Chapter 27: Doubts (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
Chapter 27 Doubts
After the mood of the crowd had subsided slightly, Chen Wei asked Marisa, who was relieved.
"Marisa? What's going on? Why are there so many people at the shrine today? ”
But seeing Marisa's tired look, it seems that she is usually very aggressive, and she should have a headache to deal with so many people, seeing that this guy is sweaty, Chen Wei smiled and handed over a bottle of water first.
"Thank you, Chef-kun." Marisa chuckled, then took the water.
Chen Wei had a wry smile on his face, probably because he was responsible for the recent food, so he unknowingly got such a nickname as a chef... Bastards, these foodies, just use me like a kitchen!
Grunt, maybe too thirsty, Marisa poured a whole bottle of water, then wiped her sweat, as if she was saved, showed a slightly relaxed demeanor, eased up a bit, and then said slowly: "Maybe there was a change again, it's really troublesome, I don't know what kind of monster made the change." ”
"So, what about Reimu? Where did Reimu go? Why didn't you see her? When this kind of thing happens, shouldn't it all need to be presided over by a shrine maiden? Chen Wei was a little puzzled.
"Well, something happened, let's talk to you slowly." Marisa said, walking side by side with Chen Wei to the shrine. The two walked and talked.
Marisa first recalled, and then slowly said the specific situation: "Last night, at night, suddenly a villager from the world came to the shrine, asking for help, I don't know why, there are a lot of resentful spirits in the cemetery near the world, so Reimu went to deal with it, Reimu asked me to help take care of the shrine, but this morning, there were a lot of accidents, and some villagers disappeared inexplicably, but Reimu seems to have found something. Probably went to retreat to cure the monsters. ”
I see, it seems that those people came urgently because of the disappearance of their companions, right? Still is...... At this time, Chen Wei faintly thought of a more serious problem.
He pondered for a moment, then decided to tell Marisa what he knew: "Marisa, actually, I was attacked last night. ”
"Huh!! Night? Uh, aren't you supposed to sleep in a shrine? Marisa looked surprised, usually Chen Wei came back from morning exercise at this time, so she thought that Chen Wei fell asleep in the guest room last night.
Chen Wei spread his hands helplessly: "Things are more complicated, in fact, I went to do something with the great sage, but after separating from her, on the way back, I encountered an inexplicable attack." ”
Marisa frowned, she seemed to have some kind of ominous premonition, maybe it was going to be another bad change, right?
"Chef, please tell me the details of the details. Also, does Purple know you've been attacked? ”
Marisa asked.
Chen Wei shook his head: "Zi doesn't know yet, the details are not yet known, let's sit down and talk slowly, and I don't know when Reimu will be able to come back." ”
While talking, the two made a pot of tea, and then sat down next to the coffee table, drank steaming hot tea, and then talked in detail about yesterday's situation.
Chen Wei took a sip of tea, then recalled the process of being attacked yesterday, and then said: "Last night, after breaking up with Zi, ......" Chen Wei roughly described the whole process and the appearance of the enemies he saw to Marisa once, as well as the characteristics of those monsters, and explained them more carefully.
After hearing this, Marisa frowned: "According to the place you described, Chef-kun, it should be near the Forest of Magic, not far from the magic shop I opened...... There shouldn't be such a strange creature there, is it an alien species? ”
Then she said with some dissatisfaction: "When you were attacked, why didn't you go to the store to look for me!" I should have been in the store back then, really. ”
Chen Wei explained a little embarrassed: "That's because, I don't know the specific location of your store, although I know that you have opened a magic shop there, but I haven't had the time to go and see it." "To put it simply, you don't know the way, and if you accidentally get lost and you can't find Marisa, won't you be killed?
"So, you really haven't been to the store, and you've already had time to sit with me, it's really funny, hahahaha...... You don't know the way, Chef, you're really happy! Marisa laughed as she spoke, still laughing more exaggeratedly, knocking on the table, tears of laughter were about to come out, as if she had encountered something interesting, indeed, because she didn't know the way, she didn't go to the Misty Rain Magic Shop for help, it's a bit embarrassing.
