Not too many out of four

Luckily the power outage was only a matter of two hours.

They stayed in the bedroom for these two hours and didn't leave the bedroom until the circuit in the house returned to normal and everything was bright again.

Of course, they stayed in the bedroom, mainly to accompany Li Jia.

The darkness in the house due to thunderstorms and power outages will not affect the cat's sight. For Zhongya Nakahara, the power outage in the bedroom is just a little dimming of the things in the field of vision, but it does not affect the vision.

Just thinking that the little girl might be afraid, he still followed her breath to the bedroom to have a look.

Sure enough, Li Jia was standing in the middle of the bedroom with the kitten in her arms, and the moment the lightning struck outside the window and lit up, she could clearly notice her unnaturally frightened and pale expression.

"...Meow." The sound was to let Li Jia know that it was he who came.

Jumping on her shoulders was also to confirm her condition. Although she was a little scared, her body was not wet from the rain. On the contrary, it was the cat in her arms that was dripping with moisture.

Zhongyuan Zhong also stepped on the thin shoulders under his feet, and as his body grew up, jumping on Lijia's shoulders was no longer as easy as standing, and he had to be careful when squatting down.

He turned his head and looked out of the window, it was clearly in the afternoon, but the clouds outside seemed to be night.

If someone was active outside at this time, it wouldn't be surprising if the first lightning struck.

It's a good thing that the circuit has been restored, at least the little girl won't be so scared now.

Li Jia kept yelling to tell them not to be afraid, but in fact, she was almost unable to stand in a panic.

"By the way, put away all the quilts in the entrance." Li Jia muttered in a low voice, and ran downstairs in a panic.

Zhong Yuan also flicked his tail, jumped down lightly and landed at Li Jia's feet, and trotted to the entrance with her.

The quilts that were taken out to dry after lunch were randomly piled up at the entrance. He lowered his head, sniffed and stepped on them tentatively. The cool and wet raindrops fell on the quilts and then soaked in after two hours.

He retracted his paw and shook it, which meant that Li Jia's quilt was drying in vain.

And the quilt with moisture can't be covered tonight, and we have to wait until the weather is good to dry it again to get rid of the moisture.

"Meow?" Looking up, Li Jia touched the quilt distressedly, and Zhong Yuan Zhong also leaned over to her arm to pass on the body temperature.

When cleaning, she wore an apron and sleeves and took them off after entering the house in the rain. Now Li Jia's arms are feeling cool, which is cooler than "Zhongye Jun" who licked and dried himself with his body temperature and other cats.

Zhong Yuanzhong also bit her finger and yanked her towards the kitchen: "Meow."

Go to the kitchen and make some ginger soup for yourself, otherwise you will catch a cold.

Li Jia obviously didn't understand what he meant, but she just suppressed the distressed look on her face, smiled and said slowly: "Mr. Zhongya, can you wait? My sister has to deal with these things first."

Zhongyuan Zhong also turned his head and glanced, his four paws stepped together reservedly, and his tail circled around his side: "Meow ow ow."

The rainwater on the quilt has been soaked, and it is impossible to dry it immediately with a hair dryer. It is better to go to the kitchen to make ginger soup for yourself.

Li Jia looked at him with some confusion: "Is Mr. Nakaya in a hurry?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also responded in a low voice: "Meow."

So serious and anxious that Li Jia must do now.

In the end, the little girl compromised and followed him to the kitchen.The kitchen of Kudo’s house has always been cleaned and used by Lijia. Ginger, onion and garlic are seasonings that cats must never touch. In order to prevent them from accidentally eating something harmful to the body, Lijia will put away the leftover materials after use.

Zhong Yuanzhong also wagged his tail and turned around but couldn't find it. He sniffed and sniffed, and was disturbed by the messy smell in the kitchen.

Under Li Jia's puzzled gaze, he lowered his head and pulled open the cabinet, got in and out, opened the refrigerator, glanced at it, jumped up and closed it, jumped into the closet and searched around, but still couldn't find it.

Where did Li Jia hide her things?

