Morning.

When Zao Wou-Ki woke up.

He began to think seriously about a question: Could it be that Lucia has some hidden abilities, such as controlling people's hearts? Otherwise, why would it be like this now?

The sun shone on this bedroom, a petite figure lay across the bed, slick and undressed, the corner of the quilt covering her slender waist, her delicate face seemed to be a sleeping beauty, the corners of her mouth were smiling, but her brows were tightly locked, and then she unfolded again, as if dreaming of something happy and unhappy at the same time.

There was a green stain on the crisp white sheets, and rightfully so, because Lucia's blood was green.

Yesterday I just pillowed on Lucia's lap, but I didn't expect it to end up like this.

The quilt pressed by Zao Wou-ki's palm was quietly pulled, and when he looked up, he saw that Lucia was sitting at the head of the bed with a shy face, covering her body with the quilt.

Zao Wou-Ki was thinking about what to say at this time, but heard Lucia ask suspiciously, "Do you humans like this very much?" ”

Her big eyes were full of confusion, she looked down at her chest, supported it with her hand, and then looked at Zao Wou-Ki in understanding: "I found that you humans like to look here, and you always held on to it last night." ”

Zao Wou-Ki: "......"

This is the cultural difference.

It wasn't the strength that could defeat Zao Wou-ki, but Lucia's innocence.

He sighed and said, "Let Mayumi popularize the knowledge of human physiology to you, I didn't expect you to understand it at all." ”

"Don't I have to be your personal maid?" Lucia's focus is very peculiar.

"No, you've been upgraded to a bed warmer." Zao Wou-Ki said intimately.

Lucia jumped up happily: "Finally, I don't have to follow you all day, I'm going to follow Mayumi as a doctor." ”

The quilt brush fell off, and Zao Wou-Ki looked at this beautiful scenery with some astonishment.

……

Three weeks later, on Thursday.

Night.

Hikono City.

In the urban area, there are few pedestrians on the road, and there are few shops that are open, so it is particularly deserted. You must know that it is only 10 o'clock at night, and a city should never be like this.

On a quiet street, most of the street lights are damaged, and only a small cart selling noodle soup is still in business.

The owner of the stall is a middle-aged bald man, he keeps his head down, busy, and two large bright red lanterns hang from the place where the customers sit in front of the cart.

A gust of wind blew and shook the lanterns, and the leaves on the ground rustled and swirled.

The boss looked at the silence of the city and had a smug smile on his face.

At this moment, a figure suddenly stood in front of the stall.

The boss didn't even notice where the person was coming from.

It was a man, and he lifted the small curtain and sat down naturally.

He discharged nine coins and said, "A can of beer, a plate of fennel beans, a bowl of ramen." ”

The boss finally saw the man's appearance, and his face turned pale.

The bald boss reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "Please wait, guest." ”

The boss first placed beer and fennel beans in front of the man, and then began to skillfully make noodles.

"Boss, do you have a radio, I want to hear about the midnight hotline in this city."

"Yes...... OK. The boss's hand trembled slightly.

Then a nice female voice came out of the radio.

“…… Recently, I have received a lot of letters from viewers related to Obik, a legend that has been circulating in Hikono City for a long time. ”

"Legend has it that in the dark, you will hear someone say to you, 'Come play, come play,' which is a nice boy's voice, and if you accidentally respond to it, you will be captured by Orbik. Recently, many people said that they had met Obik, and the victory team had been alarmed, warning the public not to wander outside at night, and to go home as soon as possible to turn off the lights and rest......"

"Guest, your face is ready."

The bald boss served a bowl of steaming ramen, full of color and flavor.

The guests were unceremonious, snorting and gulping, and finally, they drank all the soup in one gulp.

"Boss, why do you think Orbik is doing this? He took so many people and let them all go. The guest put down his chopsticks and asked the stall owner seriously.

"This ...... How do I know, isn't Obic a folk rumor, maybe what is said in the news is a lie, there is no Obic at all. The bald boss broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"So that's what you think." The guest looked thoughtful.

