half sad

Chapter 1

"Hi everyone, my name is Suzuko, and I'm a new intern in the company. I was sent to the Hokkaido office as a trainee to study for a year. Please give me your advice, thank you!" Seeing so many unfamiliar faces under the podium, I I couldn't help being so nervous that my palms were sweaty.When he glanced at Garen, there was a smile in his eyes, with the slightest sense of wordless banter.It seemed like a failed self-introduction.I don't know how I got off the podium, but someone applauded.I just looked down and quickly found an empty seat and sat down.

After the meeting, a beautiful MM took me to my own desk: "Suzuko, I am Tomoko Miura from the General Affairs Department. If you have any needs, please let me know. I will try my best to help you." His smiling face completely relieved my frustration, so I quickly expressed my thanks and began to look around my workplace: in a standard Japanese office, everyone is concentrating on their work, and I, a newcomer, exists like air.Where do I start?A familiar smell came over. "Here, this is your necessary office equipment. Clean it up. When you are OK, we will start special training." "Special training?" I opened my eyes wide. "Don't listen to him, he hasn't received special training himself." A cold voice came from the left side of my seat. "Excellent! This is my student, don't ruin my image when you come up, how can I be a teacher in the future?!" I straightened up, and was surprised that the owner of the cold voice was such a handsome man. The man glanced Glancing at my distorted expression, I pushed the glasses on my nose with a normal look: "Hello, I'm Kamiao." "Hello, I'm Suzuko, please take care of me." "Good luck! "Looking at Jia Miao's awe-inspiring look, I began to wonder how bottomless Jia Long would be.

After a brief tease, Gallon began to instruct me how to use basic methods to do the tasks assigned by the leader.I suddenly discovered that this man is actually very patient and serious in his work, which is completely different from the Garen I met before.If it weren't for his unique smell, I must think that I followed the wrong senior.When he saw that I didn't fully understand, Garen would explain it in a more acceptable language before I opened my mouth.Half a day passed without knowing it. "It's time to eat." Jia Miao tapped on the partition. "Let's go. Solve the stomach problem first." Garen helped me close the notebook used to record the main points.The slender fingers with sharp knuckles made my heart stop for half a beat (who told us to take this bite~) "Don't you have to wait for the poker guy?" A silver short-haired man walked towards us carelessly. "Suzuko, this is Dismask, our colleague from the department next door." Garen introduced, and then said softly: "This guy is a person who likes to show his presence." Dismask raised his eyebrows. "Garon, accumulate some morals, and be careful that your lunch will be ruined!" After talking and laughing, the four of us came to the cafeteria.Follow the seniors to choose the dishes and start eating.Hokkaido is indeed a good place for foodies to camp.The seafood on the plate, whether it is the plump salmon or the prawn tempura, can quickly arouse my appetite.There is also a kind of dumpling, which looks a bit like glutinous rice balls, served in a plain shallow dish.As a lover of sweets, I decided to put my chopsticks on the dumpling first. I didn't expect the dumpling to be so slippery that I couldn't hold it.Garen looked at me and smiled, and turned to the dumpling on his plate.Without much effort, the dumpling was clamped up. "Try again." I feel a little ashamed, a Chinese is actually worse than a Westerner in using chopsticks! Take a deep breath, slightly squeeze the dumpling with the tip of the chopsticks, lift it up gently, and sure enough, it's a success. "How could this be?" I muttered. "Because I'm here." Garen said lightly.The dumplings slipped from between the chopsticks into the bowl. "By the way, I just took this opportunity to introduce these seniors to you. If you have any difficulties in the future, just look for them." Jia Long pointed to Jia Miao: "Jia Miao, from France, aged 20, is responsible for the research and development of graphics. Single." Jia Miao stared and said, "Hey, do you want to be an 8-minute blind date? Do you want to publish your height and weight measurements?" I laughed out loud. "Well, you have to smile more, it feels much better when you laugh. "Garon still said lightly, and before I could recall it, he pointed at Dismask: "Desmask, from Italy, 23 years old, in charge of product testing. Single, but has a goal "Dismask was not annoyed either, with a mischievous smile on his face: "Garon, from Greece, 28 years old, newcomer trainer, full-time, unmarried..." "Sorry, I'm late." I was pricking up my ears Ready to listen to the most critical part, a man greeted everyone and sat down beside Jia Miao with a plate, diagonally opposite to me, and then hurriedly started to deal with the food on the plate." Hey, poker man, this is a fellowship Come on, it affects the atmosphere too much, you." "I will follow up the experimental results later, I don't have time to mess around with you!" The man's voice was firm. I began to carefully look at the person in front of me: fair and reddish complexion, high nose bridge, eyes Clean but very sharp. This is completely different from Garon's slightly airy peach eyes, as if to say: Do not disturb strangers. "Rare Spaniard! Which southern European is not as romantic and affectionate as Master Diss." Diss Musk curled his lips. During these words, the Spaniard had already finished his lunch, quickly picked up the plate, arranged the seats, and left in a hurry with only one sentence of "excuse me".

