The Witch's Taste

Chapter 68 Let's Gather in Qiandao

On the way, Tsukimiya Suzuna casually played with her mobile phone, watching friends in the group discuss with each other.

Now that comprehensive information control has begun on the Internet, if ordinary people have not seen a ghoul with their own eyes, the probability of knowing about the mutation is not high.

But her social circle is almost all the second generation who live together in Guanting Street, so naturally it is impossible to keep in the dark.

Although they still don't know what a ghoul is, they probably understand it as some kind of rabies-like biochemical weapon virus that can turn people into painless, highly aggressive monsters, so they are very careful when traveling , Every day, people send messages in the group that "such and such a place is no longer safe".

[Yutu refuses to admit defeat]: Is the road from Akita to Qiandao safe today?

[Mimijiang]: Be careful, there have been three accident reports, I will send the exact location to the group.

Tsukimiya Suzuna browsed through the news records, looked at the various positions posted by everyone in the group, and thought that it was the right decision to ask senior to go to Qiandao—after all, ghouls can’t swim, so they couldn’t cross the hot lake to go to Qiandao Go up and greet the citizens.

Another message popped up on the screen, but [Mimi Jiang] was chatting with her privately:

"Suzuna, by the way, you are in the Public Security Department of Jibei City, right? Is there any gossip?"

"Well, as far as I know, it's a poor woman whose husband and child were killed by wild wolves, and she wants to carry out large-scale indiscriminate revenge." Suzuna Tsukimiya replied.

"Yeah, it's too bad, so you caught her?"

"No." Yuegong Suzuna sighed, and typed back, "Now the unit is almost in a mess, and everything is handed over to the military. Your Song family should be better informed than I am about this."

"Maybe, but I haven't paid much attention recently. After all, I'm getting married. By the way, did you bring your boyfriend?"

"Reserve, he's not a boyfriend yet."

"No way, no way, is there any man Suzuna-chan can't take down?"

"Yes, you will see you soon."

Suzuna Yuegong chatted casually with her friends, while Chen Ziang couldn't stay idle by the side, and also brushed up the news of the work group.

According to colleagues, the current security situation in the entire Jibei City can be said to be very unoptimistic, and changes are happening everywhere.

Although the military attacked everywhere, on the one hand, the killing efficiency of modern weapons against ghouls was not as high as expected;

Colleagues were all watching the joke, only Chen Ziang was worried, because if this went on, the so-called "hiding the mysterious existence from the public" would soon become a joke.

You must know that as long as anyone realizes that there are monsters in the world, there is a slight risk of spiritual vision, which will increase the possibility of subsequent encounters with weirdness.

It's like becoming some kind of bait, starting to attract the weirdness in the abyss to come to the world.

And if this kind of spiritual pollution spreads among the masses, a large number of "people with low spiritual vision" will soon appear.

Even if Mie Nishikawa doesn't take action in the future, the existence of these low-vision people will cause the frequency of mutations in Jibei City to increase rapidly. What should we do then?

Hand it over to outsourcing... Spiritual pollution can be spread to ten, ten to hundreds, rising at a geometric rate. Can the number of outsourced personnel increase like this?

When the time comes, the manpower will still not be able to keep up!

Chen Ziang had a pessimistic feeling, as if he was sitting on a bus rushing towards the cliff, but the passengers had no right to speak and could only watch the driver slam on the accelerator.

Seeing his irritable expression, Tsukimiya Suzuna immediately guessed that the senior must be worrying about work again, so she secretly took out her phone and sent him a picture.

Chen Ziang clicked on it and saw that it was a selfie taken by Yuegong Lingna pouting cutely... No, this girl doesn't need to try to be cute, her appearance is enough to be called very cute.

"Let's get started." Tsukimiya Suzuna said with a smile, "After all, we are going out to play, senior."

What else could Chen Ziang say, he could only force a smile.

"Senior, look at this!" Tsukimiya Suzuna sent him a few more selfies, "Which one do you think looks better?"

"They're all pretty good-looking." Chen Ziang said frankly.

A pretty girl, whether it's pouting her lips, V-shaped hands, poking her face, or a simple smile, is enough to make people feel pleasing to the eye, not to mention Tsukimiya Suzuna's appearance is at the level that hardly needs retouching.

"Miss, after getting off the expressway ahead, we will arrive at the cruise ship terminal in a few minutes." Emon Goro said suddenly.

"Oh." Tsukimiya Suzuna looked out the window, "It's great to be able to arrive smoothly."

This sentence seemed to mean something, but Chen Ziang didn't realize anything, just followed her gaze and looked out.

Bisha Daiying, lakes and mountains, come into view.

--------

Xichuan Meihui stood on the mountain, looking at the sparkling lake in the distance, her face was expressionless in a daze.

She suddenly recalled that before her tenth birthday, her son once said that his most wanted birthday gift was a trip to Rehu Qiandao Scenic Area in Jinchuan District.

"The squad leader's tenth birthday party was held in the resort area of ​​Qiandao, and almost the whole class was invited." That's what the son said at the time.

