Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 361 I Just Listen to the Voice

"Show me! I want it!"

Tachibana Aya stopped Natsuki in the aisle and shouted. The three dolls she was holding in her hands made her look a little funny.And for some reason, the people next to her were looking sideways. Xia Zhi felt that Tachibana Aya was a little too excited, so he reached out and held her down.

"Don't make trouble, let's talk about it when we go back."

Then for some reason, Xia Zhi felt that more eyes were looking at him, and there was a feeling that he didn't know how to express.Xia Zhi looked around suspiciously, and then everyone who was originally gathered around quickly left.

What are they doing?Xia Zhi had doubts similar to this.

Regardless of what they were doing, Xia Zhi felt that he had to deal with Tachibana Aya first.

"I just want to see what kind of things are in this box."

"Then we can't dismantle it now, right? Be honest and talk about it when you get back."

"Hey, stingy."

Tachibana walked in front of Xia Zhi with her puppets around her. From this place to the school gate and then back to the apartment, it would be the same way, but Xia Zhi still had some things to do.

"Tachibana, wait for me."

"Huh? What's wrong? Have you decided to show it to me? Even if you ask for my forgiveness now, I will not forgive you. However, if you can apologize sincerely..."

"Take it and wait for me here for a while. I'll go back to the classroom and get my bag."

Natsuki hung the bag with the carton on Tachibana Aya's hand.

"If I come back later and see you opening the cardboard box for me, you will die...forget it, your meal tonight will be gone. Do you understand?"

After finishing speaking, Natsuki walked towards the front of the teaching building, leaving Tachibana Aya in a dazed state.

"Damn it, how dare you do this to me." Tachibana Aya raised her handle, feeling the burden that the board game set brought to her, and curled her lips unhappily: "If there is no delicious food tonight, I will never forgive you. your."

As he spoke, he felt amused that he had made such a simple condition, and laughed to himself.He found a nearby bench, put all the puppets aside, and held the box of the board game set in his hand, shaking it gently.Although it said not to open it, it didn't say not to shake it and listen to the sound, so this should be okay, right?
Tachibana shook the box while listening to the sound, guessing what was in it, took this as entertainment, and happily played alone.

Xia Zhi, on the other hand, walked in from the main entrance of the teaching building and came to the classroom again.It was a little late now, and there were not many guests in the classroom. Qingfeng Tentong and several people were even chatting softly there, and even said hello when they saw Xia Zhi coming in.

"Yo, did you have fun?"

"It's okay." Xia Zhi nodded.As far as this day is concerned, although there are many things that have not been dealt with, it is indeed quite fulfilling. There are magic performances and music performances, and I also witnessed a cooking competition, or played the question-yourself game of pitching and pot throwing, and The haunted house that he and Tachibana Aya completed by skipping levels... seemed to be a bit too full today.

"That's good. It's almost time to go back. You can go back today and we will take care of the rest."

"no problem?"

"Of course there is no problem at all. If there had been a problem we wouldn't be standing here chatting."

makes sense.Xia Zhi nodded again: "Then I'll go back today?"

"Go back. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you something." Qingfeng seemed to suddenly remember something, and patted his forehead, but Xia Zhi always felt like the sound of him patting his forehead sounded like He slapped himself.Moreover, this situation of slapping your forehead and remembering something has to be said to be quite typical. Others next to you also showed a slightly embarrassed expression and were still trying not to laugh.

Xia Zhi saw something and decided to continue watching his performance.

"You have to remember to come tomorrow. Although there are only activities from morning to three o'clock in the afternoon, there will be such things as the closing ceremony of the school festival after that, and the student union and discipline committee will announce the results of their questionnaires. , and then give awards to the winning classes or clubs, this is something everyone needs to participate in, don’t forget it.”

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten this." After all, things like closing ceremonies are quite common, and Xia Zhi didn't treat it as if it didn't exist. It would be weird for an event as big as the school festival to not have a closing ceremony, probably.

"Also, the place where we will go to celebrate together tomorrow afternoon has been decided. As for the address, we grew up in Chiba, so it's no problem. You may not have been there often, and you can't tell clearly for a while. You can ask Shiraishi yourself tonight."

Xia Zhi narrowed his eyes, this was probably the ultimate goal of their performance.It’s still the same, I don’t know how to write about giving up.But they didn't seem like people who would take the initiative to do such a thing, so... Natsuki thought of the target's friend, Ryoko Yamamoto.This was probably planned by her, right?
Although he already knew the details, it seemed that it would be very troublesome to reveal it directly now. It would not be good to keep Tachibana waiting below. Xia Zhi finally nodded, saying that he knew, and then took him with him The schoolbag left the classroom again.

Do you want to say hello to Lihua again?Forget it, since the idea of ​​paying attention just now was Yamamoto Ryoko's, probably Yamamoto Ryoko has also arranged the kitchen, so it's better not to go there easily.Can you send her a message later?Or just call her directly or something like that. Anyway, I've already called her before, so there's no psychological pressure.

Coming out of the classroom, Xia Zhi with the bag on his back saw sitting on a bench not far away, holding up the board game suit, and shaking it lightly, not knowing what he was doing.Xia Zhi didn't suspect that she was unpacking the box. If she had unpacked the box, she would have flipped through it more openly and confidently, instead of dangling around with an opaque box.

"What are you doing?" Xia Zhi walked up behind Tachibana Aya and asked.

Li Huacai trembled and almost threw the box out together: "When did you come here?"

"I came here just now. I took my schoolbag and came directly. So what are you doing? I told you not to take the box apart, right? What if the parts or chess pieces inside are dropped halfway? It would be much more troublesome to get it back.”

"I didn't open the box, I just listened to the sound." Tachibana Aya said confidently.

