After Rina Asakawa finished her homework, Nishiro Shikiki told Rina Asakawa about the general matters.

may have to go to Aichi Prefecture for a few days, and it is estimated that Hakumi Miko will take care of her these days.

But - it's not so much about taking care of it, it's about confirming the state of Rina Asakawa's life... After all, although Rina Asakawa has the ability to live independently, just in case, someone still has to look at her from time to time.

Regarding the Xicheng-style arrangement, Rina Asakawa only hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Her temperament has always been quite weak, and she is in charge of the small things in the family, but the big things have always been Xicheng's ideas.

But... Get along with the White Mist Divine Son... It's going to be a bit tough these days... And I want to have a good relationship with Miko...

Thinking about it, she secretly glanced at the white mist god, only to find that the other party was also looking at her like a chicken.

Ahem –

The two men looked away.

Awkward, awkward.

The White Mist Miko side is greedy for the West Castle body, and the Asakawa Rina side wants to guard the West City style body.

This is a conflict of purpose.

Nishijo Shiki, who was next to him, noticed the small movements of the White Mist Miko and Rina Asakawa but didn't care.

There is really no need to care, some things may feel awkward now, but after getting along for a long time, they feel normal.

But if there is really no way to close the distance between the two people, then the Xicheng style will not force them.

After a few more words, Nishijo decided to go to the room to pack his luggage.

As a result, before he could stand up, Rina Asakawa over there took the initiative to stand up: "I'll help you pack your luggage, Brother Shiki." ”

"I can do it myself." Nishijo-style waved his hand and motioned for Rina Asakawa to sit down.

He's an adult anyway, and he wants a little girl to pack his luggage... That's too much.

"But..."Rina Asakawa glanced at Nishigi Shiki, and muttered a little helplessly: "Brother Shiki, you basically don't bring a change of clothes when you go out... I remember the last time you went out with an empty suitcase and came back buying a box of clothes..."

It seems that it is because Xicheng style is troublesome, so he basically does not bring a change of clothes when he goes out.

If he wanted to change clothes, he would buy them locally and bring them back.

The speed of this money like a flood has made Rina Asakawa feel distressed I don't know how many times, but Nishijo doesn't care, and will buy her a lot of clothes.

To be honest, Rina Asakawa was very happy to receive the gift, but when she was happy, she thought that these were all clothes that she had bought at a great price in the West Castle style... Small hearts can also throb.

"It's just to buy clothes, and there is no shortage of money at home." Xicheng Shi was very straightforward about this, and his face was quite calm: "It's too bulky and troublesome to carry a box of clothes. ”

“... This..."Rina Asakawa opened her mouth, and then said to the white mist Miko as if she had reacted: "Sister Miko, you can also help me persuade Brother Shiki." ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, the White Mist Divine Son was stunned.

"No... That one... I don't bring any clothes with me when I run around... It's just a suitcase... When it was time to change clothes, I bought them locally and changed them up. ”

She raised her hand a little embarrassed.

The 'running around' that the White Mist Miko is referring to here refers to when she is captured by the Eternal Sacrifice Society.

At that time, she and the white fog and deep snow could save her life as long as she could save her life, so she still wanted to get clothes? It's basically running around with a bank card and money.

"Uh..."

Listening to what the White Mist Miko said, Rina Asakawa opened her mouth with difficulty.

She was a little skeptical of life.

Could it be that the children of a big family are like this when they go out to travel? Bring your own clothes and buy them locally?

This is different from what I watched on TV dramas...

Rina Asakawa has already classified the white mist Miko as the lady of the big family fighting for power in the TV series... After all, her way of acting is exactly the same as that of Brother Shi, the 'son in distress'.

"Rina, you don't have to worry about my travel."

Xicheng style showed a rare smile.

He reached out and touched Rina Asakawa's little head: "If everything goes well, this time it will be practical to come back in a few days." ”

What Xicheng said was not a lie.

After all, he went to Yasawa Town to meet with Oe Zi and ask about Natsuki Sasahara, if everything goes well, it will pass tomorrow and he will be able to come back the day after tomorrow, and it won't take too long at all.

After all, Japan is a small country, and transportation is relatively well-developed.

But... It has to be all going well.

