"Mr. Amamiya," after another round of toasting at the same table, someone turned a slightly drunk gaze to Amamiya Konma, "Do you really not drink a little?" Don't be so unkind! If it weren't for this feast, we wouldn't have had a chance to meet you. ”

"Yes, Mr. Amamiya, as a man, it's a little unreasonable to not drink at the banquet."

"I see, I don't like what we're drinking now!" Someone took out all the good wines they brought from under the table and put them on the countertop, "Mr. Amamiya, what do you want to drink?" You're welcome, it's going to be lively today! ”

"Look, Mr. Izumi, who is sitting next to you, is already about to start loosening his belt!"

The last joke drew a small burst of good-natured laughter from everyone at the table.

Izumi Yugui also understood at this time, stood up and patted his stomach and smiled, signaling that no matter what he said, he should be the one who drinks the most on the table now.

He drank a good amount of alcohol, and his years of experience made him sit down at the table, and it was clear who could and couldn't drink after a lap.

No one at this table today could get drunk except for Amamiya Kunma, who hadn't drunk until now.

In Japan, there is no such culture of drinking, and it is rare for people to sit down at such a large round table and eat together.

Usually after work, colleagues and bosses hold a "drinking party" in an izakaya, and a small square table seats four to eight people, most of which are separated by private rooms or screens.

This kind of sake culture runs through the modern Japanese workplace, and there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates at the "drinking meeting", and the boss with a straight face on weekdays will become approachable after a few glasses of wine, and the atmosphere is very good.

Regardless of colleagues, even bosses will hardly persuade everyone to drink. Between the heavy pressure of the workplace and the pressure of family, the izakaya is the most relaxing place for everyone to go after work, focusing on fun rather than recklessness, and the laughter is all about men who sit in the car after returning home from work and don't want to go upstairs.

Probably because I have been immersed in this izakaya culture for too long, no matter what the occasion, there are few people who advise alcohol, and there are few words to advise alcohol.

But it's really unreasonable to not drink a drop of alcohol.

"Mr. Amamiya naturally has his own reasons for not drinking! Let's have fun! Izumi Yuki got up again and held the wine glass: "And even if it is a substitute for tea, Mr. Amamiya's toast just now is something that I admire very much...... As Mr. Amamiya said, I'll have another drink for everyone's acquaintance! ”

"Mr. Izumi is really good at drinking!"

"I'm a little dizzy, I'll switch to beer after drinking this!"

"Haha, in this way, Mr. Matsuki, you really don't drink well, and it's easier to get drunk when you mix liquor and beer...... Let's have some tea! ”

"It's almost time for me to stop, it's okay to get drunk before the auction starts. I'll take a sip of this last cup, and you'll be happy! ”

After another round of harmony, as soon as Izumi Yuki sat down, Amamiya Kima poured warm tea into his tea bowl.

"Mr. Izumi drinks so much." He smiled and said, "Take a sip of tea, this tea is not bad, good oolong tea." ”

Izumi Yugui took a sip of tea gently, and his eyes lit up: "Mr. Amamiya is really tasteful." ”

"Why did Mr. Izumi ...... just now?"

"Mr. Amamiya came by car, right?" Izumi Yuki lowered his voice and asked with a smile.

His face was ruddy and refreshed, and he looked like he had drunk too much, but his eyes gave him a very sober feeling.

Amamiya Konma nodded, and Izumi Yuki let out a long breath and said as if with emotion: "I also have a daughter, Mr. Amamiya should have seen it just now, it's very cute, and it makes me feel that the goal for the rest of my life is very clear...... So I understand the responsibility of a father very well. For the sake of the family, it is right not to drink. ”

Therefore, he helped Amamiya Kima block the wine, although everyone can understand it just by saying that he is driving, but I have to say that it does make Amamiya Kima have a better impression of him.

After three rounds of drinking, the auction of works by some well-known painters has begun.

As a painter, the reason why he can become famous during his lifetime is his painting skills and marketing.

Today's occasion is a perfect publicity, even if your work becomes a bargaining chip for business and political cooperation, it is acceptable in the long run.

The five people sitting at the most distinguished first table had a delicate atmosphere and did not say anything. They were waiting for Master Shiquan's painting to appear at the end and win the right to develop the city in one fell swoop.

