January 1st, five o'clock in the morning

Rinnosuke Mori woke up later than ever, and the harsh sunlight made it difficult for him to open his eyes for a while

"Is it the first day" He raised his head, and then slowly rolled up the curtains, "I was too busy yesterday, and I cleared the goods again, but I didn't expect to get up an hour or two later than before, fortunately I didn't go to Reimu's celebration, otherwise I would have slept until noon and got up"

"A new day should be remembered something" He glanced at the cupboard, and then picked up a booklet, I don't know when it started, he himself has the habit of writing down some things, and the time to develop it is not long, it is nothing more than a sudden thought, some people often say that three minutes of heat, and how long can he persist until geometry?

He thought so, and then began to change his clothes, and in a few moments, the white-haired young man in an ancient robe and glasses began to run his shop, Xianglin Hall

This shop is not very famous, although it is rumored in the world, but because the location is too remote, and there are no conspicuous road signs around, so basically no human will come to patronize, and they are all thieves who like to take sheep by hand, or some monsters who come to talk to them, but this day is also leisurely, he also has some land, and it is not a problem to live for decades

Yes, as long as there are no accidents

"Smack!" As if it was a miracle, a glass in front of him was opened by a heavy object

"Shopkeeper San~Is you there~I'm here to deliver the newspaper~" A lively girl's voice came from outside the window

"Even if I'm not here, I'm afraid I'll be disturbed by this harsh noise," he sighed lightly, "Wen, come in if you want"

"Ahh

"Don't get me wrong, I just remembered that you didn't have to work at the beginning of the day, so let you rest" He skillfully made a pot of hot tea, "but it's a little strange, why do you still smash my window"

"The shopkeeper's newspaper must be delivered~ This is my first newspaper of the year, and it is also the only newspaper of today" Shotimaru said proudly, "You are an old customer"

"Heh" he sighed softly, this sentence is indeed true, when she first went to work in Youkai Mountain, she ordered her first newspaper, and it stands to reason that she is really an old customer

Shooting Maruwen、She should be his first youkai best friend.,I met him when I first entered Gensokyo.,It's been hundreds of years in the blink of an eye.,This friendship should be a precious memory.

"But I'm afraid no one will not know about these news", after pausing to reminisce, he then picked up the newspaper and flipped through it a few times, "Yesterday was a precious day"

"I know it's a big day, but you still don't go, you don't know how many girls chew your little broken mouth at the banquet" Shotimaru Wen approached with a chuckle, "It's a pity, Yakumo Zi is so strict, I can't remember a single word"

"A rare good thing," he said, taking a sip of hot tea

"you" Shotmaru Fumimi pretended to be annoyed and bumped his shoulder, "The mouth can't be sweeter"

"Appropriate changes, Wen, you have a strange smell on you"

"Does it smell bad?" Shotmaruwen hurriedly sniffed, "This is what I asked Miss Sanae to give me, I got up in a hurry in the morning, and I rushed over after spraying a little casually, doesn't it taste good?" ”

"No, it's very fragrant, it's a perfume from the outside world," looking at the shot-shot pill who hurriedly defended, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, "It smells like an osmanthus, it's just a little lighter."

"Because it's only a little bit," Shotimaru Wen scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Miss Sanae also needs to use it, but do you remember that you like to eat osmanthus cakes the most?"

"Aren't you either, it just so happened that the Wuyu family sent some New Year's goods, there are some osmanthus cakes in it, you can taste it first" He stood up and picked up a brocade box from the shelf

"Oooh! The shopkeeper who has never pulled out a dime has actually treated him! Shooting Pill Wen subconsciously took out the camera, "Big news start~"

"Hurry up and eat, or you'll be gone," he greeted with a wry smile, "Besides, you don't report less on my news here, and at least a large section of the news each time"

"Hawkers, I'll take a piece and go, it's almost too late, today is a private gathering of the Tengu, I'm the host" Shotimaruwen picked up a piece of osmanthus cake. Then he walked to the door, "Thank you, Rinnosuke"

"Host, I think when we first met, you were a little tengu who couldn't speak clearly, and in the blink of an eye, you would become like this"

"Don't look like an old man in a sixtieth year, people always have to change, and so do youkai" Shotimaru Wen looked back and smiled, "For the sake of dreams"

"What dreams? Dig up all the secrets of Gensokyo, and what did you wish yesterday? ”

"The Girl's Secret ~" Shooting Maruwen spreads his wings and flies into the distance

My dream, my wish, isn't it to be able to record your bits and pieces and keep them forever as my memory?

