Pei Zi Yun stood on the steps and watched as the corpses dried up and turned to ash. The wooden blade became darker and darker, and the patterns on it became more beautiful.
"Yamada-kun."
Pei Zi Yun turned around and saw Ban Higashi Yuanko walking out. She was talking to Eiko, "Eiko, organize a rescue team."
Pei Zi Yun looked at her and said, "Yuanko, why did you come out? It might not be safe now."
"There are no more enemies."
"Fifty years of life, compared to the sky, it is but a small thing. Everything is like a dream."
Ban Higashi Yuanko sighed and looked at the rain. She stretched out her hand, "Blood and fire, rain and night, it's just like the day before Lord Nobunaga died."
Pei Zi Yun did not speak. In this world, the Great General of Shinkawa fought from the north to the west. When he reached Oda Nobunaga, he ordered Oda Nobunaga to surrender. Nobunaga led 3000 men in a night attack. It was raining at that time, and they attacked the Great General's camp.
Oda Nobunaga sang this song and was stabbed to death by several spears. His official rank stopped at the fifth position.
In this world, it was an insignificant name. Only people like Ban Higashi Yuanko, who were familiar with history at home, would remember it.
"Life is once, and death is imminent."
Ban Higashi Yuanko continued singing softly. She looked at the night sky and suddenly said, "Actually, I was born at 11.17. After 11.17, I will be 16."
"And it's already 11.01."
She gathered her courage and told him her biggest secret. Her long eyelashes drooped down and turned into a layer of shadow.
"I like your book, I … like you!"
She did not finish her sentence. Pei Zi Yun looked at her and said, "Bend down."
"… Eh?" Ban Higashi Yuanko looked at him in a daze. She bent down and Pei Zi Yun moved closer. She seemed to have understood and opened her mouth slightly.
But her expectation was disappointed, and a kiss landed on her forehead.
Pei Zi Yun then stood up and said, "Since everything is settled, I shall go down the mountain. You don't have to send me off, I will walk back slowly."
As he said this, Pei Zi Yun held the wooden blade in his hand and turned it around. He walked into the rain.
"Do you think it's too fast?" Ban Higashi Genko wanted to call her back, but she did not make a sound. After a long time, she lowered her head and said, "But I don't have time."
It wasn't that she didn't understand her own psychology. In fact, in her spare time, she had also seen classic cases of male tutors and female students.
Psychologically, this was the psychology of empathy that arose from a closed environment.
An ignorant young girl would spend most of her time in an enclosed mansion or a girls' school. Her teacher was the only way she could see the whole world, as well as the only man she could come into contact with.
He was the light, the world. The girl had no choice but to fall in love with him.
His current situation was similar, but what was forcing him was only time.
His time was too short, and he was getting closer every second. Under such circumstances, even if he repeatedly prepared himself mentally, he still couldn't bear it.
So she fell in love with him, the man who saved her — although he was only 12 years old.
"How fragile." Sakato Genko laughed at herself as her hands drooped down powerlessly. She closed her long eyelashes and waited for her fate.
11: 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17.
She sank into the darkness.
West End Hotel
Two girls were lying on the huge bed in the room.
One of them was petite and laid on the bed. Her mouth was still chewing and drooling, as though she was having a sweet dream. It was Kuwako.
The other person was Hayakawa Naomi. She was wearing pink pajamas with a picture of a cat doll on it. She lay flat on the bed, her eyelashes fluttering and her eyes half open. It was obvious that she had just woken up.
It was the middle of summer, and the weather was scorching hot. Even in Hokkaido, the highest temperature was 30 degrees Celsius. Hayakawa Naomi seemed to be very afraid of the heat.
Fortunately, the West End Hotel arranged by the Sakato Financial Group was a high class hotel. It was well-equipped, and the rooms were air-conditioned. The temperature was comfortable, and Hayakawa Naomi had a good night's sleep.
This time, the arrangement of the West End Hotel was as follows. The two girls from the club, Kuwako and Hayakawa Naomi shared a room, while Pei Zi Yun had his own room. The other three members of the club shared a room.
There were a total of five rooms.
Hayakawa Naomi, who had woken up, lay on the bed for a minute before sitting up and preparing to get up.
Kuwako was covered with a thin blanket, and was fast asleep.
