Chapter 169 Father and Daughter
Hearing what the boy in the daughter's body said, Toshiki Miyamizu heaved a long sigh of relief, and his body, which had been tightly bandaged, also relaxed.

As the body relaxes, the chaotic memories in the head just now seem to become orderly.Among them, the first one is the conversation between the two when they first met and parted.

At that time, I was visiting Miyamizu Shrine as a folklore scholar, and my wife and mother were quite impatient with my arrival, so I handed over the reception task to Erye, who was not my wife at that time.

Even though it has been so long, as long as he recalls that time, Miyamizu Toshiki can't help being intoxicated by his wife's amorous feelings.Unlike her staid mother, Erye made people feel extremely comfortable no matter what she said or did. Before they parted, she was already looking forward to the next meeting.

Then, at the time of parting, he asked about the matter that he had cared about for a long time.

"When I came to bother you just now, you seemed to be taken aback when you saw my face, but you soon smiled again. What's going on?"

Erye still had a smile on her pretty face, but she looked a little embarrassed, and she was startled by what she said:
"I can't say why, but the first time I saw you, I thought you would be my husband. Why? It's incredible."

When Erye was speaking, she kept her face as if nothing had happened. She turned her face away after seeing her surprised expression, put her hand on her chin, and let out a small exclamation from her mouth:
"Oh, me, it's so strange... Isn't it so strange?"

yeah, weird?Miyamizu Toshiki couldn't remember how he answered at that time.But at this moment, he still has a clear answer in his heart: It's not surprising, I also have a familiar feeling when I see you, as if I've known you for a long time.

When they met for the first time, they used honorifics unfamiliarly and politely. At this moment, thinking of that memory still makes Miyamizu Toshiki feel warm and interesting, as well as missing.

"So, you and Aunt Erye have indeed exchanged bodies?"

A sudden voice interrupted Miyamizu Toshiki's memory, his eyes regained focus, and only then did he realize that he had unconsciously spoken that memory out loud.

Really, is it because of too much mental ups and downs?He secretly blamed himself.However, if he and Erye have exchanged bodies, then this is reasonable, but why can't they remember each other?

"And after I return to my body, the memory of the exchange will become very blurred. Maybe after the exchange is completely over, I will become like you and Aunt Erye. Maybe I only have a vague impression of each other." Hojo Kyosuke didn't wait for the other party to think, and then expressed his own speculation.

"This..." Miyamizu Toshiki's eyes widened, everything seemed to be explained.

Just like the current Mitsuha is called the Goddess, Erye will seem to know everything, and it is also because she sees things that she has never been in contact with through her own eyes.Although the memory of each other will disappear after exchanging bodies, but some common sense things and special memories will remain?

It is also because of this that the wife has such a high affection for me who only met for the first time, and fought hard with her mother in order to marry him.And to support myself at the expense of falling out with my family, and saying goodbye to my teacher in school is not love at first sight, but the two have a deep relationship before?

"So it's like this, so it's like this..." Gongshui Junshu murmured, he brought the teacup to his mouth, and when he was about to drink it, he found it was empty.

Hojo Kyosuke now knows that Miyamizu Mitsuha's father respected him so much before. It was not an ancient Nara ritual, but he regarded himself as an unknown god, and of course he became discerning again.Quickly picked up the teapot from the tray to help Toshiki Miyamizu add tea.

"Use it, please." The offense and defense were instantly replaced.

"This seems to be the first time in four years that I've had tea poured by my daughter. I didn't expect this to be the case."

Miyamizu Toshiki looked at the amber translucent tea, shook his head and smiled wryly.The long-standing worries in his heart were solved, and he also knew the secret between himself and his wife. He was in a good mood for a while, and he had the leisure to think about other things.

"Well, excuse me, even if you want to enter politics, it seems that there is no need to leave Miyamizu Shrine, right?" Seeing that the opportunity is not lost, the life mentor Kyosuke Hojo decisively cut into the battlefield. Yesterday Yotsuba said "Daddy ran away from home" It has been playing in his mind non-stop, and he really can't forget it like a stick in his throat.

If there is still a father in the family, Yotsuba will never be so happy because of a bicycle, maybe she can take the mayor's father's special car every morning to go to school or something.At first, Kyosuke Hojo saw Yotsuba wearing shorts and short sleeves every day and thought it was the uniform of neon country children, but later when he sent Yotsuba to school, he found that her classmates were all wearing beautiful little skirts.Yotsuba's childhood really made Hojo Kyosuke feel sad, but fortunately there is still time to save it.

