Slimes also want to be evil gods

Chapter 13 Inside the coffee shop

"Where is this place?!"

In a certain coffee shop in the commercial street, the teenager who had escaped from the group of cult students for more than half an hour could not understand where he was at all. The reason was very simple. It was clearly written on the calendar of the coffee shop. Today's date: July 2012, 7.

This is not some cheap prank, at least so far the young man can't see any pranks at all, this is reality, the real reality.

"Sir, your cappuccino."

"...May I ask a few questions?"

When the waiter brought the coffee, the boy stopped the waiter, and at the same time put a thousand-yuan banknote on the table, which was very obvious.

"... Just ask, I like helping others the most."

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and quickly glanced at the bar. After realizing that no one was paying attention to him, he quietly took away the banknotes on the table, and then looked at the boy's face with a smile.

"Seven days later, on July 2012, 7, is there any activity around here?"

"Seven days later... Well, as far as I know, there doesn't seem to be any activities, but the temple fair for the Obon Festival three days later is said to be very grand, and there is no news other than that. I am really sorry."

Because of the money, the waiter thought hard, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of what happened that day, so he could only answer like this, but even if it made no difference whether he said it or not, the waiter didn't take it seriously. The meaning of returning the money was just quietly waiting for the boy's response.

In fact, this answer itself has already explained many things, and it has already allowed the young man to confirm many things.

First, whatever the reason, he is indeed on July 2012, 7.

The previous "savior" mentioned that seven days later was July 2012, 7. He had already felt the anomaly. He left the underground waterway and came to the surface. He paid attention to all the things related to the date. It was July 20, 2012, or at least everything here indicates so.

Asking the waiter can only be said to be the final confirmation, to confirm that all this is true and not a scam. After all, there is also the kind of event where the whole city participates in going back to the past and pretending that the present is the past, although he himself has not participated in it. But I did hear that one city did hold it in the past.

The problem is that the situation at that time was the celebration of the city's centennial, and almost all the surrounding residents had been notified in advance, and the advertising leaflets alone had been distributed for more than a month.Even so, there are very few people who really participated in this event and brought themselves into the mentality of residents a hundred years ago. Most of them just regarded it as a relatively large-scale celebration.

Although this is indeed the case, but the theme of the activity is there, and engagement is also a very important factor.

However, this kind of large-scale event that has been prepared for a long time is done like that, and this kind of ordinary town that can't feel the atmosphere of the event is even more impossible.

What's more, the main purpose of their activities is to reproduce the life of residents a hundred years ago, and it doesn't make any sense for this city to go back to 2012.

Based on the above, the only conclusion the boy can draw is that this is indeed July 2012, 7, and he came to this era suddenly because of an unknown origin.

"Then what happened to the nearby school, any trivial matter is fine."

The most important question couldn't be asked from the waiter, so the boy asked the school instead. Anyway, so many students wearing such decent robes gathered in the sewer should be more or less alerted by the residents.

If the waiter answered that there was nothing abnormal, either the students were hiding well, or there was something wrong with this small town. He even had to seriously think about how he could escape if the city was full of cultists.

"School? Are you going to ask... about that?"

"What does that matter mean?"

Hearing such an obvious hint, the boy who hadn't expressed any hope hurriedly asked.

"Well... I've only heard about this. I don't know if it's true or not. It's just a rumor recently that someone from a nearby school committed suicide by jumping off a building."

Probably to prevent the boy from taking back the banknote, the waiter said mysteriously.

"Is this a problem?"

However, the teenager who heard about it didn't have much interest in it.

First of all, the suicide of a student is really not a big deal these days, at least not comparable to those guys who are like cultists. Moreover, it is news that a coffee shop waiter can know, no matter how you think about it Don't be mysterious, at least not as enigmatic as the waiter is acting at the moment.

"Cut, cut, cut... It is true that many people know that a student committed suicide by jumping off a building recently, but I can guarantee that not many people know this."

While speaking, the waiter took out the mobile phone from his pocket, lifted the cover of the mobile phone (he used a flip phone), opened a certain video inside, clicked to play, and turned the mobile phone towards the boy.

"This is?"

"This is my exclusive information."

Facing the boy's question, the waiter did not answer, but motioned the boy to watch the video on the phone.

This is a video file of arguing on the rooftop. In the screen, three girls can be seen arguing very fiercely on the rooftop. Judging from the movement of the screen, it seems that one of the girls recorded this video.

The mobile phone was supposed to be held by one of them at first, but after the quarrel, the mobile phone fell to the ground, but the place where it fell happened to be aimed at those girls, and the camera function did not stop, clearly recording everything that happened.

In the picture, one of the black-haired girls has been arguing with the other two girls. As the level of the quarrel increases, the quarrel gradually turns into physical movements. Finally, the black-haired girl drags the other two girls, with a kind of very happy feeling. His smiling face fell towards the outside of the rooftop.

Of course, it was limited to the black-haired girl, and the two dragged down by her were terrified.

However, because the shooting equipment was not very good, their conversation sounded very vague, and the only thing that could be recognized was a few particularly key words that they shouted out.

For example, the black-haired girl kept shouting about the sky, gods, etc., while the remaining two girls kept shouting no, couldn't do it, and gave up.

The video is only a short tens of seconds in total, but a lot of information has been revealed in this short time.

Chapter 14 The Forgotten Name

"Where did that brat go?"

Not far from a burning police car, the bartender at the previous bar was watching the surrounding situation from afar.

