My daily life in a tavern

Then he drank his coffee by himself.

The expression on his face became: a bit colder than before.

Seeing this, Uesugi Hideichi just smiled lightly.

He thought for a while and asked suddenly.

"Do you not like sugar in your coffee, or do you simply dislike sweet coffee?"

Kirishima Touka heard this, raised her head, and stared at him with indifferent eyes.

"Is that your problem?"

"what"

Uesugi Hideichi is a little unclear.

Then answer.

"Yup."

"I just think it would be a shame to add sugar to this robusta blend."

Dong Xiang replied, with a look of disappointment in her eyes.

Uesugi Hideo nodded.

He also noticed that he didn't seem to be very good at chatting with girls. The two questions he asked just now were quite embarrassing.

Forget it or don't talk.

Just enjoy it quietly.

Uesugi Hideichi thought so, put his hand on his chin, and silently stared at the girl in front of him.

Kirishima Touka picked up the teacup and drank the coffee, feeling the burning eyes from the other side.

On the fair cheeks on both sides, a slight blush appeared involuntarily.

There were also some doubts in my heart.

"Why is he looking at me like that?" "Could it be, is there something dirty on my face?" "Or, I just want to look at me..." Feilu reminds you: three things to read, bookmark, recommend

Chapter 200 Brother deserves luck! (Please subscribe, please order all!)

Dong Xiang thought so, and felt her cheeks getting hotter and hotter.

She held a cup of coffee and drank it for a minute or two.

Just put it down slowly.

Then with a blush on his face, he stared at Uesugi Shuichi in front of him.

"Why do you keep staring at me"

"If you don't look at me, how do you know I'm looking at you"

When Uesugi Shuichi heard the words, he smiled lightly and answered calmly.

"you...!"

When Touka Kirishima heard this answer, her mouth was filled with suffocation, feeling that she couldn't get out of breath.

Her originally indifferent expression had now turned into anger and... shyness.

Various thoughts in mind.

It's constantly surging up and down.

"You were sullen just now, I thought you were unhappy.

So I want to comfort you, but because I don't know how to talk to girls.

It was embarrassing to say two words.

I can only appreciate your appearance while drinking coffee first, and think of other ways."

Seeing the girl's expression, Uesugi Shuichi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he explained to the girl.

When Touka Kirishima heard his words, she was slightly taken aback, and immediately a wave of warmth surged in her heart.

The angry look on her face also gradually dissipated.

Just because I was embarrassed, I pretended to be angry.

"It's really nosy, Dong Xiang pouted, pretending to be dissatisfied and said.

Uesugi Shuichi looked at her expression and knew the girl's guilt for rejecting him before, and some unhappiness before.

It's all faded a lot.

Then he showed a gentle smile.

Said in a soft voice.

"Can you tell me something about your past? I'm a little curious."

He really wanted to know what the girl who was a ghoul had experienced before.

Only then will it become the character it is now, with a protective shell covering its appearance.

"Ago."

When Touka Kirishima heard this, her expression suddenly darkened.

In her mind, the gentle and kind face of her father Kirishima Shin suddenly appeared.

And those... warm and beautiful times when I was a child.

Thinking of these... Dong Xiang felt a pain in her heart.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Seeing her expression, Uesugi Hideichi said quickly.

He could see what happened to Touka Kirishima before.

Surely full of sad memories.

"Actually, I was very happy when I was a child."

Kirishima Touka was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly.

She quickly recounted her previous experiences.

"Although it is a long time ago, it is still fresh in my memory.

My father's name is Kirishima Shin, and he is very gentle to me and my younger brother.

My mother's name is Kirishima Kou, and she loves me and me very much.

Our family is very warm, happy and harmonious.

Until my mother was able to protect me and my brother in order to gain strength.

Choose to eat a lot, but was killed by the investigator.

Our family has embarked on a path of fragmentation.

In order to avenge his mother, the father also kept eating.

in spite of....

Be it humans or ghouls, all of them are regarded as hunting targets by him.

The final result... still cannot escape the expulsion of the investigator.

According to my estimation, he is also dead.

After both my parents died.

The only family member left is my uncle, with his help.

Only then can I go to work in an antique coffee shop to obtain a source of food to sustain life.

and a safe haven for survival.

This is my story..."

Kirishima Touka spent a few minutes, speaking in a very flat tone.

Talk about your previous experience.

Although the tone is very flat, it seems to be talking about a very common thing.

But Uesugi Shuichi, still from the words just now.

I heard some pain and sorrow that went deep into the bone marrow.

He also learned from what Kirishima Touka told.

I realized the sadness of this species of ghouls.

The first is Dong Xiang's mother, who keeps eating for strength.

Why is she pursuing power? Because without power, she can't guarantee her husband and two lovely children.

Don't be expelled by the investigators, and don't be devoured by other ghouls! Only by gaining power can you avoid these... tragic encounters.

Only then have the qualifications to survive and protect the family members! But.

The pursuit of power is an extremely dangerous path.

It will face the expulsion of the search officer and the struggle of other ghouls.

Kirishima Kou was killed by the inspector while traveling on this road.

And the chain reaction of her being killed is... Kirishima Touka's father.

In order to avenge his wife, he must continue to eat humans and even ghouls to gain strength.

So that he was also expelled by the investigator.

final result.

That is...their originally happy and harmonious family was completely torn apart! Uesugi Shuichi thought for a moment, then sighed.

The fate of ghouls seems to be like this.

In order not to be eaten, seek strength.

Killed for seeking power.

And for revenge, the family began to pursue power again... This is a death cycle! It is like a closed cage, imprisoning all ghouls in it.

Let them spend their whole life without being able to escape! Fate is always surrounded by cruelty and death.

"Growing up in such a background, Kirishima Touka was able to maintain a kindness and gentleness in her heart.

It's really rare."

Uesugi Shuichi sighed in his heart.

"We ghouls are such a species, cruel and merciless.

So you understand how unwise it is to take me here as an assistant."

Kirishima Touka gently squeezed the coffee cup with her slender and fair fingers.

In the beautiful purple gemstone eyes, there is a look of sadness and pain.

"Will you still be my assistant?"

Uesugi Shuichi asked suddenly.

"what"

Hearing this, she couldn't help raising her head, and looked at the young man in front of her with surprised eyes.

There was a gentle smile on Uesugi Shuichi's handsome face.

There was a seriousness in his eyes.

He's not joking.

Instead, he really intends to let himself be his assistant.