"Sura, 23 years old, in charge of product design, single, not interested in women." Gallon continued to introduce. "Well, he is a workaholic, not only not interested in women, but also in men." Dismasque Snap your fingers. "It's your turn!" "I" I was stunned, "Didn't I introduce myself in the previous meeting?" "Please follow the above format." Desmask never let me go look.His eyes turned to Garen for help, but Garen looked out the window tacitly.Jiamiao opened her mouth, as if trying to stop Dismask, and my voice rang out at the same time: "Suzuko, 21 years old, product design translator, single." " Dismasker looked very happy, "By the way, Mr. Translator, although you are following Mrs. Garen, the final boss you will deal with in the future is a poker man. Good luck!" This is the second "I wish you Good luck", I always feel that what is waiting for me is not the gorgeous and bright future that the company promised me when it recruited me?

Continue to study in the afternoon after lunch.Garen continued to explain the product specifications to me dutifully. Although it would be indigestible for a liberal arts student to accept so much science and engineering knowledge at once, I tried my best to record them in the notebook and prepare to go home and review them carefully.Compared with my hometown, the summer in Hokkaido is really cool and pleasant. The office has turned off the air conditioner and opened the windows for ventilation in order to save energy and protect the environment. A gust of wind blows the wind chime by the window, and the thoughts are drawn further and further away. "Take a break, I will buy two Here comes a can of coffee." As if suddenly awakened from a dream, I couldn't help shivering, and saw Garen's back getting farther and farther away. Then I began to feel uneasy: I should be seen as distracted. The first day of class That's it... When Garen came back, I stood up and bowed vigorously: "I'm very sorry, I was distracted." Garen's eyes gradually softened, as gentle as the teddy bear on the bedside at home: "You don't need to apologize. Listen Normal people will suddenly feel sleepy because of the boring knowledge that they have never been exposed to for so long. It is already very good to be able to concentrate for so long. Let’s have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself. If you persist for a while, it will be time to get off work.” “Thank you " I thanked in a low voice, took the can of coffee, opened it lightly, took a sip, and couldn't help frowning: "It's so bitter." Garen's eyes flashed with cheerful colors, but he tried his best not to laugh out loud: "Look Here is another person who doesn't drink coffee." "Well, I don't like the taste, and I feel tired after being excited. So, even if I have to stay up late, I won't drink it." Garen squinted his eyes and looked at me, Thoughtful." What's the matter?" I couldn't bear to be stared at by a pair of peach blossom eyes that were as beautiful as stars for so long, and blushed again. "It's nothing, let's continue with class." Garen drank the coffee in his hand , to start the last class before work.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the desk. "Today's class is over. You are free." Garen looked at the clock on the white wall, it was pointing to 17:30." Hey, I have always heard that Japanese companies will never leave work on time Yes." I asked confusedly. "Today is a friend's birthday, and I have to go to the scene to make arrangements in advance." Garen smiled, then knocked on the partition: "Jia Miao, you have to hurry up." Garen left the office in a hurry.I started packing my things to go home.The office door was pushed open again: "Jia Miao, when are we going to leave?" Dismasker walked in turning the keychain, "What's the rush? Garen is going to set up the scene, we have to give him some time." Miao stared at the computer screen with no intention of leaving. "That, that, I want to bring someone, so I have to notify him in advance." "Who? Could it be Suzuko?" "Me?" I opened my eyes wide. "Her?" Desmask also looked shocked, "Jia Miao, can you stop telling a bad joke?" "Am I a bad joke?" I muttered aggrievedly.Dismasque couldn't close his mouth: "I just want to call Tomoko! Why did this matter turn out like this when I told you??" Jia Miao smiled, and looked away from the computer to look at Di Musk: "Go, tell her, we leave from the company at 18:30." From Musk's expression, we can see the mixed feelings in his heart, but he turned around and walked away without saying a word . "You'd better tell Ms. Miura that Suzuko is going too, otherwise, the chances of you dating her are almost zero." I stretched my head to look outside, but there was no trace of Desmask. "Suzuko, let's go together at night." "This, is it convenient?" "You have become a member of our company, and it is very common for colleagues to have dinner together. Also, you cooperated very well just now." Jia wonderful Although the temperament is as cold as ice and unapproachable, it can really make people feel the delicate emotions and quick thinking of the French. "By the way, please do me a favor. Contact Ms. Miura and say that we are having a dinner party to celebrate Aiolia's birthday, and invite her to go with her. Please wait for us at the front desk at 18:20." I comprehended to Jia Miao Nodding his head, he dialed Miura Tomoko's phone and conveyed Kamiao's original words and sentences. "Suzuko, thank you, I will definitely participate! Desmask came to see me just now, and seeing his expression, he thought he was playing tricks on me again..." I didn't know what to say, I could only laugh awkwardly Smile: "Then see you at the front desk at 18:20." "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, I saw that Jia Miao was still concentrating on his work, so I went back to my seat to review what I learned today. "Don't you want to ask something?" Cameau began.I blinked: "No." "You are very unique." "Thank you, I just feel that others must have their own ideas about things that they haven't told me, so don't ask." "Well, from the conversation you had with Garen today, And judging from our current conversation, at least one thing is certain: you will not be hated by Shura." Jia Miao was busy typing on the keyboard while chatting with me. "Oh? Shura? The one Dismask called the poker guy?" "Yes, I think you'll help him in the end, not just in the translation work." "He doesn't like interacting with people? "No, he attaches great importance to friendship, although he has been suppressing what he said: the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. He just gave himself completely to work, and has no time to take care of too much, and those who disturb him from concentrating on work will inevitably be punished." He just dislikes it." "His attitude towards making friends is very Chinese. You all know that 'friendship between gentlemen is as light as water'!" "This was mentioned by one of our teachers, but I don't know that Shura has engraved it in his heart since he was a child. .The teacher is Chinese, and he is still meditating in Wulaofeng." "It's amazing!" I exclaimed, "It seems that this teacher must be a master of Taoism! By the way, have you known each other since childhood?" "Well, together A best friend who grew up." I don't know why, but when Jia Miao said this, his complexion darkened. "Um, it seems we should go." Jia Miao turned off the computer and ended the topic.

