Chapter 118: Chase at Qingshui Temple(1/2)
In this world, what should be seen will naturally be seen.
What you shouldn't see will naturally not be seen.
Before, Misumi was still at the Death Research Institute in Musashino City, and would come to Tokyo from time to time due to work reasons. In fact, Misumi had passed Kitahara several times at the subway station or on the street in Shinjuku.
However, fate is such a joke. After passing by each other several times, the two failed to meet in advance. But it happened that in Kyoto, which was far apart, the fate of these two people had a strange overlap.
Misumi stood on the stone bridge under the pagoda and turned around. It was obvious that the man was dressed in a very ordinary way, an ordinary work shirt, but at this moment he caught Misumi's eyes.
中. In the bustling crowd of tourists in front of me, for some reason, my eyes saw this back figure at this moment.
Misumi was in a daze for a moment.
She didn't know if God wanted to trick her on purpose.
I don’t know if it’s because I still thought of him when I woke up in the hotel in the morning.
So much so that I also had hallucinations at this moment.
Why do they have to be so similar?
Misumi opened her mouth slightly, and she couldn't help being surprised. Because the back view just now looked so much like Kitahara. Of course Misumi would never forget that back view. When she was in college, she would definitely be in the medical department during the 9:30 evening class.
The figure waiting for him in the corridor outside.
Could it be him?
How can it be?
He must be working on a big case in Tokyo at this time.
However, despite thinking this way, Misumi took steps by mistake. Once her stubborn character became serious, she had to confirm it clearly.
This is Kiyomizu Temple, a place where lovers pray for blessings in Eastern legends, and a cave of happiness where the gods respond to mortal feelings. Here, anything can happen. At this moment, Misumi chose to believe in the wonderful fate.
Obviously, as a medical student, she should not believe in these rumors, but she believed it in this second.
Even if it wasn't him, I still wanted to confirm.
What if it's really him?
The midday sun shines over the famous three-story pagoda of Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The tile eaves above reflect the light like gold foil, making the entire pagoda shine. This simple pagoda seems to feel the light in front of it.
The impulse welling up in the heart of this female forensic doctor radiated more brilliance.
Misheng quietly squeezed his hands.
If it's really him...
If it was really him...
I don’t know why, but I have a lot to say to Kitahara...
After graduating from the Faculty of Medicine, the people and things I encountered...
My experience studying forensic medicine in Kansai...
The experience of offending a medical professor and being transferred to the Institute of Abnormal Causes of Death...
The painful and tiring things I encountered while working as a forensic doctor...
Smelly Kitahara!
Why am I still scolding you in the morning, but I want to see you at this moment...
Perhaps it was because she was too tired from her usual work, but now she suddenly became too relaxed after coming to Kyoto. This excessive tension caused extremely unusual fluctuations in the psychology of this female forensic doctor.
I am used to seeing many life and death, and all the emotions that have been suppressed by force are poured out at this moment. The human psychology cannot always be sound. There are always a few moments when it is sick and fragile.
, it craves care.
Of course, while the beautiful forensic doctor was immersed in the emotions in her heart, she had completely forgotten that there was a girl with a beautiful face standing next to the back figure. In fact, the girl had been following closely.
Beside him. It's just because Misumi focused too much on this back figure and ignored the woman beside him.
In this way, wanting to confirm something, Misumi started the most daring and crazy action. She wanted to catch up, just to take a look and see if that figure from behind was Kitahara...
…
…
"Wow! Kitahara!"
Miyagawa walked out of the side hall and carefully unfolded the winning lottery ticket in her hand. The moment she saw the words on it, her whole cheek turned red with embarrassment, "Do you know what is written on this lottery?"
?This signature actually says that today you will meet the girl you are destined to be in Kiyomizu Temple."
Miyagawa's hands were shaking slightly with excitement. She felt more and more that the God of Love today must be on her side. The signature said that Kitahara and the destined girl would meet in Kiyomizu Temple.
.Isn’t the girl mentioned in the signature the same one who is accompanying Beihara at this time?
Miyagawa laughed "chuck, chuck, chuck".
Such a signature, just invisibly, also added a bit of ambiguity between himself and Beiyuan.
"Well, very good, not bad, great. Sure enough! It's indeed Miyagawa." At this moment, Kitahara was standing by the stone railing outside the side hall, looking at the tourists in the main hall square, and watching the people around him with extreme vigilance.
