lost narrative poem

Chapter 321

This statement is of course a joke, Xia Ran did not use illusion, nor did she only use illusion to cover up her sense of existence.

The reason why Saber attracts so much attention is because her appearance is too heroic, and such a beautiful girl is dressed in men's clothing, this contrast will naturally attract the attention of others.

Speaking of it, this world is really unfair. Everyone seems to think that there is nothing wrong with men's beauties. They are terribly inclusive. Even if girls wear men's clothes, and they are so obvious that they can be seen at a glance, they will not incur too much criticism... …

But if it’s a bigwig in women’s clothing, there are two extremes——

Either it is prettier than girls, so that people don't even know that they are big men in women's clothing. If a man wears women's clothing, and it is clearly exposed, making everyone feel hot to the eyes, then it will definitely incur a lot of harsh discrimination. eyes.

However, Xia Ran mainly thinks that Saber's experience is not bad. First, it helps her to realize more deeply that this is no longer the world she was familiar with. Second, it helps her realize that girls are It should look like a girl.

She used to wear men's clothes before, and it was also because she was a king at the time, and she had to disguise her gender out of the need to govern the country and fight for the name of righteousness.

After all, no matter what you say at that time, it was also the ancient feudal era, and some things could only be viewed in accordance with the mainstream concepts at that time. People's perspectives on things were not as enlightened as they are today.Besides, sexism still exists even today, which is really nothing to say.

To save a war-torn country, there must be an ideal king, and beside the king, there must be a noble and virtuous queen.

——This is the ideal form of governance for the people of ancient Britain at that time. The simple and clear meaning is that there must be a perfect king, a male ruler, and a virtuous queen. This is the real ideal. model.

The king must be a man, and the queen must be a woman. Everyone thinks this is the right way, and they cannot accept the occurrence of the hen sitting in the morning.

It's not like the current Great Britain. Everyone is used to the fact that the king is a woman, and they don't think there is any problem.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get used to it. The prince has been waiting for 70 years. Her Majesty the Queen has made everyone feel that when it comes to Britain, she is the “Queen” rather than the “King”. So what’s the problem? Woolen cloth?

Well, maybe the only problem is that hard-working prince...

Anyway, that's the way it is, that's why Xia Ran didn't help Arturia hide, because he didn't think it was necessary at all, so it was fine.

……

……

The boundless clear sky and the scorching sun are baking every inch of the air, making people feel the enthusiasm of summer.

Today will be a hot day too.

Raising his hand on his forehead, squinting his eyes at the cloudless sky, Xia Ran felt a little disobedient. After all, it was the winter of 1994 in the mission world before, and the time was close to ten thousand miles. The end of January is approaching December.

Even on the last night, Fuyuki City's first heavy snow fell...

It turned out that it was only the second day, and he had to face the scorching heat brought by the midsummer of the main world...

Although neither the cold nor the heat had any effect on him, this confusion still made him feel very uncomfortable.

Only those who have really experienced it can know that this is really much more troublesome than jet lag.

Walking through the pedestrian bridge, the other side is the gate of the shopping mall. Xia Ran has only been here before, so she still has an impression of this place, at least the route will not be mistaken. Saber is very interested in everything, this kind of prosperity and peace is basically something she has never seen before.

She couldn't help but look forward to it, because until now she has not given up on her wish, but has regained her confidence, so she is subconsciously thinking, if her wish is realized, Camelot's ending will eventually be changed, then— —

In that world line, what kind of state will it be in?

Is it peaceful as if asleep, ushering in the end?Or is it because of the mighty power that the magician in front of him may control at that time, so that the mystery of that era has not declined, but has been trapped forever?

Because from the perspective of mysticism, the destruction of the Kingdom of Camelot, or the end of the era of King Arthur's rule, is a historical node that represents the last breath of the Age of Gods completely disappearing.

If this period of history is changed, then mysticism will continue to rule the world, and Camelot will become a perpetual mad empire... It seems not impossible.

It's just that Saber didn't expect that if it really came to that time, it would be a mystery belt that didn't run away.

"Master, this is...the place where people of your era specialize in selling clothes?"

Standing still in front of the gate, the knight girl has learned to ignore the eyes of the people around her at this time. She is looking up at the huge building in front of her, and she sighs in astonishment from the bottom of her heart.

"Although I already feel that I am mentally prepared, but...is this a bit exaggerated? It feels similar to the palace group."

The scale of the complex in front of her was beyond imagination, but it turned out to be just a place for selling clothes? !The area is at least over [-] square meters. Is it true that modern people are so extravagant and wasteful?

——Or do they have a great market demand for clothes? !

"That's not enough. This is a commercial complex, which usually contains dozens or even hundreds of service places, including large supermarkets, specialty stores, specialty stores, etc., and even a dedicated parking lot. That's why it looks so big..."

Xia Ran explained casually. He didn't think there was anything in this shopping mall. It was probably the palace complex in his conception, which was based on the scale of the "Forbidden City" as a standard.

"In any case, Chiba is not a small city in a remote place like Fuyuki, but an important city in the Tokyo metropolitan area. It is larger than the combined area of ​​Tokyo and Kanagawa. This is the largest shopping mall in the city. , the scale is naturally the largest one..."

And he remembered that this form of business organization seemed to have begun to rise in the 50s.

But after Arturia was summoned, she probably didn't have time to spend on these unnecessary aspects.

After all, Einciberen's family is a real local tyrant, and they want to prepare some "common people's clothes" as a disguise. This kind of thing is really too simple, and it is far from the need to go to the mall to buy it in person. To a certain extent, this kind of thing basically has as much as you want, and someone will prepare it after you say it.