In the next shot pill text, but you are the exclusive reporter of Xianglin Hall~

Seven o'clock in the morning

"If the time is counted, she should have arrived," he had just mended the window, and looked up at the roof worriedly, "It won't be the same way to appear."

"Xianglin~" A call that was a hundred times more lively than the shooting pill Wen sounded, "Marisa-sama is here to play~"

"Bang dang!" The sound of the roof collapsing rang out

"Demon. Reason. Sand! He exclaimed, "How many times have you said it, go through the door!" What should I do if the product is crushed?! ”

"Aren't they all things that don't sell," Marisa muttered, but got off the broom and stood aside with grievances written all over her face

"I'm usually not aggrieved, why have I become so weak today," he raised his voice

"Because you promised Xianglin last time, you won't go to the roof again" Marisa bowed her head and said "I'm sorry"

"You're really," he sighed, "forget it, just say goodbye to the old and welcome the new"

"Hehe, I know Xianglin, you won't be willing to teach me a lesson~" Marisa immediately trotted to his side, and then grabbed his hand, "Na, Xianglin, a lot of interesting things happened at the banquet yesterday, you prepare some snacks and make a pot of tea, I'll tell you one by one~"

"There is osmanthus cake, do you want to eat it?" He asked helplessly

"Uh-huh! I'm going to eat it all~"

"Don't mess around, what will Reimu and the other guests eat then?"

"Whew, then leave half of it"

"Almost, the tea is ready, let's talk here"

"Hehe, then let Marisa-sama tell the story~"

Marisa Misty Rain, the only daughter of the Misty Rain family that I have seen since I was a child, I have fought in the Misty Rain family before, because I am more knowledgeable than ordinary people, and because I usually work hard, I have won the trust of the head of the Misty Rain family, and by the way, it has become Marisa's private teaching

Later, Marisa wanted to become a magician, her father disagreed, and she went straight to the Magic Forest to live in anger, but she didn't bring anything at that time, or used a large number of contacts by herself, plus she sold all her assets to build a house for her, and added a Xianglin Hall, because she didn't plan to go back, Marisa She is not only small, but also impulsive, if there is no one to take care of her, the consequences are absolutely unimaginable, now think about it, time should have passed three or five years, and it is really a hurry

"Xianglin! Have you heard it? Marisa's disgruntled voice interrupted his recollection, "I'm talking so hard, DAZE"

"Of course I listened, Marisa's injuries, the suffering, I know all of this" He couldn't help it, he touched Marisa's blonde hair, for some reason, she had to sit on his lap if she wanted to chat, and at the same time habitually took off her hat, has it been a habit since childhood?

"Uh-huh, that won't make up for your disobedience punishment" Marisa's face turned red, but she still said stiffly

"Gossip Furnace"

"Xianglin! Can't you just let me say it myself?! Marisa grumbled, "Don't keep treating me like a child! ”

"But you'll always be a kid compared to Reimu," he smiled wryly, "so don't pinch, it hurts"

"Always compare me with Reimu" Marisa said angrily, but still let go of her hand, "No, the gossip furnace is for you, Xianglin, you have to repair it well, I'll go back first"

"So fast?" He was surprised that Marisa wouldn't go back if she didn't stay here for five or six hours

"There's something going on today.,I've helped treat a lot of mutations recently.,So I've got a lot of metal.,I'm going back to screen DAZE one by one" Marisa on the broomstick "See you back.,Xianglin~"

"What is the metal doing in such a hurry," he shook his head, and then carefully examined the gossip furnace

(The sword Xianglin last time seemed to be very satisfied, well, that happy look I only saw on the day I became a magician, as long as there is a first time, there will be a second time, I must find a more precious metal than that sword for Xianglin, this is the reward I should pay)

(Wait and see, I, Marisa, will prove that I am better than Reimu, Huiyin-sensei, and Yakumo Murasaki)

(Your future will not be handed over to someone else DAZE!) ）

Eight o'clock in the morning

"Disturbed" Reimu naturally pushed open the door "Mr. Rinnosuke, are you there?" ”

"Reimu? Please come in, I'll put something in the back room, you wait outside for a while."

"Understood" Reimu nodded, and then skillfully took out the tea leaves and snacks, "Osmanthus cake, Lin Zhisuke, you are really the richest in the past few days"

"Hasn't anyone sent you tribute this year?"

