Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 66 The Walking Armor

Sitting in the car, Soya looked back at the three people who were either excited or calm, and reminded them that the driver was wild and must wear seat belts.

Looking at the side again, the wild driver is trying to reverse the car at this time.

"This car is too big, it's not easy to back it out..."

"Who told Miss Noma to be lazy when she parked the car in the morning?"

Soya sat in the familiar passenger seat, "Besides, this is obviously the car of Fuyun Shrine."

"I went to Nara last night, and I came back too late, so I didn't return the car."

"What if other people in the shrine want to use the car?"

"other people?"

Minami Noma glanced at him, "I'm the leader of the organization's operation team stationed at Fuyun Shrine, and only the operations led by me—I thought Soya knew about it long ago."

"Now I know, Captain."

After struggling for several minutes, Minami Noma finally drove the commercial vehicle with the words "Fuyun Shrine" on it out of the parking lot.

Surrounding down along the winding mountain road, Sogu looked at the occasional students who appeared on the road ahead, and suddenly thought of something.

"Do you want to go back to the shrine first?"

"why?"

"Miss Noma is still wearing a teacher's uniform."

She laughed, her face full of indifference.

"What does it matter, who said that witches must wear witch clothes to work."

Soya has reason to believe that the reason she can be so casual is entirely because Kyoko is not here today.

At the foot of the mountain, the commercial vehicle went straight forward, crossed the railway line, and drove north along the lakeside road.

The sun shines, and the blue waves of Lake Biwa are rippling, and the dots of light are connected into golden lines, flickering and jumping in the distance.

"Are you shy?" Minami Noma asked without reason.

Soya had never been here before, and was looking ahead, "What?"

She glanced at the interior rearview mirror, "I'm talking about them."

He turned around, only to realize that Kirino Akane and Yoshikawa who were sitting in the back were indeed too peaceful along the way.

"what happened?"

"No...it's just a little novelty."

Akane Kirino, who was sitting behind him, moved closer, "I thought the conversation between Soya and the teacher was very interesting, and I accidentally forgot to talk."

Minami Noma smiled, "What is this?"

"Hey. Where are we going now?" Akane Kirino asked.

"Hikone City. Do you know?"

"Of course. I'm a native of Golden Turtle City."

"It's all called Hikone Castle now, and I don't hear that name very much." Minami Noma glanced at her again in the rearview mirror, "We're going there."

Hikone City is to the northeast of Near Lake City, Soya finally understood why she chose to bypass Lake Biwa from the north.

"Speaking of which, is Hikone City also considered the Fuyun Shrine's jurisdiction?"

If so, the territory managed by Fuyun Shrine is too big.

"What are you thinking, of course not." Noma Minami said, "The spring festival is being prepared there recently, and the local shrine is too busy. We are going to help this time."

"I see."

"Excuse me……"

Yoshikawa Hongko also spoke, "What happened over there?"

She was the only ordinary person in the car. She couldn't get into the induction of the spiritual sense person, and she didn't participate in the conversation. Minami Noma almost ignored her.

"It's not a big deal. The client has a pair of armor from the Warring States Period in his home, and it started to move by itself in the past few days. We went to investigate the reason."

"It's moving? It must be someone's prank." Yoshikawa guessed.

"Who knows."

"so……"

She paused. "Is this actually detective work?"

"Detective?"

Minami Noma laughed twice, "If we don't find anything after we go there, then it should really be handed over to the detectives or the police."

What are you looking for?
Yoshikawa was a little dazed, and then heard her conversation with Soya.

"Isn't this child an ordinary person? Why did he join this club?"

"To make up the number."

"Hey."

Soya turned around and smiled at her.

"At least for now."

Yoshikawa frowned, becoming more and more puzzled.

Surrounding the northern shore of Lake Biwa, the business vehicle drove a group of people through Takayama City, Nagahama and Yonebara, and finally arrived at the destination of the trip, Hikone City.

Considering that it was Soya's first visit, Noma Minami made a detour to the vicinity of Hikone Castle.

