"Xiaoqian, you must tell me if you have anything to do. You must not be brave by yourself. I saw you come out of the house after a long time. Where are you going today?"

Listening to Aunt Saiki's enthusiastic and warm words, Amamiya Qianxue couldn't help squinting and smiling.

After she finished speaking, she replied: "I plan to go to the bookstore my parents used to have. It has been abandoned for several years. I want to clean it up today and reopen it."

"This is a good thing. Do you need me and the child's father to help you?"

"No, I can do it by myself, don't worry."

"Okay, are you coming for dinner tonight?"

Amamiya Qianxue shook her head, "I want to clean that place today, but I may not be free, so let's go there tomorrow."

"Then come over tomorrow."

"Uh-huh!"

She waved goodbye to Aunt Qimu who went out to buy vegetables, lowered the brim of her hat and started to go to the bookstore where her parents had left before.

It has been more than a week since I came back here, and after visiting my parents' cemetery, my life is gradually getting back on track.

Amamiya Qianxue decided to find something to do for herself, and she thought of the long-abandoned bookstore. When she chose to live alone, her parents lived there. The first floor was the bookstore, and the second floor was the living room.

If things are cleaned up, and the bookstore gradually starts to improve, then it will not be considered idle. After all, you need a degree without a degree, but it seems that you have no idea what job to look for after graduating from high school.

At this time, she thought of mystery novels, maybe she could go this way?

Or do you mean being commissioned by listing and being a detective?

All kinds of endless thoughts jumped out of her mind, and of course only she knew that if she didn't keep herself busy, she would fall into a state of loss.

Always remember the past.

The bookstore is not far from home, but when she saw the dense spider webs, falling leaves and dense dust, she really wanted to go home directly.

It took her three full days to clean the house.

Now it is estimated that it will take a long time.

The wind that entered the autumn stained the cherry blossom trees next to it with a golden color, and the sunlight was cut into fine pieces by the branches with a few fallen leaves.

A few days ago, the autumn rain washed away the lingering heat, and the yellowed leaves curled up in the air along with the autumn wind, and finally turned into a pool of debris under Amamiya Qianxue's feet.

The door handle is also covered with a thick layer of dust, and the door plate is still slightly rusted.

"They all have to be replaced. It's probably another expense."

Amamiya Qianxue inserted the key into the rusty keyhole, fearing that everything inside would be rusted and could not be opened, but luckily her luck seemed to be completely back to normal, and she did not encounter such a situation.

"I am back!"

Her voice alone echoed in the empty house.There was dust on the furniture, on the floor, everywhere.The wind from opening the door raised the dust, making her cough a little.

"It's really too bad, it's so messy."

After the parents passed away, the bookstore was closed, and Aunt Qimu and Uncle Qimu had to sort out the books inside.

After all, she was in no mood to pack these things at the time.

The rest of the books should have been moved to the second floor, and the bookshelves on the first floor were empty.

Covering her mouth and nose, Amamiya Qianxue walked around the first floor and pushed open the old floor-to-ceiling windows, accidentally shattering the already crumbling glass completely.

It is estimated that this whole set will cost a lot of money to renovate.

She began to worry seriously about money, something that never happened before.

After sighing, she stepped on the wooden stairs, and every time she took a step, there would be a "squeaky" sound, which made her a little worried that she would collapse halfway and step on the ground.

The second floor is used as a living room, and the dust looks much better when the doors and windows are closed, and the books are well stacked on the waterproof cloth.

"It's okay, it just takes a little more time."

At this time, the phone rang, and Amamiya Qianxue looked at the notes of the perverted younger brother on the screen of the phone, and sighed, probably, maybe she asked herself to do coolies for him.

"Hey, tell me something quickly."

"Come to the research room."

"Oh, what are you dealing with today?"

"Handling data, what do you think you're worth as an ape? Don't forget how much trouble you've caused."

"Yes, yes, Sorasuke-sama, I'm coming."

Amamiya Qianxue just hung up the communication, it was really troublesome.

She knew it would be like this...

Although complaints are complaints, there is still one thing that must be done.

It was already late at night when she came out from the research room as a data worker. As for the reward, it was the 200 yen bag of red bean bread from the convenience store in her hand.

The good name is "night snack".

