Can't Stop Drawing

Captain Chen showed a teachable expression, nodded in relief, and said, "That's right, Hoshiguma is a ghost clan from the earth era, your Sakurajima ghost clan. According to her, it seems that the ghost clan in your Sakurajima folklore Hoshikuma Doji, the prototype is her."

Shirai Heizi suddenly widened his eyes, pointed at the door of the room and said, "Isn't that caused by Sister Hoshigum's ability!? Is she really... really a ghost!?"

Since the popularity of superpowers based on self-reality, there will be people in every region who have changed their physical characteristics because of their own abilities. Some people still look like human beings, such as cat ears, fox tails, etc. Some people's changes are more exaggerated, such as turning into a toad or something.

Shirai Kuroko always thought Hoshiguma had a horn on her forehead because of her own ability.

According to Hoshiguma's performance, for example, he is tall, powerful, and likes to drink, all of which are somewhat similar to the legendary ghost clan.

However, in folklore, ghosts are usually ugly with green faces and fangs, and there are no blond ghosts.

From the beginning, Shirai Heizi didn't think about the real ghost race, but thought that it was Hoshiguma's ability, a certain ability to change her own shape, which could bring her closer to the ghost race.

As a result, tell her now that Hoshiguma is a real ghost clan, or an old antique that has lived for thousands of years.

Shirai Heizi couldn't accept it for a while.

After the shock, think about it calmly, Shirai Kuroko seems to be able to see a lot of evidence from the details of daily life, for example, Hoshiguma once received paper letters and would write and send them.

Thinking about it this way, I found that this incident was not unacceptable, but it felt rather sudden.

"Why... suddenly mentioning this matter? Could it be..." Shirai Heizi narrowed his eyes and looked at Captain Chen.

Captain Chen nodded, propped his chin with both hands, and said, "Xingxiong—"

Swallowing unconsciously, Shirai Heizi looked at Captain Chen nervously.

"——she took a long vacation for a few days, and planned to go to Academy City to meet old friends. It just so happens that you are also going back, or you can drop by."

Seeing Captain Chen raising his head and smiling, Shirai Heizi stroked his forehead and sighed.

Just now my heart was raised, looking at Captain Chen's appearance, I thought that Sister Xingxiong was going to retire, or something serious happened, but it turned out that it was just a simple vacation, and there was no need to be nervous at all.

But if you think about it carefully, Hoshiguma, who lived from the ancient times of the earth era to the modern age, has far exceeded the statutory retirement age in terms of age, and is theoretically fully qualified to receive a pension.

But she still looks young and strong, does not need social pension, and can even make more contributions to society.

For example, join the secret service squad now and become a policeman.

Because of the existence of meta-human races like the ghost race, and the fact that many people's self-realization ability will affect their own lifespan, the retirement system that was originally formulated for human beings is no longer suitable for the new era.

When Shirai Kuroko watched the news recently, he could see discussions about the major reform of the retirement system.

Chapter 776 The Pet Shop in Academy City

Academy City, Airport.

The large passenger plane hovering in the air for a minute landed slowly. Under the control of the crew members, the anti-gravity effect brought by the strange engine gradually disappeared, allowing the passenger plane to land smoothly without severe frustration and falling impact.

Waiting for the passenger plane to come to a complete stop, under the command of the ground crew, the boarding channel directly extends the door of the docking passenger plane, allowing passengers to directly enter the airport hall through the channel.

The passenger's luggage has already been taken out of the cargo hold first, and sent to the sorting center in the lobby for passengers to retrieve.

Kuroko Shirai, Shiri Uiharu, and Yuki Hoshiguma arrived in Academy City on this flight.

The three of them didn't bring much luggage, only a small amount of daily necessities, and more personal items had already been sent back through logistics, or they simply bought them again.

"Sister Xingxiong, where are you going next?"

Shirai Heizi glanced at the positioning information on the communication terminal, then looked at the tall red-horned ghost king beside him.

"Chuharu and I will go to the branch to report first, and then go back home. We will not go to work until the announced date, so there is still some time. Do you want us to be your guide in Academy City?"

Hoshiguma waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, my old friend has already arrived in Academy City... It seems inaccurate to say that, it should be said that she plans to make a big splash in Academy City, and has initially gained a foothold. I directly Just go find her."

"That's it. Do you know her location? Do you need to..."

He raised the communication terminal in his hand to let Shirai Heizi and Chuchun see the electronic map on it, Hoshiguma smiled and said, "I'm not an old antique who doesn't know anything, and I used these things a lot in the police force. What are you worrying about?"

Hoshiguma's words stunned Shirai Kuroko and Chuharu, and then they remembered that there seemed to be a lot of high-tech products in the secret service team, and there was nothing Hoshiguma couldn't play with.

Now that she doesn't know how to use these things, it's purely a stereotype after knowing that Hoshiguma's actual age is more than a thousand years old, and she has forgotten the experience of getting along with Hoshiguma.

"That's right, we all forgot that Sister Xingxiong is also a modern person."

After figuring it out, Shirai Kuroko felt relieved, said goodbye to Hoshiguma at the airport, and used his ability to take Chuchun to leave first.

Watching the two leave, Hoshiguma glanced at the electronic map and walked towards the rail train station next to the airport.

……

Academy City, a certain street.

There is a new pet shop here, which sells all kinds of pets, including traditional pets, such as cats, dogs, and parrots, as well as special pets, such as snakes, lizards, and frogs, and even other shops will not sell them. Rare pets such as dragons, dinosaurs, pegasus.

The first two kinds of pets basically have living bodies in the store, which can be selected by customers, while the last kind of rare pets only have videos and materials, and no real objects can be seen.

The owner of the store is a girl with cherry-colored hair and two buns. Her right arm is wrapped in a thick bandage, and no inch of skin is exposed.

She hired several Academy City ability users with the ability to communicate with animals to help manage the pet shop. Some of them are social people who have graduated, some are high school students who are still in school, and some are college students who have nothing to do.

jingle.

The doorbell rang, and a tall, blond woman with a red horn on her forehead walked in, lugging a suitcase. She didn't look human.

Looking at the rather retro decoration in the store, Hoshiguma couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and clicked his tongue twice while shaking his head.

The relatives and friends in Gensokyo have different levels of acceptance of modern society. There are people like Hoshiguma who actively embrace modern society, accept all kinds of new things, try new lives, and can be admitted to the police force. Like the flower field tyrant who guards his own sun flower field, he is an old-fashioned person who stays in Gensokyo autistically.
