Chapter 586 People Scare Ghosts
Chapter 586 People Scare Ghosts
"Come, this is it." Mavis led the way. "No monsters dare to come up to the roof, so it's very quiet. In fact, this place won't be exposed to sunlight before three o'clock in the afternoon. It's my secret base."
Xiaolan and Sonoko followed Mavis to the roof, which was the shady side of a tower so there was no sunlight.
Xiaolan calmly tapped Sonoko's arm, then pointed to a small area in the corner of the roof where sunlight hit the corner: If there is any danger later, we will run into the sunlight.
Dracula's daughter, a 117-year-old female vampire, was enough to make the two tremble with fear based on the information they knew so far. However, the other party did not seem to realize that they were human beings, but just regarded them as two little ghosts.
Sonoko nodded, and the two followed Mavis to the roof. Mavis chose a place to sit down, holding his chin with his hands and looking at the gloomy forest in the distance.
"Every year on my birthday my dad would find a bunch of monsters to celebrate, but this is the first time I've seen monsters of a similar age. Where are you from? Are you from far away?"
Xiaolan and Sonoko did not sit down with them because it would be inconvenient to escape if they sat down.
"Well, it's indeed far away. This is also the first time we see a vampire." Xiaolan said reluctantly.
Although she vaguely remembered that one day Martin said that he was a vampire.
"Really! Have you ever seen humans?" Mavis asked excitedly and curiously.
Xiaolan was a little nervous: "Of course I have seen it."
Sonoko added: "We often scare humans."
For example, I scared Kogoro Mouri yesterday morning.
"Really? That's amazing!" Mavis' eyes lit up and he looked at them with admiration, leaving the two of them confused.
"By the way, my name is Mavis, you can just call me Xiaomei, what about you?"
"I...just call me Xiaolan."
"I'm Sonoko."
"Lan! Sonoko!" Mavis, who had just been sitting on the roof, appeared in front of the two of them like teleporting, holding each of their hands: "What do humans look like? Do they only have one head? Will they grow a second head after getting injured? Do humans eat garlic every day? Are humans really so vicious that they hold torches and pitchforks every day?"
"...Huh?" The two girls were confused by the question.
Mavis also calmed down a little: "Sorry, I seem to be a little too excited."
Xiaolan, who was hiding under the bed sheet, blinked her eyes: "Xiaomei, have you... never seen a human being?"
"Yeah..." Mavis nodded distressedly: "I have always wanted to see the human world, but my father won't let me go out. He tells me every day that the world outside is dangerous."
The next second, Mephis raised his head excitedly again: "But when I was 88 years old, he promised me that as long as I wait until I reach adulthood, he would allow me to go to the human world. I am really looking forward to that day!"
What to expect? A buffet?
The two girls looked at each other. No wonder their disguises had never been seen through. It turned out that this female vampire had never seen a human being.
"Wait a moment." Sonoko suddenly said, pulling Xiaolan to the side, a little further away from Mephisto, and whispered to Xiaolan.
"Look, Xiaolan, although this female vampire is 117 years old, several generations older than my grandmother, she is the type who is too well protected and has a much younger mental age than us." Sonoko said, while secretly glancing at Mephis, who looked over here in confusion. From his confused expression, it seemed that Mephis couldn't hear them talking. "Why don't we continue to fool her?" Sonoko suggested, "Just tell her that humans are eight-armed, three-meter-eight-meter-tall monsters who eat three vampires for a meal. That way, she will never dare to go to the human world and do bad things in her life."
"Is it really okay to let her live a lie for the rest of her life?" Xiaolan felt a little sympathetic: "I don't think she has any ill will towards humans."
"Xiaolan, protect ourselves first." Yuanzi said anxiously: "My cell phone has no signal yet. I can't even call that person for help."
"What is this?" Suddenly, Mavis, who was waiting a little bored, appeared beside the two of them, and looked down at the phone in Sonoko's hand curiously.
"Ah!" Yuanzi, who was secretly planning to deceive Mavis, was already feeling guilty. Mavis' sudden appearance scared her so much that her feet went weak and she fell, sliding down the sloping roof.
"Yuanzi!" Xiaolan rushed over anxiously and grabbed Yuanzi's arm, but she couldn't stop the car, and they both slid down the roof together.
"Help!" Sonoko was already very scared. When she looked up, she found that behind Xiaolan, it was Mavis who pounced on her, and he looked like a predator: "Xiaolan!"
However, Mavis only grabbed the arms of Sonoko and Xiaolan, and quickly lifted the two people who had already slipped off the roof.
"Sorry." Before the two of them thanked him, Mavis apologized first: "Did I scare you?"
"It's okay. Thank you for pulling us up." When Xiaolan thanked him, her eyes fell on Mavis's hand. Suddenly, she found a red mark on the back of her hand: "Ah, your hand!"
When he slid out of the roof, the garden was just in the sunlight, and the back of Mavis's hand was exposed to the sun.
"It's just sunburn, it's okay, it will be fine after a while." Mavis didn't take it seriously: "Just don't tell my dad... Okay?"
Suddenly, she looked at the garden suspiciously: "Are you... okay after basking in the sun?"
It’s not that all monsters can’t bask in the sun, but she remembered that ghosts, like vampires, must avoid sunlight.
"Um... this..." Sonoko thought to herself, 'Oh no, I'm done', but she stammered, "I put on sunscreen, it works really well... I'll bring you a bottle next year when I come."
"Emm..." Mavis still looked suspicious, and looked at Sonoko and Xiaolan repeatedly: "What kind of monsters are you?"
"Little, little ghost." The two girls stammered.
Mavis crossed his arms and closed his eyes: "Ghosts are floating, they won't slip or fall, and they are more afraid of sunlight than vampires."
The child is just ignorant, not stupid.
"Well... I'm too fat to float..." Yuanzi was still being stubborn.
"What are you?" This obviously couldn't satisfy Mavis' curiosity, so she grabbed Xiaolan's bed sheet and pulled it hard.
Under the bed sheet is a human anatomy model of the health room, the same model as the Seven Bizarre Events at Teitan Elementary School.
"Ahhhhhhh——!" When the bed sheet was pulled back, Xiaolan, who mistakenly thought her human identity had been exposed, let out a scream of fear.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh——!" After tearing off the bed sheets, Mavis saw a scarlet 'vampire' without eyelids and lips, and with his skin peeled off. His screams were louder and more miserable than Xiaolan's.
