Chapter37

【Locked again, see you at the old place】

----

It took Jiuji a day to deal with the accumulated meetings and negotiations in the company, and then went to school to deal with homework.He didn't go to class these days, so it doesn't matter if he misses his homework, but it's troublesome to explain to the teacher where he went.Fortunately, he has been living too badly lately, his voice has never been better, and he still sounds hoarse, and he can get a hospital diagnosis report at random to sell the holiday perfectly.

As for Jin Mu, he really turned into a social youth, skipped classes and disappeared directly from school.It's not that Jiuji never thought about canceling his leave and suspending his studies, but after thinking about it carefully, it would be bad if CCG got to him by following the vine. The illusion of living alone in his mother's house.

He doesn't want to turn against CCG for the time being.

Then he went to the Anding District and asked Yongjin to meet there.

Jiuji arrived at the coffee shop an hour earlier, and the shop has been cleaned up and reopened.

When the handsome young man in a black windbreaker with a long body and a narrow waist and long legs stepped into the store, he quickly attracted the attention of many people in the store.Several ghoul guests revealed their eyes without leaving a trace, and greedily looked at this young man with a jade-like face.

"Welcome light—is it you?!" Dong Xiang's enthusiastic voice made a sharp turn, and she herself rushed out of the counter, and Jiu Ji hid back, preventing her from grabbing her collar.

"It seems that your injury is fine." Jiuji said lightly.

"Where is Jinmu? Since then, he really hasn't been to the store once. Is he really going to join the bronze tree?!" Dong Xiang asked excitedly: "Why didn't you stop him!!"

"Dong Xiangjiang..." Ms. Rujian patted her on the shoulder from behind, and Dong Xiang realized that there were other customers in the store, and both ghouls and humans cast surprised glances.

Dong Xiang troubled Miss Rujian to take her place, and took Jiuji upstairs to her room.Kuji saw the teddy bear given to Hina last time and Dong Xiang's rabbit toy placed together.

"Is Hina not there?" Jiuji untied the scarf and took off his coat, and hung the stacks on the back of her desk chair under Dong Xiang's signal.

"She went out with Mr. Sifang." Dong Xiang poured Jiu Ji a cup of hot water, "I don't have anything here to entertain guests, sorry."

"It's okay, plain water is enough, thank you." Jiu Ji took a sip of the hot water and moistened his throat.

"So, what do you think about Jinmu? You don't know where the Bronze Tree is, do you?"

"I know." Jiu Jicai said lightly, "But that's his decision, and I have no right to interfere."

"Are you kidding me!" Dong Xiang's eyes widened in disbelief, "I wouldn't even believe what you said before, let alone now! The smell of that guy on your body almost blows my nose away! "

"Hey?" Jiuji didn't know what she meant, but subconsciously raised his arm and placed it on the tip of his nose, liberating his sense of smell and smelling it, but no matter how he smelled it, he could only smell the perfume he sprayed on his wrist.

"No matter how sensitive your sense of smell is, you won't be able to detect it. It's used by ghouls to warn others not to approach you. If you can get such a strong smell, you two should go to bed, right?"

"...Dong Xiang, you are still a female high school student." Jiu Ji looked down at the neckline a little guiltyly, and made sure that the turtleneck sweater he specially selected covered his neck tightly.

"Don't change the subject." Dong Xiang said irritably, "The Jinmu matter..."

"It's still the answer. It's his decision, and I have no right to interfere. Do you think I didn't stop it? But he convinced me instead. He has his own plan, and he knows exactly what he is doing."

"..." Dong Xiang seemed to want to say something, but couldn't say anything.After struggling for a while, it deflated like a deflated rubber ball. She twisted the corner of the skirt of her uniform and bit her lip with her teeth. "What are you doing! Why! Why is it that he or that idiot brother...why?" Her voice was crying, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

She should be talking about Ayato Kirishima, Kaneki told Kuki about them.At this moment, looking at the girl who was about to cry, Jiuji hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and gently patted her head.

