In the morning, the sun is warm and bright.

When the street trees on both sides of the street are blown by the wind, large cherry petals fall down.

Small, fine spots of light appeared on the faces of the two men.

Marie and the maiden walked through the streets.

[Send me your location.] Ma Li took her mobile phone and said to Xu Qiansu on Line.

Xu Qiansu: [Want to come for coffee? According to Shiori, it hasn't been long since she bought this store, and she doesn't know how to use the equipment inside, so she can only make instant coffee, so the taste is not guaranteed. 】

After this sentence, Xu Qiansu sent his real-time location to Ma Li.

Marie clicked it open to determine its orientation...... It's some distance from where she's now, so let's take the tram.

While thinking, Ma Li typed and replied, "Coffee or something...... Were you alone with Lilia on the plane yesterday? 】

Xu Qiansu: [?] Why did you suddenly mention Liliai? 】

Marie: [Yes, or no?] (Morubéco puffs out his face and glaes at the center of the screen)

Xu Qiansu: [Yes.] 】

Marie: [What did you say to her?] 】

Xu Qiansu: [Hmm...... If it's no different from usual...... The only thing worth mentioning is that Lilia specially tied her hair short...... So what the hell is going on? 】

Marie: [You'll find out later...... In short, you give me a good reflection, now it's just a Liliai, and if you don't pay attention in the future, sooner or later you will be 'good ship'. 】

Xu Qiansu: ['Good ship'...... How does Miss Marley know about this kind of thing? 】

Marie: [I don't just know this, I also know the 'Warrior at Sunset'. 】

Warrior at sunset...... That is, Ultraman.

Miss Marie knows not only about the Kamen Rider series filmed by Dewen, but also about the Ultraman series?

Xu Qiansu turned his head to look at Shiori and asked, "What is the Ultraman series now?" ”

"Ultraman?" Shiori was standing behind the front desk, fiddling with the coffee machine with great interest, hearing this, she was stunned, and then showed a look of disdain, "How do I know how many special dramas are produced by Dewen Company for children?" Do you still watch this? ”

"It's because I want to show children, so I have to shoot more seriously than anyone else." Xu Qiansu replied casually.

"Say whatever you want......" Shiori put down the coffee machine and urged, "Have you talked enough?" Come and get to work, try to get everything ready by eleven o'clock, and go straight to business. ”

Xu Qiansu sighed lightly and replied to Ma Li, "Come and talk later." 】

Then he put down his phone, pulled up the cuffs of his white shirt, and said, "The café not only sells coffee, but also desserts...... What will you do for dessert? ”

"Can't you go to the dessert shop and buy it?" Shiori's tone was as if she was going out to buy a dish for dinner.

"Are you kidding?"

"What's the problem?" Shiori frowned and said dissatisfied.

"You come and open a coffee shop without knowing anything?"

"Don't answer questions with questions!"

The girl walked beside Ma Li, keeping her face as usual, and secretly glanced at the mobile phone in Ma Li's hand, thinking what was that?

"How long are you going to stay this time?" Ma Li put down her phone and suddenly asked.

"Huh? Probably...... Three or four days. The girl's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to hurry away from these people who knew her, so she said a short time.

"Came from thousands of miles to stay with him for three or four days?" Marley tilted her head.

"Hmm...... No matter how reluctant you are, there is a time to part...... I won't be so impulsive next time. The girl chewed on the words, answering as best she could in a way that would not arouse Marly's suspicions.

Marley raised her eyebrows slightly, is Lilia the one who can talk like that?

Perhaps, Marie also lacks understanding of Lilia...... After all, Lilia is not Xu Qiansu, and Ma Li usually doesn't put too much attention on her.

Ma Li retracted her gaze and didn't say much, let's talk about it when I see Xu Qiansu.

Coming to the tram stop, Ma Li scanned the code and entered the station......

The girl stood at the entrance of the station and blinked, thinking to herself that this little square box could be something like a customs clearance paperwork?

Without waiting for the girl to come, Ma Li looked back and saw that she had no long body, so she asked, "Lost your phone?" ”

Cell phone? Or is it the name of that little square box?

She nodded hurriedly and said, "There was some accident when I came, and although I wasn't injured, I lost a lot of things. ”

Marley has no doubt about him, after all, although Lilia is still in a white dress, she can also see a little embarrassment of living in the wild.

Plane crash? Or what?

Marie wasn't interested in Lilia's experience, so she didn't bother to ask.

She helped Lilia pay for it, the tram came in, and the two got on the tram.

It's not rush hour, so there aren't too many people on the train.

The two sat together, and Marley took a book out of her satchel and looked as if no one was around.

