??
When the sky gradually darkened, when the crescent moon had appeared in the sky, when the owner of the Sea House, Kai Yi, used the almost pleading method and promised that there would be no charge for this purchase, a little girl who had just eaten 80% full and her puppy, Tibers, was satisfied and pushed the door one after another from the seaside shop, and came to the coastal beach of the ore town where the number of people gradually increased.
"Uh-huh……"
(￣～￣) Chew!
"Tibers, people suddenly became much better... Look, many people are coming, even Uncle Jeff and Aunt Deak and the others are coming, and Rick's little four-eyed eyes are there... Ha? It seems he heard it!"
(????-)?
"But what about the fireworks that were agreed upon? Is it because it's dark now that they haven't started yet?"
(???.???)??????
Annie ignored the four-eyed guy who glared at her and just ate the special apple worth 500G that he had been fed to herself from businessman Huoan two hours ago, while taking her own Teebos around and strolling on the beach.
“Hi~?!”
"Little Annie, you lazy guy is here too? This is really rare. I haven't seen you for many days, and I thought you wouldn't come today!"
"Why, has anyone invited you to see the fireworks?"
At this time, the young lady Karen, who was holding a bottle of red liquid drink in her hand, suddenly greeted Anne, who was walking deeper and shallower on the beach, and she didn't even take off her shoes.
"invite?"
∑(′△)?!
"No one invites you..."
く(＾_?)ゝ
"Sister Kalian, you're really weird. It's not okay for someone to see the fireworks by yourself. They can come by themselves, so they can come if they want. Why do someone have to invite them?"
(*?′?`?)
Annie didn't care about Miss Karen's statement at all, and just stubbornly said!
"Yeah?"
"But I don't think anyone will remind you of this... You don't know, Lin and I have planned it. After the fireworks conference is over, we will go to your house for midnight snacks, soak in the hot spring and sleep in the big bathroom in your house, and then laugh at you for missing this show today. It's a pity to see you appear here..."
In Karen's opinion, the Fireworks Conference is specially designed for young people who talk about love to come to the beach to enhance their feelings. Of course, some old people with good feelings will come here to watch the fireworks secretly. Most children are rarely allowed to appear here on this night, and Anne, an eight-year-old girl, is of course no exception.
But now, how could she not be surprised if this little guy who hadn't seen a figure in several days suddenly appear?
“…”
(￢д￢.)
"Hmph, I heard the two brothers Gray and Brother Kay who were hiding in the shop doing some strange things yesterday and then they learned that there were fireworks here tonight, so I wouldn't miss it and be ridiculed by you!"
?(?`^'?)?
These damn guys, even though they knew there was something fun here, didn't inform her, and they wanted to join forces to go to her house to laugh at her and sleep in her big bed... Wait, Annie decided that if they really dared to go, she would definitely catch a little snake or loach and throw it into their bed or bathtub!!
"Kay and Gray?"
"It turned out that those two guys told you?"
Karen was stunned and couldn't help but look around, and soon saw two beautiful faces in the distance, but he didn't know why he didn't come to chat with his sisters on this important day, such as Perbley and Mary, but instead he was talking with his weird guys who were holding his back and talking to his ears together...
“!!”
"Not? They..."
If Little Annie hadn't said that strange thing just now, Karen would definitely not have thought it wrong, but now she looked at the two of them, for some reason, suddenly felt a chill rushing from her back to her forehead, and then she couldn't help but shivered and took a step back subconsciously.
“??”
(⊙o⊙*)
"Hey! Sister Karen, what's wrong with you?"
☆?(o*?ω?)?
"No……"
"I'm fine, Anne, you have to remember that Kay and Grey are not good people, so you'd better stay away from them in the future!!"
Karen said to Anne in panic while staring at the two men in the distance.
No wonder, no wonder she just heard Mary and Perbley say that the two of them didn't seem to invite them to watch fireworks first. It turned out that this was the case... She really never thought that a guy like them would be that kind of person!
“??”
(^～^;)ゞ
"Why? People think they are pretty good? And Brother Kay can also make delicious pizza, barbecue and shaved ice..."
?(ˉ﹃ˉ?)
"Not why! Anyway...ah?"
"Ann, Annie, what you have in your hands is the kind of ‘Super’ apple that Huoan only sells once a month, ‘Hyper’ apple or ‘Angel’ apple?”
