"Don't you two know me?"
"Uh…should we get to know you?"
"..."
Jiang Chuan was suddenly speechless.
At the beginning, Kudo Shizuka came to him and said that because of his relief to the townspeople, many people in their shrine were dissatisfied and the whole shrine was in chaos. But now that she visited in person, these two people didn't even recognize her.
That woman, Kudo Shizuka, is really talking nonsense.
Come to think of it, places like small towns are mostly populated by honest and decent people. Even the girls in the shrine have to sell important things in order to survive, but most of them can only take care of their own affairs. How could they have such strange resentment just because someone in the town is helping the poor?
Jiang Chuan's relief to the townspeople did affect the interests of some people, but most of them did not include these ordinary shrine maidens, only the leader Kudo Shizuka.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but frown.
It seems that all the kickbacks from cooperating with the mayor and helping him to raise food supplies, did they all go into the pocket of Shizuka Kudo alone?
You really didn’t share anything with your sisters?
Thinking of what Shizuka Kudo said that day and her bitter face, Jiang Chuan suddenly felt nauseous.
It seems that his father, Dr. Kudo, was right, and there was indeed something evil hidden in the shrine.
But the only one who is evil is Kudo Shizuka.
Taking out a small bag of food from his pocket, he placed it in the hands of the two young witches under their shocked gazes. Jiang Chuan then showed a gentle smile on his face and asked again.
"I'm a good friend of your sister Shizuka. Could you please take me to see her? It's just a small gift. Please accept it."
--------
In the stuffy Japanese-style room, there was a strange smell in the air.
The mattress on the tatami was also in a mess at this time.
After a burst of indescribable noise, the room returned to silence.
The woman on the bed calmed her breathing, then stood up, picked up the scattered kimono from the ground beside her, and put it on.
"What has he been doing lately?"
Kudo Shizuka asked slowly.
"Uh... nothing much, just asked me to arrange for the brothers to continue patrolling outside the town. Sister Shizuka, why are you so interested in Brother Jiang Chuan?"
Akiyama Shinsuke, who had just exerted himself, propped himself up tiredly and asked, looking at Kudo Shizuka's back.
"No particular reason."
Kudo Shizuka replied impatiently, then turned to look at Akiyama Shinsuke and said seriously: "I remind you again that you must not let anyone else know that I asked you about him."
Hearing this, Akiyama Shinsuke's expression also looked a little unhappy.
"I don't understand. Brother Jiang Chuan is a very good person. Is there anything to hide?"
At this point, Akiyama Shinsuke seemed to suddenly think of something, and his expression suddenly became a little sour.
"Could it be that... Sister Shizuka, are you interested in Brother Jiang Chuan? I advise you to give up. Brother Jiang Chuan is the husband of Sister Haruyuki. Sister Shizuka, you are no match for him!"
Hearing this, Kudo Shizuka's face suddenly turned dark.
"What are you doing? If you keep talking nonsense, get out of here!"
"..."
Seeing Kudo Shizuka getting angry, Akiyama Shinsuke dared not say a word and just shut up and nodded obediently.
Then the room returned to silence.
Just as the two of them had put on their clothes and Akiyama Shinsuke was about to leave the room, a young woman's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Sister Shizuka? There's a Mr. Jiang Chuan who says he's your friend and wants to meet you."
"Jiang Chuan?!!"
Hearing the name, Kudo Shizuka was startled and couldn't control her voice for a moment, so she quickly covered her mouth.
And Akiyama Shinsuke in the room was also shocked.
"Sister Jingxiang, why did Brother Jiang Chuan come to see you? Could it be that the two of you are really..."
"shut up!"
Kudo Shizuka glared at him fiercely, then straightened her clothes and said softly, "I know, I'll go right away."
Chapter 177: Encountering Kudo Shizuka and Conquering the Shrine
Jiang Chuan was brought to the courtyard behind the shrine by the witch on duty and sat down at a stone table.
"Mr. Jiang Chuan, please wait a moment, Sister Shizuka will be here soon."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
She gave the young witch a gentle smile in response, and the latter blushed immediately, waved her hand quickly, and then left quickly.
As he watched her leaving, the smile on Jiang Chuan's face gradually disappeared.
As mentioned before, Jiang Chuan's perception ability in all aspects is slightly stronger than that of ordinary people.
Of course, he heard clearly the exclamation from Kudo Shizuka just now.
It is even harder to ignore when the person being exclaimed is their own name.
The direction is also very clear. It is more like there is only one house in that direction, so it is difficult to find it.
He is not a man who likes to wait passively.
So he stood up and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
……
When Jiang Chuan came outside the house and was about to push the door open, he didn't expect a figure to come out from inside the door first and meet him face to face on the spot.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds.
"Why are you here?!"
Jiang Chuan said in surprise.
However, the next moment, another person walked out of the room. Kudo Shizuka walked out of the room wearing a kimono. The two people outside the door stared at each other, and suddenly the two people stared at each other.
Jiang Chuan felt like his brain was a little out of order, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether the scene in front of him was good or bad.
He was not a dull and naive boy. When Akiyama's grandmother said "being young is good", he understood that this boy was probably going to fall in love.
