Chapter 39 The Straw Man

Seeing Misaki complaining, she was really cute. Xiao Liu smiled and told the story about the online comics. Naturally, all she got was amazed. Misaki was very smart since she was a child. When others worked hard to build a snowman, she had already built a spectacular castle with snow. A huge and unusual monster, very realistic, like a work of art, and it is hard to believe that this can be done by a child.

Misaki, who has grown up, has amazing ability to move. She has outstanding talents, strong personality, lively and cuteness. In fact, this can make many boys amazed. Even if there is no malice, she inevitably has such an emotion in her subconscious mind. She will not rely on others, as long as she is enough. No one else is as smart as her. After all, I am a genius, a rare genius.

However, since she met Koriya, especially these days, Misaki inevitably felt a sense of looking up. Unlike Shiina Mashiro's natural daze, she still had these feelings.

"Little Liujun, he is really amazing." Misaki said quietly.

"Yes." Xiao Liu nodded indifferently.

"This online comic is so powerful, I'm afraid that a comic editor will come to negotiate soon, so that you can work with the painter as the original work and publish the comic, right?" Misaki said.

"This should be there, but I don't know when it will come out." Xiao Liu said.

Zhenbai next to him did not participate in the conversation between the two. Seeing the delicious food on the table, her eyes were lit up and she couldn't wait to enjoy it. When she heard this topic, she couldn't calmly ask: "Do you have any comics? If you look for a painter, wouldn't I be the case?"

"That's true, but although that comic is a bit interesting, it's still a lot different from the one you're painting now. If you want to draw that book with both, it will probably affect the quality of the book now, and it will not be worth the cost. Besides, this is my hand-training work, and you don't have to draw it out the irrelevant things." Xiao Liu thought for a while and said.

"Oh~! Is that true?" Zhenbai nodded, as if he accepted this reason.

"Yes." Xiao Liu nodded, tied a napkin, took out a knife and fork, and cut a plate of French steak in front of him and ate it.

There were a lot of dishes on the table, but the amount was not much. Xiao Liu had a large appetite. Xiao Liu, who was growing, had a lot of food for a person, and Misaki and Mahara. Ordering so much should be enough.

After finishing the meal and paying the bill, Xiao Liu and the other two began to walk towards Qing Xuanju.

At this moment, I happened to meet Hitoshi Kazuki who was walking with his puppy and was about to go back.

Hitoshi Kamijo, twelve years old this year, a fifth-grade student in elementary school, looks very likable, a standard kawaii little loli. He has big eyes, and his flat bangs cover his eyebrows. He looks a little quiet, but with these eyes, he looks a little cunning.

She is Xiaoliu's neighbor. She has met her before and helped her find the missing dog, so she has a good impression of Xiaoliu.

At this time, Kamijo Hitoshi seemed not to notice Xiao Liu, and was jumping in front of him, very happy and in a good mood.

"Xiaotong~~!" Misaki shouted and immediately picked up Kazukitong from behind.

"Wow!" Kamijo Hitomi screamed in surprise, and found that it was Misaki, and immediately struggled: "Let me open, Sister Misaki!"

"You should call me sister!" Misaki said with a timid look.

"I won't scream!" Shangjo Tong said with a pout, turned his head, saw Xiao Liu, and hurriedly said, "Brother Xiao Liu, save me quickly~!"

"Okay, I'll save you." Xiaoliu walked over, and Hitomi Kamijo broke free from Misaki's arms and jumped into Xiaoliu's arms.

Holding Shangzhaotong's small body, she felt as if nothing was missing. Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Do you take your dog for a walk? You are really a sensible child."

"Well, Xiaotong is of course sensible. Brother, have you brought me a gift?" Shang Tsuka Tong said with his eyes lit up.

For the cute Hitoshi Katsuki, Xiaoliu would give some small gifts every time, but this time she went out for dinner, so naturally there was nothing to give.

After touching his pocket, Xiao Liu was about to refuse, but suddenly smiled and said, "Of course there is!"

Gift... It's so good, I want a gift too... Shiina Mashiro, who was a little naturally stupid, thought subconsciously.

"Wow! What is it, what is it, let me see it." Shangjo Tong's eyes shone and he said in surprise.

Xiao Liu took out the things in her pocket and handed them over.

