Dou Tang suddenly remembered that Huai Yin had clearly gone out early in the morning.
Who is that? !
Dou Tang's eyes widened suddenly. What appeared in front of him was a girl wearing his short-sleeved shirt, baring her teeth and looking fierce.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded naturally down her back, and her emerald green eyes shone with a subtle light.
…………
Who are you sending it to?
In his blurry state, Dou Tang blurted out a phrase in his hometown dialect.
Chapter 124 I Don't Want to Be Human!
"whispering sound……"
The girl clearly scoffed, then raised her foot and kicked Dou Tang.
Dou Tang quickly reached out to cover his face as he gradually regained consciousness.
The soles of her feet in my hands were soft and delicate, with slightly pointed toenails. The light pink soles were incredibly smooth, and when I scratched them, I could feel the girl noticeably pull her toes back.
No, I'm not a foot fetishist!
"Who are you?!" Dou Tang switched back to Japanese and asked with a frown.
The girl didn't answer. Instead, she raised her hand, palm facing up, her sharp fingertips like a dagger, and swiftly stabbed towards Dou Tang's eyes.
Although it felt strangely familiar, since you made the first move, Dou Tang naturally had no intention of sitting idly by and waiting to be beaten.
He reached out his other hand and crossed it with hers. Then, he twisted his wrist, turned his hand into a claw, and grabbed the girl's wrist tightly. He squeezed it hard, and the girl's hand clap immediately broke, leaving her arm feeling weak.
"Ah..."
The girl cried out in pain as Dou Tang grabbed her hands and feet in two moves, causing her to lose her balance and fall completely onto Dou Tang.
Dou Tang flipped over and pinned him to the ground, swearing to the heavens that he had no strange intentions, he just wanted to control the guy in front of him first.
"who are you?"
After getting up, Dou Tang felt a cold wind behind him, which was coming from the direction of the balcony. It seemed that this guy... had climbed in through the window.
The girl was pinned to the ground by him, but she only snorted coldly. Her emerald green eyes stared at Dou Tang with considerable hostility, but she did not continue to resist or speak.
Dou Tang looked her up and down and then realized that everything she was wearing was stolen from his house. The shirt on top was his own, and the pajamas on the bottom were Huai Yin's, with a very eye-catching pink bear pattern.
Her figure was good, much better than Huaiyin's, so the pajamas she wore were somewhat ill-fitting and tight.
Dou Tang frowned.
Just then, there was a noise at the door; Huaiyin, who had gone out to buy groceries that morning, had returned.
As Huaiyin walked in, she said, "Brother, are you up yet? Should we go today... oh dear."
As soon as Huaiyin entered the living room, she froze, watching her brother pinning a strange woman to the ground... it was indeed quite a shock.
In the corner, there was a pile of dirty clothes, which looked like the girl had just taken off and put on the clothes she was wearing now.
“…Brother.” Huaiyin’s eyes suddenly turned dangerous.
Why is this guy wearing my pajamas?
"How would I know!" Dou Tang said helplessly.
Seizing the opportunity, the green-eyed girl kicked Dou Tang hard in the stomach. Her delicate skin seemed to be coated with oil, and with a slight struggle, she broke free from Dou Tang's control, flipped over, jumped out from between his legs, and landed on the sofa.
Seeing the girl clinging to the sofa, Dou Tang suddenly had a bold guess. He asked with a strange expression, "Mikazuki? Is that you?"
The green-eyed girl sat on the back of the sofa with her legs crossed, looking arrogant, her hands clasped, and she snorted.
Dou Tang finally relaxed.
Huaiyin, quite curious, stepped forward and asked, "What? Mikazuki?!"
The green-eyed girl glanced at Huaiyin, her eyelids drooping, her face showing laziness and disdain, as if she were looking at an idiot.
Seeing that look in her eyes, Huaiyin immediately recognized the green-eyed girl and exclaimed excitedly, "It really is Mikazuki!! Brother, our cat has grown up!"
Dou Tang hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Mikazuki spoke up then, her voice no longer hoarse and shrill as before, but with a cool and mature tone: "What do you mean by growing up... I don't want to become human!"
Dou Tang sighed and asked, "What's wrong with you looking like this?"
Upon hearing his words, Huaiyin keenly sensed something was amiss, turned her head, and frowned, saying, "Brother, you... why don't you seem that surprised?"
