Chapter 32: Nightmare Memories (3)
Of course, these words will not be said by Goto Makoto. After all, Hideki Saito also did these things for her, even if it was useless, Hideki Saito's heart also moved her very much.
After sorting out the photos a little and putting them aside, Hideki Saito took out a notebook, opened it and said, "Makoto, I found in the documents in the library that the history of Goto Town is far beyond our imagination. ”
"How?" Goto asked.
"From the accounts I found in the library, it seems that the town of Goto existed a thousand years ago. For more than a thousand years, the town of Goto seems to face a catastrophe every few hundred years. Immediately after that, the records of Goto Town will be cut off for decades, as if someone had erased Goto Town from history during this time. And so on and on and on, and so on, to this day. ”
Hideki Saito's words were a little bizarre, and Goto Makoto was also a little frightened, and said, "Could it be that there are youkai living under Goto Town?" ”
Since ancient times, there have been many legends of various ghosts, gods and monsters in Japan, and even in modern times, there are often rumors of various supernatural events. Goto Makoto said this, of course, there were some jokes, but she really believed that there might be monsters under Goto Town.
Hideki Saito shook his head and said, "Goto Town is not famous in history, and besides, all kinds of natural and man-made disasters in ancient times, a random plague, or a war may lead to the disappearance of a village or even a city. These things can't be taken seriously, maybe it's just a coincidence. ”
Then, Hideki Saito flipped through several other notebooks and said, "I haven't completely copied the documents in the library, but I have roughly flipped through them, and I haven't mentioned the information about Dragonfly Pond, so I hope I'm thinking too much...... But, Makoto, these days, you pay more attention to your father's situation. I don't think the abnormality you felt yesterday was fake, after all, it was your relatives who got along day and night, and if something was wrong, it was normal for you to notice it at the first time. ”
Goto Makoto nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pay more attention." ”
Hideki Saito said, "Also, Makoto, you have to be more careful yourself." If nothing happens, that's the best, but if there's anything, you come to my house right away, you know? ”
"I see."
In the evening, when Goto Makoto returned home, he unexpectedly found that in the living room, I don't know when a lot of ceramics were placed.
These ceramics fill the coffee table in the living room, and even the carpet is filled.
"These porcelain?" Goto Makoto frowned and picked up a piece of porcelain from the ground. This porcelain is very strange, the color is very dim, and it is covered with spiral patterns. What's even more bizarre is that this porcelain is shaped like a Klein bottle, and there is no difference between inside and outside.
There is more than one such strange porcelain, and the ground and the coffee table are full of this kind of similar and strange porcelain, although not all of them are this kind of Klein bottles, but they are all strangely shaped ceramics, and there is no normal shape.
Not only that, but these ceramics are covered with similar spiral patterns, which look very strange.
Playing with the Klein bottle in his hand, Goto Makoto also wondered, where did these things come from? Could it be her father's work yesterday?
Suddenly, Goto Makoto, who was playing with the Klein bottle, suddenly saw a face on the bottle of this bottle. That's a horrible twisted human face!
That human face seems to be embedded in the inside of the bottle, constantly struggling and crying, which looks extremely hideous!
This face is unusually realistic and terrifying, so that Goto Makoto, who was caught off guard and saw this face, was startled, and couldn't help screaming, his hand slipped, and the bottle in his hand suddenly fell to the ground and shattered!
Screams and the sound of bottles breaking were heard, and a rush of footsteps suddenly rang out. Goto Makoto's father, Goto Kusuke, had already hurried over.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?! Kusuke Goto exclaimed in a panic.
But when he came to the door of the living room and saw Goto Makoto and the broken porcelain, he was stunned.
"You ......"
Kusuke Goto's eyes widened, looking at the debris on the ground in disbelief, and then at his daughter, who was still in shock.
"Dad...... Father...... What's going on with this porcelain? Goto Makoto was taken aback, and still a little unrelieved, and asked weakly.
However, what Goto Makoto never expected was that Kusuke Goto's face suddenly showed a hideous color, and he roared at her-
"You idiot, what did you do?!"
Immediately, a loud slap sounded in the living room.
Goto Makoto sat on the ground, covering her face with her hands, she couldn't believe that her father would be angry with her because of that weird porcelain, and even beat her?!
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
The movement in the living room also alarmed Goto Makoto's mother and her younger brother Masao. However, when the mother and Masao rushed to the living room, they saw Goto Makoto with tears in their eyes, and Goto Kusuke, who was still furious.
"Ahh Makoto, what's wrong with your face?! ”
Makoto's mother hugged Makoto, and then carefully looked at the red palm prints on her face.
Then, she turned her head angrily and shouted at Kusuke Goto, "Old man, are you crazy?!" Why are you still beating up your daughter! ”
Not to be outdone, Kusuke Goto roared, "What do you know?!" This idiot, she broke my work! ”
"If it's broken, it's broken!" Makoto's mother's voice was louder than that of Kusuke Goto, and she said angrily, "Anyway, what kind of thing did you burn?" It's not worth a few bucks! Break it and break it! What's the big deal?! ”
"What did you say?!" Kusuke Goto suddenly went berserk, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed Makoto's mother's arm, and then shook her body desperately, leaned his face closer to her and yelled, "That's a work of art!" It's the greatest work of art of my life! It's the result of my hard work! ”
Goto Kusuke's crazy appearance is something Goto Makoto and her mother and brother have never seen, Goto Kusuke's temper is definitely not big, and he has no history of mental illness, his appearance really scares them.
Goto Masao burst into tears, he had never seen such a terrible father, Goto Makoto hurriedly hugged him and left the living room, not daring to let him see this terrible scene again.
That night, Goto Makoto's parents had a big quarrel, and even alarmed the parents of Hideki Saito next door, and they persuaded them for a long time to reconcile the two.
However, since that day, Kusuke Goto's temper and behavior have become more and more bizarre, and he is even more reluctant to let others touch the strange ceramics he made.
