Chapter 67 Listen Carefully To What Others Say

  "Wait here, don't sneak up on me!" At the entrance of Haruhi Suzumiya's home, having been carried by Mikuru all the way, her numb legs had finally recovered, no, they should have recovered a long time ago, but she seemed to be addicted to being carried, so she didn't plan on getting down!

  All the way to her doorstep, Jiǔ Mìng felt like she was being ruthlessly abandoned. Hey, no matter what, shouldn't they at least invite me in for a sit and a cup of tea?

  No matter what, I'll get to see your family's home, that mysterious parents of yours... What kind of great ability do they have to give birth to a daughter like you... It's simply terrifying!

  "If you come in, it's a death sentence!" Seemingly still uneasy, Suzumiya Haruhi stepped back and warned Nagato once more.

  "Alright, alright, hurry up." Jiǔ Mìng waved his hand at her and leaned against the wall to wait. He had thought he would have to wait for half an hour or even an hour, after all, girls take a long time to change clothes and get dressed...

  As a result, she unexpectedly came out in just five minutes, wearing a fresh and clean summer outfit.

  Alright, even if she wasn't wasting time on dressing up, it's unlikely that she would come out this quickly, right?

  After all, her old dad and mom saw their daughter coming back 'disheveled', no matter what they had to figure out what happened.

  So soon?

  "Your... parents aren't home?"

  "Of course I was there, but I sneaked back into the bedroom without them noticing."

  I told you so!

  And so another new day has begun, just like today's activity... fishing!

  Wow, this seems pretty good!

  Jiǔ Mìng thought he was a patient person, when fishing, he could sit still like a clock, except for the group of pig teammates beside him...

  Oh, it must be the teammate who's selling cute, stretching out to pull away the earthworm that had fallen on their own head. The nine lives looked at each other calmly and saw Asahina Mirai still frantically patting her chest, struggling to participate without rest. Didn't an earthworm just accidentally get flung onto your chest?

  As for making such a big fuss, he even directly flung that poor earthworm onto his own head... By the way, this earthworm was on Haruhi Suzumiya's fishing hook.

  I don't know if this big fuss will scare away the fish, oh, it seems unlikely.

  Feeling the vibration on the fishing rod, Jiǔ Mìng nodded slightly, looking like he wouldn't be leaving anytime soon. Compared to others who came here for casual fishing, Jiǔ Mìng was even more formal. He didn't use a float, nor did he need one; any slight abnormal vibrations on the rod could be captured by him, rendering that thing completely unnecessary.

  With a swoosh, a fish was pulled out with a trail of water and then easily tossed into the rain bucket by Jiǔ Mìng, feeling like it wasn't difficult at all!

  Muttering to himself, Kaito re-baited the hook and it seemed that Suzaku was also successful on the other side, having caught a large fish that was in no way inferior to his own.

  "Or... shall we have grilled fish for dinner?"

  "Of course." Haruhi Suzumiya nodded without thinking, and Koizumi scratched his head. How should I put it, it seemed that when there were other people around, Haruhi's personality was always like this... Hmm!

  It was just last night, in a situation where I was alone, that he behaved like a cat licking its fur, very gentle.

  What's the point of saying anything else?

  Continue fishing then! Until evening...

  "I said, although I don't really mind eating here, are you guys really okay with that?"

  At a certain grave, nine lives yawned and looked at the fire in front of them. After processing and stringing up the fish, they inserted it into the ground and slowly waited for the fish to be roasted to an edible state. However, whether others had the appetite to eat was another matter.

  As for Asahina Mirai, she was now pale and looking around nervously, as if afraid that a ghostly figure would suddenly appear from somewhere. The bonfire in front of her seemed to be unable to provide her with much sense of security either.

  Kuijiu's master sat down in the most secluded spot, back to the tombstone... and wondered if roasting fish here would attract a group of vengeful spirits that would drive them mad.

  The nine lives are more inclined to some patrol personnel who find them and come over to drive them away.

  It seems that under Haruhi's will, this situation may not happen tonight. In short, except for the somewhat unsuitable venue, it was a pretty good picnic. Kyon has now smelled the aroma of grilled fish and took out various seasonings he had prepared earlier, sprinkling them evenly.

  "Speaking of which, who among you knows why the person opposite us has turned pale?" Jiǔ Mìng raised his head and saw that Asahina Mikuru's face had turned deathly pale.

  "......Sigh." Ah Xū pointed to the back of Jiǔ Mìng, who turned around and took a glance. Suzumiya Haruhi was holding a flashlight under her chin, shining it on her face... At first glance, it was indeed quite eerie, but unfortunately, both Jiǔ Mìng and Nagato Yuki were remarkably calm about the situation.

  Everyone looked at Haruhi Suzumiya with a calm expression, "Stop messing around, the fish is done. Do you want to eat?"

