"Hehe, did that scare you?"
The Big Face Cat, who had just had a sinister expression, instantly burst into a joyful smile and laughed:
"Look at your little courage! My dad was just like that before, ever since that research on the Cosmological Constant came out, he became all nervous and jittery. Whenever he went out and saw someone, he'd grab them, sweating profusely and trembling all over as if he'd been scared silly, mindlessly repeating that one sentence."
"He's scared quite a few kids in the neighborhood into crying... The neighbors had a lot of complaints, so my mom temporarily stopped letting him go out. Then he seemed to have realized something, and he became silent again, locking himself in his room, refusing to come out."
