[Comprehensive] Goddess Event Book

In China, the administrative units under the state are provinces, municipalities, autonomous regions, and special administrative regions, while in Japan they are prefectures.There are 47 prefectures and prefectures in Japan, of which 'du' refers to Tokyo, 'dao' refers to Hokkaido, 'fu' refers to Kyoto and Osaka, and the remaining 43 are 'counties'.

Unlike the counties in China, which are under the city, the counties in Japan are equivalent to the provinces in China and are the superior level of the city.However, limited to the land area of ​​Japan, the counties here cannot be said to be the same as the provinces in China.

The Japanese have been emphasizing from a very early age that each county must have certain characteristics—a more extreme requirement is that each city and every village must have its own characteristics and establish a brand.

When Anna was shopping in China, except for a very few things that would care about the place of origin, the rest didn't think about it at all.But it’s different in Japan. Many products will be marked with the place of origin, and people around me seem to care about this when shopping.

The practice of 'one village, one brand' can stimulate local enterprising spirit on the one hand, and promote economic development on the other hand.If things go on like this, many small places in Japan will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.At this point, the country is much worse... Of course, the country is too big and there are too many good things. It is destined to be impossible to publicize everything like Japan.

"Gunma County..." When they heard that Anna planned to go to Gunma County to relax, the friends were very surprised, and seemed to be hesitant to persuade Anna.

Anna knew what they were going to say, and waved her big hand to tell them not to worry.

Gunma Prefecture also has its own "characteristics" in Japan, but this characteristic is not a good aspect.It seems that other places in Japan have a bad label for Gunma County - something like 'very poor', 'many bad boys', 'locals are weird and xenophobic'.

'Neighborhood friendly Hakata District, honest folk customs Gunma County' is an ironic joke. The Hakata Toshiro in Anna Honmaru has been owned by Hakata businessmen for a long time, so he knows Hakata very well, and he desperately tried to refute the rumors here, so Anna is considered to have understood.

As for the joke of "friendly neighbors in Hakata Ward, honest people in Gunma Prefecture", it is completely that people from other places are criticizing Hakata Ward and Gunma Prefecture in reverse!It cannot be said that it is groundless, but it is a joke to say how true it is.

Just like in China, there are also regional blacks, and there are always stereotypes for some regions, such as 'Shanghai is xenophobic and money-worshiping', 'Guizhou is poor and trouble-making'.In fact, it is partial generalization, blinding the eyes.

Anna has a good impression of Qunma County. Of course, it is not without reason. In fact, she has friends in Qunma.

When Anna was in China, she met Japanese friends who practiced Japanese with her. One of them was Kakaiin Yaji, whom she met after she went to Kyoto.And the other one who has not met is Gunma Ren. At the beginning, Anna and her senior brother Ogata Seiji said that the other party was a driver who liked to modify cars, and the senior brother warned her not to associate with him.

Probably in the eyes of ordinary people, drivers are 'bad'.

But this is also a stereotype. At least from the communication, Anna thinks that the other party is a very simple and sincere boy, but sometimes he has a little temper.But young and energetic boys seem to be like this, right?Anna thought it was normal anyway.

As for the fact that the opponent is a driver, it is even less of a problem.Anna can feel that the other party really likes cars, instead of thinking of driving as a matter of risking his life just to look handsome.The other party will explain to Anna in detail what modifications he has made to his car today, and what new achievements he has created on the midnight mountain road.

Seriously and solemnly, what is the difference between this and a boy who likes to play basketball and make models?

Anna occasionally hears about Qunma from the other party, and knows that he is a native of Qunma, and now he is studying in a private university in Qunma—according to him, it is a private university that is not popular, and anyone who has money can go to it University.

I really dislike it...

But that's normal, he'd complained to Anna too, he wasn't interested in college at all, and thank goodness he finished high school.However, both his parents and elder brother felt that he should have at least a college degree, and they didn't expect him to learn anything, but just let him have something to do.

But he doesn't think he is very free, he is busy with the car all day long, and actually rarely goes to class.

There are three famous mountains in Gunma, Mount Akagi, Mount Miaomu, and Mount Qiuming (Mount Haruna). He seems to want to run to see each mountain, but his home field is Mount Akagi, and the other two mountains have not been seriously run.It was also from the other party that Anna knew that the drivers were also very organized, not only the team, but even their own home courts!

That friend and his eldest brother were both studying at university in Maebashi City, the capital city of Gunma Prefecture, so the two brothers lived alone in Maebashi City.And the home is in Takasaki City - Mount Akagi passes through many cities, among which Maebashi City is one of them, which is probably why the opponent will use Mount Akagi as their home field.

