Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 220

When school was over that day, Xia Zhicai finally understood why he had been so busy in the past six months, and also understood that all of this was ultimately his own fault. It was tantamount to saying that he had brought it upon himself and could not blame others.why.It's very simple, because I just said yesterday that I was going to buy a heating device, but Tachibana Aya, who was not the biggest beneficiary, stood in front of the gate of Xia Zhi School during the afternoon of the next day, and she was even more so. Wearing that cross-dressing outfit that I just saw yesterday.

"Why are you here?"

"Of course I want to buy a kotatsu! As the saying goes, buy early and enjoy early. If the weather gets colder after a while, the price of kotatsu will rise steadily. This is a little wisdom in life. "

"Who asked you this? Ah? What I'm asking is, why are you here." Xia Zhi stood at the school gate, curled up his hand holding the backpack, and pointed to the ground: "Why are you here in this same place all over Japan?" At this moment after school, you are standing in front of the gate of my school? Still wearing such clothes, even if a cat-shaped robot from the future opens a random door for you, it can't be so fast, right!?"

Natsuki's questioning voice gradually became louder, and the doorman Takeda, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, was also attracted by the voice and saw Tachibana Aya in casual clothes.This person should not be from this school. Takeda made a judgment in his heart and was about to come up and ask her about her identity.This is all to fulfill their accusations and protect the students of the school.

The sharp-eyed Tachibana Aya looked past Natsuchi and saw Takeda who was about to walk out of the guard room. He shouted "We'll talk about it later!", then grabbed Natsuchi's hand and ran away quickly.The moment he turned around and opened the door, it disappeared. Takeda looked at the empty school gate and couldn't help but rub his eyes...

On the other side, Natsuki, who was out of breath after being dragged by Tachibana Aya, stood panting in front of a street that was not unfamiliar but not familiar either. Tachibana Aya wiped the non-existent sweat on her forehead: "Phew, I finally escaped, otherwise I would be mistaken for a suspicious person again."

"You...huhu...you guy...huhu...what are you looking like...huh...are you a monster?"

Xia Zhi really didn't expect that a person could actually run so fast while pulling another oil bottle. If Xia Zhi hadn't always walked to school and had some foundation, he would have been beaten halfway through. Cai dragged it on the ground and walked away.This is too terrible.

"How rude. I helped you escape from that guard, otherwise you would have become a suspicious person in your school."

"Don't mention it, that guard knows me. He knows that I will be the first one to come out of school every day. If you pull me out like this, I'm worried that he will call the police and say that I have been kidnapped!"

Tachibana Aya opened her mouth and looked at Xia Zhi: "How come even the school guard knows you? Are you also a campus idol?"

"Are you stupid? I am the only international student in this school!"

International students are not uncommon in universities, but in high schools, international students are definitely a rarer creature.Moreover, the school that Xia Zhi attends is just an ordinary private high school with no special characteristics - oh, the rather special school trip should be considered a special feature, but that doesn't matter at all.

"So, why are you at the gate of my school? Or at this time after class."

"Oh, um, I'm sick."

"……what?"

Tachibana Aya's plain tone confused Natsuki.He looked up and down at Tachibana Aya, and ran at high speed for nearly a minute without even breathing. If this could be considered a sick state, Xia Zhi felt that he might be at the level of a sick person.

"Who are you lying to? Are you telling me that you are sick?"

"Didn't you ask me why I'm here? I answered you."

Tachibana Aya spread her hands. Xia Zhi didn't think about it for a while. After taking a moment, he realized the meaning of what Tachibana Aya said.

"Did you pretend to be sick and skip class?"

"Don't put it in such a bad way," Tachibana Aya's eyebrows raised: "I'm really sick. I think I have a little cold now."

"What do you think?" Xia Zhi held on to Tachibana Aya's excuse.

"Really, girls will hate you if you are so fussy. Especially me."

"I... cough cough."

Xia Zhi didn't take a breath and started coughing again.Tachibana patted his back.

"You are really weak. Do you want to get up and run with me in the morning?"

"no need!"

Xia Zhi glared at her.

"Then, why did you bring me here?"

"Huh? Do you still need to say it? Of course I came here for the kotatsu. Didn't I just say it at the gate of your school? Are your ears not working well? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Tachibana Aya spoke one thing after another, and Natsuhi couldn't cope with it in the normal conversation mode, so Natsuhi didn't seem to be able to cope with it, and just ignored most of her words and intercepted the useful parts.

"Now? How can just a few minutes be enough? I have work to do later."

