Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 275

After getting off the plane, Xia Zhi took out his mobile phone and turned off the airplane mode. After just a few seconds, the mobile phone resumed communication. Although the signal was still not very good, it was enough to make a call.

I rummaged through the contacts and quickly found Tachibana Aya. It was not because the name was particularly conspicuous, but simply because there were not many contacts in this phone. Finding a needle in a haystack was difficult. I wanted to find it with just five fingers. It's not that difficult to pull out a certain finger.

After two beeps, the call was connected immediately. Xia Zhi suspected that she was playing with her phone just now.

"Hey, hey, this is Tachibana Aya, who are you looking for?"

"Stop pretending, I got off the plane, where are you?"

"You can see me from the front."

"understood."

Xia Zhi walked forward holding his suitcase. This was probably the second time he walked through this passage. The last time he was alone, he was unfamiliar with the place and had no one to rely on. He was extremely panicked inside. Now it's finally better, I can find one or two people who will pick me up at the airport in this place.

But when Xia Zhi walked to the exit of the passage, his whole expression collapsed.No wonder Tachibana Aya said, "You can see me from the front." Natsuki hadn't stepped out yet. Although it wasn't exactly a sea of ​​people outside, there were quite a few people picking her up. However, there was such a person People appear especially, especially conspicuously.

There was nothing strange about her. She was wearing a thick sky blue coat on her upper body and slim jeans on her lower body that made her legs look long and slender. She looked as eye-catching as if she were a well-known star.But that's not the point, the point is that she's actually holding a sign that makes Xia Zhi feel extremely uncomfortable.

How uncomfortable is this brand?It is about one meter high and two meters long. It has a white background. The perimeter of the sign is covered with flowers made of decorative colored paper. In the middle are two large Chinese characters mixed with various colors that Xia Zhi cannot fail to recognize - —Xia Zhi.

The key is that there was a circle of people watching the sign she held. Some were commenting on the sign, and some even took photos directly, which might be uploaded to social networking sites in a few seconds. .And she didn't think there was anything wrong at all, holding up such a sign and waving it somewhere.

Xia Zhi didn't dare to go there for fear of ruining his reputation, so he stopped and put the scarf he had taken off because it was a little hot on the plane back around it. He also pulled it up a little higher to cover his face, and just mingled in it. The crowd was walking outside.But Tachibana Aya is not that simple. She took advantage of her height to spot a shady person at a glance, and then instantly recognized her true identity.

The moment he put the waving sign down, Xia Zhi knew that Tachibana Aya had seen him, so he hurriedly quickened his pace and wanted to get out of the airport.Tachibana quickly approached while shouting "Let's go", and finally blocked Xia Zhi in front of the airport exit.

"How rude! You obviously saw me!" Tachibana Aya asked standing in front of Xia Zhi.

"Who are you? I don't know you. Have you recognized the wrong person? Please let me pass." Xia Zhi didn't give up. He just wanted to sneak out of the airport before being watched by everyone. Why was it so difficult?

You should have told Tachibana Aya not to let her come to the airport in the first place!
"I'll get angry if you keep doing this." Tachibana Aya crossed her hands and stared at Xia Zhi.

There were all the onlookers around him. Xia Zhi knew that his actions had been exposed and that he was being watched beyond imagination, so he pulled down the scarf covering his face, revealing his original face, and then held his hand with one hand. Suitcase, holding Tachibana Ayai with one hand and hurried out of the airport.

Outside the airport, there were finally not that many people. Xia Zhi found a place to put his suitcase, put it on his waist and looked at Tachibana Aya helplessly: "Okay, I'll give you three minutes to tell you what this thing is." What's going on?" Xia Zhi pointed to the sign that Li Huacai was still holding in his hand.

"Oh, you're talking about this. I made this at home yesterday. Does it look good?" Tachibana Aya picked up the sign again and was about to wave it again. Xia Zhi didn't dare to let her continue to do this. He went down and reached out to take the sign.

"If you keep making trouble, I'll break this sign."

