This Japanese Monogatari Isn't Lame

Chapter 394: Haunted House (8000-word goal achieved!)_2


Hmm...

Uh...

Beichuan Lin was holding the business card, took out her phone, and searched for "Beichuan Divine Society."

A large organization with a permanent following of 30,000 believers... currently led by Great Ming Guangde Master in social welfare and relief activities...

There were also pictures on the website.

In the photos, despite the makeup, one could still recognize the face of Qiuxiao Yunai in Great Ming Guangde Master.

But... these things were not what Beichuan Lin cared about.

What she cared about most was—

"Beichuan Divine Society...?" Beichuan Lin tilted her head towards Qiuxiao Yunai and tentatively asked, "That... Miss Qiuxiao, the 'Beichuan' in Beichuan Divine Society wouldn't happen to be..."

Qiuxiao Yunai smiled affirmatively, confirming Beichuan Lin's thought, "Yes! It's the Beichuan from Beichuan Si."

"And what about this Beichuan God...?" Beichuan Lin pointed at her phone screen.

"Beichuan God is Beichuan Si," stated Qiuxiao Yunai confidently.

Hmm. Alright.

Beichuan Lin held her phone.

At this point, there was no need to be surprised anymore. After all, the Police Chief from the Police Headquarters had shown up, so what was one more identity like the Beichuan God for Beichuan Si?

Yes, Beichuan Lin could no longer be surprised.

No longer could be—

As if!

"How did my young son become a religious leader?!" Beichuan Lin couldn't hold it in any longer.

He was just a high school student!

You said Nakajima Michika was living in my house, Gangye Yoshiko is a Police Chief... all these were still within her comprehension!

But why has Beichuan Si... suddenly turned her son into a religious leader?

What situation was this?

Seeing Beichuan Lin's difficulty in accepting it, Gangye Yoshiko next to her comforted her in a timely manner, "Please rest assured, Ms. Beichuan, Beichuan Divine Society is certainly not some shady organization. They mainly carry out social welfare activities and are strictly considered similar to organizations like the Red Cross."

"...Since Miss Gangye says so."

Beichuan Lin could only nod.

Next came Shen Gu Mirai and the girl in a plaid uniform.

"Let's not talk about Mirai for now. The girl next to her is named Shan Yuanmu Yuzi," Beichuan Si approached Beichuan Lin and volunteered to introduce her.

Shan Yuan.

That was another familiar surname.

Though Beichuan Lin tried very hard to not think that way, she still couldn't stop her somewhat chaotic thoughts.

Seeing her struggle, Beichuan Si also confirmed Beichuan Lin's thoughts, "It's exactly the Shan Yuan you're thinking of, the daughter of a political party leader who has a place in the Tokyo political scene."

Alright, alright.

By this time, no matter what happened, it could no longer surprise her.

On the other side, Shan Yuanmu Yuzi, hearing Beichuan Si introducing her, intelligently stepped forward, her voice gentle, "My father has always wanted to meet Auntie Beichuan, saying that a woman who could raise such an outstanding son like Mr. Beichuan must be exceptional."

At this statement, Beichuan Lin was at a loss for words.

She was just a middle-aged woman you could find anywhere, yet before they even met, she had already been bestowed such high expectations by Shan Yuanmu, often seen on TV...

The root of all this came from Beichuan Si next to her.

She had returned to Japan for a month over the New Year and only left on the last day of January.

Now it was late May; if you really counted it, it had only been four months.

She honestly had no idea what had happened during this period.

In just four months, Beichuan Si had made a group of extraordinary friends.

No wonder Beichuan Huili had said Beichuan Si could earn millions of yen a month.

With such a group of friends, it would indeed be strange not to earn millions.

Lastly... there was one more person left.

Shen Gu Mirai.

For this little girl, Beichuan Lin's first impression was the best.

She really liked such a young girl eager to help others.

With already having a Police Chief, a party leader's daughter, and a religious organization leader with over 30,000 permanent followers in the background.

Even if Shen Gu Mirai had some astonishing identity... Beichuan Lin believed her heart could take it.

