Chapter 67: Like a Weird Monster
Takajo Chikako pushed the food cart towards the black-haired boy.
In the middle, because there were too many people, two tall men blocked her view.
After the two men had passed, Takajo Chika looked again, and the boy was no longer in her sight.
"?"she.
Takajo Chika stopped and stood in the middle of the road, her pupils shrinking drastically.
It's getting more and more like a horror movie!
Could it be that she was really haunted?
"Excuse me." Takajo Chika asked the guests at a table, "Did you see a boy standing over there just now? He was wearing a school uniform and had no expression. He looked a little scary."
"Huh? I didn't notice."
"have no idea."
"Someone just shouted over there, and we were all looking at him, not paying attention to this side."
"Me too."
"Sorry for disturbing you." Takajo Chikako bowed and continued walking along the route.
When she walked to where the boy was, she looked around but didn't see anyone.
Takajo Chikako looked down at the plate of salmon and suddenly thought of the boy's words in the bathroom: "I will take revenge with my own hands."
She didn't even know him, so it was impossible for her to have any grudge against him.
Did he want this fish dish because... he wanted to stop her from killing that bastard?
That bastard who ruined her entire life.
When she was in school, they always bullied her and laughed at her. After graduation, they went to the store where she worked and told the store manager that using someone of her height would make customers uncomfortable. She almost lost her job...
Takajo Chikako dislikes many people, but she hates Nakagami Kota the most.
That boy named Kazuki Sekizawa... could it be that he has a grudge against Akita Nakagami?
He wants to do it himself... ?
"Takashio, what are you daydreaming about?"
The voice of her colleague brought Takajo Chika back to reality. She smiled and said, "Here I come!"
Chikako Takajo avoided the crowd, poured the fish fillets into a garbage bag, and then threw it into the trash can.
She stood next to the trash can with mixed feelings.
never mind……
Regardless, it was noticed.
I'll find another opportunity next time.
…
"Takajo Chika gave up." Hagiwara Kenji stood behind Takajo Chika and said, "She should have suspected the relationship between you and Nakagami Kota, but she has not confirmed it yet. Giving up the plan to poison Nakagami Kota is also temporary."
"It doesn't matter. Keep going. She'll give up completely."
"Well, I'll go follow Umei Yuki now." Hagiwara Kenji turned around with a complicated expression.
Because of what happened before, I wanted to kill Nakagami Kota. Even though this is wrong, but... on the other hand, Ms. Takajo, how many years has she endured?
The ridicule and strange looks are there every day and everywhere.
Around her, there is also someone like Mei Jingxue who is praised and treated favorably everywhere...
"In fact, such an outstanding height should be something to be proud of," he said softly.
…
"Mr. Nakagami, you're a little late! I know this is your old seat, but I came here several times tonight! I took over the work of other waiters."
The woman wearing a mask smiled and placed the dishes from the food cart on the table one by one: "It's my treat today, so I took the initiative to order a few more dishes for you. I hope you don't mind."
"Haha, Ms. Meijing, you are so polite! I am so honored. Why would I mind?"
"That's good." After serving the dishes, Mei Jing Xue smiled and sat opposite Nakagami Akita: "There are fewer people now, so I can take a break for a while."
"It's really hard work." Nakagami Akita deliberately put his arm on the table, revealing the conspicuous watch.
Mei Jingxue had indeed noticed it. She was a little shocked and asked, "Is this... the new watch that is said to be so expensive that if you buy it, you will go bankrupt?"
Nakagami Akita smiled proudly and said, "It's not that expensive, it's not bad."
"You are really amazing!" Mei Jingxue lifted her hair from her face. Her expression was completely different from when she was in the kitchen. Her eyes were full of admiration and her voice was very coquettish. "I heard Qianxiang say that you were her classmate. I didn't expect that someone like her would have such an amazing classmate."
"Ms. Meijing, please don't compare me with her. Although we are in the same school, I am much better than her in terms of study and family! She is alone all day long and she is so tall. Everyone calls her a 'female monster' in private. She can't make friends at all!"
Nakagami Akita said helplessly: "I am the only one who feels sorry for her and occasionally talks to her."
Mei Jingxue was stunned for a moment, and deliberately said: "But, Qianxiang doesn't seem to like you very much..."
"Yes! That's why I say she is not good on the outside and not good on the inside either!"
"I really misjudged her. She fooled me for so long!"
Mei Jingxue pretended to be a little angry, but after two seconds, she looked at Nakagami Kota in a self-righteous and secretive way, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I asked Mr. Nakagami to meet here tonight because I have something I can't wait to tell you."
Nakagami Kota's eyes flashed with understanding, and he said in a high-handed manner: "Really? If you have anything to say, please feel free to speak up, Ms. Umei."
Mei Jingxue blushed a little, she lowered her head shyly, and stammered: "That... I... I..."
Nakagami Akita looked at her encouragingly.
"I……"
"Oh..." The woman tilted her head and said coquettishly, "I want to go to the terrace to get some fresh air. Mr. Nakagami, would you like to come with me?"