Tomoko Miura was already waiting for us at the front desk. "Two ladies, I'm going to get the car, just wait for me at the gate." Jia Miao turned and left, but it made me feel like I was alone. Before I came to Japan, I always heard that the Japanese are very polite. It's a face project, but it doesn't have the remote intimacy of the people. How should we get along with them now?Just as I was hesitating, Miura walked towards me and smiled slightly: "Suzuko, are you still used to it today?" "Well, it's not bad, the seniors have treated me very well. Of course including Senior Miura, thank you!" "Don't be so polite, everyone Take care of each other. Also, please call me Tomoko." Miura's kind voice made it impossible for me to refuse.Gradually, we talked more and more, from hobbies to dressing up, to cooking and housework. In this way, Jia Miao arrived at the destination with the two girls who talked softly and laughed all the way.

This is a European-style bar. The most famous lavender and sunflowers in Hokkaido this season are planted in a small garden, as well as some flowers and plants that I can't name.There are several white lacquered wood tables and seats in the garden next to the bar, and there is a swing next to it.Man on a swing. .Huh?Isn't that Deathmask?With a gloomy look on his face, he guessed it was because of Tomoko.I pulled Yuko forward, and Tomoko twitched a little, but Desmask's expression changed from cloudy to sunny, and his eyes were full of deep and charming Italians.Tomoko squeezed my hand slightly, and then walked forward: "I'm sorry, Desmask, I misunderstood you." "Um, I left a bad impression on you before, and it's very strange for you to react like this." It's normal." Desmask scratched his nose.I had never seen such a tender side of Desmask, and I immediately realized that the light bulb should be turned off immediately, so I found a reason and left in a hurry.