But the target is Shizuka Kudo?
You kid, you really can get off D. Do you dare to drive a car that you can get on by just punching a clock?
Seeing Jiang Chuan's disappointed expression, Akiyama Shinsuke couldn't help but reveal a hint of embarrassment on his face, so he took the lead in breaking the awkward silence.
"Brother Jiang Chuan, why are you here?"
Akiyama Shinsuke was not very surprised by Jiang Chuan's appearance, after all, he had just learned about Jiang Chuan's arrival. Naturally, he also knew that he was here to find Kudo Shizuka.
However, he still asked this at this time, looking at Jiang Chuan's expression with some nervousness.
"Shinsuke, you should go back first."
Kudo Shizuka behind him suddenly spoke.
"..."
This time, Akiyama Shinsuke did not obey Kudo Shizuka's order, and there was a hint of stubbornness in his expression.
Jiang Chuan looked at the two of them and immediately understood something.
It seems that Akiyama Shinsuke is really sincere.
Jiang Chuan felt a little sorry for him, but in order to make him feel better, he still said, "Qiu Shanjun, buddy, are you worried about my character? Go back first, I'll come to your house to find you later and bring you some wine."
"Brother Jiang Chuan..."
After hearing Jiang Chuan's words, Akiyama Shinsuke's expression looked much better. He nodded, turned around to look at Kudo Shizuka again, and then walked out of the shrine.
After he left, a charming smile suddenly appeared on Kudo Shizuka's face, and her voice became so loud that it could crush a cow to death.
"Mr. Jiang Chuan, you said you were coming to see me, why didn't you tell me in advance? It makes me so embarrassed."
As she spoke, she leaned to the side and opened the door a little more, then a hint of teasing appeared on her face.
"Since you're here, why don't we go into the room and talk?"
As the door opened, Jiang Chuan suddenly felt a familiar and somewhat disgusting smell coming towards him. He glanced at the somewhat messy mattress in the room, and his face suddenly darkened.
"No thanks."
Jiang Chuan has no interest in people like Kudo Shizuka, and he has even less interest in the battlefield where others have just fought.
Hearing Jiang Chuan's refusal, Kudo Shizuka was not disappointed and still looked at Jiang Chuan with a smile.
"Okay, then what does Mr. Jiang Chuan want to talk to me about?"
"I'll just get to the point."
Jiang Chuan didn't want to waste time, nor did he want to stay in this place for too long, so he went straight to the point.
"I think the summer festival you organized is pretty good. If you don't have enough food, you can come to me and I'll fill it up for you."
Hearing this, Kudo Shizuka showed a hint of surprise on her face: "Really? Mr. Jiang Chuan..."
"The festival is great. I like the hustle and bustle. It's nice to have some good food and go shopping together."
Jiang Chuan interrupted Kudo Shizuka before she could finish her words.
"But whatever plans you have, I suggest you don't do them."
Jiang Chuan's expression gradually turned cold.
Hearing this, the smile on Kudo Shizuka's face gradually disappeared.
Then he raised the corners of his mouth and laughed softly: "What do you mean by that? What plans can I have..."
"That's hard to say. Since you are the one who is organizing the festival and taking care of the food, it shouldn't be that hard to do something. When the night comes and everyone is happily shopping at the festival, you can use force to do things that you wouldn't dare to do normally. It should be a very profitable business. I also heard that you, Miss Kudo, have a lot of friends in town."
Jiang Chuan spoke with a smile, his speech was steady and his words were clear. When he finished speaking, the smile on Kudo Shizuka's face had completely disappeared.
A hint of anger gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Mr. Jiang Chuan, I don't know what you mean by saying these words. Holding the summer festival is our common idea, not my personal decision. As for the unfounded words you said later, I will just assume that you are drunk."
"Don't rush to deny it. I'm just speculating. I really don't know what your specific plan is."
Jiang Chuan smiled and continued, "But let me warn you, the last person who wanted to do something in this town has had his grave weeds sprouting for a while."
"..."
After hearing what Jiang Chuan said, Kudo Shizuka's expression control finally failed completely.
An expression of disbelief gradually appeared on her face.
"What do you mean?"
They were clearly talking about the summer festival, so why did this man suddenly change the subject to Miyagi Yuichi?
That guy Gongcheng was indeed dangerous at the beginning, but in the end, nothing happened. As for why all of them suddenly died in the grocery store, no one knew...
Thinking of this, Kudo Shizuka suddenly realized something and her pupils suddenly shrank.
She looked up at Jiang Chuan, her voice trembling a little.
"Are you trying to say...that thing has something to do with you?!"
Jiang Chuan smiled and did not answer the question.
"To tell you the truth, my goal is the same as yours. I also want to take control of this town."
"Look, this town is so small that one person is enough to manage it. If there are too many people, there will always be chaos of one kind or another, and it is inevitable that something will happen again, right?"
As Jiang Chuan spoke, he stretched out his hand, grabbed the windowsill beside him, and exerted force with his palm.
With a loud bang, dense cracks suddenly appeared on the cement window sill.
"!!!"
