Chapter 604 He Arrived in Loyal Kyoto
Chapter 604 He Returns to Loyal Kyoto
The clear river water flowed between the boulders, and Yamauchi Sakura held Hojo Kyosuke's hand and skipped forward.
She seemed to have really returned to her childhood. As soon as she jumped to the other side of the river, she turned around and jumped back, as if to show the person she liked how she had mastered this amazing flying stone skill to become the leader of the children when she was a child.
It was also as if she wanted to bring Kyosuke back to her childhood through this ancient river with these leaps and bounds, to make up for the years when they had never met.
Even though he was already a childhood sweetheart that Eriri envied, Sakura still greedily felt that it was not enough. Life is full of... Yamauchi Sakura met Hojo Kyosuke when she was nine years old, why couldn't they meet at birth?
Over and over again, the two stepped on the jumping stones to cross the river, until their trouser legs were wet by the splashing water and they finally returned to the river bank. In fact, Sakura wanted to show off her fishing skills when she was a child, but was persuaded by Hojo Kyosuke, who said that she would bring Momotaro with her next time so that the puppy could learn from her.
While the two were playing, the sun had already moved westward, and the locals in Kyoto had finished their meals and were out for a stroll. Compared to the Tokyo people who were commemorating the TV show and the aftertaste of a glass of beer, the Kyoto people seemed more willing to cherish the Kamogawa River in the sunset.
There were already quite a few people walking on the pedestrian path along the river, but what surprised Hojo Kyosuke was that several couples had already sat on the riverbank, which should have been filled with children wearing yellow hats.
The reason why Kamogawa has become a place for people to relax and cool off is inseparable from its own conditions. Compared with the straight up and down shape of the river bank of ordinary rivers, Kamogawa is much friendlier. The river bank is extremely flat, with a slope of less than 30 degrees, and the gaps between the bricks and stones are full of green grass. It's almost like a label with the words "Come sit on me" is needed.
There was another lawn on the gentle riverbank, and then a path for people to walk on. At this moment, couples were sitting side by side on the grassy riverbank, rubbing their heads together, talking while looking at the Kamo River.
I haven't even started showing my affection with Sakurayoshi yet, and you guys are already starting?
Hojo Kyosuke felt it was unreasonable and was very angry.
"Hey, this is called the 'Duck River Equal Interval Law' (Duck River Equal Interval Law),"
Noticing someone's gaze, Sakura smiled and said:
"This place is very close to Kyoto University and has been a famous dating spot for more than a hundred years."
As she spoke, a sly smile flashed across the girl's face, and she pulled Hojo Kyosuke's hand and walked down the riverbank:
"The so-called Kamogawa equal spacing rule says that couples who come to Kamogawa for a date will keep a certain distance between them. According to my observations and statistics, this distance is 3.2 meters! Once the distance is less than this, the moans caused by kissing will be heard by the people next to them!"
???
Hojo Kyosuke glared and said, "No, how did you know?"
As a childhood friend who was in tune with her, Yamauchi Sakura immediately received the signal, so the girl stopped and turned around, blinking her big eyes and said confidently:
"I've already said that this is observation and statistics. Of course, I heard it myself! I found a couple who were kissing, and gradually shortened the distance and approached them quietly. When they were four meters away, I could vaguely hear their conversation. When they were three and a half meters away, their conversations were clearer, but if they were also talking, they couldn't hear clearly. When they were three and a half meters away, I could hear the kissing moans!
Practice makes perfect, Kyousuke!"
Sakura taught him while shaking her head, her upturned face full of "I'm awesome, come and praise me!"
Hojo Kyosuke couldn't help but laugh at the girl's cute little appearance. If it were a normal child, he would probably make trouble because his play area was occupied.
But Yamauchi Sakura... this guy might really be researching this matter with a scientific research heart, probably hoping to make some major discovery that would allow him to have his name engraved on the Kamo Bridge.
"Then~~"
Sakura's voice suddenly rose a few notches, then she pulled Hojo Kyosuke's hand and suddenly moved forward, brazenly inserting herself between the two pairs of couples. Hojo Kyosuke said nothing and sat down in cooperation.
So, the original arrangement on the river bank was men and women, but now it has become men and women, men and women, and the most important thing is that the intervals that originally made people feel very safe have suddenly become crowded.
