On the sofa, after listening to Karasawa's explanation of the outcome of the case, Ayako stood up and stretched herself with satisfaction.
"Do you drink water?" Ayako looked at Karasawa and asked.
"Help me get a bottle of milk." Tangze thought for a while and added: "I want chocolate flavor."
After hearing this, Ayako took out a bag of milk from the nearby storage cabinet and handed it to Karasawa, and then asked casually: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what happened to the two cats and three kittens?"
"Adopted by the Shunsaka brothers and sisters."
Tang Ze smiled and said: "My daughter adopted the tabby cat, and my son adopted the tiger cat.
As for the three kittens, they were also adopted by my daughter."
"It's considered complete." Ayako said with a smile.
"Okay, that's enough chatting. It's time for us to discuss our itinerary."
Karasawa hugged Ayako and smiled and said: "After this case is solved, I will have nothing to do in the future. When I give an explanation to Yuesui tomorrow, we can prepare to go to the country."
"Really?" Ayako said happily after hearing this: "That's great. My friend Sophie heard that I was coming and has been looking forward to it every day."
"Then, we'll have to ask your friend to be our guide." Tang Ze said with a smile.
"No problem, she has even helped us figure out the travel plan." Ayako said with a smile.
"It saves me trouble if you are so considerate." Tangze raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't have to worry about making strategies this time."
"You can worry less." Ayako looked at the time and said, "It's still early, why don't we go for a walk."
"Okay." Tang Ze stood up and said, "The weather at this time is very comfortable for a walk."
The two held hands and went out, feeling the cool evening breeze blowing on their bodies, making them feel refreshed.
The two of them walked all the way to a nearby park. There were more and more people around them, but most of them were housewives with their children. There were far fewer young couples like Karasawa and the others.
The two of them walked around aimlessly for a few times. Feeling a little bored and having finished eating, they went straight home.
This is actually the norm for walking at night, wandering around aimlessly for a few times, getting bored and then returning home soon.
After washing up, since they weren't feeling sleepy yet, the two of them simply dug out their suitcases and prepared to bring something with them.
Clothes and shoes are excluded directly. For them, these can be purchased directly locally. Of course, underwear and the like are still indispensable. After all, close-fitting clothing must ensure comfort.
In addition, you can also bring some hats and sunglasses that you like, followed by a camera and some snacks.
Of course, the most important thing is to bring souvenirs to Ayako’s friend Sophie. After all, they are going to Neon, so they still need to bring something unique.
However, since all the suggestions given by Karasawa were rejected by Ayako, he had no choice but to act as a tool and help Ayako record the souvenirs he wanted to buy, and then accompany Ayako to do the shopping tomorrow afternoon.
Early the next morning, Karasawa picked a box of good black tea from home and took it to Kesouyan's office.
After explaining his purpose, Karasawa placed the black tea in front of Koshizu Nanatsuki, who looked unhappy: "This is a thank you gift for you, the best black tea from the country of Yu."
"Are you going to dismiss me with just this can of black tea?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki unceremoniously put the black tea into his office drawer.
"I'll definitely bring you specialties when I come back." Tang Ze smiled flatteringly: "Then I'll leave the scientific search and research to you during my stay."
"Even if I say I won't do it, you will definitely leave, right?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki rolled his eyes and said, "So..."
"So?" Tangze asked.
"I have to add a gift." Koshimizu Nanatsuki raised his chin and said, "You can't buy me off with this."
"Tell me what you want me to bring you." Tang Ze smiled.
"You have already brought me the black tea." Koshizui Nanatsuki heard this and said in a deep voice, "Let me think about other specialties..."
"The famous ones are whiskey and sherry, right?" Karasawa said with a smile, "Otherwise, they are handmade pipes and the like."
"Who would want these things?"
Koshimi Nanatsuki complained speechlessly: "These are things only men like.
You should think about it sincerely!"
"By the way, let me give you a set of tableware." Tang Ze thought with a flash of inspiration: "The silverware of the country of Yu is also quite famous. How about it? Is that okay?"
