Chapter 65 Published

…

"Welcome!"

The waiter who was wiping the table heard the door open and spoke subconsciously.

She looked up and saw a familiar-looking person coming in.

The orange light fell all over his body, the boy's black hair was messed up by the wind, one corner of his shirt was lifted up, and he walked in with a bag in one hand.

His expression was calm and cold, like the silent night.

The waitress was dazed for a moment, but then the boy came closer. Although he was taller than her, he lowered his eyes and avoided looking at her, which made her come back to her senses.

"Is it the same today, Mr. Guan Ze?" asked Mei Jing Xue.

Sekizawa Kazuki has been here for a few days now, and she finally understands why Suzuki Sonoko reacted that way after she told her about Chikako's misunderstanding that day.

Suzuki Sonoko was right. Although he looks very aloof, Sekizawa is actually a person who is not very good at communication and just goes with the flow.

In other words...it's easy to bully.

The reason for this conclusion is that once, Umei Yuki hurriedly gave the food ordered by the next table to Sekizawa Kazuki.

After she reacted, she thought that this seemingly cold boy would be angry and scold her, but when Mei Jingxue walked over, she saw that he was sitting upright, staring at the wrong meal, and didn't move for a long time.

Even though it was inappropriate, Mei Jingxue almost laughed.

She quickly stepped forward to apologize, and received a relieved "thank you" from the other party.

--"sorry."

--"Thank you."

This conversation is very confusing.

But it made the two strangers feel more familiar with each other.

From then on, whenever Guan Zehexi came again, as long as Mei Jingxue was free, he would deliberately go to receive him, so as to prevent this taciturn classmate from feeling uncomfortable under the attention of other colleagues.

"Yes." said Kazuki Sekisawa.

"Are you still alone?" Mei Jingxue asked, "Are you not with Xiaolan and the others?"

Sekizawa Kazuki nodded.

"Okay, there are still a few single tables available, come with me." Mei Jingxue smiled and said in a gentle voice.

She walked inside and Sekizawa Kazuki followed her.

Mei Jingxue passed by several empty seats and walked all the way to the back before stopping and explaining, "It's quieter here, so it's more suitable for you."

Guan Zehexi nodded slightly: "Thank you."

"Please sit down. I'm going to get busy." Mei Jingxue said and was about to leave, but as soon as she took a step, she was stopped by the boy.

This is really a rare thing.

She looked up in surprise, her beautiful almond eyes filled with doubt: "Classmate Guan Ze?"

Sekizawa Kazuki's eyes were still as calm as before, but they gave people a sense of intimidation as if he saw through everything.

Mei Jingxue's smile froze. "What's wrong?"

"Wearing a mask, do you have a cold?" he asked.

Mei Jingxue was stunned for a moment before she responded, "It's a little... not serious, but in order to prevent infection to the guests, I still wore a mask."

"Please take care of yourself."

"Thank you for your concern."

This time, when Mei Jing Xue walked forward, Guan Ze Hexi did not hold her back.

But after she took two steps, she suddenly heard the boy's voice behind her with a hint of coldness:

"I've been watching you."

That's not the tone that Kazuki Seki should have.

"Don't do what you shouldn't do."

"Otherwise, I'll come find you."

It wasn't something he could say.

Mei Jingxue felt a chill in her heart. She turned around and saw the boy holding up a cell phone with the screen glowing.

From Mei Jingxue's angle, she couldn't see the contents of the phone clearly, but the boy was sitting upright with his head down, and the corners of his lips, which usually had a dull expression, were slightly raised.

It didn't feel like I was talking to her, it felt more like I was on the phone.

Is this the tone you use when making a phone call?

Is this a warning to your younger brothers and sisters at home?

But even though I was confused, it still felt a little weird to go up to him and ask if he was talking to me.

Mei Jingxue pursed her lips, turned around and walked quickly to the backstage.

…

"I've been watching you."

"I'll come find you."

Hagiwara Kenji leaned against the dining table, pushed up his sunglasses, and said in a handsome and professional tone, "These two lines are classic lines from horror movies. Komiyagawa, you can't go wrong if you use them flexibly."

Miyakawa Ling sat down, unable to hold back a smile on his face: "Are you imitating Matsuda? Where did you get those sunglasses?"

Hagiwara Kenji knocked him: "Stop laughing! Say your lines!"

Miyakawa Ling took out his cell phone and asked, "Kenji, do you often watch horror movies? Do you know so much about them?"

"I'm very busy at work, how can I have time to watch it?" Hagiwara Kenji crossed his arms: "But, that idiot you enslaved does have a lot of time. I went there several times and he was watching horror movies."

The unlucky guy who was enslaved by him?

Miyakawa Ling: "Vodka?"

"It's this code name. I thought I was a code name member after all, and I would be able to learn something by following him... But he spent at least two hours every day watching horror movies."

"..."Miyagawa Ling.

He thought of the questionnaire he had asked Vodka to fill out.

Isn't this all filled in? Vodka is still working so hard, what are you still looking at?

While distractedly thinking, Miyakawa Ling said what he should say.

After Umei Yuki left, Hagiwara Kenji followed her in a swagger and walked away together.

No one could see him, but he could share the information he saw with Miyakawa Ryo in his mind at the first moment.

Since this mission has nothing to do with the "main storyline", you can say whatever you want without any restrictions.

