Chapter 43 The Sun Also Rises
Early next morning.
The sun rises as usual, and it seems to be a sunny day. The soft sunshine fills the entire earth, and there are no clouds in the clear sky.
This made Xia Ran think it was a good sign. What he was most afraid of was that he was about to take action today, but the weather was unfavorable and there was a heavy rain... It would not only affect the vision and actions, but also reduce the success rate of the plan in all aspects.
.
More importantly, it is definitely a bad sign!
There is no need to find any divination, the fortune teller can tell it by just doing some comprehension questions, just like the proposition "Why does it rain in the college entrance examination"——
Doesn't it reveal the background of the story, exaggerate the desolate atmosphere, hint at the tragic fate of the characters, and finally reveal the miserable social environment?
Therefore, if there was a sudden heavy rain today, he would definitely cancel the plan immediately without saying a word.
Izumi Shinichi did not tell anyone about the relevant plan, not even his parents. He went out to school as usual this morning. His parents did not know about it and were still thinking about continuing to strengthen the defense of the base camp.
This is not only because they lack a sense of security, but also because they need to have more information than the ignorant people outside.
Some people say that ignorance is the root of fear, while others say that the more you know, the more scared you are. Anyway, it makes sense. They are in the latter situation now. They don’t even feel safe staying in their own homes. There are only a lot of doors and windows in this building.
They are all nailed from the inside with wooden boards, and there are some mechanisms inside, some weapons are prepared, and a large amount of food is stored in the apartment building, which can give them a little peace of mind.
Especially since there are professionals here and equipped with humanoid radar...
It's not just Izumi Shinichi who wants his parents to be in a safer environment, his parents also want their son to be in a safer environment. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to convince his parents to move so easily.
If they didn't know how long it would take for the disaster of the parasitic beasts to end, Izumi Shinichi's parents would have planned to suspend their studies at home.
The same goes for Kimijima Kana, a girl who seems to have completely adapted to this place.
It was another half hour after Izumi Shinichi went out before Xia Ran and Uda Mamoru went out, but this time they didn't go towards Izumi Shinichi's school, but chose the opposite direction.
Along the way, Uda Mamoru looked uneasy, and Xia Ran was only calm on the surface. After all, although he had made all the preparations he could, he himself did not believe that there was no risk at all in this kind of thing.
.
But since it was a plan that he took the initiative to promote, he had to grit his teeth and complete it even if he was kneeling.
Xia Ran made up his mind and planned to let himself bear more pressure in the future. Although what he told was true, the target this time was originally a disaster that Izumi Shinichi could not escape, and he would have to face it sooner or later.
If he hadn't been pushing it, it's very likely that Izumi Shinichi would have had to face that monster by himself, instead of with the current lineup and combat effectiveness.
However, if you look at it from another perspective, maybe without his interference, all this is destined? There is no need for him, a superfluous person, to disrupt everything, so that the final "fate" direction
On the contrary, it is completely uncertain.
Work is work, mistakes are mistakes. Xia Ran feels that since she has her own problems, she should take responsibility properly.
However, apart from worrying that the plan would not unfold as he expected, he himself did not feel much fear. Instead, he felt an inexplicable bloodthirsty excitement rising from the bottom of his heart.
It seems that this is the bloodthirsty factor that was ignited by a certain opportunity before. In this world, at the beginning, you need to risk your life to hunt parasitic beasts. If you are not careful, you may die at any time. He also had this feeling at the time.
Feel.
But later on, because his abilities had made a qualitative leap, he no longer had to carefully hunt the parasitic beasts, but directly slaughtered them one by one, and he no longer felt this way.
Now it seems that Xia Ran still feels that this feeling is quite... good? Perhaps it is caused by the reincarnation of nightmares in the past. He seems to be very adaptable to this kind of life full of crises.
I originally thought that I loved peace, and my biggest wish was to live well in the real world.
However, it seems that that is just his own wishful thinking?
"It's really exciting..."
Taking a deep breath, Xia Ran stood on the side of the road and hailed a taxi, then left Uda Mamoru, who looked confused, and left.
"What's so exciting?" Mamoru Uda was a little confused, but his companion didn't explain it to him, so he could only stay where he was, raising his wrist from time to time to look at the time displayed on his watch.
Because not everyone can arrive at the predetermined battlefield at the first time, otherwise, it will be no different from directly exposing all the trump cards. As long as the opponent discovers that there are three parasitic beasts on their side, they will definitely further increase their vigilance.
of.
