I Teach Kendo in Tokyo

v4 Chapter 13: Twilight

Kazuma carefully observes this modern imitation turtleback card, but there is no way to see it from the front.

   So he asked Ota, "Are there gloves?"

   "Some of them! I always wear gloves when I go into the mountains to prevent cuts, and I have some spares for you."

   said that the Lord got up and went into the back room. After a short search, he came out with a pair of brand-new gloves.

   Kazuma found that the words of Sumii Machine were on the gloves.

   "What's the situation with this Sumii machine?"

"Oh, this is the place where my son worked in the town when he was in high school. He always wanted to buy a motorcycle. A rural shrine like me is enough to save his college tuition, so he can only work and buy it by himself. ."

   Kazuma Then I remembered that I had to test for a motorcycle driver's license, and learn to shoot for a driver's license. These things I wanted to do a long time ago, I haven't done it until now, and Amano did not show up.

   But in the end, this is probably no problem. Anno and the others should still be brainstorming while consuming investors' investment.

   "Then this glove was used by the son?"

"No, no, Sumii-san will send employees a pair of new gloves every year to replace worn-out old gloves, but most people don’t change gloves after one year. They just wait for the old gloves to break and they can’t be used. New gloves It's there."

   Kazuma nodded, took the glove and observed it carefully.

   This is a coarse cloth glove stitched quite carefully. It is a bit similar to the labor protection glove he was familiar with in his previous life. There is no burr or dust in the stitched place. It looks like a new glove that has not been used once.

   "Isn't this new glove good for me?"

"It's useless for me to keep this. It will only make me miss it." Lord Ota gave a lonely smile, "I have always asked that **** to write to me more, but he found it troublesome and didn't write once. Han Tian before. When the second official promoted the tourism industry here, he also installed a phone number for the office of the shrine. I asked someone to tell the kid the number, and he never called back."

  Kazuma Hearing this, his face was a little hot.

  Because he was such a **** when he was in college in his last life.

  The letter is naturally not written, and the reason is very good: who still writes in the 21st century?

   And the phone call is only when it is necessary for living expenses. Later, Kazuma earned his living expenses by working part-time, so I didn't even make this call.

   After the popularity of WeChat, Dad and Mom were drawn into the Internet society by technological advancement, and Kazuma only re-established contact with Dad and Mom through the circle of friends.

   Kazuma In every circle of friends in the past life, the first person who likes must be my dad or mom.

  Because of the experience of the previous life, Kazuma said to Lord Ota in a sincere tone: "Should I go to Tokyo to find him and persuade him to come back?"

   "Don't bother you, when he gets tired, he will probably be back." Ota-san smiled bitterly, "It's like'Insane Ayin'."

   "Tale of Torajiro" is worthy of a Japanese national comedy, even in such ravines, people know Ain.

   Kazuma followed the conversation and asked: "There is no movie theater in this hot spring street. What do you think of Toujiro?"

He really just asked casually. After all, Japan is still a modern developed country. Even the villages and towns in these ravines are far more advanced than the contemporary Chinese villages. There are no movie theaters, but there should still be machines for playing video tapes. It is estimated that they are in the villages. The public activity center of the office.

   But Ota-san paused, a pause very imperceptibly.

   "The old detective of the future" Kiryuu Kazuma did not let go of this detail.

   Although he still didn't know the significance of this detail, he still carefully remembered this in his mind.

   Kazuma I remember that in a Japanese drama called "Kazuma 404" I watched in my previous life, the old detective said that "99% of what the detective does is useless, but the remaining 1% is the key to solving the case."

   In order to catch the one percent, you must write down everything that might be the one percent.

   The police manual exists for this, and everything that may be a clue is written down on it.

   Kazuma is not the case that cannot be recorded with a notebook, but he believes in his memory.

After this imperceptible pause, Ota-san answered the question of Kazuma: "A video recorder owned by the village master often plays the video tapes sent from outside. Every year, the video tapes will be sent to Toujiro after the release schedule. Let’s come here. It’s a benefit for remote areas promoted by the Ministry of Education."

