Is it okay not to want to work hard?

Higashino Kanade returned home, took a shower and looked at his phone, only to find someone was sending him messages frantically.

This person was none other than Hiroi Kikuri, who was staying alone in the studio on Christmas. She had bothered Hongxia and Xingge yesterday on Christmas Eve, so she couldn't bother them again today.

【what? 】

Dongye Zou was puzzled and looked at the time. It was 11 o'clock in the evening. What was this woman doing at this time?

【Will you come back in the evening? 】

Hiroi Kikuri made a cute expression.

【I'm at home】

Higashino Kanade went to bed and crawled into the cold quilt that no one was warming.

【Isn’t the studio your home?】

Hiroi Kikuri asked.

[No, it’s a studio]

Dongye played the answer immediately.

【Unfaithful Man】

[Don't slander me. How can I be unfaithful?]

[I'm so bored in the studio alone]

【Playing games】

[Don’t want to fight]

【sleep】

【Don’t want to sleep】

On the phone, Higashino Kanade and Hiroi Kikuri were chatting intermittently.

They are dating, but they haven't dated before. It's a strange thing for an adult to date a junior high school student, whether the man is older than the woman or the woman is older than the man.

If you show affection on a date, people will definitely look at you strangely. Maybe someone will even pull out their phone from their pocket and call the police without hesitation.

By then, their date would be to take a statement at the police station.

Although this experience is very unique, I think I'd better give up after thinking about it.

No matter what, he still has to find time and opportunity to date Kikuri. This year, it's probably impossible, because New Year's Day is just a few days away, so he'll wait until the new year and date Kikuri then. He hopes that dating Kikuri will be a wonderful experience, and it won't end up as drinking in a pub, and he takes a taxi to drag a drunk Kikuri home.

At twelve o'clock, Higashino Kanade went to bed. Although Kikuri was still chatting with him, he said he was going to sleep. Tomorrow I have to go shopping with Konata and Korin. We are going to go fishing and camping. We need to buy fishing equipment, camping equipment, and barbecue equipment. We will have a great time camping, barbecue, and fishing.

With Uncle Sojiro driving, I don't have to worry about not being able to carry my stuff.

At that time, Konata, Korin, and Naoko will go to the fishing place with their uncle first, he and Yuzuru will go to pick up Ichiri, while Hongxia, Kikuri, and Xingge will take a taxi directly.

It would definitely cost a lot to take a taxi, but they only have Uncle Sojiro who has a car, so they really have no choice but to take a taxi.

Higashino Kanade has the money to buy a car, but the problem is that he is not yet 18 years old and cannot get a driver's license. Xingge, who is over 18 years old, has a driver's license but no car, and Kikuri has neither a driver's license nor a car.

Let Juli take a driver's license test and buy a car. Sometimes it's troublesome to go out without a car. Speaking of which, Juli will need to drive a vehicle for band activities in the future, so it's time to buy one. Should I buy a Wuling Hongguang, AE86, or Porsche 365a?

If you think about it, these cars are pretty good.

Although he doesn't have a driver's license, Higashino Kanade wants to buy a car.

I'll ask Ju Li when the time comes, and then look at the money in the bank card. Now his family is less and less concerned about his spending, because they see that he is relatively restrained in spending money, not the kind of person who spends lavishly. He doesn't squander money, nor does he speculate in stocks, let alone start a business, so his family gradually feels at ease with his spending.

I am not afraid of squandering money, but I am afraid of starting a business. The money spent on starting a business is much more than the money spent on squandering money.

As for the car, it is better to buy a bigger one. After all, he has few friends and many wives. A small car cannot accommodate the whole family when they go out for a trip. It is not too late to buy a small car when everyone is an adult and has a driver's license.

Thinking about these things, Higashino Kanade fell asleep unknowingly.

After a busy day of shopping, fishing day arrived quickly.

"set off!"

As soon as they arrived at the Nishimiya family and picked up Yuzuru Nishimiya, and after saying goodbye to Uncle Sojiro and Konata, Glass, and Lee, Tono Kanade excitedly pulled Yuzuru Nishimiya towards the tram station.

Go pick up a mile and go fishing!

Chapter 41 Metaphysics

On the train to Yokohama, Yuzuru Nishimiya was sitting, while Kanade Higashino, who had no seat, was standing.

"Why should I go with you to pick up your girlfriend?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya was not in a good mood looking at the crowded train.

