"Well, I feel thirsty and hungry now, and I can even eat you, Kato."

Ying Lili barely showed a smile. As a house girl who stays at home all day, her physical fitness can only be described as tragedy, and she has performed supernormally by insisting on getting here.

"Then you need a good set of teeth. Well, here we go..."

Kato Jue walked to the door, and when he took out the key to open the door, he stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong? Brother?"

"Could it be that the key is lost?"

"No, but the door is unlocked."

Katokaku frowned and said.

"Did the person who used it last forget it? Anyway, this is Chitanda's place, and no one will come over. It doesn't matter if it is not locked."

Ying Lili guessed casually.

She was already very tired, and now she just wanted to find a place to sit down and rest for a while, drink something and eat some water,

"Alright."

Mr. Kato thought about it, and felt that it was true. This place, including a large area around it, was owned by the Chitanda family. On weekdays, no one would come here except the Chitanda family. In this way, it really doesn't matter if the door is locked or not.

Even if something really happened, Kato Jue really had nothing to be afraid of unless a few machine guns started shooting at him as soon as he entered the door and beat him into a sieve.

Entering the yard, there was a bench on one side. Katojue took a look, and found that the chair was quite dirty. It was obvious that no one had used and cleaned it for a long time, which meant that there was indeed no one in the room.

"Let's sit here for a while. Then eat something. Besides, don't act alone. Anyway, it's always good to be careful."

He took out a picnic cloth and spread it on it, and the hygiene problem was temporarily solved, and then he said while taking food and drinking water outside.

"it is good."

The two listened to what Kato Jue said. Although they might not understand it, they must agree first.

"I'm exhausted, I'm exhausted, next time I won't go to the mountains to sketch."

Ying Lili complained, sat down on the bench, picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank it hard.

"But the scenery in the mountains seems to be really good."

Sitting next to her, Megumi Kato also picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank it in small sips.

"Kato, what are you looking at?"

After Ying Lili had a full drink, she felt a lot of fatigue flying away. Her eyes began to look for someone to pay attention to, and then she saw someone looking at a tree in the courtyard at a glance.

"I think this tree grows very distinctively."

Kato-sensei turned around and smiled.

The trunk of the tree he saw was relatively short and thick, and the branches were criss-crossed, like Ying Lili's hair after staying up all night to finish drafting. Like a small fan, it grew in a circle on a plane, and there was no pruning. The traces are obviously some kind of artificially bred ornamental species.

330. Someone (Yesterday, Part [-])

"Don't tell me, this tree is really interesting. I've never seen such a landscape tree. I really don't know what it looks like when it's pruned."

"I think... probably a Bodhisattva or something?"

Megumi Kato thought for a while and said.

"Buddha?"

"Well, with so many branches, doesn't it look like a Bodhisattva with many arms?"

"Really, then do you see that the position of the trunk looks a bit like a face?"

"A tree god?"

Kato Saku said casually.

Taking trees as gods has such a tradition in many parts of the world. For example, in Japan, the Southern Kyushu generation has a tradition of offering sacrifices to Mori Temple. Temple is a respectful name. It is also called Mori Mountain in the Osumi Peninsula. It is said that Mori Temple is a narrow-minded person. , If someone takes away or kills a leaf in the forest where Senden exists, he will suffer immediate retribution, such as abdominal pain or dermatitis.

According to Mr. Kato's evaluation, this kind of worship has a very obvious style of primitive elves, or more like monsters.

In contrast, Yabu God, as a folk god who lives in trees, has a better personality and likes to scare children. It is a god often believed in China (a place name in Japan), Shikoku and western Kyushu. Many villages will worship the haunted Yabu God, let it be the patron saint of the village.

He has encountered similar ones, such weak armor-piercing incendiary bombs and chainsaw swords, and they are generally very easy to deal with.

"Really, these branches look like hair, or arms?"

The two girls commented on this very post-modern landscape tree and took photos. It seemed that the exhaustion had disappeared.

Mr. Kato appreciates this, of course, since he is here, he has nothing to be afraid of. If there are beasts, the beasts are not his opponents. The link can summon the equipment, and with the equipment in hand, he has the confidence to solve it even if he faces an army.

