In the ordinary life of Crayon Shin-chan

Chapter 1442 Masked Hiroshi (Part 1)

At the Nohara family's house, Shin-chan begins his game of hide-and-seek all by himself.

"Are you all hidden yet?"

As they were talking, Shin-chan hid in the closet and opened a drawer next to it.

"Hide well~"

"Hehe~ It's really fun to play hide-and-seek by myself~" Shin-chan chuckled as he hid in the closet.

Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin with a hint of helplessness. Was it really necessary? He just wanted to slack off a little, but the way Xiaoxin was doing it made him feel a little sorry for himself.

Shin-chan didn't think much of it and continued playing by himself. However, suddenly Shin-chan seemed to discover something inside and exclaimed, "This is!"

As they were talking, Mingxu saw Xiaoxin come out carrying a headgear. How should I put it? Isn't that a wrestler's headgear? When did we get one of these at home?

Xiaoxin, holding up the mask, looked at Mingxu and asked, "Xiaoxu, do you know what this is?"

“I don’t know.” Mingxu shook his head. “However, Dad should know that this thing looks a lot like the wrestler masks we have in Mexico.”

"Oh, Dad!" Shin-chan shouted, looking at Hiroshi who was watching TV.

"What's wrong?" Hiroshi was watching TV and laughing out loud when he heard Shin-chan's voice. He paused for a moment and asked, puzzled.

"Dad, this!" Shin-chan asked Hiroshi, picking up the mask in his hand.

"Oh. It's a Mexican souvenir from Kawaguchi. Where did you find it?" Hiroshi asked, a little surprised, looking at the mask in Shin-chan's hand.

Shin-chan looked at Hiroshi excitedly: "So, Dad is the Masked Prince?!"

"Huh?" Hiroshi looked at Shin-chan with some confusion, not understanding what he was talking about. Mingxu sighed and explained to Hiroshi simply, "The Masked Prince is a villain in Action Kamen, which Shin-chan has been watching recently."

Shin-chan nodded, then played that episode on the VCR.

"Prepare to die, Dynamic!"

"Wait!" A cloud of smoke appeared on the TV screen, and then a masked figure appeared in everyone's sight. This mask looked quite similar to the one in Shin-chan's hand.

"who are you?!"

"Your Highness is masked!" Mimi exclaimed excitedly, seemingly not considering the other party an enemy.

"Huh?" Action Kamen looked at Mimi with some confusion.

Mimi explained, "The Masked Prince usually lives as part of our society, taking weekends and public holidays off. He only wears the Steel Fruit Suit, a scented cloak, and a mask when he's in battle. He's a mysterious man!"

"What?!" Action Kamen was shocked. This guy actually had a vacation! He didn't even have one! You bunch of bastards!

"Dynamic Superman, I'm going to turn you into a sweet cantaloupe!" As he spoke, the masked prince began preparing to unleash his skill.

......

Shin-chan then looked at Hiroshi: "He's the villain from Action Kamen. He's the strongest enemy!"

"Uh..." Hiroshi's lips twitched. So, you think your dad is a bad guy?

"Sigh~ I was just lucky to think that my dad was the masked prince." Xiaoxin shook his head and said.

"Shouldn't it be 'originally'?" Hiroshi corrected helplessly.

Mingxu shrugged: "So, Shin-chan, you want Daddy to wear this mask?"

“That’s right! Dad, you should put it on.” Shin-chan handed the mask to Hiroshi, somewhat excitedly.

Seeing this, Hiroshi nodded, took the mask, and put it on. Shin-chan helped tie the strap at the back of the mask, and then Hiroshi stood up, imitating what he had just seen on TV: "Hahaha~ I'm the Masked Prince, Honeydew Melon~"

"Wow! It really is you, Masked Prince! Dynamic Flying Fist!" Shin-chan immediately started playing around with Hiroshi.

