Kanagawa Taoist College Students

After returning from shopping at the convenience store, Li Xuehao started preparing dinner.

Everyone is tired today, including Chiba Sayuri, so we can't bother her anymore with dinner.

Two little girls, Sawai Yuko and Aoyama Tamako, stayed with him and occasionally helped. However, Sawai Yuko was mostly troublemaker, but Aoyama Tamako did a decent job.

"Yuzi, do you help mom with housework at home? You are such a good child." Li Xuehao praised her generously.

"Yes, brother..." Aoyama Tamako was a little shy, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes after being praised.

Sawai Yuko felt it was unfair. Why didn't she praise her? She glared and said, "Brother Haoji, I also help my mother with housework at home."

"Really? Then what are you cutting?" Li Xuehao pointed to the potato pieces on the chopping board, which she had just volunteered to cut. It didn't matter that they were of different sizes. Some of them were not even peeled. Even if they were changed to another A primary school student would probably be better at cutting than her. I really don’t understand how she can make something so simple become so complicated.

"It's a potato, brother Koji." Looking at his "work", Sawai Yuko probably felt a little embarrassed, but he was pretending to be stupid.

"Look at the carrots cut by Yuzi." Li Xuehao pointed to the shredded carrots cut by Qingshan Yuzi. It would be a bit exaggerated to say that the thickness of each carrot is the same, but it is absolutely beautiful and will not look different at first glance because of the different thicknesses. coordination.

"Tamako is not a cut potato." Sawai Yuko rolled her eyes and immediately found an excuse. I didn't expect that the lumps she cut were so outrageous, let alone the difficult cutting method of silk.

Li Xuehao ignored her excuse and deliberately said to Qingshan Yuzi on the side: "Yuzi, you have perfect scores in home economics, right?"

"Yeah." Aoyama Tamako nodded, curious about how his brother knew.

Li Xuehao originally asked this just to make Yuko Sawai feel ashamed, but he didn't expect that Tamako Aoyama really got perfect marks. He looked at the little girl next to him with hatred: "Yuko, I will learn more from Tamako in the future, housekeeping." I won’t have any illusions about getting perfect marks in class, just stop being so exaggerated about cutting potatoes.”

"Hmph!" Sawai Yuko was unhappy at being belittled, but she didn't mean to be jealous of Tamako Aoyama. She took her hand and said, "Tamako, let's watch TV and ignore Brother Koji."

"Sister Yuko..." Tamako Aoyama seemed reluctant to leave and wanted to stay to help, but Yuko Sawai had already pulled her away, probably because she didn't want to stay and create a strong contrast.

Without the help of the two girls, Li Xuehao didn't think the speed would slow down, and it would even get faster.

As time passed, the dishes for dinner were cooked one by one.

Li Xuehao put the dishes on the table, almost filling the whole table. They were colorful, exquisite and attractive, and there was a whole piece of beef being cooked in the oven, which would take some time to cook.

When Sawai Yuko smelled the fragrance, she couldn't help but come to the dining table. She even pulled Tamako Aoyama along, staring at the delicious food on the table and almost drooling. However, the little girl was still restrained and did not really reach out. I picked it up and ate it, but I couldn’t wait any longer and urged someone several times: “Brother Hao Er, when can we eat?”

"See if Sayuri and the others are up. If they are, ask them to come down for dinner." While the beef was still cooking in the oven, Li Xuehao took off his apron and left the kitchen.

"Okay!" Under the temptation of delicious food, Sawai Yuko acted quickly, picked up Tamako Aoyama and went upstairs.

Li Xuehao shook his head and changed the dishes on the table so that they looked more beautiful.

"Ding Dong~Ding Dong~" Suddenly the doorbell sounded outside.

Li Xuehao walked out of the living room and opened the door. With his spiritual sense, he already knew who it was.

Opening the door, Seto Yoko, wearing a short sportswear, was standing outside, holding two bags in his hands. They were bulging and seemed to contain a lot of things.

"Good evening, Master." Her cheeks were flushed, and there was a slight trace of sweat on her forehead, as if she had just come back from somewhere.

"Yangzi, have you just come back?" Li Xuehao asked. He remembered that when he went out to the convenience store to buy things, no one was home at the Xiaobin family next door. He probably just came back now.

