Tokyo: The life of a literary giant begins with home self-defense!

Chapter 81 Master

Chapter 81 Master
At five or six in the morning, Ryukawa Toru and Takeda Takako walked out of the door under the gritted gaze of Takeda Akane.

The Izu Peninsula is located in the southern part of Shizuoka Prefecture. From Yamanashi, you must first take a train to Shizuoka Prefecture and then transfer to the Izu Kyuko Line.

In Japan's 20th year of the Heisei era, the Shinkansen was not yet popular.

Generally, the Shinkansen is only available from Tokyo. Ryukawa Toru carried a wooden rattan box and boarded the train to Shizuoka Prefecture with Mrs. Takeda.

The train emitted milky white mist and ran among the pine forests and snowfields.

Longchuan Che is a boring person. He picked up a book and started reading as soon as he got on the car.

Takeda Takako felt a little bored and gently kicked the other person with her booted foot.

"what happened?"

Longchuan Che glanced at the other person slightly.

My wife is wearing a long cotton coat today.

white.

The delicate soft flesh is wrapped in an off-white sweater, and the plump and fleshy thighs are tucked into blue jeans.

She was wearing light-colored clothes, and with the snow-white scenery outside, it seemed that even the spaces between her toes were clean.

"Do you think I look like the leaf in your novel?"

Takeda Takako opened the window and pretended to stick her head out.

Longchuan Che thought she was a fool.

"Why is it that my daughter's IQ has dropped now that she's not around?"

Longchuan Che used his fingers to wipe away the white mist on his wife's cheek by the window.

It is daytime now.

There is no flowing night at the bottom of the mirror, but in the distance, various trees are running behind, and there is faint sunlight in the winter day.

It gives people a rare good mood in this winter.

The train was full of travelers who were visiting relatives during the New Year. An old man sitting opposite Longchuan Che heard the two men discussing snow and novels and gave them a strange look.

"What's the matter, sir?"

The old man had a handsome face and his silver hair was combed meticulously.

When looking at people, he always looks at them straight and openly.

Takako Takeda touched her face, wondering if she had disturbed Toru Ryukawa by chatting with him.

"That sentence you just read was very beautiful."

The old man's voice was a little hoarse, and he pointed at Mrs. Takeda who was sitting by the window.

"The morning sun splashed on the white linen crepe that was exposed to the thick snow. I didn't know whether it was the snow or the crepe that was dyed a beautiful red.

When I think of this scene, I feel as if all the filth of summer has been swept away, and I feel as if I have been exposed to the sun, and my body and mind have become refreshed. "

Mrs. Takeda just used this sentence to describe her feelings. This is a short sentence from "Snow Country".

Many words and sentences in this novel are beautiful when taken individually.

"Thank you."

Takako Takeda blushed. She did not say that this sentence was written by Ryukawa Toru next to her. Mrs. Takeda actually enjoyed being praised for her literary talent.

The old man got on the train from Kanagawa Prefecture midway.

It is always easy to get excited when chatting on the journey.

Takako Takeda took out a few oranges and placed one or two cakes on the table.

I started chatting with the old man opposite.

"You live in Hakone, the hot springs there are also famous."

Gotomi Hakone Izu.

It forms a beautiful landscape of central Japan.

The characteristic of these places is that they all surround Mount Fuji.

No matter where you are, you can see the majestic Immortal Mountain.

"Peel me an orange."

Ryukawa Toru was not a chatty person. He interrupted Takeda Takako's chat and pointed to the oranges on the table.

The Little Cold has passed and the weather is a little colder than usual. The oranges are placed near a heater and are slightly warming up. Longchuan Che unceremoniously instructs his wife to peel them for her.

"Who are you two?"

The boy's instructions were very suggestive, and it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this.

Japan has a strong sense of seniority and inferiority.

At this time, the old man was looking at the young Ryukawa Toru, and also at Takeda Takako who was obviously older than him.

Ryukawa Toru has a handsome appearance, and Takeda Takako looks slightly soft and charming.

Couple?

Not like.

Mother and son? Even more impossible.

Seeing Takeda Takako peeling the orange obediently, the old man also gave up the possibility that they were siblings.

"I am her master and she is my maid." Long Chuan Che said to the other party with a smile.

The old man was wearing a kimono with a coat on the outside.

A man in his fifties or sixties went out alone carrying a suitcase.

Longchuan Che saw a pocket watch in his pocket. It looked very familiar. It was a prize for a literary award.

Today's literary world.

Everyone followed Miyagi in refuting Ryukawa Toru's new work.

Ryukawa Toru had no problem joking with the other party, not to mention that Mrs. Takeda was indeed his maid.

The kind that you have to call in person at night.

"A young master of an old noble family?"

In Japanese, "laoye" actually also means head of the family, official, etc.

The old man seemed to be very disgusted with this old-fashioned privilege system. He frowned and almost asked Takeda Takako if she needed help.

"The Takeda family?"

Ryukawa Toru looked at Takeda Takako with a smile.

This woman always likes to mention the name of the Takeda family.

The Takeda family was once considered a first-class military noble family and a vassal of Kai during the Warring States Period.

"Furinzan, Tiger of Kai?"

The old man nodded first, then shook his head.

"That was during the Warring States period. It's better for young people to rely more on themselves."

Although she was talking about Ryukawa Toru, Takeda Takako picked her toes awkwardly.

She is the only one who likes to talk about Takeda Shingen all the time, while Ryukawa Toru, the descendant of the Five Lords, just writes and reads books honestly every day.

I kind of want to punch Longchuan Che who is deliberately making trouble, but I'm afraid that he will deal with me tonight.

Mrs. Takeda gritted her teeth and finally snorted coldly.

What's wrong with the Warring States Period? I'm also a descendant of the Wu family.

The train goes all the way south, and when you arrive in Shizuoka Prefecture, you get off and walk towards the island.

When the old man got off the train, there was a special car waiting there. Hearing that Ryukawa Toru and his friends were also going to the Yumotokan Hotel in Izu, the old man kindly took them with him.

"The roads are slippery due to the snow, so let's go together." The old man nodded to Longchuan Che and the others, and after getting in the car, he signaled to the driver to help them with their luggage.

If the old man didn't want to have only one box, Mrs. Takeda and Toru Ryukawa would have two wicker boxes and one bag.

He looked like he was going to take everything he could.

"This person doesn't seem to be simple."

Handing the wooden rattan box to the driver in a felt suit, Takeda Takako moved closer to Ryukawa Toru.

The driver spoke politely, calling me teacher all the time.

The old man just nodded and shook his head at most and didn't say anything at all.

She has a very good temperament and it's obvious that she is used to being served like this.

"Did you see that pocket watch?"

Longchuan Che pointed to the old man's pocket.

In the winter sun, the pocket watch chain emits a faint silver light.

The patterns on it are old and have an elegant temperament.

Mrs. Takeda looked at it carefully, but couldn't think of any luxury brand that had this pocket watch.
