By the time the dynasty returned to the venue, the bonfire festival had already ended, and only the last paper boat was left, and today's Obon party was completely over.

"Don't you look for Tanaka?" The dynasty that refound Rika Shimazaki asked casually.

"Ah Xue said that if we want to go back, we can just go directly, and we don't have to look for them again." Rika Shimazaki shook her head and said softly. It's just that I don't know why, when I said 'go back', Shimazaki Rika's cheeks turned slightly red.

However, Wang Chao didn't care, nodded and didn't ask about this matter.

"Let's go, go buy paper boats, let's put two too."

After saying that, without hesitation, he took Shimazaki Rika and walked over to the nearby paper boat sales point.

The so-called paper boat is not a simple paper boat, it also has a certain symbolic meaning, that is, "Cihang Pudu". Coming from the Buddhist family, it is a thing to worship wild ghosts together with the flame outlet, which was lit in the center of the bonfire before, and was used to burn paper money, paper people, and paper objects, so as to pray for peace, and to eliminate ghost grudges, so that the world can be peaceful.

Of course, this is also true. It's just that with the passage of time and the progress of science, the meaning of this tradition is no longer valued by ordinary people in the world, and it is only inherited as a custom, and the true meaning of it is not clear, and even disagreement has arisen, and it is regarded as a way of praying!

Fortunately, this world is still peaceful, and the wishes of the prayer are relatively simple and peaceful, otherwise it will be like playing with a pen fairy, and it may attract something, and even if it is not good, it will end up miserable.

……

After a while, the dynasty and Shimazaki Rika bought the paper boat, that is, the river lamp, turned it on, lit it with a lighter borrowed from others, and gently lowered it into the river in front of them.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Subsequently, the river lanterns slowly float away under the action of the hot air created by the flames and the undercurrent contained in the river itself, and converge with the river lanterns that have already been released in the river channel, forming a long dragon of river lanterns, which will appear to be sparkling in the moonlight, as if the river water is covered with gold.

However, this is only what ordinary people see from the horizon. In the vision of the dynasty, which is not an ordinary person, with the drifting of the river lanterns, a large number of wandering ghosts and wild ghosts quickly converged from all directions, floating above the river, like a tide of undead, moving with the movement of the river lanterns.

It's just that in this way, the temperature near the river, which was already a little cold, became colder due to the influence of the rapidly converging yin qi, as if it was autumn or winter, so that the people on the edge of the river all involuntarily shrank their bodies.

But that's not the most critical thing. The most important thing is that with the arrival of these wild ghosts and yin qi, the area around the originally ordinary river channel has instantly turned into a relatively heavy spirit area! It exudes a powerful attraction that attracts more ghosts to rush here. If we don't deal with this situation quickly, we can't say what will happen in this place, and it will be like the kind of spiritual disaster that the dynasty saw in Tokyo that can affect reality.

Thinking of this, Wang Chao suddenly didn't want to stay in such a dangerous place any longer, and pulled Shimazaki Rika, who was looking at the river lanterns in the distance, and led the other party out of the river with the latter's suddenly nervous and hesitant expression, walked out of the crowd, and walked along the nearby streets towards home.

Along the way, Rika Shimazaki became silent for some reason, and did not take the initiative to say a word to the dynasty.

Of course, after trying to find two topics to no avail, Wang Chao also decisively gave up the plan to chat, and instead observed the surrounding situation aimlessly.

It's just that this look really made him discover a lot of special things.

For example, the pedestrians on the street, except for most of the ordinary people who do not behave in any abnormality, a small number of men who don't know where they came from and are dressed very modernly, as if they are white-collar workers who have just returned from overtime, appear on the street, seemingly casually, but in fact vigilant or something, looking around, and simply moving towards the river against the flow of people.

There are also sporadic monks and onmyoji wearing yin and yang robes. Let the dynasty understand the identity of these guys in an instant - the real onmyoji and the person from the super natural disaster countermeasures room of the Ministry of the Environment!

"Did you react...... It is also worthy of being an official institution. Wang Chao, who noticed the situation of those personnel, squinted his eyes slightly and said secretly in his heart.

Then I didn't think much about it, and silently accompanied Shimazaki Rika, who didn't know what to think there, to her house.

It wasn't until more than half an hour later that the two stood in front of a single-family villa that looked to be some years old.

"Alright, let's go inside. It's getting late, so let's get some rest. Wang Dynasty looked up at the duplex villa in front of him, and said to Shimazaki Rika who had a changing face beside him.

"......" Rika Shimazaki didn't answer, just lowered her head slightly and looked at her toes together.

"Something?" After waiting for a while, Wang Chao, who still didn't see Rika Shimazaki answer, looked at her suspiciously and asked.

"Well, let's go in and sit down." Shimazaki Rika's face was certain, she quickly looked up at the dynasty, and whispered with red cheeks.