Moreover, Kyosuke Hojo knew that Toshiki Mizoguchi was originally called Toshiki Mizoguchi, and the reason why he did not restore his original surname after he ran away from home was probably borrowing the influence of the Miyamizu family in Itomoricho.Otherwise, in a closed town like Itomori, it must not be so easy for an outsider like him to become mayor in a short period of time.

In this case, even if he wants to go into politics, it doesn't affect his continued stay at the Miyamizu Shrine, and it doesn't even matter if he continues to serve as the shrine master.After all, as far as Hojo Kyosuke knew, the Miyamizu Shrine did not belong to the main hall of the shrine, and many rules were different from ordinary shrines.The main hall of the shrine, which manages more than 9000 shrines among the Neon [-] shrines, has many rules, but the authority of the Miyamizu Shrine in Itomori is much higher than him.

If Toshiki Miyamizu still serves as the God Lord, he may not even need to run for office.Just like the current Mitsuha Miyamizu, if she says she wants to be the mayor, maybe the townspeople will launch an initiative to "suggest that 14-year-old girls can also participate in the management of the municipality."

"It's not what you think. Although I am indeed borrowing the power of the surname Miyamizu, if I stay there, my wish will never be fulfilled, and the tragedy will still repeat itself."

Faced with the same face as his own daughter, Toshiki Miyamizu unconsciously said a little more, but then he became angry again.That's right, it was because of this kid that Mitsuha became the Goddess!The townspeople will regard Sanye as the agent of the gods who surpassed Erye.After all, Sanye didn't show his wife's extraordinary talent since she was a child, but now she has become so outstanding under the influence of this kid.

"Tragedy?" Hojo Kyosuke asked in confusion, for Itomori's tragedy, he could only think of a comet hitting the earth.

"It's all because of you, Sanye has become the same as Erye!" Toshiki Miyamizu was outraged, it was not a god, but a boy of unknown origin who was using his daughter's body to misbehave.Although he may have done similar things when he switched bodies with his wife, but now he is a father.

"...I know you are very angry, but don't worry, at least let me know why you are angry. After all, you see, I did not cause the exchange of bodies, maybe there is some kind of arrangement somewhere."

"Are you kidding? If this is the case again, have you been brainwashed by the Gongshui family?"

What Hojo Kyosuke didn't expect was that when he said those words, the man opposite seemed to be even more angry.

"At that time, Erye was like this, and you were also like this. It was because of this that I wanted to completely destroy this ignorant place!"

Hey, it's too hot-blooded to destroy this place or something.Uncle, you don't have a cursor on the top of your head, so don't pretend to be the protagonist of the hot-blooded manga.Hojo Kyosuke complained frantically in his heart, then raised his hand and pressed the void twice, trying to calm down the furious man.

"Let's talk slowly, there may be some misunderstandings, start from the beginning. What is the tragedy you mentioned before, what did Aunt Erye say, what will happen when Sanye becomes the same as Aunt Erye." It's not a riddle People, they will be expelled.

Lifting up the somewhat cold tea and drinking it in one gulp, Miyamizu Toshiki turned his head and looked out the window, taking two deep breaths.

Hojo Kyosuke also turned his head following his movements, only to find that the outside of the window was facing the Miyasui Shrine on the top of the mountain.The yellow light came on, and he remembered that the place seemed to be Kagura Hall, where Mitsuha Miyamizu and her sister practiced Kagura dance under the guidance of her grandmother.

"My wife, Miyamizu Erye, was murdered."

shock!
Hojo Kyosuke was taken aback by these words, and quickly shifted his gaze from the window to the face of the man opposite.But he saw that the other party was still looking at Gongshui Shrine, with unspeakable hatred in his eyes.This made the murderer who he just wanted to blurt out swallowed into his stomach again. It couldn't be killed by grandma or Yotsuba, right?
So Hojo Kyosuke, the famous swordsman in Tokyo, let go of the sword in his heart, and decided to listen carefully, and he is not in a hurry to uphold justice.He knew that once he opened the chatter box, he didn't need to urge Toshiki Miyamizu to continue talking.

