I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 425
Judging from Gabriel's expression, Gabriel probably thought it was too cheap and the style looked good, so he simply bought it and gave it a try.
“Welcome again!!”
Finally, the two walked out of the store and returned to the sunny urban streets with anime posters everywhere. Gabriel, who had a generous pocket money, bought six or seven second-hand game CDs. He held the bag with a little anticipation and prepared to take the train back to Shinjuku.
——[Ding dong! 】
At this moment, the sound of a text message made Li Yan stop. He took out his phone and looked at it. It turned out that the person writing the letter was a little bit special. It should be said that this was the first time that she would text him. connect.
Kato Megumi, a second-year female high school student who went to the same high school as Kasumigaoka Shiu and Eiriri, a woman with a gentle and sweet personality and a delicate appearance. She had met him by accident and had been in communication with him. .
[Kato Megumi: Senior, are you free now? I'm downstairs in your apartment, but it seems that you're out. It's rare to come to Tokyo this time. I have some things to ask about the club. If it's convenient, let's go outside together. I wonder if it’s okay to take a walk? 】
"..."
A few months later, for some unknown reason, on a sunny Saturday morning, a text message with a refreshing breath came from the girl who was connected by fate...
…
Warm wind blows through the summer streets.
On a clean street, under a tree, a girl wearing a red coat and a white beret, who seemed to pay attention to her clothes, stood quietly under the tree. The green shade swayed slightly in the breeze, like a beautiful Tokyo poster. Usually, she waits quietly for the person she is willing to wait for, as if she can wait forever...
As a result, the tranquility of Shinjuku streets was broken by footsteps, and she was slightly stunned. Then, the beautiful girl stood in the sun, her beautiful black hair under the white beret flowing slightly in the wind, Kato Megumi's bright and clear Looking at Li Yan, a girl-next-door smile appeared on his fair and delicate face.
"Long time no see, senior." Kato Megumi leaned down slightly and looked at him, with an indescribable and refreshing aura, and greeted him with a faint smile.
"...Kato, you...did you grow your hair long?"
After parting ways with Gabriel, who was going to work in a coffee shop, Li Yan came to see Kato Megumi. As a result, when he stopped, his attention was attracted by Kato Megumi's long hair, and he asked in surprise.
"Yes!" Kato Megumi seemed a little happy, nodded with a smile, and responded softly.
This is the long hair she had worked so hard to capture so quickly, which is undoubtedly an indescribable inner satisfaction for the expectant girl.
"Long time no see, Kato, I'm sorry. I said several times that I would go over to study fan games with you, but in the end too many things happened and I failed to fulfill my promise..." Li Yan looked at her with a somewhat embarrassed expression and apologized.
Megumi Kato shook his head slightly and said happily: "No need to apologize. It's obviously just my willfulness. I know that senior definitely has a lot of things to do. Today I came to Tokyo with my friends for shopping, and I once again made such a request to senior. , but I always feel that this time, the senior seems to have finally agreed to have a good time with me."
"Yes, the busy period has just ended. This time I will make up for the missed appointment."
Li Yan looked at her calmly and asked: "Where are you going? I can take you to have fun in Tokyo all day long. I will also pay for the food and tickets."
Recently, the eighth volume of the novel has just been released, and he has just received the royalties for August. He has plenty of money as he does not have to subsidize his family for the time being. He has also troubled Megumi Kato for a while, so he owes him all the favors he owes for a series of things. I hope I can make amends with this.
When Kato Kei heard this, she seemed a little flattered, and her cheeks turned slightly blushing, but then she stopped showing off for a moment, thought for a moment, showed a light smile, and said, "If that's the case, then I'm greedy. Senior ...I want to go to several places, and I have always thought about whether I can go there. Now can you realize my wish?"
Li Yan was slightly stunned and asked: "Wish?"
"Yes, my wish, so I will firmly grasp today's time." Kato Kei clasped her hands behind her back and whispered with a smile.
In the Tokyo area, even Chiba, Yamanashi, Saitama and other areas have a somewhat unacceptable level of consumption. The so-called fulfillment of a girl's wish for a day always sounds to Li Yan that it costs a lot, but Kato Megumi just said a lot. Ordinary planning arrangements.
