02. My neighbor can't be so weird
It's still a mess in my head.
I couldn't figure out the meaning of Mr. Yue's arrangements, but I vaguely felt that there was some deep meaning.
But I can't figure it out.
At this time, it is often difficult to get an answer if you dig deeper.
He put this doubt aside, thinking that it should be right to do what Mr. Yue said first, so he took the initiative to lift the quilt and get up from the bed.
Pushing the door open, I looked around, and there were several rooms outside, which seemed to be the second floor, with stairs on the right-hand side.
Li Nian walked down and arrived in the living room, and at a glance he saw some things on the coffee table, a few sets of clothes and shorts, a few pairs of shoes, a leather bag, a comb, a headband, and a small mirror.
While walking towards the table, I glanced around, and found that there were TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, and everything, and it seemed that the furniture was very complete, and there were some small items with a human touch, so I felt that Mr. Yue had lived for a while.
He walked to the coffee table, picked up a few sets of clothes and looked at them, there was a stack of obvious students' school uniforms, and the rest were casual clothes for summer and autumn, Li Nian called Yue Xuan's name, but there was no response, it seemed that he was really leaving. He took the mirror first, and looked at the face in the mirror, it was a sloppy hair and cold eyes, some familiar, and some unfamiliar, it was really a face with the feeling of "becoming younger Li Nian".
Was this what I used to be? Thinking like this for a while, it doesn't feel realistic.
Li Nian put down the mirror, took off the wide pajamas and threw them aside to get dressed, first put on shorts and pants, and then picked up a T-shirt to put on, suddenly remembered that there was a scar on his back, so he stopped his movements, picked up the mirror and put it on the side of his body and held it a little behind, observed his back from the mirror, and found that the scar had indeed disappeared, and he was stunned for a moment before continuing to put on his clothes.
Then he combed his hair in the mirror, picked up the headband and tied up the slightly too long back hair, and then looked at the person in the mirror, and felt that it was decent, so he took a deep breath and tried to make a smiling expression, the previous experience of comforting the family of the deceased was still there, but the smile was successfully squeezed out, he nodded and turned to walk towards the entrance.
There are five boxes of the same style on the floor of the entrance, pick up one and see what kind of small snacks are written on it, it seems that these are souvenirs......
Suddenly, I noticed a small note falling, reached out and grabbed it, and when I saw it, it said a beautiful man with strength and strength.
"Two on the left and right, three on the opposite door".
It's really five, do you want to visit one family after another?
Speaking of visiting neighbors or something, he knows the truth, and he vaguely understands a little bit, but he hasn't actually done this kind of thing.
I don't have much confidence......
I don't know who the neighbors are, but I hope it goes well......
With a little apprehension, Li Nian opened the door and walked out.
=======
When I walked out of the door, a shallow wind blew in front of me, and when I looked over, a little cherry blossom fell down.
Reaching out and catching it, it is a petal of a cherry blossom.
Looking at the other side of the street, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom on the side of the road, and I don't think you can understand this kind of scenery anywhere else in Japan.
Spring......
It's still winter, in every sense......
It's still weird.
Sighing, Li Nian suppressed the sense of disobedience in his heart, no matter what, what he had to do was still to be done.
Turning his head to look at the building next to him, he let go of his hand and let the petals fall from his palm to the ground.
The first one decided to visit the building on the left hand side first.
This is a two-story detached house, the kind that is very common in Japan, and the door number outside the entrance is written with three Chinese characters written on the biqi valley, which seems to be the surname of this family.
What a strange name.
Li Nian thought about it and walked to the door and rang the doorbell.
When I waited for someone to come, I thought about the possible conversation in my mind and went through it again, and I felt that it should be fine.
Then he heard the sound of thumping footsteps, and knew that someone was coming, so he stood up straight.
"Coming, coming......"
The dull voice, the one who opened the door was a young man with gloomy eyes, and when he saw Li Nian's unfamiliar face, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
For a moment, he cringed a little, and opened his mouth with a little guard.