In that case, the trump card will not be able to play its intended role.
Therefore, Uda Mamoru will be the last one to rush over. As long as everything goes well, he can play the role of a surprise attack. Even if it just surprises the enemy and makes them lose their sense of proportion, it is still good.
…
…
Approximately twenty minutes passed.
On a remote road, there are dense woods on both sides, and rolling mountains beyond. The scenery is pretty good. And this is already considered the outskirts of the city, so the degree of remoteness is absolutely nothing to say.
Izumi Shinichi was a little uneasy, waiting uneasily on the side of the road. In his field of vision, at the end of one side of the road, there was a taxi driving over, and there were three parasitic beasts on it.
However, when the taxi stopped, only one person got out.
Is this the combined monster? Izumi Shinichi felt a shiver in his heart. He subconsciously felt a little scared, but he also breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously. In short, it was very contradictory...
He was afraid because he knew the details of this monster, and he was relieved because his companion's plan was half successful, and it was Miki who came instead of Goto.
"Okay, no need to change, thank you, you can go back first!"
After the parasitic beast got out of the car, it said something to the taxi driver, laughed heartily, and waved its hands. Its expression was quite cheerful and confident, like a good sportsman.
Izumi Shinichi has never seen a parasitic beast with such rich expressions. All the enemies he has seen before have a paralyzed look on their face.
This guy is obviously an exception, but instead of making him feel relaxed, it actually makes him even more creepy - so, is this really a real freak?
The taxi turned around, turned around and drove away from the area. The "person" slowly walked towards Izumi Shinichi and raised his hand to say hello:
"Hey, hello, the weather is very nice today..."
However, the high school student had no intention of talking nonsense with it. Instead, after coming to his senses, he turned around and ran away, quickly rushing into the woods behind him.
"Eh? Hey, wait a minute..." The "person" suddenly became a little anxious, shouted repeatedly, and started running to catch up. The running posture was very correct, but the speed was regular and not fast.
Not slow.
"Ayou, are you sure it's Miki?"
Izumi Shinichi ran quickly in front, without even looking back, but hurriedly consulted his right hand.
His right hand quickly transformed and mimicked, and a mouth opened in the palm: "There are only three reactions, and it is definitely Miki... Don't worry, Shinichi, the plan is going well, this is the best start."
That's good, I hope the next half goes equally well.
Izumi Shinichi lowered his head and silently quickened his pace, pushing away the shouts from behind. He didn't stop until he reached an open space in the forest, holding his knees and gasping for air.
His physical fitness is at the level of an ordinary high school student, and it is normal for him to behave like this.
In less than a minute, the "person" also caught up. It saw the forest land in front of it suddenly opened up, and the target was right in front of it, holding its knees and gasping for air, and couldn't help but smile.
Just when its line of sight shifted and glanced behind Izumi Shinichi, it paused for a moment——
Lying in the darkness there was a body also wearing a school uniform. Although it was far away and the head was obscured by a tree, so it couldn't be seen clearly, it was certain that it was about the same size and shape as Izumi Shinichi.
students of all ages.
And it took a few steps forward and saw more things. For example, on the other side of the tree that covered its head, there were long soft tentacles lying on the ground like a dead poisonous snake, motionless.
.
There was no reaction, it was a dead same kind.
"What a pity. It seems I was a step late. Have you killed Hideo Shimada?" It seemed a little depressed, raising its hand and scratching the back of its head, "Sure enough, all the same kind in the past have been killed after meeting you.
, you killed me so easily!"
"..."
Izumi Shinichi took a deep breath, straightened up, and stared at the combined monster in front of him without speaking, appearing very alert.
The other party was probably the most human-like parasitic beast he had ever encountered. He was wearing a yellow and black sports suit. He had a rich expression, could talk and laugh, and spoke in a natural tone. There was no rigid, rigid feeling at all.
"It seems that you are really difficult to deal with. Sure enough, you shouldn't believe what that woman Reiko Tamura says. What are you doing to observe? I just kill you from the beginning. Wouldn't that be better?"
The other party suppressed his smile, stared straight at Izumi Shinichi, and said in a deep voice.
"Ayou...are you ready?" Izumi Shinichi felt his scalp numb inexplicably, as if he felt the heavy pressure of hostility, murderous intent, etc., and couldn't help but said to his right hand.
"Ayou? Is it because it is a parasite on the right hand that it is called this name?"
The combined monster opposite was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"It's so uncreative, wouldn't it be just like me? By the way, my name is Miki..."
