song of water and fire

Just stay in human society, I just want him to feel the beauty and happiness of human life as much as possible before he leaves, as for other..."

"Actually, Rin is also very happy to meet Haruka."

"what?"

"Speaking of which, Yao always gives me a feeling of deja vu."

"...When you say that, I seem to have a little bit of it."

"Maybe we've met before?"

"No, Makoto," Rin pouted. "If I really saw a half-murloc, no matter how long it has passed, I probably won't forget it."

"That's right." Makoto also decided not to dwell on this issue.

"At least we know him now."

"Speaking of which, the moment I was rescued by him, I didn't seem to be so afraid of the sea." Zhenqin stared at the blue sea, and suddenly recalled the blue in her distant eyes that day.

"I knew..." Rin looked at Nagisa who was making a fuss and Haruka who was swimming happily in the sea next to him, and suddenly smiled.

"The appearance of this guy is indeed a good thing."

The author has something to say: due to the plot, this chapter is a little shorter...

☆、Chapter 22

"Wow, it smells so good." After smelling the aroma of grilled fish, Nagisa finally gave up exploring the mystery of Haruka's tail, and ran over to wait for the grilled fish to be cooked.

"Sure enough, only food can attract you..." Rin skillfully flipped the two grilled fish, and applied the honey layer by layer on the skin of the grilled fish with the small brush that he brought. To complain about Zhu.

"I'll eat a piece of bread first." Nagisa realized that it would take a while to grill the fish, and took out a bag of bread. "Xiaozhen, do you want to eat?"

"Haha, I won't." Makoto, who had been helping Rin with seasonings, watched Nagisa bite off a large piece of bread with shame.

"Why, don't people who grill fish have human rights?" Rin glanced at Nagisa who was eating bread from the corner of his eye.

"No, no, Rin-chan, if you want bread, I can feed it to you in a friendly way." Nagisa had finished eating a loaf of bread, and was tearing open the packaging bag of the second bread.

"Would you like Rin-chan?" Nagisa fed the bread to Rin's mouth. "It's strawberry flavored."

"Forget it, eat it yourself." Rin let the black line cover his forehead.

"The grilled fish is almost done, Makoto, you and Nagisa, let's eat first..." Rin greeted the two of them, "Hey, where did Makoto go?"

Rin looked along the coastline—that fellow Makoto was standing by the sea and shouting something to Haruka in the sea.

"Tsk, it's different for the savior." Rin looked at the remaining grilled fish in his hand that was originally intended for Makoto, and took a bite directly with resentment.

"It's delicious, Rin's craftsmanship has improved again..." Nagisa stuffed a mouthful of grilled fish and bread into his mouth, not forgetting to praise Rin for his hard work.

"Xiaoyao, the grilled fish is ready." Makoto stood by the sea and stretched out her hand smiling into the sea.

"I told you not to be younger..." Haruka suddenly swam up to Makoto from the shoreline and held his hand.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Makoto pulled Haruka ashore forcefully.The two walked together towards where Rin and Nagisa were.Rin looked at the figures of these two people, and then put on two grilled fish with iron rods and continued to grill.

"It smells so good." Haruka felt the aroma of grilled fish in the air intoxicatedly.

"Yes, as expected of Rin." Makoto agreed with a smile.

"You bastard, the grilled fish that was supposed to be left for you..." Rin looked at Makoto with dissatisfaction, "Now wait carefully."

"I'll grill." Looking at the two fish on the grill, Yao suddenly stretched out his hand and flipped it skillfully.

"Hey, you're not bad." Rin, who was eating grilled fish, looked at Haruka's technique and praised.

"Wow, Xiaoyao can also grill fish, it's great!" Nagisa's compliment followed.

"It's very simple." Haruka suddenly turned her head to look at Makoto.

"Ah, Haruka wants salt." Makoto immediately handed over the salt jar.

After a short while, Haruka turned his head away again—and then took the brush dipped in honey from Makoto.

