05: The Invisible Third Man

"No, I just want to shorten the time of the commission, observe it for two more days, and end the protection early if no one follows me for two days."

Chiyuki Mei explained seriously.

She actually felt that it was a bit childish for her to hire a college student as a bodyguard, but she really didn't know anyone else, and she didn't have any more money to hire a professional bodyguard.

As long as I don't follow you, naturally no one will follow you.

Is that what it means to create demand without demand?

Shirakawa complained inwardly while recalling his mission requirements.

Protect Chiyuki Mei for a month,

It's not like you say it's ahead of time!

"Yes."

Shirakawa said with a smile, he had already decided to take the time to follow the beautiful withdrawn honor student in front of him tomorrow.

Qianxue Meiyi was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that Kuraki-kun was really empathetic and very easy to talk.

This made her feel a little embarrassed.

"That's... Kuraki-kun, what flavor of bento do you like to eat, and are there any taboos? ”

Chiyuki Mei decided to make amends at tomorrow's lunch, and wanted to shorten the protection period as much as possible.

"It's okay if you don't eat it, you can just watch it and do it."

With that, Shirakawa walked out of the room, closed the door, and walked straight to the elevator.

He planned to go to the 5th floor and find out the correct house number of the murderer.

There is no intention of inviting beautiful honor students into the apartment to visit.

Not only did Qianxue Meiyi not get angry because of this, but felt that this way of getting along was very easy.

If Shirakawa really invited her into the house to talk, she didn't know how to refuse, after all, she had never been into a male classmate's house.

Before Shirakawa entered the elevator, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Chiyuki Meiyi,

"I live in 1002, don't knock on the wrong door next time."

Qianxue nodded dumbfoundedly.

"Wait, Kuraki-kun."

Qianxue Mei Yi seemed to have mustered up enough courage and also walked into the elevator.

"Anything else?"

Looking at her flushed cheeks, Shirakawa almost thought she was about to confess again.

"I... You have to go to Yihe Supermarket to see if there are any discounted ingredients. ”

Qianxue Mei felt that she had surpassed her limit, and in one day, she said more than 5 words with the same person of the opposite sex.

Maybe it's because they've been invisible neighbors for a long time, and they've been classmates for three years, which makes Chiyuki Mei have a strange feeling of familiarity and strangeness to Shirakawa.

It was this inexplicable feeling that made her and Shirakawa stay alone in the elevator, and they wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

Shirakawa can see that most of the girls in front of him who are blushing are social phobia.

With social phobia and working part-time all the time, the family must have a lot of debts, right?

Bai Chuan suddenly guessed in his heart, and preliminarily judged that this was a very sensible girl.

[Yihe supermarket is two streets away from the apartment building, and the Huidong supermarket downstairs is close at hand.

The girl had to walk so far in order to avoid being accosted by the obscene boss downstairs.

Why don't you convince her to go straight to Huidong's supermarket?

When you are molten with the boss, you can take a picture and use this to blackmail the girl, otherwise you will send a photo of her being molested by the lewd uncle to her classmates, and after their spread, the girl's reputation will be ruined.

It's not impossible to choose to bow your head for the sake of fame...]

Again, the narrator gives a hint.

The corners of Shirakawa's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that he had underestimated the severity of the narration.

"When I went out in the morning, I noticed that there was a discount promotion in the Huidong supermarket downstairs, do you want me to accompany you to the supermarket downstairs?"

Shirakawa asked casually, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Qianxue Meiyi was stunned, she didn't expect Kuraki-kun to be so understanding.

If he can accompany him to the supermarket downstairs, then she can save a lot of time, and she has also seen the promotion downstairs, and it is fake if she is not impressed.

Qianxue Yayi nodded: "Then Cangmu-kun can just choose some ingredients you like." ”

"But I have to go to the 5th floor to deliver a delivery first."

Shirakawa held up the courier box in his hand.

Qianxue Mei didn't ask why, just nodded obediently.

She probably thought that Shirakawa had taken a part-time job as a courier.

