55. I'm busy

When I opened the envelope, it simply and straightforwardly read, "Please come to Damocles' counseling room." This time, the client's signature is Tetsuya Kuroko.

Basketball guys like to write letters. She complained this summer, and she didn't want to pay attention to it, but she found that the door of Matsushita's house was locked, and she couldn't see Takasugi anyway, so it was better to go to Damocles.

As a result, there was no stranger named Kuroko Tetsuya here, but he saw Seishiro Akaji again.

Damocles' people told SΓΉ this summer, and the table that Kuroko Tetsuya had booked was where Akaji was sitting.

Well, again.

What did Akaji do to make everyone so nervous to ask himself to help him? Also, once or twice, how can it be like a joke to create opportunities for future young couples who haven't confessed yet? Is it okay not to do this? She is pursuing (?) Takasugi also asked her, "What stage have we reached?" This means that their relationship is still very unstable, okay? She and Takasugi both have big hearts in this regard, doesn't mean they don't mind! Even if you don't have that meaning, there will inevitably be misunderstandings!

Not only this summer, but Akaji's side was not happy either.

When he saw that the person who came to the agreed place was not Kuroko, but this summer, his already expressionless face became even more gloomy, with a strong sense of oppression.

"Letter of Entrustment." Push the letter over this summer.

"I told you to leave it alone." Akaji's tone was stiff. He'd love to blame it on this summer. But looking at the unhappy attitude of this summer, he didn't know what to say, so he said such a sentence.

Jinxia took a deep breath, and then said helplessly: "Because the client has changed, I didn't know that this time it was also related to you." ”

Akaji was silent for a few seconds, and finally said, "I see." From this moment on, they won't trouble you anymore. ”

Hey, hey, hey! I don't know what kind of world you're from, but this sentence sounds like you're going to kill these two people who care about you! This summer complained in her heart, seeing that Akaji's face didn't look like he was joking, she said, "Hmm, the root cause is, what did you do to worry them, right?" As long as they stop worrying about you, they won't bother me. ”

I don't know if I realized it this summer. She has always been a "good leader who is not afraid of hardship, tiredness, or trouble", and the crack opened in an instant just now.

"I have nothing to worry about." Akaji took a sip of the black tea on the table, and put it down with a frown.

"Go and say that to them. I'm not worried about you. Said this summer.

Akaji raised his eyes to look at her, then lowered his eyes again: "Tea?" ”

So I sat down this summer.

"You're busy, aren't you?" Akaji didn't want to touch a table of desserts this summer, and only drank tea.

This summer pushed the yokan over: "yes, I'm busy." This one is delicious and not so sweet. ”

Akaji hesitated, poked a small fork, and barely took a bite. It was evident that he was not very good at eating at a petite table that could only accommodate two people. "You've been in the media a lot lately," he said. ”

Jin Xia nodded: "So I'm going to go back early today to rest, and I have a few photos to take tomorrow, although they are black and white, but there are dark circles under the eyes that can be seen." ”

"......" Akaji looked at her deeply, not knowing what to say.

This summer's "busy" is really busy. He had never seen a woman like this. At first, his knowledge of this person was only in rumors. The rumors about her were exaggerated, exaggerated to the point that he instinctively resisted. Seriously, Akaji's initial impression of this person is not good: taking advantage of people's danger (Tsunayoshi), borrowing a knife to kill (Tsurumaru), wolf bèi being a traitor (Hisoka), plus the people around her always sing praises for her, even acquaintances say so, the more Akaji feels that this summer with remote brainwashing function is definitely not a good type.

Recent contacts have confirmed part of his thoughts: that he is an ambitious man this summer. At the same time, it also overturned his idea: she was a simple person to get along with.

"Uh, you don't have to bother? Since there's nothing I need to do, why don't you eat at a regular shared table? You try this, it's boiled and then pressed out with a mold, it's beautiful, right? ”

Look. It's that simple.

Akaji didn't pick up her snacks, but he didn't get up to leave. He sent a message to the gods: "I am not as leisurely as you." After saying that, he thought to himself, at this time, he just had to pretend not to hear.

This summer, I swallowed my snack and said, "Then you can take it easy." ”

"I thought people like you could understand, but it doesn't seem to be." Akaji adjusted his sitting posture, his eyes fell on the snack plate that had been emptied, and his mood was more complicated: as a public figure who is often on the media road, he is too inattentive to body management, does this woman know what self-control is?

This summer, I rang the bell and ordered a few more foods, each of which was a high-calorie sweet that made the conversation between athletes and idols change. She glued the corners of her mouth with a tissue and asked, "Eh~ What do you mean?" ”

"Intelligent, under pressure, the youngest mayor." Akaji didn't sing the praises to her like the idiots, and reluctantly mentioned what he had to admit.

This summer unceremoniously accepted the compliment: "Ah, it seems to be." So? ”

"Do you want to say that these results fell out of thin air?" Actually let him take it easy? Even when he came into this world, he never let up.

