"Sawamura-san, you're here. It was so hard for me to find you..."
Ying Lili turned her head and found that it was a young wizard, who should be her cousin, who walked over quickly and said:
"The ceremony is about to begin, auntie, no, benefactor Sawamura asked me to take you there."
Looking at the monk who changed his words instantly and chanted the Buddha's name silently, Ying Lili remembered that today was her father's "funeral".
"But in this situation, how can I cry later..."
The corners of Ying Lili's mouth twitched a few times, then she sighed and said:
"I know, I'll be there right away."
Having said that, Eriri turned and walked down the pavilion, then quickly walked towards the venue where the funeral was held.
The mage who came to call for help also prepared to leave immediately after seeing this, but before leaving, he said to Luo Shu and others:
"Dear donors, please go to the ritual site in 15 minutes. I still have things to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Looking at the busy and busy mage who was leaving quickly, Luo Shu turned his head and looked at the many girls present, and then they all fell silent.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle, especially when people knew that 910 "himself" would be someone's wife in the future and would hold a wedding with many girls.
In the end, in order to avoid embarrassment, Luo Shu chose to speak out:
"No one can predict what will happen in the future. Maybe it's just like what Eriri said, it's just a misunderstanding."
"Anyway, let's prepare to attend the funeral first. After all, almost everyone who wants to attend the funeral will be here soon."
Hearing this, several girls looked at each other and said awkwardly:
"That's right."
"It must be some misunderstanding."
“The future you see may not be real.”
Looking at the many girls who started to deny, Zao Aye whispered:
"That's why I deliberately stopped my sister to prevent that future from coming!!"
"That's what I mean!" Zao Maye nodded, then suddenly felt something was wrong.
So you were actually planning to have the whole thing all to yourself, and that's why you kept stopping me?
Just when Zao Maya was shocked, Fujiwara Toyomi also said with a smile:
"That's true. With Xiao Yaye's intervention, the future may indeed change~"
"Yes, yes!!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha, Kizaru and Fujiwara Chika all responded in an unnatural manner.
Future changes?
In the future, Luo Shu will only have Zao Yaye as his wife?
The three girls thought about the clan contract they had signed and began to murmur in their hearts.
Just think about this kind of thing and you will know how 'reliable' it would be!
With all kinds of emotions, the group spent about ten minutes together in awkwardness, and then each of them went to the funeral venue.
Chapter 171 Small Circle
The white flowers that had been prepared long ago were placed on the flower stand in order of the queue. Luo Shu bowed slightly with a heavy face, then turned and walked towards the ceremony venue on the side.
During this period, Luo Shu caught a glimpse of many people holding cameras, with press cards hanging around their necks and wearing masks surrounding the flower stand to take pictures. In addition, there were many patrols responsible for maintaining public order.
“There are a lot more people…”
Luo Shu slowed down his pace and waited for a moment. He found that it was Kasumigaoka Utaha who caught up first and whispered:
"Just go. This kind of occasion is not suitable for gathering together."
Just at this moment, Luo Shu's hand seemed to touch something. He turned around and found that it was Kasumigaoka Utaha who handed him a mask.
"This is something I forgot to give you." Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was wearing a white mask, said in a solemn voice, "I have already solved the cameraman's memory, so hurry up and put it on."
"Why do I feel like I've forgotten something?"
Luo Shu quickly took the mask and put it on his face, then glanced at the white sign with white flowers piled below not far away, then looked at the stairs next to the sign where people kept walking up, and then muttered:
"There are so many people here... So we actually entered early?"
As Luo Shu spoke, he moved closer to the sign. When he got closer, the words "Leonard Spencer Robert Funeral Ceremony Ground" became particularly clear.
"It seems that because of the rumor that 'the crown prince of the Kingdom of Ardikia will attend the ceremony', many reporters and politicians came here temporarily. Fortunately, Sanyuan Temple has experience in large-scale funerals, so there were no major problems."
