"I'm talking to you! You——" Takada Hiroki found that Higashino Yu was staring at his mother's room, so he walked over and pushed it, but he didn't respond. Turning his head, he found that the light in his mother's room had gone out at some point. "What happened? It's broken again? Forget it, go away. If you really just want to visit my mother, then wait until she wakes up before you come back." Takada Hiroki was a little annoyed, waved his hand, ordered Higashino Yu to leave, and was about to walk into the room. Suddenly, a fishy wind blew in his face. Before he could react, he felt dizzy and stood still uncontrollably. Then he was knocked to the ground, his body hit the floor with a dull sound, and severe pain came. Takada Hiroki was stunned at the time - falling down when a person is not prepared is much more painful than falling down by slipping normally. He rubbed his waist with a grin, turned his head and saw Higashino Yu standing behind him. This kid was in a strange state, with his right hand spread out flat, as if holding something, and his eyes were vigilantly looking at the interior of the room. At this time, the room was unusually dark, and Takada Hiroki could not see anything, but he did not suspect anything unusual.
The Japanese-style room without windows in the house was like this, and when there was no light, visibility was limited to the fingers of the hand. This kid is sick! Looking at the boy in front of him who said he wanted to repay his mother's kindness but behaved strangely, Takada Hiroki's anger rose in his heart. He got up in a somewhat embarrassed manner and waved his hand to scold. "Asshole! Get out of here!" Ono Masazō, who was watching from the side, shook his head, laughing at himself that he had become less courageous as he got older, and was actually frightened by a few words. This is just a stupid boy who knows nothing and only knows how to play tricks. He sorted out the words of advice that a master should have in his mind, laughed, walked up, and was about to speak. Huh! I saw a ball of dark blue flame suddenly rise from the palm of Dongye Yuping's open hand, slowly shrinking, and the flame as big as a human head was also compressed into a faint spark. Then he put his thumb on his middle finger and flicked it lightly. The spark drew a brilliant arc like a meteor, and finally hit the invisible darkness and burst into countless sparks. However, the sparks that should have dissipated quickly seemed to have touched something flammable, and the fire was poured with fuel, and it suddenly expanded into a huge, cold dark blue fireball. There was a crackling sound in the shadow, as if something was burning. "Mom!" What happened for a while was beyond Takada Hiroki's cognition, but he didn't have time to think about it. He only had his mother in his heart. He screamed and was about to rush into the sea of fire, but was pulled back by Ono Masao who was in doubt. "Calm down! That, that is not an ordinary fire, it only burns evil spirits." With the help of the light and fire, Takada Hiroki could see the monster in the room clearly. It was a spider as big as half a room, without a physical body, and half of its body had passed through the wall of the room, as if it was trying to escape. At this time, it struggled violently when it was burned by the fire, and kept making shrill inhuman wails.
The fireball filled the small Japanese-style room and lasted for dozens of seconds, gradually dimming as the monster became silent, and finally disappeared into thin air. The Japanese-style room returned to silence. Ono Masao glanced at Higashino Yu, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't say it, his expression was blank with some reminiscence. Takada Hiroki also had a dull look and was speechless. Click. Higashino Yu walked into the room and pressed the light switch, and the dim light came on immediately. The furnishings in the room remained the same and were not damaged at all. He knelt beside the old woman and bowed slightly: "I forgot to tell you that the wooden fish flower bibimbap you made was delicious. Thank you for your hospitality." After that, he ignored Takada Hiroki and Ono Masao who had not yet recovered, and got up and left. Until the footsteps disappeared, Takata Hiroki suddenly stood up, rolled and crawled into the house to check on his mother's condition. After finding that she was not hurt, he turned to look at Ono Masazo who was sitting in the corridor in a daze. "Ono priest?" Ono Masazo glanced at Takata Hiroki, showing a guilty look, tidied his clothes, and knelt on the floor. "I'm so sorry!" "I'm not good enough, and I almost made a big mistake. I will return the money to you. Takata-san, the shrine is busy, let me say goodbye." After he said this, he stood up, frowned, and walked out of the entrance while muttering something. "Blue fire, I seem to have heard it somewhere." But as soon as he left the entrance, his expression and demeanor immediately returned to the appearance of a shrine priest. The attendant trotted forward: "Prince Ono, are you going back to the shrine?" "Yes. By the way, leave the gift money that Takata-san gave you just now." "Ah?" "If I tell you to keep it, leave it. Why are you asking so many questions!" "Oh." Is there anyone who doesn't want money? The attendant was a little confused and put the thick envelope in the mailbox of Takata's house. "By the way, where did the young man surnamed Higashino go just now?" Ono Masazō looked around and asked. "Him." The attendant scratched his head and asked in confusion: "He has never come out since he went in. You are the first one to go out." Ono Masazō stopped immediately after hearing this and looked back at the house that was sinking into the dim light. Blue fire He seemed to remember something, and his wrinkled old face trembled.
