Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful fox

Huh?

Hoshino Hideyuki heard footsteps approaching.

When I looked up, I was surprised to find that Ryoko Senjougahara was already nearby!

The pair of white, tender and smooth feet in wooden clogs stopped one meter in front of him, and the pink toes were clearly visible!

hiss……

Although I knew this old monster was not simple, I didn't expect it to be so fast...

Above my head, a charming female voice came:

"Where is Brother Fox hiding? It's so hard to find him..."

"I'm a little thirsty..."

"Hey, what a beautiful peach! I'm in for a treat~"

The next second, Hoshino Hideyuki felt a soft hand pinching his head, and his sight moved higher and higher.

what.

White teeth (bad).

Chapter 18 The Fox Does Not Believe the Cat's Promise

The cherry pink lips were getting closer and closer, so much so that Hoshino Hideyuki could peek over the lips and see the white teeth that seemed to be exposed but not yet exposed, and the crystal tip of the tongue that was barely visible.

Dah!

puff!

Unable to bear it any longer, he turned back into a human and rolled to the ground.

The corners of Senjougahara Ryoko's mouth curled up, and she gently licked the tip of her index finger that had just kneaded the peach, and then said:

"I found you."

Hoshino Hideyuki bowed humbly:

"I lost. You are much more powerful than a little fox like me..."

Senjougahara Ryoko giggled:

"That's a nice thing to say, but don't expect me to show mercy~"

cut.

"In that case, let's start the second round."

"Eh? Don't you need to take a break, little fox brother? Could it be that you think my words and actions are too oppressive and it's hard to communicate with me?"

Ryoko Senjougahara blinked, then suddenly raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

The next second, she and her clothes turned into a little girl in her early ten years old, delicate and extremely cute.

She said in a baby voice: "Then, I can also chat with you in this appearance. Doesn't it feel less oppressive?"

hiss……

She can even turn into a loli!

You cat demon are really shameless! I usually don't turn into a shota when I lie to older sisters!

Hoshino Hideyuki turned his head away, crossed his arms, and said firmly:

"No need to rest, just continue playing the game."

"Alright alright……"

Senjougahara Ryoko shook her hand regretfully and changed back into her girlish form: "Since you, brother fox, want to do it all at once, I will have no choice but to obey you~"

She then brought Hoshino Hideyuki back to the starting point.

Without a moment's hesitation, Hoshino Hideyuki went back into the peach forest.

He reflected as he ran.

Let's assume that Senjougahara Ryoko did not break her promise and found him with her physical body alone.

This shows that its speed is incredibly fast, and the strategy of delaying time by running a long distance is useless.

On the other hand...

Apart from supermodel abilities like the sixth sense and eavesdropping, if Senjougahara Ryoko wants to find him, she can only rely on the traditional five senses.

See, hear, smell, taste, touch.

Taste and touch are ruled out first, unless there is a weird setting where the entire peach forest is part of the monster's body. If that's the case, Hoshino Hideyuki doesn't need to consider any strategy and can just raise his hands and surrender.

As for the visual and auditory aspects... they are not quite the same.

The straight-line distance is 4 kilometers, and the area is more than 30 square kilometers, with dense branches and leaves of peach trees in the middle. Even if you have the eyes of an eagle and the ears of a bat, it is impossible to find him within just counts.

That's probably the sense of smell.

Cats are also animals that can smell very well.

Thinking of this, Hoshino Hideyuki plucked out a hair and used the skill of the Hair Warrior.

As the fox fur fluttered, it transformed into a red-faced man wearing earth-colored armor.

However, the armor looked tattered, the man was less than 1.7 meters tall, and he was pale and thin, with a listless look... like a Ming soldier who was owed wages.

Tsk.

It's probably because the skill level is too low.

There is no other way. The situation is urgent and the Ming army, which is owed wages, has to serve as Qi's army!

Then Hoshino Hideyuki summoned another wrestler.

He plucked out two tufts of hair of different sizes, gave each to the wrestlers, and asked them to run in different directions.