He replied to the girl next to him with his all-purpose car-wheel talk.
Oops.
The person I saw just now couldn’t be Mikoto, no! It couldn’t be Misumi.
Why is Misumi here?
Is it possible that I saw it wrong just now?
Isn't it said that forensic medicine is a "7K" job, which is hard and tiring? Why doesn't it become more painful and tiring? How come she still has time to come to Kyoto and wander around?!
However, as soon as he thought this, the figure in the blue windbreaker appeared in front of the main hall again. The facial features and the extremely unique temperament once again proved that the woman in front of him was the forensic doctor Mikoto Misumi.
Misumi also carried a backpack and looked around in the square, like a Nara deer, looking for the delicacies offered by tourists.
【?】
A question mark was the most real feeling in Kithara's heart when he saw this scene. Mikoto, ah! No, it's Misumi. Why does she look like she's looking for someone? In short, her expression seems a little...
It's not normal. She is looking for someone. No matter who she is looking for, as long as she wanders around like this, she is a walking landmine.
Kitahara immediately turned his head and said to Miyagawa, "Let's go! Let's go to the next shrine to worship!"
Miyagawa was suddenly pulled by Kitahara. When he saw that the route he was going to was not what he had planned in advance, he quickly pulled Kitahara back, "No! Kitahara! Today's pilgrimage route must be followed in order, otherwise... otherwise... otherwise
It won’t work. You must follow the order.”
"Listen to me! Let's go!" Kitahara grabbed Miyagawa's wrist and walked forward forcefully.
Turning around, not in the order predetermined by Miyagawa, this young male lawyer seemed to have encountered the most difficult thing in his life. At this moment, he was also running around in Kiyomizu Temple. However, no matter where he went,
Whenever you come out of a shrine or a Buddhist temple, you will always see that dark blue trench coat again. That ex-girlfriend is like a ghost that follows you around, no matter how you shake it off, you can't get rid of it.
.
Beiyuan could already feel his eyelids beating faster and faster.
If you don't leave this place of right and wrong, something big might really happen.
Miyagawa looked at the route of visiting the shrine, which was out of his control. He checked countless guides, stayed up late and read a lot of folklore, and finally compiled the results, which were completely changed beyond recognition. Gradually, gradually, this man
The girl's mood became a little depressed. Why, Beiyuan, did he suddenly stop listening to me?
Really...
Keep wandering around like this again...
I...I'm going to be angry...
At this time, Kitahara had led Miyagawa and was about to reach the position at the back of the mountain. Suddenly, a cold feeling came from behind. Kitahara suddenly felt that his hair stood on end. Then he turned around, but saw the girl in front of him, who was still in a cold state.
A bright smile.
Strange...strange...strange? Where did the killing intent that he felt just now come from? Beihara touched his head.
"Kitahara, let's not wander around anymore, okay." Miyagawa continued to maintain a smile on his face, but for some reason, there was a unique sense of command in his tone.
Beihara's body suddenly stiffened a bit, "Miya... Miyagawa, I think the scenery there is quite beautiful. Why don't we go there and have a look. Haha. Miyagawa today is really kawaii. Come on, let's go together.
Look, hurry up, or there will be more people."
Miyagawa ignored Kitahara's words, but still maintained his smile, pointing his finger slightly forward, "Kitahara, let's go play that, okay?"
Kithara followed the direction Miyagawa pointed and looked over. He saw a small square in front of him. However, on the west and east sides of the square, a black stone was placed respectively. Next to it was a large signboard that read
There are a few big words on it: "The test from the divine stone of love."
On the square, dozens of pairs of men and women were blindfolded. They started from the stones on one side of the square and groped their way forward.
"You know, Kitahara." Miyagawa said with a smile, "The stones on both sides of the square are said to be sacred stones left over from the Jomon period. Legend has it that at Kiyomizu Temple, as long as a man and woman blindfold themselves, they can walk from the square
If you walk to one side, walk to the other side, and successfully touch the stone, then they are a man and a woman who are destined to be together."
"With your eyes covered, this...isn't this good?" Beihara swallowed, "Look, Miyagawa, the ground of this temple is not very flat. If you bump or fall somewhere, it will be bad.
Right?"
To be continued...