If Dae Zi refuses to cooperate... I guess it will take a little more time.

......

Following.

The Nishijo style set off very early.

His route was simple, from the Shinkansen to Aichi Prefecture, then connecting to Shinjo and finally taking a city bus to Yasawa Town.

The whole process took five or six hours.

As soon as I got off the bus, I felt a sense of Japanese-style town that I couldn't experience in Tokyo.

The forest is scattered around standard Japanese-style houses with pitched roofs of different heights, low telephone poles, and old wooden bus stops.

From the perspective of Xicheng, you can see many residents of the town working in the flower fields, and some people have set up private eel breeding ponds...

Aichi Prefecture is a major source of timber production due to its vast forests, especially planted forests. In addition, the terrain here is diverse and rich in natural resources, so many residents have started the industry of flower cultivation and eel breeding.

A few years ago, Aichi Prefecture also launched a mascot image to promote the local tourism industry.

However, I don't know what the official of Aichi Prefecture thinks, but this mascot image is actually based on the local prefectural governor.

Because of this, this official tourist mascot is not as famous as the unofficial mascot of Aichi Prefecture Okazaki City, Okazaki Eimonosuke.

"Oe Purple..."

Nishijo muttered the name, carrying his suitcase, and walked towards the town of Yazawa.

Along the way, many people frequently looked sideways at Xicheng.

And of course.

A small town in Japan is not very big, and everyone in the town knows each other, and they will say hello when something happens, so everyone knows whom.

Therefore, when outsiders like Xicheng come to this kind of place, many people are naturally curious.

And some of these little girls -

Probably the girls from the local high school in Yasawa Town, their school uniforms are very retro-style black midi skirt uniforms, which are completely different from the high school girls in Tokyo who are eager to remove the word "skirt" from their school skirts.

At this time, they were curiously looking at Xicheng Shi walking on the road, followed by chattering discussions, and laughing from time to time, like the kind of boys who see beautiful women.

And it's no wonder.

The Xicheng style itself belongs to the kind of boys who are particularly good-looking, and it is normal for girls to stare at it.

It's not that he talks big, and when he walks on the road with Rina Asakawa, he will still be accosted by girls.

This situation is commonplace, so Xicheng didn't care about this group of little girls at all.

He's still thinking about finding a place to stay.

It's just that this place... Open the navigation and look at Street View. Where there are streets, what hotels are completely inaccurate ... It's all the last year or two.

Small place... And indeed it is.

Of course, this is not to say that Japan's network is underdeveloped, but that the utilization rate of Japan's network is actually very low.

A very simple example, QR code payment, which is very useful in China, is not particularly popular in Japan.

"That's... Excuse me, do you need help? ”

A woman's voice rang out next to her.

The person named Nozomi Nakayama, who took the initiative to greet Xichengshi, had the highest status in the group of little girls discussing Xichengshi, and she could see at a glance that Xichengshi was not a local, and it was even possible that he was not from Aichi Prefecture.

"I'm looking for a hotel to stay in." Xicheng Shi stopped, "Does Miss know of any hotels around here?" ”

"Staying at the hotel...?" Nakayama Nozomi turned his head to look at a girl in the crowd behind him: "Zhizi, your family has come to do business." ”

It was a girl with her head bowed and looking submissive in the crowd.

At this time, hearing Nozomi Nakayama say hello, she hurriedly squeezed out a smile, and at the same time walked out of the girls' group: "Come, come." ”

"This guy's name is Tomoko Fukaki, and he's the daughter of the owner of the only inn in our town."

Nozomi Nakayama very familiarly climbed onto the shoulder of Tomoko Fukaki, who was a little timid, and then introduced very self-talkingly: "Compared to this kind of inconsequential thing... My name is Nozomi Nakayama, can you leave a LINE number, handsome guy? ”

"Yes." Xicheng Shi glanced at Fukaki Tomoko and Nozomi Nakayama, and didn't say anything at this time.

This is obviously a matter in someone's little girl group, and he can't talk as an outsider, and it's not easy to speak.

