Chapter 358
"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Nako asked with a blink of an eye and pressing her ear close to her.
"I don't know what's wrong with it, but since the beginning, it stopped like this."
When she saw her appearance clearly, Taki raised his eyebrows.
The name that came to his mouth was swallowed back when he was about to say it.
He began to talk to the girl in a gentle voice.
However, this kind of tenderness is different from the tenderness to familiar people, and it is more like... the feeling of the tour guide when leading tourists to familiarize themselves with things in unfamiliar areas.
In fact, she is not a local or a native of this country.
In this village, I often encounter many tourists from overseas who switch back and forth in multiple languages.
Such advantages have made Takiichi often point out solutions to tourists who encounter difficulties in the village, and it has become a situation that will not surprise him easily.
Speaking of which, it is really hard to encounter something like seeing a passing person on the way up the mountain and asking them to come down to help repair the car, unless you call and send a message for help.
"I'll take a look."
Handing the orange cat in his arms to Nako, Takichi squatted down and looked at the girl's motorcycle engine part.
While talking to each other, I learned that she was from South Korea and came to Kyoto with her parents. I borrowed a motorcycle from the next car in the hotel early this morning and rode here by navigation.
Speaking of which, a foreign girl who is unfamiliar with the local area can be so bold that even after hearing Nako's self-report with a embarrassed expression, she showed a very surprised look.
"Since that's the case, Takiichi-chan, please help him take a look."
"Leave it to me."
Since the little lamb that Nako sent him on strike a long time ago, he has now been able to completely remove the threads and clean the car, and reassemble it.
Therefore, this simple preparation and diagnosis will inexplicably bring a "trustworthy" touch to others when his eyes become serious.
While starting to check the motorcycle, the owner of the motorcycle asked him in a very cute voice, "Can't it work?".
Of course, she was asking about the motorcycle.
"Well~How do you say it..."
Takiichi wiped the dirty and oil stains on the surface of the engine with a tissue, put it out of his fingertips and carefully checked "The lifespan of the spark plug has reached its limit, and it looks like a second-hand product."
She admitted frankly, "This is a car rental from the shop next to the hotel where I stayed. Because it is very expensive, I have to rush back as soon as possible, otherwise my parents will also worry."
"Then have you turned off the fire when you accelerate?" Takiichi asked again.
"...It seems that it has been extinguished..." She thought for a while before answering.
And when she said such words, her expression was very weak, as if she was afraid that Takichi would scold her because of this.
In fact, Takiichi first knew her identity, but even so, he chose not to call out the other party's name directly.
"The only way to solve this problem is to replace the spark plug. If you have a phone call from the owner of the car dealer, I suggest you call him to explain the situation, but in this way, you still need to pay for it yourself. You are really a bit unlucky."
"Ah? Why do you treat me like this?"
After hearing this, she immediately changed into a grievance expression. She squatted down and hugged her legs alone, burying her head alone, as if she was about to cry afterwards.
"This kind of car can allow you to ride all the way from the bustling areas of Kyoto to this end, which is already the limit."
Takiichi wanted to continue to tell her the cruelty of reality. He spoke in a 100% gentle tone, but Nako kept shaking her head at him.
"But I don't have so much money on me. If I replace the spark plug, it's very expensive, right?"
"It's already more than the rent you pay for the car." Slapping the soft cushion of the motorcycle, Takiichi retreated step by step under Nako's unbearable eyes, so he pondered for a moment and said.
“If you can be willing to stay here for a little longer, I’ll take my friend to the station.
Then push your motorcycle back to my home. My warehouse has some spare parts that may make the car come alive.”
"Hey? Is it really OK? Would it be particularly troublesome?"
On the one hand, she was surprised by Takiichi's willingness to help, but her natural vigilance as a girl made her shudder her head and said she didn't need it.
But from a realistic perspective, Takiichi's current method is the most effective and direct solution to her confusion.
When the two emotions were combined, her face began to flush and looked very troubled.
"Don't worry, Takiichi-chan is great, he's very good at fixing these."
Nako noticed her concern and began to hold her hand to comfort her, then asked.
"I don't know yet, what's your name..."
"Shin Yoona... This is my name, I am 12 years old this year." The girl blinked her big and lively eyes, as if she was unwilling to leave Takiichi's face. "I am from Suwon City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and I am very grateful for your help."
The trajectory of fate seemed to gradually shift at some time, but Takichi had never had a clear concept in his mind as much as he knew.
But... when he met Huang Lizhi, he sincerely hoped that this girl who suddenly broke into his unscathed life, like a stone splashing layers of water on his heart, could survive smoothly and live healthily in this beautiful world.
Shin Yona's appearance made Takichi gradually realize it.
Perhaps, it is difficult for his life to revolve around Sakura again, which completely separates many people who intersect with their own lives.
It is precisely because of this that I started dreaming after breaking up. The first time I dreamed in my life was to see a girl who was not Sakura.
This made him feel both panicked and clearly realized that it was difficult for him to calm down.
There are some moments of strong hope that the girl in the dream is a real entity that exists in the world.
It is precisely because of this that when he discovered that he could meet Kim Jisoo in Mishan Kimura, SANA and Shin Yoona, and Huang Lizhi in Tokyo, he began to try to convince himself with this assumption.
All along, a part of Takiichi's heart really hopes that he can move forward for himself.
“If you feel embarrassed, I can drive you to transport this little sheep to Tokyo.
In short, accepting help from strangers is something you have to face next. It is difficult to fix the car alone and ride it back to Kyoto smoothly..."
He watched Shin Yoona gradually pouting, and suddenly smiled.
"However, compared to those, I won't charge you for labor."
Park Jin-young was still staying in Kaga House. When he went out for a morning jog, he saw his exclusive car from the parking lot.
When he sees Shin Yoona, he may be moved.
Let this girl walk along the life she should have experienced, and a kind of envious color filled Takiichi's clear eyes.
However, it is difficult to achieve this now if you quickly decide on the future.
In the end, Shin Yoona temporarily pushed the little lamb to the only convenience store in the village.
