Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 159 Willing to go alone

After nightfall, Soya and Kyoko came to the underground shopping mall near the station again, and it was indeed much more lively than when they came here in the morning.

Crowded, large and small shops and food stalls are lined up on both sides of the underground street, and the colorful signboards are bright and eye-catching, making it dizzying for the eyes.

Standing near the entrance, the wafting aroma has a full sense of layering. It seems to be a mixture of all the delicacies of the underground street, and it is easy to distinguish the specific content.

For example, the small stall in front of you is exuding the aroma of barbecue.

Soya came closer, and Kyoko followed, his eyes swept over the menu hanging above.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of internal organs. Chicken, beef, pork belly and bacon are strung together with bamboo sticks. The variety is rich, and there is a seafood stall next to it.

"Two skewers of Wagyu beef, two skewers of pork belly... Well, I want this kind of skewer with green onions."

"Okay, the total is 160 yen."

As soon as Kyoko took out her wallet, Soya had already paid all the money, so she counted half of the money to him.

Zongya did not refuse, accepted the money and said, "I will treat you later."

She looked at him and nodded slightly.

"Thank you."

The barbecue still needs to wait for a while, Soya turned his head and looked around, his eyes fell on the fried noodle stall not far away, and then moved away with a little regret.

No...

Although the sauce looks very tempting when it comes out of the pan, and there are many side dishes that can be added, but the fried noodles take up too much space in the stomach.

The night has just begun, and he still wants to try several more delicacies.

When he turned around, Kyoko was looking at him.

"I'll go buy it."

"Do not……"

Soya told her about his embarrassment.

Jingzi thought for a while, "Then ask for half."

"is it okay?"

"I'll ask."

He continued to wait for the skewers here, and Kyoko went over to ask, and after getting a yes answer, he ordered half a portion of fried noodles.

"If you want to add any side dishes, just take a look."

Jingzi couldn't do it loudly in front of so many people coming and going, so she ran back to ask him again.

"A side dish?"

Zongya glanced at it from a distance, and there were more than a dozen iron bowls with side dishes around the iron plate of the fried noodle stall, and the range of choices was really quite large.

"Just follow Kyoko's favorite taste."

She said "okay" and walked away.

After waiting for too long, the grilled Wagyu beef and pork belly with green onions were handed over to Zongya.

He took the skewers to find Jingzi, and when he came to the chow mein stand, he realized that the so-called half chow mein was more substantial than he expected.

"Still too much?"

The owner of the chow mein stall waved his shovel, took the time to look up at him, and then at Kyoko next to him.

"Brother, eat a little, Miss Girlfriend, eat a little, it's almost done."

"..."

Seeing that Kyoko was silent, Soya didn't say anything.

A few foldable tables were set up next to the fried noodle stand, and two people occupied one of them, sitting on plastic chairs, and the half portion of fried noodles in a cardboard box was delivered quickly.

After sharing the grilled skewers first, Soya and Kyoko each ate a few mouthfuls of fried noodles before bottoming out, which really wasn't too much.

Putting the last bite of fried noodles into her mouth, Jingzi sticks out her tongue and licks the corner of her lips. The slightly salty and slightly spicy special sauce is endless aftertaste;

Raising his gaze again, Sogu, who was sitting opposite him, was waiting for her with his chin in his hand, but his gaze had already drifted to the next target booth.

"..."

When he came back to his senses, she stretched out her arms, pinching a freshly drawn tissue in her hand.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Jingzi stretched forward a little more, and wiped off the little sauce on the corner of his mouth.

"Let's go."

Throwing away the tissues, she picked up her umbrella and schoolbag, got up and walked quickly.

"Kyoko, I can't keep up."

"..."

Only then did she slow down, still feeling her cheeks burning hot.

Soya followed her from behind, staring at her face all the time, and looked forward again when they were shoulder to shoulder.

"There is actually a shop that makes taiyaki here, buy a piece and try it."

"Um……"

Stopping and stopping, the two ate and shopped in the underground street. It took more than an hour to complete a full circle and return to the entrance.

When we came to the ground, the dark streets were windy and rainy, and it was much cooler than the ground below.

After standing at the exit of the shopping mall for a while, Jingzi took the initiative to ask, "Go back?"

Soya looked at her, "Where are you going?"

"go home."

He opened his umbrella and stepped onto the wet ground.

"Let's go."

Kyoko followed behind.

When she was about to arrive at the station, she suddenly asked, "If I don't plan to go back, what is Soya-san going to do?"

He stopped and waited for her, "Kyoko won't make things difficult for me."

"..."

She glanced at him and followed.

After checking the ticket and entering the station, the two got on the tram of the Biwako Line, and there were still a few minutes before the departure.

There were only the two of them in this carriage.

Through the car window, Soya looked at the opposite platform, it was empty and there was no one in sight.

With a slight retraction of his gaze, he landed on the reflection of the car window and met Kyoko's gaze.

"..."

When he smiled, she laughed with him, and then she had to look away from him.

After calming down for a while, she said:

"Soya-san, thank you for being with me today."

"Did you say that just as soon as you got in the car?"

"Well, thank you."

"you are welcome."

Soya turned to look at her, "Has Kyoko already considered how to face Mr. Sugawara?"

"As always," Kyoko said, "I will not change my plan."

"I don't think it's necessary to be so radical..."

He paused, and suddenly thought of a question, "What does Yuzi think about this?"

Jingzi pursed her lips and smiled helplessly.

"Okja said she would listen to the 'winner' between me and my father."

"This brat...is really smart."

She nodded and said, "Yuzi is actually more inclined to father's idea."

"That's because she doesn't want to take on such an important responsibility."

"Um……"

Jingzi couldn't help but sighed, "She's just a primary school student."

"But Kyoko was already thinking about saving the world when she was a primary school student."

"I can't force Okja to think the same way. One day, she will find what she wants to do."

"In that case..." Zongya looked at her, "Isn't Kyoko just going her own way now?"

She turned to look at him without saying a word.

It took him a while to react, and he smiled helplessly.

"Of course I won't reject Kyoko... The question is, what can I do for Kyoko in this matter?"

Kyoko looked at him, "As long as Soya-san is more serious about hunting God, I will have the confidence to continue."

"..."

Dare to love, she still intends to go her own way.

"Of course, I will be serious... It is my business to find the Eight Thunder Gods and restore Huangquan to its original state."

Soya was talking to her, and at the same time, he was telling himself who had become a little slack recently.

"Also, I've been too gentle and casual towards Tsukiyomi-sama lately..."

It's time to urge Lord Shenming to shift his focus back to finding the trail of the Eight Thunder Gods.

Kyoko nodded again and again.

Jingle Bell--

After waiting for a while, after a rapid bell rang, the doors of several carriages were all closed, and the tram started slowly.

Soya turned his head and leaned close to the car window again, so as to see clearly outside the dim car.

thump.

There was a soft sound from the side.

He looked over, and Kyoko also pressed her forehead against the car window and looked outside.

"Going back."

"Ah."

"Going back..."

He took her hand.
