Kyoto: I just want to be a gentleman

especially...

Kitano Chiaki had already removed the bandages before taking a bath, revealing the bruises and swelling.

She originally thought that her sister Chiharu Kitano would ask her where the wound came from, but it seemed that the other party did not care about these unimportant "little things".

She sighed softly, thinking that Watanabe Hideyuki must have sneaked out by now. If she could just delay her sister for a few more minutes, everything would be fine.

As if to make her behavior seem less weird, Kitano Chiharu said gently: "Chiaki, does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt..."

Faced with her sister's sudden concern, Kitano Chiaki seemed a little caught off guard.

Ever since...that incident, Kitano Chiaki rarely spoke to her in such a gentle tone.

She is a little...flattered now?

Kitano Chiharu pinched the wound of Kitano Chiaki. Although Kitano Chiaki felt a little pain, he clenched his teeth and did not show it.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

Kitano Chiharu increased the strength of her pinch: "Does it hurt?"

"A little."

But as things developed, she soon realized that something was wrong.

Tokyo in winter.

Thick snow piled on the branches of the trees, as if they were works of art carefully crafted by nature. Each branch was hung with crystal snow beads, sparkling with a cool and mysterious light.

The forest air is filled with the salty scent of the sea and the fresh fragrance of pine, which is intertwined with the purity of snowflakes (the scent of shower gel) to form a unique aroma.

(Chapter 102 enters the small black room and is expected to be released at noon.)

Chapter 102 Wardrobe

After resting for a while, she, who had experienced many battles in her dream, regained some strength. She struggled to get up and walked out of the bathtub.

"I'm going upstairs to get something." After changing into the bathrobe on the bathroom shelf, Kitano Chiharu said to Kitano Chiaki who was still slumped in the bathtub.

Kitano Chiaki didn't say anything, but nodded mechanically.

To be honest, her body functions were overloaded today and she could no longer make any movements.

She just wanted to have a good sleep in the bathtub now.

Kitano Chiaki thought so, and she did so. Just when she felt that she might fall asleep at any moment, she suddenly felt her nose itchy, as if someone was waving something in front of her eyes.

"Stop it, sister." Kitano Chiaki raised her hands weakly and splashed around in the bathtub.

But obviously, her words seemed to have no effect, and the man's actions became more and more bold.

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw...

Hideyuki Watanabe!

Her originally groggy mind immediately became clear, and just when the name "Watanabe Hideyuki" was about to come out of her mouth, she bit her tongue in desperation, making a humming sound.

pain.

It hurt so much that she almost cried.

But now she obviously didn't care about the pain. She endured the pain and whispered indistinctly: "You...why haven't you left yet! Didn't I tell you to leave?"

The girl was very angry.

So much so that he was gasping for breath and shaking constantly with the rise and fall of his chest, which was very eye-catching.

Watanabe Hideyuki pointed.

Kitano Chiaki only then realized her current embarrassment.

Before the two of them could say anything else.

The sound of footsteps came slowly from the stairs.

Watanabe Hideyuki left the bathroom in a flash.

Looking at the two identical bedrooms in front of her, he made a bold decision - to hide in Chiharu Kitano's room.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is often the safest place.

Kitano Chiharu would never have thought that he would actually hide here. As long as he left after Kitano Chiharu woke up, everything would be fine.

Moreover, there were also some personal factors that drove him to make this decision.

He wanted to see what Chiharu Kitano's bedroom looked like.

Of course, these ideas were only thought of after Watanabe Hideyuki's decision.

He didn't have time to think so much at that time. The actual situation was that he entered Kitano Chiharu's bedroom in a panic.

The whole process happened in a flash of lightning.

When Watanabe Hideyuki reacted, he naturally stood in Kitano Chiharu's room.

The bedroom was filled with a warm and comfortable atmosphere, like a quiet harbor waiting for the returning ships.

Inside the room, soft beige tones dominate, from the walls to the furniture, all exuding a warm and tranquil charm. Several elegant watercolor paintings hang on the walls, adding a touch of artistic atmosphere to the interior.

The curtains are a light off-white color, fluttering gently, bringing a sense of quiet and tranquility.

A wooden bed frame is covered with soft bedding, and the quilt cover is embroidered with exquisite floral patterns, which looks both delicate and warm.

The layout of the entire room was completely different from what Hideyuki Watanabe had imagined.

He originally thought.

According to Kitano Chiharu's personality, the room must be the same as the black door, with an overall dark style and dark colors, but unexpectedly, it was exactly the opposite of his idea.

And he didn't know why, but when he looked at the whole room, he always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Watanabe Hideyuki slowly walked around the bedroom three times, touching here and there.

Didn't find anything special.

Logically speaking, based on his experience in Kitano Chiharu's dream, Watanabe Hideyuki was very suspicious that this bedroom was not as simple as it seemed.

There will be a dark room, right?

The kind with whips, wooden horses, candles...

But...why not?

Watanabe Hideyuki turned his eyes to the huge wardrobe located in the northwest corner of the room.

Its incongruous size makes it hard not to notice its presence.

Could it be...

Watanabe Hideyuki thought of the plots in some suspense dramas.

The kind of wardrobe that suddenly flips over...

Or maybe, if you touch a certain mechanism, the wardrobe will suddenly move away, revealing the entrance to a secret room...

Worst case scenario, if someone hides in the closet, the closet will feel the weight of the person and turn around naturally, or there is a secret passage under the closet...

All in all, Watanabe Hideyuki thought of no less than ten possibilities.

But when he actually touched the wardrobe.

He was surprised to find that the wardrobe was ordinary.

The only characteristic of the wardrobe is that it is too old. The surface is slightly rough and the color is dark. It looks like an old thing with a history of hundreds of years. It exudes a rich woody scent throughout.

This fragrance, mixed with the accumulation of time and the weight of history, made Watanabe Hideyuki involuntarily take a deep breath, as if he could smell the charm of that distant era.

What about inside?

Watanabe Hideyuki slowly opened the door of the closet, and a stronger woody scent filled his nose.

There didn't seem to be many clothes in it, just a few scattered hangers hanging on it.

Watanabe Hideyuki was suspiciously rubbing the inside of the closet with his hands.

result.

This allowed him to feel an anomaly - an uneven surface.

Watanabe Hideyuki reached in, pulled, and tugged.

It was a secret compartment, and inside it was a wooden box, which was not locked.

Could it be possible that he discovered the secret hidden by Kitano Chiharu?

Usually it was Kitano Chiharu who investigated him, but she didn't expect that this time he could turn the tables on her.

It's really rare.

A tick for a tick.

Watanabe Hideyuki reached out and opened the box without any hesitation.

Inside was... a candy jar!

He's seen this candy jar!

Watanabe Hideyuki has a clear memory. This was in the third dream, when his daughter, Watanabe Yuna, personally prepared a birthday gift for him, a candy jar filled with candies and paper cranes.

He was extremely sure.

This is exactly the same as the candy jar in the dream!

However, wasn’t the candy jar kept in his system backpack as a reward?

Watanabe Hideyuki didn't have time to think about what was going on, and he didn't even have time to check his system backpack.
