However, there was no fluctuation coming from Noriko Shimizu, only deathly silence. At first glance, she seemed to be a completely ordinary person.

Xing Jianyao was silent.

Was her sixth sense wrong? It was such a coincidence, and no matter how she thought about it, it seemed wrong. But in the end, it was all her delusion. The split reality made her unable to believe it.

Since there is no problem in person, we can only rely on the power of God to find the answer!

The last time he used his divine power was against Watanabe Tetsuya, a week ago. At that time, Hoshimi Haruka was attacked back and suffered a great loss. The suffering he endured was something he had never experienced in more than 20 years, so much so that he still has lingering fears...

But she can't not use this ability in the future, and now it has come to the point where she has to use it. This is the last test for Shimizu Noriko. If she passes the test, Hoshimi Haruka will temporarily let down her guard against her.

There is definitely no time tonight. Tomorrow, Brother Toru and the others might go to Matsumoto Hitomi's funeral, which would be a good time.

What he was thinking in his heart was just a fleeting thought. Xing Jianyao just kept smiling after speaking without any expression.

But when Noriko heard the female singer and big star addressing her husband, her alarm bells went off. She did not look at Watanabe to put pressure on him, nor did she act sarcastic. He warmly welcomed her to sit down first, and then asked in a very normal way:

"Hoshimi...Miko-sama? Or should I call you Miss Hoshimi?"

"Noriko-sister, there's no need to be so respectful and troublesome. It makes it seem like our relationship is very distant. Noriko-sister, just call me Xiaoyao like Toru-niang. "

"Ohhh~! Xiaoyao..."

It would be fine if Hoshimi Haruka didn't speak, but once she spoke, it was a critical blow to Shimizu Noriko, which made Watanabe Toru's heart skip a beat. Even Saotome Hazuki was still frightened, fearing that the other party's words would make Noriko angry.

But this is actually the greatest degree of tolerance. The existence of Haruka Hoshimi cannot be concealed. Watanabe will have to follow them back to [Amami-naka-cho] in more than a month. He can't just leave Noriko alone in Tokyo. So some things about Watanabe's past that he was reluctant to reveal have now had to be revealed.

Watanabe Tetsuya, the person involved, is now extremely regretful. He shouldn't have kept his mouth shut in the beginning. Even if he had said something ambiguous about the years and history books, he could still have fooled people. But now he is completely trapped...

Obviously, Noriko was also surprised that her husband Watanabe and the female singer Hoshimi Haruka used such intimate terms with each other, but it made sense when she thought about it carefully.

It is impossible to say that she is not jealous, but the generous and virtuous Watanabe Noriko would never doubt or even accuse her beloved Tetsuya-kun without any reason.

She asked Hoshimi Haruka: "Xiaoyao was just like Tetsuya-kun. They originally lived together in an orphanage, and later went to that... that Hidaka Shrine to become shrine maidens?

"I remember Tetsuya-kun once told me that when he lived in an orphanage, he grew up with several sisters..."

"Unfortunately I'm not one of them. I'm going to the shrine first with my brother Beecher."

“Oh, I see…”

Watanabe Noriko didn't ask any more questions, for fear of embarrassing Hoshimi Haruka, but at least the current situation matched what Tetsuya said.

He previously said that he was not familiar with Hoshimi Haruka and was surprised that the other party could remember him.

This was actually not surprising in the eyes of Noriko Shimizu. After so many years, she had personally experienced the charm of her husband Tetsuya and his attraction to women.

"Here, Sister Kiko~" Hoshimi Haruka handed the prepared gift to Kiko Shimizu and said:

"This is the red magatama necklace I wore when I was a child. I gave it to the child of sister Noriko and brother Toru."

When she heard that it was the personal item that Haruka Hoshimi wore when she was a child, Noriko Watanabe frowned subconsciously and wanted to refuse.

But Jiko's eyes could not help but be attracted by the red magatama necklace. The braided rope was made of some thin string of unknown material, and the color was dark. At the bottom was a red magatama the size of half a thumb, bright red and moist, like naturally formed agate amber, and the inside was transparent, reflecting the changes in the Sanghai over thousands of years.

Anyone who saw this necklace for the first time, once they cast their first glance, felt as if they were being pulled into a black hole. It was extremely difficult to get rid of the desire that arose from the depths of their hearts.

Not only Saotome Hazuki was mesmerized, but Shimizu Noriko was no exception. She opened her mouth to say no but the words were stuck and she couldn't utter them.

As for the reason, it wasn't just that she was shocked when she saw the red magatama necklace for the first time. For Noriko Shimizu, it was actually an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if she had once had the same red magatama necklace...

When Watanabe Toru saw the gift prepared by Hoshimi Haruka, his heart skipped a beat. No wonder she didn't want to say it, it seemed like she had really prepared a big one!

He glanced at Noriko and Saotome who were staring blankly, reached out and held his newlywed wife's hand, and then spoke to wake them up:

"Such a gift is too valuable, you should keep it for yourself, Miko!

