Chapter 601: Return to Tokyo
Facing Miss Sato, who had a surprised expression on her face, she didn't continue to speak, but smiled and took out the bamboo tube containing Shikijin on her body, ready to speak with facts.
However, just as Aoba was about to open the bamboo tube, Uesugi Maki on the side was a little hesitant.
"Wait a minute, Brother Aoba, is this really okay? Doesn't it mean that Shikigami can't be seen casually and must be kept secret from ordinary people?" Uesugi Maki said hesitantly.
Listening to Maki Uesugi's words, the light in Miss Sato's eyes instantly dimmed.
"What's the matter, Miss Sato is not an outsider. Aoba smiled and said unconcernedly.
Then Miss Sato's eyes lit up again.
Immediately after that, Aoba opened the bamboo tube, and at the same time knocked on the edge of the bamboo tube, and in an instant, a puff of white smoke rose up, and the golden spirit fox appeared in front of the three people.
"W-Is this Shikigami-sama?" Miss Sato said with a trembling tone as she looked at the spirit fox that was slowly condensing her body with some excitement.
"You don't need to call it an adult, its name is Linghu, and Miss Sato can call it a little Linghu. Uesugi Maki corrected Miss Sato.
At the same time, Uesugi Maki saw that Aoba had released the spirit fox, so he didn't hide it anymore, and simply took out his bamboo tube and released his own Shikami.
"This is my Shikigami, it's called Golden Fox, and Miss Sato is called Little Golden Fox. At the same time as releasing his Shikigami, Maki Uesugi was still introducing to Miss Sato.
And looking at Uesugi Maki's smug appearance at this time, it seemed to be showing off something to Miss Sato, Aoba was amused.
But looking at Aoba and Uesugi Maki's Shikigami, Miss Sato is really envious.
"The little golden fox and the little spirit fox? they're so cute, they don't look like the legendary Shikigami at all. Uesugi Maki seemed to have been healed by the appearance of the two little guys, the golden fox and the spirit fox, but the mood that was still a little apprehensive was completely gone, and he even tried to reach out and want to touch the two little guys.
However, the reactions of the two little ones were different. Among them, the more aggressive Golden Fox immediately flashed his head away from Miss Sato's touch, and at the same time stared at Miss Sato with vigilant eyes.
As for the spirit fox, it was much gentler, facing Miss Sato's outstretched palm, although he hesitated, but in the end, it may have been that Miss Sato had no malicious intent, so he didn't dodge, and just let Miss Sato put her hand on her head.
"Ah, I touched it, I touched it!" Miss Sato didn't care at all about being dodged by the golden fox. Instead, he made a fuss about being able to touch the spirit fox.
"How's it going, how does it feel to the touch?" asked Aoba jokingly.
"Well, it's very comfortable, it's like you're touching a cat, that's good!" replied Miss Sato as she continued to gently stroke the fox head, and sighed with emotion.
"Miss Sato, don't look at it very well-behaved now, if it really gets into a fight, let alone a cat, even a big cat can't beat it. Aoba said with a smile.
"Big cat, what's that?" Miss Sato said curiously.
"The big cat I'm talking about is naturally a tiger. Aoba explained.
"Hey, it's a little spirit fox, can it beat a tiger?" Miss Sato looked at the spirit fox who seemed to have squinted comfortably under her own touch. The tone was full of disbelief.
And Miss Sato's unbelieving tone naturally caused the spirit fox's dissatisfaction, you must know that the spirit fox as a god is not weak. Naturally, it is very simple to understand human speech.
So the dissatisfied Linghu immediately avoided Miss Sato's touch and refused to let her touch it again.
"Haha, look at Miss Sato, you just said it. As for beating the tiger, of course it can, but it's also a Shikigami!" said Aoba with full confidence in his Shikigami.
"Is it really possible?" Miss Sato was still staring at the little spirit fox. The tone was full of doubt.
