After promising Kinoshita Mai that she would never tell anyone about her ugly behavior just now, the child's appearance finally returned to normal.
The blush on her cheeks faded a little.
There is no more "steam" coming out of the head.
Because Aoto and Mai Kinoshita happened to be going the same way and both wanted to leave the trail, it was natural for them to walk side by side.
The atmosphere between the two of them was... unprecedentedly awkward.
Not yet completely over the "Meow Meow Meow" incident just now, and having only met Qingto once, Kinoshita Mai tightly hugged the big cloth bag that contained something unknown in her arms, with her shoulders
Shrinking, head drooped, lips pursed tightly, the blush still remaining on the cheeks, nervousness and shyness visible to the naked eye.
Kinoshita Mai said nothing, and Qingteng didn't know what to say to Kinoshita Mai.
Qingdeng is the worst at dealing with girls.
In my previous life, due to various reasons such as my upbringing environment and personal personality, I didn't even have a female friend, let alone a girlfriend.
My experience in interacting with women... is almost non-existent.
However, although I have no female friends, I do have a lot of male friends who have thicker arms and waists and bigger biceps.
Because he had never had female friends since he was a child, and had no relatives such as sisters, Qingdeng was very bad at getting along with women.
What should I talk to them about, what do they like to talk about... I am completely confused.
And in the memory of "Original Tachibana Aoden", there is no knowledge about "the topics that girls of this era love to talk about" and Kii...
If we just keep talking to this child without talking to each other, the atmosphere will be really suffocatingly awkward... Qingto, who doesn't want the atmosphere to remain awkward like this, looks at Mai Kinoshita out of the corner of his eye and racks his brains to think about something.
Suitable topic.
I looked at Kinoshita Mai with my peripheral vision for a long time, but the topic did not occur to me, and my thoughts drifted to other places.
——Look carefully...this girl does look very cute...
I was in a hurry at Qianshiwu the day before yesterday, so I didn't have time to take a closer look at this girl's appearance.
Now after taking a closer look, I realize that this child's appearance is indeed outstanding.
Smooth black hair is pulled into the most popular hairstyle for women of this era: Shimada bun.
Wearing a kimono with bright red as the main color and white as embellishments, for no reason, she always felt that this kind of red clothes suited her very well.
Eyebrows, nose, mouth, eyes...all the lines on the face are so graceful and delicate.
But compared to her cute face, it is obviously her skin and her breasts that attract more attention.
She has perfectly fair and soft skin, and it feels like even if you throw a piece of rough sandpaper on her face, the sandpaper will slide away from her smooth skin.
She is obviously so young, she is only 15 or 6 years old at most, but her development is surprisingly good.
Kimono is a kind of clothing that can make D look like C, C looks like B, B looks like A, and A looks like a crossdresser.
Although he was wearing such small clothes, the child's chest still looked bulging.
Kinoshita has thin arms and legs. Unless you see it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that such a slender figure could have such a great mind.
While Qingto was still sighing silently in his heart and praising Kinoshita Mai's beauty, all of a sudden - he suddenly heard Kinoshita Mai's unique weak voice, like a mosquito humming, coming from beside him again.
The first person to break the suffocating silence was the fearful Mai Kinoshita:
"Well... I'm sorry... You have obviously visited our store, but I don't know your name yet..."
Ah...that's right...when I was at Senshiya the day before yesterday, I seemed to have only introduced myself to Mr. Kiryu...
After Yu secretly yelled "That's sloppy", Qingdeng cleared his throat:
"Sorry, I seem to have forgotten to tell you my name."
"My name is Tachibana Aoshinobu, and I am currently returning to Feng Gong in Kitabanshocho."
"Tachibana Aoden?"
Kinoshita Mai raised her head and gave Qingden a long, curious look.
"What's wrong?" Qingto, who didn't know why Kinoshita looked at him like that, asked in confusion.
"Ah...nothing..."
After Aoto turned his attention, Kinoshita Mai, who did not dare to look at Aoto because of his fear of strangers, hurriedly lowered his head again, looking at his tiny toes wrapped in white socks, and continued to say softly:
"When I went to the Wu clothing store to pick up the Wu clothing, I heard some people discussing you in the store..."
"They said: A fellow named Ju Qingden solved a murder case in less than an hour yesterday..."
[Note: Wu Fu: Kimono. There was no such term as Kimono in ancient Japan]
After hearing this, Qingdeng burst into laughter: "I see... did yesterday's incident spread in the market so quickly..."
"I didn't expect you to be that Tachibana Aoden..." Aoden vaguely saw a smile of admiration on Kinoshita Mai's face, "You are so amazing, you were able to break the sect in less than an hour.
Murder case..."
"Ah, this is just my luck." Qingdeng said casually with a smile.
Although they only chatted briefly with Kinoshita Mai, these simple exchanges successfully relieved the awkward atmosphere between the two. Kinoshita Mai's originally tense shoulders also relaxed a lot, and her voice
It has also become larger and clearer.
Taking advantage of the fact that the atmosphere between the two has become much better now, Qingdeng "takes advantage of the victory and pursues it".
What Kinoshita Mai said just now helped him find a very good starting point for the topic——
"You just said that you went to the Wu clothing store to pick up Wu clothing. So, is the cloth bag you are holding in your hand the same as the clothes you just got back from the store?" Qingden asked Kinoshita Wu, who was holding the clothes in both hands.
The cloth bag pursed its lips.
Kinoshita Mai nodded: "This is the gift I prepared for my friend."
"friend?"
"Well, I have a very important friend. Because of some things, she and her grandfather are moving from Osaka to Edo to live here for a long time." Mai Kinoshita, who was still staring at her toes, said slowly, "I won't leave.
If something unexpected happens, they will arrive in Edo in about ten days."
"Tomorrow I will leave Edo and meet them at Fujisawa-juku on the Tokaido Road."
"I was originally worried that the Wu server I prepared for my friend would not be able to catch up with the production..."
"But fortunately, the Wufu shop finally succeeded in preparing my custom-made Wufu before tomorrow."
"You want to go out of the city and go as far as Fujisawa-juku to meet your friend?" Aonto exclaimed in a low voice.
To greet him so far out of the city...the etiquette is so full.
"Well... after all, she is my most important friend." Kinoshita Mai showed a shy smile with a bit of excitement and expectation.
