Xia Zhi was woken up by the alarm clock more than half an hour before she usually got up. Because she was afraid of turning off the alarm clock and continuing to sleep, Xia Zhi put the alarm clock on the ground in front of the closet. As a result, Xia Zhi just heard the alarm clock.
He had already woken up, felt the increasingly louder ringtone, and quickly jumped out of the bed, pressed the alarm clock, and then immediately turned back and got into the quilt.
In the autumn of Japan, the morning is already very cold, not to mention it is the coldest morning of the day. Although Natsuki, who was nestled in the quilt, wanted to continue sleeping, he still had important things to do today, so he wrapped himself in the quilt and
He swallowed the clothes he had put away like a slime, and the slime quilt trembled as if some intense chemical reaction had occurred. Two minutes later, Xia Zhi finally put on his clothes slowly.
The quilt slime evolved into a slime spirit. This kind of monster that combines Chinese and Western things took a breath and stretched. Feeling a little chill, he reached out and put on the school uniform that was placed on the chair. Finally, he felt
Not so cold anymore.
After walking out of the bedroom and turning on the light in the living room, Xia Zhi began to prepare today's breakfast and lunch. It was still nothing special. The breakfast of bread and milk and the lunch of green pepper, shredded pork and rice were simple and pitiful, but there was nothing to be picky about.
After finishing breakfast and putting his lunch in his bag, Xia Zhi found the box of dumpling wrappers in the refrigerator.
Come to think of it, I forgot to return the lunch box... I took it with me when I went to school today. But this is not the most important task at the moment. If it is just to return the lunch box, of course there is no need to get up half an hour early. Xia Zhi
There are other purposes.
Walking out of the apartment and looking at the dim streets, Xia Zhi couldn't help but shudder. Whether it was the dark environment or the cold wind blowing from an unknown direction just now.
Walking on the street, Xia Zhi looked around, and sure enough there was no one, not even cats or dogs in sight.
Natsuki wakes up very early. She usually arrives at school almost an hour early. Shiraishi Rika is about the same, but slightly slower than Natsuki. It usually takes about ten minutes for Shiraishi Rika and Yamamoto Ryoko to chat.
Other people came to the school one after another, and everyone generally arrived at school about half an hour before class. Xia Zhi was always there forty minutes, if not an hour early.
And half an hour earlier than usual, Xia Zhi went out at six o'clock in the morning. On weekdays, this time is also the time when thieves and robbers get off work, so if you really meet someone, you have to be more careful.
But, it’s really cold...
Xia Zhi rubbed his hands and put them into the pockets of his clothes to keep warm and prevent the temperature from losing too quickly.
Accompanied by the cold wind, Xia Zhi tightened his tight clothes and walked towards the dim street. Just like in a horror game, all you can see is only about ten meters, and the sound of the cold wind blows,
The slight noise coming from the dark corner made Xia Zhi feel like he was walking in a haunted house.
Even if something suddenly jumped out somewhere, Xia Zhi probably wouldn't be surprised, because this is the most common plot in horror games. But this does not prevent him from being scared to death. Thinking about it, it seemed like that happened once before
, Tachibana Aya suddenly jumped out of the darkness, like a traditional female ghost, which scared Xia Zhi's heart and stopped for several seconds.
Fortunately, in such a cold weather, no one wanted to wander on the street. The atmosphere along the way was quite good, but there was nothing scary. Xia Zhi looked around with some fear and felt a little embarrassed.
There are no monsters or monsters in the world. Although I was scared to death by Tachibana Aya that day, it was because I was not prepared for such a thing at all - who else would have been suddenly jumped out of a dark corner like this?
This will happen even if you are scared... Oh, except Brother Jue.
Fortunately, nothing happened along the way. It seemed that even the kittens and puppies that could usually be seen did not merge with the shadows in the deep darkness and did not come out to be startled.
Just relying on the feeling he had for a long time, Xia Zhi walked to the door of the coffee shop before he knew it. He took out the key from his pocket and opened the door. The familiar sound of wind chimes also rang. He touched the side
After touching it, he found the light switch, and Xia Zhi pressed it. Although the wall lamp next to the front door of the counter was turned on, the light was enough for Xia Zhi to take action.
Because there is nothing particularly important to do, just put the dumpling wrappers in the coffee shop’s refrigerator in advance. Last night I decided to use the remaining ones to make dumplings for Xiaoyao’s birthday, so I might as well just make them first this morning.
Come over and put down the things you need, and take the lunch box Shiraishi Reika used to hold the dumpling wrappers back to her.
Originally, Xia Zhi went directly to the cafe after school in the afternoon instead of going home. After all, he had to take a slight detour, but if he just put such a big lunch box in his bag and went to school, the capacity of the bag was actually quite tight.
.
