51. Tokyo
"5,000 yen, thank you."
The driver's voice came from the driver's seat, and Fisher probably didn't know what the price was, so he randomly pulled out the corresponding number from his wallet after coming to this world and slapped it on the driver's palm, and pulled her out of the car with a painful expression on Jasmine's lips beside her, and what he saw when he opened the door in a blink of an eye was the standing sign in front of the building, "Kyoto Station"
Looking at the sign of the train station, Jasmine opened her mouth, turned her head to look at Fisher, who opened the map and rummaged for directions at will, and after hesitation, she couldn't help but ask,
"Mr. Fisher, are we really going to travel now, or at this time of school?"
"Ahh
Actually, it's good to go anywhere, but Fisher feels that he can't stay here anymore no matter what, and he will stay in the same city as Helaire, who is estimated to be ready.
So, Fisher nodded, and put the map in front of her, he didn't know the geography of this other world, so he planned to let Jasmine decide the direction of going,
"Jasmine, is there any place you'd like to go?"
"Hey, me?"
Jasmine hesitantly took the map handed over by Fisher, and instead of picking a place, she looked at Fisher and asked again,
"Mr. Fisher, we really want it now"
"Alright, let's pick it, Jasmine. It's okay to go anywhere, just the two of us, okay? ”
Fisher let out a sigh of relief, and raised her fingers to lift the map she was holding a little higher, bringing her attention back to it.
Although she still has some worries about leaving school to travel now, whether it is her studies or Ms. Fisher's work, it is very important; But since Mr. Fisher said so, Jasmine still obediently followed Fisher's train of thought and chose downward.
She stretched out her slender fingers, first landing on the "Kyoto" where they were at the moment, and then heading east, crossing the cities along the way, so that the places she skimmed along seemed to light up one after another in her memory.
And before her fingers sank into the ocean, her hand ended up in the deepest part of her memory.
She opened her mouth, and then said to Fisher with a slight movement in her eyes,
"Mr. Fisher, let's go here."
Jasmine's tone was also up and down, and Fisher couldn't help but move closer to her, following the outline of her finger to the map, and at the end of her finger, the name of the city finally appeared.
"Tokyo?"
"Hmm!" Jasmine pursed her lips and nodded, then said, "I heard that Tokyo is very big, very prosperous, there are many people, and the people there are very rich and have a lot of good food. In the past, there were a lot of rich people from Tokyo who came to Kyoto to play, and they made very generous moves, and I heard from them that even the United States on the other side of the ocean was about to be bought."
"Hmm"
Fisher touched his chin, his distant memories flashing back, reminding him that in the past, Asuka Karasawa seemed to have mentioned the name of the place, where she once lived.
He does have some intentions, one is curious about the place where Asuka has lived, and the other is that maybe Asuka's memories conflict with the fictional scene in the dream now, maybe going to that place can ease the degree of deepening of the dream?
In short, after thinking about it, Fisher finally nodded, tilted his head and looked in the direction of the train station and said,
"Okay, then I'll go buy a ticket."
"Okay. By the way, we were in such a hurry that we didn't have time to ask my mother for money, and I heard that the cost of Tokyo is very high, and we have to call them later. I see, I think I've got some on me."
As she said this, Jasmine took out a cute bear purse from under the compartment under her coat, but the crisp sound of coins colliding with each other still showed that she was really shy.
Fisher's teacher had a lot of money in his wallet, and he took it all out, probably a hundred thousand yen, but he couldn't tell the specific purchasing power, and he had been eating and living in the temple for the past few weeks, and there were only a handful of places to spend money, so he had to ask Jasmine,
"These, is that enough?"
"If it's just for tourism, there should be no problem, Mr. Fisher."
"That's enough, I'll buy a ticket."
"Uh-huh."
While Fisher took Jasmine to the ticket office to buy train tickets, and after buying the tickets for the train at 9 o'clock in the morning, Fisher's spirit in the waiting room was still not relaxed.
He was really worried about coming out of nowhere that few weeks of not seeing a big Herel all at once, so he would rather follow Jasmine nervously at any time than let his guard down and lose all the games.
Compared to Fisher's preoccupation, Jasmine, who knew nothing, seemed very relaxed, and basically except for the little anxiety on her face when she was about to go to the public phone to report to Xuanshen Hook Kiss, she was completely in a travel mode.
And the response of the hook kiss seemed to be more enlightened than Fisher had imagined, and he actually agreed.
“.”
