Chapter 165. Black sand beach

Please, this house of ours was left over from the Pacific War, and it was still for high-ranking military officials at that time. ”

Boss Cheng was talking in Japanese language while helping to move Qiao Qiao and Asano Yariko's suitcases into the room.

As Boss Cheng said before, this room is indeed very large.

It is estimated that it was converted from a large room in the villa, and in addition to a bed that was soft and huge enough for Asako Asano to sink into, there were also living facilities such as a refrigerator and a simple kitchen counter.

Floor-to-ceiling windows open a plunge pool and garden, and beyond that is a sandy beach.

It can be called very luxurious.

The price exceeded 100,000 yen in one night, and in normal times, Qiao Qiao would definitely not have even looked at it.

Fortunately, there is reimbursement from the Kyoto Soul Killer Association.

He sighed.

Boss Cheng went to help move the bed and left the room, leaving only Qiao Qiao and Asano Ariko.

"Wow, there's a pool and a private beach, it's so luxurious."

Asako Asano came to the courtyard and felt the breeze from the sea.

"Hmm."

Qiao Qiao answered, put the backpack on the table, and then took out some things from it.

"What is this?"

Asano Ariko looked at what Qiao Qiao put on the table, and it seemed a little familiar.

"This is a measure to prevent someone from intruding in the middle of the night, because it is inconvenient to carry a lot of things on the plane, so I can only use a simplified version with less power."

As he spoke, Qiao Qiao seriously began to set traps in some places in the courtyard.

"Generally speaking, the security here should be pretty good, right?"

Asano Ariko looked at Qiao Qiao's focused appearance, and she was embarrassed to stop.

Moreover, in a sense, Qiao Qiao's seemingly superfluous behavior will mostly be crooked.

For example, when he was at Atsuta Jingu before, the trap he laid was a good way to block the movement of the worm and buy time for follow-up support.

So Ariko Asano carefully memorized the location of these traps to prevent them from being triggered by mistake.

After more than ten minutes, Boss Cheng and his wife helped set up a new bed.

"Due to the location, I can only put a small bed, but it should be okay?"

Boss Cheng looked at the two of them, thinking that he would definitely only use one bed in the end anyway.

This kind of plot was still very jerky when he came, but it was already glued together when he left, as the owner of the hotel, he saw a lot.

"I'm tired."

Qiao Qiao thanked.

"That's right, our daughter, Sakura, she just got ready to go to elementary school this year, so she doesn't know much, she likes to run around in the hotel, she picked up a cat last year, and it was even more fun, if there is anything that disturbs your place, please feel free to tell me."

Boss Cheng added another sentence before leaving the room.

"Teacher, do you have any arrangements for the afternoon, I want to go to the black sand beach to play!"

Riko Asano said that the black sand beach is black sand as the name suggests, and the sand there is almost all black, it is a famous attraction in Hawaii, and she has been paying attention to it when she read the tourist brochure before.

"Well, let's go there, I happen to have some interests too."

Qiao Qiao nodded.

At the same time, the assembled revolver was silently put into the carry-on backpack.

"Huh?"

Sensing as if there was some kind of gaze staring at him, Qiao Qiao raised his head and looked around.

Only the figure of a cat was seen, deftly moving away from the fence.

......

Hawaii's black sand beach is located on the southeast Kawu Coast, about a twenty-minute drive away.

After a Hawaiian island lunch, the two drove to the black sand beach.

"It's all black, really."

Riko Asano changed into hot pants and a printed T-shirt with a summer style, and small earrings with strawberry patterns hanging from her ears, she carried a small bag, took off her sandals, and tried to step on the beach barefoot.

"I've heard that the sand here is cursed or something, and if you take it home, you may encounter misfortune."

She leaned down and gently grabbed a handful of sand.

"Wow, it's a turtle, teacher, teacher, look at it, it's a big one."

In the distance, at the junction of the beach and the sea, several large sea turtles are lazily basking in the sun, even if there are tourists walking nearby, they don't seem to care in the slightest.

"When it comes to black sand beaches, it's actually related to volcanic eruptions."

Qiao Qiao was unmoved, and said as he looked at Ariko Asano, who was playing.

"The lava is cooled by seawater, it can't withstand the tension of the steam inside and it falls apart, and then it has been polished by the seawater over time to form such fragments, well, if memory serves, the composition of this gravel is probably ferric tetroxide, which is usually black."

"Yes, is that so?"

Asano Riko was stunned and looked at the grit in her hand again.

"As for the curse or something, it is probably just a lie made up by the local tourism department, after all, the time it takes to form such a gravel may be calculated in tens of millions of years, if every tourist comes to take a bottle as a souvenir, it won't be long before this black sand beach will cease to exist."

Qiao Qiao walked over to the warning sign.

The warning signs say that the sand and gravel cannot be removed and that the turtles cannot be approached.

The black sand beach also seems to be a wildlife sanctuary, and visitors here are almost always short-lived, not as frolicking as other beaches.

He crouched down.

Less than ten meters away from him, a sea turtle suddenly opened its eyes.

"Hello, I'm an acquaintance of the owner of the late-night cafeteria, and he asked me to say hello to you."

Qiao Qiao said to the turtle.

“?”

The turtle moved.

Its gaze swept around to make sure there were no other tourists, and then slowly moved towards Qiao Bridge.

"You mean, the late-night cafeteria?"

The turtle's voice was very old, but it was still in good spirits.

"Yes, he said that it was a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to see you again for so many years thanks to your care when he was young."

Qiao Qiao said.

From the outsider's point of view, he was probably teasing the turtle.

There are many more such scenes on this black sand beach.

"Since it's a late-night cafeteria, there must be one."

One person and one turtle chatted a few more words, and the turtle's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Well, he asked me to bring it."

Qiao Qiao said, and took out two stones that were as round as jade and crystal clear from his backpack.

He threw it lightly, and before the stone hit the ground, he was attracted by some kind of force and fell into the mouth of the turtle.

"Mmmmmmmm

The turtle chews carefully and swallows it into its stomach.

This is a spirit stone that has been nourished by the spiritual power of the shrine, and although it is not as good as similar items made by special means, it is also a very rare and nourishing thing for youkai.

"That guy really has a good apprentice."

The turtle looked Qiao Qiao up and down, quite emotional.

"If you're in trouble here, come to me, I'll be basking in the sun here most of the time."

The turtle spoke again.

"Hawaii hasn't been peaceful lately, so you'd better be careful."

"I see."

Qiao Qiao watched the turtle return to his own kind, and turned over into the sea, without the slightest appearance of a youkai with a lifespan of more than 800 years.

"Asano shrine maiden, let's ...... next"

Qiao Qiao turned around and wanted to ask Asano about Ariko's intentions in the future.

But I found that I don't know when.

Asako Asano is gone.
