Chapter 52

After asking some questions, Geto Suguru was now sure that Kyoto was indeed very old. Although it was not clear how old he was exactly, his experience and knowledge definitely far exceeded those cities they had known before.

They even felt that if they had met Kyoto earlier, there wouldn't have been so many unpleasant things that happened later. And Kyoto didn't mind their tricks at all. Compared to Tokyo, who got impatient after explaining a few words, Kyoto was so gentle and thoughtful that it made people want to cry.

Shinichi Hinawa had just come back to his senses from the memories of Kyoto when he saw the two little ones with touched expressions: "???" Did he miss something?

Just as he was thinking, a short figure suddenly came jogging over and bumped into Gojo Satoru's calf.

"What is this?" Gojo Satoru looked down, and saw a little girl who looked like a sticky rice ball, covering her head and looking up with tears in her eyes.

"Wow, Master, I'm going to break into pieces again." The little dumpling started to shed tears.

Despite such an adorable scene, neither Geto Suguru nor Gojo Satoru reacted. The reason was simply that they did not understand what the child said.

The young man at the side comforted the little girl with the same words: "It's okay, you won't break now, go out and play."

After being comforted, the little girl immediately trotted out to play. Gojo Satoru noticed that the pattern on the hair accessory on the back of the little girl's head was exactly the same as the pattern on the vase he had given to Mikazuki Munechika before.

Gojo Satoru: “…” He instantly understood the meaning of the key.

Xia Youjie also noticed it: "You just spoke in Chinese, right?"

"Well, I have a lot of children here. Although they have been away from home for a long time, they are still used to using the language at home, so I accompany them to use it."

The flower-growing family's vases, the Tang fruit prepared in the store, and the Shikigami who specially spoke Chinese with him. Although I already knew that Kyoto was built in imitation of Chang'an, Kyoto seemed to like the culture of the flower-growing family too much. I didn't notice it when I walked over before, but there were quite a few Shikigami with elements of the flower-growing family on them, and Gojo Satoru even scanned them with his six eyes. Compared with the Shikigami that Kyoto said helped him, most of these Shikigami were not very powerful. At first glance, they were raised as a personal hobby!

I inexplicably discovered a little hobby of respectable urban consciousness.

The introduction of Kyoto's courtyard has been almost complete. If nothing unexpected happens, they should say goodbye and go home soon. Although Kyoto said that he had left some freshly made Tang fruit for them, both of them left suddenly while completing a mission. If they didn't tell the Sorcerer Association, they wouldn't care, but Glass was still there.

As he left, Gojo Satoru was given two packs of snacks and asked in a positive manner, "If there is anything you need our help with, please let us know."

"Students just need to spend their summer vacation happily." The city consciousness is still as tolerant as that of an elder. "When you return to Kyoto, don't forget to come to the store to eat the snacks made by Tonghua."

Gojo Satoru nodded frantically. He had already adapted well to this mode of interaction between grandparents and grandchildren. It was Geto Suguru who felt bad. "We will explain the misunderstanding of the Jujutsu Association to them when we return."

The young man acted very generously: "If there are any problems later, I will let Mikazuki and the others come forward. It's time to communicate with you more."

The two technical secondary school students were happily escorted out of the gate, so they did not see the moment the gate closed. The gentle smile that the young man had been maintaining disappeared in an instant, and the spring sunshine turned into darkness.

"Master." Mikazuki Munechika came a little closer. He didn't seem surprised at all. He picked up the night light and handed it to the young man. "Tonghua is still waiting for you. Let me handle the negotiation with the sorcerer."

Kyoto was not as enthusiastic as before. He just nodded to show that he understood, took the lantern, and walked into the long dark night alone.

At this time, the sun had already risen outside, and Mikazuki Munechika walked out and blocked the sun with his hand.

“Light-kun…”

Shinichi Hinawa was walking in the courtyard holding a lantern. The shikigami who were playing in the courtyard before had disappeared without a trace. He was holding the only light source in his hand, but he walked very steadily, even though this was his first time using Kyoto's body.

"They finally left." He heard a voice in his ear, with a sighing tone, "They should be leaving Kyoto soon."

"At least they gave you a vase." Shinichi Hirin said helplessly.

Kyoto's voice was a little teasing: "So I still like them very much, as long as they don't stay in Kyoto."

A city will never evict its residents, but if the residents themselves do not consider it their home, there is nothing that can be done.

When he learned about the birth of the Gojo family's Rokugan, he was happy. Every low-probability event seemed to cause a change. At least the birth of the last Rokugan gave him a surprise, so he thought this one would be the same.

The largest yard in the Gojo family is where Rokuyan lives. There is a tung tree growing there, which blooms large purple flowers during the flowering season. Urban consciousness likes beautiful scenery, so he will go there once or twice on a whim during the flowering season.

