Kyoto, there are only four subway entrances in the park.
The message sent was like a rock sinking into the sea, without any echo. Akane Kirino stood by the roadside, staring at her phone for a while, but there was still no read prompt.
"What is Zong Gu doing..."
She murmured, and suddenly a force coming from behind almost knocked her to the ground.
"Feel sorry!"
The perpetrator hurriedly reached out, and she had already stood firm on her own.
"I'm really sorry!"
"No...it's okay."
The person who hit the person was a young man, who seemed to be a college student, with a full of apology on his face. At this time, the crowd was surging, and Akane Kirino understood that he did not mean it, so she didn't say much.
Seeing that her face was not very good, the man asked again: "Does it really matter?"
"Yeah, it's okay."
There was a girl next to him holding his arm and lowered her head slightly when she looked over to express her apology.
The small accident lasted less than half a minute and ended with the apology and walking away from the two college students.
"The girl was quite cute just now... Yuichi didn't bump into it on purpose, right?"
"Stop kidding, didn't Masako see that I was hit by someone else..."
After walking a little further, the conversation between the two was gone. Akane Kirino didn't mind the collision just now, but she didn't understand why she was staring at them.
When the other party got into the abortion and could no longer see it, she withdrew her gaze and looked in front of her.
"There are indeed many people here..."
The messages sent before still have not been replied to.
She put away her cell phone and looked around the four-way avenue.
There are several venues for the Kyoto Chinese Valentine's Day Festival, such as the Kitano-Chanya River venue near Tenman Palace, Nijo Castle venue in Horikawa, the Bonfire Valley venue, the Umekoji Park venue, and the Miyazu Market venue in the north of Kyoto Prefecture;
She was alone and didn't want to run too far. She chose the Kamakawa venue between three to four gardens.
Following the crowd for a while, I came to Sijiao Bridge. On the originally dim Yachuan River embankment, a string of lights lit up, which were composed of bamboo branches and LED lamp beads.
After standing on the bridge for a while, Akane Kirino took a few photos at the bottom, then switched to the camera and took one for herself in the light.

Akane Kirino: I've arrived at the Sijo Bridge.

Akane Kirino: I came here in a bathrobe.
The messages were sent one after another, but none of them could be paid attention to.
Crazy-
The water was turbulent, and Kasuki was rushing around, which also brought coolness to the people on both sides of the shore and the bridge. But Akane Kirino felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, and she remembered for no reason what her mother said before going out.
[...Akari plans to go to Kyoto alone to attend the Qixi Festival? Isn't this asking for trouble? Don't come back crying then."]
Even though she was knocked and staggered as soon as she left the subway, she felt that she wouldn't have gone back crying, but she did feel a little bit asking for trouble.
There was no companion by my side, and I was wandering around the festival alone, which was indeed not fun.
But they've come...
Looking around the bridge for a while, she decided to look at the shining rays of light on the river bank, and it would be nice to take a few photos from close range.
Back at the bridge, walk down the river bank in a crowded area, and pass through the entrance with the [Qianxi Festival in Beijing] hanging across, next to it is a shiny light swath.
Akane Kirino didn't stop, followed the crowd and stopped until it was less crowded.
"Wow……"
The essence of the Scenery of Light is a bamboo, which is erected and fixed in a binding manner. The lower part is shaved cleanly, and the fine branches with bamboo leaves are concentrated on the top.
A string of white LED lamp beads wrap around the bamboo branches from bottom to top, embellishing a dazzling light in the ambiguous night, like stars.
In addition, many colorful Chinese Valentine's Day short books have been hung among the bamboo branches, with various wishes written. The light sag on the Yachuan River embankment can only be hung short books purchased from the entrance, at the price
It seems to be one hundred yen per piece.
The wind on the riverside blew the bamboo branches and short books, and the shiny lamp beads swayed slightly, which also made Akane Kirino's mood better.
She took out her cell phone and looked for the most suitable angle. Before she could press the shutter, Yu Guang suddenly caught a glimpse of a couple sitting below, and they were looking up at her.