Moreover, Tachibana Aya dragged her away for a long time, and the place she ran to was a place similar to a large shopping mall near the school, but it was a store that tended to sell large-ticket items, and not many people would come there usually.Usually it is adults or those who are buying furniture for their own homes who come here to take a look.Natsuki in school uniform and Tachibana Aya in casual clothes looked out of place at the entrance of this street.

"In that case, you don't have to worry." Aya Tachibana took out her cell phone, held it up in front of Xia Zhi, and made a loud declaration: "I have taken care of everything for you!"

Tachibana Aya's hand kept shaking, and Xia Zhi didn't see it clearly at all. He patted her to stop her from moving. When he saw the contents of the phone clearly, Xia Zhi fell into a state of "fuck".There is nothing weird on it, it is the chat record between her and the store manager on the chat software.

Tachibana Aya: Store manager!

Store Manager: What’s wrong?
Tachibana Aya: Lend me Natsuki for a day!I want to go out on a date with him!

Store manager:!Go for it!Tell Xia Zhi that he doesn't need to come over today!
What the hell!

Holy shit!Holy shit!
"Asshole! What have you done!"

Xia Zhi felt that he was going crazy.

Originally, I was in a state of being wildly misunderstood by others, but Tachibana Aya came to add fuel to the fire. Isn't this trying to kill Xia Zhi?
"What does it matter? If you don't say that, the store manager probably won't let him go, and I'll have to stay cold in your house for many days. I don't want it."

"If you feel cold, just stay at home and turn on the air conditioner. Don't force yourself to come over..." Xia Zhi had almost lost the strength to speak.

"Don't be so downcast, young man. Think on the bright side, you will have your own kotatsu from today on."

"The price is too high, I can't bear it..."

"What else are you dissatisfied with about dating a beautiful girl?" Tachibana Aya glanced at Natsuki with disdain.

"Let's not talk about dating or not... As a beautiful girl, you are the only one who can say that you are a beautiful girl."

Xia Zhi sighed.There is no point in being angry, the most important thing is how to recover the losses.Moreover, as Tachibana Aya says, buy early and enjoy early... Things like kotatsu are quite attractive to people who have never been exposed to them.

"Is there really a kotatsu here?" Xia Zhi expressed doubts.

"There are no specialty stores for kotatsu. They are basically sold in relatively large furniture shopping malls. Moreover, because there are all such stores here, the prices are not very high. There are also stores that lower the prices in order to increase sales, and the quality is also They are all very good. It would be a pity if you don’t take a look, after all, prices will really rise in a while.”

"The kotatsu is not a consumable item. Even if the price increases in winter, it won't be too outrageous, right?"

"NONONO," Tachibana Aya shook her finger: "Although the kotatsu is very durable, the price will rise even more because of this. If it is not stored properly, the service life will be shortened, but the sales volume of kotatsu is very high in winter. Yes. Moreover, the price of the kotatsu has been raised very high, and I still wonder if someone is controlling the price of the kotatsu to make a profit.”

What Tachibana Aya said was obviously beyond Xia Zhi's understanding. Although he was confused, he still understood what Tachibana Aya wanted to express: If you don't buy it now, you will suffer.That's probably what it means.

"Okay, okay, tell me something I can understand. Which store to go to? Do you have an idea?"

"No!" Tachibana Aya replied categorically: "Have you seen that I have a kotatsu or something like that at home? I rented the bed and air conditioner together with the apartment, so there is no need for me to buy a kotatsu."

???

"Then who gave you the confidence to take me to buy a good quality and cheap kotatsu? Is it a super power?"

"Hmph, even if I haven't bought it before. But there has never been anyone who tried to trick me into buying low-quality furniture."

Although Tachibana Aya said something that seemed very powerful, Natsuki, who did not trust her, easily discovered the flaw in her words.

"In other words, you haven't bought any furniture at all, right?"

"……How did you know."

Xia Zhi no longer wanted to say anything more to her, it was completely unnecessary.I originally expected her to take it with me to buy it, but now it seems that it is obviously more reliable to choose it myself.When it comes to home, this person only takes advantage of language to make big claims, but has no real substance at all.

"Wait a minute! We go from store to store and we will always find the right kotatsu. I read in TV dramas and novels that this is how others buy things."

In other words, she basically watches romance-oriented TV series and novels that are not suitable for students.Because, except for dating, Xia Zhi couldn't think of any other combination besides family members where a man and a woman would look at products in a home furnishing store.

Moreover, it is still based on marriage.

Xia Zhi forced herself to ignore this and began to browse in the store.

　The exam is cool...
