I'm surviving in a love game

Chapter 57 57 mouthfuls of black mud

"As for dinner... I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany Mr. Jono." Shiori Hoshimiya dragged on, seemingly hesitant, but in fact she was thinking of finding a convincing excuse to avoid In the end, she fell back to the point where she couldn't refuse Ayatsuji pedestrians, a single meaningless syllable rolled out of her throat, "Uh..."

Damn it, if you want to blame it, this guy's invitation completely caught her by surprise, and today happened to be another rest day, no matter how much you evade it, according to the attitude of the other party, it is very likely that she will bite the bullet and go with him in the end. go to have dinner.

Shiori Hoshimiya hadn't hung up the phone when she said this, she thought that the sulking Ranbu would hang up the phone silently, but when she came to her senses, she found that the phone was still on.

It's just that the silence on the other end made it hard not to give people the illusion that "maybe he has left", so she just hung up the phone.

However, the reason why the illusion is an illusion is that you often only see the surface, and the current Xinggong Shizhi just falls into this strange circle.

With a beep, the phone was hung up.Edogawa Ranpo, who had been staring at the phone screen calmly, until the phone screen automatically turned black, and his calm face stripped of all expressions or emotions was reflected.

This step seems to be...wrong.

Putting the phone aside, he stood up and walked leisurely.

Tiaoye Caiju was about to say something when Xinggong Shizhi received another text message, which was a life-saving straw.

The eyes of the girl in front of me lit up immediately, she swept away her bitter face, and smiled unconsciously, "I'm sorry, our president asked me to go back to the detective agency, I'm afraid I have to work overtime tonight."

She can guarantee that this is definitely her most willing overtime.

"Miss Xinggong, let's go to work first, there is still time another day." Tiaoye Caiju was not surprised, after all, Xinggong Shizhi's refusal was clearly written on his face, and he almost didn't say it directly.

However, it is not uncommon to be hindered.

Because not only Shiori Xinggong, but Tiao Ye Caiju, who seems to be an outsider, has long been aware of the undercurrent that centers on her.

Then let's make a step first, even the slightest bit of embarrassment after being rejected can't be read from Tiaoye Caiju's face.

"Then I'll go first, I wish you a pleasant night." After saying the polite words, she left in a hurry.

I'm afraid things won't go as she wants.

"Have a nice night..." Joye Caiju repeated her words in a low voice, then thought of the arrested Ayatsuji pedestrian, and said to himself, "It should be possible."

After walking out of the station to make sure that Tiao Yecaiju didn't keep up, the hurried footsteps turned into regular and gentle steps.

Fukuzawa Yukichi's news came too timely, but Shiori Xinggong, who was only worried about the wild chrysanthemum picking, obviously didn't realize the hidden connection, she quickly replied with a short message, "Well, I will hurry come over".

Although I tried my best to shorten the time spent on the road, it still took a lot of time, and it was already seven o'clock in the evening when I finally arrived at the detective agency.

In Yokohama at the turn of autumn and winter, it always gets dark so early, and today is no exception. The sky darkened early. When she walked into the building, the voice-activated lights in the elevator corridor seemed to have not caught her footsteps, and slowly In the silence, she stomped her feet vigorously and the voice-activated light turned on slowly. The eyes of the people who were pierced by the white light couldn't get used to it all at once, so she instinctively raised her hand to block the light.

But from between his fingers, he caught a shadow of a person in a corner where the light did not penetrate.

Blinking his eyes, he disappeared again.

She carefully kept an eye out, took the elevator up to the detective agency, the entrance door was ajar, she pushed it open, and there was no one inside, Fukuzawa Yukichi should be staying in his office.

Instead of going directly to the office, out of habit, she went to the pantry to make a cup of tea first, and then walked to the door of the office accompanied by the smell of tea.

"Knock knock—" She held the tray with one hand, and knocked on the door with the other hand.

"come in."

Hoshimiya Shiori pushed open the door, closed the door with her elbows after entering the office, and put the brewed tea on the table, "Is there any urgent need to work overtime?"

Fukuzawa Yukichi, who picked up the teacup, froze slightly.

When he received the news from Fudi, he couldn't help but tremble for a second.

"Your member seems to have some connection with that murderous detective. The other party did not hesitate to escape the surveillance of the military and police to attend the appointment."

He couldn't remember Fudi's original words, or his brain deliberately blurred this memory, but he still remembered the basic meaning.

But this can't be him calling the other party to him with the information of overtime work, Fukuzawa Yukichi is a little annoyed by his impulsive behavior.This kind of annoyance is not pure, but also mixed with a little confusion.

If you don't, you will regret it.

Since this is the case, replacing long-term regret with temporary annoyance, this transaction is not a loss.

"It's just sorting out some documents. I'm sorry to trouble you." Maybe his tone was too calm, and there was no sign of lying at all, at least Shiori Xinggong thought so.