"Tribute? Those dishes from last night? ”

"Reimu, the simplicity of your life is inseparable from yourself"

"I'm still self-aware, anyway, I don't care about money, take it from the people, so use it for the people" Reimu said vaguely with the osmanthus cake in his mouth, "Linnosuke, is there anything else?" ”

"Then please don't come back to this small shop to disturb you" He hit Reimu on the head with a book, "There are still some tea cakes, and some food from the outside world, but I haven't checked it"

"Tea cake" Reimu stretched out his hand "Thank you very much"

"You," he shook his head helplessly, "I'm worried that you'll starve to death one day."

"If Rinnosuke goes first, I'll follow right away," Reimu said indifferently, "It's not a joke."

"Don't say that again"

"Then give me the tea cake"

"What's the logic?"

"I didn't have breakfast"

"Come right away"

"Linnosuke, you still don't go to yesterday's banquet, so should I go to the Forever Pavilion next time to get something for you to visit?"

"No need, you can't put it there"

"Hmm" is a very everyday conversation

Hakurei Reimu,The witch of the Hakurei Shrine,It's a few generations of myself who don't want to think about it anymore.,I only know that her previous generations of witches are close friends with me.,Speaking of which, their equipment except for the yin and yang jade other items are shipped from their side.,As a price, they're also responsible for protecting their own safety.,But they were rejected.,The Hakurei witch is the life that survived for Gensokyo.,If it's only for yourself to fight, then it's too hypocritical.

"Rinnosuke, thank you for your hospitality" Reimu said "Then I'll go first"

"If you wish for the sacrifice, then hurry back, the time is almost up"

"Well, I'll leave it to you for the next time."

"Got it," he sighed

"Heh, bye-bye," Reimu smiled

"There's a lot of demonic energy around here again" After stepping out of the door, Reimu loosened his bones, "Is it related to the sudden change recently, then retreat some before leaving"

"Dare to invade the demons here, you are all enemies of Hakurei Shrine, but you are all enemies of my Hakurei Reimu."

"This Xianglin Hall, you are not allowed to step into half a step"

Twelve o'clock in the afternoon

"Rinnosuke, hurry up and open the door" There was a knock on the door

"Come in, the door is unlocked," he replied

"Really, how many times have you said it, you have to do a good job of safety awareness" Kamibai Ze Huiyin walked in with a bamboo basket, "What if it's a monster from the forest coming to you?" ”

"There's no monster here that can knock on the door before coming in," he stopped, "Huiyin, why are you here again?" ”

"Don't say it's as good as I can't come," Huiyin said angrily, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"No, you're usually too busy, but you still have to cook early, and then send it over in person, don't take your body seriously" He frowned and said, "I can live alone"

"I'm not afraid that you're tired" Huiyin's face has turned red, and her voice can't help but be quieter, "Stay here all day, don't go out and walk around much, I know every day that I accompany some dead things, I've said it, you go back to the world, and then live with me, no, can't?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, but I can't go back, although everyone in the world treats me well, but I also have my own things to do" he explained, "I will go back, I guess it will be sixty or seventy years"

"The children of the Wuyu family, I don't want to interfere in other people's family affairs" Huiyin opened the bamboo basket "I grew up with Linnosuke, I know you better than anyone else, I know you like a stubborn temper, I won't interfere if I don't want to, and what I want to do will definitely be done, you've always been like this"

"Fortunately, you still support me," he chuckled, "Huiyin, you're really a childhood sweetheart."

"Hmph, don't think I'll forgive you no matter what you say, unless you go back to the world and move in with me," Huiyin turned her head, but her face was full of smiles

"I'll go get some sake, your students are on vacation, so let's chat with me"

"Well, got it, Rinnosuke"

Kamibai Ze Huiyin, the opposite sex who grew up with him since childhood, they are of the same age, close personalities, have the same hobbies, the same habits, and even the same race, so their relationship has always been very good, but then because they have to take care of Marisa, so they can only be separated from her temporarily, but they usually interact with each other, and the contact has never been broken, for him, Huiyin's gentleness and thoughtfulness is a good medicine, and some things that can't be mentioned with Marisa can also be talked to her

"By the way, Huiyin, I heard some interesting rumors the last time I went to the world," he said inadvertently after three rounds of drinking

"Rumors? What are the rumors? Huiyin wondered

"Call the problem, you to mine"

"Ah," Huiyin panicked, "Wait! Rin no Suke! Don't say it! ”

"Here you call me to be Linnosuke, but outside you call me to be Xianglin, why?"

