Chapter Twenty-Eight: Let's Discuss Marriage
[Harvest Fame from Flower Pillar Butterfly Chanae 500]
"Ichiro?"
"Why are you here?"
Butterfly Chanae's face was full of surprise and incomprehension, she didn't expect that the two who had just separated would meet again so soon.
Especially on the train, she also specially emphasized that there have been animal attacks on humans in this village, and asked Genichiro not to come here to soak in the hot springs to avoid danger.
As a result, I didn't expect that the other party would be the same as Xiao Ren in the rebellious period, and he came exactly the opposite according to her intentions.
"Like I said, we'll see you again soon, Miss Chana."
Genichiro nodded at her, his tone not very familiar, and even a little indifferent.
Naturally, he rushed here after receiving a report from the chaotic crowd.
According to the investigation of the Ranbo, the people in this village seem to be uniting to hide the whereabouts of those ghost killers from Butterfly Chanae.
Thinking of the previous incident of the water ghost Haruta and the naval hero, this new Shangquan Village is really too suspicious.
But if it's another case of cooperation between humans and ghosts, Genichiro is a little worried that a person like Kanae, who is too kind-hearted, is likely to be planted here because of the sinister nature of underestimating people's hearts.
After all, everyone lives for himself.
At that time, Ping Bai lacks the combat power of a pillar, and with only him and Jiying Zhong, I am afraid it will be difficult to solve the ghosts here, let alone rescue Murata.
After all, it was a full twelve ghost killers who disappeared at the same time.
All in all, Genichiro didn't come here because he cared about the woman he met.
Just like his attitude towards Murata, he is just worried that he will lose the opportunity to take advantage of the other party.
Sure enough, as soon as he started to visit the village with the village chief as an investor, he saw that the butterfly Chanae was actually hit on the finger by a child.
That's the right hand that uses the power of the sword.
If you can't even grasp the sword steadily, how can you kill the ghost?
[What a woman who is kind to the point of weakness. 】
He said in his heart.
On the side, the village chief saw that the two knew each other's names, and his face changed slightly: "Do you know each other?" ”
Obviously, he was a little skeptical that Ichiro and the woman who had "ruined the reputation of the village" would be in a group.
"We came here on the same train."
Ichiro said flatly, and Butterfly Kanae also nodded to the village chief.
Looking at the appearance of the two, they seemed to maintain an obvious sense of distance, and they didn't look like acquaintances, and the village chief's expression improved slightly.
It's a pity that his good face didn't last long.
"However, Village Chief Koizumi, it seems from what happened just now that the children in your village are quite xenophobic."
Ichiro said seemingly unintentionally, "Miss Chanae is a very kind doctor, but I didn't expect to be treated like this in your village, it's really unimaginable." ”
"No wonder there are so few tourists in your village."
As he spoke, he showed an expression of interest.
"Because the elders in the family said that they were very interested in the hot spring industry, I came to have a look. However, it seems that your village is not suitable for accepting investment in terms of business conditions and atmosphere. ”
When Genichiro said this, he was also secretly explaining to Butterfly Chanae why he was here.
"Oh, Mr. Ashina, this is a misunderstanding!"
Seeing that the matter was going to be yellow, the village chief hurriedly explained: "To tell you the truth, a few days ago, some strange people in black uniforms came to the village, spreading rumors everywhere that there was a problem with the hot springs in our village, which scared most of the guests away!" ”
"But before those black-clothed people came, our village was just as lively as the Kurokawa Hot Spring Village over there."
"Presumably, it is precisely because this young lady is dressed the same as those people that this will be targeted by the children."
"However, please rest assured, I assure you that this will never happen again!"
In other words, he was hinting to Ichiro that this woman was in league with those who spread rumors, and she must have ulterior motives.
Butterfly Chanae also endured her temperament and didn't mean to explain.
She had been trying to plead her case all morning, but she was almost beaten out of the village by a group of children.
Hostility has already been established, and there is no need to escalate the conflict, which is also an important rule for dealing with the doctor-patient relationship, and it also applies in this case.
And when Genichiro asked the village chief before, it was obvious that he was defending her.
"Is that so?"
