Chapter 186: Rainy Night in Tokyo (Part 1)
In spring, flowers bloom, and when it comes to flowers, what Meng Huo wants to see is cherry blossoms.
This is not his favorite flower, but it is very worth watching. The flowering period of the cherry blossoms is very short, and it just happened to meet time again. Meng Huo believes that going to the Far East will be a pleasant journey.
After several hours of flight, he helped Li Qin, who was a little airsick, step onto the land of Tokyo.
The airport's radio prompts passengers in three languages, in addition to Chinese and English, there is also extreme Eastern language - it is similar to Japanese in the previous life, and Meng Huo is not surprised at all about this phenomenon.
He made up for historical knowledge on the plane. Before modern times, communication between the Far East and the mainland was limited by the limitations of navigation technology, and it developed a unique local culture.
This phenomenon also occurs in mainland China. There are differences in cultures in different places, and local languages are even more diverse. The east is just more prominent. However, no matter what culture and language it is, it is developed from traditional Chinese culture and will never leave its roots.
Meng Huo was also wondering why Jidong belonged to China for thousands of years without leaving. He looked through more information and came to a conclusion speechlessly - because Jidong was too weak.
This place was a wilderness in ancient times. There were few people and poor people. Even if you had the heart to get out of China, you could not do it. The central Chinese area of China was too vast. Whenever civil strife occurred in the extreme east, it could send troops nearby to solve the problem in minutes.
In modern times, China has developed even stronger. The three-system royal power it established has pushed the country to its peak. While the navigation and aviation are developing rapidly, the distance between the world has been rapidly narrowed, and the extreme east region has become closer to China than ever before.
After reading these materials, Meng Huo's concept has changed. He can no longer treat Jidong with the view of Japan. Jidong and China here have no grudges. The communication between the two places is also very close.
At Tokyo Airport, the one who greets Meng Huo and Li Qin is a woman in her thirties. She is not beautiful, but her temperament is very gentle, which makes people easily feel trust.
"I am Keiko Yoshida, and I welcome both of you to Tokyo." The woman greeted them in standard Chinese. She was the tour guide Alice found for Meng Huo, and asked for a great price. But her reputation was quite good.
"Hello." Meng Huo nodded to her, then looked at Li Qin: "My mother is a little sick, can you take us to rest first?"
"No problem, please...I have booked a room for both of you."
Yoshida Keiko stepped forward to help Li Qin, then led them out of the airport. As soon as she got out of the airport, the taxi took the initiative to park on the side of the road, and the driver got out of the car and opened the door.
Meng Huo saw from the details that Yoshida Keiko was a professional tour guide. The car was obviously ready in advance, and she kept holding Li Qin. There was no slight impatientness.
Although it's a bit expensive, this tour guide is very good.
The taxi drove to the city. Meng Huo looked outside the car curiously. The first impression that Tokyo gave him was clean. The streets were untainted and he didn't even see a piece of waste paper along the way. Although the streets in Ninghai were clean, they were still a little worse than here.
Then the second impression is novelty. The flowers, plants and trees on both sides of the street are different from those on Ninghai. Occasionally, you can see blooming cherry blossom trees. Although they pass by, they are impressive.
"That... may I ask..."
Just as Meng Huo was observing the outside with great enthusiasm, Yoshida Keiko, who had been comforting Li Qin's attention, looked over and asked softly.
"Meng Jun, are you... Teacher He Xi?"
Yoshida Keiko's question surprised Meng Huo. Alice probably didn't tell her identity. How could this tour guide know who he is? With doubts, Meng Huo nodded.
"It's you!" Yoshida Keiko's eyes lit up: "When I saw the photo, I kept wondering if it was you. I didn't expect you to come to Jidong. It was really unexpected."
"Do you know me?"
Meng Huo was even more surprised.
"Of course I know you, I have read your "Five Centimeters in Seconds" by Teacher!"
Yoshida Keiko smiled and explained that Phoenix's influence in Jidong is very small, but "Five Centimeters in Second" is an exception. This manga depicts a large number of cherry blossoms has many followers in Jidong. In fact, "Five Centimeters in Second" can exceed 10 million sales, and readers in Jidong District make a great contribution.
