The thief just grabbed it and ran away immediately, pushing the people in front of him to stagger.
Lin Baici had an angry look on his face and immediately chased after him.
"Jun Lin!"
Mari Goto shouted.
She was worried that something might happen to Lin Baici, and wanted to follow him, but the ground was full of things that fell out of Lin Baici's backpack, and she couldn't ignore it.
I could only squat down and clean it up quickly.
Most of the papers were white, but some had been used for drawing. Mari Goto picked up a few and was suddenly stunned.
"Eh?"
Goto Mari saw the painting in her hand, which showed her sitting on the railing, holding a can of drink in her hand.
She is cute yet cute.
Goto Mari immediately remembered that day...
At dusk, I and Lin Baici were chatting on the roadside.
The perspective of this oil painting is what Lin Baici is looking at. The girl is wearing a student uniform, and is a little cute despite her youthfulness.
She was now covered in the sunset, with a slight smile on her face. I don't know if it could warm the whole world, but it definitely warmed the person who looked at her.
I don’t know why, as soon as Mari Goto saw this painting, this idea popped into his mind.
If the boy who drew the picture didn't like the girl, he wouldn't be able to draw her so beautifully, right?
Goto Mari turned to another picture. She was riding a bicycle, running out of a path in a sunflower field, pedaling hard up the hill.
The next picture shows her running across the beach and swimming towards the drowning man in the sea...
Then there is the girl on the rooftop, shyly thanking her!
He is a new friend cheering Lin Baici on the training ground.
Snack shops, ramen shops, convenience stores...
Goto Mari discovered that Lin Baici had drawn all the places he and she had been.
On the picture, there is only Mari Goto, but the angle chosen is such that others can understand at a glance that even if the person who painted the picture does not like her, he still has a favorable impression of her.
Mari Goto's cheeks felt hot, as if she had a fever, especially after seeing an oil painting of fireworks being set off in the night sky, her heart skipped a beat.
On the screen, the main body is still a girl, but there is a boy's hand reaching in, as if breaking the dimensional barrier.
The girl held that hand and looked back here. The gorgeous fireworks in the night sky made her smile even sweeter and more adorable.
Anyone who sees this scene will know that the girl agreed to the boy's confession.
"Jun Lin...want to confess to me?"
As a local, Mari Goto certainly knew this place, the back mountain where she would take Lin Bai to leave later.
There is a small shrine on the top of the mountain. Standing there, you can see the entire town and the crescent-shaped bay, which is very beautiful.
"Truth, I'm sorry to trouble you!"
When Goto Mari heard this, she shook her hands and quickly cleaned up the drawings on the ground.
Lin Baici knelt down and looked at Goto Mari's expression when she wasn't paying attention.
Well, it’s a little red!
It seems that the oil painting tactic is working.
These oil paintings by Lin Baici were not done blindly. Instead, they recorded every moment of getting to know Mari Goto from his perspective and tried to beautify them as much as possible.
Girls all like beauty and romance. What’s more, when you see these exquisite paintings, you can see that the artist painted them carefully.
Lin Baici had never studied painting, but he had divine soul sketches, and the things he drew were comparable to those of a camera. In addition, Lin Baici himself also had certain aesthetic appreciation skills, so these paintings were all qualified love letters.
That’s right!
Love letters made from paintings.
Lin Baici couldn't take the initiative to show Goto Mari, that would be too deliberate and the shock effect would be reduced, so Gu Qingqiu asked Yijisheng to pretend to be a thief, find an opportunity to tear open the backpack, and let the paintings scatter.
Lin Bai quit chasing the thief, so Mari Goto could see these paintings...
The plan was perfect!
Goto Mari did feel Lin Baici's "feelings", so she didn't dare to look at Lin Baici.
"Give me this!"
Lin Baici reached for the drawing paper in Goto Mari's hand, with a hint of nervousness and embarrassment on his face and tone.
With the blessing of a performing master, it was very easy for Lin Baici to make such an expression.
Lin Baici packed up his things, found a grocery stall, bought a random bag, and stuffed them in.
"What did you just say you wanted to take me to?"
Lin Baici asked.
"Well……"
Mari Goto originally wanted to take Lin Baici to the top of the mountain to watch the fireworks, but she just saw Lin Baici's painting. What if he confessed to her...
Goto Mari discovered that she did not reject Lin Baici's love, nor did she think of rejecting him. Instead, she was worried about the people in the village.