"After all, this is an artifact passed down from the shrine, and it should be passed down to future shrine maidens, generation after generation..."

"And the unborn baby, still in the womb and less than two months old, isn't even a daughter of the shrine... How can she receive such a great gift?"

That's right, the red magatama necklace that Hoshimi Haruka prepared for the fetus in Kiko's belly was passed down from generation to generation by the shrine maidens. Accepting this gift does not mean that you will be the next shrine maiden, but you will definitely be forced to be brought into the Hidaka Shrine.

If you are a girl, it's not so bad. If you can't become a shrine maiden, you can still be a priestess. You can go with the flow and fall into the dye vat and be polluted, or be a pure stream and just loyally serve the lord, the shrine maidens and the gods. But for men, there is only one way, which is to be trapped and locked in the courtyard on the mountainside, waiting to be squeezed dry by those priestesses!

How could Toru Watanabe sit back and watch his child being pushed into the fire?

For the first time, an uncontrollable murderous intent burst out from Watanabe Tetsuya's eyes. He stared at Hoshimi Haruka quietly, making her tremble all over.

Watanabe really couldn't understand it. It was OK that these evil women had a strong desire to possess and control him, but why did they do the same to their own children...? ?

Everyone can't wait to be a "young mother", right?

Seeing Hoshimi Haruka using the red magatama necklace she had worn for six thousand years as a gift for the unborn baby, Watanabe Tetsuya was really scared. He was really afraid that Hoshimi Haruka would touch Noriko's belly in the next moment, and then mutter something mysterious like "This child in the belly is destined to be with me"...

If something like that really happened, and Hoshimi Haruka dared to say or do that, she wouldn't even spare a newborn baby... Watanabe Toru wouldn't mind letting her try out the sharpness of his knife, the hardness of his arms and elbows...

Facing her brother Che's cold eyes, Xing Jianyao could only respond with a reassuring smile and look, signaling her brother Che to relax and that she did not have any extreme thoughts.

Perhaps because this was his home, or perhaps because Noriko was by his side, Hoshimi Haruka found that brother Toru was very easy to coax and comfort this time.

After Watanabe's reminder, Kiko and Saotome also came back to their senses one after another. The latter's fox eyes glanced at the red magatama necklace from time to time, which did not escape Hoshimi Haruka's eyes.

Noriko and her husband Tetsuya were on the same side. After listening to the man's description, she realized that the necklace had a very important origin, so she couldn't accept it. She waved her hand firmly to refuse, saying that she was flattered by such an expensive gift.

"Since it's a necklace that has been passed down in an orderly manner, the Hoshimi Miko... Xiaoyao should keep it for yourself. It would be best if you could give it to your children in the future!" Unlike Watanabe who was so straightforward, Kiko declined tactfully.

Hoshimi Haruka was obviously unmoved and insisted, "Our shrine doesn't just have this one red magatama necklace, I have two on my hand alone.

"So please accept it, Sister Kiko! I'm sure I've already prepared that necklace for my daughter~!"

"Hoshimi..." Watanabe couldn't stand it anymore.

Noriko reached out and clasped her husband Tetsuya's hand, signaling him not to be impulsive. She racked her brains and finally uttered a sentence:

"Then... Xiaoyao can give birth to two children, a boy and a girl!

"So... wouldn't it be one red magatama necklace for each of us?"

"Haha, Sister Noriko is really good at joking~ Well... In that case, I'll keep it for now and wait until Sister Noriko and Brother Toru's child is born."

Realizing that if she continued like this, her brother Toru would really be angry, Hoshimi Haruka decided to quit while she was ahead. Unfortunately, she was caught by Saotome before she could retract her tail, and she played with it in her hands.

"Miko-sama, please don't be so partial. You are willing to give such an expensive gift to Noriko's child, and there are also two necklaces...

"How about giving the second red magatama necklace to my child? I'm also preparing to have a baby recently~"

A poisonous snake lurking in the dark... No, it's not really a poisonous snake. It's not poisonous at all, and its lurking is also open and aboveboard... Anyway, the Saotome Lion opened his mouth wide and came clinging to me shamelessly.

Hoshimi Haruka was almost vomited by her, and she didn't give her a good look, in order to prevent Saotome from getting mad again: "My red magatama necklace is for Brother Toru's child...

"How come my Miss Saotome, your child is also?"

Saotome's expression changed immediately. She didn't dare to look around to see Kiko's reaction. She just said seriously: "See you! Kiko is my best friend, my best friend...

"Teacher Watanabe is also your brother, and Noriko-chan is still your sister-in-law... Stop making jokes like this."

Without paying any more attention to Saotome, Hoshimi Haruka apologized to the Watanabe couple and seemed quite sincere, but after this series of actions, Kyoko seemed to no longer believe it.

However, one should not hit a smiling person. This big star was the first time to visit her. Even if Kiko felt uncomfortable, she had to endure it. She could only pray in her heart that she and Tetsuya-kun would leave her and their home as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, Hoshimi Haruka was just as reckless as Ye Yue, chatting about meaningless things. More than ten minutes had passed and she still didn't show any intention of leaving. Kyoko's stomach was growling with hunger.

