Next, it’s time to meet the head on the roof. I have to find a way to kill him. The head is scary, but that’s why he must die.
Chapter 36: [Back to the Past]
After repeatedly telling the cute girl not to leave the closet, Zhiyao closed the door, walked through the lounge and returned to the fireplace room on the first floor, and picked up a wooden stick that was more than three meters long under the broken stairs.
At first, he planned to find an escalator to climb directly to the roof and fight with the people. However, considering that his companions were all girls and there was a certain degree of danger on the roof, he found another way.
"I'll lure him over here later." Zhiyao said to Shenhong, and then instructed Gudu, "You should pay attention to your own personal safety first. The flying heads may be more flexible."
After giving the instructions, the three of them returned to the balcony, and Zhiyao began to knock on the protruding eaves with a wooden stick.
Surprisingly, nothing appeared.
He wondered, could it be that the head had gone somewhere else?
"It should still be there," Xiao Wuhui said, adding, "My intuition tells me so."
Xiao Wuhui had just finished speaking when suddenly, a deep red, high-decibel reminder sounded beside her.
"coming!"
Zhiyao looked in the direction of the sound and saw a human head with long hair appearing five meters in the air. With the back of its head facing this side, it seemed that it had not noticed his existence. Seeing this, Zhiyao gripped the wooden stick tightly and threw it at the head like a javelin, hitting it accurately.
After successfully attracting the target's attention, the three hid back in the lounge and saw a head staggering in after them.
Next.
"Close the door and beat the dog!" Zhiyao pulled out a dagger and gave orders.
Shenhong and Gudu received the order and closed the two doors leading to the outside respectively, and Zhiyao then closed the door towards the balcony.
"Hei Ze!" Seeing the head floating towards the ancient capital, Zhiyao loudly reminded his teammates to pay attention.
Gudu paid close attention to the movement of the head. When the head was about to reach him, he took a big step to the side to avoid it. When the head turned around in the air and chased him, he moved towards Zhiyao while keeping an eye on his back.
Gudu used himself as bait, and Shenhong, who had the same idea as him, followed the human head decisively. As the distance was shortened to about half a meter, Shenhong pressed the shutter, causing the floating human head to shake violently, as if it had been hit hard by some real object.
The head's attention shifted to Shenhong's side. Zhiyao stepped forward without saying a word and hit the head with the side of the dagger with all his strength.
"Boom!"
The head hit the wall of the lounge like a flying tennis ball, and then bounced to the ground. Seeing the head float up again, not even knee height, Zhiyao rushed up and swept it across, like playing table tennis, causing the head to bounce against the wall and the ground again.
You know what, it’s quite fun.
For a moment, Zhiyao was toying with the head, having a blast. Over time, Shenhong and Gudu relaxed and watched the show with great interest. If Xiao Wuhui hadn't strictly forbidden physical contact, Zhiyao would have wanted to try kicking it like a football.
"Sikong, stop playing." Xiao Wuhui lay on his back and advised him to finish quickly.
"This guy is really weak, hehe, I want to torture him for a while longer." Zhiyao laughed happily, and then thought of something, "How about I chisel off all its teeth and give them to the little girl in red and her friends as footballs?"
"Can you please not be so perverted?" Shenhong looked helpless and her scalp tingled.
Pushing aside Zhiyao who was having a lot of fun, Shenhong pressed the shutter button several times to put an end to the matter.
……
When they arrived at the courtyard, they saw a handbag under the cherry tree, which puzzled them.
First it was the mini safe, now it’s the handbag, and I wonder what will come next.
Shenhong was particularly indignant about this, because she felt like she was being led by the nose. She quickly walked to the handbag and reached out to take it.
Zhiyao held down her hand and poked it with the tip of the knife. The handbag neither released poisonous gas nor anything came out of it. Only then did he feel relieved and reached out his hand.
As a result, as soon as his fingertips touched the bag, a white light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, which was so bright that Zhiyao couldn't open his eyes. When the pain disappeared and his eyes slowly opened, he was completely stunned.
Before long, the dark night turned into a sunny day, and pink flowers bloomed on the branches of the almost withered cherry trees.
What's happening here?
Confused, Zhiyao looked around, but Shenhong and Gudu were nowhere to be seen. He called out to Xiao Wuhui, but no head popped out of his chest.