Ichiro touched his chin with a thoughtful look.
"How are the hot springs in your village compared to Kurokawa? I remember that the hot springs on Kurokawa seem to be the third best in Japan, right? On the contrary, you are a new spring, and I only heard about it not long ago. ”
"We're just suffering from being in the middle of nowhere!"
The village chief swore solemnly, "Those who have been here once in the hot springs will never go back to Kurokawa!" Whether it is water temperature or water quality, our new Kamizumi Village is the best in the whole of Kumamoto! ”
"As long as you are willing to invest, our village can hire people to build roads and rearrange buildings to attract customers. Then you will know that there is absolutely no risk in investing in us! ”
"Oh? What do you think, Mr. Shiji? ”
Ichiro pretended to turn around and ask Shiji Sase.
After all, it's up to him, a kid, to make up his mind, and it's too obvious.
Butterfly Chanae also paid attention to this henchman of Genichiro, and the doctor's intuition made her immediately see something unusual in Shiji Sase.
Unlike the clever Shinichi Sase, Shinji Sase is about forty years old, and he is the personal guard of the Ichishin Recuperation Department (one of the three kneeling gray-clothed eagles downstairs in Ichishin), and is considered a high-ranking member of the Eagles, responsible for issuing orders to others about the arrangements that Issein has arranged.
Similar to Ichiro Chord, there is obvious indifference to others in his eyes and expressions, as if he doesn't care about the lives of outsiders.
It is precisely this high-minded attitude and gorgeous clothing that convince the village chief of their identity as an investor.
What's more, there was a (rented) car parked on the side of the road down the mountain, and some people in the village saw that the two of them got off from it.
"Master Ichiro, why don't we experience the hot springs here first."
Of course, Shiji Sase knew that Ichiro needed a chance to talk to Chanae Butterfly right now.
The longer it drags on, the less hope there is for saving people.
They must bypass the villagers and figure out how to find the whereabouts of the Demon Slayer as soon as possible.
"If the hot springs here are really as good as the village chief Koizumi said, we will naturally not let this place be buried."
His two words made the village chief's heart flutter.
"This gentleman is absolutely right!"
The village chief said, "Why don't you stay with us for a few days and find out the situation." Like I said, if you soak in the hot springs in our village, the other hot springs are no different from the stinky puddles! ”
Between the words, he seemed to be genuinely confident in the hot springs in his village.
If Ichiro really came to inspect the investment, he might also be infected by the enthusiasm of the village chief.
"That's fine."
Koichiro nodded, then looked at the butterfly Chana, "Why don't you Miss Chanae, come with us." ”
"After all, it looks like you haven't found your friends yet."
As soon as Chana wanted to nod, the village chief immediately shouted, "Mr. Ashina, the person she was looking for left a few days ago!" ”
What he meant was naturally that he felt that Chanel's unstable factor was likely to destroy the investment, and there was no need to stay.
But the two of them obviously knew each other, so the village chief couldn't say that this woman had bad intentions, so he could only forcibly find a reason not to keep her.
However, you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
"Then Miss Chanae should stay."
Ichiro interrupted without question, "It just so happens that my family has recently wanted to give me Zhang Luo's future marriage, and I don't have a suitable candidate at the moment." ”
"There are no outsiders bothering me at the moment, and I also want to know about Sister Ling's situation."
Of course, Chanae didn't think that Ichiro was telling the truth, but she had 10,000 reasons to stay here and immediately nodded and took the show.
"If you want to talk about Shinobi's marriage, then I can only bother."
The village chief had the intention to stop it, but when it came to marriage, it was obviously already a private matter.
"By the way, since Miss Chanae is here before us, you can choose the hotel."
Ichiro can be sure that in such an urgent situation, Butterfly Chanae will definitely choose the one she thinks is the most suspicious.
Although Chanae couldn't understand why Ichiro would let herself make a choice, it couldn't be better.
"Why don't you just go to that kid's house, his house happens to be the first hotel I visited in the morning, and we seem to have some misunderstandings that need to be resolved."
Years of experience in slaying ghosts have taught Chanae that if there is any tragedy in a place infested by ghosts, it is most likely related to ghosts.
The child named Sansuke before suddenly cried so sadly, something bad must have happened to him.
This may be a good breakthrough.
Besides, that kid is just like Mr. Immortal Chuan, although he has a very rough temper, but his personality is very straightforward (he has no brains), and it is easier to inquire about anything.
After all, the whereabouts of the team members were the first to be revealed.
"Ah, that's Tamako's home."
The village chief hesitated for a moment, "The hot spring assigned to her family is indeed very good, but Yamasuke's personality will probably make you feel unpleasant." And Tamako's husband is also an unreliable guy......"
Obviously, the family's condition was not a sample that the village chief wanted to show to Genichiro.
Especially the woman's hand in front of her was hit by the child.
She's not going to be looking for trouble.
"Why don't you go to my house, and later, I'll ask Yuzi to bring that child and apologize to this young lady."
"It doesn't matter."
Koichiro interrupted, "Since Miss Chanae has already made a decision, let's go over, it's just time for lunch." ”
"But you can rest assured, we will never judge the investment value of the entire village based on the problems of one or two companies."
"On the other hand, if we go to your hotel, the village chief will definitely try his best to show us the best side, so that many problems will be covered up."
The village chief was helpless, and Ichiro spoke one by one, and he couldn't refute it at all, so he had to lead the two people over.
Along the way, Chanahui's eyes have been fixed on Genichiro.
Did this teenager, whom she met by chance on the train, really come to her because she was interested in knives?
It stands to reason that she wouldn't think of a child as complicated.
can see his methods of dealing with the village chief in order to keep her, and he knows that Ichiro is a person with a strong purpose.
In this way, all previous speculations must be overturned.
Soon, several people arrived at the first hot spring inn that Chanami investigated in the morning.
The name of this inn is "Cangshan no Yu", which sounds like a combination of the names of two people, and that mountain should be Yasuke.
"Jade!"
The village chief shouted through the door, "I've brought you a guest." ”
However, it was not the proprietress that Butterfly Chanae met in the morning, but a man who spoke a little intermittently.
"Guest...... Guest? ”
The wooden door was opened, revealing a middle-aged man with a flushed face and a smell of alcohol.
When the village chief saw this person, his brows suddenly furrowed: "Xiongya, how can you drink in broad daylight?" Where is Tamako, tell her to come out and entertain guests! ”
Several people suddenly realized that this Xiongya was probably the "unreliable" mountain suke father mentioned by the village chief.
"Not anyway...... Outsiders, drinking, what's wrong with drinking! ”
Drunkenly talking nonsense, Yuya looked at the few people behind the village chief with a pair of worried eyes, but his gaze stopped on Chanae, and his tone suddenly became rough: "Hey, you woman, didn't you come here in the morning?" ”
"I said you, you were the one who came to my house in the morning to make trouble, and you said that the person was missing......"
Speaking of this, he suddenly slammed the village chief in front of him, pushed the village chief in front of him, and then pounced directly at Chanahui, as if he was going to choke her neck.
"It's all you people who have no guests in my house!"
The village chief was pushed aside, and when he saw that things were going bad, he was very anxious.
And Chanae also pressed the knuckle of her right hand with her left hand, and when she saw that she was about to be touched by the other party, she saw Genichiro suddenly appear in front of her, and then crossed an elbow and directly knocked out the oncoming Yuya.
However, Ichiro didn't stop his movements, and immediately changed his hand to push his palm.
It's a knock punch!
With a bang, the palm of his left hand rippled in the air, pushing the drunken male into the thin snowdrift at the door.
It also happened that at this time, Yamasuke opened the door and happened to see the scene where his father fell.
"Daddy! Father! ”
Ichiro's face was indifferent and unmoved.
He hasn't started this set of knock punches yet, and he doesn't go to Yuya's heart, he just wants to teach the other party a lesson.
However, the butterfly Chanae, who heard the sonic boom, didn't think so.
She brushed past Genichiro like a falling cherry blossom and immediately came to Sansuke's back.
"Don't worry, kid."
"I'm a doctor, let me see your dad's specific situation."
……
Well, the pace is so slow.
