Chapter 4 4. Strange location

Now the two of them were standing at the crossroads in front of the white wooden house, and there was a red object coming towards them from Kyobashi. Because of the snow-white surroundings, the red object stood out even more. "Yukiko, come to me quickly, the rabbit is hurt." Miko Chaijin pulled Cupid to hide in front of the window of the white wooden house, and Yukiko also walked quickly to his side. The red object was approaching them through the snow, and after a while, they had already seen clearly what it was. "Yukiko, isn't that Santa Claus?" "Ah! Yes! But why are there so many people chasing him?"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Yukiko couldn't help frowning and answered. Santa Claus, wearing a red hat, wearing a red suit, and carrying a big bag behind him, ran at the front. He was probably a Christmas promotional staff of a certain store. But why did he run this way?Why are there so many people chasing after him? As the group got closer, they gradually heard the shouts of those who were chasing them. "Hey! Catch him! Catch that Santa!" "Jin, they seem to want us to catch that Santa Claus, do you think he did something bad?" "If he really did something bad, the police will naturally arrest him. Cupid, shhh! Now is not the time for you to appear on stage, just leave this kind of thing to the police."

No matter what Yuzi Chaijin said, Cupid just didn't listen. It stamped its feet and wanted to run forward, barking at Santa Claus non-stop. As Santa Claus drew nearer to them, the group chasing him shouted louder all around: "Hey! Catch that Santa!" The traffic policeman at the crossroads heard it, and immediately ran towards Santa Claus. At the same time, two or three spectators rushed towards Santa Claus "bravely". However, at this time, Santa Claus suddenly said: "Ah! Don't disturb us!" He stopped, and while pushing away the onlookers, he said, "Hey, the car... well, just park there, um, is the camera ready? Wait a minute and take a good shot of the chase just now."

This strange remark caused the spectators to look at the crossing. A car was parked five or six meters away from the intersection, and a camera poked its head out of the window. "Yamazaki, this is the road, and we will be here soon. Is everything ready?" "OK!" Hearing what the other said, the traffic policeman rushed to Santa Claus and wrestled with him in the snow. "So it's making a movie!" "Well, it's on location!" "Then that policeman is also an actor!" "It's interesting, let's go over and have a look."

The people who were chasing Santa Claus just now were so excited that they wanted to watch a movie. Suddenly, a man wearing a knitted shirt and suit pants, and yelling some words that everyone couldn't understand, also joined the ranks of fighting. Santa Claus in red, traffic cops in black uniforms, and men in knitted shirts wrestling in the snow are hilarious. After watching for a while, someone hugged their stomach and laughed loudly and said: "That's funny, it must be a comedy." After a long time, the fight finally ended, and the man in the knitted shirt fell on the snow without moving.

Immediately afterwards, the car that had been waiting on the other side also drove up to them. "Sorry for the inconvenience caused to everyone, please forgive me." The traffic policeman took off his hat, saluted everyone politely, and then jumped into the car. However, when Santa was about to get in the car, Cupid, who had been stomping just now, suddenly broke free from Miko Chaijin's hand and quickly ran towards Santa. "Ah! No! Cupid, Cupid..." Yuzi Chaijin hurriedly chased after him and picked up one end of the chain, but Cupid was already biting Santa's ass tightly.

"Let go of me! Let go of me quickly! Boy, what, what should I do?" The car moved forward slowly, Santa Claus was holding on to the car with both hands, a fierce Cupid was hanging on his buttocks, and Yuzi Chaijin was pulling on Cupid's chain with all his strength. In an instant, Santa's clothes were torn apart with a "snap", and a piece of cloth remained in Cupid's mouth. At the same time, the car drove away at full speed and disappeared at the other end of the road. "Is this dog a movie actor?" "Also, what happened to the man who fell there? Hey! Why did you leave an actor here?"

The spectators circled around and pointed at the man who had passed out on the snow. At this moment, a policeman approached from the Kyobashi side. "Did you see a man dressed as Santa Claus? He should be coming this way..." The policeman didn't finish his sentence, and suddenly yelled at the man lying on the ground: "Ah! Yamamoto, what's wrong with you? Why are you dressed like this?" He ran to the man and shook him. After a while, the man came to his senses and said: "Kimura, I was tricked, a strange person knocked me down and stole my uniform..."

"what!" Miko Chaijin gave a low cry, turned his head and looked at Yukiko. "and then?" "Later I chased here and saw the fake police fighting with Santa Claus. I wanted to go up and catch him, but the fake police teamed up with Santa Claus and beat me together." Hearing this, Yukiko called Miko Shibajin in a low voice and said: "Ah Jin, so you weren't filming a movie just now!" "Well, it seems so, but who is that Santa Claus?" The man in the knitwear also asked the policeman Kimura who followed him the same question. Upon hearing the policeman Kimura's answer, Miko Chaijin and Yukiko turned pale.

"That Santa Claus is the well-known phantom thief—Phantom Stranger. He stole all the gems in the Tianyintang Gem Shop. If you caught him just now, it would be a great achievement." The phantom monster and the fake police pretended to be filming and fled openly in front of everyone. And the one who sees through all this is President Ikegami's pet dog - Cupid.
