Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 411 Deep Snow
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the library's radio suddenly rang.

"Due to the bad weather, please leave the school as soon as possible for the students who are still in the school and do not stay. When leaving the school, please inform the teachers and guardians..."

With the same content, the radio rang twice before it stopped, and several people looked at each other.

"It's time to go back."

"Ah."

The teacher in charge of the library also rushed over quickly to drive the students back.

"Remember to go back to the classroom first, your teacher is waiting for you there."

Even if she doesn't say it, they have to go back to get their schoolbags.

"Sister, come back with us later." Akane Kirino said to Fumio Amamiya, "I don't feel at ease with you alone."

"OK……"

"Sister, ask Kyoko to wait for me too."

"Ok."

When we came to the cold outside, the wind and snow didn't decrease, but it got bigger and bigger. This is also the main reason why the school finally started to urge the students to go back.

Soya pulled the Asagiri bell, Hongko followed Kirino Akane, and the four rushed back to the classroom, and Shibasaki Makoto was already waiting here.

"Kirino-san, Takeuchi-sensei is waiting for you in your class."

"Ah... oh."

Kirino Akane just sat down, then got up and went back to her class.

There were only a few Fushimi people left in the classroom who were packing up their things. The three of Soya got their things and prepared to go back. Makoto Shibasaki said that he would go back early after leaving school, and that the train would stop running at any time.

"I see. Ah Cheng should also drive carefully when he goes back."

Makoto Shibazaki nodded, and then crossed out the names of the three of Soya and Akane Kirino who accidentally wrote it on the attendance book.

"Songya."

Fushimi came out, "Shall we go to the station, let's go together."

"Ah."

They called Akane Kirino, and when they got down to the second floor, they called Kami Kyoko and Amamiya-senpai, and they left the school together despite the wind and snow.

Going down the stairs, Soya and Fushimi walked in front, and the girls followed behind them.

"Grab the handrail."

"It's so cold..."

"Grab."

"Got it."

When it was almost in the middle of the descent, Fushimi looked back at the girls behind him, and moved closer to Soya again.

"Even sister Amamiya?"

"what?"

"Soya's 'girlfriend'."

"Don't talk nonsense, senior sister Amamiya is just going back with us along the way."

That is to say, apart from Yu Gong-senpai, the other girls are all his girlfriends.

Fushimi looked at the sky, the obvious fluctuation made his heart as cold as the wind and snow.

"Look at the road."

"Let me fall to my death."

"Not now. If you fell to your death now, I might still be responsible."

"You are heartless!"

He began to regret coming to school today again.

After walking down a few more steps, Fushimi remembered something: "By the way, it will be Christmas soon, does Soya have any plans?"

"What are your plans?"

"That's right, anyway, someone will definitely give you a gift... It should be said that there are many gifts."

Speaking of gifts, Soya was thoughtful, and then said: "Fushimi will also receive gifts from his parents."

Fushimi looked up at the sky again, before he could complain, his feet slipped.

Zonggu quickly grabbed him, and there were several exclamations behind him, and several hands stretched out at the same time, grabbing the two of them.

"..."

Fushimi, who had just recovered from the shock and managed to stand still, took a long time to recover.

"thanks……"

"I told you to watch the way." Sogu also broke into a cold sweat.

Stepping on the snow-covered steps and continuing to go down, Fushimi was much more careful.

"Yesterday Kinoshita said that he was going to hold a Christmas party at his home, and wanted to invite people from Class A and Class B to attend."

"How big is his house?"

"Haha, I don't know, it shouldn't be too young. Is Soya coming?"

"Where is Kinoshita's house?"

"It seems to be in Kasuga Town in Otsu."

Zongya thought for a while, but didn't directly agree or refuse, "Let's talk about it at that time... It's not up to me alone to decide whether to come or not."

"OK." Fushimi glanced back, expressing his understanding.

Finally at the foot of the mountain, Soya brushed his hair, and Kyoko came over and patted the snow off his shoulders.

