Chapter 657: Assistance from the Red Demons
After Kobayashi ignored them, the two decisively stopped arguing and quickly caught up.
At this time, Xiaolin also asked.
"By the way, Yunyun. Have you found the target parts? Didn't you come to the Crimson Devil's Village to investigate first?"
"Ah, yes, that's right, but..."
She was suddenly speechless.
Although Xiaolin didn't expect this, he still sighed silently when he saw her like this.
It really doesn’t work.
Hui Hui was also puzzled: "What's wrong with you? Why are you being so shy? How about just speaking directly?"
"Well... no matter who I ask, they all say they don't know which part it is... of course, I've looked for it carefully!" Youyou seemed afraid of being blamed, and she immediately explained herself, but she didn't seem very confident.
Huihui raised her eyebrows.
"In other words, he came back first after enjoying himself, but didn't find any information?"
"Can you please not use that term? I've asked many people about it!"
Youyou looks very aggrieved.
Hui Hui said to herself: "For the lonely Youyou, it may be an effort, but if there is no result, it will be the same."
"I'm not alone! ...Oh, that's right."
Youyou seemed to have thought of something.
Hui Hui was slightly puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong all of a sudden? Are you trying to admit that you’re a loner?”
"No!" Youyou murmured, "So, after listening to my explanation, there are people who are very interested."
"It's rare that you're interested in what Youyou says. You've always been alone, so who would listen to you? Who is that person?"
“Why are you saying I’m making this up? Well, that person is—”
"Of course it's me."
Before Youyou finished speaking, another person answered. When Huihui heard this person speak, she looked behind her in great surprise.
“Huh? What, what’s that sound…!”
"My name is You Gou Hui! The most developed of the Crimson Demons, who aspires to become a writer!"
A Crimson Demon girl with big breasts and the same eye patch as Megumin was introducing herself in a strange pose.
Very much in the style of the Red Demon Clan.
Xiaolin had seen her before. When Sylvia invaded the Crimson Devil's Village, she looked melancholy and said something like, "The village was destroyed..." and other nonsense.
Huihui also exclaimed.
"Oh, isn't this quite a skill?! That's exactly what Youyou said!"
Speaking of which, Youyou has very few friends.
But she has many classmates.
For example, there are Gouhui, sticky rolls, shredded plums... and so on.
“Ah, yes. Every word I hear makes me tremble inside. You should understand what Huihui said, right?”
"Restoration of ancient relics and artifacts, collection of ancient materials for this purpose..."
"It's really interesting. After listening to Youyou's words, I was attracted to it."
Talk about it.
Maybe he wants to be a writer.
Although all the members of the Crimson Demon Clan are mentally ill and have a chuunibyou, she is even worse as she aspires to become a writer.
Huihui looked at her expectantly.
"Do you have any clues about the materials for repairing it?"
“No, unfortunately I don’t have any clues. However, if Huihui and the others need help, as a friend I must help.”
"oh oh……"
Huihui felt a little depressed.
Although I am grateful for her willingness to help, but...
"We're here to help too!"
“If you come back again, I don’t know what happened, but it’s an emergency for you, Megumin, right?”
Retract the premise.
It’s different when there are more people!
"My name is Funifla, the Crimson Demon Clan's most brother-con, known as a brother-con!"
"My name is Dun Dunzi. The best of the Crimson Demons... the best... what is it...?"
The two of them also introduced themselves as Crimson Demons.
Youyou was slightly moved.
"Ms. Funifla, Miss Duntonzi is here too! Are you all here to help?"
"Oh, of course. Thank you for your guidance, Xiaolin. We haven't seen each other since the incident with Sylvia some time ago."
"I am. Please give me your guidance."
"I see. I'm sorry to trouble your team for the time being."
Xiaolin and Yougou will say hello.
At the same time, he was also slightly glad that Sato Kazuma did not come along this time. After all, the two of them did not get along well.
The reason was that Yougouhui wrote a strange novel and sent it together with a letter from Youyou's father. Sato Kazuma, who misunderstood it, took her anger out on Yougouhui and tore up the second volume of the novel she had just written.
