Dimensional Chat Room

Chapter 27 Megumi Kato

"Gone?"

Qiong opened his clear eyes, obviously not expecting such a bizarre situation to occur.

"Is the little snake just now the god here?"

All things have spirits. This is the basic teaching of Shinto, the largest native religion in Japan, and it is also a widely circulated saying among the people.

Ye You shook his head, he didn't know either.

However, the so-called "gods" in this country are actually not much different from "monsters". Their judgment depends on whether their attributes are good or evil.

After all, it is said that there are ‘eight million gods’ here.

Now that Ye You has stepped into the realm of non-consciousness, there is naturally no sense of awe. He stepped forward and rummaged through the gift box, and searched for the wooden legs in the dilapidated attic, but there was no trace of the little snake.

If possible, Ye You would like to study it carefully.

But now I can only tell Neet Ji and Seventeen about the situation to see if I can get any information from them.

The small episode in the middle did not disturb the interest of the two of them. Qiong had already seen magic and was accustomed to these strange events.

She soon forgot about the little snake. After all, the object she was praying for was only her own mind, not a specific existence.

The quiet shrine with no one around, the cold air makes the mind clear. Looking down from the steps under the torii gate, through the layers of tree-like black shadows, you can see the bright lights embedded in the black surface, which are the city lights that last all night.

The countdown to the New Year has begun and the cheers of the city can be heard even here.

The sound of celebration turned into a torrent, rushing in all directions on this sticky cold night.

Ye You and Qiong were sitting on the steps of the shrine, side by side, just looking quietly towards the brightly lit city.

Boom, boom, boom...

After the ten bells ringing to welcome the New Year, the gorgeous fireworks rush into the night and turn into gorgeous colorful flowers.

Watching the fireworks blooming in the sky, Qiong's little hand unconsciously grasped Ye You, palms clasped together and fingers interlocked, like two hearts that were constantly getting closer to each other.

When he returned, Qiong could no longer walk, so Ye You carried his sister all the way down the mountain.

At the same time, in the dilapidated eaves of the shrine, a small snake with light green light can be vaguely seen. It has soft curves and delicate head corners. The little green snake eyes kept staring at the direction Ye You and Qiong were leaving, as if they wanted to put their figures in their minds.

...

After the New Year, it is also customary to visit relatives here.

Relatives who have not seen each other for a long time will gather together on this day.

But this doesn't have to be the case for the two brothers and sisters who depend on each other for life.

Their parents were both only children. Although they did have relatives, they were not related by blood for several generations, and they had little contact with each other.

However, there is also an elder called 'aunt'. Although the relationship is far away, she is currently the guardian of Ye You and Qiong. At that person's strong request, Ye You and Qiong called her sister.

But she also has her own worries. When relatives get together during the Chinese New Year, life-long events will inevitably be discussed. The person now might be sitting in front of the kotatsu with a sad look on his face, listening to the chatter of his elders in annoyance, or he might be hiding in his room alone and drinking heavily.

So Ye You made a phone call,

"Happy New Year, Sister Jing."

"Ah...um...it's Xiaoyu, happy new year."

There was a buzzing sound over there, and he probably hadn't woken up yet.

"It's already ten o'clock. Sister Jing must have drunk too much last night."

"Ah~~You don't know how annoying those old guys are, insisting on dragging me on a blind date. Is it so difficult to find a good man now?"

"Sister Jing's requirements are too high. How about Sister Jing come to Tokyo to relax? She might get moldy if she stays in Chiba."

"You want to talk about the house transfer procedures. The real estate agent is not working during the Chinese New Year. I will go there in a while."

Ye You was not embarrassed when her worries were revealed, "That kind of thing is fine no matter what. I just feel that I haven't seen Sister Jing for a long time, and suddenly I miss you very much, and Qiong also cares about you very much."

"You kid, you're really good at talking. Many girls have already fallen for you."

Imp? Judging simply from Sister Jing's age, she is indeed a brat.

But Ye You would never dare to say such words. One of the taboo rules for chatting with Sister Jing: no mention of age-related topics.

Although judging from the total age she has lived, Ye You seems to be older than the Sister Jing she calls her.

"That's not the case."

"But you are really heroic. Eight million is not a small amount. Is the money enough now? It doesn't matter if you starve to death. Don't bring Qiong to suffer with you."

"Don't worry, there is no problem with the budget. After all, I am also a popular light novelist who has won the first newcomer award. Coupled with the original savings, Sister Jing doesn't have to worry at all."

"Huh? Worry. I'm not worried. For now, I'll hang up." He hung up the phone very simply and probably went to catch up on his sleep.

Ding ding.

As soon as I put down the phone, the doorbell rang.

Ye You went to open the door.

What appeared in front of Ye You was a pretty girl. She was wearing a white jumpsuit and a beautiful red coat. She looked very clean and pure.

The girl had a sailor hat on her shoulder-length hair. When she saw Ye You opening the door, she walked into the room naturally. She took off her outdoor shoes and said, "Excuse me."

Ye You is also accustomed to her actions. No matter what she does, she will give people the feeling of "that's probably it".

"Kato? Are you here today? Aren't you at home with your relatives?"

"I came here because I felt bored. Are you there?"

The visitor was none other than Megumi Kato, who had made an appointment with Qiong to hold a study session in the last few days of this holiday years ago.

"Qiong is in the room."

Kato was already sitting on the sofa. When he saw Ye You preparing to make tea, he said, "I want mustard tea."

"Did you go to Aoba Shrine on New Year's Day night?" Kato asked, holding a tea cup.

It turns out that shrine is called Qingyu.

She probably heard the news from Qiong.

Ye You nodded, then went to the room to call Qiong out.

After a while, the three of them gathered around the stove, Qiong and Kato both immersed themselves in writing something in salsa.

Ye Youxian was bored. He held his hand and looked at it for a while. No one was chatting in the chat room, so he logged into the website of this world and browsed around casually.

He saw a post on a national student exchange website. The avatar of the person who posted the post was a crystal snowflake, and no ID was displayed.

The man asked:

[Anonymous: What do you do when there is an insurmountable mountain blocking your way forward in life? 】

There are already several answers below, all to the general idea of, of course, turning it over.

Ye You thought for a while, and the person who posted the message probably encountered some huge difficulties, or there were people around him who were too good and were constantly being compared.

So back to:

[Blue Sky Demon King: That is to climb another mountain higher than this one. 】

At that time, what used to be called high mountains became flat land.
