Tokyo, Narita International Airport, Japan

Comrade Cai Rong, who had just recovered from illness and was discharged from the hospital, lifted her skirt and stepped out of the back seat of the car, turned around and waved goodbye to Wang Yao, the commissioner of the Chengguan Dogtooth International Column in Japan, who drove her to the airport, and then dragged a heavy trolley into the waiting hall alone.

Like the rest of Japan, Narita International Airport was much more deserted than it used to be.

Many of the souvenir shops outside the airport are closed, and most of the rest are placards that say "Foreign currency is welcome." The Starbucks café at the airport is still open, but its customers are almost exclusively foreigners, just like it was after World War II.

Although the new Japanese cabinet at this time tried its best to divert the public's attention with "good news" such as "female astronauts on the moon" that would raise national pride, the cruel reality of the market depression, economic collapse, and high unemployment and prices still made the Japanese citizens who were increasingly struggling to survive no longer have much excitement and pride about what happened in the universe.

At this time, Japan's national debt crisis broke out in full swing, Tokyo's stock market also completely collapsed, and countless bankrupt shareholders jumped off buildings and hanged themselves. A large number of banks, companies and shops have been forced to close their doors. The unemployed who could not pay their rent and lived on the streets filled the streets of Tokyo for a while. Their crumpled blazers and dirty shirts stand out on the bustling streets, where the unemployed have to live on grassy river beaches because they have no food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and the government is in arrears of benefits. Build dirty, rudimentary shacks and compete with wild dogs and crows for leftovers around stinking garbage heaps. There was even a terrible tragedy in which a large number of crows pecked to death a lone homeless.

Even office workers who have temporarily kept their jobs are still in their pockets in the face of hyperinflation, where prices are rising upwards -- with the collapse of the Japanese economy and the financial sniping of Wall Street in the United States, the yen has depreciated at a rate that has exceeded the record since the post-war period. In just two months after the riots and mutiny in Tokyo, prices have quadrupled or tripled, and continue to rise at an even more alarming rate.

This unprecedented post-war hyperinflation hit the livelihoods of Tokyo residents all at once. Let their food, clothing, shelter and transportation be embarrassed.

Today, in stores in Tokyo, Japan, a skewer of grilled eel can be sold for 2,000 yen, and a small cup of coffee can be sold for 1,200 yen. A small carton of milk is worth 800 yen, a can of soda has risen to 500 yen, and phone bills, rent, and utility bills are also rising...... According to NHK News, the level of inflation in Japan now. It is almost the same as Argentina, when the currency crisis reached its peak in 2002.

Therefore. Even in the departure hall of Narita International Airport, the Japanese here are sad and depressed, and they don't even say anything when they walk with their heads down, and when they do, they are bound to be full of sorrow...... Japan's never-ending economic slump was enough to be frustrating. Now seeing that the savings accumulated over the years have shrunk by half in an instant, no one can accept the reality with peace of mind.

Gentlemen in high-class suits, noblewomen in mink coats, and so on who stand at the top of the social pyramid. Many also showed up at the airport, seemingly interrupting the flight with their families overseas, who often owned assets, stocks and real estate abroad. Even today, the Japanese economy is on the verge of bankruptcy. As long as these wealthy people move their funds and enterprises overseas, they will not have a chance to make a comeback.

When these wealthy people and big companies flee abroad, it is clear that the situation in Japan will deteriorate even further.

In the midst of this gloomy depression, the situation of the retired elderly is particularly miserable - they are unable to work and live on government pensions. And in the midst of soaring inflation, that pitiful pension has become more and more unspent.

For example, when Cai Rong was listening to MP3 on the bench in the waiting room and closing her eyes, she heard an old lady complaining to her wife from the seat behind her: "...... Ana replied, the price of everything in the market is skyrocketing, only the pension is not rising, so how can we live? After paying the rent and utility bills for a month's pension, you can buy some white rice and burdock and you won't be able to do it! I can't even afford to eat fish! ”

“…… Otherwise, when you receive your pension next month, you can exchange it for dollars or euros. The old man replied angrily.

“…… If I can exchange it, do I still need to worry so much? Now not to mention the dollar and the euro, even the Korean won and the Australian dollar are hard to come by! The only foreign currency that is relatively easy to exchange seems to be the Vietnamese dong. Even then, you have to go to the black market......"

“…… VND? What's the use of holding the money of that backward country? Also, I've heard that inflation in Vietnam is also very strong! ”

“…… No matter how bad the situation in Vietnam is, at least it is better than Japan's. Today's Japan is no longer an economic powerhouse! Deposits in the bank have depreciated by four-fifths in just two months, almost like the collapse of the Soviet Union!

Alas, I heard that in Russia in those years, because bank savings were suddenly worthless overnight, the retired elderly were the most starved to death and frozen. At that time, I also lamented that the Russians were living a miserable life...... I didn't think it would be Japan's turn now, and I just caught up with my generation......"

“…… If the situation is really bad to the extreme, and we can't survive on the Japanese side, let's go to Shanghai to take care of our son and daughter-in-law......

In short, when it comes to their future lives, the two Japanese retirees both feel that the future is dark.

