"W-what did you say? B-minister, he...?!"
Early next morning.
As soon as the husband opened the door with his sleepy eyes squinting, he suddenly heard an exclamation coming from his parents' room not far across the way.
Immediately afterwards, there was another rush of footsteps inside.
Because they came back too late yesterday, Xiaofu did not disturb his parents. However, they did not know what they were busy with in the past few days. They did not even know about the "terrorist attack" that occurred in a nearby street yesterday. The police obviously didn't want to spread this incident. They quickly blocked the news and made up a random reason to temporarily not allow shops in the street to open and ordinary people not to enter.
Nobita and others had already returned to their own homes yesterday before coming to Xiaofu's house. The family was safe, and there were no nightmares wandering around. The closest trace of the nightmares' activity to here was last night's attack.
As for what happened that night, Panghu, Shizuka and Nobita's parents didn't seem to know about it, but the place where they bought food was blocked, so they should be troubled.
Snapped!
As soon as the husband entered the bathroom door, he saw his father hurriedly opening the door.
I saw that he had put on a black suit and seemed to be getting ready to go out.
The husband didn’t pay much attention and closed the toilet door. After all, his father is the president and has a lot to do, so he has long been used to it.
Nobita's, Fat Tiger's, Shizuka's and Sakurai Mu's rooms are all next to each other, except for Xiaofu's room, which is far away from the guest room.
After going to the bathroom, Xiao Fu yawned and was about to go back to his room to take a nap when he suddenly found Fat Tiger standing at the door of his room.
"...Fat Tiger?"
When the young man saw this, he couldn't help but feel nervous, and then he swallowed hard, thinking when did that guy Fat Tiger show up here?
But Fat Tiger just stood there, seemingly not noticing that Xiaofu was looking at him. He turned his back to Xiaohu and remained motionless.
"Um...Fat Tiger, are you okay..."
The young man lingered in place for a long time before he dared to step forward. However, before the young man could finish nervously speaking, a deafening "Gulu~" sound came from Fat Tiger.
Xiaofu was immediately startled, but what was even more frightening was that at this moment, Fat Tiger suddenly turned his head towards Xiaofu.
…
A thin, haggard face with bloodshot eyes came into my eyes.
"Little... Husband... I'm... so hungry!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Xiaofu could react, Fat Tiger's eyes turned green, like a hungry brown bear that saw prey. The next second, he licked his dry lips, and two bear paws were about to grab Xiaofu. !
"Fat Tiger, stop playing around, I need your help with something very important!"
Suddenly, at this moment, Nobita's voice interrupted Fat Hu's movements at the critical moment. Then, he hurried forward, took Fat Hu's hand and started to walk in the opposite direction.
Fat Tiger did not resist, however. His eyes were lifeless as he was pulled away by Nobita, as if his soul was no longer with him.
"...What happened?" Xiaofu asked in confusion upon seeing this.
"It's Mu Sakurai. She has never left the door until now and she didn't respond to calls." Nobita walked at the front and said anxiously, "Now we need Fat Tiger to break open the door. Xiaofu, it's okay. ?”
"Uh, well... since all the doors in our house are made of high-grade materials, they won't be broken open so easily..."
Then, the three of them came to the guest room corridor together. Not far away, they saw Shizuka leaning against the door, still wearing a pink pajama dress.
Fat Tiger was dragged behind helplessly, his stomach growling all the time. Yesterday's dinner and four desserts seemed not enough to fill his teeth.
"Jingxiang, how are you?" Nobita came to Jingxiang and asked.
Shizuka then slowly shook her head: "Still no response."
Nobita was the first among them to get up. He originally wanted to go to Sakurai Mu to talk alone about the white thing in his body, but unexpectedly he knocked on Sakurai Mu's door several times, but there was something inside. There was no movement.
Thinking that she might still be sleeping, Nobita waited for a while. However, after he knocked on the door for the second time, there was still no answer, but the door next to him opened.
It was Shizuka. She must have just woken up. Then she heard a knocking sound outside the door, so she opened the door with her disheveled hair.
…
When Shizuka saw Nobita who was standing in front of Sakurai Mu's door and was about to knock on the door, the two looked at each other. Shizuka was stunned for a moment. When she reacted, her pupils suddenly dimmed and she was about to close the door.
Fortunately, Nobita's reaction was quick enough. He immediately ran over and grabbed the door handle. Then he explained to Shizuka, who turned around with an "impatient" face, for a long time, saying that he had left something behind with Mu Sakurai. I got on the plane, and I suddenly remembered that, so I went to ask her for something.
After he finished speaking, Shizuka was willing to turn her head and glance at him lukewarmly from the corner of her eye, but she still closed her mouth tightly and said nothing, looking like she was still sulking.
Nobita didn't know why he had to explain so much and tell a little lie to deceive Shizuka, but he always felt that if he didn't do this, it would cause a "serious" misunderstanding.