In addition, those businessmen who fancy small projects with oil and water in government procurement projects have begun to shout prices.

Including electronic equipment, table and chair procurement, vehicle replacement, and so on.

There were also people at the table where Amamiya Konma and Izumi Yuki were and began to put down their wine glasses and concentrate on raising their cards, after all, this was the primary purpose of their visit.

After another minute or twenty, the atmosphere became lively, but only the two of them were still sitting leisurely and had no intention of participating in the auction, and became outsiders.

Izumi Yuki asked, "Don't you have the painting you want?" It took a lot of effort to attend this banquet, but it couldn't really be a meal, right? ”

Amamiya Konma smiled slightly: "Isn't Mr. Izumi?" ”

"I'm ......" Izumi Yuki sighed, and instead of answering the question, he asked rhetorically, "What is Amamiya-san making money for?" Is it for ambition? ”

Amamiya was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a long time before replying: "It may have been like this before, but recently I think family is the most important thing...... Now think about putting the cart before the horse while ignoring the family in order to make money. ”

"Haha, it's because Mr. Amamiya also has a lovely daughter, right?"

"It's a bit nerve-wracking to say, and there is a crisis in the father-daughter relationship." Amamiya Konma looked helpless and smiled wryly.

It's been a little better these days, and what the father and daughter have said all year ago is not as good as the words of Amamiya Chizuru playing games and interacting with teammates in friendly ways.

Izumi Yuki smiled: "Mr. Amamiya, you can't use the same face outside and at home!" You are a big entrepreneur, although today is the first time I met you, but think about it and know what kind of state you are on weekdays, but since you like your daughter, isn't it good to put down your body and be a daughter slave? Business to business, family to family! ”

"How did Mr. Izumi know about ......?"

"I'm not as good as you in business, but when it comes to how to be a father, it seems that Mr. Amamiya is far inferior to me!"

Izumi Yuki laughed, but was overshadowed by the nervous auction around him.

After laughing, Izumi Yugui took a deep breath, his eyes were a little stunned, as if he remembered the past.

"I understand your distress because I have been in a similar situation before...... At that time, I had just gotten married and had a daughter, and my business was in trouble...... Seven or eight years ago, business was not good! Every day, I run business outside and hit a wall everywhere, and I always can't help but vent my temper to the people around me when I get home. ”

People will always express kindness to strangers, and the more unfamiliar people are, the more polite they are, but they are full of negative emotions towards the people around them.

Izumi Yuki took a sip of wine and continued: "But fortunately, my wife is very virtuous, and she has no complaints about taking care of the children at home under so much pressure...... Let me tell you a story, Mr. Amamiya! ”

"My wife is from Kansai and lives in Komachi, south of Osaka Prefecture. She likes to eat bayberry very much, and she is obsessed with eating some every day. But since she got married to me, she has reduced her from seven or eight bayberry to four a day. After giving birth, one day I saw her standing at the door of the refrigerator and took out a glass bowl full of bayberry from inside, looked at the three bayberry left in it, looked at it for a long time, and finally put it back again. ”

"During that time, I was very short of money, and after I left Ghibli, I wanted to set up my own company, but in the face of the financial crisis, the first company went out of business after eight months, and in order to prepare for the second company, I would even go to serve dishes in addition to running business."

"I've paid too much for this family, I'm too tired, I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, sometimes I really think in my heart, I don't pay proportional to my wife's efforts, I have paid so much for this family, I deserve more enjoyment, she is just at home with the children......"

"It was because I saw that she was reluctant to eat four bayberry that I realized that her contribution was no less than mine...... I sometimes work overtime until midnight and pass by the convenience store, and when I'm so hungry, I go in and buy some oden and two grilled sausages to have a good time! ”

Izumi Yuki raised his glass again and said with a smile: "This is also the reason why I am desperate to make money." Since then, I have realized that since it is for the sake of making money for the family, then making more money and earning less is another matter, at least I can't make my family feel cold, so I take time out to spend more time with my family. At least now my daughter is sticking to me! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the price of an oil painting called "The Catcher in the Rye" over there had already reached 1.5 million yen.

Izumi Yuki put down his wine glass, and suddenly picked up the small card in front of him and held it up: "1.55 million yen!" ”

"1,550,000 yen three times!"