   It sounds a bit like a movie of the last life going to the countryside.

  Kazuma smiled and said: "So, let the people in remote areas enjoy the latest cultural products, the Ministry of Education has really done a good thing."

   "Yes, yes, I didn't say good things about the shrines because they are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Sports, and Culture. They really did a lot of things."

   At this time, Tamamo reminded: "Aren't you going to look at the turtle card?"

   "Oh yes." Kazuma quickly put on the gloves and turned over the turtle back card that might be an exhibit.

There is a strange pattern on the back. Kazuma always feels this pattern is a bit familiar. He frowned and remembered it, as if it was in Tezuka Osamu's "Three-Eyed Prodigy", when the male protagonist wrote Le and revealed his third eye. There is a similar text on the spear that will be summoned!

   Yuzao shook his head: "This text is wrong, it looks like it was made by modern enthusiasts."

   Kazuma followed up with Tamamo's words: "This should be made according to the ‘ancient text’ on the gun that writes music."

   "Happy writing..." Tamamo tilted his head, "Uh, Osamu Tezuka's manga?"

"Correct."

Yuzao immediately showed his contempt for this turtleback card: "It's too unprofessional, and it's disqualified as a supernatural lover. If you don't understand the symbols of the Yayoi period, you can follow the Chinese Oracle, at least like the matter. Or use the Norse Rune."

   "So what, is it too nondescript to use the Rune?"

   Kazuma spit out.

   God Lord Ota intervened in the conversation: "Wait, what are you talking about? Is this symbol drawn from a manga?"

   "Yes, something made by a completely layman..." Kazuma suddenly stopped, "Wait a minute, does this hot spring street sell manga weekly?"

   "Yes, convenience stores will buy them, but only tourists will buy them."

Kazuma picked up this fake turtleback card with a gloved hand: "In this case, this is not made by local residents, and the three-eyed prodigy is a manga leaning toward teenagers, who like to read are young people. ..."

   In Japan in 1981, manga covered all ages, and people who took the subway or something could often see people reading manga magazines.

   The Japanese manga industry has segmented the market for people of different ages. Comics for teenagers are generally published in various weekly magazines, so these weekly magazines are often named "Weekly Shonen xxx".

   The comics for young people are placed in monthly and semi-monthly magazines.

   There is a clear distinction between the two.

The cartoons of Shao Xiang often have a royal line of blood, emphasizing passionate friendship and victory, and the theme of love is basically a sweet and young beautiful youth fairy tale. Sometimes there is a bit of criminal investigation theme, and it is generally the response to social problems like "Conan". .

However, the young people’s comics are completely different. The subject matter covers an unusually wide range. There are both "Island Farming" series, which are for adults, and other workplace passion dramas, as well as "Monsters" and "Medical Dragon" that directly attack the dark side of society and human nature. The works, related to the theme of love are also full of elements of the adult world: cheating, extramarital affairs and so on.

  Shounxiangxiang comics will usually be adapted into animations, while youthxiang will usually be changed into live-action dramas or live-action movies. It wasn't until 2010 that this point began to change. Young Xiang's Rurouni Kenshin also changed the live-action movie, while Young Xiang's Symphony Noddle has animated cartoons.

   However, it is 1981, and there is still a clear distinction between Juvenile Man and Youth Man.

   Adults in suits and shoes who take a copy of "Weekly Youth xxxx" to read in the company will be criticized by their boss for being too naive to grow up.

   Conversely, if a child holds a monthly or semi-monthly magazine published by Youth Xiang, he will be scolded by his parents.

   Therefore, the making of this turtleback card is probably a college student standing on the tail of an age who can still read the weekly xxxx in an upright manner.

Kazuma raised his gaze from the tortoise card and looked at Lord Ota: "Apart from the group of students from the Meiji University Fantasy Biology Research Association last year, have any young people's groups been here in recent years? ?"

   The Lord Ota replied in seconds: "You still have you."

   "Except us."

   "That's it. Young people are definitely more willing to go to the beach. Last year, I heard Watanabe-kun said that many college students would go to Hawaii for vacation."

