Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 280 Kagoshima Night
Leaving Arimura Kaigan, on the way back to Sakurajima Port, the bus stopped for a while in front of a stop sign.

There is an observatory on one side facing the sea, and on the other side is a fairly wide canal.

Sitting by the window, Soya watched casually. Akane Kirino in the back seat came up to him and told him that this is not a drain, but is used to guide the flow of magma.

"Although the magma will not be so 'obedient', but it can guide a part..."

Soya nodded, and his eyes fell on a simple white building near the stop sign.

Those are shelters, and they can be seen everywhere on Sakurajima.

Although the volcanic eruption is magnificent, it will be a disaster if it falls in the city where human beings live.In times of crisis, you can temporarily avoid the magma falling from the sky inside.

"It's still a natural disaster."

Soon, the bus restarted and took them back to Sakurajima Port after another two stops.

After getting out of the car, the port is in front, and the Tsukiyomi Shrine is on the small road behind.

Soya and Kyoko led Tsukiyomi over, Kirino Akane and Hongko followed, and Asagiri Rin looked at the torii gate and the stone lanterns on both sides of the approach with a long-lost look.

Passing through the mottled torii gates made of cement, and walking into the shrine, Tsukuyomi looked around and was satisfied with the scale.

As the largest shrine on the island and directly facing the port, the popularity here is not bad.

He just sensed the power of faith attached to the statue, but he was a little surprised.

"The power of faith is not so much... Didn't it mean that this place has a history of more than 300 years?"

Soya was also taken aback, and then said that maybe it was because it was inconvenient to go to the island before, and the number of worshipers was difficult to compare with now.

"Ok."

Tsukiyomi placed a prayer posture in front of the main hall and began to absorb the power of faith. Soya and the others walked around the shrine while waiting.

For some reason, there are many wild cats on the island, and they are not afraid of people.In Lava Nagisa Park, Soya even saw a wild cat snatching a tourist's lunch box.

A few stray cats also ran into the shrine, wandering around crowded places.

"There's another path here."

When Soya and Kyoko squatted together to pet a white cat, Akane Kirino found a path behind the shrine, and after walking it, she found that it was connected to the product hall on the island.

I just didn't go shopping.

In addition to products related to volcanoes, Sakurajima's most famous specialty is tsubaki oil, also known as camellia seed oil.It is said that in the early Heian period, camellia oil was also used to make an elixir of life, and is now mostly used in hair care and skin care.

The shopping guide lady rubbed some toon oil on the backs of Hongzi and Kirino Akane's hands, and they obediently paid for it, making Soya, who was watching from the side, feel that it was more like a hypnotic potion.

"It's really effective." Kirino Qian stretched out the back of Bai Nen's hand in front of him, "And it smells pretty good, you can smell it."

"Yes Yes……"

In addition, there are tens of kilograms of Sakurajima daikon radishes and small and delicate Sakurajima tangerines in the product hall. These are unique products grown from volcanic ash.

Sliced ​​sweet potatoes in a cup, 330 yen a piece, taste and texture are also very good.

After visiting the product hall, and then walking back to the shrine along the path, Tsukiyomi stood with his arms folded in front of the shelf selling omamori in his own name, heartbroken for not being able to get a share of it.

He has absorbed the power of faith.

"How is it?" Soya asked.

"It's okay, the range that can be sensed is larger."

He nodded. In this way, their trip to Kyushu was considered complete.

"Let's go to the pier."

When leaving the shrine, Soya saw the words engraved on the back of the torii stone pillar, and then he understood why the power of faith here is not as much as imagined.

"Buried by lava during the Taisho Eruption, it was rebuilt here in Showa 15..."

It was not too early to leave Sakurajima by ferry and return to downtown Kagoshima.

Soya and the others went to the hotel to check in first.

There is a desk calendar at the front desk of the hotel, with the words "Sakurajima Outbreak Information" written on it.There are three cards that can be flipped next to it, showing the number of eruptions of Sakurajima Volcano this year.

"Is this updated in real time?" Akane Kirino asked.

The staff member nodded, "Yes."

"It's not August yet, has it erupted more than 500 times this year...it's really active."

"Yes, there were only more than 460 eruptions last year."

She sighed, and Soya handed her a room card.

The group opened three rooms, and it was a combination of Kirino Akane and Akiko, Kyoko and Asagiri, Soya and Tsukiyomi sharing one room.

