Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

In the other person's words, "After all, you are all friends who came to watch my sister's game, so as the elder one, let me pay for this meal."

This is a somewhat strange culture in foreign countries. The first dinner party is usually paid for by the elders, in order to show care for the younger generations. Who pays for subsequent dinners is another matter.

All in all, on the way home, Sawayama Haruno was still somewhat impressed by how generous Naoto Ezaki was.

After all, tonight's bill seemed quite high, not to mention the other party had casually wiped out the cost of the damaged equipment, even though it wasn't a large sum.

"In the end, I still didn't get a chance to ask how this brother came about. Forget it."

Zeshan Haruno said to himself: "After all, it's someone else's family matter, so it's better not to ask such embarrassing questions."

The last time Ezaki Suguha suddenly brought it up herself, it was actually quite awkward already, and it would be even more weird if she asked again.

We were only in love for less than two hours, and just thinking about it makes me feel like I don’t know what to say.

Forget it, let’s go home early. I don’t know if Maki Miyazawa has eaten yet, and what she is doing?

He must be teasing Salmon Ball.

On the other side, at Sawayama Haruno's home.

The short-haired girl who was being talked about was now lying on the sofa, blowing her hair with a hair dryer.

She was wearing a ridiculously loose white T-shirt today. If Sawayama Haruno was right next to her, he would probably recognize her at a glance. Isn't this her clothes?

That’s right, I stole it, Miyazawa Maki thought proudly.

What's wrong with that? Isn't it natural for a girlfriend to wear her boyfriend's T-shirt?

Don't think she doesn't know. In fact, Mana had secretly hidden two pieces of his clothes before, right?

One of them was a coat. Mana treasured it so much at that time that she had to wash it carefully by herself and didn’t dare to hang it out to dry with other family members’ clothes. She treasured it so much.

Of course, she couldn't understand Mana's behavior at that time, but now she can.

"I said, salmon balls"

"You think he smells good, too?"

As Miyazawa Maki was blowing her hair, she couldn't help but mutter, "It's really weird. Other boys smell bad, but I can't get enough of Haruno's smell."

"Meow~"

"Don't try to quibble. You cling to him every day because you think he smells good, right?"

"Meow meow~"

"What? I'm not a pervert!"

Miyazawa Maki's face instantly turned red, and she said with a lack of confidence: "This is not abnormal, I remember there is a scientific basis for it, right?"

"It seems to be something like, genes choose each other, and then hormones and so on make you feel that the person you choose smells good!"

"Meow~"

"hateful."

Miyazawa Maki puffed up her cheeks.

Underestimated by salmon balls!

Although I don't know what its meowing means, I always feel like this little green tea girl is looking down on me.

What can she do? She just likes Haruno that much.

"Speaking of genetic selection and so on"

"Feeling happy and unhappy at the same time, right?" She stopped what she was doing, threw the hair dryer aside, turned over and murmured, "If it's genetic selection, it feels like fate, but Mana and I are identical twins, so doesn't that mean she and Haruno are also destined to be together?"

"Oh, I hate twins."

She turned her head to look at the Salmon Maru lying on the sofa, who was no longer meowing, and complained quietly: "If we weren't identical twins and didn't look exactly the same, Mana and I would actually be able to get along well, right?"

That's what it should be.

But unfortunately, there are not so many ifs in this world.

Ding-dong-

ding dong -- ding dong --

While she was daydreaming, the doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting all of Miyazawa Maki's thoughts.

She sat up straight on the sofa and stared at the corner in a daze.

The door was on the other side of the corner and she couldn't see it, but the sound certainly came through.

"Meow!"

Salmon Maru suddenly got a little angry, and without waiting for Miyazawa Maki to react, he quickly slipped under the sofa.

Ding-dong-

Ding-dong-

The doorbell continued to ring, and Miyazawa Maki suddenly felt something was wrong.

Who?

have no idea.

It's definitely not Haruno anyway.

If the other person has the key, even if the key is lost, she can send a message. Even if the mobile phone is out of battery, she can call herself out with just a gentle shout. After all, she usually doesn't go to bed early.

If that’s the case, then who is ringing the doorbell?

Neighbors? That's even more impossible. Haruno is the only one living on this floor. The other party has already said so.

What's more, I have lived here for a long time. If there were really any neighbors, they would have noticed it long ago.

Who is ringing the doorbell?

Dragging stiff steps, Miyazawa Maki walked carefully to the entrance, but she didn't have the courage to go forward and look out through the peephole.

She whispered to the door, "Who?"

"."

The other party seemed to have not expected that it was a girl's voice. Suddenly, all the movements stopped, and even the doorbell was no longer pressed.

But the more this happens, the more creepy it becomes.

