Led by Nanami Hashimoto, Nanase Nishino followed her to the tea room on the other side of the underground dojo.

After taking off her shoes at the door, Nanami Hashimoto opened the door of the tea room and walked inside, while Nanase Nishino followed closely behind her.

In the teahouse, Senya sat in front of a low table carved from tree roots, pouring a pot of hot water into the teapot. Seeing Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino coming in, Chiya smiled and said, "The two young ladies came by coincidence, and I was just about to make tea." ”

Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino stood at the door and bowed to Chiya and said, "Sorry Chiyo-san, I'm sorry to disturb you." ”

"It's okay, the two young ladies will sit down first." Qianye stretched out his hand in front of him and motioned for the two of them to sit down, while quickly pouring the water from the teapot into a pale blue porcelain water urn beside him. Then he took the kettle and poured boiling water into the teapot, and after the water filled the teapot, he skimmed off the foam with the teapot lid, covered the teapot lid, and poured boiling water on the body of the teapot.

Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino sat on the cloth ball in front of the low table, watching the movements of Chiya. Nana Hashimoto asked curiously, "Senya-san, are you making tea?" Why does it feel so different from the tea ceremony? ”

Nanase Nishino on the side grabbed the juniper fan in his hand, looked curiously at Qianya and the tea set on the low table in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a sense of déjà vu in his heart.

Chiya put the kettle on the small red clay charcoal stove on the side, picked up three teacups from the side and put them in front of his eyes, poured boiling water into the teacup, and slowly washed the teacups with the bamboo clip. While washing the teacup, he said to Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino: "My friend gave me some Chinese green tea, and I have nothing to do, so I plan to taste it, and the two young ladies came at the right time to taste this tea from China." ”

After speaking, he put down the bamboo clip in his hand, picked up the teapot on the side, poured the brewed tea into a fair cup with a round belly and wide mouth on the side, and poured the tea into the three teacups, put the teapot down, and motioned for Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino to taste.

Nanami Hashimoto and Nanase Nishino picked up the teacup with some curiosity, sniffed it gently, and felt a moist fragrance of tea coming to their nostrils. After taking a small sip curiously, a light tea fragrance slightly different from Japanese matcha lingered in the mouths of the two.

Nanase Nishino tasted the tea in his hand, and seemed to feel that he had drunk it somewhere, so he asked, "Chiba-san, what kind of tea is this?" ”

Chiba looked at Nanase Nishino, who showed a mouthful of good-looking teeth with a smile, and said to her with a smile: "Miss Nishino can call me Senya the same as Nana Min." ”

Nanase Nishino smiled shyly at Chiya and said, "Then Chiya-san is also the same as everyone else, just call me Nanasai, or you can also call me Nanase Maru." If you always call me Miss Nishino, I feel that Senya-san, you are too polite. ”

After drinking the tea in the teacup, Qianye put the teacup on the low table and laughed loudly: "In this way, it's not down." Then I'll teach you Nana Race in the future. ”

Nanase Nishino heard Chiya say this, grabbed the juniper fan in his hand, pursed his lips and nodded with a smile.

Nana Hashimoto didn't see Nanase Nishino chatting with Chiya intimately, and glared at Chiya with a little dissatisfaction. Seeing Nana Hashimoto glaring at herself, Qianye knew that she was jealous, and Qianye, who felt a little sweet and funny, picked up the fair cup and added tea to Nana Hashimoto at the same time, and touched her little hand imperceptibly.

Nana Hashimoto didn't feel Chiya's small movements, so she glanced at him angrily and said, "Chiya-san, you haven't answered Nanasai's question yet." What kind of tea is this? ”

Qianye looked at Nanami Hashimoto, who deliberately puffed out her cheeks and pretended to be angry, and explained with a smile: "This is the Huangshan Maofeng that my next Chinese friend gave me, a very famous green tea. Compared to matcha, the taste is more refreshing and elegant. ”

Nanase Nishino, who was on the side, finished drinking the tea in his teacup, put down the teacup and said, "It's delicious, it seems that I've drunk it somewhere, but I shouldn't have heard of this name." ”

Nana Hashimoto glanced at Senya with some concern, as if she wanted to say something.