"Are you and Mikazuki hiding something from me?!"
Dou Tang immediately slapped his face.
This girl has a vivid imagination, but she's also very perceptive...
He could only helplessly explain, "That's right, Mikazuki was originally a yokai... but she shouldn't look like this. It's almost impossible for a yokai to transform into human form."
Before Huaiyin could recover from the shock of her cat being a monster, Mikazuki sighed and said, "I've been tricked. I've fallen for the evil spirit's trick."
Huaiyin pouted as she pondered, while Doutang frowned: "You mean you've actually been turned into this state by evil spirits?"
"What kind of evil spirit could possess such bizarre abilities?"
Mikazuki rolled his eyes, raised his hand to lick his palm, but was clearly taken aback when he saw his human arm. Then he lowered his hand in disappointment and said, "I was there three days ago, the night you fought Taira no Masakado."
“I encountered an evil spirit there, and something happened that turned out like this.”
Huaiyin suddenly reached out and pinched Doutang's ear with considerable force, causing Doutang to gasp.
Huaiyin released her hand and snorted. Doutang looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why did you pinch my ear?"
Huaiyin's pouting lips were so wide they could hold a teapot. She snorted again and turned her head away from Dou Tang.
Mikazuki looked at Huaiyin thoughtfully, then explained, "That night I infiltrated a group of evil spirits and found a beast demon group. Later, some things happened and I got into a fight with other evil spirits, and that's how I turned into this."
"For the past three days, I've been hiding from the evil spirits that are hunting me, and from those other beast demons..."
My companions got separated from me, and after much thought, I decided that your place was the safest, so I came here.
Dou Tang frowned upon hearing this and said, "Able to turn evil spirits into humans? You actually have such a peculiar ability. Are you any different from before?"
Mikazuki replied, "My physical abilities are only slightly better than those of an ordinary person now, and I can no longer use many of my old demonic arts. I'm basically no different from a normal human."
Her expression was serious as she continued, "That's not the point, Dou Tang. The point is... I've become human."
She touched the top of her head, then got off the cushion and spun around to show Dou Tang her lower back. Touching her lower back, she said, "See? No tail, no non-human physical features. Do you know what that means?"
Huaiyin tugged hard at Doutang's clothes, and Doutang could only turn his head away awkwardly, touching his nose, trying not to look at Mikazuki to quell Huaiyin's anger.
Mikazuki, seemingly oblivious to his own ignorance, turned around and said seriously, "This means... you'd better keep a close eye on me! This means that non-humanoid youkai could very well use this method to infiltrate human society! And even perfectly evade the things they did as youkai!"
Dou Tang then turned his head, coughed twice, and said, "So you came to find me because you want to investigate this matter with me?"
Mikazuki nodded and said righteously, "Most importantly, I don't want to be human! Human clothes are so uncomfortable to wear!"
Dou Tang asked curiously, "Didn't you feel uncomfortable when you were covered in fur?"
"Good question!" Mikazuki snapped his fingers and snorted, "So, do you find it uncomfortable to have hair? How about shaving your head?"
Chapter 125 Mighty Men's Stronghold, reporting for duty!
Nerima District.
Nerima Ward is an old ward far from the center of Tokyo. At the same time, it is also known as the manga artist district, with many manga artists, including Osamu Tezuka, coming from this area.
As a district far from central Tokyo, Nerima Ward retains a large number of old-style detached houses while also adding many new apartment buildings. As a district only a ten-minute train ride from central Tokyo, it has become the preferred place for many people working hard in Tokyo to settle down.
The area is exceptionally quiet during the day, especially in the residential areas, which provided an opportunity for the few people on the run.
Two boys, one thin and one fat, squeezed into the alley, panting heavily, glancing nervously out of the alley every now and then, fearing they would be caught.
"That's weird. It's just a little money... is it really necessary to chase someone like this?" The boy with a red scarf around his neck complained, while subconsciously sticking out his tongue.
The fat man next to him took off the white duck headgear soaked with sweat, curled his lip, and said, "It's all because of you, Xiao Qin. I was almost able to steal it, why did you suddenly go up and talk to me..."
"I was just trying to distract you, you know? That's what a pro pickpocket does!"
The boy in the red scarf spoke in a strange tone, seemingly slow and affected, which left a deep impression.
The hooded fat man wiped the sweat from his face and sighed helplessly.