The hammer fell over there, and the host thanked Yuki Izumi, and then started the auction of the next painting.

This "Catcher in the Rye" was sent backstage by the staff and delivered to Izumi Yugui after the banquet.

Amamiya Konma raised an eyebrow and looked at him, each guest had seen the roster of the auction paintings before, and if memory serves, the painting was related to the cartoon character that the Hokkaido government was about to launch.

For the sake of tourism and cultural impression, the Hokkaido government plans to put cartoon images of each Hokkaido city on the screen, similar to Binchotan, which has now become an image of Japan's coal industry.

"Haha, it's true that I missed it." Izumi Yugui smiled: "It's an honor to meet you, and by the way, it would be great if I could sign a small project!" ”

Amamiya also laughed when he was close to the horse, this guy is really not as straightforward as he looks, and he also has a heart behind his back. said that he was simply coming to eat, but in fact, he still fell in love with the items in this business banquet.

But he likes Izumi Yougui very much, I don't know why, I always feel that although this guy has a heart, he is not annoying. There is also a premonition that there may be more communication in the future.

Soon the auction price of the paintings rose from several million to tens of millions, and this is not the total cost of the project, but just the amount of money to be sent to the government for the project, which is a bribe to put it mildly.

Sending tens of millions of huge sums of money will hurt even these entrepreneurs, and some officials will even collect hundreds of millions of dollars after working for most of their lives.

Today's vote, it can be seen that everyone is on the liquidity is bound to get, just when the economy is recovering, seize the wind is the next pig to fly to the sky.

"The next auction is "May there be no cold in the ice and snow" created by our master Yumi Ishizumi for this charity auction, which took nearly a year to create. I don't think I need to introduce too much about Master Shiquan's reputation and level, right? The starting price is 20 million yen, and each increase must not be less than 1 million yen! ”

Mr. Nagase presided over the auction of the last oil painting on the stage, and the five commercial oligarchs who came to this oil painting today immediately put down the fast son and wine glass in their hands, and the atmosphere at the first table became tense.

On the other hand, at the second table, almost everyone took pictures of the painting they wanted and the project behind it, and the ones with less flowers were high-spirited, and those with more flowers were also acceptable. For a while, the atmosphere became lively.

"Shall we start the second round?" Someone raised a glass and proposed, his face full of red light.

This look is really missing.

"It's none of our business then, let's see the gentlemen at the first table scramble!" A blonde businessman didn't talk a lot just now, but now that the mission was over, he burst out laughing.

Izumi Yuki quietly began to sip his own wine, and his face was full of joy.

1.55 million yen is equivalent to about 70,000 yuan, and this gift may not be worth giving away to make a cartoon image for a city, but it is definitely worth it for all the representative cities of Hokkaido.

Hokkaido's tourism industry is famous all over the world, and this tourism image is well known.

"Amamiya-san, when will you be back in Tokyo? When I return to Tokyo, if I have a business need, you must sell me a face! I only need to be given a sales pitch and I'll be satisfied, and when the time comes, I'll have a dinner, and you can drink as much as you want, and if you don't want to...... Huh? Mr. Amamiya? ”

For ordinary businessmen like them, this banquet is over, and Izumi Yuki is thinking about going home.

As a result, he found that he was talking to Amamiya Kima about a conversation, but the other party's eyes kept staring at the stage.

Hearing Izumi's inquiry, Amamiya Konma retracted his gaze and looked at him, smiling slightly: "Then I'll ask Mr. Izumi to give me a business card later...... No, let's exchange business cards! In addition to business matters, I would like to have a good drink with Mr. Izumi when I have the chance. ”

"Business cards are there! Yes, yes! Izumi Yuki hurriedly took out his business card from his wallet and solemnly handed it to Amamiya Konma, who also gave him his business card.

"That...... Was Mr. Amamiya interested in that painting? Izumi Yougui was actually a little drunk at this time, "What a gap!" Naturally, Mr. Amamiya's cultivation can appreciate the connotation of oil painting, while I, a rough person with no culture, just think that the painting is very real. ”

"Actually, I don't see good or bad." Amamiya shook his head slightly.

"Then you ......"

Izumi Yougui was stunned for a moment, he could clearly feel that there was a momentum awakening on Amamiya Konma's body, as if watching the little beasts in the forest fight and the Lord of the Mountain, who had been lying on the side, slowly raised his head, and his eyes flashed with majesty.

No way?

The bidding over there has already reached 94 million yen!

"94 million yen per time!"

"94,000,000 yen ......"

"100 million."

A lightly written sentence is so harsh in a noisy banquet scene.

Izumi Yuki, who was closest to him, heard it most clearly, and Amamiya Konma was drinking tea leisurely at this time with a calm look, as if the shocked eyes of the audience were not looking at him.

And before the merchants followed the voice and looked over, Izumi Yuki witnessed how Amamiya Konma gently raised the card, how his lips squirmed, and how the Adam's apple went up and down to produce those few syllables.

A small 100 million, behind the simple words is a huge wealth, money that ordinary people can't earn in a lifetime.

The five people at the first table all came back to their senses after a short stunned moment, and after they looked at each other, their expressions became serious.

It's not that this 100 million is exaggerated for them, but this shouting price from Amamiya Konma means that he is also going to join this war...... Otherwise, no one will be stupid enough to casually shout prices to lower popularity.

Someone's gone!

It's a variable!

For businessmen, changing things can be tricky!

Mr. Nagase, who was as stunned as everyone else, came back to his senses at this time.

"100 million once!"

"Fifteen million."

"106 million."

"100,700 ......"

"120 million."

Every time the price was raised at the first table, he shouted up to 1 million and 1 million, and when he shouted to Amamiya near the horse, he added 10 million again and again.

The originally noisy venue became silent, and only the shouts of these few people came and went, and soon formed a pattern-

A few people at the first table called for a while, and the price rose in steps, and then Amamiya suddenly raised the price by one or twenty million, and everyone continued to shout.

Slowly, the eyes of the businessmen at the second table who were still chatting and laughing with Amamiya Konma just now changed when they looked at him.

Why would a figure like Amamiya sit at our table?

Since you're here for that painting, you should go to the first table, right?

And spend hundreds of millions, crazy, right?

Ten years ago, when the richest man in Hokkaido had a net worth of only 700 million US dollars, spending hundreds of millions of yen to buy a painting and the development rights behind it was tantamount to putting all the heads on the table and making a big gamble!

This is the mental activity of almost every one of them.

However, only Izumi Yuki, as usual, quietly drank wine and drank by himself beside Amamiya Konma.

Every time Amamiya approached the horse and asked for a price, he would take a sip of himself, and his eyes were slightly drunk, revealing a little seriousness, as if he was thinking about something.

"Three hundred and seventy million."

Amamiya Konma's bid again, causing someone at the first table to slap the table and question.

"Amamiya-san, you should know the rules of the auction. If I don't come up with this money, I don't have to say the consequences in front of so many people, right? ”

Amamiya Konma smiled slightly and raised his teacup: "Mr. Suzuki, you only need to say a number to shout." ”

"You!"

He just slapped the table and stood up, and he had become the focus of the audience, and when Amamiya Konma said this, he could only shout "Three hundred and seventy-one million." ”

In fact, he was very scared, for fear that everyone would stop and let him clean up this mess.

370 million yen is already more than his budget, and his entire net worth is only 4.5 billion yen......

Originally, everyone thought that they would shout at most 200 million, and these oligarchs, who were both enemies and friends on weekdays, began to discuss with each other, so as not to fight to the death.

I didn't expect to be disrupted by outsiders from Tokyo, and there is a situation where I either kill you or you kill me today......

Are Tokyoites so rich?

The wealthy merchants of Hokkaido are a little skeptical.

The scene became quiet for a while, and Suzuki panicked.

Won't they really stop, this group of people will unite to pit themselves by more than 100 million, right?

At the last moment of the bidding, Amamiya Jinma slowly shouted another million.

Suzuki reacted at this time, this bastard named Amamiya is planning to delay a little longer to observe his reaction, I am afraid that his failed expression management just now has exposed the confidence to bid again.

"Alas......" an old man next to him stood up and sighed, "Four hundred million! ”

No matter how high the price is shouted at this meeting, the people present are used to it...... Because everyone knows that some people are starting to lose their breath.

