Rebirth: I Became a Maggot 2

I never imagined that I would come up with a solution when I was feeling most upset and depressed, and this solution is currently the most likely one.

So I quickly turned to Dafu beside me and asked, "I've got an idea."

"Really? What's the solution?" Dafu asked anxiously.

"Do you remember what you found to help me when you saved me?" I asked Dafu.

"What is this? I don't think I've even helped you yet, and you've already come out on your own," Dafu replied.

"A strand of hair, do you remember when you went to find a strand of hair to try and rescue me?" I asked back.

"Yeah, so what? What does it have to do with this competition?" Dafu asked, puzzled.

"It's okay? It's very important, it's extremely important!" I said hurriedly.

I thought of crying, and isn't crying just tears falling to the ground?

In this situation, the only thing to do is to fall from the sky, but when falling, you are likely to be hit by those water jets in mid-air and fall onto the water.

So, what's the only way to avoid falling? Instantly, the only possibility came to mind: hanging there…

Yes, I'm hanging there, and the only thing I can use right now is the hair that Dafu found for me this morning, it's a girl's long hair.

So this is my plan, and the only plan I can think of right now. As long as one of them is flying in the air, the other one will be tied up by its hair and lowered downwards. Even if it gets hit by a water jet and loses its ability to fly, it will eventually slowly fall towards the little red flower on the broken ship.

The only way I can think of right now is to avoid being pulled down to the surface by the force of the water column.

I feel like I can't explain it to Dafu no matter what I say. The most important thing now is to find the hair. Once we have the hair, everything will be solved.

As the sun slowly set, our time was running out. If we didn't finish our hair before dark, the activity would end.

This will be the only tournament without a champion, and all of this news comes from that strange promotional advertisement.

I always thought English was my lifelong enemy. I always refused to learn what I considered to be the most difficult language in the world, arguing that my great nation didn't need to learn English.

But a swarm of flies flying right in front of me said so many rules and so much information. What kind of language is this fly language? This is ridiculous!

Did Dafu see so much information inside? I don't know if he's lying to me, but given Dafu's character, he wouldn't lie to me.

That means we really don't have much time left, so the only thing we need to do now is go find a hair salon.

And she has long hair...

So I took Dafu and went to find the hair salon. When those waves saw that I was about to leave, they immediately stopped arguing and flew over, trapping me in the middle.

I couldn't stand their nonsense anymore. Besides, time was running out. Whoever found the hair first would get the little red flower, and finding that hair in the current time was a very slim chance.

So I told them my plan, and when they heard the news, they immediately left and flew towards the village.

It seems there's more to this competition than meets the eye. As they flew away, Dafu and I quickly flew towards the houses in the village where there might be people with long hair.

Luckily, we wandered around the village yesterday and basically knew people with long hair, so we headed towards our target.

But I clearly underestimated those guys' strength. When I arrived at the first house, the bees were already there. They wanted this one, so we had to go to the next one.

When we arrived at the second venue, Dragonfly was there again. Their reason was also very good: now is a crucial time in the competition. We will still be brothers after the competition, but I will give it my all in the competition.

Obviously, this one won't work either; it's hopeless again.

When we arrived at the third house with a long-haired female lead, the Butterfly family was there. Butterfly said in a very coquettish and cute way, "Little brother, you're not going to steal it from me, are you? If you really want to take it, I'll give it to you. Is it really okay for you to bully people like this?"

What else can I say? I'm a gentleman, and I have a habit of deferring to women regardless of their species, so I can only continue looking for another one.

When they arrived at the fourth house, Captain Fly was already there. His explanation was more direct: "For the honor of the race, you know what to do."

What else can I do? Can't I just leave?

I'm relying on a bunch of inhuman creatures—no, they're inhuman insects.

I flew towards the fifth house, quite annoyed. Now, surely no one can compete with me?

But those damned fly father and son were already there, saying they would search every part of the house carefully, and that I should just stand there and wait, since I had helped them so much, it was only right that they helped me.

That sounds nice, but if you find it, will you give it to me? If you find it, won't you rush off to complete the task yourself? Why would you give it back to me?

They've already put it this way, what can I do? Fight them on the spot? Am I that kind of person?

I'm sure I'm not one of them, so I had to go to the next one. But where could I go next? There aren't many women with long hair these days.

This is in the countryside, where most people do farm work. So, to look more capable and avoid the heat, they all have short hair. The few people with long hair have already been taken over by them.

Now, as soon as they find suitable hair, they can rush to complete the task.

How they search and where they search is their business, and I don't care at all about how they search now.

I'm worried about where I'll go to look for it, where I'll go looking for it, where I'll find it myself?

After thinking it over and over, the only one I could think of was that honest man's wife. It seemed like only her hair was long enough. If all else failed, I could just find two strands, tie them in a knot, and that would be long enough.

Actually, before I came here, I asked Dafu where he found the hair. Dafu said that he found the hair at the first place where the bees were staking out, so that's why we went to the first place. Now it seems that I can only hurry up and look for the hair at that honest house.

But when we arrived at that honest man's house, before we even entered, I heard the last thing I should have heard, the last thing I wanted to hear. The honest man's wife said irritably, "You're pressing on my hair."

Holy crap, it's not even dark yet! What are they doing? What are they trying to do?
