But God is sorry, I didn't mean to be joking at all, but to state a fact seriously.A certain lingering feeling of being spied on has been growing and spreading in my heart since I stepped into this dark corridor.
I stopped suddenly and turned my head to look behind me.
Xiaotong also stopped when she saw my movements, followed my line of sight and looked behind me, then looked at me suspiciously, and asked, "Senior sister, what's wrong?"
"Voice... Didn't you hear the voice?"
"what sound?"
"Small...faint...a bit like the sound of a baby crying."
Xiao Tong frowned, pricked up his ears to distinguish carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "I didn't hear anything, senior sister, you...are you trying to scare us as a joke?"
"No, I'm really not joking." I was inexplicably a little annoyed.
Xiaotong's expression also became serious, "Then let's be more careful."
We just walked carefully all the way to the door of Uncle Huashanyuan's room. During this period, nothing strange happened. I wondered if I was sensitive.
You Xiangfu went to the door and pretended to listen for a long time, then turned his head and lowered his voice to us: "There is no sound, my father should have fallen asleep."
"Then let me see if I can sense uncle's dream in a psychic dream. Don't expect too much. My ability is not effective at all times. Most of the time it was triggered passively. I rarely actively use it." it……"
"Have you not succeeded yet?" I couldn't help but whispered.
Xiao Tong shook his head, and gave me a "shh" gesture to signal me to be quiet.
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement, and I began to wonder if Uncle Huashanyuan hadn't fallen asleep at all.
Otherwise, why not just look at what uncle is doing now?So, I quietly put half of my body through the wall and carefully peeked into the room.
The moonlight shines into the room through the big window of the room. With this dim light, I can see that the big bed in this room is very flat, without a single wrinkle, let alone a living person, even a little No trace of being used.
I hurriedly scanned the other corners of the room, but immediately caught sight of Uncle Huashanyuan's back.
In this room where I can only see things through the moonlight without turning on a light, I saw that Uncle Huashanyuan was facing away from me, standing upright like a lifeless sculpture on the shelf with many decorations Before.
Then he raised his arms stiffly, clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and bowed slightly forward.
Is this... paying homage to the beckoning cat on the shelf?
I walked through the wall with my whole body, and slowly approached behind my uncle silently, wanting to take a closer look at what he was doing now.
However, when I was only one or two steps away from my uncle, a strong disgusting feeling suddenly surged in my heart, very similar to the feeling of being peeped by something in the corridor just now, It's just much more intense, how should I describe it... It's almost like the feeling of dozens of extremely thin needles piercing the skin.
I turned my head abruptly, looking in the direction of the source of the discomfort I felt.
So, I saw that in the corner of the room where the shadow is the most intense, dozens of round eyes the size of buttons were densely opened and peeking at me in a small area.
Aware of my peeping, these eyes also responded very quickly and receded like a tide, and they disappeared completely in a moment of my stupefaction, as if emphasizing to you that there is nothing here, but I am no matter what I will not take this as an illusion again!
This must be related to what Uncle Huashanyuan is doing now!I turned around, wanting to reconfirm Uncle Huashanyuan's movements, but I suddenly met a pair of eyes that didn't quite match the human face, seemed a bit too huge and were almost completely covered in black.
I saw Uncle Huashanyuan turned around at some point, staring at me with a pair of eyes with almost no whites, and on the shelf behind him, the beckoning cat with a slight smile lifted it up as usual His right paw looked at me with exactly the same eyes.
The expressions of my uncle and this lucky cat are exactly the same, which makes me almost sure that my uncle has been possessed by the lucky cat, but how do I get rid of the lucky cat from my uncle?I wanted to ask Xiaotong for his opinion at the first time.
Taking advantage of the moment when my uncle was still standing there in a daze without any movement, I quickly walked through the wall to the corridor outside, and shouted to Xiao Tong who was still closing his eyes and trying to channel the psychic: "Xiao Tong, don't worry anymore. It’s psychic! I’m almost certain that my uncle has been possessed by a lucky cat!”
Xiaotong opened her eyes as she said, but at this moment, I was suddenly startled.