The old man raised his glass and looked at Amamiya Konma, "Distinguished guest from Tokyo, I can see that you are prepared." Then let's not be so slow, 400 million is my bottom line, if you add more, I will stop at any time. In fact, we all know that about 200 million is the range that everyone can accept, and now it has nearly doubled, and I think it's time to understand. ”

With that, he drank all the wine in his hand.

Seeing this, Amamiya Konma also got up, but he was holding a teacup in his hand.

"Today, I personally drove my family to the banquet, and the wine really can't be drunk, so I will replace the bar with tea!"

He also raised his head to drink the tea in the cup, and then said confidently with his eyes: "I will give 410 million." As you said, it's time to find out...... In addition, I will tell you that I can't hold it anymore and may stop at any time, so who will end up with this painting, which far exceeds your psychological expectations...... You are a senior, you have more knowledge than me, and you already know what to expect. ”

The old man's face was cloudy for a while, and he added another million.

At this time, the momentum of the two of them was judged.

Amamiya Konma is leading the nose of the audience with a price increase of 10 million each time...... Or that there is no third person who dares to stand up and compete now, and it is a unilateral crushing between Amamiya Konma, a chaebol from Tokyo, and a wealthy local businessman in Hokkaido.

"Four hundred ninety-one million!" The old man's final shout almost drained all his strength.

He felt his chest thump, this feeling of gasping for breath and his heart beating faster was really a long time ago, as if he had returned to the scene when he confessed to his first love.

This is his final bottom line.

"Four hundred and ninety-two million." Amamiya Konma shouted out the price without hurry.

The old man took a long breath, sat down with the help of others, relieved himself several times, and finally sighed heavily.

"Mr. Amamiya is young and can calm down, but he is so impetuous and can't see the situation clearly, and he has raised so many times in vain to let Mr. Amamiya spend money unjustly...... I'll take another drink, hoping that today's unpleasantness will be like today's wine, and tomorrow I'll forget about it! In the future, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate more with Mr. Amamiya here in Hokkaido, and remember to come back to me. ”

The old man drank all the sake in his cup, and was helped out of his seat by his subordinates and retainers to rest.

Amamiya Konma bowed lightly and watched the old man leave, watching the eyes of the audience fall on him, afraid that he would not be able to sit down without saying something.

He smiled lightly and said: "I don't think that the contemptible Amamiya Konma has spent unjust money, whether it is the master's painting or the purpose of donating for charity today, it is worth the price." I propose a toast to all of you who are charitable. ”

It's still a tea bowl, but no one will raise any objections at this time.

In this society, if you have money and power, you have the right to speak, and Amamiya Konma has won everyone's respect with his demeanor and courage.

The flashing lights of the surrounding reporters shot at Amamiya Kinma, fearing that tomorrow the philanthropic feat of this outstanding young entrepreneur would spread throughout Hokkaido and then back to Tokyo.

After the auction, Yumi Ishizumi led her students to a toast and thanked Mr. Amamiya for his contribution to Hokkaido's charity.

The money to buy the paintings will indeed be donated, which is a great achievement for politicians.

The other amount, which is almost equal to the amount of money, will be sent to the private accounts of these politicians through various channels.

The eyes of the businessmen at the same table have changed when they look at Amamiya Konma, and their attitudes have also changed, they are not as easy-going as before, and they have become respectful.

There were even a few who said bluntly that they were drunk just now, and they would bend down and hand over the business card, and the respect and words between the words were not drunk at all.

However, only Izumi Yuki laughed, and it seemed that he had really drunk more than just now.

The auction that lasted more than ten minutes just now, but he was a small sip of Amamiya when he asked for a price!

"I really didn't see the wrong person!" Izumi Yuki was very happy, as if he was standing in front of everyone and overpowering many merchants in Hokkaido: "Mr. Amamiya has a magnificent head, and his courage is far beyond ordinary people!" ”

He and Amamiya are both outsiders from Tokyo, and there is always a sense of alienation from the local chaebol or the regional head of a large company, but these two fellow villagers have a better perception of each other.

At this time, Izumi Yougui drank a little too much, and his true feelings were revealed, but Amamiya Konma felt that he was much more sincere than these "drinking friends" who were pretending to be drunk just now and are now respectful.

"Mr. Izumi, drink less, and we'll meet again when we go back to Tokyo."

Amamiya Konma smiled and went to take the wine glass in his hand, but he didn't expect that between the two of them pushing slightly, Izumi Yugui's face changed.

