As a childhood sweetheart with a close relationship.

Harukawa Shirakawa knows that since Ayane's mother died unexpectedly, her father has devoted himself entirely to research out of grief.

It's not that he really doesn't care about Ayane Inoue, but he just maintains the most basic care.

And scientific research......

As we all know, once you're busy, there's almost no time to spare.

It is estimated that Ayane's father has lived in the research institute much longer than the time he has spent at home!

This is why Ayane Inoue's home shows such a deserted appearance.

And the reason why Ayane became a top student is probably also related to the fact that she can only be accompanied by books, right?

Harukawa Shirakawa thought to herself.

Inoue Ayane obviously saw what Shirakawa Haru was thinking.

Still said in a flat tone.

"Qingjun, you don't need to sympathize with me."

"Because I'm used to it."

This time, Ayane's tone was really unfluctuating, and she couldn't have been calmer.

However, this is what makes Bai Chuanqing feel some inexplicable emotions in his heart.

But from his standpoint as an outsider, he can't say much.

In the end, I can only turn this mood into a sigh.

"Let's go to the lab first."

Inoue Ayane said.

So, Harukawa Shirakawa followed her and walked to a room.

Walking into this small laboratory, Shirakawa was able to see the walls and ceiling made of a special material, various instruments, and ventilation equipment.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

Ayane Inoue's parents, as professionals, naturally knew what a small laboratory would need.

In this regard, Bai Chuanqing can only feel that he is not aware of it.

"Qingjun, take some samples from that book."

At the same time, after walking into the laboratory and putting on protective clothing, Ayane Inoue's temperament has also changed slightly.

It became a little harsh, or rather vigorous.

Harukawa Shirakawa took out "gluttony" and forcefully tore off a small piece from it with tweezers.

"Squeak—"

At this moment, "gluttony" suddenly let out a piercing and ugly cry.

It's like rubbing a nail on a chalkboard.

It makes people instinctively feel uncomfortable.

At the same time, the cover, which had been calmed down, squirmed restlessly again.

I want to get rid of Harukawa Shirakawa's control.

"Be honest with me!"

Bai Chuanqing once again controlled the black mist on his body, and even the tentacles in the mist seemed to be about to move.

And feeling the breath of the black mist, the original abnormal "gluttony" is like a mouse meeting a cat, obediently honest.

Such a change is also very scary in the eyes of Inoue Ayane.

She looked at Bai Chuanqing's actions like this, and felt a little emotion in her heart.

Has Qing's courage become so big......

Harukawa Shirakawa tore off a small piece from "gluttony".

With a hint of pink color.

Inoue Ayane carefully took it and expertly placed it on a glass slide to make a simple sample.

Using a microscope to look at this sample was the first step for Inoue Ayane.

Under the microscope, it is a picture that surprises Ayane but is not unexpected.

There is no doubt that the tissue of the sample is made up of individual animal cells.

Moreover, every cell is still surprisingly vigorous.

It's like a living beast, looking for food to devour.

The internal structure determines the external performance.

Probably, because the whole book is composed of such cells, it exhibits such an eerie "alive" characteristic.

For Ayane Inoue, observation under the microscope was just the first step.

There are many types of experiments waiting for it.

Harukawa Shirakawa was working on the side, while digesting the information from Ayane Inoue's experiment.

In the experiment without distractions, Bai Chuanqing looked down at his phone, and it was already past nine o'clock.

Fortunately, Bai Chuanqing had already told her parents in advance that she would go back later, and she would not let her family worry.

"Goo......

The soft sound in Ayane's stomach was noticeable in the empty laboratory.

Even at this time, Inoue Ayane was still expressionless, but her sudden pause in her movements.

also quietly exposed her embarrassing mood.

"Ayane, I'm a little hungry."

Bai Chuanqing didn't say it, but said so.

"Do you have any ingredients at home? I'll make something to eat. ”

“...... Well. ”

Inoue Ayane had a paralyzed face, but from her neck to her cheeks, she couldn't stop being hot and red.

You can only respond gently in a nasal voice.

Harukawa Shirakawa came to the kitchen and first searched the refrigerator and cabinets.

The ingredients in Ayane's house are quite complete.

After all, every day at noon, Bai Chuanqing's lunch box is also in charge of her.

But considering that it is quite late now, steaming rice and cooking is obviously not realistic.

Looking at the handful of udon noodles in the cabinet, Shirakawa Harukawa said to Ayane.

"Ayane, I'll give you something to eat, okay?"

"Hmm."

Inoue nodded again.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Shirakawa Harushi got busy in the kitchen.

As a proficient cook, he also used his creativity.

Soon, two bowls of udon noodles were served to the table.

To be precise, this should be udon noodles.

The eggs are spread out into egg skins and topped with simply sautéed diced vegetables and minced meat.

On a night like this, there is a rich fragrance.

It can also be regarded as a complete color, flavor, and flavor.

"Here, let's have a taste."

Harukawa said with a smile.

To be honest, this practice is not very common in Japan.

But it's better to be simple and delicious.

And that's enough.

In addition, Inoue Ayane was already hungry, and she ate it with relish.

And at this time, Bai Chuanqing suddenly realized how ambiguous this situation is now!

In the dead of night, childhood sweethearts, lonely men and widows, living in the same room.

When these words are connected together, it seems that there will be some kind of remarkable expansion?

Thinking of this, looking at Ayane's cold but good-looking face in front of me, my heart suddenly jumped.

No, we have to find something to distract from it.

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Qing silently turned on the TV.

On the screen, it is a variety show of a funny artist.

Harushi Shirakawa has never had much affection for this kind of show, especially in Japan, where there is no lower limit at all!

Change the channel.

A historical program of the Edo period.

Change the channel.

"Name a rainbow color, and if you're right, I'll let you go."

A costume TV series with some strange lines.

Change the channel.

"Ladies and gentlemen, an urgent notice is inserted below, at 7:34 today, a vicious homicide case was found in Shinjuku District, Tokyo, and the modus operandi was extremely cruel, and the deceased were hanged at home. In the course of this month, there have been four consecutive cases of the same modus operandi. Please do not go out alone late at night and do not open the door to strangers......"

So said the announcer in the news.

On the screen, there are images covered with mosaics.

But I can already see some pictures that are not good.

On such a night, the original ambiguous atmosphere is completely destroyed.

It only makes people feel a chill in their hearts.

Not even food can dispel the cold.

In the darkness outside the window, it seems that there is something dangerous, choosing people to eat.

"Ding-dong-"

The doorbell rang in the darkness.

Pierced the silence in the room.

Even Bai Chuanqing couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and his heartbeat skipped a beat.

Who will be the people outside the door?
