Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 263 Mr. Kang

Blackstone Mansion.

The cherry blossom trees are washed down by the rain, the bluestone floor gathers water, and the rain falls on the tiles on the eaves. The crisp sound is like playing a classical musical instrument.

Xiaoniaoyou and Tushou sat in the middle of the corridor, looking up at the raindrops.

"Finally found you." Kimura Hiroshi hurried over, wrapped a thick scarf around the two cat owners, wrapped them into a ball and hugged them.

"It's really rare to have such a heavy rain in spring." He carried the cat owner into the house. The house was warm and comfortable, the floor was swept clean, and two magnificent cat climbing frames were erected in the center of the house.

The cat climbing frame is composed of several discs of different heights. The discs are fixed on a pillar, with fur balls and simulated plush mice hanging on them, and soft cotton cushions are placed on them.

On weekdays, the two little guys would curl up into a cat cake, take a nap on a certain disc, jump up and down on it when they woke up, and scratch the fur ball with their paws, but this is not their nest.

There was an old cardboard box by the fireplace, and the cardboard box sat by the fireplace with cotton pads inside.

On the first day they came to the Black Stone Mansion, the two siblings picked this place and dragged cardboard boxes from the storage room to build a nest for themselves.

This simple cardboard box does not seem to be suitable for the two of them. Hiroshi Kimura tried to buy a better cattery for them, but it was useless. They only live in their own nest at night, and only go to other places when they take a nap. place.

Fortunately, they are not picky about toys, they play with all kinds of toys, and their favorite toy is the cat scratching post, which is full of cat scratching posts on the floor.

Cat scratching boards are actually toys made of cardboard. Like straw ropes, cats will grind their claws on it. They enjoy the process of sharpening their claws very much. If they are not provided with scratching boards, they will mess up on the sofa or cabinet Scratching, in order to prevent the precious furniture of the Black Stone Mansion from being damaged, Kimura Hiroshi put cat scratching boards in many places, and tied straw ropes to the table legs for the entertainment of the two.

Hiroshi Kimura held the bulging meatball and wiped the water from its fur with a towel.

He will only bathe the cat owner once a month.

This is not because he is lazy, cats cannot be bathed frequently, this will wash the oil off their fur, the hair will become dry and brittle, and they are prone to skin diseases.

"It's been 23 days since the last bath." Hiroshi Kimura murmured, "Although it's a bit early, you still have to clean your hair."

The bodies of Tushou and Xiaoniaoyou were more or less soaked by the rain, and the younger brother's paws were even stained with mud, and the meat ball left a black paw print on Kimura Hiroshi's palm.

He closed the door and asked the maid to bring a bucket of hot water.

The next job is a technical one. Both Tushou and Xiaoniaoyou don’t like to take a bath. The younger brother Tushou is fine. He is relatively slow. My sister, the little bird swim, screams loudly when it touches the water.

If you want them to enter the water with peace of mind, you must first massage them, and when they relax and close their eyes, you can tentatively throw them into the water.

Whether they can take a bath safely depends on their mood that day. When they are in a good mood, it will end smoothly. When they are in a bad mood, they have to run after them all over the room.

Today, the two cat owners seem to be in a good mood. Even the elder sister didn’t react when she entered the water. She obediently let Kimura Hiroshi bathe them. The whole process was kept quiet. It’s rare to see such a lady while taking a bath. .

"It would be great if I could bathe you as easily as this time every time." Kimura Hiroshi couldn't help sighing.

He rinsed off the foam on the cat owner's hair with clean water, then took them to the dryer, and dried the water with hot air.

Xiaoniaoyou and Tushou were radiant, and a scent of sweet-scented osmanthus wafted into their noses.

The pet shower gel that Hiroshi Kimura uses is sweet-scented osmanthus.

"Okay, the wash is over." Hiroshi Kimura patted Tushou's buttocks, "You can go crazy again, but you can't leave the room until the rain stops, you know?"

I don't know if Tushou and Xiaoniaoyou can understand human speech. Over the years, he is used to speaking like this.

It is said that cats are very spiritual animals, they can understand human language, expressions and various gestures, and they can also communicate with spirits.

For example, folklore black cats are bad omens, if you see them, it means that you will be unlucky recently.

This is metaphysics and has no scientific basis, but some people, especially the elderly, insist that black cats are bad. Once they see black cats, they will become very careful and eat slowly. Kimura Hiroshi That's what my grandfather taught me.

When he was young, he and his grandfather went to the beach to catch fish. On the way back, he passed a statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. A black cat squinted and slept next to the statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. He was about to leave with a fish basket on his back. In the past, the black cat suddenly stood up and barked sharply towards him.

