Episode 103 Friends, Enemies!
"Oh, there's something like this happening!"
After listening to Barnyard Aqiu's words, Yakumo Zi raised her eyebrows interestingly.
Why is this damn creature lying on top of my head?
"Hey, hurry up and get me down! β
Don't think that having a lori looks is enough to make me take it lightly, I know her better than anyone else.
"Woohoo, it's really annoying!"
Yakumo Zi covered her mouth and laughed softly, but the laughter was terrifying. It's as if a pair of evil eyes are secretly peeking at you, and you can't help but get goosebumps.
"Well, you're a little overweight, it's time to lose weight!"
The way she looks may scare others, but it's of no use to me.
"It's too much, eh, to say such an excessive thing to a young girl......"
The crack monster covered his face with an extremely sad expression, and said with a whimper.
I feel like the green tendons on the top of my head are about to protrude.
"Don't pretend to be tender in front of others when you're old!"
"What did you say?"
This time, Yakumo finally came down from the top of my head, but instead she wrapped her arms around my neck.
"Damn, this time you must taste the wrath of the girl......"
"Ahem, ahem. β
Barnyard Aqiu coughed loudly a few times, there was no way, the two people talked about the topic farther and farther, and she had to remind the other party.
"Don't make a fuss. β
I tore off Yakumo's hand, but people have something to ask for help, how can they be so careless?
"Phew. β
The Crack Youkai spat and sat down on the couch around the corner.
"That's about how it happened. β
Seeing that everyone was focusing on themselves again, Barnyard Aqiu said.
"So, do you know where the other party comes from?"
"I don't know, although I found some clues, but I haven't been confirmed yet. β
"Oh......"
I pondered for a moment and felt that I couldn't find the answer just by guessing here.
"Well, I'm going to go to the village now and see how everyone is doing?"
"Really?"
As soon as he heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately stood up.
"Then please. β
============================= divider =============================
The streets are deserted during the day, and the noise of weekdays seems to have disappeared all at once. Occasionally, a few pedestrians wander here, but they also seem listless.
The once vibrant world suddenly became a little lifeless.
"Oh no, it seems to have become stricter!"
Barnyard Aqiu's brows furrowed deeply, and he realized that something was wrong in the morning, but he didn't expect that after just leaving for a while, the situation became more and more serious.
"I'm infected!"
I looked at the people walking the streets like the walking dead and said in a deep voice.
"Contagion?"
Could it be that they are sick? But they don't look unwell!
"In fact, it is not only diseases that can be transmitted from person to person, but also love. β
As if reading through her thoughts, I replied.
"And it's spreading faster and more widely than any other disease. β
"Then they ......"
Barnyard Aqiu understood it, but he became more anxious.
"They're fine, they're just affected a little bit. β
"Oh......"
"However, if this situation lasts too long, these people will also become like those who have lost their feelings. β
"Ahh
The heart that had just been put down suddenly hung up again.
"Now you can bring some of the people who saw Noh yesterday first! I want to check their health. β
"Yes. β
After examination, the results were not very surprising, as I thought, there was indeed a strange demonic power in the bodies of these people.
It is exactly the same as what was found in the body of Yunju.
So, it's the same person who did it!
It's just that he seems to be a guy who doesn't know how to be restrained! Even if there were no actual casualties, it would not be permissible to go too far.
"It seems that there is a need for a scene of waiting for the rabbit!"
"Waiting for the rabbit?"
Kamihakuzawa Huiyin blinked, a little confused as to what the first word she heard meant.
"That's an allusion from the mainland, and it's about...... Forget it, I'll tell you again when I have time! In short, it's just waiting for the other party to send it to the door himself. β
is worthy of Miss Aqiu, the knowledgeable Cheng dΓΉ, she is still far from being able to compare!
"But, Your Excellency. β
Although he understood what the other party meant, he also had doubts in his heart.
"How can you be sure that guy is willing to come to the door?"
Now that someone has found out, I'm afraid the other party won't appear in the world again, right?
"Absolutely. β
I pulled out a white mask from my bosom and put it over my face.
"Because, the 'strain' is in my hand!"
"Huh?"
Barnyard Aqiu followed Bai Ze Huiyin and looked at the mask and was stunned for a long time.
"Isn't this noh?"
The appearance of this mask is not much different from ordinary Noh noodles, but when you look at it, you can't help but feel a wave of nervousness in your heart.
