    "Is this where we live? It feels the same as when I returned to my hometown!" Uesugi Maki said with a shrug, looking at the dilapidated yard in front of her.  "There are still some differences. For example, the buildings here are all Chinese-style, and we don't need to clean them ourselves." Qingye said as he opened the door of a room opposite the courtyard gate and observed it.  The relatively clean room nodded.  As for the difference between a Chinese-style room and a Japanese-style room, the most obvious one is probably the door. The Chinese-style room has a door that can be closed and opened, while the Japanese-style room has a sliding door.  The building in front of him naturally adheres to the Chinese architectural style. When he was far away at first, Aoba just thought that the style here was more Chinese. But now after observing closely, Aoba is more sure that the buildings here are all Chinese.  Chinese style.  Not only from the door, when Qingye entered the house and looked at the various furnishings and arrangements in the house, he was even more certain that this was a Chinese-style building.  Whether it is the table and chairs facing the door, or the seats arranged on both sides, there is also a classic bed in the house not far away.  "Don't you need to clean it? This is great, but the layout here feels a bit unfamiliar." Uesugi Maki's face suddenly lit up when she heard that there was no need to clean it, but she followed Aoba in  After entering the house and looking at the layout, he frowned again.  "This is a Chinese-style layout. It's normal if you are not used to it. But what makes me wonder is that even the person who built this place a hundred years ago made everything a Chinese-style layout. Why has it taken so many years now?  , The layout has not changed? Normally, everyone can't help but transform the surrounding environment into one they are familiar with," Qingye said to himself.  "That may be because this is a temporary residence, right? Didn't the room at the registration office where Miss He was located also have a Japanese layout? Maybe it's because this is just a new trial place and has not passed the trial yet.  It is a temporary place for those who practice, so this layout is always maintained. After all, those who have passed the trial will have their own new residence, and there is no need to change the appearance of this place when they come back. And those who have not passed the trial will not.  I'll just stay here for a few days and then leave, let alone change the environment here." Uesugi Maki thought of a possibility for Aoye.  "Well, it seems that I really got into trouble. I didn't expect that you haven't thought clearly yet." Qingye was stunned, and then said with a forced smile.  It¡¯s not that Qingye really didn¡¯t expect it, it¡¯s just that at this moment, Qingye¡¯s mind has been in a mess for a day, and he has completely lost his usual calmness.  Although in Uesugi Maki's view, Aoba was still the same as usual at this time, just a little dazed.  But in fact, Qingye himself knows that ever since he saw the name of this palace and the Zhegui Palace, and felt the increasingly familiar layout of this palace, Qingye's brain was like a pot boiling, and it kept boiling.  Well, if it weren't for the calmness skills developed over hundreds of years, Qingye probably wouldn't be able to maintain his superficial calmness now.  "Okay, brother Aoba, I think you may be a little tired. Just take a good rest and you'll be fine." Uesugi Maki said with concern.  Just thinking about the way to the trial site, whether it was carrying him across the rope bridge or taking him to find the right direction in the disorienting forest, Uesugi Maki felt that Aoba might be a little tired.  .  "Are you tired? Maybe!" Qingye sat down on the seat facing the front door, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down.  "Okay, brother Aoba, don't think too much. It's almost time to eat. Someone will come to bring us food soon. Let's guess what delicious food there will be!" Uesugi Maki transferred  He took Qingye's attention and comforted him.  "Is it delicious? Of course it's miso soup and grilled fish, and then rice." At this point, Aoba suddenly smiled and said.  "Brother Aoye, how did you know? You said it in such detail?" Uesugi Maki originally wanted the two of them to guess what would happen, but who knew Aoye would say this with such certainty.  "It's very simple. Because I have already seen it!" Aoba, who was sitting facing the door, gestured to Uesugi Maki, who had been standing in front of him with his back to the door and looked at him, and turned to look behind him.  So Uesugi Maki immediately looked back and saw a girl in maid uniform standing behind her, looking at the two of them with a smile.  ¡°Obviously, the previous conversation between Aoba and Uesugi Maki made the maid feel funny.  "Okay, brother Aoba. You have already seen it, what else is there to guess." Uesugi Maki looked at Aoye dissatisfied.  "You said you wanted to guess, why are you relying on me again this time?"Ye Ye shrugged with a look of helplessness.  Uesugi Maki ignored him and glared at Aoba again. Then her expression changed instantly and she greeted the maid girl with a smile on her face.  "I'm sorry to bother you to bring dinner." "This is all my job, you're welcome." The maid girl also seemed to be very talkative, and said with a smile to Uesugi Maki.  "My name is Uesugi Maki. I just came here after being recommended. I haven't participated in the trial yet. Please give me your advice." Uesugi Maki introduced herself.  "Ah, I am the maid who is usually responsible for cleaning and cooking. My name is Qing Shui Lan. Please give me your advice." The girl named Qing Shui Lan also introduced herself.  "I am Uesugi Aoba, and I am also here to participate in the trial. Please give me your advice." Aoye also introduced himself.  Immediately, the girl Shimizu Aoi put down the dinner she had brought, and chatted with Uesugi Maki.  ??Or it could be that Maki Uesugi struck up a conversation intentionally and wanted to have a good relationship with the girl. In short, the two of them chatted for a few words before they became passionate.  Especially the girl named Shimizu Aoi, who seems to be very interested in Tokyo. As soon as Uesugi Maki mentioned the topic of Tokyo, her eyes lit up, and she kept asking Uesugi Maki about Tokyo.  She looks like an ordinary girl heading to a big city.  But Qingye could still feel it from the girl's aura. The girl in front of him was not ordinary in strength. What's more important was that the girl in front of him was not a human being, but a monster.  Although Qing Shuilan looks very young, her real age may be much older than Uesugi Maki.  "Maki-chan, so Tokyo Tower is really made of steel? How amazing!" Shimizu looked at Uesugi Maki with bright eyes.  "Of course Aoi-chan, if you have a chance, how about you go to Tokyo to find me, and then I will take you to visit Tokyo Tower? There is also Disneyland." Uesugi Maki said, patting her chest.  Looking at the names the two call each other, those who don¡¯t know may think they are good sisters who have known each other for many years.  "Yes. I will definitely go to Maki-chan if I have the chance." Qing Shuilan said with longing in her eyes.  "By the way, there's something I don't know, can I ask you?" At this moment, Aoba suddenly interrupted.  "What's the matter, Aoba-kun? Just ask, as long as it's not a secret, I'll tell you." Because of the pleasant chat with Uesugi Maki, Qingmizu Lan also had a good impression of Aoba.  "Actually, that's the case. Ever since I came to the trial place, I've been surprised that such a place exists. It's really amazing." Qingye said with praise.  "No, compared to Tokyo, our place is just a rural place." Qing Shuilan was obviously very impressed by Aoba's compliment, but he still said modestly.  "How could it be possible? How could such a wonderful place be in the countryside?" Aoba said eloquently, making Uesugi Maki feel like she was going to vomit.  "Really? Is our place really great?" The ignorant girl Qing Shuilan took the bait.  "Of course, so I really admire the man who created the trial place! So, please tell me. Is that man's identity good?" Qingye looked at him with sincere eyes.  Said Qing Shui Lan.  "Hey? Qingye-kun wants to know the identity of that adult?" Qing Shuilan suddenly woke up and hesitated when looking at Qingye's expectant eyes.  "What's wrong? Is this a secret?" Qingye asked quickly.  "Actually, this is not a secret, but according to the regulations, these things cannot be said to those who have not passed the trial, so I'm sorry Aoba-kun, after Aoba-kun passes the trial, he will definitely  Someone will explain these things to Qingye-kun." After Qing Shuilan hesitated for a moment, he smiled apologetically at Qingye.  "So that's it, then as long as I can pass the trial, I can know this, right?" Qingye nodded and said as if talking to himself.  "Yes, Aoba-kun will definitely pass the trial, and so will Maki-chan. Come on." Qing Shuilan may have felt a little embarrassed about rejecting Aoba, so she immediately cheered for the two of them loudly.  "Well, I will pass the trial, but thank you anyway, Ami-chan." Aoba said with a confident smile to Qingshui Lan.  Qing Shui Lan's face suddenly turned slightly red.  I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because of Aoba¡¯s sight or because of Aoba¡¯s ¡°Blue-chan¡±.    "Okay. It's getting late. You guys should hurry up and have your dinner. It will get cold soon. I'll come back to clear the dishes later." Qing Shui Lan stood up and said in a panic.  Then he left as if running away.  And when she left, Qing Shuilan still felt her heart pounding, and she didn't know what was wrong with her, why she was so nervous just by being glanced at by Qingye.  It was only then that Qingye realized something was wrong. It turned out that it was Qingye who was not paying attention and leaked some of the aura that he had always hidden in an instant, which caused Qing Shui Lan's abnormal behavior.  In this regard, Qingye could only shake his head and sigh, feeling more and more that he was really miserable today.  "Okay, brother Aoba, don't look any further. Aoi-chan has gone far. Let's eat quickly. I'm already hungry." Uesugi Maki said teasingly, patting Aoba's shoulder.  "Let's eat!" Qingye sighed and nodded. Although he didn't find out who the big shot was when he created the trial place, he still gained something after all. At least he knew that he had passed the trial.  So Qingye simply calmed down and stopped thinking so much. Anyway, he would know after passing the trial.  In this way, Aoba and Uesugi Maki ate their first meal at the trial site.  Tasting the grilled fish cooked at the trial site, Uesugi Maki seemed very satisfied with the taste.  ¡°Not bad, not bad, it tastes great. It seems that the fish used here is very unusual.¡± Uesugi Maki said with a gourmet tone.  "Isn't it all fish? How do you eat it so differently?" Aoba looked at Uesugi Maki and said in a funny way.  "Of course it's different. This is fish caught in the river in the mountains. Of course it tastes better than what's on the market." Maki Uesugi said in a clear-headed manner, as if she knew what she was doing.  "There will be sea fish in the river?" Qingye said as if he couldn't help but want to laugh.  "Huh? Sea fish?" Uesugi Maki was stunned for a moment.  "Yes, this is a sea fish, so it cannot be produced in the mountains. It can only be bought from outside the mountains." Aoba shrugged.  "So, it turns out to be sea fish? Inami-chan's cooking techniques are really amazing. I didn't even taste it. What a skill, what a skill, ahahaha, ahahaha." Uesugi Maki said with a fake smile.  Aoye looked at Uesugi Maki trying her best to hide it, but did not try to expose her.  You can basically tell whether it is a marine fish by looking at the fish bones. Freshwater fish have more fish bones, while marine fish have fewer fish bones.  The grilled fish he was eating in front of him, although Aoba didn¡¯t know what kind of fish it was, but as soon as he ate it, he could tell from the taste and the number of fish bones that it was marine fish.  Speaking of which, the tastes of sea fish and freshwater fish are quite different.  In this way, Uesugi Maki stopped talking after making a fool of herself. Instead, she bowed her head and ate the dinner in front of her honestly, as if eating the dinner by herself would make Aoba forget the embarrassing scene she just had.  .  Soon, the two of them finished their dinner, and after waiting for a while, they saw Qing Shui Lan's figure appearing in the yard again.  "Maki-chan, Aoba-kun, have you eaten?" At this time, Qing Shuilan seemed to have calmed down and said to the two of them with a smile.  "It's ready, thank you Lan Jiang." Aoba nodded slightly in thanks.  ¡°It¡¯s good, it¡¯s good, it¡¯s delicious. Thank you so much, Inou-chan.¡± Uesugi Maki also thanked her.  Now it seems that she has overcome the embarrassment just now and can talk and laugh with Qing Shuilan again.  ¡°That¡¯s great if you like it, so I¡¯ll pack away these tableware first.¡± Then Qing Shuilan began to sort out the tableware used by the two of them.  (~^~)
