Chapter 63: Watatsumi



It is better to have less trouble than more. Since this town has its own secrets, I will not ask any more questions.

After all, all the horror movies Zhao Quan had watched before were like this: two or three idiots entered a mysterious town, began to test other people's secrets without knowing the consequences, and then brought disaster upon themselves.

Peter said with some regret: "Are we really not staying here? Superheroes are supposed to solve people's problems!"

"If you have pity on the people here, you could go to the Sengen Shrine on the top of Mount Fuji before leaving Japan. I heard there are supernatural beings there. You could ask them to deal with it... They're professionals, so they're definitely better than people like us who become supernatural beings halfway through, right?"

Zhao Quan sighed and looked at the young man Peter, feeling that he was a little unclear about his position.

How can two half-baked people like us get involved in such things?

It was getting late, and Zhao Quan didn't want to waste time explaining anything. All he could do now was to stare at Peter, telling him not to do anything stupid, and wait for the inspector to come tomorrow and take them away.

Because of the remote geographical location, it is difficult for the inspector to come to the town to take Zhao Quan and Peter away. He has to go through the rugged mountain roads, which are dangerous at night, so he can only come tomorrow morning to take the two away... At least that's how the villagers explained to Zhao Quan.

Zhao Quan was skeptical about this: he could not completely believe what these villagers said.

Sometimes you won’t be in danger if you don’t cause trouble. Sometimes trouble will come to you on its own.

Like now.

Zhao Quan suddenly felt a strong murderous intent, which filled every corner of the town. Zhao Quan had no intention of sleeping at all, but was always alert to his surroundings to avoid any mistakes.

Peter also felt the strong murderous intent and naturally couldn't sleep. He looked around nervously and lowered his voice to Zhao Quan, "Quan, what should we do now?"

Zhao Quan took a deep breath and made a decision: "You stay here and don't wander around. I'll go out and take a look."

It is better to take the initiative than to sit and wait for death. If this murderous intent is directed at yourself, then you will have some ways to deal with it.

Peter hesitated to speak, as if he wanted to go out with Zhao Quan.

But under Zhao Quan's gaze, Peter remained silent and stayed at home peacefully.

Taking advantage of the night, Zhao Quan sneaked out of the room. Because the town was close to the sea, Zhao Quan's condition was enhanced when he was near the sea. He easily left the room and headed towards the place where murderous intent was strong.

The moonlight shone on the ground of the town, the mournful chirping of crickets could be heard everywhere, and a faint mist filled the air. The mist seemed to have formed a soft net, covering all the scenery in the town.

Everywhere you look is shrouded in soft fog. Even the grass and trees don't seem as real as they do during the day. There's a vague, illusory feeling of déjà vu. Everything hides its details and keeps its secrets, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

"Um?"

This feeling made Zhao Quan feel a little unable to adapt. He could keenly feel that this town and village seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious existence.

This is so exciting. I just escaped from the US search by land, sea and air, and now I have to face an unknown powerful supernatural being?

Is this the safe place that those deep divers define?

Sighing, Zhao Quan couldn't express his inner irritation in words.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Since Zhao Quan is already here, there is only one way to go.

Soon, Zhao Quan sneaked to the place where murderous intent gathered. What surprised Zhao Quan was that the owner of this place where murderous intent gathered was not the unknown powerful extraordinary person that Zhao Quan imagined, but a group of townspeople.

There was a group of older middle-aged and elderly people who seemed to have great prestige in the village. Among them were the middle-aged man who looked listless and the first person Zhao Quan met, Yuri Kawashima, who acted as an interpreter.

What are they discussing?

Zhao Quan held his breath and pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation inside, but the next moment, Zhao Quan felt embarrassed.

He doesn't understand Japanese!

Looking at the extremely heated discussion inside, Zhao Quan seemed very embarrassed.

At this moment, Zhao Quan understood how important it was to know a foreign language.

When I get back safely, I will definitely learn all the popular languages!

Zhao Quan secretly swore in his heart that he would study hard to learn foreign languages ​​and not become illiterate when he returned.

The situation in the meeting was a bit strange. The depressed man seemed unusually excited at this moment. He knelt on the ground and slammed the table in front of him, as if he was arguing for something.

In the corner of the meeting, an old woman in a shrine maiden's costume was leaning on a cane, hunched over, looking at everyone tremblingly, spitting all over her body.

Among all the people in this room, only a few did not exude murderous intent, and the rest more or less had a murderous feeling, which made Zhao Quan feel nervous.

This feeling was just like the marine biologist named "Char" whom he met when he just arrived in Boston a month ago.

Although what he described was completely different from what he was experiencing now, the feeling it gave Zhao Quan... was extremely similar!

What happened to Charles led to Dagon's resurgence and the subsequent Boston incident.

So what will be the outcome of this incident in Hokkaido, Japan?

At this moment, Zhao Quan once again felt that long-lost, chilling feeling!

Zhao Quan held his breath tightly, carefully crawled on the grass, and waited quietly for the opportunity, waiting for them to leave.

It is impossible for them to stay together like this forever. After they disperse, Zhao Quan will wait for an opportunity to hold someone hostage and force him to tell the whole story!

The moon is dark and the wind is strong, the night is hazy.

After waiting on the grass for about an hour, they seemed to have finished their discussion and began to disperse and go home.

Zhao Quan also followed and walked along with Kawashima Yuri.

As for why her? She speaks English.

After following Kawashima Lily for a while, seeing that there was no one around and no movement, Zhao Quan attacked boldly, leaping from behind and knocking Kawashima Lily to the ground. He put his hand to Kawashima Lily's mouth and whispered in her ear, "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you."

Yuri Kawashima trembled, blinked her eyes, and instead of struggling, nodded gently.

Seeing this, Zhao Quan slowly let go of Kawashima Yuri and whispered, "Now tell me what exactly happened here. What were you discussing just now?"

Yuri Kawashima blinked, as if hesitating about something, and finally tremblingly said a name: "Watatsumi..."