"Well, who are you?"
The dead fish-eyed imp obviously doesn't like the appearance of strangers...... Is this going to get off to a bad start?
I think about it casually, but on the other hand, I also feel that if it is not an adult who comes out to greet me, it feels less restrictive.
"I'm a new neighbor."
He blurted out the words that had been brewing for a long time, while pointing to his house.
"I moved from the mainland, my name is Li Nian, because I want to live here for a long time, so I came to visit, and I took ...... Biqi Valley...... Is it Biqi Tani-kun? Are your parents gone? β
, it's so hard to read, I accidentally bit my tongue.
"Uh, yes, that's ...... my parents."
"Brother! Who is coming? β
There was a girl's cry from inside the room, followed by a little head poking out of the open door of the hallway, it was a girl with cute tiger teeth, that title, it seemed to be the younger sister of this kid.
The girl tilted her head when she saw a stranger standing outside the door.
"So, you are?"
"It's a new neighbor, Komachi."
The dead fish-eyed boy turned his head and said in a rather helpless tone.
"Can you come out like that? Go back, what kind of system will you become in front of the guests. β
"Didn't I come out~~"
The girl stuck out her tongue, but obediently retracted into the room.
Ho Ho ...... Unexpectedly, it was a majestic brother......
The boy turned his head and bowed his head slightly to Li Nian and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry for making you laugh." β
"No, it's okay......"
Li Nian was a little surprised, this little ghost looked like this, but he was very polite.
"As you can see, my father and mother are not here, and there is only me and my sister at home."
"Well, that's no way, I'll find a time to visit next time. By the way, here is a little gift, not a heart, please accept it"
After Li Nian finished speaking, he handed over a box of snacks, and the young man took it and nodded.
"Thank you, I'll tell my parents when they come back."
"Don't know your name yet?"
"Huh? Ah, too...... My name is Hachiman, and I'm my little sister just now, and it's called Komachi. β
"Is it Hikiya Hachiman and Hikiya Komachi...... I remembered, then, I had to visit my next home, so I took my leave. β
"Ah, let's go......"
That's all he said, he didn't meet his parents, so he could be regarded as informing him, this family is the completion of the visit, Li Nian bowed slightly, didn't stay, turned around and went to another house.
The boy from Hachiman looked at him and stood there for a while, muttering, "Chinese...... He spoke Japanese fluently......" before returning to the house and closing the door.
The second house Li Nian visited was a more ornate and larger bungalow, there was an iron door outside the entrance, and the word "Sibo" was written on the name plate.
There is a communication device at the door, after it is connected, a soft female voice appears to ask Li Nian's identity, Li Nian said that he is a visiting neighbor, and he said "Wait a minute" and hung up the call, followed by a girl who came out to open the door.
Li Nian raised his eyes and looked.
What came out was a very beautiful beautiful girl, with snow-white skin and smooth long black hair, just wearing a long dress in casual clothes at home, but she could still clearly feel that she was a person with a good temperament.
Who's like the eldest lady of the house......
Li Nian thought about it and said hello first.
"Hello. I'm Li Nian. β
"Hello, I'm Si Bo Shenxue, that, Li ...... Read......? ...... Mr. Lee? β
"The Chinese came here with their elders and already plan to settle down for a long time. After that, I'm probably going to be staying here for a long time, so let's take a look first. β
"That's right."
"Isn't Lingzun Lingtang here?"
"It's just me and my brother living here."
And an older brother? Only two people live?
There seems to be something hidden.
However, during the conversation, the ears did catch the approach of a second subtle footstep, and it seemed that the girl's eldest brother was coming.
Originally, there was nothing to worry about, but listening to it, Li Nian suddenly noticed that there was a different kind of calm and gentle rhythm when he walked over.
β¦β¦ Well?
He looked thoughtfully behind the girl. There was a tall boy who came out at the expected time.
"Deep snow, is it a neighbor who came to visit?"
"Yes, my brother."
