4.Chapter.3 The snail girl

Click.

Maki Uragaki, who came out rubbing his eyes, glanced into the room, and it was empty. I went to the bathroom and picked up the toiletry cup I brought yesterday, and stuffed the toothbrush into my mouth, and the original state of confusion eased.

She glanced at the alarm clock next to the bed just now, it was already half past ten in the morning, and this point of ninja was obviously not at home. Umegaki Maki, who worked as a manager in the Diguang Basketball Club, of course knows that although it is spring break now, as long as there is a sports club with a little ambition, there is no need to suspend the work of the department.

After washing, I found a packet of soda crackers and a carton of milk on the table. Zhenji tore open the bag and stuffed three biscuits casually, but he didn't want to eat them, purely to pad his stomach, and the stomach acid king of the province was very powerful. When I opened the refrigerator, I didn't expect her to come back early, except for some milk and eggs in the refrigerator, there was basically nothing else.

Ah, forget it, let's go out for lunch.

Before leaving, I glanced at my phone and found an unread email.

From:Qinghe

"I'm fine, I met a Japanese lady today to show me the way."

As soon as I got off the plane last night, I reported my safety to my mother, Umegaki Kiyokazu, and I don't know if it was the time difference or if she forgot the time in the real yΓ n room again, and now I have only received a reply.

Sure enough, it is useful to tell her that she must report something, otherwise she will only receive the words "I'm fine".

Maki put away his phone, walked to a nearby inexpensive family restaurant, ordered a beef rice to replenish his energy, went to a convenience store to buy drinks, and found a new magazine with Ryota Kase as a cover model, so he habitually bought it out of his pocket. I went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, and Zhenji remembered that his family should be missing a mop, so he simply bought them together, carrying a shopping bag in one hand and his sponge mop in the other.

"Bridge Bean Sack !!"

Umegaki Maki, who was still some distance away, found that the elevator door was about to close, and shouted at the girl who had already walked in, and the other party also pressed the door button with face, she rushed up in three steps and two steps, and as soon as she entered, she wanted to say thank you to the girl who helped.

No one was more excited than her.

"Huh? It was yesterday...... Yes! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! ”

Umegaki Maki, who finally saw the appearance of this girl, found that the girl in front of her was actually the girl who rode like a bicycle yesterday! The other party was the same as yesterday, another stack of apologies, and that very standard 90-degree bow.

has already appreciated the other party's persistent apology method, Umegaki Maki hurriedly thought about opening the topic: "I'm fine, I also helped deal with the senior's wound yesterday, it's okay." Ay! By the way, what a coincidence, do you live here too? ”

Only then did the girl stop apologizing and answer Maji's question, "Ah, yes, I live on the seventh floor. ”

Seventh floor?!

As he spoke, the number of the elevator had become "7", and the elevator door opened, and Maki stepped out with his own things, grinning at the somewhat stunned girl: "Haha! It's a coincidence that I also live on the seventh floor, but I just moved here yesterday. ”

Apparently unexpectedly by this coincidence, the girl almost didn't realize that the elevator door was about to close. After both of them walked out, the girl bowed again, "My name is Kyoko Mogami, and I'm really sorry yesterday!" ”

Zhenji, who really couldn't spare his hand, could only shake the mop in his hand, "Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, it's not a big deal, don't take it to heart." My name is Maki Umagaki, and now we should be neighbors, so please take care of me. ”

Kyoko Mogami originally belonged to the kind of person who was very persistent about the mistakes she made, and Ryo Shishido's wound yesterday did look quite bluffing, so she is really full of guilt now. Just now I heard Umegaki Maki say that she had just moved over, and she was holding a mop in her hand, as if she was going to move and clean, she blurted out directly: "I'm really sorry!" Can I help with the cleaning? Please! ”

After finishing speaking, seeing Zhenji's slightly surprised look, she realized that she was too impulsive, and hurriedly remedied: "Yesterday...... Uh, I really ...... yesterday Yes...... I think...... In a word...... I'm sorry...... I ......"

Seeing that the other party wanted to make up for yesterday's mistakes, and was afraid of being regarded as a suspicious person, he didn't know how to explain it for a while, looking at her hurried appearance, Maki felt that he was about to see the mosquito coils in the eyes of this girl named Mogami Kyoko.

Although it wasn't yesterday, the other party was still wearing an old-fashioned tracksuit, which was completely different from the female high school students in Tokyo, and she wore a ponytail that exposed her forehead, which looked quite rustic at first glance, like the kind of girl who had just arrived in Tokyo from the countryside, and to be honest, it was a little out of place with this new apartment.

