Don't pick up your husband in the trash

◎Snowman◎

It snowed heavily on Christmas Eve. Although it was expected to snow, the momentum was still overwhelming.From morning to night, in just one day, a thick layer of snow has accumulated on the road. Looking out from the corridor outside the door, the whole world is covered in white, which is extremely beautiful.

Xuezhi was still preparing the Christmas Eve dinner in the house. Tsumeiji wanted to help, but Xuezhi drove her out of the kitchen on the grounds that "children should have fun".

Then Tsumiji was dragged downstairs by Hui to play in the snow.The two put on furry hats and gloves, put on rain boots and happily made a snowman in the snow.

Under the gray sky is a whole piece of white, and the gray-white world is dotted with the cheerful laughter of children.

It was hard to push the little snowball onto the big snowball and insert the branches that were the hands of the snowman, but the two had a disagreement on the snowman's nose.

Tsumiji said: "The snowman's nose is a carrot. That's what everyone does."

Kei covered Snowman's nose and said to Tsumiki, "I hate carrots!"

Tsumiji was puzzled: "Does your dislike of carrots have anything to do with the fact that the snowman's nose is a carrot?"

Hui took it for granted: "I hate carrots, so the snowman's nose can't be a carrot. Because he is my snowman!"

Jin Meiji felt that she was a good sister, so she didn't correct the causal relationship in Hui's words.She asked: "Since it can't be a carrot, what should I use as the snowman's nose?"

Yeah, it can't be carrots, so what to use for the snowman's nose?

The two fell into deep thought.

"Hmm... how about green peppers?"

"This won't work, it will burn your nose."

The two were silent again, and then squatted beside the snowman.

"Tsu Miki, it's so cold, will the snowman be cold?"

"It shouldn't be cold, because there are snowmen only in winter, so snowmen should not be afraid of the cold." Tsumiji said, the more he felt that his answer was correct.

Hui said "Oh", and then said nothing.

Snowflakes kept falling from the gray sky.Not long after, Megumi and Tsumiki's hats were covered with snowflakes.Seeing this, Tsumiji hurriedly took Hui back home.

The two of them shook off the snowflakes that had melted into drops of water at the door.

Opening the door, the heating in the room rushed straight in.The two breathed a sigh of relief, and then Tsumiki took off his coat, hat and gloves and hung them on the hooks in the entrance.The two shouted loudly at the same time: "We are back!"

Immediately afterwards, Xuezhi's voice came from the kitchen.

"Welcome back, by the way Hui, don't forget to call Xiaoxin and the others!"

"Ah, I almost forgot!" Fu Heihui screamed, and hurriedly took out the mobile phone from under the sofa cushion and ran back to the room, ready to call Xiaoxin Fengjian and the others.

Tsumiji stood at the door of the kitchen and asked, "Is there really no need for me to do anything?"

Xuezhi smiled back at her, "It will be fine soon." Then, she seemed to think of something, and said, "Speaking of which, Tsumiki, help me call Miss Katori, and I invite her to spend Christmas Eve together. "

"Okay!" After receiving the task, Tsumiki immediately put on the coat she had just taken off.Then he ran to Miss Katori's house and rang the doorbell.But after pressing several times, no one came to open the door.

Tsumiji felt strange, so she raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Miss Katori? Miss Katori? Mom asked me to celebrate Christmas Eve!"

There was no answer to the door.

"Hey... aren't you at home? It shouldn't be..."

Logically speaking, since we made an appointment to spend Christmas Eve together, we shouldn't be at home at this time.

Tsumiji frowned, didn't stay at the door, and went home to tell Xuezhi.

"That's it..." Xuezhi nodded to show that she understood.

When Xuezhi brought the last dish to the table, another guest she invited arrived.

"I'll open the door!" Tsumiji said, and ran to the entrance to open the door.

Opening the door, a young man in a leather jacket and a cowboy hat stood at the door.

He is Kay.

(isn't he cold?)

Tsumiki looked at him, her little head was full of doubts.

After seeing Tsumiki, Kai took off his cowboy hat, then squatted down to be at eye level with her, showing a handsome smile.

"You're Tsumiji, right? Xuezhi told me about you. Hello, I'm Kai."

Tsumiki blinked, "Hi, I'm Fukurotsumiki. Aren't you cold?"

"Eh? Not cold, not cold at all!" After speaking, Kai raised his arms.