He was startled and fell down. Grandpa hurriedly protected him and waved the harpoon in his hand vigorously, scaring the black cat away.

For a whole week after that, he was locked at home by his grandfather and was not allowed to go out.

He didn't understand at the time, but he had to listen to what his grandfather said. It wasn't until he regained his freedom and came to the village that he realized that last week, five children from the same village met to swim in the river. Two of them drowned, and there were more children by the river. Two statues of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Each Ksitigarbha statue belongs to a child who died young, as the Japanese believe that Jizo is the patron saint of children who died young, soothing their hearts as they cross the Sanzu River to the next world.

Kimura Hiroshi didn't know if it was a coincidence or what. He knew the two children who drowned, Hatta Ken, 7 years old, and Niwata Ichiro, 8 years old.

If he hadn't been locked up, he might have gone swimming in the river with him.

Grandpa thought that the black cat would bring bad luck, and the drowned child was the bad luck brought by the black cat, but Kimura Hiroshi didn't think so, he thought the black cat was here to warn.

Thinking about it from another angle, maybe it is bad luck that attracts black cats, not black cats that attract bad luck.

This group of black cats came to you to remind you that you must be careful in the next period of time, because you are going to be unlucky.

Hiroshi Kimura felt that the black cats were misunderstood, so he didn't respect the cats like his grandfather did. When he went to study in Germany, in his free time, he would go to the benches on the campus to feed stray cats.

He has always maintained a good impression of this small animal.

He sensed something strange.

Even after taking a bath, Tomoru and Kotori always surrounded him, and when he walked to the window, he would still stare out of the window, which is the direction of Sagami Bay.

Kimura Hiroshi felt a little uneasy, the behavior of the siblings was really abnormal.

He checked the tableware, which was still full of cat food. This was the first time in nine years that the siblings were around him outside of meal times.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Kimura, Mr. Kang is looking for you." The maid said so.

Hiroshi Kimura went to open the door. Mr. Kang was a young man who looked like he was in elementary school. Hiroshi Kimura didn't know Mr. Kang's real name. He seldom showed up and spent most of his time in the kitchen, listening to the news from the mansion. The chef said that Mr. Kang is a very talented little chef, and he will definitely shine on the world stage in the future.

"Hello." Mr. Kang bowed very politely. Mr. Kang's tutor was very good, and he would not cry like other bear children. When Kimura Hiroshi talked with him, he sometimes felt like he was talking to an adult.

But you can really feel that he is a child, and you often hear some weird words from his mouth.

When he pressed the remote control panel of the air conditioner, he said: "The air conditioner consists of two boxes. If you put the two boxes in one place and press the cooling air, will it get hotter or colder?"

When he used a microwave oven, he said: "There is no fire, but it can be heated. The technology is really incredible."

Or when he was watching TV, he would watch "Hell's Kitchen" in the lobby with Miss Su Enxi every afternoon, and he would say, "How did the people on the TV get in?"

Miss Su Enxi would give him a blank look, "How many times have I told you that there is no one on TV, this is recorded."

Mr. Kang is always very curious about electronic products, but he doesn't seem to understand how electronic products work.

This is normal. Children who have just come into this world always need a process to learn.

Hiroshi Kimura couldn't read the clock when he was a child. For a long time, the hour hand pointed at the middle of six and seven. He didn't know whether it was six or seven o'clock. Adults could tell it was six o'clock just by looking at it, but never People told him why, and it wasn't until he met enough times that he gradually accepted the fact that the middle of six and seven is six o'clock.

"What's the matter? Mr. Kang." Kimura Hiroshi did not neglect Mr. Kang just because he was a junior. As a qualified housekeeper, he must maintain his demeanor towards everyone.

"It's raining heavily, Mr. Kimura." Mr. Kang pointed to the outside of the corridor, and the heavy rain fell, hitting the bluestone boards like firecrackers, "Can you hold an umbrella for me?"

"Umbrella?" Hiroshi Kimura was taken aback, "It's raining so hard, are you going out?"

"Just take me to a place where I can see the sea. It's best to hurry up, Mr. Kimura, this is a very important matter." Mr. Kang said seriously.

"I understand." Kimura Hiroshi nodded, and took out a big black umbrella from the house.

He didn't ask the reason. Children always have all kinds of whimsical ideas in their heads, and maybe they suddenly want to look at the sea in the rainstorm.

