Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 301 Typhoon ([-])

The wind and rain never ceased, and the sliding door in the hallway shook back and forth and rattled.

Putting on her raincoat, Keiko Kirino tidied up a bit, nodded to her waiting husband, and looked at her daughter again.

"We're going back."

"Yeah, be careful on the road."

"If there is a power outage, go to bed early."

"I know."

When the Kirino couple walked into the rain, their figures merged with the darkness outside. They could only see a bright light from the flashlight and countless rain streaks in the beam of light.

It was not until the light was no longer visible that Akane Kirino closed the door and turned back to the living room.

After the candle-holding night talk, the other three were cleaning the candles on the table, scraping off the melted wax left on the table with their fingernails or bank cards.

"Let's clean it up tomorrow, anyway, it's not glue or something, it can be easily removed."

"Being idle is also idle, or do you really intend to go to sleep now?" By the light of the desk lamp, Sogu scraped off a small piece of melted wax, touched the mobile phone by the table with his arm, and pushed it towards her again, "Put the phone away."

"Hey, this is not my phone."

Kirino Akane took out her mobile phone, with several kinds of pendants on it, "Look, mine is here. It should be my mother's mobile phone."

"Then tell her, so you won't have to look around."

"Uh-huh."

Soya lowered his head again, and continued to scratch the spots on the desktop with the black card that was paid for wages, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Keiko Kirino's cell phone lighting up.

buzz-

【Call: Qian】

"..."

As soon as the bell rang, the phone was hung up, Kirino Qian didn't look at anyone, pretended nothing happened, and was about to call Dad again.

"They just went out for a while, and they probably haven't arrived home yet. It's not convenient to answer the phone in a raincoat. Send a message or contact me later." Sogu reminded.

Akane Kirino thought for a while, "Then I'll send it back directly. Without a mobile phone, mom will be bored at night."

"It's pitch dark outside and it's raining so hard."

"It's not a big problem."

"Let me go." The night was as dark as ink, and the wind and rain were like madness, Zong Gu was still worried that she would go out alone.

She froze for a moment, then nodded quickly, "Okay."

But just as he left the living room with his mobile phone, Akane Kirino followed, "I don't feel at ease when Soya goes out alone. I'll go with you."

"..."

In the end who is worried about who.

Zonggu didn't bother to talk to her, put on his raincoat and waited at the door.

There was only one raincoat left, and Akane Kirino shook it twice before putting it on, stepped into the rain boots, and said to Hongzi who followed, "We will be back soon."

"Ok."

Hongzi looked at the two of them, pointed his phone at the door, and didn't force himself to follow with an umbrella.

"I'm going out~"

As soon as Akane Kirino walked into the rain after closing the sliding door, she heard a pattering sound filling her ears.

The raindrops kept beating, and her bangs were soon drenched by the rain. She pulled her hat forward, slightly adjusted to the darkness in front of her, and found that Soya seemed to be looking at her.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

The surroundings were almost completely dark, with only a faint light reflected by the clouds, so that she could barely distinguish where was the road, where was the wall or the bushes.

Walking out of the yard, the blind street lamps and even the lampposts could not be found, and the front and back were still dim.

"Songya..."

The fuzzy black figure in front stopped, "Yeah."

Akane Kirino walked up to him in three steps at a time, poking her hand in the darkness, first touching the cold and wet raincoat, and then his arm.

"Can Soya see it?"

"Can barely see the road."

"Me too." Clutching her cold arm, she moved her hand down until she held the warm hand, "Lead the way well."

Zongya only struggled a little, but couldn't shake her off in such darkness, "Can't you stay at home honestly?"

"Can't~"

He sighed.

"cannot--"

"I heard."

"Then go ahead."

The two continued to walk forward.

Leaving the alley where Kirino's old house was located, Akane Kirino kept walking and looked around, only seeing a large piece of darkness.

"There's really been a power outage nearby."

"Ah."

"It's not known how extensive the outage was."

"It's not too big, at least there is no power outage on Jingzi's side."

