Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5854 Wrong person

The man reached out and touched the bird's nest and the branches beneath it.

After a long while, the man looked away in amazement.

Let's go home first and talk about it then.

……

The man grabbed the bird's nest and turned to leave.

Long branches swayed gently behind him.

……

Wastewater started running.

It runs very fast.

The wind whistled past its ears.

Raindrops hit its face.

……

Is that the one?

Xu Hao caught a glimpse of a figure.

It looks a lot like that human with a monster attached to him.

They are very similar in height.

……

The waste was somewhat of a pleasant surprise.

Did you catch up?

It quickened its pace.

……

Xu Hao ran up to the boy.

……

The boy was completely unaware.

Walk straight ahead.

……

Just a second before the boy was about to collide with the void, the void stepped aside.

no……

I was somewhat disappointed by the wasted money.

It mistook someone for someone else.

……

Xuhao pursed his lips.

Tsk.

It pursed its lips.

A wasted turn.

What human are you looking for?
I'm not looking anymore.

……

That being said...

But upon seeing another figure resembling that boy from behind, he acted faster than he thought and rushed forward.

……

But it wasn't true.

Xu Hao's face darkened.

It pursed its lips forcefully and left with heavy footsteps.

……

Another failed attempt to identify the person...

I feel like hitting someone.

Humanity……

Why do they all look so alike?

It's not easy to recognize at all.

The feeling of being consumed by anger is more akin to being depressed.

……

Before I knew it, the colors of the sunset and the afterglow of the setting sun had faded.

Night falls.

Various kinds of lights lit up the streets.

It lit up the night.

……

The rain is still falling.

It's much smaller.

Pattering.

……

The lights in the mist became even more hazy.

The faces reflected in the image were also slightly blurred.

……

Xuhao twitched the corner of his mouth.

It knew before that it wasn't very good at recognizing people.

After all, it has always been dispensable to humans.

Even humans who can see it are affected.

The first thing that left an impression on it...

She was the woman who was clearly afraid of it, yet she yelled at it, called it a bull-nose, and always made demands of it while talking to herself.

It was also because of that woman...

This is the first time it has stayed in a human dwelling for such a long time.

Well.

For humankind, this is a very long time.

But for it, it was only a short period of time.

……

Therefore, it readily agreed to some of the woman's requests.

It wasn't because of a few goldfish.

You think you can bribe it with just a few goldfish?

Just kidding.

……

The second human to leave an impression on it was that little girl.

Because of her persistence and dedication.

What surprised it even more was...

That little girl actually did what she said.

More surprising than simply persisting is what you do.

……

And the people that little girl brought...

It also surprised it greatly.

He is someone who can not only see monsters but also subdue them.

This made it wary.

Such humans are rare these days.

It's been a long time... since I've encountered it.

So long that it even thought that such humans no longer existed.

……

Ok.

It was indeed overthinking things.

Such humans still exist.

It encountered it.

……

but…..
After a brief encounter…
It discovered...

The human seemed to have no ill intentions towards it.

They weren't even on guard.

This makes it seem somewhat ridiculous, given its heightened state of alertness.

But it couldn't be sure if this was a case of the human underestimating its strength. Humans are weak.

But humans are cunning.

This is a concept it has had for a long time.

As for the reason why it came about...

It can't remember.

But it believed in itself.

It was not fooled by the human's behavior.

It maintains the most basic level of vigilance.

I never expected this...

Now it is searching everywhere for the human who has made it wary.

……

I stepped into a puddle, feeling utterly exhausted.

The splashing water affected the people nearby.

……

"Ouch!"

"what happened?"

Water splashed onto my legs.

"What...?"

"I thought something serious had happened..."

"Your sudden shout startled me."

"Water just inexplicably splashed onto my legs..."

"look."

There was no one else around us.

"You splashed it yourself."

"No."

"I didn't step in a puddle."

"Then there's no one left?"

"me?"

"I didn't step in any puddles either."

"You really didn't step in a puddle?"

"See for yourself."

Where were the puddles on our way here?

"……never mind."

"It's just a little splash of water."

"Don't worry about it."

"I probably just stepped on something and didn't notice..."

"……All right."

"Too."

"never mind."

……

Xu Hao smiled slightly.

Sometimes, it actually enjoys seeing humans so confused.

That was just an accident.

After all, it wouldn't be so bored as to play tricks on a human like this.

But the conversation just now made it feel better.

really.

It's happy when humans make mistakes.

……

It doesn't like being confused at all.

It hated itself even more for having searched for a human for so long... and for mistaking so many people...

fortunately.

None of the people who admitted their mistakes could see it.

This made it feel better.

Otherwise, wouldn't it embarrass itself in front of humans?

……

Wasted energy decides to contradict himself.

Right now, it just needs to do some boring things to relieve its depression.

Wasted effort stepping through one puddle after another.

The splashing water startled a chorus of sounds.

"what!"

"ah!"

"water!"

"Where does the water come from?"

……

Xu Hao grinned.

Ok?
A figure came into view from behind as I looked up.

this person……

Although I told myself: it's definitely not the human I'm looking for.

But his feet had already taken a step.

……

Xu Hao, with an unfriendly expression, rushed towards the suspicious person.

If that person could see the void, they would definitely be startled.

……

Unfortunately.

That person could not see the waste.

That person was certainly not the one we were looking for.

……

I'm angry at myself for wasting my time.

What is it doing here?
Do you really want to find that person?

……

I decided to go back to the general store.

If it continues to wander around outside like this, it will definitely mistake people for people again and again.

It's had enough.

……

Wasteful, he sneered.

It checked the direction.

A hint of confusion appeared in his eyes.

here……

It seems to be its first time here.

It was somewhat uncertain about the direction of the grocery store.

For so many years, it has stayed in the grocery store and hasn't really come out to explore.

At most, they'll just wander around the neighborhood.

I never expected this...

One day, it followed a human to a strange place...
Well.

The main reason is that it lost its way while wandering around in its search for this human.

Otherwise, it would have known the way back to the general store when it was by the river.

……

A moment of stunned silence -
Yes, there's nothing to panic about wasting money.

If you can’t find it, you can’t find it.

of course.

It still wants to find it.

Its goldfish is still in the grocery store.
