Volume III Chapter 3 Prelude to War I

After consulting several apartments, Liu Ling finally chose a six-story apartment on Sanyuan Street to share.

After all, most of Japan's housing buildings are made of lighter materials and cannot withstand the aftermath of the more violent battles.

Although the environment and facilities of the apartments he chose to consult at the beginning were good, and Liu Ling had enough money to buy them, Liu Ling still rejected these apartments because the houses were too "brittle".

After a long day of browsing around various websites for selling and renting houses on the computer, Liu Ling found the only apartment on Sanyuan Street that barely met his requirements on the last page of a small shared housing website.

Through the phone number left on the shared housing website, Liu Ling quickly signed an electronic contract with the property owner.

After Liu Ling happily used the Alipay software on his mobile phone to transfer a 20,000 yen living deposit (equivalent to about 1,200 yuan) to the property owner, the owner of the six-story apartment on Sanyuan Street handed Liu Ling the key to a room on the top floor of the apartment.

Liu Ling, who got the key to the apartment, packed all the luggage left in the hotel into his suitcase and found a taxi at the door of the hotel that had been waiting for a long time.

After telling the taxi driver the address of the apartment on Sanyuan Street in a proficient Japanese, the taxi driver glanced at Liu Ling in the rearview mirror in surprise, and then slowly started the car.

All the way was peaceful.

When the taxi came to a less crowded street on the edge of the city, it slowly stopped.

Liu Ling, who was pulling a black suitcase, got out of the car and looked at the six-story rectangular building that looked quite old with his eyes behind his rimless glasses, and was slightly speechless.

It's no wonder that the owner of the property threw away his keys after getting his 20,000 yen rent, because he was afraid that he would regret it when he saw the appearance of the house.

However, after Liu Ling's observation, although the appearance of this house is old, it is still quite sturdy, which is different from those houses built of earthquake-proof materials.

With the mentality that the money given cannot be wasted, Liu Ling pushed open the door of the apartment and walked up to the sixth floor of the apartment.

The apartment has four rooms on each floor, with a staircase in the middle and two rooms on each side of the staircase.

Liu Ling looked at the room number engraved on his key, which was the same as the second room number on the right side of the stairs, and it seemed that it was this room.

Click, click.

When Liu Ling used the key to open the lock of this room, the next room of this room also happened to open the door from the inside, and a cute little head stuck out from inside.

"Hey, little brother, are you a new tenant?"

The little girl who was about ten years old looked at Liu Ling, who was not a few years older than herself, and asked curiously.

"Well, hello, I'm Liu Ling from China, I'm going to live next door to you from today on, please take care of me in the future."

Showing a shallow smile at the little girl, Liu Ling said fluently in Japanese.

"Ah, you're from China, why do you speak Japanese so well? It's like a local. Ah yes, my name is Tachibana Nomi, and I live next door to you with my parents, so please take care of me in the future. ”

Probably because Liu Ling's smile was too beautiful, even if he wore his eyes, he couldn't cover it all, and when Tachibana Naimei spoke to Liu Ling, her little face was flushed, as if she was killed by that smile in seconds.

After talking with Tachibana Naimi for a while, Tachibana Naimei enthusiastically invited Liu Ling to her home as a guest, and also took out several bags of biscuits known as Xianbei from her home to entertain Liu Ling.

Tachibana's father and mother also warmly entertained Liu Ling, a little boy who came to Japan to study alone.

The three of them were very happy in the conversation with Liu Ling, especially because Liu Ling was rich in knowledge, and he was able to avoid the cold scene one after another when talking to the three of them, so the more the three of them talked, the more enjoyable they became, and when Liu Ling left, they were reluctant to keep him after dinner before leaving.

The warm gesture of this family of three allowed Liu Ling to refresh the level of Japanese hospitality.

It took a lot of effort to get rid of Liu Ling, who was enthusiastically retained by Tachibana Naimei's family, and hurried back to his room, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

This room is about 70 square meters in size, and is divided into four parts, including the kitchen, bedroom, toilet, and balcony with Japanese-style sliding doors.

After Liu Ling took off his shoes at the entrance, he went to his room behind the Japanese-style sliding door and began to take out the clothes and daily necessities in the suitcase one by one and put them in the right place.

After more than ten minutes, Liu Ling sorted out these things in an orderly manner, and when he looked at them from a distance, he was very organized and comfortable.

Lying on the tatami mat for the first time, Liu Lingyi, who felt quite fresh, turned over and pulled his schoolbag, took out the Bingqing Sword that had been placed in it for a day and put it beside him, and then began his cultivation that he had not slackened off that day.

It is still the Galaxy Sword Technique that needs to be continuously accumulated, when Liu Ling absorbs the energy of the high-grade spirit stone with all his might, the Milky Way Source Force in his body also increases little by little, but because of the high degree of purity of the Milky Way Source Force, this increase is not too large, so it gives people the feeling of an old ox pulling a cart.

However, this is also a very normal thing, Liu Ling's cultivation of the Galaxy Sword Technique is not extraordinary, even if it is only the level of the middle stage of condensation, the purity of the galaxy source power generated by cultivating it is not inferior to the late stage of condensation or even the peak of ordinary exercises.

Although the cultivation of the Galaxy Sword Technique is difficult, the combat effectiveness is not comparable to ordinary exercises.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Ling will not change other exercises even if he is slow to cultivate.

Now Liu Ling, who was sitting cross-legged on the tatami mat, slowly closed his eyes, and his mind was completely immersed in cultivation, naturally he didn't know.

In all corners of Japan, the prelude to a war centered on the city of Fuyuki has slowly begun.

————————————————————————————————————————————

It was obviously a hot summer, but the large floor-to-ceiling windows were still full of snowflakes blown by gusts of cold wind.

In this strange cold night, the forest and the earth are slowly frozen.

In the middle of this cold wind, in an old castle built on top of snow, a small room is protected by a warm stove, as if to dispel all the cold outside.

In the middle of this warm little room, a man picked up a little white-haired girl who was already asleep.

It's a body that couldn't be smaller, and when it's held in your hands, you can't even feel the weight it deserves.

The slender one in the man's hand was cautious, as if it was the first snow in his hand, and it would fall apart if he moved a little.

"Kiritsugu, put Elia down, she's already asleep, and you'll be uncomfortable if you hold her like this