Walking along the familiar road to Kirino's house, even if you can't see anything clearly, you won't get lost, because the distance is too short, there is no chance of getting lost.

Walking up the winding stone path, before halfway through, Soya felt the phone vibrating in his pocket.

"Found."

"what?"

"Miss Kirino found that her phone was missing."

The vibration continued, and the bell rang, and Kirino Akane touched his thigh through the raincoat.

"...don't mess around."

"Where is the phone?"

"Not here. And it will be here soon, don't worry about it."

"Ok."

Soya quickened his pace, Kirino Akane followed closely, and the ringing of the mobile phone subsided quickly.

One step at a time, one stone slab, and walking, a flashlight suddenly lit up in the darkness in the distance.

"It's mom...it should be mom?"

"probably."

The two continued to walk up, and the beam of light kept shaking, and it also approached this side.

After a while, the two sides converged into one place.

"..."

Walking alone on a dark rainy night, suddenly seeing two ghost-like figures standing in front of her, Keiko Kirino almost threw the flashlight over and opened her mouth to call "husband".

Fortunately, Akane Kirino spoke faster, "Mom?"

"Cy?"

She raised the light, and what was exposed under the hood of the raincoat was indeed her daughter's pretty face, and beside her was Soya.

Her heartbeat slowly returned to normal, and she let out a long breath, "Why don't you turn on the lights?"

"There's no flashlight over there."

After illuminating the faces of the two, the light moved down and landed on the hands of the two.

Keiko Kirino couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Have you finally reached this point?"

"No." Sogu immediately denied.

"What?" Akane Kirino asked back.

The spotlight hit Zongya's face, and two eyes converged: "Ask Zonggu."

"..."

Soya felt helpless, "Miss Kirino..."

Kirino Keiko smiled, the scene in front of her was enough to make her happy, so she didn't continue to embarrass him, "What are you two doing here?"

"Come to give mother's mobile phone." Kirino Akane said.

"Ah, it really fell over there. I'm going to go and get it."

The three of them were all wearing raincoats, and the mobile phone was still in Soya's pocket, so it was inconvenient to hand over, so Keiko Kirino turned and walked back.

"Come up and talk."

At Kirino's house, Soya pulled up his raincoat, took out his mobile phone and handed it to Kirino Keiko.

"Why are there two missed calls... Qian?"

"Ah, haha... we're going back." Akane Kirino put on her hat and turned around to leave. Before she could go out, she came over and pulled Soya, "Let's go."

"Wait a moment."

Kirino Keiko called Soya to stop, and put the flashlight into his hand.

"Leave it to Soya, I hope you will not disappoint my expectations."

"...If Kirino-san was talking about a flashlight."

"Oh, don't you understand that very well?"

"We're going back first."

Kirino Keiko stood at the door, watching the two children go back the same way and gradually walk away.

And within a few steps, the flashlight was transferred to Akane Kirino's hand, and the beam of light pointed to the sky.

"Follow the road."

"Got it."

With a flashlight shining on the road, the two quickly returned to Kirino's old house.Hongzi and Chaowuling had already cleaned up the melted wax on the table, one was looking at the phone, and the other was playing with Kirino Akane's precious collection.

"So fast."

"Send back the phone and you'll be back." Soya said.

"What are we going to do next?" The desk lamp was bright enough, Kirino Akane turned off the flashlight, put it in her treasure box, and quickly picked it up again, thinking it would be better to carry it with her.

"Wash up and go to sleep."

"Hey, Soya said before going out that he didn't plan to sleep now."

"I changed my mind."

"But I'm not sleepy yet."

"Then give me the flashlight." Soya held out his hand.

"Why?" Akane Kirino asked, but the flashlight was directly given to him.

Sogu turned on the light and left the living room, "Wash up."

Without any hesitation, Zhao Wuling got up and followed.

Kirino Akane and Hongzi looked at each other, the power outage restricted most of the entertainment, there was nothing else to do, and they could only choose to go back to their room to rest.

"How much battery does Hongzi's phone have?"

"About 60.00 percent."

