Tokyo Love Story

Probably? "Tsugumi Seina was quiet for a while, then yawned and answered with an increasingly unclear voice, "You should know that I have basically never been late for the appointments we have made. I can definitely keep this record. I'll do the work, haha, don't worry!"

Hoshino Ai fell silent.

Forget it, just believe it first.

She thought so.

Thanks to Oyster, Oyster, the Jade-faced Scholar, Gray Starlight, Liangliangi, and Xiziliang for their monthly tickets, and Ziwei Jushi for his rewards. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Happy Saturday everyone.

Chapter 83 The Brave Princess and the Dragon [3K2]

At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, in front of Suigetsu Izakaya.

Hoshino Ai, who changed into casual clothes, looked at her best friend who was in high spirits beside her, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes.

Fifteen minutes ago, Tsuchiya Seina confidently expressed on Line that she would go to bed early tonight. However, considering her current mental state, it would be difficult for her to go to bed early.

It’s always like this after staying up late. I either force myself to hold on to the sleepiness until I can rest at night, or I let the sleepiness wash over me, letting wave after wave of sleepiness engulf my consciousness. I then wake up in the evening, and then all the sleepiness is gone.

At this time, the options become the same as the two faced last night. One is to force yourself to rest, and the other is to stay up another night. Some people will choose the latter, and then it will be another cycle.

The door curtain was opened and two people walked in one after the other.

After saying hello to the owner of the izakaya, led by the owner's daughter, Tsugumi Serina and Hoshino Ai went up to the second floor of the izakaya to the small private room they often went to.

"Sister Hoshino, is the food still the same as before?"

Standing at the door of the private room, the boss's daughter was holding the order book. She had a friendly smile on her energetic face, and the two dimples on both sides of her mouth were particularly cute.

Tsugumi Rina and Hoshino Ai are regular customers here, almost every order is made by Hoshino Ai, and the food is not bad. When ordering, Hoshino Ai said the most words are "old man look'.

Over time, she developed a similar habit of asking questions.

"The food should be the same as usual. As for the wine, well..." Hoshino Ai raised her eyebrows and looked at Tsugumi Seina, with some suspicion in her eyes, "You really don't want to drink?"

"No." Tsugumi Seina shook her head, her position was quite firm. That incident was a great lesson for her. Besides, she didn't want to see the embarrassment on Kitagawa Che's face after seeing her drunk. She thought for a moment and added, "If I get drunk, who will take you home?"

"That's right." Hoshino Ai naturally understood what she meant. She smiled, turned her eyebrows away, and looked at the boss's daughter, saying, "You decide." "Here, only one-third of the usual amount of wine. I can't finish it if I have more."

"Okay." The boss's daughter nodded, picked up a pen and quickly wrote down the order in the order book, then bowed slightly and walked out the door, "Please wait a moment, the food will be served soon."

The sliding door was closed, and only Tsugumi Serina and Hoshino Ai were left in the private room.

After a relaxing breath, Hoshino Ai took the initiative to open the conversation. She raised her eyebrows, her eyes fell on Tsugumi Seina's face, and asked curiously, "You said before that it might be delayed for a while. Did you get up late, or?"

"I went to see Kitagawa Tetsu and Kitaen Rin." Tsugumi Seirinai met Hoshino Ai's puzzled look and explained, "Kitaen Rin is what you call his 'girlfriend'. In fact, she is also my student."

Tsugumi Seina leaned back slightly, supported her body with her hands on both sides, squinted her eyes, and looked at the ceiling light in the private room. The soft light poured down and sprinkled on her beautiful face.

"Oh." Hoshino Ai nodded thoughtfully and asked with interest, "Are they a couple?"

"At the moment, no. But the atmosphere between the two of them does seem to be in a situation." Rina Tsugumi showed an expression of "you understand", "I just don't know what the window paper between them is. The time will break."

"Wow, is this really a relationship more than just friends?"

Hoshino Ai's voice inevitably rose a few pitches, and she suddenly became interested.

Privately, she quite liked listening to Tsugumi Serina talk about the things happening between students at Shirakawa High School.

On the one hand, such things can really make people relax, without the complicated exchange of interests and intrigues in the adult society. On the other hand, it can be regarded as a side effect of fulfilling a wish she once had. As a student in a girls' high school, she did not have such an unforgettable high school romance.

"You forgot to add a lover who is not yet full." Makoto Tsugumi pouted and corrected Hoshino Ai, "But I personally think it should be soon."

"Because you're in trouble together?" Hoshino Ai happily took up the conversation, "After all, morning dramas are filmed like this."

"Ai, watch less morning dramas." Tsugumi Seina rolled her eyes at her and changed the subject, "If I must say, your mention of 'sharing hardships' is more like a turning point, or a catalyst. But we are not the parties involved in emotional matters, so who knows what will happen after all."