After that, Saber probably rushed directly to the battlefield, but Fuyuki City is a small seaside town like a remote country, so the knight girl didn't have time to experience the world...

The most important thing is that in the span of more than 20 years, the economic development has really become more prosperous than before.So it was the first time for her to face this kind of thing directly, and she was sincerely amazed.

"That is to say, this is not just a place to buy clothes?" Unable to understand the meaning of a lot of unfamiliar words Xia Ran said, the girl frowned, trying hard to grasp the key points.

"..."

"..."

"Ah, that's right, that's what I meant. This is not a place that specializes in selling clothes. There are also various other services such as shopping, dining, and leisure..." Xia Ran twitched the corners of her mouth, and then nodded.

While speaking, he had already walked into the gate of the shopping mall, and he took out a guidebook from the shelf next to it, just opened it for a look, and then found his goal.

He approached the girl, pointed to the map above and said:

"Look, there are "JASSIE" and "Lisa Lisa" counters on the inner side of the first floor. The shops in this area are basically shops with young women as the main customer group, although some The name of the store sounds like it will teach people Ripple Qigong..."

"Ripple Qigong? What is that?" Saber asked a little strangely, and at the same time subconsciously leaned back.

She wasn't too used to getting so close to Xia Ran that they could smell each other's scent.

Although she also knew that the other party really had no other intentions, just holding the guide map to point out key information to herself, of course two people had to get together to read it together. Zhang Tu stood five meters away and shook himself twice, right?

"Ripple Qigong is a special ability. It uses a special breathing method to generate ripples in the body, thereby generating powerful power... Wait, why am I telling you this, don't interrupt, just listen to me."

Xia Ran shook her head, and expelled the meaningful associations caused by the name "Lisa Lisa", as well as a series of concepts about "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure", Ripple Qigong, vampires, etc. from her mind.

"Oh, tell me..." Saber nodded obediently, but her mind was spinning rapidly.

In this way, maybe the Master's main world is not as ordinary as it appears on the surface?Although judging from the situation she felt, the magic power was a pool of stagnant water, but it seemed that it was not without other miracles.

And what about Ripple Qigong? Even this magician who can fight with Heroic Spirits personally said that it is a "powerful power", so it must be a very powerful inheritance of secret skills, right?

Although she still didn't understand why those shop names sounded like they would teach people Ripple Qigong.

"Forget it, let's go directly..." Xia Ran was interrupted by her, but she didn't know what to say, so she just took her there, ready to cut the mess quickly and solve all the problems directly.

After buying clothes, he went straight to the next place, he didn't want to get entangled in this kind of thing.

But soon, after arriving at the destination, Xia Ran suddenly realized that he had overlooked an important issue, not because he was not careful enough, but because he really had no experience in this area.

The surrounding atmosphere is obviously different. In the space intertwined with pastels and bright colors, it seems to be filled with the aroma of flowers and soap...Because it is an area dedicated to women, it is obvious that not only are there female customers around here, Even the surrounding merchandise displays are full of clothes, accessories, socks, and...

All kinds of colorful and fashionable underwear.

"..."

"..."

Xia Ran fell silent immediately, and even Saber understood what was happening in an instant, and her cheeks became completely red.

If you want to buy a full set of daily clothing, then this kind of thing seems inevitable, right?But, but... Although she really doesn't know what to do, asking the Master is the most suitable choice...

No, no, no, it's impossible, this is absolutely impossible... Although she has never cared about this kind of thing, and even always thinks that it would be best if others treat her as a man.

However, this does not mean that she can tolerate such shameless things.

"That, Saber, I..." Xia Ran finally breathed out, and turned to look at the knight girl.

"No! Absolutely not! I... I... I just want to be like this, and I don't need to buy clothes." Arturia raised her eyebrows for a moment, and expressed her denial and rejection to him very firmly. .

"We can..." Xia Ran said slowly.

"Absolutely not! A widow, a shameless person!"

The magician raised his eyebrows, looked around, and found that there were already a lot of discordant gazes cast on him, but this was also normal. As a man in this area, it was only natural that he would be scrutinized.

Coupled with Saber's overreaction just now, it naturally aroused the vigilance of many women, whether it's from customers or shop assistants... Although what he originally wanted to say was that he could ask the shopping guide lady to get a full set directly, but he couldn't.

However, thanks to Saber's overreaction as if he stepped on his tail, this option seemed to be missed.

Glancing around, he always felt that the alert bars above the heads of the women around him were about to be full, and they were about to change from question marks to red exclamation marks, so he sighed, and prepared to pull Saber's hand to retreat first.

"Huh? Is it Xia Ran? Ah, it's really Xia Ran! I finally saw you..."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the side, calling out his name loudly, as if he was very familiar with him.

Xia Ran turned his head to look, and saw a big beautiful woman with amazing appearance walking quickly, as if catching prey, this scene seemed familiar, but he relaxed all of a sudden.

Gorgeous black hair, delicate and transparent fair skin, correct facial features - a very dazzling posture, even though the whole body exudes a sense of innocence, the friendly smile adds a lot of magnificence.

At the same time, Yukinoshita Yoshino also showed a confident smile, and finally let her catch her...

But something is wrong!

Shouldn't this kid be nervous and worried when he saw himself at this time?Why is it as if seeing a savior, the expression is so familiar that it seems that you are really happy to see yourself at this time? !

(PS: Happy Labor Day, everyone... have a good rest, um, I may have a rest tomorrow too... um, nod)