The girl's body was tense, her hands pinched the corners of her skirt, and her knees were tightly together, lest she be gone...... But there was no one on the other side of her.

After a while, the tram 'boomed' and sped on.

The sudden feeling of pushing her back made the girl's little face white, but she hurriedly covered her mouth so that she didn't let herself shout, but her body still lost her center of gravity and leaned directly on Ma Li's side.

Ma Li hurriedly raised her little hand to prop it on the seat next to her so that she was not implicated by the girl and fell, she frowned, and looked at it, "You... Injured? ”

Marie thought it was Liliai's weak health that she couldn't sit on the tram.

The girl hurriedly moved away from Ma Li, lowered her eyes and said, "It's not hurt...... It's just a little tired, and I don't notice it for a while...... I'm sorry. ”

Marie glanced Lilia up and down before slowly shaking her head, and with a brief 'attention,' she picked up the book and looked at it again.

The girl pinched the corner of her skirt with one hand, and grasped the railing tightly with the other, and her body tensed even more...... She stole a sideways glance at the book in Marly's hand...... Although it was a little obscure, she could read it, and it seemed that the text had not changed.

Very good.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had finally found a sense of familiarity in a strange time.

She relaxed a few moments and looked up at the window.

The bright sunlight shone obliquely through the window, reflecting the dust inside the tram, and then flew over the pretty faces of the girl and Marly.

The girl didn't say a word, silently observed, analyzed, and came up with information.

After the tram stopped for two stops, she suddenly remembered the 'Xu Qiansu' that Ma Li had just mentioned.

Since I want to see her (the girl thinks Xu Qiansu is a girl), I should know more about her, in case she asks me any difficult questions at that time.

After pondering the sentence in her heart for a while, she looked at Ma Li and asked in a calm and curious tone, "What is Xu Qiansu doing?" ”

"Xu Qiansu?" Marley's eyebrows furrowed again, looking at the girl...... Lilia is usually called Xu Qiansu or something, "Mr. Qiansu", "Mr. Xu" and the like.

When did she call Xu Qiansu by her first name?

The girl's heart was pounding, and she realized that she had said something wrong, and her tone remained unchanged, explaining, "Last time we met...... We weren't too pleasant and I wasn't happy ......"

Marie glanced at Lilia again before retracting her scrutinizing gaze.

You guessed it!

Fang Cai's words can only be called a problem, and the girl replied like this, neither completely pointing to the title, but also perfectly answering the question of the title.

Ma Li said lightly, "He works at Shiori's café...... Presumably it was Shiori who made some request for him. ”

He!?

Male!?

Good thing I didn't use 'her' just now.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then nodded slightly, sensing that Ma Li was a little dissatisfied with this matter, and said, "Shiori is indeed harsh on him. ”

Ma Li calmly turned the page of the book, and then said with a little dissatisfaction, "It's okay if he refuses, but there is no way, he is that kind of person, Shiori has helped him a lot, in order to repay the favor, as long as Shiori's request is not to let him be separated from me, then Xu Qiansu will consider agreeing." ”

It's a bit narcissistic...... The girl felt a little funny, but her face did not change, and she continued to respond, "It's good to be affectionate and responsible." ”

"That's not good." Ma Li said lightly, but did not explain the reason.

Like Xu Qiansu, Ma Li was reluctant to talk to anyone about her and Xu Qiansu.

Why is it bad? The girl didn't dare to ask, lest she be found out about anything.

She began to wonder what kind of sacredness was this 'Xu Qiansu'? Why is it affectionate and responsible, but the black-haired girl next to him is so dissatisfied?

The girl is very curious about Xu Qiansu and Ma Li's past.

Wait, now is not the time to be curious...... The girl hurriedly corrected her mentality, and on the premise of not being discovered, she stayed by the side of these people for about three days, and then left directly...... You must not stay for a long time, otherwise your identity will be exposed, and there will be endless troubles.

Always be cautious.

Thinking of this, the girl's sitting posture also subconsciously corrected a little.

"Because the last time we separated, it wasn't very pleasant...... Will he be angry? The girl continued to inquire about Xu Qiansu.

"He rarely gets angry." Ma Li didn't take her eyes off the book, she said indifferently, "I remember that the time when he was most angry was when he quarreled with me, but ......"

Ma Li paused, and then asked calmly, "How could he have an unpleasant experience with you?" He should be very gentle with you. ”

Marly's inquiring gaze was like a sharp blade, stabbing straight at the girl.

The girl's heartbeat is a little faster, which is the end of many words...... It's a lot of mistakes, but I don't know anything about them, and this kind of thing will happen sooner or later.

