District 23.

CCG Branch Hospital.

"What a laziness, young man,"

"You've been in a coma for a day."

As soon as she opened her eyes, Ayaro heard Aite's voice.

Lying on top of a large bed, looking at the white decorations all around, there is no doubt that it is in the hospital.

Reminiscent of what happened before the coma, it should be in the CCG.

"It's Miss Mei who is obviously injured,"

"You're fine, but you've been in a coma for a day."

Aite Jiao smiled and continued.

When she heard that her editor had been attacked by a meow, she came to visit her as soon as possible.

It's also good that Ayaro wasn't injured, otherwise she would really have a headache.

Finally had a satisfying editor, and she didn't want to hire again.

"I'm sorry."

Ayaraku scratched her head.

"By the way, how is Mei-senpai doing now?"

"And ......"

"Miss Aite, won't there be any problems with you coming to a place like this?"

Ayaraku said slowly.

"That woman, it seems that she is still in the intensive care unit, ordinary people have no right to visit,"

"As for me?"

"What could I have asked for?"

Aite spread his hands with an expression that I didn't understand what you were saying.

Ayaraku smiled and stopped asking.

The CCG is equipped with a "gate" to check the concentration of Rc cells.

Once the limit is exceeded, the identity of the meow will be recognized, and the concentration of Rc cells in the body of the mew is far higher than that of ordinary people, which is why they will have Hebao and Hezi.

But......

Aite is not recognizable by that kind of door.

Her bloodline is extremely special.

"Mr. Takatsuki."

Ayaro said suddenly.

"How?"

Aite glanced at the young man on the hospital bed.

Obviously, the other party is older than him, but she is used to putting herself in a higher position.

No matter who she was dealing with, her tone of voice was always so flat, as if she was talking to someone from the throne.

"I'll see you when I wake up,"

"It's the best birthday present I've ever received."

Ayaluo chuckled.

The green algae head is messy like a bird's nest, and it is so cold that people dare not approach.

He loved those eyes.

"Thank you."

Aite's answer was bland.

Ayaluo is not surprised, after all, she has always been with him like this.

"I want to go to the 20th arrondissement in the evening to meet a ......"

"Can Aya-kun wait for me next to me?"

Aite turned his head to look out the window at the world.

The blue sky and white clouds are peaceful, the city is always so lively, but her eyes are a little lonely.

"My book, I've always wanted to give it to him......"

"It's my own business...... It's really troublesome Aya-kun. ”

Aite said intermittently.

"You're going to come with me, aren't you?"

"Hmm."

"Happy birthday."

"Hmm."

......

Evening.

Ayaluo finished recording her confession at CCG and completed the discharge procedures easily.

After all, it was an ordinary person who was implicated, and he didn't encounter any trouble.

"Mr. Takatsuki,"

"You want to give your book to someone?"

Ayaro and Aite walked out of the bookstore, holding a copy of their debut book, To Kafka.

It is indeed a good choice for the author to give his own book as a gift.

Moreover, he had already guessed the identity of the man.

Besides that one, who else can be in District 20 who can meet Aite in person?

"Just wait here,"

"I'll be right back."

Aite pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a nervous look appeared on his face.

The person I was going to meet this time was very unusual.

"Antique café."

Across the street, Ayaraku looked at the café's sign from a distance.

Aite shook around twice in front of the store, and finally walked in with his book in his hand.

And in fact—

Ayaro didn't think Aite would be able to give the gift.

"Mr. Yoshimura, it's almost time for you to make it clear, whose coffee is better?"

A strong male voice came from inside the door.

Aite knocked on the door.

"Of course it's mine!"

A woman retorted.

Through a gap, I could barely see the situation in the room.

The white-haired old man is the owner of the coffee shop, while the two waiters are arguing, and the atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant.

Full of ......

The taste of happiness.

"No, no, no, I still have the Demon Ape Blend!"

"What's that? Mr. Yoshimura, please shut up this guy. ”

The two waiters were still laughing, and the white-haired old man also showed a gentle and kind smile.

The world of the coffee shop, the world outside the coffee shop.

Two different worlds entirely.

Why?

Why?

She had clearly made up her mind, and she felt that she could forgive him.

She really wanted to tell him what she had done all these years and what had happened after Noro's death.

She thought a lot, and she started writing books.

She became a true human writer, sought after by many, and had human friends.

She really ......

Sometimes I want to experience what family affection is......

But seeing the smile on the man's face, all the courage in her heart dissipated.

That's right.

What did she go through, and this man was living so happily in this little coffee shop?

Happiness? Happiness?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Sure enough, when she came here, the choice from the beginning was wrong.

"Click."

The book was pinched and distorted in Ait's hand.

The look was cold again, and it was really a little colder than before.

Unforgivable.

That man is absolutely unforgivable.

Aite threw his debut work on the ground like garbage and walked back to Ayaraku.

"Let's go."

The girl took a deep breath and said.

Ayaluo nodded, and was also very knowledgeable and did not ask questions at such a time.

The silence lasted for half an hour.

The two of them walked on the night road and walked home in the wind.

"Aya-kun,"

"You know what?"

"I really wanted to rush in and kill that man just now."

Aite said suddenly.

Resentment flashed in her eyes, and her face was so cold for the first time.

"Do you want hot coffee?"

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight, it's a shame not to have a cup of coffee."

Ayaraku didn't seem to hear anything.

"I'm in a bad mood right now."

Aite narrowed his eyes.

"You need to relax when you're in a bad mood,"

"Whether it's drinking coffee, or killing people with a knife,"

"Miss Aite will definitely have her own choice."

Ayaro smiled.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

Aite frowned again.

The young man's performance was too calm.

Knowing her identity, she can still talk like this in this situation.

"I just learned the art of brewing coffee two days ago,"

"Miss Aite would like to taste it?"

Ayaraku is still calm.

If I had to describe that feeling, it would probably be as calm as Aite.

But the difference is that Aite has the strength to speak, and this salted fish ...... It's a war scumbag.

"If I find it unpleasant,"

"I'll eat your liver for supper."

Aite snorted coldly.

When she was angry, it was the first time that anyone dared to speak like this in front of her.

Whether it is a human or a species, no one dares to face her in a rage.
