Chapter 1: New Year's Eve
Location: Taiwan Time: 3:16 PM
And just like that, the incident below the shi+p was teht when I personally felt that I've been in theonboard and haven't had time to react, this year's New Year's Eve officially announced its arrival
“Yang~I heard the New Year's Eve ao there after dinner?” Sitting on the shared bed and lifting up the clothes in his backpack, the five-colored rooster head issued a very casual question
“Oh, you can go by yourself I have to go to the library” I actually wanted to go below the shi+p to go to an appointuardians was very weird, the inexplicable kind of “weird,” so it'd be better if I decide to go to the appoint really does happen, at least there's still Minas and the Old Man to helpto the library on New Year's Eve?” The five-colored rooster head grabbed a flashy Hawaiian T-shi+rt that I really wanted to throw out the balcony and juoing to stay up late and then beat up that guy called Nian until he crawls back home?”
[T/N: There's a myth about a monster called Nian (year) that comes every New Year's Eve to eat people and livestock It was supposedly the basis for the Chinese New Year, since the color red and loud noises are used to scare it away]
Speaking of which, you're a twentieth century person?
You actually still believe in thatback!? Wait a minute, could it be that it really can return?
I suddenly had an inexplicable sense of horror
It shouldn't be possible for that kind of thing to return, right?
“Ziray, there shouldn't be such thing as a Nian, right?” No matter what, I decided to first ask for proof, since if there isn't, I'd sihed at at most
The five-colored rooster head turned to look at uys don't have Nian here?”
“Of course not! There's not even half a person who's seen it before, alright!?” If there was, it would have long since caused a big coht between the dinosaurs and the military would arise
Just when it see, the door that was said to be electronically locked was opened, and Senior, who had disappeared to who knohere in theabout?”
“We were talking about the Nian” Seeing Senior enter, I i the five-colored rooster head: “Senior, it shouldn't be possible to have this kind of thing, right?”
That thing is clearly only found in stories; it would be completely abnormal if it does come out!
Senior stared at : “There are”
I heard the sound of a heart shattering
“See, I told you so” The five-colored rooster head very coolly broke into a grin at me, “It's not a New Year unless we beat it until it crawls back ho exists Can soive me a contradiction?
“Even if you want to see it, you probably wouldn't be able to The Nian haven't gone to the hu time” Senior sat down on the sofa, then took a small can of who-knohat and spilled it on a handkerchief, slowly rubbing his finger on it: “But you can still see some now in secluded places in the sealed world If you're interested, you can find Chifuyu and the others to take a look together”
Senior, please believe me, I will never be interested!
Then, I noticed that the handkerchief Senior was rubbing was originally completely white for so black as if it was being colored with paint
…Senior, do you have deadly poison inside your body?
Black eyes fiercely glared over
Uh, you can ignore what I thought about, it doesn't matter I don't mind Really, I don't mind at all, thank you
“Senior, what did you catch just now?” Clearly noticing the color of the handkerchief too, the five-colored rooster head curiously opened his mouth and casually asked what I also wanted to ask
“When I was passing by, I saw so” Saying that, Senior loosened his hand, and that handkerchief in his palm directly soared into the air and was burned till not even the ash re in a school for abilities; if I'o apply to be an eco-friendly, residue-free human incinerator!
With a “kou,” I was accurately s over, and o upstairs to the a that I was just hit by a can and was currently dizzy, the five-colored rooster headit up and down every so often, “I heard that the club has a lot of performances Today's New Year Eve We can have fun everywhere”
I also know today's New Year Eve and we can have fun everywhere, because in the o into places that prohibit o in” Senior suddenly burst out a shocking sentence: “You just need to show them your student ID They usually cooperate and let you in”
…Does this co influence?
I suddenly felt that our school is actually very shady like the Guild
“The school's students frequently run into special places because of fieldwork As long as they don't cause trouble, they can usually go enter and leave” Senior toldme to enter a restricted area as a et killed by o into that kind of place It's boring enough It's better to go watch the perfor time in the adult area already, the five-colored rooster head said with a coo see the performance At any rate, you have to wait until six o'clock before you can be adlanced at my watch It was about three thirty
“Senior, do you want to go with us?” I looked at Senior, who see to do either, and carefully asked
“…Nn” Unexpectedly, Senior actually nodded
“Let's get going then!” The five-colored rooster head grabbedoutside
Hey! Aren't you going too fast!?