Although he looks very flustered, what Maki can feel the most is the tenacity of the other party.

…… I felt that if she didn't atone for her sins, she would have to apologize on the spot!!

"Sorry for your trouble, thank you." Originally, Mei Yuan Maki wanted to catch the strong man of the ninja foot warrior to clean up, but he may have been really shocked by this girl's momentum, so he somehow agreed, and only added after a second or two: "I was busy going to work yesterday, won't it be delayed today?" ”

Hearing Maki's response, Kyoko Mogami finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Ah! Be! This afternoon's part-time job was temporarily canceled, so I came back after the noon work. ”

At this point, Maji, who had an extra helper, took out the key, opened the door of his house first, and put the mop inside, the house was still the same as it had been renovated a few months ago, and there was already a layer of floating ash on the wooden floor. Her suitcases were packed and stacked together, because of the temporary change in the itinerary abroad, so these suitcases were still received with the help of the servant, and as he said yesterday, they were not opened.

Maki took out a pair of slippers and beckoned Mogami Kyoko to come in, there was nothing in the house anyway, she wanted to stuff the ingredients she bought into the refrigerator of Shinobu Yushi first, so she said to Mogami Kyoko: "I'll go next door and put down my things, please come in first, I haven't cleaned it yet, so I can stand for a while now." ”

"Huh? Is it the room on the right? I remember it was a boy with glasses...... "Kyoko Mogami subconsciously covered her mouth when she realized that she shouldn't say more, and it was inevitable that she would meet several times when she lived on the same floor, not to mention that she had to get up early every day to work, and she had to get up early to participate in the training of the tennis club, and the number of encounters was really a lot.

Even if she is not interested in boys other than Xiao Shang at all, this boy with round glasses is tall and handsome, and he is really not the type that can be ignored.

There's another important reason - the uniforms of the Ice Emperor School Park are too gorgeous for some reasons.,The materials are exquisitely designed and exquisite.,It's exactly the same as the school uniform of the perfect high school life with pink bubbles in the heart of the Kyoko girl.,It's really hard to forget.。

"Mogami-san, have you ever seen Yushi? That's right, I live on the first floor. Maki smiled and waved his hand out the door, "He's me...... Cousin, I do live next door, but I'm not here now, I'm going to school to participate in club activities, and I'll probably be back later. ”

This apartment was built not long ago, and due to the convenient transportation, complete facilities, and Eri-sama, I think it is good (!). These three reasons were originally decided by Erina.

Shinobu and his wife don't care too much about these matters, and Umegaki Maji's mother, Umegaki Kiyokazu, doesn't have the experience of financial management and property at all, and the two little ones are temporarily defined as "cute children~" by Erina Adult, so from purchase to decoration are fully taken care of by Shinobu Erina.

It turns out that the eldest sister is a spicy and wise god! It came in handy so quickly!

Before their mother went abroad, the mother and daughter rented a house near Ugaki Kiyokazu's research institute, which was also close to Tekotsu Middle School. So the home decoration on this side of the apartment is very complete, but the personal belongings have not been moved over, and the things are packed in real seasons before going abroad.

Put the ingredients away quickly, and when she returned to her apartment, Zhenji took out all the cleaning tools at home, and tore off the packaging of the newly bought mop, knowing that she was too polite now and would make this girl uncomfortable, "Can you help clean the living room?" I'll clean my bedroom first. ”

Although there is nothing in the bedroom, but after all, it is a private space, and it is not easy to let people help, I don't know if Mogami Kyoko has taken into account the real season's Xiao Jiujiu, she responded very neatly, and then directly picked up the rag, and began to wipe the table in the living room with great energy.

Whew!!

Although the other party didn't roar so angrily, it just made people think that she was cleaning up with the attitude of exploding the small universe.

The infected girl walked into her bedroom, rolled up her sleeves and began to wave her youth.

Fortunately, the home is not very dirty, it belongs to the level of scrubbing and washing that you can move in, and the cardboard boxes marked with your personal belongings are also put in, probably because the forbearance of the foot Yu Shi helped to order the moving company. After clearing the floor and tabletop, Maki unpacked his box and put the books and some knick-knacks in place.

Girls are always extra slow when they pack up their old things, even if there is no love letter that can be taken out to recall for half a day, when the real season is completely cleaned up, it will be a long time ago.

She finally didn't forget that there was a girl from the top of the day who came to help, and hurriedly walked out with a basin of water.

"Mogami Mulberry ......"

The words are not finished yet, if it weren't for the fact that Zhenji still has a little concentration, he would have fallen into the pot at this time.

