Chu Luye stared at the photo in a daze, his expression was rare and a little melancholy.

This expression is rare on her face, even rarer than being shy and blushing. At least Asakawa has never seen such loneliness in this guy.

It seems like I regret something.

"What are you thinking?" he asked without understanding, "This is not like the expression that the arrogant Chuluye would show."

"nothing."

Chuluye didn't want to share his true thoughts with Asikawa. She was the first to lower her head in her heart. How could she give the dog man a chance to laugh at him?

“Can I take a picture away?”

"Okay, just treat it as a gift for visiting my house today. Do you need to sign an autograph?" Asakawa said narcissistic words very casually: "Maybe I will become famous in the future. You can sell a lot of money for a signature photo! Just like Jobs."

"But Jobs is dead."

"Ah... forget it." Asakawa scratched his head and asked, "Which one do you want?"

"Just this one." Chuluye looked at the photo posted on the wall, his eyes fixed on the photo of Akikawa in the fields when he was a child.

The green rice fields are surrounded by busy farming farmers. A seven or eight-year-old child in Torichuan is in the first grade of primary school and is actually helping with farm work.

The side face is quite serious and firm. Although his face is still very tender, his expression does not look like a young child at all.

Other peers either play on the ridges or do their homework at home. Only Asuka works with the adults and can help.

Asakawa took the photo and handed it to Chuluye. Chuluye held a corner of the yellowed photo, looked at the child in the photo, and compared it with the dog man in front of him.

The original three-point similarity slowly spreads in the photos, and she can already be sure that this is Tomorrow River.

The dog man is right. Although his appearance has changed a lot, his heart has not changed.

The eyes are the window of the soul. His talking eyes are so unique from beginning to end, but now they occasionally flash a little blue light, which is quite lively.

"Thank you, I will keep this gift well."

"Do you have a photo of your childhood at home? Give me one as a gift?"

"You didn't see me when I was a kid."

Chuluye gave him a white look. As she got along with Asikawa more and more, it seemed that the plot reached a key point and then revealed the clues. She recalled some things that were originally "forgotten".

"On the day when the accident happened, you were you who I met at the temple fair?"

"What are you referring to?" Asakawa didn't react for a moment, what happened to Chuluno's mouth.

Chukano replied: "I gave me the person who gave Yamazaki 500 yen coins. He also taught Yamazaki how to catch goldfish."

As soon as she reminded her, Asuka remembered it, and he smiled and replied: "You used to be called Sister Yayi."

"So you've seen me so stupid when I was a child." Chuluye still can't understand this paradox: "Why did you see me when you were a child, but then you didn't recognize me? Or did you recognize me so you didn't shoot me at the beach."

"The past is over, and it's useless for you to be confused. Actually, I'm not very clear about it."

Torichuan spread his hands: "But you were really upright when you were a child... tsk, you can't be said to be stupid, you should be cute. When you see someone who is afraid, you will hide your head behind the pile of sand and stick your hips, and you will be a typical person who cares about your head and doesn't care about your butts."

Speaking of this, he felt a little emotional and sad: "It was so good then. The little girl was so cute and cute, but she was not like you now. You and Senior Sister Yayi were completely the opposite. When she was a child, her senior sister was naughty, and after that incident, she became dignified and autistic because of her own blame. You are so afraid of things when she was a child, but when she grew up, she acted like someone dared to mess with me. I cut him off his hand."

"Are you saying that I am not as dignified and elegant as Yamazaki?" Chukano raised his eyebrows: "Then do you like me more or Yamazaki more?"

"Senior Sister Yayi." Asuka was determined.

Chu Luye smiled at the corner of his mouth after hearing this, and it was a little bright.

"You used to refute me and say 'I don't like you at all', and Asuka, you've changed."

Asakawa whispered, "You're calling me a name now? I remember when you were having a meal, you always called me from Kamiya."

Chuluye turned his head and walked out the door: "Let's understand it yourself."

…………

Asakawa did not realize this problem until his grandparents came back. He always felt that Chuluye subconsciously called his surname, and then he didn't expect to be revenge by himself, so he acted as a riddle and frightened him.