"Hey, Makoto, can you read minds?" Rin wiped the corner of his mouth with one hand.

"Aha...not anymore."

"..." Rin stared at Makoto for a while, then turned her gaze away.

"Maybe this guy is not a normal person." After seeing the existence of the murloc for himself, Rin began to have all kinds of doubts.

"Rin, although I don't know what you're thinking right now, but..." Seeing Rin's unpredictable expression, Makoto tried helplessly to pull this friend out of his mind.

"I'm normal."

"Hmm..." Rin also found that his nerves were a little sensitive.

"Well, when we were on the road, the north side of the town seemed to be on fire. Zongjie hurried over when he saw it. The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, you all should pay attention to safety."

"Hey, is it on fire... By the way, there hasn't been a fire in the town for a while." As a firefighter, Makoto thought about it.

"I hope nothing happened..." Makoto frowned.

"The grilled fish is ready." Yao suddenly said at this moment.

"Ring..." At this moment, Makoto's cell phone rang suddenly.

"Hello," Makoto's pupils shrank when he saw the name displayed in the note, and he immediately picked up the phone.

"Is it Zhenqin? There are not enough people here. There are already three unexplained fires in the town. If you can come here, the address is..."

☆、Chapter 23

"Okay, I'll be there right away!" Makoto understood the seriousness of the situation, and immediately took out necessary items such as documents from his bag after he hung up the phone.

"Sorry, I'm leaving first. Haruka, I left the key in my backpack, can you go back by yourself?"

"......"

"Don't worry, I'm here." Rin looked at Makoto's serious face and nodded at him.

"Then, I wish... a happy barbecue." Makoto turned around and left quickly without further delay.

At this moment, Yao was holding two delicious grilled fish in his hand, and one of them was supposed to be Makoto's.

"......what happened?"

"Hey, Makoto left before eating the grilled fish?" Nagisa looked at Makoto's back, and then at Rin and Haruka.

"Well, we have to trust Xiaozhen." Nagisa took one of the grilled fish by surprise.

"I also try Xiaoyao's craft..."

"Hey, of course, but Nagisa, your goal is to grill fish..."

It has to be said that Nagisa's interruption successfully liberated the two of them from the inexplicably heavy atmosphere.

"Wait, whose cell phone is ringing?" Rin suddenly heard a cell phone ring.

"Ah, it's mine." Nagisa hurriedly took out the phone from the bag with one hand.

"Hey, it's Xiaobu..."

"Did you forget the additional training and temporary assessment this afternoon?"

On the other side of the phone, Coach Sasabe's voice came through the phone speaker, shaking Haruka and Rin beside him.

"Ahaha... There is such a thing." Seeing that something was wrong, Nagisa decisively hung up the phone.

"Xiao Lin, Xiaoyao," Zhu pointed to the two bags he brought, "This is the food that Lian and I bought, and I leave it to you, I will go first~"

"Hey, do you want to kill us both?" The veins on Rin's forehead began to bulge.

While running, Nagisa turned around and made a grimace, holding the half-eaten grilled fish in his hand, and then disappeared into the street.

"One by one..." Rin complained dissatisfied.

"Here you are." Haruka looked at Rin, and gave him half of the grilled fish in his hand.

"Hey, ah, thank you." Rin was a little puzzled at first, but he quickly took the grilled fish handed by Haruka and began to taste it.

"Well, it has about half the taste of the fish I grilled."

".......childish."

"Who are you talking about? If you don't believe me, I'll bake it for you again..."

"Okay." Haruka, who successfully exchanged half a grilled fish for coolie, tasted his own grilled fish contentedly.

"Well, it's delicious." Haruka recalled the week when he came among humans.

He met a lot of people, Makoto who is always smiling, Rin who has a fierce mouth but no malice, his younger sister Jiang who has dangerous eyes, Ren who takes things seriously, and Nagisa who is lively and edible. …

Although there are still many places I want to complain about, but is this the life of human beings......

