"I don't know what Ichi-kun has investigated—" She dragged out her voice, a smile slowly spreading through her dark crystal-like pupils.
"And it seems that there are some findings that are so bad that serious people like Ichchi-kun are shaken......" she continued.
Goro Fujita: !!
He hurriedly explained, "No, there is no such thing...... Not shaken. It's just that...... When you think about these bad things, have you ever experienced them, and you feel ...... Felt ......"
He stammered, and began to feel like some words were out of his mind again.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, as if amused by his embarrassed attitude, and the smile became more and more profound.
"Ah~ yes. Ichi-kun didn't waver—" She dragged out her final note, lowered her voice, and said as if she were whispering.
For some reason, Fujita Goro suddenly felt a pang of embarrassment, as if she had said something terrible.
In order to get out of this situation, he coughed lightly, and picked up the teacup at hand—
The teacup is empty.
Goro Fujita: "......"
Kiyohara Yukiha across from him burst out laughing, sat up straight, reached over from the table, picked up the teapot, and refilled a cup for him.
Fujita Goro felt even more embarrassed now.
Fortunately, Qingyuan Yukiye did not chase after him, but filled his teacup with water casually, picked up the half-eaten dumplings, and took a bite.
"That's nice. Ichig-kun, you seriously consider me a companion. She muttered a little, the bitten ball swirling in her mouth until it was pushed to the side of her right cheek, and Fujita Goro watched as a small bag bulged out of her face, looking like a squirrel collecting pine cones in the autumn and hoarding them in her mouth.
Goro Fujita: "......"
He suddenly wanted to laugh a little inexplicably, what to do.
Rarely, he thought so, and did so.
His lips seemed to be unaccustomed to a straight line, then after a few subtle fluctuations, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and quickly returned to their original shape—the subtle curvature that formed and disappeared in an instant would not have been possible if it had not been for the sharp tips of her eyes.
She had just casually pushed the half of the dough around with her tongue in her mouth.
After a few seconds of pause, she slowly hooked her tongue back with her tongue to hold a bulging ball up her right cheek, placed it between the upper and lower rows of teeth, and then slowly squirmed her mouth and chewed, and finally swallowed as if nothing had happened.
For some reason, that look made Goro Fujita want to laugh even more. Perhaps amused by her childish behavior, which was obviously very mature and reliable in other ways, but unexpectedly childish in such a strange place, this time he narrowed his eyes slightly, and a faint smile floated in the corners of his eyes.
…… He seemed to have forgotten for the time being to continue to ask her about Kujo Daoqing and the inside story of the Kujo family behind Kujo Daoqing.
That's good. It's not in vain that she's still selling cuteness here when she's old. Cheongwon Snow Leaf ...... No, Liu Quan thought.
After all, she hadn't forgotten her age in this world. Even if she was re-put on the system, she was merciful and didn't change her appearance much according to the setting of her actual age, but she didn't leave until middle age in the last world - Harry Potter - this kind of adult face more or less brought a sense of heaviness, making her feel that she now has to break through her psychological limit every time she sells cuteness.
However, due to the rules of the system, it is impossible for her to tell everything about the Kujo family, including Kujo Daoqing. Even if those dark truths are to be discovered, it can only be done by Xiaoyi herself, not from her.
However, after so many years, and even between life and death, Xiao Yi is still so straightforward and cute.
As soon as he found out the unthinkable facts, he came to her and played straight, as if he was convinced that she would be the same as before, and would help him in all the difficult things he encountered.
…… But this is not a question to be given, Yijun. If I reveal the answer to you, it will be a gift for me, and for everyone in this world.
Thinking so, Liu Quan decided to pull the direction of the topic a little more crookedly.
"Na," she leaned forward suddenly, with an interesting look on her face, her chin propped up, leaning forward, her eyes shining brightly.
"Speaking of which—it's been so long since we've seen each other again, isn't it...... Aside from the case and the results of the investigation, there is nothing else you want to say to me?"
For some reason, it was obviously a very ordinary question, but Fujita Goro felt embarrassed for a moment.
"Don't, what ......else?!" he repeated the key words in this sentence in a daze, and for some reason felt a surge of blood, his head was agitated by this impulse, and his face was hot.
"Hey, yes. She smiled and said, "Say nice things — things I want to hear." Isn't this a beautiful scene that fits the reunion of old friends~"
"Nice, nice words, ......?" Fujita Goro looked even more dazed, repeating her request with a thoughtful look on his face.
"That...... What do you like to hear?" he didn't seem to know what she wanted to hear, so he simply followed the serious attitude - hit a straight ball.
She looked a little surprised.
"You...... Ask me?!"
Fujita Goro nodded solemnly.
"Since it's what you want to hear, I think only you know best what will make you happy. If you don't think you're happy to say that by yourself, and that you have to be replaced to make you happy, you can tell me the answer, and I'll take it very seriously and say it to you. ”
Liu Quan: "......"
“…… It's really dull, Yikun. She paused for a moment, sighed lowly, and couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Yi looked very confused.
“…… The word seemed very new to him, and he thought for a moment before continuing, "...... Do you mean that my five senses are not working? But I don't think my body is that unhealthy, right?"
Liu Quan: "......"
Laughed by this natural confusion for a moment, she suddenly shook her head and burst out laughing.
"Well...... Actually, there is no special standard for this kind of thing, probably ...... It's something like a concern, isn't it?" she said, as if it were a real thing.
Fujita Gorou thought about it very seriously—and with a little distress—in a little distress. Then, he took a deep breath.
"Okay, okay. He said a little obsessively. Immediately—to her right hand!
Liu Quan: ?
"You, your right hand...... I remember stabbing you that night. He seemed to have a hard time telling the terrible truth that I had inadvertently hurt my companion, staring with concern at her intact right hand, which looked like it had never been injured.