Nakagami Akita smiled and said, "Let's go."
The two of them stood up and walked towards the terrace.
During this time, Mei Jing Xue seemed a little nervous. Her fingers clenched and unclenched, and she kept secretly glancing at Nakagami Akita.
The latter noticed her gaze, which undoubtedly made him even more proud.
It's normal for Mei Jingxue to like him.
He has a distinguished family background, excellent academic qualifications, a stable job, and although not handsome in appearance, his appearance is above average.
However, even if Mei Jingxue confessed to him, he would not agree.
Compared to the women he had been with before, Mei Jing Xue was indeed much more beautiful, but as a waitress, she was not worthy of him.
Although he often comes here just to fish for each other.
"Just now, Gao Tiao came to serve me the food, but I don't know what that lunatic did. He took the food away as soon as it was served." He casually found a topic to talk about.
Mei Jingxue was stunned for a moment, frowning: "I was busy with something very important just now, but I didn't expect that she would sneak back to the East District in just a short while... I'm sorry, Mr. Nakagami, for giving you a bad experience."
"It doesn't matter." Nakagami Akita said magnanimously, "Who would argue with a female monster?"
Umei Xue laughed: "Although it's not nice to say this about Qianxiang, this nickname is really funny."
She turned her head away as if somewhat ashamed, but her attitude was clearly one of contempt.
"Really? I think it's funny too."
As the two were talking, they were already approaching the terrace. As the weather was getting a bit cold, the glass door of the terrace was closed and there was no one outside.
Umei Xue looked at Nakagami Kota's watch and said, "Mr. Nakagami, what time is it now?"
Nakagami Akita raised his hand, his movements very nonchalant, as if this watch was nothing to him.
"It's two minutes to eight."
"Eight o'clock, that's the exact time." Mei Jingxue said happily.
"What's wrong?"
"I prepared a gift for Mr. Nakagami and wanted to give it to you on the hour. I didn't expect it to arrive at the exact hour."
Umei Xue walked forward and pushed open the glass door, and Nakagami Akita walked in.
"Gift?" He smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to it."
The man looked around. The space on the terrace was not big, there were no lights, and it was a little dim.
This unclear light also made him look forward to what Mei Jingxue would say next.
This is the fifth floor. Looking down, you can see the beautiful night view of the city. Looking up, you can take in the night sky with twinkling stars in the distance.
Nakagami Akita couldn't help but feel comfortable. He walked to the edge of the terrace and looked down. "The last time I looked down from here was two years ago..."
Mei Jingxue closed the door and took small steps forward, her eyes unusually bright.
"Mr. Nakagami, I want to say..." The sweet voice softened people's hearts when it spoke.
Nakagami Akita seemed a little bit floating.
He turned around and looked at Mei Jingxue, already beginning to look forward to how she would react when he rejected her.
"Long time ago..." The emotion in Mei Jingxue's eyes suddenly turned cold. She stepped forward in the cool night: "I just want to kill you!"
The bastard who always picks on Chika! The devil!
Go to hell!
Umei Xue suddenly pushed towards Nakagami Kota, but the latter didn't react at all and was still looking at her in shock.
Mei Jingxue had been planning for this day for a long time. She had secretly tampered with the handrail, but in order to prevent accidental injury to the guests, she only completed the last step just now.
If Nakagami Kota bumps into it, he will fall down!!
Umei Xue's expression became excited and expectant!
And at this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm from the side.
Mei Jingxue staggered and was forced to fall to the side, then bumped into a cold, temperatureless body.
It looked more like a corpse than a person.
She looked up in fear—
In the distance, a red light flashed from the signal tower, briefly illuminating the young man's face.
He lowered his head slightly, and his dark and empty eyes fell on her, as if there was an abyss in them.
The brief flash of light turned his skin blood red, making him look like a strange monster.
Mei Jingxue's pupils shrank and she almost screamed.
"I told you not to do anything you shouldn't do."
"Otherwise, I'll come find you."
The familiar voice made Mei Jingxue recognize the identity of the young man when she was on the verge of losing control.
But... at this moment, his voice is different from that time.
Cold, stiff, and lifeless, it seems to be stating facts, but it brings a great sense of oppression to people.
Every cell in my body is screaming, stay away from him! !
Mei Jingxue stepped back in a hurry.
The young man did not stop her, and she successfully retreated.
Over there, Nakagami Kota came to his senses. He ignored the young man who suddenly appeared, and looked at Mei Jingxue, asking sharply, "What did you mean just now?"
Umei Xue felt cold all over, but facing Nakagami Kota's questioning, she sneered: "What do I mean? You don't think I really like you! You scum, I will never forget what you did to Chika!"
She shouted angrily, "Two years ago, you were right here, pointing down and saying that Qianxiang might as well jump down from here!"
"You..." Nakagami Akita looked at her in shock.
"Qian Xiang is my best friend, I've had enough of you!"