Yao thought about it, and suddenly revealed a faint smile.

"Hey, did you laugh just now?" Rin who just turned his head to the side noticed the smile.

"No."

"Absolutely!"

"No."

"Don't make excuses." Rin smiled.

"......"

"Would you just sit idle while I'm grilling fish? Pass me the seasoning..."

"Crap."

"Hey, make sure I'm grilling fish."

"...Oh." Haruka put on a reluctant face, and handed the seasonings to Rin one by one.

……

The two, who were full, happily enjoyed the sun bathing in the early summer afternoon.

"The sky by the sea is so blue..." Rin sighed while lying on the beach.

"Yeah." Yao rarely echoed.

"I don't know what happened to Makoto and Sousuke..."

"They should be fine, but..." At some point, Haruka stood up from the beach, staring at the blue sky.

At this moment, a black object of indeterminate size suddenly fell from the sky.

"Be careful!" Haruka, who noticed it, quickly ran to Rin's side and pushed him to the ground.Due to the custom, the two rolled on the beach several times.

"Well, it hurts..."

"Um?!"

"......"

"Hey, you..." Rin's face turned red instantly.

"That's not the point, get up quickly." Yao reluctantly turned sideways to support the sand and stood up.

"But you just now..."

Haruka didn't pay attention to Rin's words, and his gaze went straight to the falling object just now.

Is it a...cage?

The sides are about 25 centimeters long, and the thing like a pet cage made of several intertwined wires is very conspicuous on the golden sand.

☆、Chapter 24

Rin finally recovered from the mutation just now, he stood up and looked at the cage.

"Is this the thing that suddenly fell from the sky just now?"

"Ah."

"That's why you jumped over inexplicably, fell to the ground with me, rolled around a few times, and put your lips on my face?"

"I'm a policeman! How could this kind of thing hurt me with my skills?"

Rin angrily patted his sand-stained clothes. "baffling."

"It was an accident." Haruka looked at the sky suspiciously.

"Just now, it was clearly 'the breath of those guys...'"

"What are you talking to yourself?" Rin stared at Haruka who was immersed in his own thoughts, and suddenly understood something from his words.What Zongsuke said before played back in his mind.

The fire and the mermaid that once appeared, the helping humans that Yao said, and his inexplicable actions at this moment...

A line gradually formed in Rin's mind.

"No, Sousuke might... be in danger!" At this moment, Rin forgot about Haruka who was standing beside him, and he quickly rushed to the front of his backpack, opened the zipper and rummaged for something.

"Hey, calm down!" Haruka wanted to stop Rin.

"Get out of the way!" Rin couldn't listen to Haruka's words at this moment.

"I said, calm down!" Haruka had no choice but to use his own ability.The azure blue light bloomed from his eyes.

"It doesn't make sense for you to rush over like this."

"Then you mean, you want me to stay here and wait for their news without doing anything?" Although Rin stopped his movements under Haruka's ability, he was still very emotional.

"Has no one told you that no one was seriously injured or killed in those accidents?"

Haruka's words hit Rin's heart directly.

"Then they shouldn't be in danger?"

"Normally, yes." Haruka's uncertain tone angered Rin.

He grabbed Haruka by the collar, "Speak clearly!"

"Let go, my fellow clan should have gone to help!"

Haruka flung Rin's hand away.

"The current situation is still unknown. If the group of guys who caused the fire still ignite the flames in other places, all the firefighters and policemen in this town must be at their wits' end?"

"Sorry, I was too excited." Rin figured out the point.

"So your task is equivalent to monitoring the whereabouts of those guys?"

"Well, I felt their breath just now, that's why..."

"Well, forget it. So what else can we do for them now?"

"Not yet, but there are so many things here, I'm afraid we need to deal with them."

Rin looked at the five schoolbags beside him, and couldn't help being silent.

"These unreliable guys!"

Rin threw the two schoolbags in his hands onto Makoto's sofa.