Anyway, if this tree doesn't move at all, it must be an honest tree.

"Pay attention to time, Ying Lili still has to sketch."

He reminded.

"Oh yes yes yes."

Ying Lili reacted, but first took out the pen and paper, and quickly sketched a few times, so the outline of the tree was vaguely shown on the paper, which was already somewhat similar to the original, and Kato felt Can't help but admire.

No matter how many times I see it, I feel that this is a very powerful technology.

"Put some things here first, and then go there. I remember my aunt said that the viewing platform is at the back."

Kato thought for a while and said.

"it is good."

After the three left, the tree shook, as if relieved.

Going forward along the road already overgrown with weeds, Mr. Kato walked in front this time. After going around the room, he quickly found the viewing platform that Eru Chitanda mentioned.

"The scenery is really good. Auntie Chitanda said it well. Finally, I didn't make the trip in vain."

Looking at the scenery in front of her, Ying Lili became excited.

The place they came to this time is called the Jinde area, which is a hilly area in terms of landform. The area where Chitanda's house is located is a rare plain among the hills, surrounded by mountains, and there is only one small road leading to the nearby Kamiyama City. And the hill at the foot of the three of them, like a lonely child abandoned by the mountains, stands in the field, so you can see a different scenery on the hill.

There are mountains on one side and water on the other side. The water divides the mountains and the fields. At the same time, the mountains and rivers and the fields form a very wonderful golden section ratio.

"The person who designed this location must be a good architect. This is a natural and picturesque scenery."

Ying Lili has happily set up the easel, with a pencil in her mouth and began to think, Kato Jue also simply cleaned the seats on the viewing platform - this is actually a small pavilion, there are still people sitting besides the fence Place, let my sister have a place to sit.

"I heard that the mountains here don't belong to the Chitanda family, tsk tsk."

He remembered some information he had checked before, saying that there are four major families in Shenshan City. This kind of statement sounds like the Republic of China or is very fantasy, but it is indeed true. The "rich farmer" Chitanda family, and the Wanqiao family with a large number of mountains and forests, the surnames of these four families seem to be set in the novel at first glance, and they have the flavor of the Eastern Ximen Beiming Nangong in ancient fantasy novels.

The mountain forest in the distance is probably the property of Wanqiao's family.

I don't know if there will be any mountain spirits and wild monsters in the woods for him to practice.

Someone thought casually.

Ying Lili's painting speed is very fast, and her interest is also very high, but the sky is not beautiful.Soon the wind and cloud gathered in the sky, and the wind also picked up, with the appearance of a mountain rain about to come and wind all over the building.

"What should I do? The car will not be picked up until evening."

Kato Megumi stretched out his hand, and a bean-sized raindrop hit the girl's hand.

"Let's hide in the room first."

Kato Jue stretched out his hand in the same way, feeling the raindrops on his hand, and said helplessly.

Although this small pavilion can keep out a certain amount of rain, the wind is very strong at this time, and the raindrops blow in from the side, which wets Ying Lili's canvas, so the three of them had to quickly pack up their things, walk quickly across the path, and get ready. into the house.

Mr. Kato turned the doorknob and found that the door of the villa was not locked.

But after all, there were precedents before, and there seemed to be no sign of anyone in the yard, so he carried a bunch of things and went in first. If there was any problem, he must be the one to resist.

However, after entering, Kato Jue looked around and suddenly felt something was wrong.

If anything, the house is too clean.

According to Aunt Chitanda Eru, this villa has been vacant for several years. Even if the air in the mountains is better, there should be a layer of dust on the items. How could it be so clean.

He immediately stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture, and then remembered that the two girls behind him probably couldn't understand, so he turned around and said in a low voice:

"Stop first, keep your voice down."

However, the two moved faster than someone expected, and when he turned around, Xiaohui had already stopped.

"What's the matter, Kato?"

Ying Lili was walking in the middle with her drawing board in her arms. At this time, she also lowered her voice and asked softly.

"There's something wrong with this house. Someone might live in it."

Kato Jue turned back, still speaking in a low voice.

"Someone? Hiss—"

You can clearly hear Ying Lili sucking in a breath of air.

