In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 67

The time was after dinner that day, and Kai Uesugi had another meal at Hanamaru's house.

"The progress is very fast." Hanamaru Yuki put down the bamboo sword in his hand.

The so-called "quick progress" refers to the fact that Kai Uesugi was not beaten much today.

In the small courtyard of Hanamaru’s house, Kaoru Uesugi received his first kendo training from Yuki Hanamaru at night.

In recent days, he seems to be a bit busy.

Putting down the sore bamboo sword in his hand, Kai Uesugi sat on the small wooden table outside the living room.

After yawning uncontrollably, Hanamaru Hiroki also sat beside him.

"I heard from Huahuo that you will also participate in the national bow competition?"

"Yeah." Kaoru Uesugi tried his best to keep his tired nerves awake.

"Difficult goal, but since you want to hold on, keep going."

"Uncle, are you busy recently?"

"uncle?"

Hanamaru Hiroki suddenly changed his face, and said sharply: "Stinky boy, these days, Uncle and Uncle are already so easy to call? In a few days, will your father-in-law be able to call it casually?"

"." Uesugi Kai didn't know what to say at this time.

"I've been a little busy recently," Hanamaru Yuki continued, "Some restless things have started to move. Although it's not a big deal, it's not a good thing for ordinary people to become active like that."

"So, you and Hanabi had better not wander around, the area of ​​Shinjuku is still very restless at night."

"very dangerous?"

"very dangerous."

As the director of the police station, Hanamaru Hiroki naturally knows a lot of things hidden in the dark.

He said it so cryptically, because he didn't want Kai Uesugi and Hanamaru Hanabi to have too much contact with these things.

However, Hanamaru Hiroki's previous experience still made Uesugi Kaoru couldn't help asking:

"Uncle, you said that you are from the First Investigation Section, right?"

"Yes," Hanamaru Yuki looked up at the night sky above, "especially during the first period, during that period, I was very busy and tired, and I fell asleep when I came home, and I had to think about those subtle clues when I woke up. .”

Hanamaru Hiroki sighed, and then looked back at Uesugi Kai:

"Why are you asking this? Want to be a policeman?"

"No, it's not." Uesugi Kai shook his head.

But being a policeman is indeed a choice for Uesugi Kai.

As long as he is admitted to the University of Tokyo, and then passed the National First-Class Civil Service Examination to become a professional group, under the care of Hanamaru Hiroki, his future will be bright.

But the busy life of the police, especially the criminal department, is too tiring for Uesugi Kai.

He doesn't want to live in hard work all his life, and the current hard work is also for the future life of salted fish.

If you don't work hard for a more comfortable life, can that be called hard work?

Kaoru Uesugi continued: "Isn't the investigation section all responsible for major criminal cases? Uncle, you have such a high position, I'm worried"

He didn't finish the sentence because he knew Hanamaru Hiroki had understood him.

"You want to ask those guys I caught, will they wait for an opportunity to retaliate?"

Uesugi nodded.

"meeting."

Hanamaru Yuki picked up the bamboo sword beside him and stared at Xian Ge above, "Although there are not many such characters, there are still some."

His tone suddenly became heavy.

"There was one time 12 years ago, and he wanted to threaten me to stop the case."

The air was silent for a moment, Uesugi Kai asked:

"Then, what's next?"

The voice of speaking disappeared, and Hanamaru Hiroki obviously didn't want to reveal more.

"There is nothing to say about these things. You just need to know that there are such dangerous people. They hide in the dark. The police can't monitor them all the time, and they have no way to know what they want to do."

"It's called a criminal case because it won't be known."

Hanamaru Hiroki patted Uesugi Kai on the shoulder.

"Most people don't have that kind of guts, but I've faced more criminals than you can imagine."

"Because of the special nature of my profession, Huahuo will also be potentially dangerous. I can't protect her all the time. When I'm not around, I have to rely on you kid."

"do not forget."

Uesugi nodded.

"I see."

The glass door behind the two was pushed open, and Hanamaru Hanabi, dressed in casual clothes, put the barley tea in her hand between the two with clever steps.

"Dad, here it is."

"Ah."

Hanamaru Hiroki looked at her daughter's smiling face, smiled and took the warm teacup from her hand.

"Mr. Zhao."

"Thank you."

Take a sip of the tea, and the warm aroma of wheat remains between your lips and teeth.

"Your Majesty."

Under Hanamaru Hanabi's gaze, Uesugi Kai could feel a warm current that was different from barley tea in his heart, but he didn't dare to look at her too much.

Because Hanamaru Yuki who just took a sip of tea suddenly frowned slightly.

Immediately, Hanamaru Hanabi felt her head being patted.

She looked back at Hanamaru Hiroki suspiciously: "Dad?"

Hanamaru Hiroki looked at her small face, and reproached softly: "You girl, in front of father, how dare you look at this brat like that?"

"Hanabi. No"

Hanamaru Hanabi didn't dare to look at her father, but when she turned her head to meet Uesugi Kai's gaze, she had to lower her head shyly.

This situation made Hanamaru Hiroki's heart twitch slightly.

Obviously, she was such an obedient daughter when she was young.
Ugh.
After sighing silently in his heart, when he saw Kai Uesugi, he seemed to have thought of something suddenly, with a serious face:

"I heard from Mieko that you both have bought your engagement rings?"

As soon as these words came out, Hanamaru Hanabi blushed, Uesugi Kai even put down the tea that had just been put into his mouth.

"Yes, it is."

In fact, he couldn't understand why his aunt and his mother would do such an abrupt thing.

When asked two days ago in the early morning, Uesugi Noriko just said that she saw a VA jewelry store while shopping with Hanamaru Mieko, and walked in together on a sudden whim.

When it came out, there were two more expensive red boxes.

She also joked that it would be a matter of time, and if she didn't want to wear it now, there would be no problem.

So up to now, he and Hanamaru Hanabi have kept those two things at home.

Hanamaru Hanabi was even more embarrassed to bring up this topic. She hadn't even been in a serious relationship for two days, and she was given an engagement ring by two mothers.

No matter how you look at this kind of thing, it is extremely abrupt.

Seeing the reactions of the two, Hanamaru Hiroki also knew that this was a good thing arranged by Mieko and Noriko's girlfriends.

They are obviously still children, and they are still in high school, so buying it early will not have any effect.

It is impossible for the two of them to wear them to school separately.

"Forget it, forget it, just buy it," Hanamaru Yuki sighed again in his heart, "It was my mistake to let Hanabi get in touch with you kid every day since I was a child."
