According to Shirasui Akihara's original plan, it was planned to be used on the defensive all day today.

   But at noon, something went wrong.

After lunch, Bai Shuiqiu went to bed for a short nap according to his usual habits. After waking up, he heard the phone buzzing and vibrating again. He turned on the screen and took a look. It was surprisingly that Keiko Kandaro sent a few messages from LINE. Said that he was about to come to visit and asked if there would be any interruption.

   "Do you really want to come over?"

  Bai Shuiqiu just woke up, still a little confused in his mind.

   Although she was a little surprised by the news that Keiko Kamashiro was coming, she still replied a few words like "Welcome".

   Less than five minutes after the phone was put down, the next message from Keiko Kashiro was sent, saying that he had reached the foot of the mountain.

"So fast?"

   This time, Bai Shuiqiu was a little startled.

  Xin said that this girl was afraid that she had already left home and sent her a message.

   glanced at the time, she didn't care about going back to sleep again, so she hurriedly got up from the bed, took off her pajamas, put on the witch costume again, and then went out and talked to her grandmother. She walked outside the gate of the shrine, and before she went down the path, she saw two familiar figures appearing on the mountain path.

   is impressively Keiko Kandaro, and the female bodyguard named Ryoko

Chapter 150

   Compared with yesterday, Keiko Kamidai changed into relatively formal clothes. Although the colors and styles look simpler, the workmanship is still very elegant.

   Ryoko still wears that little suit.

   In addition to Ryoko, two burly men in casual clothes followed far behind.

Although the two of them pretended to be tourists, the burly appearance and temperament were not too obvious when compared with others, and Bai Shuiqiu had seen a lot of tourists, and he had a lot of identities for all kinds of tourists. , Can be recognized almost at a glance.

   But she didn't reveal it either.

After all, it is normal for a large group such as the Jindai Foundation to have a few bodyguards around. Moreover, there is a potential threat of painting. The stronger the security force around Keiko Jindai, the more worry Bai Shuiqiu will be. She was picked by the painter and the people she was in contact with, let her take care of one another and lose another.

   Therefore, Bai Shuiqiu glanced at the two bodyguards lightly, then closed his eyes back and let them wander around in the courtyard.

   then took Keiko Kandaro and Ryoko into the shrine.

  The purpose of Keiko Kamishiro's visit this time is to visit her and Chiyo.

   By the way, I would like to express my gratitude for what happened to the old school building last time.

   Faced with the visit of the daughter of the big benefactor..., the Tenmoku Shrine will naturally welcome it.

So after greeted several guests, Chiyo brought Keiko Kandaji and Ryoko to the inner room, and ordered Shirasuiqiu to make tea. A group of four people sat down on both sides of the tatami mats, separated by a low coffee table, Chiyo Sitting on one side with Bai Shuiqiu, Keiko Kamidai sits on the other side.

   As for Ryoko, she sat in the corner of the room.

   Although Keiko Kamishiro himself might not mind, for Ryoko himself, the identity of the employer and the bodyguard must be clearly distinguished. Chiyo didn't say much about this.

   just asked Bai Shuiqiu to deliver one of the cups of tea and put it in front of Ryoko. After the latter bowed and thanked him, Bai Shuiqiu leaned back and walked back and sat down on his knees again.

   Then there are some polite scenes.

  Kamidai Keiko came on behalf of his father, Keisuke Jindai, so naturally she has to say some words of gratitude.

   In addition, the girl also brought a five million yuan check with Keisuke Jindai's signature on it, which can be withdrawn from any bank in the city.

  This money is the sacrifice that Keisuke Kamdai promised to donate to the shrine.

   Chiyo solemnly took it with both hands.

Then, Keiko Kandairo mentioned his own construction industry a little bit, saying that they could do the renovation works of the road and torii for them, and only charge the cost price of the construction materials. For this, Chiyo rebuffed, and Keiko Kandaro insisted. Persuaded and agreed, but demanded that the price must be in accordance with the market price.

   This kind of scene is a bit too formal.

   But because the matter is of great importance, both parties cannot be cautious.

   Bai Shuiqiu sat next to him without saying a word, silently watching his grandmother negotiate with Keiko, psychologically a little uncomfortable.

   But Keiko Kamishiro performed gracefully and decently. Whether it was the words in the conversation or the inadvertent gesture of pouring tea and water, he did it naturally and drip-proof.

   The atmosphere in the room relaxes after the main business is finished.

