Eight,

Seeing her coming, Chanako seemed very happy, she jumped over like a bird, and hugged her arm: "Sister Masako! You are here! Are you here to pick me up?"

Masako's face paled, she touched Chanako's head: "Isn't it Tsuruno's job to pick up people?"

Chanako was a little embarrassed when she heard the words, and hesitated for a long time before she approached the other party's ear and whispered a few words.Masako looked at her helplessly after listening, then took her hand and walked towards Nadeshiko.Before she could speak, she gave Nadeko a cold look.

"Follow us if you don't want to die, if you get lost..." There was a strong sense of warning in the unfinished words afterwards.

Nadeko shook her shoulders slightly, and Chanako felt a little distressed by that not-so-fragile appearance, she immediately comforted her gently, and held Nadeko's hand to prevent her from getting lost.

I noticed that Masako's face smelled even worse.

The group of people just walked along the path into the depths of the courtyard, passed through several places similar to alleys, and came to a large group of houses.

Those are some very old-style houses, with sliding paper doors painted with green bamboos, uniform triangular eaves on the roof, and rows of moss-covered tiles covering each other layer by layer, forming a perfect radian.

Walking a little further, the unique smell of wood spreads over the surface, setting off the whole group of houses quite beautifully.

Masako opened the door. After the door opened, the inside immediately resembled dominoes. After a clear "swipe" sound, countless doors and inner doors were also opened.

Several people took off their wooden clogs and walked straight in.

When the last door was pushed open, the person who should be seen finally appeared.

-

It was a room big enough to accommodate a hundred people. There were not many decorations inside the room, but many luminous objects of various shapes were placed in the corners and on the roof, illuminating the room as if it were daytime.There are more than a dozen young girls sitting or standing scattered in the house, most of them are in their 20s, wearing the same style of kimono as Masako Chanako, gathering in small groups or talking about things , or the sound of the piano and flute, or cooking tea to comfort friends, or reading history and discussing swords.

At the end of the room, there are rows of wooden stairs, on which a young man like white jade is sitting.

Although he was wearing a very formal bright red kimono, his hair was disheveled and his shoes were thrown here and there, making him look a little rough.

There is still a hint of childishness on the young man's face, but it is the eyebrows, eyes, nose bridge and thin lips that can reveal his real age.He was twisting his hair and looking at a book with embarrassment at the same time.

The sound of Masako and the others pushing the door caught his attention. Like a child who finally found an excuse, he quickly threw away the book portrait that made him suffer, then pulled his shoes and jumped down the steps.

The other girls also temporarily put down the things in their hands and looked over one by one.

"This is the older sister I brought back, her name is Nadeko, she is very gentle~" Seeing that everyone's attention was on them, Chanako immediately raised her hand with Nadeko, with a proud face He introduced, "I like Nadeko-san very, very much~"

How can you tell that she is very gentle...

It was like a barrage opened in my head, and the screen was full of complaints.Among them, there are some strange things like "~", "Crowds are jealous~", "233333~ girl is so stupid~ don't even look at the side".

Masako's face twitched and completely darkened.She pulled Chanako over to hold another person's hand, and then tucked her into her arms.

"Canako is tired today, I'll take her back to the room to rest now." Masako pressed Chanako tightly, her strength suppressing her struggle, "Tsuruno, next you take this..."

"Nadeko." The people above and below me added their names with a wink.

"Hmm... Nadeko, next you will bring Nadeko-chan to get acquainted with everyone."

A girl with a round figure but always smiling stood up and said, "Ah~ I see~ You can take your Chanako back to rest first~"

As soon as the words fell, several girls laughed and looked at Masako narrowly.

Masako's ears turned red, she glared viciously at the girls who were laughing out loud, then "hummed" and left with Chanako in her arms.

The laughter got louder again.

Taking advantage of this moment, I squirmed from Nadeko's head to her right shoulder.I did this because I couldn't see Nadeko's expression clearly when I was up there.

Yes, I'm that mean.

Seeing a flower of the high mountain disguise itself as a delicate and shy little white rabbit, how can it be enough if only listening to the voice (doge face).

Sure enough, Nadeko contemplated for a while, and then made a disturbed and uneasy expression, and tugged at the corner of the clothes with her hands.

Her expression was quickly caught by Tsuruno, and she hurried over, gently held the other's hands, and apologized a little embarrassedly: "I was just teasing the living enemies, let you I'm so sorry for standing by for so long."

Nadeko quickly shook her head and said repeatedly, "No."

Seeing that Nadeko is so easy to talk, the girl named Tsuruno's eyes softened a lot. She took her a few steps forward, and then introduced her one by one: "This is He Liu, this is..."

At this time, the young man just squeezed in from the crowd, so Tsuruno turned back the name on the mouth, and said in a different tone: "This is Mr. Yamashita." Apart from respect, there seemed to be something else in the words .

Hearing his name, the young man beckoned to Nadeshiko very happily. Seeing that Nadeshiko turned his head to the side with a blushing face and said nothing, he was also a little foolish, and the roots of his ears soon turned red.It wasn't until a few girls who had been watching the fun pushed him narrowly that he suddenly came back to his senses.