Dong Xiang froze for a moment, but did not open his hand.

"You can understand it as a man's self-esteem." They all want to protect important people, so they yearn for strength.

"What the hell is that!" Dong Xiang scoffed at this.

After Dong Xiang's mood calmed down, Jiu Ji left and went to the store manager.

Mr. Fangcun still has the same smiling face, with an old and kind face, and it feels like even the most ruthless child can be tamed by him quickly.

Speaking of which, it was the first time Jiuji had a face-to-face conversation with the shop owner, and he was inexplicably a little nervous.But the store manager's first sentence made him embarrassed.

"You and Jin Mu-kun are together, right?"

"Yes..." Jiuji couldn't help but raised his hand and sniffed again, but he still didn't smell anything except the perfume.He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking: "Is the smell really strong?"

"It's not a matter of heavy taste, the main thing is that the message conveyed is obvious: this person is mine, and you are not allowed to make a move." Mr. Fangcun said: "Shock and protect. In this way, you don't have to worry about being targeted by customers in the store." gone."

"It doesn't matter to me." Jiuji shrugged.

"That's right, maybe the customers should be more worried." The store manager joked.

The two were silent for a while, and the store manager said first: "I heard from Dong Xiang that in the previous battle with Xuandu, Kaneki beat him to 'half death'."

"...Well, I saw it at the time."

"So, what do you think?"

Even though he couldn't see the store manager's eyes, Jiu Ji felt as if he had been seen through.But he had nothing to hide, so he shrugged his shoulders and said honestly: "Scary, a little scared. But I think he can't beat me now, so I'm not afraid anymore." He should have read medical books in his study at home, and his memory is really good. good. "Also...don't worry. The stronger he is, the better he can protect himself. I'm relieved when he's safe."

The store manager's serious face gradually softened, and finally he couldn't help laughing. "Sure enough, you are very similar to your mother."

"It's very similar to my mother...it's not a compliment for me." Jiuji smiled. "Speaking of which, I have something I've always wanted to ask... How did Mr. Fangcun know my mother?"

"I fought against her back then, and she was really an incredible human being. No one would have imagined that the 'box-carrying man without a suitcase' who made ghouls so frightened at the time was such a petite woman." Manager Fangcun showed a nostalgic expression, "At the beginning, she was a member of the special operations squad who was in charge of hunting me down. The other investigators retreated, but she insisted on chasing me for three districts, and beat me to death. She narrowly escaped death, and she sniffed me again The smell caught me in my wife Yuna's store... At that time, I thought I was going to die, and even my wife would be sentenced for covering me, and it turned out..." Speaking of this, the store manager couldn't help laughing , and when he mentioned his wife's name, he couldn't help showing heavy nostalgia and sadness on his weather-beaten face. "In the end, she said that Yuna was too good-looking, and she couldn't bear to let such a beauty cry, and said that as long as Yuna kissed her, nothing happened."

Jiu Ji: "..."

Jiu Ji stretched out a hand to make an oath: "I think it is necessary to explain that she is not gay, but as a female man, she loves every delicate and beautiful girl, and extends her compassion As for me, I bend for love, so we are nothing alike."

The store manager couldn't help laughing out loud, and it took him a while to hold back his laughter, and he looked at Jiu Ji more cordially. "I'm not saying you're alike here, Kuki-kun."

Jiuji thought for a while, "Then there should be nothing else,"

"This is why the authorities are fascinated, Jiu Ji-kun. You not only inherited her beautiful red hair and powerful strength, but also a pure heart. You are sincere and straightforward, sincere and loyal to your feelings, and you are the one you like. People are very lucky, so I believe Jin Mu-jun will be happy."

"You, you're flattering..." Jiuji blushed immediately from his blunt praise, he lowered his head in embarrassment, and whispered: "There is no such thing. Like others and being liked by others are the same thing." A happy thing."