Gunma Prefecture is not a place famous for tourism. Compared with the neighboring Karuizawa area, it can be said to be far behind.But in fact, there are many things to see here, the most famous of which is probably 'Kusatsu Onsen', and the quality of the hot springs alone is not inferior to Karuizawa.

As for the poor reputation at home and abroad, there are many reasons, and the climate problem in Gunma Prefecture may be one of them.

The winter in Gunma County is windy and cold. The famous local specialty food, dried yams, is naturally dried in the air in winter. It can be imagined.As for summer, it is even more severe. Whether it is Okinawa, the southernmost point of the country, or Tokyo, the most densely populated city, the temperature is not as high as that of Gunma...

Hot springs are meant for leisure and recuperation, and this climate makes people hesitant.

As for Anna going to Gunma in the summer, on the one hand, she plans to leave the familiar place of Tokyo to rest temporarily, and on the other hand, the other party just invited her to go to Gunma... Since we have known each other for so long, it is better to get to know each other~

"What's the name of your friend, my lord?"

"Takahashi, Takahashi Keisuke... Speaking of which, the surname Takahashi is really common in Japan." Anna couldn't help but sigh.

In China, most surnames are very common except for a few forms which are very rare.Japan is different, Japan is the country with the most surnames in the world, with 10,000 million people having [-]+ surnames, that is to say, a surname is generally only a few hundred people!

Takahashi, Suzuki, Sato, Fujiwara, etc. are their common surnames.

Keisuke Takahashi, from Gunma, is 21 years old this year and is studying at a private university in Gunma.His hobby is cars, and now he is the second in command of his older brother Takahashi Ryosuke's team 'redsuns'.

"Huh? There are a lot of people today!"

"Because people from Redsuns are coming tonight. They are very strong. I heard that they are going to challenge the local drivers!"

"Is there any good driver in Qiuming Mountain... I remember the local team is called 'speedstar', right? The captain drives an S13, the skills are average!"

"So, it's really tragic, it's a completely one-sided massacre, right?"

"Could it be that the people on the Qiuming Mountain side are too scared to fight?"

"No, even if the strength is not good, it's not that you don't even have this bit of backbone, we just wait and see the good show!"

It was indeed a good show. When the redsuns motorcade drove up to the top of Mt. Tyumen, the brothers Takahashi Ryosuke and Takahashi Keisuke drifted through the curve in parallel, which immediately aroused the audience cheers and applause.

"We are members of Akagi Redsuns. Excuse me, can you tell me who is the fastest team or driver on this mountain road?" Short hair dyed blond is obviously a bad attribute, but from this young man, he only looks lively.

This passage still sounds very polite, but this is definitely not his original style - this is Takahashi Keisuke.These words were arranged by his elder brother Takahashi Ryosuke long ago, and he had to be polite no matter what he went to play in other people's venues.

Such words obviously caught the attention of a group of riders who gathered at the top of the mountain, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.Riders often do not admit defeat and have strong confidence in the mountain roads they are good at.Ask who is the fastest driver, how can this be answered in such a short period of time.

But at this time the local team 'speedstar' stepped forward, and the captain Ikeda nodded with a serious expression: "Our speedstar team in Tyumen should be the fastest here."

Takahashi Keisuke glanced at his elder brother Ryosuke, and continued to speak after receiving the other party's signal.

"Then I'll make a long story short, can you have an exchange meeting with our redsuns in Qiumen Mountain?"

This caused more discussion than before, although it was known before that it was impossible for foreign teams to come and leave, and it was very likely that they would challenge local drivers.But after this incident really happened, everyone still reacted with excitement.

"There's a good show here!"

Seeing the opponent's hesitation, Shi Hao, who has always been very good at diplomacy from redsuns, stood up and said with a smile: "How about it, it's nothing new to only race with local drivers. It would be more exciting to compete with outside teams. I think Not only can you make friends and exchange information, but you can also improve your skills. Let’s start with a warm-up exercise, and finally send our respective representatives to compete up and down the mountain. Regardless of winning or losing, the harmony between the teams is the most important.”

Shi Hao is definitely an expert in communication, and what he said was very clever.It is not only kind and polite, but also leaves no room for the other party to refuse.

Just like Speedstar's captain Ikeda said, 'Since we said so, there is no reason for us to refuse'.

[-] o'clock in the evening of the next Saturday is set as the race time - the weekend is the most convenient, these speed drivers all have their own jobs, and they probably don't have time at all on weekdays.

