The next time I saw Elena Miyano, it was almost half a month later.

Shirakawa Kiyoshi received another phone invitation and came to the Miyano clinic.

"Okay, go back......"

Timing well, when Shirakawa Kiyoshi came here, Miyano Elena just saw off the last guest.

Half a month passed, and she seemed to have changed back to that scared of life, and the eyes of the two only looked at each other for a moment, and she looked away.

"Welcome, Karasuma-san."

Compared with the last time, Miyano Elena's mood today seems to be a little low, and there is a faint negative aura on her body, much like the kind of woman who is unhappy in marriage, which makes Bai Heqing can't help but think of the words that Sharon analyzed him before......

[Shirakawa, you guy, it's ...... for that kind of Japanese woman who is unhappy in marriage]

Well, okay, that's it, that's all it takes, it's rude to think about it any longer.

Pressing down on a chattering Q version of Little Sharon in his mind, Shirakawa Qing also smiled at Miyano Elena.

"See you again, Dr. Miyano."

Like before, he is wearing a mask today.

This is a headache for Shirakawa Kiyoshi, he does not have the special skills to change or cover his appearance at will like Okino Mina, so after the death of the character "Shirakawa Kiyoshi", his own travel has actually been affected a lot.

[You have to find a way to do it......]

[It's really inconvenient to always wear a mask to go out like this, and so are the eyes, which is easy to be noticed......]

"Did Mr. Miyano pick up your daughter today?" Sitting in the vacant seat next to him, Bai Heqing asked.

"Well, it's Hiroshita's turn today." Elena Miyano nodded slightly.

She had told Bai Heqing before that the couple had always taken turns to pick up the child, and they had never fixed which one had to go.

"Is that good?" Hesitating, Bai Heqing asked this sentence.

"What?" Somewhat confused, Miyano Elena finally turned her head to look at him again.

"Since we're going to talk about cooperation, wouldn't it be nice if Mr. Miyano wasn't there? After all, the Karasuma Group is going to cooperate with the two of you......"

Bai Heqing considered his words, trying to make his tone seem businesslike and less offensive.

In his mind, the Q version of Little Sharon who was chattering in his ear jumped out again.

Maybe it was because of Sharon's words before, Bai Heqing felt that his thinking seemed to have been affected a lot.

Twice in a row, he was invited by Elena Miyano, and twice in a row, it was a case of Atsuji Miyano's absence......

[This guy is Shirakawa, it's ...... for that kind of Japanese woman who is unhappy in marriage]

Well, all right, stop, Sharon, it's rude to everyone to go on any longer.

Bai Heqing once again, pressed the desperately struggling Q version of Sharon in his mind.

"Ah, that's what you mean......"

Miyano Elena was obviously a clever person, and she immediately heard the hidden meaning of Shirakawa's words, and immediately smiled at him and said:

"Please rest assured that my husband knows about my invitation to meet me.

I'm not afraid of Karasuma-sama's jokes, our family has never made a clear distinction between what husbands and wives should do and what they shouldn't do, and although my husband is very talented in scientific research, he has always been a little slow in dealing with interpersonal relationships, so I took the initiative to take over the matter of contacting you...... Don't worry. ”

"I see."

Miyano Elena seriously responded to Shirakawa Kiyoshi's concerns, which made him feel relieved, and at the same time, he finally completely pressed down the Q version of Little Sharon in his mind.

"Come to think of it, Dr. Miyano, you must be very trusted by the people around you."

This is Shirakawa Kiyoshi in disguise to express his gratitude to Elena Miyano.

After all, what he said just now was actually a little offensive to a woman, and Miyano Elena not only did not rise in the slightest, but responded to him seriously......

"It's nothing."

Having understood Bai Heqing's words again, Miyano Elena shook her head slightly and said:

"It's better to say that Mr. Karasuma-chan is willing to express your inner worries so truly, and this kind of behavior of not hiding it is a little surprising to me.

It's my speculation, but I don't think you're the kind of person who pretends to be inconsistent......"

The two seem to have unconsciously started the mode of "business blowing each other" again......

"Mr. Karasuma, I have asked you this time because I have a few questions for you, because it is related to our future cooperation, so I hope that you can maintain this sincerity in these matters."

Looking at Bai Heqing's eyes, Miyano Elena said seriously, in her tone at the moment, there was no longer the fear of life at the beginning.

As Bai Heqing had speculated before, once the woman in front of her entered the work mode, she would be able to completely overcome this shortcoming of herself.

"Okay." Bai Heqing nodded, and at the same time raised his hand to signal her to ask.

"First of all, can you tell me first...... What's your real name? ”

With his eyes fixed on Shirakawa Kiyoshi, Elena Miyano asked a question that was completely beyond his expectations.

“……”

Not so long ago.

"Elena, what did you think about what I told you earlier?"

At the Miyano house at night, Miyano Elena stood in front of the landline, she took the microphone, looked back at the Miyano father and daughter who were playing with each other in the living room behind her, and said to Mary Akai on the other end of the phone:

"Sister, let's not talk about this matter for now, I want to ask you one more thing."

"And what?" On the phone, Mary Akai sighed when she heard this.

Her tone was not impatient, but helpless.

Just listening to this sentence, she knew that her sister had not given up the idea of wanting to cooperate with that Karasuma group.

"I'd like to ask you to help me investigate someone."

Pretending not to hear her sister's tone, Miyano Elena recalled Bai Heqing's appearance and said:

"It's a male, in his thirties, medium build, somewhat thin, East Asian ...... appearance"

"Name." Marie Akai interrupted her.

"I only know that his surname is Karasuma, and the specific name is not clear......"

"Is that the Karasuma Group the person who came into contact with you?" Marie Akai realized this immediately.

"Hmm......" After hesitating for a moment, Miyano Elena nodded and answered in a low voice, she felt like she was going to be scolded again.

"It's really ......"

However, the expected reprimand of her sister did not come, and Mary Akai just sighed again and said:

"You guys...... This is the last time, try to be as detailed as possible about what this person looks like. ”

"Hmm...... I don't know about this because he wears a mask all the time...... But he has one characteristic! His eyes are completely different from ordinary people, and his pupils are pure purple, which is very special! ”

【Pure purple pupil ......】

Hearing this description, Mary Akai couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment.

"yes, that's a ...... It's a rare feature. ”

Quickly reining in her thoughts, Marie Akai spoke calmly.

"Okay, you wait for the next two days, I'll check it for you......"

"Well, sister, thank you."

"If you really want to thank me, you guys should quickly break off the relationship with that Karasuma Group!"

On the phone, Mary Akai's reprimand arrived late.