Why didn't he invite his son? It seemed that he was too frugal and his family was not well off.After all, for a child of this age, no one wants to be friends with a poor classmate who is usually reluctant to buy orange soda from the canteen.

At that time, Meihui Xichuan didn't speak, but silently cut down her monthly expenses, saved an extra sum of money into an extra account, and planned to take the whole family to Rehu Qiandao after saving enough.

And that money... in the two years after the family was killed by wild dogs, it was all spent in the rush to hire a lawyer to fight the lawsuit.

There was a severe pain in her heart, which caused her face to convulse violently, and her eyebrows and eyes were almost twisted into a ball.

At the same time, some kind of power flooded into her mind.

Tinder, since she became a witch, she naturally knew the term.

Xi Chuan Meihui has not read any system texts, but it does not prevent her from understanding that this fire can be exchanged for the power of revenge - from a god named "King of Ghouls".

Therefore, she has become accustomed to revisiting those warm memories of the past over and over again, just like stabbing a knife in her bruised body, using her own pain to please the god, so as to get more fire .

"You are working too hard." A woman's voice came from behind.

"I don't need your evaluation, Takano." Mie Nishikawa said indifferently, "You can't feel my pain at all."

"Pain will only destroy your sanity." The woman named Gao Ye sighed faintly, "You are indeed getting stronger, but what is the price?"

"The price is to kill myself." Xi Chuan Meihui laughed desperately, showing her white teeth, "For me, the only motivation to keep me alive is to let this world that takes everything I own, Taste the same pain, if not deeper."

"But you are different from us, Seiko Takano. Even after becoming a witch, you still have trust in this world, and you still don't want to trust your power. Instead, you fantasize about continuing to use the rules of a civilized society to solve problems."

"And we look forward to the day when you will be cornered completely by this cruel and merciless world."

Chapter 69 Arriving at the Aquarium

Among the [-] administrative districts of Jibei City, Jinchuan District has the highest average housing price, and it is not without reason.

Hot Lake, the largest hot spring lake in Tianyuan Planet, is also the most convenient and cheap source of heat in the entire Jibei City, located in the center of Jinchuan District.

In fact, within the scope of Quanjibei City, the closer to the hot lake in Jinchuan District, the more comfortable and pleasant the climate.

For example, in Shinjuku, Akita and Mikawa districts, the temperature is maintained at around 20 degrees throughout the year, and you only need to wear short sleeves when going out.

Gunma, Beihai, Chiba and other places farther away belong to the saw-saw zone between hot air and cold current outside the city. Everyone has to check the weather forecast every day to choose clothes, otherwise they may be frozen one day when they go out.

As for the area outside the city that cannot be covered by the hot lake, it is a world of ice and snow dominated by the Lord of Winter, where only wild wolves (wild dogs), snow rabbits, and moss can barely survive—the so-called "thermophilic fungus" Special moss grows densely around geothermal fissures, and snow rabbits with a keen sense of smell will dig holes to find them, and wild wolves will dig in along the holes dug by rabbits...

On the cold and cruel high-altitude planet, all life is greedily thirsting for the heat seeping from the surface, and losing the heat is tantamount to death.

Because of this, when Chen Ziang helped his younger sister and got out of the car, he was immediately stunned by the beautiful scenery near the hot lake.

Like the West Lake under the drizzle, or Lake Geneva under the Alps' snow peaks, few lakes can subtly integrate the two completely different climate landscapes of cold and warm at the same time.

To the northeast of the hot lake is Furong Mountain, whose peak is covered with snow all the year round, and the magnificent Gaoling Glacier.

The glacier melts the Benqi River on the mountainside, and then flows into the hot lake along the mountain.The river itself is cold and bone-chilling, and the content of mixed sediment in it is extremely low, which makes the hot lake have the unique clearness and blue color of plateau moraine lakes.

The geothermal fissures all over the bottom of the lake are like huge floor heating, making the climate around the hot lake extremely comfortable, and a large number of willow trees are densely planted by the lake.If you don't look at the Saga Snow Mountain in the distance, it is completely the unique style of Jiangnan.

Chen Ziang took out the wheelchair from the trunk, and asked Chen Xiaozhu to sit down.

"Let me do it." Emon Goro tried to take the position of pushing the wheelchair.

"No, I'll come." Chen Ziang declined.

"Let Uncle Emmon come." Tsukimiya Suzuna persuaded, "His technique of pushing a wheelchair has been practiced, and it is as stable as his technique of driving."

So what is the reason why I went to practice the technique of pushing the wheelchair...

Chen Ziang complained in his heart, but Emon Goro's driving skills are really good. Whether it is overtaking or entering the ramp, he never has any feeling of pushing back or braking suddenly, and it is more stable than the subway.

Seeing that Goro Emon took the handle of the wheelchair and pushed Chen Xiaozhu around the lake for a few times, and his sister didn't show any discomfort, Chen Ziang secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing him acquiescing, Tsukimiya Suzuna felt even more proud.

The first step of the plan is achieved!

Although Chen Xiaozhu has to use Chen Xiaozhu to bring his senior out to play, it will be inconvenient to get closer to him if his sister-chan is always by his side... After all, his senior will definitely be concerned about his image as an elder brother.