"Not good...... It's so late, and my uncle and aunt are resting, right? Let's wait for next time. Wang Chao hesitated, glanced at the lights that did not exist in the villa, and hesitated.

"It's okay, they went back to their hometown, and there was no one at home." Rika Shimazaki bit her lip and said softly. And when he finished speaking, his cheeks turned as red as blood.

At this time, the dynasty still didn't understand the meaning of Shimazaki Rika's words, and stayed on the spot in an instant.

"No wonder Rika's mood has been wrong since she came back. I thought it was because of the river lantern that I missed my deceased relatives. I didn't expect to hesitate about this! ”

"Is it really good just like this? I don't have any feelings like it......"

Rika Shimazaki, who took the dynasty's changing expression into her eyes, did not urge, but blushed, bowed her head and played with her fingers, waiting for the dynasty's choice.

After a while, Wang Chao's forehead was slightly sweaty and said with a dry smile, "That, Rika, it's getting late, so I won't disturb your rest." I'm leaving. ”

Then, without waiting for Rika to react, he immediately turned around and strode out to the outside. It's just that it didn't work, and I was soon stopped by Shimazaki Rika's "eh" sound.

In a hurry, Shimazaki Rika quickly grabbed the placket of the dynasty's clothes, and then was taken down by the dynasty by accident and reason, and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Rika, are you alright?" Wang turned around and looked at Rika Shimazaki with tears in her eyes.

"I want to make good memories of this summer." Rika Shimazaki lowered her head and whispered in a sad but pleading voice.

Wang Chao was silent, stopped the hand stretched out to Shimazaki Rika, and asked himself again in his heart.

"Is that really good?"

This is not the hypocrisy of the dynasty, but there is really some hesitation. After all, Shimazaki Rika has a good relationship with him, and he is a good friend who is not full of lovers, but because of this, he has a relationship with Shimazaki Rika on impulse without any consideration and does not think about the future, and the dynasty feels like he has become a scumbag.

At least afterwards, the dynasty couldn't do such a thing as pulling birds out and being ruthless.

But refuse...... Looking at Rika Shimazaki's sad and indignant expression, the dynasty really couldn't let go of that heart. Of course, I was also a little worried, afraid that Rika Shimazaki would be hurt too hard and then do something bad.

After all, this is an island country, a suicide rate ranked among the highest in the world, and the culture is extremely particular about material mourning, believing that death is not an ugly and sinful country, the dynasty is really uncertain, and the somewhat cowardly Shimazaki Rika will change and go to the other extreme.

After thinking about it, Wang Chao couldn't help but look at Shimazaki Rika and asked softly, "Have you really thought about it?" Even if we had a relationship, I wouldn't necessarily like you? ”

"Yes." Rika Shimazaki blushed and replied with her head bowed in a mosquito-like voice.

Although the voice was small, the firmness in it was still able to make the dynasty feel it clearly.

"Okay. It's a big deal, I'll take care of her more in the future! ”

Thinking of this, Wang Dynasty no longer hesitated, leaned over and passed his hand through the crook of Shimazaki Rika's legs and back, and with a force on his waist, he hugged her horizontally, then turned around and strode to the door of the villa.

"Open the door."

"Wait, wait." Rika Shimazaki, whose cheeks were red as if they were about to drip blood, said in a panic. But he didn't regret it, but hurriedly took out the door key from the belt around the waist of the yukata, opened the door, and walked into the villa with Wang Chao in his arms.

"Bang!"

"Where's your bedroom?" Then, walking into the house, Wang Chao, who took off his shoes indiscriminately, said again.

"On the second floor, go up to the second room." Rika Shimazaki replied.

Wang Chao did not pause, Yi Yan carried Rika up to the second floor, passed through a door, found the bedroom of Rika Shimazaki with the door half open, gently put her on the bed, and then turned over and pressed it.

"Wait, wait." Rika Shimazaki softly stopped.

"How?" Wang Chao wondered.

"I want to take a shower first." Rika Shimazaki whispered.

"Okay, let's wash together." Wang Dynasty laughed.

Then he turned over and got up from Shimazaki Rika, followed Shimazaki Rika to the bathroom on the first floor like a scoundrel, ignoring Shimazaki Rika's shame, and took off his clothes with a big prick in the face.

Shimazaki Rika was helpless, and she also took off the yukata on her body with the shame in her heart, revealing the coverings inside, and then turned her back to the dynasty to untie it, covered it with both hands, and walked into the shower room naked, standing opposite the dynasty.

"Dynasty, I'll help you frustrate." Rika Shimazaki took the sprinkler on the side, turned it on, and whispered.

"Okay." The dynasty turned around and responded beautifully.

Immediately, the warm water descended, and under the caress of Shimazaki Satoka's soft little hands, it gently washed the back of the dynasty.
