Tokyo, Meguro-ku.

In early summer, late at night, the winding alleys are dimly lit, and you can only see the road at your feet.

Further down the alley, it's as dark as ink.

Qiu Yuanfeng stopped, and a girl squatted there under the lamp pole, looking at him through the faint light, and looking over with a smile - the facial features are very exquisite, curved crescent eyes, willow eyebrows and cherry lips, the bridge of the nose is high, and the neat front bangs have not been sorted out for a few days and are somewhat knotted, but the flaws are difficult to hide the beautiful face of the girl.

However, the girl's face is extraordinarily pale, different from malnutrition, but showing a trace of sickness, as if she has not recovered from a long-term illness, Qiu Yuan Feng took a closer look, her body is very slender, thin, and full of bones, with the faint light, the short-sleeved bare skin in early summer seems to be able to see the blood flowing quietly in the veins, giving people the feeling of a fragile porcelain doll.

Especially a pair of eyes, extremely black and shiny, exuding a demonic strangeness, as if to suck a person's soul into it, revealing extreme danger.

Qiu Yuan Feng frowned slightly, and it would definitely be troublesome to talk, but despite what he thought, trouble took the initiative to come up, and the girl sitting under the street lamp stared at him and smiled: "Qiu Yuan, when you meet a down-and-out classmate, don't you say hello?" ”

The girl wears the school uniform of the private Qingcheng School Park, with a white stand-up collar body shirt inside, a sailor uniform with blue edges on a white background, a red scarf, and a dark blue pleated skirt that covers the knees, with black socks, and a pair of brown round-toed leather boots on her feet.

It's the same school as him, but the girls in the same grade but different classes, but he knows, or no one in the entire grade doesn't know - his full name is Rin Tsukino, and he gave a speech on behalf of the entire freshman with the first place in the entrance ceremony, and he got the first place in the first month-end test with a perfect score.

Two points higher than him.

The first place is looked up to by everyone, and the second place is not cared for, this is the reality, just like the world knows Mount Everest, but few people know about Chogori Peak, which is only about 200 meters shorter than the first peak, forming a sky difference.

Akimoto Kaede doesn't want to admit defeat, this involves principles, and the two points he lost in Japanese language and history, this is a loss of points brought about by cultural differences, and the next time he works hard, he also wants to sit on the throne of one.

Accosting a conversation meant that he couldn't ignore it, and Kaede Akimoto asked, "Tsukino-san, at this time of the night... Why are you here? ”

"Isn't it the same with Akimoto-san?"

He came here to throw away kitchen waste, but Rin Tsukino was obviously not, squatting on the ground behind a lamppole with a small suitcase, plus rumors from school these days - Rin Tsukino didn't go to school for a week, maybe he was sick, or he had an accident and met Shenyin.

The rumors are getting more and more outrageous, but the image of a sick and weak girl is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it's no wonder that the previous version thinks it's sick, even Akimoto Kaede thinks the same way, but I didn't expect it to be running away from home.

Rin Tsukino didn't want to be asked why, Akimoto Kaede glanced at it and didn't ask again, there was no place to live, and it didn't seem like he was eating, so he invited: "I opened a cooking house in front, and it's no problem to invite Tsukino-san to dinner... How's that, are you coming? ”

Akimoto Kaede didn't want to get into trouble, he just left Rin Tsukino here, plus his health was not good, if something happened, his conscience might be affected, and he should rescue a stray cat, anyway, what he meant was very clear - providing a dinner and leaving quickly after eating had nothing to do with him.

At most, he could help contact the police or take Rin Tsukino to a nearby police station.

Rin Tsukino accepted it unceremoniously, she stood up, took the small suitcase, and thanked her with a smile: "Akimoto-san, who is really a good person." ”

Kaede Akimoto led the way in front, and Rin Tsukino followed behind him with a small suitcase.

He is not Japanese, or his soul is not, Kaede Akimoto comes from an oriental country across the ocean, and by mistake, he crossed over and became a high school student, his grandfather passed away, and his guardian "aunt" worked abroad, leaving behind an old mansion and a cooking house.

He gradually got used to life here, but it was still difficult to fit in some places, which also strengthened his intention to return to China.

Use the restaurant to save money, earn living expenses and consider college expenses, and when the time is ripe, you can cross the ocean and return to your homeland.

