With the help of the enthusiastic Tokai classmate, Hirata and Ayakoji arrived at the laboratory building and rang Professor Watanabe's office.

"Please come in."

The professor's voice rang inside the room.

Hirata and her senior sister entered the office with the sign at the door with "Watanabe" written on it.

An elderly man wearing glasses and half-white hair was lying on the table to write something. Hearing the steps of the two people, he raised his head.

"You are Hirata-kun?"

The old man, who was probably in his sixties or seventies but in good spirits, stood up and walked towards Hirata with a smile on his face.

"Yes, I am Mizunai Hirata. Hello, are you Professor Watanabe?"

Hirata asked him politely.

"Yes, I am Watanabe Fumitsu. You can call me Professor Watanabe. If you find it troublesome, you can just call me Watanabe."

Professor Watanabe seemed very funny and said to the two with a smile: "Name is just a name, so don't pay too much attention."

“Yes, you said it.”

Hirata replied quickly.

Although I can't figure out the professor's temperament, I seem to be a good person to talk to.

After Hirata introduced Senior Ayakoji to him, he asked him: "Professor Watanabe, are you free now? I have something here and I want you to help me identify it. We agreed on the phone before."

"Of course there is no problem. After all, it was introduced by Kayuanzaki. My father and I have worked together before! It's said that I haven't seen him for a long time. Are you a student of Kayuanzaki?"

Professor Watanabe asked Hirata.

Senior Sister Ayanoji quickly replied: "Yes, Sanchengjun and I are both students supervised by Hayuanqi. Sanchengjun should be regarded as the most satisfying student of Hayuanqi Supervised!"

There is a sense of pride between words.

"Is that true? Since I was recognized by that kid Kaguenzaki in Kendo, it should look very exciting. How about it, should I apply to our University of Tokyo?"

After hearing Aya Koji's words, the professor became interested in Hirata and asked him with great interest.

"this......"

Hirata glared at Senior Sister Ayakoji who was smirking with her mouth covering her mouth, "I haven't thought about this yet."

"Is that so? Are you a high school student? Since you are a high school student, you should have thought of your college entrance examination on the first day."

Professor Watanabe patted Hirata on the shoulder and said earnestly: "If you want to apply for the University of Tokyo, I can provide you with some convenience. For example, when applying for my major, although there are very few people, the employment is unexpectedly vast!"

"Uh...I'll think about it."

Hirata said with a lot of laughter and cry.

He originally thought that the professor gave himself a green light in the college entrance examination admissions for the sake of Supervisor Heyuanqi.

But looking at the other person's appearance, it seems that he just simply bewitched himself from applying for the other person's major.

I guess this professor would say that when he sees anyone.

Hirata muttered in her heart, touching her chin.

"Okay, let's stop talking. Sanchengjun, take out the things you asked me to help identify. By the way, is it an insect? It's not the kind of fake and inferior product that can be seen at a glance, right?"

The professor asked Hirata curiously.

The counterfeit and inferior products he mentioned are a very unique biological counterfeiting technology in Japan.

Assemble the body parts of various creatures to create legendary creatures.

For example, Kappa or other strange creatures recorded in the legend.

There are various specimens of water monkeys or legendary mermaids in Japanese shrines or museums.

This specimen is placed in a glass cabinet for tourists to visit.

The essence is assembled by the former unscrupulous businessmen using various animal body models, wire or other materials.

This kind of thing can only be seen by ignorant tourists and those with a little knowledge of biology can easily see the traces of fraud on it.

What the professor is talking about is this kind of artificial creature.

"Haha, no, I have never seen this insect species, and I have not found any relevant information on the Internet, so I can only trouble you."

Hirata said as she took out a special box for insects.

Gently uncover the box and show it to Professor Watanabe.

Professor Watanabe put on gloves, carefully took the insects, and looked at them carefully.

"This is......"

Professor Watanabe's brow frowned.

He picked up the magnifying glass from the table and carefully observed the insects he took from Hirata.

"The insect body is about 30 cm long, with a light tea-brown body. There is a concave and a long dark red heart-shaped spot in the center of the back of the fore chest. The forewings are short, the hind wings are long, and the end of the abdomen is nearly spindle-shaped. The forefoot is to dig the foot, the inner outer edge of the leg joint is relatively straight, and the lack of carving is not obvious. There are 3 to 4 spindles on the inner edge of the tibial joint of the hind foot..."

Professor Watanabe explained the characteristics of the insects he had carefully examined.

“Um…”

He hesitated for a moment and said, "If we infer from general common sense, this should be an arthropod, similar to an insect of the Mole Cricket Family, but... it's strange."

Professor Watanabe shook his head, with a confused expression on his face.

"Professor, is there any problem?"

Professor Watanabe thought about it and explained to Hirata: "Although I speculate that it is an ordinary orthoptera insect and a common arthropod, it is not exactly the same, at least the head is completely different."

"head?"

The senior sister and Hirata were stunned.

‘Yes, according to my understanding, the head of this insect will not be like this. At least its characteristics do not conform to the mole cricket creatures I mentioned above. Although there are more than 110 mole cricket orthoptera insects all over the world, they should not conform to the characteristics I mentioned above.”

The professor looked puzzled.

"professor......"

Senior Hirata and Ayakoji wanted to look at each other again, and Hirata asked Professor Watanabe, "Can you tell us directly what the problem is? You said too many terms and we don't understand it."

"oh......"

Professor Watanabe came back from his trance and explained to senior Hirata and Ayakoji: "Specifically, this insect is more like a combination of two types of insects."

"Combination?"

"Yes, fruit fly and a mole cricket are a combination of organisms."

The professor said that he understood.

He thought about it, apologized to senior sister Hirata and Ayakoji, walked to the bookshelf on the wall, took out a large book from it, and took it over.

Turning to one of the pages, pointing to the illustration above, he said to Hirata: "I felt familiar since I just now, but now I remember that this kind of thing is very similar to the legendary 'big fly'."

Professor Watanabe pushed the glasses frame, and a shimmer flashed on the glasses.

"Big fly?"

It was the first time Hirata heard this name, and he scratched his head in confusion. He asked Professor Watanabe carefully: "I don't understand very much. Do you mean big fly?"

"Forehead......"

Professor Watanabe was choked and put the heavy books on the table.

At the same time, I murmured in a low voice: "Young people today really don't have the ability to see me holding the old man so hard, I don't help me hold the book. Alas... The young people in this era are getting less and less like ours."

Although he was muttering in a low voice, he could hear it clearly by senior Hirata and Aya Koji.

Hirata's face was covered with black lines.

By the way, this old professor...why does it look so unreliable?

"This book is not a serious insect science book, but rather tends to the legendary insects, insects recorded in the digests of "Ancient Times".

The professor said seriously.

The so-called "Kushiji" is a strange story book from the Edo period, which records the legendary deeds and customs of various parts of Japan.

"There was once a kind of insect called the Big Fly."

"I remembered it!"

The senior sister suddenly made a very tone sound from her mouth, which scared Pingtian.

"I remembered something, Kaoru."

"I remember seeing the big fly story."

The senior sister tilted her head and recalled the story she had seen a long time ago, "It should be a story about a businessman who saw a fly-like creature in her home."

The senior sister told the stories she had seen.

A Yu, a businessman's maid, is usually very frugal.
