Chapter 26
The mangoes, which cost 200,000 yuan each, are cut into beautiful shapes and sizes, ensuring that every bite is full of happiness.
The TV was still broadcasting news about Mount Fuji, and Sugawara Yoshiyo leaned on the sturdy cushions to read the information.
"Is this a new mission?" Zenin Shinji asked lazily, resting his chin on his bare shoulders. He picked up the remote control beside him and changed the channel. The TV series starring the new and popular idol Hayami Reika was currently on the air.
"It's a commission that was not completed before, and it came up again recently." Sugawara Yoshiyo said. She looked up and was attracted by the male lead wearing rimless glasses.
"Shin'er, am I seeing things right?" Sugawara Yoshiyo said hesitantly, "Didn't a black mark in the shape of a gecko flash across that guy's face?"
"It's not an illusion, I saw it too." Zenyuan Shen'er showed a disgusted expression. He couldn't imagine what it felt like to have something moving across his skin.
However, compared with the beautiful women and handsome men on TV, Sugawara Yoshiyo's words are obviously more attractive.
Zenyuan Shener looked at the man and woman in the picture, who looked about the same age as them and had bright smiles on their faces. "Is this another missing person mission?"
"Well, but these two are special," Sugawara Yoshiyo said, "This couple is a doctor who studies drug development. They were declared dead in a car accident a few years ago, but that's not the case."
"What do you mean, fake death?" Chanyuan Shen'er was very curious about this suspenseful task.
Sugawara Yoshiyo nodded. "Anyway, it's very mysterious. And according to the information I found, after the couple's accident, their research results were completely sealed, and the pharmaceutical company went bankrupt."
In fact, Sugawara Yoshiyo was not only looking for these two people, but the death of this couple and the stranded soul happened to be connected with the previous mission and were recorded in the file of the stranded soul Karasuma Renya during the Taisho period.
Sugawara Yoshiyo was very interested in and had a good impression of this wealthy man who had somehow escaped death, because when she was poor and destitute in the past few years in this world, she would go to the real estate of the childless wealthy man to take out some gold bars and antiques to cash in.
At first, Sugawara Yoshiyo felt embarrassed, but later he came to terms with it because it was tiring to make money due to the economic recession. After all, even if he supported a hundred people, he would not be able to make the richest and most mysterious tycoon in Japan half a century ago go bankrupt.
Of course, as for the Death Office, Sugawara Yoshiyo's explanation was that this method was used to actively attract the attention of the stranded souls, and it was a strategic plan to lure the snake out of its hole that required a long-term operation.
Anyway, Sugawara Yoshiyo wasn't going to stop this until Karasuma Renya herself jumped in front of her to protest.
Yoshiyo Sugawara felt that she really shouldn't think about work during her rest time, because after reading the message from the Miyano couple, new work came up.
Matsuhito Takayama died at the age of 22 due to murder by members of a gang. He suffered internal organ rupture and excessive bleeding due to lack of timely medical treatment and died in an abandoned warehouse in Tokyo. His soul is missing.
Sugawara Yoshiyo pulled up photos of young people: a babbling baby, an elementary school student wearing a yellow hat, a smiling face holding the national competition trophy in junior high school, and a group photo after high school graduation.
Sugawara Yoshiyo flipped through the pages and saw a photo of Takayama Matsuhito wearing a police academy uniform and posing with his parents at the police academy gate.
The boy in the photo is only in his teens, his face still a bit childish but his eyes are firm and full of faith in the cherry blossom badge in front of him.
There is no record of graduating from the police academy on Takayama Matsuhito's resume. Due to some minor frictions, he left the police academy to go out into society and then joined a secret organization, and had no contact with the past.
This huge difference in life experience made Sugawara Yoshiyo guess that perhaps she knew where Takayama Matsuhito's soul was.
Zenin Shin'er was still wanting to spend some time with his girlfriend when he noticed that Sugawara Yoshiyo was walking towards the balcony with a phone. He could only hear words like "order, size, hurry up". Since Sugawara Yoshiyo liked online shopping, he didn't care much.
Until a large package was delivered, Sugawara Yoshiyo waved at him mysteriously: "Come here quickly, I have a big treasure to show you."
When the box was opened, it was not the high-quality ingredients and seasonal fruits that I had imagined, but...
Zenin Jiner looked at the perfectly sized uniform and raised an eyebrow: Jiashi said it was once a month, but she was still enjoying it and felt the pleasure: "Do you want me to change it now and show you?"
"Try it on first. Any parts that don't fit need to be altered as soon as possible. After all, you'll be wearing it out often in the future." Sugawara Yoshiyo nodded.
A question mark appeared on the face of Zenyuan Shen'er, who was holding the clothes:
After changing clothes, Zenin Shiner looked at his girlfriend wearing women's uniform and realized that his thinking was wrong.
After tying his tie in front of the mirror, Chanyuan Shener looked at himself in the mirror and asked: "Why do we have to dress like this?"
"Because the new mission requires us to infiltrate the police academy to investigate." said Yoshiyo Sugawara.
"Where are you sneaking in?" Chanyuan Shener felt that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Infiltrate the police academy," Sugawara Yoshiyo repeated as she placed the hat on Zenin Jiner's head. After admiring him for a few seconds, she offered him a carrot. "According to the course schedule I got, there will be three shooting classes and trace investigation classes in the first week of enrollment."