Finally, he also chose a direction, ran a few dozen steps, turned into a mole, and burrowed into the spot.

After about 400 numbers.

Just when Hoshino Hideyuki thought he was about to win.

He first vaguely sensed that the two strong men had been eliminated.

Followed by.

It was a beautiful, slender hand, but it dug up the soil at the entrance like a shovel. After digging along the tunnel a few times, he came face to face with the happy-looking Senjougahara Ryoko again.

"That's a lot of progress. We're just a little bit short."

"…Thanks for the compliment."

Hoshino Hideyuki gritted his teeth and replied.

Ryoko Senjougahara covered her mouth and chuckled.

The little fox reacted quickly. In the second round, he figured out that I was relying on my sense of smell to find people, and he even thought of using scented hair as bait to lure me away.

Unfortunately, I thought too simply of myself.

My speed in this peach forest is unparalleled. Within 300 counts, I can search all the places where you left your scent~

However, digging a hole is indeed quite troublesome, and you have to dig the soil, which can easily dirty your sleeves. Fortunately, the little fox can only dig for a few dozen times at most and can't dig too deep...

"Then, there's only one round left~"

"Okay, let's get started now!"

"Still not resting?"

"unnecessary."

Wait until Hoshino Hideyuki sets off.

Senjougahara Ryoko smiled and closed her eyes.

The little fox is a little impatient.

Is it because you feel that you have failed?

You can't have an unstable mentality, otherwise, your tail will belong to me.

Yeah, it's time.

"I'm going to start looking~"

After shouting, Ryoko Senjougahara moved her nose and confirmed the sources of the three smells.

It seems to be the same strategy as last time, one real body and two fake bodies.

Because you feel you were just a little bit off last time, you want to take another gamble?

As expected, impatience leads to mistakes.

She took half a step forward, and although her movements looked graceful and slow, her body disappeared in an instant, leaving only an afterimage.

After counting for a dozen times, she came to the source of the first smell, but it was just a skinny and pale soldier.

It's a fake body.

It didn't matter. She killed it casually, turned around, and soon found the second source of the smell, who was also a pale and skinny armored soldier.

Then, she found the third source...

He was still a soldier with a pale face and thin body.

and many more.

Are all three fake?

Ryoko Senjougahara frowned slightly, turned around quickly, and searched all the suspected places nearby, but found nothing except a few fox hairs!

But how is this possible?

There must be something I missed, there must be...

Yes!

She hurried back along the same route and came to the cave where the fox had hidden in the second game.

Reach your hand inside.

I didn't get anything...

No, this hole seems to be much deeper than I thought...

Seeing that time was running out, the graceful beauty put her five fingers together and pressed lightly on the ground. Her slender arms actually transmitted a strong vibration, and in an instant, seven or eight meters of soil and rocks were turned out.

However, the cave still has no bottom!

actually……

A strange premonition emerged from the bottom of her heart, and Ryoko Senjougahara raised her head and looked several dozen meters away.

A small hole collapsed in the ground, and a strange mole with a drill on its head crawled out of it and turned back into Hoshino Hideyuki.

And the one standing within half a meter in front of him...

It's the door with the bell on it!

It turned out that this time, he was performing the play of repairing the plank road in the open while secretly marching through Chencang.

People tend to take things for granted, and big monsters are no exception.

Because Hoshino Hideyuki released two wrestlers in the second round, it was natural to assume that he would also release two wrestlers in the third round.

Because that hole had already been used in the second game, I naturally thought that the location would be changed later.

Because the hole in the second round was very shallow, I naturally thought that this hole would still be so shallow.

But this is all wrong.

In fact, at the beginning of this round, Hoshino Hideyuki released the three limit wrestlers to run out, and then hid himself back in the original cave - because it was a used cave, the residual smell was reasonable and would not arouse suspicion.

As soon as Ryoko Senjougahara left, he started digging immediately.

The location of the hole was not chosen randomly. It was a location he had deliberately come back to after going around in circles in the second round. It was very close to the door with a bell hanging on it at the starting point!