Chiyo was a little curious about Keiko Kamishiro's sudden transfer to Narita City. After asking a few words about it, he said half-jokingly: "Keiko, I didn't expect that you are now young, and you can speak and do things well. Demeanor, if you take time, when the family business of the Shindai family is handed over, you will surely achieve some impressive results that even Keisuke could not have expected.

   In comparison, my Xiaoqiu's personality is a bit dull. If you can talk about half of you, my grandmother can save a lot of worry. "

   "Where is it, mother-in-law, you are too serious."

Keiko Kamidai pursed his lips and smiled, raised his eyes to look at Bai Shuiqiu, and said with a smile: "Everyone has a different personality, and my personality is also tainted by my father’s influence, but it involves You should also know something about the consortium.

In many cases, in order to cater to different people or things, they can only say something against their intentions while wearing a mask, even if they use some vicious and cunning means behind the scenes, they still have to maintain the illusion of hypocrisy. Although this kind of life Beautiful, but also very tired...

   I actually like Xiao Qiu's character very much. It's so simple, conforming to my heart, and being able to do what I want, I am afraid that many people dream of it. "

   "……"

   Bai Shuiqiu glanced at Jindai Keiko, and said nothing.

   Just now when the girl said "I actually still like Xiaoqiu", she didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. She paused deliberately before continuing. At that moment, Bai Shuiqiu was startled a little unconsciously, and he was relieved when he heard her continue.

   Really, she gasped so much when she was talking, she thought that Keiko Kashiro had any strange thoughts about herself.

etc……

   Almost when this idea came up, Bai Shuiqiu's mind was moved, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

   "Speaking..."

   How could I suddenly have that thought?

What Keiko Kamishiro said, except for the sentence at that moment, was actually just a very natural sentence, and her expression did not look like deliberately. As expected, it was just that she was worried... But in detail, the thoughts just now It's a bit abnormal in itself.

   After all... how can a girl with a normal orientation "like" another girl in that respect?

   Strange thoughts flashed from my heart.

   Bai Shuiqiu shook his head, throwing the thought away from his mind, but there was still a subtle feeling lingering in his heart, which lingered for a long time.

the other side.

Chiyo didn't notice this detail, but just smiled: "Perhaps this is life. Ordinary people who live a plain life always want to experience a more exciting life, but the upper-class people who have experienced great ups and downs often yearn for it. A leisurely and free life...

   If you can feel a little satisfied with your current life, you won’t have so many worries. "

   "What the mother-in-law said."

  Kamidai Keiko nodded, and said with a smile.

After chatting for a few more words, Chiyo stood up and said, "Today is the weekend. There are a lot of guests at the shrine. I have to go there for a while. Let Xiaoqiu entertain Keiko. After all, Keiko has lived in Chiba City for many years. Now that I’m here for the first time, I must be a little uncomfortable, so you can have a good chat with her."

"……OK."

   Bai Shuiqiu hesitated, nodded and agreed.

   After Chiyo opened the door and went out, only Shiraito and Keiko Kandaro were left in the room...

Well, there is actually Ryoko, but this female bodyguard has been sitting in the corner since entering the door just now, without making a sound or moving, and even breathing is very slow, so that if you don’t pay attention, you may just ignore it. Lost her presence.

   Bai Shuiqiu glanced over there, turned his head, opened his mouth, a little wondering what to say.

  Kamidai Keiko relaxed, and leaned forward to the coffee table with some penetrating thoughts. The expression on his face changed drastically, unlike when Chiyo was there just now:

   "Xiao Qiu, you don't seem to welcome me over?"

"Ok?"

Bai Shuiqiu was startled slightly, and then he noticed the half-joking tone in Keiko Kashiro's words, and smiled: "No, it's just a bit surprised. I thought you were going to visit or something. It was just a polite remark. Nothing. I thought it really came."

   Besides, it came so fast.

   Had it not been for the girl who had sent a few messages before arriving, I am afraid she would still be stunned.

   As for why I haven't spoken just now...

   The main reason was that Keiko Kamishiro and Chiyo talked about the topic was too formal, she couldn't put her mouth in at all, so she could only sit and watch silently, which naturally seemed a bit dull.

   "After all, our two families are family friends, and you and the thousand-generation mother-in-law helped us so much before. My father couldn't come to thank you in person because he was busy with other things. Naturally, my daughter would do it for me."

Keiko Kashiro pursed her lips and smiled, and moved closer, her dark eyes fixedly looking at Bai Shuiqiu, her eyes gleaming like water: "But Xiaoqiu really didn't feel the slightest surprise when she saw me coming over. ?"

  "?"

   A question mark slowly appeared on Bai Shuiqiu's head.