The black umbrella was opened, and a gap appeared in the rain curtain. Hiroshi Kimura held an umbrella for Mr. Kang. The two walked on the bluestone slab together, and the cherry blossoms and water flowed by their feet together.

"Did you hear that?" Mr. Kang asked suddenly.

"Yes, the rain is loud." Hiroshi Kimura replied.

"I'm not talking about the sound of rain." Mr. Kang pointed in the direction of Sagami Bay, "Did you hear the sound coming from there?"

Kimura Hiroshi didn't know what Mr. Kang was talking about, his phone rang suddenly, "Sorry, Mr. Kang, please allow me to answer the call."

"Okay." Mr. Kang stood on the spot and waited obediently.

Hiroshi Kimura's expression became serious, and after hanging up the phone, he said, "It's a call from the Coast Guard. The tsunami is coming, but they said it won't affect the Black Stone Mansion."

When the tide comes, it will be very spectacular. No wonder Mr. Kang wants to go to see the sea. This kind of opportunity may not come once every ten years.

He couldn't help but feel that Mr. Kang was a bit mysterious. In front of this little gentleman, he sometimes had a feeling of inexplicability: "When you say you heard it, do you mean that you heard the sound of the tsunami?"

"No, it's not a tsunami." Mr. Kang shook his head, "Listen carefully, they are hiding under the water surface and they are coming soon."

"they?"

"Please take me to a place where I can see the sea first."

"Okay, okay."

Hiroshi Kimura was delayed in answering the phone for a few minutes, so he couldn't help speeding up his pace. If he slowed down, he wouldn't be able to see the tide.

They came to the hot spring pool, which faces the sea and is a good auditorium.

Under the high cliff, there is the turbulent Sagami Bay. After a while, Miss Su Enxi and Miss Jutoku Mai came over. They shared an umbrella. Miss Mai held a black box in her hand and wore a Wear heavy insulating gloves.

A thin silver-white line appeared at the junction of the sky and the sea. It looked like a thin layer of silver was plated on the sea surface, but it was actually a big tide that took over the sky, and the tide was holding billowing white waves.

The huge waves smashed against the black wall, and the raindrops splashed like arrows. Hiroshi Kimura always covered Mr. Kang's head with an umbrella. The black umbrella was airtight, and not a drop of rain fell in.

"Did you hear them? Their cries?" Mr. Kang said again.

Hiroshi Kimura finally heard it, it was the cry of a baby, tens of thousands, the sound of tides and cries resounding on the sea, the cry was heartbreaking, like the soul of a drowning baby crying.

"Can you handle it?" Su Enxi looked down at the black cliff, "If not, I have to use another plan."

"Don't worry, I will stop them." Mr. Kang took a step forward and walked out of the range covered by the umbrella.

Hiroshi Kimura wanted to follow up and use an umbrella to block the rain, but to his surprise, Mr. Kang stood alone in the rain curtain, and the rain seemed to avoid him, forming a vacuum circle.

The childish eyes were burning with noble gold: "Thank you for bringing me here, Mr. Kimura, I hope you can keep what happened today a secret, this is a secret between us."

Kimura Hiroshi's pupils suddenly dilated, and the snake-like lightning hit the sea surface, illuminating the dense shadows in the tide.

Their long tails are tangled together, the scales on the surface of their bodies glow with a metallic blue light, but the skin on their faces is withered black, their baby-like cries are like ghosts in hell singing an elegy, and Kimura Hiroshi trembles violently, Could barely hold the umbrella handle.

But in the next instant, a dazzling light illuminated the world.

It was a black ray, a black sun!
Ten rounds of black suns occupy the sky, like ten golden crows flying in mythology, and the corona of extreme feathers spreads from the edge of the black sun.

Kimura Hiroshi suddenly understood that he sometimes felt inexplicable around Mr. Kang, and this feeling became stronger at this moment.

The black sun fell towards the waves of the sea, like a black hole that swallowed everything, and the long-tailed monster was swept and sucked into it. Ten eddies appeared on the sea surface, and the crying disappeared, only the waves slapping the cliff stones and spinning quietly of vortex.

The golden light in Mr. Kang's eyes dissipated, he fell back, and Miss Su Enxi supported his shoulders to catch him.

"Take him to the bedroom to rest, he is exhausted, let him have a good sleep." Su Enxi said.

"Yes, Miss Enxi." Hiroshi Kimura said respectfully.

"After seeing all this with your own eyes, you are now a member of our team. Don't forget your agreement with him." Su Enxi looked at the sea.

"Of order." Hiroshi Kimura couldn't help but use the honorific title.

He bowed his head, bowing with the most respectful respect.
