I'm a ghost story witch in Tokyo

Chapter 21 21. Hot Spring Mantou
thump thump-

thump thump-

A vigorous heart beat wildly.It's not the acceleration caused by encountering something fearful, maybe it's caused by tension.She is a simple person, so long that she has never touched a girl's hand before, so nervousness is inevitable.

The biggest problem is not that the heart beats too fast, but that the eyes don't know where to put them.

Looking directly at the body of this witch who has just met for less than two hours in the bathtub, he will feel guilty for taking advantage of others.In this life, the visual acuity of both eyes has been 5.0, and I can see everything clearly without the hopeless hazy feeling after taking off my glasses.

Seeing Yue take the initiative to move to where she was, Rui Ji had no choice but to say "I'm sorry".

"It's okay, I'm watching you too."

Yue's answer was straightforward.

Moreover, she was really looking at Rui Ji's body soaked in the water, and she never moved her eyes away.

"We're all witches, and they're all women of the same age. What's there to be shy about taking a bath together? Your face is as red as a boiled lobster."

"You... always speak so directly?"

Originally, Rui Ji wanted to prevaricate with the excuse that the temperature of the water was too high and his face became abnormal.This guy directly blocked the road, leaving others speechless.

Although honesty is not a bad thing, it can occasionally hurt other people's face.

"Yes. What's wrong with speaking directly? I don't like people who beat around the bush and make excuses in different ways. They are often complained about because they don't know how to adapt and have no friends around them."

Yue showed no displeasure or sadness about this.She took down a tray from the shore, which contained two light green glass bottles, and a beautiful square carton beside it.

"Would you like to come?"

"Why are you still eating it? What if you are poisoned to death?"

Rui Ji clearly remembered that these things were placed on the shelves in the hotel lobby - plum sake and hot spring steamed buns.Will there be no health problems if you take the things in the ghost story so boldly?

Even kindergarten children understand the principle of not being able to eat casually, but this witch, who may be a bit off-line, obviously ignores this point.

"Intuition tells me that these things can be eaten."

Yue completely disregarded dissuasion and opened the outer package of hot spring steamed buns.This is a wagashi dessert exclusively produced in Asahina Town. It is commonly found in hot spring hotels in Japan. Some are also placed in each room for guests to try.

If the guests like it, they will buy some from the owner of the hot spring hotel as a souvenir when they leave.

The shape of hot spring steamed buns is roughly oval, with patterns drawn with bean paste on it. The fillings are similar to Chinese glutinous rice cakes. There are red beans, chestnuts and glutinous rice fillings, as well as classic peanut and bean paste fillings.

Refreshing and delicious sake with hot spring steamed buns is also a good enjoyment.

"The taste of this stuff is really good, and it's different from the ordinary wagashi shops on the streets of Japan. The hot spring steamed buns sold in Shibuya's online celebrity shop have a rough taste, and the fillings are also shoddy, and they sell well. It’s very expensive, and you dare to ask for 9 yen for a box of 2000 pieces, it’s crazy about money.”

Rui Ji thought about it carefully, only to realize that what she complained about was a shop called Shimogawara Dim Sum near Seibu Department Store in Shibuya District.The typical ones are expensive and unpalatable, calling it an online celebrity shop is a disgusting derogatory term.

The witch next to her held the hot spring steamed bun with her pink lips, and then, the tip of her tongue swept over the corner of her mouth that was covered with stuffing. It wasn't elegant to eat, but it looked appetizing, and there was an ambiguous sense of beauty.

Yue looks very much like a lazy and greedy British shorthair cat, licking lips is one of the common movements of cats.Her hair color is also similar to some varieties of British short hair, and the more she looks, the more she looks like it.

According to legend, the favorite pets of British witches are cats, and everyone has one or several.

After disposing of half a box of hot spring steamed buns, Yue used magic to pry open the bottle cap, facing the mouth of the bottle, there was a ton of tons, as heroic as a witch from Russia.

As a well-known fighting nation in Russia, witches have the highest drinking capacity in the world. If they can't kill 10 bottles of eau-de-vie in a row, that witch will be ridiculed by others and will not be able to hold her head up in front of other witches.

The alcohol content of Japanese plum sake is between 10-20%, which is acceptable to ordinary people.

"I said, Miss Yue, are you still a high school student? I remember that high school students can't drink casually. If you drink more than ten degrees of alcohol, you will get drunk. Drinking is a mistake, and now I am worried that you will be arrested by ghosts. Walk."

Throughout the ages, witches have been targeted by strange stories because they were drunk, and many witches disappeared in the end. Some alcohol rehabilitation institutions often use these counterexamples to stimulate the sense of crisis in witches suffering from alcohol addiction, so as to achieve the goal of alcohol abstinence.

"Guai Tan cannot enter this hot spring hotel."

Yue gulped down the whole bottle in one breath, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction, no different from the elderly social animal uncle in the izakaya.

This was the first time she didn't have that paralyzed face, although she still looked quite paralyzed.

In front of Rui Ji, Yue pried open the second bottle of plum sake.

"The shimenawa around the hot spring hotel is suspected to be a barrier set up by a witch who has been here before. The shimenawa plays a role in blocking evil and filthy things, and the things inside are also safe."

"So, you knew from the beginning?"

"Otherwise, how dare I bring you here? You are the only living normal witch I met in the ghost story. A companion in times of adversity is a very precious resource."

"To be honest, your appearance is quite infuriating. Why do high school witches know so much?"

I don't know if it's out of envy or something else, Rui Ji feels very bad suddenly being led by the nose by a female high school student.In the traditional time travel, the traveler came to an era that did not belong to him, and used the knowledge of his previous life to "kill the world" and become famous.

The witch's world line is reversed. Apart from the life knowledge accumulated in the previous life, the traverser may be useful, and all other fields need to be overthrown and relearned.

In the face of this crazy era, the traversers are so small.Facts have proved that no matter which world you go to, a wealth of knowledge can become a weapon to dominate one side.

As if to prove her courage and determination, Rui Ji also opened a hot spring steamed bun, biting it down with a heroic attitude.The mouthfeel is soft and glutinous, the filling in the middle flows out from the broken gap, and the strong aroma of sesame jumps on the tip of the tongue.

Eating sweets can make the body produce a substance called dopamine, which can make the body and mind feel happy and relaxed.

"Do you want to have two more? Anyway, it's free. If you don't eat it, you won't eat it for nothing."

Yue didn't go into details about herself, and cleverly avoided Rui Ji's questions.

The rest of the time was spent soaking in hot springs and enjoying the specialties in the hot spring hotel. In the blink of an eye, it was 1:[-] in the morning.
