Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 335 Maybe You Like It
After eating, drinking, stopping and walking, and wandering around the festival for several hours, when it was time to return to the hotel, Soya once again regretted that the festival could not end with a firework display.

"I can only find a chance to participate after returning to Kinki. By the way, Lake Biwa Fireworks Festival..."

"It's just today." Zhao Wuling's voice came from behind, "At this time, the fireworks festival is over."

"Ah, yes."

Soya lifted her up, thinking that Akane Kirino might not be going to Kyoto at night, but went to Otsu to watch the firework festival.

"Are you tired?" With her arms around his neck, she moved closer to Wuling and kissed him on the ear.

Soya shook his head, looking at the hotel not far away, "It's almost here."

"Ah."

At the entrance of the hotel, Zhao Wuling came down.

Back in the room, the mobile phone left on the bed was flickering non-stop.

Picking it up and looking at it, the amount of news is even more astonishing.

Twenty or thirty messages came from different people.

Kyoko: [image]
Kyoko: I went to see the Lake Biwa Fireworks Festival with Ms. Noma and the others.

Minami Noma: [Image]
Minami Noma: Kyoko, the Holy Priestess under the fireworks.

Minami Noma: How was the capture? It’s beautiful, right?You don't need to thank me, just take it as a thank you gift to you for settling Xia Cai.

Hongzi: Finally back to the hotel, I'm so tired.

Hongzi: My sister fell asleep in the car.It kept pouring on me, and I couldn't wake up, and the saliva flowed onto my shoulder.

Hongzi: What are you doing?

Hongzi: My sister is out, it's time for me to take a shower.

Hongzi: I like Soya the most~
Hongzi: Do you want to see how I take a shower?

Hongzi: Ahhhh!
Hongzi: The previous two messages were sent by my sister!

Hongzi: What about you?

Soya found out that she had really gone to Kyoto to attend the Tanabata Festival alone at night after reading the news about Akane Kirino.

And she chose to withdraw the last few messages she sent, not knowing what she originally sent.

"I'm going to take a shower."

After walking around for so long, Chao Wuling decided to take another bath before going to bed.Declining her invitation to take a bath together, Soya sat by the bed and replied to the messages one by one.

The last person to reply was Akane Kirino.

Soya: Sorry.I went to the festival with bell at night, but didn't bring my mobile phone.Did you go back?

The message was read quickly, and it was only four or five minutes before she sent a reply.

Kirino: None.

Looking at the time, Soya frowned.

Soya: If you don't go back, there will be no trams.

Kirino: I'm still on the edge of the Kamo River...

Soya: Are you still shopping?

It took her a while to reply.

Kirino: What is Soya doing now?
Soya: Sending you a message.

Kirino: I want to call.

Something was wrong with her, Soya had a vague premonition.

After hesitating for a moment, he took the initiative to make a phone call.

She quickly picked it up: "Song Gu..."

"Tirino." Zongya had the worst plan, but he still wanted to hear what she had to say first, "What are you still doing there?"

"did not do anything."

Kirino Akane's voice didn't sound too unusual, "Just sitting by the river."

"Aren't you going back?" Soya asked.

"I'll be back later."

"Ah."

"Um……"

"..."

"..."

Both fell silent.

Sure enough, something happened, Soya thought.

"Kirino..." / "That..."

The two spoke again almost at the same time, Akane Kirino took a step slower, but instead grabbed the right to speak: "What is Soya doing?"

She seemed to be a little nervous, and what she asked was meaningless, Sogu seemed to be able to see the expected worst situation striding towards her.

He took a deep breath, and decided to persuade her to go home before saying, "I just went back to the hotel, and now I'm waiting for Kirino to go back."

Kirino Akane didn't speak.

"You haven't come home so late, didn't Miss Qingzi call?"

"Mom is in the shop..."

He looked out into the night, "Then you should go back."

"I know...I'll go back right away." Even so, there was still no movement on her side.

After a short silence, Akane Kirino called him: "Soya..."

"Ah."

"I just...not just now, about an hour ago, I met a middle-aged couple by the river."

