Under the guidance of the lights in front of us, a torii gate finally appeared in front of us.
The image of a torii in Japan is very similar to the ancient Chinese archway, which is usually the entrance to a shrine. At the same time, it also means that the front is the domain of the gods.
However, Beishan Jinghuang knows very well that there is no god in this world.
However, "things" that are opposed to God do exist.
Ahead is Kitayama Shrine, which is where the Kitayama family receives famous clients from all over Japan. There is no doubt that most of the clients who come here are wealthy people. It is said that after the defeat in the war
Later, because Kitayama Shrine was far away from the urban area, it was basically not affected by US air raids, and it was not greatly affected after the war. Before the lost twenty years came, in an era when the land price in Tokyo was enough to buy all the American territory, the family
There are a large number of properties almost all over Japan, from Okinawa in the south to Hokkaido in the north, there are properties owned by the Kitayama family.
After driving a Nissan sedan and entering the interior of the torii, Kitayama Jinghuang recalled the horrific memories of his childhood again.
At this time, wedding decorations have been pre-arranged everywhere in the shrine, and it is obvious that a wedding with traditional Japanese folk customs will be held here.
The car door opened.
As soon as Kitayama Jinghuang got out of the car, Feimura Hanabi walked up.
"Miss Jinghuang." She bowed to Beishan Jinghuang: "Please follow me to see Lord Zhenxin."
Kitayama Zhenxin, Jinghuang's grandfather, is the family's top talker. Although he usually lives in seclusion here, it is said that people from the National Assembly also interact with him quite a bit.
And he is the person who scares Beishan Jinghuang the most in this place.
"This is an order?"
When Jing Huang spoke, his tone was extremely cold and without any emotion.
Himura Hanabi continued to bow and said: "Yes, it is Lord Shinshin's order."
"I do not want to go."
When Jing Huang said this, her mother also got out of the car and said to her: "Jing Huang, since grandpa asked you to go, you can go. From now on, you will be the heir of this shrine, so..."
"I do not want to go!"
Jinghuang didn't want to see his grandfather at all.
She has been living to this day, and the time she spends with her parents and brother is extremely limited, all because of the restrictions imposed by her grandfather. Because of his presence, no one dares to disobey his orders, even if they want to go abroad to visit their parents.
Both my brother and I need approval.
Jinghuang doesn't want to inherit this shrine and become a shrine maiden. She doesn't even have any nostalgia for the country Japan. She would rather want to live in China. Anyway, she is half Japanese.
Not long ago, China released a draft for public comment on the regulations on permanent residence for foreigners. When she saw this information on the Internet, Jing Huang was very happy. She plans to live in China after graduating from college. She will make money by herself.
She wanted to give it to her family and didn't want to owe them a penny anymore. She wanted to leave the country forever. When she got to China, her grandfather's influence in Japanese politics would be meaningless.
"Lord Zhenxin lets you go..."
Hanabi Heimura is still talking to herself like a repeater.
At this moment, Beishan Jinghuang couldn't help but feel even more bored.
"I dont go!"
Then she walked straight towards the front of the shrine. As she walked, she suddenly stopped again.
There really hasn't been any change here. After all, she has lived here for eight years. It can be said that she spent most of her childhood in this place.
A gust of wind blew over, making her feel a little bit chilly for a moment.
She looked at a path in front of her. Every time her brother and her parents came here from China to visit her, she liked to take her brother on that path. There was a lush green belt near the path, and even now, that green belt is still there.
exist.
"There is actually no change at all..."
Beishan Jinghuang slowly walked towards the green belt.
Because it is close to the entrance of the shrine torii gate, and hiding here is usually not seen by others, she often likes to run here with her brother. When her brother usually comes here, it is New Year's time, and many people come here on New Year's Day.
Come here to visit the shrine.
At that time, through my grandfather’s connections in politics and financial groups, wealthy people who encountered “trouble” would come here. There were even foreigners. And only those with money and power would come here.
Understand the affairs of the Beishan family and have no doubts about the family's "ability".
She and her brother would always be here, watching people coming to the shrine with requests from the family. The person who acted as the witch at that time was her deceased aunt, Kitayama Yukieda. Before Aunt Yukieda passed away, she faced the scene
For Huang, she is the real mother.
Even now, Aunt Xingzhi's importance in Jinghuang's heart is higher than that of her real mother. It even took her a long time to realize that Aunt Xingzhi was not her real mother.
And every time... my aunt always finds the green belt, and then tells herself and her brother to stop staying here...
Even now, she can clearly recall all the details of that time.
Jinghuang walked towards the lush green belt step by step, slowly walked around and walked to the back.
I really miss it...
After that incident, she finally left here, even if it was New Year's Day, she would never come back here, but would go to other shrines for New Year's worship.
She slowly squatted down...because her height was barely over 1.6 meters, and her body could still be completely covered by the green belt at this time.
At that time... Aunt Xingzhi would always walk behind her at this time without making a sound, and then pat her on the shoulder...
For her, her aunt's treatment of her can really be described as "treating her as her own child", without the slightest exaggeration. After discovering that she was infertile, her aunt decided not to get married anymore. No matter now or in the past, Japan
The status of women in society is extremely low, and it may be really difficult for women who have lost their fertility to get married.
Just as she was thinking...she suddenly felt a hand tapping her right shoulder!
"I told you, I won't go out to see anyone..."
She stood up, and just when she turned around, she saw...
There is no one behind you!
…
Tokyo Narita Airport.
It seems that because the Olympic Games are approaching, the big screen at the airport is playing advertisements for the Japanese Olympic Games, and even looks back at the 1964 Olympic Games in the past.
Dong Xie and Dong Ning took their luggage from the check-in area and originally planned to go out directly, but at this time they stood in front of the big screen with interest and watched the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.
Dong Xie couldn't help but think of the 2008 Olympics. At that time, he was chasing Xie Ruoni and made an appointment with her to go to the capital to watch the Olympic opening ceremony. At that time, Qiu Feng said that he had connections, so Dong Xie asked him to sell 2 opening ceremony photos.
Give him the tickets. Qiu Feng was so hyped at that time. He thought he would definitely get the tickets. He boasted in front of Xie Ruoni that he would take her to watch the opening ceremony at the Bird's Nest. Unexpectedly, he didn't buy it at all in the end...
At this time, he really didn't want Xie Ruoni to come over. If he met her, it would be too embarrassing. Beishan Jinglong, this guy, really made his own decisions, who let him make such a random matchup.
Then, Dong Xie took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
Soon, the phone was connected.
"Hello, this is Kitayama Shrine. I am Hanabi Himura, the steward of the Kitayama family. Please tell me."
"Well..." Dong Xie then handed the phone to Dong Ning. He didn't speak Japanese, and his English was dry. At this time, he could only hand it to Ah Ning.
Dong Ning took the phone and started talking to the other party in fluent English.
"Hello, we are Dong Xie and Dong Ning who made an appointment before. We want to..."
"I remember, Mr. Dong and Miss Dong, right? You two are friends of Master Beishan. You can come directly to the shrine. I will pick you up in advance."
"Well, it doesn't have to be so troublesome..."
"You two are outsiders. To get to the shrine, you must cross the sea of lost trees. If there is no one to guide you, once you get lost, you will never be able to get out again."
Just as Dong Ning was about to say something, she heard a voice coming from her mobile phone. Although Dong Ning didn't speak Japanese very well, she had watched so many Japanese animations and dramas that she could still understand simple conversations.
What the other party said was: "Who, who touched me from behind just now?"
