Tsurumi squatted in the dark space tunnel, like a cat that suddenly couldn't find its way home, and closed himself in place.

The ball of light above his head circled around him, dangling in front of the boy, clinging to the back of his hand, trying to comfort the frustrated kitten.

"You're in my eyes." The crane seemed disgusted when he saw the statement, but he didn't wave it away.

The light cluster emits a faint fluorescence, this light is soft and not dazzling, and it is not too bright, it is impossible to reach the eyes. It's just a rhetoric. [The door] affixed the hand of the crane to the described, and finally flew back to his head, and hung over his head again.

Tsuru saw a long sigh: "Words are useless, isn't this surprise destined to be given today?"

Tsurumi didn't even understand why his spirit of speech failed, and why he didn't find Amuro twice. Have the blues. Today's Tsurumi cat is a melancholy cat.

"Forget it." Tsurumi Shu quickly convinced himself, "The surprise can be saved for next time, I'm so tired today, just call Brother Tou." "Everything in [the door] is fine, but there is no cell phone signal.

If Tsurumi wants to make a call, he must find an exit nearby.

He wanted to borrow a way from the apartment where he had fallen to the valley, but then he thought about it, this is not right!

Mr. Curly-haired Ghost had accused him several times for "trespassing on private houses", and he also choked back with a straight face, only to find out that it was himself who was wrong....

Fortunately, he had just run fast, and if he had taken a few steps slower, he would have been ridiculed by them.

I can't go back now! Tsurumi will feel embarrassed, and he will not be happy to listen to the cynicism of others.

There are thousands of good roads, and he can choose another one!

"Please, open a door for me where no one is passing."

Tsurumi raised his head slightly, and thought about the small ball of light for a while before taking a deep breath and opening the door closest to him as if he were dead.

★

Tsurumi got out of the TV at the recycling station, and he quickly slipped away while the owner of the recycling station was away. He trotted all the way and slipped out the small door of the recycling depot before he breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't have to run, Yan Ling and [Men] chose this place for him, which means that no one will come to the waste recycling station for at least half an hour.

But when the crane sees it, he will be weak-hearted.

I always feel like I'm trespassing on a house again.. …

Tsurumi Shu took out his mobile phone from his pocket and walked aimlessly while making a phone call.

"

; Honk...... Toot ......"

The phone rang for a long time and no one answered, and finally hung up automatically.

Tsurumi saw Shu on the side of the road, staring blankly at the screen of his phone. He didn't believe in evil, and he called again. "Answer the phone...... Brother Tou, answer the phone quickly......" Tsurumi muttered.

"Dut...... Honk...... Toot toot!"

Once again, the phone automatically hung up.

Tsurumi said: ??

The young man stared at his phone with a stunned face, and said in disbelief: "Brother Tou won't answer my call?!"

The sky is falling apart, the earth is shattering, the earth is shattering! This is the first time since they met that Toru Amuro has not been able to answer his phone in time.

Tsurumi angrily extinguished the screen of his mobile phone, and with a little inexplicable grievance and dissatisfaction, he shrank into the alley, and squatted down again to close himself.

He shrank in the shadows, staring at the slanting line of light and shadow on the ground in a daze.

A few seconds later, he slowly pulled out his phone, found Toru Amuro's line, and sent a few messages.

[Brother Tou, what are you doing, why don't you answer my call?] [Are you busy?]

[I'm in Tokyo, but I can't find you.] [I'm alone and don't know this way, can you pick me up?]

Tsurumi Shu is very slow to hold the phone, showing that it is a carelessness. But he typed so fast that it almost left an afterimage, and the lines swished down the network cables.

Tsurumi thought about it, and also included a few poor cat crying emojis.

He stared at the phone screen for a few minutes, squatting until his feet were numb, and he still couldn't wait for a reply from there. Even the messages he sent in the past were still unread.

"I'm angry, I'm really angry." Tsurumi angrily stuffed the phone back into his pocket, out of sight and out of mind.

"What do I do now......

It was when Tsurumi was worried alone that he heard a sweet "meow" coming from the side.

