"Senior Brother Sugimoto, did this happen only three days ago in the evening?" asked Sayuri Chiba after listening to Saburo Sugimoto's story.

"No, I have also experienced it in the past two days, because of the elevator falling incident, so I dare not take the elevator, every time I take the corridor, and I dare not work overtime at night. One time was yesterday morning, when I was going upstairs, I heard that voice calling my name, and the other time, just today, I heard that voice calling my name in my office...... I suspect that I am being targeted. Sugimoto Saburo said, his tone was not so frightened, after all, he was also an onmyoji, although his strength was not strong, but for supernatural events, at least he was not as afraid as ordinary people.

"Has Senior Brother Sugimoto already met my grandfather? What did he say?" asked Sayuri Chiba.

"Master asked me to come to Sayuri and say that you have a way to solve it. Saburo Sugimoto said.

Sayuri Chiba hesitated, and then listened to her say, "Senior Brother Sugimoto, I'll go to the Sugimoto Mansion with you in the evening." ”

"Then please, Sayuri. Sugimoto Saburo said solemnly, although he was not afraid of that kind of thing, but he didn't want to live in a cautious life every day, but his own strength was not good, if he had enough strength to deal with it, he would have taken action himself.

After agreeing on a time, the Sugimoto couple took their leave.

After dinner, Li Xuehao saw that Sayuri Chiba was carrying a long package and was about to go out, and knew what she was going to do, but he didn't point it out directly, but said while the melon was not there: "Sayuri, bring it at half past four." ”

Sayuri Chiba was slightly stunned, looked at him, vaguely guessed what he might know, and nodded: "Hmm." Although she didn't know what Four-and-a-half's true body was, she could feel that Four-and-a-half was not an ordinary pet dog.

"Wang~Wang~" Ran over obediently at half past four, and turned around at the feet of Sayuri Chiba, who had already been instructed by the master to protect this hostess.

Seeing Chiba Sayuri go out with half past four in her arms, Li Xuehao didn't pay attention to the reason why she didn't tell her to go out, first, she probably didn't want to trouble him, and second, she probably wanted to try her own strength, and this time she also deliberately brought Chiba Maru with her, you must know that this "divine sword" of Chiba Shrine has not been used for a long time.

As for her safety, having a self-defense ring and a three-tailed demon fox at half past four is enough to run rampant.

Soaking comfortably in a hot bath, Li Xuehao changed his clothes and came to the living room to watch TV with Gua Sheng Mai and a few others.

Sayuri Chiba is not there, her original "throne" is now his and Mizuhashi Kachiko's "home field", and Mizuhashi Ryoko, after returning from the hospital, hid in the room after dinner, not knowing what she was doing alone.

If Li Xuehao hadn't seen that her body was very healthy, he would have wondered if something was wrong with her.

......

On the other side, Sayuri Chiba grabbed a long package and held it at half past four, and came to the Sugimoto Building.

This is an office building belonging to the Sugimoto family, and Sugimoto Saburo is the eldest son of the Sugimoto family, so he gave up his practice because he wanted to inherit the family business.

Early in the morning, Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto were already waiting at the door, and when they saw Sayuri Chiba appearing, they hurriedly welcomed her into the building.

"Sayuri, have you started raising pets now?" Sugimoto Saburo looked curiously at the four and a half in her arms, this cute puppy, he had seen it before, but at that time he thought it was raised by the owner of the house, and now he saw Sayuri in his arms, only to know that she raised it, out of understanding her, this made him very suspicious if it was true.

Sayuri Chiba did not deny it, nodded and looked at the "pet" in her arms and said, "It's called half past four." ”

"Half past four?" Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto had strange eyes in their eyes, this kind of strange name is really rare.

"It's my fiancé's name. Sayuri Chiba continued, rubbing her head at half-past four, as if she didn't realize the "special feeling" that the name brought to others.

"Fiancé?" Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto were taken aback, they had heard from Abbot Chiba that Sayuri Chiba was staying at someone else's house, but they didn't expect that she already had a fiancé.

"You've already met, his name is Koji Manaka. Sayuri Chiba said with a cold face, this was her normal expression, not really cold.

"That's... Manaka-kun is your fiancé?" Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto were taken aback again, and after her introduction, they remembered that the young man who opened the door for them turned out to be her betrothed person, who looked a few years younger than her.

"Yes. Sayuri Chiba replied.

Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto were full of doubts and curiosity, but they hadn't seen each other for a few months, and Sayuri had already had a marriage partner, what was going on? But out of politeness, it was inconvenient for the two to ask in such detail.

"Sayuri, because the elevator hasn't been repaired yet, we can only ask you to take the stairs with us. Saburo Sugimoto's office is on the twenty-third floor, and it's not easy to walk up on two legs without an elevator, so he looks apologetic.

"It's okay, Sens. Sugimoto. "Sayuri Chiba doesn't mind this at all, in fact, it's just right, you can start from the first floor, layer by layer, and look for things that bother Senior Brother Sugimoto.

The three of them began to walk up from the corridor used for emergency escape, Chiba Sayuri held a long package in her left hand, and held four and a half in her right hand, and she would stay for a moment on each floor, contemplating whether there was something hidden in it.

She didn't find anything until she went up to the twenty-third floor, and the four-and-a-half in her arms always seemed very quiet, motionless, and if it weren't for the eyes open, it would almost make people think it was asleep.

Saburo Sugimoto invited Sayuri Chiba to his office, as the eldest son of the Sugimoto family, his office was not luxurious, nor spacious, and it looked a little shabby. He had heard the voice calling his name here during the day today, and the thing staring at him might appear here.

Sayuri Chiba, who walked into the office, intently sensed it, but still didn't find anything. At half past four, who had been quietly shrunk in her arms as a good baby, he suddenly let out a "Wang" sound, and suddenly jumped from her arms to the ground, staring closely at the door of the office.

There, empty, there was no one.

"It's coming!" Chiba Sayuri looked stunned, she finally had a sense, something was coming.

Saburo Sugimoto and Tomoko Sugimoto suddenly tightened their hearts, and the two looked at the door as if they were facing great enemies.
