They first drove on the highway for more than half an hour, then drove on the country road for almost an hour, plus the time spent in Chiba City, by the time they arrived at their destination, it was already two hours later.

Fortunately, they had lunch before leaving the city, otherwise they would have spent the whole journey hungry.

I see. No wonder we have to leave early.

Xia Zhi thought to himself.

But then again, it’s called the “next town”, but it’s such a long drive, it can’t really be considered “next town” at all, right?

After all, for this country, in some special places, a two-hour drive is enough to cross the entire country... For example, last time Xia Zhi himself, didn't he almost fly out of the border and run to the high seas?

As he was thinking this, Ai Lu Ke got out of the car and looked at the beautiful picture of fields, mountains and sky in the distance. He couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, his eyes full of novelty and amazement.

"Summer Solstice, Summer Solstice, so beautiful!"

To the star god girl who has lived in a closed star ship since childhood, everything in the world is so new, and because she is by the side of Xia Zhi, all this newness seems so beautiful.

And the person who brings her all this freshness and beauty is, of course, the person she loves the most.

Therefore, Ailu Ke was also happy to share his happiness and joy with the boy.

Although Xia Zhi did not find this scene new, he could more or less understand the girl's current mood... It should be said that being valued so much by the girl was already a very touching and happy thing.

only……

"I was so listless in the car, but I became full of energy as soon as I got off."

Looking at the Star God Girl in front of him who was full of energy and seemed to be resurrected, Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

Is this the Star God’s recovery ability?

...That's true. After all, I seem to have experienced this kind of recovery ability myself just now.

While thinking in his heart, Xia Zhi rubbed Ai Lu Ke's head and asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

Although she had eaten lunch, two hours had passed after all. Besides, the girl wasn't in a very good mood during the whole journey. Eating something should help her recover, right?

...But now it seems that she doesn't need to recover anything.

"Okay, okay!" Ai Lu Ke never refuses delicious food.

It should be said that this is also one of the important factors why she thinks the world is so beautiful.

"Where's Hubie?"

Xia Zhi raised his head and looked at Hubie beside him and asked.

"Hubby... no need..."

Hubie shook his head slightly, placed his hand gently on his lower abdomen, and replied in a low voice:

"It's... bloated... I'm full..."

Summer Solstice: "..."

Could you please not say something that could be misunderstood... Although he really wanted to say that, this time, he really couldn't say it.

After all, it’s not a “misunderstanding” at all.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but recall the scene at that time.

How should I put it... Although the first half is very exciting, the second half is not much worse.

As expected of an Ex-Machina, even if you just sit still, you can still have a different experience. If the sedan encounters bumps on a small road, it will be even more... ahem.

Xia Zhi coughed lightly and turned his gaze to Yang Nai not far away.

"Just leave it to me."

Yang Nai noticed his gaze and smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Before coming here, I had already arranged everything."

It can be seen that she was indeed very attentive to this "gathering", and did not mind showing this in front of Xia Zhi at all.

——Look, I have prepared so much for you.

The girl's words seemed to say something like this.

This kind of little thought is very familiar to Yang Nai, but it is different from the previous situation, or rather, the purpose is different.

Of course, the intentional expression of thoughts that are not sincere will cause disgust from others, but if it is seen as the little tricks of the girl in Love 203 who hopes to be liked and praised by the person she cares about, it seems a little too cute.

"The temple fair won't start for some time, so let's go to the hotel and drop off our things first... I've also asked the boss to help prepare some local snacks."

"snack!?"

Ai Luke's eyes immediately lit up and he quickly pulled Xia Zhi's sleeve.

"Xiazhi, let's go quickly!"

"Ai Lu Ke is still a child..."

Seeing the Star God Girl getting excited just by hearing something she liked, Xia Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

"By the way, that hotel has a hot spring. If you are tired from the ride, you can take a bath and rest."

"spa?"

Xia Zhi's ears twitched slightly, and she turned around to look at the boy and said seriously: "I think Ai Lu Ke is right, let's go quickly, brother."

Summer Solstice: "..."

You still call others children, aren't you the same?

Chapter 429: Can You See Ghosts on Ghost Festival (Physical Means)

Speaking of temple fairs, apart from the time when Xia Zhi dragged him to attend one, Xia Zhi himself rarely came to such places.

It’s not that I don’t like it or anything, I’m just simply not interested.

This lively event that combines fireworks, snacks, entertainment and dancing is essentially no different from a more lively gathering in the eyes of Xia Zhi, who has little interest in religion.