I saw that the pair of eyes opened by Xiaotong turned out to be the same as the statues of Uncle Huashanyuan and the Lucky Cat in the same room, which were completely covered in black ink, like two dark bottomless pits. Very much like a cat face.
However, Xiaotong just blinked her eyes, and her eyes and face instantly returned to normal. She looked at me suspiciously and said, "Huh? What's wrong with Uncle?"
Her expression was very natural, as if she was telling me that what I saw just now was an illusion caused by too dark light, but I couldn't help but took a step back.
As if noticing my abnormality, Xiaotong asked again in puzzlement: "Sister...why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong? I didn't see anything just now. Uncle may not be dreaming..."
I was about to say something, but I heard a "click" from behind me. I turned my head and saw Uncle Huashanyuan's door was pulled open from the inside, and he leaned out half of his body from behind the door. With a warm expression on his face, he said in a gentle voice: "It's so late, what are you guys doing here? Aren't you going to sleep?"
His eyes focused on Youxiang who had a "bad" look on his face, and he seemed to suddenly realize: "I see, it's Youxiang who is playing her favorite night-time quest game with her friends again. Alas, she has been playing since she was a child." In this way, she always likes to sneak around in this big house in the middle of the night and play ghost games. How can there be those so-called ghost stories in reality, but she still enjoys it. She is still unstable at such an age, and it is difficult for you to accompany her She's gone crazy together. It's getting late, go back to your room and rest."
"Uncle, no... I'm sorry, we're going back to the room right away!" Xiaotong said, holding Youxiang's hand and preparing to go back.
"Wait a minute." I interrupted Xiaotong's movements.
Suspended in mid-air, I stared straight at Uncle Huashanyuan on the other side of the door. His eyes seemed to pass through me, and he was looking at Xiaotong and Youxiang behind me, but at this moment I knew that the truth it's not true.
"Uncle Hanayamain, is there something wrong with your expression? Hitomi is the only 'ordinary' guest who visited today. Why do you use the plural expression 'friends'? In other words...you can see me Yes, right? Why pretend you can't see me?"
Uncle Huashanyuan maintained a smile and looked behind me, as if he didn't hear me at all.
So I spread my hands, "Uncle, can you really not see me? Then I'm going to take that lucky cat in your room~ I like that thing~"
After that, I ignored Uncle Huashanyuan and wanted to enter his room again, but before I could step over the gate, an arm blocked me.
Turning around, Uncle Huashanyuan's dark eyes were already close at hand, and he said in a low voice, "You...you want to take away what belongs to me, take away my wealth?"
Motoji Hanayamain shook his head left and right like a rusty machine. At this moment, I saw that the skin on his cheeks and neck had cracked several small cracks abruptly and horribly. , They are all eyeballs.
"No, I will never allow this to happen."
He said this with a sharp voice that seemed to be mixed with strange noises.
Chapter 9 Catching the Cat
While carefully approaching Uncle's room, Xiaotong said to Youxiang and me in a small voice: "Hey, what's the plan? The beckoning cat is probably attached to Uncle, how to drive it out?"
[What's so difficult about this, let me tell you about my battle plan. 】I confidently sent a message to the two of them.
[The plan is, we rush into uncle's room, knock him out, and then transport him to the 99 grocery store!Since the lucky cat was sent out by that fat shop manager, he must have a way to take it back! 】
"...Senior sister, your plan is too simple and rude, isn't it?"
[Simple and rough plans are the most effective! 】
"Okay! Go, go!" Youxiang had already found a baseball bat from nowhere.
Xiaotong watched silently from the side as Youxiang crept up to the door of his uncle's room and raised his bat, ready to strike as soon as the guy inside came out.
This time, I will go through the wall first to observe the situation in the room.
As soon as I entered the room, I immediately realized that something was wrong.There was no one in the room, not even a trace of sleeping on the bed!
Almost at the same time, there was a scream from outside the door, it was Youxiang's voice.
I quickly went out through the wall again, only to see a black shadow flashing by in the corridor, Youxiang was slumped on the ground in a daze, and the baseball bat in her hand had been broken in two. It looks like it was cut off by something sharp.
【what happened?What was that just now! ] I asked quickly.