Walking towards the station, Soya took out his mobile phone and checked the operation status of the tram again.

Fortunately, there are still no suspensions along the Kosai Line and the Biwako Line.

"It would be great if the snow fell one day later." Kirino Qian said.

Tomorrow is the weekend, if it doesn't snow, there is no need to come to school, "Just a few more days, and we will be off until the last day of this semester."

"That would be a snow disaster." Soya said, "Has there been such a heavy snowfall in Kinki before?"

Stepping into deep snow, Akane Kirino shook her head, "In my impression, there has never been such a deep snow..."

Arriving at the station, looking at the tracks that were almost filled with heavy snow, Soya was unavoidably a little apprehensive.

"There is such a deep snow on the track, the tram won't overturn." Fushimi thought similarly to him.

"Don't be crowed."

Lake Biwa in the snow is empty and quiet, forming a scene of its own.

Surrounded by snow, the lake is even darker with clear boundaries.When we came to the platform, there was a lot of snow outside, covering up the other side that was originally faintly visible.

After watching the snow scene for a long time, accompanied by a whistle, the white-dyed tram broke through the snow waves and finally entered the station.

Squeeze into the warm compartment, and during the waiting period, most of the students who came to the school today also arrived at the station.

"It's better to be crowded. With so many people pressing down, the tram won't overturn easily..." Fushimi whispered.

"..."

After the carriages were almost full, the tram finally restarted and headed south.

Looking at the snowflakes flying outside the window, Soya looked at Akane Kirino and the others sitting there.When they came to the platform, it was still relatively empty, so they took a good seat, lined up to get on the train, and squeezed into a few seats smoothly.

Hongzi was also looking at him, then patted his leg.

Soya smiled.

The heavy snow was so deep that it took more than an hour to arrive at Otsukyo Station after a journey of four to five or 10 minutes.

"Go down."

Fushimi got off the car here, "I'm going to do some shopping at the mall here. See you next week."

"Well, see you next week." Looking at the platform outside, Soya decided to come back tomorrow, if the heavy snow stopped.

The door is quickly closed again.

At the next station, Yamashina changed trains, and after waiting for a long time, several people got on the tram of the Biwako Line.

Soya sat with Hongzi, "If it doesn't snow tomorrow, I'm going to come over again, to the shopping mall at Otsukyo Station."

"What do you want to buy?" she asked over her shoulder.

"Christmas gift."

"Oh……"

Hongzi began to consider whether to come with him.

Although she really wants to go shopping with him, the surprise of receiving a Christmas gift is also indispensable. She doesn't want to know in advance what the Christmas gift she will receive...but she has to choose for him As for presents, we can just go together tomorrow.

Do you want to come with him... or should you come with Akane at another time?
"It's not for you." Soya added.

"……Oh."

Hongzi responded, and a few seconds later he raised his fist and hit him.

Catching her fist easily, Soya smiled, "Of course I will also prepare Hongzi's gift, but tomorrow I will prepare gifts for everyone in the Children's Welfare Institute."

"what."

She was taken aback for a moment, then blinked again, "I see."

"Because there are many people to buy, I probably can't do it alone, and I don't know what to choose. Come and help me."

"Okay. Will it be mailed by then?"

"Ah."

The wind and snow continued, and the return tram was also slow.Kirino Akane and Hongzi discussed what gifts to buy, while Kyoko and Asagiri listened beside them.

At Yezhou Station, Kyoko got off first.

"I called at noon to confirm that the power to the shrine has been restored. As for the replacement of the overall line on the mountain, I have to discuss it with the specific person in charge. I plan to wait until the weather clears up." Soya said.

Kyoko nodded, "Okay."

Looking at the snowstorm outside, he tugged at her collar and hugged her again, "Be careful on the road."

"uh-huh."

After waving goodbye to the people in the car, Kyoko turned and left after the tram started up again.

Kyoko: I'm home.

Soya: If you're going to the shrine, come back early.

Kyoko: Good.

After two stops, the four of them also got out of the car.

