Chapter 929 Little Music in the Night
Zongfang just glanced at the mage who was pretending to be a god, and then he pulled out the Victory Hypal Gun from his waist and shouted: "Find the flute player immediately."
“Understood!”
The team members followed He drew his gun, then spread his legs and ran towards the direction where the flute sounded. But before he ran a few steps, the flute in front suddenly disappeared, and then sounded behind him, causing the team members to stop and turn their heads to look. Behind them, listening to the unmistakable sound of the flute, everyone finally turned their attention to Zongfang.
Mongakata's face was as calm as water, with no emotion at all, and without too much hesitation, he said directly: "Dagu and Lina stay, Xincheng and Horii follow me."
"Understood!"
Mongakata's new order had just been issued, and the team members were about to execute it. The flute sound from behind also disappeared, and then sounded on the left hand side, and it sounded a little further away than the previous two times. .
The team members took back their steps and looked at each other, where should they pursue?
Zongfang did not act rashly, but raised his hand and pressed the button of the helmet, and said: "Ye Rui, can you locate the position of the flute sound?"
"I'll try." Ye Rui immediately Start tapping the keyboard and use the instruments and equipment of the Victory Team to determine the playing position of the so-called Obik flute to find out the person who is 'pretending to be a ghost'.
Although Obik's story is magical and telling, for TPC, which has been exposed to various cutting-edge sciences for many years, not many people think that it is monsters and ghosts at work. Even if they have seen it with their own eyes or know about the ghost, most people think it is Some kind of bizarre creature that resembles a Halloween witch.
So after reading the information about Obik, the Victory Team guessed that it might be someone from the universe or another dimension who was causing trouble. Only Xincheng firmly believed that the murderer was Obik, whom his grandfather had told about when he was a child. Horii immediately told a scary story from his grandma: "You must never look back when you meet Obike, otherwise you will be eaten."
Soon, with the strong technological strength of TPC, Yerui completed the positioning of the source of the flute sound and marked it on the map, so that people can know where the flute sound is at a glance, but This did not allow the victory team to take action immediately, because the red dot on the map was constantly changing. One moment it was here, the next moment it was there, and in the blink of an eye it was a few streets away, and the unpleasant sound could no longer be heard. The flute sounded.
"What is this?" Xincheng looked confused and asked: "Yerui, there is something wrong with your map."
"Absolutely impossible," Yerui immediately retorted , you can question his ability, but you can't question his computer skills, but looking at the red dots running around the map, he was also confused. He checked it quickly and said: "There is no problem with the program. I think the source of the sound is there. Fast movement.”
Megumi immediately thought of the files submitted by Hikono Town. Those citizens and police officers who claimed to have encountered Obik were all sent to far away places in a very short period of time without any clues. Now it seems,' Obik' has the ability to teleport similarly. Zongfang also agreed with Megumi's conjecture. Instead of chasing the source of the constantly moving flute sound in vain, he asked Ye Rui to record the points after each movement on the map. The team members went to these points separately to investigate. Only if they collected enough Only with more clues can we find out the movement patterns of the flute and then make a detailed plan.
Dagu and Lina, Shinjo and Horii, acted in two teams separately, but Munakata put the victory hyapa gun back into the holster on his waist and stepped towards the person who was still there. The mage standing in the 'formation' first put his hands together and saluted, and then asked: "May I ask the mage, can you tell us something about Obik? "
The old raccoon cat was a little uneasy when Munakata came over. If he didn't still want this identity, and even more the money promised by Hikono Town, I'm afraid he would have slipped away long ago. Don't look at the victory team's response to the monsters and The record of the Spacemen is not very good, but they are indeed the most powerful team on the planet, and they are still a great deterrent to aliens like them.
Hearing that Zongfang was asking about Obik, the old civet cat hurriedly returned the favor, then looked calm and said in his usual compassionate tone: "Obik, alas, actually he is also a pitiful person. People.”
"I would like to hear the details!"
When the old raccoon cat, holding the spirit of 'a dead Taoist friend and an immortal poor monk', informed Zongfang of some insignificant details about Obik's life experience, background and current situation, Obik Katsu was still in the dusk, wasting his precious 'soul', constantly shifting himself, spreading the sound of his flute throughout Hikono Town so that everyone could hear it.
This made him feel as if he had gone back in time. In the afterglow of the sunset, he was sitting on the old tree on the stone bridge at the head of the village, playing the flute. The melodious sound of the flute floated among the green mountains, green waters, farmland and houses. In the meantime, people are informed of the arrival of dark night, allowing everyone to end the day's work, walk in the fields, cross the cold streams, smoke rises from the kitchen, and lights up the dots.
The night at that time was so peaceful, with only the chirping of insects, the croaking of frogs, the barking of dogs, and the crowing of chickens. When the lights in the thatched hut went out, everything fell into darkness, leaving only the stars and the bright moon. Bringing some light to the earth, this is also the time when Obik goes out to play.
But now, the city lights are bright all night, and humans use electricity to light up the night. The real night can no longer be found, and Obik can no longer walk freely at night as he did in the past. There is not even a place to live.
Obik played a piece of music that was unique to him, which was the 'bell' at dusk in Hikono Village. Whenever he played the flute, bold children would gather around and stare at the empty trees with their big eyes open. There are also naughty children who always want to climb up and have a look, and then they are dragged home by their ears by the adults who are finishing their work.
How happy it was at that time, the villagers were not afraid of him, and everyone lived in harmony. But since when did they no longer have the freedom to walk around at night, no one listened to his music, and they could no longer see fertile fields and fields. Beautiful pools, houses, streams.
The melodious sound of the flute makes Obik’s mind The long-disappeared village in the sea became more and more clear in my memory. In front of my eyes, there seemed to be a tall watchtower, a large lotus root pond, a long stream, as well as acres of fertile fields, seemingly-looking houses, and... There are adults working in the fields, children playing in streams and ponds, and the tall old tree.
In the past, every time Obik thought of the village in his memory, he would feel happy from the bottom of his heart, and a happy smile would appear on his face. It was his only comfort in the lonely dark night.
But now it only reminds him of peaceful villages and silent nights. They have all disappeared and been replaced by this city. Even he has been squeezed out of the city and has no place to stand. It’s all there. It’s all there. The city's fault.
