Chapter 28 The Guilty Little Sister
Chapter 28 The Guilty Little Sister
The staff member glanced at Lin Yeming cautiously, and seeing that the other party's expression was normal and he did not seem angry, he felt a little relieved.
In fact, Lin Yeming noticed the other party's subtle actions, but he didn't want to say it outright because he knew that Japan had a strong sense of hierarchy, and his words could easily influence the other party. Besides, their ranks were too far apart, so there was no need to bother with it.
At that moment, a staff member brought news that someone had spotted the monster.
The two walked over and looked out the window.
"Oh? It's you guys."
The mischievous child from before had lost his arrogant demeanor and was now standing at attention with his head down.
They had to confirm anything related to the monster.
Horii asked, "You said you saw a monster, right?"
The boy in the lead said urgently, "We only saw white smoke, but we heard the roar of a monster."
Lin Yeming and Horii exchanged a glance and asked, "White smoke? Could it be acidic smoke?"
At this moment, a child who was watching couldn't stand it anymore and mocked, "You're lying, there's no monster at all!"
“I’m not lying, it’s true,” the boy immediately retorted.
The two groups started fighting after a disagreement.
The patrol officers, who had just finished eating, quickly came out to stop them.
The patrol officers clearly had some deterrent effect, and the two groups quickly quieted down.
After greeting Lin Yeming, he inquired about the monster's situation.
After confirming that it was a child who had discovered it, he started searching among the children.
The boy tried to hide, but the patrol officers found him anyway.
“These three kids are notorious troublemakers in town.” The patrolman had already seen Horii covered in mud, so he knew it must have been the town’s children causing trouble. He came up and gave them a lecture first, then pointed at the boy and said, “Especially this Yuya, he can come up with all sorts of pranks.”
After saying that, he asked very seriously, "I'm asking you, are you lying?"
"I know you admire the Victory team members, but they are really busy."
"If you're lying to them about the monsters, I will never forgive you."
Lin Yeming realized that these kids were indeed troublemakers, but the patrol officers also had a protective instinct and gave them a chance.
To everyone's surprise, after listening to Xiong Ye, he said with certainty.
“I’m not lying to you, we really heard it.”
After saying that, fearing the other person wouldn't believe him, he turned to his companions and asked, "Are you right?"
"Correct!"
The little girl stood up in support, saying, "My brother wouldn't lie."
Since things have come to this, let's just go.
Lin Yeming was in charge of driving, while Horii was in charge of taking care of the children.
A group of people were crammed into a car, with a police officer following outside.
"It's so hot, let's open the window."
The little girl cried out as Horii held her in his arms.
Horii was about to open the window when the children reached out to touch the buttons on the car. Fortunately, Lin Yeming grabbed their hands and stopped them.
But the next second, the little girl pressed the launch button on the cannon with perfect accuracy, and the cannon shot blasted a big hole in the billboard.
Lin Yeming quickly stopped the car.
He was speechless; he had taken every precaution, but he hadn't anticipated this move.
Fortunately, the shell only hit the billboard; otherwise...
After getting off the bus, Lin Yeming could clearly see that Horii was completely distraught.
But at that moment, I heard the group of children shouting.
"That's awesome!"
Now, not only Horii, but even Lin Yeming felt that these kids had gone too far.
They had absolutely no idea what danger was.
Horii, unusually angry, snapped, "What the hell are you talking about?!"
"You little brats, do you think people will believe your monster stories just because it's a prank?"
The little girl lowered her head in shame, realizing she had caused trouble.
Upon hearing this, Yu quickly retorted, "No, the monster thing is true."
"We really didn't lie."
A boy dressed as a Western gunslinger suddenly exclaimed, "Listen, that's the voice!"
They suddenly heard a strange sound.
Everyone quickly got into the car. This time, the children behaved well and didn't move around.
However, when Lin Yeming and his group arrived at the scene, they did not see the so-called monster, but instead saw a severed monster.
Horii determined that the sound was likely caused by the wind and electrical wires.
"Did you cut the power line?"
"I told you all not to fly kites here."
"That's what the workers who came to repair it said."
Each of them carried a kite, and the other carried a tool kit for repairs.
Lin Yeming picked up the broken wire and examined it, only to find that the wire was very thick, and the kite couldn't cut it at all, so there must be another reason.
"It wasn't us. We definitely heard the monster's voice."
Xiong also hurriedly retorted.
However, they did not deny the fact that they were flying kites there.
Flying a kite under high-voltage power lines goes beyond mere mischief.
Xiong also felt that no one trusted him, so he snorted coldly and said, "If you don't believe me, then forget it!"
"Let's go!"
He carried Youjia and left with his two followers.
Lin Yeming watched them leave and asked the worker beside him, "Uncle, were those kids flying kites inside the whole time?"
The staff member holding the kite nodded: "Yes, we've chased them away many times."
"Speaking of which, the power lines here have been broken many times. I wonder if they are too old."
Excuse me.
The workers bowed slightly to indicate that they were about to start work.
Lin Yeming nodded and looked around.
This power tower occupies a large area, and although there are trees around it, they are not close by, which is probably to prevent fires.
The tunnel they passed through was also nearby.
Exhaust fumes leaking from the tunnel damaged the trees, causing them to lose their vitality due to the acidic fumes.
There should be some connection between the two.
He thought about it and decided to ask his partner for their opinion, since they were more knowledgeable about this substance.
Although he didn't remember the specific plot, he knew that it was impossible for the Ultraman Tiga world to exist without monsters.
He asked, "Horie, given the topography of Ritoma City, is it possible that acid fumes could be generated due to vehicle abandonment?"
Upon hearing this, Horii pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up; this was highly likely.
He analyzed, "The possibility that the exhaust fumes from cars in highway tunnels could produce acid mist for some reason is very high."
"Ye Ming, your idea has a very high probability of success."
Lin Yeming was deep in thought, and soon he figured it out: "If the power lines were damaged by the fog, then the direction the children went was likely the source of the acidic substance!"
Horii's eyes widened, and he immediately realized that the problem was serious.
He immediately chased after the children in the direction they had gone.
