Chapter Seventy-Three: The Osprey Sacrifice

The osprey festival has arrived.

When it was time for the end of school at Osaki City High School, one of the forks leading from the residential area to the main road, this road was neither wide nor narrow, just enough to accommodate three cars in parallel, and many stalls were already set up at this moment.

Workers are adding models of ospreys to street lamps as decorations.

Qin Ren looked at the decorations on both sides of the road with great interest, the vegetable stalls that used to shout that their vegetables were cheaper than supermarkets were gone, there were no wine bottles tied in baskets at the door of the hotel, and there were no female students gathered in front of the cake shop on the way from school.

It's surprisingly deserted, but it's also a prelude to the arrival of a more lively scene.

He was a little emotional as he watched the conversation between the owner of the dry cleaner and the workers, who were busy stacking their luggage in the pickup van.

If you were an ordinary person, how nice it would be to live in a peaceful world.

After walking for a while, he stopped.

Because, in front of him, a young girl appeared.

A girl with short light blue hair who was standing on the side of the road, standing under a tree, looking up at the birds on the street lamp.

Guard Sly.

The name came to mind, and the Qin people approached the other party.

When he got closer, the girl looked at the bird decoration on the street lamp as if she didn't notice it.

"It's just a doll, but it's much cuter than the main body."

Qin Ren touched his chin and couldn't help but say something.

"My Black Katy is purer than a doll like this."

A voice sounded, and then a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a shirt and suit trousers and looking like a butler walked out.

The girl did not react to his words, as if she had heard nothing, and moved her gaze to the bird decoration on another lamppost.

"'Thousand Changes' General Xiu Denan, you seem to be doing quite a good job as a butler?"

The Qin people said in Chinese.

According to Xana's setting, the myths and legends of all countries are all left by the Red World.

The sacrificial snake is Fuxi, and the thousand-change Xiu Denan in front of him is "Chiyou".

Hearing the language spoken by the Qin people, Xiu Denan was slightly stunned.

As the first language he came into contact with in the modern world, the language he lived in for the longest time, even though the ancient language spoke differently from the present, but in terms of usage habits, he was accustomed to grammatical structures, and he just changed his pronunciation, and there was no difficulty.

In this language, he does not need to use the free method of "words of meaning" to translate the meaning.

But the Qin people had no intention of continuing to talk to him in Chinese.

He just sighed nostalgically, and didn't have any special thoughts.

And Xiu Denan is not really Chiyou, not the legendary Chiyou in the memory of the Qin people, but a character whose setting is based on the mythology in his memory.

Xiu Denan did not tell him what Chinese meant, but said:

"When are you going to do it?"

"You really don't want to give up on zero-hour fans."

In this regard, the corners of Qin Ren's mouth outlined a smile.

"Zero-hour fans certainly can't give up."

Xiu Denan stared at the white-haired man in front of him, is this man a human or a member of the Red World?

But no matter who the other party is, only what is in your own hands is more stable, this is the same truth.

"No problem, we can start tomorrow."

After speaking, the Qin people turned around and left.

.......

On the other side, on the bank of the river.

Yuji Sakai is talking to his friend Ikesoto next to him:

"Chi, how are you going to get around?"

For several days, the roads from the downtown area around Osaki City Station to the Manangawa River site, and the main roads including the Otetsubashi and Osaki Bridge across the river, to the surrounding shopping streets, have been busy preparing for the major annual festival.

The shopping street is mainly for decoration and business, and if you stand on the banks of the Zhennan River, you can see the spectacular sight of countless vendor tents set up on both sides of the river.

In fact, the main festival is held on the banks of the river.

"I'm going to go to the groundbreaking ceremony at Misaki Shrine."

Ji Suren raised his glasses and responded:

"Do you know the origin of the osprey festival?"

Yuji Sakai thought for a moment, then said:

"Osprey, it's a festival where the people of Shinnanchuan used to commemorate fishing, right?"

"No, the osprey festival has nothing to do with the osprey, the osprey is a bird of the eagle family, a seabird, a festival that symbolizes the arrival of winter, and the origin of the osprey festival is a groundbreaking ceremony held at the Misaki Shrine on a hill north of the residential area, and the more detailed origin is not known, so I don't know."

"In other words, what did the two originally unrelated things become one thing?"

Yuji Sakai guessed with some curiosity.

"Who knows? In short, because ospreys are seabirds, and they are a symbol of winter, they don't seem to match the name of the summer festival in Osaki City, which is not surrounded by the sea at all. ”

Ji Suren raised his glasses, but then he asked, intentionally or unintentionally:

"Sakai, did Yoshida-san invite you to participate in the osprey festival with you?"

"Nope." Yuji Sakai thought for a moment, "When I sent Konoe-san home today, Yoshida seemed to be going to say something......"

"By the way, maybe she wants to call the guards with her, she's just arrived in this city and isn't familiar with the festival yet, right?"

Sakai Yuji suddenly slapped his left palm with his right hand, and the good old man had a psychological attack:

"You can take her to play."

Looking at his appearance, Chi Suren couldn't help but sigh:

"What about Hirai-san? Are you invited? ”

"Xana shouldn't have any interest in these things, right?"

The impression of "Fire Mist Warrior" in my mind has long been fixed.,Yuji Sakai has read.、In the comics dominated by shonen manga, there is no "tsundere" that causes trouble for others and themselves.,In addition to God's perspective, I can't see the "shy" character that can make people feel very "cute"There is a good trend.,Naturally, there is no such high.、"Everyone has" "EQ":

"That's why I'm here with you."

This answer made Chi Suren speechless, and he shook his head:

"Then you can come along, no one will go to the groundbreaking ceremony anyway."

Sakai Yuji didn't refuse, and followed Ikespeedo towards the hill north of the residential area.

"If we're lucky, we'll be able to catch the last train of the festival after the groundbreaking ceremony."

Ji Suren smiled and shook his head.

Yuji Sakai also smiled, in the past few months, he has experienced too many things, and he feels that his daily life is about to be out of touch with himself.

However, at this moment, he suddenly saw two people appear in front of him.

Konoe-san and her housekeeper.