Tsuru turned his head when he saw the voice, and then he realized that he was squatting next to a cardboard box. There is a dirty little cat living in the cardboard box, and he is in a hurry to contact Amuro, so he is unaware of the cat.

The little flower cat poked her head out of the cardboard box: "Meow meow~" [Hello. ]

Tsurumi's heart was captured in an instant. He couldn't help but meow back: "Meow!" [You're good too!]

Tsurumi is fluent in cat and dog language, and in general, he will reply to cats in human language

Today, I didn't restrain myself for a while, so I used the cat language.

Since they have all been "meowed" out, they simply let it fly directly. No one saw it anyway! Tsuru and the little flower cat, you "meow", I "Mi", so lively.

Tsurumi was immersed in the joy of scratching the cat, and didn't notice that a pink-haired man was standing behind him. Shuichi Akai came over on purpose.

He was still carrying a bag of potatoes in his hand and had just returned from the supermarket. In the distance, I saw a DK-looking teenager standing on the side of the road, making a phone call with an ugly face.

The phone should not have been connected, so the boy hung his head in frustration, and took a few steps back, crouched down and hugged his knees without speaking. After a few seconds, he shrank back into the corner, completely out of sight.

Shuichi Akai's eyes were good, and he could see his white lips at a glance. I was worried that the teenager was not feeling well and needed help urgently. He frowned and stepped forward quickly.

Unexpectedly, I saw the boy having fun with a stray cat.

"Meow~" Tsurumi reached out to scratch the stray cat's chin and teased it: "Meow, meow, meow, meow!" (Do you want to touch it?) Is it possible here, what about this strength? What's your name? )

Little Flower Cat tilted her neck in satisfaction: "Mi~" (I don't have a name yet, oh, my name is Mimi.) )

"So, your name is Mimi." Tsurumi Shu laughed softly: "I also know a three-flowered cat named Xiao Mi, you and he are very cute."

Suddenly, a deep man's laughter came from behind him. Tsurumi reached out to touch the cat's hand, vigilantly turning back.

Not far from him stood a tall, pink-haired man with a pair of glasses and a smile on his lips.

This man is very strange, obviously the weather has begun to slowly become hot, but he is still wearing a high-necked shirt, blocking his neck tightly.

And, too, a squint.

Tsurumi hurriedly got up, blocked the little flower cat behind him, and asked carefully, "Hello, is there anything wrong?"

Akai Shuichi shook his head: "I just saw you squat down suddenly, worried that you were not feeling well, and came forward to check if you needed help."

"Oooh......" turned out to be a good guy.

Tsurumi's vigilance suddenly disappeared, and he scratched his face and said, "I'm lost and want to find someone to pick me up. He hadn't answered my phone all the time, so he was a little depressed. I'm not feeling sick. "

br />

Tsurumi Shu smiled: "Well, I guess too!" So I wasn't really mad at him. ”

Shuichi Akai hooked his lips and smiled: "So, do you need my help?"

Tsurumi said: "Huh?"

"Aren't you lost?" Akai Shuichi said, "My house is not far ahead, do you want me to drive you back?" That's not good, can you get on a stranger's car casually!

Tsurumi's vigilance was still there, and he shook his head like a shy DK.

"No, my brother will pick me up in a moment." Tsurumi thought for a moment, "By the way, sir, please tell me the specific address here. I was able to tell my brother clearly where I was. "

Akai Shuichi saw the boy's vigilance, but didn't think there was anything wrong. In the face of strangers, there is only a problem if you are not guarded.

If it weren't for the fact that the boy was talking to himself with the cat and the cat was too cute, Akai Shuichi wouldn't have asked a few more questions.

Rejected and forget it.

Shuichi Akai reported the location of the alley to Tsurumi Shu, and the two said goodbye. At parting, they did not exchange names.

Shuichi Akai was waiting for the boy to ask first. He speculated that according to the boy's polite character, he must have exchanged names with the people who helped him. But he made a mistake.

"It's going to rain, tell your brother to hurry up." Shuichi Akai reminded.

"Okay, thank you."

Tsurumi thanked him very politely and sent the man away with a gaze salute until the pink-haired man disappeared at the end of the road, and he did not have the idea of exchanging names.

