of absence? No problem, Xia Shujun is going to get busy! It's just, what is it exactly, is it convenient to say? Hinata Nanami asked with some confusion.
Natsuki didn't have anything to hide, so he simply said it.
"Is that so? No wonder they called me! Don't worry, I'll keep this matter a secret from Fenghua for the time being, if she knows, she will definitely run away noisily, and it won't be good if she helps. Hinata Nanami's voice said helplessly on the phone.
"Well, then I'll trouble you." Natsuki nodded in thanks, although Hinata Nanami couldn't see it at all.
Then the two hung up, and Natsuki continued to walk towards the tram stop.
This time is still the rush hour for early morning work, so the tram station is still crowded, and Natsuki, who has just squeezed the tram, still has to continue to squeeze the tram.
So in the crowded tram stop, Natsuki entered the tram car like a swimming fish, and once again found a slightly looser corner, and headed for the next destination.
This time nothing special happened on the train, and Natsuki made it all the way to his destination.
It was a high-rise apartment building with more than ten floors, and it was also where Taro lived.
It's just that compared to Uncle Rock, who lives alone, Taro lives with his family.
However, his relationship with his family does not seem to be very harmonious, which can be seen from what he said before.
However, Natsuki is not interested in his family relationship, he just comes to see if there is really a Taro in reality, and whether he is really the trapped soul of Taro in reality in the game.
In this way, Natsuki came to the top rooftop of the apartment, and his divine sense swept towards the floor of Taro's house, and he easily found a person who had the same soul fluctuations as Taro in the game, and that person's soul was indeed crippled.
Immediately, Natsuki jumped down and came to the floor where Taro's house was located, knocking on the door of Taro's house.
A moment later, a voice said, "Coming, coming." "Come over and open the door.
It was an ordinary-looking Japanese housewife looking at Natsuki with a strange expression.
"Who are you?" The housewife wondered.
Natsuki didn't know what to say to her, so she didn't say anything at all, just smiled, and the housewife was hypnotized.
"Ah, you're Taro's friend? Please come in, please come in, I'll go and call him out, this kid doesn't know what's wrong lately, and he hasn't been able to see anyone. The housewife immediately became enthusiastic, apparently under Natsuki's hypnosis, thinking of him as someone else.
"You're so kind, I just came over to see him." Natsuki smiled and nodded, and entered the room at the invitation of the housewife.
Then he sat down in the living room.
"Come, please sit down, our family is a single parent, I raised him alone, that child usually has no friends, it's great that you can come and see him." You sit down for a moment, and I'll call him. The housewife served Natsuki tea with a happy expression, and then hurriedly knocked on Taro's door.
"Taro, Taro is coming out, your friend has come to see you." The housewife knocked on the door eagerly, and finally let Taro in the door push open the door and walk out, but he had a blank face, which was the typical state after losing most of his soul, and Natsuki was relieved after seeing it.
As for the appearance, although it is a little different from Taro in the game, it can be seen that it is him, and the main thing is that the soul fluctuations are similar, and this Natsuki will not admit it.
"Taro, look, your friend is here, why don't you say hello." The housewife pushed Taro to the table and sat him down.
"Alright, you talk, I'll get some refreshments for you." Immediately, the housewife went to work happily, and sure enough, she felt pity for the parents of the world.
"Who are you?" Taro looked at Natsuki with some doubts and said, although he is now very problematic because he has less than half of his soul, his intelligence is still there, and he doesn't remember that he has such a friend.
"What? Don't remember me? We're friends. Natsuki smiled and said the same.
"Friends?" So Taro was even more puzzled, but because his current intelligence was not good, and it might be a cowardly relationship, he didn't say his doubts again, but just kept silent, as if he didn't want to talk to Natsuki.
At this time, Taro's mother brought refreshments, which consisted of four kinds of refreshments: Daifuku, senbei, matcha cake, and Japanese sweets.
"Come, you eat slowly, talk slowly, I'm going out to buy some food, and I'll be back in a while." Taro's mother, who had put away the refreshments, went out with a happy face.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to say goodbye to Natsuki, and Natsuki naturally wished her a smooth journey.
"Your mother is a very good mother." Watching the housewife disappear, Natsuki said to Taro with some emotion.
"I don't like her." Taro was silent for a moment before holding back such a sentence.
"Why? She obviously loves you very much. Natsuki was puzzled.
"I don't like her." Taro said again.
"Forget it, let's have a snack." Natsuki shook his head, as if he also understood, it was difficult to ask something from the mouth of this Taro, who had a very problematic mind.