"truth?"
Lin Baici pretended to be confused.
"Walk!"
No matter, let's watch the fireworks first.
Goto Mari took Lin Baici and climbed the stone steps to the top of the mountain.
After passing through the red torii gate, the two people saw a small open space.
A small platform was built in the southwest corner and surrounded by railings.
That was the place with the best view, but there were already several couples waiting there.
It should be said that most of the people who came to the top of the mountain today were lovers. Two couples even hid in the shadow of a corner of the shrine, hugging each other, playing and kissing.
In previous years, Mari Goto always felt tortured while watching the fireworks, but this time, she didn't feel it at all.
Lin Baici's voice echoed in my ears, pleasant and comfortable.
She even wished that time would move slower.
…
Suddenly, a ball of light trailing orange-red smoke rose vertically into the sky. When it reached the highest point, it exploded with a bang.
The fireworks are brilliant!
That scene was like a large swath of stars being shaken down by a naughty child.
"here we go!"
Mari Goto was very excited.
Fireworks take off one by one, blooming, and the lake light shining on the sea level shines.
Bang bang bang!
Looking at those fireworks, Lin Baici suddenly turned his head and looked at Mari Goto affectionately: "Mari, I like you!"
In fact, I should add another sentence, can you be my girlfriend?
This is the standard procedure for confession, but when the words came to his lips, Lin Baici didn't want to say them.
Although this is a purification rule pollution, it is indeed my first romantic confession, so I feel a bit shortchanged.
The fireworks were loud, but Mari Goto still heard them.
She thought she would hesitate for a long time, but in fact, after just a few seconds, she lowered her head and said yes.
Lin Baici smiled tenderly, took a step forward, and hugged Goto Mari.
【What are you thinking about? Kiss her!】
The god couldn't stand it anymore.
"Isn't it necessary?"
Lin Baici didn't want to do it: "Wouldn't the pollution be purified if the confession is successful?"
[This is divine pollution, the intensity is different. You don’t want the duck you got to fly away, right?]
Even the god suggested this, and Lin Baici had no choice but to lower his head and kiss Goto Mari.
It was the first time Goto Mari kissed, and she was a little unaccustomed to it. She struggled twice, but soon stopped moving, and even hugged Lin Baici.
…
"It's done!"
Long Miaomiao beamed: "Let me tell you, no one can resist Brother Lin's charm!"
"Let's go!"
Gu Qingqiu stood on the steps, looked at it from a distance, then turned and walked down.
It has been delayed for many days. I hope Lin Baici can squeeze out useful information from that Sakura girl.
When the fireworks show ended, Lin Bai resigned and sent Mari Goto home.
Neither of them walked very fast. When they arrived at the door of the house, Goto Mari hesitated again and again and finally said: "Come to me tomorrow morning!"
Lin Baici had a sudden thought and thought it was time to move on to the next scene, but the expression on his face remained unchanged: "Let's have breakfast together?"
"Stop asking!"
After Goto Mari finished speaking, she turned around and ran back home without waiting for Lin Baici's reply.
In the evening, everyone gathered in Lin Baici's room to discuss the next plan.
"The place she takes you to should be the location of the next rule pollution!"
Xia Hongyao rubbed her hands together and said excitedly: "We won't get lost, so don't mark the road, lest she discovers you and all your efforts will be wasted!"
"Um!"
Read the error-free version in 69 Book Bar! 6=9+ Book_Bar publishes this novel.
Lin Baici didn't care. If everyone got lost, he would deal with it alone.
Everyone talked until one o'clock in the morning, rehearsed possible situations and how to solve them, and then went to bed.
At 7:50 a.m. the next day, Lin Baici appeared at the door of Mari Goto's house on time.
Mari Goto was still wearing the same sailor uniform, but this time she was carrying a hiking bag and wearing a fisherman's hat.
"Get in the car!"
Mari Goto pushed her bicycle and motioned for Lin Baici to come up.
"I'll take you!"
How could Lin Baici let a girl give him a ride?
Goto Mari shook her head and signaled Lin Baici to hurry up.
Lin Baici could only do as he was told.
Get in the car and set off.
Lin Baici didn't have the nerve to put his arms around Goto Mari's waist, so he walked with her into the mountains along the road while the wind blew.
An hour later, the two people arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The cement road is gone.
"Let's go!"