The two of them began to have a grudge against each other.
However, she and Kobayashi had a good relationship, and they later talked a lot about novels. But for some reason, Huihui forcibly took him away and did not allow him to continue chatting with Yougou.
"hehe."
You Gou Hui extended his hand very seriously and said, "Let me introduce myself again... My name is You Gou Hui, the most developed of the Crimson Demons, who aspires to become a writer!... Please take care of me."
"Please take care of me."
Xiaolin shook hands with her.
After introducing yourself, get to the point.
Some people would ask: "So, what is the actual situation? Can we find ancient materials?"
"Wow, this..."
"It looks like there hasn't been much gain so far."
Xiaolin's words made Youyou lower her head in shame.
Pat her on the shoulder.
"Well, I don't think it's that easy to find."
"Oh? So Xiaolin, what are your plans next?"
"I'll ask the Crimson Demons again. If that doesn't work, I'll just investigate the ruins."
Xiaolin shook his head.
Although he said that, he didn't think asking would yield any results, and it would be better to just investigate the ruins directly.
"Investigating the ruins is..."
"That mysterious facility?"
"Ah, that might be my destiny indeed."
It seems that he would agree to investigate the ruins, or perhaps this was the only option from the beginning.
"Anyway, we can only do our best."
Xiaolin scratched his head and asked his companions behind him, "Aqua and Darkness, are you two okay?"
"Ah, let's go explore first."
"Eh? Start now? I want to rest now."
This guy……
Darkness agreed readily, and as expected, the stupid goddess clamored to rest.
Xiaolin rubbed his forehead.
"Please be patient for a while. We need to investigate first."
"Then I'll go check out the school."
Huihui immediately said, “Anyway, let’s split up and explore before dark, and then meet at my house. Please.”
"Okay, let's split up."
Xiaolin also separated from them.
He took Ryuzi for a stroll in the village, asked many of the Crimson Demons who came and went, and then came to Huihui's house in the evening.
In the evening, Huihui came back.
"Sorry for the wait, everyone. What are the results of the investigation?"
"Like Youyou said, there's no special information."
"It's the same here, no results."
Darkness and Yougouhui both shook their heads slightly, with helpless expressions on their faces.
Xiao Lin also sighed slightly.
"It's not working on my end either. As expected, it seems like no one knows about the Crimson Demon Clan."
"That means we can only investigate the ruins?"
Aqua said so.
Xiaolin nodded and said, "Well, that's it. Let's start investigating the ruins tomorrow..."
"I see. I'll come back tomorrow."
"I'll take my leave now. I hope I can find you tomorrow."
Youyou and Yougou said hello and left.
Yougou originally lived in the village. Although Youyou was a member of the team, her home was also here, so they would not live in Huihui's house.
After a while.
Huihui's father, Piao Saburo, and Weiwei came back. After hearing the reason why they came to the Crimson Devil's Village, their expressions were slightly stunned.
"...Hmm, so Xiaolin is now suspected of subversion of the state. He has pawned his equipment and his savings are basically zero..."
“Haha… well, that’s about right.”
"stare……"
how to say.
This father has such a sharp look in his eyes.
Xiaolin felt very uncomfortable, as if ants were crawling all over his body!
It's like looking at a useless son-in-law.
“…Meihui, your father is staring at me fiercely!”
Xiaolin had no choice but to ask his companions for help.
Huihui also faced Piao Saburo very forcefully, stood in front of him and said: "Don't be like this, even if this is the case, you are still my companion after all."
"Good or bad?"
"Because I know it's a false accusation, I'm working hard to clear my name. Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Huihui was speaking well of him.
He had always been the one causing the trouble and had to clean up the mess, but now Huihui was supporting him so much that Xiaolin was so moved that he almost cried.
When Piao Sanlang heard his daughter say this, he nodded slightly.
“Well, since Huihui has said so, I won’t say anything…”
Apparently he was let off.
the other side.
"Come and watch carefully. Now take out any match from the matchbox!"
Aqua is performing a talent show.
Wait for me a moment.