It's just a kind-hearted person who met in Pingshui, and there is no need to hand over his name.

Tsurumi retracted his gaze and was about to continue talking to the cat, but the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated wildly.

He had a premonition in his heart and felt it out to see. The caller was Amuro.

Quickly press down and turn on.

Brother Tho...... As soon as Tsurumi Shu opened his lips, he was interrupted by the other head.

I'm sorry, Ah He, I just put my phone in my coat, and my coat is on the sofa again. I went to help fix the TV, but it was a bit noisy, so I didn't hear the phone ring.

Amuro apologized frantically: "Azuru, I'm sorry, I just saw your call prompt now."

A series of sorrys caught Tsurumi off guard.

He wasn't very angry,

Amuro's apology was sincere, and the reasons he gave were reasonable. What's more, there is not even ten minutes between his last phone call.

Tsurumi Shu was originally going to raise his eyebrows, regardless of saying a few angry words, but now the thorns in his body have softened.

Amuro is still apologizing.

Tsurumi paused and said softly: Okay, Brother Tou, I don't blame you.

Tsurumi vaguely heard a noisy voice on the other end:

"Who is Brother Amuro talking to?" It must be a girlfriend! The voices have become softer!"

"Don't eavesdrop on Brother Amuro's phone call, Motota, Ayumi, it's going to rain, I'm going home, have you finished your homework?

In addition to the child's voice, there are a few more distant voices that are not very audible.

…… You actually dismantled the TV, but luckily Mr. Amuro helped us fix the TV. Sister Xiaolan, I don't need him, I can fix it!

Little ghost, do you dare to say it?!

Whew——!

Toru Amuro: "Azuru......... Crane?"

Tsurumi Shu woke up from a trance and hurriedly responded: "Brother Tou, I'm here." - I always think that I have heard those voices somewhere, it is an illusion.

Amuro closed the door of the Maori detective agency, and the noise dropped by a few decibels. He apologized: Sorry, I'm a little noisy here.

Tsurumi nodded approvingly: "I heard it, no wonder you can't hear the bell."

"Ah...... Actually, it's also because I set it to vibrate yesterday and haven't turned back to ring mode yet. Amuro said, "I just checked the LINE, you're in Tokyo?

For some reason, Tsurumi always felt that the man's voice was a lot tighter.

Tsurumi has always been sensitive to emotions. He hesitated: ...... Don't you want me to come?

Toru Amuro immediately: "No, how could it be. I'm so glad that Ah He can come and visit me. That is, did the detective give you a holiday?

- Brother Tou didn't tell the truth completely.

He was happy to be here, but not 100 percent. Tsurumi pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "They gave me paid leave, and they didn't delay for a moment and sent me to Tokyo."

…

… Ah He, you wait, I'll talk to my colleague.

Amuro said hello to Azusa Momoto, explaining that he needed to leave work early, and only after getting permission did he pick up the phone again. He walked over to where he had parked.

"Is something wrong?" Amuro asked solemnly.

After seeing the cub protector with Xie Ye and others, he didn't think that the detective would send the kitten to Tokyo non-stop just to date him because Ah He missed him.

If it's not for this reason, it can only be related to business.

Toru Amuro's reasoning is correct.

Tsurumi quickly replied to him: "Port Mafia doesn't know how to do it, she knows my abilities and wants to arrest me. Mr. Dazai said that Mafia's hand in the port can't reach Tokyo, so let me come to you to avoid the limelight, so I will take a paid vacation.

Tsurumi's voice was low: ...... If Brother Tou doesn't want me to bother you, I can find another place to stay.

The young man's eyes glanced at the little flower cat on the side, and suddenly he was a little angry. He said angrily: "It's okay for me to squeeze with the stray cats in the alley, anyway, as long as the detective negotiates with the port Mafia, I can go back to Yokohama!" Until then, I slept on a cardboard box on the floor......

No nonsense! What a cardboard box to sleep on, no! Amuro interrupted him again, and the man's voice was stern for a moment, and then slowly returned to gentleness: "Azuru, I'm not unhappy."

Tsurumi hugged his knees and sniffed: "You just have it, I can hear it." The crying is heavy.

