Lonely Rock, Liang is my fiancée

Hongxia, who was closest to him, shuddered, not sure if it was because of the exhaled air or what he said, but after glaring at the mischievous Ito Rin, she took Yuna's hand and walked towards the inside of the shrine.

"Four vengeful spirits? What are the other three?" Bai Mu, who had just made a wish to the vengeful spirits to get good grades, looked like a curious baby and asked Ito Rin about the follow-up.

"Taira Masakado, Prince Sawara, and the Emperor."

You don't need a ticket to visit Tenmangu Shrine, but if you want to go to the Plum Garden, you need to pay a 500 yuan entrance fee. It's not in vain, just like Fanxing used the excuse of a beverage store to fool around with the ticket fee during inspection. You can get plum tea and snacks after paying the money.

It’s just that they came at the wrong time. It’s almost winter and the plum blossoms won’t bloom just because of their arrival.

Most of the interior of the shrine is made of wood. After the boys walked in at a relatively slow pace, the girls were standing by the wooden guardrail, looking at the slowly flowing lake.

"Let's take pictures!" Kita Ikuyo kept her own character in mind, pulled her classmates together, turned her back to the clear lake, and took countless photos since arriving in Kyoto.

But when taking the photo, Kita Ikuyo's big eyes were still staring at the two girls next to Senior Hongxia.

She came here not just to see the scenery!

The one chatting with little Pochi shouldn't be the target. In that case, is it this quiet child with long black hair?

According to Ito Rin, she is most likely of the same kind as himself, so based on the principle of mutual attraction, he asked her to help identify it.

What strange things are going on in this person's mind.

She, Kita Ikuyo, was not born!

If she hadn't met Senior Yamada, she would also like handsome guys.

Noticing that the very friendly and outgoing little Kita had already found the target and started communicating, Ito Rin looked at the lake view at her feet with confidence.

There are perhaps a hundred fish in the pond, all swimming in the air with nowhere to rest. Apart from the absence of fish, the scenery here fits this statement.

The tranquil lake was stirred by the late autumn wind. Under the ripples, a pretty face that looked both angry and happy appeared on the rippling water, making Ito Rin stare in a trance for a moment.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Hong Xia, who was standing next to him, patted his arm. She looked down at his panicked look and realized it was her own reflection. Her face immediately turned red.

"They... went to the shrine hall... hurry over here." Hongxia's tone was also infected with panic. As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and trotted towards the center of the hall, leaving Ito Rin standing there stupidly.

When he arrived, he happened to meet the shrine staff who were distributing blessing notes to tourists entering the shrine, which served as tickets for praying in the hall.

Of course, no white hair, and a lucky note worth two hundred yen made Ito Rin want to give up medicine and become a god, and find a job in a shrine after graduation.

However, it is more likely that you will be rejected due to the mismatch between your surname and qualifications. Who can tell for sure?

"Ito, it's Daikichi!" "Me too!"

The boys found simple happiness and prayed sincerely for the good fortune bestowed by the God of Learning. Ito Rin spread out the note in her hand.

lucky.

Sure enough, the things used as tickets are not ordinary. Maybe you can’t find the evil omen among a hundred tickets.

"Little Pochi, don't give up. Besides, your wish is to drop out of high school! Take it easy."

"It's a bad lot... It's actually a bad lot, and I'm the only one with it. I really shouldn't have come out to play."

He was complaining that Tenmangu had no business sense and didn't know how to let in a few more fierce guys. The girls who entered before them started to make a commotion.

Even when they were out on a school trip, little Pochi, still wearing a pink tracksuit, scratched his hair madly and squatted in a corner of the shrine, drawing circles by himself.

Kita Yuyo and Kumiko were trying to persuade them, and curious Ito Rin walked over and picked up the paper sign on the ground.

"I step out of the clouds, but the high branches are too high to climb. I look up to see the bright moon, but it is still among the dark clouds."

It is indeed a rare bad fortune. The general meaning is that you want to climb up but cannot grab the high branches. You live an uneasy life and lack help from others.

It is interesting to say that there will be no detailed explanation on the auspicious fortune, but on the unlucky fortune, every detail will be explained. It should be clear that people who get the auspicious omen will not care about the comments of the shrine, but will take it into their own life.

"It's okay actually." Ito Rin said casually.

Goto, who usually has no inclination to work hard, was actually sad because of a bad fortune. After thinking about it carefully, Ito Rin guessed where the problem was.

"The band's debut is not a sky-high goal. Even if there is no high branch to climb, we can still achieve the goal by taking one step at a time."