"Well... I have something else to do, you and I can do whatever you want..." As soon as the words finished, he was seen running out like a red ghost in the wind.

Tsuruno, who had a smile in his eyes, had a slightly ugly expression on his face.

-

"Tsuruno-chan..." Nadeko came back to his senses, and said hesitantly, "That... what does your lord mean and I am not a sacrifice..."

Hearing this, Tsuruno smiled reassuringly: "Don't worry, your lord is a very good monster, he doesn't eat people."

"Then this sacrifice..."

"There is no such thing as a sacrificial offering." Tsuruno slightly restrained his smile, his eyes flickering, "In short, you will definitely have a good time here, so don't think too much about it."

"But I miss my family, I want to go home..." Not only did Nadeko not relax when he heard this, but his eyes turned red immediately, and he buried his face deeply in his palm, and a crying voice followed from his fingers. leaked out through the gap.

For a while, the girls next to him gathered together, comforting and handing handkerchiefs, their young faces were full of puzzlement.

"Why do you want to go home?" A short, little girl who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old tugged at the corner of the clothes of the person beside her and asked in confusion.

And the girl she asked obviously couldn't give her an answer.But she was more stable, neither made up nonsense to fool the past, nor asked other people.She frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head at her, signaling her not to ask now.

Seeing that she was crying all the time, Tsuruno tried to comfort her for a long time but it didn't work, so he had to resign from the crowd first, and helped her to find a quiet place to rest before comforting her.

Tsuruno helped Nadeko through another door in the room, and then came to a corridor with paper doors on the left and right.

Pushing open one of the doors, a small room that can accommodate two or three people appeared in front of us.The interior layout is mainly light yellow, and there are a lot of magnificent or exquisite furniture and utensils, which seem to have taken a lot of effort.

Tsuruno took out two things made of rattan that looked like buns from the cabinet, put them on the floor, and sat down while stroking Nadeshiko.

After that, she lifted the teapot on the small wooden table and poured a cup of fragrant tea for herself and the other party.Nadeko seemed to have stabilized her mood at this time, although she was still sobbing, but the hands that had been covering her face had already closed the cup of hot tea.

Tsuruno raised the teacup and took a sip, the heat in the cup just covered her face hazyly.She seemed to be considering how to speak, a pair of beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows slowly raised slightly.

"When you come here, you basically can't go back."

"You have only two choices, either forget all your memories and live here carefree for a long time, or bury these memories in your heart and keep them alone."

Nadeko clenched the cup in her hand, as if she wanted to ask, but the other party stopped her first: "Are you sleepy?"

"what……"

Nadeko's body swayed, I quickly slid down her dress, and got into her sleeve before she fell down.

I stuck out my "head" and looked nervously at the other side of the wooden table, for fear that she might do something.

But Tsuruno just blew the hot air on the teacup, then put away all his smiles, and drank the tea expressionlessly.

She sat there for a long time, not knowing what to think.

I turned my "head" to look at Nadeko's situation. She seemed to be asleep, her brows were relaxed, and her face was very calm.

I was a little puzzled, obviously, Nadeko would pass out, it must be Tsuruno's hands and feet, but how did she move her hands and feet?It's tea, but Nadeko didn't move after taking a sip...

I could only curl myself into a ball and pray that Nadeko was okay.

After Tsuruno drank the whole pot of tea, she seemed to have regained her senses and put on that sweet smile again.But I don't know why, but I shuddered, thinking that this woman is really scary, all of them are film kings.

She got up slowly, went to Nadeko and pushed her, as if the other party just fell asleep accidentally while chatting.

After pushing for about a minute or two, Nadeko slowly woke up.After she opened her eyes, her face changed for a while, and finally stopped in a kind of pure doubt.

"Did I just... fell asleep?" She asked a little embarrassedly.

Tsuruno looked at her intently for a long time, until she was sure that there was nothing unusual, then she raised the curvature of her lips a little more, her tone was as sincere and gentle as before: "Nadeko-chan woke up, you read too late yesterday I didn't expect to drink tea with me today, and I fell down while drinking. I thought you had some kind of disease, but when I got closer, my ears were full of snoring!"

Nadeko chewed the other party's words in her mouth, and then the confusion in her eyes slowly disappeared, as if she couldn't remember what happened before, she explained with a face of embarrassment: "I, I will never It's going to be so late..."

Hearing this, Tsuruno's smile deepened, she helped him stand up, and then helped Nadeko straighten some messy hair: "I think, since Nadeko-chan likes books so much, she usually stays in the room It is also understandable, after all, this is a personal hobby... just..."

Nadeko repeated "I like books" and "I like staying in the room", and then followed the other person's words and asked, "Just what?"

Tsuruno was a little embarrassed, he hesitated for a while before showing embarrassment: "It's just that adults hate reading books, so if Nadeshiko who likes reading books appears in front of him, maybe he will be hated..."

"Then I will not appear in front of him." Nadeko continued the words very naturally.