As Kasumigaoka Utaha spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Luo Shu:
"It seems that this responsibility lies with you, my Minister."
“God knows what those people who join in the fun are thinking.”
As he spoke, Luo Shu stepped onto the stairs, looked at the crowd in front of him, and immediately complained:
"It would be quite entertaining if Enigma raided here."
"If she wasn't stupid, she wouldn't have come today."
Kasumigaoka Utaha followed Luo Shu, while trying to avoid looking directly at the surrounding "patrol":
"Three teams of troops directly under the cabinet have arrived, and half of the heads of the twelve military families have arrived. In addition, some of the chaebols' tributes have also arrived at the scene~" "
"All told, there are at least fifteen people who can be considered heroes by the SDS, not including the direct troops that will arrive later to be responsible for the security of our Supreme Chancellor."
"Assuming that the greedy lady from the Hell Cult really intends to take action in this situation, I really can't imagine how she would escape after taking action."
Hearing this, Luo Shu glanced at Kasumigaoka Utaha, and as he walked into the venue, he said lightly:
"It will be enough to bring three demigods."
Kasumigaoka Utaha paused, then burst into laughter and said:
"You also know that we need three 'demigods'!"
After the words fell, Kasumigaoka Utaha followed Luo Shu and entered the ceremony venue together.
Because of the crowded flow of people, Kisara and Kato Megumi, who were traveling together, could only watch the two people walk into the venue and then wait silently for their turn.
"We were tricked. We were supposed to all go our separate ways, but that guy actually ran away?" Mu Geng, who was wearing a black mask, gritted his teeth and said in annoyance.
Kato Hui on the side smiled gently:
"Kasumigaoka-senpai is amazing. She was clearly behind us, but in the end, she appeared next to the chief."
Mu Geng snorted and said unhappily, "That guy is definitely giving mental suggestion to a group of people."
At this point, Kisara glanced at Zao Aya, who was still in the crowd and being held by Zao Maya, and couldn't help but feel comforted:
"Forget it. With her blocking the way, the woman who could grow and shrink just now couldn't get close to Luo Shu. In a sense, it can be considered a good thing."
Zao Maye was there as a representative of the Zao family, so although nominally attending the funeral, she was actually in charge of security outside the funeral, and bringing her 'younger' sister along was just a deliberate disguise.
So in this situation, Zao Maya naturally cannot let Aya, who is used as a "disguise prop", leave.
As for Kisara, compared to Kasumigaoka Utaha, it is obvious that Zao Aya, the reckless clay cat, is more dangerous and needs strong supervision.
Kisara-senpai is very good at controlling his emotions... Kato Megumi glanced at Kisara, then asked with a smile:
"Senior, are we going in?"
Kisara shook his head upon hearing this, then glanced in the direction of Zao Maya and said:
"No, I don't feel comfortable staying there. I'll just watch from the outside."
Hearing this, Kato Hui looked around and said, "Should we find a more open space?"
"Then let's look for it." As he said that, Kisara took Kato Megumi's hand and started walking towards the direction where the crowd was less crowded.
at the same time.
Funeral scene, right corner.
Luo Shu looked at the cushion on the ground, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly:
"Do people have to kneel down at funerals in island countries?"
"Yes, it is."
Although Kasumigaoka Utaha was wearing a mask, judging from the curve of her eyes, she was definitely laughing:
"The all-night ceremony that will follow will include a summary of his life, mourning, chanting, and burning incense... depending on the flow of people, it will probably take more than three hours... be mentally prepared."
"My feet won't get deformed from sitting like that, will they?" Luo Shu muttered, then sat down in the corner helplessly, and looked in the direction of the main seat.
At the position closest to the "body", Eriri, with a "sad look" on her face, was accompanying her mother and constantly bowing and thanking the guests.
As the widow and the hostess of the funeral, Sayuri Sawamura always pretended to be strong and greeted every relative with a smile that showed no flaws.