  "Is that so? Then I won't be polite." Squeezing between Kaminari and Nagisa, Suzumiya Haruhi pulled out a grilled fish skewer without hesitation, "Hmmm...not bad at all. This outdoor picnic and test of courage at the same time is even more exciting!"

  "Cough." Jiǔ Mìng's situation was met with a single sound, as if others' feelings weren't as 'not bad' as yours. Never mind, this is just right, he can eat a bit more now.

  Today, Jiǔ Mìng no longer lives on the streets.

  Honestly, even the nine lives are in awe of Haruhi Suzumiya's energy. It's just a summer break, why does it have to be so... exhausting!?

  Every day, she leads a group of team members who haven't fully recovered from their exhaustion to run around and cause trouble. Watching such a clichéd movie, perhaps under her influence, or maybe it's just a really clichéd movie, there were only a few people in the entire cinema, plus one ghost. If two fewer men had come as humans, they might not have needed to watch a movie at all - they could have just made their own AVI instead...

  Nine lives are entangled in whether or not to make another poisonous oath, and never play that kind of strategy game again.

  "What are you going to do with that knife?" Akira Chousa glared warily at Konomi, who was holding a kitchen knife.

  "Hesitating whether to cut off his hand." The nine lives of a painful expression pushed the computer in front of him to one side, and Asakura Ryouko, who had come back to her senses, immediately lay down on the ground laughing and rolling around.

  "Haha! Failed again? Hurry up and chop, hurry up and chop already!" A ruthless and malicious mockery.

  With a loud thud, she turned green with fright as she stared at the kitchen knife stuck beside her neck, its sharp blade gleaming coldly and perilously close to her delicate nape...

  "Slipped away... what a pity."

  "Do you want to kill me!!!!!!"

  She gently pushed her into a nearby box that looked like a cat's nest, Jiǔ Mìng closed the laptop in front of her, and let out a sigh... Forget it, cutting off one's hand was only going to make him weaker, and didn't seem to have any other effect. In that case, she might as well wait for a while longer. After all, wasn't Xi saying that he was developing a new game?

  Then just wait and see, as for this strategy game that makes him feel desperate? Go die!

  The next day... The beach was filled with jellyfish. No one dared to enter the water, except for him and her...

  In summary, the tide came in and those who couldn't get in the water were like kids, actually building sandcastles on the beach. Seeing their hard work destroyed in an instant was utterly frustrating!

  And Haruhi Suzumiya with her destructive attitude, treating herself as a monster in a convex-concave world?

  "By the way... this thing is edible, right?" Jiǔ Mìng held a jellyfish in each hand, as for its toxicity? His soul body, which was naturally immune to poisoning and bleeding, couldn't possibly worry about it.

  "Don't suddenly bring that dangerous thing over here!" Knowing the power of this little thing, Ah Xū was a bit intimidated, staring at Jiǔ Mìng as he approached. The others also had evasive postures, being stung would be torture, and these two sea wasps caught by Jiǔ Mìng seemed to have become enraged after failing to poison him?

  "Stop thinking about eating all the time, can you do it?" Haruhi Suzumiya was staring at Mikuru's two shiny objects with great interest, as if she would immediately order the start of the dangerous jellyfish catching game as soon as he confirmed.

  "I won't."

  "That's it." Haruhi Suzumiya suddenly lost interest, thinking that if she wasn't careful, her delicate skin would get stung again, and her already low interest value plummeted once more, completely losing all interest.

  No one with experience dealing with this stuff is going to catch a jellyfish... What a fancy way to die?

  It's obvious that because of these jellyfish, Nagisa Furukawa didn't seem to have much fun today, especially with the bowling afterwards.

  Nine lives were lost and two balls were dropped, and then they were severely ordered not to throw again!

  It's too scary, if this monster continues to throw like this, they'll probably lose money, every time seeing those bottles hit by bowling balls and flying everywhere, Ah Xū is worried that those bottles will be broken into pieces after being hit a few more times, the shock-absorbing board can't withstand it!

  "Uh... I used to throw things a lot in the past, so it's become a habit. Whenever I throw something like a 'hidden weapon', I subconsciously explode..."

  " Bowling balls can't be classified as 'hidden weapons' no matter how you look at it!?" Ah Xū gazed at Jiǔ Mìng with a mix of envy, jealousy, and hatred as he effortlessly lifted a heavy bowling ball as if it were a balloon.

  "How is this not counted? I've been blown away by a blast of this size before..." During the battle with the simulated opponent in the mysterious shop.

  "What's that noise?" Haruhi Suzumiya asked curiously, wiping the sweat from her face with a towel.

  "A trait, huh... Don't get any dangerous ideas, I won't do it!" Seeing Haruhi Suzumiya show an interested expression, Koizumi quickly shook his head, and that was the end of that. No way would he play along with that kind of dangerous game.

  "It's said that although it's not time to set off firecrackers yet, playing with them occasionally is also pretty good."

  "Can't you have fun anymore? Listen carefully to what others say!"
