In the ordinary life of Crayon Shin-chan

Chapter 1558 The Hiccup Battle (Part 1)

Inside the kindergarten, several children are playing hide-and-seek.

Kazama stood speechlessly in front of the sink, looking at Shin-chan hiding behind him. This guy, he's just afraid no one will notice him, wiggling his butt like that...

"Shin-chan, I found you." Kazama slapped his forehead and said speechlessly.

"Oh dear~ Kazama, you're so annoying, you're always the first one to find me~ Could it be that you like me~ Hehe~" Shin-chan immediately stood up, looked at Kazama shyly, and slowly approached him.

Kazama, looking disgusted, stuck out his arm to stop Shin-chan: "Don't say weird things!"

Kazama rolled his eyes at Shin-chan and continued searching for the others in the yard.

They found Ah-Dai by the slide: "Ah-Dai! I found you!"

"Dai~" Adai poked his head out somewhat confusedly, and then Kazama continued to search around the yard.

Looking around, Kazama muttered, "And Asahi, Nene and Masao are together." Passing by the bushes, Nene cautiously peeked out, watching Kazama walk by: "We almost got caught..."

"Hiccup~ Hiccup~" Suddenly, a series of hiccups started going off from the side. Nini looked at the person next to her, somewhat speechless: "Zheng Nan! Don't hide next to me!"

"I didn't mean to hide next to Nini. Hiccup~" Zheng Nan said, hiccuping as he spoke.

"It just so happens that I was hiding very close to Nini. Hiccup~" Zheng Nan said, then hiccuped again.

Nini glared at Zheng Nan with displeasure: "Because you keep hiccuping, we'll be found soon! Get away from me!"

"Ah~ that's not how it works. Hiccup~" Masao said, and couldn't help but hiccup again. However, Kazama's voice suddenly came from behind him: "Nene! Found you!" Seeing this, Masao quickly hid.

"Ah, we've been found! Honestly, it's all Zheng Nan's fault for leading me to this place!" Nini immediately complained in Zheng Nan's direction.

"Ah! Hiccup~" Zheng Nan exclaimed, then hiccuped again.

"No, I only found out when I heard Nini's voice. Okay, we found Masao!" Kazama said, pulling Masao out from the side as well.

"Hiccup~ Uh, hahaha~" Zheng Nan laughed awkwardly.

"So, the only one left is Xiao Xu. Where is Xiao Xu hiding?" Kazama was a little helpless. It was always so troublesome to find Xiao Xu. But since we restricted Xiao Xu from hiding in high places, it should be easier to find him now, right?

As he spoke, Kazama looked around, but for some reason, he always felt that Asahi was always by his side.

Behind Kazama, Akira quietly raised a finger to the little ones, signaling them to be quiet. Shin-chan watched with a grin as Kazama searched around.

"Huh? Where is Xiao Xu hiding?" Kazama searched the yard and looked at the little ones in confusion. "Is he really in the yard? He's not in the tree, is he?"

"No, he really is in the yard, and you've already passed him by many times," Nini said with a grin, looking at Kazama.

"Huh? Never mind, I can't find it. Xiao Xu, come out." Kazama searched for a while longer, then gave up and called out to the yard.

"Hey, Kazama." Mingxu patted Kazama on the shoulder and said with a grin.

"Huh? Where did you come from?" Kazama asked in surprise, somewhat puzzled.

"Well, that's a secret." Mingxu chuckled as he looked at Kazama, then his gaze fell on Masao: "By the way, Masao, your hiccups still haven't stopped?"

His change of topic made everyone look at Zheng Nan, somewhat puzzled: "Yeah, Zheng Nan, you haven't stopped yet?"

"Are you alright?" Ah-Dai asked worriedly.

Seeing everyone's gaze, Zheng Nan felt a little embarrassed: "Sorry, I've been hiccuping non-stop since just now. Hiccup~" He then hiccuped again.

Seeing this, Shin-chan shook his head: "There's nothing we can do, Masao is about to start!"

"Huh?" Zheng Nan looked at Xiao Xin with some confusion, but nodded, guessing that Xiao Xin was going to help him with the treatment.

Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Shin-chan kicked Seinan in the knee.

"Ah! It hurts!"

"Hey! Hey!" Looking at their expressions, Mingxu was completely baffled: "Wait, Shin-chan, are you trying to cure Zheng Nan's hiccups?"

"Yeah, Shin-chan, what are you doing?"

"Stop doing that, Shin-chan!"

"Why do you keep kicking him?" Nini asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Huh? You guys didn't know? Kicking hard can cure hiccups!" Shin-chan said seriously.

"No, you must be mistaken. You meant to scare him, right?" Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin with a headache. This kid had really gone off on a tangent.

"Huh? Then I kicked it for nothing?" Xiaoxin looked a little aggrieved.

"I'm the one who got kicked for nothing, that's why I'm at a disadvantage! Hiccup!" Zheng Nan shouted in dissatisfaction, and hiccuped again as he spoke.

“It hasn’t stopped yet.” Ah-Dai shook his head immediately when he saw Zheng Nan’s expression.

"Then, let's scare Masao together, maybe that will stop him," Kazama suggested immediately.

“Okay,” Nini agreed without hesitation.

Mingxu looked at them, hesitant to speak, then thought, "Well, maybe this is for the best. We'll use this method only if all else fails."

Zheng Nan exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! Is there no other way? I'm most afraid of being scared! *hiccup*"

Shin-chan scratched his face: "Can I drink something? Something clear and tasteless? What is it...?"

"Is it water?" Everyone looked at Zheng Nan, who immediately nodded. This method was better than scaring him; at most, he would just drink some water.

Seeing that Zheng Nan agreed, everyone led him to the tap. Watching Zheng Nan turn on the tap and drink, Ming Xu was somewhat moved. If this water hadn't been filtered and processed, he wouldn't dare to drink raw water like this.

After watching Zheng Nan drink for a while, Nini asked, "How is it? Does it stop?"

Zheng Nan did not respond and continued drinking.

Shin-chan's eyes darted around, and he went to Masao's side, saying again, "By the way, I heard it's better to drink while pinching your nose, right?" As he spoke, Shin-chan pinched Masao's nose.

Zheng Nan was stunned, his breathing became labored, and he spat out the water in his mouth.

"Wow, the south has turned into a fountain!" Shin-chan exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't do anything unnecessary." Mingxu pulled Xiaoxin up speechlessly, looked at Zhengnan, coughed loudly, his clothes were a little wet, and when the cold wind blew, Zhengnan immediately shouted: "Cough cough, it hurts so much, it's so cold! Hiccup~" and then hiccuped again.

"Are you OK?"

"You need to change out of your wet clothes, or you'll easily catch a cold, especially in this weather." Mingxu said, pulling Zhengnan towards the teachers' office to change. The other children quickly followed, but none of the teachers were in the office. Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on the stove where water was boiling.

Shin-chan pointed over there: "That's very warm, you can dry your clothes there."

“But if you get too close, you’ll get a serious burn.” Zheng Nan immediately shook his head.

The headmaster stood behind them, watching them look at the stove, and immediately shook his head, saying, "Children, you can't get too close here, or it will be dangerous."

"Ah! Boss!"

"...I am the headmistress." The headmistress looked at the Nohara brothers with a helpless expression, "You two have gotten my address wrong."

"Boss, we've come over to help Zheng Nan change his clothes, they're wet." Ming Xu said to the headmaster.