   Kazuma thought this was nonsense. It is normal for a family who can afford the tuition of Meiji University to go to Hawaii for a vacation.

  Of course, there will be a few more years after the Plaza Agreement is signed. Japan has entered the bubble era. Many Japanese will suddenly find that they can also afford to go to Hawaii. At that time, Hawaii was all Japanese in the tourist season.

   Now I can be sure with great certainty that this turtle-back card belongs to the group of people from the Institute of Fantasy Creatures at Meiji University.

   However, among those who are interested in fantasy creatures, it is normal that one or two are interested in ancient divination?

   Kazuma put down the turtle back card and said to Lord Ota: "This box of things, let us keep it. It's too late today. Tomorrow I will go up the mountain to see if I can find any clues."

   "Huh? You want to investigate? So this is really..."

"No, I didn't suspect that it was a homicide, I just wanted to check something that I cared about." Kazuma interrupted the Lord’s words, and at the same time closed the box containing these odds and ends, and stood up." Then we will leave first."

   "Okay, get a good night's sleep." The **** master also stood up.

   Kazuma waved his hand, turned and left the living room, sat down in the hallway to change shoes.

  The **** master followed: "I won't send it to the entrance of the shrine. When the two of you go down the stone steps, be careful. Every year, there will be some people on the stone steps at the festival."

   Kazuma: "When will the festival begin?"

   "A week later, people from the Tourism Promotion Association and the village office should come to the shrine to decorate tomorrow, and there will be many stalls on the square of the shrine."

   Kazuma raised his eyebrows: "There are a lot of stalls? I'm afraid that people from the whole hot spring street have come to set up stalls. Is there anyone else to play? Is it possible that the stall owners come to help each other?"

   "There are tourists. During the tourism promotion in recent years, there are still a lot of people here during the peak season."

   "So this festival really started after the tourism promotion started?" Kazuma asked while picking up the second shoe.

   "No, there were before, but there are not as many people as there are now. People from several villages and even towns around the previous festival will come to play."

   "Eh, will you?"

   "Yes, there are very few entertainment activities in this rural area." God Lord Ota said in a self-deprecating tone, "Just like Lu Xun's "She Opera" wrote, people around will gather."

   In Kazuma I didn't expect to hear the name Lu Xun here, and immediately felt the DNA move: "I send my blood to Xuanyuan."

   "Oh, is Lu Xun's poem for Xu Shouchang? You deserve to be a student of Dongda University. You can recite the Chinese poem if you say it by heart."

   Kazuma Only then did I find the Chinese that I had memorized.

   Then he reacted and looked back at the Lord Ota: "The Lord is also very knowledgeable. You can tell which song I recite when I hear it."

   "It's just logical reasoning. I just mentioned Mr. Lu Xun. You immediately recite a Chinese poem, so Bacheng should be this one."

   After thinking about Kazuma, there is really no problem logically.

   He put on his shoes and stood up and glanced at Tamamo.

   Tamamo did not sit down, but he changed his shoes.

   "Let's go, goodbye, God Lord Sang."

   "Goodbye." Lord Ota waved his hand, "If you have any discovery, please tell me as soon as possible."

   "I will." After saying Kazuma, I went out.

   He glanced at the social office first, Bozi was no longer inside, the window for selling things was tightly closed, and the anti-theft iron fence was also put down.

   He walked to the torii gate at the entrance of the shrine, and Tamamo's light footsteps followed him.

   "What did you find?" Yuzao asked in a low voice.

   "I... don't know what it is, but something is wrong. I always think this Ota-san is not "Tarajiro's Story" that the village master watched."

   "What's wrong with this place?" Tamamo was shocked, "I think his pause was just a normal reaction when he encountered unexpected problems."

   "Do you think so?"

   Kazuma looked back at Tamamo.

   Yuzao has lived for so many years and worked as a mother in Yoshiwara. It must be considered that people's skill is quite good, and her opinion is undoubtedly worthy of reference.

   "Yes, people will be stunned when they encounter unexpected problems, but I support Kazuma. You insist on your own judgment. I don't know how to solve the case, and I don't have the intuition of the criminal police."