"Didn't you say it all! Don't talk during meals! Huiyin raised her forehead in shame

"Boom!" Childhood sweetheart brand mallet, nostalgic taste

A moment later

"Hmph, Xianglin, that baga" Huiyin walked angrily on the way back to the world, "I said no"

"Isn't it impossible to be a teacher if you say something like a nickname because you're jealous of Marisa?"

"Because, isn't that like a lover!"

"The future of me and Rinnosuke can't be thought about! Sure enough, it still doesn't work! I'm not ready to be a wife yet! ”

One o'clock in the afternoon

"Mr. Rinnosuke, I wish you a happy new year / Hello shopkeeper" The two girls in gorgeous kimonos bowed

"Don't be so polite," he smiled, "and I wish you all a happy new year."

"I'm really sorry for the sudden visit.,I was supposed to let the housekeeper come and notify me in advance.,But this has a sense of nobility from top to bottom" The girl with a flower pinned to her head bowed again and said, "In short, it's disrespectful to ask me to come rashly"

"Ah Qiu, if you do this again, the shopkeeper will be angry" Another short-haired girl relieved the siege, "Anyway, the shopkeeper, Xiaoling has also come to worship the early years"

"Ah, grateful," he owed, "Ah Qiu doesn't have to be like this, your barnyard family was originally a famous family in the world, and the disparity between the identities of the two sides is of course"

"Please don't say that! The knowledge of the shopkeeper far exceeds the collection of the barnyard family! If it weren't for the support of the shopkeeper over the years, it would not have been possible to complete the history of Qiu in this generation! You are the real Baume & Mercier! Barnyard Aqiu suddenly said excitedly

"Ah Qiu, relax, didn't you say it, the shopkeeper doesn't care about these" Motoju Xiaoling soothed, "Well, calm down, calm down"

"If you want to talk, go to the inner room, it's too dusty for you," he invited

"That's rude/grateful"

Chamber

"The owner's inner room is really neat and refreshing," Motoi Kosuzu said, looking out, "Are all the books in the warehouse?"

"Is the owner's collection in the backyard?" Barnyard Aqiu couldn't help but look back

"Doesn't Suzu often come to borrow books?" he made tea, "If you want to read it, you can find her"

"Suzu! You sneak away! ”

"I can't help it, I'm too fascinated by it, so I'll just"

"Go back and borrow me all, I'll ask someone to move"

"Yes, yes, yes"

"Would you like some snacks?" He interrupted

"Thank you, Xiaoling and I are just here to pay a New Year's greeting, just have a cup of tea and leave, don't bother the shopkeeper you" Ah Qiu excused himself, "But I hope the shopkeeper can visit the barnyard field a few times, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask the shopkeeper"

"I'm going back to move books" Honju Xiaosuzu looked bitter, "Shopkeeper, can I borrow a few more books next time?"

"Of course, please feel free to read books, and people who know how to read them should also look at them."

"Thank you so much!"

"Xiaoling, let's go"

"Yes~"

Barnyard Aqiu and Honju Xiaosuzu, both of whom are famous people in the world, because their ancestors are his deceased, so they often ask him some questions, and talking to them can also let him learn more new knowledge

And most importantly,

"Xiaoling, don't sneak away in the future, what about studying together?"

"The shopkeeper has visited you alone many times, what's wrong with borrowing a few books?"

"That's our teacher, you can't be rude!"

"Why did you suddenly get involved in etiquette?"

-- They just see themselves as teachers, and that's a blessing

Five o'clock in the afternoon

"Rinnosuke, didn't go to the Missing Tomb today" Fujiwara Meihong broke in the door with a big grin, carrying two pots of wine in her hands, "You didn't go to the party yesterday, and you have to compensate me today."

"Sister Hong, you're looking for something again," he frowned, "I haven't changed my clothes yet."