Soya listened and motioned for her to continue, "Yeah."

"Then, one of the aunts said some strange things to me..."

Zong Gu pursed his lips, "What did she say?"

"what……"

Inhale, exhale.

Then, a very soft whisper came from the microphone.

"..."

The ears couldn't hear clearly, but Zonggu's mind had already completed the syllables blown away by the wind word by word.

He felt that he shouldn't speak again, but he still made an inquiry out of nowhere, hoping to hear her express more clearly.

"what?"

More or less, he was influenced by Zhao Wuling's idea of ​​tearing away all cover and solving the problem.

Akane Kirino was silent for another minute.

"I forgot...I'll tell you when I remember."

Somewhat unexpectedly, but also somewhat fortunately, Sogu did not pursue further.

"I see."

She responded, and couldn't help but sigh again.

"Songya..."

"Ah."

Her voice was full of confusion and confusion: "I feel very confused now."

"Tirino..." Sogu hesitated to speak, but he was even more worried about her situation when she was out alone, "You go back first, I will keep in touch with you."

"Okay." After rustling, there was finally some other movement over there.

Sogu thought for a while, then called her back, "Wait a minute."

"what happened?"

"Where is Kirino now?"

"I'm..." She paused, probably confirming her position, "On the embankment between the four bridges and the three bridges."

"Then you go back to the Four Bridges first."

"That's what I intended."

"Well, I'll go away."

Putting down the phone, Soya came to the door of the bathroom, knocked on the door twice, "bell."

"Come in."

He went in, soaked in the bathtub towards Wuling, and looked at him.

"Tirino is still in Kyoto, can Ling arrange a car to take her home?"

She looked at him, "Mobile phone."

Soya went to fetch her mobile phone again and took it to the bathroom.

He made a phone call, said a few words to Wuling, and then handed over the phone to him.

"Please tell me." A female voice came from the microphone.

Soya couldn't assign others as freely as Asagirisuzu, took a breath, and then said: "Please go to the bridgehead on the Gion side of the Shijo Bridge, and send someone back to Jinhu City for me."

"You are very kind. No problem."

The other party responded, and then asked him about the general characteristics of the person to be picked up.

"White yukata, red flower and green leaf pattern, long hair coiled, name is Kirino Akane..."

"I see. I'll be there in five minutes."

Before hanging up the phone, Soya did not forget to ask the other party what his car looked like.

"All right."

"Yeah." Chao Wuling lay on the edge of the bathtub, "Would you like to come in and soak for a while?"

Zongya squeezed the phone, and stroked her cheek with the other hand, "Let's talk about it later."

"Ah."

He went out again.

Picking up her mobile phone again, before Soya could speak, Kirino Akane's voice came out: "Soya, are you back yet?"

"Ah."

"Where did you go just now?"

Zongya stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down, "I didn't go anywhere, I just arranged for a car to take you back."

"Eh……"

"Where are you now?"

Akane Kirino raised her eyes and looked ahead, "It's already under the Shijo Bridge."

"Well, you go up first."

"it is good……"

Stepping on the stairs, the sound of rattling footsteps also became obvious.

"I'm up."

Holding the phone up all the time, her arm was a little sore, Akane Kirino changed her hand to hold it, "Is it Soya's friend?"

"No, but it's about the same. If you pay attention, she will arrive in five minutes. It's a silver car..."

A silver car stopped in front of her.

Akane Kirino was stunned for a moment, and a middle-aged woman got out of the car and walked straight towards her.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Kirino Akane?"

"Yes……"

She bowed slightly, then opened the door of the back seat, "Mr. Soya assigned me to take you back, please get in the car."

Soya's voice also came from the microphone: "Has the car arrived? It's so fast...then get in the car."

"Oh." Kirino Qian sat in the car in a daze.

After asking about the destination and confirming that she was seated firmly, the silver car started silently and plunged headlong into the deepening night.

"Songya..."

"Ah."

Akane Kirino quietly looked at the female driver in the front row, keeping her voice extremely low.

"Is the person driving the car really Soya's friend?"

