Red Cat
"Meow~Meow~"
In the gloomy dense forest, a red cat pierced through the scattered tree shadows like an arrow, and its vigorous red body jumped around, making it stand out in the green and secluded forest.
Under the staggered sunlight, the darkness between the shades of the trees suddenly surged like mist, and a little girl of five or six years old slowly walked out of it.
She wore a scarlet dress, as if it had been stained with blood, the skirt was outlined with lace, and a pair of shiny red leather shoes were on her feet.
She glanced around, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and opened her arms to the red cat with a smile:
"Doll, this way!"
The red cat looked at it, ran obediently, threw herself into her arms, and began to meow, as if to explain everything he had discovered.
"Huh? Nakamichiko is right...... It's a great place to kill! ”
The little girl looked down and listened to the red cat bark for a while, slightly smoothed the cat's cat, and smiled so much that she couldn't see her eyes.
"In that case, then ......"
The little girl licked the corners of her chapped mouth, and the cat in front of her began to ignite, and the fire was as strange as a red ghost.
"Ahh
A scream broke through the silence of the forest, and the little girl's eyes flashed sharply, but she regained a harmless smile and quickly turned away.
On the empty path, there stood a handyman in white clothes, her small cart had overturned due to fright, and the items on the cart fell to the ground and fell to the ground.
The little girl squinted, and the man was looking at the strange red flames of the red cat she was holding in her hand like a monster.
"You...... You...... Who are you......? ”
The man pointed at her with a trembling hand.
The little girl pressed the cat in her hand and took a step forward with a smile.
"You...... Don't ...... Don't come here......"
The man was holding his cart, but his feet were unsteady, and one of his heels was spread on the ground, and the wheels of the cart were pushed by a thrust, and he slid into the woods and got stuck between the two trees.
The little girl was amused, and she slowly crouched down, her golden hair hanging down, and looked at the embarrassed man:
"Big brother, let me ask you a question."
She lowered her eyelids, a fierce flash in her eyes, and then returned to smiling.
"Did anyone say you would die in a fire?"
The man sat on the ground, just looking at her smiling like a flower and trembling at the flame that was close at hand.
The little girl swept it, the smile on her face disappeared, and the cat flame in her hand slowly collapsed, turning into a red cat doll, and a fiery red circle suddenly appeared in the void behind the person's head.
"Really, Ayena is a good boy and never lies."
Ayena tilted her head, said slowly, hugged the red cat doll in her hand, glanced at the circle behind the man's head, hooked the corners of her mouth, hummed a little song, and turned to leave the forest.
The breeze blew, the trail ahead was empty, and the leaves were saladed.
The man held the ground with trembling hands, and a stream of hot tears welled up, and he was about to breathe a sigh of relief and rejoice that he had survived the disaster, but the blood-red circle on the back of his head suddenly glowed with a strong light.
The man's pupils shrank, and with a "poof", a mouthful of blood spat out violently from his mouth.
In the next second, his body suddenly ignited with scarlet flames, and the raging tongue of fire surrounded his whole body in an instant, and he was burned alive to ashes before he even had time to shout.
A gust of wind blew, and the ashes were blown off the path and disappeared into the woods without a trace.
……
"Hey, the female employee in white, our person in charge called you."
Su Que took a new job, and when he was passing by the bathing hall, he was stopped by a staff member standing at the door.
She curiously swept the bathing hall, and saw the dumbfounded figure of the tin man from the side of the door, and immediately understood what it was.
The hall was a little messy, and the bathtub in one room seemed to be overturned, and the big round wooden barrel was rolling on the ground, and the bathing water was sprinkled all over the ground, and there was some shower gel or something slippery.
The elegant woman was waiting with the tin man by the door, her face was very bad, and the beautiful blue skirt on her body was also wet.
Seeing Su Que coming this way, she breathed a sigh of relief, beckoned to Su Que with relief, and dragged her long budding fan away.
Su Que saw that the flowers on the fan were densely blooming into a pink vine, as if an accident had just happened, and it had sold a lot of effort to mediate.
The tin man at the door had obviously been waiting for her for a long time, and he leaned over with his huge body and handed her a leaky paper bag.
"Here, got it."
It said with a wink.
Su Que looked at the paper bag, which was not opened because there were many people in the hall, but with the appearance of groping, she also vaguely knew that this was probably the chalk she wanted.
Su Que glanced at the tin man in surprise, he didn't expect it to really be able to get it, but the rest of his eyes swept into the chaotic bathing hall, and he suddenly understood what simple and crude means it used.
She looked around, put away the paper bag, and said solemnly to the tin man:
"Okay then, I'll help you with that."
After all, she had already helped her get what she wanted, and she was not such a treacherous person, so she really had to help.
"In that case, then I ......"
Su Que pulled the zipper of her white uniform, trying to resist the damp and uncomfortable air of the bathing room, and just as she wanted to ask about the specific situation of the tin man, a sudden change occurred.
"Boom-"
The earth seemed to shake three times, and a choking smell of smoke entered the nasal cavity, and at the same time, the surrounding temperature rose rapidly, burning every pore, and I don't know who shouted, and everyone was in chaos.
"It's on fire - it's on fire - run - run!"
The spacious bathing hall became crowded in an instant, and the crowd crowded Sangsang rushed to the door, and there were constantly various guests rushing out of the door, stepping on the corpses of employees and walking forward, and for a while the hall was full of shouts and cries.
Su Que was squeezed hard by the people behind him, and almost fell, and the iron man in front of him stretched out his iron hand with great vision, supported her steadily, and slowly avoided the crazy crowd with her and evacuated to the door.
Su Que wiped the bleeding wound he had just knocked and looked back at the lamp beam in the hall.
The bright light illuminated a scarlet cat on it, its fur as red as a pool of blood, its head held high, and its two black glass-like eyes were stunned on its head, but it was expressionless.
Su Que gritted his teeth.
Where the red cat is, it is the area where the fire gathers.
- Sure enough, it was Ayena's handiwork.
