I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 206 This defeat is not due to war

The bright morning sun flows on the girl's golden hair, each strand is clearly visible. Occasionally a few strands playfully break free from their restraints, just enough to add a touch of casualness to her noble elegance.

Like flowing gold, shining brightly.

Suddenly, the scene in front of Dong Yeyu seemed to be really distorted. Behind him, a towering castle broke out of the ground, and the earth shook.

After the dust settled, the mottled exterior walls and broken towers were revealed, standing silently and tenaciously in the corner of the world of eternal night.

In the endless starry sky, an illusory moon cast a cold light like silver frost. The dreamy princess raised her head slightly, with bright eyes and white teeth, and stretched out her soft hand to him.

"It would be great if there was a sacred device like a camera that could freeze time, so that I could record your current demeanor."

Dong Ye Yu smiled and returned the greeting, sighing from the bottom of his heart that sometimes people are really strange creatures.

If I had met Miss Moon Witch at this age in my previous life, I would have started pursuing her madly in less than three seconds.

It's just that at that time, in order to show that I was mentally mature, I had already taken out the Holy Separator to cut off my middle school self, and I probably couldn't resonate with Miss Moon Witch.

In the end, people are troubled throughout their lives by the things they could not obtain when they were young.

If it weren't for the deep blessing of Mr. Dump Truck, I would probably occasionally wake up in the middle of the night after a tiring day of playing the role of a corporate slave, looking at the moonlight quietly shining through the window screen and recalling this wonderful girl.

Miss Moon Witch may be a little bit childish, but her serious attitude, coupled with her dreamy elf-like appearance, can easily make people curious about her fictional world.

Then explore and sink into her world.

Therefore, it is not wrong in a sense that she claims to be born at the beginning of the world. The identity of the Moon Witch was indeed born along with that fantasy world.

She was the creator there.

But now, although he has successfully resonated with Miss Moon Witch and is undeniably attracted to her, he has reincarnated as a fox and cultivated himself into a great monster. From then on, humans and monsters have gone their separate ways.

Rather than saying that I am a passer-by who is destined to leave the girl's world one day, it is better to say that I have become a green pine that will never grow old in the girl's life journey.

Even if she walked a long way, when she looked back one day, she would still be standing on the hill, letting the breeze stir the branches and leaves.

Life does not necessarily have to move forward, nor does it have only one path.

Of course, she could also linger and stay under the tree, but the sword of Damocles called time would eventually cut down her mortal head.

Making contact with humans only adds to your loneliness; you should just stand aside and admire quietly.

Dong Ye Yu silently told himself to recite the Sutra of Purity to cut off the thoughts in his mind that wanted to get closer to the girl.

Without the consent of Heavenly Venerable, I probably cannot teach the Shangqing Lingbao Dongxuan Zhenjing, which is the golden elixir that leads to immortality, to others.

And if I were to only teach the Qi-refining techniques that I had learned from the true scriptures and Taoist canons, I might be able to achieve some success, but it would be far from enough for immortality.

In addition, this world does not have abundant spiritual energy, and Ming Jian might not survive even if he practices cultivation.

Unless there is another opportunity, such as the Great Sage letting slip the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill from the mortal world.

However, if you place your hopes of spiritual practice on material things, you probably won't become an immortal.

Since we are destined to separate at some point in the future, it is better not to have any feelings beyond friendship in the first place.

Otherwise, how would I spend the rest of my long life?

Higashino Yu has some obsessive-compulsive disorder. He strives for perfection in everything he does. When playing a game, he has to collect all the items and complete the entire story to feel comfortable, and the same goes for relationships.

camera?

Asumi saw Sanae looking at Higashino Yu's expression for a moment and found that he seemed to simply feel regretful that he could not take a photo of himself.

But hidden beneath that sincere face, his heart must have been in turmoil.

I thought you were really wooden and couldn't see me.

The girl pursed her lips and pulled the ribbon tied into a bow with the hand holding the top hat.

"There is such a holy object in the treasury of the Mirror Moon. As long as Your Excellency Knight fulfills his duties as a knight, it is not impossible for me to give it to you."

it is good!it is good!it is good!
Sony or Nikon? Given the character of Miss Moon Witch, she will surely give away a complete set of high-end accessories including lenses!

Higashino Yu had wanted to own a SLR camera since he was in college in his previous life.

