As the saying goes, a flower planted intentionally never blooms, but a willow planted unintentionally grows into a shade.
Looking at the key fragment in his hand, Dusk was dumbfounded.
To be honest, when Fangzheng first created his doppelganger in this world, his idea was different from that of other worlds. In his opinion, the main purpose of this world was to feed Frostmourne. As for what this Starseed was used for, Fangzheng had never cared. But now … how did he manage to get his hands on a key fragment?
He remembered the Goddess of Order saying that every Starseed seemed to be a personal warehouse of the Order race. For others, buying a Starseed was equivalent to buying a blind box. What they could get depended on their luck.
But … there was no use for this thing. Who knew what the hell was inside this Starseed?
However, Yu was still a little curious about it.
Then why would this key fragment appear here?
Did it have something to do with the three female ghosts?
Dusk thought about it, but could not figure it out.
To be honest, in terms of strength, these three female ghosts were only average. At the very least, they were far inferior to the evil spirits and vengeful spirits that he had encountered in the Ice Chamber Diji Village. In terms of priority, wasn't the "Heavenly Antivirus System" in Yumiyama a higher priority? But after he solved the bug, he didn't see any key fragment.
Why did it appear here?
Dusk clenched the fragment in her hand and injected a trace of the power of Order into it. Soon, a beam of light flew out of the fragment and shot into the sky. At the same time, Dusk's consciousness flew into the sky along with the beam of light, then all the way to the west, and then …
"… Hong Kong?"
Dusk was stunned for a moment as she looked at the lively Kowloon Port in front of her. She retracted her gaze and glanced thoughtfully at the fragment in her hand.
Speaking of which, among the ghost movies that were all the rage back then, Hong Kong ghost movies outside of Japan were also very famous …
Thinking about it, Sadako and Kayako were also famous ghost movie protagonists.
Plus, this world was also a supernatural world, so …
Could it be that this key fragment of Starseed was hidden on the protagonists of various ghost movies in various regions?
Needless to say, in Japan, in the master category of horror films, "Ring", "Ju-on", "Hanako", and "Fujiang", which one of them was not well known?
Hong Kong ghost movies were also very popular back then. "Haunted Night", "Ghost in the Office", "Yin Yang Road", "The Exorcist", and "Cursed Paradise" were also popular VCD stores in the streets and alleys.
Apart from that, European and American horror films were also famous, such as "Friday the 13th", "Grim Reaper", "The Shining", "Scream", "Final Destination", "Blair the Witch", "Ghost Chronicles" … many of them had even won Oscars.
And thinking about it carefully, many horror movies seemed to be from this era?
After pondering for a moment, he silently retrieved the fragment.
Of course, Fangzheng was not curious about what was in the Starseed, but he was definitely curious. However, there was no need for him to grind as quickly as before. Previously, Fangzheng's missions were time-limited activities. If one didn't finish them quickly, they would be gone once the time was up. However, this was only a leisure activity. It was like signing in online every day. If one thought of it, they would sign it. There was no loss in leaving it there.
Of course, if that was the case, he could take his little girl around the world on the way. It would be fun to have the Three Fools Wreak Havoc in the Haunted House.
Even if you go to Egypt, I'm not afraid. If a mummy appears, I'll blow it up with a pressure machine!
Thinking of this, Yu calmed down. After checking again to make sure that no fish had escaped the net, she left the ruins while humming a song with her hands behind her back. As for how to explain the ruins of the Haunted House, she would leave it to the local community and the government to handle. It was none of her business anyway.
But she had already decided that when Daisy Crimson and the others had their summer vacation, she would take them on a tour around Hong Kong.
When they returned to the office, Yu said that there were no problems, which made the girls feel relieved. But this also reminded Yu that this world was also created by the Order race, so there might be some interesting things in it. If the "Sadako vs. Kayako" game was already like this, then it seemed that she should forget about the "Jason vs. Freddy" game. It was fine if it was Sadako and Kayako, but if Jason and Freddy were to transform and fuse together, that would be really troublesome.
In the future, they should just do their own things and not create such a hodgepodge.
After deciding on the next course of action, Yu returned to the office. However …
"Crimson? Are you and Feng Shi the only ones cooking today? Where's Seishui Jiu? "
Seeing Crimson who was busy in the kitchen, Yu could not help but ask doubtfully. Generally speaking, Seishui Jiu was the one who prepared the meals for everyone in the office, but when Yu returned to the office, she found that Seishui Jiu was not there. This surprised her.
"Seishui Jiu said that he had something to do, so he had to leave for a while."
Hearing Yu's question, Daisy Crimson hurriedly answered.
"I don't know why, but she seems to have something very important to do."
"Is that so … Hmm, I understand."
Hearing Crimson's answer, Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded. After all, Seishui Jiu was also a monster. Although she worked for Yu, she did not say that she would be bound to the office all the time. It was not impossible for her to go out occasionally. Perhaps she went to Hazy Moon Island to reminisce about the past?
In the end, Seishui Jiu did not return that day.