Since there is nothing special about it, there is naturally no need to attend it specially, right?

"After saying so much, brother, aren't you just not fond of being in places with so many people?" Xia Zhi on the side complained, exposing the boy's cover-up.

"Don't make it sound like I'm a gloomy person." Xia Zhi said, tapping her forehead lightly.

"Oh, that's how it is..." Xia Zhi covered her head, looked at him dissatisfiedly and said, "Brother, you didn't have any good classmates in the class before, and you didn't participate in any club activities after class. You even liked to hide away and eat lunch alone..."

It should be said that if the boy had not had more and more friends around him recently, she would have been really worried whether her brother had any psychological problems.

"Our teacher said that humans are social and gregarious animals, and they naturally desire to be loved and recognized by others."

So, if someone does not meet this definition in all aspects, can we say that he is no longer a human being?

Xia Zhi tilted her head slightly, wondering in her heart.

"Your brother is a god now." Xia Zhi replied.

Again.

Xia Zhi wrinkled her nose and muttered softly, "If you are really a god, how about fulfilling my wish?"

"What is your wish?"

"This... makes the sun rise from the west?"

Are you dissatisfied with the way the sun rises in the east?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

But... coming to think of it, if it's just this wish, it doesn't seem impossible to do it.

It's a bit troublesome, but...

In his mind, he recalled the appearance of a traffic light that he had contained in his personal universe.

...If that's what's needed, it shouldn't be that difficult, right?

He thought to himself with some hesitation.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Just as he was thinking about this matter seriously, the paper sliding door of the room was suddenly opened, and Yang No's voice came from outside the door.

"Summer Solstice~"

Ai Lu Ke trotted into Xia Zhi's arms and said happily: "The hot spring is so comfortable, warm and bubbling!"

"I heard that something nice smelling was added to it. Can Xia Zhi smell it?"

As she spoke, the girl stretched out her slender, white arms in front of him.

Xia Zhi took a quick sniff... To be honest, apart from the shower gel and the special fragrance that Ailuke already had on his body, he didn't smell any other scent.

But looking at the girl's expectant eyes, he nodded and said, "It smells good."

"Hehe~"

Eluke showed a happy expression, but then said with a little regret:

"It's a pity that Xia Zhi can't come together..."

Regarding this point, I actually feel very sorry.

Xia Zhi rubbed the girl's head, thinking this in his heart, his eyes fell on Xia Zhi beside him.

If you ask why Xia Zhi, who had been looking forward to taking a hot spring bath, did not stay with Aluko and the others but stayed in the room... it was not because she wanted to accompany Xia Zhi, but simply because she had just entered the hot spring not long ago and was completely unconscious.

Obviously this doesn't happen when I take a bath at home...

"It's really useless." Xia Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

"I don't want to either..." the girl said softly with her lips pouted.

It was embarrassing enough to accidentally faint in the hot spring, and then I needed help from Sister Yangno and the others to change clothes, which made me feel even more embarrassed.

"Don't worry about that."

Yang No came forward and sat down next to the girl, and comforted her softly like an older sister: "We are not the ones who helped you change your clothes."

Of course it would be embarrassing to ask someone you don't know to change your underwear, even between girls, but...

"…If it's between family members, there won't be so many concerns, right?"

So this is ah……

Xia Zhi subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest lightly.

Just like what Yang No-nee said, if it’s family...eh?

As if she realized something, she suddenly froze.

After all, who are your family members?

Her eyes fell on the boy sitting opposite her. After a moment of silence...

"Bam—"

Ah, there's steam coming out.

Looking at the girl's cheeks suddenly turning red and white steam seemed to be coming out of her head, Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

……

After clarification, Xia Zhi finally calmed down after knowing that it was not Xia Zhi but Xu Bi who helped her change her clothes.

How should I put it? Although I already consider Hubie and Eluko as my family, when the word "family" is mentioned, the first person that comes to my mind is my brother.

There was nothing that could be done about it. Xia Zhi knew that it was her own problem, so she did not blame Sister Yang No for not explaining herself clearly.

...Or rather, she was too embarrassed to say such words.

"There's still some time before the temple fair starts." Yang Nai said this after looking at the clock hanging on the wall and calculating the time in his mind.

"." "Is it too early?" Xueno asked.

"After all, the time spent in traffic jams is also taken into account..."

Traffic jams are normal during holidays, but a smooth journey like this was completely beyond Yang Noi's expectations.

The result is that they have a considerable amount of free time.