What is this, is the sound part of the game or something?Natsuki couldn't understand Tachibana Aya's whimsical thoughts, but there was no time for him to continue trying to understand now.

"Are you done with your work?"

"I was just going to get a school bag. Now that I'm gone, I'll be back in time to make dinner."

I usually go to the coffee shop to eat directly after school at [-] o'clock in the afternoon. Today, not only did I get ready to leave school at [-] o'clock, I didn't even have to go to the coffee shop, I just went back to my apartment to get something to eat.The ingredients are still there, so there is no need to buy any more, which is quite convenient.

"Oh! Let's go, let's play. I'm already hungry after playing for so long."

Xia Zhi glanced at her: "Didn't you just eat takoyaki before?"

"Sweets are stored in a girl's other stomach and are not involved in digestion." She was talking nonsense seriously. Xia Zhi didn't bother to care about her too much. He took the bag of the board game set from her hand, and then She reached out and picked up the Hell Bomber Ji she put aside: "Let's go."

Then he took the lead in the direction of the school gate, and Tachibana Aya followed him with the Kumamon and Akita dogs he had placed beside him.

"By the way, what are we going to eat tonight?"

"Whatever you had for dinner last night, you will have for dinner tonight."

After all, he had no plans to buy new ingredients, so Xia Zhi told her the answer directly.

"Although the cooking made yesterday was also very good, don't you think we should add more? After playing for so long today, shouldn't we make some delicious food to reward ourselves?" Tachibana Aya put forward her own suggestion, completely Not considering the possibility that someone who has been playing all day might be a little tired by now.

Xia Zhi shook his head.

"What else do you want to eat?"

"You agreed? That's great. Let me think about something delicious..."

"Don't tell me the name of the dish. I can't do it even if it's too difficult. You should be more awake." Xia Zhi discovered her evil intention in advance and killed it in the cradle.

"Okay then." Xia Zhi did not see Tachibana Aya's depressed look, and strictly speaking, he had never seen Tachibana Aya look depressed - a truly depressed look: "I think what you did last time Those fried potatoes are delicious."

"Eat less fried food, it's not good for your health."

"It doesn't matter if you eat it once in a while. If you keep paying attention to these things, the delicious food will become unpalatable."

"...Okay." It's not that Xia Zhi agreed with her reason, but he felt that it was really simple to do, and as long as he could control the amount a little, it shouldn't have any impact on the body.Isn't it okay to eat as much fried food as you like in a fast food restaurant? The potatoes you fry yourself make you feel more at ease than the French fries in a fast food restaurant. Xia Zhi has no need to refuse.

"Also..." Li Huacai listed the dishes she wanted to eat while hugging the puppet, but she didn't know what is enough, she almost listed all the things Xia Zhi had cooked, At the beginning, he could nod his head or tell her directly "I can't do this", but later Xia Zhi didn't need to continue talking. He found that the dishes from Tachibana Caibao were basically all he could cook.So this essentially doesn't change anything. Today's dinner is still whatever you want to do.

The final menu, except for the newly added side dishes such as fried baby potatoes and fish-flavored shredded pork, was all the same as last night.In order to satisfy this product, I originally thought there was no need to go to the supermarket, so I went to the supermarket for a while and replenished some ingredients.

Tachibana Aya also shouted that she wanted to drink juice, but Natsuki didn't give it to her.I haven’t finished the ones in the refrigerator in the apartment yet, so I’ll wait until I finish what I want to buy.

When Xia Zhi opened the door to the apartment, the time had already reached 05:30 in the afternoon.Tachibana Aya walked in first without any courtesy, shouted something completely meaningless like "I'm back", and went straight to the kotatsu.

On the way back, because she needed to go to the supermarket to buy ingredients, Natsuki had already returned the board game set to Tachibana Aya, and she should have dismantled it at the kotatsu table.

"Don't litter." After a little warning, Xia Zhi placed the ingredients on the kitchen counter, took Hell Bomber back to his bedroom, placed it on the bed and put down his own bag.The heavy burden on his body suddenly disappeared, and Xia Zhi felt much lighter.

I also took out the lunch box that was in my schoolbag and cleaned it later when I was cooking so that it would be more convenient when I need to use it tomorrow.

Xia Zhi returned to the kitchen, ready to start cooking dinner.He took his cell phone out of his pocket and put it on the kitchen counter. Only then did he remember that he seemed to have something to do.

Now was not the right time to make a call, so Xia Zhi decided to send a text message to Shiraishi Lihua, saying that he had gone back and would call her later in the evening.Xia Zhi pressed send, watched the successful message notification pop up on the phone screen, and put the phone back on the kitchen counter.

Preparing dinner was a breeze, just like when she was alone, except that no matter what she did, she had to take care of two people, but this was not a big problem for Xia Zhi and there was no need to worry.

Tachibana Aya was unpacking the box in the living room, but as far as she was concerned, the movement of unboxing was a little quieter. Natsuki raised her head and took a look, and Tachibana Aya was sitting in the kotatsu. , holding his hands and thinking.

what happened?
There was no need for Xia Zhi to ask, Tachibana Aya threw the question away on her own.

"Xia Zhi, tell me, could the board game society in your school be the supplier of the board game store I went to before?"

"What are you talking about?"

Xia Zhi didn't quite understand.

"I just want to say that this Monopoly board game is very similar to the flying chess game we played before."

"...How similar is it?"

"Well... buying a house is called investment. After payment, you need to roll the dice again. If the number is between four and eight, the investment is successful. If not... your money is gone."

There it is again, the devil's game.Xia Zhi recalled the mysterious expression shown by the senior when he went to receive the prize.

Is the dark game about to start again?