"Ah~~"
The girl let out a comfortable sigh:
"When I was little, I always thought that when I found a boyfriend, I would definitely sit next to them so that everyone could see how good my relationship with my boyfriend was!"
she announced loudly.
The couples on both sides had not yet recovered from the panic of being deprived of their safe distance, and were stunned by Yamauchi Sakura's shocking remarks.
Ha ha ha ha--
Facing the gaze of the boy next to him, Hojo Kyosuke didn't feel embarrassed at all. He raised his hand to say hello and shouted "Hi~"
"……Hi?"
The boy in the contrasting plaid shirt responded hesitantly.
On the other hand, Yamauchi Sakura already knew the name and major of the girl in the other couple.
Well, these two couples are students of Kyoto University. The distance between the university and the Kamogawa River is only a few hundred meters, which is too close to be their backyard.
Although Kyoto University has always been famous for its freedom (hun) (luan) and openness (shen) (jing), when faced with the unusual Hojo Kyosuke and Yamauchi Sakura, he instantly turned into a shy and introverted student.
More importantly, these two people are not ordinary people. Not to mention Yamauchi Sakura's infectious power, Hojo Kyosuke himself is a man with strong personal charm. The two couples wanted to curse when they were disturbed, but as the conversation unfolded, their reluctance instantly turned into enthusiasm, and the students who were trained under the open and free school spirit immediately let go.
The two girls were curious about how Yamauchi Sakura had the courage to do such a thing, how she came up with this idea, and whether she had found such a handsome and outstanding boyfriend. The two boys were curious about why such an outstanding person as Hojo Kyosuke had never appeared in Kamogawa, whether it was a headache for him to have a girlfriend like Yamauchi Sakura, and how he knew so many things...
But the good times didn't last long. Yamauchi Sakura suddenly lost interest in the new friends around her, as if she had had enough fun. She hugged Hojo Kyosuke's arm, grinned and said:
"He, my boyfriend!"
"Ah? We know." The two couples were a little confused.
"Hey, I just want to tell you one more time~"
The girl was smiling, her expression unusually lively.
Ok? ? ?
Girl A and boy A looked at each other, both speechless.
Hojo Kyousuke raised his hand and covered the hand that Sakura had wrapped around his arm, and he also grinned and said:
"She, my girlfriend."
"Hey - okay, okay, we already know!"
Girl B and boy B looked at each other with disgust written all over their faces.
Sakura then buried her little head in Kyosuke's arms and arched her back hard, humming with happiness.
The two pairs of strange lovers made disgusted sounds at the same time. Sakura giggled and pulled Hojo Kyosuke to the next battlefield.
"Hey, have you eaten?"
"Yes, it's good. If your stomach is empty, you will feel hungry after feeling the river breeze."
"Oh, there's a bug under your butt."
"The stone is so cold, Kyousuke, hold me."
Like a leader on inspection or a troublemaker in a mysterious castle, Yamauchi Sakura drags Hojo Kyosuke along to wantonly destroy the spacing rules of Kamogawa.
Although she seemed to be a psychopath, the girl's behavior did not cause disgust among many couples. Although there were occasional exceptions, most of the couples here were indeed students of Kyoto University. As students who could raise cattle and sheep in the dormitory, set up vending machines to sell drinks and act as middlemen to make crazy profits, and cosplay as aliens to attend graduation ceremonies, everyone just enthusiastically recommended to Yamauchi Sakura and Hojo Kyosuke that they must apply to Kyoto University in the future.
If these couples dating on the river bank are already hated by countless singles, then the couple Hojo Kyosuke and Yamauchi Sakura are hated by other couples.
Everyone envied Yamauchi Sakura's vitality and admired Hojo Kyosuke's tolerance, and they felt like fainting from toothache just looking at their sweet and inseparable relationship.
Even the couples in the back who hadn't been harassed yet were already waving impatiently, wanting the two to come over quickly.
Hojo Kyosuke held Sakura's hand tightly the whole time, fearing that she would accidentally slip into the river while jumping around, and also fearing that couples whose kiss was interrupted would get angry and embarrassed.
When everyone asked him if it would be a headache to have such a lively girlfriend, he said nothing but just smiled, and that doting smile said it all.
When asked by senior students how the two got together.
"Love at first sight? I thought, ah, he's the one!"
"Choice, she chose me, and I chose him."