"Yes...a fast, wild, beast-like thing just attacked me!" Youxiang said tremblingly.
The inexplicable darkness in this corridor, even looking out the window of the corridor can only see darkness.Xiaotong fumbled for the light switch on the wall.After walking a few steps, I finally found it, but no matter how I flipped the switch up and down, the lights in the corridor didn't show any sign of turning on.
At this time, I heard a gust of wind coming from the back of my head, turned around suddenly, and met a pair of huge eyes like green will-o'-the-wisps floating in mid-air.
The owner of these eyes waved his right hand, no, it may be more appropriate to describe it as a right claw now, the right claw with sharp nails drew several arcs in mid-air, and my "hand" of telekinetic power was in the air. They collided violently, and there was a sound of gold and iron clashing.
The blow was blocked, and the black shadow drew a semicircle in the air with the force of the recoil, bounced flexibly to the wall, and then bounced again with the force, hiding into the darkness again.
"Hey, that just now...could it be..."
【Well, it's Uncle Huashanyuan.It's just that it seems to be half human and half cat...]
During the extremely fast interlacing just now, and then a little light, I clearly saw that Uncle Huashanyuan had the characteristics of a cat all over his body. The hair all over his body became longer, his nails became sharper, his nose protruded forward, and his eyes occupied The area of the face became larger, and cat ears even grew on the head!Hello!This thing grows on the head of a middle-aged man, but it's not cute at all!
Before I could utter this rant, I saw the black figure suddenly jumping out from another direction in silence, running on the ground and the wall with all four feet, and volleyed to the side. The little pupil rushed over!
In desperation, I grabbed a low table in the corridor where decorative vases were placed, and threw it towards the shadow with all my might.
The half-human, half-beast black shadow with its paws almost touching Xiaotong was pushed back by the low table for a certain distance. After stabilizing its figure, the shadow retreated again into the darkness.
I quickly sent word to them——
【quick!You go to the house first!lock the door! 】
If I were to fight this big cat alone, I would definitely be worthy.But that thing is extremely fast, and its night vision ability is obviously better than mine. I don't have the confidence to protect the safety of the two of them at all times.
Youxiang didn't have any thoughts of being brave at this time, she quickly opened the door of her uncle's room, walked in with her half-broken stick, then turned her head, and said to Xiao Tong: "Tong, come quickly! "
However, Xiaotong stood there blankly, without any intention of moving. She looked into the depths of the darkness and muttered to herself in a trance: "Okay, a lot of money, it's raining money, I, I... Are you going to be rich too?"
Then, she suddenly took two quick steps in that direction, and was instantly pinched by a claw protruding from the darkness.
"No...no one can take...take away my wealth...no one can..."
Motoji Hanayamain, whose entire face was about to turn into a cat's face, repeated this sentence repeatedly in an incoherent, non-human tone.
Damn it!Is this money hypnosis for Xiaotong's special attack? !
At such a distance... I dare not do anything, I am afraid that Xiao Tong's neck will be broken before I even get close.
I froze in place, and when Youxiang saw this scene, she immediately turned around and entered the room after seeing this scene, and then there was a loud "bang bang bang" from inside.
"Old money fan, let go of my friend, don't you want your lucky cat?!"
Youxiang yelled loudly, and slammed the half of the baseball bat in her hand on the glass of the display cabinet in the room, but the glass was like bulletproof glass, which looked inexplicably strong, and it was beaten by Youxiang desperately. There are only a few more cracks, which cannot be broken at all.
I wanted to remind Youxiang that the Lucky Cat inside was just an ordinary ceramic toy, not a real strange thing, it was probably a fake one put by my uncle, it would not have any threatening effect.
However, my uncle's reaction was much more intense than I imagined. I saw him throwing away the little pupil in his hand, and ran over with hands and feet, even ignoring my existence, and wanted to rush towards Youxiang .
So, when he started to jump up, he was firmly pressed to the ground by my thoughts on the side.
However, even though he was held down, he was still struggling desperately, his eyes fixed on the lucky cat in the display case.
Seeing Uncle's reaction like this, even I was puzzled. Could it be that there is a real "lucky cat that can attract wealth" in it?
