Chapter 684: Chapter 682: Family_1 Chapter 684: Chapter 682: Family_1 âActually, I havenât been here for very long either.â
Even though Su Gao didnât know what kind of things Mr. Fu Qian mentioned the lady liked to do, she clearly wasnât going to refuse Mr. Fu Qianâs suggestion.
As they continued their walk, Mr. Fu Qian rambled on while they moved along.
âBut in my memory, this place, Xidao, still has a legendary story.â
âWhat story?â
Su Gao asked cooperatively.
âItâs about a heroic figure. Basically, one day, a mountain flood broke out, and to protect the downstream village, the brave Bananachi jumped into the water, using his proud muscles to hold back the floodwaters, saving many people. In the end, he was widely celebrated.â
âThatâs got to be fakeâŠâ
It was rare to see Su Gao show an incredulous expression, even though it was on a different face.
Witnessing this, Mr. Fu Qian felt a sudden understanding for her âfairy-tale geniusâ mother.
Back in the day when in a desperate situation, she must have amused herself with such nonsense while watching her daughterâs reactions.
âHowever, even though itâs not real, itâs at least a benevolent story.â
It seemed Su Gao had similar thoughts, as she didnât wait for Mr. Fu Qian to say anything, She began to speak to herself, as if lost in some distant reverie.
âŠ
âIs this the place?â
Sometime later, Su Gao looked at the Fortune Tellerâs Cottage in front of her and turned to confirm with Mr. Fu Qian.
âYes, isnât fortune-telling always a hobby of ladies?â
Mr. Fu Qian gestured with his hand, indicating she should go in.
âInside is a fortune teller whoâs quite good at reading people, but not very outstanding.â
âMr. Darcy, long time no see.â
Within the Fortune Tellerâs Cottage, the lighting was always dim.
Dressed in a dark robe, Kisaragi Chie sat there, and upon clearly seeing the two guests who entered, greeted Mr. Fu Qian first.
âLong time no see.â
Mr. Fu Qian responded while gesturing for Su Gao to take a seat across from Kisaragi Chie.
âIs the lady here for a reading today? What a pleasure!â
Kisaragi Chie assessed Su Gao with the practiced gaze of a fortuneteller.
âYes, Violetta.â
Mr. Fu Qian introduced her from the side and then turned towards Su Gao.
âKisaragi Chie.â
âPleased to meet you.â
Su Gao greeted her very politely.
âIâm pleased as well. What would you like to ask?â
Kisaragi Chie responded with a smile.
âI want to know if⊠my holiday will go smoothly.â
Even though Su Gao had just learned she would be getting a reading, she spoke almost without hesitation, as if it was a wish sheâd contemplated for a long time.
âUnderstood.â
Kisaragi Chie nodded, reaching behind her to pull out a deck of cards.
Quickly, following Kisaragi Chieâs instructions, Su Gao expertly shuffled and cut the deck, finally placing it back in front of her.
However, after picking up a card, Kisaragi Chie looked at Su Gao and seemed to ponder for a moment.
âIt seems things will go well, but you might still need to be wary of some external dangers. Be cautious at all times.â
Finally, the fortuneteller spoke after a long pause.
Donât look at me, why are you getting a reading and then staring at me? Am I that hidden danger youâre talking about?
Mr. Fu Qian was already internally grumbling to himself at this point.
To understand Kisaragi Chieâs words wasnât difficult.
Last time we met, he was observant and firmly believed he had no intentions of harming Kagetsu Kana.
But that was only relevant to the situation at the time; he was not completely unaware of his own past actions.
And such an âignorant girl,â if she were to mix with him and forcibly claim that everything was going smoothly, probably couldnât say so.
This was the downside of being observant; had he focused solely on interpreting the fortune-telling results, he wouldnât have been so hesitant.
Second-rate, one could say that Kisaragi Chie indeed knew herself well.
âThank you!â
Facing Kisaragi Chieâs interpretation, Su Gao didnât continue to inquire.
At that moment, footsteps approached from behind, and the next second light shone in from outside as two shadows entered the door, one after the other.
âSorry, I didnât realize there were guests.â
A somewhat familiar voice sounded first, and the next moment, the person who spoke paused upon getting a clear view of Fu Qian and his companion.
She had a good figure, fair skin, and features similar to Kisaragi Chieâs, but noticeably more refinedâit was Kagetsu Kana.
Whether it was the shock from the Miracle Elixir incident or not, compared to the last time they met, she no longer had the same radiance, and her overall style had become much more subdued.
Unexpectedly, the person following her was also an acquaintanceâTakagi.
This neighbor, who was crazily infatuated with her and even created a secret space especially for her, was now genuinely standing by her side, appearing quite affectionate.
There was an inexplicable feeling that lovers had finally come together, living a happy and contented life.
Fu Qian reflected for a moment, then said with a smile.
âItâs fine, we had just finished anyway.â
âMr. Darcy, long time no see.â
Kagetsu Kanaâs expression was slightly complex, but she quickly adjusted and took the initiative to greet him.
As for Brother Takagi, he appeared visibly nervous, swallowing involuntarily.
Clearly, he was familiar with and had a deep impression of Darcy Crawford.
âWho is this?â
After greeting Fu Qian, Kagetsu Kanaâs gaze, however, was mostly locked on Su Gaoâs face.
âVioletta, here for a vacation.â
Fu Qian introduced succinctly.
âTakagi is now Kanaâs boyfriend,â
Kisaragi Chie, sitting inside, also introduced to Fu Qian and his companion.
Understood.
Kisaragi Chie emphasized the term boyfriend, clearly indicating that after her sister had been hit hard, she had undergone a complete transformation and was now focusing on nurturing a relationship.
In fact, it was still early, and the two coming back together from outside easily suggested they might already be living together.
From this perspective, his plan Jane 9527 seemed not to have yielded anything of value.
Although the observation subject was safe and sound within the short safety zone he had designed, it also appeared that he had directly turned over a new leaf.
But was it really so?
âŠ
Kagetsu Kana had come back to retrieve something, and after a brief and uninformative exchange, she soon left; Fu Qian and his companion also took their leave shortly after.
âOne really shouldnât be blindly optimistic,â
Fu Qian sighed as they left the Fortune Tellerâs Cottage.
âThat Kagetsu Kana is somewhat special, is she the subject you were talking about?â
Su Gao said from beside him.
âThatâs right, she once experienced resurrection,â
Fu Qian did not hide what had happened to Kagetsu Kana.
âAs an ordinary person, not only did she die at the time, but she was also eviscerated, with parts of her organs removed. However, after I replenished them, she still came back to life.â
âThat is indeed strange,â
Su Gao listened very attentively and then furrowed her brows in thought.
âResurrection is something Iâve only heard about in certain unverified rumors; up to now, Iâve never encountered anyone who could do that.â
