Chapter 125: Liar(1/2)
"Here, this is it!"
After getting off the Black Panther, Beidou followed the boy's guidance and looked at a villa in front of him.
The villa is not Japanese-style, but a Western-style bungalow, but it looks a bit old. The original white walls are mottled with the traces of time, and it is at least forty or fifty years old.
Were there such Western-style houses in Tokyo forty or fifty years ago?
It’s hard to say, maybe it was left by the ‘foreign masters’ back then. After the black ship incident, this place became the back garden of the foreign masters.
"Are you sure there is a super beast here?"
The villa in front of me looks like a wealthy family. It suddenly occupies a large space among low-rise bungalows. Such a house should appear in Setagaya District, where many wealthy businessmen and celebrities live, and
It shouldn't appear in this civilian neighborhood.
It’s amazing that there can be such a large garden in the urban area of Tokyo. Not to mention, looking in from the bronze iron gate, there is a swimming pool and a golf course in the garden! In addition to the large garden with its own castle
Dao Family, this is the most luxurious villa Beidou has ever seen.
Because of the appearance of the tac team, some passers-by were attracted to watch.
After receiving the alarm call from Yasuo, this time the tac team came with Beidou and Yamanaka.
"I said, if there really were super beasts, this place would have been crushed long ago, right?" Shanzhong said angrily.
It is also rare for the TAC team to receive false alarms. Sometimes the citizens are too sensitive and mistake the slightest disturbance for a super beast, but sometimes it is because some children are naughty and deliberately lie.
From Yamanaka's point of view, what they encountered this time was undoubtedly the latter. Not to mention that the TAC team's radar did not capture the slightest signal, but to say that a super beast weighing tens of thousands of tons appeared here without any trace. Think about it
It makes people feel incredible.
This is not a deserted mountainous area, but a crowded Tokyo!
Compared to Beidou, Yamanaka doesn't look at children differently. In his opinion, children are synonymous with being naughty, lying, and getting into trouble. He really doesn't understand why Beidou often believes in these little devils.
After receiving such a call, it seemed to Yamanaka that coming to check was unnecessary. If Captain Long hadn't ordered it, he would have hung up the phone directly.
"But, I really saw——"
Yasuo was a little less confident when he spoke. The peaceful scene in front of him made him wonder if what he just saw was an illusion.
"I said, your name is Yasuo, right?" Beidou lowered his body and looked at the boy and said, "Have you really seen the super beast? Can you tell me in detail what you saw?"
"It's like this. Half an hour ago, I was sitting on the banyan tree in the woods in front of me. It was my secret base. Then I saw spring water suddenly spurting out from under the ground, and the spring water turned into a super beast.
, and made a strange sound. In the end, the super beast turned into a swimming pool. It’s that swimming pool!” Yasuo pointed to a swimming pool on the lawn behind the bronze door.
The swimming pool is not a standard rectangle, but looks like a naturally formed pond that was built with ceramic tiles. It also looks like it has been around for a while.
But, Super Beast turned into a swimming pool?
"Did you say there were strange sounds?"
Beidou asked the passers-by around, but no one else heard it. Some people watching the excitement left after being asked a few questions by the tac team.
"Ha, Beidou, it's time for us to go on patrol."
Yamazaka walked behind the black panther, feeling that time was wasted. And this time Beidou couldn't believe the child. After all, it was too bizarre, and there was no logic between the words. Anyone who heard it would think it was a child's fabrication.
"Don't you believe me, Brother Beidou?"
The boy asked this, and Beidou didn't know how to answer. He wouldn't scold the child like Yamanaka, but he really didn't believe what the other person said. So he could only pat the boy on the shoulder.
"Okay, Yasuo, I have remembered what you said, and I will pay attention to patrolling the area. Now it's time to go home and do homework."
"Beidou, what are you still dawdling about?" Yamazaka, who was sitting on the driver's seat of the Black Panther on the roadside, stuck his head out of the window and urged.
"Okay, I'll come over now!" Beidou responded, nodded to Yasuo, and walked back to get into the patrol car.
Seeing the tac team leaving Yasuo was a bit at a loss. He had indeed lied before and was called a 'liar', but this time he told the truth! Why didn't anyone believe him when he told the truth?
He felt embarrassed by the pointing fingers from passers-by around him, so he ran away.
Forget it, even if there is a super beast, it has nothing to do with him. He has already said it, but the adults don’t believe it.
Yes, that's it, he is just a liar, and he is also a 'thief'. No need to put quotation marks, he did steal something from his classmates, and today he was pulled to the door of the classroom and made to stand by the teacher.
Just treat it like you told another lie. You've long been used to this kind of thing.