"No one will help deliver the luggage this time." Leaving the front desk, Akane Kirino said quietly.

"Upgrade to the top suite, maybe there will be one."

"I'm out of money..."

"Then carry your own luggage."

The three rooms are separate, but all on the same floor.

drop--

Soya opened the door, Kirino Akane and Hongzi looked at his room respectively, and then dragged their luggage and continued to move forward.

The hotels here are actually not cheap. The rooms are large in size, with luxurious carpets on the floor and equipped with refrigerators. You can see Sakurajima and the bay from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Putting down his luggage, Tsukiyomi lay on the bed and watched TV, Soya stood by the window and looked at the street scene below for a while, when Akane Kirino knocked on the door again.

Open the door, and the rest of the people are behind her.

"Go get something to eat."

"it is good."

There is a hometown of Yatai Village near the central station, which is a Kagoshima special food street composed of 25 yatai stalls.

It's only a 5-minute walk from the hotel, and the sun hasn't completely set yet, so there are crowds of people in Yatai Village, more casually dressed Kagoshima locals, full of fireworks.

There is a guide map at the door, introducing the special dishes of each yatai. Soya looked at it for a while and picked two restaurants.

"How about going to this restaurant to try the shabu-shabu of black pork and black hair Wagyu, and then go to this restaurant to try the signature blue-ribbon herring sashimi?"

"Soya is really a carnivore."

Akane Kirino wanted to eat sushi from another restaurant, so the two parties temporarily separated, Soya, Kyoko, and Asagiri together, Hongko and Tsukiyomi followed Akane Kirino, and each walked to a different restaurant.

Facts have proved that splitting up is the right choice, because there are only seven or eight seats in a restaurant, and there are already many customers sitting at this time.

The so-called yatai is actually a snack bar on the side of the road.

The simplest type is a cart with a shed, with wheels on the bottom and pavement on the top. It provides some snacks such as oden, fried noodles or barbecue. There are only three or four seats for customers, and the owner can push the cart when he arrives. go home.

In contrast, the snack bars in Wutai Village have at least fixed stalls, but the shop floor is not too large. Basically, the bar inside the shop provides a few seats, and a table for four is added outside.

Yatai Village opened at six o'clock, and the shop that Soya had his eyes on first was already full of people, but the tables outside were still empty.

Two girls occupied the seats, Sogu went in to order, first ordered a platter of two types of meat, and then both ordered one.

When the owner asked him if he wanted shochu or sake, he said he was still a high school student.

"Then sake?"

"No... I mean no alcohol."

The folk customs of Satsuma in Kyushu are tough, which can be seen.

Fortunately, there is also sparkling water to choose from.

After ordering, Soya went back outside and sat down next to Asagiri.

Kyoko pointed behind him, Soya turned his head, looked across the narrow aisle, Akane Kirino was waving at him from the other corner, next to Hongko and Tsukiyomi.

He also raised his hand in response.

People kept walking by, Kyoko rested her chin and looked at the bustling Yatai Village.

There was a small electric fan on the table, shaking her head from side to side, sometimes blowing her long hair, and sometimes blowing the folds of Chao Wuling's sleeveless top.

"The number of people is still increasing."

"It's night."

Not long after, the gas stove and the frying pan with a few slices of vegetables were brought to the table first, followed by a pork and beef platter.

The sauces and seasonings are all in the store, and customers need to choose by themselves.

Holding the seasoning dish, Soya first made a portion himself, and then prepared it for Kyoko and Asagiri according to their respective tastes.

"Thank you."

Sitting down again, there was steam under the light, the hot spring water in the pot had boiled, and the cabbage leaves were pushed to the edge by the gurgling soup.

"Go on."

"Ah."

He raised the water-stained glass to Kiririn.

"cheers--"

Putting down the cold sparkling water, Zonggu picked up another piece of snowflake beef, put it in the pot and soaked it for about ten seconds, and it was almost cooked;
Then dip it in the sauce and put it in the mouth. The freshly cooked beef is extremely tender, and the taste mixed with the sauce melts in the mouth, which is extremely delicious.

"awesome……"

　Halfway through this chapter, I suddenly felt dizzy, plus I had some auditory hallucinations these days, and thought I was going to die.

　　I went to bed and lay down for two hours, thinking whether to ask for leave or write an obituary for myself.

　　After dinner, I feel refreshed again.

　　It can't be because I only ate a bowl of rice at noon, right?