"What are you afraid of, it's you who meet me like this, not some other fowl. Beast, I'm relieved" Sister Hong unscrewed the cap of the bottle "Drink it"

"Oh, I suddenly remembered the past, you didn't say that the first time you came, remember, you almost burned down my shop that time," he chuckled without malice

"Can't you mention that if you don't talk about it," Mei Hong said embarrassedly, "It's not because those rabbits chew the root of their tongues and say that you tune. Drama Huiyin or something"

"So you come to the shop in the middle of the night"

"Didn't you apologize afterwards, I didn't expect you to have such a good temper, I knew that I burned those rabbits first"

"No one can burn it"

"Don't teach me the same lesson as Huiyin, Rinnosuke"

"That's an admonition, it's a friend's obligation"

"Then I'll understand it, you'll be very busy at night, I'll leave after drinking"

"Does anyone still go to the bamboo forest at night?"

"Well, because Forever Pavilion has been very popular lately, so I still have to go to work at night, otherwise I will be worried about the missing people."

"The relationship with Kaguyahime is better."

"Hmph, no, it's not true, you are not allowed to go to the Eternal Pavilion alone, you have to let me accompany you, those guys are very cunning, and ah, the effect of your tricks for me recently is obvious, Kaguya She has eaten turtles several times, you don't see her like that! Can't let you see it! ”

"Heh, isn't this good, sister Hong, it's better to have a few more friends"

"No, as long as there are bosom friends like you and Huiyin, plus Kaguya's kind of sincere treatment, it's done" Mei Hong lifted the empty wine bottle "I'll go first, Lin Zhisuke, remember to find me if you have something"

"I will," he nodded

Fujiwara sister red、She's a very interesting person.,Grumpy but friendly.,I only knew her by Huiyin.,After solving the misunderstanding, they began to drink and talk.,Over time, they became close friends.,But the people in the village don't like her too much.,It's too indifferent.,But why don't they ever think about their own problems?

Besides, Penglai people, in this case, I will go before her

(Rinnosuke will he go to Kaguya alone, no, he's not a stupid guy like his father, well, that's right, Rinnosuke is a friend, a friend who can be trusted, and a good friend who treats me like Huiyin, but will this relationship change in the future?) After all)

(I really love him.)

Ten o'clock in the evening

"Knock knock" There was an unhurried knock on the door

"Come in," he replied indifferently

"Is this your hospitality," a colder voice sounded than him, "how about dying?" ”

"I'm sorry, but in the evening, we're full of strange customers," he said, putting down his pen, "and I've always been with customers."

"There are strange ghost kings, moon sages, monster sages, and the master of the White Jade Building, the servants of the Red Devil Pavilion, the god of death in the underworld, and even the four seasons Yingji, and there will be gods on the mountain in the future, aren't they all very big" The person who came said coldly

"You also missed one," he pointed to the other party, "Overlord of Hanada - Kazami Yuka yourself"

"No, I'm just an ordinary customer who came to buy flowers, don't separate me from them" Kazami Yuka glanced at the shop, "There seems to be some interesting gadgets, how to sell the flower seeds of the seventh on the third floor over there"

"Same price as last time"

"Then I'll buy it the same as last time, take care of it until it blooms, and I'll add you ten times the price"

"Why don't you plant it yourself, there are more than 10 million words in your flower field, are they all planted by others for you?"

"That's right, someone ploughs the land for me, someone plants it for me, someone fertilizes it for me, I only give them water and sunlight, and nothing else"

"You can't plant flowers like this"

"That's my business, half-demon, you still talk like this after all these years, don't forget who made you survive in the first place"

"This has nothing to do with me, if you really love flowers, try to plant them yourself, only when you understand the difficulty of growing up can you understand the preciousness of life and the hardships of development"

"Hmph, I really don't know what the preciousness of life is and the hardships of growing up are not easy" Kazami Yuka snorted coldly, "I broke my mother's neck as soon as I landed, there was no birth to talk about, I was born a big monster, there is no development at all, in short, the flowers are raised for me, and I will pick them up in a month"

"Sorry, we don't offer it."

"Then provide your head" Kazami Yuka slammed the door and left, "No one will come again, they all go to discuss things, you can sleep"

Mori turned off the lights and wrote the last strokes in his diary by candlelight

"It's time to rest," Rinnosuke Mori said, and hung a sign outside the door that was closing

-- Xianglintang's notebook, January 1, end

postscript

"Say I don't know how to raise flowers" Kazami Yuka walked on the path, and none of the demon beasts around dared to stay within twenty meters of her

"It's you who doesn't understand, because the demon blood that is too close to you with humans has long been reduced to waste" Kazami Yuka stopped "It's like this one by one, it's because you can't give up that you will die"

"One by one, I can't save my mind."