"Too."

Hoshino Ai withdrew her gaze.

"But, speaking of which." Tsugumi Seina raised her eyebrows and looked at her somewhat ambiguously, "Where is that colleague who pursued you that you mentioned before? Is he still pursuing you?"

"I've made it clear, I'm not interested in him." Hoshino Ai pursed her lips, "He's not my type."

"I see, not handsome enough."

Tsugumi Seina smiled.

Hearing this, Hoshino Ai glared at her best friend and asked, "Am I so superficial?"

"Hmm..." Tsugumi Seirinara stretched out her tone, pretending to frown and think. She raised her eyes and looked at the profile of Hoshino Ai, and asked tentatively, "Should, maybe, probably, it seems, yes?"

"Come on." Hoshino Ai was amused by Tsuchigumi Serina and rolled her eyes at him coquettishly before changing the subject. "By the way, is your family still talking about blind dates?"

"No, it's just a temporary relief." Tsugumi Seina laughed self-deprecatingly, "Didn't I tell you that the shoulder throw has already made me famous."

Tsugumi Makina thought about it and gave an example, "In an RPG game, I'm one of those NPCs that comes with a prefix. Others might be called the second generation, which sounds really intimidating, but I can probably only be called the Demon King of Over-the-shoulder Throwing, the Indestructible Tsugumi Makina, or something like that."

"Why do I feel that your title is even more impressive? If it were an RPG, it would be at the level of a boss." Hoshino pursed his lips and sighed helplessly, "But I'm talking to you seriously."

"I'm being serious."

Tsugumi Seina blinked, and there was no hint of joking in those beautiful and lively eyes.

"I'll take that as the truth." Hoshino Ai rested her elbows on the table and propped up her chin. "Rina, you're not ugly. Besides, there were a lot of boys chasing you when you were in college."

"It's not the same as it was back then." Tsugumi Seina shook her head. "It's different now than it was in the student days. The men and women in that circle are all very careful about their reputations and love to save face. Some people have already lost face, so others will definitely stay away." She paused, "But for me, it's a good thing."

"What you said is true. Times have changed." Hoshino Ai raised an eyebrow. "Just like in the current RPG games, the princess doesn't have to be powerless, and the prince doesn't have to be really brave and unparalleled. Even the dragon can be the princess's subordinate, just for the princess to win the heart of the prince she has a crush on for a long time."

After she finished speaking, Tsugumi Seirina smiled but didn't say anything.

"But then again, this incident was widely reported at the time. What about the other person at the center of the incident?" A hint of curiosity flashed across Hoshino Ai's brown eyes. "The rumor I heard is that the reason you took action was to protect the other man at the center of the incident."

"Does this count as a beauty saving a hero?" The gossipy look in Hoshino Ai's eyes grew stronger. She thought for a moment and then announced in a low voice like a narrator in a turn-based game, "The princess used a shoulder throw on the soldier. Soldier, the prince's favorability +10."

What kind of turn-based battle game is this?

Tsugumi Seina rolled her eyes coquettishly, and had a deeper understanding of her best friend's gossiping mind. Fortunately, she had never been in a relationship so far, otherwise, it would probably be a game between the two groups of people around the man and the woman.

"There aren't as many romantic plots as you imagine." Tsugumi Seina sighed and explained, "It's just some bad things caused by alcohol."

"Wow, goodness." Hoshino Ai looked at her, "Is there really no follow-up?"

"There really is no follow-up." Tsugumi Seirina shook her head and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"You know me well, Rina. You must know what I'm thinking."

Hoshino Ai kicked the ball back. Having worked in the police station for so long, even if she was not very good at kicking the ball, she should have learned it more or less through watching and hearing.

"I do not know."

Tsugumi Seina smiled. How could she not know what the other person meant?

Who doesn't know the starting move of kicking the ball?

"You've changed. You weren't like this before."

Hoshino Ai looked at her with some resentment.

"Hehe, it's too late to realize it now, my little beauty."

Tsugumi Seirina cooperated with a 'hehe' smile, leaned forward slightly, stretched out her hand and gently pinched Hoshino Ai's tender face.

"You bastard, stop touching me." Hoshino smiled sadly and slapped the man's hand away, then mentioned something else, "What's the name of your favorite musician?"

Hearing this, Tsugumi Seina looked at her with a slightly puzzled look, not quite understanding why she suddenly mentioned this, but she still answered the question honestly, "Morishima Yukie."

"Yes, that's her." Hoshino Ai nodded, "Around the middle of June, she should be returning home."

"How did you know?"

The doubt in Tsugumi Seirina's eyes became even stronger.

Hoshino Ai is not the kind of person who pays attention to these things.

"My boss said that the other party's first stop is Bunkyo District."

Having said that, Hoshino Ai leaned down on the table and sighed.