Noticing the change in Beichuan Lin's mindset, Beichuan Si began to introduce Shen Gu Mirai's identity:

"This is Shen Gu Mirai, my girlfriend, you've met her before. Her parents are university researchers of folklore."

At this point, Beichuan Si stopped.

Beichuan Lin waited a long time, but didn't hear Beichuan Si continue.

So she looked at Beichuan Si with a puzzled face, "Is that it?"

"That's it," nodded Beichuan Si.

"...Over?"

Mr. Beichuan asked again.

"Yes," Beichuan Si confirmed her thoughts.

Yes????

Beichuan Lin's mouth hung open.

She had already prepared herself.

For instance, Shen Gu Mirai might be the sole heir of some consortium.

And that was it? Just over?

Honestly, Shen Gu Mirai's family background might be much better than average.

But compared to Gangye Yoshiko, Shan Yuanmu Yuzi, Nakajima Michika, Qiuxiao Yunai...

It was just too plain, wasn't it?!

Earlier, Beichuan Lin wasn't prepared and was caught off guard by Beichuan Si's brief introduction.

Now that she was prepared, was it just going to be this ordinary?

It left Beichuan Lin feeling like she was punching the air.

Just as she was pondering, Shen Gu Mirai walked up.

Her face slightly flushed, she took Beichuan Si's hand and introduced herself, "Hello, mom... Auntie Beichuan, I'm Beichuan... Shen Gu Mirai. Please take good care of me in the future."

Polite, sensible, and also smart.

Beichuan Lin's expression softened.

She thought of the time Shen Gu Mirai had enthusiastically taken her around the Kyubei Festival.

Compared to those girls who had been too much for her heart.

This simple and ordinary daughter-in-law... suddenly felt very real.

And her parents were university scholars.

That was indeed a family of scholars.

No wonder she was so polite.

Thinking this, Beichuan Lin reached out to shake hands with Shen Gu Mirai, saying warmly,

"...please take good care of me, Miss Shen Gu."

...

After this round of introductions, Beichuan Si's basics were almost all revealed.

But actually, that wasn't a bad thing.

Beichuan Lin's capacity for acceptance was beyond ordinary; she just zoned out for a bit, then returned to normal.

She could still engage in conversation and was extremely adept at dealing with people.

No wonder she dared to work alone in Paris—with her ability to quickly build relationships, no one could refuse her.

After that, Qianye Yuki and her sister Qianye Cang were also introduced by Beichuan Huili.

Qianye Yuki was Beichuan Huili's art teacher and naturally merited a special introduction.

And Beichuan Lin also recalled Qianye Yuki, the emerging artist who had held several exhibitions in Europe, but after the previous bombarding introductions like "Police Chief" and "Party Leader," Beichuan Lin actually found the artist Qianye Yuki somewhat plain.

Where gratitude was due, it was sincerely given; where one could relax, they relaxed.

Beichuan Lin had completely adapted.

During this time, with Beichuan Huili, the little ray of sunshine lifting the mood, all the introductions were finally concluded.

It seemed Beichuan Si could be completely at ease now.

Because at this point, there was really nothing left to worry about.

However—

Beichuan Si glanced meaningfully toward the teaching building.

The Class 2A haunted house activity... he wondered how Magong Yongshi and the others were doing.

He had been feeling restless from a while back; could something have happened?

Beichuan Si shook his head.

At times like this, it was necessary to have some faith in Magong Yongshi and her group.

Outside the Class 2A haunted house, a woman dressed as a teacher appeared.

Upon seeing her, the male student sitting at the cashier's stood up, exclaiming:

"Teacher Qianhe?!"

"Miyashita, is the haunted house empty right now?"

Qianhe Kagura turned to look at the haunted house and asked.

"It's empty."

"Is it...?" Qianhe Kagura's heart raced.

She had just heard someone mention that Beichuan Si had left the haunted house, leaving his friend inside to play the ghost.

His friend?

Qianhe Kagura was here today to see what kind of person Beichuan Si's friend really was.