Her smart little brain was running quickly, and she just thought of an excuse, but she looked at Ma Li and calmly withdrew her gaze, "Forget it, this is a matter for the two of you, I'm not interested." ”

The girl silently withdrew her gaze, feeling that she had talked too much...... If you keep talking, you might be able to see something.

In a short time, the tram arrives at the station.

The girl left the tram stop after Marley and walked down the street.

Large cherry blossoms are spread on the bluestone floor tiles, and sometimes there is a subtle 'crunch' sound when you step on them.

The morning sun shines through the foliage and through the gaps in the tall buildings on both sides of the road.

As long as the object is not Xu Qiansu, there are generally not many words from Ma Li.

The girl was afraid that Ma Li would find out something, so she didn't say much.

She silently recalled the news she had discovered, constructing in her mind the conversations that might happen later.

Xu Qiansu, a responsible person, a gentle person.

He would care why he was so embarrassed...... How do you answer yourself? Should Cresseria's existence be exposed?

Creselia should be able to tell him, after all, in 2,000 years, the world humans will live in peace with Pokémon, so I shouldn't have anything to bring a Cresalia.

What excuse should I use?

On the way here, you met a robber?

Was there an earthquake or a typhoon?

Why don't you just save trouble and say that you have amnesia?

That's right, it's good to say that you have amnesia and don't remember anything.

On the way here, I encountered an accident and suffered a little head injury, so I lost my memory...... But it's not that I don't remember anything, it's just that I can't remember some places, which can also explain why I was able to talk back and forth with the black-haired girl next to me just now.

The girl nodded secretly in her heart, it was best that she didn't know about her amnesia, but that Xu Qiansu 'noticed her amnesia'...... In this way, there is less sense of disobedience.

You have to grasp the degree of this.

After thinking about it, I saw that the two of them had already arrived in front of a small store...... Located at the far corner of the street, this shop is flanked by a Carlos-style restaurant on the right and a small open space with a few cherry blossoms on the left.

The sign on the door of the store is very brand new, there is no dust at all, and it looks like it has just been ordered...... the two letters 'iS' are outlined in red art.

There are also two pots of flowers planted in front of the door...... A pot of magnolias, a pot of violets.

A young man in a white shirt with his black hair tied into a braid and hanging down behind him was squatting in front of a flower pot to water the flowers, and the sun of Hexi was shining on his back, and the slender shadow was pulled out diagonally, and it disappeared into the shadow of the coffee shop.

The girl subconsciously looked at him sideways, but saw that Ma Li beside her had stopped.

"Karuka~" The little marsupial jumped lightly from Marly's arms, and then ran to the young man's side with his little short legs, looking up at him.

The young man looked back at the Teasy Beast, slightly stunned, then hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, with a shallow smile, and then put down the kettle in his hand, stretched out his hand to hook the Chin of the Teasy Beast, and asked, "Have fun outside?" ”

The voice is so good, it's like a beautiful wallwash...... The girl thought subconsciously.

"Karui~" The little bag beast rubbed along the boy's hand, then took something out of the small pocket, wrapped his hands together, stretched out in front of the boy's face, and then opened it suddenly...... Inside is a small tomato.

The boy looked surprised, then took the tomato and stuffed it into his mouth.

The Pouchmon laughed.

Xu Qiansu laughed with her.

The girl silently looked at Xu Qiansu and the little pouch.

After a while, Xu Qiansu raised his eyes and saw that the sun was shining on his handsome face, and the breeze was blowing, and a few cherry blossoms fluttered in front of his face.

He saw Ma Li at a glance, smiled lightly, and then saw the girl, the smile on his face stiffened slightly, and then his eyebrows frowned slightly, understanding why Ma Li said that before.

Xu Qiansu stood up, took a few steps forward, looked at the girl, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

The girl looked at Xu Qiansu's eyes, those dark eyes were so good-looking, these eyes looked at herself so fixedly......

However, the girl is not a good-looking party, so although Xu Qiansu looks like she likes all women in the world, the girl still keeps calm and uses the answer that she finalized when she chatted with Ma Li just now.

"I can't bear you to ......," she said in a tone that seemed to be talking to herself, a little scared and a little ashamed to say it.

Hearing this, Xu Qiansu's expression did not change, he looked at the girl silently, and after a while, he asked, "Why don't you contact me?" ”

"On the way here, I encountered some accidents...... The phone is gone...... "The girl didn't look at Xu Qiansu, but looked down at her toes, looking like she had already made a mistake.

Ma Li folded her arms and looked at the magnolia in front of the door, apparently irrelevant to her.

