This Japanese Monogatari Isn't Lame

The next day, Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai headed to Narita Airport.

Around lunchtime, after settling their luggage at the check-in counter, Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai quickly passed through security and boarded the plane.

During this time, nothing occurred to worry Beichuan Si, and that lurking gaze around them had completely vanished.

It seems asking Gangye Yoshiko to detain those people from the Mouchi family was effective.

Earlier, he had separately called Four Directions Huixue and the Inari siblings.

Everything was basically quiet on their side, just as usual.

With this information, Beichuan Si set aside his concerns and started chatting with Shen Gu Mirai beside him.

If he must say, it was simply Shen Gu Mirai enthusiastically asking questions followed by Beichuan Si responding with a neutral expression.

In this state, the two-hour flight quickly passed.

"Phew...is this Kagoshima Prefecture?"

Shen Gu Mirai gazed curiously at the surrounding streetscape, her delicate large eyes sparkling with inquisitive charm.

"Indeed, this is Kagoshima Prefecture." Beichuan Si nodded while glancing sideways at the city.

The smooth streets stretched out ahead, the buildings on either side not towering as those in Tokyo.

The houses here are ordinary, low-rise Japanese-style buildings, spreading straight and lacking any monumental structures behind.

Some passersby greeted each other, clearly under a clear sky, yet they all carried umbrellas.

Because the iconic Sakurajima Volcano here is a very active volcano, minor eruptions can occur more than ten times a day, and the umbrellas they carried were precautionary against volcanic ash.

Simply observing, it seemed there was a feeling reminiscent of old Japanese period dramas.

The streets, compared to Tokyo, were also quieter, as if the entire Kagoshima had yet to awaken.

Behind these streets rises the imposing Sakurajima Volcano, but Beichuan Si didn't yet have the desire to admire it.

He quickly dialed Nakajima Hiroto's phone number left to him, requesting someone to come pick him and Shen Gu Mirai up.

Standing in place for about ten minutes, a black business sedan pulled up in front of Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Beichuan and Miss Shen Gu?"

"Yes."

"Ah...that's good, please hurry into the car, Mr. Nakajima has been waiting for you at home for quite some time." The driver courteously stated.

But Beichuan Si didn't rush, he had Magong Yongshi and Shenzhu Shihui subtly sense their surroundings, and only knowing the driver wasn't lying did he get into the car.

After all, this was the territory of that Mouchi family, it was better to be cautious.

According to Beichuan Si's investigation, the Mouchi family and the Nakajima family are two prominent families in Kagoshima Prefecture, these two families not only have wealth but also hold numerous county councilor positions in politics.

However, in terms of time alone, the Nakajima family is later than the Mouchi family, so the foundation of the Nakajima family is not as deep-rooted in Kagoshima Prefecture as the Mouchi family.

After about twenty minutes, the vehicle came to a halt in front of a Japanese-style residence.

In front of the residence, Nakajima Hiroto was waiting with his wife Nakajima Renmei for the two of them.

As soon as Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai got out of the car, Nakajima Hiroto and Nakajima Renmei immediately welcomed them.

"Mr. Beichuan, it's truly been a long time."

Nakajima Hiroto greeted him first.

"Yes, indeed, it's been a long time, Uncle Nakajima."

Beichuan Si nodded, then extended his hand to introduce to Nakajima Hiroto: "This is my fiancée, Shen Gu Mirai."

"Oh?" Nakajima Hiroto curiously turned to scrutinize.

In fact, he had heard about Shen Gu Mirai from Nakajima Michika, but this was his first time meeting her formally.

Facing Nakajima Hiroto's curious gaze, Shen Gu Mirai gracefully took a step back, then, with her hands on her knees, bowed to Nakajima Hiroto and Nakajima Renmei: "Hello, Uncle Nakajima, Aunt Nakajima."

Her manner was confident and casual, amidst their scrutiny, she remained natural and smiling, her pure and endearing face instantly won favor with Nakajima Hiroto and Nakajima Renmei.

Of course, courtesy played a part, but appearance took a larger portion.

After all, this is a world where looks matter.

Being attractive and polite will always be advantageous anywhere.

"Haha...please come in, leave the luggage to the servants, I've already arranged rooms for Mr. Beichuan and Miss Shen Gu,"

Nakajima Hiroto chuckled and invited them.

Faced with Nakajima Hiroto's invitation, Beichuan Si naturally wouldn't refuse.

He followed Nakajima Hiroto and Nakajima Renmei into the residence, eventually reaching the reception room.

After Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai were seated on cushions, Nakajima Renmei then served teacups already filled with tea.

"Please enjoy the tea."

Nakajima Renmei's actions were naturally practiced, exhibiting great elegance; evidently, she had undergone courses on tea serving and flower arrangement before marrying Nakajima Hiroto.

Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai naturally followed their host's gesture, taking a simple sip of tea.

After both of them had taken tea, Nakajima Hiroto began discussing the main topic:

"Mr. Beichuan...and Miss Shen Gu, you've come this time for the ancient mansion complex I discovered, haven't you?"

"Indeed."

"...Is that so..."

Receiving Beichuan Si's response, Nakajima Hiroto couldn't help but bow his head and mutter to himself.
