The car stopped at the courtyard gate. Naoki Kamii looked at the villa in front of him and sighed: "Her family should have no worries about food and drink, why would she do such a thing?"
"Some things can't be solved with money." Tang Ze said meaningfully, then opened the car door and got out.
After getting out of the car, Naoki Kamii rang the doorbell to explain his purpose, and soon he saw Haruko Kitagawa walking out of the house.
"You are..."
When she arrived at the gate of the courtyard and saw Tang Ze, Kitagami Haruko looked puzzled.
"It's you?" Tang Ze showed a perfectly balanced expression of surprise when he saw the other person. "I didn't expect we'd meet again."
"I didn't expect you, sir, to be a criminal." Kitagami Haruko was also surprised. "You said you were a writer before."
"Miss Bei Shen, you misunderstood. I am indeed a writer, and I did collect materials before, but that was just my secondary job."
Tang Ze smiled at Kitagami Haruko's questioning expression and explained, "However, I came to visit you today for business. I just didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I would run into Miss Kitagami again."
Kitagami Haruko said this, but her expression was full of doubt. However, Tang Ze didn't care. As long as things looked okay on the surface, it would be fine.
"Then, what do you want from me?" Kitagami Haruko denied the relationship between them with a puzzled expression on her face.
"You really don't know him?" Naoki Kamii asked again.
"Yes, I don't know him."
Seeing Kitagami Haruko nod in denial, Kamii Naoki couldn't help but smile instead of getting angry, and then he took out two photos from his pocket: "Then how do you explain this?
This is Mr. Manabe, and this is you, right?"
When she saw the photo in Naoki Kamii's hand, Haruko Kitagami's pupils shrank. She ignored Naoki Kamii who was questioning her, and stared at Tang Ze with her beautiful eyes with coldness.
One of the two photos was taken when she and Manabe Iyama were shopping, and the other was taken when they were eating, but the only thing in common was the intimate action.
After seeing the photo, Kitagami Haruko knew that Tang Ze had been eyeing her for a long time, and the previous meeting was just a test for the other party to hide his identity.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be any secretly taken photos of herself dating Manabe Iyama.
“Hehehe…”
Kitagami Haruko burst out laughing, "I'm really impressed that you guys could secretly take a photo like this."
"So you still plan to keep it a secret?" Naoki Kamii asked.
"At this point, hiding is pointless."
Kitagami Haruko smiled and said, "Before, I just wanted to avoid causing trouble for him. After all, we were in that kind of relationship before, so it would be easy for people to gossip about us, right?"
"That's right..." Naoki Kamii was about to ask something, but was interrupted by Haruko Kitagami: "So if you two are here to find out about Mr. Manabe, I have nothing to say."
"No, we asked you to come here because of something important."
Karasawa immediately told the other party about Mr. Manabe's death.
"Really? Mr. Manabe passed away..." Kitagami Haruko lowered her head and showed no emotion on her face. She just murmured softly.
"If you two don't mind, how about coming to my house for a visit?" Seeing that the two were about to continue asking questions, Kitagami Haruko took the initiative to invite them.
"Is it okay?" Tang Ze asked politely.
"Because I hate being questioned about my relationship with him in a place like this."
Kitagami Haruko replied with a cold face, obviously still upset about Tang Ze having someone take secret photos of her, and she spoke without any hesitation.
However, Tang Ze naturally would not get angry because of these words. He just smiled and did not respond. Seeing this, the other party snorted lightly and then opened the gate of the fence and took the two of them into the room.
The villa was decorated in European style. The two of them looked around and sat down on the sofa.
"We've been dating for about half a year. To put it simply, it's an affair."
It seemed that when they got home, the other party was very frank when talking about this matter. Without waiting for the two to ask, he directly took the initiative to admit the relationship: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"
"I heard that you met at a dance party?" asked Naoki Kamii.
"Yes."
Kitagami Haruko answered as she asked the two to sit down.
"What kind of dance is it?" asked Naoki Kamii.
"It's a social dance. He's a member and I'm the hostess." Kitagami Haruko replied, "It's just a part-time job."
"Who is the organizer?" Tang Ze asked.
"It seems to be called "Seven Days Meeting." Kitagami Haruko thought for a moment and replied.
"That's right..." Tang Ze nodded to show that he understood, but his eyes were cast on the photo frames hanging on the wall of the living room.
There, most of the photos were intimate photos of Haruko Kitagami and a middle-aged man, and a few were photos of the other person himself. Judging from the background, they should be souvenirs of his travels.
"Is the man in the photo your father, Miss Beishen?" Tang Ze asked directly after noticing the man in the photo.
"That's right." When talking about her father, Kitagami Haruko's dissatisfaction with Tang Ze seemed to disappear, and the smile on her face was not false or artificial at all.
"Looking at the photos, it looks like he's traveled all over the world." Tang Ze exclaimed with a smile, "That's amazing."
“My father is a botanist.”
Hearing Tang Ze's praise, Kitagami Haruko seemed very happy and excited: "Because of work, I often go abroad. I went out again yesterday."
