A young man from another world returned to his hometown.

Chapter 64 Vacation ruined, sudden punishment from the father.

Meanwhile, deep within a thicket of bushes on the mountainside, two small heads were huddled together.

One had pink hair, and the other had brown hair; both had dusty faces.

Nia hugged Miki tightly.

"Miki...Miki..."

Her baby voice was tinged with tears.

"What... what is that flashing metal shell...? It's scary..."

Miki was also terrified, but she forced herself to comfort Nia.

"It should be...some kind of magical puppet from this world..."

"What are they doing...?"

Nia looked down the mountainside.

At the foot of the mountain, there were densely packed iron shells and people dressed in orange-red clothes spraying water up the mountain.

"Nya...did we...get into trouble?"

Miki asked in a trembling voice, and Nia's tears welled up instantly.

"Waaah~ I, I didn't mean to... It was that stinky thing that killed my little fish first... and it also got the dress Mom bought me dirty..."

She tugged at her dirty little skirt, looking aggrieved.

She misses her dad and mom.

"Miki..."

Nia sniffed.

"Should we...go back?"

Miki bit her lip.

"I...I can't tear through space anymore...I don't have enough magic..."

The two little ones, who had gotten themselves into big trouble, huddled together, trembling.

Just then.

"Splash..."

Footsteps could be heard from outside the bushes.

"what?"

A young voice rang out.

"Captain! There seems to be some movement over here!"

The footsteps grew closer, and Nia and Miki held their breath in fright, not daring to tremble.

"There seems to be someone in the bushes!"

Young firefighter Zhang Ming shouted into the walkie-talkie again, then approached step by step. His training told him that this kind of place was most likely to hide trapped people who had been knocked unconscious by the smoke.

"Is anyone there? I'm a firefighter! Is anyone inside?!"

He shouted as he parted the branches of the bushes with his hands.

The sound grew closer, and Nia hugged Miki tightly.

It looks like his pink hair and little dragon horns are about to be revealed.

With a hum, the air distorted slightly, and a crack appeared.

Lin Yan and Xier appeared behind the two little ones.

"!!!"

Nia turned her head and her eyes widened the moment she saw Lin Yan.

"Dad~"

"Shh!"

Lin Yan saw the thick smoke spreading in the sky, and then looked down at the densely packed cars below the mountain.

He was immediately filled with anger, and it flared up.

Seeing his expression, Nia's little dragon horns drooped down with a snap.

"Dad...I...I..."

"Snapped!"

A precise flick on the forehead landed on Nia's little head.

"Aww~"

Nia opened her mouth wide and wailed.

Then Lin Yan released rain and teleportation magic.

"what?"

Outside the bushes, Zhang Ming parted the last layer of branches.

……

There was nothing there.

"what?"

Zhang Ming paused for a moment, looking left and right.

"strangeness……"

He scratched his helmet and muttered to himself.

"I clearly heard a noise just now..."

"Xiao Zhang! How's it going?"

The captain walked over and patted his helmet.

Zhang Ming turned around and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Captain, just now... I think I heard a noise, but when I came over, there was nothing there... Maybe I was just too tired and my eyes were playing tricks on me."

"Are you seeing things?"

The captain's expression turned serious. He slapped Zhang Ming's helmet hard, making a thud.

"Comrade Zhang, even if your eyesight is failing, you can't be careless! Lives are at stake, and no corner can be overlooked! If there are indeed trapped people, your momentary lapse in vision could cost a life!"

"Understood!"

Zhang Ming immediately stood at attention.

"Keep searching!"

"yes!"

……

Just then.

"Click~"

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and the once clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds.

"Splash!"

The raindrops started falling without warning, and the rain intensified, turning into a downpour in the blink of an eye.

"It's raining?!"

The firefighters at the foot of the mountain were stunned. The flames weakened rapidly in the heavy rain, and the wildfire, which had been spreading, visibly shrank.

"Captain! The fire is getting smaller!"

"Thank God!"

The captain looked up at the sudden downpour and found it very strange.

"...Didn't the weather forecast say it would be dry?"

……

Tiancun, the old Lin family residence.

"Bang!"

Four figures landed in the living room of the old house.

Lin Yan held one of the kittens by the scruff of its neck in each hand, like carrying two kittens that had just been pulled out of the mud.

"Bang!"

He tossed the two little ones onto the sofa.

"Sit still!"

Nia and Miki immediately sat up straight like two little quails.

Lin Yan stood in front of the two little ones with his hands on his hips, and then began his denunciation speech.

"Nia!"

"exist!"

Nia instinctively raised her little paws.

"You've gone off on a wild goose chase! You even brought your classmates along, and now you're using dragon breath here!"

"And! The most serious thing is!"

Lin Yan took a deep breath.

"You interrupted me~"

"I am precious!"

"Time for some sweet moments with my swimsuit-clad wife!!!"

"!!!"

Syl was carrying a basin of hot water out.

Her face flushed red, down to the tips of her ears.

"Honey!!!"

She reached out and covered Lin Yan's mouth.

"What nonsense are you talking about! There are children here!"

Lin Yan mumbled through Xier's fingers.

"Ugh! This is her fault, she has to take responsibility for my losses."

Syl's face turned so red it looked like it could bleed.

Nia and Miki watched longingly, and Miki secretly whispered in Nia's ear.

"Nya... Is this the legendary hero who vanquished the evil dragon and the demon king's army...?"

"Shh~"

Nia said softly.

"My parents always do this..."

"cough!"

The word "Mom" made Syl's ears turn even redder. She glared at Nia and protested sternly, "What are you muttering about, you little brat! How many times have I told you? Don't call me Mom, call me Sister! According to the lifespan of elves, I'm still a girl, absolutely not allowed to call me Mom!"

"Come here, wipe your face clean first."

Nia sidled up to him obediently, and Sil took a hot towel and wiped her little face.

"Nia, your skirt... how did it get dirty?"

Nia's lips trembled, and the tears she had managed to hold back welled up again. Feeling wronged, she threw herself into Syl's arms and cried her heart out.

"Mommy...some stinky thing killed all my little fish...and got this dress dirty...I...I just wanted to, I just wanted to protect the little fish, and the dress Mommy gave me..."

"I already told you to call me 'older sister'..."

Syl sighed helplessly and patted her little back tenderly.

Lin Yan, who was standing to the side, had been maintaining the air of a strict father, but when he heard these words, he suddenly froze.
