476. The Girl
Feng Zhiqi's school trip was a short trip of three days and two nights in terms of itinerary planning. In the first two days, the school's leading teacher led the tour to the places specified in the itinerary, such as Kiyomizudera Temple on the first day, and a series of temples close to Nanzenji Temple and Ginkakuji Temple, which were visited one after another.
Not that...... Why are they all temples? Do you want to popularize the importance of ordination to contemporary high school students? Do you want it?
On the second day, we visited the area from Taiqin to Luoxi, focusing on the Taiqin Movie Village, a period drama theme park and the actual filming location of period dramas, as well as Kinkakuji Temple.
Because there was no bus to pick up and drop off after arriving in Taiqin, Feng Zhiqi's students began to act in small groups, which was also one of the important meanings of the school's request for a group of four to act. However, there are no specific routes, but there is a set time to reach the next attraction, so you don't have to worry about students slipping away or even something bad that people don't want to see.
After thinking about the key, Jiang Yu couldn't help but show a slightly mocking smile, and secretly said that this is not Ikebukuro, how could something bad happen?
Because of this, Jiang Yu and his party, who were not very interested in the film village, passed by Ritsumeikan University, the alma mater of the light writer Nishio Restoration, who he liked very much in the last world and in this world, on the way to Kinkakuji Temple on the way to Kinkakuji Temple later.
The other three were naturally quite puzzled, but after Jiang Yu explained, they also showed a little interest and expressed their approval.
After all, most otaku, even if they haven't watched the "Monogatari series", they must have heard of it; Even if you don't know the name of the Nishio Restoration, when this name is lightly bound to the price of popular literature, you won't unconsciously show a look of amazement on your face.
By the way, when these loyal fans of "Spring Things" gathered together to discuss the plot and characters, Jiang Yu just stayed quietly with a slightly tired smile, and in the face of Lun's occasional surprise and subsequent inquiring gaze, he just shook his head slightly, signaling that it was okay for him.
To be reasonable, when this kind of fan of his own work talks about related topics excitedly in front of him, the person who is the creator, in addition to the unnaturalness at the beginning, seems to become a little smug later.
Even that work, in fact, is not his. But this adds a little more pleasure to the success of the mission, and this taste is self-explanatory.
Along the way in the past two days, Jiang Yu looked at this route that was not much different from what he remembered, and showed a subtle and slightly nostalgic expression. But there is no way to do it, after all, the so-called "travel" is to arrive at a place that is not your own life, and then as a matter of course you will visit the local representative attractions and landmarks.
That night, after taking a bath in the bathhouse of the hotel, Jiang Yu listened to the noisy mahjong playing next door, and secretly said What is so fun about this thing? But thinking about a cartoonist who never delivered on time, he couldn't help but nod his head in understanding. So...... The rich old thief eats me a spear!
After that, because the atmosphere next to him was too hot, Jiang Yu had a premonition that if he didn't slip away as soon as possible, he would even be dragged into it. So he wrapped up his coat and went to the first floor of the hotel where he was staying, bought two cans of coffee from the vending machine next to him, and then snuggled up on the couch provided to the guests, and his hands began to tap on the screen of his mobile phone.
He's writing a travel journal.
After all, he said that he would tell his sister about the experience of the school trip when he went back, and although he didn't have to worry about the risk of forgetting the things in his mind in the short term, he still recorded them in writing, which made him feel more at ease.
After writing, Jiang Yu slowly sipped coffee while looking out of the thick glass window, in this corner of Kyoto, the slightly lonely autumn night scene.
Tomorrow is the last day of the school trip, and according to the school's arrangement, it is free time for students. All students are free to spend time with club mates, boyfriends and girlfriends, regardless of class or group, and their activities are not limited to Kyoto City, but can also be found in Osaka and Nara.
In this regard, Jiang Yu had discussed with Lun Ye and the three of them before, and after discovering that they wanted to take the opportunity to visit the holy land, he gave up the idea of being a colleague, and decided to take a look at a few places he wanted to go to after visiting them.
