Pendulum Rider

"It has nothing to do with work." Just now, Lu Haikong saw Lin Jiayi and Luo Yaxin walking towards the broadcasting room from a distance, as if they were looking for Lin Xiwu and the others.As long as they meet up with the foodie group, they don't have to worry about the strange behavior of the previous man again.

"We have been searching in the park for so long, and it seems that we have not found any useful clues. Now we are like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"The survey data I got today said that the targets of Ghost Leaf are all tourists in the park, basically young and strong men, regardless of nationality, but the recent victims are members of the Blood Hunting Association, Maybe he has shifted targets."

"Then haven't we wasted so much time in the park?"

"There is no waste. The reason why I came to the park today is the arrangement of fate." Maybe I really came here to help Lin Jiayi, right?

"Then where should we go to find new clues?"

"It's rare for you to come to Shanghai, so just visit the park."

"But, the task of hunting down Ghost Leaf..."

"If this task is so easy to complete, I won't be called back to China, and I can leave it to other people to do it. However, the current situation is that many people in the Red and Blue Gang are conducting intelligence collection work. Isn't this It’s an overnight task, you might find some new clues if you take a short rest, but then again, which exhibition hall do you want to go to?”

Kobayashi wanted to flip through his World Expo brochure: "The Japan Industrial Pavilion seems to have a performance by JAM9 today, although I am not familiar with them."

"Then go."

When the two went to the Japan Industry Pavilion, they found that the performance was over, so they lined up at Kukulu next to the pavilion to buy two boxes of takoyaki, then sat on nearby chairs, and each of them started to eat a box. Lu Haikong almost took one bite at a time, and they finished eating quickly.

The way Lu Haikong ate seemed not to be hot at all, so Xiao Lin thought about stuffing a takoyaki directly into his mouth, but it burned his tongue, and his tears were almost scalded. He opened his mouth and inhaled straight, hoping The takoyaki cooled down quickly, and when he picked up the second one with a bamboo stick, he put it to his mouth to blow air before sending it into his mouth.

Lu Haikong sat on the side silently, waiting for Xiaolin to finish eating. He looked up at the sky, and the floating clouds were slowly floating in the sky.

The conversations of tourists came from his ears, but too many voices gathered together, and he couldn't hear any information from them, only a relatively sharp voice could be easily identified.

"ソロ, 待ってよ! (Solo, wait a minute!)" The woman spoke in Japanese, but the name Solo sounded a bit inconsistent, so Lu Haikong looked towards the source of the voice and saw a small woman He was chasing after a certain man. The man had white-blonde hair and a European-American physique.

"Is that man a blood race?" Kobayashi wanted to notice the man.

"It's a pity that we are not the target of our pursuit. I am more interested in that woman."

"She seems to be a Japanese demon." Kobayashi said uncertainly.

"In short, it's not a human being, nor a blood race." Lu Haikong said and stood up, "You eat slowly, and I'll come as soon as I go."

Hearing this, Xiao Lin was in a hurry, thinking about what to do if he got separated again, so he didn't care whether it was hot or not, and quickly stuffed the remaining takoyaki into his mouth. It was so hot.

"I'll go with you too." Xiao Lin wanted to say inarticulately while chewing his food.

The two were just about to follow a man and a woman who had just passed by, but unexpectedly, the male blood turned around and walked back. He walked up to Lu Haikong and asked abruptly, "Are you from the Rose clan?"

"What do you think?"

"You have a part of human scent on you, so you are a half-breed?"

"Well... you can imagine it as you like."

"I'm here to look for something, I don't know if you've heard of it."

"Do you regret the diary?"

"Yes."

"A lot of people are looking for it, why did you come to Shanghai to look for it?"

"My old friend is in this city." He did not answer Lu Haikong's question clearly.

"Solo, he has the smell of a pendulum." The woman just now stood beside the vampire named Solo at some point.

"I know, that's why I came to ask him about the regret diary." Solo glanced at Lu Haikong, "However, it seems that he doesn't know anything."

After speaking, without a word of farewell, Solo turned and left, while the woman still followed behind like a follower.

"Do you still want to catch up?" Xiao Lin wanted to ask.

"No need." Maybe the man named Solo walked back to dispel their interest in him.

"So what's next?"

"Go back to the hotel first." If you continue to stay in the park, you may run into Lin Jiayi and the others again.

So the two left the park and returned to a nearby hotel. Since they had no plans for the time being, they boiled water with the water heater in the room and made two cups of instant coffee.

