If I had to say something special about that time, it might be the moonlight?
In line with the principle of trying everything possible, Chu Hua picked up the gem, walked to the edge of the balcony, and aimed it at the full moon in the sky.
Well, today is already the seventeenth, and it looks like the moon isn’t particularly round, so we’ll just have to make do with what we have!
Pointing the gem at the not-so-round full moon in the sky, Chu Hua felt as if he could actually see some image through the gem.
Putting his eyes close to it, Chu Hua felt as if he saw...
"Saki-chan?"
(PS: Could you please post more often? (`?ω??) I feel like some of the jokes I wrote have no one commenting on them, which is a bit embarrassing (*/ω\*))
Book I: The Book of Fears: 32. Portentum (Omen)
The cool and soft moonlight shines through the blood-red fragments of the boundary-breaking gem, casting a bewitching and strange light on Chu Hua's face.
Through this red crystal, Chu Hua felt that he saw the scene he had been longing for.
It was Xiaoxiang’s back, she was taking a bath.
Her blue hair, which was usually tied into two ponytails, was now tied up high. The steaming warm water covered Xiangzi's chest, but her smooth arms were exposed to Chuhua's eyes, which was enough to arouse endless imagination.
"Emmmm" A surge of excitement emerged in Chu Hua's heart, but was then suppressed by an extremely strong fear.
This thing is very evil, Chuhua can be sure of it.
The Xiaoxiang she saw was obviously not the Doctor Octopus of this universe. Not only because the place where he was was obviously a public bathhouse that Xiangzi of this world could hardly go to now, but also because Chuhua even felt that the other party's body was very... petite?
The octopus Xiaoxiang in this world is over 170cm tall, and is a lot bigger than the Xiaoxiang he sees taking a bath now.
Chu Hua is currently unable to determine what the function of this boundary-breaking gem fragment is. Can it allow him to see the fantasy he desires, or can it be used as an observation window for a parallel universe?
Even though Chuhua thought the second possibility was more likely, she didn't think the scene she had just seen must have come from her own universe. After all, Xiangzi should have returned to the Fengchuan family compound after leaving her home, and there was obviously no reason for him to go to the public bathhouse to take a bath.
But no matter what, the scene before him seemed to prove that he had taken the first solid step towards returning home. As long as he could gather all the fragments and piece together the boundary-breaking gem again, he believed he could return to his own world.
Although by then he would have to say goodbye to the big Xiangzi here, Chuhua thought a little sadly.
But the next moment, Chu Hua, seeing the red star crystal in his hand, suddenly had a bold idea.
Who said we have to say goodbye?
Can’t I come back after I go back?
Anyway, as long as the boundary-breaking gem is in her hands, then she, Sanjiao Chuhua, can come and go as she pleases, right?
As the saying goes, as long as your thinking slips, there are always more solutions than problems.
As soon as I changed my thinking, I felt that my entire mindset became broader.
Why should you choose between JK Xiaoxiang and OL Xiaoxiang?
You can obviously have them all!
Thinking about his own amazing wisdom, Chu Hua put down the fragment of the boundary-breaking gem that he was holding high and lay back on his small bed.
Closing his eyes, Chu Hua became more determined to seize all the "Secret Treasures of the Stars" in one fell swoop.
-----------------
For Chu Hua, there have been so many things going on recently that she has been so busy that she even forgot that there is a stubborn tenant living right under her house whom she originally wanted to evict.
The clone's daily life continued, and after being separated from Spider-Woman's life, every day seemed to be just as easy and pleasant for her.
Get up early to commute and clock in for work.
During lunch break, I had lunch with some acquaintances and colleagues I knew.
After get off work in the afternoon, I decide whether to go to an izakaya with my colleagues for a drink or two, and then return to my warm home to start a happy nightlife.
Day after day, she seemed to forget what it felt like to be a superhero.
Until this moment.
"Chu Hua" was originally lying on her soft little sofa, enjoying the youth campus love comedy with two female protagonists on TV, newly produced by mujica Entertainment, Mior II Yishan Ming"⒏⑵.
Since she has not experienced these wonderful things (in fact, most Tokyo people have not experienced them), she particularly likes this kind of program and is very much looking forward to the life in it.
Tonight is the crucial moment of the plot - on the gravel road in the middle of the stream, the heroine decides to face her feelings and confesses to her senior.
Legal Wife 2⑶0 (4) Jiuqi 厁 IV When Chuhua was about to have stars in her eyes because of the heart-pounding feeling bursting out from the TV, there seemed to be a sound outside.
Sob, dong, dong...
"Who?"
Disturbing other people's entertainment time is always the most unwelcome behavior, and the clone also showed an unhappy expression.
But the next moment, she came out of her entertainment state and immediately became alert.
This isn't his free, shabby little dormitory; it's the spider cave of the former Spider-Woman. Why would anyone come to disturb him?
"Chu Hua" listened to the direction of the noise and found that it was not coming from the passage leading to the apartment. It was obvious that the person disturbing him was not his real body.
It’s strange to say, ever since I welded the tunnel with steel plates, the main body seems to have never cared about this place again.
The clone didn't really want to find out why the real Triangle Chuhua didn't come down again. It would be great for "Chuhua" if she could just treat herself as a fart.
Since the noise did not come from upstairs, it could only have come from the entrance I came back from.
