Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 353 I have never understood myself so well

"That's probably how things went."

Xia Zhi slowly recounted what happened today. His mouth felt a little dry, but there was no water around him.I wish I had known that when I bought juice for Tachibana Aya, I would have bought a cup myself.

"It seems I have to take the time to train little Mayumi when I get back."

This is the conclusion Tachibana Aya came to after hearing everything Natsuki told. Of course, her unclear words were not understood and responded to by Natsuki, which aroused questions.

"Are we talking about the same thing? Or were you not listening to me just now?"

"Of course it's one thing. But if there are a thousand readers, there are a thousand Hamsters."

"That's the hamster, and the prince's name is Hamlet."

"almost."

It's obviously very different, but for the festoons they should all be the same, it's just about this level.

"Anyway, I already understand this matter. It's basically the wingman showing off his power."

"No, I don't think you understand what I'm talking about at all." Xia Zhi shook his head. Tachibana Aya's mind was probably somewhere else when he was talking to him.

"Well... just pretend that I don't understand. After all, this is one of the joys of my life now." Tachibana Aya didn't care.

Natsuki knew that Aya Tachibana usually had a wide range of knowledge, but here she was a wingman and training, so Natsuki couldn't figure out what she was thinking.Instead of saying what you just said to her again, it would be easier to just assume that she already understands.Anyway, in her current state, no matter how many times she talks, she is probably just playing the piano to others.

"Teacher, I have a question to ask." Tachibana Aya raised her hand.

"what is the problem."

"How far have you and Xiao Lihua progressed?"

"What the hell?"

Xia Zhi looked confused.

Tachibana Aya suddenly realized: "Oh no, I shouldn't ask that. What I want to say is, do you and Xiao Lihua have a good relationship now?"

"They should be considered relatively good friends, right?" Xia Zhi's answer was a little uncertain, because he was really not sure whether what happened at noon today would have any impact on the relationship between the two.

There is a story about the philosophy of life that is very reasonable. The harm a person causes to others is like nails driven into a wooden stake. Even if he apologizes to the other party later because of regrets, he will put these nails into the pile. Even if it is pulled out, the small holes left in the stake will not disappear.

Time flows forward no matter what, and nothing in this world can completely make up for the trauma caused by something that has already happened.

"That's a suspicious tone. By the way, what's the relationship between you and me?"

"Foreign students and people who are being cheated on for no reason." Xia Zhi gave a decisive answer.

???

"Can't you think carefully about your answer? Don't I want to lose face for answering so decisively?"

"If you want to save face, you won't come to my apartment all day long or go to the store to eat."

"Then I don't want to lose face." Tachibana Aya's choice was also very straightforward, which made Xia Zhi realize that eating a meal is actually a more important thing than face.

"I hope you can save some face."

"No." Once you make a decision, you won't be easily shaken. This is one of the advantages of Tachibana Aya.

"By the way, have you made an appointment to go somewhere to play together?"

"Have I ever said anything about this?" Xia Zhi was slightly surprised.Although he had decided to confess, he did not go so far as to confess. Xia Zhi was still quite cautious about matters related to his personal schedule.

"No, I just have a vague feeling like this. After all, I haven't heard anything about your life arrangements since you came back."

"What else can I do? Go to school, work, rest, then go to school, work, rest. Every day is just a repeat of the day before."

"Although I've been trying to find ways to add fun to your life, it's not okay for your days to remain as uneventful as ever."

Speaking of which, isn't the person in front of me the culprit who deprived me of my happy weekend working hours?Although technically this was not her fault alone, it seemed okay to say that she was the culprit.

"Why do I feel like you have some bad thoughts about the weekend benefactor who helped you gain freedom?"

As keen as ever, Xia Zhi withdrew his gaze.

"The topic is too far-fetched. Have you agreed on where to go?" Tachibana Aya blinked: "By the way, I have the ability to read your mind. If you lie to me, I will know it in an instant."

This joke is not funny at all.

"...I actually said that we would go play together, but the location is not up to me, and I don't know where to go."

"You lied to me."

Xia Zhi understood in an instant that the joke, which was not funny at all, was really a joke.

"I really don't know where I'm going." Xia Zhi spread his hands: "Besides, there aren't any fun places in Japan in winter, right?"

"No. If you go this weekend, you can probably catch up with Arashiyama Lantern Street in Kyoto. If you go to Osaka, you can also eat puffer fish hot pot. If you go to Hokkaido, you can also go skiing and eat seafood..." Tachibana Aya pointed her finger at Xia Zhiju example.

"Please wake up, there are only 24 hours in a day." Xia Zhi pulled her out of her unrealistic fantasy.

"If you think about it this way, it seems that I didn't see a lot of things this winter, and I didn't eat a lot of things... What a loss." She glanced at Xia Zhi again: "But I did go to the beach at the end of the year. a while."

"And you also have a cold." Xia Zhi remembered this incident.

"The cold is just a small episode. And I don't think there's anything bad about it. Anyway, I didn't keep the cold until the Chinese New Year."

"It's not anyone else who takes care of you, it's me. I'm the one who buys you medicine, and I'm the one who delivers food." Xia Zhi glared at her: "If you dare to get sick for no reason again, just go to the hospital by yourself. go."

"It's not that I want to get sick." Tachibana Aya defended, and then wanted to change the subject: "So, do you want to go to Kyoto to watch the lanterns together this weekend? Or go to Osaka to eat hot pot? It's quite easy to travel between these cities in Japan. Fast."

