Jiang Yu didn't hear it, but suddenly stopped, half-turned to look at the girl, and said calmly: "It's here." ”

Megumi Kato looked up and realized that they had already walked to the door of the hotel.

"And-" The moment before stepping through the door, Jiang Yu spoke again, "I always feel that Kato, you have been getting more and more mean to me recently...... No, it's getting more and more unkind, is it my delusion? If not, or if I accidentally offended you without knowing it, could you please tell me? ”

Megumi Kato was stunned when she heard this, listening to the other party's helplessness, and even with a somewhat begging tone for mercy, she couldn't help but show a slightly funny expression, and then walked quickly in front of Jiang Yu, turned around, and the light skirt of Feng Zhiqi's college uniform danced with it, and said with a straight face: "Yes!" You have indeed offended me severely! So—"

Speaking of this, the deliberately serious and indifferent on the girl's face turned into a faint smile, like a warm and soft spring breeze, wrapped in fine cherry blossom petals, lightly slammed open the half-hidden door, rushed to the heart of the young man who was caught off guard, and rushed to the eyebrows of the trembling young man.

"So, tomorrow, please make it up to me."

After finishing speaking, Megumi Kato stretched out his hand to Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu subconsciously handed over his free hand, but got a roll of the girl's eyes.

Seeing this, he nodded suddenly and handed out a bag of things that he had been carrying. Megumi Kato took it, then nodded lightly at him, said "good night", and turned to walk towards the stairs.

This little daughter's posture came and went in a hurry, and even the bland tone after that made people wonder if the previous scene was someone's delusion.

And the young man who was stunned in place naturally had no chance to see the faint red glow that finally appeared on the girl's face after stepping on the stairs, as well as the earlobes that were as crystal clear as red crystals.

Question: When a girl who usually behaves extremely calm and insipid suddenly reveals her "girl" side, how will those who are lucky enough to witness it feel?

Answer: Heartbeat.

Therefore, Jiang Yu just looked at the shadow of the girl disappearing at the top of the stairs in a daze, felt his heart suddenly jump from 70 beats per minute to 110 beats, subconsciously twisted his arm, and felt the severe pain, only then did he confirm that it was not his hallucination.

“…… Appointment? ”

After standing at the entrance of the hall in a daze for a long time, such a word suddenly came out of his mouth. However, he immediately denied himself: "If this is also counted, then I don't know how many girls I have dated since I came here." ”

So, it's not dating.

But in the end, it is necessary to define it, or in other words, find a term to describe it, to demarcate it.

In the end, when he returned to the room that had fallen into a mahjong parlor, Jiang Yu finally searched for a suitable word in his mind.

Swim with your arms.

Well...... It doesn't have to be hand-in-hand.

……

Early the next morning, although his heart was a little surging last night, Jiang Yu, who still slept very comfortably, woke up on time under the call of the alarm clock. He dressed neatly, washed up, took some of the necessary things with him, and went straight out.

Since it is a free day, the time for each student to get up and go out is also different. Jiang Yu didn't get up early, and of course it wasn't late. The second floor of the hotel was a breakfast service, and by the time he walked in, the hall was about half full.

Using the bread machine that happened to be empty, he tested two slices of slightly browned toast, and then picked up a full glass of milk from the drink machine next to him, he found a free corner, and used his mobile phone to pass the time while eating.

He had told Kato last night that he would meet at the restaurant, and it was not the agreed time yet, so he was not in a hurry. However, Jiang Yu thought about it for a while, and still sent a message through line asking if the other party needed him to help get a breakfast.

Within a few minutes, the reply was not received, but Jiang Yu suddenly noticed that someone had pulled out the chair opposite him and sat down. He raised his head in some surprise and looked at it, and after seeing who it was, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull, and he sighed and said, "Since Kato is early, tell me as soon as possible......"

Megumi Kato fiddled with the small tomatoes on the plate and said noncommittally, "Because ten minutes ago, it felt like you hadn't gotten up yet." ”

"That's right...... There is no way to argue with it. ”

Jiang Yu scratched his cheek and smiled. As a male otaku who has spent four years of college life, the preparation before going out cannot be described simply. Scribbling or even perfunctory may be a more appropriate word in the eyes of modern female high school students.

"Right~"

Megumi Kato smiled and agreed, and then began to eat the breakfast on the plate silently. And Jiang Yu, who originally followed the principle of "eating without saying a word, sleeping without speaking", naturally had nothing to do, and also began to fill his stomach.

When cleaning up the dishes, Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help asking, "By the way, is it okay with your friend's side, Kato?" What to say about high school girls...... That should be a hassle, right? ”

He refers to the troublesome and sensitive social issues, because of the relationship between some books he has read before and the animations he has watched, coupled with his own feelings in the past six months or so, he has a deep feeling for the saying that "school is a small society" here in Japan, as well as the vague huddle and exclusion between students.

But...... This is not to mean that he has suffered any psychological trauma, but he is just habitually standing in the perspective of a bystander, calmly observing the situation in the class, so that he, who is already relatively sharp, is a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

This also gave him the idea of having another work that depicts school bullying incidents to meet you in this world.

Although Jiang Yu consciously said it quite secretly, he was sure that the girl in front of him would definitely be able to understand.

Sure enough, Megumi Kato was stunned for a moment, and then said in a flat tone: "I told them that it was a club activity." ”

"This can also be considered a club activity......

Jiang Yu pursed his lips and complained with some tears and laughter. He always thought that Megumi Kato was a girl who would face it calmly or even plainly no matter what the situation, but he didn't expect that in the face of the possible consequences or misunderstandings caused by calmly stating today's itinerary, he actually made a decision that was close to lying.

No way, who said that in the eyes of contemporary Japanese high school students, a man and a woman traveling together is about the same as dating?

