Chapter 49 Social Death vs. Real Death
One minute ago.
After Conan finished singing a song, he felt relaxed all over.
In the past, on such occasions, he would always be deprived of the mic before he could sing more than a few lines.
But today, perhaps because he was just a kid, others did not discourage his enthusiasm.
Therefore, it was not until the end of the song that Conan realized that the atmosphere in the KTV box was not right.
——The light in the eyes of the others had completely disappeared, and they sat in their seats like stone statues. When he finished singing, no one applauded him.
"..." Conan was silent for a moment, put down the microphone with a guilty look, slipped back to his seat, and waited for others to wake up from petrification.
…
The light in the KTV box is very dim.
Conan walked to the sofa and then remembered that his seat was occupied by Suzuki Sonoko.
However, at this time, as he got closer, Conan discovered something else unusual - there was actually a living creature in the box.
——Although Jiang Xia didn't applaud, he didn't stand there in a daze either. Instead, he was sitting on the sofa very calmly, peeling melon seeds out of boredom.
Conan was suddenly a little embarrassed, and asked for something to talk about: "Does it sound good?"
Jiang Xia didn't react at all and didn't even look at him.
"……?"
Conan gradually felt something was not right, so he wanted to reach out and pat him to remind Jiang Xia to come back to his senses.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Jiang Xia grabbed it with a strong reaction and threw him onto the sofa.
…
Conan was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he was horrified - no matter how you look at it, this was like Jiang Xia's prelude to hitting someone!
His head buzzed, and he was about to shout "Xiaolan, help me!"
But, before that.
Jiang Xia held the ashtray and looked at him for a moment, as if he recognized him. He released his hand and put the ashtray down as if nothing had happened.
Conan: "..." I felt like I was on the brink of death just now...
He breathed a sigh of relief and got up from the sofa.
At the same time, he secretly thought: Jiang Xia seems to be a little strange - it's as if he can't hear anything. But just now, when he talked to Jiang Xia, his voice was obviously very loud and it was not covered by the music.
Compare the current state of the others with Jiang Xia's calm reaction...
Conan suddenly remembered something and his face turned pale.
Could it be that Jiang Xia is...
Was he deafened by his singing? ?
…
Conan: “…”
If you think about it carefully, there is actually a scientific reason for this: for example, his singing broke the lower limit of human endurance, so it stimulated some of Jiang Xia’s self-protection mechanisms...
Conan gradually began to feel guilty.
However, he also thought hopefully: Jiang Xia didn't hear what he said just now, or he might just be distracted.
To confirm, Conan raised his voice and asked again, "Well, how was my singing just now?"
…
Ten seconds ago.
After Jiang Xia found that Conan stopped singing, he recalled the ghost fetus into the seal and at the same time took back his own hearing.
But the KTV box is very noisy and the music is loud.
Jiang Xia had just switched from the quiet streets and was not used to it. He only vaguely heard the second half of Conan's sentence, "How is XXX?"
"..." Jiang Xia also realized that his reaction just now was not right.
Based on Conan's observation skills, Jiang Xia thought that Conan was probably asking him "how is your hearing?"
So he nodded calmly, indicating that he would not be defeated by the singing: "It's good."
Conan: “…”
It's over.
He certainly didn't make people deaf.
...But he seemed to make people stupid.
Conan's conscience trembled.
He touched his bank card and suggested with a heartache: "...why don't you go to the hospital first?"
Jiang Xia: “?”
…
When two people are talking at cross purposes.
Because Conan stopped singing, the others also thawed one after another.
"Hospital?" The first person to regain the ability to move was actually Tatsuya Kimura.
He was obviously drunk and laughed strangely: "If you want to go, remember to bring Yamada with you."
He was referring to the big guy next to him: "Take him to get his IQ tested - he's so tall for nothing, but he's actually like a kid. He can't do anything when I'm not around, what a loser!"
As he spoke, Kimura Tatsuya selected a nursery rhyme and said to the big guy sarcastically, "Go sing it, it's the song that suits you best!"
In the box, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone except Tatsuya Kimura felt a little awkward.
...But there was one ghost who didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he was quite happy.
Xiaobai poked his head out from behind Jiang Xia, looked at Tatsuya Kimura, then at Mari Terahara, ready to make a move.
Jiang Xia looked down at it: Is this the matchmaker desire buried in his bones exploding...