While Xia Zhi was putting dumpling wrappers in the refrigerator, he was thinking that he probably hadn't calculated the distance properly on this trip. In fact, if he went to school first, and then took a short detour after school in the afternoon and then went to the cafe, the distance he would have to walk was actually
It will be less. But you can't occupy other people's lunch boxes and not return them. Instead of waiting until the next time the other party comes over to play, you might as well take them yourself to show your sincerity.
After putting everything away and closing the refrigerator door, Xia Zhi put the lunch box back into his bag.
He patted the flour on his hands, so he was prepared in advance. The next step was to wait for the store manager to come to the store at noon and roll out all the flour he had bought into dumpling wrappers. Although he looked like he was
He seemed very reliable, but Xia Zhi didn't know whether he was reliable or not, so for the time being, he brought all the dumpling wrappers that were enough for the store manager's family.
Although they will definitely want Natsuki to eat with them, maybe Tachibana Aya and Maeda Mayumi who never finish their meal in the coffee shop will also stay. In that case, it may really be just enough to eat. But this
This coffee shop is not a serious coffee shop... at least there are cheeky players like Tachibana Aya who eats dinner here every day. She just hopes to have random dinner in the coffee shop every day.
By then, maybe even customers who just come for a cup of coffee will also ask for a bowl of dumplings.
It's Xiaoyao's birthday, do you think the store manager will give it to her...
So now I just hope that nothing happens to the dumpling wrappers made by the store manager himself.
After all, dumplings are not a particularly difficult food to make. As an expert at making many kinds of desserts, there shouldn't be any big problem. The upper limit is high and the lower limit is low.
Xia Zhi walked to the door, turned off the lights in the cafe, and then locked the door again.
Back to the silent and dark streets again...
Xia Zhi regretted going out too early. Even if it was only half an hour early, it only took about ten minutes to walk from home to the coffee shop, and it was still relatively cold in the morning. In order to keep herself warm, Xia Zhi
It's a bit faster. The structure is that now it feels like everything is done in the coffee shop in ten minutes. And now it takes another ten minutes to get to the apartment when I go back.
Do you want to go back to the apartment and have a cup of hot water or something...Xia Zhi thought about it while walking towards home.
Obviously, the idea of going home and drinking a cup of hot water is more tempting.
A few minutes later, Xia Zhi passed by the high-end apartment where Tachibana Aya lived. Looking at this luxurious building, all Xia Zhi thought of was "Ah, we can walk to the apartment in a few minutes." This is probably
The so-called salted fish mentality is at work. After all, it is something that has little to do with him. Even if he imagines himself living in it, it will only make Xia Zhi feel that he is still suitable to live in a public apartment.
If the rent of this high-end apartment is subtracted from the rent of the apartment where Xia Zhi lives, Xia Zhi can probably use the extra money to live very leisurely every month. It will be more leisurely than the life he lives now, probably
It's the kind of thing where as long as you don't spend money indiscriminately, you can live a decent life.
Tsk tsk, as expected, rich people, people with little money, and people with no money are people from three different worlds.
Xia Zhi didn't stop and continued walking forward. At this time, it was just getting light, but he could still more or less see the general appearance of the people walking on the street. And this was also difficult for those who had just come downstairs.
Tachibana Aya identified the conditions of people walking on the road.
"Xia Zhi?"
Tachibana Aya stood in front of the door and squinted her eyes for a closer look. After confirming that it was him, he quickly disappeared. Silently, like a killer without emotion.
He patted Xia Zhi on the shoulder and shouted in a loud voice: "Xia Zhi!"
"Fuck!"
Xia Zhi was startled and took two steps forward. He covered his heart with his right hand and turned his head to look. His frightened expression instantly turned into resentment.
"It's okay if you don't scare me all the time, okay? If I don't have a heart disease, I'll scare you out sooner or later."
"That doesn't matter." Tachibana Aya waved her hand nonchalantly.
"You have no problem with me..."
"Are you coming downstairs to wait for me?" Tachibana asked curiously, with a faint look of expectation on her face.
"How is that possible?" Xia Zhi calmed down: "I just went to the coffee shop to put something away."
"Uh-huh..." Tachibana Aya smacked her mouth in displeasure.
It's so simple and easy to understand, this woman.
"But I didn't expect that you usually get up so early?"
"Pretty much. I'm the first one to arrive at school in Yuhua Gaoli, probably."
"Oh, we're almost there then. Forget it, stop talking, I have to go to school."
Xia Zhi waved his hand and prepared to part ways with her.
"It's a rare encounter. Do you want to go to school together?"
"Are you out of your mind? Your school and mine are in two directions."
"It seems like this..." Tachibana Aya frowned and thought: "How about I go to your school first and then go back?"
"I beg you, please be normal..."
Natsuki simply rejected her proposal, and Tachibana Aya talked about other things with great interest.
After a slight delay, Xia Zhi's return to the apartment was completely ruined.