"Hey, I'm only at 20.00%."

When they came to the bathroom, Soya and Asagiri had just finished washing and came out with a flashlight.

When passing by, Zong Gu glanced at the two of them respectively, "Good night."

Kirino Akane hugged the desk lamp, "It's so early, can Soya really sleep?"

"You can always fall asleep while lying down. At least Bell is already sleepy. She hasn't slept well these days."

"Okay... good night."

Watching the two of them go upstairs, Akane Kirino finds a place to put a lamp, and washes up with Hongzi.

"You can apply some of this after washing your face." She pointed to a small bottle in front of the mirror, "But my mother said, it's too early for me to use this."

"Because Qian's skin is very good, it doesn't need to be maintained now... You see, it's tender and smooth." Hongzi reached out and pinched her face for a while, it felt soft, and she couldn't put it down.

Kirino Qian sighed, put her face in one hand, and looked at herself in the mirror, "No matter how beautiful a woman is, there will be a day when someone will grow old sooner or later."

"...Stop watching those boring evening shows."

"Hahaha."

Playing and joking, the two stayed in front of the sink for a long time.

For a while, they observed each other's skin, worrying about some insignificant blemish; for a while, they studied a certain skin care product together, and daubed little by little on each other's faces and nose tips.

Until a certain moment, the desk lamp placed aside suddenly became dimmer.

"Hey, is the battery running out..."

"It's been open all night."

As if darkness would fall at any time, both of them panicked, put down the bottles and cans in their hands, and hurried back to the room upstairs.

Lying on the quilt, although the desk lamp was dim, it was not completely extinguished. The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

"..."

Hearing the vague laughter in the next room, Soya turned over in the darkness.

"Does it take so long to wash your face?"

In the dark room, there was only a little light from the window. He lay down for a while, brewing drowsiness for the premature sleep, when he suddenly heard something other than the sound of rain.

The footsteps stopped at the door, followed by Akane Kirino's voice: "Soya, are you asleep?"

The only right choice was to keep silent, and he did.

It wasn't the first time she came to harass her in the middle of the night. Normally, if she didn't get a response, she would basically stop here.

"—He's pretending to be asleep. I saw the light of the phone just now."

"..."

But today, some people are talking nonsense and fabricating it out of thin air.

"Soya—"

Akane Kirino opened the door and walked in, followed by Hongzi.

"I'm almost falling asleep. What's the matter?"

"The lamp is almost out of power."

Zongya opened his eyes and looked at the dim desk lamp in her hand, "The last time I charged it was before I went to Kyushu. I used it for so long today, and it's normal even without electricity... Pillow?"

Only then did he notice that she and Hongzi who came in later were both holding pillows in their arms.

"What are you going to do?"

"Can't sleep." Akane Kirino opened the closet, took out another quilt, and spread it on the floor, "Come over and chat for a while."

"I'm already sleepy."

Hongzi dragged the quilt towards him, lay down, covered with a thin quilt, "Then you go to sleep first."

"There are sluts, I dare not sleep."

"..."

Hongzi stretched out his foot, kicked his leg through the quilt, and then didn't take it back.

Putting the desk lamp above the gap between the two quilts, Kirino Akane also got into the quilt and lay down on the other side.

Sogu looked at the dim light, "Whose idea is this?"

"Mine." Akane Kirino said.

But Zongya didn't fully believe it, and his intuition told him that there should be a lot of "credit" from Hongzi.

After all, she is very provocative, even if she is persuaded by Hongzi, she still thinks it is her idea.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Whatever, such as plans for next month." Akane Kirino turned over and held up her phone to show him the time, "Look, there are still two more hours until next month."

Then Soya remembered that today is the last day of July.

"Are you planning... What are your plans?"

"Turn around first." Hongzi was lying on his side with his glasses taken off and placed in the middle, so he squinted slightly when looking at him.

Sogu turned his head, looked at the two girls under the light yellow light, but turned around anyway.