Mari Goto led the way. Today, she talked a lot less and looked very worried.
Lin Baici didn't ask where you want to take me, but showed an attitude of trusting you.
The two people walked along the road into the mountain for more than an hour, then turned onto a fork in the road, and half an hour later, there was another fork in the road.
The mountain road is getting harder and harder to walk, and because there are few people around, the surroundings are extremely quiet.
Suddenly, Mari Goto stopped.
Lin Bai didn't say anything, and his eyes quickly glanced around.
There was nothing suspicious, just trees, weeds, and rocks that can be seen everywhere in the mountains.
Mari Goto stood there, seeming to be making the final struggle. After about three or four minutes, she turned back to greet Lin Baici.
"Jun Lin, this way!"
Mari Goto walked to the grass nearby.
Lin Baici followed.
The two of them were walking in a forest with no mountain roads.
The thick fallen leaves underfoot were stepped on, making a rustling sound, and occasionally there was the sound of dead branches being cut.
An hour later, the two walked onto a foot-wide path again.
"From here, you can reach our village!"
Mari Goto finally spoke.
"It's such a long way home for you!"
Lin Baici felt distressed: "As a grown man, I feel tired after walking so much!"
"When you get to the village, don't run around, don't look around, and don't talk around. You stay at home, and I will take you to worship the Dragon Girl and seek blessings!"
Goto Mari warned, then remained silent for a while, and then said: "If you are afraid, it is still too late to go back now!"
"Sounds a little weird!"
Lin Baici frowned.
"Our village is relatively old and has many ancient rules!"
"understand!"
Lin Baici smiled. In fact, at this time, he should say something to comfort Goto Mari, saying that he loved her and would not give up, but Lin Baici really couldn't say it.
Too disgusting!
Fortunately, Goto Mari is not the kind of little girl who likes to listen to sweet talk. In addition, she has no experience in love, so she didn't realize that Lin Baici was acting at all.
It was two o'clock in the afternoon, and Lin Baici finally saw a small village in the distance, located halfway up the mountain.
The terraced fields are staggered and rice is grown there.
As he was about to enter the village, Goto Mari stopped and walked to a statue over a foot high on the roadside. He took out some snacks from his backpack and placed them in front of the statue.
Lin Baici frowned slightly. The statue was ugly, with a hideous face, like an evil ghost crawling out of hell to seek life.
Lin Baici's backpack contained snacks for Goto Mari. He hesitated, opened his backpack, took some of the most expensive snacks, and placed them in front of the statue.
"This is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. I heard from the old people in the village that it has been protecting us!"
Snap!
Goto Mari clapped her hands, bowed three times to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and then continued to move forward.
Soon, two people entered the village.
Lin Baici secretly observed.
There were almost no people in the village, and except for the occasional barking of dogs, there was no other sound.
"Aunt Yayoi!"
Lin Baici finally saw the first person.
It was a woman holding a washbasin who had just returned from washing clothes by the river. Her hair was wet, and she must have taken a shower.
"Truth, you..."
When Aunt Yayoi saw Lin Baici, her mouth turned into an 'O' shape in shock.
"Hello, I am a friend of classmate Zhenri and I am here for a trip."
Lin Baici didn't care whether the other party understood or not, so he greeted him first.
Yayoi was also chattering in Japanese, looking at Lin Baici from time to time. Even after the two parties separated, she looked back at Lin Baici.
Yayoi, who was about to go home, immediately turned into a house.
Not long after, one woman after another appeared in this family's house.
Lin Baici followed Goto Mari back home.
"Sister, sister, are you back?"
A little girl heard the noise and ran out happily. When she saw Lin Baici, she was startled and said, "Man?"
Then she ran into the house: "Mom, there is a man!"
Lin Baici was sitting in the living room, drinking tea.
Goto Mari's mother made tea and left.
"I don't know what kind of pollution this is?"
Lin Baici thought.
There is definitely something wrong with this village. I hope Gu Qingqiu and the others will not come in hastily.
…
"Is this Jizo? So ugly!"
Xia Hongyao looked at the statues on the side of the road with a look of disgust on his face. What kind of aesthetics do Japanese people have? Not only do they look good, but at least they don't make them so scary.
The group of people continued walking forward.
No tribute was given to Ksitigarbha.
Because the snacks presented by Lin Baici and Goto Mari had disappeared, otherwise Gu Qingqiu would definitely notice this detail.
