Chapter 507: The Trip to Japan


    SinceI finally had free time, Iwanted to travel to rx mytensenerves.I nned to invite Chuyias well.


    How about Japan? suggested Yin Xinyue. It was the right season to visit Japan. She hadbeen wantingto visit Kyoto for a long time, but she hadnt had the time yet.It was a good opportunityto take heron herdream trip.


    Although I wasntthatfond of Japan, since Yin Xinyue wanted to go, I agreed.


    I called Li Mazi, andhe also agreed. He really wanted to take Ru Xue to Japan to enjoy sushi. Chuyi had no objections to this trip, either.As such,we finalizedourtrip to Kyoto.


    One weekter, we took a direct flight to the airport inOsaka. When weexitedthe airport, I saw a man holding a board with my name on it. He was the interpreter I had hired from atravelingwebsite. His name was Xiao Gao.


    Xiao Gao was a young bespectacled man in his twenties. He was a student in Japanwho worked as a trantor duringthe semester break to cover his tuition.


    Icalled him, waving at him. Xiao Gao came over and shook my handwith greatenthusiasm. Ive alreadybookedyour bus tickets to Kyoto. Well set out tomorrow at around9:00 AM. As for today,do you want to visit the duty-free shop to buy some gifts?


    Xiao Gao had already helped usget someJapanese yen. My first impression of him was good. This young man was cheerful anpetent. He should be agoodinterpreter.


    We can shopter. We should get a roomfirst! suggested Yin Xinyue.


    Xiao Gao called two cabs. Onourway to the city, he used his phone to book a good hotel for us.


    We didnt bring many belongings, just some spare clothes. We asked the receptionist to keep the luggage for us and went out for lunch.


    Xiao Gao asked,Whatdo you want for lunch, Japanese or Chinese? In Japan, Chinese food is popr, especially the spicy Sichuan specialties.AsJapanese people dont like spicy food that much, most of the dishes are sweet.


    Of course, we had the same idea.Sincewe hade here to travel, we should try as many of the local foods as possible!


    Xiao Gaobroughtus to a sushi restaurant where the diners sat around a highandround table. A conveyor beltcarriedfoodtoandfromthe kitchen. The kitchen was separated from the dining areaby a sswall. We could see the chefs working with rawingredientslike fish and crab. Aftermaking thesushi dish, they wouldce iton the conveyor. We could choose anything we wanted, andthey would count the number ofempty disheswhen we wanted to pay.


    Yin Xinyue foundsomething interesting.We could put theteswe finished into a box. After wehadfiveempty tes, we could do alucky-draw. Ru Xue and Yin Xinyuetried it out andreceived a few stickers. They asked us to try our luck as well.


    Li Mazi tried a few times,butall he got was a badge. Heimmediately put it on his chest.


    I got a small stuffed animal, while Chuyidrewa bunch of surprise eggs everytime, which shocked us quite a bit.


    The taste of sushi wasgood, and we really enjoyed the meal. Li Mazi gave a thumbs-up. The Japanese waiterswerenice. I felt likea god.


    Japanese people are really interesting. Mostrestaurantshave small games like this, so foreign tourists can y and enjoy the meals at the same time, Xiao Gao exined.


    Will you stay here after you graduate? I asked him.


    Im studying ancient architecture. I n to return to our country once Im finished. Xiao Gao smiled gently.


    Why did youe to Japan to study ancient architecture?


    Kyoto has many structures built in thestyle of theTang Dynasty, and they are very well-preserved. We cant find any Tang Dynasty structures in our country anymore, so its necessary toe here to study. The famous architect Liang Sicheng alsostudiedancient architecture in Japan, exined Xiao Gao.


    I admired hisambition. After lunch, Yin Xinyue and Ru Xue wanted to go shopping around Osaka. Of course, Li Mazi and Ifollowedthem.


    I felt a little sorry forChuyi, though.He didnt talkand carriedthe sword on his back the whole time. He didnt look like he was from the same worldasus.