"Mm-hmm, Mr. Fisher and I are at the train station right now."
"What about the ticket, what time is the ticket?"
"Nine o'clock. 9:25 a.m. ”
"How many days are you going to come back?"
Jasmine, who was holding the phone, turned her head to look at Fisher, who was holding two bottles of strawberry milk beside her, and silently asked Fisher's opinion.
Fisher blinked and held out five fingers, and Jasmine nodded knowingly,
"Five days, we'll be back in five days."
"Okay. I'll ask your dad to put some money into the card later, we still have Mr. Fisher's account, it should be enough for you for five days. ”
"Okay, thank you Mom!"
"Also," Fisher's voice on the phone, which was clear to Fisher, suddenly changed her words, and she said as if warning, "You must pay attention to contraception, you know?" ”
"Mom!!"
".toot-too-toot"
Jasmine blushed and buckled the phone, and while the female voice on the phone was announcing "service completed", Jasmine quietly glanced at Fisher in front of her, as if to make sure that he had heard what Xuan Shen had just said.
But Fisher just handed the strawberry milk to Jasmine with a normal face, and said with a smile,
"It's almost two hours in the car, and I'm going to get on the bus soon."
"Uh-huh!"
Jasmine held the strawberry milk, looked at the crowd of people around her with bright eyes, and followed the broadcast information to check in and board the bus.
"Hello passengers, welcome to the Tokaido Shinkansen. This train is the "Memory" bound for Tokyo Station. The stops are Kyoto, Nagoya, Shin-Yokohama and Shinagawa. This train is non-smoking, so please go to the smoking room at the rear to smoke."
Inside the trunk, Jasmine looked up and down the aisle and the seat they were about to sit in, and then, as if she had suddenly found something, she picked up a pamphlet on the seat, turned back to Fisher and said with a smile,
"Mr. Fisher, look at this!"
Fisher asked her to sit down closer to the window as he looked at the pamphlet full of Japanese in her hand.
"What is this?"
"Well, it seems to be a guide to travel to Tokyo left by the previous guests, you see, there are Tokyo Towers, Sensoji Temple or something."
Fisher didn't know any of them, so he had to look down at the color images left by some kind of photocopying technology.
"Speaking of travel. Mr. Fisher, let's now think about our travel plans! ”
"Plan, is that necessary?"
"Of course," Jasmine puffed out her cheeks and raised a finger, "a trip planned in advance will be more experiential, and you can anticipate any problems you may encounter." But it doesn't have to be a hassle, I just want to have a plan ahead for this trip."
As she spoke, Jasmine took a pencil from the pocket of her coat and traced it on the travel brochure with a smile.
"Today is March 26th. We're going to go for five days, and today we're going to enter the city, and after looking for a hotel or something, we can go to Tokyo Tower to have a look, March 26th, and Mr. Fisher will go to Tokyo Tower tomorrow? Mr. Fisher, take a look and what you are going to do tomorrow."
As Jasmine drew a pencil around the picture of the red Tokyo Tower in the travel brochure, Fisher lifted his chin as well, except that Jasmine was looking down at the landscape in the brochure and Fisher was looking at her.
"Jasmine, do you really want to go to Tokyo?"
"Huh? I can't say that I would like to say that I have never had the opportunity to visit many places in Tokyo before, so if I have the chance."
Jasmine was stunned as she spoke, not understanding why she suddenly said this.
She's never been to Tokyo once, right?
Why do you have the illusion that you've been there?
However, the mood of remembering that she was going to those places was not bad, and even if she didn't remember being there before, she was happy to see it this time.
Jasmine shook her head and stopped thinking, and Fisher noticed her momentary pause.
At this moment, the bullet train was about to depart, but the wind outside the window was very quiet, and a trace of trance on Jasmine's face was stopped.
Fisher didn't say much, but reached out and squeezed her hand that was still on the pamphlet, and whispered,
"Plans can't keep up with changes, and since the opportunity is rare, you can go if you want to see anything at that time. If you plan for a five-day limit, you might have to make trade-offs for certain things, you say? ”
"It's the same, hehe."
Jasmine smirked and touched the back of her head, although she put down the pencil in her hand to make a plan, but a new confusion appeared on her face,
"So what should I do while I'm in the car?"
Fisher reached out and rubbed the corners of her eyes, sighed and said,
"Recharge?"
Jasmine was rubbed a little sleepy, think about it carefully, it's still morning, and she will be so sleepy that she can't open her eyes when she is in math class at this time, why is she so excited as soon as she leaves school and class?