"Did you even break the sign with your name on it? Are you a devil?"

"You are the devil!"

This sign was fixed and there were no parts that could be removed. Tachibana Aya probably brought it with him all the way. Xia Zhi felt dizzy when he thought of this.Throwing it to her again, Xia Zhi pulled up the lever of the suitcase: "Anyway, let's go back first."

"Why don't you go get something to eat first?"

"It's only three o'clock in the afternoon. Lunch has already passed. Dinner is still very early. Let's have something to eat. Let's go." On the way back to the apartment from the airport, Xia Zhi still knew each other, so he didn't let Tachibana Aya lead the way. Walking in front, Tachibana Aya hurried up behind holding a sign.

"Speaking of which, where are the things I asked you to buy for me?"

"Well, leave it at home. I can give it to you when I go back later. Anyway, it's easier to get back to my house from here."

"It was a great help. I will pay you back how much it cost."

"I don't particularly care about this little money, how about you just convert it into my food expenses?" Tachibana Aya said this without thinking. It was obvious that she had already considered this issue in advance: "Rough calculation If you do the math, it only takes a month."

"...I don't have any objection, but didn't you just eat in the store? Strictly speaking, I didn't pay you back."

"Hehe, I've thought about it. Let's count it as 30 days in a month. If I go to your house for dinner once a week, then count it as one day. I only need to go to your house and have dinner thirty times."

"I will find a way to pay back the money I owe you first."

Go crazy.Go 210 times, once a week, isn't that [-] days?More than half of the year is gone, and the price of this scarf is too great.If you can’t afford it, you can’t afford it.

"You're so stingy... Then you'll be fine for a month, and you'll make a lot of money. But I hope I can eat delicious food."

"Let's talk... I'm exhausted. First I took the high-speed rail, then I took the plane, and I have to clean up when I go back. There are a lot of things to do. Don't come to trouble me today. I guess it will take until evening to finish it." ”

"Cleaning? I can help!"

"No, I will never let you help clean up even if I die."

???

Tachibana Aya heard the sarcasm in Natsuki's words.

"I'm very good at cleaning, okay?"

"Do you think I haven't seen you cleaning? Just forget it and leave."

"Hey!"

Along the way, I took the subway and the light rail, and it didn’t change much from what I had in mind.It's just a fifteen-day vacation, and there's nothing that can make a big difference.

Natsuki dragged his suitcase and walked side by side with Tachibana Aya. After walking for a while, he finally saw the high-end apartment building where Tachibana Aya lived again. Fifteen days later, it still exuded this expensive atmosphere, and It seems that because the Chinese New Year just happened a few days ago, there are some festive decorations at the entrance and exit on the first floor of this building.Although Natsuki doesn't know why they put a large Kumamoto bear at the gate... isn't this the mascot of Kumamoto Prefecture?

Chiba's mascot shouldn't be... It shouldn't be... What is Chiba's mascot?

"Hey, Tachibana, what is the mascot of Chiba Prefecture?"

"Mascot? Of course it is Chiba-kun. Don't you even know this? Are you really from Chiba?" Li Huacai accused Xia Zhi.

"So I'm not anymore... By the way, what does this Chiba-kun look like? I don't think I've seen it before."

"It's very cute." As a native of Chiba, Aya Tachibana tried her best to show the beautiful side of Chiba. She took out her phone and clicked it. After a while, Xia Zhi saw a A red creature that appears on the Tachibana screen.

"Cute is pretty cute... What kind of creature is this? Is this a dog?" Xia Zhi said that he couldn't tell the true identity of Chiba-kun.Chiba's dogs are indeed quite famous, and there is a dog breed named after Chiba that is particularly pleasing, although Xia Zhi may prefer Akita dogs.

"What are you talking about? How could Chiba-kun be a dog?"

"Huh? It's not a dog... Could it be a fox? Are there any famous foxes in Qianye?" Xia Zhi was confused.

"Chiba-kun is Chiba-kun, neither a dog nor a fox."

