Ai shrugs and spreads her hands, but this gesture feels very out of place given that she is portrayed as Eri Kisaki!
However, such a figure and such a face are an attraction to men no matter what they do, and Xia Ye is no exception!
"Eri Kisaki," her eyes alluring, continued, "Didn't you say that if you want excitement, you have to see it through to the end?"
"Whatever makes you happy!"
Xia Ye's body stiffened, and she let out a soft sigh before falling silent.
This time, they really went all the way!
really not bad!
...
Early the next morning.
The island's inhabitants naturally discovered the mermaid statue in Mermaid Falls very quickly!
This incredible "miracle" naturally shocked people, and many even knelt down to worship on the spot.
The belief in mermaids spread throughout the entire island in an instant.
Because the mermaid statue looked so much like Junhui's mother, Mika, people soon came to the shrine to ask for clarification.
Junhui did not reveal the truth, but she did tell everyone—
Unlike the previous entertainment-style festivals, the Miko Island Shrine will now officially enshrine mermaids, and the specific ceremony is still being prepared.
Furthermore, Junhui also announced:
Grandma Changshou, who was also her great-grandmother, passed away last night at the age of 130 and has been buried in the prepared cemetery!
The residents of American Island remained silent.
A moment later, everyone expressed their condolences for the longevity woman and spontaneously went to the grave to pay their respects!
This is the tacit understanding between the residents and Junhui.
The older residents all know that the longevity goddess passed away five years ago and was buried in this cemetery.
Junhui's grandparents, father, and mother are also buried here. Some of them even secretly went to pay their respects, but they were all very careful not to leave any traces.
Now, we can finally worship openly and legitimately!
certainly--
The island's residents were very supportive of Junhui's decision to go to Tokyo for work.
After all, they all felt sorry for Junhui for sacrificing so much of her youth for the island. Now that she wants to pursue her own life, everyone naturally wants to send her their blessings!
American Island Pier.
Amidst the residents' farewell.
The ferry bound for Fukui Prefecture gradually departed from the port.
Compared to when they arrived, Xia Ye's group had one more person.
Junhui gazed sadly at the receding coastline in the distance, and whispered:
"Even though I know I can come back anytime, I still feel a sense of reluctance!"
"Of course!" Xia Ye said with a smile.
"This is a feeling that all those who leave their hometowns share, and I feel the same way! It's a pity—"
"What's a pity?"
Junhui asked subconsciously.
"It's a pity I can't go back!"
Xia Ye gazed at the vast, turbulent sea, her eyes deep and thoughtful.
Ran and Ai exchanged a glance, feeling a pang of heartache. He truly couldn't go back; after all, they were separated by a different world!
Chapter 381 Megure Green's Frail and Weak Morning
Junhui finally got the log.
I don't know much about Xia Ye yet.
Ran and Ai have spent so much time with him that they can now detect his emotions from the smallest details.
At this moment, they sensed a touch of loneliness emanating from Xia Ye.
Actually, this happened a few days ago.
Yukiko also said that.
Xia Ye's mood suddenly dipped for a moment.
Although she quickly returned to normal, as the woman who was most soulmate to Xia Ye, she cared a lot about it, and even had some of Xia Ye's worries that she didn't know!
A video conference was even held at home for this purpose.
After discussion, no abnormalities were found.
With so many beautiful women around him, Xia Ye's affairs with the women at home didn't seem to bother him at all.
Logically, he shouldn't be unhappy.
However, something was bothering him!
Everyone was completely baffled by this.
Only now did Ran and Ai have a more plausible guess: Could it be that he's homesick?
That's right. Half a year has passed since Xia Ye transmigrated. He must miss his hometown, which he can't go back to, very much.
but--
There is nothing we can do about this!
That's another world, after all!
Going back is not as simple as traveling abroad.
Ran and Ai chatted briefly in their diaries.
It seems I need to go back and discuss it with everyone again, to think of any ways to alleviate Xia Ye's homesickness.
...
Tokyo, at Inspector Megure's house.
In the bedroom, Mumu Green lazily got up, her alluring curves displayed before Xia Ye.