"The bright moon covered by dark clouds will eventually shine brightly. Those are just minor difficulties. The meaning of this lot is very clear. When you encounter setbacks, try to correct your behavior. How can such a statement be called bad luck?"

Ito Rin provided psychological counseling to Goto based on her own understanding, and the effect was immediate. The child scratched his hair.

"Ah... is that what you mean?"

"Of course. I'm going to the University of Tokyo. Don't you believe me, Goto? So as long as we can continue to produce excellent original songs, our band's debut journey will be smooth sailing." Ito Rin gave an affirmative answer and even used the name of the University of Tokyo to fool the child.

"So that's how it is, thank you senior!"

Kumiko, who was right beside them, muttered quietly, "Ito-senpai is really good at deceiving people."

"Is it a lie?"

Kousaka Yuna, who was also standing nearby, had already understood the bad fortune as a good fortune according to Ito Rin's logic. When she heard Kumiko's voice, she responded subconsciously.

It was too late by the time she regretted. Kumiko seized the opportunity and enthusiastically taught her about the little tricks used in drawing fortunes at the shrine.

"For activities like fortune-telling, auspicious words are always easy to understand. The trouble lies in the unlucky ones. You have to keep a certain number of unlucky ones, but you can't go into too much detail. Except for the really unlucky ones that can't be resolved, most of them can be explained in other ways."

"But Ito-senpai probably hasn't come across this before. The fortune sticks used by Tenmangu Shrine are from Sensō-ji Temple, and the positive explanation of Goto-san's fortune stick is not like this, so he must have come up with this on the spur of the moment, and he was able to trick Goto-san anyway."

“That’s why I say he’s a great liar.”

Yuna nodded perfunctorily, the paper stick in her hand almost soaked with sweat. When she saw Goto walk out the door to hang up the bad luck sticks, she waved at Kumiko and followed him.

Ijichi Hongxia, who had been watching from the sidelines, witnessed the whole process. She first bowed sincerely to the statue in the middle of the hall, then took small steps to Ito Rin and looked at him with her head tilted.

"Mr. Ito, have you learned how to interpret divination?" Her smile was so sweet that it easily made Ito Rin unable to control herself and nodded.

Hey, why are you nodding?

But he didn't have time to think about this question, because Hongxia stretched out her little hand towards him, with the paper sign that served as a ticket lying quietly on it.

"Please help me take a look."

A withered tree has little hope of spring, a lonely boat encounters a strong wind, and there is no one to go with, so nothing goes well.

Kumiko came over and her eyes went dark when she saw the fortune. She recalled the biggest feature of drawing fortunes at Sensoji Temple, which was that there were a lot of bad fortunes...

Chapter 23: For the sake of my seniors, I will become a witch!

Ito Rin, who had changed her career halfway, had no choice but to surrender and took the lucky sign and hung it on the tree at the door.

According to superstition, this can drive away bad luck.

But fortune telling itself is a kind of superstition...

Ito Rin couldn't understand, if the bad luck brought by drawing lots could be driven away so easily, why were there still so many unlucky people?

After returning to the hall with Pochi and Yuna, he realized how lucky the three boys were. The fortune at Tenmangu Shrine was really merciless.

Having fulfilled his wish of praying for good grades, Baimu was satisfied and planned to return to the B&B.

Over at Xiuhua High School, little Bochi obviously had no interest in outdoor activities, but she was caught by Hongxia and couldn't escape.

"Pochi-chan, don't go back. Come with us for a walk." Hongxia took little Pochi and planned to have a good time in Kyoto.

Climbing is a physical activity, while shopping is entertainment!

Led by the rest of the band, little Pochi, who had barely gotten familiar with the streets around Fanxing, started shaking his head like a rattle when he heard that he was going to visit unfamiliar places in Kyoto.

"No, no, no, no, no..."

Tourists in front of the Tenmangu Shrine gate cast curious glances at her, and Yuna and the others were also surprised by the sudden "wild" behavior of this seemingly quiet girl.

Hongxia smiled awkwardly, and quickly stopped the adaptive shaking of the pink head, and asked Kita to come over and persuade her.

"Ito, aren't you going back?" Bai Mu asked.

"I have to do some shopping later."

He glanced at the girls who were chatting and chatting over there, and revealed an expression of enlightenment. He said in a tone that only a wise man could say: "Be careful not to be discovered by Yamada-san. I heard that she kills people without blinking an eye."

What kind of campus horror story is this...

And don’t think of me as a scumbag who has multiple relationships at the same time!

After impatiently sending away two boys who were preparing to read gossip, Ito Rin walked to the girls' group, which had already been divided into teams.

