4. Yanagi had already mentally prepared for Tokyo's size, but the reality was that Tokyo was even bigger than he'd imagined. Without the aid of transportation, if he were a bit quicker, he might be able to complete the planned route in a hurry. But if he couldn't, it didn't matter; there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
3 Wearing a brimmed hat, Liu Hao held the straps of his backpack with both hands and walked quickly on the streets of Tokyo like an ordinary tourist.
㈤In the small alleys of the North District, Liu Hao indeed felt the quiet and scattered atmosphere like those in Japanese comics and Japanese dramas. The streets were not spotless, and the styles of the various single-family houses and apartments were not uniform and harmonious, but there was an inexplicable sense of mottled exquisiteness.
This feeling was weakened when Lu reached the main road.
The relatively wide roads, busy streets and high-rise buildings are no different in essence from any prosperous steel forest in the world. Only the Japanese promotional videos played on the buildings can show the difference.
However, after Liu Hao walked into the more crowded commercial area, he began to feel that atmosphere. There were all kinds of exaggerated store signs, underground idols or maid cafe employees soliciting customers on the roadside, and a strong two-dimensional atmosphere on various billboards and billboards. The young lady in a Japanese maid outfit on the street was so big and deep... ahem, no, it's so cute.
The high-rise commercial buildings don’t really have any special features, but the atmosphere is definitely right.
Liu Hao also walked slowly, and occasionally followed the crowd to visit shops on the street like an ordinary tourist. Some of the shops sold cute accessories such as Hayao Miyazaki and Pokémon. In the bookstore next to it, you can see blushing magazine covers and a whole wall of discs that show the strong teaching staff of Japan.
It's like seeing an adult products store next to a hot pot restaurant. The styles are so different yet inexplicably unified. This is definitely Tokyo.
Because it was the weekend, there were a lot of people in Ikebukuro. Liu Hao began to consciously walk to places with fewer people, looking around as he walked.
Sunshine City? Sunshine City?
The three characters "shui aquarium" are completely Chinese.
"Mantian" is also Chinese. What does it mean? The first stroke of the character "天" (sky) is made up of three planets. Is it a planetarium?
At the same time, he also noticed some strange points. Is there something wrong with the population ratio in this world? Why do there seem to be so many more women than men?
It was because of this idea that Liu Hao began to observe passers-by intentionally, and then he made an unexpected discovery. It seemed that a girl had been following him since he passed by the aquarium.
At first, Liu Hao thought it was an illusion, because he saw through the camera of his mobile phone that although the girl lowered her head, she did not show any timidity of following someone. It was not until he deliberately walked to a place with very few people and the girl still followed him straight, that Liu Hao was sure that he was indeed being followed.
Being inexplicably followed in a foreign country should have been a warning sign, but from a distance, the woman didn't look like a bad person. Instead, she seemed harmless. This intrigued Liu Hao. He stood out among the crowd, so why was he targeted? His only unique feature was that he was from another world. Could this be related to the Gravity Connection plan?
So Liu Hao deliberately turned into a small alley, and then stood at the corner waiting to meet the girl.
Unexpectedly, the girl not only did not stop when she turned the corner, but also bumped into Liu Hao, and the two of them bumped into each other.
"Ok?"
"Well……"
Before Liu Hao could open his mouth to ask, he saw the girl squat down on her own initiative and gently touch the Band-Aid with the Adelie penguin printed on Liu Hao's knee. Liu Hao could see a slightly happy expression on the short-haired girl's face through her fluffy bangs.
Just when Liu Hao was confused, the short-haired girl raised her head, and her beautiful amber eyes like gems looked at Liu Hao with a look like a frightened little animal.
“Uh…ah…hmm…”
The girl puffed up her cheeks and waved her right hand in the air twice, as if making some gesture. Her eyes were also wandering around, as if she wanted to express something but couldn't.
Liu Hao was even more confused. Could he be deaf and mute?