Since Shirakawa is willing to accompany her to the supermarket, she accompanies Shirakawa to deliver a courier, and it is in this apartment building, which is nothing to worry about.

Chiyuki Mei followed behind Shirakawa, and the two got out of the elevator one after the other, knocking on the doors of rooms 1 and 2 in succession, but did not find Jiro Matsunoda.

Shirakawa came to the door of room 03, and Chiyuki Mei instinctively took a few steps back, because just now Shirakawa made two consecutive mistakes, causing her to make brief eye contact with two strangers, which made her a little nervous.

Now she just wants to hurry to the supermarket and hide back in her apartment to make a bento.

Shirakawa didn't mind, this was a dangerous thing to do.

However, since rooms 1 and 2 have been confirmed not to be the residence of Jiro Matsunoda, there is only room 3.

Therefore, Shirakawa did not intend to knock on the door, his purpose had been achieved.

Just as he turned to leave, the door to room 3 opened.

Cold sweat broke out in Shirakawa's palms, and he chuckled in his heart.

Or do you want to confront a serial murderer?

Even though he knew that after he was reported and arrested in prison, it was basically goodbye, but Shirakawa was still a little worried.

What if you startle the snake yourself and scare him away? If you turn back, you will face the crazy revenge of a murderer.

Qianxue Meiyi will also be affected.

I'm still too imprudent.

Shirakawa was still blaming himself, when he heard a crisp child's voice behind him.

A little girl with braids, a white face, a sweet appearance, wearing black-framed glasses, and about 8 years old, opened the door.

She crossed her hands on her hips and asked in a milky voice,

"Is it a courier? I used my mother's account to place an order and bought two boxes of wine chocolates, it's my chocolate, right? ”

Shirakawa kept smiling and looked back at the little girl, "Is it Mr. Matsuno's house?" ”

"No, my name is Ueo Masumi, and my mother is Miko Ueo!"

Ueo replied proudly.

Shirakawa was stunned, Miko Ueo and Masumi Ueo? This name is inexplicably familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere, don't think about it, it must be in the diary.

It's just that there are a lot of female neighbors recorded in the diary, and Shirakawa doesn't have the ability to remember, and there are very few people who can remember.

Wait, how so? Is the narrator mistaken? Or is someone in these three households lying?!

Before Shirakawa could brainstorm ideas, he heard the familiar narration sound again.

[Living on the 5th floor, but not in any family, do you guess, will he always hide in the sofa in Miko Ueo's bedroom, as the third person who exists invisibly in their family? 】

it!

I've been hiding in someone else's couch! Or the sofa in the bedroom.

What a morbid thing!

[Thinking that he may be able to see Miko Ueo sleeping sweetly on the bed in translucent silk pajamas every day, do you think that the sofa is also a good habitat? 】

Shirakawa ignores the narrator and decides to call the police immediately to prevent the mother and daughter from being harmed.

Moreover, he did not rule out the possibility that Jiro Matsuno had already heard his voice by hiding in the bedroom sofa.

If he hears it, he will most likely transfer directly, or grab Masumi Ueo as a hostage.

"It should be a mistake, it's a prank, your courier is still in my courier car downstairs, if you are in a hurry, you can go with me to get it, or let your mother go downstairs with me to get it."

Shirakawa said nonsense.

Qianxue Yayi glanced at him curiously, he still has a courier car? Sure enough, did you do a part-time courier job?

Ueo Masumi patted his chest, "Of course, I will pick up my own courier, and besides, my mother went to work and came back at night." ”

There is only one young girl with big nerves at home, no wonder she can hide back on the sofa after killing people and throwing her body.

Shirakawa complained inwardly, but there was a professional smirk on his face.

"Let's go, Masumi-chan."

Masumi Ueo, a cute girl with braided braids, immediately changed her slippers, put on small red leather shoes, brought the key, closed the door, and walked between Shirakawa and Chiyuki Mei.

Her big black eyes looked left and right, and finally decided to get close to Qianxue Meiyi, who was beautiful but a little cold.

"Sister, are you the girlfriend of your big brother?"