"Okay." Koshimizu Nanatsuki nodded reluctantly: "Then I will reluctantly help you take care of your "home" for a few days."
"Don't get the advantage and behave well."
Karasawa became addicted to watching Nanatsuki Koshizu acting, and couldn't help complaining: "I'm gone, you will be more casual at work, and no one can control you.
I've pretty much handled the work I did some time ago, and the rest is just daily operations, which you still don't have at your fingertips.
And since I’m gone, if there’s a case during the period, you can intervene at any time, right?”
"Hehe." Koshizui Nanatsuki heard Karasawa's words and laughed without any embarrassment.
Hearing what Karasawa said, Koshisui Nanatsuki also knew that this was Karasawa's "bottom line", and then he stopped making things difficult for the other party, "You can just go and leave it to me. You can rest assured."
"Contact me if you have anything." Hearing this, Karasawa turned to Koshizui Nanatsuki and waved to him: "I'll leave first and ask for leave."
After all, he is the "head of the family" who is in charge of such a large business as Kesouyan. Tang Ze has to say hello to his superiors when he wants to take a vacation.
Because he handles so many cases, his superiors usually don't grant him leave, so Tangze got the leave smoothly.
Of course, his leave card was still useless. After all, he had just finished handling a case and had to wait for two days anyway. Tang Ze planned to wait until he went to the country of Yu to use it.
Even though he was going abroad, he still had to guard against side plots. Karasawa didn't want to go on vacation and encounter a murder case. That would be too bad.
Moreover, the country of Yu is not his territory, and any case will be troublesome, so he should avoid it if he can.
After asking for leave, Karasawa went directly to the company downstairs to pick up Ayako. After that, the two of them went to stores to buy souvenirs according to the list they made yesterday.
After shopping until noon, there were still some things left to buy. Tang Ze and the others went to deal with the Five Zang Temple first, and then slowly finished it.
After packing their luggage, the two of them checked it directly to Kyoto. Although they were busy with things to set off for the country, they did not forget that they still had a trip to Kyoto to go.
Of course, I just don’t know whether the protagonist is ready for this much-anticipated trip to Kyoto.
But compared to Karasawa and the two who fell asleep soundly after nightfall, Hattori Heiji was tossing and turning in bed tonight, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
A week ago, under the pressure of Karasawa, Hattori Heiji had to make the decision to confess.
At that time, he thought that a week as a buffer would be enough for him to be mentally prepared, but he found that he was wrong.
Because no matter how much he prepared mentally and rehearsed his confession plan, he still felt panicked the night before the plan came.
But he knew clearly in his mind that if he confessed, he needed to keep a clear head, so the first thing he had to do at the moment was sleep.
But this kind of thing cannot be suppressed by reason. Hattori Heiji had no choice but to start counting sheep, but in the end it was useless.
Crazy Hattori Heiji got up and drank a glass of water. He lay down again and didn't think about anything, but the anxiety in his heart and the flashing preview of the confession kept replaying in his mind.
But this time Hattori Heiji didn't care anymore, but just closed his eyes tightly, and after an unknown amount of time, he finally fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Hattori Heiji, who was woken up by his mother, hurriedly ate breakfast and then rushed to Toyama's house to meet Kazuha.
"It's coming too late!" Kazuha looked at Hattori Heiji with his hands on his hips dissatisfied and said, "If you're a little later, the train will be late."
"Sorry sorry."
Hattori Heiji saw that Kazuha's expression was a little unnatural, and he didn't even bother to refute the other party's accusations. If it were normal, he would have to say nothing to the other party unconvinced.
But today, Hattori Heiji's attitude softened unconsciously: "I went to bed a little late last night and got up late in the morning."
"Listening to what you said, it sounds like you are really not in high spirits."
Originally, Kazuha had no intention of blaming Hattori Heiji. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look into the other person's eyes: "They are all bloodshot. Let's take a rest after getting in the car later."
"Ah yes." Feeling the gaze of the other party, Hattori Heiji felt that his ears were a little feverish.
Fortunately, his skin is relatively dark, so there is a little bit of redness, but it doesn't look too obvious.