After getting the Xicheng-style LINE number in her hand, Nozomi Nakayama seemed energetic, she went back to the girls' pile and chattered that she didn't know something, and then poked her head over:

"Speaking of which, what did Nishijo-kun want to do when he came to Yasawa Town? You're not a native of Aichi Prefecture, right? Locals don't come to a place where birds don't poop. ”

"I'm from Tokyo."

"From Tokyo?!"

This can detonate the topic of this group of country girls.

Not only Nozomi Nakayama, but many girls crowded over and asked one question after another.

At first, the problem was normal, probably because of the women's taste in Tokyo.

But the more you ask, the more exaggerated the question becomes.

For example, 'Does everyone in Tokyo carry a big box full of 10,000 yen bills?' ’

For example, do Tokyo people not drink water, eat milk three times a day, and even take a bath for money?' ’

There are too many slots in these problems, so that the Xicheng style is a little overwhelmed.

You say that everyone in Tokyo carries a big box with 10,000 yen bills in it... This... It's also quite heavy to carry a big box around, and common sense is impossible.

And taking a bath with money is even more nonsense, if you really use money to take a bath, it is estimated that you will get all kinds of skin diseases the next day - the bacteria on the money are not a joke.

Not to mention the other questions, one is more outrageous than the other, and after answering one or two questions out of politeness, Xicheng Shi simply spoke: "I actually have something to do when I came to Yasawa Town." ”

"Hmm... What's the matter? Xicheng-kun? If we can help our friends, we'll definitely help. ”

I have to say that Nozomi Nakayama is really a girl who is very good at relationships.

I just said two words, added a LINE number, and became friends.

But forget it... It doesn't make sense to say this, Xicheng thought for a moment, and then pretended to be casual and threw out the question: "Actually, I came to Yasawa Town to find a woman named Oe Zi, I don't know if you know this person?" ”

As soon as he said this, Xicheng Shiki keenly sensed that something was wrong with the air.

Several little girls looked at each other, and they were all strangely silent.

After almost two seconds, Zhongshan Xi had a reluctant smile on his face: "Xicheng-kun, we don't know much about this... It's called Oe Zi, right? I'll go back and ask my parents later, and I'll send you a LINE when the time comes. Tomoko, you remember to take Xicheng-kun to your hotel. ”

As she spoke, she took two steps back, bowed, and simply turned around and left.

And as soon as she left, it was as if she had caused an avalanche effect.

The girls who were as enthusiastic as if they had been given a sedative just now all retreated one by one as if they had been sedated, and they left one after another.

For a while, only Fukaki Tomoko, who lowered his head and didn't speak, was left next to Xicheng Shishi.

One look at it tells something is wrong.

Nozomi Nakayama obviously knew something, but they seemed to be afraid of something, so they didn't say anything.

Afraid...

Is it what happened to Oeshi after she returned to Yasawa Town? Why are they afraid?

Compared to that...

Nishijo turned his gaze to Tomoko Fukaki.

He had noticed from just now that when the name Oe Zi was mentioned, Fukaki Tomoko did not show much fear and fear.

Instead, she lowered her head in time, more like to hide her surprised expression.

Hear Oe Zi... She was surprised?

Xicheng's heart moved slightly, but he didn't say anything, just took the initiative to mention: "Miss Shenqi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you to take me to your hotel to stay." ”

"Ahh ”

She doesn't look like the kind of girl who is autistic and doesn't dare to speak, on the contrary, she seems to have a good set of social aspects.

But why is it that among the little girls in Zhongshan Xi, the status seems to be the lowest?

Xicheng Shi temporarily hid the mystery in his heart, and at the same time followed behind Fukaki Tomoko.

Walking into Yasawa Town, the streets and alleys are full of a remnant of Japan's last era.

It feels like this place is completely different from Tokyo, and you can peek into the shadow of Japan in the past.

After walking for about two or three minutes, Xicheng stopped in his tracks.

He arrived at the inn.

He didn't even need to be reminded by Tomoko Fukaki, he could tell that this was a hotel.

Nothing else.

The hotel in Guy is so conspicuous.

Yes.

At the entrance of the inn, someone smashed rotten eggs, and someone maliciously graffiti.

'Out-of-towners! Touched the unfortunate child! ’

'Get out! ’

'Defend the town!' ’

Distort the words of resentment.

with the strength to penetrate into the wood.

Left at the door of the inn.
