Chapter 30 Golem: Here I come!
Chapter 30 Golem: Here I come!
After skipping over the matter of the little bee, the real reason why Yusuke Godai called Kawahara was to talk about the help that would come later.
"There was a little girl once..."
Professor Natsume's daughter, Mika Natsume, took the things her father had researched to the Metropolitan Police Department to seek help, hoping that this thing could help the Metropolitan Police Department get clues about "No. 0".
However, due to the sudden appearance of an unconfirmed life form, the Metropolitan Police Department became busy and temporarily neglected the little girl, causing her to think that the police did not care about what No. 0 did, nor did they care about her father's death. So she left in anger and left behind words of suicide.
Professor Natsume is the teacher of the archaeological team who discovered the Kuroyama ruins and led the team in the excavation work.
That was the team that was brutally massacred by the resurrected Daguba.
Kawahara's eyes moved slightly: "I see, I'll go out and help look for it now."
……
Kawahara still has some impression about this little girl.
——Because No. 0 slaughtered the entire archaeological team and killed her father, Natsume Mika simply wanted the Metropolitan Police Department to catch the murderer as soon as possible.
But she waited for a long time but there was no news.
But in fact, the Metropolitan Police Department has never given up the pursuit of "No. 0".
But for a little girl who is only in junior high school, she doesn't know what kind of existence "unconfirmed life forms" are, nor does she know what kind of enemy the Metropolitan Police Department is facing.
Her world came to a standstill after her father's death.
Kawahara knew where she would end up.
After riding a motorcycle at a speed of 300 km/h along the coastline of Tokyo, Kawahara saw a figure standing on the beach.
He parked his motorcycle on the side of the road and walked over there.
The little girl was holding a box in her arms, staring at the sea in a daze, and only reacted when a stranger approached her.
"What are you doing?" Kawahara asked softly.
"..."
But the little girl just looked at him warily without saying anything.
Kawahara also turned his gaze away from her and cast his eyes towards the sparkling sea in front of him, then began to look for topics to talk about: "The sea is beautiful!"
Natsume Mika lowered her head in silence.
I don’t know why, but when I saw this little girl just now, Kawahara felt an inexplicable sense of fate connected with her, as if something had changed in the future.
The little girl couldn't remain silent, so Kawahara looked at the shell bracelet wrapped around her wrist.
"This shell is very beautiful. Is it from the seaside?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Natsume Mika immediately raised her hand to cover her shell bracelet.
But Kawahara also lifted the pendant on his chest and said softly: "I also have something I found on the beach like you."
Only then did Natsume Mika look at him seriously, her eyes falling on the white conch pendant he was holding up, and then she lowered her head and touched her shell bracelet.
“This is a gift from my father…”
She spoke in a very low voice.
Kawahara smiled and said, "I know, your father is Professor Natsume."
Natsume Mika suddenly looked up at him, as if she realized something. The little girl asked in a daze, "How did you know I was here?"
"I told you, because we have the same thing." Kawahara pointed to the necklace on his chest again.
"This kind of thing..."
"The person who gave me this thing said that if I put it next to my ear, I could hear the sound of the sea. I didn't believe it at first, but later I found that it really can hear."
Kawahara smiled softly: "What about you?"
Natsume Mika couldn't help but whispered, "Dad said that people in ancient times would pick up beautiful things like this from the seashore to make jewelry, so he made one for me himself."
People in ancient times...
Kawahara inexplicably felt like he was being cueed...
He lifted the pendant hanging around his neck and stroked the white conch with some tiny cracks.
"Things like this are all filled with the feelings of the person who gave them to you. Shika, maybe your father also gave them to you with high hopes for you. Do you have the heart to disappoint him?" Kawahara said softly. "How is that possible!"
Natsume Mika suddenly became a little excited: "But - why doesn't any of you care? Everyone is dead, and Dad is..."
Kawahara looked at her seriously: "We are all working hard to find No. 0! Just like you found this clue when no one knew about it and wanted to help us, everyone is also working hard in places you can't see."
Upon hearing this, Natsume Mika was suddenly stunned.
She looked at him as if she was a little overwhelmed, then looked down at the box she had been holding in her arms.
She found this box in her father's laboratory. Thinking it was related to the ruins, Natsume Mika hoped it would help the Metropolitan Police Department find No. 0 faster.
Apart from revenge, she even forgot that there was anything else in her heart.
Kawahara bent down and squatted in front of her: "Xiao Shijia, according to your father's expectations, you should be able to have a better future, right?"
——Don’t be so depressed at such a young age.
Natsume Mika was really upset before and didn't understand how the adults could just ignore it.
Now that she was suddenly told this, she became at a loss again after understanding it. Her stubborn feelings of guilt and grievance turned into tears that swirled in her eyes.
"I have no idea……"
She bit her lip, lowered her head and let the falling tears fall on the box one by one.
Kawahara watched her cry in silence, and had no intention of continuing to comfort her.
It’s better to cry now.
Yusuke Godai also parked his motorcycle on the roadside along the coast. He looked at the two people on the beach, paused, and then walked over.
Kawahara, sensing the movement, turned around and looked at him.
Godai Yusuke nodded at him, then bent down with his hands on his knees and looked at Natsume Mika with a smile on his face: "I'm glad you're okay!"
This was the second time that Yusuke Godai met Mika Natsume.
When they first met, the girl was crying in grief at the funeral of her murdered father, and from then on, Yusuke Godai was determined to fight against the "unconfirmed life form".
It was also after that that he turned into Red Kuuga.
Natsume Mika, who was still crying silently, looked at him again, then took out the box from her arms.
"this thing……"
After the box was opened, there was a piece of stone covered with mud inside, and the patterns on it looked like the style of super ancient ruins.
This is what Natsume Mika found.
Yusuke Godai's eyes lit up, and he inexplicably felt an urge to be interested, but he remembered that there was a super ancient man next to him, so he looked at Kawahara expectantly, waiting for an answer.
It turned out that Kawahara was also looking at him, but his eyes were a little strange.
Kawahara certainly knew where this stone came from.
This is clearly a fragment of "Golem"!
But the golem would not let him use it. Even if this guy was the first one he touched, the final owner he chose would still be Riku's Kuuga.
"Can you let me see it?"
Kawahara reached out and poked the stone fragment, and after getting a nod from Natsume Mika, he took the stone out of the box.
As a result, the next moment, he suddenly felt a familiar electric shock feeling at his fingertips.
Hey! Again?!
Realizing what was going to happen, Kawahara reflexively loosened his grip, letting the stone fall to the ground with a clatter, determined not to give the golem any free advantage!
Natsume Mika, who was holding the box, was suddenly confused.
Godai Yusuke also looked at his reaction in a daze: "Mr. Kawahara, what's wrong?"
As he spoke, he bent down and picked up the stone, and at the moment he touched it, as if he had a premonition of something, several vague images flashed through Godai Yusuke's mind.
Is that a giant...bug flying through the forest and the air?
He had a feeling that he would see that thing soon.