He simply pushed the refreshments in front of Taro and said as if coaxing a child.
However, the next moment, Taro surprised Natsuki again.
I saw him push the matcha cake back.
"I can't eat matcha." Taro said.
"Why?" Natsuki was puzzled.
"I'm allergic to matcha, and I'll be hospitalized if I eat it." Taro said.
"Allergies, will you be hospitalized?" Taro's answer really surprised Natsuki.
This is a snack prepared by Taro's mother, so would she not know that her child is allergic to matcha?
It seems that the situation of this family is really complicated.
But after all, this is someone else's private matter, and Natsuki doesn't want to ask too much.
After all, his original purpose was just to check if Taro was really trapped in the game, but now it seems to be true.
"Since it's okay, it's time for me to take my leave." Natsuki stood up and said that he had one last one to go to.
"Is this leaving?" Taro's tone was a little confused.
"yes." Natsuki nodded.
"What the hell are you here for? Who the hell are you? Taro questioned bluntly, and sure enough, now he is completely childlike.
"Who I am, I think you'll find out soon." Natsuki said with a smile.
"Soon to know? What does that mean? Taro continued to ask directly.
"Literally, huh? Well, see you next time. Natsuki wasn't ready to continue answering Taro's words, so he skipped the topic and turned around and walked towards the apartment door.
Taro looked at Natsuki's back and didn't stop him, until Natsuki had already opened the door, turned around and said, "I'm leaving." ”
Taro habitually said, "Be careful on the road." ”
So Natsuki left Taro's house, with some doubts and hesitation about something, but now was not the time to delve deeper, and he was going to continue to the house of Tenno-san.
Tianwang Sang, the name in the game is Tianwang, and the surname in reality is also Tianwang, and his full name is Tianwang Daoren, according to the information given by Tianwang Daoren himself, he is the president of a company and has his own business, no wonder he is so organized.
And because this time has passed the rush hour, the train is finally no longer crowded, so Natsuki finally does not have to compete with the crowded crowd for the right to get on the bus, and he can have the luxury of seeing one or two vacant seats on the tram occasionally.
This is really a terrible thing, Natsuki who sat down on the seat secretly sighed, I didn't expect that I would become a person who would feel satisfied because of a seat.
However, the loose train does have the advantage of being relaxed, such as being able to sit leisurely in the seat, look at the scenery outside the window, or pay attention to how many beautiful women are on the line in the train, which is a very interesting thing.
In this way, the tram came all the way to its next destination, in front of a mansion in the only upscale community.
It is said to be a mansion, but in fact, it is several times larger than the kind of two-story Japanese-style house, with a three-story bungalow, which should also be regarded as a small villa, so it is indeed a mansion.
Xia Shu stood in front of the door of this bungalow with a small courtyard and flowers planted in the yard, first his divine sense popped out of his body, and he felt that in a certain room in the bungalow not far away, there was indeed the soul breath of Tianwang San, and he was sure that Tianwang Sang's body and small half soul were here, so he rang the doorbell.
With a doorbell, the figure of a young woman walked out, and it could be seen that the young woman's graceful and luxurious temperament, coupled with her beautiful face, was really a character who would be noticed wherever she went.
Coupled with the sad expression on the young woman's face at this time, it was even more endearing.
At this time, the young woman looked at Natsuki who was standing outside the gate and was a little puzzled, because she didn't know this person who came to the door resolutely.
"Who are you?" The young woman wondered.
"I'm a friend of Tenwang Inato, and I want to come and see him." Natsuki said using hypnosis again.
"You, are you my husband's friend? Great, he doesn't know what's going on lately, I'm worried about him, since you're here, let's take a look at him. The young woman was successfully hypnotized and said excitedly.
In fact, Natsuki's hypnosis only makes him feel identified with Natsuki's identity, and it has no other effect, but as long as this one role is enough.
"Okay, excuse me." Natsuki nodded, and was let into the bungalow by the young woman.
Then the young woman invited Natsuki to sit down in the spacious living room, and after serving Natsuki black tea and refreshments, she confessed and went to call her husband.
To be honest, with the current state of the incomplete soul of Tianwang Daoren, it actually seems a little stupid and stupid, and it is inconvenient to meet people, if it weren't for the hypnosis just now that Xia Shu made the young woman convinced of Xia Shu's identity and felt that he could be trusted, she wouldn't just call out her stupid husband, you must know that there have been many of her husband's business partners and the like who have come to the door before, but they have all been rejected by her for various reasons.
This can be regarded as one of the reasons why Natsuki chose to use hypnosis from Taro, so that things can be recommended smoothly without being disturbed by details.
