"Xiao Jun, please come in!"

Looking at this villa in the center of Tokyo, Ning Yuan was not too surprised.

After all, no matter how Muto Shio is, he has also reached the middle and upper levels, and he is still the middle and upper class of the navy faction.

You must know that the antagonism between the navy and the army is also a class antagonism, and most of the recruits of the navy are the children of the nobles of the Dongying, while the army is mostly middle- and lower-class civilians.

This is a historical problem that has been formed since the Meiji Restoration, and Muto is also the surname of Toei, which originated from the Gen family, so there is naturally nothing strange about having this strength.

Afterwards, Ning Yuan was not too polite, and directly followed Muto Zhixiong into the courtyard.

After entering the garden, the garden is full of cherry trees, and it is even more coincidental that it is the time when the cherry blossoms are in bloom.

The cherry blossoms fall with the wind, but they also have a little different taste, but unfortunately Ning Yuan didn't feel how beautiful he was when he saw these, he just felt that time was more urgent.

That day, the day that all the people of the country will never forget, is coming.

And just as Ning Yuan was still looking at the courtyard, a crisp voice came from inside the house.

"Father, ...... you come back?"

But the sound suddenly stopped, and Ning Yuan naturally focused his attention on the source of the sound.

I saw a girl in a kimono with some surprise on her face looking here.

The girl's appearance is naturally excellent, but the most attractive thing is her somewhat weak temperament, as if she has never passed the world.

She didn't seem to expect her father to bring others back, and for a while she seemed a little restrained and shy.

Speaking of which, even though the country was opened by country M, the remnants of some things in Dongying still haven't disappeared.

It's just that it seems that Muto Shixiong didn't care too much, but directly pulled Ning Yuan and introduced.

"This is my daughter Junko, who just graduated from the Imperial Women's University this year and studied history."

Then he said to Junko Muto.

"This is Xiao Tu, a well-known economics scholar who is still studying at Kyoto Imperial University, but his attainments in economics can make most Dongying scholars sigh to themselves."

"Of course, the most important thing is that he is from Shenzhou, and he is a rare friend of his father, Junko will wait for you to get some sake, and the guests will naturally have to be entertained."

And when she heard the word "Shenzhou", Junko Muto reversed her restrained appearance at the beginning and looked at Ning Yuan directly, as if she was full of curiosity.

That inquisitive and restrained look, coupled with those big watery eyes, also made Ning Yuan take a second look.

It's just that this kind of look still made Ning Yuan a little "embarrassed", probably sensing Ning Yuan's reaction, Junko Muto also felt a little rude.

hurriedly replied to Muto Shio.

"Yes, father."

Then he hurriedly left, but he still glanced at Ning Yuan when he left.

And the reaction of the two naturally fell on Muto Shixiong's eyes, probably because he was afraid that Ning Yuan would misunderstand something, Muto Shio said after Muto Junko walked for a while.

"Xiao Jun, don't think it's strange, it may be the influence of her childhood or the problem of the major she studied, and she has always been curious about Shenzhou Junzi."

"So the first time I saw the people of Shenzhou, Junzi's reaction was a bit rude, and I ask Xiao Jun to bear with me."

After speaking, Muto Shio also bowed directly.

And listening to Muto Zhixiong's words, Ning Yuan naturally hurriedly said.

"Miss Junko is such a beautiful girl, how could I mind such a thing!"

Muto Shio said again when he heard this.

"It's best if Xiao Jun doesn't mind."

"I think Xiao Jun shouldn't have tasted our authentic Qing bar!"

"This kind of sake has always been a major feature of my Dongying, but unfortunately in recent years, due to the influx of various alcohols from the West, there are very few high-quality sake on the market today."

"And today is still the day when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, just waiting for Xiao Jun to enjoy the flowers while tasting wine, and feel the characteristics of our Dongying."