Then this old body suddenly burst out with incredible power, picked up the hem of his clothes and started running wildly. The big sleeves fluttered, the clogs fluttered, the wind blew under his feet, and he disappeared in a flash. Only the followers with puzzled faces were left standing there, and the wind came with a strong shout. "Go!" "This bastard!" Takada Hiroki glanced at his mother on the sickbed and felt scared. He was about to chase after Ono Masazo, but was delighted to find that his mother had woken up slowly. "Mom!" Takada Kazuko looked at her son in a daze, with a confused look on her face, and was stunned for a long time. "Has anyone come here?" She seemed to have sensed something and asked in a hoarse voice. Takada Hiroki was stunned for a second and nodded quickly. "A handsome and tall high school student came here. He called himself Dongye Yu and said that he had received your kindness and came to visit you specially." "High school student, who is Dongye?" Takada Kazuko was a little confused. After a moment, she shook her head and said that she couldn't remember. "Oh, by the way, there is also the old dog Ono Masao! I will go to him to settle the score later!" Takada Hiroki was very angry when he talked about Ono Masao. He was fooled by this old man. If he hadn't happened to meet that young man to repay his kindness, his mother would have died. Takada Kazuko frowned slightly: "Hiroki, how can you be so rude to Ono Miyaji?" "You don't know, this is what happened." Takada Hiroichi told Takada Kazuko what happened. After listening to it, she sighed and laughed again. "But the ending is good, isn't it? You, don't make things too awkward. Ono is the chief priest of Yumikawa Shrine after all." Seeing that her son was about to say something, Takada Kazuko smiled and patted his hands. "Okay, I've been lying for so long, I want to go outside to get some fresh air, help me sit in the edo." Swish! With the help of her son, Takada Kazuko pushed open the glass door at the end of the corridor and sat down on the long corridor called edo near the courtyard with some effort. "You rest here, I'll tell my eldest brother the good news that you have recovered and ask him to come and see you." Takada Hiroki said with a smile. "Will it be too much trouble for Hongguang? He is also busy with work."
"No matter how busy he is, he has to make time. He didn't come before. Now that you are well, if he doesn't come again, it would be unfilial!" "If that's the case, I will go to his house and beat him up! Don't worry about it, I will arrange it." He ran to make a phone call without saying anything. Takada Kazuko had to shake her head helplessly, hammering her legs while looking at the courtyard. At this time, the sun had already set below the horizon, leaving only a little pale white afterglow lingering in the sky. Twilight gradually filled the world, a few stars twinkled in the dark blue background, and occasionally the sound of passing cars honking came from not far away, and behind him was the faint sound of Hongji's happy and excited voice. Probably sharing the news of his awakening with Hongguang, Hongji, this child, has been impatient since childhood. Takada Kazuko smiled at the corners of her mouth, her eyes had already scanned the courtyard, and then fixed on one place, her expression slightly stunned. On the stone wall of the courtyard, a big white fox squatted down without knowing when. Its tail was as big and fluffy as a cloud. It tilted its face, stared at her with lazy and distant phoenix eyes, and nodded slightly. Kazuko Takada recognized it at a glance as the little fox that came to beg for food that year, but it was much prettier and no longer in the messy appearance of being covered in mud. She was stunned for a moment, stood up, and several scarlet cherry blossoms fluttered and fell, blurring her eyes. In just a blink of an eye, the fox disappeared. "You are that kid, high school student." Kazuko Takada understood something, subconsciously turned her sight, and found that there were several bunches of plump and crystal mulberries on the side of the edge. "Hiroki, come quickly." Hiroki Takada hurried over when he heard the voice. Just when he was about to ask something, he saw his mother sitting on the edge, as if she had encountered something good, and smiled and handed over two bunches of mulberries. "What is this?" "It's a gift from that kid." Takada Kazuko smiled kindly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and sighed softly like an elder she hadn't seen for a long time. "She's already so beautiful."