Later, Shizuka also helped Nobita try to call Sakurai Mu a few times, but still no response came out. After waiting for a while, it was still the same, and the two gradually realized the seriousness of the problem.
Immediately afterwards, Nobita tried to knock on the door, but the wooden door was almost motionless. He then thought of asking Fat Hu for help, but when he came to Fat Hu's door, he found that Fat Hu's door had been opened at some point. He then thought that he might be looking for his husband, so that was the scene at the beginning.
Unexpectedly, Nobita was just about to turn his head and ask Fat Hu to help open Sakurai Mu's door, but the next second, the door opened by itself.
I saw Sakurai Mu standing at the door, looking at the four people surrounding the door with a confused expression. Her hair was messy, and her long white curly hair almost covered both sides of her cheeks.
Just when Nobita went to find Fat Tiger, Shizuka had already arranged her hair and tied it into a ponytail. And when she saw Sakurai Mu looking exhausted, as if he hadn't slept at all last night, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked with concern: "...Jing Mu, are you okay?"
Mu Sakurai was still wearing yesterday's clothes and didn't seem to take a shower, probably because she didn't know how to use a 20th century water heater.
"Everyone, you all got up so early...yawn..."
Sakurai Mu stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, and yawned widely as she spoke.
"It's still early, it's almost noon." Nobita said, "You didn't open the door just now. We thought something happened to you."
"Ah, this... I'm sorry, I'm so asleep that I can't wake up even if you pinch my face..." Sakurai Mu said, but she still felt drowsy. Eyes open and close.
"You...couldn't you have slept at all last night?" Xiaofu said suspiciously, looking at the faint dark circles at the corners of Sakurai Mu's eyes.
"Because I have to prepare for today's test, so I made an exception and stayed up late..."
After saying that, Sakurai Mu leaned directly against the door, her eyes slightly closed, and she seemed to be asleep, but her mouth was still moving, babbling, and it was impossible to hear what she was talking about.
Seeing this, Shizuka immediately stepped forward to help Sakurai Mu up, and then wanted to carry her back to the bed, but she was struggling to hold her, so she called her husband, Fat Tiger, to help support Sakurai Mu's calf, but she couldn't. Just not called Nobita.
"..."
Nobita looked at Mu Sakurai who was put back on the bed by the three of them, and then subconsciously curled up and hugged the quilt tightly on the bed, and couldn't help but sigh.
It seemed like there was no way to ask her about the white thing now.
Later, under Fat Tiger's strong request and Nobita's helpless agreement, Shizuka decided to cook breakfast for everyone in person, even though it was almost noon.
This time, Shizuka's decision was completely opposite to last time. She only asked Nobita to go to the kitchen to help. Fat Tiger and Xiaofu were originally unwilling to go to the kitchen to mess around. After Xiaofu told Shizuka where the materials and various tools were placed, they Went to play game console with Fat Tiger.
"Nobita, bring me the cutting board."
The kitchen of her husband's house is very large, but Shizuka only lets Nobita stay with her and help her with some seemingly trivial tasks. Nobita feels that there is no need to stand here at all.
Ta-ta-ta-ta...
Shizuka was chopping green vegetables skillfully. Nobita had nothing to do and could only stand aside and watch. From time to time, he would help Shizuka lift the hair hanging down from her temples.
"Yeah, Nobita, I forgot my watch. Go get it for me. It's in the backpack in the room where I live."
"A watch?" Nobita, who was playing with the ends of Shizuka's ponytail, was confused. "What do you need a watch for?"
"Of course it depends on the time. Otherwise, if the time is too little or too much, the cooked noodles will be different." Shizuka smiled.
"Okay." Nobita reluctantly let go of Shizuka's delicate and smooth hair, then opened the kitchen door and walked out.
living room. Xiao Fu and Fat Tiger were having so much fun that Nobita who was passing by couldn't help but stop and watch for a while.
"It's so exciting to play such an old game. It's the 20th century now..." Nobita sighed, "But having said that, what should we do now? Those monsters don't know where they are. They can use What means and methods should we use to find Ayumi..."
After thinking about it, Nobita came to the guest room corridor. When passing Sakurai Mu's room, he suddenly heard someone talking.
He couldn't help but feel startled, and then looked at Sakurai Mu's door. Fat Tiger was the last one to come out just now. He was absent-minded at the time, so the door was not closed at all, leaving a gap.
Nobita was not the kind of perverted eavesdropper, but he felt something strange, so he slowly came forward, put his ear close to the gap, and listened quietly to what was going on inside.
"Shixiong...are they really...no problem..."
It was Sakurai Mu's voice. It was soft, crisp, and intermittent. It seemed that he was not talking normally at all, but talking in his sleep.
"Secret item... fusion... but this kind of thing... is no joke..."