"I'm exhausted!" Then he turned over and sat on the other half of the empty sofa.

"Huh," Yao took off the two schoolbags with difficulty.

"And then, just wait like this?"

"...Wait, Makoto..." Haruka's complexion suddenly changed, and this was the first time Rin saw him so excited.

"What's wrong with Makoto?" Just as Rin finished speaking, Haruka rushed out the door.

"Hey, tell me something!" Rin looked at the slammed door depressedly.

"I don't know what to do if I go out directly. Why don't you call and ask." Rin thought about it seriously, and decided to hold back and try to contact Zongsuke and other police officers before making a decision.

☆、Chapter 25

"Hey, Sousuke, how's the situation?"

"Fortunately, the fire has stabilized and no one was injured. Is it over on your side?"

"Well, in the end it's just me and the murloc. Nagisa seems to be training, and Makoto seems to be rushing to put out the fire. Do you have any news about him?"

"I haven't heard from him here. Could it be that more than one place is on fire?"

"The phone call Makoto received said there were three places."

"what?"

"Besides, the half-murloc just now suddenly said that Makoto was in danger and left. I don't know what happened."

"I'll go back to the police station and contact the chief of the police force. Why don't you go there and wait for orders?"

"Okay, see you later."

Rin is a little worried about Makoto's safety, but since Haruka's half-murloc has passed away, it shouldn't be a big problem...

……

On the other side, Makoto, who hurried to follow the address, saw the members of his team.

"team leader!"

"Well, let's act after I change my clothes!"

Makoto quickly took off the spare fireman's uniform from the fire truck and put it on, and carried it on her back after checking the effect of the fire extinguisher.

"Let's go!" After putting on the mask, Makoto gestured quickly.

At this time, the fire engine on the side was already spraying water on the burning second floor, but there were still three people in the house who had not been rescued.

"You three, search the first floor." Makoto gestured quickly.The three newcomers looked at each other and acted quickly.

Then Makoto went up to the second floor with another firefighter.

"You left, I right."

Makoto headed towards the room on the right—this was the most severely burned room from the outside, and the room where the fire started first.

"Come and save us... No matter who it is..." As soon as she approached the open door, Makoto heard cries for help and the cries of children.

"Oops, there are two people here!" Makoto quickly analyzed the situation.

This room looks like a room from the outside, but judging from past experience, it will have a small suite. The outer room is almost completely lit up, so the two survivors should be in the small suite inside.

There is no time to hesitate.Makoto gritted her teeth, protected her head and rushed into the flames.

"Mom, I'm so scared." In the suite that came with the room, the little boy was crying and lying in his mother's arms.

"Don't be afraid, uncle firefighters will come to rescue us soon..." The woman looked at the bright red color leaking from the crack of the door, and hugged the child in her arms even tighter.

The mother and son were in the room observing the "pet" caught a few days ago - a stag beetle, which is huge compared to its kind, when the flames suddenly struck.

"Mom, I want to go out and play!" A four or five-year-old boy is just naughty and can't stay idle.

"Why, don't you want to watch Chongchong?"

"Chong Chong doesn't move in the house, it must want to go out to play."

"Haha, then mom will take you and Chongchong out to play for a while, okay?"

Just as the child was happily walking towards the door with the black cage containing the stag beetles, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Wow, what a big stag beetle!"

"Who?" The vigilant mother immediately asked.However, there was no response after that.And just when the two thought they heard it wrong, a cluster of flames suddenly rose from less than one meter away from the child.

"Wow..." The child cried and threw away the cage in his hand, turned around and threw himself into the arms of his mother - and the cage suddenly disappeared the moment the child turned around, but they had no time to think about it something happened.

The mother held the child and looked at the rapidly spreading flames in front of her, and immediately retreated into the suite and closed the door.

However, there is nothing in this small room to help them. The only source of water is a small water bottle for the child, which is less than one-third full of water and cannot soak a towel at all.And the child's constant crying also took away the mother's sanity.

