The building looks quite imposing, no, it's imposing in itself, and it exudes a sense of calm and oppression - a joke, of course.

In front of him was just a somewhat luxurious hotel building, and the driver in a black suit and sunglasses got out of front and opened the door for Sayou.

"Mr. Sayou, please go this way, the master is waiting for you on the top of the building."

In the face of the fierce bodyguard who used honorifics on himself, Sayu did not slack off, but immediately followed his footsteps.

Wait for me at the top of the building...... Generally speaking, the rooftops are places where battles and tragedies and romantic scenes take place, and Sasuke hopes that he will not encounter any of them.

I entered the elevator with the bodyguard, and the corridor I passed through on the way looked quite clean and tidy, and the huge glass lamp set off its luxury.

There wasn't much space in the elevator, and Sayou stood in the right corner staring at the back of the bodyguard, which always felt a little familiar.

Before Sayou could speak, the bodyguard took off his sunglasses, and his face changed from a paralyzed expression to a smile.

"Should I say it's been a long time? Sayuk-sensei, remember me? ”

"Let me think about it, where do I remember meeting you...... You are ......"

"Don't worry about Sayou-sensei, I'm the first to play...... No, I was the last reader who went to Mr. Sayu's book signing not long ago. ”

I remember, it's the young man who said he was in a gangster society.

But judging from the current situation, it is not so much a gangster society, but an organization.

"I heard that Mr. Zuoyou is going to see the master, before that, let me give Mr. Zuoyou a piece of advice, remember everything the master said."

"Why do you say that?"

"The master himself is a somewhat extreme person, and he is very serious when talking to people, so he thinks that others should be as serious as himself, and if he is lazy, he will ...... directly"

"Straight ......?"

"Throw it off the roof or something."

It's scary!

"But don't worry. Most of the people who have been thrown down so far have been saved.,After all, there are special people below who are responsible for catching the guy who was thrown down from the top of the twenty-story building by the master.,It's just that if you're unlucky, it's estimated that you'll have a close contact with the ground directly.。 ”

Isn't that something that can be said so easily, isn't this a daily story!?

"It's here, please have a good trip, Mr. Sayou."

"Sounds subtle."

"I'm looking forward to Mr. Sayou's new work in the future, so I'll leave here."

The other party pressed the close button after putting on his sunglasses, and Sayu wanted to ask the other party's name, but it happened too quickly to have that kind of free time.

On the other hand, Sayu also has to face a middle-aged man who will throw people off the roof of the building alone.

Habitually taking a deep breath, Sayu stepped forward. This short corridor is occupied by several cuboid-shaped aquariums.

A little further on, an empty hall is where a man in a kimono with a sake glass admires the fish in the aquarium.

Hearing footsteps and sensing someone coming, he turned to look at Sasuke.

"Are you the writer boy mentioned by Qiqi who has a wide range of knowledge, is good at talking, has a neutral appearance, loves arcade games, and is a rookie genius who prefers to be all-rounded?"

What the hell are you talking about......

Sayu thought that he would be thrown away after asking this question, so he immediately responded modestly.

"It's not that great, but I just like to learn all kinds of miscellaneous knowledge."

"Miscellaneous? For people, the wider the knowledge, the better, and even worthless knowledge can make people a little more fulfilling. ”

The other party walked over, and Sayou saw clearly what kind of person this middle-aged man was.

The figure is also tall. The gaze is deep, and there is no expression on his face that can be called an expression.

However, it can be seen from his every move that he is very calm in his work, and there is almost no extra time and energy to waste.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I'm a ghost of the past, and I have some ominous names, right? In Japan, onime means devil's eye. ”

But it means something else, doesn't it? For example, it can cure wind and heat, and the ghost grass with bare eyes and spinning. ”

"That's right. So boy, the number 13 is considered ominous—the thirteenth disciple who betrayed Jesus, the thirteenth god Loki who upset the balance, and you have a word to make him not hated? ”

"No...... No. Fundamentally, I don't hate this number, it's just a number that Westerners are afraid of. ”

"Because it has nothing to do with me."

Onime took a sip of the wine in his hand.

"Sometimes it's either full of anxiety or vague hopes, but both worry and hope lead to the same conclusion."

Kindness?

Sayu didn't understand why he said this suddenly, and how he reacted next?

[Master, this is a famous quote from Kafka's "Metamorphosis", don't you even know this? The next sentence is ......]

Prompted by the system, Sayo paused.

"That is, he has to keep his profile low for the time being, show patience and tolerance, and help his family endure the inconvenience he has caused everyone in the current situation."

It's as if you have to endure harm for the sake of your family.

This kind of situation is something that Sayou has seen, after all, many people will think about sacrificing something for the sake of their families.

Whether it is a friend or a friend, family members often have a much higher status in the hearts of ordinary people.

Sayu felt that Kuto was not so much suffering harm for the sake of his family, but rather enjoying the situation, because Kugo Kime did not show any expression of pain, or rather expressionlessness.

"You know that, too? My family thinks that my approach is more inclined to the wrong aspect, so it's hard to understand. Of course, I'm not the one who will change immediately in order to make my family understand, that would be the most stupid thing to do, and as the head of the family, I can't show weakness. ”

"That's Mr. Onime's troubles?"

"It's not a bother...... After all, what are you here for? ”

"To attend your gala."

"Oh?"

Hearing Sayu's direct answer, Kime simply smiled.

"You're not that annoying, so your request is acceptable, but I have one request too."

"Please."

"I haven't thought of it yet, after all, I don't think you have that much ability to do things for me."

To put it bluntly, it means owing favors to people and letting you pay it back in the future, this is what adults do.

Sayou didn't refuse, after all, in order to participate in the party, he had to make some sacrifices like an equivalent exchange. (To be continued......)