Under the street lamp, Amamiya Qianxue stared at the red bean bread in her hand, her face was full of anger, and she finally sighed.

Night Breeze felt a little cold, she buttoned up her coat, stood in front of the brightly lit vending machine, and after sweeping her eyes one by one, she fixed on the red bean rice cake soup.

The last time I drank it seemed to be late at night several years ago, but it was snatched away by crows after only a few sips.

Amamiya Chiyuki threw in a coin, and before she could press the button for red bean rice cake soup, someone else preempted it.

"Oh, miss, oh no, madam is right, this is for us, how about it?"

A man in extremely revealing clothing that looks like a cowboy is standing next to the vending machine.

Behind him are the remaining few people who are also dressed in similar clothes, and there are even two delinquent teenagers in high school uniforms.

Amamiya Qianxue frowned. She was a minor who came home late and smoked. The patrols around here were not effective.

"Want to play together, ma'am?"

"roll."

She spit out the word with a cold face.

"Hey, hey, don't be so fierce, madam, where's your husband?" He said a slick honorific, and reached out to put his hand on someone's shoulder.

Amamiya Qianxue kicked the opponent's knee, forcing the opponent to kneel down without balance, "Don't you understand?"

At this moment, the rest of the people gathered around.

She just wanted to buy red bean rice cake soup, why did she have to run into such a thing, it was really the fault of the perverted brother, right?

She didn't want to turn around a bunch of people to hand over.

A few minutes later, several people were all beaten to the ground. Amamiya Qianxue clapped her hands and opened the can of Coke that was picked by the man just now, and she poured down the bubbly cold liquid from a height with a cold face.

The brown liquid gushed and gushed, dyeing the man's amber hair a wet brown-black.

She yawned and was about to pull out her mobile phone to call the police when she was dazzled by a dazzling light.

A commotion followed.

"What about people?"

"Run over there."

"I'll go after it."

"Officer Matsuda, be careful, don't beat the arsonist into trouble."

"will not."

Matsuda?

Amamiya Qianxue was stunned, and she couldn't hold the phone firmly.

Probably just the same last name.

She was about to pick up her phone in a panic, and then she saw a figure walking against the light and shadow in the dazzling light around the corner.

She squinted her eyes and looked at her half-dark face, and her slender silhouette was covered with a layer of white light.

Matsuda Zhenping?

No, is she dreaming?

How could she see each other here.

Or was it a prank game that Qi Mukong helped that guy play?

Don't be kidding, how could it appear here.

"Ah, what's going on with this mess?" The people who followed were stunned when they saw the miserable situation next to the vending machine.

"Takagi, I'll catch the arsonist first, and I'll leave it to you here."

As the curly-haired youth said, he climbed up to the nearby roof twice and took a shortcut.

Takagi sighed, Officer Matsuda was still so impulsive.

"Well, this lady, you, wait!!"

Takagi She never thought that the shivering girl who was squatting there just now could run so fast in an instant.

In the night, that Qingwan's figure was as nimble as a cat's. She seemed to be more familiar with the surrounding terrain, and disappeared in a few moments.

The figure left Takagi Tsutomu who hadn't reacted yet and the bad boy lying on the ground.

"how could it be possible?"

"Impossible."

She was talking to herself, she must be dreaming, but the tingling on the tip of her tongue just now told her that she was right.

It will not be a dream.

Then it could only be that the young tamers did something behind her back.

Passing through two alleys, Amamiya Qianxue finally found the person who was exactly like Matsuda Jinpei.

"What's the matter with you?" he asked, tugging at the arsonist's collar.

Yeah, what's the matter with her?

She doesn't know it herself.

Amamiya Qianxue bit her lower lip tightly, hesitated for a few seconds and said, "I want to see if there is anything I can do to help."

"The police are handling the case, and people who are not involved should not approach."

Amamiya Qianxue smiled awkwardly, it was the first time she heard such a fierce and indifferent tone.

"Yeah." She nodded, turned around to leave, and then couldn't help asking: "What's your name, please?"

The other party glanced at her, took out his police officer ID from his pocket, and took it back after a few seconds.

"Go back quickly, don't interfere with the case here."

Amamiya Qianxue was stunned, because the name of the police officer's certificate that flashed by was Matsuda Jinpei.

She leaned on the wall and slowly squatted down.

He buried his head in his knees silently.