There were only her and the driver in the car. Although the melodious music was still playing, the other party still heard her words, but they only looked in the rearview mirror. Her professionalism kept her silent and said nothing.

"No, I haven't seen her before." Soya said, "But you can rest assured that she is arranged by Suzu."

"Is it a bell..."

Akane Kirino didn't delve into why her heart jumped, "By the way, I seem to have met Soya and Suzu's teacher before."

The other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds, "Teacher Orange?"

"Correct."

"Did she say anything to you?"

"No."

Kirino Akane told him about her encounter with Tachibana Emperor on the banks of the Kamogawa River.

"So that's how it is..." The two just glanced at each other from a distance, but there was no contact, so Soya could only deduce that it was a coincidence, "The teacher is probably drinking over there."

"Oh."

If it was normal, Akane Kirino might ask a few more questions, but today is just that.

She looked outside, the car was speeding, and the backing lights were almost in a line, but she didn't feel it at all in the car.

"This should be a very high-end car..."

The female driver didn't know if she was asking herself, so she took another look in the rearview mirror.Seeing that the girl in the back seat was listening intently to the voice on the phone, she looked away again.

"It should be, I've never sat before." Soya said.

"2000 million?" Akane Kirino randomly guessed the price.

"Probably have to add a zero."

"Wow, it's so expensive..."

Both of them smiled.

Since contacting him, Akane Kirino found that her restlessness and agitation disappeared all of a sudden, and she regained relaxation and calm;
But it was only temporary, and there was one question that kept her stranded by the river, and she still hadn't got an answer.

"Will Soya come back tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow I want to visit my parents' grave and say hello to the relatives nearby. I'll be back the day after tomorrow."

"Ah... um."

Akane Kirino held the phone, "Then let's talk about it when Soya comes back."

"Well." He didn't ask what she wanted to say.

The topic maker most of the time, now creates silence, and Soya doesn't speak.

Only the call remained on, so that they could still hear each other's breathing.

Not long after, Zhao Wuling came out of the bathroom.

Soya turned his head, she looked at him at the door of the bathroom, and then pointed inside.

"Kirino."

"what……"

"I went to take a shower."

"……Oh."

"When you get home, remember to send me a message."

"understood."

After hanging up the phone, Akane Kirino put down the phone, leaned back, and looked out the car window again.

【"You must have been thinking about the person you like just now..."】

"Do I like Soya...?"

The starry sky is vast and silent.

She is like an inconspicuous star among them, not knowing her position, and far away from her companions, unable to get an answer.

buzz-

Yoshikawa Aoko glanced at the head of the bed, but the younger sister on the other bed reacted faster and had already got the phone in her hand.

"What are you doing, with a vigilant look... I won't read your news."

Hongzi rolled her eyes and curled her lips to show that she didn't believe a word.

"Boy friend?"

"Um... no, it's not."

Although it was indeed the message from Soya.

And she just glanced at it, then put down the phone again.

"Take a shower, just take a shower, tell me what to do..."

"Otherwise, Hongzi will hold the phone in a daze again: 'Why hasn't Zongya replied to my message, is there another woman?'"

"...I can't say that kind of thing!"

She really wouldn't say such things, but the actual situation was just like what her sister said, Hongzi couldn't control her emotions and couldn't help raising her voice.

She turned over and turned her back to her sister who didn't understand anything, and didn't want to talk to her for the time being.

buzz-

"Eh……"

She froze for a moment, then picked up the phone again, but the message was not from Soya.

Akane: How does it feel to like someone?
"..."

In an instant, as if the bed beneath her and even the entire hotel building collapsed suddenly, Hongzi suddenly felt like she was falling rapidly.And the depth below was bottomless, she was at a loss and couldn't catch anything.

Has Sis noticed it?

Have you finally noticed...

Why at this time?
Is it because I separated from Soya for a few days...

Or did you meet too many couples at the Tanabata Festival, and finally realized that your dependence on Soya is actually liking?

What should she do...

Holding the phone, Hongzi was dumbfounded.

"what happened?"