   "Don't say it as if I have it."

   "You obviously have it, didn't those previous incidents have been resolved by this keenness?"

   Kazuma glanced at Yuzao again, thinking that I had believed that those incidents were solved by myself, but I am not sure if you say that! Isn't it true that you deliberately induced me?

   Is it possible that I have been eating hard food all the time? "You are teaching me to do things"?

Tamamo looked at the expression in Kazuma and chuckled: "Don’t think too much of me. I was so powerful in the past that I could not do many things, but now I am just a little bit richer in knowledge and mentality. It's just a slightly more mature 18-year-old girl."

   "You are a little bit, is it the scale of the universe?"

   To the universe, 10,000 light-years is only a "insignificant" level.

   Tamamo smiled happily.

   By this time they had already passed the torii gate at the entrance of the shrine and started to descend the stone steps.

   Yuzao patronized and smiled. He stepped on it and didn't step on it firmly, his ankle crooked and his ankle was crooked.

   Kazuma grabbed her who was about to fall, and finally pulled her into his arms.

   To be honest, Kazuma is a bit suspicious of this guy deliberately, but seeing her grinning in pain, it's too ridiculous to ask "Did you deliberately?" at this time.

   So he asked with concern: "How is it, can I still leave?"

   "Well, walking should be fine...but..." Tamamo looked at the long stone steps in front of him.

   "I'll carry you down." Kazuma said, and then remembered that there was also the plaster bought from the shrine in the item with him, "Wait, I will put the plaster on you."

   God Lord Ota said that this plaster is actually not that effective, but the herbs mixed with mint and applied to cool the pain can relieve the pain and have a placebo effect.

   But this is better than nothing.

   Kazuma helped Yuzao to sit down, and then took off the shoes on the side where she got.

   Yuzao's feet are very small, white and smooth with a little pink, and the nails are well-groomed.

   The flesh on the soles of her feet is as soft as a ball on a cat's paw, and it feels similar to the touch.

   The fox is obviously a canine.

   Kazuma is like pinching the feet of a cat in a cat cafe in the previous life, pinching Tamamo's feet.

   "It's itchy!" Tamamo patted Kazuma lightly on the shoulder, "You care about the twisted ankle!"

   Kazuma then turned his attention to the ankle.

   He is a kendo practitioner, and he has quite a lot of experience in sprained joints. You can check the general situation.

   It seems that it is not as serious as Mijiazi, it is the kind that will greatly relieve the pain no matter what tomorrow.

   "It's okay." He said, then took out the plaster from the bag, opened the package, tore off a piece, and carefully attached it to Yuzao's ankle.

Yuzao: "It's cool, it's really comfortable. No wonder the villagers feel that this plaster is very effective, it relieves pain and has a placebo effect. After a few days, the sprain will heal naturally, and they will lament that the plaster of God is so powerful. except."

   Kazuma smiled, put the things in his hands, then turned and squatted down with his back facing Tamamo.

   Tamamo took off the shoe on the other foot, held it in his hand, and then put his arm around the neck of Kazuma.

   Kazuma confirms that the person has been backed up, and stands up forcefully.

   Tamamo suddenly smiled, and the wind blowing from her mouth stroked the auricle of Kazuma.

   "Laughing?"

   "I suddenly thought that when Dongda started school, that was the first time I wore high heels. At that time, I thought that if I got my feet, it would be like a romantic comedy."

   "Damn, you did it on purpose, right?"

"No. I don't use this kind of cleverness to satisfy my own desires. In Kazuma, you should also be careful when you go down the stone steps. There may be some problems with the design of this stone step, which may cause you to easily break your feet. "

   Kazuma frowned: "As the supernatural minister, shouldn't you say that this staircase has a ground-bound spirit?"

   "All the legends of earth-bound spirits haunting, most of them have scientific explanations.

"For example, it was reported in the Spiritual Magazine last month that a resident of an old apartment always heard that there were children playing with glass **** upstairs. If he couldn't bear it, he ran upstairs to protest. It turned out that the apartment upstairs was empty. Once the child of the household moved out after the death, no one moved in again.