"Help!"

The desperate mother screamed hoarsely while holding the child, and the heavy fire shadows cut off their hope.

The author has something to say: By the end of this chapter, I think everyone has already figured out what the water and fire in the title refer to. Let me reiterate that there is no abuse and no casualties_(:з」∠)_

☆、Chapter 26

"Open the door!" Makoto covered her mouth and nose with a wet towel with one hand, and knocked heavily on the closed door of the suite with the other hand.

"I'm a firefighter, and I'm here to rescue you!" As soon as the voice fell, the door opened a gap.

"Please save us, no, please save my child first!" The mother's eyes lit up the moment she saw Makoto, and she pushed the child in her arms towards Makoto.

"Please save him, please!"

Makoto looked at the child full of fear and panic, and understood the urgency of the matter, so he stretched out his hands to the little boy and held the child carefully in his arms.

"Quick, get out of here with me!"

"No, Mom..." The boy poked his head out of Makoto's arms and wept.

"Close the door, hold on! I will come back to save you!" Makoto looked firmly into her mother's eyes, "So, please hold on until I come back!"

"Okay...thank you." The mother took one last look at the child and closed the door again.

Makoto, on the other hand, held the child and carefully walked through the sea of ​​flames.Perhaps it was the blessing of Goddess of Luck that he didn't suffer any injuries when he crossed the flames.

As it got closer, Makoto looked at the gate that seemed to be close at hand, and showed a gratified smile. He lowered his head and looked at the child in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, I will save your mother too..."

"Kangdang——" Makoto couldn't finish her words.

What was supposed to be a bookshelf in this room fell to the back of the door under the burning of the flames, which happened to be where Makoto was.

Although Makoto had tried her best to leap forward instinctively to prevent the child in her arms from being affected, one of her right legs was still hit hard by the collapsing bookshelf, and she fell to the ground.

"Ah..." Makoto put her entire left arm under the boy's body at the last moment, leaving him barely injured.

"Big brother, are you okay?" The boy looked very scared and cried "Are you okay?"

"Don't worry." Although Makoto's right leg may have suffered a closed incomplete fracture, and his left arm has a certain degree of muscle abrasion, he still showed a warm smile to the child, and he fumbled with his right hand. Get out of the walkie-talkie "This is Makoto Tachibana, call..."

"Captain!" Before Makoto finished speaking, the members of the team who went up to the second floor to search and rescue with Makoto happened to arrive at the door of the room Makoto was in.

"Are you okay?" The team members immediately pushed aside the bookcase pushed by Zhenqin through the principle of borrowing force.

"I'm fine, you take this child out first!" Makoto said and tried to move her right foot—since the accident just caused only an incomplete fracture of the fibula in the calf, Makoto can still carry out strength training in a short time Not much exercise.

"There's another person in the room, I'm going to save her!"

"Captain!" The team members looked at the crying child and Makoto's figure that had disappeared into the sea of ​​flames, so they had to pick up the child and leave the small building.

"Are you okay?" Makoto knocked on the door again.

"Where's my child? Has he gone out?" The mother who opened the door immediately questioned Makoto, after all, he came back too fast.

"Don't worry, my team members have rescued him, come out with me quickly, ahem." At this moment, there was a lot of smoke in the room.

"Here is the towel, cover your mouth and nose, then bend down and follow me!" Makoto refolded her only wet towel and handed it to the woman.

"Quick! Cough..." He took another puff of smoke while speaking.

"Oh, good..." The child's mother immediately followed Zhenqin to leave.

"Come on, jump over!" Coming to the flame outside the apartment, Makoto helped the woman to help her cross the burning flame.

"Uh..." However, this action directly aggravated the injury on Makoto's right leg.

"You continue to go down, cough, there will be other firefighters to meet you!" Makoto shouted this sentence to the woman with difficulty and could no longer support her body—he had inhaled too much poisonous gas in his lungs, and The endless burning in the room also consumed the little oxygen, which made it more difficult for him to breathe.

