Time passes slowly.

It's the weekend in a blink of an eye, and Ayumi and Conan follow Dr. Asa to camp.

Qingming ignored these things.

Still in the coffee shop, still sitting at the counter, looking through the books in my hands.

With a "ding" sound, the door of the store was pushed open and the customer walked in.

"Welcome."

With a professional smile, Enomoto Azusa greeted him.

When I looked closely, I found that it was a girl I knew.

"Miss Kaobori, are you here to find the shopkeeper?"

"Hmm."

Shina Kahori nodded.

She came here because she received a call from Qingming.

"Shopkeeper ......"

Enomoto Azusa turned around and found that Qingming had walked out of the counter with a sunny smile on his face.

That's a smile bigger than anyone else's.

It's a pity that this person cut it and saw that it was black inside.

"Miss Champoli, it's really troublesome for you to run for yourself."

Polite, like a gentleman.

Azusa Enomoto pursed her lips secretly.

obviously likes to do such and such things to her, but now she pretends to be very good, if you are not familiar with his person, you will really be deceived.

Obviously, the new name Kahori was deceived.

"You're welcome."

She has always had some respect for Qingming.

Qingming smiled, didn't say anything for the time being, just made a "please come in" gesture.

He looked at Azusa Enomoto again.

"Go and prepare coffee and dessert."

As he said this, he suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to look at the new name, Kahori.

"What coffee do you like? Actually, I'm quite confident in blended coffee. ”

"Then let's mix the coffee."

"Well, that's fine."

Qingming nodded.

Instead, he asked Enomoto Azusa to take the new name Kahori to sit down, and he himself ran to the back kitchen to make coffee.

Long.

Walk out with steaming coffee and dessert.

Without asking Azusa Enomoto to help, she brought herself to the place where the new Naka Hori was and placed the coffee and dessert on the table in front of her.

"You taste it first."

"Hey."

The new name, Kahori, responded.

Qingming didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards the counter.

Soon he came over with a few more books in his hand.

Sit down in front of Shinnaka Kaho and put a few books on the table.

"This is the book I borrowed from you last time, and I have finished reading it below, and now I will return it to you."

"Actually, don't worry......"

"No, it's time to pay it back, but we don't need to argue about that."

Qingming waved his hand.

Calling the new name Kahori over is not just to return the book, but also to do other things.

Of course, it's not a big deal.

"I remember, you owe me one more condition."

"Yes."

Shina Kahori nodded.

Borrowing books wasn't a condition, it was just a gesture, so she always remembered.

Of course, even if it has been completed, if Qingming needs help with something, as long as she can do it, she will not refuse.

"Do you need my help?"

"I just want you to help pay attention, if you find any place or people who have ancient books from Huaxia, please notify me, can you?"

"Of course."

Shina Kaori nodded affirmatively.

This can be regarded as a gesture, after all, she is not asked to search in person, but just to notify Qingming when she sees it.

"That's it?"

"Well, that's it."

Qingming nodded.

So something that was originally said on the phone was okay, but it had to be done by someone in person?

Yes.

Qingming is so boring that it also makes others run around because of boring things.

In essence, he is black.

Let's not talk about that.

Look at the new name Kahori, and speak again.

"Miss Champoli, do you have anything to worry about?"

"Huh? Well...... Sort of. ”

Shina Kahori nodded.

After a moment's hesitation, he still said his problem.

"I wanted to take care of my parents, so I quit my job, but my father and mother told me to go back to work, saying that I didn't need to worry, but I was worried that something would happen to them......"

A bit incoherent.

But Qingming understands.

"So you want to find a job where you can have time to take care of your parents and keep them from worrying about you?"

"Yes."

"Didn't I say that? Your career lies in fiction, and you can write novels like your father, so that you can stay at home and take care of your parents, and you won't have to worry about them. ”

The night I moved to the manor, it was indeed said.

But in this way, the new name Kaori didn't take it seriously, so he kept hesitating.

Still hesitant.

"But ......"

"Believe me, in this regard, you are more talented than your father, absolutely no problem."

Qingming hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled.

It's still the kind of smile that looks sunny, and it's easy to get infected.

"That ......"

Shina Kahori looked at Qingming's smile.

After thinking about it, he nodded.

"Then I'll give it a try."

……

Everyone, there is something they want.

Some people can get it easily, and some people can't get it in their lifetime.

The world is so unfair.

Fate is always something that can make people sigh from time to time.

It's something that's hard to figure out.

Qingming can't figure it out, although he can read fortune telling, but in the future, there are countless possibilities after all.

What he could see was perhaps the most likely one.

Or maybe not.

At night.

Back to the estate.

Akane is the only one in the manor, and she seems to enjoy her life now.

There is no complaining, no self-pity, and the smile on his face seems to be more, perhaps because he no longer needs to do things for the organization and no longer needs to worry about his sister.

The only knot in my heart may be about my parents.

Or maybe there is also a question about Shuichi Akai?

Qingming is not clear.

"The shopkeeper."

When he saw Qingming coming back, he greeted him with a smile.

Still wearing a maid's outfit.

Her clothes are only maid outfits, and although Qingming gave her a card, she didn't buy new clothes for herself.

Maybe it's to repay the favor, or maybe it's a job to let Qingming take care of them, so they don't mind wearing such a maid outfit.

"Do you take a shower first, eat first, or ......?"

"Shall I 'eat' you first?"

Qingming interrupted her and tilted his head to look at her.

This seems to make Akane a little confused.

Eat her first......

What is the meaning?

Qingming did not explain.

I changed my shoes and walked over to the dining table.

"Let's bring it when dinner is ready."

"Yes."

Answered, and walked towards the kitchen.

It didn't take long for the food cart to come over, and it was full of prepared meals.

However, it's all neon cuisine.

Recently, I've been eating these, which has made Qingming feel a little bored.

"You should learn Chinese cuisine."

Qingming said.

That's the existence that he won't get bored with eating for the rest of his life, there are too many Chinese delicacies, and he doesn't know when he wants to eat it when he takes his turn.

Even if you don't know how to cook so much, you can only cook some home-cooked food.

He didn't want to eat neon food anyway.

"Hi, I see."

Akane has no opinion on Qingming's request.

Qingming didn't say much, it's good to eat a little first, after all, people are iron and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.

Hmm, Bigu?

Although it can be done, if it is not necessary, Qingming is too lazy to do these meaningless things.

This is not to be said.

Stared at Akane for a while, and suddenly became a little curious.

"Come here."

Beckoning to Akane.

Akane was a little confused, but she didn't say anything and walked in front of Qingming.

"Hand out, right hand."

"Hey."

Qianqianyu's hand stretched out in front of Qingming.

Qingming pinched her fingers and looked closely at her palms.

After a long time, let go and waved his hand.

Akane was still a little confused, but Qingming didn't say anything, and she didn't want to ask.

Qingming is thoughtful.

"It's not like losing the life of your parents at a young age, maybe ......"