"It's amazing, I just went out and died of cold!"

"Well, keep warm when you go out, it's not good to catch a cold."

"Hmm! I have a down jacket!"

At this time, Xuezhi's voice came from the dining room: "What are you doing standing at the door, it's so cold outside."

"Come in now!"

……

"Miss Katori was originally invited, but she doesn't seem to be at home... It's strange, I talked to her in the morning."

"Maybe it's something urgent. Hey! It's so rich."

Xuezhi smiled and said: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just made some. But there is no turkey, hey, I really can't get used to turkey."

"Mom, I want more!"

Hui raised the cup, with pale yellow froth around his mouth.Because the weather is cold, the drink for dinner is milky corn juice.

"I'll get it." Tsumiji jumped off the stool and went to the kitchen.

"Then please."

……

The snow seemed to have stopped, and the treetops under the apartment building were lit up with colorful lights, which dyed the pure white snow into colorful colors, which was very beautiful.

After dinner, Xuezhi went to Katori Ayaka's house worried. She rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one came to answer the door.She took out her mobile phone and dialed Katori's mobile number, but the phone did not ring in the house.

"It's not turned off, but no one answers it. Isn't the phone by your side?"

Although he felt strange in his heart, Xuezhi could only guess like this.If you don't see her tomorrow, call the police!

After returning home, in the living room, Kai was having fun with Megumi and Tsumiki.Xuezhi took out the brewed milk tea from the kitchen and poured a cup for everyone.The new drama of Tsuruga Ren and Mogami Kyoko is playing on TV. Today's content seems to be a confession on Christmas Eve. The male protagonist rents out the entire amusement park and confesses to the female protagonist under the Ferris wheel. At that moment, the Ferris wheel turns , lit up colorful lights, as if cheering for this confession again.

"It really fits the occasion..." Xuezhi couldn't help sighing.

"Speaking of which, Xuezhi-san, have you encountered any strange things recently?" Kai suddenly asked when Hui Gejin Miki was painting.

Xuezhi looked at Kai: "What do you mean?"

"No, how should I put this, it's just a strange thing, and it doesn't refer to anything in particular..." Kai didn't seem to know how to describe it.When he said this, his expression seemed to be quite strenuous.

But Xuezhi still understood what he meant.She said with some embarrassment: "There are often homicides in Mihua Town. I can't seem to grasp the extent of the so-called strange things."

Kay: ...

It is also strange that homicides happen every day.

Kai looked at the two children, then lowered his voice and said, "I've been investigating the matter of Butis before, and I finally found some clues a while ago."

As Kay said, all this time he has been investigating the appearance of Sambazzus.

However, the results of his investigations over the past few days have surprised Xuezhi.

"Battus, it's not from the universe."

"Or, Bacis is a product of this earth. Of course, it is not so much Bacis, but rather a... mysterious power that borrowed Bacis' image?"

Kay's investigations were not perfectly accurate.In the process of investigation, he will also encounter some incomprehensible things.For example, the mysterious power that exists in this world.

This earth is much more complicated than the earth in other universes.

Xuezhi probably understood what he meant.She rubbed her chin and said, "That is to say, Bacis is not Bacis, but what we see is Bacis. In fact, it is a kind of polymer of mysterious power. Is that how it is understood?"

"It can be said that."

But what exactly is that mysterious power, Kay still hasn't found out.There seems to be a push behind this.

"Forget it, since you can't figure it out, don't think about it!" Xuezhi stood up and handed him a cup of milk tea. "It's been a hard time. Today is Christmas Eve, so let yourself relax!"

"That's right." Kai took the milk tea, and when he was about to drink it, he heard Xuezhi ask: "It will be the New Year in a few days, so why don't Kai come here too!"

"Eh, can you?"

"Of course! The kids like you too!"

"Oh! Brother Kai also came to celebrate the New Year together! It's great!" Hui couldn't help cheering when she heard Xuezhi's words.

Of course Kay would not refuse, so it was agreed.

Kai didn't stay overnight and left around ten o'clock in the evening.

After that, Xuezhi let the two children take a bath and go to bed.She went first to reply to an email from a friend.

Before going to bed, she called Katori Ayaka again, but no one answered.

The next day, Xuezhi and the children were woken up by a police car.

Some say a body was found in a snowman downstairs from an apartment building.
