Time passes day by day, and the temperature is getting warmer. In a blink of an eye, the grass is growing, the trees that have been sleeping all winter have sprouted new buds, and the ground in front of and behind the house is also growing green grass.
, the children took off their heavy winter clothes, put on lighter clothes, and ran happily in groups.
Children in Kisarazu Town have one more activity to play than children in other places, and that is to race with Makoto Chiba dragging a tire as tall as other people. They shout and scream while running. It is very lively and exciting.
Chiba Makoto’s boring training brought a little fun.
However, once the mother discovers it, he will be taken home immediately, scolded after the door is closed, and warned not to play with that weirdo. But children are like this. The more parents stop them, the more they like to do it and come here secretly under various names.
,Participate in 'sparring'.
When it was lunch time, the children dispersed and went home to eat. Chiba Cheng also stopped running and began to practice swordsmanship. When it was time to take a rest, the new bamboo sword cut through the air and made a sharp sound.
Use one move to show off your style.
Although the lightsaber consumes energy quickly, it is indeed handsome, and the lightsaber is very powerful. Compared with small skills and so on, it is much easier to use.
Well, to put it bluntly, I’m addicted.
Therefore, after returning from the fight against the ghost, Chiba Makoto picked up the swordsmanship provided by Ida Iryu and allocated half of his training time to practice swordsmanship. Diligence can make up for his weakness, not to mention that he was unexpectedly good at fighting.
He is very talented. He has only been practicing for more than half a month, and his proficiency has improved to a higher level. I guess if he fights against the ghost again, he will never be completely suppressed in swordsmanship like before.
While he was practicing, a dusty car drove over along the winding dirt road. The car was dirty and it looked like it hadn't been washed for a long time. Chiba Cheng stood up with his sword put away, picked up the towel hanging on the branch,
I wiped the sweat off my body and then stepped forward to greet him.
Such a dirty car is the only one in Kisarazu. You can tell at a glance that it is the slovenly Onoda Takehiko. He has looked like this half-dead person since he came back five years ago. It is estimated that this car has not been cleaned since then.
.
The car door opened, and it was indeed Onoda Takehiko who got out. Chiba Makoto shouted from a distance: "Uncle Onoda, when did you come back?"
"Last night," Takehiko Onoda leaned against the car door, lit a cigarette for himself, and said, "Why did you remember to exercise?"
Chiba Cheng shrugged and said: "Run faster to survive, otherwise where would so many photos come from?"
"Haha," Onoda Takehiko laughed and said, "You are really trying your best. You should be careful. The world is much more complicated than what we see."
"Well," Qianye Cheng nodded, walked over and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"The president has arranged an interview task, you go to one for me..." Onoda Takehiko fell silent after half a sentence. He stood there blankly with a cigarette between his arms, remembering that five years ago, he reported an item that he did not know like this.
The interview task I liked was given to an intern, and then...
Chiba Makoto pulled out a page of fax from his hand. It said that a strange thing happened in Totoma Town, located in the northern part of the Kanto Plain. Trees were clearly sprouting and grass was growing in other places, but it was still winter near their village.
In the scene of withering, there is not a blade of grass on the ground, not a single bud on the trees, and even the crops in the fields are beginning to wither.
"It's indeed strange." Qianye Cheng nodded matter-of-factly. Spring is the time when all things revive. How could there be no grass or buds? If this is the case in an area, it means there is a problem. If it is a large area, it must be a big problem.
Such as large-scale pollution or something.
"Forget it, myself..." Onoda Takehiko has already 'repented'. If he had changed his mind back then, he might not have spent five years in regret.
"It's okay, I haven't opened a business for a long time, so I just made a quick trip. Thank you, uncle."
Onoda Takehiko opened his mouth, and finally let out a sigh. He knew that this should be a pollution problem. This kind of thing happened too many times, but it was what happened back then that made him "Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of well ropes for ten years."
', it's a bit of a psychological shadow.
After seeing off Uncle Onoda and packing his exercise belongings, Chiba Makoto carried his bag and set off on a motorcycle, leaving Chiba along Route 287, heading north, and then turning northwest.
Follow the map and drive quickly on the highway through the mountains, passing through tunnels and bridges. The surrounding environment also changes from high-rise buildings to low houses, and finally to undulating mountains.
Passing through a 100-meter-long tunnel ahead, you can reach Totoma Town, which is located among the mountains, but the strange thing is that the surrounding vegetation is still lush and not withered at all.
Just as he was thinking about it, Chiba Cheng drove his motorcycle into the tunnel. A strong smell of gasoline hit his face, almost suffocating Chiba Cheng. The concentration of the exhaust gas was too high. Just smelling it made him feel extremely strong.
Above.
"Is the exhaust system of this tunnel broken?" Chiba Cheng wanted to turn around and go back. The smell is too unpleasant. The tunnels have exhaust systems that blow fresh air into the cave from outside the cave all the time.
How is it possible to accumulate so much exhaust gas?
Chiba Makoto endured the unpleasant smell, regardless of the speed limit, speeding up, just to rush out of this tunnel as soon as possible. Every second inside was as long as a year. The moment he rushed out of the tunnel, he took a big breath.
Get up.
"I'm alive." Chiba Cheng took a deep breath and looked back at the dark tunnel, feeling as if he was running back from the tiger's mouth.
With enough oxygen, my brain has regained its ability to think. I immediately wanted to stop and see which unit was responsible for managing this tunnel. Call them and come to repair the cloak system quickly. Otherwise, with such thick car exhaust, it would be too easy to cause an accident.
.
As soon as the motorcycle stopped, a monster like a pine cone appeared in front of Chiba Cheng's eyes. Not only did the head grow below, but there were also two tentacles on the tail. It looked like it was a modified version of magic.
Two-tailed monster.
Chiba Makoto immediately thought of what was going on. This monster whose name he forgot seemed to absorb car exhaust. It had a very strange recipe, and...
Well, he can’t remember clearly. This kind of plot has no characteristics and is not touching. Basically, it will be forgotten after watching it. There will be no deep memory at all. Anyway, he only knows one thing: withered trees and monsters are related.<
/p>
"Fortunately, I'm here." Chiba Makoto was glad that he persisted and got the interview assignment from Uncle Onoda. Otherwise, things might have turned out to be very bad.
