Nakamori Akina lowered her head and bit her lips.

Originally, in this ordinary friendship, she put herself on the passive side and silently accepted Narita Katsu's care and kindness. As a result, in the moment just now, she took an unprecedented step. Pulling each other like this

Conversations like this were their usual tactic of back and forth, and Nakamori Akina was used to it. She always let Narita Masaru tease her silently, and then panted and figured out how to overpower him.

But tonight, although the emotions between the two of them were the same as usual, not intense, they were like the cup of "fake wine" that was spiked with alcohol and had an intoxicating flavor.

Narita Sheng's seemingly absurd and unreasonable request was like a heavy axe. He handed it into her hands and let her personally shatter all her imagination about him.

However, such an impact still messed up her mind and made her lose her composure. It also caused her to feel scared and confused when cleaning up this messy imagination. There were no words or demonstrations, like a sudden storm.

, just this simple step by Nakamori Akina made the two people tightly entwined.

"I said this to scare you," Narita Katsuya felt that he was too presumptuous just now and seemed to be teasing Akina Nakamori, but his original intention was not that, so he explained: "Speaking of it, you probably won't believe it.

, I want to borrow your earrings and find the ring."

Nakamori Akina was speechless, staring straight at him, as if she must give him an explanation, otherwise she would think that she had met a strange young man. Her mood was complicated, and she regretted her actions. Even if she had to give an explanation

, it should be changed to a tactful way. This straightforward approach just exposes my willfulness and rudeness as a young woman who is not yet an adult.

In other words, the reason why I feel so regretful now is because I care too much about Narita Masaru.

"Guests often lose things, and I have been worrying about how to find them for a long time. Then by chance, I adopted a retired police dog, and it really helped a lot."

"Police dog? Is it like searching a prisoner?"

Nakamori Akina's cautious look fell into Narita Katsu's eyes. At this time, he felt a subtle excitement about his recklessness just now, and some indescribable feeling of drunkenness. "Yes, that's why I proposed such a strange thing to you."

Request."

Hearing these words, Nakamori Akina's wrinkled brows relaxed and she felt relieved.

She felt a little ashamed of her reaction, and she also confirmed one thing from it. It was precisely because she expected to be understood so much that she cared so much about who Narita Masaru was, so much so that she inadvertently raised her so-called

"Dating standards".

However, such thoughts made her feel uneasy and her chest was blocked by something. If she speculated and evaluated a person so casually, she would lose her sincere character, and in the end, she would not make true friends.

First of all, it is a false proposition to suspect that Narita Masaru is a young man with strange behavior.

If it weren't for her trust in herself, Narita Katsu would not have come up with such a seemingly unreasonable method. Although she didn't get along with him much, she knew this young man's behavior.

Nakamori Akina suddenly discovered that this was the first time she had had such an idea that was so annoying to her. Before it started to grow and develop, she made up her mind to strangle it in the cradle. She should apologize to him. Thinking like this, for

I find it strange that my mood changes so much.

But although the words came to her lips quickly, she could not say any clichéd words of apology. After much hesitation, she just bowed one after another, which was even more exaggerated than the standard ninety degrees.

"Please, that ring is very important to me," Nakamori Akina decisively took off a pair of earrings and handed them to Narita Masaru's palm. Her girlish melancholy was fleeting.

"That's too polite." Narita Masaru looked at the two sparkling pearl earrings in his hands. He didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he just smiled. He never thought that Nakamori Akina would lend him both earrings.

This made him feel that he had an inexplicable responsibility.

It’s like I have Nakamori Akina’s heavy trust.

"Well, how should I contact you?"

Hearing this, Narita Sheng searched his pocket, took out a ballpoint pen, and handed it to Nakamori Akina, "Sorry, I didn't bring my business card. Can I write down your pager number on my hand?"

"I am the one who should be sorry..."

"Nakamori-san," Narita Masaru realized that the two of them had been apologizing endlessly since they met, so he half-joked, "If we continue to apologize, I'm afraid we won't have to wait until next year."

Nakamori Akina was amused. She was holding a pen and writing on Narita Masaru's hand. With this smile, the handwriting became crooked, so that the tail of the number 5 accidentally touched Narita Masaru's middle finger. She looked at and

There is no difference between primary school students’ graffiti.

What was finally presented did not look like a number, but more like a string of Morse code that was difficult to decipher.

………

Although Shotaro is in a daze every day, he rarely disappoints Narita Masaru when he starts his job. After the store closes, one person and one dog start to move, and the air is mixed with the smells of different people, thinking

It is also a big challenge for "Mr. Former Police Dog" to accurately find out the purpose.

But this time, Narita Katsu didn't think Shotaro could find the guests' lost items as accurately and quickly as usual. Usually what he was looking for was pagers, purses and the like, but tonight's target was a small ring.

To be honest, there is a high possibility that someone else will follow you.

Narita Katsu touched the earrings placed in the inner pocket of his coat, and it was difficult to feel at ease. What troubled him was that the strange words Tu said to Nakamori Akina in a moment of joy and recklessness had caused a lot of trouble to both of them.

What should I do with this pair of earrings?

It's a bit too much to carry around with you, but it's not appropriate to just put it in a drawer in the office. Somehow, Narita Masaru has been particularly stubborn recently when facing Akina Nakamori, and he can't calm down when it comes to things related to her.

Qi. As far as this pair of earrings is concerned, whether this unaccommodating nature is innate or whether it was suddenly exposed recently, Narita Sheng himself can't figure it out. In the end, he can only attribute the reason to the original owner.

At this time, Shotaro shouted at the bar, attracting his attention, so he walked over, patted Shotaro's head, and finally found the target. This ruby ​​ring with purple-red pearls quietly

Lying in the goblet, I don’t know what happened in the short few hours of “missing”.

Today’s young people really know how to play

Narita Sheng shook his head, complained silently, poured the ring out of the wine glass, and wiped it clean with the hand towel in his arms.

The pursuit of new trends is a symbol of every generation of young people. From the weird and exaggerated bosozoku in the 1970s to the dancing bamboo clan in the 1980s, these young people will come up with new tricks every few years, but the only eternal thing in the universe is

What remains unchanged is what is changing.

The study of divination in the West has become very popular recently. Overnight, tarot card fortune-telling shops have taken over the streets and alleys. In Shinjuku and Shibuya, where young people gather, at night, the entrances of many bars are filled with all kinds of fortune-telling shops.

On the street stalls, all kinds of mysterious numerology theories emerge one after another. This wind of divination has now naturally reached Narita Masaru.

It is said that in ancient Western legends, a ring binds a person's soul. If someone is willing to give his soul to his lover, he will throw the ring into a wine glass, and the person who drinks the glass of wine will get that person's soul.

Soul.

Once the legend was broadcast on the TV station, it became very popular among young people. Now it has become the most popular way for men and women to court each other.

It’s just that it’s really frivolous and offensive to pick up this ring casually and drink this glass of wine without even knowing who the owner is.

Not only did it make the owner anxious, it also caused trouble for the person who found the ring.

Narita Katsu saw some stubborn stains and newly filled scars, and shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he could not return the ring in time. He just gave it to Nakamori Akina. He really didn't have such a thick skin. Before that, he had also