He wandered around the courtyard, and suddenly, the door on the left leading to the fish pond was opened, and a group of children ran out. Among them was Mikoto Sohkata, whom he had seen in the photo, a little girl in red clothes, and Kirie Kou following at the end of the group.
"Brother!" Seeing Zhiyao, the little girl in red immediately ran towards him, her steps so cheerful that it seemed like she was walking on colorful clouds.
Zhiyao looked at her with burning eyes until she grabbed the corner of her clothes.
"Hello, little sister."
"Hello brother, my name is Mikoto Souma." Mikoto also came over, raised her little head and introduced herself, and she didn't seem to be shy at all.
"Oh, oh, hello, Mikoto." As he spoke, his eyes moved to Xiao Wuhui at the end of the team and walked straight up to her. "So you are here, what's going on?"
For some reason, Xiao Wuhui just looked at him without saying anything.
After waiting for no reply, Zhiyao simply got to the point, "Tell me quickly, how can I get back?"
Xiao Wuhui still didn't say anything.
"Brother, are you lost?" said Mikoto Munakata.
"Hey?" Zhiyao rolled his eyes, "Oh, yes, brother is lost."
"Then I'll go call the adults for help." Mikoto ran towards the doll room.
Watching Mikoto's departing back, Zhiyao suddenly noticed a noisy sound in his ears. He rubbed his ears hard many times and shook his head wildly, but found that the sound did not disappear. He held his breath and listened carefully, and gradually he heard that it seemed like someone was calling Sikong.
At the same time, Xiao Wuhui also came in front of him, looking up at his face.
"What's the matter, honey?"
Xiao Wuhui tilted her head slightly.
Zhiyao squatted down and moved forward. Xiao Wuhui did not make any further moves. Zhiyao was really impatient and simply picked her up on the spot.
"I want a hug too." The little girl in red grabbed the corner of his clothes and jumped up and down.
"Okay, okay, come one by one."
At this time, Mikoto's voice came from the direction of the puppet room. Zhiyao turned around and saw a middle-aged woman in black clothes coming with her.
"you……"
For some reason, Zhiyao found that the middle-aged woman looked at her with an indescribable strangeness in her eyes.
"Brother, I've called mom here. If you have any difficulties, just tell her." Mikoto said.
Mother?
Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, looked at the middle-aged woman from head to toe several times, and then regained his composure.
Of course he knew who Munakata Mikoto's mother was, but he never expected to see her alive.
"Sir, may I ask..." Yae spoke first.
"Guest?" Zhiyao frowned, then nodded. "Oh, I'm a villager living nearby. I was invited by... um, Mr. Zongfang."
"Really? I'm so sorry I only just found out about Ryozo's guest." Yae bowed hastily and turned around. "Please follow me."
As he turned around, Yae turned his head back and his eyelids twitched imperceptibly.
Passing through the secret door of the puppet room, under the guidance of Yae, the two came to the hearth room. Unlike the hearth room in the Himuro residence that had been abandoned for many days in the future, the hearth room here looked clean and tidy, with all kinds of objects arranged in an orderly manner.
She cleaned the place so cleanly, she is truly a virtuous wife. In her heart, Zhiyao thought of another girl named Kurosawa who lived far away in Kaishin Village.
I have the impression that Sae and Yae look quite similar. Does that mean Sae will look like this when she grows up?
While thinking, he walked over to the low table and sat down, then saw Yae bring a tray with a cup of tea and a plate of snacks.
After placing the refreshments in front of the guests one by one, Yae straightened his back and sat upright on a mat two meters away.
Both her sitting posture and hospitality were perfect. Zhiyao couldn't help but admire Yaye's cultivation, thinking that she was simply a model of a traditional Japanese housewife.
In Neon, children are not allowed to disturb adults when they are meeting with guests, so Mikoto could only hide outside the door and peek, while Kirie stayed with Zhiyao because he was held by her the whole time.
Since no one spoke, the fireside room was very quiet for a long time. During this time, Zhiyao noticed that Yae was always stealing glances at her, and she couldn't help it.
"What's wrong, Kuro...Mrs. Munakata?"
"Hmm?" Yae opened her lips slightly, looking hesitant.
"If you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to be secretive." Zhiyao changed her tone to a slightly commanding one.
"Excuse me, sir, what you are holding in your arms is..."