Amuro was dumbfounded.

He knew that Ah He was sensitive to emotions, but he didn't expect that it was just a momentary change in mood, and Ah He could also find out.

People who like it think that they are the most reassuring harbor, and when they encounter difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is to ask for help. I'm afraid no man will be unhappy.

What's more, he also misses Ah He......

However, Tokyo is indeed not within the reach of the current port of Mafia, but is shrouded in the shadow of another behemoth. A transnational criminal organization with a history spanning 100 years, and an organization whose members are almost all codenamed after alcohol, is entrenched in the shadow of Tokyo

Village.

Just as the port of Mafia could not interfere too much with Tokyo, Yokohama also had its own manager, the Sankimi conception. Over the years, the organization has not tried to develop its own power in Yokohama, but it has always failed.

Yokohama is an area that is beyond the reach of organizations.

Put Atsuru in Yokohama, at least you don't have to worry about the organization hurting him

。 And now, Atsuru is forced to come to Tokyo.

Toru Amuro's heart ached. How could his cat be forced to wander away?

Whether you come to Tokyo or not is one thing whether you will be targeted by the organization. Whether Tsurumi was persecuted or not, whether he would be unhappy is another matter.

"I'm really not unhappy. Ah He, don't we have an agreement, why don't I want you?" Amuro sat in the driver's seat and closed the door, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle.

Tsurumi remembered the agreement that he had pulled the hook: Really? There was still a cry in the words.

It's true. Amuro is very sincere, and he can't wait to show his sincerity directly to Tsurumi.

The man whispered, "Don't cry."

…… Good horn.

Tsurumi felt Amuro's sincerity and felt that he hadn't lied to himself. But just now, I was emotional, and I thought that I had been running around all day, just to surprise him.

And knowing that he was coming, Toru Amuro's first reaction was hesitation. Thinking of this, Tsurumi Shu was a little angry and aggrieved.

He didn't make a sound, and touched the little cat's fur for a while.

Amuro looked at the sky and said anxiously, "Ahe, where are you?" Tell me the address and I'll pick you up. ”

"I'm ...... in Rice Flower Town," Tsurumi told him the address he had asked for from the pink-haired man, and asked, "Where is Brother Toru taking me?" Would you like to open a room for me in a hotel or hostel?

He admits that there is indeed a gambling connotation in this sentence.

- Rice Flower Town, that dangerous man lives in Rice Flower Town!

Amuro became more and more anxious, but in the face of the young man's angry remarks, he was still able to calm down and answer patiently.

"Of course not going to the hotel. It's rare for Atsuru to come to Tokyo to find me, don't you want to live with me? Shall I take you home?" Amuro coaxed the cat softly, but on the contrary, he stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel quickly, ruthlessly, and accurately.

"I have a dog at home, named Harrow, and we can go for a walk together in the morning." "There's a guitar in the bedroom, hasn't Ah He heard me play the guitar? I can help you play the guitar and sleep it. ”

Amuro drove at the speed of the traffic police and drove the Mazda out of the car. Even so, he can still coax people with two hearts and minds without delay at all.

Tsurumi followed Amuro's words and imagined the future days of living together.,Emotions slowly stabilized.,Little by little, I was coaxed.。 He's always been very coaxing.

"Then I'm here

Waiting for you. Tsurumi said, "Brother Toh, come quickly." Well. Amuro said through the temperature, "I'm driving the car, and I'll be there right away.

The phone hung up.

Tsurumi turned his head and said to the little flower cat: "Brother Tou is coming to pick me up, thank you for accompanying me. Mimi, do you have any wishes?"

The little flower cat licked her fur, thought about it, and said: Meow meow meow! (Have you been taken in?) There was a girl who fed me for a few days, and she said she would seriously consider whether to raise me or not. I also want to be raised. )

That's right.

Tsurumi touched it again, and said seriously: "You will definitely meet someone who really wants to adopt you today, I promise."

"Me too." Tsurumi's voice slowly became lower: ...... Hopefully we can all meet that person.

The meow of the little flower cat echoed with the rumbling thunder.

Tsurumi raised his face, and large drops of rain fell on his cheeks.

It's really going to rain.