"Brother Aoba, are you telling the truth? The little golden fox and the little spirit fox can really beat the tiger?" Uesugi Maki on the side was also a little incredulous.
And the golden fox, who is the god of Uesugi Maki, saw that his master actually questioned his ability, and immediately dissatisfied and kept circling Uesugi Maki.
"Of course you can, if you don't believe it, come to Linghu and aim for it!" said Aoba as he pointed to a large stone in the courtyard that was one person tall and said to Linghu.
So the spirit fox who heard the order immediately began to act, and the next moment he saw the spirit fox open its mouth aimed at the stone in the courtyard, accompanied by a white ball of light mixed with golden light flew out of the spirit fox's mouth and bombarded the stone at an extremely fast speed.
Suddenly, the large stone that was one person tall was blown into several stones of different sizes by that cloud of energy with a bang.
Both Uesugi Maki and Miss Sato were all taken aback by this scene, and the two of them no longer dared to salute the power of the two Shikigami.
And when Miss Sato thought of the cute and cute little guy she had just touched, it turned out to be so powerful, and she suddenly felt that she had really picked up a life just now! Otherwise, whether it is a golden fox or a spirit fox, if you are not happy to give yourself such a time, then there will be no bones left.
As for Uesugi Maki, her eyes were shining, this girl who had just obtained the Shikigami had no idea that her Shikigami was so powerful, so she suddenly became interested in the already somewhat sleepy cultivation method she had just seen in the room, and she couldn't wait to continue studying now, and then be able to command her Shikigami to release such an attack as soon as possible like Aoba.
"It's amazing, it turns out that there really is a Shikigami in this world!" Miss Sato said with a somewhat lonely smile on her face as if relieved.
"What's wrong, Miss Sato, are you alright?" Aoba said to Miss Sato with concern.
"I'm fine, it's just that I have a little emotion when I see the Shikigami that I have been fantasizing about since I was a child really appear in front of me!" said Miss Sato with a smile and shook her head.
"Did you feel emotional? Miss Sato thought of something?" said softly with a smile on her face.
"I think of when I was younger! At that time, I also believed in the existence of Shikigami, but as I got older, I didn't believe it anymore, so I want to thank Aoba-kun and Maki-chan, you let me see the real Shikigami, and I can be regarded as fulfilling my childhood regrets!" Miss Sato nodded at Aoba and Maki Uesugi and said with a smile.
So for a while, even Aoba and Uesugi Maki didn't know what to say.
But then Miss Sato said goodbye.
"Alright. Now that you've finished eating, I'll go back to the kitchen and continue to work, and I'll leave first. As for dinner, I'll bring it to you, so you can cheer up with peace of mind!" Miss Sato said with a final nod to the two of them, and finally smiled and encouraged.
"I see, then I'll see Miss Sato in the evening. Aoba nodded in understanding.
"See you in the evening, Miss Sato. Uesugi Maki said the same.
Miss Sato turned around and walked down the corridor to the outside of the courtyard, but she hadn't taken a few steps before she suddenly remembered something and turned her head again.
"That's right. I heard that Aoba-kun and Maki-chan are leaving tomorrow?" Sato-sama asked in confirmation.
"That's right, because there's still something to do. Aoba and Uesugi Maki looked at each other and said with some hesitation.
Because it was not certain whether Miss Sato knew anything about the Land of Trials, Aoba only gave a vague explanation.
According to Yuichiro Uesugi's plan, Aoba and Maki Uesugi were going to go directly to the place of trials next, so they urged the two to go on the road in such a hurry.
However, Aoba and Uesugi Maki both decided that they would go back to Tokyo first, deal with some things, and then decide whether to go to the place of trial.
But no matter what the idea, about the Land of Trials. You still can't just let ordinary people know.
"I see, then I wish Aoba-kun and Maki-chan a smooth journey in advance. Miss Sato nodded, and without asking any more questions, she turned and left.