No matter what, I hit my uncle on the back of the head directly with my memory. Even though my body is already very different from ordinary people at this moment, my uncle still lost consciousness directly without any tricks.
Probably because he heard the commotion and loud noise from upstairs, after a while, Mr. Fang He, the housekeeper, hurried upstairs and saw the weird scene in front of him, as well as the even weirder hairy figure Abnormal "cat person", his jaw is about to drop.
"Uncle Fang He, please don't disturb other people. Please prepare a car to take us to Shibuya, and we will start now." Youxiang said to the housekeeper after calming down.
Mr. Fang He also met people in the market at the last Tsukimi Festival. He seemed to recognize that the "cat man" was his master. He nodded without saying anything, and immediately went down to prepare the vehicle. .
Youxiang grabbed Xiao Tong who was still muttering "Money...the money is gone...", while I carefully used my thoughts to move the unconscious Uncle Huashanyuan, ready to send him to the car.However, after thinking about it, I turned around and looked at the beckoning cat in the display case. After breaking the glass violently, I took down the beckoning cat as well.
Chapter 10
Xiao Tong had already woken up on the road, blushing without saying a word, trying to divert his attention by studying the beckoning cat in his hand.
【Ah, money, a lot of money~ it's raining money~~】
I imitated what Xiaotong said before, and while Xiaotong blushed, there was also a trace of annoyance on his face.
"Senior sister, don't be so yin and yang by your side! The Mochizuki family and the Huashanyuan family are rich people, so it's not easy for you to fall into that illusion. How can you understand the feelings of the poor!"
[Tsk, the guy who owns a shrine at home and used to be on shows to channel others can’t say he’s short of money, I think you’re greedy for money! 】
As soon as I mentioned this, Xiaotong's resentment became heavier, she complained unhappily: "I... I am very poor! All the money I earned before was taken away by my dad, who said it was to build a shrine , I actually don’t know what to use it for!”
"Okay...don't quarrel." Youxiang looked surprisingly stable at this time, but it was immediately exposed in the next second. She stared at the beckoning cat and asked excitedly, "Have you researched anything? Is this lucky cat real?"
I spread my hands, "I don't see anything unusual."
However, Xiaotong's eyes shifted slightly, "Me neither, but... By the way, do we really want to return this? If I can take it back and study it for a few days..."
[Now you have to restore uncle to his original state, right?It's dangerous for him to be so aggressive, and I don't know how to get him back.Moreover, if you take Xiaotong back to study, after a while, you will grow cat ears, what should you do?Hey, wait a minute... Maybe that's not bad?Hehehe, the long pointed ears and long tail, and the fluffy pupils... that's amazing! 】
"... Forget it, it sounds a bit scary, I don't want to satisfy your strange hobby, senior."
[Tsk, what a pity. 】
When I came to the street where the 99 grocery store was located, I saw that there was still a lantern on in front of the grocery store.
I pushed the door open and said to Sifang Qiuzao in front of the counter, "It's strange, are you still open in the early hours of the morning? I had planned to wait until morning."
"In fact, many customers can only visit my small shop at night." Sifang store manager replied cheerfully, but when he saw me carrying the feline Uncle Huashanyuan into the store, he was surprised. He also showed a rare expression of surprise.
"This is... the Lucky Cat? Isn't your efficiency too high? It's only been a day, and you just brought one thing back?"
"Hmph, of course, who am I? In other words, you should confirm first, and confirm whether this is something you lent."
I pointed to the statue of the beckoning cat that Xiaotong was holding in his arms.
Sifang Qiuzao just glanced at the statue of the beckoning cat and the unconscious Uncle Huashanyuan, then nodded immediately and said, "That's right, this is exactly what I lent."
He stretched out his hand to take the lucky cat, but... but was stopped by my hand.
"Shop manager, since we have already brought the things, please take out the IOU that this person signed with you and destroy it first. You should have signed this kind of thing with him, right?"
"Hehe...that's of course." Sifang Qiuzao smiled a little bluntly, turned around and searched in a lot of boxes, and finally took out a piece of Japanese paper full of words.