Yoshikawa Aoko glanced up casually, and was taken aback by her younger sister's sudden depression, "Wow, did Soya-kun break up with you?"

"no……"

Hongzi came back to her senses and gave her a weak look, "We're not dating either."

"That means he's dating someone else?"

Hongzi didn't want to pay attention, took a deep breath, and turned over again.

"do not know!"

My sister is easy to deal with, or even needn't deal with it, but how should Qian respond...

buzz-

As the car drove forward in the dark, Akane Kirino picked up her phone and glanced at it.

Hongzi: I don't know either.

"Fool, you're still pretending to like Soya, even if it's a fabrication, you should be able to make up a few words...Although it's been a long time since I mentioned this 'secret'."

She wanted to laugh a little, but subconsciously relaxed a little.

Fortunately, Hongzi's liking is a fake...

But the problem always comes back to me.

Akane Kirino became bored again, and once again regretted coming alone.

If she didn't come to the capital, she wouldn't meet that aunt, and if she didn't meet her, she wouldn't hear those strange words.

This feeling is like being suddenly told that a playmate who grew up with her has actually made a marriage contract with her and will become her husband in the future; because of the past relationship, she does not resist, but surprise is also inevitable, which makes her Involuntarily, they began to look at each other, and at the same time, they also looked at themselves, how did each other view this relationship...

Although she and Zongya have only known each other for about half a year.

"..."

Taking a deep breath to clear away distracting thoughts, Akane Kirino looked out the window again.

Covered in the tulle of night, even the familiar scenery is sometimes difficult to distinguish, and now she doesn't know where she is.

"Well, how long before we get there?"

"There are about 10 minutes left, Ms. Kirino."

In addition to explaining the address, the second conversation after getting on the bus was also very brief, so that's it.

Akane Kirino leaned back, continued to stare blankly for a while, and suddenly picked up the phone to look again.

"Hongzi doesn't ask anything... Are you tired from playing today?"

She clicked into each other's dialogue boxes, typed a long list of sentences, and then deleted them all at once.

Let's talk about this kind of topic when we meet, Akane Kirino thought, maybe she will understand by then.

After a while, the street outside became familiar, Kirino Akane leaned on the car window and looked at it for a while, "Is it coming?"

"Yes."

The driver slowed down and turned a corner at the intersection.

"I can wait here if you need it."

"Hey, what do you need..."

Akane Kirino looked outside and quickly realized, "No, I won't go to the convenience store."

She kept staring at the convenience store, just to confirm the location.

"Ok."

Turning the corner, the speed increased slightly.

A few minutes later, the car stopped at the intersection near the old house.

"Just come here."

She got out of the car and bowed slightly to the female driver, "Thank you."

"you are welcome."

The other party smiled, "It is my honor to serve Miss Ling's friend."

Akane Kirino didn't know what to say, and the other party didn't want to talk too much, so she drove away after saying goodbye.

Standing at the intersection, she looked around.

One side leads to her own home, and the other side leads to the old house with no one in it. At this time, she should have no second choice.

And she chose the other side.

Opening the door of the old house, she was startled by the sudden black figure rushing over.

"Alps!"

Akane Kirino touched Shiba Inu's head, then turned on the light and entered the old house.

Maybe it was too preoccupied for him to think, or maybe it was just having the Alps around her feet, but she didn't find it particularly scary to be alone in the old house.

Kirino Akane: I'm home.

Soya: Pretty fast.

Kirino Akane: I plan to live in the old house at night.

Soya: Are you not afraid?

Kirino Akane: Not afraid yet.

Soya: It's too late to be afraid when you're sleeping.

"I'm not that timid..."

Kirino Akane pouted, not intending to change her mind.

She also told her parents that she was going to sleep here, and she went to take a bath.

After washing, even if she unconsciously quickened her pace when going upstairs, she did not admit that she was a little scared.

Although as soon as she went upstairs, she got into Soya's room.

Spreading out his bedding and smelling his smell, Akane Kirino lay down and continued her troubles.

"Do you like it... How can I confirm it?"