"Let's go for a good run today." Shi Shi turned his head to look at Takahashi Keisuke and Takahashi Ryosuke, and got an affirmative answer from the two brothers.

Riders are very particular about the 'location'. On the mountain roads that they run every day, it is very clear where there is a grain of sand and where the asphalt lines are different from other places. This is very beneficial to the competition.It is also because of the huge advantage that there are sayings that it is a shame for local drivers to lose to non-local drivers at home. In that case, it only shows that the technical gap is huge.

Drivers from other places need to be familiar with the mountain roads and run a few more laps before racing, which is a very normal and reasonable requirement.

"Keisuke, how is it? The situation on the mountain road." After running a few laps, Shi Hao and Takahashi Keisuke met in front of the vending machine at the foot of the mountain, and threw a can of coffee to each other.

With a bang, the can was pulled open: "Compared with Chicheng Mountain, there are more curves and sharper curves. If it's going downhill..."

"Haha, Keisuke, you used to hate this kind of theoretical research the most, no matter what, just go for a run. Now you start to care about this kind of information?" Shi Hao and the rest of the team drove Takahashi Kei It's a joke.

Keisuke Takahashi just curled his lips: "This kind of information is not considered intelligence at all, is it? Let me tell you, my elder brother's kind is intelligence. You don't need to run at all, just researching on the computer can increase your speed."

After talking for a while, Takahashi Keisuke threw away the empty soda can and planned to run a few laps again.Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and looked back at Kenta Nakamura, who was in the same university as him: "Xionta, help me ask for leave next week!"

"Ask for leave? Keisuke, what do you need to be away from school for a week." The sudden voice came from Takahashi Ryosuke who just got off the white FC.

Compared with his parents, Takahashi Keisuke was obviously more afraid of his elder brother, and made a gesture of surrender: "Well, next Saturday is not going to compete in Qiumingshan, there are many things."

That's a good reason, and a worst reason.Takahashi Ryosuke has a strict nature. He knows his younger brother and he also knows about racing.So it is very clear that Keisuke Takahashi will never spend a whole week to get familiar with the track-up to now, the opponents of Qiuming Mountain are not qualified to attract such attention from him.

Facing his elder brother's staring eyes, Takahashi Keisuke could only raise his hand in surrender even if he was a former bosozoku: "Yes, yes, yes, brother, I have a friend who is coming to Gunma from Tokyo for a week or two, so... ..."

Hearing this reason, Takahashi Ryosuke frowned first.Entertaining friends is of course a good thing, but right now at the beginning of the "Kanto Speed ​​Project" and the race with the drivers from Mount Tyumen, there is always a feeling of "doing nothing".

The Kanto Speed ​​Project is an event that Ryosuke Takahashi has planned for a long time. He intends to take the team to challenge in various places in Kanto, pursuing the highest speed route and technology of mountain roads-he intends to complete one of his mountain road theories.

But looking at his younger brother's eager eyes, and Keisuke's always being a single-minded person, he was extremely focused on the speeding car, so it was unlikely that he would be distracted by this matter.

"Okay, but if you fail another subject this semester... I will let Mrs. Xian keep an eye on your schooling from now on!"

Takahashi Keisuke, who had achieved his goal, fully agreed, as for the matter of failing the final subject.Their low-level private universities actually have very easy exams. When the time comes, they will invite the top students to eat and help them bet on the questions.

"I always feel that Keisuke has been too active recently. Is this an illusion?" The guys in the team began to discuss.

Squinting his eyes and watching Keisuke's yellow FD drive away slowly, Shi Hao smiled: "It's a little active, but it's a good thing. Maybe it's just something good recently—Xianta, you and Qisuke Refer a school to study, do you know anything?"

Xian Tai waved his hand to fan the wind: "Brother Qi Jie never told me about it, how would I know?"

It's easy to get off topic when a group of girls chat halfway through, and it's the same with a group of men chatting.At the beginning, it was said that Keisuke had been unusually active recently, but soon turned to the recent haunting on Mount Akagi.

"It is said that more than one person saw it. On the night of driving practice, several guys almost fell asleep for no reason... The strange thing is that they always managed to save the day and go down the mountain safely. It is said that this is the soul of the speeder on Mount Chicheng. Make a fuss, and warn the current speeders not to do something as dangerous as him."

"This kind of thing is too ridiculous. People in our team have no such experience! It should be a strange story, just like the "Legend of the Rain Girl" in Karuizawa a while ago, and several people died. No more After the death, no one will say that Yu Nu did it."