As for Aoba and Maki Uesugi. After Miss Sato left, she returned to her room and continued to do her own thing, Uesugi Maki was studying those ancient cultivation methods, and Aoba was studying the recommendation letter for a while. Gradually, my interest in recommending sex waned, so I began to take a nap.
In this way, it was soon evening, and Aoba and Uesugi Maki had eaten dinner. Today they went to bed early, because tomorrow they have to get up early to catch the car.
The next day soon came, and after washing up, Aoba and Uesugi Maki, after saying goodbye to Yuichiro Uesugi and Miss Sato, once again got into Uesugi Ginji's car, and Uesugi Ginji pulled the two to the station outside the mountain, which was far away from the village.
"Maki, Aoba, I have something to say to you. Uesugi Ginji, who had been silent and did not speak during the drive, suddenly spoke when he was about to arrive at the station.
"Is there anything wrong with Dad?" Uesugi Maki teased the little golden fox floating beside him, and talked casually to his father.
"What does Uncle Ginji want to say? Aoba smiled and asked gently.
"To be honest, I didn't believe in Shikigami Dad before, but now I have to believe if I don't believe it. When Uesugi Ginji said this, he couldn't help but glance at the golden fox floating next to his daughter, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Hehe, I'll just say that Shikigami exists!" Uesugi Maki said proudly, forgetting the way she told Aoba that Shikigami didn't exist at all.
But what I want to say is that even if Shikigami exists, it doesn't mean that you have to take on the responsibility of reviving the Uesugi family, and the decline of the Uesugi family is not just because of the lack of two Shikigami, this is the general trend of history and the inevitable evolution of society, so you don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best with peace of mind. Uesugi Ginji said to his daughter, Aoba.
"I know, I know, I even told me this, what kind of family glory and the like, I have never put it in my heart, Dad, you should know, right!" Uesugi Maki said with an impatient wave of his hand.
"Don't worry, uncle, we understand. Aoba said with a smile as well.
"It's good that you understand, I just don't want you to let your heart go too high because of the Shikijin you suddenly obtained, which is not a good thing for your life. Uesugi Ginji seemed to be afraid that the two of them would become unscrupulous because they got Shikigami, so he reminded him seriously.
"Don't worry, uncle, Sister Maki and I still know what we can do and what we can't. Aoba smiled and comforted.
"Okay, let's not talk about that! If you want to see the place of trial, then go and see it, if you don't want to go, go back to Tokyo and go on with your life! But don't forget to come back for a few days when you have time. Uesugi Ginji probably also felt that he was thinking too much, so after shaking his head, he didn't say anything about it, but began to tell the two of them to come back and live if they had nothing to do.
"Knowing Dad, I'll be back often! Uesugi Maki said with an interested expression.
In this regard, Uesugi Ginji could only shake his head helplessly and said nothing more.
In this way, at the sound of Uesugi Ginji's advice, the car also came to the location of the station.
It's still the place where Uesugi Ginji picked up the two people before, and Aoba and Uesugi Maki got out of the car with their bags.
No, to be exact, it should be Aoba who got out of the car with two people's bags, because Uesugi Maki's big bags and small bags were carried by Aoba, who let the two of them be a man and a woman, Aoba has no complaints about this.
After sending the two to the station like this, Uesugi Ginji didn't leave as soon as possible, but waited with the two of them.
Even if he knew the time when the car was going to arrive and calculated it in advance, in order not to have any accidents on the way and be late and couldn't catch the car, Uesugi Ginji set off with the two of them in advance, but there were no accidents along the way.
In this way, Uesugi Ginji accompanied the two of them at the station until the Shinkansen entered the station, and watched Aoba and Uesugi Maki carry their bags and get on the train, and then they breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards their car with a little lonely back, and then started the car and passed back.
As for the Shinkansen, it had already started, and it quickly carried Aoba and Uesugi Maki towards Tokyo.
So after two days away from Tokyo, the two set out on their way back to Tokyo again.
The difference is that when they came, they were just strangers who sat together by chance, but when they went back, they had become sisters and brothers. (To be continued.) )
