Chapter 1,673 Magical creature? Monster!
"how-"
As soon as he said this, the young man was about to deny it, but he heard affirmative words in his ears.
"Yes."
The young man was stunned.
Yes?
What is it?
Is he...the owner of the stone...not human?
Or...how could the owner of the stone not be human?
The young man shook his head.
Why is he so confused?
...
"It's not human."
Xiao Xiao watched the young man's eyes open wider and wider, speaking clearly.
"...Gah?"
The young man made some strange noises.
"Ahem~"
He touched his throat.
"Not human?"
He repeated Xiao Xiao's words.
It seems like talking to oneself, like asking a question.
"...Then what is it?"
If not human...what is it?
Besides humans, what other creature could make him so mentally weak?
Besides humans, what creature is so smart?
Knowing that he picked up its stone, you chased it all the way, and you still let him return the stone so persistently?
Except for humans…
he does not know.
Besides humans, are there any other creatures in this world that can do this?
Is he ignorant?
...
"Magical Creatures."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth turned up slightly.
"......ha?"
The young man looked surprised and uncertain.
Magical creature?
What kind of creature is this?
Is this person trying to deal with him?
...
"Xiaoxiao."
Mother Xiao shook her head in amusement.
"Xiao Kong is asking you very seriously."
"I am also answering very seriously."
Xiao Xiao had a somewhat innocent look on his face.
"You."
The smile in Xiao's mother's eyes deepened a bit.
She looked at the young man and said, "Xiao Kong, since the problem is almost solved, I will leave first."
"It's not good to keep the elderly busy all the time."
Seeing the young man's hesitation, Mother Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry."
"This kid Xiaoxiao is still very reliable."
"Just trust him."
The young man licked his lips a few times and finally smiled, "Yeah."
"Madam boss, it's really troublesome for you to worry about me."
"Sorry, I wasted your time."
"Thank you."
"What a polite kid."
Mother Xiao's eyebrows are gentle.
...
Xiao's mother left.
The young man looked at Xiao Xiao.
He looked like he didn't know how to speak.
As time passed, the expression on the young man's face became a bit embarrassed.
"monster."
Xiao Xiao's opening made the young man breathe a sigh of relief.
But before the breath was completely exhaled, he felt a little choked.
"..."
Monster, monster?!
The young man opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Did he hear it correctly?
He rubbed his ears.
Could it be that the ears have been "tortured" a lot these days, so something is wrong?
Otherwise, how could he hear...such two mysterious words?
monster?
Ha ha.
He should find it funny.
In the end, he just laughed a few times.
Strange, at this time, the person who said the word "monster" should be uncomfortable.
Why is he feeling restless now?
...
"...Are you serious?"
After a moment of silence, the young man asked.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao nodded, "Really."
"妴HU~妦HU~"
The monster looked at the two humans in front of him, a little anxious.
Didn’t you just say you were going back to get the stone?
Why are we talking here again?
The monster was a little dissatisfied.
If you have anything to say, we’ll talk about it on the way.
Can't they start first?
…
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"knew."
"ah?"
Xiao Xiao's inexplicable words made the young man startled, "What do you know?"
"The owner of the stone is urging me."
Xiao Xiao glanced at the monster standing still and took a step outside, "If you have any questions, we'll talk about it on the way."
"Ah, oh."
The young man nodded blankly.
Then it suddenly dawned on him.
No questions matter now.
The important thing is to return the stone to the other person, and then he can get rid of the constant noise in his ears for this period of time.
This problem is solved, and those so-called questions are actually no questions at all.
All he needs is acceptance.
Accept that monsters are real.
Accept the fact that he picked up the monster's stone and was haunted by the monster...
hehe.
I don't know if it was because of his dizziness, but he had an unreal feeling like he was stepping on cotton, like he was dreaming.
When I was a kid, I still believed in heroes and monsters.
Looking forward to seeing them one day.
As we grow older, these beliefs and expectations naturally disappear.
Are there any monsters in the world?
There are heroes, but they are not the kind of heroes he saw in comics who can fly into the sky and escape from the earth.
Unexpectedly, when he grew up, graduated, and got a job, he would encounter...a monster?
Although it's a youkai rather than a monster...
But it's almost there.
Does this mean that he has realized his childhood dream in a sense?
The young man's mind was full of random thoughts.
If Xiao Xiao hadn't pulled him in time, he almost hit the door frame.
"Be careful."
Xiao Xiao reminded the young people.
"oh oh."
The young man sneered, "Thank you."
He gathered his distracted attention.
…
The young man took a taxi directly.
He didn't react until the door opened, "That..."
He put his hand on the door handle, and there was a hint of hesitation on his face, "It..."
"It will keep up."
Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly.
"oh oh."
The young man nodded assuredly.
He also suddenly thought just now, they were in a car, what should they do with the monster?
As expected, he had worried for nothing.
That's a monster.
How could I not catch up with the car?
…
The young man sat in the car and kept looking out the window, looking like he was looking for something.
He was indeed looking for monsters.
Is the monster following the car?
he thought curiously.
...
The hot wind blew over the pavement, and within a short while, dense beads of sweat appeared on the young man's forehead.
"This guest..."
The driver glanced at the young man in the passenger seat from the corner of his eye and looked a little hesitant.
He could understand that the guest thought the car was stuffy and left the window open a crack.
But on such a hot day, is it okay to open the windows so wide?
Aren’t the guests themselves sweating profusely from the heat?
The driver was hesitant to remind the guest.
What if the customer is unhappy because of this?
It wasn't that far anyway, so the driver still swallowed his words.
The young man didn't pay attention to half of what the driver said.
His attention was focused on the invisible monster.
...
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and looked at the young man in the passenger seat, "Kong Yi."
After he grabbed the young man who almost hit the door, the young man introduced himself.
"The window is too wide."
"The driver is very hot."
"Ah, oh."
The young man glanced out the window for the last time and found nothing.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and closed the window.
…
"Thanks."
The driver laughed and said, "I'm a bit fat and can't stand the heat."
"Ha ha."
