Chapter 398 Kaori Saori

The museum of Mermaid Island is located next to the beach, just a two-minute walk from the beach.

The museum is a small white-roofed house nestled among many tropical plants.

The museum originally had a fee, but the man guarding the entrance knew Shimabukuro Kimie, and he let us in with a smile as soon as he saw them.

He also said: "Jun Hui brings friends over to play. Okay, okay, just relax. The celebrations in the next few days will all depend on you!"

Shimabukuro Kime bowed politely to the uncle and thanked him. Nobuhiro noticed the meaning of the old man's words.

Does everything depend on Shimabukuro Kimie?

As expected, the elderly residents of this small island knew the secret of fate, but they concealed it "in good faith" for the sake of the tourism industry that Mermaid Island relies on for survival, and for the gimmick of longevity.

It can be said that the driving force behind Shimabukuro Kimie becoming a murderer and depriving three lives were the neighbors who lived with her day and night.

Except for Shimabukuro Kimie, almost everyone knows the truth, but everyone hides it from her.

"Do you want to eat mango?" Nobuhiro suddenly asked.

Shimabukuro Kimie was stunned, thinking she heard wrongly: "What?"

"I saw the old man at the gate selling boxes of cut mangoes at the same time. You have been out for so long. Do you want to eat some fruit? It will just quench your thirst."

"I don't care, if you need it, just buy it." Shimabukuro Kimie felt confused.

Even if she thinks her role as a guide is not easy, she should be rewarded on the beach, right? There were obviously ice cream vendors on the beach, but Hisashi Watanabe wanted to buy her some mangoes.

My mangoes are very cheap. He peeled and cut them into pieces carefully, then put them neatly in a plastic box and handed them to Nobuyoshi.

Nobushige didn't take a bite, but handed the entire box of mangoes to Shimabukuro Kimie.

"Ah, thank you." Shimabukuro Kime took it with a confused look on her face, inserted a toothpick into her mouth, and put it in her mouth.

The mango is very sweet and the ice coldness is very thirst quenching. The more she became worried, the more panicked she became, and she always felt that Hisashi Watanabe's expression was strange.

"that……"

"Aren't mangoes delicious?" Xinfan said to her with a smile, "I was too quiet when I was a child. When I visited my neighbor's house as a guest, the neighbor enthusiastically served a large plate of mangoes, but I was embarrassed to eat them. I was thinking at that time I could take the mangoes home and eat them slowly before I left. But I didn’t expect that my neighbor had already put away the mangoes before I left.”

Shimabukuro Kimie couldn't help it, and a smile escaped from the corner of his mouth.

Nobushige continued: "Since then, even if I often go to my neighbor's house to eat mangoes, achieving mango freedom has still become my goal."

What happened to Mango is true, but he adapted it a lot.

In fact, he had just been to the dentist and couldn't eat. Before leaving, the neighbor asked them to take the mangoes with them, but Zhu Fu Gaoming, who was already in school at the time, politely declined.

Jingguang himself didn't really want to eat mangoes, but this incident was often used by his parents to make fun of his two children. Gradually, mangoes seemed to have become an obsession in his heart.

"I didn't expect you Tokyoites to have such good neighborly relations!" Shimabukuro Kime sighed. "I have lived here since I was a child and have never been to the main island. Before, I always thought that in a big city like Tokyo, people interact with each other. The distance is so far that even neighbors find it difficult to see each other.”

Nobutushige actually doesn't know much about what neighborhood relations are like in Tokyo. After graduating from school, every time he moved, it was basically a short stay. Often he has checked all the information about his neighbors, even knowing how many times he peed his pants when he was a child. However, the neighbors don't even know what pseudonym Nobushige is using.

Well, of course, the investigation was just to investigate the living environment. Nobuhiro promised that he had absolutely no intention of prying into other people's privacy.

Nobushige did not know the situation in Tokyo, and the scene he described was based on Nagano Prefecture. Compared with the bustling metropolis, this place famous for its agriculture and forestry is a bit more simple. The relationships between people are also more real.

"When you live in one place for a long time, you naturally become familiar with the neighbors." Xin Fanyi pointed out, "But as long as you are a human being, you cannot be selfish. The same is true for the neighbors who took good care of me when I was a child."

The uncle who had been watching Shimabukuro Kimie eating mangoes suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Nobushige.

"That's it." Shimabukuro Kime's smile faded a little.

The death of her mother seemed to confirm what Hisashi Watanabe said. But she is even more grateful to the police who tried to help find out the truth after her mother's death, as well as the residents of Mermaid Island.

In any case, the mother's bones were treated with dignity as those of a mermaid. For this, Shimabukuro Kimie is grateful.

But...those people must pay the price with their lives.

Because Shimabukuro Kimie didn't know what else she could do for her mother.

…

Nobushige and Shimabukuro Kimie met another unexpected person when they entered the museum.

"Jun Hui?"

The man was wearing a thin blue knitted sweater and had black square eyes. She was very surprised when she saw Shimabukuro Kime and immediately came up to her.

There was a hint of sadness in Shimabukuro Kime's eyes, but he soon regained his clarity.

She pretended to be affectionate and grabbed Saori Menari's hand: "Saori, why are you here?"

Kadori Saori's eyes were a little dodgeful. She looked at Nobushige first, and then quietly said to Shimabukuro Kimie, "I'm here to pay homage to the mermaid-sama."

"Really?" Shimabukuro June's hand became a little heavier.

However, Saori Monori was unaware of this: "The Dugong Festival is coming soon. I think if the mermaid can forgive me for losing the Dugong Arrow, she will definitely give me another one!"

"I said you don't need to take the Dugong Arrow so seriously, just throw it away. Because even I don't think that legend is true."

Kadori Saori's face immediately changed, and she said in an almost scolding tone: "How can you say that? Mermaid-sama will be angry after hearing this! After all, you are a shrine maiden, and you should shoulder the responsibility of contacting the gods. of!"

Shimabukuro Kimie looked at Nobushige helplessly: "Well, Mr. Watanabe, I'm sorry. This is my good friend who grew up with me - Kadori Saori."

"Hello, I am a tourist coming to Mermaid Island for vacation, and I am also a friend of Miss Shimabukuro, Hisashi Watanabe." Nobubangi gently extended his hand to Saori Kadori.

However, Saori Kadori refused very humiliatingly: "The person approaching you at this time must be for dugong arrows, right? You have to be careful!"

The smile on Nobushige's face remained the same, with no sign of cracking at all.

I feel like the last few chapters are like blind dates I arranged for my own son. And the ending should be: the girls suddenly realize that they like girls after going on a blind date with Nobuhiro! Then... Dear readers, recommended monthly tickets are available!