So I have to let Gomon Goro take over the responsibility of taking care of my younger sister-chan, so that I can have the opportunity to be alone with my senior!

In fact, there are some contradictions: on the one hand, Tsukimiya Suzuna knows very well that the gap between her family background and her senior's is too great.

If the genders are swapped, it will directly become a story of the rich and the young trying to take care of the policewoman - the rich and the young say it is true love, do you believe it?

In addition, because of his younger sister, Chen Ziang almost lived a life of singleness and abstinence.Although there is nothing unusual at ordinary times, once the opposite sex tries to attack, he will subconsciously show a defensive posture.

The only solution is to start with friends first and slowly dissolve his defenses.

This is also the only effective method that has been proven in previous lives.

However, on the other hand, Tsukimiya Suzuna often knows that she needs to restrain herself, but once her eyes meet the senior's, she still can't help but want to get closer to him.

It's like a polar animal that endured the severe cold in the ice and snow, and suddenly dug out a geothermal crack from the soil. Even if you know that you will be burned if you get too close, you still can't help but bury your face in it.

"Did you see it, senior?" She grabbed Chen Ziang's arm and motioned him to look over to her, "Over there is the Qiandao Aquarium!"

When Chen Ziang looked around, the exterior of Qiandao Aquarium was quite inconspicuous. It even looked a bit like an ordinary farmhouse, but with the surrounding scenery of the hot lake like splashed ink landscape paintings, there was a sense of harmony and harmony that did not overwhelm the guests.

In addition, as Tsukimiya Suzuna said, probably because of the price of the ticket, there was no queue at the entrance of the aquarium, which was in sharp contrast to the memory of the tourist attractions in the previous life where there were always huge crowds of people.

Sure enough, as long as you are rich, you don't have to queue even if you go to a public attraction like the aquarium.

At the entrance of the aquarium, Suzuna Yuegong picked up her small bag, took out two paper tickets and handed them to Chen Ziang.

"Where's Uncle Weimon?" Chen Ziang asked, "Won't he go in with us?"

"No." Emon Goro said respectfully, "I am the butler of the young lady, and I can use this annual fee member's free tour qualification, and the aquarium also knows about it."

At the ticket gate not far away, the conductor also showed a flattering smile of "we do know".

In the morning, the foreman explained that a distinguished customer bought the special service of "annual membership", and told her not to show any flaws - although the aquarium has never had any annual membership, the other party gave too much.

Not to mention bringing a butler in, even if you bring in all the maids, gardeners, tutors and the like.

Chen Ziang didn't know why, but he was just amazed, so he handed the two tickets to the ticket inspector, and then followed Yuegong Suzuna into the aquarium.

As soon as he entered the gate, the faint blue wave light greeted his eyes.

In order to create a quiet atmosphere in the deep sea, most of the aquariums use blue light as the background, and all kinds of strange-shaped and colorful alien fish slowly migrate in it. For a while, it seems that people really have the illusion of being in the deep sea.

When I think of the deep sea, I think of the Lord of the Great Deep Sea... Chen Ziang resolutely suppressed the dangerous thought of dying, and then turned to look at Chen Xiaozhu.

I saw my sister staring at the aquarium intently, as if admiring the graceful posture of these fish, but there was nothing but nothingness in her eyes.

"Uncle Emmon." Tsukimiya Suzuna snapped her fingers.

Goro Emon quickly came to the side of the aquarium and pressed the play button of the explanation device, and the voice of the science popularizer rang out in the quiet room:

"White ventral fish, from the deep Jupiter region, is a rare fish that can only live in volcanic lakes..."

Chen Xiaozhu listened quietly, with an expression of interest, which rarely relieved Chen Ziang.

"Senior, there are still fish models that you can touch." Tsukimiya Suzuna suggested again, "Let's go and bring some for sister-chan to play with."

Transition

Chapter 70 Demon Sword Muramasa

I have to say that part of the ticket price of the Thousand Island Aquarium is indeed worthwhile.

Let’s not mention the popular science broadcaster that will automatically explain fish knowledge just by pressing a button. Just these exquisitely made, lifelike silicone models that can feel fish scales can make people feel the service of the aquarium. .

In the nearby open space surrounded by aquariums, there is an open coffee shop for tourists to rest, selling cold drinks, ice cream and snacks and desserts.Chen Ziang put the returned models on the table, so that his younger sister could slowly touch them one by one, and draw the corresponding shapes in his mind.

Although they can't see their brilliant and fantastic colors, but for Chen Xiaozhu who doesn't go out, it's probably a satisfying experience.

"Senior, let my sister-chan slowly 'look' here." Tsukimiya Suzuna took a cup of ice cream and said while eating, "Let's go over there for a walk."

"Miss Xiaozhu, leave it to the old man to take care of me." Emon Goro immediately proposed to create a chance for the two of his young ladies to be alone.

Seeing his sister's quiet appearance, Chen Ziang also felt relieved, and followed Yuegong Suzuna to the depths of the aquarium.
