Chapter 171 Kyoto Date A Live
"Hiramiya-san, where are you now?"
"Kyoto."
"Where in Kyoto?"
"Probably near the Imperial Mausoleum Park."
“Oh, is there a Starbucks nearby?”
"I don't know."
"Where are you going next, Hiramiya-san?"
"We should go to Kiyomizu-dera Temple."
"I see. That's good."
Standing on the side of the road, listening to the voice of Horii ringing on the other end of the phone, Hiramiya Chiye felt a little confused.
Judging from Horii Suzune's tone, she seems to be in Kyoto?
"You are in Kyoto too?"
"Yeah, let's take advantage of the summer vacation to travel and arrive in Kyoto a few days earlier than Hiramiya-san."
It’s really in Kyoto.
Hiramiya Chiye was slightly stunned. He remembered that a few days ago, Horii Suzune had sent him a text message to chat with him, asking him to bring her a travel gift when he passed by Kyoto.
Now, she came by herself.
"Hiramiya-san, I'm just about to visit Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Do you want me to wait for you to come and visit?"
"can."
Hiramiya Chiye did not refuse. It was a rare occasion for them to meet in Kyoto, so if they could go shopping together, he would not have to buy any travel gifts for Horii Suzune.
It’s not that he doesn’t have money to buy gifts, but he really doesn’t know what to buy.
After chatting for a few more sentences, Pinggong Qianye ended the call, put the phone into his bag, and took out the Dharma bowl.
Holding a staff in one hand and a begging bowl in the other, he continued along the street toward Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
There are many temples in Kyoto, including many famous mountains and ancient temples, such as Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Kinkaku-ji Temple, Ginkaku-ji Temple... The Buddhist atmosphere is quite strong.
Walking on the streets, you can often see monks and some ascetics.
It's a very nice place, if it weren't for the blue sky and the huge gray-black whirlpools rising above the clouds.
……
"It's not that fun here. I want to go to Kiyomizu-dera Temple."
Horii Suzune came over from the bathroom after ending a call and sat in the empty seat next to Koike Chinatsu.
Opposite her are Horii Yuji and Koike Mikan.
"Didn't we just visit Kiyomizu Temple yesterday?" Horii Yuji, who was chatting with Koike Miharu, stopped the conversation and looked puzzled.
"I really like the scenery there. I want to go there alone to cleanse my soul." Horii Suzune took a sip of ice cola and said casually.
"No, this is Kyoto, not Tokyo. It's too unsafe for you to travel alone outside." Horii Yuji immediately objected.
"I can go with Sister Suzune. I also like Kiyomizu Temple." Koike Chinatsu said with a smile.
"Nonsense."
Horii Yuji looked displeased and secretly glanced at Koike Mikan who didn't say anything.
"Kiyomizu-dera Temple is indeed a very good temple. It's nice to receive spiritual baptism there." Koike Mikan said with a smile.
"Kyoto is a big city after all. Nothing will happen if we just wander around Kiyomizu-dera Temple."
Horii Suzune looked calm and glanced at Koike Chinatsu who was smiling brightly, "Besides, we two girls always need a little private space of our own."
Horii Yuji frowned slightly and said unhappily, "When we go out for a trip, we still have to take safety into consideration and not act rashly."
"Sister Suzune and I call every hour to let everyone know we're safe," said Chinatsu Koike, raising her little hand.
"No, I have to call at least once every half an hour."
"it is good."
"Your cell phone must have location tracking turned on."
"can."
Horii Suzune nodded in agreement, drank a few sips of the ice cola, and led the excited Koike Chinatsu out of the store, and took a taxi directly to Kiyomizu Temple at the door.
"Children nowadays are increasingly having their own ideas." Horii Yuji sighed.
"It proves that they have started to grow up."
"Yes, but for us as parents, no matter how old a child is, he is still just a child."
"You should learn to believe that Lingyin is a girl with her own opinions and ideas."
After chatting with Koike Mikan for a while, Horii Yuji also walked out of the store and took a taxi to Kiyomizu Temple.
Kiyomizu Temple.
Horii Suzune and Koike Chinatsu got out of the taxi, looked around first, then walked into the temple gate holding Koike Chinatsu's hand.
"Sister Lingyin, I'll just stay in a drink shop inside for a while."
"No, I'm worried about you being alone."
"It's okay. I'm already grown up. I'll be a high school student when I start school in September."
"No."
After being rejected again, Koike Chinatsu hesitated and said, "But I don't want to be a light bulb for Sister Suzune."