"That...... Do you want anything more to eat, I want to close the stall. "The boss looked very unnatural.

"Oh, please." The guest hurriedly stood up.

The boss seemed to be a little anxious, like his wife was giving birth in the hospital, he casually packed up the guys, and ran away with the handle of the car.

After the boss ran away, he couldn't help but look back again.

I saw that the guest was still standing in place, looking at his back intently, which made the boss can't help but feel excited. Even from so far away, the man's gaze was like a torch, scorching all the darkness like sunlight through the night.

The boss slipped faster.

Brush, the car has reached the street, brush, the car has completely disappeared.

Shaped like a ghost.

A young man who was on the phone with a good friend complaining that he couldn't go out for recreation recently was looking out through the glass at home, and he happened to see this scene, his eyes rolled and he fainted.

……

Obik, like Sumana and Ida Ryu, is also a ghost story that circulates in Japan.

Once upon a time, Obik was known as Young Master Ayan.

He is a ghost who lives in the dark corners of this area of Hikono, he loves peace and darkness, and when the village is silent at night, immersed in endless darkness, Obik is the happiest.

However, in recent years, human development has shattered this tranquility, and the village can no longer find its former appearance.

……

The outskirts of Hikono City.

A village shrouded in darkness, built on a mountain.

A middle-aged man came to the mountain, he was wearing a white chef's suit, his clothes were stained with soup and oil, and his body was full of the smell of green onions, he ignored the soil under his feet, sat down, his head slowly leaned on a slender sapling, and looked at the familiar village below.

A few meters behind him, a modern billboard was stuck deep in the dirt.

The billboard reads: Hikono Town Health Paradise Development Office.

Farther away, at the foot of the mountain, on the mountainside, a dozen large excavators and rollers are parked. On one side of the mountain, a large area of flat and solid ground has been cleared, and a large number of steel building materials have been piled up.

The middle-aged man knew that if he hadn't intimidated humans and temporarily stopped the progress of the project, the mountain would have changed its appearance long ago, but tomorrow it will still be fully constructed.

The man was holding a pot, he opened the lid, and a black shadow crawled out like a snake.

The man patted the black shadow on the head, not knowing whether he was communicating with the black shadow or talking to himself, he pointed to the quiet village and showed a smile of reminiscence: "A long time ago, in that area of the village, there was an endless lotus root pond, pink lotus green lotus leaves......"

"The children in the village love to jump into the lotus root pond in the summer......"

As he spoke, the man's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his expression became excited, as if he had crossed time and space and seen the village again.

The man stood up, straightened up, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "Shadow, do you remember, the village lookout used to be in that place, and there was a clear river, and on the opposite side of it, I liked that position, sitting there watching the eternal sunset, and then slowly sinking into the dark village." ”

The strange and strange black shadow actually made a sound, it was a young boy's voice.

If you only listen to the voice, you will definitely be considered an innocent child, and you will never imagine that it will be a terrifying and scary shadow.

The boy said sadly, "But...... It's gone, Ayan, it's like a dream, and the original village is suddenly gone. ”

The two poor figures looked at each other speechlessly.

"Why can't I see what you describe? I only saw a village full of modernity, what lotus lotus pond, I only saw a stinky muddy ditch, what clear stream, did it refer to the path full of stones and weeds? You see, there are still a few cars with large emissions parked in the village, and when they start driving, the exhaust gas, nitrogen dioxide, is spraying outward. A curious voice suddenly sounded from behind Orbik.

Orbik watched warily.

A dark shadow in the pot stood in front of Orbik.

Obik said, "Tiga, are you here to destroy me?" ”

His tone was very calm, and he didn't know if he was confident that he could beat Diga, or if he didn't care about life and death anymore.

"Do I look like a bad guy like that? Don't open your mouth to fight and kill, I'm also very tired. Zao Wou-Ki waved his hand, motioning for him to relax.
