The sky was covered with clouds and the cold wind was howling outside.
Maya drove the car carefully on the road. After yesterday's 'car accident', she had a lot of psychological shadow about driving. However, Chiba Makoto's driver's license is only an ordinary two-wheel license, and he can only drive motorcycles below 400CC. , so she can only drive.
Chiba Makoto sat listlessly in the passenger seat on the left, looking out the window at the pedestrians whose clothes and hair were blown by the strong wind with dull eyes. He was still thinking about the devil Bihumel.
Last night, the victory team searched the area up and down, left and right, but couldn't find any abnormalities. Horii's eyes changed when he saw him, and he almost said, "Are you kidding us?"
He absolutely believed in the detector he made, so the guy with the problem must be the guy who stole his goddess. If he wasn't a malicious person, he could definitely use this as an excuse to let the police arrest this guy. stand up.
In the end, the matter came to nothing, and the Victory Team had no choice but to close the team, but Zongfang Yanming would check the database to see if there were similar accidents when he returned. Chiba Makoto and Maya did not leave until the accident scene was dealt with, because they were worried about the demon Bixiu. Mel didn't go home despite the attack. He found a hotel nearby and stayed in two adjacent rooms.
Chiba Cheng didn't sleep well all night, for fear that Bihumel would appear after he fell asleep, making him depressed now. He would yawn from time to time. As we all know, yawning is contagious, so Maya who also didn't sleep well was also affected. He took the move and said dissatisfiedly: "If you keep doing this, how can I drive?"
"Then please pay attention, this car is rented." Chiba Cheng suddenly became energetic. This car was rented in his name. After all, Maya is a public figure. If she gets into trouble, she will have to find compensation. he.
"Haha, you still know how to worry about the car." Maya pouted dissatisfied. This guy was even worried about the car, but he didn't ask himself if he was scared by yesterday's 'car accident'.
"..." Qianye Cheng heard that the tone was not good, so he decisively changed the topic, pointed out the window, and said: "It's time to celebrate the New Year."
Maya glanced at both sides of the road. Many shops had hung banners related to the New Year. Every household hung decorative pines and bamboos, straw ropes or circles made of straw ropes on doors, windows and pillars, which meant to ward off evil spirits and pray for peace. .
"New Year's Day is only five days away. It's been another year so soon." Maya was a little dazed. In the past, she spent New Year's Eve in the countryside with her grandma, but only she knew that she was waiting for the real life every year. family.
"It's the New Year." Qianye Cheng felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. Looking back at the past, he was shocked to realize that he had been in this world for such a long time. Being alone in a foreign land as a stranger always felt so uncomfortable. Hope the holidays come.
The New Year here is from January 1st to January 3rd in the Gregorian calendar. People eat soba noodles and watch the must-have New Year's program - the Red and White Song Festival on New Year's Eve.
Thinking of this, Chiba Cheng turned around and asked: "Are you really not going to the Hongbai Song Festival?"
Early in the morning, he heard the sound coming from the balcony next door. Maya was telling her manager not to attend the Red and White Song Concert, and in the end she simply hung up the phone to show her attitude.
She said she didn't have a job last night, so Chiba Makoto thought it was an excuse. Maya is now a popular singer and a must-invite guest on major New Year's programs.
The New Year is the busiest time for celebrities. They are running around participating in shows. Unless they completely quit the entertainment industry, even the 18th-tier starlet will not worry about not being invited to perform at the party.
Maya turned her head slightly, glanced at Chiba Cheng, and said, "Should I go over and perform on stage with that devil? It's better to say goodbye."
"There are still five days left, just think of a way to solve it." Chiba Cheng took out his mobile phone, flipped through the forum, and said: "Your fans are looking forward to it very much. It's not good to let go now. It will give people something to criticize."
"...You heard it."
This is what her manager said in the morning, saying, 'The current popularity doesn't mean anything', 'You can't do whatever you want', 'There are many people who want to attend the concert'. She said it very tactfully, but in her heart she didn't know how to scold her. .
"Your agent is also doing it for your own good."
"Finally, he has a money tree. Of course he wants this tree to be evergreen." Maya sighed and said, "I just wanted to sing at first, but now singing has become a side job. Recording programs and appearing in variety shows have become Home page.”
Chiba Cheng was silent for several seconds before saying, "Isn't life like this?"
Just like him, he came to this world inexplicably and became Ultraman Tiga, shouldering the unshirkable responsibility of saving the world.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's wait until you think of a way to deal with that devil and then talk about the singing party." Maya didn't want to talk about this unhappy topic. Her current life is much different from what she originally thought. She thought she only needed to sing. , but it turned out that he was recording programs and running commercial performances all day long, and he was so busy that his feet never touched the ground.
Chiba Makoto thought about it seriously, and there was really no guarantee that it could be solved. The one who went to eliminate Bihumel was Ida Jingryu's master, and he was the kind who could not learn it as soon as he left. It is estimated that Ida Jingryu didn't know much. Otherwise, I would have found the master long ago, how could I be running around all over the world?
The two of them chatted about the New Year and drove all the way from the metropolis to the Sea of Green Trees. Lucia was not brought along on this trip because the area was still blocked by the TPC. The checkpoints at some intersections had not been cancelled, and even the surveillance probes All increased a lot.
It would be terrible if Lucia was discovered. The risk factor is high, so don't come.
Under the guidance of Chiba Makoto, Maya drove from the spacious road to a forest trail with an almost invisible outline. She drove until there was no way to go and then signaled to stop. The remaining road required two The legs passed.
Maya got out of the car and glanced around. There were countless tall trees standing there, no people in sight, and no sound heard. If she were alone, she would never come to such a secluded place. Moreover, a man takes a girl to the depths of an inaccessible jungle. No matter how you look at the plot, it looks like he wants to do something wrong.
Maya turned to stare at Chiba Cheng and asked suspiciously: "Are you sure he lives here?"
"We made an appointment to meet here," Chiba Cheng answered, and when he met Maya's eyes, he couldn't help but ask, "What's that look in your eyes?"
"Look at the bad guys." Maya waved her fist as big as a sandbag at Chiba Makoto and walked forward, curiously looking at the Jizo stone statues on both sides of the forest path. She didn't expect that in this forest, There is a Shinto. If so, could there be a temple inside?
Maya has already imagined in her mind the image of an enlightened monk guarding an ancient temple. It is common sense for such a person to know about monsters and monsters, and even be able to slay demons. Then maybe he can really deal with the demon.
Just imagination is beautiful, but reality is always cruel.
When Maya saw the gray-haired patrolman riding a bicycle, the image of the enlightened monk that she had just painted in her mind instantly fell apart. With full resentment and a trace of luck, she said to Chiba Makoto: "He Isn’t he the person you want to see?”
"It's him!"
The enlightened monk is completely gone! Maya's mentality also collapsed!