She wanted to go for a ride in the car with her sister, rather than experience being squeezed like a sardine can on the tram.

"How can you talk like that? This is your sister-in-law."

Higashino Kanade touched Nishimiya Yuzuru's head. Now she is still sister-in-law, but it is hard to say what she will be in the future. It is possible that she will still be sister-in-law, or it is possible that she will be sister.

"sister in law……"

Nishimiya Yuzuru felt something was wrong. She and Higashino Kanade were not siblings, so why did she call another woman "sister-in-law"? She shouldn't even call Nozomi "sister-in-law", but "sister".

"Don't worry about the details, or you'll end up like Xiaoling."

When Tono Kanade saw Nishimiya Yuzuru thinking, he immediately interrupted her and told her not to think.

"Xiao Ling will be sad if you say that."

When Yuzuru Nishimiya heard Tono Kanade say this about his sister, he laughed.

"Do you believe what you said?"

Higashino Kanade didn't think that his silly sister would be sad if he said this. On the contrary, not only would she not be sad, she would also yell that she was angry and asked him to buy her food, otherwise she would bite him.

"Do not believe."

Nishimiya Yuzuru shook her head. Xiaoling really didn't seem like someone who would get sad. She had known Xiaoling for so long, but she had only seen her get sad a few times. The most memorable time for Xiaoling to cry was when she fell down while holding a KFC bucket, spilling the food all over the floor and crying.

"That's right. Don't tell me that Xiaoling won't be sad if I say this to her. She won't be sad even if I say it to her face. That guy is heartless, just like Erha."

Although it is not nice to say this to your own sister, as a brother who knows clearly what kind of creature his sister is, it is normal to say such things.

Little sisters are rarely cute, and most of the time they are not cute. Of course, not all little sisters are like this, there are still little sisters who are very well-behaved and cute from childhood to adulthood, but he has never seen many such sisters in the two-dimensional world. In his impression, the sisters in the two-dimensional world are all... Chen, cough, Kousaka Kirino?

“I don’t know where they are.”

Higashino Kanade took out his cell phone and sent messages to Izumi Konata and Ichichi Kouka, asking them where both groups were.

The fishing spot is outside of Tokyo, and it is a popular place during holidays where you can fish and camp.

Go in the morning and return at night. It is definitely impossible to camp there all night. It is just to experience the feeling of camping. After all, it is quite uncomfortable to stay overnight without washing. Chi Fang may be able to bear it. After all, she can take a shower the next day even if she turns into a Want Want snow cake. It is hard to say for others. As for Xiaozi, she will get up and take a shower unless she is too tired.

On the train, Yuzuru Nishimiya was very bored.

Higashino Kanade can play with his mobile phone, but she doesn't. The tram is full of people, and she has no desire to take pictures. Moreover, she has to ask for consent before taking pictures of strangers, and she can't take pictures whenever she wants.

"I am bored."

Nishimiya Yuzuru leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

With Brother Zou around, she didn't have to worry about her safety on the train.

"Ok?"

Just fell asleep like this.

Higashino Kanade saw Nishimiya Yuzuru close his eyes and shook his head. Really, he couldn't play with his phone now, he had to keep an eye on Yuzuru. Although most men on the train didn't dare to make any big movements, fearing that they would be considered as indecent, there were also perverts who really wanted to molest people.

However, please be careful yourself.

Girls are afraid of perverts, and boys are afraid of perverts too. For girls, groping is a shadow, and for boys, groping is even more of a shadow.

In the LINE group, Izumi Konata and Ichichi Nijika were very active, and the two of them kept chatting about going fishing. It wasn't just Higashino Kanade who was interested in fishing, they were also very interested. Normally, they didn't have the chance, but now that they had the chance, of course they wanted to catch a big fish.

You don’t have to eat it, but you must take photos.

Higashino Kanade didn't show up in the group, but secretly peeked at the chat history between Jifang and Hongxia. The two talked about him all the time, first saying that he fished more than him, then doubting that he couldn't catch any fish, then complaining whether he would go into the water to catch fish, and then saying that maybe he just said he wanted to fish, and when he got to the place, he would just play with his phone or draw.

These two girls.

Higashino Kanade resisted the urge to complain and secretly made up his mind.

At that time, he must catch fish. Not only fish, but big fish, lots and lots of big fish.

With his superpowers, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to catch fish. If he can't catch any fish, he will never tolerate them. He will let them bite even if they are hooked straight. He will directly summon the fish.

