Survive the hard way in an otome game

With no one who absolutely believed by his side, Rei Fuguya could only endure the strong uneasiness in his heart, pretending to be nonchalant, and followed Mori Kogoro to find his daughter.

"Here, here!" Mao Lilan waved his hands, and the two uncomfortable people who had just arrived in Shimada City shuttled through the crowded crowd, and finally stood in front of Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko who had already arrived.

"Eh? You're not... Hiss—" Suzuki Sonoko pointed at Furutani Rei. She felt that she had seen this person before, but she really couldn't remember where.

Jiang Gu Ling, who was still being watched just now, immediately cheered up and put on an innocent and puzzled expression: "This lady?"

Suzuki Sonoko frowned, trying to find out the origin of this man from her huge circle of knowledge, but to no avail. After all, as the second lady of the Suzuki consortium, she had met so many people, it was impossible to remember all of them. live.

"I think you look a lot like someone I know." Suzuki Sonoko said.

"Really?" Jiang Gu Ling continued to play dumb.

"He's my apprentice, Toru Amuro, and he's working at the Poirot Cafe downstairs now." Kogoro Mori said at the right time, and with his endorsement, Sonoko Suzuki seemed to really believe that the man in front of her had never met her before. face to face.

Or maybe just another hybrid.

"Xiaolan! Do you think this gentleman is also suitable for introduction to sister Xiyan?"

The Shimada family has done a lot of work for the Fireworks Festival. The most suitable places to watch the fireworks are crowded with small vendors, and the voices are noisy. Suzuki Sonoko did not deliberately lower the volume in order to let Mao Lilan, who was two steps away, hear what she said. , Jiang Gu Ling heard her words clearly.

"Okay, Sonoko, Ms. Shimada doesn't have such an idea yet! Didn't the Hagiwara police officer you introduced last time also die without a problem?"

When did Kenji Hagihara and Sonoko Suzuki meet?Could it be that it was the time when Sonoko Suzuki went to visit Yuyan Shimada?It was not convenient for him to come out that day, so he asked Yan Er to go.

Ms. Suzuki actually introduced Kenji to Yuyan Shimada!

Fortunately, Kenji did not take action.

What Rei Fuguya doesn't know is that Kenji Hagiwara will never act again, because he and Yuyan Shimada have already played the ending of "The Grace of Saving Life", Kenji Hagiwara did not choose to promise each other in this life, but chose In the next life, the spring will repay each other.

"But Mr. Amuro is really handsome! And it's from Yuyan Shimada's ex-boyfriend! Blonde mixed race, but Mr. Amuro is much better than Mr. Shirato!" Suzuki Sonoko said to himself.

Shimada Xiyan said that she is a collateral branch of the Shimada family, and she is not the head of the family who took office today, so the family should not interfere too much in the choice of her partner, as long as Shimada Xiyan likes it.

Rei Fuguya stood aside. He originally wanted to ask who Shimada Yuyan's ex-boyfriend was. After all, for someone like Shimada Yuyan who would blush when touched, there shouldn't be such a thing as an ex-boyfriend.

When Sonoko Suzuki uttered the words "Mr. Shirato", Fuguya Rei was relieved.

It turns out that Xiyan's so-called ex-boyfriend is me.

Shimada Xiyan prepared enough admission tickets before disappearing. Although the big screens of various important landmarks will also broadcast the live broadcast, since these friends from afar have already arrived in Shimada City, they should be given the highest level treatment.

What is the highest level of treatment at the Shimada Hanabi Festival?Nature is the ticket to the succession ceremony.

In order to ensure the success of the succession, the Shimada family did not sell admission tickets, but determined the number of people in the form of invitations, and those invited were all celebrities in various fields.

"Grandma Xiaoye said that the Shimada family is the emperor of Shimada City. It is true." Suzuki Sonoko discussed with Mao Lilan in a low voice. Among all of them, except Uncle Maoli, who wears a suit all year round Besides, not wearing formal attire, so it looks out of place for such an occasion.

Jiang Gu Ling watched everything in front of him silently, the sound of fireworks outside the window was continuous, and when the bell rang at six o'clock in the afternoon, the succession ceremony officially began.

A dozen or so maidens dressed in red and white maiden costumes came up from the stairs on both sides. They held strange musical instruments and danced for blessings. The sound of bells jingled, calling for the gods in the distance.

Then came the sound of monks chanting sutras. The leading man looked quite old and should be the abbot of a certain temple.

After all the blessing ceremonies were over, the new head of the Shimada family appeared.

"We have seen this dress in advance! It really looks like it is on the upper body..." Mao Lilan happily told Mo Li Kogoro about his situation a few days ago, and suddenly saw the face of the new owner.

It is not completely traditional to paint the face white, the new owner just painted a very delicate makeup, the black hair is tied up high, and a white petunia-like decoration is inserted in the bun.

"Yuanzi, is she..." Mao Lilan opened her eyes wide, trying to take a closer look at Patriarch Xin's face.

"This is simply... too outrageous!" Suzuki Sonoko also froze in place, Yuan Shan and Ye missed the chance to see the face of the new Patriarch, and kept asking why the two close friends around him were so shocked.

