She thought she would have to coax this public security officer who disliked the FBI into letting him get over the frustration of having his best friend snatched away by an FBI agent.
But before she could even start coaxing him, he had already coaxed himself. Was he looking down on her coaxing skills? Or was he looking down on her coaxing skills?
Unfortunately, someone who had already started working obviously didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise even if he was pretending, he would have put on a depressed expression to let Hoshino Aoi coax him.
But Aoi Hoshino didn't completely ignore it.
Seeing that he was like a hardworking little bee, taking care of all the work for both of them, Aoi Hoshino blinked her eyes, moved closer, and began to follow behind Toru Amuro. Wherever he went, she went there, and whatever he did, she watched from the side.
The little look of him looking at him eagerly made Amuro Toru laugh so hard that he couldn't help laughing out loud.
After meeting her innocent eyes, the smile on Amuro Toru's face grew a little more, but at least he remembered to save her some face, so after laughing, he finally coughed lightly and put away the smile on his face.
"Ahem... Miss Solana, could you help me cut the cucumber into shreds?"
As he spoke, he handed the knife in his hand to Hoshino Aoi. Although the smile was gone from his face and he looked like he was seriously asking for her help, there was actually a smile in his eyes when he looked at her.
Bathed in such a gaze, Hoshino Aoi's heart suddenly accelerated, and a blush instantly covered her cheeks. It was rare that she felt a little embarrassed.
The person who is usually so talkative that he would say he likes someone to their face, now becomes so shy just because of a look from the other person.
This made Toru Amuro's eyes move slightly, and he vaguely understood something in his heart, but at the same time, he became more confused.
A bit strange.
He thought.
Can a person have two completely different reactions when facing the same relationship?
Being both shy and not shy at the same time always gave people a sense of disconnection, as if she was facing two different people...
etc!
Two people?
Toru Amuro's eyes were slightly dim, and there was a hint of thought between his brows.
"Mr. Amuro? Mr. Amuro? Toru-kun?"
"Um?"
A sound nearby interrupted his thoughts. When Amuro Toru came to his senses, he saw Hoshino Aoi looking at him with a puzzled look on her face. She obviously didn't understand what he was thinking and why she suddenly became dazed for no reason.
"Do you think this thickness is okay? If it is, I will follow this standard in the future."
Hoshino Aoi looked at him suspiciously, and when she saw his eyebrows curved, she knew that he had no intention of saying anything. Seeing this, Hoshino Aoi had no intention of forcing him to say anything, so she just raised her eyebrows at him and then lightly changed the subject.
Hearing this, Amuro Toru lowered his eyes and chuckled softly:
"That's all, but I'll take care of the rest. Ms. Solana has been very helpful. Now, go to the living room and take a rest."
"Huh?"
Hoshino Aoi raised her eyebrows, and couldn't help but pick up a piece of cucumber shreds in her hand and shook it at Amuro Toru.
"A big favor?"
That’s it?
Her eyes were filled with the expression 'Are you kidding me? Just a few cucumber shreds are already considered a big favor, right?'
Toru Amuro couldn't help laughing, but even so, he had no intention of changing his words. Instead, he gently but firmly took the kitchen knife from Aoi Hoshino's hand.
"Please leave it to me from now on."
He said:
"Ms. Solana, there's no need for you to do things you don't like for me."
He said this to Solana, who was not good at cooking, and also to Aoi Hoshino, who hid in Solana's shadow and occasionally peeked out.
This actually surprised Hoshino Aoi.
but……
She pursed her lips and looked at Amuro Toru deeply.
Seeing that he had lowered his head and was seriously preparing the food, she took a slight step forward. Although she did not go directly to the living room to rest as he said, she did not ask to help again.
She really doesn't like cooking much.
Although she is not as skilled as Solana in the kitchen, if she has a choice, she would rather choose the not-so-delicious sushi, bento, and sandwiches in the convenience store than cook a meal that suits her taste.
So the question she asked just now was not really meant to protect Solana's character, but she was really not sure whether it was possible.
Amuro Toru obviously also realized this, which is why he said that.
Aoi Hoshino's eyes were a little heavy.
It seemed like she hadn't heard such words for a long time.
——Do whatever you want to do, and don’t do what you don’t like to do. You are good and you don’t need to change yourself for anyone.
It seemed like she hadn't heard such words for a long time.
Even she herself seemed to have forgotten what she was like in the process of moving forward.
I forgot that I was once the kind of person who would do it if I like it and not do it if I don't like it.
I forgot that at the beginning, I just didn't like being forced by the system to do things, so I didn't want to do what it wanted.
"If I hadn't forcibly bound myself to the host in the beginning, would the host still be so repulsive to me?"