    Japanese schoolgirls often stopped when they saw him. They shrieked, Kawaii!and took selfieswith him. The girls in this country were livelier than in China.


    We walked around the mall for a while. Afterward, Yin Xinyue and Ru Xue went to a shop to check outtheclothes, while the rest of usfound a cafand rested there.


    If you want to go tothatkind of ceat night, I canbring you there, said Xiao Gao.


    What kind of ceare you talking about?


    Japanesesocialclubs.They are simr to the nightclubs inMaind China. Most of the male tourists like to visit those ces. However, they are the sort of ces that require membership. You need to be introduced to get there. Xiao Gao took a sip of coffee.


    I gave him a wry smile. Dont you see that were here with our wives? Do you want us to kneel on the ground and wait for punishmentwhenwegoback?


    Nah, its all right. I can help you fabricateanexcuse. Xiao Gao smiled. I thought thatthis kidreally knew how to fawn over people.


    WhileI felt a littleconflicted,Li Mazi asked with avulgarsmile, Xiao Gao, what fun activitiesare therein those clubs?


    In the end, we agreed to visit one of the mildestclubsto widen our knowledge.


    As I was also curious,I told Chuyi, Its a rare chance to travel, you shoulewith us.


    Im a Daoist priest. How could I go there? Chuyi shot me a cold nce.


    Xiao Gao said,Brother, we can go there to drink and talk. You wont vite your rule.


    Chuyi hesitated then nodded. After dinner, the four of us excused ourselves, tellingthe girls that we were going to Osaka Comic City. Then, we took a taxi to go to asocial club. Thevish but debauched atmospherewas hardto adapt to.


    Soon, a middle-aged womanwearing a kimono came over and greetedus with a deep bow. Then, she turned to talk to Xiao Gao. It seemed they were close.


    I found a spot and ordered drinks and some snacks. Soon, four young women wearing sexy dresses came to us. Theygreeted us with a bowasXiao Gao introduced them to us. They then parted and settlednext to us.They pulledour armsandstarted to chat.


    I wasa littleoverwhelmedbythis situation.Chuyi, who wasnext to me, closed his eyes anddirectly enteredameditativestate.


    Li Maziquicklyfound the right tempo. He even used the travel guidebook to talktothe Japanese hostesses. I admired his boldness for having funevenwith thenguage barrier.


    After a few sses of champagne, Li Mazi became more shameless. He learned from the othercustomersand foldeda ten-thousand-yen bill, shoving itinto the girls cleavage. The girl poutedand poundedon his chest. I looked at hisvulgar,smiling faceand thought of taking a phototo show Ru Xue. I was sure it would earn hima harshpunishmentter.


    Xiao Gao was also having fun with those hot girls. I nowunderstoodwhy he brought us here. This ce was high-end and expensive, andXiao Gao was just a poor student. Thatwaswhy he tried his best to promote the ce to his customers. With that, he could also reap some benefits.


    I satnext toChuyi, feeling ratherawkward. We didnt even drink the juice we had ordered.As we didnt talk to them, thetwo women that were sitting with us moved to Li Mazi and Xiao Gao.


    I somewhatregretteinghereand wastingmoney. I turned andsaid toChuyi, Do you want to go outand getsome fresh air?


    Sure.Chuyistood up, before suddenlygazingin a direction.


    Sitting on the sofa opposite us was a chubby, bald, middle-aged uncle, who looked like a warlord inananti-Japanese soap opera. He was drinking with two hostesses. The women sat on both sides,ughingflirtatiously.


    A young man wearing white clothes was sitting on his right. He looked around eighteen or neen years old. He hadfair-skin andfeminine features. He was holding a big bucket of popcornand eatingto his hearts content.


    Whats wrong? I asked. Chuyis strange look had piqued my interest.


    Monster aura, Chuyi answered.That young man in white isnt human!