After thinking about things, he happened to finish the two cans of sweet MAX coffee, threw the iron cans into the trash can that specializes in collecting empty drink bottles, Jiang Yu turned around and prepared to return to the room. And at this moment, a ponytail dangling at the back of his head attracted his attention.
He looked at it and made sure that he was not mistaken, then hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Where are you going so late?" Kato? β
"Huh?" The ponytail girl who was suddenly stopped let out a small exclamation that was frightened, and then immediately turned around and looked over, and after finding that it was Jiang Yu, she was obviously relieved, stroked her chest and said, "It turned out to be Jiang Jun...... Scared my ......"
Jiang Yu scratched his cheeks a little uncomfortably, and repeated the previous question: "I'm sorry...... But it's so late, Kato, are you going out? According to my inaccurate memory, the teacher should have said that the range of activities before going to sleep should be limited to this hotel, right? β
This is one of the important reasons why he will snuggle up on the first floor in search of quiet.
"I had already gotten permission from the teacher before I came out."
Megumi Kato said this as she walked towards Jiang Yu.
"Oh...... That's ......."
Jiang Yu, who didn't know how to proceed with the conversation, had to nod in a daze, and then looked at the girl's gradually approaching figure, and suddenly moved his body and gave up half of the space.
However, Megumi Kato sat down on another sofa as if she hadn't seen this action.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Yu blinked his eyes in a daze, coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, and sat back in his original position according to the guidance of the heat.
After all, late autumn is still quite cold.
Just as he was looking for a topic, Kato Megumi suddenly asked, "Why is Jiang Jun here?" β
It seems like you don't have the slightest surprise that I'm alone, right?
Jiang Yu exhaled softly, watching it turn into a white mist in the cold air of late autumn, lingering, and then disappearing, and then replied: "It's just because the room is too noisy, what about you, Kato?" β
After asking naturally, Jiang Yu remembered that he had already told the convenience before that he would appear here, so he scratched his cheek and changed the question: "Ah...... I mean, Kato, what are you going to do out there? β
Megumi Kato responded with a smile, "Go to the convenience store next door and buy something." β
Jiang Yu nodded clearly, the next door in the other party's mouth was naturally not really next door, but not far from the same street as this hotel.
However, he still subconsciously asked: "What is it?" β
The smile on Megumi Kato's face has not changed, and his tone is still flat and gentle, but the words he said made Jiang Yu seem to feel the cold wind of the late autumn night: "If you continue to ask questions, it will seem very uninteresting?" Jiang Jun. β
Jiang Yu's shoulders shook violently, and he lowered his head and said, "Yes, I'm sorry." β
"Why apologize?"
Megumi Kato squeezed the eyebrows on both sides of her eyebrows a little puzzled.
Not that...... Miss Kato, didn't you realize what kind of aura you just exuded?
Jiang Yu carefully observed the expression of the girl beside him for a while, laughed dryly, and said, "No, nothing." β
Terrible, right? This main heroine!
"Is that so?"
Megumi Kato didn't mean to continue the investigation, but took out the phone from his pocket and pressed it with a click.
Seeing this, the corners of Jiang Yu's mouth twitched, and he secretly thought to himself that you weren't going to buy something? What are you doing now?
But of course, he didn't have the courage to say it - because he always had a premonition that something terrible would happen if he said it.
He had always believed in his hunch.
Just when he was a little restless, Megumi Kato suddenly put away his mobile phone, stood up at the same time, tilted his head and whispered, "Let's go." β
"Let's go?" Three question marks instantly appeared above Jiang Yu's head, "Where are you going?" β
Megumi Kato raised his mobile phone and explained calmly: "I asked the teacher just now if I could go with another person, and the teacher readily agreed." β
"Waitββ!" Jiang Yu rubbed the temples on both sides, "The teacher promised so easily?" No, I mean, when did I say it...... Uh......"