Obviously he is not good at finding things, but he can hide things so that no one can find them.

"Mr. Nakaya, are you looking for something?" Li Jia squatted down and looked at Nakahara Nakaya on the cooking table.

Zhongyuanzhong also had some frustrations and headaches. How can Li Jia understand what he means? It's not that he needs something, but that Li Jia needs ginger soup to drive away the cold.

Restraining the tail coiled around his side to lift up a little and then fall down, Zhongyuan Zhong also jumped off the cooking table and got into the cabinet again and rolled out a bottle of Coke. The red package rolled to Li Jia's feet and stopped.

She bent down to pick it up in doubt: "Coke..."

"Meow." Nakahara raised his paw and stomped on Li Jia's hand, jumped to the side of the frying pan and squatted down, flicking his tail to the other side deliberately.

Li Jia looked at him hesitantly, and slowly asked tentatively, "...does Mr. Nakaya want me to cook cola ginger soup?"

The glass-like cat eyes looked at her quietly, Li Jia looked down at Coke, smiled and said: "Yes, it's really better to drink ginger soup to warm up on rainy days."

It was not easy for the little girl to understand what he meant.

Zhong Yuanzhong also shook his ears, and returned to the position of Li Jia's shoulder.

"Brother is also outside, now the ginger soup is cooked and warm, and he can drink it immediately when he comes back." Li Jia whispered to herself, tiptoed to open the closet and dug out a large piece of ginger from the place Zhongyuan Zhongye had just found.

The irritating smell of ginger all came out so that the cat escaped from the kitchen, only daring to hide and look at it from a distance.

Zhong Yuanzhong also lowered his head and sneezed a few times, and retreated again and again because of the spicy ginger.

Seasonings with strong irritating taste are especially unfriendly to cats and dogs with sensitive sense of smell. Humans still feel the pungent spicy taste, but after becoming a cat, they can't stand the taste even more.

The sweetness of cola and the spiciness of ginger are mixed together to make warm cola ginger soup. Li Jia holds the bowl and sips to drink it, her eyebrows and eyes are drooping and blurred by the heat.

Zhong Yuanzhong also lay prone at her feet, with cat paws under his head, his tail close to his side and half-closed his eyes, the thunder outside the window stopped rumbling, and only lightning could occasionally be seen from a distance, but for them Little effect here.

The sound of the heavy rain falling was so regular that the cat felt faintly sleepy, and Zhongyuan Zhong also slowly closed his eyes, only moving his ears occasionally.

The sound of Li Jia putting down the bowl, the sound of Li Jia walking away, and the sound of her picking up the quilt at the entrance and slowly moving it upstairs...

That kid Kudo ran out and never came back, leaving Li Jia alone to pack his things.

Obviously heavy things can be moved together when Kudo comes back, but she always looks like she can't stop.

It's not something that has to be done now.

Zhong Yuanzhong also turned his head, opened his eyes and quietly watched the raindrops outside the window, leaving trails of rain marks. It seemed that the rain would not stop in a short time.

He stood up and caught up with Li Jia. She turned her head and greeted with difficulty: "Mr. Chuya?"

"Meow." Zhong Yuan called out when she raised her foot tentatively.

When Li Jia got down firmly and moved up, he went up another step: "Meow."

Step by step, he guided Li Jia up the stairs holding the quilt higher than her head when the vision was not clear, until the last step, Zhong Yuan also closed his mouth and squatted down and waited for Li Jia to come up by himself.

There are no steps anymore, you can boldly go straight forward.

"Thank you, Mr. Nakaya." All the quilts were taken off and spread out, Li Jia wiped the sweat from his forehead, and thanked him with a smile.

Zhong Yuan Zhong also squatted at the door of the room, looking at her calmly and plainly: "Meow."

He just did what he could do, and there is nothing commendable about it.

"It's still raining outside. I originally thought about washing the clothes after drying the quilt, but now the clothes can't be washed anymore." Li Jia turned her head to look at the continuous rain outside the window, and sighed helplessly.

The original plan was disrupted, so I had to find something else to do.

