Chapter 474 Searching for Kappa
Chapter 474 Searching for Kappa
The little ones met up again to play, but this time, after everyone arrived and hadn't started to think about what to do, Ah Dai stepped forward first and looked at everyone with a serious face.
"Listen to me, everyone. I have an important discovery!" Ah Dai looked at everyone and said seriously.
Seeing this, Mingxu and the others looked at Ah Dai cooperatively, waiting for him to tell them about his important discovery.
"Everyone, I found the information about Kappa!" Seeing everyone so cooperative, Ah Dai nodded with satisfaction and told them about his discovery.
"Kappa?" Everyone looked at Ah Dai in surprise.
"Yes, I found a legend. It is said that there is a place called the Pond of Tear in Kasukabe Mountain, where kappa live!" Ah Dai said seriously.
"Ah? Is that true?" Mingxu looked at Ah Dai in surprise. Although there was indeed a Kappa in Crayon Shin-chan's world, Mingxu didn't remember it appearing in daily life, right?
"Of course it's true!" Ah Dai said seriously.
"Ah, could it be the kappa wearing a straw raincoat on a rainy day?" Zhengnan asked fearfully when he heard it. He was most afraid of these ghostly things.
"Yes, it's that Kappa." Ah Dai nodded.
"In that case, I really want to take a look at that kappa." Xiao Xinyan said immediately. He was really interested.
"I want to see him, too." Nini nodded. To be honest, among this group of people, apart from Shin-chan, Nini is the bravest.
"It would be great if we could play with Kappa." Hearing everyone say this, Zhengnan suddenly became interested and said excitedly.
"You guys are really something. You actually take this kind of thing seriously. How could there be kappa in this world? The so-called kappa is just a creature that people imagined a long time ago." Fengjian smiled and said seriously.
"That's not necessarily true. Kappa might really exist." Mingxu looked at Fengjian and smiled mysteriously.
“Ah, Xiaoxu, you said so too.” Fengjian was puzzled. Mingxu shouldn’t be the kind of person who believes in superstition. . .
"But if it really exists, it would be very interesting!" A-Dai refuted Fengjian's words.
“That’s true.”
"That's so fun!"
“It’s really interesting!”
"Hu~" As Shin-chan blew into Kazama's ears, Kazama fell limply to the ground.
"Since you guys are like this, let's set out together as the Kasukabe Defense Team to find the Kappa today!" Mingxu raised his hand and shouted when he saw this.
"Okay!" Everyone agreed.
"I really can't stand it. It's fine if they make trouble, but Xiaoxu, you also follow them..." Fengjian lay on the ground speechlessly, too lazy to get up.
At this time, a luxury car stopped by the roadside. Mingxu took a look and felt that it looked familiar. Shouldn't Xiaoai go home during the summer vacation? Was she still in Kasugabe?
As the car window rolled down, Mingxu's mouth twitched. It's really Xiao Ai.
Seeing the little ones not far away, Xiao Ai was happy. Brother Xiao Xu and Master Xiao Xin were there too! Great! I won’t go to the class today!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai shouted to them: "Brother Xiao Xu, Master Xiao Xin, and other classmates, what are you doing here?"
"Xiao Ai! I tell you, we have to go to the Tear Pool on Kasukabe Mountain to play with the kappa." When Zhengnan saw that Xiao Ai had lost all her rationality, he blurted out everything in one go.
When Nini saw Xiao Ai, her whole face wrinkled, and she looked obviously displeased.
"You are going to look for Kappa? So Brother Xiaoxu and Master Xiaoxin will go too, right?" Xiaoai said, looking at Mingxu and Xiaoxin.
"Yes, we will go too." Mingxu nodded.
"Xiao Xu is our captain, of course he will go. It's such a fun thing, I must go and play it too!" Xiao Xin said with his hands on the back of his head.
"Xiao Ai, if you're free, would you like to come with us?" Zhengnan looked at Xiao Ai and invited her without hesitation.
These words hit Xiao Ai's heart exactly: "Really? That's great." Xiao Ai opened the car door and got out.
"Ah! Miss, please wait a moment!" Heiiso hurriedly called Xiaoai: "Miss has to go to the tea ceremony class and English conversation class later!" Looking at the memo in his hand, Heiiso said anxiously.
"Kuroiso, I don't think I've seen the ancient Imari teapot that has been in dad's study recently." Xiao Ai looked at Heiiso with a smile on her face.
"Tsk tsk, Heiji is really being taken advantage of by Xiaoai." When Mingxu saw Heiji's panic, he knew that Xiaoai had caught him.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Heiji had no choice but to agree to let Xiaoai stay.
Everyone got in the car and headed for the Pond of Tears on the other side of Kasukabe Mountain.
When they arrived at the place, there was still some distance and the car couldn't drive in, so everyone got out of the car and walked in.