Goto, who looks silly but is actually very easy to fool and never refuses anyone, was still dragged by Hongxia to go shopping, along with Kumiko and Yuna.

Everyone else from Xiuhua College plans to go back, except Kita Ikuyo.

"I need to go shopping with my senior, sorry Goto-kun."

"fine……"

Little Pochi, who was quite interested in Kyoto music described by Senior Hongxia, was very considerate and didn't say much, but his big eyes were still fixed on the duo who were planning to go out.

It's understandable that Ito-senpai and Nijigasaka-senpai are from the same school, after all, and it goes without saying that he's in the same situation with Ryo-senpai, but why does Kita-san also seem to be having private conversations with his seniors?

Why does it feel like everyone's relationship is progressing rapidly in places that I can't see...

Do you really have to be proactive in order to develop social relationships?

Then I probably won’t be able to develop any relationships in this life.

"What are you looking at, little Pochi? Let's go." Hong Xia gently held her hand with a sunny smile that melted the heart of this cute guy.

She vaguely realized that Ito Rin went out for tomorrow's test activity. Although she didn't know what he planned to do, she still had to work with Kumiko to hold Yuna back.

"Yes, senior."

Just like that afternoon, the girl with wings on her back found her in the park, and little Pochi felt that warmth and glory again.

Senior Hongxia, you are the best!

She was satisfied, and carefully held Hong Xia's hand again. Now she could finally smell the scent of youthful JK.

Ito Rin doesn't know yet that a future pervert has appeared in their band after they finished, and is using his cell phone to look for the address of a store where he can buy the items he urgently needs.

"Ito-senpai, you wouldn't call me out without even finding the place!" Kita Ikuyo picked up a fallen yellow maple leaf from the ground, fanned it gently, and spoke lively.

It seems that the last time I called her out for a "heart-to-heart" communication was effective, and now she is not so disrespectful as to use low-end seduction directly.

"Don't say it in such a way that would cause misunderstanding. Others might think we're looking for a hotel." Ito Rin responded calmly and finally found a suitable place.

Kyoto is really not as good as Tokyo...

No wonder it was abandoned.

"Has your memory deteriorated to this extent, senior? You even forgot who gave up last time." Unconvinced, Xiao Kita walked up to Ito Rin and poked his face with a maple leaf.

Compared to Shimokitazawa High School, Shuka Academy is a very humane school, that is, the rules are not so strict, and there are many activities, encouraging students to pursue their own personality and hobbies.

So Kita, who participated in the school trip, did not wear a school uniform at all. Unlike Pochi, who wore a reverse-enhanced sportswear, she had a good aesthetic sense, and the red long skirt she wore looked quite cute.

"I'm not admitting defeat." As Ito Rin walked in the right direction, she slapped away the maple leaf she hit and answered very seriously, "I just didn't want to harm the children."

Kita Ikuyo, who was originally smiling and playing with Ito Rin, blushed after hearing this comment and glared at him fiercely.

"You are the child, only one year older than me, and yet you are so arrogant!"

Ito Rin doesn't understand why Japanese high school girls are so sensitive about their age being underestimated, especially some of them who even put on strange makeup and pretend to be Shibuya hot girls for the so-called sense of maturity.

But his children do not refer to age.

Ito Rin took a look at the barrenness of Kita's chest openly, sighed, shook her head and walked forward, leaving behind Kita Ikuyo who seemed to have just woken up from a dream, with white smoke coming out of her head due to anger.

Originally, he wanted to stand him up, but thinking of the generous conditions he promised, Xiao Kita gritted his teeth and caught up with Ito Rin, but he was too lazy to talk.

After arriving at the destination, the boredom in her heart finally dissipated, and she looked around the mall selling COS clothing with vitality.

This place is certainly not as good as Shimokitazawa and Akihabara in Tokyo, but their needs are not that strange and can be met if you look carefully.

Walking into a store filled with all kinds of COS costumes, Ito Rin has seen a lot of familiar things.

The school uniform of the cannon sister, the wedding dress of the second lady, the witch hat of the scumbag witch...

Wait, can this kind of thing be put up for sale?

Ito Rin stared at the clothes that looked very similar to Sora's clothes and fell into deep thought.

"Senior, how about this one!" Kita Ikuyo, who knew the purchasing requirements clearly, got what she wanted without even waiting for his opinion.

"No." Looking at Irena's iconic witch costume, Ito Rin refused it outright.

He wanted a witch who played with tarot cards, not a guy who liked to travel.

"Isn't this a witch too?"