It was not just that day. A week had passed since then, but there was still no news from Seishui Jiu.
"Is Sister Seishui Jiu alright?"
Daisy Crimson looked uneasily at the sofa not far away. Usually, Seishui Jiu would curl up there and sleep like a kitten when she had nothing to do. But now that there was no news from her for a week, she could not help but worry.
"Could she have been captured and exorcised somewhere?"
Misty Branch of the Sea said while sipping on her black tea.
"She's a monster after all. What if she encountered some exorcist or something? Wouldn't that be dangerous?"
"No way!"
Hearing Misty Branch's answer, Daisy Crimson and White Chrysanthemum felt uneasy. Yu shook his head.
"She should be fine. If Seishui Jiu was in danger, it's impossible for me not to sense it. Since I didn't sense it, she should be fine."
While saying that, Yu picked up the teacup beside him, intending to drink some tea.
But at that moment, the black tea in the teacup in front of Yu suddenly began to tremble. Then, a fair and tender little foot abruptly drilled out of the teacup and stepped on Yu's face.
"Pfft —!!"
Yu spat out a mouthful of tea after being kicked by the unexpected foot. Then, a petite girl materialized from the tea poured out of the teacup like a water fairy. She turned into Seishui Jiu and appeared in front of everyone.
"Sister Seishui Jiu, you're back."
"Are you alright?"
Seeing Seishui Jiu appear, Daisy Crimson and the others hurriedly surrounded her. Seishui Jiu was still wearing a wet white dress, but her expression was a little gloomy.
"Seishui Jiu, can't you come back in a more normal way?"
Yu wiped the water stains on her face and wiped the footprint on her face with a napkin. She looked at Seishui Jiu helplessly and complained.
"I'm very sorry, Lady Yu, but it's an emergency …."
"Emergency? Did someone come looking for trouble? "
Hearing this, Yu raised her eyebrows. Seishui Jiu shook her head.
"There's trouble … .but it's the trouble of the monsters …."
"Please tell me everything from the beginning. I don't understand."
"… ….."
Hearing his words, Shizui Hisashi nodded her head, and then she reported to Kuroto what she had experienced this week.
According to Seishui Jiu, she only planned to go back to see her former companions. From this point of view, Yu's previous guess was actually correct.
But when Seishui Jiu returned, she found that the monsters in the place where she used to live had inexplicably disappeared. Not only did they disappear, they even seemed to have been attacked.
This surprised Shizui Hisashi, so she searched all the way and finally found a group of monsters that were migrating in another area nearby. They told her that many monsters in Japan had been attacked recently and were completely killed or devoured. The monsters in other places were also panicking because of this and wanted to move away.
As for what kind of monsters did this and why, they couldn't say for sure.
"I've been following the traces of that monster for several days, but I couldn't find it. I only know that it's extremely vicious. It will kill and eat any kind of monster …."
"There are monsters that eat monsters?"
Crimson was surprised to hear Seishui Jiu's story, while Yu frowned.
"When did this happen?"
"It should have been a few months ago …."
No wonder the KOF competition was so peaceful.
Yu nodded to herself when she heard Seishui Jiu's answer. When she participated in the KOF competition before, she wondered if the Japanese monsters also responded to the government's call to not cause trouble for the sake of the competition. Now it seemed that they really didn't have the time to cause trouble!
"That's why I hope Lady Yu can help shelter those monsters …. Only you have the power …."
"Shelter …. Don't tell me you're really planning to bring a bunch of monsters to the downtown area of Tokyo? That's going to be troublesome."
Yu was speechless. The number of humans in this shop was already very small, and it looked like it would only get fewer and fewer ….
"I don't want to. If I do that, those guys will come after me. I don't want to be eaten by Japanese monsters!"
However, it was obvious that Mistbranch of Death was not willing to accept Stillwater's idea, but it was certain that her opinion was never in his consideration.
"It doesn't matter if it's only for a short period of time …. Well, from my point of view, it'll be better if I can kill that guy …. Forget it, I agree."
"I understand. I'll pass the message …."
Before she could finish, the girl in front of her turned into a puddle of liquid again and fell to the ground. The liquid mixed with the tea on the floor and disappeared without a trace.
"This is the first time I've seen little sister Seishui Jiu so anxious."
Looking at the tea on the floor, Kurenai Hidaka could not help sighing. She had known Seishui Jiu for a long time. In Kurenai Hidaka's memory, Seishui Jiu had always been expressionless and rarely showed any emotion. But just now, she was obviously very anxious and urgent, which surprised Kurenai Hidaka.
But Mistbranch of Hell was more worried about another matter.
"That guy is going to bring a bunch of monsters here? We don't have much space here. Do we have to make room for monsters? "
"If it doesn't work, just send them to Kyoto and let them live in your castle."
Yu shrugged and replied. Kyoto was Mei Xi's territory. Although she did not know what kind of monsters were so powerful, if they encountered Mei Xi, they would probably be burned to death.
"I won't let any monsters into my house."
The Sea Mist Branch firmly refused to accept this.
But unfortunately, she did not have the final say.