"What's the explanation that I am me, not you and not it... So, Chiba-kun is not actually a mascot created based on a certain animal?"

"Of course, the only one who can be named Chiba is Chiba!" Tachibana Aya scrolled down on her phone. Xia Zhi also understood where Chiba-kun came from and why Chiba-kun was the This is it.

Is there actually a mascot created based on geographical contours?Is it such a coincidence that the outlines of the two shapes look like a creature that looks like both a dog and a fox?Isn’t this too real?

"...Is Chiba-kun's designer lazy?"

"How is it possible? This is the best design. Look at the Kumamoto Bear from Kumamoto Prefecture. Apart from the name, does it have anything to do with Kumamoto Prefecture? Chiba-kun is a super popular mascot born in Chiba Prefecture. How can that stupid bear be compared with Chiba-kun?" Tachibana Aya explained with her waist in her mouth.

"Okay, I'm afraid you'll get beaten if you keep talking, so let's forget it. Besides, you have such a Kumamon doll downstairs. It's a shame you can still say such things."

"...Because this building was built by a real estate developer in Kumamoto Prefecture."

This is quite reasonable.

"Wait for me here for a while, and I'll go upstairs to get you something."

"Go ahead, I'm just taking a break."

Although he doesn't live here, Xia Zhi is very grateful for the benches placed nearby for people to rest. Although he doesn't know if they were put there during the construction of this building, it's nice to be able to rest for a while. Not bad.

Today's Chiba, or this area of ​​the apartment, is still very calm, and no one can be seen. Either they have gone to other places to play, or they have stayed at home to keep warm. It is not difficult to guess.After all, classes will start again tomorrow. If you don't take the time to play, you won't have much time to play by then.

Natsuki rested for a while, and Tachibana Aya quickly ran out of the apartment holding a box: "This is it. Although I don't know why even the scarf has a brand, but the packaging looks pretty good. for you."

"How should I get it now..." Xia Zhi held the Tachibana Aya sign in one hand and pulled the suitcase with the other.As for why she didn't take the sign back to her apartment, she said that there was no room for it in her room anymore, so she gave it to Xia Zhi as a souvenir.

Xia Zhi refused at first, but he finally agreed after not being able to withstand Li Huacai's soft and hard palate.

"That's it. I'll take it then. I'm going to your house to play anyway."

"You're not allowed to play. I have a lot of things to do and I don't have time to play with you."

"It's so heartless. Then I can go over and wait for dinner. I haven't had a normal dinner for many days, so you have to take responsibility."

"What does this have to do with me? How can you still rely on me if you don't eat dinner?"

What kind of unnatural operation is this?

"It's all because of you that I can no longer eat a ready-made bento properly. I feel that even the cup noodles I made taste better than a ready-made bento. I haven't had a good meal in more than ten days."

"Apologise to the bento maker! How could the instant noodles you made taste better than the bento? You lied!"

"I... I'm just giving an example. This is an exaggerated technique. Didn't your teacher teach you?" Li Huacai stared back at Xia Zhi not to be outdone.

"I won't argue with you about this. You haven't eaten properly for more than ten days. How did you survive?"

"Instant curry, cup noodles, instant curry, cup noodles, instant curry, dumplings, steamed buns, ramen, cup noodles, instant curry, instant curry..." Tachibana Aya counted on her fingers, and Natsuki didn't even know it. I can't bear to listen any more.

"Are you too useless? At least learn to cook some simple dishes by yourself. You are still so picky."

"Can you really blame me?" Tachibana Aya shouted: "Who said girls must be able to cook, cook and clean? This is no longer the ignorant and ignorant era in the past."

"Please wake up, this is the most basic skill that everyone should master regardless of gender, right?" Xia Zhi emphasized the pronunciation of the most basic words "human" and "human", making the specificity clear at a glance.

"Hmph, that's all I have to do anyway." Tachibana Aya snorted, holding the box in her hand and walking towards Xia Zhi's apartment.

Xia Zhiyao shook his head and followed.