But after Chuluye heard this idea, she said goodbye to her grandparents with a spring breeze on her face and shook her face again. Asura Chuan felt that she might have had some profound meaning and was misunderstood by her.

After all, Chuluye is not the kind of girl who is good at turning against the enemy.

That kind of unreasonable girl was her fault, but as she talked, it turned into a boy's fault. In the end, she was angry for two or three days and even forgot why she was angry. She began to turn over the old accounts and scold the boy's fault.

Based on Asagawa's understanding of Chuluye, she is definitely not such a girl.

My mind has always been on the issue of Chuluye's itchy tricking people like a kitten. Asakusa did not notice that they left the entrance of the village. On the slope outside the entrance of the village, a group of gangsters stared at them.

Since getting off the bus in Turtlekicho in the morning, the group has followed Akikawa and the others.

What the bald man did not expect was that the boy who had been telling the boss of the Turtle Dove Society had been hiding in the mountains all day yesterday, but today he actually came to the door and ran to the territory of their Turtle Dove Society.

In addition to naming the elder brother's surname, there are actually organizations named after local names like Jidao organizations, but very few of them.

After all, it is still difficult to unify the area. Fortunately, the turtledo organizations such as Turtleichocho belong to the top of Nara and are loyal to the Yamazaki family in Ise City, so they have received a lot of support.

"Brother, they had lunch at that family. It seems that they were coming back to visit their relatives, right?"

A little brother with yellow hair looked at the second-floor villa with a courtyard, "Then why don't we tie the two old guys up and come to us alone?"

As soon as this sentence was said, the companions around me changed their faces and then looked at the bald head in unison.

The bald man was watching Akikawa's movements with his telescope. He pinched the telescope with one hand and reached in front of his younger brother with the other hand. The two broken fingers on the hand were shocking.

He asked without looking back: "Kaya, you're short when you enter the door. If you ask me some things, I won't tell you, but if they ask, a fight is inevitable."

"But being beaten is better than being beaten by a few fingers." The bald man saw Akigawa and Chuluo stop waiting for the bus at the bus stop sign not far from the entrance of the village, so he took back his telescope, turned his head and looked at the younger brother who had just joined him for a while, and said earnestly: "If I had just entered the road, there would be someone who would be willing to say a few more words to me. If I beat me, I might be able to keep these two fingers."

No one is stupid. Huangmao used to ask about bald heads that broke their fingers, but bald heads always smiled and said nothing. Today, seeing him talking about this matter so seriously, Huangmao knew that he might have said the wrong thing.

"Brother, I just came here and didn't understand the rules. If you have anything to teach, just say it, I'll listen."

"Kaya, that's why I'm willing to take you. You are young, but you are more sensible than young people. The words "rules" are becoming less and less particular about young people."

The bald man sighed: "I have a wife, I just got married last year. Sota has no parents but has a grandfather to raise. He has a sister who needs money to go to high school. Kazuya will send living expenses to your mother who divorces and abandons you every month. Turtledocho is so big in total. The boss can make everyone on this territory convince him and let our little brothers work hard for him. What is the basis for? It's the rules!"

"Disaster is not as good as family members. Whoever breaks the rules on the territory of Turtlejo Town will be finished. Do you understand? If you tie that kid's relatives, our enemies will tie your parents tomorrow, and everyone will be in trouble the day after tomorrow! Don't think that if you enter the dead end of the road, you will be lawless. In fact, there are more rules and more deadly places that the law cannot control."

The bald man looked at his broken fingers. His voice was not loud but very cold, and he was very harsh: "I broke two fingers, which was equivalent to saving two lives when I was ignorant. Don't even think about the bad rules in the future. After that, after this time, you will be like them next time you talk nonsense, and this is inevitable."

Huangmao was sweating all over and nodded repeatedly, "It's the boss. I'm young and misconsidered. When my brain gets hot, I say the wrong thing. You can take it more."

"But... didn't Tokyo say that he was going to catch that kid's mistress?" Huangmao still didn't understand, so he took advantage of the fact that he had taken his elder brother to explain it clearly and asked at once, "Does there be no rules on their side?"

