Eating croquettes and drinking plum wine, Aoba quickly ate the croquettes, and the plum wine in the pot bottomed out.

Pour out the last bit of plum wine at the bottom of the pot, just enough for a small glass.

Aoba raised his head and drank the small glass of plum wine, and tasted it in his mouth for a moment before swallowing it.

"Boss, I'm ready to eat. Aoba said to Mr. Ono, who was sitting in a chair behind the counter.

"What? Uesugi is leaving?" asked Mr. Ono.

"Well, I'll go back first! Takahashi and Sato, if they come over in a while, remember to tell them for me, and say that I'm already back. Aoba nodded and said.

"Okay, I will. Mr. Ono nodded.

"Is Uesugi leaving, aren't you going to continue to drink a little?" Natsuko Mizuki, who was still drinking wine across from her, watched Aoba leaving, and suddenly began to stay.

"No, it's late, and I should go back. Aoba shook her head and declined.

"It's early, it's still late, why don't you continue to drink with your sisters? After a while, we can do something happy together!" said Natsuko Mizuki half-truthfully.

"Hey, Natsuko, what are you talking about!" her friend Matsushima Emi immediately said.

"Jiang Mei is really, what kind of innocence is she pretending to be at this time!" Mizuki Natsuko teased her friend.

"No, you guys keep drinking, I'll take my leave. It's a pity that Aoba wasn't tempted at all, just smiled, got up and opened the door of the store, and walked out.

Even though Mizuki Natsuko behind him called him, he didn't look back.

"Emi, has my charm really been reduced to this point?I can't even tempt men anymore?" Mizuki Natsuko looked at the door where Aoba had disappeared, her face full of shock.

"Well, that's not the reason!" Matsushima wanted to comfort her friend but didn't know what to say.

"Miss Mizuki. You don't have to think about it, he has a girlfriend! and he's a big beauty!"

"Hey, does he have a girlfriend?" Mizuki Natsuko's face was full of surprise, obviously she couldn't imagine that an ordinary-looking person like Aoba would have a beautiful girlfriend.

"Of course, I have a picture here, do you want to take a look?" said Ono and took out his phone.

"I'm going to see it, I'm going to see it. Natsuko Mizuki, who still didn't believe it, immediately stood up.

Even Matsushima Emi leaned over with curiosity.

So the manager Ono turned on his mobile phone and pulled up a photo of several people in the Ono Pavilion, including Aoba and Sanno Natsu, and the Ono store pointed to the Sanwang Natsu next to Aoba and said to the two, "That's it, her name is Sanno Natsu." ”

"Really. It's so beautiful! That Uesugi has such a beautiful girlfriend. Mizuki Natsuko's face was full of incredulity.

But at this time, this qiē, the leaving Aoba no longer knows.

Stepping on the reflection of the moonlight and leaving the quiet alley where Onodei was located, Aoba walked in the direction of the apartment.

There is no last train at this time, so the only way to go back is to take a taxi or walk back.

Of course, there are still a few options for Aoba, such as running back with his legs, I believe that the speed is definitely not slower than taking the train, and he can even fly back with Edgeworth.

However, Aoba still chose the slowest and most time-consuming way, which was to walk back.

At this midnight hour. Walking alone on a street that is bustling during the day, but at this time it is deserted, is actually a very fascinating thing, at least Aoba likes it.

It was supposed to be a noisy and lively place. Now it's quiet and peaceful, and unlike the Second New Tokyo, there is no killing or blood, and at most it's just a few nights of thugs.

That's it. Aoba walked in the direction of the apartment, constantly passing through the streets and alleys, sometimes quiet but brightly lit and with cars passing by from time to time. And sometimes it's in quiet alleys.

However, just as Aoba had just crossed an alley and came to another busy street, there was only traffic passing by, and there were few pedestrians on the street, but there were two figures standing in the shadows under a building, quietly facing each other.

Aoba glanced at the two of them curiously, just like the rest of the passers-by, who were scarce but still occasionally passed by.

And Aoba, like everyone else, didn't stop his steps, but continued to move forward, at most he glanced at the two people who looked a little strange.

It's just that unlike others who really regard these two people as weirdos, Aoba feels a familiar aura from the two of them, which is the breath of a superpower, the breath of a superpower from the second new Tokyo.

However, Aoba obviously doesn't want to care about other people's affairs, no matter why these two people are facing each other here, whether they want to fight or not, it has nothing to do with Aoba.

So Aoba just naturally passed by the two of them, ready to leave like this.

However, just as Aoba passed by the two of them, and when they were about to leave, one of the two sides of the confrontation stared at Aoba, still a little hesitant at first, and then his eyes became determined.

"Aoba-sama, are you Aoba-sama?" the man immediately shouted loudly, startling everyone who was confronting him.

"That's right, it's me, but I'm just passing by now, so just keep going and ignore me. Aoba waved behind him and continued to walk forward.

"Aoba-sama, I'm Ryosuke Shiratori! Do you remember me?"

That's right, this person is the same Shiratori Ryosuke who once strayed into the cute cat café, and then Aoba helped him exchange the huàn control of the metal superpower.

Aoba had already recognized him just now, but Aoba still had no intention of stopping, but now he was discovered by the other party, and it seemed to be entangled.

"Of course I do, but I'm not interested in your business right now, so don't let your trouble come to me. Aoba stopped a little helplessly.

Although he didn't turn around, Aoba already felt that the person who confronted Ryosuke Shiratori before had now turned his attention to himself, and this feeling of taking the blame for someone for no reason. But it's the one that Aoba hates the most.

"I'm sorry Aoba-sama, it's just a small conflict between us, I'll solve it myself, and I won't trouble you. It's just that it's rare to see you, I want to ask, can I go to you next time and ask for your help?" Shiratori Ryosuke naturally also noticed Aoba's impatience, and suddenly didn't dare to continue to approach, but he still dared to ask.