"Uh...it can't be that I didn't close the door when I came back..." The clone thought, holding his forehead.
The exit to the lower city is separated by two iron gates. The tunnel between the two gates is more than ten meters long, ensuring absolute safety and quietness, and also ensuring that the poisonous gas and radiation in the lower city will not spread to one's room.
Despite such complete security measures, I still make mistakes occasionally and only close the inner door, but forget to close the outer door which is a little distance away from the inner door.
Then this situation would occur: the mutant beasts in the lower city would crawl into the passage between the inner and outer doors, and then, because they felt the warmth in the room, they would keep knocking on the iron inner door, disturbing their sleep.
Generally speaking, the clone would choose to wear two extra earplugs so that she wouldn't be able to hear any noise outside no matter how loud it was.
But today is not an ordinary day. The TV series I have been following for a month is about to reach an important point!
How could such a great moment as the high school girl's innocent confession be disturbed by the noise outside?
So the clone decided to take the risk and go out, beat up the blind mutant beast and throw it out, and then close the outer door tightly.
Since we have planned to prepare for battle, we naturally need to be fully equipped.
"Chu Hua" casually touched the black and white battle suit and put it on, then adjusted the spider silk launcher to confirm whether it could be used.
Then look to the side and see the different styles of headgear.
"Emmmm." After hesitating for a moment, "Chu Hua" decided to just put on a red mask decorated with spider webs. "There's no need to be so formal when dealing with these scumbags."
Nearing the lair's exit, the clone knocked gently on the iron door.
There were roars outside, and the former Spider-Woman's spider-sense was buzzing like crazy.
Although he still couldn't guess what kind of beast was blocking his door, "Chu Hua" was confident that he could easily deal with it.
"And no matter what, we have to deal with it outside. We can't let the room become a mess."
After determining the battle strategy, "Chu Hua" quickly opened the iron gate and kicked the monster out of the secret entrance with a fierce flying kick.
The mutant monster took the kick hard and was kicked so cleanly and neatly, flying dozens of meters away, so that "Chu Hua" couldn't even see what it looked like.
"Then just close the door."
Just as the clone stepped forward to close the round iron door outside, a beam of spider silk suddenly shot out from outside the secret passage and stuck to her chest.
"Ah-oh-" "Chuhua" knew something was wrong, but before she could react, a huge force pulled her out of the secret passage.
The clone fell heavily to the ground, and before he could even cry out in pain, he saw the true appearance of the monster.
After taking a deep breath, she felt like crying.
The monster in front of him was half a man's height, with eight legs and two chelicerae as thick as an ordinary person's forearm.
As for the fangs, they were even bigger than his fists.
It is obvious that this is a mutant giant spider.
But if that were all, it wouldn't be a problem for the former Spider-Woman over there.
After all, no matter how powerful a spider is, it is still just a spider. How can it be compared with Spider-Woman, who is like a spider that has become a spirit?
But the big spider in front of him was obviously not an ordinary spider.
The spider monster's eight black eyes are arranged in three rows. The four eyes in the front row are smaller, the two eyes in the back row are medium-sized, and the two eyes in the center are obviously larger than the other six.
This is a mutant wolf spider.
Of course, there is nothing strange about the wolf spider's mutation. What is strange is that its entire body is covered with a layer of armor made of mucus, which is stylishly marked with a spider pattern.
"...md, symbiote..." The clone couldn't help but curse.
Why were there symbiotes in the city? She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
There are only two recorded symbiotes in this damn place called Tokyo. One of them only exists in legend and is said to be a sacred object that the Toyokawa family used to establish their rule and pass down from generation to generation.
"Chu Hua" doesn't know whether this rumor is true or not, but based on the descriptions of some people on the Internet such as "I saw it with my own eyes a long time ago!", let's just assume it is true.
The other one, known to most Tokyo residents, is Mutsuyuki Wakaba, the director of the Mujica Group.
In other words, the so-called "Wakaba Mutsu" is just a biochemical doll without self-awareness created using human DNA, and the symbiote named "Death" attached to it is her true face.
In order to find out this secret, "Chu Hua" was beaten up by the other party many times.
But now that he has abandoned his superhero identity and lives a peaceful life, the information he had previously gained by risking his life to defeat the opponent seems to be worthless.
But Chuhua was sure that he had never seen the symbiont on the spider monster in front of him.
This symbiote of strange color - uh, maybe it should be called olive green - is obviously not the acquaintance he knew.
However, if he said that the sacred object of the Toyokawa family was just abandoned in the downtown area, and then he was bored in the middle of the night and came to meet his former friendly neighbor in Tokyo, that would be obviously too outrageous.
No matter what, "Chu Hua" must kill it here, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
The spider monster and the spider spirit confronted each other, as if waiting for who would reveal a flaw first.
The ten eyes stared at each other for a long time, and the monster finally could no longer bear its murderous nature, and jumped up and pounced on "Chuhua"'s head to bite.
"Chu Hua" saw the right moment, raised his left arm to block the opponent's chest and abdominal joints, and then pushed hard to clamp it on the surrounding stone wall.
The symbiotic spider monster seemed to be enraged by the failure to kill its prey directly, so it bit the arm in front of it hard and began to inject toxins into "Chuhua"'s body with its stinging limbs.
