In the ordinary life of Crayon Shin-chan

Chapter 1377 The Vacuum Cleaner War (Part 1)

In her dream, Misae looked at the handsome bearded man in front of her.

"Hello~"

"Ah, you wouldn't happen to be Keanu Reeves, would you? That's amazing!" Misae exclaimed excitedly as she looked at him.

"I want to give you a suitable gift, close your eyes~" Keanu said, squatting down and rummaging inside the box.

Misae's face was full of excitement: "Ah~ I'm so happy, what is it?"

"Come on, open your eyes," Keanu said to Misae as he stood up, holding his things.

"Wow, what's this?" Misae looked at the vacuum cleaner in the other person's hand, her face full of confusion.

Keanu chuckled and said, "A dream fat vacuum cleaner, choo choo train! I think you'll like it."

"What are you talking about? I've already lost weight, I don't need this at all!" Misae was still being stubborn, but her eyes looked very tempted.

“No, I think you absolutely need this right now!” Keanu looked at Misae with a serious expression.

"Huh? Oh my god! When did I turn into three layers of fat?! I've decided to use that machine!" Misae said anxiously, looking at her once slender figure that had suddenly changed.

"OK! It's starting! Turn on the switch!" A powerful suction came, and Misae felt her own fat being absorbed, but after a short while, the machine turned red-hot and started emitting white smoke.

"Oh, how could this be? This machine can't get rid of your triple layers of fat!" Keanu was also somewhat surprised.

"Oh no? Please, at least help me get rid of a layer of fat! Please, please!" Misae pleaded, but somehow, she woke up from her dream. Looking at Shin-chan holding a vacuum cleaner beside her, Misae was silent: "What are you doing?"

"I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of your triple layer of fat," Xiaoxin said calmly. Mingxu watched him silently from the side. This kid won this vacuum cleaner in a lottery and has been carrying it around playing with it everywhere. Sigh~

"Sigh, if we could just vacuum it up, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble." Misae sighed as she looked at Shin-chan's childish expression. Then, as if she had just remembered something, she asked in confusion, "Wait, where did the vacuum cleaner come from? Isn't this the one we have?"

"When we were walking to the supermarket, there was a lucky draw going on, and Shin-chan won the grand prize!" Hiroshi said excitedly. "Shin-chan won the top prize: a cyclone vacuum cleaner."

"Huh? Really? Good job, Shin-chan! The vacuum cleaner we're using at home isn't working well right now, and it's been giving me a real headache. Look." As she spoke, Misae turned on the vacuum cleaner, and its power wasn't as strong.

"Oh, thank you, Shin-chan." Misae hugged Shin-chan, her eyes shining as she looked at the vacuum cleaner in front of her.

"Let me make this clear first, this is mine, because I won it in a lottery," Shin-chan said smugly.

“But you don’t need a vacuum cleaner, do you?” Hiroshi said to Shin-chan with a hint of helplessness.

"I need it!" Shin-chan shouted without hesitation.

"Oh, so what are you going to do with the vacuum cleaner?" Mingxu asked, raising an eyebrow as he looked at Xiaoxin.

Shin-chan looked at Mingxu's bag lying to the side, took out a camera from it, and said, "Hehe~ Vacuum cleaner~ Not bad, not bad, this angle is great~"

"Hey, hey, hey, all you mean by 'useful' is playing house with this?" Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin speechlessly. I knew Nini was influenced by Xiaoxin!

"Shin-chan~ Can I borrow this for a moment?" Misae asked Shin-chan cautiously.

"No way." Without hesitation, Xiaoxin grabbed the vacuum cleaner and left.

"...Could you vacuum the floor for Mommy?" Misae continued to ask.

"Well, I don't know either~" Shin-chan picked up the vacuum cleaner and started vacuuming the floor casually, but he wasn't really vacuuming the floor; he was just playing around with it.

"You brat, ah, as expected of the latest model, the suction power is really super strong!" Misae looked at Shin-chan with a bit of resentment, but for the moment she was helpless. Looking at the suction power of the vacuum cleaner, Misae was extremely envious.

Just then, Kui crawled out of the bedroom. Shin was just about to vacuum the floor in that direction. Kui was startled and dodged to the side. Shin also quickly shrank back, but accidentally knocked the milk powder can off the table and onto the floor.

