Chapter 188 Arakawa

The third day after the Sky Lock incident ended.

It's sunny and the autumn is crisp.

Along the Arakawa River, there is a large green grassland in front of you. Tourists in twos and threes are walking and playing on it. In the distance, there is a railway bridge painted sky blue across the blue river.

Hui Yuanchu was looking at this scene in trance, letting himself go.

Suddenly, a task prompt popped up in front of him.

[Daily Task 1/3: Arrive at the Yomikibashi Arakawa Green Space in Sumida District between [-] a.m. and [-]:[-] a.m.]

Next, a landscape sketched by colored pencils briefly appeared in front of Hui Yuanchu.The scene depicted in the picture is - grassland, Arakawa, and sky-blue railway bridge.

[Daily Task 2/3: Find a location where you can see the scene on the screen. 】

...It was exactly the scenery that was unfolding in front of Hui Yuanchu's eyes right now, even the angle had not changed.

Moreover, the current time is exactly ten thirty.

Therefore, almost at the same time that the task was displayed, these two lines of text were marked with the word "completed".

[Daily Task 1/3: (Completed)]

[Daily Task 2/3: (Completed)]

It's not so much that he accomplished his mission as that he was fulfilled.

After waiting for a while, the prompt for the third daily task was indeed refreshed.

[Daily Task 3/3: Move thirty steps south from the location where Daily Task 2/3 is completed, and look for the “lost paper airplane”. 】

So Hui Yuanchu moved and started to act according to the instructions.

After arriving at the designated location, he lowered his head, scanned carefully for a moment, and quickly found the target.As expected, a colorful paper airplane was hidden in the grass inconspicuously, with its nose touching the toe of his shoe.

Hui Yuanchu bent down and picked up this particularly long and narrow paper airplane, carefully took it apart and flattened it again.

Spreading the recovered paper from the paper airplane on the palm of his hand and continuing to smooth out the traces, Haiyuan curled his lips - the "flower paper" folded into the paper airplane was actually a two thousand yen note.

[Daily Task 3/3: (Completed)]

Immediately, the third task was also marked with the word "Completed", and then the entire record slowly disappeared.

Hui Yuanchu had long been accustomed to this kind of situation, so he stuffed the banknotes back into his pocket without any surprise.

Although there are three daily tasks refreshed every day, the system feeds Xiao Hui... No, the total amount of subsidy seems to be fixed, about [-] yen, which is enough for him to eat three meals a day.

Therefore, in today's situation where one task has reached the upper limit of feeding, the other two tasks are almost just making up the numbers.

Anyway, to Hui Yuanchu, it simply means one thing - that is, today's lunch and dinner are settled again.

Well, I'm hungry too...

However, the reason why Haiyuan appeared on the Arakawa River on this beautiful weekend morning was not because of his own wishes.

He was brought here.

Naturally, it is not up to him to decide whether or when to leave. ·

While thinking about what to eat for lunch, Hui Yuanchu walked towards the river, preparing to ask the person who made the decision.

In the distance, on the grass near the river, there is a pine sketch stand. The girl who has the final say is standing in front of the drawing board, concentrating on painting.

The upper body is wearing a hooded sweatshirt, the lower body is wearing cropped pants and sneakers, and even the long hair is tied into a bun behind the head.

——However, this person who looks like a high school student studying art is indeed Oruru Aoi.

It's just that the way he dresses is different, his whole demeanor changes and he becomes a completely different person.

If in the past, the original impression given to Hui Yuan by Zhelu Aoi was elegant but heavy, like a bloody marble Venus statue that had crushed someone to death... But today's appearance is full of youth and art. A transparent ordinary girl.Therefore, when they met earlier today, Zhe Lukui's attire caused Hui Yuanchu to be stunned for a moment.

Oroku Aoi was carrying a shoulder bag, put her hands in the pockets of her sweatshirt, and glanced at him with her head tilted.

Then, like the best hunter, he sniffed out and caught him in an instant: "Prefer skirts?"

Hui Yuanchu slightly looked away, but Yao was unwilling to lie for the sake of face: "Yes."

Zhe Lukui glanced at her with disdain: "You don't like skirts but stockings, right?"

"..." Hui Yuanchu was silent for a moment, and then admitted with some heaviness, "...Yeah."

Orokui sighed heavily, and her tone changed from contempt to a kind of pity: "Actually, it's not about stockings, but you like legs?"

But the moment he realized that Zhe Lukui was pitiful about him, Hui Yuanchu suddenly felt that his mind was empty, as if he had suddenly crossed a certain boundary and entered a new realm, and his whole person felt relaxed.

It didn't matter if he was shameless, he just nodded like a fool: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Seeing his appearance, Zhe Lukui frowned and raised her forehead.

"But occasionally, I want to wear some clothes that make me feel relaxed..." She exhaled and firmly refused, "Anyway, not today, because I don't want to go back and change clothes again."

Hui Yuan did not regret it for long.

Because later, he soon discovered that Zhe Lukui's appearance was not bad.

Although it is different from his usual style, there are still many shining points with freshness.

——For example, at this time, when Haiyuan approached Zhe Lukui from behind, his eyes were most attracted to two parts of her body:

Between the cropped pants and sneakers are the slender lower legs and ankles.

And because the long hair is tied up, the entire elegant line of the nape starting from the hairline behind the ears is fully exposed when viewed from behind.

There's no need to be rude and keep staring.But because every place he glanced at would bring Hui Yuanchu a happy mood as if he had taken a sip of milk tea.

He just walked closer and found that the painting on the drawing board had begun to take shape.

It was a simple black and white pencil sketch, depicting the river in front of me and the bridge in the distance.

But compared to precise lines, Zhe Lukui prefers to use large areas of rough and thick lines to create the light and dark effects of large areas.

Although many of the iconic lines in the scenery in front of him were not completely similar and were even ignored, the overall impression of light and shadow instantly jumped into Hui Yuanchu's mind, even faintly replacing the original picture.

"It's really good..." Hui Yuanchu praised, "Have you ever taken any professional courses?"

"Professional... I don't know if it counts as a professional, it's all what my mother taught me." Zulu Kui held the pencil horizontally and was arranging the lines attentively, and answered casually.

After a moment, she seemed to suddenly realize the conversation that had just occurred. Her face stiffened for unknown reasons, and the movements of her hands also stopped.

Then, Zhe Lukui sighed deeply, and suddenly tore off the whole drawing paper and crumpled it into a ball.

"Thanks to you, the good mood of finally relaxing is gone." She turned her head and glanced at Hui Yuanchu before saying a few words.

Then, obviously not intending to go any further on this topic, Orokuchi immediately changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "But it doesn't matter, anyway, my original purpose was not really to sketch."

...Although I don't know if you really have any "original purpose", looking at the way you were completely immersed in painting just now, you must have completely forgotten about it.

Hui Yuan complained in his heart, but of course he did not dare to say it out loud.

On the surface, he still agreed obediently: "So, what are we doing here?"

Zhe Lukui lifted the easel and turned it 180 degrees, then signaled Hui Yuanchu not to move, but walked behind the easel herself.Then, she turned her back to Arakawa and started painting again on the next piece of paper, using Haihara as the model.

While concentrating on writing, her eyes switched back and forth between the drawing paper and Hui Yuanchu, she said: "...Of course it is a routine explanation of the situation and a discussion of our follow-up actions."