   I want to say something surprising...

   is indeed a little bit.

After all, it was a friend who came to visit him, and he should be happy because of his emotions and reason, not to mention that this friend is still so rich... But after the strange thoughts that came up just now, Bai Shuiqiu always felt that Keiko Kandaro’s words were a bit meaningful. As if pointing, his face was slightly unnatural, and he looked away.

  Kamidai Keiko looked at Bai Shuiqiu for a while, until she consciously made an action to avoid her gaze, the girl chuckled slightly, and a little disappointment flashed in her clear eyes:

   "I'm kidding, don't take it seriously..."

   After a pause, Keiko Kashiro provoked another topic: "Xiao Qiu, would you mind letting me see your archery?"

"Ok?"

"When I came here last time, I heard that you have good accomplishments in Kyudo, but because of the rush of time, I didn't have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes. This time I don’t have enough time, so please let me see it. If you can try it yourself. , It's even better."

  The last time that Keiko Kandaro said, naturally refers to the time she came with her father Keisuke Kashiro.

   At that time, Bai Shuiqiu did mention that he had learned a little bit of archery.

   I didn't expect Keiko Kashiro to remember it after such a long time.

  Since the guest took the initiative to propose, Bai Shuiqiu is not too disappointed. Anyway, it won’t take much time to perform. Besides, just sitting here and having no interesting topics to talk about, it’s really a bit boring...

   So, she nodded quickly and got up at the coffee table: "Please come with me."

   Tenme Shrine has a field for training archery.

   The area is not big, it's just an indoor dojo of 100 square meters with wooden floors. There are almost no ornaments in the room. The windows are all old-fashioned wooden windows, even glass. When the sun shines through the thin window paper, it smears a patch of dappled light spots on the ground.

   Bai Shuiqiu used to learn archery from his grandmother when he was still young.

   Later, he was a little older and was sent to a dojo system outside to study for a few years before he had a good archery skills.

   Even if you leave aside the [Ancient Flow Bow Art] from the system, Bai Shuiqiu's body's own bow skill is considered to be among the best among high school students. Of course, there is nothing comparable to the kind of player like Kurimi Sanae who can win prizes in national competitions.

   But I have to say something...

   The dojo of more than 100 square meters looks quite spacious, but as a venue for archery training, it is a bit small.

   After Bai Shuiqiu opened the door and came in, he asked Keiko Kanda to wait outside for a while, then picked up the mop in the corner and wiped the inside of the dojo briefly.

Although this dojo is not used much now, it is still a room in the shrine after all. It is usually cleaned frequently, but the frequency is not high. It is basically maintained once a week. There is some dust on the floor, but it is not If it is too dirty, it will probably be enough to wipe it down.

   During this process, Bai Shuiqiu also took a walk to estimate the longitudinal distance in the room.

   And Keiko Kamidai stood beside her with her hands behind her back, silently watching Bai Shuiqiu's movements.

   The room was originally not big.

   Within a few minutes before and after, Bai Shuiqiu put down the mop and opened all the windows. After the water stains were dried by the wind, he signaled Keiko Kamdai to come in.

Then I looked around again, and from a low cabinet in the corner, I found an old Japanese Japanese bow-if I remember correctly, this Japanese Japanese bow was still used when she was a child, because it was a little old. However, due to the material, the performance of the bow and arrow has dropped drastically, even the bowstring is a little loose, and the durability seems to have fallen almost.

   But for the time being, it’s okay to perform the Kyudo for a while.

   As for why you don’t use Azusa bow or compound bow to perform...

   The former is a magic exorcism device after all. It is too wasteful to use it for this kind of thing, and it is now being kept by Chiyo, and it needs to be negotiated in the past, which is somewhat inconvenient.

   With a compound bow, the difference with the bow is a bit too big. Normal archery is no problem, but it’s a bit out of sync with things like archery.

   "In Kyudo, it's probably like this..."

  While speaking, Bai Shuiqiu walked to the opposite side of the target with a bow and arrow, took a deep breath, and proceeded to practice in accordance with the usual movements of training in the archery department.

   A set of actions was deliberately slowed down and it took about five minutes.

When Bai Shuiqiu let out a long sigh and turned to look at Keiko Kamidai who was sitting next to him, he saw the girl with one hand resting her cheek, her eyes looked at her with brilliant eyes, and the expression on her face seemed a little eager to try. Look like

Chapter 151

   "Sure enough, compared with the dirty sports like kendo, the elegant archery is the most suitable for girls. The action of your archery just now looks really beautiful and handsome."

   "Thanks for the compliment."