"Accident......" Xu Qiansu frowned tightly, and glanced up and down at the girl again.

The girl was ready to be asked by Xu Qiansu.

But unexpectedly, Xu Qiansu didn't ask any further, he said, "It seems that you have suffered a lot...... Let's take a shower first, I just looked, although the attic of the store is simple, but the bathroom, kitchen, and beds have everything...... It seems that the previous owner lived in the store. ”

The girl was slightly stunned, raised her little face, and looked at Xu Qiansu.

But Xu Qiansu had already looked up at the second floor and said loudly, "Shiori, is there hot water upstairs?" ”

After a few moments, a pleasant female voice came loudly from above, "Yes, I just cleaned up the bathroom...... What are you doing? ”

"Lilia is here, let her take a shower first." Xu Qiansu replied.

"Lilia?" Shiori's voice was full of astonishment, the window 'creaked' open, she poked her little head out of it, and glanced at the girl from top to bottom, but she didn't bother to ask, just said loudly to Xu Qiansu, "The water bill will be deducted from your salary!" ”

"I still have a salary?"

"I said that I would give you shares, how could I not have a salary." Shiori rolled her eyes, then beckoned to the girl, "Lilia, long time no see." ”

Shiori and Lilia had met each other during their winter camping.

The girl beckoned to Shiori and said loudly, "Shiori, long time no see." ”

Shiori waved her hand again, "Come on." ”

The girl looked at Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu pushed open the door of the store, and the soft sound of a bell came, "Follow me." ”

The girl silently stepped into the coffee shop, and a sweet smell hit the tip of her nose.

Xu Qiansu walked around the bar and table, but saw a wooden staircase around the corner at the end of the store.

When the girl stepped on it, the stairs creaked.

After a corner on the stairs, an attic appeared in front of you.

It used to seem to be a place to store clutter, so there are some traces of the walls, but you can also see traces of careful decoration, single sofa, wooden table, LCD TV on the table, brand new bed leaning against the corner, Xiaoice box on the counter, simple kitchen utensils and the bathroom in the corner.

Shiori is wearing a mask, taking off her shoes, and standing on a tatami mat in black stockings, wiping the table with a rag.

Seeing the two of them, she just pointed to the bathroom in the corner, then withdrew her gaze and wiped the table with a serious face.

"Did you bring a change of clothes?" Xu Qiansu looked back and asked.

The girl shook her head.

"You are about the same size as Miss Marly, I'll borrow one from her later." Xu Qiansu retracted his gaze, pushed open the bathroom door, and then pointed to the white bathrobe hanging in the corner, "Shiweaving has a habit of cleanliness, so these things are all newly replaced, you can use them directly." ”

"Hey, the money for these things has to be deducted from your salary." Although Shiori was carefully wiping the table, she still secretly listened to the conversation between the two, and when she heard this, she spoke directly.

"Whatever you want...... But you're short of the money? ”

"There is no shortage, but no deduction of your money, how can I let you know that you are using my things?" Shiori didn't look back and asked rhetorically.

Xu Qiansu didn't say much, he pointed to the mixing valve under the sprinkler again, "Twist to the left, it's hot water, twist to the right, it's cold water......"

Saying that, Xu Qiansu demonstrated it again.

The girl silently wrote it down, but tilted her head to look at him, "I'm not an ancient person, even if you don't explain, I understand." ”

"You have a good family, and the shower equipment you use may be different from mine, so I just explained a few more words." Xu Qiansu smiled and pointed to the bathtub again, "You should be familiar with this." ”

"When you're done, I'll put on my bathrobe first, and I'll put my clothes at the ......bathroom door later," Xu Qiansu smiled again, "I'll stay down until you go downstairs." ”

The girl thought about it for a while, and then realized that Xu Qiansu was so that she didn't have to be afraid of being looked at.

She smiled and said from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you." ”

Although Xu Qiansu's gentleness is aimed at this girl called 'Liliai', not herself...... But in any case, kindness cannot be left unappreciated.

Xu Qiansu shook his head slightly, then turned around and left, closing the bathroom door.

The girl withdrew her gaze and pulled the bathroom door again to make sure it didn't open suddenly, before she unbuttoned her dress and took off her safety pants, revealing Lili's skin as white as mutton fat.

It's just that...... The girl lowered her eyes and tilted her head...... How do you untie this corset?

"Oh? Don't you spend a little more time with your Lilia? Shiori saw Xu Qiansu come out of the bathroom so quickly, raised her eyebrows slightly, and quipped, "Or are you so fast?" ”

Xu Qiansu didn't bother to pay attention to this girl who was full of nonsense, he looked up and down in the attic a few times, and then asked, "Do you want to live here?" ”

"It's boring...... Shiori snorted before replying, "What am I doing here?" It's small and narrow, and it lives here, and it will depress me to death. ”

"And you're still cleaning so seriously?"

