Chapter 164: Gudako's Misfortune
Chapter 164: Gudako's Misfortune
Looking at the orange hair on the shield, Bai Song's throat choked. He could already imagine the gruesome scene of Gudako being scalped, covered in green blood. The thought alone sent shivers down his spine.
He had indeed mentioned that the person with orange hair was Gudako, but he hadn't explicitly stated that the hair named Gudako belonged to her! Bai Song began to realize that things might not be as straightforward as he initially thought.
Bending down to pick up the black piece of cloth hanging from the shield, Bai Song carefully pinched it in his hands. Just as he was about to sniff it out of habit, he hesitated, realizing that it might be a piece of Gudako's torn skirt.
"This thing... looks like remnants of her skirt?" Bai Song said, coming to this realization. His face immediately contorted as if he were disgusted. He considered throwing the piece of fabric away, but hesitated for a moment. In the end, he couldn't resist his collector's instincts and tucked it into his pocket. Collecting mementos had become a habit of his.
The torn skirt fragment had clear signs of being forcibly torn off, indicating a brutal act. It seemed that C Chulainn had suffered another beating from Spike, but Bai Song couldn't determine his current condition just from the torn skirt.
Thinking further, if C Chulainn had been brutally beaten, then what about Gudako, who supposedly had her scalp torn off?
This frightening possibility filled Bai Song's mind with horrifying thoughts. He considered the worst-case scenario and found it hard to bear. His imagination ran wild, painting a terrifying picture of what might have happened to Gudako.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Song turned his attention to Spike, who was trying to boast about its achievements.
"Alright, Spike, be honest with me. Did you tear Gudako... that girl in white... with your bare hands?" Bai Song questioned Spike, seeking the truth.
Spike scratched its not-so-bright head, attempting to describe the scene. However, its limited brain capacity made it challenging to convey the events effectively.
Spike surveyed the surroundings and noticed Tom, who was massaging his bruised head. An idea struck Spike why not replicate the scene to show Bai Song how it got the "Gudako" hair?
Without waiting for Bai Song's response, Spike placed its left hand flat in front of it, palm facing down. Its right hand, palm vertical, was positioned beneath the left hand, and its fingertips touched the left palm, freezing in a pause gesture.
Then, Spike went to the shield's side and plucked the fake hair stuck on it. With one swift motion, Spike slapped it onto Tom's head.
"Ow~!" Tom's head nearly ended up inside his chest due to the forceful blow. Fortunately, he managed to withstand the impact, with only half of his head disappearing into his body, leaving his eyes and above visible.
Bai Song was ready to stop Spike's actions but hesitated, curious about what Spike was up to.
To his surprise, Tom blinked a few times, then grabbed his own tail with his left hand and the orange hair on his head with his right hand. He attempted to pull the lower half of his head out from his chest.
Bai Song couldn't help but find Tom's actions amusing, wondering why he was holding his tail while trying to pull his head out. Tom had a simple reason for this seemingly strange move he didn't want to be lifted off the ground.
He knew that pulling his head forcefully from his chest would exert a force greater than his body weight, possibly lifting him off the ground. So, to counteract this, he held onto his tail tightly, preventing himself from being lifted.
However, Tom seemed to have overlooked one crucial factor the force his head needed to endure. With all his might, he pulled the orange wig on top of his head, successfully pulling his head out of his abdomen.
But he had exerted too much force.
"Rip~!!!" The sound of tearing paper echoed from his head as the orange wig was forcefully pulled off, along with Tom's own fur.
Feeling the excruciating pain from his head, Tom's face turned as red as a heated iron, and his mouth puffed up as if he were holding his breath.
Finally, Tom couldn't bear it any longer and let out a piercing scream.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!" His loud and agonizing scream echoed through the park, akin to listening to ASMR before being interrupted by a loud advertisement the next moment. It was enough to scare the soul out of someone.
Thankfully, Bai Song had the foresight to cover his ears with his hands when he saw Tom's fur being forcefully pulled off. Otherwise, his eardrums might have been ruptured by the deafening sound.
The sudden outburst startled not only the birds perched on the trees in the park but also many Fuyuki City citizens who were strolling in the area. They were all taken aback by the loud scream.
If Tom had made such a scream on a European battlefield during World War II, the Allied forces might have mistaken it for a Stuka dive bomber of the German army, making another round of deadly attacks.
Fortunately, Tom's loud scream came and went quickly, lasting only three seconds before it ended.
"Pia~pia~pia~." As soon as Tom's scream stopped, Spike, who was planning to demonstrate how Gudako had pulled off the wig earlier, couldn't help but applaud, impressed by Tom's performance.
Even before Spike could force Tom to scream, Tom took matters into his own hands he was one fierce cat!