The familiar street scene was covered by vast white snow, which brought a sense of freshness that was not usually seen. Soya looked around for a while on the steps of the station.

"I've already told my mother that I'm back here." Hongzi said while holding the phone.

"Ah."

Akane Kirino also notified her parents and got a reply to go home early.

There is snow all the way, and many places have not been set foot.

With one foot deep and one foot shallow, the snow creaked under the feet, and it was quite difficult to return to the old house. Soya stopped, and Kirino Akane bumped into him behind him.

"Well……"

She lowered her head and closed her eyes, "Songgu, I'm a little dazzled..."

"I told you not to keep staring at Xue."

Pulling her into the room, Akane Kirino got used to it for a while before her eyes recovered.

Putting down the things, she grabbed Soya who was taking off his shoes.

"What are you doing?"

"I want to play sledding."

"you play."

"You come and pull me."

Sogu turned to look at Hongzi, "Bring your dog here."

"... Alps is just a Shiba Inu, it can't be pulled."

"How do you know if you don't try."

"It's just that big!"

Calling the dog failed, so Soya had to play by himself.

There was no sled in the old house. Akane Kirino dug out a small wooden drawer from the warehouse, hung it with a rope, and sat in it for him to drag.

"Fortunately, my butt is not big, so I can just sit in it. Hongzi can't do it."

"Cy!"

After dragging her around the yard twice, Sogu was a little out of breath.

"Tired?"

"Fortunately."

"Then let's go out for a turn."

"..."

Sogu looked back at her, "You drag me when you come back."

"Okay."

So when they turned to the gate of the courtyard, Sogu dragged her out.

"Just get here."

"A little further forward."

After dragging forward for a while, Akane Kirino pointed forward, "Change when you get to the stone path."

Taking a deep breath, his teeth chattered from the cold, and his hands were strangled. Sogu regretted not wearing labor protection gloves just now.

"I should have used the thicker rope just now."

"Is it too thin... I feel that the rope is a bit old and may break."

"If you break it, it means you are fat."

Crack, a cloud of snow hit his back.

It was still snowing and there was no one on the road.

Akane Kirino hugged her legs and hummed, dragged by him, and looked up at the sky.

"Ah...there is someone in the sky."

"What do you say?"

"it is true."

Zonggu looked up, and sure enough there was a figure floating in the air.

"..."

It is monthly reading.

"It's Tsukiyomi-sama."

"What is he doing there?"

"To find Dalei."

"Stand tall and see far."

"Maybe." After staring at Tsukiyomi in mid-air for a while, Soya straightened the rope and dragged Akane Kirino to move forward.

He understood that Yuedu must have discovered them long ago.No matter what he was doing, if there was a need for him, he would have come down long ago.

"I have a good idea." Kirino Akane said.

"What's up with you again?"

"It's a good idea!"

She threw a ball of snow, and then said: "You ask Mr. Yuedu to catch some spirits and come to drag the sled. There are other things in the warehouse that can be used as sleds, and then we can play together."

"..."

Soya shook his head speechless.

"If you oppress the spirit bodies like this, they might mutate in the next second."

"Isn't Soya still here?"

"Don't think about it. Don't bother Tsukiyomi-sama."

"Ok."

Dragging Akane Kirino all the way to the bottom of the stone path, Soya stopped, and she got up as she said just now, ready to let him sit in.

"forget it."

The palms were red, and it hurt so much, Sogu didn't want her to become like this.

"Really? You said it yourself."

"Ah."

"Great~" Akane Kirino sat down again.

"I didn't say I would drag you back...Mom."

Keiko Kirino was walking down the stone path, holding an umbrella in her hand, and smiled at the two of them.

"It's snowing too hard, let me come and see you. Is there any problem?"

"no problem."

She came over, took one of the ropes from him, and beckoned him to move on.

Slightly controlled his footsteps, and was level with her, Soya looked back at Akane Kirino.

"There hasn't been such a heavy snowfall in decades." Keiko Kirino said, "The news said that it was a cold current blowing from the Sea of ​​Japan, and there are already deaths and injuries."

