Zongman, can you be immortal with me for the rest of your life?

That was a cosmetics endorsement advertisement by the famous artist Minami Mori.

After looking up at the advertisement for a while, Xiangzi remembered that Aunt Mori was also on the boat at that time, but she was basically unconscious from the beginning to the end. It has been almost a month since that incident, and he wondered how Mu and the others are doing.

Xiangzi vaguely felt that he shouldn't have provoked Mu and wanted to apologize, but he couldn't take the initiative to do so.

This made her a little worried.

The person she was worried about at this moment, Ruo Yemu, was in the most helpless situation in her life.

Ever since returning from the cruise, Ruo Yemu's mental state has been unstable. Even the servants at home can notice this. She becomes cheerful and talkative one moment, and then returns to her old self the next.

"Mu, you seem a little strange lately."

The famous entertainer with long green hair was sitting on the plush sofa in her home.

And it was a bit strange that the man next to her was wearing formal clothes even though he was at home.

"We'll talk about Mu later. Minami, haven't you taken on any new roles recently?"

"Yeah, that incident hasn't even passed yet. Look at my expression, it's still a little stiff."

The woman reached out and touched her face, revealing an expression that looked like a wry smile, but the smile was a little strange.

As if to change the subject, the woman deliberately glanced at her watch.

"Hey, Aaron, don't you have to rush around again today? Is it too late if you don't leave now? You should memorize more of today's jokes, right?"

"That's right, I'll be off then."

The man also glanced at his watch, then stood up and made a phone call to coordinate the itinerary.

At this time, in the basement of the house, Ruo Yemu looked upstairs with a strange look, holding her guitar.

"Da da!"

The sound of slippers being lifted and then dropped occurred in the basement corridor.

If Ye Mu looked up, he would see his mother looking at him with a smile.

"Mu, do you want to practice guitar today too? Don't be too tired. I've already withdrawn from the classes that Mu didn't want to go to without telling Aaron. I've also asked Auntie to prepare something for you to eat today!"

By the way, Mu-chan, can you tell me what we went through at that time? Mom was in a coma and didn’t know a lot of things.

Looking at the woman who was smiling gently at him, Ruo Yemu felt an unprecedented panic.

She had fallen asleep, and on that ship, when the pressure reached its peak, the other self sleeping in her body took over.

But later she woke up again, but the reason she woke up was because of her mother, because of her mother's love, unprecedented care.

Her mother would care about her affectionately every day instead of continuing with her own work. Her mother would notice that she was embarrassed about some things and then turn them down.

The feeling of love awakens the doll from eternal sleep.

But this feeling of love also made Ruoye Mu feel at a loss.

I don’t know when, maybe after my mother went out, she seemed like a different person.

"I……"

Mu opened his mouth to say something, but then realized that every time he opened his mouth he would make things worse, so he closed his mouth again and lowered his head.

Just as she lowered her head, her whole body trembled, and she felt a warm embrace coming up from the side.

"It's okay, Mu, you can say whatever you want, I won't be angry.

After all, everyone has to go through the process of learning to get along with others, and I went through that, too."

The mother's face showed a stiff and loving expression as she claimed that she felt some discomfort due to the anesthesia but insisted on not going to the hospital.

"I want to listen to Mu's guitar. Mu used to be in a band... Can you tell me about it?"

"I'm not good at playing guitar."

Mu is much more capable than a certain pink-haired guy who was the student council president in junior high school, but he has an extremely low self-esteem and keeps his head down.

"It's okay. Even if I can't play well, Mom will still listen because I'm Mu's mom!"

"I……"

Mu's heart was deeply touched. She had never heard her mother say such words before. Her dull expression became a little tense and she raised her head.

At this moment, her mother's stiff expression was so warm in her eyes that she had an urge to go up and hug her and cry.

But she didn't move until this moment.

"Well... Mu, you can come find me anytime you want."

The embrace loosened, and Mu felt a little reluctant to leave. How long had it been since he had been with his mother like this? Ten years? Eight years? Or even since he was born?

Mu didn’t know, she just felt that she was very happy now, happier than ever before.

It was only because of this happiness that she felt anxious. Sensitive people are always like this. Whenever God gives her some luck, she will be extremely nervous and afraid that it may have a price tag in secret.

"Mu, Minami-chan seems to be acting strangely. She can't talk about anything from the past, and she doesn't go out. Dad, who is busy at work, can't notice it. Mu-chan, who stays at home with Minami-chan every day, can't notice it either?"

As if deliberately trying to ruin her good mood, a voice sounded in her mind.

"you shut up."

She felt a sense of inexplicable irritation and was angry at herself in reality.

Xiangzi no longer cares about her, Sushi has also gone crazy, and now her mother has become protective of her, what's wrong with that...

There's nothing wrong with that. Since speaking out something every time you discover something will only make things worse, it's better not to say it.

……

As night fell, Chris and his friends gathered in a pork cutlet rice restaurant in Ginza.

"It's been a whole day, and we haven't found anything."

Kirito was a little distressed. He had been faithfully carrying out his patrol duties all day long.

"That's why I suggested from the beginning that you come back to look for something in the evening. Hey, I'm using clean chopsticks."

Kazuma tried to steal a piece of pork chop from Kerry's bowl, but Kerry blocked his attack with a chopstick, and he was furious.

"You can't even be born like that."

Chris protected the pork chop rice.

While a few people were talking, there was also a table of people communicating next to them.

"Hey, Xiaokui, why are you putting so many pork chops in the bag?" The plump middle-aged woman looked at her divine daughter.