“…”
Young couples sat everywhere on the grass by the river, especially under the bamboo branches of the light. It seemed that the light beads above their heads were not emitted, but some kind of blessing that could make people immerse themselves in sweet love forever.
"that……"
The girl among the couple spoke and looked at her cell phone frequently, "If you can, please don't take a short book I wrote... I always feel a little shy."
"Hey...I'm sorry!"
Akane Kirino was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that she immediately stated that she had no intention of taking the text in the short book.
"Yeah……"
She didn't say much, but judging from the expression on her face, she was obviously not very relieved.
Akane Kirino had no choice but to find another place.
She continued to move forward.
On one side is Yakugawa, on the other side of the river bank are restaurants and restaurants, with bright lights. The temporary terrace built in summer, Yakugawa cool bed is full of guests, and it is very lively, with smiling faces under the lights.
After looking up, Akane Kirino continued to walk forward, then suddenly stopped and looked up again.
“Hey…”
A young woman was lying on the guardrail beside the terrace, holding a wine glass in her hand, and the light was reflected, and she was smiling at her.
The face above was so beautiful that Akane Kirino was convinced that she had seen her before, but it took a while before she remembered her identity.
"It seems to be Soya and Suzu's teacher...Teacher Hachi?"
With some distance between the two sides, Akane Kirino was not familiar with her, and the other party just smiled, and she couldn't be sure that the person she was looking at was herself, so she didn't stay for too long.
She lowered her head to the top, saying hello.
When she walked away, she looked back and saw that the beautiful woman by the terrace was gone.
"It's true that he is Soya's teacher... It's really beautiful."
Akane Kirino couldn't help but want to share the encounter on the riverside with Soya, but just opened Line and looked at the series of unread messages, her enthusiasm suddenly cooled down a lot.
"Hmph... I must be visiting the Qixi Festival on the Xiantai side, so I don't even have time to watch the phone."
This guess made her a little annoyed, and then she was a little depressed.
She doesn't want to go any further.
Stepping on the slope grass and going down to the river bank, looking at the flowing dark river water, Akane Kirino took a deep breath.
thump!
The paper net is already thin, and it is even more broken after being soaked in water. As soon as the goldfish caught leaves the water, they regain their freedom again.
“…”
Holding the broken net, he pursed his lower lip towards Wuling, and handed a new pair of paper nets next to him.
She took it, immersed in the water again, and suddenly raised it as a small red goldfish swam above.
And this time, the goldfish were not even able to carry out the water.
Holding a handful of fish-fishing paper nets in his hand, Zong Gu said nothing and handed her a new one.
Broken.
Breaked again.
Not picked up again...
The paper net for fishing was 100 yen per pair, and the Asukiri used one to destroy the other, so Soya simply bought a large handful of them at one time.
There was no harvest for a long time, and the two of them were still happy. The owner of the goldfish stall also looked at it with a smile, while the other little girl squatting next to her was extremely anxious.
Another pair of paper nets were soaked in water and broke, and she finally couldn't help it: "It wasn't what I got!"
He glanced at Wuling and ignored her.
Zong Gu handed her a new pair of paper nets and gave her a pair.
“Hey…”
She raised her head and Soya smiled at her, "What's your name?"
"My name is Huali..."
"Little Flower Li, teach me."
"All right."
Chaowuling also stopped and watched quietly.
And Huali turned her head and looked at her, signaling her to pay attention to her movements.
"First of all, the paper film in the middle is very thin and cannot be soaked in water all at once, as it will easily break."
"Only immerse in the upper part." By example, she held the paper net, tilted it at an angle of about forty-five degrees, and slowly cut into the water. "You should put it slowly into the water like this, my sister said, the pig power of this water is the least
…”
"Resistance." Soya corrected.
"Huh? Well, it's resistance...ah."
Because of his correction, the little girl raised her head slightly, and when she lowered her head, she found that she had accidentally immersed the entire paper net in the water and quickly lifted it up.
Zong Gu handed over a new pair of paper nets.
