Hema followed Danzi—no, followed the chairman into an old second-hand bookstore in an alley.
As soon as he pushed the door and the horse, he could smell the smell of old books that have been left for a long time.
As far as the eye can see, all the old books are piled up. The interior of the whole second-hand bookstore makes Kazuma feel that he should be able to find Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts textbooks here, and by the way, he can buy a root that can be used to cast Avada and eat big melons. wooden stick.
Chiyoko looked at Kazuma looking around, reached out and tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Brother, don't act so unfamiliar, isn't it just a second-hand bookstore? Although you haven't been here, it's not like this."
"No, I'm looking for the owner's magic pet." He Mapi said.
This kind of bookstore must have a magic pet in charge, so it fits its temperament!
Chiyoko frowned: "What is that? It sounds like something from TRPG."
In Japan in the 1980s, under the influence of the United States, TRPG became popular, that is, tabletop role-playing, commonly known as running groups.
In order to solve the regret that social animals can't run dough all day long because of overtime, fanatical group runners even set up a letter running group.
Some people even started a company to do this, and organized dozens of writers, who were responsible for answering the letters from those running groups, and writing letters to tell players where they are now and what they saw.
After the player writes back their actions, the writers will write the next step and reply to the player.
Kazuma can't understand how this kind of running group that consumes real time for a week per round can continue, but the Japanese can maintain this.
Later, a large number of famous novelists and playwrights were born in this group of writers.
For example, Urobuchi Gen, the warrior of love.
But now it is 1980, this trend should have just begun, I didn't expect Chiyoko to have heard of it.
He Ma asked curiously: "Do you still know TRPG?"
"I have a classmate whose brother came back from studying abroad in the United States, and now every weekend he goes to run a group with the few friends he met in the United States.
"My classmate also complained that now when it's Saturdays at home, she and her mother are left in the three-story house. My father goes to play bridge, and my brother goes to run a group. It's boring..."
He Ma was shocked by the "three-story building".
But after thinking about it, this is Japan, and common sense in many places is reversed.
Chinese people think that living in a villa means being rich and powerful, while ordinary people live in high-rise buildings.
Not in Japan. In Japan, ordinary people live in "one-household buildings", that is, two- or three-story buildings with a single courtyard. Rich people like to live in high-rise apartment buildings.
Chiyoko's classmate may just live in a three-story Yihujian, so Kazuma convinced himself.
He ignores crucial information about studying in the United States and his father playing bridge on Saturdays.
Dandanzi has already walked into the back of the second-hand bookstore, and greeted the store manager: "Grandma Qianyu, I brought you a new customer."
"Really? But what you say will make people misunderstand that this is a bad store." A kind voice came from the innermost part of the store.
Immediately afterwards, a short old woman came out of the door inside the second-hand bookstore lobby with a kettle.
"Oh, what a nice young man, Xiaoyu, you have a good eye."
"This is not a boyfriend, but a comrade-in-arms." Dan Zi pushed his glasses and said so.
The old woman stopped her movements, put down her reading glasses, and looked carefully at the horse and the egg.
"Comrade-in-arms? Is there any new blood to join now? Your theoretical books are over there, and your novels are on this shelf. Oh, by the way, I just got the first edition of the Crab Worker..."
"No, mother-in-law, it's a comrade-in-arms who went to Tokyo University together."
"Ah, so it's this comrade-in-arms." Grandma Qianyu seemed to have lost interest in Kazuma all of a sudden, and she pointed to the bookshelf in the bookstore, "There are all the supplementary books there, and they are classified according to the schools they are taking. Find it yourself."
Granny Asayu turned around, carried the kettle to the innermost recliner in the bookstore, put the kettle on the electric heating pad, and plugged it in.
Then she sat down on the recliner slowly, took out an old book with an unknown language title, opened the yellowed cover, pushed the reading glasses and lowered her head to read.
Danzi directly took Kazuma's hand, dragged him to the bookshelf pointed out by her mother-in-law just now, and found the classification of the University of Tokyo with ease.
"What subjects are you not good at, Kiryu-kun?"
"Uh, Chinese and history." Hema replied, and glanced at Granny Asayu. The old man was concentrating on reading the book in his hand, as if he didn't care about the three people in the store at all.
Hema couldn't help being surprised, thinking that if he ran away with the book in his arms, what would Granny Qiantang do-should he call the police
Danzi: "Chinese and history, I thought Kiryu-san would say that you can't do anything except math and English."
"No, am I such a dish in your eyes?"
After talking with Ma, I found myself talking nonsense: the original owner is the tail of the crane, it is really useless, no one can blame others for thinking so, right
Danzi simply ignored He Ma's complaints, and directly started to draw supplementary books related to Chinese and history from the bookshelf.