The dreamy sunset fell from the sky, the Daimonji Mountain in the distance seemed to have fallen from the sky, and the end of the Kamogawa River seemed to be flowing to the sky. The red, pink, blue and purple colors of the sunset fell on the water and were printed on people's faces.
Hojo Kyosuke saw the sunset from Yamauchi Sakura's eyes.
Yamauchi Sakura saw herself in Hojo Kyosuke's eyes.
"Hey, Kyousuke, why is it that I'm the only thing in your eyes?"
"Because I'm looking at you."
"Idiot, you should say how do you know I'm looking at you if you're not looking at me."
"Okay then, I know you're looking at me." Hojo Kyosuke followed suit.
When the two finally had enough fun, they shook off the couples who were still reluctant to leave and returned to the sidewalk. Among the first couple who were harassed, boy A frowned at the tall back of Hojo Kyosuke.
"What's wrong? Are you angry with those two kids?" his girlfriend asked.
"No, I just thought that boy looked familiar."
Boy A, Mikazuki Okawa, took out his cell phone, opened the browser and started searching.
"Ahhh! As expected, I felt like it! It really is Hojo Kyousuke!"
Mikazuki Okawa widened his eyes and showed his phone screen to his girlfriend.
What is displayed on the browser is a group photo of the recipients of the 2015 Honya Awards. Among the many staff and guests, the handsome and upright Hojo Kyosuke is particularly conspicuous.
“Huh!?” The girlfriend also widened her eyes. What was going on? Why did she feel that the boy was more handsome after knowing his identity?
Without waiting for his girlfriend to say anything, Mikazuki Okawa stood up and chased after Hojo Kyosuke without saying a word.
"What are you doing?"
"Go get Mr. Hojo's autograph! He is the youngest winner of the Neon Mystery Association Award!" Mikazuki shouted without turning his head.
"The awards haven't been presented yet..." the girlfriend muttered, but she also agreed with her boyfriend's words. They were both fans of mystery novels, so they were able to recognize Hojo Kyosuke.
"Teacher Hojo, wait for me!"
Mikazuki's shout attracted the attention of many couples on the riverbank.
Then many college students took out their mobile phones at the same time.
"Kyosuke Hojo!"
"It really is!"
"Fuck! I told you there can't be many guys this handsome!"
"Why did he come to Kyoto?"
"His girlfriend is from Kyoto!"
"Great! Kyoto has Hojo Kyousuke!"
"..."
A series of chaotic exclamations rang out, and many people stood up and followed Mikazuki Okawa.
Hojo Kyosuke heard the sound and looked back, his scalp tingling instantly, he pulled Yamauchi Sakura's hand and prepared to retreat. But he encountered resistance, the girl not only did not run away but stopped directly.
"Hey, Kyosuke, just consider this as an apology for disturbing them just now?" Sakura said with a smile.
Someone then stopped:
"Yes, yes, but..."
He hesitated:
"Now it's time to take a walk with you."
"Haha~~"
Seeing Kyosuke's reluctance, Yamauchi Sakura chuckled, then held Kyosuke's hand in his arms and comforted him:
"It will only take a moment. I am also very happy to see that Kyousuke is so popular in my hometown."
"alright."
Hojo Kyosuke's frown relaxed. It was not that he was unwilling to satisfy his fans, he just didn't want his date with Sakura to be disturbed. Since this was also part of their date, it was completely OK.
I took the photo and the pen handed to me by Yamauchi Sakura...
"Huh??? Where did you get the photo and the pen?"
Hojo Kyosuke turned his head, looking confused.
"Ah! Kyosuke, you are so ignorant! This is your loyal Kyoto, the Kyoto where even the old men and women on the bus will give up their seats for you. Shouldn't this kind of thing be prepared?"
With a playful smile on his face, he bent over:
"Come, I'll be your table."
Hojo Kyosuke rolled his eyes. He assured me that he didn't do this often, but he couldn't help it this time. For the loyal Kyoto, the fact that a young man in his seventies gave up his seat could be ranked among the top ten black histories in his life.
The crowd rushed over and saw that Mr. Hojo had already prepared the photos and the pen himself, and they became even more excited.
He really is worthy of being the son-in-law of Kyoto!
"No, 'As expected of me' is the cherry tree in my house. Oh, yes, that is also a cherry tree in Kyoto."
Thanks to the big guys for their monthly tickets, recommendation tickets and reward support, thank you.