The bald man couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and his companions around him also laughed disdainfully.

"Tokyo? People in big cities know nothing about the rules! Those people are not considered to be sluts on the road, they are just dogs for rich people."

The bald man shook his head and said, "Although they are all for rich people, they are mad dogs. At least we can still have some dignity with the boss. If you want to compete with the dog for food, I can buy you a ticket to Tokyo."

From the corner of my eyes, I glanced at Asahikawa and Chukuno got into the car. The bald head patted the yellow-haired shoulder: "Kaya, I don't know if these principles are profound or if you break two fingers by yourself. In short, I can lead the way in the future, but what kind of person you are still depends on yourself... I am a rough man, I have removed someone's arms and cut people to death. The reason is not read from books, but it hurts. If you are willing to listen, we will go to Izakaya to have a good chat after the matter is done, but now we have to cut the boy's head first and send it to Ise."

The van stopped behind the dirt slope, and the group got on the bus and caught fire, and followed the bus from afar.

The bus stopped at the junction of Turtleki Town and Sango Town. Asakusawa said that there was a vegetable market here that he often came to buy vegetables when he was a child. There was also a bridge at the end of the vegetable market. The gurgling water passed under the bridge. There were shops at the bridge. The scenery was as beautiful as paintings.

Asakusa and Chuluye described the scene as if it was like the Jiangnan water town in China. Chuluye laughed at him for not even taking a plane, and it seemed that he had really been to China.

And Asichuan just smiled and didn't say anything. He had really seen the gentleness of the Jiangnan water town and the gentleness of the lilac girl.

But I can't say this, no one will understand him.

I bought a lot of fresh tomatoes and cabbage from the vegetable market. Asukao walked up to the stone bridge in his childhood memory with Chuluye with plastic bags full of vegetables.

The three bridge piles support a section of stone bridge that is more than 20 meters long. It is hard to say that it is beautiful. Anyway, Chuluye thinks it is very different from what Akigawa describes.

But Asukawa was very happy because when he saw this bridge, he remembered the days when he and Haruna ran around the bridge.

The beauty of a landscape in memory is never simply expressed in the scenery itself, but intertwined with time and space, falling on those who once watched the scenery with you, and in the laughter and joy.

Once, Haruna accidentally fell from the bridge. Asakuawa did not hesitate at all. When the children of the same age were shocked, he jumped into the river to save Haruna.

After that incident, the Ye Ying family regarded this sensible little boy as his own child and even began to support his daughter's secretly planning bride plan. Later, when they moved to Tokyo, Haruna spent the night at Akikawa's house, the Ye Ying and his wife turned a blind eye.

They have long regarded the son-in-law of Torichuan as a rich man. After all, they have grown up since childhood, so they can rest assured that they have raised their son-in-law.

"Would you really be so happy when you go back to this place?" Chuluo and Asikawa leaned against the stone wall beside the bridge, looking at the flowing water under the bridge and asked.

Asakawa had a smile on his face. Chuluye could see that it was different from his previous professional smirk, which was a joy from the bottom of his heart.

"Of course I'm happy. Here is my childhood. Don't you have a place you often play when you were a child and want to go back and take a look?"

Chuluye thought about it carefully, and nodded but finally shook his head.

"That kind of place not only belongs to me, and every time I think back, there is a shadow of an annoying little girl, so my answer is no."

"So stubborn." Asakawa didn't force it, but just smiled helplessly.

"Does there be the kind of jelly that you ate at your grandma's house at noon in that snack shop?"

Chuluye tilted his head and looked at a snack shop across the bridge and asked.

She likes jelly today very much, but this is the first time she has seen the brand. It should be a specialty from Nara. She wants to buy more before returning to the homestay, so she can taste a few if she is greedy on weekdays.

Asakawa followed her eyes and nodded: "It should be there. If I remember correctly that store, it has to be opened for twenty years. I was there before I was born and I used to visit it often. The snacks my grandmother bought are not a rare brand in Turtlebuchi. It is logical that there are snack shops in this area."

Chuluye nodded. She took two steps and found that Asikawa had no intention of following. She turned around and wondered, "Don't you come together?"
