At the dinner table, Natsume Yusheng was reading the newspaper, Natsume Reiko vigorously gave Asai vegetables, and beat several raw eggs, and Naoki Natsume's eyelids jumped when he saw it.

His habit of not liking raw eggs and nattobimbap was gradually awakening, as if he remembered why he had an extremely cautious grudge against this thing.

"Did you tell me last night that you came back not just for vacation, but also for business?" After reading the newspaper, Natsume Yusheng asked.

When eating face-to-face, the family can tell who is talking to whom from the tone and content, and there is no need to call by name.

Even if you have been away from this family for a long time, the family affection that blood is thicker than water will always take away some habits and memories hidden in your veins.

Naoki Natsume looked up at his father and nodded and replied, "Yes, I signed a contract with a company in Hokkaido, which is in Sapporo, more than an hour's drive from here."

"Do you know how to drive?" Natsume Yuu asked.

Naoki Natsume nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, but I forgot how to drive."

In Tokyo, he lives close to the school, so there is no need to buy a car.

I also learned the license during the summer vacation when I graduated from high school, and because of my body, perception and luck, I took a whole year to get this driver's license.

He hasn't touched a car since he learned to get a certificate, and I'm afraid it's really dangerous to let him drive at this time.

Natsume Yusheng and Natsume Reiko glanced at each other, and then looked at Asai with a brush.

Asai was not surprised at all, and said, "Then I'll drive him to work."

"I'm really bothering you, Asai!" Natsume Yusheng's tone was serious.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was stabbed with the elbow by his wife, complaining, "Is it still called Asai?"

Natsume cleared his throat, "That...... In the future, uncle, I will also call you Mao, do you think it's okay?"

"Uncle just get used to it, I don't like it." Asai shook his head and said.

"The key is for you, you may also go out today, you can drive the Santana first." Natsume Yusheng untied the keychain around his waist, counted the car keys and handed them to Asai: "I still have a business car in the factory, so I don't have to worry about my uncle's traffic."

Asai took the set of keys and felt a little heavy.

It's not about the safety of the two, but also the trust and acceptance shown by Naoki's brother's parents.

"I know, I'll definitely keep Brother Naoki safe...... Definitely!" She tightened her grip on the keys.

Natsume Yusheng gave his wife a look, and Reiko understood it, and quickly patted Asai on the shoulder: "Don't have too much pressure, just go out to play and practice...... Naoki, you have to practice in the area where you don't have people, and you don't have a driver's license but you don't know it, you can go on the road, and you can pick those roads where no one has a car to practice."

"I see, Mom."

"And when are you going to work?" Natsume asked, "It's the first time I've worked to gain experience, so I need to pay attention to it."

Originally, I heard that my son was coming back this summer, and Natsume Yusheng planned to take him into his own factory to hone his skills.

Whether the young master enters the factory to inspect or goes deep into the grassroots, it is a little bit to be able to hone a little, and the most important thing is to be able to find and take care of it.

Now that his son has a career and has found a way to go, in addition to being a father, he can only ask for some work habits.

Naoki Natsume drank the soup and replied, "I'm not in a hurry for the time being, I'll report in three or four days." I spent the next few days walking around the neighborhood and ...... I've got a place I want to visit."

After eating, Naoki Natsume looked at the notebook on the table in the bedroom, rubbing the cover.

I haven't finished reading the notes yet, and it's not that I deliberately keep the suspense, but I started somewhere, and I can't understand what is written on it-

The words are still familiar to me, but some of them are really unpredictable.

And where the diary has changed, is a certain travelogue:

[Today is the annual festival ceremony of Teine Shrine.]

The temple shrine that is a tourist attraction is built on the mountain, which is Teinayama behind the village. ]

[I don't know much about that mountain, but I know more about that shrine...... It is said that my mother was a shrine maiden there for a while when she was young, and she was sent from a large shrine in Kyoto, and some of them seemed to go to the countryside to teach. ]

[It is said that the father and mother met at a festival one year, and the young and energetic father fell in love with the beautiful and dashing mother at a glance, and then launched an offensive called love...... The mother soon fell, and then naturally got married, quit her job as a shrine maiden, and became the proprietress of a small clothing workshop. ]

[In previous years, they went there, but this year, I probably saw that I was old, and they actually brought me with them...... Not only the three of us, but also the family of three of the Asai family next door. ]

[By the way, the three of them refer to Uncle Asai, Aunt Asai and the cute little Mao, the big-breasted woman who was not interested in this kind of religious sacrifice and ran to Sapporo with a sketchpad to learn painting from an oil painting master named Yumi Ishiizumi...... Oh, I guess it's also an excuse, and I can't tell if I skip the family activities I don't like and go to which scenic mountain to copy, like something she can do...... That guy has a bad personality and only understands the bad side of Aunt Asai, but he doesn't learn the good side at all. Sure enough, I still prefer Aunt Asai, who is strong and full of vitality, to that hateful big-breasted girl! ]

It was this seemingly problematic travelogue that made the second half of the diary chatter.

Naoki Natsume turned the next page again, and wrote:

[He sees that I'm different, but doesn't know where I'm different.] I don't know how he saw it, but he thought I was born with legends in mythology, such as the reincarnation of Suzuo no Nan...... I'm not interested in Japanese myths and stories, but I'm sure his judgment was wrong. I'm just a guy who gets a second chance. ]

There is no clear statement here that he is a reincarnated person, and Naoki Natsume thought to himself that he was worried that his diary might be lost and someone would peek at it.

Who is this "he" referring to?

After that, it is a very peaceful daily life, and the diary records the happy life with the female apprentice on the Internet, the little Lori and the sister-in-law next door, and the ups and downs of the months.

In the winter at the end of his seventh year, his diary came to an abrupt end-

Several pages were torn off.

But it's not exactly the end.

The torn up diary was only a record of what happened in a certain month, and he guessed so.

I counted the pieces of paper that I tore off, and there were about six or seven of them.

And then the diary that started again was the point when I was eight years old - memory loss!

[It has happened, I hurriedly wrote this diary, I am going to go to Teine Shrine to find him now, maybe some of the things I discussed with him can be fulfilled...... No, it has to be successful! ]

[I don't have to think about it, I know, that old man must say I'm crazy...... Oh, if I succeed and I haven't forgotten everything, I must tell him, how can I know if I don't try? ]

[If...... I mean, if, you, me, see this journal again and you can't remember anything...... Alas, it's pretty miserable to think about. But if that's the case, remember to go to Teine Shrine and find an old man who everyone respectfully calls him a priest, and tell him something like this——]

["I made it."] ]