However, if you insist on saying that today is a club activity, it can barely be regarded as a club activity. After all, Jiang Yu traveled today for two purposes - to collect materials and buy souvenirs. Of course, the material can be taken not only for one's own work, but also for the work of the community.

Facing Jiang Yu's somewhat subtle gaze, Megumi Kato seemed to easily understand the meaning, and calmly explained: "Although I don't know what Jiang Jun thinks of me, I'm also a girl?" Moreover, even if it is the 'main heroine' whose meaning is unknown...... It's a girl, too, right? ”

Jiang Yu's face instantly flushed, and he defended himself with a little embarrassment: "I didn't mean that......"

"What do you mean?"

Megumi Kato, however, went against his usual appearance of being as plain as water and not moving as a mountain, and unexpectedly grabbed the sore foot in his words and asked.

In the face of the girl's questioning, Jiang Yu, who couldn't say why, naturally only remained silent.

Fortunately, his temperament has always been calm and indifferent...... Or because of the conversation just now, the girl who became calm and indifferent again, didn't embarrass the young man in front of her who wanted to talk and rested, but couldn't say that the weather was cool and autumn. Her lips lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile, put down the plate, and walked first to the outside of the hall on the second floor.

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, although there was a slight abnormality in his heart, but he was not at the point where he was an idiot to ask in public. He also put down the plate in his hand and kept up with the pace of the girl in front of him.

……

The first stop for the two was Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine.

Because Megumi Kato didn't propose any places he wanted to go, the planning of the route naturally fell on Jiang Yu's head. Fortunately, he is very good at planning, at least in this kind of short-term planning. If you really want to show enthusiasm, he can even write down clearly in the itinerary for you which train to take at what time. However, since this trip was a temporary start after coming to Kyoto, he didn't plan it very carefully.

Inari is the god of grain and food in Japanese mythology, in charge of the harvest. Even if there is a saying of "eight million gods" in Japan, the god Inari can be regarded as a very important and special existence.

Before the Industrial Revolution, the most important thing among farming peoples was land, crops, and food. Although Japan was an island country drifting away from the mainland, after learning from the Tang Dynasty, it gradually changed into a country that was half fishing, hunting and half farming. Even if it was later transformed again due to the Meiji Restoration, this deity's status in the hearts of the people cannot be compared with that of other lesser-known gods, and even now, Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is one of the most incense-burning shrines in Kyoto.

Fushimi Inari Taisha is the most famous, and it has to be the Senbon torii. Hundreds of vermilion torii gates form a passage to the summit of Mt. Inari, and there are dozens of stone statues of foxes. This is because foxes are regarded as messengers of the god Inari, and the fox-faced Ema is also a feature of the area.

Among the ACG works that Jiang Yu has come into contact with, there are also fox-like unknown creatures that are related to the god Inari.

When you step into the shrine, no matter what you're here for, the first thing you have to do is to pay a visit.

Visiting Japanese shrines naturally has its own process and taboos. Jiang Yu didn't know much about this, but when he looked at Kei Kato, who was walking in the middle of the road like no one was around, he still couldn't hold back his thoughts that he didn't know whether it was teaching or showmanship, pulled the girl over, and talked about it in detail on the side.

"The way to approach doesn't care about the left and right, as long as you don't go to the center, it's correct. In Shinto, the center of the approach is reserved for the gods to follow, so it is natural for mortals to walk on both sides as a sign of respect. ”

"Before visiting the shrine, you need to wash your hands. The place to wash your hands is called 'Mitarai'. The correct way to do this is to pick up the scoop with your right hand, catch the water from the spout, and pour it on your left hand. Then, naturally, I took it with my left hand to wash my right hand. Finally, take the water again with a spoon in your right hand, pour it on your left hand, and rinse your mouth with it. ”

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yu put the water into his mouth, and after a few grunts, spit it in the sink below. Then he stood up the scoop and placed it under the spout, cleaning only the part of the handle. Wet hands should not be wiped dry, but should be allowed to air dry.

After a whole hand-washing process last night, Jiang Yu handed the water spoon to the stunned Kato Megumi, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's your turn, Kato." ”

Hearing this, the girl subconsciously took the water spoon, and the ponytail on the back of her head shook slightly. She looked at Jiang Yu a little strangely, as if she had a thousand words to say.

He smiled mysteriously, with an unfathomable look. Unexpectedly, the next moment, Megumi Kato seemed to have figured it out, nodded clearly, and said indifferently: "Is this from galgame, or is it from the manga?" ”

I got along with Jiang Yu for half a year...... Well, in fact, for a year and a half, Megumi Kato didn't dare to say how well she knew him, but she was sure that the other party was not the kind of person who was used to praying to God and worshiping Buddha. Therefore, this kind of chicken-like knowledge can only come from things that the other party may come into contact with and can tell about Japanese culture.

After the conclusion is reached, it is naturally very simple to get the final answer.

Jiang Yu was stunned when he heard this, shook his head and smiled helplessly, as if he felt a little bored, and whispered: "It's a game~ game." ”

Hearing the other party say this, Megumi Kato didn't show any smug expression, but nodded as a matter of course, which made Jiang Yu even more depressed.

The little flaunting just now didn't seem to impress the other party, but instead deepened the otaku label that he himself couldn't erase for a long time.

It's like calligraphy, not only did he not write a new word, but he added a few more strokes to the original words, making them more vivid and vivid.

After washing their hands, the two lined up in the line to worship and walked slowly.

After all, it is a well-known shrine in the country and even in the world, and even if they come a little earlier, there are still quite a lot of people in it, and the queue to worship is naturally lengthened. Perhaps because it is rare to come to a large shrine, even those foreign tourists with large backpacks follow the guide's previous instructions to visit the shrine very carefully and carefully.