But wait a minute——
Running forward for a block, Yasuo's pace suddenly slowed down. His home was in the next block, so the woods over there became his secret base. But when did this villa appear next door to his home?
I remember just seeing the surname on the house plate was Zhoushan. Zhoushan, he didn’t have much impression of this surname.
Was there a house here before? It seems not, but it seems there was. Yasuo suddenly became unconfident about his memory.
At this time, Yasuo saw Zenta and Jiro walking towards each other. They were each holding something. If they looked carefully, they were swimming shorts and swimming caps, as well as a life preserver that they had held in after deflating.
"Zenta Jiro"
Although they had just met half an hour ago and were scolded by the other party as a liar, Yasuo was holding back his words at the moment, always wanting to talk to a familiar friend.
"Where are you two going?"
Zenta and Jiro stopped. The two of them were also like this. They had just had a quarrel, but unlike adults who hold grudges, children can quickly forget about things even a few minutes ago.
"Let's go swimming. Uncle and Auntie Zhoushan invited us to go, didn't they invite you?"
"Have you forgotten? Yasuo can't swim, why invite him?" Jiro interjected.
"Ah, it seems so, no wonder."
If you can't swim, there's nothing you can do. Yasuo really can't swim. He's a landlubber and will be afraid of water, so he can't refute this.
But, Zhoushan? That was the last name written on the wall of the villa just now. Looking at the two people talking and laughing in front of him, Yasuo’s sense of abruptness became clearer and clearer.
"You mean uncle and aunt Zhoushan? Are you familiar with them?"
After these words were spoken, Yasuo saw Zenta and Jiro looking at him as if they were looking at something strange, as if he had said something particularly strange.
"What are you talking about? Of course we all know our neighbors. Didn't we often swim there in the past?"
"It must be because Yasuo can't swim, so he hasn't been there before. It's useless for you to tell him this."
"Ah, that's it. What do you think, Yasuo, will you come with us? It doesn't matter if you don't know how to swim. I can lend you the lifebuoy. I have learned to swim, and I can swim even without the lifebuoy."
Yasuo shook his head.
"I won't go, and you can't go either. That swimming pool was transformed by a super beast."
"Super beast?"
"Ah ha ha ha"
They are already immune to the word "liar" and are too lazy to say anything to him. I really don't know what fun it is to lie all day long. No wonder no one plays with him. He must have no friends in school, right?
The two of them ignored Yasuo at all. Yasuo was 'lying' again, which made them lose interest in continuing to chat. They just left and walked towards the villa.
Very weird.
I had originally planned to ignore it, but a certain absurd feeling lingered in Yasuo's mind and couldn't be erased.
Neighbors? Uncle and aunt Zhoushan?
Why didn't he know they had such a neighbor?
Speaking of which, it was obviously not far from his 'secret base', just out of the woods, only a few dozen meters away, but he had no impression of this villa at all.
However, if he wanted to say that there was no villa here before, he could not recall what it was like there before. It was as if the memory was covered with a veil, and the fuzzy part could not be erased even if he tried hard to erase it.
So, what is true and what is false?
If he can't even trust his own memory, what else can he trust? Is this the retribution for his usual lies?
"Now, do you think magic really exists in this world? I'm not talking about monsters, the alien technology of space people, but real magic."
The talking Reimu is eating watermelon.
It's a small watermelon, grown in the melon field behind Izumo Shrine.
Normally, watermelons will be sold to pilgrims after they bear fruit, and they are also considered as one of the specialties of the shrine. However, this is the last watermelon left in the melon field in autumn. It has stopped growing after the frost. Even the Lord Boli will not use it like this.
of watermelons to sell to others.
Most of these watermelons ended up in Reimu's stomach. And Marisa Kirisame, who came to 'beat the autumn wind' - no, it was Sanae Tashima who also ate some without warning.
"Ling doesn't want to eat either?"
"Bold, call Lady Freya death! Woo——"
With a sword in hand, Reimu couldn't accept the fact that his little follower had 'rebelled' in just half a day. Moreover, he hadn't even put down his own melon, so he was eating everything inside.
This guy Tou Shou used to always call himself ‘master’.
Although she had never taken it seriously and it was just a game between the two of them, it still made her feel uncomfortable to rebel so easily. Even if the other party was the 'Guardian of the Star', 'The Descendant of Crowrido', 'From
Cardcaptors in Tokyo'.
"I won't eat it. Watermelon in autumn will cause diarrhea." Ling also refused.
Watermelon is inherently cold, and watermelon in autumn is even colder. Ling has never been able to eat cold food in the past. She hasn’t tried it much since she came to this world, but she is still used to it and doesn’t want to touch it. She only knows the feeling of stomachache after experiencing it.