Come to think of it, he clearly didn't tell Xiaobai about the spoilers, but Xiaobai was able to see that the relationship between Kimura Tatsuya and Terahara Mari was unusual... It also has the function of detecting secret crushes?
This is good, it can be used as a cp detector.
If you meet someone difficult to deal with in the future, find out the person they have a crush on and kidnap him as a hostage...
Xiaobai suddenly felt a chill on his back, and had a bad feeling that the pink world was being targeted by evil forces. He sat up vigilantly and looked around.
Jiang Xia had a stern look on his face. He rubbed it as if nothing had happened, and when Xiaobai looked at him, he gave it an encouraging look.
——According to the current situation, if you want to get the high-level murderous aura from Mari Terahara, letting Xiaobai perform a "forced confession" skill may be the easiest way.
…
After mocking the big guy, Tatsuya Kimura mocked all his acquaintances.
Tatsuya Kimura is about to leave the band, so he wants to use this method to point out the shortcomings of the members and let them become self-reliant and strong.
Of course, as usual, Mari Terahara is his main target of ridicule.
After a round of ridicule, it was almost time for the party to end. Kimura Tatsuya had other work to do.
He was just about to leave, but at this moment, the prelude of a song suddenly sounded from the speakers - "Blood-Red Venus".
This is a song by Tatsuya Kimura, and he has sung it many times in his concerts.
Tatsuya Kimura, who was drunk, suddenly became interested and wanted to finish singing before leaving.
He strode to the small singing stage in the box, threw off his coat casually, and began to sing and dance passionately.
…
A few meters away, Mari Terahara stood at the door, watching the scene with complicated eyes.
She wanted to poison Tatsuya Kimura.
She had smeared the deadly potassium cyanide on the elbows of Kimura Tatsuya's clothes. Now, when Kimura Tatsuya jumped down with a set of movements, the potassium cyanide had already stained his dominant hand - when Kimura Tatsuya eats later, he will naturally swallow the poison and "commit suicide" by taking poison.
This song, "Blood Red Venus", will be Tatsuya Kimura's last song.
Mari Terahara looked at it reluctantly for a while.
When the interlude was playing, she made an excuse to make a phone call and turned to walk outside.
On the one hand, she needed to reduce her suspicion of poisoning. On the other hand, she was also worried that if she stayed in the box, she would be unable to resist and terminate the plan.
Tatsuya Kimura immediately noticed her movements.
It's just the interlude of the song, no lyrics are needed.
He looked at Mari Terahara's back, feeling a little angry, and the first thing he wanted to say was, "You ugly girl really don't deserve to listen to my songs!"
However, when his upper and lower lips touched, what came out was an affectionate: "Mari! I love you!!!"
Jiang Xia: “…”
He glanced at Xiaobai who was clapping excitedly beside him.
…I shouldn’t always let it watch mindless pure love dramas. I should watch more other things in the future to supplement my love confession vocabulary. This “I love you” is really a bit old-fashioned.
However, it turns out that this old-fashioned routine is actually quite useful.
When Mari Terahara heard that, her eyes widened in shock and she stood there in a daze.
Everyone else in the box was also stunned.
Among them is Tatsuya Kimura.
“…”
Kimura Tatsuya's face flushed red. He never thought that he would say what was in his heart: ... He must have drunk too much! As expected, drunkenness leads to mistakes!
Kimura Tatsuya panicked for a few seconds, then managed to come to his senses. He wanted to add a scathing remark to save his face.
But today, his mouth seemed to not obey him.
What he wanted to say was "ugly", but when he opened his mouth, he made a more detailed confession:
"I've liked you for many years! I invited you to be my agent because I wanted to see you all the time. I like you no matter what you are like!"
When Tatsuya Kimura heard his own words, his face turned red and white, and he was filled with shame and anger.
However, he continued, "But I didn't expect that you would get plastic surgery because of my invitation. I don't like you to change and sacrifice for me. Every time I see your face now, I regret that I didn't tell you directly at that time. If I had confessed to you earlier, you wouldn't have to give up your original appearance because of me. These years, I wasn't angry with you because of seeing you. I was angry at myself..."
At this point, Kimura Tatsuya suddenly had an idea. He raised his hand and pinched his mouth.
…I’m speechless now! Hahaha!
Mari Terahara, who was still crying silently, said: “!!!”
...potassium cyanide!
There's potassium cyanide on his hands! !