"Give it to Xiaobai. Xiaobai will be lonely in the car alone."

The little girl who will be going to junior high school after this year winked mischievously.

"No, no, no, your brother brought Xiaobai back when he was in kindergarten. Now your brother is in high school. Xiaobai is already very old. You are really torturing him by bringing him with you to Tokyo. You can't feed him fried food like this!"

Chapter 290: New teammates have appeared (the second picture is a bit scary)

"Let's go, let's go, Guangzhi told you to drink less beer."

"Meiya, I didn't mean it."

As the sky gradually darkened, the surrounding businesses were also hit hard by the recent uproar over the murder case in Ginza 1-chome.

A middle-aged woman carried her husband on her back and walked back to the car.

Because her husband was disobedient again today and acted like a drunkard under the pretext of "just relax when traveling", now she can't drive back.

They found a designated driver and drove to a mid-range hotel in Chuo Ward. Nohara Hiroshi was promoted to section chief as early as the beginning of the millennium, and he had paid off most of the 35-year mortgage in advance. This kind of expenditure was still affordable. Returning to the booked hotel, Nohara Misae sighed.

At that time, my daughter kept clamoring to come to Tokyo during the holidays, and I had no choice but to agree. Coincidentally, my husband also came with us on his annual leave. As a result, we didn't have much fun on the trip, but our wallet was empty.

"Xiao Kui, take Xiao Bai with you and take him for a walk nearby. Once he's finished solving his problem, bring him back and leave him at the hotel's pet storage area. Got it?"

"understood."

The girl nodded and took out a snow-white puppy from the car.

Anyone who has raised a dog knows that most dogs will consciously not go to the toilet at home, but at this time you need to take them out for a walk. They will solve this problem in the wild. This is why dog owners have to walk their dogs.

The white puppy's steps were a little slow. Being in his teens was considered a long life for the dog species.

And it was clear that the puppy's life was coming to an end.

Its teeth were worn out, its hair turned from bright white to pale, and it could no longer pull its little master forward when walking. Instead, it was slowly led by the equally old leash, taking heavy, small steps at the feet of its little master.

"Hey hey hey! Mom's finally not around. Let's go! Xiaobai! Let's go see the cowherd!"

However, the daughter of this family was obviously too mature. She started to quicken her pace as soon as she left her mother's sight.

"Just now, with my mom beside me, I didn't dare to look closely at those signs. This time, I want to see all the handsome guys in Tokyo at once."

Looking at this girl who had the same character as her brother, Xiaogou sighed very humanely. He had been in the Nohara family for so many years, and there had been many supernatural events in Kasukabe, a place with many talented people and beautiful scenery, and he had experienced a lot.

Let's go back and see Xiaoxin for the last time. When I get older, I will leave this family. I hope my children can continue to bring laughter to the members of this family. Humans give food to dogs, and dogs bring joy to people. This is what Xiaobai thinks.

I also hope that they won't be overly sad because of my departure.

When the end of their life is near, some dogs will leave their owner's home and find a place where no one cares about them, waiting for the end of their life.

Feeling the rope speeding up due to the acceleration of the little master, Xiaobai was also forced to quicken his pace.

"Let me see. According to the navigation, we can go directly through here and return to Ginza."

The girl held a cell phone in her hand, flipping through the map, searching for the shortest route. It seemed that she still remembered not to walk for too long, but the speed made her a little uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Xiaobai stopped abruptly and dug into the ground with his four paws.

This caused it to stumble as its little master, who was still pulling it forward, pulled it back.

"What's wrong? Xiaobai?"

The girl asked doubtfully, squatting down to look at her dog.

"Woo..."

Xiaobai opened his rugged canine teeth and whimpered softly at the dark alley. He didn't dare to make too much noise and kept pulling his little master to get her to leave.

Its sense of smell, which is many times more sensitive than that of humans, just smelled a fishy odor in the air.

The fishy smell did not come from any common food, but rather from a more common animal. It was the smell of human blood, a smell that Mrs. Nohara had smelled when she accidentally pricked her finger while doing needlework.

Salty and fishy, with a hint of sourness and stimulation.

It hopes that its intentions can be conveyed, and it is almost able to speak, but its meaning does not seem to be understood by those who care about it.

"Xiaobai, are you afraid of the dark? Hey, how about I carry you and walk with you?"

The girl with curly hair squatted down, but Xiaobai had already come in front of her.

It was too late, it heard footsteps.

"Woo! Woof!"

It roared at the darkness with all its might, trying to scare the other party, but the footsteps did not stop. Xiao Kui turned her head in confusion, and the faint light from the mobile phone screen illuminated the alley.

That is……? !

Is that a person? No! Only from the neck down it looks human.

The part above the neck exploded directly and twisted into countless tentacle-like strips of flesh, which scattered around the face and slowly squirmed.

The scarlet muscles were exposed to the air, and the muscle fibers twitched a little bit. The thing seemed a little surprised to be discovered. It wanted to change its head back to human appearance, but it was too late. It simply dispersed and bloomed like a flower on a human face.

He twisted his head slightly, and his terrifying head started spinning. Without saying a word, he ran directly towards the girl.

The girl screamed in fear and retreated backwards in a panic. Seeing this, Xiaobai suddenly broke free from his master's hand.

Run!Run!

I'll hold this thing!

Unable to convey its meaning, the harmless white puppy opened its mouth and bit the creature's ankle.

"Ouch!"

Its body, no longer as agile as it was when it was young, betrayed its thoughts. A heavy kick landed on the puppy's marshmallow-like body. It seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking, and it rolled over and hit a trash can on the side of the road.

"noob!"