Hayakawa Naomi looked at the sleeping Kuwako and thought to herself, 'At times like this, Kuwako is quite cute when she doesn't speak.'
It seemed like Hayakawa Naomi's movements were too sudden. Just as she was about to leave, Kuwako woke up as well.
Kuwako looked at Hayakawa Naomi with sleepy eyes and rubbed her eyes with her little hands. "Huh? Hayakawa, why are you up so early? "
"Kuwako-chan. The seafood yesterday was delicious, and everyone was very happy. That's why I spoke to the chef of the West End Hotel." Hayakawa Naomi ran her fingers through her hair and turned to Kuwako, "I told the chef that I want to learn how to cook seafood today."
"If that's the case, I can cook seafood for Kuwako and the department head." Hayakawa Naomi smiled as she said this.
Now that she was feeling happy, she wanted to live like this for the rest of her life!
"Eh, that's possible?" Hearing this, Kuwako was puzzled. She was no longer sleepy and asked, "This is the chef's own cooking. He won't teach it to others, right?"
"Yes, I also felt that it was too impulsive at that time!" Hayakawa Naomi said shyly, "But I didn't expect that the hotel would agree to my request after some consideration."
Speaking of this, Hayakawa Naomi was a little surprised, but she felt lucky. "So, although I don't know why the hotel would agree to my request, it's a rare opportunity. I have to learn."
Kuwako's gaze fell on Hayakawa Naomi. After a moment of silence, she asked suspiciously, "Hayakawa, is it because he saved you that you are working so hard?"
"Yes!" Hayakawa Naomi had always felt that Kuwako was precocious. She didn't want to lie to her, so she thought for a while and answered with certainty, "What about you, Kuwako-chan?"
"I have to protect Mom!"
"And I have to fight alongside Onisan!" As Cuozi spoke, she was no longer sleepy. She got up from the bed and raised her little fist with a determined look on her face.
…
The morning in Hokkaido was chilly. The kitchen of Xio Hotel was on the first floor. It was very big, but at five in the morning, many people were already busy. Sometimes, the boss would come to help.
Hayakawa Naomi walked into the kitchen and saw that the boss was there. She greeted her and bowed. "Xipura-san, how are you?"
The Lady Boss of the Nishio Hotel was called Natsumi Nishiura. She looked like a very gentle woman. She wore a light colored kimono and had a soft figure. She often had a smile on her face, causing everyone who came to the hotel to have a good impression of her.
The boss returned the greeting and said politely, "Hayakawa-san, why are you up so early? You can sleep a little longer. "
"It's just the preparation of the ingredients."
"The preparation of the ingredients is also very important. I hope to learn the whole process. Please."
The boss teased, "Is it for someone?"
"Yes." Hayakawa Naomi looked at the ingredients in front of her, her eyes filled with happiness. "I don't need him to whisper sweet nothings to me. I just want him to eat the food I make!"
"I don't need to watch a concert or go shopping in Ginza. I just want him to walk with me on the streets." Hayakawa Naomi said and fell into her imagination.
"Mom said that we must strive for our own happiness. There are many regrets in life, but we should try not to leave regrets because of our own laziness."
Hearing this, the boss was silent for a while and said sadly, "You're right."
If only she had the same courage back then. Then, the two of them worked together in silence.
Hayakawa Naomi was helping the hotel today. At the same time, the hotel staff would teach her how to make delicious seafood. While working with Hayakawa Naomi, Natsumi Nishiura explained the process of making breakfast, as well as the key points to take note of when making seafood.
Natsumi Nishiura cut off the head of the prawn and said to Hayakawa, "Naomi, I'm going to teach you a simple and classic seafood recipe, how to make delicious seafood noodles!"
"You should know that seafood noodles are one of the three signature dishes of our hotel. The reason why we make seafood noodles is so delicious is mainly because of the following two reasons."
When Hayakawa Naomi heard what the boss said, she immediately listened carefully. This was because the seafood noodles in this hotel were indeed very delicious.
Yesterday, because Tetsuyama Shinta ate the seafood noodles from this hotel, he went all out, saying that he wanted to make up for the loss of food on the ship. He ate three big bowls in one go, and in the end, he even said that he wanted to pack a bowl for supper.
At that time, if it weren't for Kuwako and Hayakawa Naomi seeing Shinta Haruyama's exaggerated behavior and stopped him, he might have really done it.