"yes……"

"Basically, accidents happened while clearing the snow, so you should be careful."

"I see."

Dragging her daughter back to the yard, Kirino Keiko looked at Le Hong's palm, and walked around the old house to check the snow on the roof.

"The roof is too high, don't care about it. Soya, help mom clear the snow on the warehouse side, I'm afraid I'll be crushed."

"Ok."

Kirino Akane also wanted to help, but was stopped by the two of them, so they could only watch from the side.

The warehouse is low, and with a simple snow scraper made of wooden boards and bamboo poles, Soya can scrape the top snow.

After working for a while and cleaning up the snow from the warehouse, Keiko Kirino looked at the roof of the main house again.

"Try to sleep downstairs at night, just in case. Or come and live here."

"I see."

Even though it was snowing heavily, the izakaya was still open, so Keiko Kirino packed up and prepared to go.

"Of course there will be business. It's better to say that the first snow in winter happens to be the time for a drink."

After watching her leave, Sogu returned to the house, and soon heard footsteps upstairs.

It should be read by the month.

He went up to see that Yueyue was pacing in the room, frowning.

"I'm thinking about something. I should find you later."

"Okay. By the way, if Tsukiyomi-sama is okay, please clear the snow off the roof."

"..."

Yuedu glanced at him, didn't say anything, went out through the window, picked up the snow scraper and went to the roof to scrape it.

Large pieces of snow fell one after another and hit the yard with muffled noises.

Soya returned to the living room, and reminded Akane Kirino and Hongzi not to go out for the time being, and not to stand by the side and poke their heads.

"I'm going home later, come back later." Hongzi said.

"I send you."

"no thanks."

After the snow on the roof was cleared, Yuedu didn't come down, and stood on the roof with a bamboo pole, continuing to think about things.

Seeing that there was no movement on the roof, Sogu let Hongzi go back.

It was snowing outside the house, and the doors and windows were closed to keep warm.

Soya and Kirino Akane got into the kotatsu, doing nothing, so they wrote the New Year's greetings.

Akane Kirino bought the year certificate a few days ago.When she went to the supermarket to buy things, she saw that the New Year's certificates were on sale, so she brought back a big bag and divided them on average, so that each person could get more than 20 certificates.

"The problem is... I don't seem to have that many people to send New Year's certificates to."

"There should be many friends in the children's welfare home, right?"

"Actually, there are only a few people who still keep in touch."

She put her feet up in the kotatsu, "It's okay, if you have more, just write to me."

Soya smiled and continued writing.

Mr. Dansheng, Mr. Kamorida... wrote a yearly letter to each of the welfare home teachers they knew well, followed by their former partners, Yoko, Hitomi, Nana, Chie and others.

For the relatives, Uncle Yinger's family is the first choice.

Next is...

As he was writing, Soya suddenly discovered that there were actually quite a few people he could send New Year's greetings to.

"It's so quiet."

Akane Kirino crawled out of the kotatsu, turned on the TV, and when she came back, she squeezed and sat in front of him.

"Soya has written a lot."

"I was a little surprised myself."

She laughed and leaned back again, "What..."

She was sitting in her arms, Sogu couldn't write any more for the time being, and happened to be a little tired, so he stopped to rest for a while.

Holding her waist, he lowered his head and buried his face in her long, fragrant hair.

The turned on TV played the latest news on its own, there were no viewers, only listeners.

["...with the Sea of ​​Japan side as the center, a large area of ​​heavy snowfall has ushered in. At present, snowfall in many areas of the country has broken records. In most cities in the west and north, the snow depth is close to one meter. And In parts of Hokkaido, Aomori and Gunma..."]

Listening to the broadcast on the TV, Soya slowly closed his eyes.

"Wait a minute, I can't take it anymore..."

Akane Kirino only felt that he was getting heavier and heavier, and she couldn't support him unless she supported the table, "Soya, Soya?"

"...Did you fall asleep again?"