Holding the coffee cup, Lu Haikong sniffed the aroma of the coffee, and asked abruptly, "Do you know why I went to Tokyo?"

Before Kobayashi wanted to react, Lu Haikong continued on his own: "Godfather once told me a story about the regret diary, the background of the story happened in Tokyo, in order to make me have a sense of substitution, tell In the story, the main character used my name."

△Prophetic Story△

In 20XX, Lu Haikong and his wife and daughter had to temporarily live in Tokyo because of their work relationship with the Red and Blue Gang. His wife bought a new mobile phone in Japan, and threw the old mobile phone she bought in China to her four-year-old daughter to play with. An old mobile phone loses its signal when it goes abroad, so there is no need to worry about unnecessary charges for my daughter's international calls.

My daughter seldom touches the mobile phone directly with her hands. When she takes public transportation in China, she can often see other children of the same age holding their parents’ mobile phones in their hands and playing games. So when she got this old mobile phone, Unable to restrain her excitement for a while, she ran in the living room with her mobile phone in hand, then she sat down on the sofa and looked at the mobile phone. There was still the last bit of battery in the mobile phone. With the imagination of a four-year-old child, she had a great time playing alone. Lu Haikong heard her calling her friends on her mobile phone many times.

"I'm Taozi, Chengzi, do you hear my voice?" Taozi and Chengzi are both nicknames given to them by Lin Xiwu. Chengzi is a handsome boy who is two years older than Xiaotao, and Chengzi was in kindergarten. There is a good gay friend, nicknamed Donggu, the three of them often play together, Xiaotao is like a boy, in contrast, Chengzi is like a girl guarded by the other two.

"What? You said your sister came to Tokyo too? Is it because of work?" Xiaotao said as if she was really talking to Chengzi. Lu Haikong and his wife thought she was talking nonsense in a serious manner and didn't pay much attention to it.

"Orange, what games have you been playing with Donggu recently? A game console from the 90s? It was dug out of an old box? Is there still electricity? Is it fun? Play it for me next time I come back. What? You guys? Want to continue playing? Well then, I'll call Brother Juzi." Juzi was four years older than Xiaotao, and would occasionally come to their house to play.

"Hey, I am Xiaotao. I just don't say it again. I have to say a few more times, feed, feed. Orange Brother, what are you doing now? Primary school teachers assigned the homework? Considering? Ah, I'm a genius at counting. I even taught Orange to count, but he doesn't even know that 0 plus 10 equals 0. He insists on saying it's equal to 10. What? You don't know when 0 plus 10 equals 0 ? You are too stupid. No, don’t do your homework, chat with Xiaotao for a while, it’s so boring to be alone, ah! Don’t hang up on my phone!”

When Lu Haikong was packing his luggage, he passed Xiaotao many times, and saw that she was still holding on to her phone. After a while, his own phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was Luo Yaxin's call. A rather tired voice came from the other end: "Brother Lu, have you come to Tokyo? What a coincidence, I am also leading a group in Tokyo. Just now a bunch of tourists asked me to help them carry their things. I was almost exhausted. I finally found a seat to sit down and rest for a while. Tourists have become shopaholics in Tokyo. I just received an international long-distance call from my brother. He said that Xiaotao called him and said that your family also came to Tokyo. After my schedule is over today, I'll go to your place and sit down, I really want to taste the dishes you cook yourself, Brother Lu, I haven't had the chance to eat them, but I heard from Lin Xiwu that they are very delicious."

"You can come anytime, we just came here today to tidy up the room."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Haikong went to Xiaotao and checked her mobile phone, but the phone still showed no signal, and no call records were found. Maybe the content of the call just now was just a coincidence. Thinking so, Lu Haikong put the old mobile phone Throwing it to Xiaotao, Xiaotao took the phone, put it next to her ear, and started talking to herself.

"No, I'm Momoko, this phone is mine now. Someone sent JISEKI to check? So you may come later? And dorayaki? It's great!"

At the same time, Lu Haikong's wife pointed to the newly bought mobile phone and said, "I just tried the new mobile phone and sent a text message to Luo Yaxin, and she replied to me with this content."

Lu Haikong took the phone and looked at it, and found that the content of the text message read: I just wanted to call Brother Lu. A tourist I brought suddenly felt unwell. I want to take him to a nearby hospital for a check-up. Let’s postpone the time just agreed. .

"You text back to ask what disease that person has."

"Why do you ask this?" His wife was puzzled, but she replied a text message to Luo Yaxin as Lu Haikong said.

