Chapter 721 Geed Chapter The Fourth Biggest Problem of the Showa Period
Next to Qianzi Saito was an old man wearing glasses. It is said that in China, this person is not called a village chief or mayor, but a "secretary".
The old man seemed to know Saito Qianzi's special ability. When he saw that the friend she invited was wearing a blue jacket and gray jeans in a weather of minus 20 degrees and was not cold at all, he understood that this was definitely not "ordinary". "People", he stepped forward and greeted him warmly.
But Asakura Riku and Toba Kuruha were petrified... They couldn't understand Chinese!
It's strange. Mr. Yu Hui clearly spoke the same language before. Why could he understand it then, but now he is completely blind?
Kate saw the two people looking dumbfounded and said, "He is thanking you, foreign guests, who have come from afar, and said he would treat you well."
Toba Raiha: "Hey, Kate-senpai knows Chinese?"
Kate said: "Many highly intelligent cosmic beings who have invaded the earth can decipher and control the Earth Defense Force's cutting-edge weapons with just a few glances. I'm just learning a language, so I won't make a fuss."
Saito Qianzi also understood Chinese and directly told the village party secretary to go to the place where the incident occurred and wait until the incident was resolved before letting go and playing.
The village party secretary praised the straightforwardness of several people and led the way.
He pointed to the cable car running in the distance but no one was riding it, and introduced the local situation while walking.
This village is neither big nor small, but its tourism industry is very developed.
In the past, when the weather was fine, many tourists would come to ski or take the cable car to see the snow-capped mountains.
Having said this, a gloomy look flashed across the face of the village party secretary: "It's just... there have been some rumors recently, which has reduced the number of tourists a lot."
While translating these words to Asakura Riku and Toba Kuriha, Kate asked: "What are the rumors? Tell me and listen."
"This..." The village party secretary looked embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to speak.
At this time, a fierce fighting sound came from the intersection in the distance.
"No one wants you, freak, get out of our village, that big snow monster is here to find you!"
"Tourists outside are afraid of the snow monster and won't come. My mom's restaurant hasn't been open for a day!"
"My grandma said that your father was killed by you, and now Aaron and the other three have been killed by you too!"
I saw a few children around thirteen years old chasing a child who looked the same age as them.
Saito Qianzi couldn't stand this kind of behavior, and stepped forward eagerly to use violence to solve violence.
The village party secretary was shocked when he heard those words, and stepped forward to drive away the children: "What are you doing! In broad daylight, no nonsense is allowed!"
When several bullying children saw the village party secretary coming, they quickly dispersed.
Asakura Riku and Toba Kuriha were confused. Because of the language barrier, they needed to use a translator. They were slow from beginning to end.
I thought this was a sign of the strong national spirit and the children were making a fool of themselves.
After driving the people away, the village party secretary looked at the child with a hurt face and sighed: "You should go home too, avoid interacting with those people in the future, and be careful when going out."
The child nodded silently and left, looking very lonely.
Kate realized there was something fishy here and stepped forward and asked: "What do those people mean by freaks, snow monsters, and death just now? Are the three students who died related to the child just now?"
The village party secretary said: "Some superstitious old people talk nonsense, and those children follow suit. They actually have no bad intentions."
Saito Qianzi sneered: "Human beings are born with evil nature. Some children may be young, but they are born bad. Don't underestimate them."
The village party secretary coughed: "It's not that serious. What can a child understand?"
Soon, he took several people to the back of a vegetable shed, where the ground was sunken into a pit with a little blood stains inside.
Saito Qianzi said: "Someone found the shabby bodies of the three murdered students here before. I think they were trampled to death."
Asakura Riku: "Trampled to death?"
Saito Qianzi: "I remember you are not the high jump champion? You will understand when you jump up and look down."
Chaocang Lu did as he was told, holding his breath and jumping eight meters high, shocking the village party secretary.
When Asakura looked down from the sky, he was surprised to find a concave shape on the ground, like a huge footprint.
"Could it be...the legendary 'Bigfoot'?" Asakura Riku said, and Toba Kuruha also thought of this legendary creature.
"Based on this footprint, this Bigfoot must be fifty meters tall." Saito Qianzi said.
Riku Asakura thought how fresh it was. After I debuted as an Ultra Warrior, the enemies I encountered were basically this size.
Kate said that the big snow monster was very strange. It could either fly or appear and disappear out of thin air.
"Don't you think it's strange? It took us more than ten minutes to walk to the center of the village."
"If there is really a so-called 'Bigfoot' hidden in the snowy mountains, if it comes to the village to kill people, it will have to walk in step by step, trample people to death, and then walk out step by step."
"With his weight and size, how could he leave only such a footprint?"
When several people heard it, they all thought it made sense.
Riku Asakura: "That means Bigfoot can fly?"
Kate: "The fifty-meter-tall behemoth passed over the village. Any villager who is not blind can see it."
But according to the village party secretary, apart from the three students who died, only one person had seen "Bigfoot".
"It's the kid who was chased and beaten that I saw before. His name is Zhang Mingguang, but what he said as a kid..."
Kate interrupted the village party secretary and said in an unquestioning tone: "Find him immediately. The only witness must be questioned clearly."
The village party secretary nodded and made a phone call, seemingly asking his father to bring him here.
Kate asked: "Dad? Didn't those children say that their dad has passed away? Who are you calling?"
Village party secretary: "His stepfather is named Zhang Hailong. He has no ability and a bad temper, but he dare not deny me face."
While waiting for someone, Kate felt that the child who was bullied by a group of peers might be the key to solving the mystery, so she asked the village chief to elaborate on it.
"That child has a miserable life. His father used to be an electrician and died in an accident."
"Her mother didn't want him, but the law didn't allow it. She had no choice but to take the compensation and remarry Zhang Hailong with him as a dragster."
"If he is not his son, he will definitely not look down upon him. That Zhang Hailong beats the kid every once in a while to vent his anger. Once, the noise was so loud that even the police came."
Asakura Riku quickly asked: "Then what, didn't the police solve it?"
Village party secretary: "How to solve this problem? The police can't do anything about this kind of thing. The child has no other place to go. We can only criticize and educate him and let him continue to stay in that home."

Sister Kate's episode is based on the thirty-first episode of "Ultraman" "The Illusory Snow Mountain".
Although this episode is not popular, I think it can be regarded as the fourth most problematic episode of the Showa era. If you are interested, you can check it out.
Tomorrow's update may be a little later.
