Tokyo: Let the wicked women pay the price!

Listening to Yui's impotent rage,

Fujino quickly dragged Saki back to the house to change her clothes, and then pulled her, who was still a little unresponsive, toward the tram stop.

As the cold wind swept through the road, Saki seemed to wake up a lot.

She was no longer as dazed as when she sat at the dining table, but she still didn't dare to look at Fujino. She could only look around and find a bird or a branch to look at.

Fujino just found it funny.

But he didn't ask any more questions, he just gently patted Saki's head:

"If Yui bullies you and you can't stand it anymore, you can tell me."

Fujino looked at Saki with a touch of pity, recalling their intimate moments together.

Does she actually like me?

Is it really that much harder for someone like Saki to kiss herself?

It seems I misunderstood before.

However, he still liked Saki very much, and was at least willing to stand up for her and teach Yui a lesson.

As for what methods were used, that was beyond Saki's knowledge.

Fujino didn't expect that the little girl's mind was filled with cherry blossom effects at that moment.

Saki's heart skipped a beat when she heard Fujino's resolute voice.

What was just laid out before him was almost the most unbearable scene of his life.

Even so, he would still ask himself directly if he was willing to help him get an explanation from Yui.

This unconditional trust and tenderness was an emotional shock that Saki had never experienced before.

Feeling the warm, large hand above her head, Saki squinted her eyes and unconsciously started purring.

so comfy.

That's so unfair, Fujino-san...

She linked her arm with Fujino's and rested her head on his shoulder.

Anyone who has been in a relationship knows that this posture is not conducive to walking, especially since Fujino is quite tall, while Saki is petite and cute.

Fujino looked at Saki with a hint of helplessness.

Is it because playing duo queue with Yui is too difficult?

The little girl looks like her bones have been removed, and she's so limp that she has no support.

Hey! I'm going to be late for work!

He took a deep breath, picked up Saki horizontally, and ran towards the tram station.

"Eh...Eh!! Eh!! Fujino-san...Put me...Put me down!"

Saki felt a sudden sense of weightlessness and instinctively hugged Fujino's neck tightly, while shouting for him to put her down.

"Come on, at this pace, we'll be clocking out of get off work by the time we get to the hospital."

Fujino's tone was blunt and even somewhat harsh.

But to Saki, it sounded like a mix of concern and teasing.

Saki smiled, her eyes narrowing, tightened her grip on his arm, and nestled her cheek comfortably against Fujino's neck, saying repeatedly, "Hi! Hi!"

"Then I'll have to trouble Fujino-san~"

......

On the tram, Saki leaned against Fujino's shoulder and dozed off.

It's said to be a continuous route, but it's actually only a few stops away.

Fujino remained stiff, afraid to move lest he wake the still unconscious Saki.

It seems she really didn't get much sleep yesterday...

Fujino pursed his lips, thinking to himself, "These two little girls are really energetic."

Even as they walked toward the East University, Saki was not fully awake and was still leaning on Fujino.

But once they arrived at his workplace, Fujino couldn't let her stay any longer; it would have a bad influence.

He gently patted Saki's face: "We're at work!"

Saki clenched her fists, pouted, and gently rubbed her eyes, just like a hamster.

"Hurry up and go, I'm going to check on the patients."

Fujino knew he couldn't give her any room to cheat, so he headed straight for the elevator.

Saki realized what was happening, yawned, and headed towards the stairs.

But the way she looked at Fujino was now filled with tenderness.

Thank you, Fujino-san.

......

The corridor of a psychiatric ward.

Fujino nodded slightly as he listened to the constant calls of "senior" and joined the crowd.

He hesitated for a moment, then stood behind Koki Takanashi.

Koki turned her head and lowered her voice: "Dog-Shu-Kin-sama, you stand in front..."

Fujino gently shook his head: "Don't make it so obvious."

Yes, although both are specialists in medicine, Mitsuki Takanashi is still considered a senior.

This is a Japanese medical institution, where the most important thing is the hierarchy between senior and junior doctors, and seniority is the determining factor.

At the very least, one should not be too disrespectful to one's seniors in public.

How Mitsuki-senpai treated him in Fujino's private office is another matter entirely.

Professor Kasai stepped out of the professor's private elevator as usual.

Today, however, he appeared with two assistant professors.

Takanashi Riki and Professor Kobe.

This was the first time that Assistant Professor Takanashi had participated in the morning procession of the daimyo since joining the medical department, which is why she received preferential treatment and was able to ride in the same elevator as the professor.

All of this was completely under her control, if Fujino hadn't been there.

Her gaze lingered for a few seconds when it fell on Fujino, then immediately turned away.

After all, she had just run into Fujino in Shinjuku over the weekend, which had caused a bit of an awkward situation...

Her gaze wasn't exactly evasive, but she knew that her heart skipped a beat when she saw Fujino.

Professor Kasai walked at the front with a smile, looking at each ward one by one.

He was very happy.

The doctor trained Fujino, a newly promoted specialist, and also recruited Assistant Professor Takanashi Tatsuki, who had returned from America, greatly expanding the team.

Even as the meeting ended, his smile lingered on his face. He patted Fujino on the shoulder and said, "Fujino-kun, Ritsuki said she wants you to be her teaching assistant. I might have to trouble you for a while."

"Hmm?...I understand, Professor!"

"Hehe, you young people can chat amongst yourselves..."

As Professor Kasai walked away, Fujino fell into deep thought.

Attending classes is a normal thing, especially for doctors like them who work at a university-affiliated hospital.

Assistant professors often need to teach at universities, explaining the latest clinical applications of technology or special cases.

The same applies to psychiatry.

But this person's choice made him feel very uneasy.

Takanashi Riki, though others may not know, she herself should be well aware of it.

Her relationship with Fujino was essentially one of mortal enmity.

It was already destined, at least when she made up her mind to stop Fujino from taking the specialized medical exam.

So now, why did she choose me to be her teaching assistant and help her with her classes?

Are you kidding me?

Moreover, she chose herself over her own younger sister, Koki Takanashi, who was also a medical specialist...

Something just doesn't look right.

Fujino thought that this woman was probably trying to cause some trouble and make him, the teaching assistant, take the blame.

But since it was something the professor had personally instructed him to do, he had no way to refuse.

Sigh—

Fujino sighed; all he could do was deal with it as it came.

He glanced at the Takanashi sisters as they entered the elevator and walked toward the examination room.

Sitting down in the familiar consultation room, he took out his phone and spoke with Inspector Yamagami about the profile of Himegami Ayame that he had obtained from Hanako.

26-year-old young woman, lawyer.

He sounds like an elite.

knock knock --

"That's all for now, I'm not talking to you anymore."

"Please come in~"

Fujino hung up the phone, a smile on his face, ready to face his first patient of the day.

He was also the first patient he treated after being promoted to a specialist.

His smile quickly froze.

He's an old acquaintance.

Kasuga Shinya.