And in the LCD TV hanging in the waiting hall, among the NHK news that is being broadcast, it is also bad news and then bad news.

“…… Due to the current extreme disorder in the exchange rate of foreign currencies, various countries have demanded that the yen be stopped, and the yen is gradually being excluded from the international market. So far, the government has convened several emergency cabinet meetings to take countermeasures, but it has still not been able to come up with effective solutions.

Worse. Under pressure from various countries, the Tokyo foreign exchange market has gradually switched from yen settlement to dollar or euro settlement, further shaking people's confidence in the yen. Six hours ago. At a press conference, the US Treasury Secretary publicly stated: "The current situation facing the yen is not just a collapse in the value of the currency, but that it is being removed from the international currency." ’……”

“…… Alas, I have never heard of any improvement in Japan's economic situation in the past two months, and I don't know how far it will deteriorate this morning...... Forget it, I'm not Japanese anyway, and now I'm going back to Japan soon! Why are you worrying about them so much? ”

Cai Rong yawned as she muttered like this. Once again, I was immersed in the beautiful music that echoed inside the headphones.

However, what Cai Rong didn't know at this time was that due to the will of some kind of great universe in the underworld. A dark and deep mass of unidentified matter is gradually forming in her trolley case, condensing into some kind of black hole that can connect with other shijie......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

At the same time, Wang Qiu also drove his mother Wang Meiling's Mazda car. Follow the instructions of the on-board GPS positioning system. Starting from Xichang, we marched towards Zhejiang, and embarked on the road home with trepidation.

-- Although he is only a fourth-year university student, he has actually been getting his driver's license for more than a year.

However, such a long journey across almost all of South China was also the first for Wang Qiu.

Two of his traveling companions, Sonya, the wolf maiden political commissar, were sitting in the passenger seat with their heads tilted, a bottle of empty Moutai rolling at their feet. There was also a pungent smell of wine in his mouth. And the zombie shrine maiden Sanae Rika is lying on the back seat with a dress on her head. Like the Sleeping Beauty from Grimm's fairy tales. Just like when she was packed in an inflatable doll's mail bag a few months ago and delivered to Wang Qiu's home by a courier company.

But this time, this petite and cute zombie witch will never stand up on her own again.

Because, her soul had disappeared from this cold body, and she suddenly fell asleep one morning. Next, for the sake of secrecy and just in case, Wang Qiu decided to drive her body back by herself, and then discuss with her sister how to deal with her funeral.

A few days later, standing in front of the door of his house that he had not seen for a long time, Wang Qiu couldn't help but sigh deeply, took out the key and unlocked the door.

But then, as soon as he pushed the door open, he was so smoked by the heat gushing out of the door that he almost fell on the spot!

“…… Hey, Senior Sister Ma Tong! Why are you turning the heating on so much? It's a waste of electricity! ”

Wang Qiu rolled his eyes and complained, raising his feet to go inside...... But in the next moment, his whole being froze and stopped all movements.

Because, the scene that appeared in the house at this time made him dare not look at himself.

- He saw several bare carcasses of white flowers entangled with each other. Body! It's not scientific!

So, Wang Qiu rubbed his eyes, closed the door, took a deep breath of cold air, and then opened the door again.

――In front of me, there is still a group of blushing and heart-pounding flesh, hip waves, and coquettish panting......

“…… Behave, Rongrong, throw away the extra clothes and the festival together! Otherwise, how would you go to ancient Egypt? ”

“…… Babbling - don't! You two sluts, get out of here! ”

At this moment, Senior Sister Ma Tong and Xue Ji Dailan, who were naked and naked, were working together to push the only person in the room who was wearing clothes, Cai Rong, who came back at some point, to the ground, trying to peel off her dress...... and has already pulled out Cai Rong's bear underwear.

“…… Hey, what the hell are you guys doing? Is it to play Lily Camp while I'm away? It's really enviable, weishenme won't let me get involved...... Uh, no, what's going on with that wormhole? ”

He suddenly noticed a deep black hole suspended in the center of the living room, and he couldn't help but scream.

“…… Of course, there is a new wormhole around Cai Rong! Comrade Wang Qiu. Of course, you have to get involved in this matter......"

Senior Sister Ma Tong raised her head from the carpet and replied naked, as if she didn't mind her spring light leaking out, "...... This time the wormhole is connected to the ancient Egyptian shijie of BC. And the traverser who caused the wormhole also happens to be an old acquaintance of ours - guess who? ”

“…… Old acquaintances? Could it be Professor Yang? No? Which teacher or classmate was in your previous school? Nor is it? Who the hell is it? ”

Wang Qiu casually mentioned a few names, but they were all denied by Senior Sister Ma Tong one by one, and Zuihou was still exposed by Cai Rong, the vitality Lori who fell to the ground, "...... It's Sanae Rika! It's the zombie witch who mailed herself as an inflatable doll! ”

“…… Sanae Rika ?!! How is this possible?!!! ”

Wang Qiu let out an incredible scream, first glanced at the wormhole suspended in the center of the living room, and looked back at the "remains" of Sanae Rika who was carried on Sonya's shoulder, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while......