She seemed to be looking at him repeatedly for this very reason. In an instant, Zhiyao suddenly realized, "She, she is Xiao Wuhui, who is with me." After Zhiyao finished speaking, he gently pressed Xiao Wuhui's head.
"You... could it be that..."
"I can see it." Zhiyao understood what she meant immediately and replied, "You can see it too, right? Hehe."
Yae nodded dully, and then the scene fell silent again.
It was a rare opportunity to meet Kurosawa Yae. In fact, Zhiyao really wanted to talk to her, but she didn't speak because of the age difference and the fact that she couldn't find a suitable topic for the time being.
I can't talk to people like Kamikami and Saeki because it will bring back bad memories.
Just like that, the two people present were both silent. After an unknown amount of time, Yae's head suddenly turned somewhere, and his brows visibly frowned.
Noticing something strange, Zhiyao also looked over.
"what happened?"
"No, please wait here for a moment."
After saying this, Yae left the fireside room. Judging from the direction he left, Zhiyao guessed that he was returning to the courtyard.
Who would have thought that after ten minutes, Yae still hadn't come back. Zhiyao felt something was wrong and was about to go to the courtyard to check, when suddenly, Mikoto rushed into the fireside room with a crying voice.
"Mom... Mom is in trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Zhiyao asked Mikoto to lead the way. Arriving in the atrium, they found Yae collapsed, surrounded by a group of children and an antique camera. Without time to think about what was going on, Zhiyao lifted Yae up horizontally and, with Mikoto leading the way, headed to the second floor. They placed him in the lounge and then opened the door to the moon-viewing platform to let in fresh air.
Mikoto brought a basin of warm water and a towel. Zhiyao soaked the towel and wrung it dry, then wiped Yae's face and neck. After a few times, she folded the towel into a square and covered Yae's forehead. She sat by the balcony door, staring into the distance in a daze.
Chapter 37: [Mongakata Eighth Level]
Time flies like an arrow. I don’t know how long it has passed. With the sound of a light scolding, my thoughts that had wandered into the sky were brought back.
"Um, what's wrong with me..." Yae opened her eyes. Her pale face looked bloodless and she looked extremely weak. She found Zhiyao beside her and with the towel on her forehead, she forced herself to sit up. "I'm so sorry for making a fool of myself."
Zhiyao quickly went over to support Yae, "No, no, no, there's no need to do this." After thinking it over, she simply pushed Yae back to the ground, "You need to rest more, don't push yourself."
"No, we can't neglect our guests." Yae struggled to get ready.
"You are neglecting me by getting up!" Zhiyao changed her tone to one that did not allow for refusal and put the towel back on Yae's forehead.
The two looked at each other, and seeing Zhiyao's increasingly unhappy expression, Yazhong nodded weakly.
"Go ahead and sleep if you want. It's okay. Mikoto and I will be here."
Hearing Mikoto, Yae looked around and sighed.
"Mom, it was my brother who carried you up here." Mikoto moved to Yae's side and held Yae's hand tightly.
Hearing the sound, Yae raised his hand with difficulty and lifted Mikoto's bangs, then turned to Zhiyao.
"I really don't know...how to thank you..."
"No need, no need. It's just a small favor." Zhiyao yawned as she suddenly felt sleepy. Figuring she couldn't just sleep here, she started to talk about something else. "Mrs. Zongfang, why did you faint there?"
“My health has never been very good.”
There must be other reasons, Zhiyao thought, and asked without hesitation, "Are you really not attacked by evil spirits? I see there is a ghost-eliminating camera next to you."
After hearing these words, Yae was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
"Guest, you..."
"Don't call me guest. My name is Sikong Zhiyao. You can call me Sikong."
"Sikong, do you know that camera is..." Yae was surprised from the bottom of his heart, but when he thought that this person was Liang Zang's guest, he was not so surprised anymore.
"Of course I know, hehe." Zhiyao laughed heartily, "You shouldn't have gone alone, you should have called me."
Yae fell silent for a long time. "There's something indescribably strange about this place. At first, Ryozo brought me here to find a quiet place where I could recuperate while I was sick. Then one day, Mikoto found that camera from somewhere, and I used it to take pictures everywhere. I saw many things that I couldn't see without a camera, including the child you're holding. But later, I gradually realized that I could see things even without a camera."
"Oh, no wonder you looked at me with strange eyes before, hahaha." Zhiyao laughed dryly and scratched his hair.