Jiaoyue painted an unreal silvery white in Matsuda's field of vision, he stood still, then lowered his head and asked, "Where is your home?"

Amamiya Qianxue raised her head in a daze, "Are you asking me?"

"Otherwise is there a third person?"

Yes, isn't the one dragged by him the third one?

Amamiya Qianxue glanced at the man who had passed out.

"If you don't say that, I'm leaving."

She stood up, and was about to speak when she was interrupted by Takagi She, "Miss, I found you, and now you are suspected of fighting, please go to the nearby Jiaoban with us."

In the unexpected gaze cast by Matsuda Jinhei, she sighed helplessly.

This is the first time Amamiya Qianxue has entered this neighborhood, how could she remember that it shouldn't be like this when she passed by before.

"So they approached you, threatened you, and even attacked you. In the end, you chose to fight back in self-defense, right?"

"Correct."

After finishing some trivial inquiries, Amamiya Chiyuki stared at the broken mobile phone with drooping eyebrows.

Still don't understand why both of them appear.

There must be something wrong in this world, no, she has to find out about it with the perverted brother-in-law.

"It's so late, do you need me to take you back?"

The shadow of Matsuda Jinpei leaning against the car was elongated by the moonlight, and swayed by the wind.

Amamiya Qianxue hesitated for a few seconds before nodding, "Please, Officer Matsuda."

"Oh, get in the car."

During the brief urging, Amamiya Chiyuki stood by the rear door, about to pull the door handle.

The other party rested his arm casually on the lowered car window, tilted his head and said, "Are you treating me as a driver?"

"No, I didn't mean that."

Amamiya Qianxue waved her hand and sat on the co-pilot.

"Address?" Matsuda Jinping asked while preparing to start the car.

She absent-mindedly reported the location of Qi Mukongsuke's laboratory, there were too many things she didn't understand, so she had to ask Qi Mukongsuke to find out.

"This doesn't sound like home, does it? Where does your husband work?"

"It's not home, and I'm not married."

An inexplicable irritability lingered in her heart, and she lowered her eyes to stare at the broken mobile phone.

The other party seemed a little surprised, "Looking at the ring on your hand, I thought you were married."

Hearing the other party mention the ring, she involuntarily stroked the silver-white ring, her brows furrowed tightly.

"So, what do you want from me? Miss Yugong?"

Just in time for a traffic light, he tapped his fingers on the steering wheel again and again.

Amamiya Qianxue pursed her lips, "It's nothing, I just felt that Mr. Police Officer is very similar to someone I knew before, so I couldn't help chasing after him. I admitted my mistake, sorry."

The sound of beating on the steering wheel stopped suddenly, and he chuckled: "Am I some kind of public face?"

"No, I made a mistake."

"Oh, are you motion sick? Or is it that I'm too scared, and I feel that your complexion is not very good."

Amamiya Qianxue shook her head, "No, it might be hypoglycemia."

She made a random excuse, but speaking of it, she hadn't eaten anything since noon, and it was reasonable to say that she had low blood sugar.

Matsuda Jinpei reached out and opened a cabinet, "Do you want to eat? Hypoglycemia is very dangerous. I don't want to send you to the hospital, that would be too troublesome."

Looking at the candies wrapped in colorful tin foil, Amamiya Qianxue looked a little dull, she reached out and picked one at random, and opened it while saying, "Thank you, did you prepare this yourself?"

"Forget it, my girlfriend gave it to me before, and I thought it was not bad, so I bought some more." He replied without squinting.

Amamiya Qianxue's pupils shrank suddenly, she felt that the candy in her hand was terribly hot, she threw the candy back in a hurry, "Then I don't want it anymore."

It was only when she said the words that she realized her complaining tone.

There was a heart-wrenching pain in her chest, a pain that she couldn't ignore.

But I still made up for my tone just now, "Your girlfriend will definitely not be happy after eating it. I'd better not eat it."

Matsuda Jinpei glanced at her, "Is that so? Do you mean jealous? I really want to see her jealous for me once."

"Then don't use me as a tool person, okay?" She almost blurted out a retort.

Then he clenched his palms tightly, biting his lower lip and staring at the ring on his hand.

"I don't have that meaning, I wouldn't do such a thing, besides, Miss Yugong, don't you also have a boyfriend or fiance." He explained a few words casually.

