Chapter 26: The Sachet

Seeing Mito Hayato leave the alleyway, Lost Island returned home with his mobile phone.

"I'm back."

Ignoring her mother hanging from the hallway, she made her way to the kitchen after a quick change of shoes.

"Xiaolian, there was a bit of noise outside just now, is that group of gangsters who are asking for debts here again?"

My grandmother was leaning against the wall, her eyes cloudy and almost completely lost her vision.

"Nope." Lost Island put the dishes in the pool and washed, "It's just ...... A few people got drunk in the afternoon and quarreled in the alley, and if it were that group of people, they would have smashed the door. ”

She was telling white lies, not wanting her grandmother to continue to worry.

", won't anyone take care of them?" Grandma muttered, "It's all about this house, it's all, it's all." ”

Lost Island Ai washes vegetables, knowing that her grandmother has to remember the past again.

What you can do at this time is not to speak, but to listen quietly.

It doesn't make sense to reason with the elderly, and the lost island love especially knows that his mouth is stupid, and he often messes up a good thing.

"Since forty or fifty years ago, people have been trying to take this house in various ways, real estate developers, lenders, and your damn dad and damn mom, all thinking about this land."

"Think your mother owes dark money and can take away this house?" Grandma shook her head, "Don't say that your mother has been dead for so many years, even if she is alive, I will not sell the house to pay off her debts." ”

"Xiaolian, this house is yours, no one can take it! When your grandmother dies, the house will be your reliance, and it's up to you to live or sell it. ”

It's just that when Ai Lost Island pulled the vegetables out of the basket, the pupils of her eyes suddenly shrank.

Money.

Yukichi Fukuzawa.

Three Yukichi Fukuzawa and a pile of banknotes and change appear in the basket.

It's about 50,000 yuan.

She remembered clearly that Mito 'extorted' more than 50,000 yuan from the three members of the Yakuza group, and the money would never appear in the basket for no reason, and it was Mito-san who took advantage of his inattention to stuff it in.

"Mito-san......"

"Mito? What Mito? Is it your classmate? "Grandma's ears are surprisingly sensitive in this kind of thing," boyfriend? Do you have a boyfriend? ”

"No, no."

"Don't trust men."

After coping with my grandmother and washing the vegetables, I carefully put the ingredients that I couldn't use tonight in the refrigerator.

Let's continue to eat bean sprouts tonight.

Grandma seemed to say that she was tired and went back to the living room to continue sulking.

After dinner, after her grandmother went to sleep, she checked whether the doors and windows were closed.

【Mito Hayato】

Gripping the phone tightly and looking at the contact who noted the name, the heart of the lost island love went up and down.

She wanted to ask what the 50,000 yen was about, but she was afraid to speak, it would be nice if everyone in the world was dumb, and she was afraid to deal with someone other than her grandmother.

"The money must be returned to him."

"So why did he give me money?"

"It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense."

Knocked and knocked on the keyboard of the mobile phone, and the lost island still put down the phone in a dejected manner.

The money must be returned to Mito-san.,It's going to be in trouble if you provoke a member of the Yakuza for someone like yourself.,If Mito-san is remembered by the Yakuza member and something happens.,Lost Island Love feels that he has committed suicide and apologizes, and there is no other way to express his apologies.。

"Whoa!"

She walked past her hanging mother with her eyes in a daze, and when she went to the bathroom, she splashed water on her face.

Taking off his glasses, Lost Island looked in the mirror and was stunned.

In the mirror, she looks like a female ghost, with water stains dripping down her face and thick bangs sticking to her forehead.

Compared to the fact that his face looks like a female ghost, the world without glasses has become more bizarre, and the familiar bathroom has become strange and terrifying.

The floor of the old tiles rose and fell between breaths, and the light bulb above her head seemed to have something about to break through, and the mother hanging in the mirror began to shake slightly.

"However, it's good ...... feeling," Lost Island put on her glasses and everything was strange and calm. ”

After the washing was completed, the lost island still did not fall asleep, she held the mobile phone and typed a lot of words, but then deleted it, and hesitated for more than ten minutes.

If you directly refuse Mito-san's kindness, will it make him angry?

But there is no reason for me to accept this money......

"If you open your mouth like this, Mito-san will definitely not accept it, if you push it around...... It's scary. ”

As soon as she thinks of having to push and push conversations with others, she feels very scary, she is too bad at dealing with this kind of scene.

"Sure enough, I still have to hand it over to Mito-san, but I don't know when school will start."

"Deliver it directly to the mailbox of the Mito classmate, and that's it."

[Mito-san, what is your home address?] 】

Lost Island Koi blushed and sent this message, her heart pounding.

Isn't this a good thing, how can a girl ask where the boy's family lives as soon as she comes up.

No, no.

Let's withdraw it, or withdraw it before Mito-san sees it.

[Read]

The word read is marked under the message that has been activated, and the finger that Lost Island Love wants to withdraw stops in the air.

It's over, and it's seen by Mito-san.

But after reading it, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and Mito-san didn't send a message for a long time.

"I've sent something, it's too suspicious to ask for my home address, will Mito-san also think I'm a weirdo, he must think I'm a weirdo, I shouldn't say anything strange about a tiger today."

【Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture......】

Seeing the address sent by Mito Hayato, Ai Shijima's eyes lit up: [Thank you, Mito-san, for your help today, I want to come to thank you on a certain day, is it okay?] 】

[Thank you for it, it's just a matter of course, no one will sit idly by in that situation.] 】

Since I came to the door, I didn't just want to return the money, but I definitely had to send something as a thank you to Mito-san for his help.

What to send?

Lost Island Love already has a plan in his heart.

Sachet.

Let's give Mito-san a sachet made by himself to ward off evil spirits and bless peace.

Find out the fabric and raw materials to make the sachet, and start sewing with a sharp hand.

The fabric is cut, sewn, the sachets are filled with cotton, and finally the spices.

Spices.

She picked up the kitchen knife she found from the kitchen and aimed it at the knuckle of her little thumb.

…………

The sachet was simply sewn up, and the lost island was relieved.

She held her phone in one hand, and although it was hard, she still smiled.

Mito-san sent a good night.

There are no emoji packets, a simple good night.

[Good night. 】

After confirming that he didn't even miss punctuation, Lost Island sent the message over.

She lay on the bed with her eyes closed and tossed and turned, not falling asleep for a long time.

Insomnia.

The eyelids are tired, but the brain is still active.

Holding her phone from the bedside, Lost Island stared at Mito's contact account, her finger swiping across the screen.

Pin this contact to the top

"That's it."