Hongzi smiled, and most of his thoughts were devoted to restraining his urge to get closer to him, so that it took a while before he remembered what he wanted to say: "I'm going to stay at my grandma's house for a few days, and then I'll be with my family again." Going on a trip, Soya knows about it."

"I know. When are we going?"

"Go when the typhoon is over, the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Soya hummed, then looked at Akane Kirino, "What about you?"

"Let's stay with Hongzi at her grandmother's house for a few days, and then we'll see the situation." Lying on the quilt, Akane Kirino swung her legs up and down, "When it comes to summer, the most important thing to ignore is the summer festival and the firework festival. I want to investigate the summer festivals in nearby cities and participate in more times!"

"Most of the summer festivals are in the same form, won't you get bored?"

"You have to participate in this kind of thing to know."

Soya nodded, and when she looked over and wanted to speak, she said, "I remember that there is a Tanabata Festival in Kyoto."

"Hmm." Akane Kirino's attention was immediately attracted, and she talked about various activities during the Tanabata Festival in Kyoto, as well as her previous experience of attending the Tanabata Festival.

When she had finished speaking, he timely introduced a new topic: "Is 'Wushan Sending Fire' very lively? I haven't seen it with my own eyes."

"lively!"

Speaking of the fire delivery in Wushan in mid-August, Akane Kirino was so excited that her mouth was dry and she was still tireless.

"I heard that there is also a firework festival held on Lake Biwa."

"Yeah! You know a lot, but I've participated in them all. Lake Biwa Fireworks Festival is..."

She spoke with gusto, Soya nodded and echoed.

Hongzi put his feet up suddenly, "Having said so much, what is Sogu's plan for the summer vacation?"

"No plans for now."

He moved his legs back, "Because it's my first time spending summer here in Kinki, so I want to hear the opinions of experienced locals first."

As he spoke, he nodded to the "experienced local" behind her.Akane Kirino accepted it calmly, and she couldn't hide her complacency, "What else does Soya want to know?"

"Well... what did you just say?"

"Look, he wasn't listening seriously at all!" Hongzi told the truth.

"I'm still digesting."

"Then stop absorbing it first." Hongzi pressed hard on his leg, "I heard from Akane that Soya seems to be going to Kanto for a few days, when is he going?"

It was indeed for this matter...

"It's not for fun." Soya shook his head, "Yuedu and I... Yuezi has serious things to do."

"The so-called serious business, do you mean visiting the local Tsukiyomi Shrine?"

"Ah."

Hongzi looked at him for a while, seemed to want to say something, but held back, and asked, "When are you leaving?"

Of course it is when you are inconvenient.

Of course Soya didn't say it directly, "It depends."

"What's the situation?" The person who asked was Akane Kirino.

"This is complicated: such as the weather, such as the mood, and the organization's arrangements."

Hongzi looked at him, "If you decide on the itinerary, remember to tell Qian and me."

"I told you, I'm not here to play."

"Well, so we won't delay Soya's itinerary, just go there together, and then go about our own business. That's okay, right?"

"..."

Soya pursed his lower lip, lay down again, and looked at the ceiling.

Having already been to the beach together, Kirino Akane's desire to go to Kanto is not very strong, the key is Hongzi.

"You just said, when did you go to grandma's house?"

"The day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, forget it so soon..." Hongzi suddenly understood, "Is this an exchange?"

Zong Gu didn't answer, but said: "Suddenly remembered, Ling has always said that she wants to go to the countryside to see, can you take her with you?"

Hongzi nodded, "Of course..."

"I'll go with her."

"Okay." Akane Kirino was very happy, Hongzi hesitated for a while before nodding.

"Stay in the country for a few days. When Hongzi goes on a tour, I will also go to Kanto, so I should have returned to Kinki when you come back." Zong Gu tilted his head and looked at her, "When the time comes We can play together again."

"...that sounds really nice."

Hongzi buried her head in the pillow, sighed softly, knowing everything in her heart.

It's just that he has already given her enough benefits.

"whatever."

　Good morning.It's really cold this year, it's already mid-May, and I'm still wearing a thick coat.