However, seeing Shinta Haruyama's exaggerated behavior, Hayakawa Naomi also tried it and found that the seafood noodles in this hotel were indeed delicious.
Natsumi Nishiura said, "When we make seafood noodles, first of all, the steps are very clear. Put all the seafood ingredients in the pot and cook for 6 to 7 minutes. When it's done, take out all the seafood ingredients, keep the seafood soup, add the right amount of water, and cook the noodles in the pot.
This step may seem simple, but if you don't do it first, it will affect the taste of the noodles. "
"Of course, there are some things to take note of. If you do it alone, you must pay attention to it." Natsumi Nishiura reminded Hayakawa Naomi.
"That is, when preparing the seafood, if it's prawns, you can use cooked prawns, frozen prawns, or fresh prawns, but you must remove the head prawns."
"If there are crab fillets in the seafood, because the crab fillets are easy to overcook, you must remember to take them out immediately." Natsumi Nishiura pointed at the crab fillets and said.
"Also, you can use fresh clams, so the seafood noodles will be more beautiful."
"Most importantly, after cooking the seafood soup, add some water, or else the fishy smell will be too strong!" Natsumi Nishiura told Hayakawa Naomi seriously and personally demonstrated.
"As for the ingredients, I'll read them to you now. If you can't remember them, you can copy them later."
"The cooking time is more than 6 hours."
The chefs looked at all of this in surprise. Natsumi Nishiura's teaching seemed simple, but she did not hold back at all. Even their own daughters could not do this, right?
Was it because of her beauty?
Or was it because she was a guest of honor at Banto?
At this point, someone came in from outside and reported to the boss. When Natsumi Nishiura heard this, her expression changed. She turned to Hayakawa Naomi and said, "Hayakawa-san, I have something to do. I'll go out and take a look. You stay here and try cooking."
"Yes!" Hayakawa Naomi acknowledged. She was currently immersed in learning how to cook better food, and did not notice the expression on the boss's face. She continued cooking.
After some time, the boss's wife, Natsumi Nishiura, came in again.
She looked the same as before, her face full of smiles, as though nothing had happened. Only her slightly swollen eyes showed signs of pain. She said to Hayakawa Naomi, "Good news, Yamada-kun is back, and says he wants to eat your food. Come with me!"
"Ah, is that true?" Hayakawa Naomi was overjoyed. She did not ask why he had not returned, but nodded her head, "Yes, yes, it will be ready soon. Please wait for a while!"
"Let me finish up the last few things!" Hayakawa Naomi placed the food on a plate and hurriedly brought it over with Natsumi Nishiura. They then saw Pei Zi Yun, who had just taken a bath and changed into a kimono.
"Yamada-kun." The two of them bowed and brought the food in.
The restaurant's bowls were black with red flowers on them. It was an elegant color, and was filled with soup. She remembered Pei Zi Yun's taste, and added a thick layer of meat.
The noodles were long and glossy, and smooth.
Pei Zi Yun took a bite and smacked his lips. He could not help but exclaim, "It's so fragrant and smooth. Naomi, your cooking skills are so good that you can be a chef."
"You're too kind." Hayakawa Naomi shook her head. Her cooking skills were still lacking. However, seeing that Pei Zi Yun was satisfied, she was elated. That's great, Yamada-kun is very satisfied.
Hayakawa Naomi's food was indeed very much to Pei Zi Yun's taste buds. Most importantly, he had been fighting all night, and felt that it was too troublesome.
Seeing Pei Zi Yun gobbling down the food, Hayakawa Naomi served him another plate. Her heart was filled with joy.
The lady boss, Natsumi Nishiura, watched as Hayakawa Naomi lowered her head and showed her snow-white neck. Even she was moved by the sight.
Truth be told, Natsumi Nishiura had never seen such a beautiful girl before. She was afraid that even her mistress would pale in comparison to her. She then thought of the blood stained clothes she had just cleaned up and sighed, 'Ai, it's a pity that the person you like is a samurai.'
'The path of a samurai is filled with hardships. It's rare for a samurai's love to be excessive.' Natsumi Nishiura thought of the news she had just received. Her heart sank and she almost cried.
A samurai would die if he was generous. How much love did he have left for women?
She was so angry. She had already lost all hope and married someone else. Why did her heart still hurt so much when she heard the news?