"Yes, Marina and I went to Tokyo and just came back." Seto Yoko nodded, and then said, "I saw that the lights in Master's house are on, so I know that you are back from Hokkaido." He said, while lifting up the bag in his hand, "These are the snacks I bought from Tokyo and gave them to Miss Ningning."

"Ning Ning has not come back, she is still in Hokkaido." Li Xuehao said. Although Seto Yoko didn't know Mizuno Ning Ning's mermaid identity, she still knew her liking for snacks.

"Ah?" Seto Yoko was a little surprised. She originally used this excuse to visit her, but she didn't expect that the person who wanted to deliver snacks was not there.

"It doesn't matter, come in first." Li Xuehao let her in and explained, "She is with Aragaki Yuma, and it may take some time before she comes back."

"Oh." Seto Yoko nodded, still mechanically holding two large bags of snacks in his hands.

After changing into slippers, Li Xuehao led her into the living room. At this time, Sawai Yuko and Aoyama Tamako came down from upstairs. They both seemed a little excited to see Seto Yoko.

"Sister Yoko." Yuko Sawai ran over first, while Tamako Aoyama was a little slower.

"Yuko and Tamako are both here." Seeing them, Seto Yoko, who was a little overwhelmed because of the unexpected thing, also settled down. She already liked the two little girls, but found that she Since he's not the only outsider, he won't feel so uncomfortable.

"What delicious food did Sister Yoko bring?" Sawai Yuko's sharp eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the bag she was holding. He hurried to the front and reached out his hand first. Although he didn't grab it directly, he opened the mouth of the bag and saw the contents inside.

Aoyama Tamako was very thin-skinned and not as bold as she was, so she just watched from the sidelines.

"Wow, there are so many snacks, are they for me? Are they for me?" Sawai Yuko became excited and asked full of hope.

"These are not for you." Li Xuehao reached out and slapped away her hand that was holding on to the mouth of the bag and was reluctant to let go.

"Why? Sister Yoko gave this to me." Sawai Yuko rubbed the area where she was slapped. It didn't actually hurt, just a little numb, and stared at him angrily.

"This is what Yangzi gave to Ningning." Li Xuehao corrected her narcissistic statement.

"Sister Ningning?" Sawai Yuko was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that sister Ningning also likes snacks and usually eats more than her, but she will not give up easily, "But sister Ningning Not here now."

"So, I will put it away and wait for her to come back." Li Xuehao seemed to have known that she would say this and was waiting for her here.

Sawai Yuko's face dropped and she looked at Seto Yoko pitifully: "Sister Yoko..."

Seto Yoko couldn't bear to be looked at: "Yes, I can give you a little."

"Thank you, Sister Yoko." Sawai Yuko suddenly became happy, her original pitiful expression disappeared, and she glared at someone next to her, "Idiot Koji-nii!" Apparently he was still holding a grudge for not giving her food.

Li Xuehao gently pulled her ponytail. As long as it involves food, the little girl can be either big or small: "Where are Sayuri and the others?"

Sawai Yuko ignored him, but Aoyama Tamako said: "Sister Sayuri and Sister Mai are brushing their teeth and will be down soon."

"Yes." Li Xuehao nodded, looked at Seto Yoko next to him and said, "Yoko, you have just come back too, please stay and eat together."

"But Marina..." Seto Yoko was very moved, but very hesitant.

"Ask Obama-san to come too, I made a lot for dinner." Li Xuehao knew that she was worried about leaving Marina Obama alone, so he dispelled her doubts.

"Thank you, Master." Seto Yoko became happy, put down two bags of snacks, and went out to call Marina Obama.

…

There were a lot of people eating dinner, a total of ten people. Fortunately, Aragaki Yuma and Mizuno Nene did not come back, otherwise the table would not be able to sit at all, because ten people is the limit.

After dinner, Marina Obama thanked her and went back with Seto Yoko.

Li Xuehao was going to send Tamako Aoyama and Yuko Sawai home. The two girls were holding gifts, which were specialties he brought back from Hokkaido, as well as the snacks Seto Yoko had sent before. They all shared some with them. .