"When choosing this kind of old textbook, in addition to confirming the integrity, it is best to look at the traces left by the previous generation of users in it, and it is best to judge whether the notes left by the previous generation are reliable." Egg Zizi shared his experience with Hema while flipping through the book.
At this time, Grandma Qianyu said: "There is no need for that. The teaching aids used by people who really got admitted to Dongda University have already been asked to leave by relatives and friends for various reasons. Most of them are not my turn." The old lady bought it.
"As for the integrity of the books, I'm a professional second-hand bookseller. Before I paid for the purchase, I checked it carefully, and basically there will be no missing pages."
He Ma: "The old lady said so."
"I heard it, but we checked it carefully before we bought it, and found out that there are missing pages. That is our responsibility. We are reducing the work pressure of mother-in-law." Danzi said.
The mother-in-law laughed three times: "So I still want to thank you for taking the responsibility?"
Dandanzi didn't answer, and continued to look for books: "This one is good, let's read this one..."
Granny Qiantang's voice came from inside again: "Young man, let me give you a piece of advice, don't look for this kind of woman, don't look at her as a cute and virtuous woman, and you will have a hard time if you really get married.
"I can tell the old woman at a glance. She is the type who can force her husband to become a talent in a Spartan way."
Chiyoko was bored by the side all the time, and when she heard this, she became energetic: "Really? Brother, I think this is good, it can force you to become a talent."
He Ma could tell that it was a big deal for his younger sister to eat melons, so she just wanted to watch a play, a show of Shura, preferably the kind that would be popular.
With this younger sister around, I must have high martial arts skills, so that I can fight with the girls at the same time, without hurting the girls or letting the girls hurt each other, and I am not dead.
"Grandma Qianyu, I haven't planned to go that far yet," Danzi said.
But Dandanzi's answer terrified Hema Xisi.
I haven't planned that far yet, that is to say, are you really doing planning
"Uh, can I ask where your plan is going?" He Ma asked cautiously.
"Huh? Didn't I say? See you at the Budokan next spring."
Kazuma couldn't help but glance at the entry with a countdown on Dandanzi's head, the content of the entry is See you at the Budokan.
Darling, is the duration of this time-limited entry the duration of her determination
This is terrible, this woman is an Iron Goddess of Mercy—no, Iron Lady!
However, what Ma and Ma need now may be just such perseverance. If you get in touch with Danzi more, you may be able to get a little perseverance buff from her...
But in the current situation, it's not suitable to involve other girls. After all, if you don't pass the exam—no, normally speaking, the chance of failing the exam is much higher than that of passing the exam.
If they fail the exam, all these girls will be in danger.
Jidao is the same as the gangsters in Hong Kong, in order to gain prestige, they will do anything that goes too far.
The so-called "come out to play, talk about shoveling at home, shovel at home."
Uesugi Soichiro, I'm afraid that guy will really hit all the girls hard.
After struggling with the horse for a few seconds, I suddenly figured it out.
—Damn chicken, what am I struggling with? If I really want to avoid affecting other girls, I should pretend that I am not familiar with her when I see Danzi, and tell her to go away.
Now she is pulling my sleeve and running from the supermarket to the second-hand bookstore, and as long as there are jibes who see it on the way, they will think that Danzi is having an affair with me.
Hema had to admit that because he was shaken by Danzi's appearance, he had already dragged her into the water.
Thinking about what should not be involved with the girl now is all bullshit.
There are three girls who have been dragged onto the thief boat.
For the sake of their safety, I must go to the University of Tokyo—if I can't, I have to wipe out the entire Kanto Federation.
This is the responsibility that a man should bear!
Therefore, in order to fulfill this responsibility, the BUFF on Dandanzi's body should be used as much as possible.
"Student Kiryu?" Danzi noticed that Kazuma was distracted, and called out to him, "Did you hear what I just said?"
"No." He Ma reported frankly, "I was distracted from the part of 'See you at the Budokan'."
Chiyoko: "Senior sister, you look so good-looking, my brother was dumbfounded."
"Student Tongyu, I was just asking, how far is your Chinese level now? After the golden week, our school will participate in the national simulation for the first time. What judgment you make may affect the support of teachers in the future."
He Ma scratched his head: "Compared with before, my Chinese language has not improved at all."
Dandan was stunned: "You mean, the bottom one in the class?"
"Ah, yes." He Ma nodded.
Danzi sighed: "Hey, starting tomorrow, I'll help you with tutoring. At least make sure you can pass the simulation."
"Oh, that's right." Man and Ma readily agreed to make full use of the egg, just now. After the promise, they realized that something very bad might happen tomorrow.
So he hurriedly said, "Can you come at night?"
"Well... I'm a girl, if it's too late..."
"I'll take you home." He Ma said without waiting for the other party to finish speaking.
Dandan smiled: "That's fine."