Chen Wei complained a little unconvinced: "I said, Marisa...... I'm not the 9 of Lucino, so why are you looking at me like that? ”
Marisa smiled and spread her hands in a helpless tone, "Although Lucino is 9, she has a strong ability to recognize the way, although she is a fool, but she will not get lost!" ”
The young man was speechless for a while, and he couldn't help but secretly think, am I not even as good as 9 in this regard? To be honest, the reason why Lucino is called 9 is because she is a fool on the one hand, and on the other hand, probably because when she counts, if you ask her how much 4+5=, she will know that it is 9, but if you change it, 5+4=how much...... She didn't understand, and in addition to 4+5=9, she also knew the extent of 1+1=2...... IQ, probably only 9?
Chen Wei took a sip of tea helplessly, hiding his embarrassment, it's really embarrassing, it's not my fault for road idiots, besides, my ability to recognize the road is quite good, but for places I haven't been to, I can't find the direction without navigation, I'll tell you...... Ryuya really, it's okay to find such a remote meeting place to do anything. However, there was a hint of concern in Marisa's words, well, this guy is actually a very warm-hearted and good person.
Chen Wei put down the teacup and said, "Marisa, if it's an alien species, will it be more dangerous?" I've always had a sense of foreboding. ”
"Danger? Big husband Meng Da Nai! If there's any danger, leave it to me, I'm the best at solving the mutation. Marisa looked proud.
But compared to Marisa's enthusiasm, Chen Wei stretched lazily as if he was infected by Reimu: "Isn't it usually Reimu to solve the mutation, compared to Reimu, Marisa is more like a competent shrine maiden." ”
Marisa seemed to be trying to show that she was strong, and she deliberately clenched her little fist, looking like she was very capable of fighting: "Hmph, hum!" No matter what alien species they are, I'll get rid of them, don't underestimate me! ”
Suddenly, a female voice appeared outside the door that she had never heard before, felt very young and very soft: "Marisa~~Marisa~~ I made chocolate chip cookies, let's share them together!" ”
Then, I saw a short blond hair, blue eyes, white and tender skin, behind her, followed by several small dolls, as if they were real people, and she herself looked as cute as a porcelain doll, wearing a blue dress, and the design on her chest was a white shawl with a red ribbon.
The cute doll-like girl was holding a cardboard box that seemed to contain the chocolate chip cookies she had made, and she was smiling as she barged in......
Both of them couldn't help but move their eyes to the newly arrived guest.
It seemed that she didn't expect that there were strangers, and when she saw Chen Wei, she couldn't help but blush, and she was so shy that she even became hesitant to speak: "Ah...... Ahh!!hhhhh Also, there are guest ...... Guest ...... Guest, I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!! Excuse me. After saying that, he wanted to turn around and run away.
"Little love~~~ are you here?" Marisa called out to the shy girl in time, only to see that she stopped when she heard the words, but she had to look left and right, and seemed to be very afraid of life.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Ai is a little scared, she's my neighbor." Marisa hurried to play the round.
"No, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to scare you." Chen Wei smiled at Alice? Margot Royd said.
Alice couldn't help blushing, bowed, and said, "No...... No...... No excuse me, I, I, I'm just ......"
It seems that this young lady is still very afraid of life.
Marisa had to hurry to alleviate the awkward atmosphere: "That, let me introduce you, Xiao Ai, this is, Chen Wei, who recently stayed at the shrine, Reimu's tenant, is our chef-kun!" ”
"You...... Hello, please, please advise! Xiao Ai blushed and hugged the cookies, hiding behind Marisa, revealing only a small face, and quietly looked at Chen Wei.
"This is Alice? Margot Royd, is a good friend of mine. ”
"I'm sorry to scare you, I'm sorry."
Saying that, Marisa pulled Alice over and sat down together, but Xiao Ai seemed to be very afraid of people, but fortunately Marisa was there, so it was okay, but Xiao Ai was hiding behind Marisa, making people think that this shy girl looked very cute.
A few people talked for a while, and it seemed that the awkward atmosphere had eased slightly.
"Well, Miss Alice, are you a puppeteer? Are these the dolls you made? Chen Wei looked at the dolls surrounding Alice, which looked about the same size as ordinary SD dolls, but looked like real people, a petite girl with long hair in a shawl, dark blue eyes, wearing a dark blue dress, a white apron with maid characteristics, and a big red bow on her chest.
"Hmm......" Alice nodded quietly.
"Ah, I also have some tips for making dolls, so we can have a good exchange."
"Huh? Dimension...... Mr. Wei, do you also make dolls? Speaking of the dolls, Alice's eyes shone with a peculiar light.
It seemed to have found a common language, and they began to talk slowly. (To be continued.) )