She sorted out all the documents that should be sorted out as Fukuzawa Yukichi said.

Mostly because he felt that Xinggong Shiori's efficiency was not high, he simply joined.

"Yes, there are still a bunch of file bags over there." Xinggong Shizhi pointed to the documents placed on the top shelf. Speaking of which, even if she stood on tiptoe, she couldn't reach the top shelf. To get the documents there, you need to move a small stool and step on your feet. Now with the help of Fuze, it saves a lot of effort.

"Let's tidy up the things that I wanted to tidy up before." Shiori Hoshimiya, who just wanted to get rid of her irritability by tidying up things, raised the corners of her mouth at Fukuzawa Yukichi with smiling eyes. The latter raised his hand easily Take off the file bag that has a little dust.

The movement when holding the document is too big, causing the dust to be raised, fluttering, fluttering and flying in the air, absorbing the artificial light of the electric lamp, and emitting a gleaming light.

Holding the file bag in his broad palm, Fukuzawa Yukichi looked at the girl beside him calmly while dusting off the dust from it.

The extremely similar and familiar time flows quietly around the two of them. From his perspective, he can just capture the girl's small and delicate side face.

"And the ones over there." Xinggong Shizhi suddenly spoke again, and clicked on the files on the other side.

"Ah, good." Fukuzawa Yukichi replied briefly.

Sure enough, tidying things up was refreshing enough, and Hoshimiya Shiori felt much more refreshed after arranging all the documents by category.

I looked down at the time, it was nearly eight o'clock, and it was still too late to go home and cook, in fact, I could also buy bento.

Hoshimiya Shiori was thinking about what to do with her dinner when she raised her eyes and saw Fukuzawa Yukichi with a piece of dust rubbed on her cheek.

puff.

Although, it really looks like a cat.

"President, here." She said.

"Where?" Thinking that Xinggong Shizhi was pointing to some other document, he turned his head to look at the bookshelf, but found that the bookshelf had already been tidied up, and he looked at Xinggong Shiori suspiciously.

Xinggong Shizhi shook her head, "It's not the bookshelf, it's here."

While speaking, she nodded her cheek, and Fukuzawa Yukichi wiped off the dust belatedly.

"The documents are all sorted out, so I'll go back first."

"You have worked hard overtime this time, so let's thank you with dinner."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Fukuzawa Yukichi said this sentence very smoothly, as if he had rehearsed it countless times.

Before waiting for Xinggong Shizhi's evasion, he opened the door first, "Then let's go."

Facts have proved that there is no happy overtime in the world!

Together with Yukichi Fukuzawa, we went to the restaurant recommended by him. Fortunately, it was still lively enough to relieve some embarrassment.

The two passed through the lively lobby, and the waiter led them to a quiet compartment, but it was not a completely closed private room. One of the walls was opened, so that the elegant landscape in the courtyard could be seen, and occasionally a deer could be heard sound.

After being seated, she handed over the choice of ordering to Fukuzawa Yukichi.

"Won't this disturb your rest time, President?"

"No."

Good guy, are all of them so empty?

The food was served quickly, and she buried herself in eating the just-cooked tender tofu soup, pretending that this was just an unusual dinner.

It's just that the person who eats with me is Fukuzawa Yukichi.

After drinking the warm soup, the whole person's body and mind are warmed up, and the nerves that have always been tense are also relieved at this moment.

Compared with the comfort of Xinggong Shiori, Fukuzawa Yukichi has become an uncomfortable person, and it is not she who makes him uncomfortable.

It was the feeling of helplessness that he had something in his heart but couldn't talk about that made him particularly at a loss.

"Do you have something to say to me?" Shiori Xinggong was the first to point it out, and brought up the topic, "You seem to want to say something to me."

The continuous honorifics made the distance between people farther away. The most frustrating thing was not the result of the distance, but the fact that she retreated quickly while he was walking towards her.

This is what makes him most powerless.

But what should he say?Directly ask her about today's schedule?Or ask her what happened?

Then in what capacity did he ask?

Is it as the boss?

And real bosses don't care so much.

Through self-examination, all doubts point to a certain fact.

That is, no matter how much he pretends, Hoshimiya Shiori has never been an existence that can be summed up simply by his subordinates.

"...Nothing, I'm just curious about how you spent your rest day."

"On rest days, sometimes I go for a walk in the park, and sometimes I go to the library to borrow books I'm interested in, but most of the time I like to pick an afternoon to bask in the sun." Unexpectedly, the other party just wanted to ask these questions, and she carefully I recalled it in detail, and said all my rest day activities, "I feel a bit like an old man."

"So that's how it is." Following her words, Fukuzawa Yukichi was able to imagine the picture, and the corners of his mouth smiled unconsciously.

The author has something to say:
