Ke Xue: Xiaolan delivers goods to your door at the beginning

"It's really frustrating."

"He was sentenced later," Saku Hoji said casually, then stood up, waved, and called out:

"Mr. Lin, we're here!"

"It's been a long time, all three of you." Lin Xiaofeng walked over and sat down next to Mikasa Yuji with a smile.

under.

Fei Law Firm doesn't only have these few lawyers; it's just that the ones who came with us now are the more senior ones.

Lin Xiaofeng had experience interacting with them.

"Mr. Lin, it's been a long time. It's been quite a while since we've had a drink together."

Kenzo Shiozawa chuckled and patted his beer belly, a symbol of his impressive alcohol tolerance.

Yuji Mikasa, who had been the quietest, saw Lin Xiaofeng sit down next to him and awkwardly made room for him, echoing, "Qianqian ren shan."

"Yes, the last time we had a chance to get together was a few years ago when Attorney Kiyoshi first defeated Prosecutor Kujo."

Kenzo Shiozawa clapped his hands, suddenly realizing, "So, Attorney Kiyoshi invited us long-time employees to take a vacation because of Prosecutor Kujo!"

Lin Xiaofeng chuckled dryly, silently thinking: It has nothing to do with me...

Next, to warm up the audience, Norifumi Saku continued telling the story of his neighbor.

Kenzo Shiozawa and Yuji Mikasa both perked up their ears in unison, looking very interested.

Upon hearing the name, Lin Xiaofeng almost spat out the tea he was drinking.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Are you alright, Mr. Lin?" Saku Hoji handed over a few sheets of paper and asked.

"No, it's okay."

Lin Xiaofeng gradually recovered, but the way he looked at Saku Hoshi became somewhat strange.

On the stairs, the sounds of women laughing and talking rose and fell.

All four of them turned their heads at the same time.

Eri walked at the front, speaking the least, occasionally turning back to add a few words.

What she said most often was that the approachable and easygoing (Kuriyama Midori) would occasionally say some things that made people laugh, even the usually aloof Eri couldn't help but chuckle.

Ritsuko Usui's gentle smile never faded, neither too much nor too little.

The three of them walked together, becoming a beautiful sight.

Saku Norifumi put aside his storytelling mood, exchanged glances with his two colleagues, and suggested:

"Now that Attorney Fei and the others have come down, let's go see the squirrels together."

"To be honest, I haven't fed any animals since I moved away from my hometown, and now I'm actually looking forward to it."

“You’re right, taking a forest bath in the countryside far from Tokyo is a good idea.” - Kenji Shiozawa

To create a conformist ideology.

The three middle-aged men hit it off immediately and left the hotel arm in arm.

Lin Xiaofeng lingered for a while, and after waiting for Fei Yingli, he followed them and acted together:

Three middle-aged men and three beautiful women—anyone with a brain knows which to choose.

……

In the lush forest, the setting sun, announcing the approach of night, casts its rays, making the fallen ginger-yellow maple leaves shine like gold.

Three middle-aged men walked ahead, their hands clasped around each other's shoulders, and began to sing "Island Song" intermittently.

The singing was extremely awful.

Surprisingly, it has a unique charm amidst such beautiful scenery.

"So beautiful!"

Kuriyama Midori closed her eyes, opened her arms, and slowly inhaled the fresh air that had just been photosynthesized, letting out a series of moans of enjoyment.

She was carrying a transparent plastic bag, which was bulging with 450 nuts to feed the squirrels.

Ritsuko Usui stretched out one hand and placed it in front of her. As she moved her palm, patches of light appeared in an alternating pattern.

She chuckled and said, "This is nature. If you have time to come here with someone you love, it would be very romantic."

She said nothing, yet it was as if she had said something.

Eri Kisaki silently walked a few steps away from Lin Xiaofeng, and pouted:

"Attorney Usui is so beautiful, finding a suitable boyfriend would be a piece of cake for her. Saying something like that is too modest."

"is it?"

Ritsuko Usui looked at Eri Kisaki, her eyes crinkling, and said, "I'm not being modest, the person I like doesn't like me at all."

Eri's face stiffened, and she slowly looked at Lin Xiaofeng beside her.

Lin Xiaofeng's heart skipped a beat. He shook the plastic bag in his hand, looked around, and changed the subject:

"Didn't they say there were squirrels around here? Could they have been scared away by the noise of Attorney Saku and the other two?"

Kuriyama Midori suddenly realized, stomped her foot in anger, and said:

"I knew it! How come we walked so far and didn't see a squirrel!"

She clasped her hands together, making a megaphone shape, and reminded him:

"Attorney Saku, you three, stop singing! If you keep singing, the squirrels will all disappear!"

The singing stopped abruptly, and Saku Norifumi and the other two turned around, apologizing repeatedly.

533. Not suitable for children.

Without the three men's torment, the squirrel became much more active.

Gradually, small heads began to peek out from behind the branches of the tree. Pure black eyes blinked repeatedly as they stared at the group below. They held an unknown fruit in their mouths, slowly nibbling on it, their lips bulging.

Kuriyama Midori placed a few walnuts under a tree inhabited by squirrels, then tiptoed back to the group and explained softly:

"Wild squirrels are afraid of people, so you need to give them some food first, and then you can feed them when they relax their guard."

Eri nodded, then realized what she meant and looked at her in surprise, saying, "Midori, how did you know?"

Kuriyama Midori chuckled and said, "I saw it on my phone."

Hearing this, Eri Kisaki pursed her lips and continued looking down at the tree.

Before long, several bold squirrels nimbly climbed down from the branches.

They brought their little heads close to the walnuts on the ground, smelled them, and then raised their little hands to put the walnuts directly into their mouths.

His cheeks were squeezed full, like a bulging pocket.

"Kawaii~"

Kuriyama Midori exclaimed in surprise and quickly ran to the tree.

It seemed as if they recognized her, for when she appeared behind the squirrels, they did not run away, but merely turned around and glanced at her, their eyes devoid of any emotion, before lowering their heads to continue eating.

"Secretary Li Qunshan Yi actually knows her stuff when it comes to watching football," said Sajiu Ifushi, scratching his head and laughing.

"In that case, I'll get started."

He rolled up his sleeves, got ready, and looked around, searching for branches where there were more squirrels.

The squirrels in this area are all attracted to Kuriyama Green's food, so attracting others will likely be very difficult.

Soon, Saku Norifumi heard the rustling of leaves not far away. He stared intently at the sound, began to move, and muttered:

"Everyone, I'll be going now. Let's keep in touch by phone when we meet up later."

"I'll come along too, it'll be good to have company." Kenzo Shiozawa followed him, carrying the food.

"Wait for me!" Yuji Mikasa didn't want to be left alone, so he hurriedly caught up with her.

Eri Kisaki looked at Ritsuko Usui, who smiled slightly and nodded, as if she hadn't understood her hint.

Eri Kisaki narrowed her eyes slightly:

The three men wisely found excuses to leave, but it seems this woman won't give up easily.

At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng took her hand and suggested, "Let's go explore other places too."

"Where's Attorney Usui?" Eri asked casually.

Ritsuko Usui shook her head and chuckled, "Don't worry about me. I'll just walk around here. It's nice to take a stroll in the woods."

After saying that, she put her hands behind her back and walked slowly forward, stepping on the leaves.

Seeing her lonely figure, Eri felt a pang of sadness: Had she wronged her...?

"Don't just stand there, let's go." Lin Xiaofeng interrupted her reverie:

"If we don't leave now, it will get late."

Eri Kisaki hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's go."

……

In the woods.

Lin Xiaofeng chose a direction completely opposite to that of Saku Fushi, but he soon spotted the squirrel.

Before long, a group of adorable little creatures gathered under the tree to eat.

Eri Kisaki crouched under the tree, looking tenderly at the furry creature with its bulging mouth:

"They're so cute, just like 'Little Dragon'."

"If only people could be this simple..."

As if struck by a thought, she turned her head, her gaze lingering on the man beside her, and slowly said:

Do you know why I asked you to come to Karuizawa with me?

The wind was calm, and Lin Xiaofeng looked at her clear, bright eyes in the sunset, his brain racing:

Anniversary? No, that's not right.

Birthday? That's even less right.

Putting all that aside, the person who could remember so vividly in Eri's heart, and who could look at her with such a resentful gaze, is...

—— Yukiko.

Aside from Yukiko, she never paid any attention to anyone else.

In the incident involving the Yabuchi family of Gunma, he specifically instructed that Yukiko's name should not be broadcast.

Aside from his name, Yukiko was completely unrelated to this incident in the news.

So it was... the last fishing competition.

At that time, Yukiko accepted the award under the name of Eri Kisaki, successfully experiencing the thrill of being number one.

Having found the root cause, Lin Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief and quietly got up:

At this point, we shouldn't waste time explaining.

No matter how you explain it, the matter is already over.

The matter was closed, and there was no going back.

The right thing to do is to gloss over this matter with other things.

Without hesitation, he raised his head and shouted:

"I love you, Young."

Under the sonic attack, the squirrels scattered and fled instantly, dropping the kernels from their mouths to the ground.

Lin Xiaofeng was about to call out a second or third time, but Eri Kisaki didn't give him the chance. Her face flushed, she covered his mouth and stopped him:

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

"We're not far from where Xiao Lü is. What if she hears us?!"