"There will be no bad guys, right?"

"In short, I don't think it's a good person to steal other people's houses. You follow me, don't talk and don't walk around."

Now the situation in this house is unknown, but it is raining heavily outside. If these two girls are not with him, Mr. Kato can naturally come and go, but if there are more sisters and friends, he has to put their safety first. a consideration.

331. It’s Okay to Have Ghosts

While Kato Jue was speaking, he quickly observed the surrounding environment.

Probably because of the cost and difficulty of construction, this mountain villa is not too big, with a floor area of ​​about 250 square meters to [-] square meters. The living room is at the entrance. There is a fireplace opposite, and some burnt firewood is piled inside. , looking at the past with someone's eyes, it feels very fresh, as if it was left recently.

But other than that, everything else looked normal, except for the lack of ash, which in itself was already very unusual.

Kato-san quickly thought about countermeasures.

This villa looks a bit weird now, there may be people in it, or someone has lived in it recently, if there are ghosts and ghosts, it's okay, if there are people, it's probably not a good person.After all, good people don't live in other people's houses for no reason.

The safest plan at the moment is naturally to take the two of them out, then hurry down the mountain and leave, report the matter to Chitanda's family, and let them handle the matter, but it's raining heavily outside, and the mountain is already very dangerous under heavy rain Even if he encounters flash floods or mudslides, it will be difficult for him to survive in this situation.

Kato Jue had an extremely strong impression and vigilance about this incident for some reason, as if he had encountered such a thing before.

What's more, the bodies of these two people are far from being comparable to his. If they get wet in the rain, a serious illness may be inevitable. If there is another strong wind and hypothermia, they will die.

And at the foot of the mountain, because there is no signal, you have to walk a long way to make a call. This distance can probably kill two Yingli pears.

It's just that if you continue to stay in this villa, it's no problem to shelter from the rain and wind, but if there are some bad guys inside, that's also a risk.

Mr. Kato can only think of poachers, drug dealers and fugitives who came to live secretly in this deep mountain and old forest.

Either way is not good.

And a large proportion of these people have guns, or that sentence, if it is him, he still has some ways, but there are two more beside him.

A certain person thought so, and already buckled a few steel balls in his hand. With the strength of his wrist, the lethality of the steel balls ejected at close range is not much worse than that of bullets. The disadvantage is that the range is shorter, the steel balls are easy to get, and they are also very easy to carry. , Mr. Kato now likes to bring some for self-defense.

"Be careful, let's check the house first, remember to stand about two meters behind me, don't get too close, and don't fall."

Katojue thought about it, the movement was not too small when they came, and there were some things left outside. If someone in the house should have discovered it, he had been paying attention and did not notice any other movements around him, but This kind of thing is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, for the sake of safety, it is better to check first.

Fortunately, after checking around, there were only signs of people staying in the house. There were bags of bread in the trash can, and clear water flowed out after the faucet was turned on, but there were also some bread and biscuits in the refrigerator. Instant food, no food that needs a fire to cook.

"The situation is indeed not right. We will go down the mountain as soon as the rain stops, and tell Auntie Chitanda what happened here."

After the inspection was completed, Kato Jue explained to his sister and Ying Lili.

No one here means that it is safe for a short time.

What surprised him and even made him happy was that both of them were very calm and restrained. They didn't scream indiscriminately, and they didn't do all kinds of slow-down actions. They were many times better than the female characters in American dramas.

Did I tell them too many strange stories when I was a child?

Mr. Kato was a little introspective, and began to quickly establish precautionary measures. The lunch cloth and supplies left outside were taken back. Since it was raining, there was no need to pay too much attention to footprints and other traces, as long as they did not leave too obvious water marks That's fine.

He looked out from some dust-stained windows, the sky was gloomy as if it was about to fall, the rain fell endlessly, and occasionally the sound of thunder could be heard.

It's not going to last all day, is it?

Rain in mountainous areas usually comes and goes quickly, but this time it seems that the pattern is different, with an overwhelming trend.Kato Jue made a few warning gadgets, nothing more than some unremarkable broken stones and empty bottles, and considered whether to check this place again.