"We'd better leave quickly."
Avoiding the other party's incoming gaze, Hattori Heiji quickly changed the subject and said: "Didn't you say that time is a little tight?"
"Ah, yes, let's go, let's go!" Hearing Hattori Heiji's words, Kazuha quickly took Hattori Heiji's hand and ran towards Jitu Station.
Although there were not many such contacts in the past, on this special day today, feeling the catkins in his hands, Hattori Heiji's heart swayed, and he felt waves in his heart again.
However, *** and Ye didn't notice Hattori Heiji's expression, and pulled each other and hurriedly squeezed into the station.
Yes, it is "crowded". Although today is a Saturday holiday and there are no office workers, there are even more people on the holiday.
Although they are not so close to each other that they can't find their clothes, they are still very close to each other.
The two of them were not surprised by such a scene. Soon Kazuha pulled Hattori Heiji to stand in the corner of the carriage, and Hattori Heiji protected Kazuha in the corner as usual.
But when he lowered his head to look at Kazuye, he suddenly realized that the two people were so close that he could even touch each other's face when he lowered his head.
Before Hattori Heiji could feel embarrassed, the subway station stopped again, but the previous crowding did not ease. Instead, it became even more crowded as a wave of passengers boarded the train.
Soon the space where the two of them were standing was compressed again, and Kazuha's face was even directly pressed against Hattori Heiji's chest.
This incident made Hattori Heiji's heart almost explode. He never thought that such a thing would happen in the early stage of the confession.
This caused the brain that was already forced to calm down to start overloading again.
On the side, He Ye, who was as usual, could not help but feel a blush on his fair face as he felt his chest so close.
Fortunately, the carriage was so crowded that everyone's faces were red, so no one noticed what the little girl was thinking.
Two boys and girls who loved each other hugged each other in the corner of the carriage, feeling each other's breathing and heartbeat.
In this situation, both of them seemed to have lost their ability to think, and just quietly enjoyed the ambiguous atmosphere at the moment.
It seemed like a long time had passed, and it seemed that only a moment had passed. The familiar name of the station reached the ears of the two of them. The young man and woman with their own thoughts separated in a panic and followed the flow of people outside.
After jogging to the station and waiting for a short time, the train slowly entered the station from a distance. After the two found their seats, they both breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
I was quite tired standing on the subway before and jogging into the station. Now I naturally feel relaxed when I sit down.
And as he felt the train slowly moving forward, Hattori Heiji felt as if there was a progress bar in front of him that was constantly moving forward, telling him that the time to confess was coming soon.
At this moment, Hattori Heiji, who was used to all kinds of murder cases and critical situations, suddenly realized that his proud calmness could not help him improve his concentration at this moment.
Even he himself realized for the first time that he had such a nervous side.
The heart in my chest is still beating, but every time it brings a throbbing. It is not fear and fear, but expectation and tension for the future.
But while Hattori Heiji was in a daze, Kazuha was wondering what the boy next to him was thinking.
Seeing the other person's dazed look, Kazuye thought he was tired, so he waved his hand in front of Hattori Heiji, and after he came back to his senses, he said:
"Heiji, if you are sleepy, take a nap first. If you are still so lackluster when you get to Kyoto, you will be very tired while playing."
"Oh ok"
Hearing Kazuha's words, Hattori Heiji, who suddenly came back to his senses, was nervous for a moment, then realized that he was in trouble, and calmed down immediately.
Pretending to be sleepy, he yawned to cover up his recent gaffe. After speaking to Kazuha, Hattori Heiji flattened his seat, closed his eyes and began to rest.
He didn't know whether it was because he was really tired, or whether having Kazuha by his side brought peace to his heart. It didn't take long for him to feel sleepy, and Hattori Heiji actually fell asleep.
On the side, Kazuha looked at Hattori Heiji's sleeping face, thinking of the heartbeat he felt on the subway before, and his cheeks turned red.
But she quickly shook her head to get rid of the picture, and stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze.
But not long after, He Ye also felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
And her head unconsciously tilted towards someone's shoulder.
