Chapter 173 So, I should thank him?
Outside the gate of Kiyomizu-dera Temple, inside a beverage shop.
Yuji Horii sat by the window, ordered a cup of green tea, and occasionally checked his phone to confirm his daughter's location.
Seeing the two of them walking around inside Kiyomizu Temple, I temporarily put my worries aside.
On the opposite side, Koike Mikan was chatting with Horii Yuji while flipping through her phone.
Out of professional habit, she would often pay attention to the latest hot topics on the Internet to train her new people to learn how to package themselves using hot topics.
When she saw the currently popular topic of beautiful monks on the Internet, she clicked on it and saw a video that was clearly recorded outside the main gate of Kiyomizu Temple.
The beautiful monk in the video did not show his entire face, and most of the shots were from his side.
After looking at him for a while, she felt that this beautiful monk looked a bit like the Master Liansheng from Tokyo?
"Alas, my daughter is good in every way except that she just fell in love with that monk."
After checking the location of his phone, Horii Yuji put it down and took the initiative to bring up the topic.
"Those monks who inherited family temples are now popular targets in the marriage market. Besides, they have an ascetic temperament, so it's normal for girls to like them." Koike Miahori answered naturally.
"Yes, I don't have any prejudice against monks. In fact, I admire him from the bottom of my heart and recognize his abilities. It's just..."
"Are you talking about the Master Liansheng?" Koike Mikan looked up at Horii Yuji.
"Who else could it be but him?"
Speaking of Hiramiya Chiya, Horii Yuji was a little irritated, "If he was just an ordinary monk who inherited the family temple, I wouldn't be so worried, but he is Master Rensheng!"
There was a deep look in Koike Mikan's eyes, and she seemed to understand what Horii Yuji was worried about.
"Master Liansheng, he is determined to become a Buddhist. He may never marry or have children in his life. Lingyin falls in love with him. This relationship is doomed to fail and be painful. I just don't want to see my daughter sad."
"You think too much."
Koike Mihan put down her phone, shook her head and said, "Suzin is a very opinionated girl. If you can see it, how can she not see it?"
“……” Horii Yuji always felt that he was offended.
"Liking someone is a strong emotion that is difficult to control."
Koike Miho looked at Horii Yuji who was still frowning, sighed in her heart, and said, "Suzune is now at the best age of her life. It's normal and good to like an excellent person."
"Studies have shown that when you like an outstanding person, in order to get closer to that person, you will also be influenced by that person's good qualities and gradually become outstanding."
Horii Yuji opened his mouth but didn't say anything in rebuttal.
"Besides." Koike Mikan knocked on the table to attract Horii Yuji's distracted attention.
"Wouldn't it be better if this relationship didn't work out?"
"It will allow Lingyin to experience the taste of young love and gradually mature, but she won't actually be kidnapped."
"Isn't this the best outcome for you?"
Horii Yuji was stunned for a long time. This made so much sense!
From this perspective, it is definitely much better for Lingyin to fall in love with Master Liansheng than to fall in love with some yellow-haired gangster riding a will-o'-the-wisp!
"So, I also have to thank Master Liansheng?"
Seeing Horii Yuji's inability to change his mind, Koike Miho couldn't help but laugh, "Yes, you can go to Weilian Ancient Temple to burn incense and donate some money when you have the chance."
"..."
Yuji Horii always felt that something was wrong. That monk rejected his daughter and made his precious daughter cry. Instead of settling the score with him, he should thank him?
After a moment's silence, Horii Yuji picked up his phone again to check the location of his daughter and Koike Chinatsu.
Miyuki Koike on the other side also picked up her phone again and saw a clarification video slandering the monk Mei.
In this video, it can be clearly seen that the beautiful monk is Master Padmasambhava.
And the girl who slapped the woman twice was Horii Suzune!
And his daughter, Chinatsu Koike, was also there, even waving her fists to cheer.
The three of them met at Kiyomizu Temple?
Miho Koike secretly glanced at Yuji Horii opposite her, thought about it and still said nothing.
"Look, the two of them have already wandered to Otowa Falls."
Horii Yuji smiled and handed the phone to Koike Mikan for a look.
You, just be happy.
Koike Miaki still didn't speak, but remained silent with a smile.
……
The clear spring produced by Otowa Falls is known as the first of the ten famous springs in Japan, and the name of Kiyomizu Temple also comes from this.
