"Hmm, I want to watch both the premiere and the recording of my favorite animation, right? Of course, I also have to buy the Blu-ray disc!"
When Erina said this, she couldn't help but rub her hands excitedly.
"Finally, I can go directly to the video store to choose the discs I like! After all, the best experience is to be surrounded by a sea of discs in a physical store! Online shopping on Amazon is no fun at all!"
"Yes." Yoshiyuki smiled and served the eldest lady rice bowl and miso soup. He also put a lot of her favorite clam meat in the eldest lady's bowl and picked up all the shells.
As for his own bowl, he was not so particular, the shells were still lying inside.
This miso soup was made by Yoshiyuki himself instead of the convenience soup cubes from the supermarket - because he was the only one who could make the taste that the picky eater would like.
The cooking method of this soup is very complicated.
There are nine kinds of ingredients alone: snapper, kelp, tofu, shimeji mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, bean sprouts, oyster mushrooms, green shrimps and green beans.
You also need to make stock from fish bones in advance.
"Whew...it tastes good!" Erina took a sip and breathed out comfortably: "Oh...just take one sip and the fatigue of traveling will disappear immediately!"
"Miss, you must have been sleeping in the car almost all the time. There is no reason to be tired."
"It's very tiring to sleep on such an uncomfortable seat, okay?" Erina snorted, then took a bite of the Zimudon, her face turned slightly red again because of the delicious food: "Uh, uh... This , this...um...!"
"Miss, please don't make strange noises while eating."
Yoshiyuki complained like this and slightly shifted his attention to the animation that the eldest lady was watching.
It tells the story of a group of magical girls who no longer need to fight due to the sudden disappearance of monsters and start living a happy daily life every day.
"Now, Yi Xing."
"Um?"
"You said, if the Gate of Underworld disappears, will there be no need for the Underworld Miko? I, my future successors, and even the entire Yida family will be liberated."
"...Hmm." Yi Xing couldn't help but fell into silence when she heard her mention this.
He felt that the Gate of Hell was essentially a seal that stabilized the balance between the human world and the underworld and cut off the connection.
Once the Gate of Hell disappears, it may only bring disaster.
The main reason why ghosts in the eternal world can only be seen occasionally is because the seals of Erina and the Yida family are suppressing the invasion of Hades Izanami.
Both are indispensable.
But the Underworld Miko is the most important one.
The Great Seal of the Yida family was kept stable due to the existence of the Underworld Miko, but its power continued to weaken over time.
One day, it will be broken through, and only Erina will be able to close the Gate of Underworld again.
This is also the reason why the Yida family has kept Erina under house arrest.
Most members of the Yida family feel that this is the only way to protect her, and Erina's own feelings are not important.
Therefore, Yoshiyuki can completely imagine how angry the Yitian clan members were when they heard that the eldest lady had taken him away from home.
He couldn't help but complain to Erina like this.
"Miss, I guess there are still people over there petitioning the head of the family, demanding that we be captured."
"Huh, grandpa won't agree! Since he has agreed, he will never change his mind." Erina said with an indifferent expression: "And even if he goes back on his word, I won't admit it. Even if he can't... Even if I go to school in Tokyo, I will not just go back to the village to live! If they dare to force me, I will stay far away! Who was the anxious one when I saw them?"
Just when Yoshiyuki wanted to take over the conversation, the doorbell suddenly rang.
"Hey? Who could it be?" Erina looked confused and stopped holding the spoon she was about to put to her mouth: "Could it be that we didn't take the initiative to say hello to the neighbors after we moved here, so they took the initiative to come to us? ?”
What the eldest lady mentioned is one of the traditional Japanese customs: if you move to a place for a long time, you need to greet your neighbors and give them small gifts. The other party usually gives something back.
But in recent years, more and more people feel that these rules are too cumbersome and therefore do not obey them, especially in a bustling metropolis like Tokyo.
"It's unlikely. This kind of apartment is basically occupied by tenants, and they don't need to greet their neighbors by default. So they shouldn't come to visit us." Yoshiyuki wiped his mouth: "I'll go take a look. Miss, just keep eating."
Although he said this, Erina was still curious, so she still chose to follow him to the door.
He looked at the peephole and found a ruthless man wearing sunglasses standing outside.
Male, with a straight build, looking to be in his early thirties.
He was wearing a suit and the little finger of his left hand was missing part of it. He was holding a gift box in his hand.
"Who is it?" the eldest lady asked Xiang Yixing in a low voice.
"It should be from the Dao. A section of his little finger was chopped off, and he is still wearing a suit. This kind of feature is basically only seen on the Yakuza members." He frowned and replied in a low voice: "I didn't know he was looking for us. What's the matter, but I'm holding a gift box, maybe it's a new one, and you want to say hello to us... Anyway, let me handle it, Miss, please don't say anything."
"Oh...oh!" Erina seemed not to panic, but actually a little excited: "This is the first time I see a living member of the Yakuza! I have only seen them on the screen before! It will be very exciting!"
"The difference between your Yida family and the Jida family is really not that big..." Yoshiyuki couldn't help complaining: "Many family methods are quite terrifying, even the Jida family dare not compare!"
Feeling that if he didn't open the door, the brother opposite would become impatient, so Yoshiyuki opened the door and greeted him vigilantly.
"Hello, big brother. What's the matter?"
"Ah, hello! I am a member of the Kuroba team. Are you Mr. Yoshiyuki Maekawa and Miss Erina Yida? The eldest sister is too busy and has no time to come and meet you two in person, so she sent me to see where you live. Are you still satisfied?"
He bowed and said this with a serious face and an extremely respectful attitude.
"Do you two need anything else? If there is anything missing, we will send someone over right away."
After hearing this, Maekawa Yoshiyuki suddenly realized that this person was sent by the landlord.
So, he said that there was nothing missing. Therefore, the other party nodded and presented the gift box in his hand, saying that this was a little bit of my sister's kindness, please accept it.
Then he said goodbye and left. Yoshiyuki opened the gift box and saw that it was a high-end wagashi dessert. The colors are so colorful that it makes people’s fingers dazzle just by looking at them.
"Hey, Miss...the house your parents found for us is an asset of the Ji Dao? Do the Yida family have such wide connections here? From what the person just said, his boss has a very close relationship with your family."
When Yi Xing heard the man walking away, he couldn't help but ask this question.