Maki Miyazawa suddenly got goose bumps, and she didn't even notice it. It seemed that the air conditioner in the living room was turned on too cold today, and she could hardly bear it.

"What are you doing?"

She swallowed and staggered back to the living room. She then immediately picked up her phone that was charging nearby and prepared to send a message to Sawayama Haruno.

Don't scare me!

She is actually very timid. She is not afraid of people, but she is afraid of ghosts!

"Salmon Ball, come out quickly."

After sending the message, Miyazawa Maki's tense spirit was still not relieved. She called out to Salmon Maru with a trembling voice, wanting to take him back to the room.

But the salmon balls that went under the sofa seemed to have fallen into a huge abyss, and no sound was heard anymore.

Chapter 112 A familiar girl

“There are more people here tonight.”

Walking out of the station, Sawayama Haruno noticed that there seemed to be many more pedestrians on the street than usual.

It's clearly a working day.

In an open space not far from the station, two people were singing with guitars in their hands, but unfortunately not many people paid attention to their performance. Even though the flow of people today was larger than usual, they just walked past the two people as if nothing had happened.

Sawayama Haruno stood there and watched for a few more seconds. The song was pop rock, and he couldn't tell what it was, but it sounded pretty good.

Come on, you two. With a plot like this unfolding, the martial arts hall won't be far away from you, he thought.

The phone rang, interrupting the rest of his thoughts.

After taking it out and looking at it, the name displayed on it was Maki Miyazawa who was still at home.

Sawayama Haruno didn't think much about it and answered the call, wanting the other party to also listen to the pop rock performance not far away.

However, as soon as he put the phone to his ear, the anxious shouting from the other end almost deafened him.

"Haruno!!"

On the other end, Miyazawa Maki started crying as she yelled, "Where are you? Come back soon!"

"Calm down, my ears are hurting from all the noise."

"Someone just kept ringing the doorbell outside, you bastard!" Miyazawa Maki was almost dead with grievance when talking about this. She screamed into the phone, "They just kept ringing the doorbell and didn't say who they were. Come back soon!"

"Ring the doorbell?"

Sawayama Haruno was also puzzled for a moment.

"Didn't you see who was standing outside?"

"How dare you watch it in this situation?!"

Miyazawa Maki was a little mad and said, "Who would come to someone's house as a guest after nine or ten o'clock?"

".That seems to be true, but it should be okay for you to take a look through the cat's eye, right?" Zeshan Haruno said uncertainly, "At least let me confirm the other party's identity."

"Are there any friends you know who would come over now?"

Miyazawa Maki said through gritted teeth.

She was almost scared to death, and Haruno actually asked her to look through the peephole. Who would dare to look?

In general horror movies, the protagonist goes to the peephole to check who is outside the door, but is caught off guard by seeing a ghost face right in front of the peephole.

This is really scary!

She didn't want to go over and see it.

"Well, it seems that few of the friends I know now know that I have moved to a new home."

Zeshan Haruno rubbed his brows and said helplessly: "I know, I will rush back now, go back to the bedroom and lock the door, don't open the door before I come back."

"Then hurry up."

After hanging up the phone, Sawayama Haruno felt both amused and distressed when recalling Miyazawa Maki's obviously frightened tone.

I didn't expect this guy to be afraid of this kind of thing. Is he still a child?

However, it was a bit scary when the doorbell suddenly rang in the middle of the night.

Especially for ordinary islanders, because there are unwritten rules here, it is absolutely impossible to visit or disturb others at night.

Even if they are members of the town committee, it is unlikely that they would come to your house at night, so it is normal to be afraid when you see this.

Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno no longer paid attention to the two people who were still singing hard, and strode towards his home.

It didn't take too much time to get there from the station, especially since Haruno Sawayama realized the seriousness of the situation and walked even faster than usual.

This time, it took him less than half the time to get home.

When he entered the reception hall, he took a special look in the direction of the counter, but he didn't see the person on duty tonight. He didn't know whether he had gone to the bathroom or something else. In short, he had a bad feeling.

If the floor he lived on wasn't so high, he would have even wanted to take the stairs directly to catch up.

Fortunately, only ten minutes had passed since Miyazawa Maki called.

The elevator door opened and closed, and the floor numbers kept jumping.

Sawayama Haruno had been staring at the display screen. When he stopped, he took a deep breath, and then after the door opened again, he walked out with his nerves tense.

His house is located on the right hand side of the corner after you come out of the elevator. You can see the gate after just a few steps.

If there really was some perverted harasser like that, he wouldn't mind letting him experience what it felt like to have his bamboo sword crushed.

The distance was getting shorter and shorter. Sawayama Haruno held his breath and quickly became alert after turning the corner.

"."

No one.