The girl seemed to have a lot of respect for the boy, and when the boy approached, she respectfully stepped back behind him and gave way to the dominant position.
"That's it, Mr. Li Nianli, a guest from China."
Li Nian and the boy looked at each other together, looked up and down vaguely, and felt that the boy was mediocre in appearance, but his temperament was very awe-inspiring.
It seems to be a very secretive person.
But he didn't have a position to delve into, so he didn't think much about it, so he smiled and stretched out his hand to say hello in Chinese.
βnihaoγβ
The boy laughed politely.
"Hello. I'm Si Po Taya. β
"I'm probably going to get along for a long time in the future, I don't know much about Japanese customs, so please be tolerant if you are offended."
"Of course, Li Jun's side is not too restrained."
"Yes, I hope we can get along happily. So, this is a souvenir I brought, some small snacks, I hope the sister can like it. β
Si Bo Shenxue covered her mouth and smiled, her smile as beautiful as a blooming flower.
"It's good that Mr. Li has this intention, and he will be a neighbor in the future, so please take care of him."
Si Poda also stretched out his hand: "Please take care of me." β
Li Nian stretched out his hand to shake him, and also said, "Night dew is bitter." β
After the two let go, they exchanged a few more pleasantries, and at this point Li Nian was faintly a little unbearable, and ended the conversation under the pretext of visiting the next house, which was natural, and after saying goodbye, he turned around and walked to the third house to visit.
Si Bo Shenxue waved goodbye behind him, thinking that this was a good person.
But her brother Si Boda next to her also looked at Li Nian's back, but gradually restrained his smile, revealing a cold face.
Suddenly, he said: "Li Jun seems to be a person with a very deep foundation in martial arts. β
Si Bo Shenxue was stunned for a moment, and cast an inquiring gaze at his brother from the bottom up with his chin up, his eyes were clear and a little confused, very cute.
Si Poda also saw his sister's inadvertent cute expression and laughed.
"But it doesn't look like someone who threatens us," he said, reaching out and gently rubbing the top of his sister's head.
Deep snow's white face was dyed with a flush, showing a happy expression, but the brother only rubbed it twice before withdrawing his hand, saying "in" and turning around and walking into the house, the touch disappeared from the top of her head, and she showed a regretful expression again, but immediately patted her face and shook her head to regain her spirits, trotting to keep up with Tatsuya's pace.
The door to Sibo's house was also shut.
At this time, Li Nian had already stood in front of the door of the third neighbor, he looked at the word "Wei Gong" on the door number, and then looked at the cardboard hanging on the main door, "The whole family is traveling, please call XXXXX if you have something", and then he knew that this family would not have a chance to see it today.
When I went to the next house, the name plate said "Isayama", but no one answered when I knocked on the door.
Li Nian thought that there was no one in this house. He was about to continue to the last house, and when he walked a few steps, he suddenly heard a crisp shout behind him.
"Wait a minute! That gentleman over there! Please wait a moment. β
As if shouting to himself, Li Nian was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look. Standing behind was a shawl-haired girl carrying a long cloth bag, looking at her appearance and school uniform style, it seemed to be a junior high school student.
Li Nian pointed at himself: "Are you calling me?" β
"Yes."
"So what's the matter?"
"Well, you just knocked on my house...... No, no, knocked on the door of Isayama's house, right? β
"Huh? Ah, yes, you are? β
"I'm the one who lives here, may I ask, what's the matter with you?"
It seems that I just happened to meet a member of this family.
"Well, I'm actually new here, you see, it's the same house, and I'm here to visit the neighbors."
"That's right......"
"Excuse me, when will the master of the house come back?"
"This ...... Belch...... Uncle Naraku's words are staying at the family's side, and Sister Huangquan was supposed to come back with me, but she has a temporary mission......"
The girl looked like she wanted to say something.
Li Nian asked, "Won't they come back today?" β
"I'm not sure."
"That's ......"