After hesitating for a moment, she didn't answer, "It's okay... the paper hasn't been broken yet."
Immerse half of the paper net in water again, and the rosewood quickly selected the target to be picked up, and move the paper net slowly approached;
Drive the little goldfish to the corner of the pool, she used a circle of harder frames outside the paper net to lift the goldfish's head, and when half of her body enters the net, she will pick it up one after another.
"Snap it up..."
thump.
“…”
He smiled at Wuling.
"It's almost done." She handed the paper net in her hand to Huali, "Do it again."
"Um!"
After taking the new paper net, Huali used her old trick again, and this time she was much calmer and successfully caught the goldfish.
Zong Gu handed over the small bowl that had been idle for a long time and caught the hard-won first fish.
He looked at Chao Wuling who looked up, "It's really not easy."
"Um."
"Ling will try again."
"good."
The skills of Huali's guidance can be 100% successful, but it is much more reasonable than the previous unruly Hulao. Chao Wuling continued to try it, changed to two new paper nets, and finally successfully picked up a red one.
Little white goldfish.
"Snap it up!"
Seeing her picking up the goldfish, the instructor Huali was both happy and relieved.
There was another goldfish in the small bowl, swimming unsteadily and shaking its beautiful tail.
After one success, Chao Wuling also lost interest. She took the small bowl from Zong Gu and replaced him with it.
Not to mention watching for a long time and accumulating a lot of theoretical experience, his control over power is much more sophisticated than that of Chaowuling. The paper net cut into the water and moved to the pool without any pause, squeezing the little goldfish that had no way to escape.
On the paper net, then take it out of the water, and the whole process is completed in one go.
He held the bowl towards Wuling and then plopped, and there was another goldfish in the bowl.
"So amazing!" Huali exclaimed.
Zong Gu smiled and looked at Chaowuling: "Do you still want to play?"
She shook her head.
"Then go to the next place."
"good."
In Huali's surprised eyes, Chao Wuling poured all three goldfish in the bowl back to the fish pond.
Neither of them had the intention to raise fish. Even if there was one, it would be difficult to take it back so far, so it would be better to let it go.
"I've given it to you."
Zong Gu bought dozens of paper nets at one time before, but at this time there was still about half left, and they were all given to Huali.
“Hey…thank you.”
Leaving the goldfish stall that had been lingering for a long time, Zong Gu pulled Chaowuling and followed the fragrance to a fried noodles stall.
After waiting for a while, the guest in front left, Zonggu said, "Two servings of fried noodles."
"Okay!"
The shovel and the hot iron plate kept colliding, and the noodles rolled, and the fragrance and heat surged together.
After staring at him for a while, Zong Gu looked around and looked around again.
After nightfall, the entire street was closed into a pedestrian street, and various stalls were set up on both sides for food, drink and entertainment. The last day of the Xiantai Chinese Valentine Festival was also the most lively time. The only regret was that the fireworks conference had ended.
"The fireworks are on the eve festival." The eve festival happened a few days ago.
"Um."
However, what summer is most lacking is fireworks and festivals. If you miss it on the Sintai, you can always encounter it elsewhere.
"Brother, your fried noodles are ready."
After taking two servings of fried noodles, Zong Gu and Chao Wuling avoided the flowing crowd and walked towards the side of the road.
This was the first food the two of them ate after they started roaming the festival. Perhaps it was hungry and felt that the taste was better than expected.
“The taste is a little heavy, but it tastes pretty good.”
"Um."
It was also because I just started shopping that Zong Gu specially asked the fried noodles to be smaller, leaving room for other subsequent delicacies.
After eating the fried noodles, the two of them merged into the abortion and continued to walk along the street.
In addition to catching goldfish, Zong Gu also saw a stall of catching water polos or other small toys. The contents were similar. He and Chao Wuling did not have much interest after experiencing it once.
When passing by the shooting booth, the two stopped again.
There were two air guns outside, and there were snacks, toys and other things on the shelves inside, both large and small, with a distance of about twenty centimeters from each other. They could be taken away by shooting down with a gun.
"Yo, boy, do you want to try it?"