He pushed away the rain palace near the horse, staggered and grabbed the trash can under the table and threw it up, showing everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all smiled and laughed.

"Mr. Izumi, it's really not easy today!"

"yes, prepare something to sober up for Mr. Izumi." Someone instructed the waiter, "Then take Mr. Izumi to the toilet to wash his face." ”

"No need, I'll just take him."

Amamiya Konma declined the kindness of those people, called two waiters to follow him, and helped Izumi Yuki to the bathroom.

The waiter was at the door of the toilet at any time, and Amamiya was close to the horse and helped Izumi Yuki to vomit by the toilet.

During this period, many guests came in to go to the toilet, and when they saw the two of them, they just said a few words to Amamiya and went to the empty compartment and closed the door.

Tonight, it can be said that Amamiya Konma has become the focus of the audience in one fell swoop, and it is difficult for these businessmen who participated in the banquet to know each other.

Standing outside the cubicle, Amamiya took out a cigarette from his jacket pocket and asked, "Don't you mind if I light one, Mr. Izumi?" You've drunk too much today. ”

"Vomit!"

Izumi Yougui hugged the toilet and vomited vigorously, and after spitting up, he swayed out and lay on the washstand, only to feel that the world was spinning, and the washbasin seemed to be a boat on the sea.

"Mainly...... Rejoice! Mr. Amamiya really gave us ...... The people of Tokyo have a long face! Hokkaido is good, but ...... We're outsiders after all! ”

Even if he drank too much, he still remembered not to casually say that other people's were bad, but Amamiya Konma could also hear it, and it was estimated that something unfriendly had happened here in the past few days, resulting in Izumi Yuki actually having a bad impression of people here in Hokkaido.

But it was Izumi Yougui's appearance that he could still hold on to his mouth after drinking too much, which made him feel that this person was even more sociable.

He smiled, smoked a cigarette, and waited for Izumi to take a break.

After smoking, he walked up behind Izumi Yuki and patted his back while turning on the faucet to help him wash his face.

Izumi Yougui, who drank too much, probably came up with the strength of the wine, holding the Amamiya near horse with both hands, leaning his head on it, and the smell of wine was smoking.

"It seems that Mr. Izumi is really drunk." Amamiya smiled helplessly, called the waiter, and sent him out again.

By the time I went out, the banquet was almost over, and some of the merchants had already planned to go home with the benefits.

Mr. Nagase stood at the door of the banquet hall to bid farewell to the guests who had left first, and beside their greetings, Mrs. Izumi and the young Mio Izumi waited anxiously.

Seeing that her husband was being helped over, Mrs. Izumi was full of worries, and hurriedly stepped forward to pick up her husband.

"Why do you drink so much?" She frowned and whispered to Izumi Yugui, and then bowed to Amamiya and thanked him: "You are Mr. Amamiya, right?" I was far away from the venue just now, but I could see you sitting with my husband and him...... I'm sorry for your trouble! He's really, drinking so much, so big that he doesn't count! ”

The young Mio Izumi looked at his parents, then at Amamiya Konma, and also bent down and said loudly, "Uncle Crab!" ”

Amamiya Konma smiled and squatted down and touched her head, and said softly, "You have a good father, remember to listen to your parents." ”

After Mrs. Izumi thanked her for her kindness, she took the auction painting and her daughter to help Izumi Yugui and leave.

Amamiya looked at the back of their family and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

If I could have met Mr. Izumi earlier and known these truths about starting a family earlier, maybe my daughter would be so bouncing and cheerful today, right?

"Mr. Amamiya really opened my eyes today...... When you come back to Hokkaido, please contact me if you need anything. ”

Mr. Nagase looked left and right, and found that many reporters had not left, so he lowered his voice and said, "Let's go back and contact, Mr. Amamiya will have a good time today, and please Haihan if you don't entertain well." ”

Immediately afterwards, he took the pair of "May there be no cold in the ice and snow" from the waiter, and solemnly handed it to Amamiya Konma.

Amamiya Konma returns to the venue with the painting to find his wife, and finds Chizuru asleep in her arms.

