"Is it okay?" asked Nanatsuki Koshimizu. After all, in Japan, you usually have to take off your shoes when you go to someone else's house.
"It's okay. As you can see, this apartment is very shabby and will be demolished soon." Saegusa explained with a smile: "Even the landlady said I can use it however I want."
Speaking of this, Sanzhi Fengjian extended his hand and said, "Please come in, both of you."
Following Saegusa Kazami into the living room, although the living room was not too big, the old European furniture still emitted orange light, making the whole room look very warm and comfortable.
The oil paintings on the walls, the European-style decorations on the cabinets and the style of the furniture make people feel like they are visiting the home of a European friend.
"It looks like an apartment overseas." Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked around and expressed the same opinion as Karasawa.
"After all, this apartment was originally built by England during the Industrial Revolution for workers to live in." Saegusa Kazami said with a smile, "It's perfect for low-income people like me."
When he talked about being a low-income person, his tone was very calm, without any shame or other emotions, and he remained neither humble nor arrogant.
"By the way, why can't I see the dog from before?" Tang Ze glanced at the doghouse next to the round table and found that the dog's supplies were all there, but there was no sign of the dog.
"Aru has passed away." Saegusa Kazami touched the photo on the table. It was a photo of the golden Aru and a black-haired Shiba Inu.
"I'm so sorry. Please accept my condolences." Tang Ze said embarrassedly. He never thought that the questions he asked casually would hit a minefield.
"It's okay, don't worry about it." Saegusa Kazami put down the photo in his hand and said calmly.
"Ah, is this the study? There look to be so many books there." Just as the atmosphere was becoming awkward, Nanatsuki Koshimizu suddenly looked towards the room behind the sliding door next to her and asked, "Can I go in and take a look?"
"Of course." Saegusa Kazami opened the sliding door, revealing the room inside.
Because only the upper half of the sliding door was transparent, they could only get a glimpse of what was happening just now. But when Saegusa Kazami opened the sliding door, both of them couldn't help but chat inside.
Books, all books.
The bookcases are piled high with books, and the desks are also piled high with books, and it even feels like there is no room for more.
This room is only slightly smaller than the living room, but when you enter it, you feel crowded and even surrounded by books.
"Wow, there are so many books here." Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked around and exclaimed, "That's amazing."
"Even so, half of it was thrown away last year." Sanzhi Fengjian said with a smile.
"These all look like mystery novels." Tang Ze said after looking at the names of the books.
"Well, I have also ordered overseas works that do not have Japanese translation versions from abroad," said Saegusa Kazami.
"Then you can take a look first, I'll make tea for you." Saegusa Kazami said with a smile.
When the black tea was brewed, Saegusa Kazami poured it into cups and handed them to the two.
Taking the tray and teacup, Tang Ze looked at the cup and said uncertainly: "Is this... an antique?"
Although I don’t know much, it’s still no problem to recognize it.
"Eh?" Upon hearing this, Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the cup in her hand curiously. She didn't expect that the cup she was using was actually an antique.
"Don't you feel like you don't look like me?" Saegusa Kazami said with a smile when he saw Koshimizu Nanatsuki's surprised expression.
"No, no, I don't think so." Koshimizu Nanatsuki quickly waved her hand: "It's just that it's my first time drinking tea with antique tea sets, it's a bit novel."
"Haha... After all, my only joys in life are dogs and black tea."
Sanzhi Fengjian smiled and said, "So for this limited pleasure, I still want a higher-end set.
Miss Watson, do you like black tea too?"
"Ms. Watson?" After hearing what Saegusa Kazami said, Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked confused.
"This person seems to be called the modern-day 'Sherlock Holmes' by the Japanese media." Saegusa Kazami pointed at Tang Ze.
"I searched online and found a lot of rumors like this."
Saegusa Kazami said: "Unlike other famous detectives, Detective Karasawa has arrested many criminals for attempted murder.
It can be said that Detective Tang Ze prevented many crimes and saved many victims, which is why he is regarded as Sherlock Holmes by netizens.
"Those are just flattery from netizens, they are not real." Tang Ze smiled embarrassedly.
"So if Detective Karasawa is Sherlock Holmes, then Miss Koshimizu is Watson's assistant," Saegusa Kazemi said with a smile. "I've also seen news about you in the reports. I heard you were a detective before?"
"Ah, yes, he used to be active in my hometown."
Nanatsuki Koshimizu smiled modestly and said, "Later, I realized that I still had many shortcomings. After going through some things, I met Detective Karasawa, and then I was admitted to the Metropolitan Police Department and learned under Karasawa.
Of course, although I like black tea, I've only just started to try it and don't know much about it."
"So that's how it is." Sanzhi Fengjian smiled and looked at Tang Ze, as if waiting for him to express his opinion.
"The black tea brewed this time has a deep red color, and the taste is soft and refreshing, even a bit like green tea." Tang Ze pondered, "Is this made in Japan?"
"Kagoshima black tea." Saegusa Kazami expressed his undisguised admiration: "Mr. Karasawa, you understand the difference between teas."
But after the compliment, Saegusa Kazami's expression changed, as if showing disgust: "I thought all criminals were stupid."