After sending the two girls home, Li Xuehao took out his cell phone and after a slight hesitation, he called Midori Sawai in Kyoto.

The phone rang a few times and was answered.

"Koji." Midori Sawai's voice sounded a little surprised, but his tone was calm.

"Xiaolu, I'm sorry, I should have told you before I went to Hokkaido." Li Xuehao apologized quickly. If he had told her earlier, maybe she wouldn't have to go back to Yokohama.

"Did Yuko tell you?" Midori Sawai immediately thought of who "betrayed" her.

"Yes." Of course Li Xuehao had no need to keep it secret.

"That idiot... I actually went back to get something." Midori Sawai changed the subject naturally, "By the way, is Hokkaido fun? I heard it's very cold there?"

Li Xuehao said: "Summer is not cold, but it is much cooler than Yokohama and Kyoto. Winter is probably the coldest."

"Speaking of which, I wanted to go skiing in Hokkaido before, but I never had the chance to go." Midori Sawai said.

"If you have time, how about I accompany you?" Li Xuehao heard the yearning in her tone and said in his heart.

"Is it just the two of us?" Midori Sawai smiled softly, as if he was joking, and with a tone of expectation.

"Well, there are two of us." At this time, Li Xuehao certainly would not let her down.

Hearing his promise, Midori Sawai was obviously in a good mood: "Have you called Fiana Suzuki recently?"

"...No." Li Xuehao hesitated for a moment, then told the truth, "I plan to finish the phone call with you first and then contact her."

"So, you don't know what she has done recently?" Midori Sawai seemed to be happier, and the smile could be heard in the tone of her voice.

"Huh?" Li Xuehao was stunned after hearing this. Midori Sawai's words seemed to imply that Fiana Suzuki had done something "terrible" recently.

"Don't worry, in fact she just posted some strange information on the Internet..." As he spoke, Sawai Midori suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

"Strange information?" Li Xuehao became even more curious.

"Yes, for example, I want to buy some suspected maps or treasure maps." Sawai Midori chuckled. Although it was not a mockery, he obviously thought that such an approach was whimsical.

Li Xuehao was also dumbfounded. Why did Fiana Suzuki ask for a treasure map? Could it be that her previous adventures in treasure hunting made her addicted? So how many more risks does she want to take in this way? But how is it possible that treasure maps can be purchased online? Even if there is, it's all a lie.

"I don't know if she has bought a valuable treasure map. Koji, you can call her later and ask." Midori Sawai obviously said this as a joke.

"..." Li Xuehao didn't know how to respond.

The two talked for a while and then hung up.

Next, Li Xuehao called Fiana Suzuki in Tokyo, but Fiana Suzuki obviously had something to do, or she didn't have her phone with her, and no one answered the phone after ringing for a long time.

He called again, this time after a few rings, and finally got through.

"Sorry, Koji, I was just studying a treasure map." Suzuki Fiana said apologetically, but the first sentence made Li Xuehao stunned. Sawai Midori had just told him about the treasure map. topic, I didn’t expect Fiana Suzuki to be really studying the treasure map.

"How did you get the treasure map?" He felt a little incredible. Could it be that he really bought it online?

"I posted the information on the Internet, and then an antique dealer sold it to me." Fiana Suzuki explained, "I checked it and found that this treasure map should be authentic. The material is the skin of an animal. It’s hundreds of years old.”

"What treasure is it about?" Li Xuehao believed in her vision. Since she had checked it and maybe did a carbon-14 identification, it should be somewhat credible. Although posting purchase information online was somewhat exaggerated, she also Not someone who is easily fooled.

"The location recorded in this treasure map is not in Japan, but in China." Fiana Suzuki said.

"China?" Li Xuehao was surprised. This was too big a leap.

"Yes, according to the antique dealer, this treasure map is a treasure left by a great general in the Ming Dynasty of China..." Suzuki Fiana continued.

"A general from the Ming Dynasty?" Li Xuehao became even more curious, "Did the antique dealer say what the general's name was?"

"The antique dealer himself doesn't know this." Fiana Suzuki said with some regret, but suddenly she became excited, "I remember that you understand Chinese. I'll take a photo and you can look at it. You may find some clues."