Liu Quan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly wanted to laugh again.
She generously put down the teacup, and just spread her right hand on the table and stretched it out in front of him, palm up, fingers spread out.
"You can see for yourself. She said generously.
Goro Fujita: ?!
Although an emotion like embarrassment and shame (?) immediately surged in his heart, he still endured the bad emotion, coughed to dispel the subtle atmosphere that suddenly floated, and boldly stretched out his hand-
He shook the hand that was spread out on the table.
Liu Quan: ?!
Now he was holding her hand. It seemed to have happened several times before—but this time, when he took her hand, he felt the hand in his palm like never before, the skin was smooth, the fingers were white and long, and although the palm had a small callus or two due to the long holding of the knife, it was unexpectedly soft. The touch brought a burning sensation like a flame almost instantly, and he felt his face heat up a little again.
Goro Fujita coughed vigorously to alert himself. He gathered his attention and looked at the hand.
There are no scars on the palms, nor on the fingers.
He slowly flipped the hand over.
There doesn't seem to be any scar on the back of the hand.
He thought about the whole process of the two of them fighting that night. How she went under the knife and how he responded, every movement was like in front of him.
Then, without warning, he suddenly took her hand with one hand, and pulled up the sleeve of her shirt that reached the back of her hand with the other.
A look of surprise appeared on her face for a moment.
At the same time, a wrist wrapped in a white cloth appeared unobstructed in front of him.
She heard him gasp as if unconsciously.
"Well, this, it's really fine......" she hurriedly spoke to try to remedy it. "You're too worried, Yijun ......"
At the same time, she hurriedly tried to retract her hand. However, he held it tightly, and she pumped her hand twice to no avail.
…… Ah, those introverted and simple shy attributes of the little one will suddenly disappear in a strange place.
Liu Quan couldn't help but think so.
The next second she heard his stern voice.
"Here, are you hurt? ”
She subconsciously replied, "No—"
"Snow Leaf-kun. ”
He was unusually serious—even a harsh and harsh voice interrupted her.
She was slightly startled and raised her eyes to look at him.
“…… Please don't lie. He paused for a moment, then said earnestly in a solemn tone.
Maybe that's not what you like to hear...... Still, I'll say it. ”
"When something happens, can you think about trusting and relying on your companions?"
Willow Springs: !!
Xiao Yi suddenly sighed, and carefully put her hand back on the table, not as he had done on the previous two occasions, he had to untie the white cloth wrapped around her hand, check the injury, and give her medicine.
"If you keep doing this, you can't do it. He said.
Liu Quan: "...... What?"
Xiao Yi's expression became more serious.
“…… I thought that by smiling, I could cover up all the dangerous things you wanted to do. ”
Liu Quan: "What ...... you say?!"
Her words were almost rhetorical, her voice trembled, and she looked at Xiao Yi across the table in dismay.
His left hand still covered her right hand, the thin calluses of his palm scraping against the smooth skin on the back of her hand, as if he was launching some terrible attack, and she had no clue how to resist this natural attack.
He said with great seriousness, "I want you to trust me more." ”
Liu Quan: "......"
Oops, completely speechless by this series of words, swollen and broken.
Moreover, Xiaoyi's natural offensive that was completely intuitive, continued.
"Although...... I don't know why I'm giving you the illusion that 'it's not worth relying on at critical moments'—"
Liu Quan only then regained his voice, and hurriedly opened his mouth to interrupt Xiao Yi's dangerous reasoning before he could think about it.
"No, not ......!!! I've always been ......"
However, Xiao Yi obviously regarded her argument as perfunctory. He looked her in the eye solemnly and said very seriously:
“…… But I'll try to be a companion you can rely on. I'm sure I can do it. ”
Willow Springs: !!
Her eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at the young man across the table. And he looked back at her with a tense jaw and a solemn expression, as if he were expressing his determination with this look.
After what seemed like a long time, she suddenly burst out laughing softly.
"Yijun, I must not know what I just said...... that relaxed and playful look returned to her face, and there was a light teasing in her voice.
Goro Fujita: ?
Looking at his question mark expression, a bright smile spread across her face like a tide.
"Well~ If you take this kind of awareness, I think the role of the 'suitor' in the future will be able to fully perform. She laughs.
Fujita Goro: "Chasers and suitors......?!"
Then he saw that mysterious smile that seemed to have a "yes, I know the answer, but I just won't tell you" came to her brow.
He heard her say, "That's right. …… Isn't this the kind of thing necessary to be done in order to get close to the Kujo family and continue the investigation?
…… So how did she say yes after all! Obviously, she decided it on her own, didn't she?
He suddenly felt tired. However, he had become accustomed to adjusting at her pace, so he had no intention of arguing against such an arbitrary decision, but thought about it seriously for a while, and then became distressed.
"Is it really-really?" he asked, distressed.
Ah~Ah, the face of Koichi, who was troubled by huge questions and puzzles, looked really ...... Delicious, huh?
Thinking so, Liu Quan flashed a bigger smile at him, triumphant and unabashed.
"Well...... Didn't you just say that you want me to trust you with confidence?" she casually threw Xiao Yi's serious admonition on his face.
Sure enough, it caused a huge amount of damage. The opponent looks like the ideological defense line has completely collapsed.
"Yes, that's right......" he said hesitantly, and then his face seemed to flush a faint blush as he remembered the content of the difficult task.
"But, but, really...... Really, that, pursuit...... "He stumbled and stumbled, and it was extremely difficult.
She blinked and called him happily, "...... Yijun. ”
Goro Fujita: ?
She smiled.
"I'm looking forward to it. She whispered, "...... Your pursuit. ”