Just then, another person rushed in from the other end of the alley. The person looked quite like a thug, wearing a lot of jewelry, with short yellow hair, but two long black hairs that went back in front of his forehead, and his bangs were also black.
What's most impressive is the monocle he wears on his left eye and the squinty eyes behind it, where the pupils are barely visible.
The blond-haired boy chuckled, his face covered in sweat, and ran straight towards the boy in the red scarf and the fat man in the white hood, passing between them and leaving behind a single sentence.
“Run, Xiao Qin, A Tian.”
The boy in the red scarf and the fat man in the white hood raised their eyebrows and looked at the other end of the alley.
"Damn it, don't let him get away!"
"Chase!"
At the other end of the alley appeared several delinquent teenagers who looked like troublemakers. Their hair was multicolored, much more flamboyant than the three men's, and they were carrying weapons such as steel pipes.
"Rua! Kenny, what have you done! Ah Tian, run away!" Xiao Qin yelled and took off running.
Ah Tian sighed deeply, clutched his stomach, and ran after them.
Xiao Qin even had time to turn around and mock A Tian: "Hey, we called you Duo Jian, now you've suffered the loss."
Kenny ran ahead, his movements so light he seemed about to fly, his jewelry jingling all over him. He turned around and said with a grin, "This Tian-gege is such a loser!"
Ah Tian pouted, his mouth forming a lowercase "n" shape, and angrily said, "Bullying, huh? Bullying, huh?!"
Xiao Qin nimbly leaped over a roadside fence, seemingly unconcerned about being chased by them, and asked Kenny, "Hey, where are Shuangya and Aji?"
"They're waiting for us up ahead. Did you manage to get them?"
Ah Tian pulled out his wallet from his pocket, waved it around, and said proudly, "All I can say is that my skills are top-notch."
The three squeezed into another alley, and after reaching the end of the alley, they suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, the group of delinquents who had been chasing the three also blocked the alley entrance. The leader shouted, "Hey! Do you guys even know who we are? You dare to steal from us? You're tired of living, aren't you?!"
Xiao Qin waved his hand and turned his head away, while Kenny squatted down with a wicked grin. The two of them didn't seem worried about getting beaten up at all; on the contrary, they seemed to have a sense of confidence in winning.
Ah Tian, meanwhile, pulled out his white chicken-shaped hood from his pocket and was hesitating...
Whether to wear it or not.
Xiao Qin raised his finger high, his red scarf fluttering around his neck, and shouted, "Avengers, assemble!"
Kenny, who had been grinning mischievously, suddenly broke down for some reason, wailing, "Ah, it's the Avengers again, it's the Avengers again..."
Suddenly, two people darted out of the alley entrance, completely blocking the entrance.
One of them was a boy wearing red bunny ear hair clips, carrying a baseball bat, chewing gum, and with a calm expression.
The other was a gray-haired boy wearing a slightly protruding yellow mask that looked like a bird's beak, and he was also carrying a baseball bat.
The silent boy with the red rabbit ear hair clip is called Shuangya, and the other gray-haired one is Aji.
"Shuangya! Ah Ji! Let's get started!" Xiao Qin shouted.
Shuangya and Aji exchanged a glance and nodded, then rushed towards the delinquents.
A short while later, the five men emerged from the alley, counting the money in their hands.
"Give me some, give me some." Little Qin followed behind the gray-haired Ah Ji with a shameless grin, looking like a little brat following his mother.
Ah Ji gave him half of the money in his hand, and then continued to calculate. The five people who looked very different secretly left the alley.
The five have been in Nerima Ward for three days. The other person who was with them said he was going to find help, but it's unknown whether he will come back.
That's right, the five people are the monsters who were turned into humans.
The five of them slowly walked to a bridge over a river. In the height of summer, this place would be flooded by water released from upstream, but now the water level had receded considerably, and the exposed concrete space became their temporary base.
At this time, a shed was erected on the cement open space using waterproof tarpaulin and other materials.
Xiao Qin stuffed the banknotes into his pocket and said, "Hey, not bad for today. I'm going to buy some fragrant chicken."
Ah Tian plopped down on an old chair he'd dragged from a garbage dump, yawned, and said, "I'm done with this. I'm going to go slack off now."
Kenny patted Xiao Qin on the shoulder and said, "I'll go with you, so you don't get into any more trouble."
"Rua, it's not like I'm always causing trouble."