"That's right, where do ghosts and monsters come from in this world, they are all cowards' delusions."

"That's what I said, but some things are still very evil. What happened to our Chicheng this time is not as simple as an illusion or a lie. One of them is still my friend. I know him very well..."

Because there is almost no traffic on the mountain at night, most of these drivers operate at night.On special days like rest days, day and night are reversed, and it is not uncommon to sleep during the day and practice driving at night.And people like redsuns have come from afar, and it is even more impossible to go back after a few laps. In fact, they have long been prepared to spend the whole night here.

At dawn, Takahashi Keisuke decided to go back after the last lap. He had observed the level of local drivers before, and he really couldn't catch his eyes.Originally, he planned not to come to the weekend race next week, but let other drivers in the team come.

However, Takahashi Ryosuke hopes that he will come, so that he can leave a local record that cannot be broken for several years. This is also Takahashi Ryosuke's ambition.Keisuke Takahashi had no problem with this, so he spent the whole night familiarizing himself with the track.

It's just that what Keisuke Takahashi expected was unexpected in the last lap - "What's the situation, 86?"

An unknown car followed, and Keisuke Takahashi was full of confidence at first and wanted to get rid of the other party.It wasn't until I realized that I couldn't get rid of it that I realized that things were not what I imagined.

What made him even more incredible was that he glanced at the other party when he turned the corner, and he, who was familiar with all kinds of cars, immediately recognized that it was an 86!

The 86 is a very old car. Although it is often seen on the road now, it is definitely as rare as a giant panda in the world of mountain road racers!Speed ​​riders pursue speed rather than a means of transportation, so the requirements in this regard are naturally much higher.

The new cars have made great progress not only in terms of horsepower, but also in all aspects, which are not comparable to the old cars at all.

Although everyone says 'the car has no limit, the driver has the limit', but in fact it is the opposite, it should be 'the driver has no limit, the car has the limit'.

Keisuke is not the kind of driver who is obsessed with top-notch cars. He believes that what suits him is the most important.But the so-called suitable for you has actually eliminated some old cars.

Sometimes it is like this, other cars can do things easily, old cars can't do it no matter how good the technology is, some gaps are very intuitive.Even if it is a downhill that requires lower performance of the car and higher technical requirements of the driver, it is the same.

The 86 and FD are definitely cars of two eras, and it is hard to say that there is any comparison between them.Takahashi Keisuke didn't believe that the other party could keep up with him - but what was even more amazing was that the other party even surpassed him!

On the way back to his residence in Maebashi City, he kept replaying the scene of being overtaken by that 86 over and over again in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out no matter what.This kind of confusion has been with him all the time. He wanted to discuss it with his elder brother Ryosuke, but the time was so unfortunate that he could only go to sleep temporarily.

When he was awakened by the alarm clock, he was dazed for a while, then grabbed the alarm clock and looked at the time: "Oops!"

Anna boarded the Shinkansen to Gunma Prefecture on Sunday, because an acquaintance had already said that everything was covered, so she was really not prepared at all.I didn't book a hotel in advance, and I didn't read the travel brochure.But then again, she herself just wanted to escape from the current Tokyo to relax and relax, not for travel.

But she didn't expect that she would wait here at the station—according to the agreement, she sat down in the second seat by the window of a cafe at the station, and put a certain white sun hat on the table.However, no one came to answer for a long time, and the phone couldn't be connected, which really made Anna wonder if she had been let go.

Keisuke Takahashi was also very crazy. He set the alarm clock according to the usual Sunday, but because of the 86 incident last night, he completely forgot to pick up friends today... This is a sad story.

When he hurriedly drove to the station, his head was covered with sweat—no, no, no, it wasn't because he was in a hurry, it was because the weather was hot in summer and there was no air conditioner on the FD.

After all, in order to reduce the weight of the car, the driver usually chooses to remove the heavy air conditioner.

Looking at the second position of the cafe window, the first is a white sun hat, Takahashi Keisuke felt relieved.

At this time, Anna looked out of the window as if feeling something, and happened to meet Keisuke Takahashi's eyes.

Keisuke Takahashi has very good eyesight, probably beyond the level of ordinary people. He can see things that others can't see clearly when racing.But he never felt that his eyesight was too good, otherwise how could he see so clearly.

The summer sun reflected on the young girl's face through the window, there was a small piece of light, and under this light, the fine hairs on the girl's face seemed to be clearly visible.The slender eyelashes drooped slightly with the blink of an eye, as if they were golden.

'咚咚咚', the heartbeat is very fast, like driving the car to the highest speed when going downhill on a mountain road...