She gave Xia Ye a charmingly reproachful look and said coquettishly:
"You suddenly barged in first thing this morning and made a scene all morning. What's going on? Aren't any of the women in your house keeping you company?"
Xia Ye reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her smooth, white back, and sighed.
"That's right, they went out together and didn't take me with them!"
He tightened his embrace around the delicate body; only this warmth could soothe his somewhat depressed mood!
This was the second day after returning from the American island.
All the beautiful women in the family went out together early in the morning, leaving Xia Ye all alone at home.
You know, even if they made plans to hang out together before, they would always leave someone behind to keep me company, but today they've all disappeared!
Moreover, it's not just Ai and her family at home, but also Ran, Eri, Suzuki Tomoko and her two daughters, and even those who are a little more distant from Sato Miwako!
The world is deteriorating, and people’s hearts are not as old as they used to be!
Xia Ye didn't want to stay at home.
So I went out to find some fun.
He originally intended to go find Ayumi's mother, Mrs. Saori.
However, since Saori took Ayumi back to her parents' house today, he had no choice but to stop by Inspector Megure's house to "catch up" with Midori Megure!
"Hmph, you only come to me because you have no one else to keep you company, huh?"
Megure Midori pinched the soft flesh of Natsume's waist with her slender fingers and let out a soft moan:
"I wonder if you're this cruel to your precious ones!"
"Cough cough!"
Xia Ye coughed lightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
He was indeed in a bad mood when he came, so he was a little rough with Megure.
But—"Why didn't I see you resist? You were cooperating quite well, weren't you?"
"Pooh!"
Megure Midori's pretty face flushed crimson.
Xia Ye is not wrong.
Those omitted processes might be a bit too rough for a young girl, but they're just right for someone like me!
As for what he said earlier, that was just him flirting with Xia Ye.
"But I've never seen you come to see me often!"
"I asked Inspector Megure to invite you, but you didn't come!"
Megure's beautiful eyes were filled with resentment. Since they had already crossed the line, she naturally longed to have more "secret meetings" with Natsume, but this scoundrel never came, and she was still left alone in her empty room!
Moreover, having experienced Xia Ye, how can one ever go back to the way things were before!
"Ahem, I feel a little bad because you had Inspector Megure deliver the message personally!"
Xia Ye chuckled awkwardly.
"Heh, you've taken advantage of me and now you're saying you're embarrassed?"
How could Megure not know his lecherous thoughts? She lightly poked his chest with her slender fingers, her tone annoyed:
"I don't believe you didn't find it exciting when you heard that! You men are all like that, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a stolen one, hmph!"
"you're right..."
Xia Ye had to admit that the ancients' summary was indeed insightful!
The word "steal" has a unique flavor, which he particularly likes. After all, the Prime Minister's legacy and the spirit of the Jian'an era are the realms he aspires to!
"Hmph, although I haven't contacted them directly, I can still deduce some things by making a few inquiries—"
Megure Midori straightened up, ignoring Natsume's burning gaze, and instead looked at his handsome face with a charming smile:
"Putting everything else aside, Eri Kisaki and Yukiko Fujimine shouldn't be divorced yet, right? Who can't tell what your hobbies are!"
"you are wrong!"
Xia Ye's lips curled into a mischievous smile:
"It's just one of my hobbies; you'll gradually discover the others!"
"You're still very proud, aren't you!"
Megure Green's beautiful eyes were speechless. She was about to tease him a bit when she saw his burning gaze. She quickly braced herself against his chest with her slender hand and let out a startled cry:
"Wait! I'm tired—ugh!"
Around noon, Xia Ye glanced at the exhausted Megure lying on the bed and said with a smile:
"Then I'll go first~"
"Why don't you stay for dinner?"
Megure Midori tried hard to sit up, but her body was too weak and she couldn't manage it after several attempts. So she glanced at Natsume with her beautiful eyes:
"Come help me up!"
"Forget it~"
Xia Ye bent down, gently stroked her cheek, wiped away a bead of sweat, and tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her ear, softly saying:
