At some point, it started to rain.

What was still a light drizzle suddenly became heavier.

The raging raindrops, seemingly impatiently pouring down on the scorched earth, were not only testing the hardness of the road, but also the elasticity of the skin of some unfortunate people who had no rain gear and were about to run wild in the rainstorm.

Unfortunately, I happened to be the unluckiest of the hapless ones.

My name is Ye Bu Si, and I'm a high school student who often encounters weird things.

Two weeks ago, I was forced to go to Japan because of the incident of "Feet to the Door".

The reason is simple, because I am cursed, and at the same time I am involved with an innocent girl.

Based on the information I had gathered, I guessed that I would probably have at least two months to live, so I resolutely took the two black boxes that I had found in the previous incident, which were supposed to be the culprits, to Japan, where they came from, hoping to find some clues to lift the curse.

However, two weeks later, from the moment I got off the plane, I asked everywhere where the Japanese "Usa" was, and I kept asking from Tokyo to Nara, but no one knew about it.

When I asked where the word "MadeinUsa" was before World War II, all the Japanese people were at a loss, and I didn't have the slightest clue, and I was about to go crazy with anxiety.

Then, I encountered this strange rain that made my mood worse.

So, I hid in the broken tavern that I scolded and cursed thousands of times in the future.

Because everything that gives me a headache starts with this tavern.

However, if God gives me a chance to do it all over again, if I choose again, it is not possible, but absolutely, I will still choose to walk in, after all, the secret of the black box also starts from here, and it is solved step by step by myself.

In fact, to be serious, I am a misanthropy, I am not very afraid of death, and even because I have experienced too much pain of life and death, I have begun to expect death to come soon.

But I clearly knew that Zhang Wenyi was innocent, so I tried to find a way to get rid of the curse, hoping to at least save her.

Life is unbearable light, there is also unbearable weight, my life is too heavy, really too heavy, maybe I die, so that I can take a good breath......

"Need something?" An Obasan, who was in his fifties, walked from the inner hall to the counter, handed me a dry towel and asked.

Suddenly, I shuddered.

The voice of the Obasan was low and hoarse, like an ancient well covered with moss, cold and damp, and it was really chilling to let the sound pour into the ears without inadvertently.

"Give me a glass of juice, thank you."

After hesitating, I reached for the towel and wiped my wet hair vigorously.

"What a weird rain."

The Obasan muttered as he stared at the rain outside the window, showing no signs of abating.

"What's weird?"

"Have you ever seen such a heavy rain and the sun so hot at the same time?"

Only then did I notice that the sun was not covered by dark clouds at all, and the brilliant and warm light fell to the ground through the rain curtain, which was definitely a rare spectacle.

But it's such a spectacle, but for some reason it gives people a weird feeling, just like wearing black trousers and having to put on white casual shoes, it doesn't match, and even, weird......

"It's strange, it stands to reason that the reason why it rains in the sun is that there is heavy rain nearby, and because of the strong wind, part of the rain is blown from the rain area to the sunshine area, but how can it be so outrageous? It's raining hard now! What a defy to the laws of physics! I scratched my head and muttered in Chinese.

As if she understood my words, the Obasang grinned and asked me, "Boy, are you Chinese?" Have you ever heard of the legend of a fox marrying a girl? ”

"You mean, the folk tale that the sun and rain represent the fox marrying a wife?"

"Not bad."

Obasan looked out the window blankly, and then continued slowly: "Foxes are very spiritual creatures, they are cunning and ever-changing. Whenever it is time to marry a bride, she will take on a human form and summon the sun and rain to warn ignorant and curious humans to avoid conflict as early as possible.

"Unfortunately, humans are a stupid and inquisitive race, and many people ignored this warning, and some even deliberately hid in the neighborhood to peek, and finally provoked the foxes to rage and kill everyone who peeked.

"So until now, there are still many people who will warn their children not to go out if they encounter the sun and rain!"

I took a sip of juice, closed my eyes and stretched comfortably, and said, "Old woman, there should be another version of the legend of the fox marrying a girl, right?" The ones that can take on human form are fox demons, not the normal fox variants that can be seen at the zoo.

"It is said that fox demons were originally mountain gods, but due to their long-term fusion with animal spirits, they eventually became youkai. In the eyes of the Japanese, the monsters look like foxes, so they are confused with foxes. ”

After a slight pause, I added, "And the so-called fox marriage is not an intermarriage between their own clans at all. In order to obtain more powerful demon power, the fox demons often persecute nearby humans and offer young and energetic virgins to them, and if the local people do not agree or resist, the fox demons will let the place drought for many years, and will forcibly snatch away the girls they like. ”

With a smug look, I looked at the stunned Obasan, and said slowly: "Sun rain, it's not that the fox wants to marry a girl or a wife, but the rain when the fox demon brings back the girl he snatched, right!" ”

It took a long time for that Obasang to come to his senses. She stared at me with her yellow eyes, and finally grinned and laughed.

"Boy, you haven't found a place to stay today! I also run a homestay here, do you want to consider living here? Maybe something interesting will happen! ”

I also laughed: "Will it happen to see a fox marrying a girl?" ”

Obasan smiled wickedly and said mysteriously, "Hey, maybe you can really meet it......"

"Interesting. If I had been cheaper, I would have lived. ”

The sun rains until the sun sets.

After nightfall, after dinner, I took a comfortable bath, and then got into the quilt early and went to sleep.

For some reason, I always care about the rain in the afternoon......

And then there was the suspicious Obasan, whose dim and godless eyes, though inconspicuous, were annoying, as if she had seen through all the secrets......

And her smile, the layer of false smile piled up with crumpled old skin, always seemed to be thoughtful, as if to suggest something.

Alas, a lot of boring doubts accumulated in the brain and there is nowhere to vent, coupled with the already very annoying mood, I can't sleep for a long time.

It's almost midnight, right?

I rolled over, decided to get rid of all my thoughts, and went to sleep in earnest, but now my hearing was unusually sharp.

It was a quiet night, and the rain had stopped, and the rainwater that had accumulated on the roof of the second-hand house began to drip down the eaves and onto the ground.

Syllable...... Syllable...... Syllable......

One drop, two drops, three drops......

Whew, what a comfortable feeling.

I remember not knowing which celebrity once said that everyone has hobbies, and the more hidden hobbies, the more you can see a person's personality.

Some hobbies are not even aware of by him, just as some people see the blank space between the English letters A and O, and have an urge to fill it.

No one is complete without a hobby!

I have a hobby since I was a child, I like the night rain, especially when I sleep, lying in bed, and then quietly listening to the rain on the roof and window, then my nerves will involuntarily relax, the whole body will also relax, and then my heart will be inexplicable, full of a feeling that is called moved by the world.

It's really a boring hobby......

Oops, less and less sleepy, I opened my eyes irritably, trying to get up and pour a glass of water, when suddenly, a small sound came into my ears.

What is it?