Sure enough, although Miyamizu Toshiki turned his head and glared at Hojo Kyosuke because there was no one to cheer him up, he continued to say:

"Shortly after Yotsuba was born, Erye fell ill. I don't know if it was because my subconscious was very repulsive. I still can't remember what kind of disease it was. I only know that her immune cells are out of control. But even if she is already sick It's serious, and she still refuses to go to the hospital, do you know why?"

Hojo Kyosuke still didn't speak, he knew that the man opposite didn't need to respond, he was asking himself in memory.

"Because she is the maiden of the Miyamizu Shrine, the messenger of the gods in the hearts of the townspeople, and the representative of the gods. And such an existence, why does it need to go to modern medical facilities for treatment?"

Every word of these words seemed to be squeezed out from between the teeth. Just listening, Hojo Kyosuke could feel Miyamizu Toshiki's monstrous hatred for the townspeople and Miyamizu Shrine.He also understood why the other party said that the tragedy would happen again to Sanye.

"Even if she was sent to the hospital because of fainting in the end, Erye still refused to go to the hospital in the big city for treatment. In the ordinary hospital in this small place, I can only watch my wife struggle with the illness alone in pain. , the condition is getting worse."

As if gradually returning to the memory that will never be forgotten, Hojo Kyosuke saw that the man on the opposite side was trembling uncontrollably. He clenched his hands so hard that his knuckles were trying to break out of the fleshy package.

He couldn't help thinking of Yingliang. If Yingliang didn't cooperate with the treatment like this, he would force him to take him to a better hospital no matter what?However, if the treatment is too painful, maybe he can't bear it, but at that time, Yingliang will definitely smile and comfort him and say that he is not in pain at all.No way, he has always been indecisive when facing his beloved.

"My wife seems to have completely given up the desire to survive. Even when I knelt in front of the hospital bed and begged her, she just smiled and said to me, 'everyone has their own destination'. For that ridiculous reason, she wanted to give up Me and the girls?"

Hearing this, Kyosuke Hojo knew why Miyamizu Toshiki was furious because of what he said before, and the free arrangement he said was indeed very similar to what Auntie Erye said.

"I will never allow it. As a highly educated person, I will never agree that the development of modern medical technology is to save those powerless tragedies in the past!"

Okay, I thought so too!Hojo Kyosuke applauded in his heart, even if the medical technology is not good, I still have an omnipotent system, and it is absolutely impossible for plot killings to exist!
"Just after I contacted a large hospital in Tokyo that specializes in the treatment of immune system diseases, I received a call from the hospital. Erye, she died."

Hojo Kyosuke was slightly taken aback, she didn't expect that the death of Aunt Erye, who had so many legends, would be so common and hasty.

"All she left me was an even more inexplicable sentence 'this is not a farewell'. But isn't the so-called death a farewell?!"

Speaking of this, Toshiki Miyamizu cried out.Then he raised his head and looked at Hojo Kyosuke, who was surprised by the hideous expression at that moment.Regardless of complaining about Yan Yi performances and the like, Hojo Kyosuke was quickly shocked by the other party's next words.

"Regarding Erye's death, none of the townspeople who respected her very much showed any sad expression, 'Miss Erye is so kind and outstanding, that's why she was called by God's grace early'. Everyone says that."

Miyamizu Toshiki had a strange expression on his face at the moment, as if he was smiling, but he kept crying, and the corners of his mouth were bent down.Kitjo Kyosuke thought for a while before finding a similar expression in his head. It was the smile of the clown who went to see a psychiatrist because of depression, but was suggested by the doctor to watch a clown show.

"Even my wife's mother, the head of the Miyamizu Shrine, said, 'Since Erye said this is her destination, let her go.' Such stupid words. However, Erye is A real person. Why did he refuse to go to the hospital, and the hospitals in big cities, all because of them!"

The scene described in Toshiki Miyamizu's words made Hojo Kyosuke shudder. Even if an unfamiliar neighbor passed away due to illness, he would lament the impermanence of the world and send silk money.But in Itomori, facing Miyamizu Futaba's death, the townspeople's reaction was so weak?ruthless?Bizarre?

How could an angel of God get sick?She must be sick because of God's grace, right?Hojo Kyosuke finally understands the source of Miyamizu Toshiki's anger, that's why he said that Aunt Erye was killed, no one knows whether her illness can be cured, but she may indeed give up survival because of this desire.