"This is my coffee shop, and you have to take it seriously wherever you go." Poetry is the color of the road.

Only when it comes to this coffee shop will Shiori restrain her usual erratic attitude and become serious.

Xu Qiansu realized this, and then asked, "Before I rescued Scarlet, I worked eight hours a day in the coffee shop, and in exchange, this attic was given to me, how about it?" ”

"Huh?" Shiori frowned slightly, glanced in the direction of the bathroom, and then asked, "Do you want to live for Lily Ai?" Is it bad to go out and rent a hotel for her? ”

"The hotel, of course no coffee shop, is safe to stay here...... At least I come here every day. Xu Qiansu replied.

Shiori was stunned for a moment, and then a pair of beautiful eyes instantly bent into fox eyes, and she quipped, "I'm not your gun room here." ”

Xu Qiansu rolled his eyes, "So it's okay?" ”

"Of course you can, it just so happens that we are short of manpower, so let Princess Alola like Lilia do a day job for me, not to mention how much fulfillment there is." Shiori reached out and took off her mask, revealing a delicate little face, and she asked curiously, "But do you really want to raise her as an underground lover?" Why don't you let her live with you? Afraid that Cordelia will castrate you? ”

"Because there are reasons that can't be said."

"Che, are you a lover or not?" Shiori asked dissatisfied.

Xu Qiansu no longer has an endless fight with Shiori.

He walked down the stairs, only to see that Marley was already sitting at the bar, making coffee, with a calm face.

The pickpocket cat lies on the table by the window, lazily basking in the sun.

The aroma of coffee enters the tip of Xu Qiansu's nose...... It seems that Marley still pours over her coffee, rather than simply using a coffee machine.

"Miss Marley can even make coffee?" Xu Qiansu sat across from her, like a guest, and asked.

"I can do anything." Ma Li focused on the operation, did not look at Xu Qiansu, pointed casually, and said casually, "Where the clothes are placed, you can go and get them yourself." ”

Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, and looked in the direction of Ma Li's finger, but saw that a set of clean clothes had been neatly stacked on the chair.

It seems that Ma Li has already guessed that Xu Qiansu is going to ask her to borrow clothes.

Xu Qiansu smiled and said, "This young lady, please have a cup of hand-poured coffee." ”

Ma Li poured a glass of moo milk for Xu Qiansu, put it on the bar, and pushed it forward.

"Miss Marry...... I want coffee. ”

"I know, but you don't like coffee, so why pretend to be cool at the moment?"

"It's not pretending to be cool, it's emotional, Miss Marry."

"Huh?" Ma Li pointed her chin with her fingers, glanced at Xu Qiansu, and thought seriously with her little face, and then actually made a cup of black coffee for Xu Qiansu.

She placed it on the table and pushed forward, "Your coffee, guest." ”

Xu Qiansu laughed, he picked up the coffee, blew hot air, and took a sip, "Slightly...... It's bitter. ”

Marie laughed happily.

"Fifty dollars, thank you." She then continued.

Xu Qiansu touched his pocket...... Didn't bring any money.

He picked up the Teasbag and placed it on the bar, saying, "No money...... Miss masturbates this little guy for free all day, and our account is waived, okay? ”

The Teasupial looked at the two of them with a tilted head.

"I'm just a clerk, not a boss." Ma Li wiped the bar with a rag, didn't look at Xu Qiansu, and said casually, "This kind of thing, please find the boss." ”

After speaking, the two laughed together.

Shiori cleaned up and walked down the stairs with a thumping shoulder.

Xu Qiansu drank the moo milk, and then pushed the coffee forward, "It seems that I don't have this kind of thing to share with this blessing." ”

With that, he took Marlie's clothes and walked to the attic.

Shiori crossed Xu Qiansu, sat in his place, and saw that there was still a lot of coffee in front of him, so he reached out and took it.

"Wait." Marie snatched the coffee from Shiori's hand, then took out another cup of freshly brewed coffee, "You drink this." ”

"Huh?" Shiori crooked her little face, but she didn't care, after working for so long, she was already too tired to work.

Xu Qiansu stepped into the attic, came to the bathroom door, squatted down, put down his clothes, and said, "I put my clothes here." ”

"Okay, thank you."

Xu Qiansu stood up with his knees, looked at the bathroom door in front of him, and after a little silence, he took a few steps forward, lowered his voice, and asked, "Liliai...... Where is it? ”