Recording the world, what a wonderful idea, but I was just a poor student at the time and could only look at the shocking numbers on the price list and be deterred.

The advice that photography will make three generations poor and a SLR camera will ruin your life is not false.

Of course, I am still a poor student now, but I have the support of Mirror Moon. It is just an optical electronic product, and I am just selling my head.

"Your generosity is the only inspiration for this country of endless darkness, Your Highness." Dong Ye Yu was as devout as a believer.

This is not a flattery, but a sincere feeling from the bottom of my heart.

After all, in the island country, the only person who can be paid so much money for just playing around with a middle school student is Miss Moon Witch.

She single-handedly supported Dongye City during its difficult days of construction. We can only describe her as great, no further words are needed.

Asuhi saw Sanae putting on her hat proudly and answered seriously.

“Even the enlightenment from the mirror moon needs agents to spread it. The eyes of the people have been covered by the fog for too long. The heavy shackles prevent them from looking up and seeing the miracles from the starry sky.”

Dongye Yu stood in awe, "So the people of the Kingdom of Darkness need the light of enlightenment from the mirror moon, and so does Dongye City. Please follow me, Your Highness."

Ming saw Sanae carefully look at his expression for a few times, nodded slightly, and followed behind him with a smile on her lips and light steps.

She had come up with these words on the spur of the moment while simulating a meeting between the two of them in the car, and it seemed to work quite well, and even His Excellency the Knight seemed to have been inspired by it.

After entering the apartment building, the light dimmed instantly, but it allowed one to have a clearer vision and notice many details.

The peeling wall, the narrow stairs, the dusty handrails and iron railings, the uneven unit door covered with red rust, and the oil-stealing woman holding the lute and half covering her face in the dark corner.
Coming to the balcony corridor on the third floor makes people feel more relaxed. They can temporarily put aside the dirty corners and dilapidated facilities in their sight, and the torii gate on Ayase-zaka is in sight not far away.

Perhaps we should help His Excellency the Knight find a new place to live.

Asuhi saw Sanae gazing at the Torii and thinking about it, she thought of the lonely figure with the cane and felt that she was being a little too cold.

She was a lonely child. Although Asumi Sanae was healthy and had a wealthy family, she was isolated for a long time because she was too immature. Naturally, she could understand Miko's feelings and thoughts.

He became disabled at such a young age and finally met a reliable older brother and friend, so it is normal to be afraid of losing him.

Asumi Sanae sighed and suppressed the thought.

Moreover, moving is something that sounds easy, but it is actually quite troublesome.

Not only do we need to ask for the opinions of the parties involved, but we also need to find a new residence in advance. Our family has many vacant villas all over the country, but there are no villas in Tokyo except the Asumi family.

His Excellency the Knight has the pride of a strong man. If he were asked to leave his fiefdom and live in the Mirror Moon Royal Court, he would definitely be unwilling to do so.

Asumi saw Sanae thinking carefully in her mind and casually entered Higashino Yu's apartment.

The girl's bright eyes looked around, sweeping across the vein-like mold that had begun to spread in the cracks between the ceiling and the walls, and finally stopped on the petite figure in a goose yellow floral dress standing by the small square table.

Why is she here?

Are the two of them alone?

Move! Gotta move! Move now!

An unknown voice screamed in the girl's heart.

What an ugly emotion. Will even I be affected by the kingdom of night after entering the real world?
Miss Moon Witch watched the unspeakable emotions that were growing in her heart with a cold eye. Her expression was not affected. She nodded to Miko in a very restrained and polite manner: "Good morning, Miss Iori."

"Hello."

Miko was mentally prepared for her arrival, so although her response was a little cold, it was not considered rude.

Xiuji had just taken a short nap. When he saw Asumi Sanae, his bird eyes seemed to see a bunch of Fukuzawa Yukichi and he immediately became alert.

"Your humble servant, Tono Shogun Saemon Shukichi, greets His Highness Asumimi!"

Xiuji said loudly in an old and rhythmic voice. It was obviously just a pigeon, and such behavior seemed a little funny, but the tone was very serious and solemn, which made people feel awe-inspiring.

"Any life that can see through the fog and look forward to enlightenment from the mirror moon should be commended, even you are no exception, Xiu Jizaemon."

Asumi Sanae said in a clear and ethereal voice, took out two photos of Fukuzawa Yukichi from her small bag, squatted down, put them on the tatami, and pushed them forward with both hands.