Taking matches out of a matchbox, what's the point of showing it? Stop joking, you're trying to fool the kids!
Just as Kobayashi was thinking this, Aqua poured out tons of matches from the matchbox.
Hello, is this true?
Is this goddess-level talent?
"Wow! The blue-haired sister is so awesome!"
Huihui's sister Mimi cheered.
“…Ahem, ahem.”
Piao Saburo seemed to be fascinated by it. He coughed pretentiously and said, "Anyway, you can stay at my house until you find the materials to repair it."
"Thank you very much."
"But, I didn't expect that Mr. Kobayashi's hundreds of millions of Eris would be gone just like that..."
"No, that..."
Xiaolin pulled the corner of his mouth and whispered to his teammates: "Hey, Huihui, help me."
"This is a common occurrence, please don't take it seriously."
Huihui didn't seem to be making excuses for him.
"By the way, compared to this, father, have you seen any repair materials near the ruins? Palm-sized metal pieces with tiny patterns on them, something like that."
Xiao Lin also looked at him expectantly.
Although Huihui's father, Hyo Saburo, made unreliable magic tools, he could be considered a magic tool maker, so he should know this...
"A palm-sized piece of metal? There are tiny patterns on it? Could it be..."
"Eh? Did you know that?!"
"Please, please tell me! Where did you see that piece of metal?"
Kobayashi and Huihui asked with a little excitement.
Piao Sanlang had a slightly strange expression on his face and said, "Where did you see it..."
He looked to the other side.
Aqua is playing with Mimi.
And this time——
Mimi said happily, "Big sister with blue hair! You showed me something interesting, let me show you my treasure!"
"treasure?"
"Yeah, I found it in that mysterious facility! This, isn't it beautiful? It's my treasure!"
As Aqua looked incredulous, Mimi took out a prop.
There are tiny patterns on the palm-sized metal piece.
"...Ah."
That’s right, these are the ancient materials they came to the Red Devil’s Village to find!
----
Huihui's home.
Xiao Lin said humbly to the little Loli: "Please! You must give the treasure to me!"
"do not want!"
Mimi refused flatly.
Darkness also pleaded, “Can you help me? I’m not very good at it right now, but I’ll prepare a thank-you gift.”
"do not want!"
Mimi refused again.
Aqua beguiled, "I say, let me show you something more interesting. If you like it, how about you give it to us?"
"Oh, really?"
Mimi looked a little interested.
Just when Xiaolin thought it was stable, she hesitated for a long time and finally shook the support.
“…But, but no!”
"Aqua's words are the most effective."
Huihui was slightly surprised.
Kobayashi scratched his head and looked at Piao Sanlang who looked calm and composed.
"Mmmmm... this is really hard to deal with, your child. ... If we keep doing this, they won't give it to us, wouldn't it be better to just snatch it away?"
"Stop it! How can you use force on a child?"
Darkness stopped him.
Hui Hui persuaded her emotionally and logically, “Xiaomi, please. The sisters need this anyway, can you give it to us?”
"Eh? No matter how much my sister begs me, this is still my treasure..."
"Is there no way?"
"Um……"
After all, my sister is the most useful.
Among the several people's persuasion, Huihui's was the most effective.
Mimi thought for a while.
"...Then, just let me see your handsome side."
"Eh?"
"I want to see the fireworks again. Because my sister looks the coolest when she's firing!"
"All right! Then, right away—"
Huihui was about to raise her staff.
Darkness quickly held her down and said, “Wait a minute, Megumin. If we start bombing here, we’ll lose our home!”
“——Oh, yeah. Then, how about we go outside the village tomorrow?” Huihui looked at Mimi and asked, “Is that ok, Mimi?”
"Yeah! I'm looking forward to it!"
Mimi smiled widely.
midnight.
Huihui came over stealthily, and Xiaolin thought she was going to attack at night, but afterwards she took Xiaolin to another room.
"Okay, time to talk about how to use explosion magic."
“…Eh, what?”
“Xiaolin, have you forgotten that Megumin can’t use explosion magic now?”
Aqua said this as a matter of course.
Xiao Lin blinked.
Damn it, I forgot!
