In the afternoon, the national team departed for Tokyo.
The rules were the same as before. Everyone's identities were still frozen. The train tickets in Japan were based on their real names. As such, they had no choice but to take the subway to the suburbs east of Osaka, before taking the bus.
Mochizuki Chihaya followed the team. Most of the people were confused about her decision.
Mochizuki Chihaya was too lazy to explain. She knew the Chinese were not fond of her. She was only responsible for keeping an eye on Mofan and making sure he was escorting the terrifying orb.
Sitting on the bus, Mofan leaned his head against the window. He was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery along the way. Zhao Manyan was blabbering beside him. The man would become crazy whenever he had not touched a woman for a while. He no longer had the imperious aura of a young master from the Zhao Financial Group. He was just like an idiot from an old village!
"Did you even listen to what I told you this morning?" Zhao Manyan pushed Mofan hard.
Mofan was feeling drowsy. He was even more annoyed when he was woken up.
"Can you stop talking about that f * * king nonsense?" cursed Mofan.
"Something isn't right. I dreamt of the shadow under the ship that we saw in the ocean. I saw an enormous creature lurking in the ocean far away from the Shuangshou Pavilion. It even let out a cry that sounded like a dolphin, but it could travel a great distance, "said Zhao Manyan.
"Can you please spend some money and find an actress when we arrive in Tokyo …" Mofan was about to scold Zhao Manyan when he realized something was not right. He quickly corrected himself, "What did you say!?"
"I said I dreamt of the shadow that we saw in the Pacific Ocean!" said Zhao Manyan.
"The second part."
"There was an enormous creature in the ocean near the Shuangshou Pavilion last night."
"Wait a second," Mofan rose to his feet and went to the back of the bus.
The person sitting in the last row was none other than Mochizuki Chihaya. She was confused when she saw Mo Fan moving closer to her.
"Did the orb react?" Mochizuki Chihaya asked cautiously.
"It's not about that. Last night, when you went to the pavilion to send out a warning light, did you tell the others what happened in the sea area?" Mofan asked seriously.
"No, as a matter of fact, I have no idea what's going on in the sea either. The Upper Tower is a military fortress. Normal people are not allowed to go there. We won't tell anyone what we see in the Upper Tower," replied Mochizuki Chihaya.
"How did Zhao Manyan know that there are giant creatures in the sea?" Mofan asked.
"He knows? That doesn't make sense. Apart from you, I didn't hear anyone else entering the Upper Pavilion, "said Mochizuki Chihaya.
Mofan frowned and returned to Zhao Manyan's side.
Zhao Manyan realized something when he saw Mofan's reaction. He immediately withdrew his playful attitude.
"Are you sure it was just a dream?" asked Mofan.
"Mm," Zhao Manyan nodded.
"As a matter of fact, there was indeed a giant creature in the sea area that the Shuangshou Pavilion was looking at last night," said Mofan.
Zhao Manyan opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but he was lost for words.
"What's going on?" asked Zhao Manyan in astonishment.
"Do you remember the island that doesn't exist in Xixiong City?" asked Mofan.
"You mean the island that Miyata said she stayed there for the whole night, but it disappeared the next day?" said Zhao Manyan.
Zhao Manting only learned about Miyata's story from Jiang Yu and Ai Jiangtu after the incident.
Mofan nodded.
That's right, it was the island!
At first, Mofan could not understand why Miyata would lie to him, and it was such a ridiculous lie.
However, when he was on the train leaving Xixiong City and saw the island for a brief moment, Mofan began to believe Miyata's words.
"Ai Jiangtu, do you think Miyata is lying?" Mofan rose to his feet and asked Ai Jiangtu, who was sitting a few rows behind them.
Ai Jiangtu was confused. Why would Mo Fan ask about it all of a sudden?
He pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think Miyata has any reason to lie. It doesn't look like she is lying, either."
"Are you talking about the island that doesn't exist?" Jiang Yu joined the conversation excitedly.
"How boring, the island doesn't exist. We've confirmed it with our own eyes. Don't tell me the island can fly? "said Mu Tingying.
"Miyata wasn't lying, she did stay on the island for the whole night," said Mofan seriously.
"Humph, do you think we're three years old?" mocked Guan Yu.
Mofan ignored him. He recalled the situation and said sternly, "Zhao Manyan, turn off the background music for Detective Conan …"
"Oh, I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it."
"What I'm trying to say is, the island in Xixiong City does f * * king exist. I couldn't understand why Miyata would tell such a ridiculous lie. I couldn't understand why my eyes were blurred when I saw the island on the train. As a matter of fact, it wasn't even an island, "said Mofan.
"Mofan, did you forget to take your medicine today? What else could it be if it wasn't an island? "
"Miyata wasn't standing on an island that night. She was standing on the back of a living creature! The island disappeared the next day, because the creature had left early in the morning! "said Mofan confidently.
Mofan's words shocked the crowd.
The bus fell silent all of a sudden. Everyone immediately tensed when they tried to imagine the scene in their minds.
"Mofan … Mofan, please don't scare us. How could there be a living creature as big as an island? Besides, no matter how dumb Miyata is, she wouldn't mistake a living creature as an island," said Jiang Shaoxu with a trembling voice.
"Yeah, if the island was really a living creature, what would it be?" said Jiang Yu.
"Do you remember the enormous shadow that appeared under the surface of the ocean when we were on the cruise?" said Mofan.
Everyone naturally remembered, that shocking scene was still fresh in their minds … It was a scene that caused all of them to feel fear because of their insignificance.
However, their faces were filled with astonishment when they heard Mofan's words!
"So you're saying that the island that didn't exist is the … the creature that we stumbled into on the ocean …" Jiang Yu could not even speak properly. His stuttering was a clear indication of his astonishment.
"Mofan, why did you suddenly remember these things?" asked Mu Ningxue.
The incident was already in the past, yet Mofan still mentioned it. It implied that something related must have happened.
Mofan wore a stern expression when he heard Mu Ningxue's question.