"Shall we go home?" Amamiya looked at his wife with a smile: "Go back to the hotel and rest for the night, and tomorrow we will go back to Tokyo." ”

"It cost a lot of money." Mrs. Amamiya looked at the painting in her husband's hand, her eyes were a little distressed, but she didn't complain too much, just said very calmly: "It's going to be a long time coming. ”

"No matter how hard it is, compared to those small businessmen, it can be regarded as rich." Amamiya Konma said softly, gently stroking his wife's cheek: "When the project is signed, Hokkaido will make money here, and it will be better than now." At that time, we will not be so tired, and we will serve our daughters to grow up with peace of mind, okay? ”

Mrs. Amamiya's nose was sour, and her husband finally understood.

"Hmm!"

She nodded vigorously, and then hugged the sleeping Chizuru to her husband: "I went to the bathroom, I didn't dare to go for fear that she would run around." ”

"I'll be waiting for you at the door."

Amamiya Konma carried his daughter out of the gate and came outside, maybe it was a little cold when the wind blew, or maybe it was stimulated by the smell of alcohol on Amamiya Konma, in short, Xiao Chizuru woke up with a frown.

"Are you awake?" Amamiya Konma touched her head: "The banquet is over, and when my mother comes back from going to the toilet, we will go back." ”

Xiao Qianhe sniffed her nose, and a bad smell of alcohol rushed to her brain, and her expression became more and more uncomfortable and strange, and even a little angry.

Why do you drink alcohol?

Amamiya Chizuru, who witnessed the normal banquet process not far away, sighed and whispered, "If I ask at this time, maybe everything will be different...... But I was very tough when I was a kid, alas! ”

Mio Izumi gently patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "At least now you already know that Uncle Amamiya has remorse from this moment, and that's enough." And you now know that Uncle Amamiya didn't drink that night, and the smell of alcohol on his body is ......"

After a pause, Mio Izumi pursed her lips and was embarrassed: "It's my father, I'm really sorry." ”

"It's fine." Amamiya Chizuru shook his head: "I fell asleep that night, and when I smelled the wine, I firmly believed that my father didn't ask more after drinking, it was my problem, and it had nothing to do with your family." ”

"Can we wake up, then?" Mio Izumi looked up at the night sky, and the snow in the dark night sky still didn't stop, and it was getting bigger and bigger.

"I'm worried about the reality of the situation," she said, "how long have we been asleep?" ”

Amamiya Chizuru shook his head: "Not yet, I still have something to confirm." ”

"But if we continue like this, we won't ......"

"Yes!" She looked at Mio Izumi's worried look and said firmly, "If you keep watching, you will be at the scene of that car accident." But even if I had to go through that painful memory again, I had things I wanted to know. ”

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Izumi Mio had no choice but to sigh lightly: "Okay then, listen to you." ”

"He came by car, and it was only their family, so the head of the family ......"

"You'd better not give me any extraneous branches, I shouldn't have brought you tonight!"

The sound of a quarrel sounded in the parking lot, attracting Mio Izumi and Chizuru Amamiya to follow the prestige, but because there were too many people, there was no sound after the two arguments.

"Let's follow." Mio Izumi looked at the car that had started: "Your father is already driving away." ”

Amamiya Chizuru nodded, and looked back at the noisy crowd in the parking lot meaningfully, his eyes a little puzzled and solemn.

-----------------

"It's getting heavier and heavier." Amamiya Konma, who was driving, looked out the window, and then turned to his wife and asked, "Put a dress on your daughter?" ”

Because her daughter was a little tired, Mrs. Amamiya did not sit in the co-pilot, but went to the back seat to hold her daughter in her arms, so that she could lie down more comfortably.

"It's rare that you know that you care about your daughter." Mrs. Amamiya joked with a smile, and then said, "Don't worry, it's tightly wrapped, as long as you don't open the window." ”

Amamiya drove near the horse and said with a smile: "I'm not our daughter, how could I do such a thing...... But I understand, I will explain it to her first in the future, and I won't blame her when I come up. ”

After a long time, Mrs. Amamiya sighed: "Amamiya is close to the horse, and I feel like I'm dreaming these days. ”

"What's wrong?"

"I didn't expect you to finally get the hang of it, do you know how long I've been looking forward to it?" In the end, Mrs. Amamiya choked up a little: "It's not too late, Amamiya is close to the horse, as long as you turn back, it's not too late." ”

Amamiya stopped talking, he looked at the traffic outside the window, and was full of emotion.

