Chapter 73 - Chapter 74: Social Skills

Looking at the yellow paper handed over by the young man, Nanami hesitated, not knowing whether he should accept it.

Zenin Kiyoshi glanced at the young couple behind Nanami, frowned slightly, and then asked in a low voice:

"Are those your parents? They should be entangled by Cursed Spirits, which are the monsters you see. Although those monsters haven't followed them for now, judging from the cursed energy residue on them, those things haven't let them go. Take this, not only for yourself but also to protect your parents."

Hearing this, Nanami nodded. He didn't refuse anymore but reached out and took the yellow talisman from Zenin Kiyoshi, then said in a somewhat awkward and faint voice:

"Thank you, my name is Kento Nanami."

Because he grew up in Denmark, Nanami's Japanese was not particularly good. Moreover, with his blond hair and blue eyes, he was not well-accepted by his peers in Japan.

It seemed that whether in middle school or elementary school, if you didn't find your own small group within the first three days of the class being formed, no matter how hard you tried later, you would be excluded by the quietly formed small circles.

This was a situation where all kinds of negative buffs were stacked on top of Nanami, who was a transfer student, a foreigner, not proficient in Japanese, and unable to integrate into the circle of Japanese students.

It could be said that during his time in Japan, he was almost always alone and basically had no normal interaction with his peers.

Moreover, the Japanese way of interacting made him feel a little suppressed, with too much emphasis on superficial etiquette and various restrictions in conversation.

Therefore, when communicating with Zenin Kiyoshi, Nanami used his clumsy Japanese, trying to be as polite as possible.

To this, Zenin Kiyoshi also quickly realized why Nanami was so reserved.

For this ability to quickly perceive the other party's delicate inner thoughts and deduce the reasons why they have formed this personality, Zenin Kiyoshi was now becoming more and more adept at it.

He himself didn't even know if this was a symbol of being a natural-born charmer...

Maybe my surname was "Liu" before I transmigrated in my previous life. Maybe I even had a few sworn brothers in the Peach Garden...

Thinking about those things in his mind, the corners of Zenin Kiyoshi's mouth slightly raised:

"You don't have to be so polite with me. I'm not Japanese, and I don't like the rules and regulations here. When you talk to me, just do whatever is comfortable. My name is Zenin Kiyoshi, you can just call me Kiyoshi. I should go now, otherwise the car will get a ticket if it's parked there. If you have any difficulties later, you can go there to find me."

Zenin Kiyoshi did not choose to continue talking with Nanami. Besides the fact that it was really not good for the car to be parked there, another reason was to keep him on the hook.

Looking at Nanami's appearance, the other party had most likely not yet entered the jujutsu world, otherwise it would be impossible for him not to even be able to clear the cursed energy residue on his parents.

And when he had tentatively asked just now, he had not refuted it, which also indirectly confirmed that his guess was correct.

Under this circumstance, Nanami had at least a 90% probability of actively coming to find him.

[Same kind], [Foreigner], [Problem solver], [New world]...

Various labels that were strongly attractive to Nanami were placed on Zenin Kiyoshi, and behind these labels were hidden more of Nanami's own imagination about Kiyoshi.

The real Zenin Kiyoshi was not perfect, but in Nanami's imagination, he was definitely perfect.

In this way, the longer Nanami's imagination lasted, the lower the difficulty for Kiyoshi to gain his affection later.

People will form a kind of inertia of thought. When you habitually think about someone in a certain way, no matter whether that person really acts according to your way of thinking later, you will subconsciously make excuses for the other party in your mind.

Trying hard to gain affection will instead give people a feeling of being deliberate and inferior.

It is better to let the other party choose to imagine on their own, as that is more likely to achieve the goal.

Of course, the risk of the second method is relatively high. If the other party does not imagine, then the opportunity for future contact will be completely lost.

But here with Zenin Kiyoshi, he was certain that Nanami would definitely not let the cursed energy residue on his parents go unchecked, so he was almost 100% sure of Nanami's future visit.

What's more... the roll of talismans he had just handed to Nanami was actually the tool used to seal Sukuna before.

There was still some residual barrier on it that could drive away Cursed Spirits. If Nanami really encountered any danger, it should be able to hold on for a while.

As Zenin Kiyoshi got into the car and left, Nanami's parents also walked over from the beach at this moment. They bent down, looked at the still-dazed Nanami, and said with a smile:

"Little Nanami, was that your classmate just now?"

Hearing his mother's words, Nanami subconsciously nodded. It would be more troublesome to explain at this time.

And when his father heard this, a faint smile appeared on his face, and then he said:

"What a coincidence. Why didn't you invite him over to have a meal with us? Did he just leave in such a hurry?"

"He has something else to do. I'll invite him over next time I have time..."

As he said these words, Nanami himself felt a little strange. Why did he think that the other party would definitely accept his invitation?

But his parents did not notice the lack of confidence in Nanami's words. They listened to their child's leap forward on the social ladder, and both of them were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. They told Nanami that if he really invited the other party over next time, he must, must say in advance, and they would prepare a sumptuous meal to entertain Zenin Kiyoshi.

To this, Nanami could only nod a little unnaturally.

On the other side, Toji was looking at Zenin Kiyoshi at this moment and asked with some curiosity:

"Do you know that brat? Is he a foreigner?"

"No, I don't know him. I just feel that we have an affinity."

"Affinity? What's that?"

"I like the look of him."

Hearing Zenin Kiyoshi's explanation, Toji didn't say anything. He turned back and glanced at the Nanami family, which was about to disappear from his sight, and then said:

"You gave them that thing to protect them, right? I can feel that the cursed energy residue on those two is quite a lot."

"Something like that."

"A meddlesome brat. Will it be dangerous?"

"A duplicitous adult?"