This is very similar to the mask worn by the yokai girl who danced Noh yesterday.
"If I'm not mistaken, this thing should belong to her. β
"Huh...... Eh, eh, eh!"
The girls screamed at the same time, which was really astonishing.
"But, but, how did her things end up in your hands?"
"I picked it up last time, I guess she accidentally lost it!"
I took the mask off and gently stroked its smooth face.
"Perhaps, this time the monster attacked people everywhere, and it also had something to do with it. β
"Ah, does it matter?"
"This is no ordinary mask, but made with the power of 'hope'. β
Through guΓ² analysis, I have basically figured out the essence of this thing.
In short, it's an item that materializes emotion. It's just about what exactly it's for, it's still in the validation phase.
"Hope ......"
β...... power?"
The two of them thought about it for a while, but they still couldn't understand.
"Forgive me for being stupid, can you speak in more detail?"
"Having lost this mask of hope, she is now collecting 'hope' to create a new face of hope. β
Although these are just my conjectures, they probably can't be too far from the truth.
"Gathering Hope...... Oh, I see. β
No wonder they suddenly become so exhausted and lose any hope for the future.
Damn, that guy dared to fool the villagers like this, it's unforgivable.
Kamibai Zehuiyin looked at the mask, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
"By the way, Lord Dongfang, since the things she lost happen to be in your hands, as long as you return them to her quickly, can't you let her send back the things she took away?"
"Yes, that's right. β
When he heard this, he also thought that this approach was very reasonable.
"That's too cheap, she!"
To their surprise, the man shook his head at this mention.
If she had just given it back to her, she would have made the same mistake in the future. β
"Hmmm......"
The two of them thought for a while, and they also felt that what the other party said was right. That youkai was obviously not mature enough, otherwise it wouldn't have done such an excessive thing.
"So, does Your Excellency Dongfang have any ideas?"
"Yes, it is necessary to teach her a profound lesson. β
I tapped my index finger on my knee and said.
Let her also experience what it is like to have the most important thing taken away. β
This time, it's time for me to play the role of the bad guy!
============================= divider =============================
"Alas......"
The Heavenly Evil Ghost lay on a relatively thick branch, his face against the body of the tree, and lamented weakly. Her hands hung down as if she had no bones, and sometimes she would unconsciously swing a few times.
"It's such a fun day!"
"That's right! It's boring. β
Chi Manqi, who was sitting at the base of the tree, was similar to her, and he also looked listless.
Nothing interesting has happened lately, and they are all about to suffocate.
"Hey, you two, cheer me up!"
It's really unseemly, as soon as they slack off, they immediately become completely unmotivated.
"Hello to Acupuncture Pills! I have eaten and slept all day, slept enough to eat, and lived a really carefree life. β
"That's it!"
"Bastard, don't call me a pig!"
The young name Acuchimaru was suddenly angry with them, and hated it to death, these two idiots, how could they become companions with them?
"Alright, hurry up for me, it's time to go!"
"Where to go?"
"Don't ask so much, get me up first. β
Seeing that Chi Manqi still looked reluctant to move, the young name Aneedle Miyomaru took out the bamboo skewer he carried with him and poked her hard in the neck.
"It hurts!"
This time, Red Manqi finally stood up.
Or rather, it hurts so much that it jumps.
"Damn, you little man, you dare to do that to me, don't think you can be safe!"
Chi Manqi grabbed the young name needle pill with both hands, and said through gritted teeth.
"Who do you call a dwarf...... Woo whoa, stop it, it's going to be pinched!"
"Boom, here we go again!"
Looking at the two guys who were making noise under the tree, the ghost man couldn't help but yawn.
"Hope...... More hope must be gathered......"
"Who is it?"
The Heavenly Demon was startled, turned over and sat down on the tree, while the two Red Barbarians below also stopped fighting.
This ethereal and strange sound made them instinctively feel the danger.
A blue flame erupted in the air, and a pink figure slowly emerged from within. She just floated silently in mid-air, a large amount of pale blue air circling around her.
"Ghosts?"
The first thing the two of them felt when they saw each other was that it looked like an undead.
"Not true. β
The demons jumped down from the tree and stood in front of them.
"She's a friend. β
"Oh, it's a friend!"
Chi Manqi suddenly relieved his heart, but why was this girl's expression so grim?
Hey, I almost forgot about it, she's a demon, and what she says is the opposite of what she intended!
Other words......
"This guy is the enemy!"
