I'm a weird expert in Japan

I didn't expect that Yoko would deny my side so straightforwardly. Without fully understanding the situation and only knowing that the mother of this "fake" Kazusa was also Touma Yoko, she easily denied my other side's behavior.

Chapter 171 Chapter 2 You and I Are in the Same Team ()

She had just said that morning, "Neither side is wrong, it's just that the results are different."

"You want to use what I said this morning to refute me?" Yaozi raised her eyebrows. She waved her hands embarrassedly, "Forget it, forget it."

"I can take back what I said." Hesa ​​was helpless.

She thought she had underestimated Yoko's moral integrity.

"Just by looking at you now... I understand how serious the mistake on the other side is." Yoko sighed, "And I'm glad that I didn't choose that side. Even if you accept and understand the result, I can't look at it with the same feeling. As a mother..."

Then, Yoko talked about a very heavy topic.

"This..." Kazusa couldn't answer.

After all, before being dragged into this, she was still abandoned by her mother and went abroad, and then suddenly brought back a man and said he was "Wasa's new father."

Even though she hadn't met the man yet, she didn't know if she could agree.

This self-centered decision alone was enough to annoy Kazusa.

"She... No, it's more appropriate to use 'I'." Yoko tilted her head and looked at Kazusa, "She decided to go abroad three years ago and let you live alone in the country?"

"Yes……"

"And you ignored everything during this period?"

"Too……"

"And finally remarried?"

"I don't know whether he has been naturalized or not..." Hesha shook her head, and then suddenly looked up, "How do you know? I didn't say anything!"

"Please, even if I can't explain your situation, there is no doubt that you are Kazusa, although your personality is a little... a little dull." Yoko smiled proudly, "But it's easy for me to guess what you are thinking."

"Right……"

Alarm bells began to ring in Kazusa's heart.

She had to start thinking about how to deal with her mother after returning to the real world.

The feeling of having everything seen through is neither good nor bad, but it is definitely embarrassing.

At least the other Touma Yoko would never be so tactful or even stop at the point.

Due to the lack of nearly three years of interaction, a thin but deep gap exists between mother and daughter.

"What an amazing guy... He actually did everything I wanted to do." Yoko looked away, "No, that's me too... It's a complicated feeling."

"Yeah." Kazusa also had mixed feelings.

It was such a magical scene to see the mother's shadow diss her real self.

“But…but even so…” Yoko retracted her gaze and looked at Kazusa with a frown, “Even though I myself think Touma Yoko’s actions were excessive, I have to say—”

"What?" Hesha bit her lower lip slightly.

"Forgive if you can, even if you don't want to..." Yoko lowered his head, "Behind that kind of decision is the hardship that you can't help."

Kazusa looked away, "Even if we should ask for forgiveness, it's not your turn to do so, right?"

From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to associate Yoko in front of her with that somewhat cold mother.

Yoko, who is so gentle and self-deprecatingly says he can't let go of his daughter and is therefore short-sighted, is just an extremely warm existence in her eyes, something she has always been seeking but cannot get.

"But what Touma Yoko did to Touma Kazusa was too much, to the extent that both I and the bystanders would feel resentful. Because it was me, I understand how much it was too much; because it was not me, I can only suggest that you forgive her, and I have no reason to ask you to forgive her. That is a problem between you and her, an unresolved thorn between you."

What Yoko said was absolutely right. Now Kazusa doesn’t know how to face her mother who is about to return home.

He even brought his stepfather back with him.

With all the mess happening, Hesha just wants to escape to a place where even her mother can't find her.

"If we can't remove that thorn, there will definitely be a lot of unhappiness." Yoko said softly, "The Kazusa I saw was escaping from the reality she didn't want to accept. I can understand this. When people find that their world is about to collapse completely in an instant, they will have the idea of ​​escaping in their hearts."

Choosing suicide is also a form of escape, but there is no turning back.

But Kazusa was not that desperate.

But she did want to escape...

"I don't know why I saw Kazusa in such a mess. It's probably because you wanted to escape but didn't know where to go, and finally found that the only place you could escape to was your mother." Yoko scooped up the water and watched it drain away little by little, "Finally you came here."

"What..." Kazusa felt like she understood something.

"Does Kazusa believe that there are monsters in this world?"

"I don't know about monsters, but there are definitely vampires." Kazusa muttered.

"When my mother was little, she once accidentally entered a monster market in the mountains." Yoko said softly, "So I think that Kazusa came from somewhere else and had experiences that I don't know about."

Faced with Yoko's gentle explanation, Hesa ​​felt a little indigestion for a moment.

Not to mention what she went through as a child, the fact that her mother was more aware of her current situation than expected was already another level.