It was in this environment that the city consciousness and the divine child of the Gojo family met.

"Flower spirit? Are you a flower spirit? How come you are a man? He is very handsome though."

"I will be the head of the Gojo family in the future. They all say so. Lord Wu will lead the Gojo family to the top in the future." This is the child pretending to be old and learning to speak.

"Change? Do you want me to bring about change? There is really no point in staying the same."

"The place that needs the most innovation is, of course, the place right under my feet. You rotten fellow, just lie down in your coffin!"

"Then it's a deal. I'll help you fix your rotten roots!"

When the adult's hand and the child's finger prints came together, something seemed to have touched him. However, he knew very well that the young Rokugan could not remember his encounter with him.

"I know this world is as short-lived as a dewdrop, but, but..."

Shinichi Hinawa was unable to comment on the fact that Kyoto had a deep grudge against Gojo Satoru. A path had led to the deepest part, where there was a small room that looked no different from the other rooms. However, even the Shikigami that Kyoto liked were blocked outside by layers of invisible barriers.

He pushed the door open calmly and walked in. A waitress named Tong Hua was kneeling inside with her eyes closed, obviously waiting for him.

Different from the image he had seen before, the kimono Tong Hua was wearing was extremely gorgeous, with thick black hair spread out, hanging down on the ground, and then connected to the ground.

The floor of the room was not made of traditional wood or tatami, but was like a dark water mirror, rippling little by little with the footsteps of Shinichi Hirin. If you look closely, you will find that Tong Hua's hair is like the roots of a tree, deeply rooted, absorbing nutrients from somewhere.

"This curse spirit is also a special-grade curse spirit. It was not born as long as the previous special-grade curse spirits, but its curse power is more profound. Tong Hua, what do you think?"

The seated Shikigami slowly opened his eyes: "Everything is as you expected, Master."

The matter was resolved surprisingly smoothly. Mikazuki Munechika was much more efficient than the old-fashioned people, and he quickly came up with a perfect cleanup plan for the incident. What was even more amazing was that no bad people jumped out to cause trouble this time. They even had a good impression of the well-mannered Tsukumogami, and they all agreed that Kyoto was the most sensible existence in the city consciousness. They reached a harmonious and unified way of cooperation for the future.

The duo from the technical secondary school who failed to help for the first time were stunned to see Tsukumogami chatting and laughing with the higher-ups. Feeling that it was useless to stay, they found a female classmate of the same period and went back to Gojo's house together. After returning, they told Ieiri Shoko that the manager of the antique shop was actually Kyoto Shiseido. After that, the three of them went to have some snacks together.

After a week of extremely leisurely time, the three of them could no longer hold back and went to find the antique shop and the manager to say goodbye.

"I can't bear to leave the snacks here." Gojo Satoru acted as if he was reluctant to say goodbye.

A female classmate of the same period was not to be outdone: "I can't bear to leave the store manager either."

The only reliable one, Geto Suguru, just wanted to cover his face and drag the two back, even though they were the first ones who couldn't help but want to leave!

The reason is simple. In this era of rapid technological development, the Gojo family is not connected to the Internet!

No one expected that Gojo Satoru, an addicted gamer, could live in the Gojo family without the Internet for more than ten years.

Gojo Satoru: "Actually, I didn't know there were games to play until I was in technical high school."

I won't go into details about this story that will make anyone sad and cry. The fact that Gojo Satoru even forgot that his home has no internet access shows how little he cares about his own family.

Originally they thought that it wasn't a big deal to just connect the Internet cable, but the elders of the Gojo family, whom they hadn't seen for several days, all came out when Gojo Satoru was looking for someone to connect the Internet cable.

He said something like the layout of the Gojo family could not be changed because it would affect the feng shui, and this angered Gojo Satoru so much that he immediately said he wanted to tear down the entire house and rebuild it.

Gojo Satoru is the future head of the Gojo family, so the elders naturally cannot argue with him, but the other two feel uncomfortable being caught in the middle. Considering the same period, the matter eventually came to nothing.

But Gojo Satoru couldn't agree to everyone going back to their own homes during the summer vacation, and immediately suggested taking his classmates to play somewhere else.

Tokyo is where they usually stay, and it has long ceased to be a tourist destination. However, going abroad is basically impossible for sorcerers like them who have to be available at any time.

If we were to ask who knows more about the city of Neon, it would probably be the city itself. So when they were about to say goodbye to Kyoto, Ieiri Shoko specifically asked if Kyoto could recommend any tourist destinations for them.

The handsome young man thought for a while. In his eyes, every city was beautiful, and it was indeed difficult to choose the best one to go to.

After thinking for a long time, he gave a serious answer: "For summer vacation, going to Fuyuki is a good choice."