The stall owner looked at the two who were staying, "Three times three hundred yen, six times five hundred yen, ten times seven hundred yen, the grand prize is the latest Gundam model."
As he said that, he pointed to the box on the shelf.
Zong Gu glanced at it, "That big box looks heavy, can it really be beaten?"
"It's not difficult if you master certain skills." The stall owner said nonsense with a smile.
I was here to play, and Zong Gu did not hesitate and handed out a thousand-yuan bill.
"A thousand yen fifteen rounds, is it OK?"
The stall owner nodded and counted fifteen cork bullets to him.
Zong Gu distributed five bullets to Chao Wuling, picked up the air gun, and realized that it was quite heavy.
"Are there metal blocks added in it..."
Only when the gun is loaded and the two hands are raised toward Wuling, aiming is quite laborious.
Bang!
Pulling the trigger, the cork bullet flew through the gaps in the shelves and touched nothing.
She couldn't handle it and was not interested. She didn't fire the second shot and returned the remaining four bullets to him.
“It’s too heavy.”
“It’s really a bit difficult to aim.”
Having said that, Zong Gu could hold the air gun with one hand, aim for a second or two, and press the trigger.
Bang!
The flying bullet hit the Gundam model and made a muffled sound.
The carton just shook a little.
"What a pity, I almost won the grand prize." said the stall owner.
"Let me say this when I finish shooting the bullet."
Zong Gu loaded the second bullet, put it on the load with a clue, aiming at another much smaller box under the Gundam model.
Bang!
The box was shot down directly, the stall owner picked it up and handed it over to Chaowuling.
There were cookies inside. She opened the box, tasted it, and fed a piece of Zonggu again.
"Well, it's not bad."
Bitering the biscuit, Zong Gu continued to aim at the Gundam model and shot one after another.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
He aimed accurately, but he kept holding the heavy air gun and it was also very laborious to sway it easily.
The remaining twelve bullets were all shot and nine shots were shot. The Gundam model that was shot one after another kept shaking, and the direction of the paper box was also shifted, but it just didn't fall.
He picked up the cork bullet on the ground and tried to persuade the stall owner without changing his face: "What a pity, I almost won the grand prize."
“…”
Soya shook his head, then took out another thousand yen, "First fifteen more."
"OK."
Bang!
Another bullet hit, and the Gundam model still did not shift to the point where it would fall.
"—You'd better give up. There is something in the box, and it can't be killed with the power of this kind of gun."
“…”
The muzzle drooped, Zong Gu turned his head and looked at the figure who appeared between him and Chaowuling. The stall owner inside had no response to his words, let alone refuted, as if he had not heard it.
And he really didn't hear it.
"Did you see it?"
"What?" the stall owner asked.
"See." said the spirit of a high school student who looked like, "When I was preparing, I saw him stuffing something into the box. It looked quite heavy, enough to support the box."
"It's okay." Zong Gu responded to the stall owner, fired another bullet, and whispered: "Then go and help me push it."
The high school student looked at him, "That thing is quite expensive. I'm going to help you, what are the benefits of me?"
Zong Gu turned the gun.
“…”
"Just kidding." As the stall owner suddenly became nervous, Zong Gu turned the gun inside again.
"I just said it casually, but I would like to thank you for your reminder."
He no longer shoots the Gundam model that is easiest to hit and hardest to hit, but instead aims at other small objects, one hit and one accurate one.
When there were two bullets left, the high school student suddenly spoke, "If you can take me to Kyoto, I will help you."
Bang!
"Go to Kyoto to attend the Soul Sacrifice Club?"
"You know, too? That's right."
"I'll think about it."
Looking at Zong Gu who was muttering to himself, the shooting stall owner waited patiently, preparing to move out the same line after he fired the last bullet.
And he suddenly smiled at him.
“…”
Bang!
The paper box shook slightly, then fell backwards in the incredible face of his face and landed on the rope net behind.
Zong Gu's smile remained unchanged, and he stretched out his hands and waited.
"It's so dangerous... I almost missed the jackpot."