Is math really a natural sleep aid?
However, through Fisher's reminder, Jasmine really found a little sleepiness, so she nodded, squinted her eyes and leaned comfortably on Fisher's shoulder, clenching her pink fist and muttering to herself,
"Well, yes, it's not easy to go out to travel, you have to take care of your spirits, you won't be tired by then, and you can go to more places."
Fisher couldn't help but laugh, and while Jasmine was resting, he turned his head to look at the front and back of the hallway, and double-checked for the bad feeling of being followed by Helaire.
But the carriage was very quiet and comfortable, only the clear morning light and the sound of the train moving fast were companions, and over time, he also became a little sleepy, and couldn't help but look back at Jasmine, who was sleeping comfortably.
At this moment she closed her eyes, and a strand of black hair fell on her lips, making Fisher want to reach out and brush it down, but she lifted it into the air and stopped, and could not bear to disturb her sleep at the moment, so she also closed her eyes and gently leaned on the top of her head, as if they were leaning on each other.
"Click"
The wheels of the train rolled, and it was getting farther and farther away from Tokyo.
Beside them, images circulated on the half-transparent closed window, falling in the opposite direction of the morning light, reflecting the people snuggling up to each other in the seats.
It was only because Jasmine was leaning against the window that the figure in the window could only reveal her clarity, while Fisher, who she relied on, was a little blurry.
If you look closely, there is something between the image of the girl leaning on Fisher on the car window and Jasmine. Different?
The morning sun is already crooked, so that the reflection on the car window is slightly behind the jasmine, and if you still stay in the past, you can look at the shadow of jasmine in the distance.
It's just that the shadow maintains the same posture as Jasmine, sleeps like mud, and snuggles up with Fisher and doesn't want to wake up.
Look closely, the sleeping face with closed eyes between the black hair in the mirror of the car window is the lonely soul that crossed over 10,000 years ago.
Asuka Karazawa.
"Click"
The passenger on the other side of the front who was leaning on the sunlight suddenly felt that the sun was dazzling, so he raised his hand and pulled down the curtain hanging from the window on that side, blocking the sunlight from outside.
The sunlight in the carriage intermittently, silently, also made the jagged shadows with Jasmine on the window disappear, which seemed to disappear completely, and seemed to coincide with Jasmine who was asleep at the moment.
"Woo woo, that's probably it, Teacher Herel taught me, if I give up like this, I will definitely not be able to sleep when I go back at night! And it's not just that I can't sleep today, I can't sleep every day! ”
In the teacher's office, Heller, who was holding a cup of coffee, looked helplessly at the head covered by his hands in front of him and looked like he had a headache, but the expression on his face was about to cry without tears, only Renee, who was full of despair, didn't know what to say for a while
Who told Renee to experience all the weeks of patience and the pleasure of "having to eat" when she saw herself, as if a dam had opened a flood outlet?
"Ahh They just walked away and you said Mr. Fisher and Jasmine would not do some secretly. Such and such a thing? I. No, the thought of that makes me crush my teeth."
"Hmm"
Heller pouted, holding his chin in his hand, and said in distress,
"Well, in that case, do you want me to continue to help you?"
"At least, at least let me get a deeper taste of Mr. Fisher?"
Renee's angry expression froze when she heard Helaire's words, and then she quickly nodded and said sincerely,
"Yes."
Listening to Renee's cute afterthought, Hellaire's head seemed to hurt even more, and her movements of holding her chin with one hand became more and more casual, until she was about to fall half of her face into her palm, and her beautiful face was slightly crooked,
"This kind of thing is just a loser among losers, like picking up a poor puppy that someone else eats."
"There's no way around it! Mr. Fisher left with Jasmine in front of me! ”
"Then I'll draw a path for you, shall I go?"
"What's the way?"
"Catch up with me and get Fisher back. How's that, going? ”
Renee opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, but still clenched her teeth and nodded,
"Go! But. How do we know where he and Jasmine went? Why don't you go to Jasmine's mom and dad and ask? ”
Hellaire smiled slightly, stood up, picked up the paper bag on the ground on the side, shook his head and said,
"No, I don't. I always know where he is, just as he knows where I am and whether he has caught up with him."
Renee didn't seem to understand, but she could probably understand what Hellel meant, she clenched her fists and stood up indignantly,
"Then we'll go now. Where to go? ”
Hellaire reached out and patted her on the head, and said dotingly,
"Go to Tokyo, silly boy." (End of chapter)