Xiuji was stunned for a second and looked at Dongye Yu.

Seeing him nod, he happily trotted over on his two bird legs, then slid to his knees on the tatami, and knocked his bird head to the ground in front of Fukuzawa Yukichi.

"Your humble servant, Tono Shogun Zaemon Shukichi, would like to thank His Highness for the reward."

After saying this, it happily picked up the money with its beak and put it in its own bird's nest, then flew back to the window frame and squatted there, neither leaning towards Miko nor Asumi Sanae, just like a door god.

A relationship that is only maintained by money will not last long. Miko sat quietly by the side, but although she knew this truth in her heart, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

Higashino Yu, who didn't notice the strange atmosphere at all, took the hat from Asumi Sanae.

But there was no coat rack at home, so he looked around, took a few pieces of toilet paper to pad the hat, and placed it on the clean box where he kept his treasured old things.

Asumi saw Sanae didn't mind the shabby appearance of the Higashino family. She bent down familiarly and gently took off her boots, revealing a small section of her fair ankle.

The black silk socks with mysterious side patterns wrapped up the pair of feet with exquisite arches, and the jade-like toes could be vaguely seen, revealing the flesh color.

She stepped onto the tatami and knelt very neatly on the other side of Higashino Yu, glancing at the exercise book on the small square table.

"Your Excellency the Knight is having a study session with Miss Iori—"

Asumi Sanae suddenly remembered that Higashino Yu had mentioned giving Miko extra lessons before, so she asked, "Is it every week?"

"Every week, but sometimes it's at Miko's house, sometimes it's at my house."

Dong Yeyu sat between the two girls and smiled: "As for the study session, there are only two people, so it's not really a study session."

"If there's one more person, we'll have learned it, right?" Asumi Sanae said softly.

Miko turned to the next page of the book and said casually, "I heard that Miss Asami's grades are very good. Does she still need to attend the study session?"

"If you're just talking about the need for a study session, I naturally don't have one. But Your Excellency the Knight is aiming for the Red Gate, so perhaps you need the forbidden knowledge of the Royal Court."

During the Edo period on the island nation, it was a special custom for feudal lords to build a gate to their temples when they married.

The construction of the Gomori-den Gate followed the architectural style of the Yakui-mon Gate. In accordance with the custom of marrying a wife from the Shogun's family at that time, the gate was painted red, so it was commonly known as the Akamon Gate.

According to ancient island customs, once the gate of the amulet is damaged by a disaster, it cannot be rebuilt.

The Akamon Gate of the University of Tokyo is the only surviving amulet gate with a history of over a hundred years. It is extremely rare for an island country that has suffered many disasters, and has been designated as a national treasure.

Over time it has become a symbol of the University of Tokyo, and being admitted to the University of Tokyo is also called "crossing the Akagi", which probably also has the meaning of "leaping over the dragon gate".

Asumi saw that Sanae's tone was very sincere, and Miko was unable to refute it after hearing it. She pursed her lips slightly and fell silent.

It is undeniable that although my deviation value is very good in terms of study, I really can't provide any help to Higashino Nissan who wants to enter the University of Tokyo. After all, I am only in junior high school.

Higashino Yu was somewhat tempted when he heard this. He really wanted to study with Asumi Sanae and get some free tutoring materials at the same time.

But after all, I am tutoring Miko, and Grandpa Iori has done me a favor and spent money on me. If anyone wants to join in, they still need to ask Miko's opinion.

"If His Highness wants to attend the study session, what do you think, Miko?"

Miko was silent for two seconds after hearing this. She wanted to refuse outright, but that would make her look petty, and Higashino Nissan really wanted to be admitted to the University of Tokyo.
Furthermore, if she didn't agree, maybe Higashino Nissan would study with her alone, wouldn't that be even worse?
After all, I can't completely occupy Dongye Nissan's weekend time.

She was troubled for a moment, then lowered her brows and said, "If it can help Dongye Nissan, I have no objection."

When Asuhi saw Sanae hearing this, her clear eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts spread a smile, and she said softly: "Then I will bother Miss Iori and Sir Knight from now on."

Xiuji, who was squatting on the window frame, saw this scene and sighed slightly in his heart. Miss Miko's defeat could only be said to be innocent.

Having protected Miko for so long, he still has a good impression of this lovely girl. If she becomes the mistress of the Tono Shogunate in the future, he would be happy to see it happen.