Mingxu shook his head, his pen still moving, but after drawing for a while, he had to stop. Damn it, he ran out of pens again and had to go out and buy some.

Watching Hiroshi and Shin-chan playing, Mingxu called out to them, "Dad, I'm going out to buy something. I'll be back in a bit."

"Huh? Oh, okay." Guangzhi paused for a moment, looked at Mingxu, and when he saw him pointing to the pen on the table, he immediately understood and nodded: "Then go ahead, be careful on the road. It's almost lunchtime, so hurry back."

"Okay." Mingxu nodded, turned and left.

Mingxu walked to the store, his mind still replaying the scene of Xiaoxin and Guangzhi playing together, a smile unconsciously creeping onto his face. The sunlight warmed him, and the pedestrians on the street all wore relaxed expressions. Soon, Mingxu arrived at the store. Looking around, he browsed the store, checking if there was anything he needed to buy. He wasn't in a hurry to go back anyway; his mother wouldn't be home for lunch, and Guangzhi would most likely cook, so it didn't matter if it was earlier or later.

After Mingxu left, Guangzhi didn't want to play with Xiaoxin anymore, and with a loud "Ah!" he slammed down: "I've been beaten to death!"

"The masked prince isn't so easy to kill!" Shin-chan looked at Hiroshi with dissatisfaction.

"Yeah, let's play Action Kamen next time. I want to rest on Sunday." Hiroshi said, waving to Shin-chan.

Shin-chan ignored him and launched a flying kick at Hiroshi. Hiroshi shook his head, caught Shin-chan, put him down, and jumped onto the table: "Really, hahaha~ that weak flying kick doesn't work on me!"

"What did you say!" Shin-chan continued to follow, dissatisfied.

"Hami melon! Hami melon~" Hiroshi dodged while taunting Shin-chan with a grin.

So, some time passed, and Shin-chan was still full of energy, but Hiroshi didn't have the same stamina.

"Uh, take a break, I'm so tired." Hiroshi quickly stopped Shin-chan, plopped down on the ground, and said, panting a little.

"Ah~ I want to play more!" Shin-chan pouted and whine to Hiroshi, clearly dissatisfied.

Hiroshi, panting, said, "Let's play later, oh dear, it's so hot." As he spoke, Hiroshi tried to take off his mask, but for some reason, he couldn't get it off no matter what he did.

"Can't get it off? How could this be? Huh? How did it get tied into a knot?" Hiroshi reached out to untie the knot behind the mask, looking at Shin-chan with some confusion.

"Oh dear, I don't know how to tie a bow," Shin-chan said a little embarrassedly.

"Oh dear, what should we do? Oh dear, Misae, where did she go? Asahi hasn't come back yet either, this is such a hassle..." Hiroshi looked at Shin-chan helplessly. Letting Shin-chan handle it seems that this idea is not very reliable. Sigh~ I should have just let Asahi do it.

"Mom went to the sale, but Xiaoxu will probably be gone for a while. He'll check what we need at home while he's shopping and buy it for us," Xiaoxin said, shrugging.

"Sigh~ it seems they won't be back anytime soon." Hiroshi sighed when he heard Shin-chan say that.

Seeing that Hiroshi really had no intention of playing anymore, Shin-chan rubbed his stomach and said, "I'm hungry."

"It's already noon, let's cook something to eat." With that, Hiroshi got up, went to the kitchen, and opened the refrigerator to see if there were any ingredients.

Let me see~

"Wow~ Masked Man is going to show you our refrigerator!" Shin-chan exclaimed excitedly upon seeing Hiroshi's expression.

Hiroshi ignored Shin-chan and took out vegetables from the refrigerator to wash and chop them.

"Wow~ The Masked Prince is chopping green onions!" Shin-chan got even more excited. Then, watching Hiroshi finish cooking the noodles and start tossing them around, Shin-chan exclaimed again, "Wow~ The Masked Prince's jet-style noodle tossing!"
