Chapter 281 The Angel Among the Devil Asking for Monthly Tickets ()
Sayuri Matsumoto was just telling two cute students about the interesting stories about her childhood sweetheart.
Seeing the person she was talking about came in, she hurriedly gestured to Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran, asking them not to tell anyone else what they had just heard.
The bride didn't pay attention to Takasugi Toshihiko at first, but she was not unhappy, but relieved instead.
He took the opportunity to pick up the half-drunk lemon tea of Sayuri Matsumoto, and while complaining, "Why do you always drink such a cheap drink?", he secretly threw the sodium hydroxide he had prepared in advance and an empty capsule into the jar.
——Sodium hydroxide is used for poisoning, and the empty capsules are used to confuse the time of poisoning and to provide an alibi for oneself.
…
After giving instructions to the two students, Sayuri Matsumoto turned around and saw Takasugi Toshihiko's back. She then looked at the drink he had put back on the table and was silent for a moment.
She hesitated for a moment, then walked over as if nothing had happened, picked up the lemon tea while talking to Takasugi Toshihiko with a smile.
Touching the wall of the cup which was a little hotter than before, her heart, which had originally held a glimmer of expectation, suddenly sank.
In this on-and-off relationship spanning twenty years, Sayuri Matsumoto knew much more than Toshihiko Takasugi.
When they met again in college, Sayuri Matsumoto discovered that Takasugi Toshihiko was probably the neighbor boy she liked very much back then.
So she secretly investigated what happened twenty years ago - she didn't ask Takasugi Toshihiko directly because she was afraid that it would be embarrassing if she recognized the wrong person.
As a result of the investigation, not only did they find out that Takasugi Toshihiko was her childhood sweetheart, but they also discovered the accident that led to the death of Takasugi Toshihiko's mother.
With several things in front of her, combined with Takasugi Toshihiko's subtle attitude, Matsumoto Sayuri vaguely guessed the real reason why Takasugi Toshihiko was with her.
After knowing these things, Sayuri Matsumoto did not break up with him. Instead, she kept thinking about how to make Takasugi Toshihiko let go of the "hatred" from twenty years ago.
A while ago, after she agreed to Takasugi Toshihiko's proposal, she originally wanted to arrange a police and gangster stage play incorporating current affairs, in order to subtly tell Takasugi Toshihiko that her father did not stand by and watch the person die, but simply did not see the woman in the blind spot.
But she didn't expect that Takasugi Toshihiko hated her so much that he wanted to kill her.
…
At this time, a staff member passed by the door. The man ran over and then came back: "Mr. Takasugi is here - it's almost time, please get ready." After that, he hurried away again.
Takasugi Toshihiko was startled. He didn't expect the wedding to start so soon. This way, Sayuri Matsumoto would have no time to drink the beverage, and the poison he put in would also...
"Don't worry." Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard Sayuri Matsumoto say, "You go first, I'll be there soon."
Takasugi Toshihiko always felt that his fiancée's attitude at this time was a little unusual, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
In the end, he had to think that he was wearing glasses that made him feel guilty, so he felt that there was something wrong with everyone he saw... Thinking of this, Takasugi Toshihiko nodded, and went out with Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.
…
After the footsteps outside the door left, Sayuri Matsumoto looked at the cup of poisoned lemon tea in her hand. Her eyes changed several times, and finally slowly settled on "I don't want to live anymore."
She moved closer to the straw, trying to down the drink.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden click from the window behind him.
Sayuri Matsumoto was startled and turned around suddenly, only to see a little boy clinging to the window. The child seemed to want to get in from there, but unexpectedly the window was locked.
The child climbing the window was much younger than the students she taught. Judging from his age, he seemed to have just started elementary school. He was wearing a scarf that covered his neck. Even in the hot summer, he still looked cool.
When Sayuri Matsumoto saw the person in the window, she no longer cared to continue sipping her drink sadly. She walked over quickly, opened the window, and carried the child into the house.
Just as she was about to ask whose naughty kid this was, before she opened her mouth, Matsumoto Sayuri was suddenly startled.
——Isn’t this room on the second floor?! And the first floor here is very high, so the windows on the second floor are naturally opened very high... How did a child climb up to this height?
Jiang Xia saw her shock, and he picked up a random topic as an opening remark: "There is sodium hydroxide in your cup of lemon tea."
Matsumoto Sayuri's eyes flashed with doubt, but soon she remembered that the child might have been hiding outside the window and saw Takasugi Toshihiko poisoning her, and her doubts faded away.
She touched the cute child's head and sighed softly: "I know."
Sayuri Matsumoto actually had a lot to say at this time, but thinking that it was somewhat inappropriate for children, she finally swallowed her words back.
She was just trying to find someone to take the child to meet his parents, while she continued to drink the bitter lemon tea alone with the sad BGM.
However, at this moment, the child in front of her reached into his pocket and suddenly took out a small blood bag and handed it to her: "Here."
Sayuri Matsumoto took it subconsciously, and then a "?" popped up above her head.
"It's a blood bag for the play. I stole...borrowed it from the stage staff." The child looked at her calmly, his eyes clear but bottomless, as if he had seen through everything. "You want to drink the poison, right?"
Sayuri Matsumoto was silent.
Jiang Xia looked at her, recalled the lines Xiao Bai had written in the script, cleared his throat, and recited: "Theoretically, I don't recommend you do this - there seem to be some misunderstandings between you that have not been resolved. Whether you feel guilty for your father, or are simply disappointed with the groom and then the world, taking poison is too hasty."
Sayuri Matsumoto listened in confusion as a primary school student spoke to her these lines that were too long for a child. She felt something was wrong, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity to interrupt.
The child ignored her hesitation and continued in a steady tone: "You can think of this blood bag as a regret pill - only by actually experiencing it can you truly see the consequences of doing so and avoid a bleak future.
"Otherwise, if you really take poison and die, and the other party regrets it, one of you will end up in a cemetery, and the other in prison... Is this the result you want?"
To deal with the unreasonable love brain, you have to choose the right method.
Sayuri Matsumoto now wants to take poison on her own initiative, and words like "go to the graveyard" may not be enough to stop her from seeking death.
But if a "repentant Takasugi" were dragged into the picture at this time, her determination to take poison would collapse.
First interrupt her death wish bar, then you can follow Xiaobai's script...