Suddenly, a car came up and went hand in hand with Amamiya's car.

"Hey!"

The other car pulled down the window, and it turned out to be the drunk Izumi Yuki, who was lying on the window and eating several mouthfuls of snow in the wind, and shouted at Amamiya's car: "Mr. Amamiya! ”

Amamiya Konma turned around and motioned to his wife to wrap his daughter tighter, and then rolled down the window on his side a little: "Mr. Izumi!" Are you feeling better? ”

"It's so much better!" Izumi Yuki let out a long breath, "Mr. Amamiya, can you go along?" I'm going to Sapporo too, would you like to come and sit with me? ”

Amamiya Konma shook his head: "It's too late, I won't go...... It's okay to drive to Sapporo together. ”

"That's great!"

Izumi Yuki motioned to his wife to keep a good distance and speed, but Mio Izumi, who was behind him, suddenly became a little impatient.

"Baba, I'm a little uncomfortable!"

She gasped and her face began to turn rosy.

Izumi Yugui hurriedly touched her forehead and found that it was even hotter than the redness on the back of his hand after drinking.

"Got a cold?" His face was slightly stunned, and then he shouted out the window: "I'm sorry Mr. Amamiya!" My daughter was a little uncomfortable and I might have to get off at the front service area! ”

"It's okay, let's get back to Tokyo and get in touch!" Amamiya smiled and rolled up the window.

Izumi Yuki motioned for his wife to join the car, slowed down, distanced himself and waited for the next service area to go to the clinic to have a look.

Most of the service areas have pharmacies or clinics in case of accidents while driving on national highways.

Seeing that the service area was in front of them, Mrs. Izumi slowed down and merged into the ramp, just as a tanker truck loaded with fuel honked its horn and rushed past the passing lane on their right.

"It's still going so fast on this snowy day, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated!" Mrs. Izumi snorted, then turned to her husband and complained, "Don't drink so much in the future!" How scary it is for me to encounter such a car in my car! ”

Izumi Yugui also leaned on the window and looked out, the fuel tanker truck was obviously speeding.

Do you want to overtake and hurry up?

"Let's go to the service area to find a doctor and take a look at my daughter first!" Knowing that arguing with his wife was useless, he shifted the conversation to his daughter.

They are slow

Drive slowly into the service area and park your car at the parking lot in the service area.

Just as Izumi Yugui got out of the car and hugged his daughter to the door of the service area to ask where the clinic was, a dazzling white light flashed behind him.

He was stunned for a moment, and as soon as he turned around, a huge roar exploded in his ears!

Rumble!

The roar blinded the ears for a moment, and the glass of almost all the vehicles in the parking area was shattered!

The rush of air almost blew the wind and snow into a vacuum!

It took a second or two for the snowflakes to fall.

Mio Izumi cried instantly, and people from the service area kept coming out of the house...... The sound shattered along with the glass of the house, and people ran out of the house in panic, thinking it was an earthquake.

The crowd screamed and screamed as they looked over there, and Mrs. Izumi leaned over to look at her husband with a look of horror on her face.

Izumi Yougui was also stunned, he looked at the sky-high fire, subconsciously comforted his crying daughter, and then suddenly realized: "It's that tanker!" ”

Mrs. Hequan was afraid for a while, and her voice was trembling: "Then if we didn't come to the service area just now because our daughter had a cold, we would ...... too."

"Don't say frustrating words! At least someone else is not our ......"

"Not good!" Izumi Yuki's face changed: "Mr. Amamiya is over there!" ”

"You're not going to go over again, are you?" Lady Amamiya looked shocked: "Don't be stupid! ”

Izumi Yougui looked at the increasing number of people in the square of the service area, and gritted his teeth: "Five minutes, I'll wait here for five minutes, if there is no follow-up explosion, I'll organize the people around me to go over and take a look." ”

"You're crazy!" Mrs. Hequan beat his arm: "You don't want to die, you think about me and my daughter!" ”

"You don't understand."

Izumi Yugui's strength had been woken up a little by the explosion of the tanker, and he was panting, his face a little solemn and desperate.

Like a gambler sitting at a table ready to gamble, with his last chips piled up on the table.

In front of him hangs a rope with a chance written on it that will never come back in this life!