……

That is watching a magic show on TV.

Zhongyuan Zhong also lay prone on the back of the sofa, his tail rested on Li Jia's shoulder and patted reservedly, and he yawned sleepily.

Box tricks, ring tricks, poker tricks...

It looks like a magical skill, but in fact, there is some magic mechanism that attracts the kittens on Delijia's lap, staring straight at them.

Seeing the way Li Jia hid her feathers last time, the orange and white kittens lying on her lap would still meow and yell with their heads up, and their tails would be up and down like a cat teaser.

Nakahara Zhong also tilted his head and leaned on his paws in boredom, watching the magician conjure up strings of handkerchiefs and pigeons all over his body. His brain was not even interested in thinking about magic tricks. He just felt that magic really dazzled cats and was all kinds of things. thing.

He turned his gaze to Li Jia, and the faint fluorescent light from the TV fell on her face with a focused and serious expression.

Speaking of which, Li Jia also knows magic, right?

It's like hiding the feathers of the cat teaser and hiding the keys when taking a bath last time, but she doesn't seem to have used much magic other than hiding things.

Zhongyuan Zhong also opened his mouth and snorted silently, his body lying upright slowly changed into a relaxed posture of lying on his side, and he patted the tip of his tail.

"Next, Mr. Kazuzo Sanada is going to show a brand-new magic that has never been shown in front of everyone!" The host's excited and high-pitched voice heated up the atmosphere of the magic show, and the audience's enthusiastic cheers and reactions instantly infected the audience outside the TV , pull the expected value to the highest point.

Li Jia caressed the hand that fell on the orange cat and unconsciously stopped, leaning forward slightly to approach the TV, staring intently at the movements of the handsome magician on the screen: "The new magic... what kind of magic will it be?"

Dazzling colorful flames were ignited one by one on the fingers wearing white gloves, and they flipped their hands freely to touch the candlestick standing in front of them. Five different colors ignited flickering flames, proving that the flames in the hands of the magician were not projections but projections. A flame that officially exists.

The magician clenches his fist and puts his five fingers together. When the five colored flames go out and he opens his palm, a black flame ignites.

He snapped his fingers crisply, the light projected from above his head dimmed, and even the scene of the stage became blurred. Li Jia held his breath slightly, and couldn't help but let out a cry when the black flame flowers swayed and ignited on the stage. Sigh.

"I really want to go to see Mr. Sanada's performance live." Li Jia touched the cat on his lap, and sighed with emotion in a low voice: "It's really impossible to see the tricks of a brilliant magician if you don't watch it on the spot."

Zhong Yuanzhong also shook his ears, and turned his head to look at the girl's side face with regret.

Did she originally like magic shows?

"Meow?" If you like it so much, why don't you buy a ticket to see it yourself?

Obviously Lijia has her own pocket money and the money she earned from part-time painting, but even if a magic show ticket is more expensive, she should be able to afford it.

"Mr. Sanada's magic tour is not in Tokyo," Li Jia smiled embarrassedly: "It's just my own words, I am a little afraid to go to strange places."

Zhong Yuanzhong also understood, and patted her reassuringly with his tail.

The little girl is more family-loving, and it is really difficult for her to leave Tokyo by Shinkansen or plane to watch a magic show.

"However, I can also do a little bit of magic." Li Jia folded his hands together and leaned on his lips, and said mysteriously: "Like this, three, two, one..."

"Look, blue flame!" A blue flame ignited in the open hand, floating faintly like a will-o'-the-wisp.

Zhong Yuanzhong raised his head unconsciously, the blue flame fluttered and hung in the mid-air of the living room, and it stopped quietly in place without the wind blowing it.

The cat's whiskers moved, and he stomped on his paws to resist the urge to throw down the flames floating in the air.

It was a smell that he had never encountered in the cat's life, but it was faintly familiar. He had seen this kind of will-o'-the-wisp before.

In the middle of the night, he was tricked into going to the cemetery by some bastard, saying that the target person would appear nearby and asked him to go there and ambush him in advance. It is this kind of blue flame floating around the cemetery for a long time, accompanied by the dark wind in the middle of the night, which can scare people very much.