"Huh - what is this?" She took Xiao Liu's small note and seemed to be wrapped in hard things. Even if it was not torn apart, she knew that this was probably a disposable toothpick in the restaurant. There was only one toothpick in a small paper bag.

Looking at the toothpicks handed over by Xiaoliu... Misaki and Mashiraja were both stunned. What the hell is too much? Are you embarrassed to give such things?

"Oh~! I don't need this kind of thing." Hitomi Kamijo said with some disappointment, saying that he didn't need it, but in fact he didn't like it. After all, how could a child like a... toothpick?

Xiao Liu shook her head and said, "Xiaotong, have you heard a story?"

"What story?" asked Hitomi Kamijo.

"The story of a rich man named Straw." Xiao Liu said with a smile.

"The rich man of straw? I haven't heard of it." Hitomi Kamijo shook his head.

Xiao Liu said: "It's a very simple story, this story is like this..."

"A poor child lives a poor life and dreams of a day. He dreams that Guanyin wants to bless him. After he wakes up, he happily rushed out of the door. But he fell down and found that he was holding a straw in his hand. Is this Guanyin's reward? He thought."

"At this time, a gadfly flew by his side. He grabbed the gadfly, tied it to one end of the straw, and tied it to a wooden stick to play with his hands. At this time, a carriage of rich families passed by. A young man in the car saw the poor child and said, "I want that toy." So the poor child gave it to him, and the rich gave him three oranges. The poor child walked with the orange and met a pregnant lady. She was very thirsty, so the child gave her the orange and she gave her three cloths. Suddenly a general ran over on a horse. The horse fainted suddenly, and the general left the entourage to deal with the matter. The entourage thought the horse was dead, so the child walked up and exchanged two cloths for the horse. Then he drank some water for the horse, and the horse woke up. Then the child exchanged some horse materials and a meal for the remaining cloth, and stayed at a farmhouse for one night."

"The next day, the child was riding on the road and passed by a farm. The farmer ran over and said that there was an urgent matter and borrowed his horse. He asked him to take care of the farm. If he didn't come back, the farm would belong to the child."

"The farmer really never returns once he goes. When his children have a farm, their lives gradually become rich and rich. Because he became rich because of a straw, people call him "straw rich". After he had a wife and children, he often went to Guanyin Temple to worship to thank the Bodhisattva."

Xiaoliu is very good at telling stories, which is very vivid. Not only is Hitomi Kaedo listening carefully, but Misaki and Mashirata next to him are also listening carefully. This story is a very classic fairy tale in Japan.

After listening, Shangjotong said with his eyes shining: "Okay, so awesome!"

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Now, the toothpick in your hand is the straw I gave you. Use it to exchange for what you want!"

"Yes! I understand! Thank you Brother Xiao Liu! Brother Xiao Liu is so good!" Kamijo Hitomi said happily and excitedly, and jumped home.

"Little Liujun...he really can fool children. It's so scary." Misaki couldn't help but say.

"Um... um." Mabashi was still a little envious of the toothpick just now. He finally reacted as Misaki said and nodded in agreement.

"What is fooling? This is life enlightenment. Do you understand?" Xiao Liu gave them a blank look and said naturally.

at this time……

Gao happily returned to Katsuki Hitomi at home, thinking about who needed a toothpick?

When passing by the living room, Xiao Hitomi's father, Taro Katsuki, suddenly asked, "Rei, where is the toothpick?"

Xiaotong's mother shouted in the kitchen: "Look at the cabinet by yourself!"

"Oh~~How can I find this?" Kamijo Taro complained.

When Hitomi Kamijo heard this, his eyes lit up. He walked over and handed the toothpick to Taro Kamijo: "Dad, give it to you."

"Oh? Xiaotong is so good. She is really worthy of being my baby daughter." Taro Kanejo said with a smile.

Xiaotong looked at Taro Katsuki dryly. Seeing that he had not responded for a long time, he said, "You want to give me something too!"

"Ah?" Taro Katsujo was stunned for a moment, took out a five hundred yen coin, handed it to Hitomi Katsujo, and said, "For you."

"Um!"

Then, the result of the surprise of Hitoshi Shangzhe was 500 yen coins, and excitedly ran out to buy the latest Haagen-Dazs and ate it.

"Oh?" Shangjo Hitomi finally realized after finishing eating: "Oh, ah, ah, no more, eaten... I, I'm so useless, I can clearly become a rich man! Oh, next time..."