Is this the result of the reversal? The mother here has a decisively different experience, so -

"But to be honest, this is just my wishful thinking. It would be embarrassing if I guessed wrong. After all, it's not because of my daughter, but other reasons." Yoko smiled embarrassedly again, "In short, before you can go back, this is your home, and I am your mother."

"That's right..." Kazusa argued.

"That's right." Yoko laughed. "In short, when you get back there, whether you want to yell at Touma Yoko or just ignore her, I support you. You can't do things without bearing any consequences. If you take it too easy, you'll forget about them. This is one of the lessons I've learned over the years."

"All these years?"

"It's the time you lost... with me."

Yoko gradually spoke from the perspective of "that side", looking at Kazusa and herself on the other side like a bystander.

Then, without thinking, he stood in Touma and Sa's camp and spoke.

It's like watching two characters on TV and having an argument. When both sides are right and wrong, you choose the side you like.

Touma Yoko likes Touma Kazusa more than Touma Yoko.

Such a simple and clear answer.

Presumably, even in that world, this matter would not change at all.

The woman tried so clumsily and hard to love her daughter, but chose the wrong way to express it.

Vaguely, Hesa ​​began to understand what kind of person her mother was.

"……Thanks."

With these words spoken to an unknown Touma Yoko, Kazusa reached the initial reconciliation with something in her heart.

?

Happy New Year everyone!

I was so busy before the holidays that I couldn't update. _(:з」∠)_

Chapter 172 Chapter 1 Locked Space ()

"We're finally here... This upside-down world is really troublesome."

Shijo Ren stood at the gate of Toyosaki Private Academy and sighed softly.

It is now eleven o'clock in the evening. The school and the surrounding houses have all fallen into silence. Only a few houses in the distance still have one or two windows with lights on.

As a person with poor sense of direction, he had already memorized the way to school, but because the world turned upside down, there were slight deviations on the left and right sides of the route.

I finally managed to hide the truth from my true lover at home, but I only arrived two hours later after being lost. This journey was a complete waste.

But then again, Lian appeared here because of the note that was suspected to be left by Woyan Izu Lake, which only told him to go to Fengzhizaki tomorrow.

At first, I also considered the timing and whether I was concerned that there were candidates waiting for the school so I let him go tomorrow.

But when the matter was discussed vaguely at dinner, Zhenfei said something like "There's no one here at night" to complain, but Lian kept it in mind.

This is the world in the mirror, and he and Kazusa are aliens in this world.

Staying here for a long time without being able to integrate will only accelerate the process of "deterioration".

Lian wanted to resolve the situation as soon as possible, so he decided to come and check out the situation in advance.

Judging from Woyan Izu Lake's style, the school might just leave some key props or a message to indicate the next step.

A message note that is concise and to the point, without any date limit or specific content.

Most likely.

So Lian wanted to see if she would miss the chance if she came too early.

Standing at the school gate, he held up the note and checked the contents. After confirming that nothing was missing, he climbed into the school.

There wouldn't be any problem even if there was a security guard in the school.

Just mist it.

This world looks pretty good, and it would be fine if I could live here forever.

But no matter what, solving the mystery of this world... this small garden with no exit is his top priority now.

What on earth could have trapped him, him, Touma and Kazusa here?

But just trapping them and doing nothing, is it waiting for him and Kazusa to be unwilling to integrate into this world, and finally be destroyed together with the world?

It's a very suitable and convenient approach, but it has a fatal flaw.

If he and Kazusa both chose to make the best of it, an option with a very low probability but certain possibility, wouldn't it just be a useless cage?

Or, does anyone want them to stay in the mirror world?

Hope or wish?

Thinking about these things, Lian changed into his indoor shoes in the shoe cabinet.

Walking down the corridor lit by moonlight streaming through the windows.

Now comes the real problem.

The note suspected to have been left by Woyan Izu Lake only had the address of the school on it, nothing else.

It was so rough that Lian could only search like a headless fly.

The Private Toyonosaki Academy is too ordinary, so ordinary that it doesn't even have the so-called seven incredible legends on campus.

Even if it's just a rumor.

Lian opened the door of her classroom.

The classroom was empty, there was nothing in it.

As a matter of course.

If we continue to search for classrooms one by one like this, the results may not change.

Maybe I should look for an unusual place.

Or places that show some abnormal phenomena.

Like the second music room?

In a classroom where a half-blood vampire stayed for a long time, what traces should be left there?

But he was there until school was over yesterday and there were no problems at all.

Leaning against the window in the corridor between the special building and the teaching building, Lian immersed herself in the moonlight, using her whole body and soul to drive her perception ability, trying to find something special in the school.

The result was undoubtedly nothing.

Just when Lian began to doubt the timing, the sound of piano echoed across the campus.

It's a pity that it was played so badly.

The opening part of "Star Variations" was played as badly as a toddler learning to sing, with no rhythm at all.