"The simplest understanding of 'ghostly' is to make people think you are like a ghost."

"There will be no problem if we follow the three steps we set." Hagiwara Kenji said, "I'm a little curious about what the system's reward will be!"

"Me too."

Miyagawa Ryo was also curious about the system's rewards.

Judging from the tone of the system, the reward will be something extraordinary... Miyagawa Ryo hopes that he will be luckier and get something like "you can choose one of three options yourself" or "the existence of the system can tell certain designated people".

"I see, another target, Chikako Takajo." said Kenji Hagiwara.

…

"The guests at table three are asking for more, Gao Tiao."

"OK."

Takajo Chikako was pushing the food cart outside when she ran into Umei Yuki who was coming in.

"Xiaoxue, is it okay for you to come to work even though you have a cold?" asked Takajo Chikako.

Mei Jingxue smiled, her sweet voice was a little hoarse than usual, but still made people feel happy: "It's okay."

She glanced at Takajo Chikako and asked, "Where are you sending this to?"

"The one in the east has been waiting for a long time."

"I'll go." Mei Jingxue put her hand on the dining cart. "To be honest, it's a bit stuffy inside the restaurant. There's a terrace on the east side, and the air is a little better. I want to take a breath there after finishing my meal."

She whispered, "You know, it's not good to just slack off!"

Takajo Chikako let go after two seconds: "Then go ahead. There are more people over there, be careful."

"Don't worry, you can help me deliver these orders." Umei Xue and Takajo Chikako exchanged jobs and pushed the food cart outside.

Takajo Chikako looked at her back quietly, her eyes unclear.

"Takajo! What are you doing? You're blocking the road!"

"Oh! Yes!" She quickly turned around to make way and got down to work.

"Really? It's the busiest time of the day, why are you acting like a fool, not knowing how to work!" The person who came in complained, "The manager has kept you here, you should at least contribute, don't always let people call you a fool!"

"Yes!" Takajo Chika said, "I'm so sorry!"

She walked out of the kitchen. There was a lot of noise outside and the temperature was lower than in the kitchen, but it made people feel even more suffocated.

Chika Takajo bent her waist slightly, lowered her head, and pushed the food cart to serve food to the area where Miyagawa Ryo was.

When she saw Miyakawa Ling, she smiled and said, "Enjoy your meal."

Regarding the last incident, Takajo Chika has already apologized to Miyagawa Ryo.

Miyagawa shook his head.

Takajo Ueka didn't want to talk to him any more. After finishing her meal, she walked to the next table. But just after she took two steps, someone called her.

"Yo! Takajo!"

Being called out in front of so many people, Takajo Chikako froze for a moment, then she turned her head naturally and said with a smile, "Hello."

"You're beautiful today too!" The man was sitting in the middle of a group of people. "Where's Xiaoxue? I seemed to see her wearing a mask just now. Is that okay?"

"Mr. Tsuku, thank you for your concern. Xiaoxue is fine. I'll go get busy first." After saying this, Takajo Chikako nodded and walked away quickly.

The man who stayed where he was just smiled and didn't call her again.

"Senior, do you know that tall waiter?" someone at his table asked.

"yes!"

"And 'Xiaoxue', the very pretty waitress with the sweet voice? Mr. Tsukuni, it sounds like you two have a very good relationship!" Someone chuckled.

Jin Jiuren smiled and nodded: "We are very familiar with each other!"

"That waitress named Umei Yuki is really pretty. I heard that many people come to this restaurant just for her! It's a pity that although beautiful women are sweet, they are hard to chase! Senior Tsuku, you are still amazing!" Another person looked at Takajo Chika's back and shook his head:

"But, senior, when you just praised this waitress for being pretty, were you trying to make her happy? She can't be called pretty... and her height is taller than many men."

The reason why this person dared to say this was because Tsu Hisahito's way of addressing Umei Yuki was obviously more intimate, and he did not show any displeasure when someone just called Takajo Chika "very tall" just now.

I guess Takajo Chika is just someone he maintains a superficial relationship with in order to pursue Umei Yuki.

Tsukuhito laughed and said, "What else? I can't do such a rude thing as calling a woman ugly! Although to be honest, Takajo Chika is much worse than Xiaoxue..."

On the other side, Takajo Chikako, who was walking far away, still heard the two words. She walked to the kitchen with a smile on her face, put down the food cart, and turned into the bathroom.

The moment I closed the door, tears welled up in my eyes.

In fact, she didn't need to listen to what they were saying; just by hearing their laughter, she knew what was going on.

They were just laughing at her height, her looks... and comparing her with Mei Jing Xue.

He calls her "Takatiao", and when he calls Mei Jing Xue, who he is also not familiar with, he deliberately uses a more intimate tone, as if having a good relationship with the other party is a big deal and he wants to show it off to the whole world!

Takajo Chikako turned on the faucet and kept scooping water to wash her face, mixing her tears with the running water.

After a moment, she looked up and looked at herself in the mirror.

After watching for two seconds, she suddenly punched the sink!

"Isn't it just that I'm taller and not as pretty as Xiaoxue? What's wrong with me?"

"Yeah, what's wrong with that?"

The sudden response made Takajo Chika's angry expression freeze. She wanted to turn back in panic, but before she could do that, she saw a figure standing behind her in the mirror.