"That's right. I've bought it a few times. I'll definitely not read it wrong? You've left it until now to eat it?"
At this time, Karen noticed the apple in Annie's hand and asked in surprise.
In her opinion, it is unlikely that a little guy who can't move when he sees something delicious to save this kind of apple from the beginning of the month to the present, so she feels a little strange.
"You said this?"
(?￣??￣??)??°
"It was given to me for free by Uncle Huo'an just now before it was dark!"
(???)?
“Send it?”
"Little guy, don't lie to me, you guy, is that profiteer Huo'an so kind?"
Although Karen herself had been given something for free by the malicious guy Huo An, she knew the nature of that guy better than anyone else. If it were her, Karen, Ellie, Lin, or a beautiful girl like Marie and Perbley, who came to his store for the first time, he would definitely give something. They had communicated and tried it a long time ago, and they also knew what purpose the other party was doing.
And if it were a little Annie, who was just eight years old, it would obviously be without their special offer of "tear-waving gifts"!
“Um…”
(?~?)
"Under normal circumstances, it's definitely not given, but today is a special day. Maybe he will give it when he is in a good mood!"
(????-)?
Today is indeed a special day, but Annie is not sure whether the other party is in a good mood or not. And Annie didn't tell the truth just now, because she promised that the other party could not tell anyone about that unless she was willing to use transformation techniques to turn herself into a puppy?
"By the way!"
!(;?o?)o
"Miss Karen, what kind of drink is this bottle in your hand? Can you give me a small sip?"
|?˙?˙)?
When Annie saw the bottle in Karen's hand, she couldn't help but feel curious when she saw the bright red liquid inside.
"I promise to just sip it!!"
?华?华?
If it is a good thing to drink, Annie promises that she will only drink a small sip, probably the kind that holds her breath and then drinks it down. She will never drink more sips when she says one!
"no!"
"Because this is wine, it is an aged wine I just bought from Uncle Deek's house. You can't drink it for children like you! You won't understand anyway. On summer nights, you have to drink and watch the fireworks while watching, which is the most enjoyable thing!"
"Ha! Okay, little guy, go play with your own first!"
At this time, Karen seemed to see that Rick was looking at him sneakily. When he saw Little Annie talking to him, he could only hesitate and keep patrolling in the distance, so why didn't he dare to lean over?
So, after she thought about it, she refused the unreasonable request of a little guy to drink, and then directly spoke up to kill the other party away to avoid being obsessed with it. Anyway, it doesn’t matter any other time. On this special day of the evening, as the most popular girl in the ore town, she must be unwilling to be occupied by a little guy. If there is anything, you can wait until the fireworks party is over, and then they will go to the big house of each other’s ranch and continue playing together for one night?
“…”
(??????)
"Isn't it just wine? What's so amazing?"
?(?`^'?)?
When she heard that it was wine and the other party drove her away, Anne turned around hatefully and walked towards the south of the beach.
Soon, she met Perbley and Mary who were staying on the beach and saying some kind of whisper.
‘I’m looking forward to it…’
‘Mary, how do you think fireworks are made?’
‘I have seen this in the book. It is said that it is made based on the principle that gunpowder will explode and different metal or metal salt compounds will produce different colors when burning.’
‘It’s really amazing, so looking forward to it…it’s getting late now, why haven’t it started yet?’
‘It’s still early, it’s not until 19 o’clock, it’s not completely dark, and now I can’t see its most beautiful appearance even if I set off fireworks…’
‘That’s true! But I’m really looking forward to it!’
‘Actually, Perbuli… No matter how beautiful the fireworks are, they only bloom for a moment. Every time I see them, I don’t know why I always feel sad…’
‘Mary, it’s better to read less sensational books. You might as well think about how to watch fireworks with Gray tonight!’
‘Grey? I’m afraid not…’
'What's wrong?'
'Didn't you notice? Gray didn't seem to have prepared a gift tonight, and so was Kay... He stayed there with Kay. Look at their appearance, and they didn't change their clothes. He seemed to want to invite girls to watch fireworks together?'
‘What?!’
‘Perbley, wait, they really don’t mean to invite us…’
‘How could it be?’
‘Will!’
‘…’
“Really…”
(lll￢▽￢)
Originally, Anne wanted to say hello to Perbley and Miss Mary, but when she heard them whispering, and after studying and discussing men like Grey and Kay, she felt bored, so she walked to the side in disgust.