In the morning, go to a shrine in the city called Fukudoku Shrine to pay homage and make a wish. Let's have a meal together at noon, and in the afternoon, formally invite her to ride on the Ferris wheel in Tokyo Amusement Park. This is Kato Megumi's original wish.
All the expenses add up to a level that is stress-free for almost anyone with a job. It seemed that Megumi Kato planned a one-day trip for him that was economical, flavorful, and could kill time.
"It's great, there's no pressure at all. Kato's consumption outlook is really ordinary and practical. My current wallet can fully cope with this one-day trip to Tokyo..."
Li Yan secretly rejoiced, thinking that this was the first time he was so confident about spending money to treat guests.
Next, just use the map on your mobile phone to find the route. In the corner of the street, the breeze was blowing at Megumi Kato. She was quietly waiting for the young man who was looking for it on his mobile phone. She remained calm and just smiled at him.
"We've basically found it, then, Kato, let's take the subway and go to Fude Shrine to pay our respects first."
Li Yan looked at Kato Megumi and explained.
"..."
Kato Megumi, who was standing facing the wind, looked at Li Yan inviting her. For some reason, she couldn't calm down in her heart. She lowered her head slightly, smiling happily, and finally, she quickly raised her head. , nodded and smiled happily.
"yes."
She is trying hard.
He clearly knew that in front of him, she was just a passerby who was accidentally involved. She was not the heroine in reality or in the game. She originally deeply believed that being ordinary would be fine.
However, when she looked up at the starry sky in the police station that day, the cherry blossoms were flying and the starry sky was so bright, but that person... was suffering, cutting off the dislocation that she didn't hate. At that time, she felt deeply I regret, regret, why... I am not special.
After exchanging a few words, Li Yan headed to the subway entrance with the expectant Megumi Kato, just like he was leading other juniors.
However, while the two were walking and talking, in a hidden place in the apartment building, the figures of two girls who had been hiding quietly came out and saw their backs...
…
When it comes to shrines for praying, Sensoji Temple in Tokyo is more famous, but there is also a unique shrine in Tokyo, which is Fukudoku Shrine.
This is a very small shrine, built directly next to a large shopping mall. There are fox sculptures on each of the two stone bases at the entrance. It is said that this shrine has been enshrined in the Tang Dynasty of China, that is, the era of Emperor Kiyokawa of Japan. gods.
In the bustling, fashionable and expensive commercial street, a red torii gate stands on the street, which is slightly inconsistent with the strong modern atmosphere. People coming and going walk into the shrine to pay respects to this ancient shrine.
"This is Fukudoku Shrine. I have been introduced to it by friends before, but this is my first time here." Under the leadership of Li Yan, Kato Kei came to this small shrine, and her eyes suddenly lit up. Said with a smile.
Li Yan looked at this shrine, which was located in the business district and had no guardrails to separate it. He also felt a little fresh. He stopped in front of the door and took a good look at it. He said with some surprise: "It is indeed very novel. I have studied abroad for so long. This is also the first time I have seen such a unique shrine..."
"...Yes, then, senior, let's go in and pray."
When Kato Megumi heard this, she was slightly stunned at first, and looked over. She felt that Li Yan's reaction and emotion just now were quite ordinary. He looked curious like everyone else, but she felt a little more at ease. Said with a smile.
【Gala, gala, gala...】
The two stood in front of the shrine, shook the hemp rope with the bell, then clapped their hands and prayed intently.
"..."
After Megumi Kato finished praying, he looked deeply at the shrine. If it were him in the past, he would probably just make a normal prayer with hesitation. However, after experiencing incredible things and reluctantly remembering a memory that was blocked by time and space, she became more sincere than anyone else.
The little wish she prayed for this time was not greedy at all, but it also worried her that even such a wish might be difficult to realize.
Unfortunately, this peaceful time seemed to make her feel that she would...probably miss it very much in the future.
Directly, after the prayer, the two went to a nearby restaurant to welcome the tranquility of lunch as noon approached.
After entering the restaurant, he found a seat by the window and sat down. After calming down a little, Kato Megumi watched Li Yan ordering the menu.
"..."
For a moment, after having a good chat with Li Yan about some trivial matters, Kato Megumi suddenly didn't know how to have a good chat next.