Of course, Zhong Yuanzhong also thought that he was not frightened, he just felt that the wind in the cemetery in the middle of the night was very cold.

Possibly squatting behind an unnamed tombstone enduring the startle, the blue will-o'-the-wisp was blown by the wind and scattered in all directions, waiting for three hours before seeing the traitor sneaking up to the cemetery with a bag in his arms.

When he suppressed the traitor and went back to the organization, he was frightened by that guy and disturbed the undead in the cemetery. The wandering will-o'-the-wisps were the undead's anger and dissatisfaction with him.

"It's a beautiful blue color, isn't it?" Li Jia frowned with a slight smile, holding the little orange cat and trying to stretch out its claws to pull it: "No, even if the ignition point of the phosphorus fire is very low, it will burn the claws."

"Phosphorus fire is a phenomenon produced when phosphine burns. Mr. Sanada's blue flame on TV should be used for this," Li Jia clenched his fists with both hands and let go, and the scattered phosphorous fire fluttered and lit up like fireflies.

She scratched her face and said with some emotion: "However, most of the phosphorus fires will appear in cemeteries in the wild, so they are usually called ghost fires."

Zhong Yuanzhong also responded in a low voice: "...Meow."

So the bastard Xiandai really knew that these things would appear in the cemetery, so he asked him to squat in the middle of the night.

There was the sound of the door lock being twisted open from the entrance, Kudo Shinichi flicked the raindrops on the umbrella: "I'm back, Li Jia."

"Welcome home, isn't it still raining outside brother? Why didn't you ask me to bring an umbrella over there." Li Jia responded with a raised voice, hugged the cat on her body and walked out of the living room.

"Officer Takagi borrowed an umbrella and asked me to come back first." But even though he had an umbrella, he was still mostly wet in the heavy wind and rain outside.

"I'm going to get towels, brother, let's sit in the living room first." Li Jia said and ran to the second floor.

Kudo Shinichi entered the door one by one and was taken aback by the phosphorous fire rushing towards him: "Wow! Why are there phosphorous fires everywhere?"

The large and small phosphorous fires floating in the living room drifted out along the flow of air as soon as the living room door was opened.

...Is it okay to let these things float around the house?

Nakahara Nakata chased him out without worry, and when he flicked his tail past Kudo Shinichi, he suddenly shouted: "Phosphorus fire...the ignition point of phosphorus..."

He stopped and looked up at Kudo Shinichi, what is this kid talking to himself?

"That's right! It's phosphorus, and the murderer used the ignition point of phosphorus to commit the crime!" Kudo Shinichi suddenly understood what the abnormality he had just faintly noticed was as he instantly opened up Ren Du's second channel.

"Meow?" Zhong Yuanzhong also tilted his head, what was he talking about?

"I'm sorry Lijia, I have to go out." Kudo Shinichi hurriedly dropped the words, picked up the umbrella again and rushed out the door despite the wind and rain.

Li Jia stood at the stairs with a big towel in her arms: "... huh?"

She walked down in a daze: "Is the brother's case not over yet?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also walked over and walked around her calf, squatted down and raised his head to look at the will-o'-the-wisps that were about to fill the room: "Meow ow ow."

Forget about that kid, get rid of these things first.

It will be troublesome if you fly around the house and ignite something.

"Ah, no, why did my brother release the phosphorous fire?" Li Jia followed Nakahara Chuya's line of sight, and some of the light phosphorous fires had already flown out of her reach.

She once again pulled out the large white cloth from the back of her waist and waved her hand, pocketing it towards the flying phosphorous fire.

Zhongyuan Zhong also saw this time that Li Jia really pulled out the cloth from the back of her waist, a large cloth that can wrap her whole body without any problem.

Even if she was wearing looser clothes, it would be difficult to hide such a large piece of cloth, right?

If it weren't for the fact that there are no supernatural powers in this world, he would really suspect that Li Jia is not magic but supernatural powers.
