After rebirth, I became Tokyo Sentimental

Chapter 81 80. The Devil's Invitation

The next day the sky was blue and clear, the white clouds looked like pieces of marshmallows, and the air was exceptionally fresh.

Good weather often brings a good mood.

This is a scientific phenomenon, mainly because the pineal gland in the human body is very sensitive to warm sunlight. In good weather conditions, less pineal hormone is secreted, while the concentrations of thyroid hormone and adrenaline are higher, and the latter has the effect of promoting cell regeneration.

However, this will only affect the mood when the subjective mood remains unchanged and the objective conditions change.

And when Kurosaki Orizuki, who had stayed overnight in the Toranomon residential building with Suzumiya Saka, walked out of the building and her skin touched the scorching sun above her head, she raised her hand in a trance and placed it on her forehead to block out the light.

She had never thought that Suzumiya Saka would show that kind of expression in front of a man, and had no intention of wanting to get away from that man because of her.

She and Suzumiya Saka stayed overnight last night.

We slept together.

The bungalow that Harano Tsukasa rented in a residential building in Toranomon was quite large, with five bedrooms and three living rooms, so it could accommodate everyone, including his mother. And Kurosaki Orizuki slept side by side with Suzumiya Saka, just like they had done in the past ten years when they stayed together.

The only difference from before was that she, who had the habit of going to bed early, did not go to bed early. Instead, she was still using her mobile phone in the middle of the night to send messages to someone who was only separated by a wall.

And they were in the same bed.

However, Suzumiya Saka had her back to him.

From that moment on, Kurosaki Oritsuki had a clear understanding of the confrontation between her and Harano Tsukasa.

She lost.

The loss was complete.

I thought everything was going as planned and the overall progress was smooth, but I never imagined that the most important base had already been easily controlled by the opponent.

Although over the years Kurosaki Orizuki often wanted to give up this relationship after taking advantage of Suzumiya Saka, when she really gave up, especially when she was forced to give up, she had intermittent palpitations all night, making her breathless.

It's just that the experience of so many years has made Kurosaki Orizuki not unable to accept defeat. No matter what happens, he will remain calm and at least will not panic and escape.

"You don't look happy?"

The voice of Harano Tsukasa suddenly sounded beside him.

Kurosaki Orizuki came to his senses after hearing the voice.

She turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, stared at his face for a few seconds, and then said, "You win."

"In that case, are you willing to join our newly formed family?" Yuan Ye Si had a decent smile on his face and said with a smile when he heard this.

"I don't want to hear any more sarcasm."

"I still have work to do, so I won't stay any longer."

Kurosaki Oritsuki rarely wanted to act anymore and her patience was exhausted. After all, there was no point in continuing.

Harano Tsukasa seemed to have anticipated her reaction, but he walked up to her with a calm expression and said with a smile, "Let me take you there. Your car is parked in Ikebukuro, so I just happened to be going back."

Kurosaki Orizuki stared into his eyes.

Yuan Ye Si was still smiling.

There was no indication of his thoughts on his face.

"Okay." She said after a moment of silence.

A few minutes later, when they arrived at the underground parking lot of the Toranomon residential building, Kurosaki Orizuki suddenly frowned as he looked at the car he had ridden in yesterday.

"Changed cars?"

"Didn't you sit here yesterday?"

"Forgot to ask."

"Ok."

Kurosaki Orizuki looked at the pure white Porsche parked in the parking space. There was no license plate and the tires were new and not covered with much dust, so she could tell at a glance that this was a new car that had not been bought for long.

Very beautiful. As for cars, even if there are some car companies that are just trying to make a profit, among traditional luxury brands, the more expensive the better in terms of appearance and performance.

But looking at this new car, and thinking of how Suzumiya Saka was always tolerant, and how she would quickly lose her temper even when angry with Harano Tsukasa, Kurosaki Orizuki suddenly felt a strong sense of discomfort in his heart.

Even though she knew that Yuan Ye Si was rich.

But she had seen Harano Tsukasa's resume through Suzumiya Saka, and she didn't know where his money came from.

So with that uncomfortable feeling just now, when Kurosaki Orizuki placed his delicate and weak palm on the handlebar, he suddenly asked: "Did Sasaki buy it for you?"

"Huh? No." Harano Tsukasa replied.

Kurosaki Orizuki nodded expressionlessly, opened the car door and got in, as if she had not asked before.

The car slowly drove out of the basement.

Since he had just bought the car, Tsukasa Harano had no time to decorate it, but the car's built-in fragrance system still lets the interior of the car have a light fragrance that can calm people's mood after smelling it.

Well known.

Good cars have better noise isolation.

So the car was surprisingly quiet, with only the slight vibration of the engine when accelerating reaching the ears.

"Ms. Kurosaki."

"what happened?"

"Well, how should I put it? Why do I feel like you're a bit jealous right now?"

"Your sense is inaccurate."

She turned her head and looked out the car window.

"Maybe." Yuan Ye Si held the steering wheel with one hand, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Come to think of it, we have known each other for such a long time, and we will soon become a family, but I don't know your occupation yet."

"Doctor, I'm answering you for the third time."

"This time I mean the direction of specialization."

"Respiratory department."

After a pause, Harano Tsukasa glanced at Kurosaki Orizuki's profile in the rearview mirror, and after a moment's consideration, he asked, "Although it may be a little offensive to ask this, for the sake of our future happiness, I still want to ask a question that is a little brazen, is that okay?" "I'm not in the mood to answer your question."

"Ms. Kurosaki doesn't seem to be in good health. Is there any hidden illness?"