Volume 35: Chapter Chapter Interesting Man, Interesting Woman
Whether you are deaf or mute, you should always find a way to communicate first.
However, the actual combat scenario is indeed very different from the theoretical knowledge. Perhaps infected by the panic of the short-haired girl in front of him, Liu Hao also became nervous when he wanted to speak, and some of the short sentences he had prepared became fragmented under the nervousness.
How do you say "hello" in Japanese? Private Marseille? No, no, that's definitely not "hello."
Or maybe I should just use English. How are you? Fine, thank you, and you? No, no, this is some kind of elementary school test-taking language. It's strange. Yesterday, when I was tutoring, my spoken English was quite fluent, and I had the employer and the student stunned. But why is it that when I think about speaking in real life, all I can think of is this kind of nonsense?
The result was that all the language in his head turned into "hmm" and "ahh", and Liu Hao also started making gestures to the girl with short hair.
The girl with short hair was obviously stunned for a moment, staring at Liu Hao with her big eyes. The girl was wearing a gray hoodie, and her pretty gray short hair was draped on both sides, just reaching her slender neck. Her black eyelashes were long and thick, especially her pair of beautiful gem-like eyes, which revealed a hint of confused water color. This made this girl who was as cute as a small animal have a charm that was inconsistent with her age. It would be fine if you didn't pay attention to her, but if you did, it would be difficult to take your eyes off her.
Gao Songdeng never paid attention to the direction of the crowd. To her, she was just like the Liu penguin she had just seen in the aquarium. Because she was trapped in her body, everything about the other people had nothing to do with her. But when she just came out of the aquarium, she saw the Band-Aid on Liu Hao's knee in the crowd. It was from the penguin series launched with the animal theme last year, and it was her favorite Adelie penguin, so she once had a collection of it.
However, she gave this favorite Band-Aid to her friend who understood her best.
Gao Songdeng didn't have any other thoughts, he just saw it, so he followed it, it was that simple.
It wasn't until the girl bumped into Liu Hao and squatted down to confirm that it was really a Band-Aid from that series that she suddenly had no other thoughts and realized that her behavior seemed to be misunderstood again.
So after making eye contact with Liu Hao, the frightened Gao Songdeng originally wanted to run away, but the girl smelled a faint lavender scent on Liu Hao, which was almost the same as the scent of her other friend. She wanted to say it out, but she was so nervous that she didn't know how to express it. She just babbled and made gestures, hoping that the other party could understand.
Unexpectedly, Liu Hao, due to the language barrier of being from a foreign place and being infected by her nervousness, also started to make gestures with "hmm" and "ah".
[Could it be that he and I are the same existence? ]
The familiar feeling made Gao Songdeng less panicked. She pointed at the Band-Aid on Liu Hao's foot, covered her chest with one hand, and drew a wave pattern up and down with the other hand.
——(Do you like penguins too?)
[Are you asking me where I bought the Band-Aid?]
Liu Hao felt that there should be no problem with his understanding. He waved his hand, pressed the index finger of one hand with the other hand, and made a circle.
——(I didn’t buy it, a friend put it on for me.)
[You don't like this pattern, but rather the jumping penguins? You're like me, after all.]
Takamatsu Deng showed his white palm, drew circles on the palm of his other hand, and then pointed in the direction of Ikebukuro. His little face was full of serious expression, and his big eyes blinked at Liu Hao.
——(The penguins that can swim in circles are in the aquarium in Ikebukuro.)
[Are there any stores in Ikebukuro where I can buy this? How would I know…]
Liu Hao pointed at himself, drew a dotted circle with his finger below, and then pointed outside, indicating that he was outside the circle.
——(I am not Japanese, so I am not sure.)
Going to Antarctica to see penguins? That's amazing.
…………
The two people with normal language functions were communicating with each other through gestures and humming and ahaha. This strange scene attracted the attention of a girl with short silver hair.
She squatted not far away, supporting her cute baby face with one hand and looking at the two of them. Her beautiful heterochromatic eyes blinked and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Interesting man~! Interesting woman!"