"The new owner who just walked over..."

"It's Miss Shimada!"

For those who participated in the trip to Osaka, Shimada Yuyan is just a professional woman who is a few years older than them. Both the acquisition of shares and the defense of Shimada Jewelry were repeatedly learned by the younger chaebol heirs.

So Suzuki Sonoko always thought that Shimada Yuyan was just a collateral branch of the Shimada family, and it had nothing to do with the so-called new head of the family anyway.

But who would have thought that this Shimada Yuyan, who kept saying that she had nothing to do with the Shimada Hanabi Festival, was actually the new family herself!

Furitani Rei was fascinated by the swaying Shimada Yuyan. He had seen countless women in kimonos, but Shimada Yuyan was the most extravagant.

He has also seen many girls wearing kimonos to attend coming-of-age ceremonies. Most of those people are cute, while married people wearing kimonos have another kind of charm-mature and dignified.

Only Shimada Xiyan, after she put on the kimono, she was very flamboyant, and she slowly walked to her position step by step, and everyone admired her.

Her appearance made everyone clearly understand how much energy was contained in this petite body.

As a monk who watched Shimada Xiyan grow up, Sora was full of hope for the new patriarch, and soon finished the succession ceremony, letting Shimada Xiyan go through the process with a load of 25 kilograms.

After getting permission, Shimada Xiyan returned to the curtain with the support of several people, and immediately took off the heavy twelve sheets, forming an empty cicada.

Because there are too many layers of clothes, after taking off the clothes, the thick clothes can stand on the ground, as if the people in the clothes suddenly disappeared, just like the summer cicadas shed their skin, and the newborn treatment has left the trunk , but the cicada slough remains on the trunk.

Shimada Xiyan just looked back briefly, and was dragged to another hanger. This was a sleeve that had been ordered for her in advance. Except for the belt, she was dressed in white. Just like her name, she was the whole Shimada The whitest flower at the Hanabi Festival.

The traditional Shakuhachi sound came to mind, and the ready-made kendo field had already been drawn, and the Shanshen Dynasty had been waiting for a long time. Both of them were wearing long sleeves, but only black and white.

Hattori didn't expect that he could see the kendo competition in Hanamura, so he immediately regained his energy and watched the movements of both sides intently.

Yugao Shimada in a white kimono took the lead in attacking, while the woman with black sleeves started her own defense.

Ms. Shimada pressed on every step. Compared with the kendo competition between middle school students and elementary school students, this competition is not only gorgeous, but also more aggressive. It is a competition of masters.

"Hey, who is the person who is fighting Miss Shimada?"

"Let me take a look..." Yuan Shan and Ye opened the Shimada City travel guide and looked up the list: "It's... Shan Shenchao."

Mountain God Dynasty!

No wonder Ms. Shimada was able to take the initiative to meet Mabe Kunihiko without looking back. Although the weapon she was holding was Wakizashi, it was not much different from the weapon used by Jianjian, only the length was different.

Except for a slight adjustment according to the length of the weapon, many moves are the same.

If Sanjinchao was Miss Shimada's teacher, then everything would make sense.

"I heard that Ms. Shimada is a student of the first-class kendo master Shan Shenchao, and she really lives up to her reputation." Fugu Ling was full of energy.

"That is to say, so Shirato-san really missed a perfect partner!" Every time Suzuki Sonoko saw Furutani Rei, he thought he had seen Shiratou Xingzuru, but there was no need for Shirato-san to finish another coffee The waiter of the shop, so Toru Amuro and Yukizuru Shirato should not be alone.

Rei Fuguya didn't expect Sonoko Suzuki to still be thinking about Yukizuru Shirato, but he also thought Sonoko Suzuki just wanted to introduce him to Yuyan Shimada, so he nodded immediately.

"Clang!" With the sound of the last piece of wood colliding, the kendo demonstration match came to an end. Although there was no winner, as a kendo practitioner, Hattori Heiji still saw the superb skills of the two.

It was a bona fide exhibition match, with neither side pulling out all the stops.

Next came archery.

This was originally Shimada Hanzo's practice project, but Shimada Yuyan had never practiced it. In addition, her left arm had not fully recovered, and it was still difficult to draw a bow and shoot an arrow. The elders also wanted to cancel this project, but they were rejected. It was Shimada Yuyan's objection.

The elders knew that Shimada Xiyan was competing with Shimada Hanzo, so they let her go.

Shimada Xiyan fired the high-quality bow and arrow made by her family, stood at the position that had been calibrated, and stared straight at the target in the distance.

The left hand, which was able to move freely just now, was aching under the strong bowstring, but Yuyan Shimada did not let go. Instead, she took a deep breath, tightened her arm again, and flicked her eagle-like eyes to the side, just in time to meet the bow. Gu Ling's eyes.

The purple-gray eyes were unexpectedly conspicuous in the crowd. Although it was only a short glance, Shimada Xiyan still saw him, and by chance, he also saw her.

The arrow feather pierced the wind and hit the bull's-eye.

Fugu Rei smiled: He had known for a long time that Shimada Xiyan was no worse than his elder brothers.

Now it is even more proven.

Became the queen of someone present.