The store manager rolled his eyes with a smile. "You can think like this is better than anything else, I hope you can continue to think like this. After all, the instinct of ghouls is to plunder, so when they meet someone they like, most ghouls will ignore the wishes of the person and forcibly monopolize them Jinmu is already a qualified ghoul, and will definitely grow into an extremely powerful ghoul in the future. But after all, he is a monk who has become a monk halfway, let alone instinct, even older and more experienced ghouls have I can't restrain it all the time. He may lose control and do some things that are unacceptable to you in the future, so please bear with him."

Thinking of Kaneki's performance, Jiuji already had the idea of ​​putting him under house arrest...

"He already has this tendency. To be honest, it's really easy to make people feel pressured."

"Hahaha, after all, you are his most important person, and the fundamental principle of all his actions is to protect you."

"Even if you say that, if he dares to do anything excessive, I will still beat him." Jiuji squeezed his fingers.

He also thanked the store manager for taking care of Jin Mu before, and led the Anding District to rescue him after Jin Mu was taken away.

"That's what I should do. The ghouls should help each other, this is the rule of the 20th district."

"No matter what, thank you. I will keep this kindness in my heart. If you need any help in the future, feel free to come to me. The Yaoshisi chaebol will not hesitate."

The store manager responded with a smile.

Jiuji went downstairs, because Dong Xiang was too emotional just now, he didn't notice other people, but now that he calms down, he can easily feel some malicious eyes.

He pretended not to notice anything, and found a corner to sit down. There was only a girl with ponytail sitting on a table near the window, holding a copy of "The Egg of the Black Goat" and reading it.But Jiuji only glanced at her and found that her attention was not on the book at all, but turned her eyes to observe the surrounding environment, and a pretentious book breath that seemed to be deliberately imitating someone came to her face, giving people a nondescript look Feel.

Jiu Ji didn't think much about it, and was about to order after sitting down, when the lady brought a cup of coffee and said that a gentleman over there invited it.

Kuki looked in the direction Miss Irumi was pointing at. It was a handsome man with a sharp-edged face that seemed to be of mixed race.When Jiuji looked over, he also showed a gentlemanly smile.

Jiuji picked up the coffee cup and stood up, walking towards the man, who immediately showed a surprised smile, his fluffy bangs covered his flashing red eyes.

Jiuji originally wanted to scare the chickens and monkeys, but remembering what Dong Xiang and the store manager said just now, he still didn't do anything, but returned the coffee to him blankly.Sure enough, within half a meter of him, his expression changed.When Jiuji put down the coffee and turned to leave, he still heard the man mutter unwillingly and fearfully: "Tch, it's rare to meet a top quality, and it turned out to be the owner..." His companion encouraged him, saying: "This is not a good idea." Is it more exciting? Don't you just like challenging things." As a result, he was scolded. "No matter how challenging it is, I'm not interested in risking my life. Don't you feel it? The guy who left that aura is quite powerful. If we attack him, when his master comes to settle accounts with me, we will die together one."

Although Jiuji was dissatisfied with their title of "Master", he also knew that some ghouls just thought they were superior, and frowned as if they didn't hear it.

Jiuji ordered a cappuccino with triple sugar and triple milk.

After drinking half of it, Yongjin finally came.Jiuji was sitting at the corner of the store that was only around a corner, and never could see him, but he could smell Yongjin.Just as Jiu Ji wanted to call him out, from the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw the eyes of the girl at the table by the window brighten up, looking at Yong Jin excitedly, her lips twitched, and she said four words excitedly in a low voice.

...use...exhaust, win, and...be bright?

After all, Jiuji is also from a famous family, and he should receive all the elite education, including several foreign languages.So he can speak Chinese, and immediately recognized the pronunciation of those four characters.

Thinking carefully, he narrowed his eyes.

Always Yingliang.

It's Yongjin's name.