Looking from a distance, the ancient city is surrounded by double moats, and the interior is layered. The highest tower with white walls and black tiles looks cold in the sun.

And he just looked at it a few times, and didn't show much interest.

"Oh, I thought boys would like this kind of thing more."

"Which era is your concept?"

Seeing that he wasn't interested, Noma Minami didn't stay long, "Maybe it's because Soya is different from ordinary boys."

"It's as if Miss Noma knows boys very well." Soya said casually.

"Don't say that, boys and I also have some common hobbies."

"..."

Soya didn't answer, and turned his head to look sideways.

Noma Minami turned the steering wheel, and the commercial vehicle turned into a slightly narrow path.There are residential areas on both sides, and there are a few pedestrians on the road.

Before reaching the next intersection, she couldn't help it.

"Don't you ask?"

Zong Gu didn't turn his head, "What are you asking, I already knew."

"Who told you that?"

"No one specifically told me, I just saw it with my own eyes, combined with some hearsay... and Miss Noma herself didn't hide it."

Minami Noma’s so-called hobby with boys is girls—she likes girls.

"oops."

She lightly stepped on the accelerator, "Sure enough, you can't hide your liking."

"..."

Even if the topic of love is not excluded, she is not a suitable conversation partner in terms of Minami Noma's rough personality most of the time;

Just remembering what he had seen and heard during this period, Soya was still a little curious.

"It is said that Miss Noma has four girlfriends in school, from colleagues to students, in all grades."

"how is this possible!"

"Three?"

"not a single one."

There is no follow-up, and the topic of love that was suddenly chatted ended suddenly, because they had already arrived at their destination.

Soya looked out the car window, "Is this the client's house, Mr. Miyagi?"

"probably."

Noma Minami looked for a parking place, "There is no bigger building nearby."

The client's house is quite grand, with walls tens of meters long on one side, tall and neatly built. The wooden house inside looks old, but it is well maintained.

This is the result of people living all the year round, and the typical opposite is the old house of Tongye.

Thinking of this, he looked back, only to find Akane Kirino and Yoshikawa with their heads together, chatting about something.

"Third grade..."

"Hmm... I heard that too..."

...still discussing Minami Noma's girlfriend.

"Is that Miyagi-san?"

Minami Noma, who was next to him, suddenly poked his head out and shouted, making Soya's attention shift to the front again.

Outside the gate of the magnificent mansion, a skinny old man in kimono appeared, about five or sixty years old.

He showed Minami Noma where to park, and then expressed some doubts about her teacher's attire and the four students getting out of the car.

"They are my students and my assistants. Because Mr. Miyagi's Sengoku armor is very important, we didn't waste time changing the costumes, and came here as soon as school was over."

Hearing her mention of her collection, the old man in kimono didn't bother about the issue of the maiden not wearing the maiden uniform, and led them into his mansion.

"What a big house." Akane Kirino whispered as she walked on the slightly dark edge.

The old man, with gray hair but good hearing, looked back at her.

"This is a house that the old family has lived in for generations. It has been renovated several times during the period, and it has a history of more than 300 years."

"I see……"

She responded, waited for the old man to turn his back, looked at Yoshikawa beside him, and stuck out her tongue quietly.

Beside the two of them, Chao Wuling looked around from time to time, showing a rare look of concern.

Akane Kirino stared at the old man in front of her, her voice lowered.

"Does Ling like this kind of old house?"

Shaking his head towards Wuling, he didn't deliberately control his volume.

"Been here before."

"Eh... that's right."

Sure enough, the owner of this house heard it too, and turned around again.

But before he could speak, there was a sudden sound of heavy footsteps in the front room.

Boom, thump, thump, thump!

And that's where he rearranged his collection after the supernatural event.

Then, the sliding door opened without warning, and the Warring States armor he kept came out from inside.

It floats, as if worn on a transparent person.

"Have you seen it!...It must be the heroic soul of the Warring States Period (1467-1615)!"
