[Net King] Twilight

In fact, the 'grand occasion' that He Xi thought was not the kind where many onlookers were crowded inside and outside the ashram, nor was it that relevant people attended in costumes as if they were attending a banquet.

The whole process is very boring in detail, because it is in the dojo, everyone needs to sit on their knees, and everyone's expression is more solemn and solemn, without any hint of happiness or curiosity.

He Xi was still very uncomfortable sitting in an inconspicuous corner. She quietly looked around at the people in the dojo. She also saw a few famous people who often appeared in newspaper news, which made her feel taller. on.

In fact, she admired Ikeda Natsuna's calmness, if she was the one receiving the knife at this time, she must be too scared to speak out loud.

The old man in front of the dojo was dressed in a well-groomed kimono and gave a standard official speech. Then he turned around and respectfully took the enshrined Taidao from the altar, and handed the Taidao to Natsuna Ikeda himself.

Ikeda took it with both hands, and there was a round of applause, which was regarded as a gift.

After the knife awarding ceremony, the guests left, and He Xi was also relieved. Fortunately, she only wanted to come over out of curiosity. If she lived in such an environment every day, she wondered if her personality would become autistic.

Maybe, he will also become like that Sanada-kun, with facial paralysis?

……

"Mom, I also signed up for the kendo class under the name of Sanada Banshi for you. You can go to class next week."

"Nani!?"

On the night when she came back from the dojo, a certain mother who wished her daughter would become a phoenix made a solemn announcement.And a certain father who loves his wife madly looks at his wife and daughter with a doting face.

The corners of He Xi's eyes twitched, she knew that if her mother found out that Ikeda had performed another miracle, her semester would definitely end in tragedy again.

*****

And the truth is often more cruel than the premonition, and her semester is not just a tragedy.

He Xi swears that in the past 12 years of her life, she has never been so busy and nervous.

She also swears that she has never had such a high popularity attention in so many years... Although the focus of their attention is not her.

For example, in class, she would always be called by the teacher to answer more difficult questions. She didn’t respond very quickly and seemed a little slow, so the teacher asked her to sit down, and then called Ikeda to answer. Ikeda’s answer made the teacher Very satisfied, and then the difference between excellent students and poor students gradually appeared...

At that time, He Xi really felt that the teacher did it on purpose, as the so-called green leaves match red flowers.

For another example, no matter when and where she is often approached by people she doesn't know, and they all talk about her tablemate, and there are a few people who want to take this opportunity to get close to Ikeda.

In addition, she also spent a lot of effort in her studies, abolishing the policy of cramming. In order to satisfy her mother's wish, she is also studying hard, trying to get into Lihai University with not bad grades.

There is still significant improvement in the results. Her grades in the school's quizzes, mid-term exams and various exams are improving every time. In fact, she stopped tutoring after the summer vacation, but her mother firmly believed that it was Xia Nai's next door. Thanks to him, he specially invited the Ikeda family to have a sumptuous dinner.

He Xi was too lazy to explain, so she gave all the credit to Ikeda indifferently.

Although she lives a relatively fulfilling life, she will still insist on contacting Nioh in Fukuoka by email every day, and she has changed from a sentence or two of greetings to telling about the current situation.

Like, she was forced by her mother to learn something she didn't like.Or received a love letter at school again, but unfortunately it wasn't for her.

Nioh, who was treated as a trash can, replied full of teasing. At this time, He Xi would try hard to recall whether this kid Nioh Masaharu was serious, but the result of the recollection was that she hadn't found out yet.

The days passed quietly in such a long stream with few big ups and downs, and soon came the winter vacation that all students were looking forward to.

Japan's winter vacation has always been very short. Unlike the long-term summer vacation, this year's winter vacation only lasts for half a month. During the holiday period, they will experience Christmas and New Year, two important festivals for the people.

During Christmas, He Xi bought a lot of stickers of Santa Claus. Not only did he paste them on every window of his house, but he also used his lovable and cute side to successfully sneak into Nioh’s house, and even posted stickers on the windows of his friends’ rooms. Same stickers.

Two identical elk dolls, one hung on the window of his own room, and the other hung in King Ni's room.Every year in the past, she and Nioh exchanged Christmas gifts like this, but when Nioh was away, she had to insist on doing it alone.But she still felt unbalanced, and then decided that when King Ni came back, the gift must be given to her.

Compared with the loneliness of Christmas, what is more regrettable is that Nioh Masaharu really kept his word and stayed in Fukuoka this year for the New Year.

He Xi wiped the mist off the window with her hands, and looked at the dark room across the street a little lonely. Unlike other families' reunions and festive celebrations, Niwang's house seemed too lonely and gloomy.

Just two days ago, Nioh's parents took their eldest daughter and youngest son to Fukuoka, and the annual reunion home was changed to another place.

【Ah Xi, don't miss me too much when I'm not around, puff. 】

[Next year, I can come back to study at Lihai University. I don’t want to go to school with you, Axi, in the morning. I will be late every day. 】

Cut~ Who wants to go to school with you!But, are they in the same school...

Only when she was alone did she not seem awkward enough to admit that she was really looking forward to it.

Eating rice cakes on New Year's Eve, what I heard was the bells from a distant temple, until I silently counted to 108 with the bells in my heart, He Xi squinted her eyes and said with a smile:

"Happy New Year, Masaharu."

She will remember to pray for you, which is what she promised.

******

The kimono on her body was newly made this year, very girly pink, dotted with scattered small flowers, even a girl like He Xi who is not a lady at all can wear it elegantly.

He Xi's family doesn't have many relatives, but she can still receive a lot of lucky money on such a day, and she is also very happy to go door to door with her parents to pay New Year's greetings.

Natsuna Ikeda from the next door family drove to Tokyo with her parents early in the morning. Ikeda's mother has an older sister who lives in Tokyo. The two often ask each other to go shopping, and the two families often get together. They will visit each other during the New Year.

To be honest, wearing a kimono on Ikeda really matches her temperament, and it shows her innate elegance even more.

Without the company of her peers, He Xi had no choice but to follow her parents to a nearby shrine to pay homage.

Like the believers who came and went, He Xi also got a note with New Year's revelation. Although the content and meaning on it were rather vague and difficult to understand, He Xi hung the note on the tree without thinking too much about it.

Put your palms together piously, pray for New Year's wishes, and help to ask for Nioh's share by the way.

……

"What wish does our family's He Xi have?"

He Xi stuck out her tongue mischievously: "Then will dad help me finish it?"

Mu Mu Jinze's tone was very abductive, and he still regarded He Xi as a child who was easy to coax, and said, "Let's talk about it first and listen, of course it's no problem if it's easy to do."

Mumu Qianchun next to her hadn't put down her clasped hands, and first announced her new year's wish: "I only hope that our girl can become smarter, more diligent, and more well-behaved, and I don't want anything else."

He Xi twitched her face twice, what a coincidence, what she wanted was exactly the opposite of yours, mom.

……

After a short winter vacation and a lively New Year, the students are faced with various courses in the school, and for He Xi, this is also the last time to leave school.