Co the eyes of other people, I was directly dragged up two floors, and then the legendary performance hall appeared before us Probably only a few seconds later, Senior also appeared behind us
Next to the door, I saw the naht now
It was more or less a circus show It felt quite famous, because the ad above was depicted very beautifully
“Seehtly, the five-colored rooster head told us
There was nothing else for us to do anyway, so we naturally went in
The perforic tricks and the like Maybe there were restrictionsobard, so no large beasts appeared Though there were a lot of song and dance accoic show
The entire interior was black, and only the stage area was brightly lit
The attendants shuttled back and forth in the darkness, then helped to bring us to an eram lists for our own use
Then less than ten an
I suddenly felt that telling Senior and theic tricks was an unnecessary ht, maybe if I'ician; the point is that I'd never be caught in the act, how strong is that!
And so, the nuician of the century will probably be replaced very soon
With a “pa,” the back of ain whacked by a pal so wordy for!?”
With the addition of a certain person's heartless icy stateic show should actually be very captivating
If I hadn't seen the terrifying school and sports competition before, I honestly would've felt that it was very captivating But for soe froe, actually felt that his uely seemed as if I could see where thewithtis you see are still the sa besidea e”
Meaning that I' to advance toward the Martian plan?
“I don't want to beat you up in public” With a “kou” sound, Senior put down the porcelain cup in his hand
Pretend I had a slip of the tongue…
After the perfor applause sounded below
“You guys are still playing here?” Just when the shoas about to enter its second phase, soYue had appeared next to us at so about how she brought a lot of new clothes and told you guys to try theht's dinner”
“Ah? Can't ear normal ones?” So troublesome, we even have to wear new clothes
“No, hurry up and gather in Moreeting Senior,down
Aih…Then should we still keep watching?
“Chu, Ziray, let's go” Obviously already not interested, Senior stood up, and the five-colored rooster head also bounced up Since they're going, I don't have any reason to keep watching either
After leaving the performance hall, there were still some people around outside So with noise as they went back and forth for a while
Following the stairs, we arrived at another floor, the double roo
The rooinally supposed to stay at looked like it had been occupied by other guests It just so happened that e ca and chatting as they headed toward the stairs
I knocked twice at the door, and ? Didn't I tell her to coht, with a lot of doubt
“Uh, she probably went to stroll around” I noticed that there was no one else in the room: “Where's Dad?”
“He went to the souvenir center You guys should co for the five-colored rooster head and Senior to go in, I saw that the double bed inside the room had a lot of brand new clothes spread out on it There were no shortage of shi+rts and T-shi+rts, vibrant and with so many different colors The majority seem to have a very New Year's feel to the these clothes?
“Coh for all of you; everyone has to try the new clothes It also looks good when you go to the restaurant” My round, bea flashi+er!” The five-colored rooster head looked at the very noroing to the restaurant to eat; ould you wear so so flashy?” My mom replied with this sentence
Basically, you should probably wear more formal clothes to a restaurant…
“I have my own clothes” Senior looked at the bunch of clothes spread out for a…It's better if you just obediently try thelance, and coldly snorted
“If you kids don't watch carefully, you won't be able to put them on properly Now, everyone come over to try them on You're not allowed to run about if you don't finish trying them on!” My Mom issued an absolute order, then seized the five-colored rooster head, as the closest one to her, and started co the clothes
“I can wear it myself!–”
A battle between a human and a rooster broke out over there
Then of course, our resistance ended up having no effect After the three of us had each changed into brand-new clothes and stepped out of the roo dressed
It was four, almost five o'clock
That said, Senior's and e ed colors or patterns and becaed a lot
“Ziray, you look pretty good in normal clothes too, actually Why do you alear Hawaiian shi+rts?” I turned a full circle around the five-colored rooster head, and it wasn't like I couldn't tell that he earing nor a complete set of clothes properly
The five-colored rooster head made a face at me: “These aren't normal clothes!”
“Yeah, yeah, if it wasn't for the hot pot, you would have long since ripped it apart and stuffed it in the trash can, right” I was already used to the five-colored rooster head's declarations of the supremacy of Hawaiian shi+rts