Luo Shu felt his scalp tingling just looking at the frequency of reception. Without even opening the chat interface within the God Group, he could already imagine how many complaints Ying Lili would make.
If the person was really dead, Ying Lili might be able to accept this high-intensity "work", but the person is not dead, and the corpse in the coffin is fake, which is a bit embarrassing.
Luo Shu, who had attended several funerals in his hometown, was a little shocked: "¨' Are funerals this troublesome no matter where they are?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha next to her whispered, "Ordinary people's funerals are still very simple, after all, they can't even afford to die."
Luo Shu was speechless, but what he was thinking about was the 'filial piety money' that the funeral company had voluntarily sent to him this month, which was much more than what they had sent last month.
When you think about it this way, ordinary people really can’t even afford to die.
While sighing, Luo Shu suddenly noticed that the crowd pouring in from the gate parted a little, as if they were making way for others.
Seeing this, Luo Shu raised his eyes slightly and looked towards the door. Not long after, he saw a bald and cold-hearted man leading a cold-hearted girl with black hair and wearing a school uniform into the funeral scene.
Luo Shu was shocked when he saw this, and couldn't help but take another look, thinking: Can I wear a JK school uniform at this funeral?
(Nord's) Seeing Luo Shu's unusual attention, Xia Zhiqiu next to him read the memory of the participant who recognized the person nearby, and immediately knew the identity of the person, and said:
"That is a branch of the Six Clan, currently considered one of the main branches, a member of the Shinomiya Zaibatsu."
"The one walking in front seems to be Shinomiya Huangguang, the eldest son of the Shinomiya family, the destined heir to the chaebol, and behind him is Shinomiya Kaguya, the youngest daughter of the Shinomiya family. They are here to participate in the funeral as representatives of the Shinomiya family."
"However, one participant expressed his suspicion that the Shinomiya family wanted to reach an agreement with the Kingdom of Aldikia to purchase medical equipment, so the next head of the family came in person. Otherwise, facing the death of the relative, the head of the Sawamura family, the third son or even only the youngest daughter should have come."
Hearing this, Luo Shu looked at Shinomiya Kaguya unexpectedly:
"They are both branches of the Six Families... In other words, they are distant relatives of Eriri? Is Sanenji also the ancestral temple of the Shinomiya Family?"
Speaking of this, Luo Shu couldn't help but mutter:
"This upper-class society is really small~".
Chapter 172 Qianhua, my God!
Luo Shu had to admit that this corner on the right was indeed a very suitable position for observation.
As long as you are a little taller, you can not only see the main seat from the side, but also the mages in the front, and you can also turn around and notice all kinds of people coming in from the entrance to attend the funeral.
In addition, when observing others from behind, although you cannot see their movements directly, you can still see some details of their body language from the back.
Thanks to this angle and Kasumigaoka Utaha's mind-reading ability, Luo Shu began to "get to know" some people whose faces he needed to recognize.
"The middle-aged man wearing glasses who came in first is the Prime Minister and his wife, and accompanying them is the English ambassador."
Kasumigaoka Utaha lowered her voice and explained quietly.
Luo Shu glanced at the couple who were bowing to Sayuri Sawamura and then exchanging a few words with a middle-aged white man with brown hair and a bald head, and recognized their faces.
"There are two women queuing up to enter the door. The older one is the wife of the Suzuki tycoon, and the other one seems to be the second daughter of the Suzuki family who rarely appears in social occasions."
Hearing this, Luo Shu took a quick look at the second lady of the Suzuki family.
The black headband and broad forehead were two features that made Luo Shu quickly realize that it was indeed Suzuki Sonoko, the woman he had only heard of.
And after the Suzuki family is the American ambassador.
The other party was an old woman with a stern look. After greeting the widow solemnly, she went to pay tribute to the deceased.
After the American ambassador and several ministers and their wives, Luo Shu met an acquaintance who needed no introduction.