Makoto knelt on one knee, resting her right hand on the ground.

"Hey, are you okay?" The woman saw something was wrong with Makoto. "Stretch out your hand! I'll pull you!"

Makoto looked at the woman's outstretched hand on the other side of the flame - that was probably his last hope of survival, so he also stretched out his hand, and then pushed the woman's hand away.

"Crack..." From just now, the wooden beam at the door had been on the verge of collapsing, but now, it finally couldn't bear the continuous burning of the flames, broke off and hit the kneeling floor. He stretched out his hand to push the woman's Makoto away.

"Quick... let's go..." After finishing the last two words, Makoto realized that he could no longer hear anything.

For Makoto, this moment is his last peace.

The call of the woman who was dragged away by the rushing firefighters, the shouts of the team members who went back and forth...all disappeared outside the raging fire.

The author has something to say: In the next chapter, there will be a little mermaid to rescue the orca comrades in the fire, please rest assured_(:з」∠)_

☆、Chapter 27

"It's so strange..." Makoto looked at the surrounding flames and laughed. "It should be a scorching flame, but why can't I feel the pain of being burned?"

The salty liquid in the throat welled up, covering the dry inner wall of the mouth.

"It seems to hurt... and it doesn't seem to hurt at all." Makoto relaxed her body, ready to face death.

If the ending that fate wrote for him has come to the curtain call, then at least he should face it calmly and with a smile.

Makoto, who has always been afraid of some ghost legends beyond the scope of science, was jokingly called a coward when she was a child, suddenly relieved at this moment.

I heard the elders say before that when a person is dying, he will see the most important people and things in his life...

Then, those people and things that brought him joy and pain, the sea that submerged everything...why didn't they come before his eyes?

"Makoto!"

It seems to be Haruka's voice... So he was the last person to appear at this moment... That's fine, but I'm sorry, Haruka.I promised to try the grilled fish you made by yourself...I promised to take you to experience human life...and Rin, Rei, Nagisa, Jiang, I haven't said goodbye to them yet. .....

"I'm sorry, I might have to... break my promise." Makoto looked at the flames in front of her and slowly closed her eyes.

"Makoto, are you an idiot?" However, a familiar voice kept ringing in my ears.

Makoto opened her eyes—the boundless blue came into view.The sound of sea water echoed in his ears, but at this moment there was no fear in his heart anymore.

"Yao, is that you?" Makoto stretched out her hand straight out, and as expected, she saw the figure of the half murloc.

And in his arms, there seems to be a cute, miniature killer whale?

"What..." Layers of water vapor flooded Zhenqin's body, blocking him from the attack of flames and smoke.Even though the water waves covered the nose and mouth, it didn't seem to affect breathing.

"Want to swim..." The killer whale broke away from Haruka's arms and swam to Makoto, shaking its fins at him.

"Is it a hallucination..." Even so, Makoto swam with the killer whale.

"It's been a long time, it seems like I haven't swum for a long time..."

"I still remember when I was young, Rin and I, and..." There was a gap in the dusty memory.

"Who else is here..." Makoto desperately recalled, as if the answer was very important to him, very important.

"It's you... Haruka." Makoto laughed in the water.

"Great." Haruka, who had been swimming in front of Makoto, suddenly turned her head, and it overlapped with a certain scene many years ago.

"Hey Makoto, wake up!"

"Eh? Ahem..."

"The ambulance is here!" The messy voice kept ringing in Makoto's ear.He opened his eyes in confusion, and then realized——

In front of him was Haruka who was shaking him in panic, and the members of the fire brigade were all around, and the family of three who came out with him and the members also looked at this side with grateful expressions.

"I'm still alive..." So Makoto smiled, "It's nice to be alive."

"Stupid, those fires don't have the ability to directly hurt people at all. You've put yourself in such a mess...if it wasn't for me..."

"Xiaoyao." Makoto looked at Haruka who was chattering outside in front of her, and handed him her hand.