After a quarter of an hour, Luo Yaxin replied: We just arrived at the hospital, the doctor said it was otolithiasis, what's the name of the disease?

Otolith disease, the JiSeKi that Xiaotao mentioned just now is the Japanese word for otolith, this is the second time Xiaotao has mentioned it, if it is not a coincidence, it can only be understood as Xiaotao can predict, after all, Xiaotao is a descendant of regret diary, It is not difficult to be born to be able to predict, and the regret diary can even modify the past and the future, so it is more dangerous to assume that what Xiaotao said is not a prophecy, but that she unconsciously used her own ability to modify the trajectory of fate.

So, Lu Haikong told Xiaotao not to play the phone game, trying to control her mouth.

But after thinking about it, why didn't Xiaotao discover this ability before?Or after getting a new toy today, I suddenly learned to modify the trajectory of fate when I was excited?Or is it that the mobile phone triggered her ability?

Lu Haikong temporarily kept Xiaotao's mobile phone, and Xiaotao had to help pack her luggage.

The house they are currently living in was bought by Boss Wei. Although they only come here for a short time because of work, they can live here in the future, whether it is moving or vacationing. Members live while traveling.

It took them some time to finally pack their luggage into the house, and then Lu Haikong went to a nearby supermarket to buy vegetables, waiting for Luo Yaxin's arrival.

Luo Yaxin did come over late, as Xiaotao said.When the dinner for the whole table was finished, Luo Yaxin hadn't waited yet.Xiao Tao got impatient waiting for dinner, so she watched the animation on the TV in the living room. After watching it for a while, she suddenly turned off the TV and walked towards the door.

Sure enough, after a while, he heard familiar footsteps coming from the corridor, which made Lu Haikong confirm Xiaotao's predictive ability.

"Maybe she just has good ears like an animal, and she has heard Luo Yaxin's footsteps a long time ago." His wife refuted Lu Haikong's point of view.

After Luo Yaxin entered the room, she first handed Lu Haikong a paper bag, and said, "This is the Dorayaki I just bought at Mori Koshiro's shop, let's treat it as dessert."

"Did Xiaotao call you just now?" Lu Haikong took the dessert with a look of astonishment.

"No, it's just that Sister Ying said that she heard Xiaotao's voice. Why are your questions today so strange?"

"I don't know why, Xiaotao is always prophesied by God today."

"She's a descendant of regret diaries, so it's not uncommon to be able to predict? It's better to say that she only predicts now. What did she do before she was four years old? Couldn't she be saving electricity? Then it suddenly broke out today .” Luo Yaxin gave a seemingly reasonable explanation.

After Luo Yaxin had dinner with them, she played with Xiaotao for a while and then went back to her hotel. She was going to take tourists to Tokyo Disneyland the next day.

The next day, Lu Haikong, as a representative of the Red and Blue Gang, started a meeting with the local Burning Sun Association, and then launched a one-month short-term cooperation project. Electricity, this is not solar charging, right?

Not only that, the memo on the phone also recorded their life in detail for the past month, even what happened after Xiaotao fell asleep was clearly written on it. Xiaotao is only four years old now, and she doesn't know many people. Words, there must be someone else who wrote these records, maybe someone who often calls Xiaotao.

Lu Haikong's wife felt that this matter was too evil, so she deleted all the contents of the memo.

They were just about to board the plane back to China, but they heard the flight number to Japan first announced in Chinese on the radio, and their time went back to the past. At this moment, they were at Pudong International Airport and were preparing to go to Tokyo for a business trip.

The first line was automatically written in the memo on the phone: 20XX, X, X, X, X, X hours, X, Lu Haikong and his wife and daughter went to Tokyo for a short stay because of their work relationship with the Red and Blue Gang. They were waiting for takeoff at Pudong International Airport.

△Back to reality△

After Lu Haikong finished speaking, the coffee in front of him was no longer so hot. He picked up the coffee cup and took a sip to moisten his dry throat.

"Is this a story that was told before? Can the boss of your Red and Blue Gang predict the future?"

"Godfather is the leading pendulum driver of the Red and Blue Gang. It's nothing to be able to see so far. Besides, this is just a story with my name in it."

After that, the domestic investigation plan was temporarily replaced by other members of the Red and Blue Gang. The two of them couldn't help, so they hurried back to Japan. They used the only information they had to start searching for clues in Japan.

Later, they met the blood clan Solo and the unidentified woman again in Fukuoka.