He could understand Miyamizu Toshiki's anger, he couldn't forgive the crazy townspeople and Miyamizu Kazuyo, someone had to pay the price for his wife's death, otherwise the anger in his heart couldn't be calmed down.

Sure enough, what Miyamizu Toshiki said next confirmed his guess.

"Under the small town of Itomori, there is an invisible net. Everyone is in the grid, and the center is Miyamizu Shrine. It is this net that binds my wife. She will die before she dies. She made such an abnormal move precisely because the people in this big net cast strange glances at her!

Miyamizu Shrine refers to the relationship between people and people, things and things, and people and things as gods.

In other words, Erye was betrayed by God.This ignorant belief, this damn relationship, is the murderer who killed Erye! "

Miyamizu Toshiki gritted his teeth and said his conclusion.

"That's why you want to go into politics and change this town?" Hojo Kyosuke guessed.

"It's not changing, it's destroying! I'm angry at those foolish people who have been brainwashed by gods, and at the illusory gods. I want to destroy this place ruled by the belief of Gongshui Shrine! It's all because of this kind of thing, Erye even You can’t die like an ordinary person! This kind of small town that shouldn’t exist in modern society should be completely destroyed.”

Well, I thought it was a hot-blooded comic, but I didn't expect it to become a bewildered person in an instant.

"But, why don't you take grandma and Mitsuha and Yotsuba out of here together? With your ability, no matter where you are, you can do more, right?"

Shouldn't normal people's thinking be to leave this sad place?Uncle, what you said just now is too much like a villain, you know.But he also knew that if he was not the person involved, he would not be able to truly experience the unforgettable hatred of losing his lover, but he didn't want to experience it either.

"...As I said before, if no one pays for this, the anger in my heart cannot be calmed down. Moreover, Mitsuha and Yotsuba both chose to stay at Miyamizu Shrine when I left home !” Miyamizu Toshiki said sadly.

"click"

The sudden sound of taking pictures brought Toshiki Miyamizu back to his senses.

"What are you doing?" Is there something wrong with this kid occupying his daughter's body?Why would you take a picture of yourself at a time like this?What is he thinking about?
"Look at yourself now, I think even now, Sanye and Yotsuba will still be too scared to leave with you."

Hojo Kyosuke raised his mobile phone and said, regarding the death of Aunt Futaba, the reactions of the townspeople and Toshiki Miyamizu were completely two extremes. The former was too indifferent, while the latter was so sad that his daughters were afraid.

Is that yourself?Miyamizu Toshiki looked at the man who looked like a ghost on the phone screen, and couldn't believe it for a moment.

Yes, after the death of his wife, the young Sanye and Yotsuba were the ones who needed comfort the most, but they were crying all day long, and their daughter was completely taken care of by the grandmother.From time to time, the daughters would tiptoe over worriedly to check on their situation, but they would be frightened by their own appearance.

Even when he left the shrine, a violent argument broke out with his wife's mother, completely ignoring the fearful daughters hugging him next to him.

That's right, compared to this self, they are more willing to rely on the grandma who took care of and comforted the two granddaughters who lost their mother and father while arranging the funeral of their daughter during the most difficult days, right?Or is it that the shrine full of mother's breath makes them feel more at ease?

Miyamizu Toshiki froze on the spot, not knowing what expression to make.You know, he also had a slight resentment in his heart for the daughters who were unwilling to leave him.However, he had no idea that all of this was caused by himself.

"So, have I been wrong all this time?" He lowered his head and murmured, the remaining tears on his face merged into a thread and fell into the teacup, causing the amber tea to ripple in circles.

Hojo Kyosuke didn't speak, but quietly turned his head and looked out of the window. He never said anything to others... Well, he said something about other people's family affairs, but at this time, it was obvious that the other party already had an answer in his heart.

"Mother, Mitsuha, Yotsuba..." Toshiki Miyamizu raised his head and followed Hojo Kyosuke's line of sight, with deep thoughts on his face.

Neon people refer to mother-in-law as Yilimu, which is directly expressed as mother here.

When the knot in the hearts of the daughters was untied, countless good memories between the father and the daughter came to my mind, bringing with me irrepressible longing.

"Then, Uncle Gongshui, do you want to go home with me? My sister misses your father who ran away from home very much."