οΌ―ο½’ο½š

…… Wo Groove suddenly felt that what he had cleaned up was a dog kennel.

The whole living room is so neat that it is almost shining with holy light!!

Stunned, Maki Uragaki twisted his neck, only to find that not only the living room, but also the bathroom with the open door next to it had obviously been cleaned.

Looking at the results of the living room, she didn't even have to go in to imagine that the bathtub in the bathroom must be polished now! Light! Tile! Bright!

She watched as the snail girl came out of the kitchen, and the kitchen that Maki was supposed to not plan to use for the time being had been cleaned spotlessly. Seeing Umagaki Maki's stupid expression, Kyoko Mogami thought that the other party was angry that she was running around the room, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry!" I finished cleaning the living room and saw ......"

This strength and speed are simply ashamed to death - the real girl who feels that her femininity has fallen to a negative value has a solemn expression: "Ah, no. Mogami Mulberry is too ...... Clean! I'm a little surprised, and I helped! Please wait for me, I'll go next door to get refreshments. ”

Miss Jingzi breathed a sigh of relief, scratched her head and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm better at these." ”

Kyoko Mogami has indeed thoroughly cleaned the living room, bathroom, and kitchen, after all, she is also a resident here, and she is still very clear about the layout of the apartment, looking around the whole apartment, except for the side bedroom that Maki just went into, there is only one master bedroom left uncleaned, and she has obviously realized that the bedroom is not suitable for her own help.

Hearing Maki say that she was going to bring refreshments to her, Kyoko Girl, who was most afraid of causing trouble to others in her life, quickly replied: "I'm very sorry for what happened yesterday!" It's great to be able to help, I'm in trouble with Umegagaki-san today! I'll take my leave! ”

Zhenji watched as this snail girl, who specializes in benefiting people and has no self-interest, rushed to the entrance with the momentum of a whirlwind and stealing bells.

I thought about it for a while, I didn't buy snacks today, I bought it yesterday and ate it with the people of Xiang Riyue, and I didn't have it there, and I really couldn't get refreshments for a while.

Looking at the almost glowing floor, Umegaki felt that he really couldn't accept help in vain with a clear conscience, so he hurriedly stopped Miss Kyoko, took out a book from his shelf, took it out and handed it to Kyoko Mogami: "Thank you so much, Mogami-san, that ...... Please take this book, that ...... As a thank you! ”

It is a beautifully bound hardcover book that looks very new, but not particularly valuable.

Kyoko-shou, who rarely receives gifts from girls, was so happy that she subconsciously wanted to take it, but then remembered that she was the perpetrator and retracted her hand. Sensing the other party's hesitation, Maki casually chatted: "Ah, Mogami-san is working part-time, right?" I also have plans to work part-time, is there anything I can recommend? ”

There is a plan for a part-time job, but now it's just a casual remark, but I didn't expect Kyoko Mogami to respond to her quickly, "The matter of a part-time job...... That's right! Is it possible to have a cafΓ©? Umagaki-san, you're a student, right? I used to work at a cafΓ© near here, but I didn't pay much because I had fewer shifts, and then I changed to a job where I had daily shifts. But Sister Yuki is very good, and the work is relatively easy, I can write down the address, and if you need to, you can go and see it first. ”

After that, he took out a pen and paper from his backpack, swished and handed it to Maji.

Maki, who had received an unexpected harvest, took advantage of the action of taking the note, and pressed the book more firmly on the palm of the snail girl, quite a solemn sΓΉ to entrust the princess to the knight.

After sending off Kyoko Mogami, Maki Uragaki leaned against the door of the house and admired his living room again.

Wow! Wow wow wow!!

On the other side, Kyoko Mogami, who opened the door with the excitement of receiving a gift, changed her shoes, threw herself on the sofa, and raised the book she had just received with both hands, a very ordinary book - to be honest, it is actually a bit rare for girls to use books as gifts nowadays, but Kyoko still looks at it with bright eyes.

This is still ...... No, no, no, it seems like the first time I've received a gift from a girl my age!

In the past, in her hometown, many girls were reluctant to talk to her because she was not broken. In the year of working hard in Tokyo, she spent almost all her time working to make money, and even though there were many young girls working with her, it was just a general acquaintance to meet and talk.

At this moment, Kyoko Mogami recalls the appearance of Maki, and even thinks that the dimples on Maki's cheeks can be sweetened with honey.

The main color of the book's cover is black, with a looming dark cloud and a yellowish glow in the upper right.

In the lower left corner is the title and author of the book.

Kazumi Umegagaki.

The moon is dark.
