Chapter 40: Drowning ([-]).

The sky turned fish belly white.

Shigure Qian and his party cleaned up the remaining filth in the courtyard and did not leave Asano's house until early that morning.

In the double room of "Yuzuya Hotel", they were gathering together to discuss.

Taniguchi Kaito sat on the white mattress and talked about the latest progress of the mission: "The fact that we met the Curse Master last night has been reported to the academy, but the academy has not yet given specific policies."

"Anyway, they probably want us to continue investigating."

Aida Zhen muttered at the side: "If we don't send more manpower to investigate, we alone will not be able to find out the itinerary of the curse master."

"If the curser were more cautious and hid because he was afraid of us, the matter would be even more difficult to handle."

Listening to Xiang Zhen's words, Taniguchi Kaito once again gave his opinion: "Don't complain blindly, things are not that bad. The "window" and the auxiliary supervisor have begun to search within Kyoto based on our information. I believe there will be some clues about the curse master’s whereabouts in the near future.”

"Furthermore," Taniguchi Kaito paused, "I always feel that the Curse Master was very impatient. Even after realizing that it was our trap, he still adopted strong offensive methods, as if if he were to delay anything, it would be too late. .”

Listening to the speculations of the two people, Amano became a little impatient: "I said, you have been talking about it all night. What are we going to do now? Are we going to look for traces of the Curse Master together, or do we have a new mission?"

"No, it's useless for us to look for people. Professional people do professional things. We are only responsible for exorcising curse masters and curse spirits."

"So, today, Zhen and I will take you as tour guides to visit Kyoto. Just think of it as a way to relax your nervousness after the battle."

Amano Ryoma: "Huh?"

Akihara Lin, who was sitting at the side, showed a surprised deer-like look in her eyes.

"Okay, everyone, get ready, we will set off later."

Kaito Taniguchi looked around and asked, "Are we missing one person, where's Asa Shigure?"

"It's strange, he was still in the room just now."

Amano glanced out the door thoughtfully.

In a single room on the second floor, Shigure Qian sat on the tatami, studying his new spell.

Four different colors of cold air appeared in his hands again and again, and he kept moving towards them, transforming into the transformed ice crystal red lotus.

But whenever the ice-blue crystals are about to cover the red lotus and materialize, the beautiful ice-crystal red lotus will disappear in the air in the next moment.

It's like it's not allowed by the rules of heaven and earth.

Always fails at the last moment.

The icy blue crystal particles are once again floating in the hand like stars.

Shiguqian leaned against the bed, "Failed again."

"I always feel like something is missing and I can't catch it."

"Let's try again later."

Resting next to the bed for a while, Shiguqian recalled every frame of practice from the beginning in his mind. He stood by and reflected on and observed his behavior.

"Maybe I should adjust the ratio of cold air."

Thinking like this, Shiguqian straightened up and prepared to try again.

"Deng Deng." There was a knock on the open door.

Shiguqian turned around and looked, "Hey, Liangjian? When did you come? What did you want from me?"

Amano Ryoma walked in from the door, glanced at Shigure Qian sitting on the ground with his black eyes, and replied: "I have been here for a while, and I have been standing at the door watching you practice the spell."

"Why are you still blaming yourself for not taking down the curse master before?" Amano Ryoma took out his hands from his pocket, crossed them on his chest and said jokingly: "It turns out that Shi, who has always seemed very generous, Is Yu Qian so stingy?"

"I won't even let myself go."

"In fact, no one will blame you. This is everyone's business. It is always a wrong choice to bear it alone."

"Haha." Shi Yuqian smiled awkwardly. He seemed to be looking for excuses, "No, I was just practicing a new spell and suddenly encountered a bottleneck. I just wanted to use my energy to break through it."

"Is that right?"

"Yes, yes, that's what it's like."

"Ha." Amano laughed lightly, "I remember someone said that when you encounter a bottleneck, you can't blindly work behind closed doors and try to solve the problem. It will have no effect."

"Keep a happy mood, eat and drink, maybe one day you will meet your opportunity, and everything will fall into place."

"Uh"

This is exactly what Shiguqian said to him when he saw Amano Ryouma training all day long in the high school. Now Amano Ryouma responded with these words to him. Unexpectedly, Shiguqian couldn't find any excuse at this moment.