"Has everyone had dinner? How about we have dinner together?

"I woke up too late from my nap this afternoon, and it was Tetsuya-kun who woke me up after he came back. I was planning to cook, but in the end I didn't get anything done. I'm really ashamed..."

Things have come to this point, and Jiko has given up the idea of ​​chasing them away. She is really hungry and wants to eat something to replenish her energy.

"Kiko, you haven't had dinner yet? How is this possible? Kiko, please sit still. It's not convenient when you're pregnant. I'll do it..." Saotome volunteered.

Her eager expression and behavior did not seem to be fake. Watanabe, who was very familiar with her, could see it at a glance. His impression of her improved a little and he was no longer so disgusted with her.

But Kiko couldn't help laughing and complained: "Is Yeyue's cooking level good enough now? This is a dish for four people~"

"Well... everything depends on human effort. I'll try."

"No! Stop developing dark dishes. I'll arrange for someone to make them. I guarantee they'll be delivered within an hour." Hoshimi Haruka directly denied Saotome's cooking skills and was determined not to allow her to cook to harm others.

The communication and interaction between the old woman Saotome and Shimizu Noriko were seen by Hoshimi Haruka. How could she not be envious?

Thinking about it carefully, she had almost no girls of the same age as her friends since she was a child. The only two girls she had always been with were the Asahina sisters, who were connected through the bond of brother Toru.

And their sisters had already been in a state of neither life nor death because of themselves, and lived like that...

Chapter 291: Kiko plans to go to [Amenaka Town] to take care of her pregnancy

How much resentment could Haruka Hoshimi have towards the Asahina sisters, especially Asahina Yuna?

Not much, actually.

At that time, Brother Toru had already been in the possession of her and her aunt Hidaka Mari. Almost every other night, it was her turn to enjoy him, to lie on his broad and strong chest, and use him as a cushion to sleep...

Even though Brother Toru is more caring towards the Asahina sisters, Hoshimi Haruka is a little jealous and likes to target Asahina Yuna. She forces a few uneducated and bad hot girls to bully her in the girls' school. Her purpose is just to force Asahina Yuna to retreat and beg for mercy. She wants her to realize the gap between them and stop sticking to Brother Toru all the time. It really won't cost her life.

However, Asahina Yuna was too stubborn. Perhaps she was deeply influenced by her brother Watanabe. She had never learned the traditional island skill of bowing to apologize, let alone kneeling down. Hoshimi Haruka had never seen her bow her head once. She was furious and did not intend to let her go easily. Otherwise, where would she put her face? So the stalemate between them continued...

At that time, Hoshimi Haruka had thought about giving up, but when she saw Asahina Yuna's steadfast and sharp eyes and straight figure, it was like a sword drawn from its sheath, shining brightly, and it hurt her eyes.

Hoshimi Haruka sincerely envied Asahina Yuna.

As time went by, they competed against each other in front of Brother Che, and neither of them was willing to give in; in private, one of them bullied the other unilaterally, while the other just gritted her teeth and endured it silently, and even ridiculed and provoked her from time to time.

In Hoshimi Haruka's eyes, she felt that she and Asahina Yuna had become friends in a sense.

Just like Hoshimi Haruka also thought that Watanabe would be very comfortable and enjoy it, she just thought so and did not consider the other person's opinion at all.

Until the end, the Asahina sisters were sacrificed by their aunt, and their remaining consciousness was sealed in their own bodies. Hoshimi Haruka gained great benefits from this, and then she reshaped her personality again and became the current "Hoshimi Haruka"...

Sighing in her heart that she had no friends, or strictly speaking, she had become one with the people she thought of as her friends, Hoshimi Haruka raised her eyes to see the woman sitting opposite her with a dignified and elegant posture and a gentle smile. She was her brother Toru's newlywed wife, Shimizu Noriko.

From a cursory survey of Noriko Shimizu, I have the impression that she has very few, or no, real good friends.

From what we learned from Haruka Hoshimi, we can find that Noriko Shimizu only had female friends for a period of time, and if we exclude her brother Toru, she has never had any male friends.

Friends from junior high and high school were only in touch during that period because their contact information was lost in a fire in their room?

It's very suspicious just by looking at it...

During her college years, because of the presence of her brother Toru, Shimizu Noriko did not deliberately make friends or attend social gatherings. The only friends she had short-term friendships with were Horiguchi Rika and Momozawa Mitsue.

The latter was killed by Matsumoto Hitomi and Yanagihara Nao, so Matsumoto Hitomi paid the price she deserved.

Look, aren’t Saotome and the others going to attend Matsumoto Hitomi’s funeral tomorrow?

As for Horiguchi Rika... according to what Haruka Hoshimi heard, she was ordered by Tsukimiri herself to find her hiding place after a thorough investigation. She has now been sent to Tsukimiri's presence. Based on Haruka Hoshimi's understanding of Tsukimiri, Horiguchi Rika will not be able to escape a fate worse than death.