"It's impossible, right? I know how far Kyoto is, not to mention that you can't watch the lanterns during the day, right? Is it too late to come back after watching it at night? The same goes for Osaka, which is definitely not as convenient as you said. As for Hokkaido... …Let’s forget it.” The distance from Chiba to Hokkaido is probably the farthest place from Chiba in Japan.

Whether it's Kyoto, Osaka, or Hokkaido, none of these three places are close to Chiba, and a weekend alone is definitely not enough.And even if we go out to play, there won’t be enough time in one day?None of Tachibana Aya's proposals are realistic.

"Then, do you want to go to Narita?" Tachibana Aya had a new idea: "You should know better about Narita. After all, Narita Airport is an international airport, and planes from other countries usually go to Narita first. .”

"I know about this...but I haven't visited it much, because I've been very busy." Even though I have been to many places in the past six months, I was basically given by Shiraishi Lihua or Li Huacai. Even on the school trip, Shiraishi Rika showed her the way around Kyoto.If you were alone... it would be one thing whether you go or not. After all, the travel funds at that time came from the deal with Tachibana Aya.

"Although Narita has a lot of tourists, it is just a relatively ordinary Japanese city. Our goal is to visit the famous temple in the center of Narita, Shinshoji Temple."

Tachibana Aya put the message that she had found on her mobile phone in front of Xia Zhi. Because her hand was shaking, Xia Zhi couldn't see clearly the small words below, but she could still see clearly the typing: Narita Mountain Shinshoji Temple, there is another picture that is not very clear like the small print.

Regardless of whether Xia Zhi saw it clearly or not, Tachibana Aya put the phone back: "Xinshengji Temple is one of the three major temples in Kanto dedicated to Fudo Myooh. It is very large."

"I thought you weren't the type to be interested in things related to history or religion."

"Don't judge people by their appearance. Even though I'm so cute and have a good figure, I'm already interested in things related to history." She still hasn't forgotten the words she used to describe herself. .She looked at her phone and continued: "Furthermore, the Fudo Myooh of Shinshoji Temple seems to have been the eye-opener of Kobo Daishi. He has been famous and widely loved as the Fudo no Lord of Narita since the Edo period. Maybe if you go and make a wish, Can be achieved."

"The true purpose has been exposed." Natsuki reminded kindly, but Tachibana Aya didn't seem to care.

"So let's go together? Narita is very close to Chiba, so it's easy to go back and forth in one day."

"Did you finally remember to ask my opinion?"

"No, I just said that, you must go."

Xia Zhi wanted to swear, but his good upbringing finally made him hold back.

"Besides, we have to call Xiao Lihua and Xiao Liangzi."

"What did you call them for?"

"Of course I invite them to go with me. I asked them to invite me to go shopping with them before, and they had a lot of fun. It's a gift in return. This time we invite them to go and play with us."

"I always feel that this is not your real purpose... What exactly do you want to do?"

Although I don’t think Rika Aya is that bad, being bad and being able to cause trouble are two factors that need to be considered independently. You can understand this by thinking about the painful lessons brought by Ryoko Yamamoto.

"In Japan, it's normal for girls to hang out with girls who play well."

"Is it the same everywhere?"

"Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you. The time has been set for this weekend, let's go out together. If you invite me, it will probably be successful easily. Everything has been planned."

There were too many unclear things in what Tachibana Aya said, and Natsuki had doubts and hesitations about it.

"Don't hesitate any more. The best way to make peace with a girl is to take her to a place she likes, got it? I won't lie to you. A child like Xiao Lihua will definitely like a girl like Shinshoji A place like this.”

Xia Zhi glanced at her slightly surprised.

"Why are you involved in this matter again?"

She put on a mysterious expression and smiled: "Yes, why?"

Xia Zhi subconsciously touched his face, wondering if he had shown an inappropriate expression at an inappropriate time again.This action was seen by Tachibana Aya, and she laughed regardless of the image.

Xia Zhi stared at her: "Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing, nothing. Just thinking, you are much more interesting than anyone I know."

"I guess that's not a compliment."

"This is just a compliment. However, if I see this expression, I will give you a special reminder."

Li Huacai returned to her original appearance again, with the tip of her index finger on her chin, raised her head slightly, and looked at the sky: "Well... if I say this is a girl's little secret, will you accept it?"

Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, obviously he couldn't accept it, but it was not appropriate to get to the bottom of this issue.Tachibana Aya's reaction was much faster: "Okay, it seems you can't accept it, so let's do it. Ahem."

She cleared her throat and put on a more serious expression as if changing her face: "We have been together for so long, can't I still see such a simple thing? What kind of person are you? People, I, or Xiao Lihua probably know very well that we all know what kind of big things you don’t care about, or what kind of small things you care about."

"That's why she is just like me." Tachibana Aya said this with profound meaning. Xia Zhi could not taste what she was implying.

"Compared to most people, you are too good at guessing. If it's an issue that you think is fine, but someone still doesn't care, you won't let it go. If it's something that others think is fine, but you don't I will still be worried about this or that thing. If it were you, if it was something you didn't care about, how could you remember it so deeply and then use it to seek other people's opinions?" Tachibana Aya spread her hands: "Although You didn’t mention it directly, but doesn’t it have this meaning in telling everything that happened?”

Xia Zhi feels very strange now.If someone interprets it like this, there is a sense of shame as if someone took away the clothes one by one.Xia Zhi, who was originally not rich in rhetoric and language, could only think of one sentence to ease his embarrassment.Tachibana Aya laughed again after hearing this.

"I've never understood myself that well."