Gao Songdeng suddenly thought of something. Since he was the same person as herself, he would definitely understand other things. She took out a handful of pebbles from her pocket, held them in both hands, lowered her head and placed them solemnly in front of Liu Hao.
Liu Hao was also infected by her seriousness, wondering if she wanted to exchange her most precious thing for this Band-Aid? Could it be like some kind of out-of-print stamp? Xiangzi, you are confused. If you sell it, won’t you be free to swim freely in the vast sea and fly freely in the sky?
In order to live up to the girl's trust, Liu Hao patted his hands on his body, and solemnly picked up a stone in her hand, looked at it closely, looked at it against the sun, turned it in circles, and then finally came to the conclusion - this seemed to be just an ordinary stone.
However, out of politeness, Liu Hao still tasted each stone in Gao Songdeng's hand, and finally selected the one he thought was the most beautiful and placed it in the girl's right palm.
Gao Songdeng's eyes lit up. She held up the stone that Liu Hao had picked out and handed it to him. This time, Liu Hao inexplicably understood that she didn't want to exchange the Band-Aid, but wanted to give the stone to herself.
The girl's pleading eyes were simply hard to refuse, so Liu Hao had to think about it, put down his schoolbag and took out a bag of QQ candy from it. If he couldn't refuse, then he would exchange it for an equal value.
But just after handing it over, Liu Hao realized something was wrong. Giving exotic packaged food of unknown origin to a cute girl he met for the first time, isn't this the behavior of a weird uncle?
After thinking about this, Liu Hao was about to put the candy away again, then a figure flashed by and took the candy bag from Liu Hao's hand in the blink of an eye.
"I want to eat."
Without waiting for the stunned two to respond, the girl with heterochromic eyes tore open the package, poured several pieces of candy into her mouth, and showed a cute and happy smile to Liu Hao, "Sweet and delicious."
Surprised, Liu Hao couldn't help but speak in his hometown dialect: "Who are you? Why are you eating something of unknown origin?"
Gao Songdeng was also surprised. He covered his mouth and said to Liu Hao, "Can you speak?"
Liu Hao was even more surprised: "You can speak too? You can understand what I say?"
The conversation between the two made the heterochromic-eyed girl smile even brighter: "Interesting man~! Interesting woman!"
Volume 36: Chapter Tokyo Penguins and Tokyo Wildcats
Based on the experience of Toyokawa Shoko and Nagasaki Suyo, Liu Hao naturally thought that he was the same. He could only understand the locals' Japanese when he was with them, and whether they were there or not, the locals should not be able to understand Liu Hao's Chinese. Now it seems that this is not the case?
After a wonderful encounter, the three of them sat on a bench by the roadside. Liu Hao looked at the girl next to him who was happily eating the snacks in his schoolbag. This very familiar girl called herself Yao Lenai, a name that was a bit difficult to pronounce. She had fluffy short silver hair and soft baby cheeks, especially her heterochromatic eyes, one blue on the left and one yellow on the right, which made this petite and innocent girl look as smart and cute as a cat.
Liu Hao couldn't help but complain, "Didn't your parents tell you not to eat food given by strangers?"
Liu Hao couldn't bear to see such a lovely girl meet with any misfortune, especially since this was Japan. If it were in China, basically, one would just have to be wary of human traffickers, but in Japan, there were many more things to consider, such as the Wolf of the Train, the Copper Master, and the Demonic Pervert...
"Said."
Lenai stuck out his tongue to lick the crumbs at the corner of his mouth, and also sucked the tomato jam crumbs left on the potato chips on his fingers into his mouth. He was just like a greedy cat.
Liu Hao said angrily, "You didn't listen even after I told you. If I were a bad guy, you might be in danger now."
"Funny man, it's okay."
Lenai raised her pretty face and set her eyes on the chocolate bar in Liu Hao's schoolbag. She pointed at the packaging, and after getting Liu Hao's reluctant nod of agreement, she happily opened the packaging and started eating.