Ning Yuan also nodded at this, although he was very indifferent to these, Ning Yuan still showed a trace of anticipation, and looked in the direction where Junko Muto left from time to time.

And Ning Yuan's reaction naturally made Muto Zhixiong's smile even more.

On the other side, Junko Muto also returned with a sake jug and cups and saucers, and after setting them up in the pavilion by the courtyard, she gestured to Shio Muto.

Seeing this, Muto Shixiong also said to Ning Yuan.

"Xiao Jun, Junzi's side is ready, let's take a seat!"

Then Muto Shio led Ning Yuan to the pavilion, and Junko Muto on the side was already waiting.

Muto Zhixiong also personally poured a cup for Ning Yuan before sitting down cross-legged again.

The three of them sat cross-legged, the cherry blossoms waving in the courtyard, and the special cups and saucers with sake on the small table really showed the characteristics of Toei to the fullest.

Then Muto Shio raised his glass and said to Ning Yuan.

"Xiao Jun, it's really difficult to know a knowledgeable person from Shenzhou like you, you come to be a guest today, I'll toast you first."

After speaking, Muto Shio drank the wine in his hand directly.

And Ning Yuan naturally didn't look at it dryly, and directly drank his cup of sake, and said with emotion after drinking.

"This sake is fragrant, and it has a lot of similarities with the ancient sake of my homeland."

Listening to Ning Yuan's words, Muto Shixiong smiled lightly and said.

"Xiao Jun won't be homesick! After all, Xiao Jun has also left his homeland for more than half a year. ”

As for this statement, Ning Yuan did not deny it, but replied directly.

"Probably! For their homeland, everyone will always have some nostalgia, but it's a pity ......"

And Ning Yuan's unfinished words, in fact, Muto Zhixiong was not too strange, he deliberately paid attention to Ning Yuan, although he didn't know everything in detail, but he also knew some of Ning Yuan's experiences, so he comforted first.

"Xiao Jundon't be sad, I've heard about you, you are a heart to serve the country, but unfortunately no one can understand."

"You have done so much for Shenzhou, but in the end you were forced to leave your hometown, which even I can't look at."

And when Ning Yuan heard Muto Zhixiong's words, it seemed that he had been told that his heart was on the line, and the helplessness on his face increased a little, and he even poured himself a glass of wine for himself and drank it directly.

Then he sighed and said.

"There are not many people in the world who understand, so what can be done? I just wanted to make Shenzhou have fewer casualties, but so many people didn't understand. ”

"Originally, I wanted to do more for China, but I was still forced to leave my homeland, and now I am like a rat crossing the street in China."

"I don't know if what I'm doing is right or wrong."

"It's just that I didn't expect to meet someone who really understands me in Dongying."

Seeing Ning Yuan's "true feelings" revealed, Muto Zhixiong also said with some empathy.

"The more I think about the future of the country, the more people will misunderstand, Xiao Jun is like this, why am I not like this?"

"Today's Dongying also can't tolerate the voice of reason, and I can only let this country go in a crazy direction."

At this time, Ning Yuan also seemed to be a little "surprised", and there were some changes in his eyes when he looked at Muto Zhixiong.

When Muto Zhixiong saw this, he seemed to have just realized that he had lost his words, and hurriedly said to Ning Yuan.

"Look at me, why are you chatting and talking about this, Xiao Jun is a guest today, and there is no need to upset Xiao Jun about my troubles."

"Come, come, come, let's drink again."

But Ning Yuan shook his head, and then said.

"Muto-kun said this, if Toei could have more people like Mr. Muto, why would the situation between the two countries be at this point now!"

And Muto Zhixiong also nodded a little melancholy, drank another glass of sake, and then said to Ning Yuan.

"Xiao Jun, you and I can't control the current situation, but I believe that one day the situation will change."

"It's just that I don't know if Xiao Jun is willing to help me when the time comes!"

And listening to these words, Ning Yuan knew that the drama was coming.