   "The psychic writer of the magazine insisted that this is the earth-bound spirit. What do you think is the truth about Kazuma?"

   Kazuma replied while carefully descending the stone steps: "The apartment is a reinforced concrete structure."

   "Right, Kiryu gets one point."

  Reinforced concrete building, the steel material inside will undergo elastic deformation due to thermal expansion and contraction, and then there will be this kind of sound like a child playing with glass beads.

   It used to be wrong. In 1981, it was "now".

   The current buildings have not considered these, so there is basically this problem, especially at night when a large amount of heat absorbed by the building during the day is released, the most obvious.

  —

  In the future, new buildings will take these issues into consideration and leave room for deformation. This phenomenon is not obvious.

   Yuzao whispered in the ear of Kazuma, "You are also one of the murderers of Kazuma.

   "This is dead, the weirdness is really vulnerable." Kazuma teased, "The reason why you still exist is because everyone subconsciously still wants the white-haired vixen to exist in the world?"

   "Maybe."

   The corners of the mouth in Kazuma rose, and the footsteps down the stone steps became lighter.

   Tamamo is completely lying behind him.

   is different from the time when a monkey was just carried on the back. This time every nerve in the back of Kazuma is active, and the soft touch is transformed into a chemical substance between bioelectricity and synapses, which is transmitted back to the brain.

   Suddenly, Yuzao whispered in the ear of Kazuma, "Kazuma), how does it feel to pinch my leg?"

   "Why did you ask the same question as Mikako."

   "Ah, I was preempted, and Mikazi shouldn't be underestimated."

  Kazuma smiled without saying a word, and pushed Tamamo's body up with both hands.

   took a few more steps, and Tamamo said again: "If I suddenly reappeared now, you would be squashed in Kazuma."

   "How heavy is your prototype?"

   "Um...probably lighter than the mouse tank?"

   "That's too heavy!" Kazuma dutifully complained.

   can make Yuzao laugh like a silver bell, there is no reason for this trough not to vomit.

   The two chatted about something like this, as if the misty incident last year had never happened. They were just two carefree college students who simply came to travel.

   walked down the last stone steps, Kazuma let out a long sigh of relief, before he could speak, Tamamo slipped off his back by himself.

   "I can carry you to the hotel." Kazuma said.

Yuzao wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and smiled: "Forget it, you see that you are about to turn the barley tea you drank on the side of the gods into sweat. This plaster is more useful than I thought. I can Go by yourself!"

   Talking about Tamamo throwing the shoes in his hand to the ground, holding the shoulder of Kazuma with one hand, bending over to put on the shoes.

   Kazuma looked at Tamamo~lightnovelpub.net~ Now her clothes were completely drenched in sweat, obviously it was the sweat of Kazuma.

   Through the translucent dress, Kazuma discovers the swimsuit worn under Tamamo.

   "You, you also want to climb the mountain and go to the hot spring on the mountain, right?"

   Yuzao smiled and said nothing.

Kazuma sighed: "Everyone brought their swimsuits, so we really have to give them a chance to wear them. Should we go to the mixed bath for a swimsuit party at night? Put Hanayama-kun at the entrance of the bath to prevent others from entering the mixed bath. if……"

   "You are getting used to calling Huashan-kun in Kazuma. But this seems to be good too."

   As soon as Yuzao's voice fell, Dvorak's new world rang.

   Kazuma looked up at the big loudspeaker of the village hall where music was playing, and found that many crows fell on the top of the loudspeaker. They didn't mean to take off at all, as if they were used to the sound of the loudspeaker.

   The huge crow that I saw before I went to the shrine was not among the crows.

   Kazuma turned his head and looked into the distance, the setting sun coated the mountains with orange red, and Dvořák's music echoed in the open fields.

   The cicada cries disappeared at some point.

   Yuzao suddenly said: "At dusk, this time was once called the time of the devil."

   Kazuma: "Please, this scene is already very supernatural. Don't add any more supernatural elements."

   If you add more supernatural elements, my Kazuma will copy the classic soundtrack of the "x" file!