"I've lost to you. If you keep going like this, you'll have to pay the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's KPI..."
After hearing Liu Hao's description, Le Nai looked up and winked at him. She tugged at his sleeve with one hand, pointed in a direction and said, "That place sells matcha parfaits. They're delicious."
"Buffy, what is that?"
"It's sweet, cool, and creamy and delicious."
"ice cream?"
"Yeah, I want to eat."
"Then go buy it yourself."
"I have no money."
Liu Hao was unmoved by the cute girl's suggestion. He shrugged and said, "I don't have any money either."
"stare--"
Kaname Lenai stared closely at Liu Hao's chest. In the lining pocket there was the ten thousand yen bill that Toyokawa Shoko had lent to Liu Hao in the morning.
"You can see this too?"
"I smell it."
Kaname Lena curled the corners of her mouth, with a hint of pride on her cute face.
"Even if you smell it, it's not okay. This money can't be used. If you want to eat it, ask your parents for money to buy it."
"Oh……"
There was no sign of frustration on Lenai's face. Although she was a very outgoing girl, she did not force or act coquettishly. Instead, she pointed at the cookies in Liu Hao's schoolbag and said, "I want some."
"This is acceptable."
After Liu Hao agreed, he realized something was wrong. Oh no, he had learned the essential lesson from this Japanese girl. Chinese people always compromise. If you ask him for snacks directly, he may not agree, but if you ask him to treat you to high-end ice cream, he will take a step back and allow you to have snacks.
Shaking his head with a somewhat awkward smile, Liu Hao didn't feel bad about the food, he just found it a little strange. He seemed to have a special affinity with teenage girls recently. Logically speaking, a stingy person like him who had no interest in life would not be liked by girls. Was this also due to the Gravity Unicom package?
"Um, do you want to eat?"
In fact, Liu Hao had been paying attention to the girl on the other side. She seemed to want to say something but was hesitant, especially when Liu Hao asked her a question, her eyes became panicked and confused again. It showed that this girl was indeed a little introverted, or not good at communicating with others. It was no wonder that Liu Hao misunderstood her as deaf-mute.
"Really not eating? Then I'll eat it."
Liu Hao put the biscuit into his mouth and pointed at the Band-Aid on his knee and said, "This was given to me by a good friend. I really don't know where to buy it."
"Ah."
"She said it was an Adelie penguin, which is really cute."
"Yeah, very cute."
"I don't recognize those stones. They seem to be just ordinary limestone."
“Yes, I’m just collecting…”
The girl kept her head down the whole time, looking very unconfident, and didn't dare to look into the eyes of the person she was talking to.
Liu Hao could sense that the girl seemed to have some psychological problems, but he wasn't some nosy psychiatrist. He simply smiled and said to the girl, "Okay, now that makes things clear. Finally, my name is Liu Hao, Liu as in willow tree, Hao as in good person."
When she heard Liu Hao say his name, the girl suddenly raised her head, an incredible look in her eyes, and her thin lips slightly opened, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.
However, considering that the girl's behavior has always been somewhat different from that of ordinary people, Liu Hao thought that she might be surprised by her Chinese name.
After waiting for a while but receiving no reply from the girl, Liu Hao was not annoyed. He just packed his bag, stood up and said, "Fate is really amazing. I'm very happy to meet you. Goodbye."
"Hey?" Yao Lenai raised her head and asked, "Are you leaving now?"
"Well, I'm here for a trip, so of course I have to hurry to the next stop." Liu Hao waved to the two girls, "Goodbye."
"Oh, bye."
Yao Lenai waved to Liu Hao while eating snacks. As for the other girl, she seemed to be still immersed in the surprise just now. She looked in the direction of Liu Hao's back and lowered her head again, burying it deeper and deeper.
Originally, Liu Hao didn't intend to care about anything anymore, but he saw the girl's reaction out of the corner of his eye. He felt inexplicably concerned. The further he walked, the heavier his legs felt. So he simply turned around and walked back to the girl.