As if he had completely read Shigure's thoughts, Amano Ryoma continued: "Let's go, Taniguchi Kaito and Aida Shin said they would take us to Kiyomizu Temple as tour guides."

"go together."

"Anyway, I just took a look at the door. Your new spell has been failing. I guess there won't be much progress for a while. Just go out and wander around to relax your mood."

Shigure Asa originally wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw the back of Amano Ryoma walking out.

"By the way," Amano Ryōasa walked to the door and continued, "I didn't come to you to ask you to go, I came because Lin asked me to do it."

Looking at the figure going away, Shiguqian cursed in her heart: This guy is really a bitch-tongued.

"This time our target is Kiyomizu-dera Temple in Higashiyama District, Kyoto City."

"lets go!"

Taking the bus from Kyoto Station to Kiyomizudera Temple takes about 30 minutes.

Soon, Shigure Qian and his party were at the foot of Mount Otowa, and there was a street leading to Kiyomizu Temple.

The maple flowers are in full bloom in October, and today is a sunny day with blue sky, white clouds, and so the streets are bustling with tourists and pedestrians.

The street leading directly to Kiyomizu Temple has a strong commercial feel, and there are many snack bars and jewelry shops on the street.

Kaito Taniguchi walked at the front of the team with his camera and explained the tourist attractions to everyone with all his heart.

"Let's go straight along this road and keep going up. Soon we will see Kiyomizu Temple." Kaito Taniguchi looked back and saw that the people who were following him had disappeared at some point. "Where are the people?"

Kaito Taniguchi scratched his head.

"Rin, Ryoma, do you want to eat?" Shigure Qian asked Akihara Rin and Amano Ryoma who were standing beside them.

At this moment, he bought four matcha-flavored ice creams, eating one and holding three in the other hand.

He took a lick and said, "Hiss." It was cold.

Amano glanced at her coldly, "I want to eat ice cream in this weather. Be careful if you catch a cold. I don't need it."

Akihara Lin stared at the ice cream in Shiguqian's hand, hesitated for a while, and then carefully gestured with her hand to express her gratitude. She took one, took a bite, and showed a satisfied expression.Amano Ryoma looked at Akihara Rin eating ice cream and felt that he had missed something again.

Shiguqian came up again and said with a smile: "Ryoma, do you really not want to try it?"

"Then take one."

"Strange, where are Aida and Taniguchi?" When they recovered, they found that the two tour guides had disappeared.

On the other side, Aida was chatting up a few beautiful girls in kimono.

"Hello everyone, this is my first time here. I just got separated from my classmates. I hope..."

"Are you asking for directions?" The girl interrupted Aida Zhen's words, "This is our first time here, so we are not familiar with the roads. You should ask someone familiar with them, right?"

"No, I just want to ask if you have any boyfriends?"

"what?"

Aida Zhen took the pose without any hesitation and began to show off his muscles, "With my height, appearance, and muscles, few people my age can match me. Would you mind leaving a phone number for me in the future?" connect?"

"I hope to be your boyfriend in the future."

Looking at the short-haired man in front of me who was wearing the uniform of an unknown school, he said, "Crazy."

"Second Grade [-], She Niu."

"We refuse." After saying a few words coldly, the girls quickly ran away as if they were avoiding the plague.

"Huh? Crazy, middle schooler?" Xiangzhen was petrified on the spot, "This is the first time I've talked to them. Does this mean I failed?"

When he was having self-doubt, a fashionably dressed older sister passed by in front of him. Aida's eyes widened. He quickly cheered up, encouraged himself a few words in his heart, and launched an "attack" towards the target.

"I reject."

"No, pervert."

"roll."

After a long time, the group finally gathered at the end of the street, under a vermilion temple.

"Why do they treat me as a free videographer? I'm obviously just waiting for a few classmates here."

Kaito Taniguchi took the camera handed by the girl expressionlessly and took pictures of them skillfully.

"That's amazing, Taniguchi-san, can you take a few more pictures?"

This is already twenty cards. Sisters, I have worked hard enough. Please come and save me!
Looking at the queue forming behind the girl, Kaito Taniguchi felt that his heart was so tired.

"Sea fight!"

Shigure Qian called Taniguchi from behind, and Taniguchi Kaito quickly handed the camera to the girl, "Sorry, the classmate I'm waiting for is here. I'll leave first. You can leave the photo to someone else."