The milk powder spilled out, and Mingxu hurriedly picked up the milk powder can. Looking at the less than half full of milk powder left, Mingxu felt a little regretful; what a waste.

Shin-chan looked at the milk powder on the ground and started vacuuming it up.

"Wow~ everyone, look at this suction power! It's so easy that even a child can use it, and compared to the old model, it can save almost half the electricity bill!" Misae said unconsciously in a TV shopping voice as she looked at the suction power.

"Why are you using a shopping channel tone to introduce it?" Hiroshi looked at Misae speechlessly. Then Shin-chan continued to play with the vacuum cleaner and even ran to the yard to start vacuuming the grass.

"Wow, vacuuming the yard is so easy~" Shin-chan looked at the vacuum cleaner in his hand, his face full of pride.

Mingxu looked at him speechlessly: "If the stone gets sucked in, the vacuum cleaner will break."

"Yes, it'll break like that!" Misae said nervously.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiaoxin, as if he hadn't heard, pointed the vacuum cleaner nozzle at a pebble the size of a pigeon's egg by the flower bed, and slammed it down. A crisp "click" was heard, accompanied by a screeching sound from inside the vacuum cleaner. The previously smoothly running machine suddenly squeaked twice like a duck being strangled, then emitted a wisp of smoke and came to a complete stop.

"Ouch!" Misae's scream almost lifted the roof off. She rushed over, snatched the vacuum cleaner, and examined it from all angles. "It's a brand new machine that I just won! Why won't you listen to advice, you child!" She was so angry that the veins on her forehead were throbbing. She pointed at Shin-chan's nose and was so angry that she couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

Hiroshi came out of the house when he heard the noise. He saw the vacuum cleaner lying on the ground, "on strike," and Shin-chan standing next to it with an innocent (but actually guilty) look on his face. Looking at Misae's gloomy face, he knew without asking what had happened.

He sighed, crouched down, and tried to disassemble the vacuum cleaner's dustbin: "Let me see... I guess the motor burned out, or the blades are stuck. How can you vacuum up rocks like this, really..."

Shin-chan shrank back, glanced at the furious Misae, then at the worried Hiroshi, and suddenly pointed at Akira, muttering softly, "Akira just said it would break too..."

"How dare you say that!" Misae's temper flared up again: "You listened to Xiaoxu? Now look what's happened, you've ruined the vacuum cleaner!" She became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and her eyes even turned a little red. After all, this vacuum cleaner was a model she had been eyeing for a long time.

Mingxu silently swept the scattered milk powder into the trash can, walked over and patted Meiya on the shoulder: "It's alright, Mom, Xiaoxin didn't do it on purpose. Let's see if we can send it to be repaired, maybe it can still be saved." He then turned to Xiaoxin, his expression becoming more serious: "Xiaoxin, do you know you were wrong this time? Not everything can be put into the vacuum cleaner, especially hard or large things, it's easy to damage the machine."

Shin-chan lowered his head, his little hands behind his back, his toes drawing circles on the ground, and his voice was barely audible: "I know..."

Just then, the aunt next door passed by carrying a shopping basket. Seeing the scene in front of the Nohara family's house, she curiously peeked out and asked, "Oh dear, Mrs. Nohara, what's going on? I think I heard a very loud noise just now."

Misae's face stiffened, and she quickly forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace, waving her hand and saying, "It's nothing, it's just... the vacuum cleaner accidentally sucked up something it shouldn't have, and it seems to be broken." She was really embarrassed to say that it was Shin-chan's "masterpiece."

The middle-aged woman said "Oh," and leaned closer to look at the vacuum cleaner emitting blue smoke. She clicked her tongue and said, "Tsk tsk, isn't this the grand prize from the supermarket raffle a few days ago? I remember it was this cyclone vacuum cleaner, it was so expensive! How come it's so fragile?"

After saying a few words, the woman left.

Her words were like a needle, piercing Misae's sore spot. She opened her mouth, wanting to explain that it was her child being silly, but the words caught in her throat, and she could only manage an awkward, dry laugh. Hiroshi, meanwhile, was engrossed in his work, sweating profusely, muttering to himself, "Strange, why can't I take it apart... this design is too complicated..."