"Come as you want, but don't be too high-profile. Aoba thought for a moment and replied.

"Hi, thank you so much. Ryosuke Shiratori's voice was suddenly full of surprise.

"Alright. I'll go first, and I'll take care of myself and try not to make too much of a fuss. Aoba waved his hand at the end, didn't even turn his head, and left.

"Thank you, Aoba-sama, for your concern. Ryosuke Shiratori bowed deeply to Aoba's back, and didn't raise his head until Aoba was far away.

Not far away, the person who was confronting Ryosuke Shiratori before, but he didn't take this opportunity to do anything, but kept waiting for him.

It wasn't until Ryosuke Shiratori straightened up that the man was ready for battle again.

"Who was that Aoba-sama just now?" the man asked.

"Ahh That's my benefactor!" Ryosuke Shiratori said with a smile on his face.

"Oh, is it just a benefactor? look at the way you just looked, it doesn't look like it!" the man looked skeptical.

"Aoba-sama is indeed my benefactor! It's just that in addition to being a benefactor, Aoba-sama has also helped me a lot! Ryosuke Shiratori said with a smile.

"Hmph. Let's find out!" As the man spoke, the phantom of a long knife on his palm began to appear, and soon a long knife appeared in the man's palm.

And the long knife was still burning with red flames, leaving traces in the air as the long knife danced.

"Ahh The next moment, the metal fences on the sidewalks around him began to melt like liquid, and surged towards Ryosuke Shiratori's body, forming a metal shield around Ryosuke Shiratori in the blink of an eye.

And so the battle between the two sides began.

Although there are fewer people here at this moment. But it wasn't empty either, so soon the battle between the two was discovered by passers-by.

With the scream of a female voice, the quiet night suddenly became no longer quiet.

At the same time, this is happening from time to time in various parts of Tokyo, and it is clear that the influence of the Second New Tokyo on the present world is gradually deepening.

However, under the suppression of the relevant departments in Japan, this information has not been leaked out for the time being, but it is believed that the day of exposure is getting closer and closer.

What will happen then? No one knows.

Listening to the sound of battle coming from a long distance behind him and the screams of passers-by, Aoba shook his head silently, deciding to ignore this qiē and continue his relaxation time.

In this way, Aoba strolled all the way through the night, and finally returned to the apartment.

Pushing open the door of the apartment, the door of the first room next to the door had long been closed, and there was no sound, apparently Kako Kitagawa had slept.

Aoba gently returned to the door of his room, listening intently, he could hear the sound of a game coming from the opposite room, as well as the sound of Kamiyo Natsuki shouting when he played the game, and the sound of constantly beckoning the white ghost to give her defense and status.

That's right, this is Kamidai Natsuki pulling the white ghost to play the game again.

Aoba shook his head and didn't care about them, just pushed open the door and went back to his room to turn on the light, and then lay down on the bed relaxed.

"Well, the day is over, but I don't want to sleep for some reason!What should I do?" Aoba muttered to herself.

In the end, one stood up and rolled over from the bed, "Then watch the animation for a while, speaking of which, there have been various things recently.,It's time for me to make up for it!"

That's it.,Soon Aoba turned on the computer.,A burst of animated sounds came to mind in the room.。

No one knows when Aoba saw it that night, and sleep wasn't necessary for him anyway, but Aoba finally turned off the computer and went to sleep, until he was woken up in the early morning by the smell of the white ghost cooking in the kitchen.

When the white ghost finished cooking, Aoba also finished changing his clothes, and started the usual breakfast with the three of Kamiyo Natsuki, who were dragged from the bed by the white ghost.

Then Kamiyo Natsuki went back to her room to change her clothes and prepare to go to school, while Aoba had already left first.

"Yo Kako, good morning!" In the courtyard, Aoba greeted the caretaker Kitagawa Kako as usual.

"Aoba-kun, morning!" Kitagawa Kako said with a smile on her face, her face completely devoid of the fatigue she had last morning, and it seemed that she slept well last night.

"Kako's complexion is very good today!Looks like she had a good rest last night!" Aoba said with a smile as she looked Kitagawa Kako up and down.

"Yes! In order to replenish the lost energy quickly, I went to bed early last night, and sure enough, I am old, and my body is not good! I can't stand it after staying up late for a while. Kitagawa Kako sighed.

"How could it be! Kako is still very young. Aoba said with a smile.

"Aoba-kun doesn't need to compliment me, I still know that I'm getting old. Okay, Aoba-kun hurry up and go to school, don't be late for a while. Kitagawa Kako urged.

"Okay, then I'll go first. Aoba said and waved her hand to Kitagawa Kako and left the apartment.

As always, I came to the school by train and had a class that was the same every day.

And Aoba is also in a daze in class, waiting for the end of class, and then re-entering the class after a short period of class, waiting for the end of class again.

Only during the recess of each class, when Yuma Ishihara or Ito Yuren and Inoue Yasuji came to talk to him, could it be regarded as a slightly unexpected development.

And today, a few people talk about Aoba the most, of course, about catching ghosts, and then using real ghosts to open a haunted house.

"So, have you found a place where you can catch ghosts?" Aoba looked at the three people in front of him who were full of confidence, but he began to feel uneasy.

"Of course, Aoba, don't worry, we will definitely handle the ghost catching this time. Ishihara patted his chest.

"Can you tell me where you're going to catch ghosts?" asked Aoba frowning at the three of them.

"Of course it's a hospital! There's a hospital not far from here, and it's said that something weird happens near the morgue at night, so we're going to check it out. Ito said excitedly.

So Aoba was even more uneasy. (To be continued......)