Speaking of the halfway, Jiang Yu suddenly found that the sentence he just said seemed to be a forbidden word when communicating with girls, and once he said it, it meant that it was over. Therefore, he had to forcibly swallow the question, and Ying He said, "...... Let's go. β
And Megumi Kato nodded indifferently as if she didn't hear the clumsy cover-up in Jiang Yu's words just now, and took the lead.
Jiang Yu followed behind her, looking at the swaggering ponytail, and an urge to grab it suddenly rose in his heart. However, for the sake of his own life, he finally gave up on this tempting idea.
The hotel wasn't on the main road, so even though it wasn't too late, there weren't many cars whizzing by. The streets of Kyoto are very interesting, probably deliberately designed by the people who designed the city, and the streets of Kyoto City are as neat as a chessboard, not only the roads are straight, but even the corners are 90 degrees.
Thanks to this, Jiang Yu and Megumi Kato walked one after the other, and they were not worried that they would suddenly lose each other's traces.
At the first corner of this secondary traffic road, there is a traffic light, and the convenience store that Megumi Kato said is there.
After entering, Megumi Kato took a shopping basket and began to choose what to buy, and Jiang Yu, who had nothing to buy, stood in front of the book shelf, scanning all kinds of books back and forth, trying to find the reading materials he was interested in.
Soon, Jiang Yu's eyes locked on a manga magazine, because its publishing house was Kadokawa Bookstore.
He picked it up and flipped through the table of contents, and when he found the familiar name, he couldn't help but smile with relief, and then he put the book down, as if he had no interest in its contents.
Of course, every time he helps Mahaku clean up his room at home, Jiang Yu always sees the draft drawn by the other party for serialization, so he doesn't know how lucky he is compared to the readers who are waiting for the next work of "Shiina Mahaku-sensei".
After spending so much effort, Megumi Kato bought something and walked to his side. Jiang Yu was a little surprised by how quickly the girl picked up the items, but her right hand took the plastic bag very naturally, and at the same time asked in her mouth, "Why is it so fast this time?" β
This time, of course, there was a last time, and the last time, dating back to May, he accompanied the girl to the newly opened Six Heavenly Horse Mall to go shopping.
Megumi Kato naturally understood the meaning of Jiang Yu's words, but she corrected seriously: "This is not shopping. β
Well, it seems that in the minds of girls, shopping and shopping are not synonymous.
Jiang Yu wisely didn't choose to refute, just shrugged his shoulders, walked out of the convenience store, and walked in the direction he was going to be.
On the way back, the two still didn't have much conversation, and Megumi Kato, who was walking behind, raised his eyes a few times to look at the figure in front of him with a little undulating pace of walking, pursed his lips, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he stopped talking. Finally, when she was about to arrive at the hotel, she finally asked casually, "Tomorrow is free activity day, Jiang Jun, what are you going to do?" β
Of course, Jiang Yu didn't hear the hint of caution hidden under the casual tone, or the girl's natural shyness, and responded nonchalantly: "What do I ...... Let's take a look at a few places of interest, and then go buy some of the souvenirs that Koburi asked me to bring back! What about you, Kato? β
"Hmm......" Megumi Kato muttered for a long time, and even the road that was not long or short was almost at the end, before he spoke again, "Because I only came to Kyoto once not long ago, I don't feel very interested in anywhere~"
"That's it......" Jiang Yu yawned suddenly, and then immediately wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his free hand, "Speaking of which, everyone in the club, Sawamura can't come for the progress of the game, Kato, you've been here before, and Lun also has an important task of collecting materials, although my words also have a certain intention of taking materials, but in the end, is it actually the one who enjoys this journey the most?" β
"Enjoyed the most...... Is it? Megumi Kato nodded thoughtfully when she heard this, and her lips suddenly raised an arc, "The single shadow only acts with recklessness, is that Jiang Jun's understanding of 'enjoyment'?" β