As the train was about to arrive at the station, Tono Kanade received a message from Goto Ichiri.

[I'm at the station]

Outside the station, Goto Ichiri was waiting for Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Yuzuru who were about to arrive. She didn't really want Kanade to pick her up at home because her parents and sister were at home and she would feel embarrassed if Kanade came to pick her up.

Although she was already embarrassed to tell her family that she was going out on a date today, it was still better than having Xiaozou pick her up.

They have been dating for quite some time, but she is still not used to being someone else's girlfriend.

She didn't feel it when she was alone before, but now that they are together, she feels that love is very troublesome. The reason is that sometimes she doesn't want to go out, but she doesn't know how to refuse Xiaozou, so she can only agree to go on a date with a bitter heart.

Although every date felt good, I felt so tired when I got home.

I don’t know what’s so good about dating. Isn’t it just going out to have fun? I feel like it’s not as good as practicing guitar at home.

The reason why Goto Ichiri thinks this way now is that she has been going out more often since she started dating Higashino Kanade. If she were to stay at home alone as often as before, she would be very eager for someone to ask her out to play.

All I can say is that some things are not cherished after you get them. If Higashino Kanade didn't visit Goto Ichiri for a long time, Goto Ichiri would probably become very depressed.

After meeting Goto Ichiri, Higashino Kanade and Nishimiya Yuzuru did not take a taxi to the campsite immediately. Instead, they bought some strange things and then took a taxi.

Higashino Kanade didn't see Izumi Kanata this morning, so he bought some materials and prepared to contact Aunt Kanata again to ask her where she was. It would be awkward if they arrived at the place and Aunt Kanata went home.

This time he wanted to try a new psychic technique that was taught to him by the customer service at the service hotline. It said that one could use a mobile phone to contact the deceased. Although there was a certain risk that one might occasionally receive a call from a ghost in the middle of the night, as long as one had the contact information, one could contact the deceased without having to draw a magic circle.

Higashino Kanade recalled the spellcasting methods in his memory. He always felt that he would never return on the path of metaphysics. If he stopped painting in the future, maybe he could set up a fortune-telling stall under the overpass.

Chapter 42 By the Lake

Sadness has gone on the road of pretending to be a ghost and there is no return.

Higashino Kanade had a strange expression on his face as he looked at the apps on his phone that did not exist in reality and belonged to the underworld.

When we arrived at the camping site, Uncle Sojiro was setting up the tent and everyone else was unloading things from the car and putting them away. He was the only one in the distance, setting out all kinds of weird things.

After doing this, his phone started downloading apps automatically and frantically, as if it had entered a website it shouldn't have. It would have been fine if all of them had covers that looked terrible, but these apps not only had terrible covers, but each one was more horrible than the last.

He clicked on an app called Shrine and found that all the things sold there were strange, including but not limited to prayer beads, amulets, pendants, strange-looking dolls, a white shirt soaked in blood, and a poster with an evil spirit hidden inside.

"Why are we using Japanese yen? Why not ghost money?"

Higashino Kanade didn't expect that this app charges in Japanese yen instead of ghost money.

Although he complained, he did not forget the main business. He opened the app called "Wanshitong" by the customer service, found the column for contacting the ghost, and filled in various information such as name, gender, age at death and address before death.

"Forget it, let uncle fill it out." Dongye Kanade frowned when he saw some information that needed to be filled out but he didn't know, "No, I'd better give the phone to uncle and let him contact me."

Higashino Kanade immediately ran to find Izumi Sojiro, and when he saw him setting up the tent, he said, "Uncle, fill this out, and then follow the instructions above to contact Aunt Kanata. I'll set up the tent."

"what?"

Izumi Sojiro was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and took the phone handed to him by Higashino Kanade. When he saw the birthday, death anniversary, cause of death, etc. that needed to be filled in on the phone, he was stunned again.

In an instant, I don’t know what he was thinking about, but Izumi Sojiro suddenly burst into tears.

"what……"

Higashino Kanade was surprised to see Izumi Sojiro crying. Although he roughly knew why Uncle Sojiro was crying, it was the first time he had seen Uncle Sojiro cry since he was a child.

"I did not see anything."

Higashino Kanade immediately lowered his head, squatted down and started to set up the tent.

Before coming camping, he specifically learned how to set up a tent. Although it was his first time and his technique was not very good, he managed to set up the tent.