Full of hope and tears, Kaito Taniguchi rushed over in three steps, "It's great, you finally came to save me."

Shigu Qian handed him a few chestnuts, "What's wrong with you? Why do you make such an expression?"

"They exploit the labor force and don't pay wages! My life is so miserable. Why did you suddenly disappear?"

"Oh, we went to buy some things. There are really a lot of fun things here, such as paper fans, ice cream, and new chestnuts." Looking at Shigu Asa and Amano Roma carrying large and small bags, Kaito Taniguchi looked resentful.

I'm doing hard work here, but you are enjoying it, right?This is not fair!
Behind a few people, Shinya Aida walked over with his head lowered. He was extremely sad. He murmured at the corner of his mouth: "Why? We have obviously talked to him more than 50 times, why didn't he leave a single phone call?"

"Am I really that bad?"

Aida Zhen fell into extreme self-doubt.

"Makoto Aida? What's wrong with you?"

"No"

Several people looked up and saw a vermilion temple with horns appearing in front of them. It was elegant and shocking. Next to the temple was a three-story tower towering into the sky. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the whole scene was refreshing.

Climb up the stairs and pass the statue of the Komatsu God. There are some maple trees on the stone steps and walls along the way. On a bright day, the maple leaves are like fire, burning, and the scene is extremely beautiful.

After choosing a suitable scene, Kaito Taniguchi handed the camera to the tourists who had taken pictures of them before. Now it was finally his turn to enjoy it.

"Hey, Qian, don't eat. If you really raise your head, you are so weak!"

Kaito Taniguchi directed several people, and as the "ok" gesture appeared, the tourists on the side pressed Quick Build.

"Three two one, eggplant!"

Taking the camera, Kaito Taniguchi looked at the photo. The colored light and the surrounding scenery were very good, but, "The scene of Shigure Qian chewing chestnuts and staring at the dead eyes, and the look of Aida wilting his head are a bit disturbing." view."

"The images of Rin Akihara and Ryo Amano are quite good? Hey," Kaito Taniguchi looked over carefully, "Ryoma is always staring at Rin, his eyes are so blank, it can't be A secret love?"

"Hey, I'll secretly take a picture of you later."

A group of people walked up the stairs, and a few people leaned on the railings and looked into the distance. Under the blue sky and white clouds, they could see the entire Kyoto and the tourists coming and going. The scene was grand.

"Lin, Liangma, look at the camera! Smile."

"Hey, Kaito, what are you doing?"

"Take a photo of you alone."

"why?"

"Both Qian and Zhen don't like taking pictures, so it's just the two of you left."

After buying the tickets, a few people walked along the corridor towards the temple. Perhaps there were too many people, so they did not pray like everyone else, but quickly walked towards the Kiyomizu Temple stage.

Along the way, they came across a shop selling sakura bells. Everyone thought they were too expensive and did not buy them. Only Amano Ryoma secretly bought a silver-gold sakura bell.

On the stage of Kiyomizudera Temple, everything was surrounded by fiery red maple leaves, like a warm sea of ​​fire. A breeze blew by, the rustling of maple leaves sounded, the sea of ​​fire swayed, and the spirits danced.

Several people admired it immersedly for a long time and took many photos before leaving reluctantly.

Continue walking on this road, and you will find Japanese specialties along the road. After walking for a while, three springs flow out from Otowa Mountain. This is the most famous Otowa Waterfall of Qingquan Temple.

The three springs have special meanings, which respectively represent longevity, health and wisdom.

The cold and refreshing spring water flows across the palm of your hand, washing away the dirt.

Shigure Asa and the others walked off the Kiyomizu Temple stage from the other side amidst laughter and laughter. Looking back, the three-story pagoda half-hidden among the fiery red maple leaves looked like an exotic beauty wearing a red scarf, a beautiful scenery.

On the bluestone corridor, several people came to Sannian Ban. After Sannian Ban, there was Ernian Ban.

Regarding this, Kaito Taniguchi also mentioned a cold joke, saying that if someone falls here, he will not live for two or three years. Of course, it is just a rumor.

No one really fell down on the road.

A few of them had lunch at a barbecue restaurant in Kiyomizudera Temple and didn’t return to the hotel until the afternoon.