"..."

"Cough...cough!"

As he was talking, Kurosaki Orizuki suddenly started coughing, his breathing became rapid, and his chest kept heaving, as if someone was strangling him and he couldn't breathe.

There was some blood foam on the front of the passenger seat.

She covered her chest and breathed deeply as hard as she could, as if trying to suppress the discomfort as quickly as possible.

Kurosaki Orizuki swallowed the sweet taste in his throat, turned his head and stared at Harano Tsukasa with bloodshot eyes, trying to suppress the feeling of being out of breath, and said in a hoarse voice: "Congenital asthma, are you satisfied?"

"I'll go get you some medicine."

While saying this, Harano Tsukasa braked as quickly as possible while keeping the car stable.

The smile on his face disappeared completely.

At a time like this, Harano Tsukasa was not unaware of the fact that human life was the most important thing. After all, he and Kurosaki Oritsuki did not have any mortal hatred in the strict sense, so there was no need for him to deliberately seek revenge at such a critical moment.

When Kurosaki Orizuki saw Harano Tsukasa's joking look, he was slightly startled, but then he came to his senses when he saw him unbuckle his seat belt and was about to get out of the car, and subconsciously reached out and grabbed his hand.

Yuan Ye Si paused in his movement of getting out of the car.

Kurosaki Orizuki felt his gaze and retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted. He said with forced calmness:

“…I have it in my bag.”

The chance to suppress the asthma attack by regulating breathing on his own was gone, and Kurosaki Orizuki did not torture himself intentionally any more. He took out a small can of aerosol from his bag and covered his mouth and nose with it, his chest rising and falling as he received the treatment with the medicine.

After receiving drug treatment, Kurosaki Oritsuki's condition improved visibly and her breathing became stable.

When she moved the spray medicine away, she closed her eyes and seemed to be regulating her breathing. Her face was paler than before. After a long while, she opened her eyes.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Don't provoke me."

"Well."

Looking at Yuanye Si's serious expression, she remembered his immediate move to get out of the car just now. After a moment of silence, she took the initiative to say, "I'm sorry for dirtying your car. I'll pay for the cleaning later."

"That's not necessary." Yuan Ye Si was relieved when he saw that her condition had really stabilized. He hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Is your illness serious?"

Asthma cannot be cured fundamentally.

Whether nature or nurture.

After figuring out the disease, Harano Tsukasa had a rough idea of what Kurosaki Oritsuki's so-called human experiments were about.

If it was before getting on the bus, Kurosaki Orizuki would not have been in the mood to answer him, but seeing how serious he was when he saw her illness flare up just now, she seemed to understand that he was a serious person, so after organizing her words, she still answered: "It has been much better in recent years, but because I didn't receive proper treatment when I was a child, the flare-ups are more frequent every winter and rainy season."

“How is asthma treated?”

"Combine drug treatment with respiratory rehabilitation, use bronchodilators or steroids, exercise the respiratory muscles in your spare time, improve lung function, and improve the general condition of the respiratory tract." Kurosaki Orizuki explained slowly.

"Is there really no cure? For example, through transplantation?" Yuan Ye Si changed the subject.

Kurosaki Orizuki couldn't help but look at him.

appeared again.

This illusion of being seen through.

She had this illusion since they first met, that every time her thoughts seemed to be seen through by the man in front of her named Harano Tsukasa.

She had never felt anything like this before.

Even though she is a doctor, Kurosaki Oritsuki actually believes more in the sixth sense, because this thing has been scientifically proven to be possible.

But the so-called psychology does not have the magic of being able to see through people's hearts like in the movies, but every time Harano Tsukasa is able to tell the secrets in his heart, she instinctively feels again and again that it is not a coincidence.

However, Kurosaki Orizuki still suppressed the doubts in his heart because he had no evidence. Moreover, something like mind reading was impossible to happen in reality. He could only stop himself from thinking about it.

"Asthma is a lung disease, but the site of onset is in the bronchi. The pathological cause is closely related to airway smooth muscle spasm, increased mucus secretion, airway mucosal edema, airway epithelial damage and desquamation. It is not something that can be explained in just a few words."

"As for the transplant you mentioned, currently stem cell composite bio-nano artificial trachea transplantation is a relatively reliable method, but there are still no successful cases."

"Even if it succeeds, as I just said, this disease can be effectively controlled, but a radical cure involves too many muscle groups and organs, and a lung transplant may be required. The risk is too high. Even if there is a reliable plan, I'm afraid no doctor would dare to gamble the rest of his life on this operation."

Yuan Ye Si nodded thoughtfully, and then followed up the topic by asking, "Have you done any research yourself?"

"Yes." Kurosaki Orizuki nodded slowly.

"I heard that this kind of research requires a lot of samples and experiments, and the equipment requirements are also very high. I'm not too sure about the details, but I think the cost of researching this kind of thing will probably not be low, right?" he asked again.

"Very high."

"So do you need money?"

"What do you mean?"

"If you need money, I can lend it to you temporarily. It doesn't matter even if you can't pay it back."

"..."

Kurosaki Orizuki turned her head and looked at Harano Tsukasa's serious expression, which did not seem like a joke, and she could not figure out what he meant by this sentence.

However, when they talked about the illness, human experiments, and suddenly brought up the issue of money, she felt even more suspicious.

It was as if Harano Tsukasa really had the ability to see through people's hearts, and could peel their hearts like peeling an orange, and set up language traps one after another according to the secrets in their hearts.

And this seems to be a warm proposal.

There is also…

Suspicion of the devil sending out the invitations.