"There were only two police officers in the car, but it looked completely hopeless."

Beside the bartender, a man with orange mohawk hair and 80s punk style clothing observed for a while, then whispered to the bartender.

"Assaulting the police openly, that 'brain monster' is too dangerous, I really don't want to participate in this kind of thing...I have already warned him about that dead brat, yet he dared to come here."

"Mr. Hasegawa, are you sure that kid really came here?"

While the bartender, whose real surname was Hasegawa, was muttering in a low voice, a bald man with a bald head who could reflect other people's reflections behind them looked around and asked.

"He didn't come? Strange, his tone at the end, no matter how you think about it, he will come..."

Hearing the bald man's question, Hasegawa immediately realized that the guy he was looking for hadn't come at all. He knew that the bald man was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense. When you have doubts, you are basically convinced.

In other words, Hasegawa called someone and rushed to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible, but the target he actually wanted to find for rescue never came.

"I have acted with that brat a few times before, and I really don't think that brat is the kind of guy who will give up casually."

Mohawk agreed with Hasegawa's bartender's words. According to his residual impression of the past few joint actions, he didn't think that the other party was the kind of person who would run away under such circumstances.

"That is to say... was attacked by that 'brain monster' on the way forward?"

"...It is unlikely. Although he is indeed a bit reckless, he is not an idiot. If he is really attacked, he will definitely make a lot of noise to remind us. After all, it is easy to do with his ability. .”

"I've had a question since just now......"

While the bartender Hasegawa was discussing eagerly with the Mexican head, the bald man didn't know what he thought of, and asked the two people very confused.

"I don't know why, although I know who you are talking about, and I remember his appearance, but I can't remember his name, well, I'm sure, I can't remember."

"What do you mean, what are you talking about, isn't that brat's name just...Huh?!"

"Strange, it seems that you really can't remember it when you say it like this."

As soon as this seemingly simple question was asked, the bartender Hasegawa and the Mexican head couldn't answer it. The more they thought about it, the weirder it became, and their breathing became short of breath.

"That's really the case. I've been wondering since you've been referring to people by pronouns instead of names. I didn't expect this to be the case."

Seeing that the bartender Hasegawa and Mexico Head couldn't remember like him, the bald head nodded with some understanding.

"What do you mean? Although I can't remember his name, but I remember everything else, um, that's right, everything is clear except for the name... Tsk, this feels really disgusting."

I don't feel it when I don't realize it, but I realize it after I realize it. This kind of feeling of just forgetting a certain thing is very awkward.

It's like you watched a movie, although you clearly remember all the plots in the movie, but because you forgot the name of the movie, it is directly considered that you have not watched the movie, no matter what you explain, the other party can To refute you by name.

"This kind of situation reminds me of an animation I watched before...but the details are much different."

A certain work appeared in Mohican's head. Although he thought it was very similar at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was wrong. If it was that work, then it is impossible to forget just the name.

"I think it's more important now to find out how this happened than to find the person whose name is forgotten."

Because he realized the abnormality, the bald head didn't seem to plan to continue searching. Although Hasegawa asked him to help him, the current situation has obviously exceeded the standard, and it doesn't look like he can continue.

"how do you say…………"

After hearing what the bald head said, the bartender Hasegawa was silent for a while, neither agreeing nor denying, but looking at the remaining Mohawk.

"I think we should continue."

Mohawk thought for a long time, and gave a different answer from the bald head.

"Ok?"

"What's the reason?"

After hearing Mexico's words, Hasegawa and the bald head were a little puzzled, but they didn't refute, waiting for Mohawk's next answer.

"Although I don't remember it now, according to my memory, I should still remember the name of the kid yesterday afternoon. That is to say, the reason why I don't remember the name of the kid is that after I separated from the kid yesterday afternoon, until today's present It has happened up to the point in time, and in the situation where things have already happened, what do you think is the greatest possibility for us to forget the name of that little devil during this period of time?"

"The 'brain monster'?"

"Compared to passive defense, taking the initiative to attack is indeed better for grasping the initiative... However, this must be based on the fact that the possibility you mentioned is established."

Hearing Hasegawa say "brain demon", the bald man also understood the meaning of the Mexican head. After all, the purpose of the other party's coming here is because of the "brain demon". If the "brain demon" really caused this situation , is not a particularly unexpected thing.

The problem is, all of this has to be based on the condition that 'Brain Demon' has done all this.

If this is not true, for example, they did not forget the name of the other party, but the other party itself does not exist at all. If they cannot remember the name, it is not because they have forgotten it, but because they have never had this person from the beginning. It's all fake.

If this is the case, then their current initiative is tantamount to entering a dangerous situation for a companion who does not exist.

However, if it is true that all of them are false memories, it means that their memories are almost defenseless against the person who changes their memories, and the other party should move as soon as they want to change them. The difference is so big that there is no comparison at all. room.

This is almost impossible. If this can be done, what they do will be in vain. It is meaningless to consider the countermeasures themselves.

Therefore, assumptions must be made in terms of what they can accomplish.

Chapter 15 Girls

"The weird suicide girl, the student who claimed to be the 'savior', and the one who went back to the past... No matter how you look at it, something will happen. No, it's not right, it's more correct what has happened."

Convinced that there was no information from the waiter, the boy left the coffee shop. It is worth mentioning that when he left, he was sold a special pancake by the clerk.

I have to say that the pancake tasted very good, reminding him of a homemade pizza that the bartender Hasegawa once treated him to.
