Chiyoko turned over when she heard the doorbell, and went to open the door with sleepy eyes.
It seems that hearing the doorbell to open the door has become the muscle memory of her body, even if the brain is not working, it can be done automatically.
The chairman glanced at Chiyoko, then stood up and sat directly next to Kazuma.
Hema became alert, but he couldn't change positions so blatantly, so he could only stand up and stretch: "Ah, my shoulders are stiff after reciting all night..."
Then he naturally walked to the place where the bamboo knife was placed: "Swing down the sword and move!"
The Chairman did not take any further actions, but began to tidy up the messy books on the table.
He Ma: What the hell is this trick
Just at this time, Chiyoko led Nanjo in.
"Good morning..." Nanjo stopped halfway and looked at the chairman who was clearing the table in surprise.
"Ah, it's Nanjo, good morning," the chairman raised his head and pushed his glasses, "Why are you here so early today?"
Nanjo immediately responded with a smile: "Because I want to go to school with Master. But Jinguji, why did you come here so early?"
"Because I want to urge me to study with my classmate Ma."
Kazuma took the bamboo sword, came to the yard silently, and began to swing the sword under the old cherry tree, with a determined look of dedicating everything to martial arts.
Chiyoko also ran out with a bamboo sword, and began to wave it around Kazuma.
But she whispered to He Ma: "You have to find a way, it will be like a flash."
"what can I do?"
"Choose one and it's over?"
"Do you think it will end if I choose? Unless I ruthlessly drive one of them away and never let her appear in front of me again, otherwise this situation will continue."
Chiyoko thought for a while, and said, "Tsk, it's really troublesome, I don't care."
"Let's concentrate on swinging the sword!"
However, before he finished speaking, he saw Butler Suzuki entering the dojo holding a box.
When Nanjo saw Butler Suzuki come in, he immediately stood up and said to Kazuma who was in the yard: "Master! My grandfather wants me to send some thank you gifts!"
Kazuma, who had just escaped from the dojo, looked helpless.
Chiyoko ducked to the side, making way for Kazuma to return to the dojo.
Kazuma could only bite the bullet and go back to the dojo, facing the sharp eyes of the Chairman and Nanjo.
"Uh, gifts or something, it's not impossible. I didn't help much yesterday..."
Butler Suzuki said: "No, you contributed a lot last night, please accept it."
Nanjo directly opened the box and took out the contents one by one.
"This is the 'knife room' that my grandfather picked out from his collection." The first gift Nanjo took out looked like a roll of silk, but after unfolding it turned out to be a long bag containing knives.
He Ma glanced at the knife holder placed in front of the poster of Song Shengzi in the corner.
Bizen Osafune was lying quietly on the knife rest, covered with a burlap bag.
When Japanese knives are usually displayed, they will be put in a bag without a protective cabinet. This bag is called "knife room".
It is often seen in movies that knives are placed directly on the knife holder. That is because the sword warriors in the movies often pick it up and use it, not collectibles.
It is wrong to put the knife directly on the knife holder without using the knife like in those anti-Japanese dramas in the previous life.
The famous knives in the collection must be protected in the knife room.
The more famous the knife, the more exquisite the knife room.
The cloth bag that Nanjo unfolded was extremely delicate, and the sharp-eyed Kazuma saw the name of the craftsman who made it and a very small family crest on the opening of the bag.
This is the case in Japan. This "signature" can directly increase the value of this cloth bag.
Although He Ma didn't know who the master of this signature was.
Anyway, it must be famous, otherwise the Nanjo family might not have collected this knife room.
Kazuma took a look at the Bizen Osafune wrapped in a canvas bag, and thought it was a good gift, so he accepted it.
"Then I'll accept it bluntly." Kazuma said and stretched out his hand to take the gift from Nanjo.
The texture of the fabric reminded Kazuma of Nanjo's lap pillow last night.
To be honest, it's quite cool to be picked out by a beautiful girl.
While Kazuma was recalling the good times of last night, Nanjo took out another hanging scroll from the box.
"My grandfather heard that you actually hung a poster of Matsu Seiko behind the knife holder, so he picked a pair of calligraphy and painting for you..." Nanjo said, stood up, and carefully unfolded the calligraphy and painting.
Nanjo itself is relatively tall, but when unfolding the calligraphy and painting, in order to fully present the painting, he still had to raise his hands over his shoulders.
The painting is of clouds and cranes, and the accompanying poem is Liu Yuxi's "When a crane floats above the clouds in a clear sky, the poetic sentiment will be drawn to the blue sky".
He Ma feels that he has no appreciation for art, he just thinks this painting is really beautiful, and the poem is one of He Ma's favorite poems about autumn.
He was about to accept the hanging scroll when he suddenly felt something and turned to look in the direction of the knife rest.
He couldn't tell what he felt, maybe it was an illusion.
However, he personally didn't want to accept too many gifts from Nanjo's family, otherwise, if he didn't choose Nanjo in the future, he would owe him too much favor.
So he said to the horse: "There is no need for this, my knife seems to like Song Shengzi quite a lot."
Nanjo was startled: "Huh? Uh... this..."
She probably didn't expect that He Ma would use such an excuse to refuse.
The chairman suddenly interrupted: "Well, I also think it likes Song Shengzi."
Look at the Chairman with Ma and Nanjo.
The chairman explained calmly: "It feels like I'm particularly sensitive to supernatural things."
Nanjo hesitated to speak, and finally put away the hanging scroll: "Okay, then I will repay grandpa like this. Then, without further ado, let's go to school."
Chiyoko had just slipped back from the outside at this time, and upon hearing what Nanjo said, she exclaimed, "No? What a big box!"
Kazuma: "Chiyoko!"
Chiyoko closed her mouth, looked at Kazuma and covered her mouth with her hands.
Chairman: "Student Nanjo has a car, you can go first, don't wait for us."
"I'm going on foot today." Nanjo responded with a smile.
At this time, Chiyoko thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "Miss Nanjo, didn't you... drop out of school?"
"Yes." Nanjo nodded, and then dropped the bombshell calmly, "Because the school's files have been transferred out, so I simply enrolled in Beige's High School."
The Kiryu brothers and sisters exclaimed together: "What?"
"Because the school uniform hasn't been finished yet, I'm still going through Sichuan women's school uniform today. Oh, maybe the girls in the class will be cold-blooded and violent because of the school uniform. Master, please help me."
He Ma: "Ah... oh."
Chairman: "Don't worry, I'll help you, no problem."
He Ma thought: No, you are the biggest problem!
Then Kazuma noticed that Chiyoko was gloating and suppressing a smile.
— Gan, if you laugh again, I'll bounce your forehead until you die!
