Chapter 103: The Japanese People Are Not Ready Yet
The deathly question that came from the girl’s mouth made Uesugi Kiyoshi break out in a cold sweat instantly.
"Don’t say such things, how can we believe words like that… By the way, where did this thing come from?"
Nakasone Kazuko pointed to Uesugi Kiyoshi’s mouth, "It came from here. I just finished bathing and saw it floating out from inside."
Floating out from the mouth…
Uesugi Kiyoshi furrowed his brow, seriously pondering, his expression becoming more solemn.
"I see, it’s strange! Kazuko, for safety’s sake, you better leave quickly!"
"Really? Are you feeling guilty?"
"Haha, no way, haha…"
After reluctantly pushing Nakasone Kazuko out of the bedroom, Uesugi Kiyoshi sat cross-legged on the bed, carefully examining the unidentified object floating in the air.
At first glance, it looked like a small ball of fur made up of countless thin, soft black hairs. However, unlike other fluffy and cute creatures, it only gave off a nauseating feeling.
Especially considering it came out of his own mouth!
Uesugi Kiyoshi reached out his finger and gently touched the floating object.
The object emitted a louder sound when stimulated.
"Ah, I really want to fly!"
It must be admitted that these were indeed Uesugi Kiyoshi’s inner thoughts.
From looks to personality, Nakasone Kazuko is great in every way, but she is just too reserved. Isn’t it nice to liven up the mood and atmosphere a bit with some emotions from different people?
Of course, admitting is absolutely unacceptable!
Luckily, the windows and doors were closed, otherwise if he got blown away by the wind, his lifelong fame would be ruined.
Uesugi Kiyoshi poked at the floating object again.
This time he finally discovered the secret of the target making sounds.
Through friction among the hairs, unique sounds similar to humans can be made, and it is also a hidden secret in the heart, which could be considered strange.
Suddenly, Uesugi Kiyoshi remembered that his throat was uncomfortable yesterday, and when he coughed, there were many small particles mixed in his saliva.
At that time, he thought it was due to inhaling a lot of sand while playing on the beach. But now he realized that it should be the culprit, which is the strange thing Ode mentioned!
Holding the floating object in his hand, Uesugi Kiyoshi took out a lighter.
Under the light of the flames, even the floating things seemed to sense their fate, repeating the same phrase incessantly until the flames touched their fur.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
The piercing and sharp cries strongly assaulted Uesugi Kiyoshi’s ears, but luckily it was only for a moment, as the fluffy ball turned into a fireball, which then turned into ashes.
It was quite simple to eliminate them, but how to control their creation?
Moreover, why did they appear on him?
According to the treaty signed before, demons’ creations were not supposed to target him first, which meant there should be other floating things around now…
Uesugi Kiyoshi was about to call the research institute when the landline in his bedroom suddenly rang.
"This is Naotaro Yamazaki speaking, Your Excellency Uesugi!" The voice on the phone sounded old and obsequious.
"Oh, it’s Prime Minister Yamazaki!"
Naotaro Yamazaki’s older brother, Yamazaki Genshu, did really well at the World’s Number One Shame Tournament and got high scores. In recognition of his achievements, the Prime Minister this time, Uesugi Kiyoshi, chose Naotaro Yamazaki to help out.
Of course, the basic steps still need to be followed.
This afternoon, there will be an election for the Prime Minister in the House of Representatives. Only if Naotaro Yamazaki, who is the party leader, wins can he officially take office.
Uesugi Kiyoshi’s compliments didn’t have the expected effect, and Naotaro Yamazaki’s laughter sounded awkward.
"Um, actually, Your Excellency Uesugi, due to personal reasons, I would like to withdraw from this election…"
"…What?"
This really took Uesugi Kiyoshi by surprise. Even if he is a puppet, he is still a puppet named Prime Minister, and yet someone is actually refusing?
Not to mention Naotaro Yamazaki is not alone; his whole family is behind him. How could he do this to his supportive brother?
Just as Uesugi Kiyoshi was about to ask for the reason, his phone suddenly vibrated, and the message was from Hoshimi Rie.
According to the research institute, Naotaro Yamazaki also got infected with weird floating creatures, but unfortunately, he didn’t know anything about it.
At the recent meeting, Naotaro Yamazaki stood in front of the microphone, facing nearly ten thousand supporters, full of confidence.
Just as he bowed deeply and was about to start his speech, a floating creature floated out from his pocket, and its voice spread throughout the entire venue through the microphone.
"I am having an affair now, the name of the other person is Kimura Kanzan, a very spirited young man!"
With a hint of shyness and joy in his voice, and the supporters listened clearly, that was Naotaro Yamazaki’s voice.
The Japanese people were not ready to accept a prime minister who was having an affair and was openly gay.
Even if he doesn’t resign voluntarily, Uesugi Kiyoshi won’t let him continue.
"It’s okay, there will be other opportunities!" He comforted the disheartened elderly person on the phone, "The next prime minister will still be chosen from the Yamazaki family! As for this term, let’s give it to the Yagi family!"
………
Overnight, all the towns in Japan were covered in floating fluff balls that whispered the secrets of their owners as they danced in the wind.
"I got drunk and caused an accident last night, what should I do?"
"My hemorrhoids are so painful!"
"Those otaku are so gross, I really don’t want to shake hands with them!"
…
As the number of fluff balls increased, more and more people started collecting them, waving nets and roaming the streets.
Nobody wanted their secrets revealed in public, yet everyone wanted to uncover others’ secrets, leading to escalating conflicts.
From arguments to physical fights, a murder might soon occur as a result.
At the same time, the fluff balls were constantly talking, their voices becoming louder. With the ongoing noise pollution, the quality of sleep for the Japanese people significantly decreased.
Faced with this situation, the major political parties united together, worked in harmony, and prepared for an expulsion mission.
According to the current statistics, the more frequent lying occurs, the more inconsistent one becomes, leading to a higher quantity and frequency of hairballs forming. This is an accurate blow to politicians!
The newly appointed Prime Minister Yagido also fell victim.
Being of old age, he sometimes nods off during meetings, and if he falls asleep, there is a chance he might spit out a hairball.
During the last House of Representatives election, if he hadn’t woken up quickly and swallowed back a yawn, he might have blurted out something and followed in Naotaro Yamazaki’s footsteps!
Such incidents should not happen again; it must be stopped from the source!
However, in the face of others’ persuasion, Yagido showed great composure, and with just a few words, he managed to calm everyone down.
Because Uesugi Kiyoshi has already taken action to deal with it.