"Don't make it smaller."

"I'm sorry, although I really want to try to stand up by myself, but it should be...... I can't do it."

Makoto sighed helplessly—although the feeling of gratitude for escaping from death overwhelmed the pain, after a while, the wounds left on the right leg, left arm and back all returned to normal intensity pain.

So Makoto, who had just been helped up by Haruka and a few people, fell down again in such an unpleasant way, and fell into Haruka's... arms, and then... in the presence of several other people. When it was too late to help, they fell to the ground suddenly together.

"Hey, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital together?"

"This guy... is dead!"

Haruka got up from the ground and complained dissatisfiedly. "Forget it, it's important." After watching the ambulance carrying Makoto disappear before his eyes, Haruka decided to solve the problems in several other places.

However, just as he was about to set off, two "uninvited guests" suddenly appeared in front of him.

"You are... Yumi?"

The author has something to say: Yumi is on stage

☆、Chapter 28

"Yu Mi, this guy is the guy you mentioned to me... Nanase? Really... so weak, he actually gave the power to humans." Before Yu Mi opened his mouth, Another person beside him spoke suddenly.

"...Your Excellency?"

"My name is Tono Hiyori, and I am Ikuya's friend and... guardian."

"Ikuya, before... I'm sorry..."

"Huh?" Hiyori interrupted Haruka again without waiting for Haruka to finish speaking.

"Yumi doesn't need your..."

"Hiyori, that's enough. This is my business." Yumi finally stopped Hiyori's words.

"Haruka, this time, the siren instructed me and Hiyori to assist you, and your condition doesn't look very good."

"I'm fine." Looking at Yu Mi, Haruka wanted to continue talking about the previous topic.

"I don't need to mention those things anymore. I don't care anymore."

After finishing speaking, Tohno Hiyori turned around and turned to Yumi, "There is one more thing, let's go and solve it quickly, and then arrest the culprit...."

"Okay." The two "persons" quickly left the place.

Yes, Yuya and Hiyori also belong to the existence of half fishmen.

As for why Haruka wanted to apologize to Yumi, this matter will not be discussed for the time being.

Let's talk about the police station, Rin who rushed to the police station finally joined up with Sousuke who returned to the police station.

"Hey, Sousuke, are you okay?" Rin threw a can of Coke at Sousuke.

"It's okay, thanks." Zongjie took the Coke with one hand, opened it, and took a big gulp into his mouth.

"However, the current situation is really not optimistic...Three fires broke out in the town at the same time today. Originally, the fire department only had three teams and equipment with independent combat capabilities, and other substitute members and some civilian units Doesn't count as official firefighter service at all."

"That's right, Makoto, who was originally on a rest, was also summoned. I don't know how he is doing now."

"Since the murlocs have already appeared, the problem shouldn't be too big."

"That guy Haruka, tsk..." Rin remembered the oolong incident at noon.

"What happened, why is your face a little red?"

"No, maybe the weather is too hot. Then we police can't just wait for the firefighters and murlocs to solve the problem?" Rin hastily changed the subject.

"Of course it's impossible. Some investigations are already underway. Although there was no direct connection between the three fire spots, the nearby monitoring has mobilized the police to observe." Although Zongsuke noticed Rin's behavior of changing the subject, he didn't mind I plan to delve into it.Now just these few inexplicable fires are annoying enough.

"Although there are no clear casualties yet, it's better to solve it quickly..." Rin also frowned. "If it was caused by some supernatural power, it must be killed here this time."

"Yeah." Zongsuke nodded firmly.

Then the two went to have dinner together and then went home to rest. After all, there was still a tough battle to fight.

the next day--

"What? Makoto is injured!" Knowing the situation, Rin immediately asked for leave from the police station and rushed to the hospital.

"You guy, you missed the grilled fish party that you proposed, and even went to the hospital, you..."

"I'm sorry, the patient needs a quiet rest now, please leave the ward first