‘Hey~?!’
‘Little Annie! Are you going to come and watch fireworks with us? I like watching fireworks the most. My mood suddenly became comfortable and my fatigue disappeared instantly~!’
In the distance, Sister Lin was standing on a blanket by the sea and waved her hand hard at Anne, while behind her was a guy wandering to the church, that is, Cliff.
"Forget it..."
??(??￣?￣)?????
Annie felt that the guy behind Sister Lin seemed to be unwelcoming to her and was slightly hostile. So, she didn't plan to attract people to hate her and continued to walk to the south of the beach.
‘Anne! Here!’
‘I’m going to see the fireworks with Dr. Dot. Do you need to come together?’
After a while, Annie met Miss Alice and the only doctor in the ore town of the other hospital. The two of them came in wearing nurses' uniforms and white coats. They must have just come out of the hospital.
"don't want!!"
o(′^｀)o Humph!
Although Doctor Dort was not hostile to her and seemed to welcome her over,... Annie knew that the little sister Alice who invited her was not sincerely invited her at all. That guy was just a casual shout. If she really dared to go over, she would definitely be disgusted by that cunning guy who spoke of her right and wrong, right?
So she had to continue to take her little dog, Tibers, to the southmost side of the beach, preparing to find a place where no one is available to watch the fireworks with her Tibers.
(…)
ε=(′?●))) Alas
(Tibers didn't know why his terrible little master came to a fireworks party that was obviously courting and hooking up with the female and male humans. However, after seeing the other person still looking very excited, he didn't say much, so he could only continue to follow the other person so honestly to the south.)
???
The night gradually darkened. When the dim lights on the beach came on, the fireworks party held by Ore Town on the 24th of the summer this year began. A fireworks were hit by a ship in the distance and burst into flames of brilliant fireworks.
Whoosh~! Whoosh~!
boom!!
boom!!!
At the same time, some drunkards who were not drunk had the intention of drinking finally took advantage of the explosion and launched their actions...
‘Kalan…’
‘This is the gift I have prepared for you, Champion Hot Spring Egg, please try it?’
‘Ah? It’s an egg?’
‘What, don’t you like?’
‘Not really, I just think red wine with eggs is a bit weird…’
‘Then I'll go and change the other one now?’
‘Forget it, just hot spring eggs!’
Next to the pier at the dock, Little Four-eyed Rick took out his gift and handed it to Karen's hand. He watched the other party open the exquisite gift box he had spent 100 G to go to the grocery store to pack.
‘!!’
‘Ah~!!!’
However, what Rick never thought was that when Karen opened the gift box, he saw not a hot spring egg, but a disgusting and sticky bug that was entangled together. Then, she was so scared that she trembled, and before running away, she threw it on Rick's head.
'This is……'
‘Sand, sandworm?!’
After a while of stagnation, Rick grabbed one from the bridge of his nose and looked closer for a while and finally confirmed their identities.
Sandworms are also called naked star worms, also known as sand intestines, square star worms, etc. They live in the sea area with a bottom sandy mud along the coastal mud flats. They drill out at high tide and lurk in sandy caves at low tide, so they are called sand worms. The larvae or adults of sand worms have no division phenomenon, but their muscles are relatively developed and they usually make a living by swallowing sand grains, etc. The body structure is simple. If you wash off the sand grains in the intestines, the whole worm can be eaten!
Usually, Rick often comes to the beach to dig sandworms, one is to take it back to eat it at home, and the other is to feed chickens. However, on this romantic night, packing a large ball of disgusting sandworms and allowing the girl who was originally expecting to catch it in one hand, that is definitely not something he can do.
However, Rick, who was covered in the head and face of the living sandworm that was still twisting, couldn't figure out how the good hot spring champion egg suddenly turned into a bunch of sandworms? Could it be that the grocery store owner Jeff had packaged the wrong package and handed him someone else's gift?
At this time, the same thing happened on this beach...
For example: A set meal prepared by Lin carefully for Cliff actually turned into a pot of sand after opening the lunch box? And the piece of white chocolate that Ellie mustered up to give to Doctor Doctor Doctor was suddenly a fiddler crab appeared after unpacking it, and then it was so dying. Its terrifying big claw actually clamped Doctor Doctor's nose and it made him jump straight into his feet in pain?
'No!!!'
‘Why is my game cassette missing? Gray, that's what you said has been hidden?!’