Qianye stopped Nanami Hashimoto with his eyes, lowered his head and said, "Nanasai you came to find Zai Xia with the juniper fan that Zai Xia gave you, is there something wrong?" ”

Hearing Chiya's question, Nanase Nishino grabbed the cypress fan in his hand and replied, "Yes, Chiya-san." After getting this juniper fan, I encountered some strange things, so I wanted to learn from you. ”

After adding another cup of tea to Nanase Nishino, Chiya looked up at Nanase Nishino with serious eyes and asked, "So, what kind of strange thing is it?" ”

Nishino Nanase lowered his head, as if he had made up his mind, and displayed the words "Tamago" on the juniper fan in his hand in front of Qianye, and asked in a low voice: "Senya-san, are these two characters engraved on this cypress fan the Meiji Tamako from the Warring States Period?" ”

Chiya paused for a moment as he picked up the teacup, looked at Nanase Nishino's serious eyes, and finally avoided the question, and instead asked meaningfully, "Yes or no, is it important to you?" ”

Nanase Nishino lowered his head, a little frustrated but plucked up the courage to say, "Because I feel that this cypress fan gives me a very familiar feeling, as if this is my thing." Also, ever since I got this juniper fan, I've often had strange dreams. Although everything in the dream is blurry, I still remember that the dream was a scene from the Warring States period. Saying this, Nanase Nishino raised his head and looked at Chiya seriously, as if he had mustered up a lot of courage, and used all his strength to say the last sentence: "And in my dreams, I always dream of a person who is dressed like you Chiya-san." ”

Hearing Nanase Nishino's words, Nana Hashimoto was almost choked by the tea in her hand, her eyes widened, and she looked at Nanase and Chiya Nishino with inexplicable eyes, not knowing how to speak.

After Qianye raised her hand to signal her to be calm, she said in an inexplicable tone, "Nanasai, do you really want to know?" Even if the truth is brutal. Sometimes, it's really happier to not know than to know. ”

However, Nishino Nanase looked at Chiya with a serious face, and said in a firm tone: "But I have the right to choose, don't I?" ”

Hearing this, Qianye was slightly shocked, and another girl who said the same words seemed to appear in front of her. Looking at Nishino Nanase's serious appearance, it seems to overlap with the girl in Chiya's memory, evoking Chiya's memories.

Chiya, who closed her eyes slightly, seemed to have nostalgia and sadness on her face, but in the end she returned to calm. He opened his eyes, looked at Nanase Nishino seriously, and said, "Are you really determined to know the truth?" Even if it seems like it's going to turn your life upside down? ”

Nanase Nishino nodded firmly: "I want to know." ”

"Well, I'll tell you." Chiya finally compromised.

And Nana Hashimoto looked at Chiya's appearance and shouted with some concern: "Chiya! ”

Chiya looked at Nana Hashimoto's unworried look, gave her a reassuring look, and then pointed to her lips and said "silently", and then swiped in the air, blocking the sound of the tea room.

Nanase Nishino looked at Chiya's movements a little strangely, but the doubts in her heart made her ignore these things and just look at Chiya with serious eyes.

Qianye looked at Nanase Nishino's serious expression, and said in a somewhat nostalgic tone: "Your stubborn appearance is really similar to her." ”

Qianye's words made Nishino Nanase surprised: "Huh? What the? ”

Chiya smiled bitterly and said to Nanase Nishino: "Nanasai you guessed right, the juniper fan in your hand is exactly what that Miss Meiji Tamako used to use in the Warring States period. And there is indeed a deep relationship between you and Yuzi, as you think. ”

Nanase Nishino was very surprised, stretched out his hand to cover his small mouth, and said in surprise: "Eh, how come? So why is Meiji Tamako in the relationship? Am I her offspring? ”

Qianye looked at Nanase Nishino, his face was full of bitterness and was reluctant to speak, and Nana Hashimoto on the side looked at Qianye's appearance, and finally couldn't help but say: "Nanasai, you are the reincarnation of Tamako." ”

Nanase Nishino suddenly looked at Nanami Hashimoto in surprise: "Nana Min, what are you talking about?" How would you know? ”

Nana Hashimoto looked at the surprised Nanase Nishino, and said inexplicably with a look in his eyes: "Nana Sai, you are the incarnation after the reincarnation of Meiji Tamako, she is your past life, and you are her present life." ”

"Huh? Why would Nana Min know about this? Nanase Nishino's mind was completely confused, and she looked at Nanami Hashimoto and didn't know what to say.

Nana Hashimoto didn't set her eyes on Chiya, looked at him seriously and said, "Of course Chiya told me personally." ”

Qianye looked at Nanami Hashimoto's appearance and asked with some surprise, "Nanamin, are you not afraid that our relationship will be known?" ”

Nana Hashimoto glanced at him, and said a little angrily: "You told her the truth like this, do you think you can hide other things?" Besides, our relationship has already been guessed by Mai, and it wouldn't be a big deal if one more Nanasai knew. At most, I choose to be with you after graduation. At the end of the sentence, Nanami Hashimoto's cheeks turned red again.

And Nanase Nishino, who had been completely confused by Nanami Hashimoto's words, did not notice the relationship between Nanami Hashimoto and Senya, but continued to ask: "Nana Min, what are you talking about?" Your relationship with Senya-san? Am I the reincarnation of Meiji Tamako? What the hell is going on? ”

Chiya looked at Nanase Nishino, who was about to cry, smiled helplessly, and said, "Let me explain." ”