Amamiya Qianxue let out a sigh of relief, didn't answer, but turned her head to look at the night scene outside the car window.

She couldn't utter a word because of the soreness in her chest, and anger surged up from it. She said calmly in her heart, calm down.

But the increasingly obvious emotional exposure made her just want to get out of the car immediately.

"Officer Matsuda, let's stop here. I want to get out of the car. I can walk the rest of the way by myself." Amamiya Qianxue tried her best to maintain a polite smile.

Matsuda Jinpei raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you sure?"

"Well, thank you for seeing me off so late."

But when she carefully looked out the window, her spine felt cold for a moment.

Because this place and Qi Mukongsuke's laboratory are basically two opposite directions.

"Found it?" There was a little smile in his voice, "I got in a strange man's car at midnight, and I wasn't even a little bit wary."

"Where is this going?" Amamiya Qianxue turned her head stiffly.

She was a little puzzled, what was wrong?Is the world wrong, or is the person in front of me wrong?

"At this point, do you still think about the people around you giving you the answer?" He tilted his head and glanced at the other party, with a bit of satisfaction in his brows.

"..."

Amamiya Qianxue was tongue-tied, unable to utter a word, the cold pierced through her bones.

It's all so wrong.

"It's against the law, Mr. Inspector." After a long while, she said such a sentence.

Matsuda Jinhei stepped on the brakes and looked at her rightly, "Let's not say that you are not wary of getting into the car of a strange man, or that you are planning to eat the food provided by the stranger. After you give the address , I didn’t even do the basic checking route. Are you very confident in your own skills, or are you too assured of me?”

He obviously didn't get close, and he still had a smile on his face, but it made Amamiya Qianxue feel creepy.

"Don't, don't be joking, Mr. Police Officer." She said a little stutteringly, "You are a formal criminal police officer with a police officer certificate, you should, no, you don't know the law and break the law."

"Oh, of course." He still smiled lazily, without any negative emotions, "But this also means that if I want to, you have nothing to do."

"Mr. Police Officer, think about your girlfriend, and don't go astray."

"Her? She dumped me a long time ago." Matsuda Jinping said lightly, and started the car again, "After all, Miss Yugong's boyfriend and fiancé are not very reliable, let you go out alone so late Forget it, if you run into something bad and your phone is broken, he doesn't seem to be in a hurry. This kind of scum..."

Before she finished speaking, Amamiya Qianxue slapped her subconsciously, and was stopped by the opponent's hand.

She couldn't stand someone talking about him like that, even with the same face as him.

Matsuda Zhenping's face turned cold, as if he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so violent, he turned the steering wheel suddenly, the tires turned at a high speed, and drifted directly, followed by another acceleration.

Centrifugal force forced Amamiya Qianxue to cling to the back of the car. She gritted her teeth, her expression furious, "What the hell are you trying to do?"

It's a pity that the person in the driver's seat didn't want to answer this sentence, but just accelerated without saying a word.

After a tail flick, it slammed to a stop at the door of an apartment building.

Amamiya Qianxue, who was thrown from the ground and turned dizzy, was immediately enveloped by the approaching figure before she could react.

Matsuda Jinhei propped one hand on the glass, and squeezed his whole body above the co-pilot, looking down at her.

"I can't continue acting, tell me, that address, who is that Saiki Kongsuke? What kind of man can make you so eager to find him in the middle of the night?"

His gray-blue eyes were unblinking, and his voice was so hoarse that he went crazy.

Amamiya Qianxue was stunned, what does it mean that she can't continue acting?She is now at a loss as to what is going on.

The shadow gradually approached, and the breath and heat seemed to wet the cheeks, Amamiya Qianxue pushed subconsciously, and said with a cold face: "Matsuda Jinpei, you are too close!"

"Oh, I'm too close?" He chuckled, "You wear the engagement ring I gave you to find another man, and you say I'm too close?? You hate me so much, so you threw the ring away .”

He was panting, and there was almost twisted desire in his gray-blue eyes.

He leaned down, and when Amamiya Qianxue was in a daze, he pressed her lips close to her lips, and whispered between his ears: "Do you still remember what I said? I said it again for you when I was on the freighter and if I don't remember it." Yes, I came here with the idea of ​​taking you back to the small black room."