He Xi's fan group has even been established here.
"Sakura season has arrived recently. Your fans have a very active cherry blossom group. They often team up to draw cherry blossoms in the park." Yoshida Keiko smiled on her face: "My daughter is one of them. If Teacher He Xi is free, she can meet our fans in Jidong."
Meng Huo was a little surprised that there were his fans in the Far East District. One of the reasons why he chose Far East was because of the distance, so he should be able to rest here. Unexpectedly, the first person he came into contact with recognized him.
"I'll go if I have time..."
Meng Huo was embarrassed to refuse, so he could only use a perfunctory answer. He planned to play in Jidong for three days and go to several cities. He didn't have time to meet fans.
However, things often develop less than people wish. Shortly after Meng Huo settled in the hotel, it started to rain heavily.
It was normal for the spring rain, and Meng Huo didn't care too much. He just postponed the arrangement, but he didn't expect that the heavy rain would get heavier and heavier, and it turned into a heavy rain, and the day didn't end...
Meng Huo's trip to Tokyo was ruined, and he was trapped in a hotel.
Li Qin returned to normal after a long rest. She looked at the heavy rain outside and felt helpless: "What should I do now? You finally came out to play once, but in this way, you encountered this kind of weather."
"Madam, don't worry, this rain will stop tomorrow." Yoshida Keiko comforted: "You can stay in Jidong for a few more days. Teacher He Xi finally came here once, and he can't return home in disappointment. I won't charge the tour guide fee for these days."
She was very polite. She didn't charge any fees if she failed to fulfill her responsibilities as a tour guide when it rained. But Meng Huo didn't care about this little money. He just felt that it was too boring and didn't know what to do when he stayed in the hotel.
"Where is a bookstore nearby? I'll go out to buy a few books and come back..."
When the rain was a little bit slow, Meng Huo decided to go out for a walk. He asked for the address and the bookstore was not far away. Yoshida Keiko wanted to accompany him, but he felt that Li Qin needed someone to accompany him more, so he kept the tour guide.
Meng Huo bought a few books in the bookstore with an umbrella and soon returned to the hotel. There was a cherry blossom tree at the entrance of the hotel. He looked at it curiously under the tree.
This scene made the girl who walked out of the taxi see, and her heartbeats faster.
In her eyes, this young man standing under the cherry blossom tree with an umbrella, he was very quiet and handsome, just the scene that made her most heart-wrenching.
However, this may be the result of self-beautification - the girl who saw this picture was a bit special.
When Meng Huo turned around and wanted to continue returning to the hotel, he found the girl, and his steps stopped and his eyes even glared at the boss.
"Chen Jie, why are you here!"
The girl is Chen Jie. She still has bloodshots of staying up late in her eyes, and she only has a shoulder bag on her body, but her expression looks surprised and gorgeous when she looks at Meng Huo... These are not the key points, the key points are-
"Alice, why did you send her here!"
After sending Chen Jie to the hotel to settle down, Meng Huo found an opportunity to dial out with the phone. He didn't have to think about who the culprit was, only Alice knew his whereabouts.
"Shen Jie wants to see you, I told her the address. Is there any problem?"
Alice's answer was very calm.
"What's the problem? You don't know her..." Meng Huo talked about him and Shen Jie with a big head.
"Oh, so that's it... there are a lot of interesting things happening to you!" Alice's voice was filled with a clear smile, but she quickly coughed and took it off and said, "Meng Huo, this is your fault. You directly refuse when someone confesses. As long as it is a girl, no matter how strong she looks, she will feel uneasy."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's very simple, don't be afraid of Chen Jie." Alice smiled and said, "Say I love you, I promise she will become gentle like water."
"Where are you teasing me?"
Meng Huo didn't believe it, and he couldn't do it.
"Then change the method, you can hug her. The child is now fragile. In fact, as long as you express it, she will definitely be as obedient as a cat." (To be continued...)