"There are no kappas in this world." Fengjian said as he walked.
"Kazama, you really can't dream. By the way, what exactly is Kappa?" Xiao Ai rolled her eyes at Kazama and asked.
“Bang~” Everyone present was speechless.
"Xiao Ai, don't you usually read mythological and ghost stories?" Mingxu asked with some confusion.
"?? No." Xiao Ai shook her head. She had to attend so many classes every day, so how could she have the time to read such extracurricular books.
"Actually, Kappa is an aquatic creature that lives in rivers or ponds. It carries a plate filled with water. In order to facilitate swimming, it has a jade stick in the middle of its fingers. Besides, it likes to eat cucumbers and sometimes plays sumo with children. It is this kind of creature." Ah Dai said slowly.
As they were talking, everyone came to the pool of tears. Ah Dai took out a cucumber from his pocket and said, "I also brought a cucumber."
"Wow, Ah Dai is so great." Mingxu clapped his hands.
"But it feels a bit eerie here." Nini said, looking around.
"It feels like there really are kappas living here." Zhengnan also said.
“You can try fishing with this.” Ah Dai said while tying a cucumber with a rope.
Shin-chan simply rolled up his pants and made a sumo pose, trying to attract the kappa to come up.
"Wow~ Master Shin-chan looks so handsome like this~" Xiao Ai blushed as she looked at Shin-chan.
"...if you show your butt, the Kappa will pull the balls out of your butt." Ah Dai said as he looked at Xiao Xin.
"What ball?"
"I heard that everyone has a ball in their butt." Ah Dai explained.
Upon hearing this, everyone present subconsciously looked at their buttocks, and Fengjian almost turned his head away.
"..Kazama, didn't you say you don't believe in Kappa?" Mingxu teased when he saw this.
"Ahem, that's right." Fengjian blushed and coughed twice.
"Kappa, come out quickly~" Xiao Ai lay on the shore and shouted into the water. Seeing this, Heiji hurriedly helped Xiao Ai up.
"Miss, this is too dangerous."
"If you don't get close you won't be able to find the Kappa." Xiao Ai retorted.
"But from my point of view, I can't let you take any risks." Hei Ji shook his head and said firmly.
"Then you come and help me find a solution!" Xiao Ai turned around and said, looking like a willful eldest lady.
"Xiao Ai, don't be so willful to others." Mingxu said when he saw this.
"But, Brother Xiaoxu..."
"I understand. Thank you, Master Xiaoxu." Heiji stood up and made a phone call. Not long after that, they saw a helicopter flying down from the sky. If there hadn't been an open space here, it probably wouldn't have been able to land.
After the plane landed, a group of people ran over from outside the forest.
There were several groups of people with clear division of labor. One group installed various equipment on the shore, while the other group put on diving suits and dived into the water with cucumbers in their hands.
"...So professional." Mingxu said speechlessly as he looked at the various data displayed on the screen in front of Heiji.
"It looks like a Hollywood movie." Zhengnan and the others nodded as they watched the scene.
"Except for the cucumbers in their hands..." Speaking of which, this thing really ruins the show...
Soon they explored everything in the entire pool of tears.
After getting the report, Heiji came over with sweat on his face and reported to Xiaoai: "Miss, there are currently 542 carps, 2330 crucian carps, 242 catfishes, and 7924 frogs in this pond. Unfortunately, there are no kappas among them." After Heiji finished reading, everyone looked at him disappointedly.
"Mr. Heiiso, it's no fun if you play like this..." Mingxu said with a twitching mouth.
"Now that we know there are no kappas in there, it's not fun at all," Nini complained.
"I thought I would be able to see a kappa." Shin-chan shook his head in disappointment and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Everyone sat together in a circle.
"This is really going too far."
"What a disappointment."
“There really is no fun in exploring anymore.”
"I've told you before, you're not qualified to join the Kasukabe Defense Force." Nini looked at Xiao Ai and shook her head.
"But Xiao Ai is also trying very hard to find Kappa!" Zhengnan refuted on Xiao Ai's behalf.
"Shut up you rice ball head!"
"yes..."
Seeing this, Xiao Ai turned to look at Heiji: "It's all your fault! Find a solution quickly! Heiji!"
“...But..." Heiji felt helpless. What could he do when facing the young lady?
Helplessly, Kuroiso put on a Kappa diving suit, painted his face with green paint, put on sunglasses, and then walked underwater.
“…Why did it turn out like this…” Hei Ji looked helpless.
But they on the shore had already turned their attention to the mermaid. Mingxu looked at Heiji pitifully, shook his head and left. But when he left, he noticed the bubbles rising from the water, squinted his eyes, and saw a strange creature.
So that's how it is. Mingxu nodded and left. Heiji stood in the water in a daze, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Kuroiso:(*?????)