Li Nian thought about it, but still took out a box and handed it to the girl, saying, "If you can, can you please give this to her on my behalf?" β
ββ¦β¦ Well! OK. β
The girl took the box. He nodded vigorously.
"Please, then...... That, what's your name? β
"Ahh I'm Kagura, Tsuchigomon Kagura. β
"I'm Li Nian."
βliβ¦β¦ nianβ¦β¦οΌ β
"Yes, Linian, I'm Chinese."
"Understood, Mr. Li is right?"
"It's okay to shout like this, I still have a family to leave, so I'll be out of company first, see you next time, Miss Tuyumen."
"Hmmm! Good bye! β
The girl bowed slightly goodbye, turned and trotted home.
Li Nianzai squinted his eyes and looked at him from behind.
Inside that bag seems to be a long knife? Have a noticeable overflow of aura? This girl looks like a cultivator......
It's really not surprising if the surname is Tsuchigomon...... Really, my neighbors are all people.
Anyway, there is only the last one left.
This time, Li Nian saw a familiar Chinese character from the door number.
"Lee."
ββ¦β¦β
He didn't remember that the Japanese single surname had this character in it.
"Meow~~~"
When he heard the cat's meow, he looked up and saw that it was a black cat lying on a branch, staring at him condescendingly.
ββ¦β¦β
This cat feels quirky.
Li Nian couldn't help but glance twice, but the cat stood up and jumped away from the other side.
I think it's too much.
Li Nian retracted his gaze, rang the doorbell once, but there was no response, and pressed it again, but there was still no response.
The owner of this house is not there either? Did you find the wrong time to visit? γ
Speaking of which, I haven't seen an adult yet...... If it's a weekday, it's normal for adults to come home late because of work, and maybe the time is really not right.
He thought that this was done, and turned around to go home, and after walking a few steps, the tips of his ears moved, and he caught the subtle sound of footsteps, and when he turned his head to look, there was a squeak, and the door of the house was actually open.
Behind stood a girl, silver-haired and blue-eyed, doll-like and delicate.
Li Nian once needed to walk around the world because of her work, and she could see at a glance that this was a girl of the Nordic race.
Foreigner?
There was some confusion for a while, but she didn't speak, and the girl didn't speak first, just stood, expressionless, looking down at the ground, and her eyes weren't on him.
And the black cat that I saw at the door now appeared behind the girl, staring straight at this side.
Li Nian felt weird about this situation, scratched his hair, and spoke first.
"Excuse me, do you understand Japanese?"
"Yes."
Unexpectedly, the answer was clear and fast, but I could hardly feel the ups and downs of my voice and feelings......
"Are you alone? Are there any grown-ups? β
"It's to ask Hei, he hasn't come back yet."
heiοΌ h~ei black?
Li Nian became more and more confused about the situation.
Simply put his doubts aside, and he said to himself: "I'm a new neighbor, and I came here this time to visit you, and it seems that the adults are not at home." β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦ Here's a little souvenir, and if your family comes back, please pass it on to him. β
Li Nian took out a box and handed it to the girl.
The girl raised her head slightly, as if she was looking at the box, but her eyes still didn't look like she was focused, but she still slowly stretched out her hands to pick up the box.
Li Nian let go very slowly, because he was a little suspicious that this girl could not hold it, but it seemed that she held it well, and when she completely withdrew her hand, Li Nian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw this girl holding the box well.
What the hell is going on......
In short, in this way, it can be regarded as the completion of what Mr. Yue has explained.
"So, that's it, I take my leave."
ββ¦β¦β
The girl still didn't speak, just looked down at the box and didn't answer him.
Seeing this, Li Nian sighed, turned around and walked towards his own Xuan.
When I arrived at the door, I felt uneasy, and I looked back and saw that the girl was still standing there and looking down at the box, while the black cat was climbing on the doorknob, and after two more looks, I knew that the cat was closing the door on behalf of the girl.
"I'll ......"
Really, shouldn't my neighbor be so weird......
He turned around and sighed again, pushed the door open and returned home.
