Chapter Twenty-Seven: Family, Bad Fate
"This is Coco's dog food, and its toy balls, Coco will bother you...... It won't make trouble at home, it's just more active, just take it out for a walk. ”
"It's fine." Sakakihara smiled and took the rope and bag handed by Mrs. Ogawa and carried it in his hand.
"Wow!"
The golden retriever whirled and barked at Sakakihara's feet, as if he knew that his master was leaving, and he was not very relieved, and kept whimpering.
Not to mention, this large dog is really a bit difficult to lead.
"Alright, alright."
Mrs. Xiaochuan squatted down and stroked the head of the dog that Coco looked at her: "You will stay at your brother's house for the past few days, and I will pick you up in half a month." ”
The golden retriever obediently lowered his head, did not move or bark again, but squatted quietly in place.
"Goodbye." Mrs. Ogawa gently touched Coco's head again, then got up, said goodbye to Sakakihara again, and walked back to her next room.
"Let's go."
Sakakihara Raku held the rope and said to Coco on the entrance.
I didn't expect it to understand, but the golden retriever was quite spiritual, jumped directly from the entrance to the floor, wagged his tail and waited for him, and walked into the house.
According to Mrs. Ogawa, Coco will open the door by herself.
Every day when it was about to walk, it was it who took the initiative to gather around the door, and once it saw Mrs. Ogawa coming out of the living room, it would take the initiative to jump up and pull the doorknob with its paws.
Of course, Sakakihara didn't forget about the broken middle finger.
In the hallway, he held Coco and carried the bag as he pulled out the rattan card from his trouser pocket.
The words "Promise the neighbor's request" disappeared from the previous line, and the goddess was gone, replaced by a blank space.
A blank slate?
Hint, isn't it in [Good Karma]?
Sakakihara turned over again, and only the demon with the katana in his hand remained.
Since the event that caused the fracture is not in the [Good Karma], it can only exist in the [Bad Karma].
According to the rules of foresight, it can be known that [good karma] and [bad karma] complement each other.
If there is a previous cause, there will be a later effect, and the two are the same line.
The way to change the future is hidden in this [good karma] and [bad karma].
If you're lucky, you can meet it for the first time, and if you're unlucky, you can only do both things together.
Just as Sakakihara was about to put away the divination card, there was a red glow from the side of the demon.
And soon, a compact line of words emerged:
[On the same day, before 6 p.m., Tokyo time, place a cup of salt water in the left corner of the coffee table for two hours, during which time it is not allowed to move the cup in any subjective way, including direct or indirect contribution.] 】
Salt water, put on the coffee table before six o'clock?
It's nothing.
Sakakihara quickly took out his phone and took a look.
17:05
Luckily, there's still an hour.
Sakakihara walked into the living room and handed the coco to the nine glasses of the sea and the seven moons of the sky.
Tianhai Qimingyue stretched out her hand and touched Cocoa.
I don't know if this golden retriever only recognizes women, just now he was still jumping around in Sakakihara Le's hands, and when he arrived in front of Qi Mingyue, he directly fell to the ground and wagged his tail.
Sakakihara Rakku silently thought of a word from his previous life, licking the dog.
"It's called Coco, and Mom has agreed to let her stay at home for a few days. This is the dog food he eats and his favorite toy ball, and Mrs. Ogawa will move the house where he lives later. ”
"That's right."
Tianhai Jiuliuli took the bag in his hand and looked inside.
"Wow!"
Coco in front of Qi Mingyue stood up directly and shouted twice at the bag.
"Do you want toys?" Tianhai Jiu Liuli looked at the golden retriever.
"Wow!"
Coco the Golden Retriever croaked twice more at the coffee table, her tail wagging excitedly.
Tianhai Jiu Liuli took out the green toy ball and threw it to Coco.
Coco immediately bitten, pawed with the bitten toy ball, and had a lot of fun.
Sakakihara was happy to see that the two of them had actually put away their homework.
"You're done?"
"Hmm."
"So fast?"
"It's been slow, it's been half an hour to write."
Maetoku Juku School is a high school, and the amount of homework in the afternoon is at least two to three hours.
The two of them can finish it so quickly, and the results will definitely not be too bad.
Sakakihara suddenly had a feeling that in this month's monthly test, his top five results may not be guaranteed.
"You guys are busy first, I'll go cook, and in half an hour, the bell will be almost back."
"Okay, I'm sorry for Sakakihara-kun."
Sakakihara walked briskly back to the kitchen, opened the cupboard, mixed a glass of salt water with mineral water and salt, and took out yesterday's grapes to wash them and put them on a plate.