The bar was full of excitement. The strange thing was that I didn't see Jia Long, but Jia Miao and a blond boy were discussing something enthusiastically.There are also several people not dressed as waiters who are setting up the scene, chatting with Jia Miao and the others from time to time.I'm a little uneasy: how to integrate it?Do something for them?Just as I was about to step forward, I suddenly felt someone pat me on the shoulder: "Follow me to the backyard." Garen!I don't know why, but when his voice came out at this time, I quickly calmed down, and I no longer felt like I was just an outsider.It's so strange, we've only been together for 3,4 or 20 days since we first met.I left the room as if I had never been in.When I arrived at the backyard, I looked at everything in front of me and was shocked!What kind of picture is that: a miniature version of a European market town, every building, every street scene, every living and non-living thing that exists in the market town is lifelike. "This?" "This is Aiolia's birthplace. It's my birthday present to Aiolia. I started working on it a few months ago until last night." "You made it yourself? ""What? I look like a very useless person?" "No, that's not what I mean. I just think you are so powerful, with such a great ability, why don't you become an architect?" "You Think I'm willing to do what I'm doing now?" "Huh?" Gallon seemed to realize that he shouldn't have said such a thing to me, and quickly changed the subject: "I didn't ask you to praise this work, but I hope you Can you give me a little suggestion to make it more perfect. Because I always feel that there is something missing." "Thank you for your trust." I started to look back and forth around the model: "Today is Aiolia's birthday, right? "Well, [-]th birthday." "If it were me, I would hope that this important birthday would be accompanied by not only friends, but also family members. Is there any family in this town?" Garen was silent. "Did you say so, Garen?" I asked.Garen remained silent.I turned my head to look at him, his brows were furrowed, and after a while, he squeezed out two words from his thin lips: "No." "Then let's see if we can add family members, even if it's a photo." Gallon Still silent. "Garon, use this." A wooden statue was handed to the side, and we turned sideways together.Isn't this Shura?A pair of long and narrow eyes became more and more clear under the night, and for some reason, there was a feeling of tears filling their eyes.Is it my oversensitivity again?While Garen took over the wood carving, I took a close look: the statue is a man with short hair, a ochre-red headband tightly tied on his forehead, sword eyebrows and star eyes, and a longbow tightly held in his hand. "This is Aiolos?" "Well, see things and think about people. You can make do with it first. By the way, bring me a blessing to Aiolia. I'm going back to the laboratory." I looked at this tall and straight figure The man, he looked at me for a few seconds and then slightly bowed: "See you later."

Garen over there has already started planning where to put the wood carving. I walked behind him silently. "The sun really came out from the west today. Shura actually gave me the wooden carving of Aiolos that he polished with his own hands, and he wasted three seconds on this girl." Garen seemed to be talking to himself.It sounded a bit uncomfortable to me: "Do you need my help?" "Oh, no, I think I can handle it by myself." At this time, Garen seemed a little rusty. In the end, he placed the wooden sculpture in front of a statue." This is Athena?" "En." "Garon, the party has started." Camiao came over and sighed involuntarily, "This is the ultra-luxury gift you're talking about?" "It's definitely luxurious enough." Restored his previous air, "Well, although I know your ability, I never thought you would have such an idea and restore the town god." The town is gone." "Asura said he was coming to find you, and I accidentally saw you taking Suzuko to the backyard and told him. Did you meet?" "Well, he gave me this." Garen pointed to the wood carving, It would be Camille's turn to be silent.What happened in the middle.It's better not to ask, so as not to touch their taboo because of saying the wrong thing.

The three returned to the party scene, and Tomoko hurriedly pulled me over to sit with her.I saw the protagonist Aiolia, a big boy with a heroic spirit, wheat-colored skin, and a proud face that would not be offensive. Aiolia stepped onto the small podium specially arranged for him: " Thank you for your careful arrangements and warm support. I want to say that I am very honored: first, I have made friends like you, and second, no matter what happened over the years, you all came to help me from a place not far from me. I hope we can always have each other's company in our lives! Thank you!" Aiolia bowed deeply, the audience applauded like thunder, and everyone shouted "Happy Birthday~" Tomoko told me that Aiolia does not belong to Hokkaido Firm, he is the window person of the company's Greek headquarters, responsible for some docking work with our firm. Because of his cheerful nature, he has very good popularity on both sides, especially the relationship with the opposite sex." Well, it can be seen. Very good Man." I nodded in praise. "Are you interested in challenging me?" Tomoko winked mischievously at me. I was so guilty that I actually turned my head and cast my gaze at Garen who was diagonally behind me, but I just happened to meet him looking here Come here, and after looking at each other for a while, I chose to avoid that look." Suzuko, let's go get something to eat." Tomoko touched me, and I came back to my senses: "Okay." In the second half of the party, I kept Not in the state, and Tomoko replied without a word. I realized that this is a bad omen.

"Youzi, I want to ask you a more private question. Have you ever experienced love at first sight?" I helped Youzi on the way home, and the two of us were a little drunk." Well, of course there was." There was a light of joy shining on the face, "It is very precious, a very precious experience." "Will the feeling of love at first sight last?" Youzi blinked his big eyes: "Suzuko, who have you fallen in love with?" "I'm afraid it is." "Well, I also It’s hard to say, the important thing is to see if two people have the heart to work hard to maintain it. I always feel that love at first sight is a gorgeous encounter, at least that’s how it was in my relationship. But even if I lose it, I’m still very grateful to the other party for bringing me such a special experience "Tomoko looked at the misty blue night sky, took a deep breath and turned to me: "So, you have to work hard! Accept this experience." I nodded half understanding. I am still young, so let's indulge while I am young Take it yourself.