In the second life, Qiu Yuanfeng doesn't want to live badly anymore, life should have plans and goals - study hard, be admitted to a well-known university, start a business after graduation, develop a career, and ensure the material foundation, and then marry a wife and have children, continue to struggle, and finally enjoy your old age, this is the correct trajectory of life.

A fool wastes his time.

The guardian of the body does not lack his living expenses, and the college expenses also have a part of the inheritance left by his deceased grandfather, but he is not really Qiu Yuan Feng, his real surname is "Qiu" and his name is "Feng", and there is an extra "Yuan" in the middle, and there is a change of people inside, and he can't accept it.

He even has a sense of guilt for his physical relatives.

The restaurant is located near the Meguro River, there is a commercial street in this area, the flow of people is relatively large, the location is very good, even late at night there are diners, but his business is not so good, it can be described as bleak, hanging the business number open for two days, passing by the door of the restaurant diners are attracted by the 24-hour Western European fast food restaurant opposite.

A large part of this is due to the slogan of the European restaurant opposite: "Beware of the fraud of the three no-restaurant restaurants, the European restaurant is your most intimate choice." "Chi Guoguo's malice, but Qiu Yuanfeng didn't have anything to do for a while, and finding the door was equivalent to admitting that he was here in disguise.

Without a business license, no well-known generals, and no delicious guarantee, normal diners will basically not choose him when they see the slogan.

Autumn Yuan Feng also saw it, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, there is no shortcut to success, only to do it steadfastly, at this stage is to honestly wait for diners to come to the door, and then conquer each other's stomachs with food, turning new customers into old customers.

He took Rin Tsukino to the store and pointed casually, and Akimoto Kaede said to the sick girl, "Find a place to sit, what do you want to eat?" ”

Rin Tsukino sat in front of the kitchen counter, the small suitcase was put aside, she looked at Akimoto Kaede who walked behind the kitchen counter, thought for a moment and chuckled, "As long as it is made by Akimoto-san." ”

Rin Tsukino was weak, and it seemed that he hadn't eaten well for a few days, and it was not suitable to eat food that was cold and hard and not easy to digest, so Akimoto Kaede had an idea in his heart, so he didn't ask again, but nodded and walked to the kitchen storage cabinet, took out the cooking ingredients and started his hand.

Corn soup is sweet and nourishing to the stomach, and with tea and rice, it can improve appetite while removing greasyness, cleansing the mouth, and dissolving food, which is a double effect superposition.

It's not that he cares about Rin Tsukino, but as a cook, it's a matter of course to think about the guests, it's basic, and other people Akimoto Kaede will do the same.

Akimoto Kaede was busy behind the kitchen counter, and Rin Tsukino stared at it like this - wearing a cooking suit and a chef's hat, focusing on making the food in his hands, with good facial features, moon eyebrows and starry eyes, and cherry blossom lips, the more he looked at it, the better it looked.

The cooking hasn't been cooked yet, and she has nothing to do while she waits, so Rin Tsukino smiled and accosted, "Akimoto-san, you brought me back and invited me to dinner, what do you want in return?" ”

"No need."

A dinner is nothing to him, and there are no guests for the past two days, so Akimoto Kaede is the first order of business, and the opening is free.

Rin Tsukino didn't care about being rejected, but smiled even more, and said with a smile: "I don't have any money... If Akimoto-san had seen the past... How about I be rewarded for sleeping tonight? ”

Akimoto Kaede's heart moved slightly, and the action of making food in his hand also shook - the things of men and women are originally human nature, his body is upright and puberty, coupled with Tsukino Rin's beautiful face, but the sick seedling has a shapely body, it is false to say that he is not moved.

But.

After two lifetimes of human beings, Akimoto Kaede's concentration is obviously higher than that of ordinary high school students, and after a momentary gaffe, he stabilized his mind, he glanced up at Rin Tsukino, and smiled as if he had succeeded in a conspiracy.

This guy is obviously entertaining him, and Akimoto Kaede suddenly lost his temper, how can he say that he is also a man, and he can still let Rin Tsukino hold it?

Qiu Yuan Feng also laughed angrily, he and Tsukino Rin's eyes met, did not evade it at all, and said with a slight smile: "Since Tsukino-san-chan sincerely wants to repay, then I will accept it." ”

He's a boy, who's afraid of whom?

Occupy an innate advantage, will not suffer, and the first party to retreat in the end will definitely be a girl.

Wouldn't it be better if it continued to develop?