‘I don’t know, it was clearly still inside when I put it in…’
‘What about now?’
‘I don’t know! Really!’
At this time, two good friends Gray and Kay, who were preparing to play games all night long and did not intend to find girls to watch fireworks, also started to wail and exclaim.
Then soon, more unexpected situations or mischiefs occurred and were discovered. The originally harmonious Ore Town beach and seaside became chaotic, and then everyone had no intention of looking at the fireworks that were constantly shooting towards the sky.
"Yeah, yeah..."
(￣～￣) Chew!
"Ha! Sister Tibers and Sister Lin cooks a delicious meal. Brother Little Four-eyed's champion hot spring eggs are also pretty good!"
(??????)?
"And! The white chocolate made by Miss Alice is also quite good. Do you want to try it?"
(*^-^)ρ(^?^;)
Anne, who was sitting on the southernmost side of the beach, didn't care about the chaos in other people's houses in the north, just secretly ate in her own position and watched the most beautiful fireworks blooming in the sky. At the same time, she completely ignored the fact that dogs could not eat chocolate, and planned to stuff the half-leave white chocolate into the mouth of her own Teebos' dog?
'Hello!'
‘Kalian! Listen to my explanation, Kaalian?’
‘I won’t listen! Go away, I don’t want to see you!!’
‘Kalan? I was wronged…’
‘No! You are not!’
‘Woooooo…Kalan…’
'snort!'
‘…’
‘??’
‘Who is ahead, it’s Anne?’
‘!!’
‘Wait, you eat eggs, and so many eggshells?!’
‘Ah! Kalian, look, that is the hot spring egg I originally wanted to give you, there are four of them, all of which were painted with heart shape by me!’
‘Hey! Carlene and Rick, you guys are...ah! Isn’t that the white chocolate I made for Doctor Dort?!’
‘And my carefully prepared set!!’
‘!!’
‘Kay! Look, our game cartridge was thrown into the sea by her!!’
'What?!'
I don’t know how long it was in chaos, but finally, when I don’t know who came over to the south first, all the things that a bad guy did were finally revealed.
"ah……"
=????('ヮ'Three'ヮ'=????)
"that……"
!(;?o?)o
"Or what if you can hear me explain first?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
This situation is indeed a bit beyond Annie's expectations, because the night was so dark, she hid in the southmost part of the beach. She originally thought that no one would notice until the fireworks party ended, but she was so proud that she accidentally bumped into someone and caught a current situation?
(…)
~(′???`)~
(Tibers dares to use the fireworks in the sky to ensure that it is not intentionally not reminded. If so, let them explode and burn it, anyway, it is not afraid of burning!)
‘!!’
‘Anne!’
‘Don’t you explain it?’
‘That’s abominable! Doctor Dot’s nose is bleeding!!’
‘Little guy…’
However, Annie's words did not work at all. Those who were originally angry or sad had no intention of listening to her explanation at all, and they directly surrounded her with a bad expression.
"Oh well……"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"Goodbye everyone~!!"
-=????=?????(?)?
Seeing that the opportunity was not good, and seeing that the guys didn't seem to be willing to listen to their explanations and were surrounding them in silence, Annie no longer cared about anything else and jumped up from the beach blanket, then twisted her legs and ran north!
‘!!’
‘Catch her! Mary, she wants to go there!’
'stop!'
‘Damn little devil!!’
‘Quick! Perbley! Grey! You guys go block the steps of the beach and don’t let her run away from the intersection!’
‘Calen! You and Rick go over there!’
'Chase!'
‘Everyone smashed her with the sand!!’
‘!!’
‘You still dare to run? Everyone chase after me! Catch her and throw her into the sea?’
‘No! I’ll just bury her in the sand for one night and dig her tomorrow!’
‘Good idea!’
‘Catch it quickly, let’s talk about it when you catch it!’
‘Little guy, stop...’
‘Don’t run!’
Soon, after knowing the whole story, a hateful little guy used a prank to disturb the good things once a year, more than a dozen men and women were angrily chasing and blocking a hateful little girl on the beach, and made the beach, which had only the sound of fireworks explosions, become lively and noisy.
"Wow!!"
?°(°ˉ??ˉ?°)°?
"Isn't it just eating a little bit of your food, and I want to bury people in the sand..."
-=????=?????(′Д`)?
Obviously, Little Annie would definitely not have stopped listening to what they said, but just kept flying northwards.