She really hated this kind of work of maintaining order, but fortunately she was not among the people selected this time.

"I see."

Tsugumi Serina nodded, but for no reason she thought of the concert at Shirakawa High School in mid-June.

Is it because of this incident that Yukie Morishima came back?

thump, thump, thump

There was a knock on the door and Tsugumi Seina came back to her senses.

"excuse me."

The boss's daughter's voice sounded outside the door.

Crash.

The next moment, the sliding door was opened and the other party walked in with dishes.

Please give me a ticket.

Thank you to Qixing Sanyu and Xingzhiyingpo for your monthly tickets. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Chapter 84 Surprise

With the help of the channels provided by the Kitaen family, the Bunkyo District Police Department quickly followed the clues and uprooted the organization behind the murderer. After interrogation and evidence collection, a series of unsolved unsolved cases and victim files were presented to the public. According to the charges, these criminals received due punishment in open trials, some deserved death, and some went to jail.

For a time, all sectors of society were shocked.

However, Kitagawa Che, who was one of the people who caused this incident, is still living a smooth life and seems to have not been affected at all.

However, just like what a listener left in the comment section of "First Love" - ​​a good song is a good song after all, it will not be buried by the sand called time and the world. When the tide rises and falls and the waves are turbulent, gold will eventually reveal its dazzling side, riding on the ocean current, heading to the shallow sea, and flashing bursts of dazzling brilliance under the midsummer sun.

The trickles of water eventually merge into big rivers, and countless big rivers merge into the sea. Under the general trend, First Love finally topped the new song chart on the first day of June with unstoppable momentum.

The playback rate of "First Love" has been rising in the streets and alleys. Most passers-by can hum along after hearing the prelude. In bars and KTVs, the on-demand rate of this song has quietly climbed to another peak. More and more people are moved and touched by this song. Countless people toss and turn in bed on a busy yet quiet city night.

Perhaps it is true that some people are dressed simply, just ordinary shirts and trousers, but when they stand there, they are forever frozen in your memory.

During the break of the morning assembly on Wednesday, Tsuchiya Seina stood on the podium and talked about the concert incident that had long been widely circulated among the student group.

"I know that students who are relatively well-informed have heard related rumors as early as last week." Tsugumi Seina paused and glanced around the stage. When her eyes passed by Kiriyama Taku, they stayed on him for a full half second. The meaning was self-evident, but she did not point it out. "This matter is true. The specific time is the 17th of this month, which is the Friday of the week after next."

As soon as the words fell, the audience below the podium immediately became lively.

The nerve-wracking monthly exams are over, and people always need to relax, and most students are quite interested in such on-campus activities.

About half a minute later, Tsugumi Seina coughed lightly, interrupting the heated discussion in the classroom. The audience instantly quieted down. She nodded with satisfaction and continued, "We have finished talking about the light things, and now it's time to talk about something more serious.

“Regarding this monthly exam, due to time constraints, I only sent out the score slips yesterday, so today I will just briefly talk about it.

"Overall, everyone performed well in this exam. Many students have made great progress. They obviously worked hard last month and should keep up the good work. The students who had performed poorly before also managed to keep their composure and performed at their best this time. This is great. Keep it up."

"But." Tsugumi Seina changed the subject, her eyes becoming serious and cold, "There are also some students who relaxed their requirements on themselves because they did well in the last exam, and they regressed in this exam. I hope you can learn from your mistakes and adjust your status in time.

"I know that the results of a single test cannot reflect a student's learning status throughout the school year, but everyone should take every test seriously."

The group of students led by Kiriyama Taku who had been discussing heatedly just now immediately became listless.

We are all smart people, so they can naturally hear who their head teacher is scolding.

Seeing the reactions of the students below the stage, Tsugumi Seina smiled in her heart.

She herself was a student, and she knew very well what kind of temperament students of this age have. If they are praised a little, they will be very proud. Unfortunately, most of the students in the class did well in the exam this time, so she needed to give them targeted medicine to make them tighten their strings.

"Then the rest of the morning meeting will be on your own."

Tsugumi Seirina said this as she walked down from the podium. When she was near the classroom door, she seemed to suddenly remember something and turned around to look at Kitagawa Che and Kitagawa Rinone, "Kitagawa, Kitagawa, both of you come out for a moment."

Kitagawa Che and Kitaen Rin looked at each other subconsciously, and a hint of doubt flashed across each other's eyes, but neither of them said much. They just stood up and followed Tsugumi Seina out of the classroom.

"Don't worry, it's not a bad thing. On the contrary, it's a good thing."

After walking for a while towards the principal's office, Tsugumi Seina took the initiative to explain.

Although she didn't look back, she saw the two people looking at each other in the classroom just now. It goes without saying that they must have doubts in their hearts.

"Can you tell me more about this, Rina-san?"

Beichuan Che hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question.