He walked to the living room with a plate of grapes and a glass of salt water.
Place the grapes casually in front of the Nine Glass of the Heavenly Sea and the Seven Bright Moons of the Heavenly Sea, and put the salt water in the lower left corner of the coffee table.
Fortunately, their attention was on the golden retriever and they didn't pay attention to themselves.
After putting these two things down, Sakakihara prepared to walk to the kitchen.
"Wait a minute, Sakakihara-kun."
Sakakihara turned around and saw a small stack of banknotes in the hand of Tianhai Jiu Ruri.
"What's wrong?"
"This," Tianhai Jiu Ruri waved the banknote in his hand, "I found it from the bag just now, 300,000 yen." ”
"300,000 yen?"
"It should have been Mrs. Ogawa in the bag, and she left a note."
Only then did Sakakihara see clearly, in addition to those few banknotes, she also had a white note in her hand, "What is written on it?" ”
Tianhai Jiu Liuli: "It probably means that Mrs. Ogawa said that she was troublesome to us, and this money is her apology." ”
An apology of 300,000 yen?
No wonder it's [good karma].
However, what will the [bad karma] be?
"Forget it, I'll give it back to her when she comes over later."
"Brother, if you give it back to her, she will definitely not accept it, it's better to accept it, people will feel more at ease this way."
"Is that so?"
Sakakihara had no objection and walked to the kitchen, glancing at the glass of salt water in the process.
This thing, Jiu Liuli and Qi Mingyue won't drink it, right?
The rest of the time, Sakakihara found that the card did not respond, so he continued to work in the kitchen for dinner, as well as making the potato chips fried rice that Qi Mingyue had in mind.
Diced chicken, carrots, and onions were poured into the pot, and Sakakihara breathed a sigh of relief as he gently stirred the leftovers from last night with a spatula.
He feels that he has been cooking at home for more than ten years, and this is the only thing he is good at.
In the last life... He felt like he had worked hard enough.
In this life, I will maintain a normal state and live a simple daily life again.
In the future, I will talk about a simple love, go through life with that beloved, experience the trivial things of life, and stay together until I am old.
This kind of life, although ordinary, is also extremely happy.
While crushing the potato chips and pouring them into the wok, Sakakihara is thinking about his life in this life.
Mother remarried, don't worry.
So far, if there is anything worth thinking about.
Then there's only Sakakiwara Suzu, a girl.
She has watched her father run away from this home with no money and no status since she was a child, and she has no sense of security since she was a child, and she is just an ordinary girl......
Her mother has to work and is often away from home, and the only person she can rely on is her brother.
When I was a child, I cried, I liked to hug my brother and cry, I was bullied, and I also liked to come to my brother to find comfort.
Alas, Sakakihara still prefers her to laugh than when she cried when she was a child.
It's so good-looking, but the eyes are so beautiful.
He remembered what his mother had said to him.
Ah Ling, are you really in a state of insecurity now?
But it is true that the relationship between Ah Ling, Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli is still a little estranged.
This new home is not so strong, and the feelings between several people that belong to the family are not too deep, only limited to the state of just met, above friends, and under family.
Sakakihara raku stir-fried side dishes are put on a plate.
He walked to the living room, going back and forth twice, placing all four dishes and fried rice with potato chips on the table.
On the table there is potato stew, green vegetable tofu soup, mapo tofu, and vegetable salad.
Today's dinner, it's okay.
"I'm back."
Sakakihara Suzu walked in from the entrance, and with a lazy face, she saw Sakakihara Raku who was setting up the dishes and chopsticks.
Sakakihara clapped his hands: "It's so early today, dinner is ready, and you can start eating soon." ”
"Hmmm......"
Suzu Sakakihara just yawned in response, and she didn't seem to be in good spirits after recording from the anime set.
"What are you going to eat today?" She asked.
"Potato stew, mapo tofu."
"That's okay...... I feel that only the dishes made by my brother are barely appetizing, and I eat cold rice balls over there, which has no taste at all, and it is unpalatable. Suzu Sakakihara hung her shoulders, her coat and shoulder bag loose on her arms, "I'll go take a sip of water." ”
"Hmm."
Sakakihara subconsciously agreed.
Wait a minute!
Drink?!
That [bad fate], could it be?!
He suddenly stopped what he was doing, as if he realized something.
He quickly turned around, only to find that it was too late.
Suzu Sakakihara sat on the single sofa in the beveled corner of the living room, holding the cup of salt water she had picked up.
And the direction she is facing is the direction of the seven bright moons in the sky and the sea while wearing gold wire glasses to read a book.