"Not exactly." This summer even admitted part of it without shame, and said: "My luck is a little better, and I don't care too much about some unimportant things." Ah, speaking of which, in order to inherit the family business, I used to live a hard life that I didn't want to mention anymore. ”

Akaji looked at her calmly, and he thought that this was the truth about "Miss Butterfly in Nit Town". She is just like herself, she has undergone a lot of tests and education, and finally became the perfect image of a monster today. What will she look like when she tears open this layer of appearance?

This summer went on to say, "Almost...... It's been four months, and it's better to live than to die. It wasn't until later that my economics teacher wrote me a love letter. ”

"Huh?!" What the heck? Akaji, who accepted that he might be similar to himself this summer, had just calmed down and took a sip of tea, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but stop his movements and look at her.

"At that time, I was only in junior high school, and the teacher was in his forties, unmarried, and not handsome, although he was very financially savvy." The subtext is "I don't like him".

"Ahem." Akaji took a deep look at this summer: he was delusional just now, and this woman was different from him. His junior high school ...... It's not so ......

"After the teacher was dismissed from the school, my father started teaching me himself." This summer pursed her lips and smiled, "At that time, the school happened to have a place to recommend a high school to study in Tokyo, so I submitted an application. "Of course, it's behind my back.

Akaji also understood how she operated, so he asked, "Running away from home?" ”

"No, it's going to study away from home. As long as there is a high-sounding excuse, no one will ask about the process. "I ate all the snacks this summer and started drinking tea with satisfaction.

"He just let you go?" When Akaji speaks of him, he refers to his father this summer.

"Yes~" This summer nodded confidently: "I'm not interested in cooperating with other people's preferences and going the way they want to go." I'm busy. ”

This sentence was said so domineering that Akaji's hand holding the teacup paused.

Maybe that's how they're different.

Akaji, by nature, is a gentle man.

Not this summer. This summer is the kind of person who prioritizes satisfying his desires/desires when there is a conflict between "what he wants" and "what others expect".

There's no way to tell which one is right.

"So you're not going to inherit the family business?" If the previous conversations were all about passing the time, then the conversation that started now is the one that Akaji continues to have if he wants to really get to know her.

"Hmm!" This summer replied very calmly: "When I was in elementary school, I thought about this question. If I didn't have a goal in high school, it didn't matter if I made their dreams a goal. If I had something to do, I wouldn't inherit anything they said. Ah, it's a big deal to recruit a ready-made son-in-law who has already been raised by a few families...... Everything's settled. ”

"Ahem, ahem." Akaji's face was stern, and his cheeks were crimson: "There is still this trick......"

"There are a lot of tricks~" This summer's tone is brisk: "Life is very busy, I have thought of a lot of ways to make myself more leisurely!" After all, it's fun to be busy for your own business, and it's so boring to be busy for inexplicable things. ”

"Hmph. I'll grudgingly agree with you. Akaji poured himself tea, hesitated, and poured her a cup as well.

"Thank you." This summer smiled, feeling that the boy opposite was no longer as difficult to get close to as he was at the beginning. She thought for a moment and spoke, "Your friends...... I seem to be worried about you. I'm not in a position to ask what happened. But I think it's better for you to explain it to them yourself. ”

Akaji said lightly, "I'm not in any particular situation. ”

Jin Xia nodded: "Then have you ever wondered what is the situation with them?" ”

"......" Akaji's eyes could keep looking into her eyes, and he said, "You're right. Midorima gave you that letter, and left the next day. ”

"Huh?" The hand that folded the napkin into a rabbit suddenly stopped: "The shackles are untied? ”

"Hmm."

"That'...... Could it be that he knows that he is leaving, and he is not at ease with you? ”

"Huh." Akaji responded with a sarcastic smile, "What do I have to worry aboutβ€”"

"Wait." Interrupted him this summer. "Then, what about Kuroko?" Did the gentleman named Tetsuya Kuroko also leave? ”

"What does that mean?" Akaji's brow furrowed, and he sensed something when he saw this summer's expression.

"Well, it's getting late, I have to go back." This summer looked at the new watch and said apologetically, "You noticed something was wrong?" That's good. I don't think there's anything wrong, but I don't know you and your friends, so I don't know what to do. Anyway, take care! Good bye. With that, she hurried away.

Akaji sat down in his chair, finished the cup of tea, and stood up. Something really isn't right. He had to do something.

The third letter of entrustment received this summer, the client became Seijuro Akaji.

The letter was sent directly to her phone...... Sms. However, there are a lot of formats that should be there, but the serious content is only a few words: contact with this person. This is followed by a string of numbers.

It looks like it's very secretive.,It's not quite like the character of the upright and domineering Akaji she knows.。 However, there was no need for others to text themselves under his name, and this summer decided to see what was going on.