"I heard that the spring water here is divided into three parts, representing longevity, wisdom, and health. Anyone who can take a sip can receive the corresponding blessing."
Koike Chinatsu was explaining things excitedly. She was so considerate that she deliberately kept some distance between Hiramiya Chiya and Horii Suzune so that the two of them could be alone together like a couple.
"Do you think this legend is true or false, Mr. Hiramiya?" "False."
Hiramiya Chiya mercilessly shattered the little fantasies in Horii Suzune and Koike Chinatsu.
"It is possible to change from a man to a woman, or from a woman to a man by drinking a sip of spring water." Pinggong Qianye said naturally.
"..."
Horii Suzune and Koike Chinatsu looked at each other, what kind of evil spring water is this!
But if you think about it carefully, it's still a bit exciting.
Just as the three of them stopped to chat, the monks from Kiyomizu Temple, who had been observing for a long time not far away, finally came over.
He walked up to Pinggong Qianye and saluted with his hands clasped together, "Excuse me, is this Master Liansheng?"
Pinggong Qianye nodded and chatted with the monks for a while, and then the monks left first.
"Since you have something to do, just go and deal with it first." Horii Suzune said with a smile, carrying her light yellow handbag.
"Let's go shopping for a while longer. We'll go after we're done."
"it is good."
Horii Suzune had no opinion on this, only Koike Chinatsu pouted her lips in displeasure.
The three of them strolled along the tourist road of Kiyomizu Temple for about 20 minutes, and then Horii Suzune was considerate enough to take Koike Chinatsu away, ending this trip.
Before leaving, Horii Suzune smiled and said, "Hiramiya-san, I will be looking forward to the travel gift you choose."
"..."
Pinggong Qianye sighed slightly. In the end, he still had to give gifts. It was really a headache.
Wait until you are about to leave Kyoto to choose one, and buy one for Ruyi and Takeda Saburo as well. It is not easy for them to guard the temple.
Hiramiya Chiye took out his cell phone and looked through the messages that Hiramiya Hiraya Shuichi had sent him previously.
This information not only records the residential address of the woman who slandered him, but also clearly explains who hired her and who hired Internet trolls to spread rumors and defame him.
What a talent! He is more useful than the entire police station.
Pinggong Qianye couldn't help but think of the arson and bombing incidents at his own temple, which still had no concrete results.
After sending a message to Pinggu Shuichi, Pinggu Chiye followed the nearby mountain path and entered the depths of the dense forest when no one was paying attention.
Before meeting the Daqian Guangming netizens, he wanted to find out the mastermind behind the smear campaign against him.
This won't take long.
……
I slandered a monk today.
Will this be retribution?
Sasaki returned to her rented apartment and sat on the sofa in the living room, feeling inexplicably uneasy with the extra income totaling 1000 million yen.
She began to regret that she should not have slandered a monk who had no grudge against her for the sake of the money.
But, this is a full 1000 million yen!
She could easily get this money just by acting and slandering a young monk... She thought that if she had refused at that time, she would regret her choice now.
There is no medicine for regret in the world. After taking this money, I will leave Kyoto tomorrow and go to a smaller city to live.
Sasaki made up her mind and slumped back on the sofa, placing the 1000 million yen on her thighs, pressing her hands tightly against it and closing her eyes slightly.
Without her noticing, two little spiders slid along the corner of the wall and into the gap between the sofa and the wall behind it.
One of the little spiders crawled out from the gap and climbed onto her shoulder.
He moved closer to her exposed neck and bit it.
Sasaki subconsciously patted the place where she was bitten to relieve the itchy feeling.
Another little spider stared at Sasaki's figure with a faint light in its eyes.
After a while, Sasaki stood up from the sofa and walked towards the rooftop outside. There was a building more than ten stories high below.
She reached out and climbed onto the railing, facing the ground, ready to jump down.
no, do not want!
Sasaki watched this scene in horror and tried desperately to stop it, but her body simply did not obey her will.
At this moment, she seemed to be controlled by some ghost, committing suicide against her will.
no, do not want!
She doesn't want to die yet. She just got 1000 million yen and her life has just begun!
But no matter how she tried to stop it, her body was out of her control.
Is this the retribution for slandering monks?
Sasaki couldn't help but think sadly.