She muttered again, "I can't take responsibility for disturbing Sister Suzune's Kyoto Date A Live."
Horii Suzune touched Koike Chinatsu's head and said, "You are the one with the most overthinking little head."
"Is not it?"
Koike Chinatsu looked up at Horii Suzune curiously. The reason why they chose Kyoto for this summer vacation was entirely because of Horii Suzune's suggestion.
Moreover, they had already visited Kiyomizu Temple yesterday, and at that time she happened to see Horii Suzune texting with someone.
Also, our original next destination was to go to Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine to take photos and check in.
The temporary change of itinerary could never be due to such lame excuse as immersing oneself in Buddhist teachings and cleansing one's soul. Only a fool would believe that excuse.
Considering all of this, Horii Suzune must have other reasons for coming to Kyoto this time that she cannot share with others.
This kind of thing done without telling parents is either because of friendship or love.
It’s really easy to guess.
"Don't think so much."
"But……"
"If you like thinking about problems so much, I wouldn't mind buying you a few sets of exercise books as gifts for this trip."
"..."
Koike Chinatsu's eyes widened and she didn't dare to say anything for a moment.
Based on her understanding of Horii Suzune, she would definitely be able to do such a thing.
She would even be praised in front of her mother.
This is absolutely not allowed!
Koike Chinatsu held Horii Suzune's hand tightly, showing an expression that she would follow your lead in everything.
"That's how you behave."
Horii Suzune pinched Koike Chinatsu's cheek and was in a good mood.
After the two walked along the sidewalk of Kiyomizu Temple for a while, Koike Chinatsu couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lingyin, when will the person you are waiting for come?"
"Later."
"Is it a boy or a girl?"
"classmate."
"Hehe, it must be a male classmate." Koike Chinatsu said with a naughty smile: "What does the male classmate who can make Sister Suzune look at him differently and wait here look like?"
"You have already met him."
"Hey, it's that Hiramiya-san!"
Koike Chinatsu's eyes lit up instantly, "My mother has always wanted to thank him for his help."
“He helped a lot of people.”
"Sister Lingyin, it turns out that you like this kind of abstinent boy."
"Can't you?"
Koike Chinatsu was stunned for a while by this frank question.
Then I admired Sister Lingyin even more. She was so independent and cool, even when it came to love.
The two of them wandered aimlessly in Kiyomizu-dera Temple for more than ten minutes. Horii Suzune unlocked her phone again and took a look at the new message.
"Let's go."
"Where is Hiramiya-san?"
"In front of the mountain gate."
The two of them followed the same path they came from and returned to the mountain gate.
At this moment, something seemed to have happened here, and a lot of people gathered here.
Horii Suzune frowned slightly. She had already seen that one of the protagonists of the story was Hiramiya Chiya.
He seemed to be blocked by a woman who was wearing slightly revealing clothes.
Horii Suzune quickened her pace and led Koike Chinatsu to the center of the fenced area.
"Look everyone, this is the monk in front of you. He played tricks on me last night and didn't even pay me!"
"What's even worse is that when I tried to ask him for money, he humiliated me and even threw a Buddhist scripture at me, saying that it was just payment!"
"Everyone, please give me some advice. How can there be such a monk in this world?"
The woman complained with tears and snot.
Just as the crowd around began to sympathize with the woman's situation and wanted to condemn the monk, a crisp and loud applause sounded.
Snapped!
The one who attacked was Horii Suzune.
Pinggong Qianye is a monk, and he has enough self-cultivation to face the slander of this woman, but she doesn't want to endure it.
Not for a moment!
The exposed woman covered her cheek and looked at Horii Suzune in disbelief as she was beating someone up.
Who is this girl?
I don't even know her, why did she slap me?
Snapped!
While she was stunned, Horii Suzune, feeling unsatisfied, slapped her on the other cheek again.
"what!"
The woman was furious and wanted to lose her temper, but she heard Horii Suzune say coldly: "You have committed the crime of defamation by maliciously slandering others' reputation!"
"Moreover, the person you slandered is a highly respected monk. You are adding insult to injury!"
"Didn't you claim that you were a prostitute who was bullied? Then let's call the police right now and see who is the last person in jail!"
"..."
The woman was stunned for a long time, and then met Pinggong Qianye's eyes that seemed to see through everything, and she shuddered with fear.
"I, I, I..."
The woman hesitated for a while, then lowered her head, covered her cheeks, and left in a panic.