Chanyuan Shen'er was a little tempted. When he beat up the black police before, Chanyuan Shen'er thought about finding a place to learn some specialized skills after getting the wood warehouse. Of course, it would be better to go to the police academy, and it would also save some money on bullets.
"What should I do?" asked Zenyuan Shener.
"I will get the written test questions and forge the academic qualifications in advance, but there are some problems with the background check," said Sugawara Yoshiyo.
Zenyuan Shener recalled the days when he lived in Zenyuan's house, touched his neck and muttered.
The longer he stayed away from that garbage dump, the more Chanyuan Shener wanted to completely separate from the Chanyuan family, including this unlucky surname.
Zenin Jiner thought of his adopted brother Sugawara Kohakushu, who had joined the Sugawara family household, and touched his chin: "Jiashi, I have a good idea that will solve this problem once and for all."
Sugawara Yoshiyo looked at the man beside him, and the young man smiled brightly: "How about I join the Sugawara family as well?"
This time it was Sugawara Yoshiyo's turn to be puzzled. Thinking of the happy time last night, she asked cautiously: "Shin'er, do you want to be my legal brother or adopted son?"
This sounded like it was full of forbidden excitement, and after pondering for a moment, Sugawara Yoshiyo suddenly felt that she could give it a try.
"You're really bold." Zenin Shin'er reached out and pinched the cheek in front of him, feeling the soft touch and gently shaking it, as if trying to shake away the dirty trash in Sugawara Yoshi's mind. "If you join the household registration, you will have another identity, right?"
Sugawara Yoshiyo was stunned for a moment: "Marry into the wife's family?"
"Is Jia Shi dissatisfied with me in any way?" Chanyuan Shen'er asked with his head tilted. He knew that he was pretending to be confused and a bit unreasonable, but the person in front of him probably wouldn't care.
"I just think that for someone who comes from a big family, he might find it difficult to accept and a violation of male dignity to marry into another family," said Sugawara Yoshiyo.
Sugawara Yoshiyo's answer was very similar. Zenin Jiner could feel that his self-esteem was being protected from the careful wording. Perhaps only the woman in front of him would care about these insignificant emotions about him.
"It's not anyone else, it's Jia Shi." Zenyuan Shen'er corrected this sentence and lay on the floor with his girlfriend in his arms.
The kisses went from the forehead, cheeks, nose tip to lips. Chanyuan Shener skillfully put his hand into the hem of her clothes and rubbed the skin on her neck. He started to act coquettishly without any instruction: "Jia Shi, don't you want to give me your last name?"
Rubbing her hard black hair, Sugawara Yoshie looked at the man lying beside her who made her really happy and followed her heart: "I do want to, but——"
"But what?" Their noses touched, and after asking this, Chanyuan Shener simply blocked out the rest of the words.
Sugawara Yoshiyo wanted to say that she was very traditional, and the man who married into her family must be loyal to her. Even if she returned to the other world one day, he would hold her photo and remember her for the rest of his life.
However, looking at the man in front of her, Sugawara Yoshiyo thought rationally and felt that it would be impossible for a pretty widow to remain chaste for love. Zenin Jiner was more like the type who would lick his wounds and hang out with other women before her Sunday festival was over.
A sweet and fishy taste spread in her mouth as she felt pain on the tip of her tongue. Sugawara Yoshiyo realized that this was Shi'er expressing his dissatisfaction with her distraction.
"Jia Shi, what are you feeling guilty about?" Chan Yuanshen asked lightly, wiping the water stains off the lips of the woman who turned away with a guilty look on her face.
"I was thinking, you look particularly handsome in this uniform," Sugawara Yoshiyo tried to get away with it with a kiss, "but as a proposal, it's too ceremonial."
Chanyuan Shen'er was silent for two seconds, then took out a heart-shaped velvet box from his pocket, looking a little unnatural.
Sugawara Yoshiyo sat up straight. The red velvet box with a bow on it looked very unfamiliar. It was not something she had stolen from a gang, but a gift she had prepared with great care.
"I passed by a jewelry store last night and fell in love with it at first sight." Chanyuan Shen'er spoke more and more smoothly, and the discomfort and awkwardness he had felt completely disappeared.
The commercial street was full of couples. When Chanyuan Shener passed by a jewelry store, he saw someone buying a wedding ring. The man was very particular and said that he would take out three months' salary in the hope that his wife would agree to his proposal. The tired monkey had a happy smile on his face and said that he hoped to start a new life with his lover.
That is the expectation and happiness of marriage, which is something that Zen Yuan does not understand at all.
But if he were to ask who he longed to live with, the figure of Sugawara Yoshiyo would appear in Zenin Shinji's mind.
They are now lovers, and establishing an intimate relationship with Sugawara Yoshiyo makes Zenin Shinji feel a kind of spiritual satisfaction. His emotions can be responded to and his desires are no longer clamoring and are satisfied.
Zenin Shinji knew that he could get everything he wanted in this intimate relationship. All those tedious and trivial needs and interactions could be provided by Sugawara Yoshiyo, giving him a sense of belonging.
The worst luck that could have happened to this kind and generous woman was probably meeting him. Chanyuan Shener thought so in his heart but was unwilling to let go.
This close relationship gave Zenin Shinji a sense of crisis, because his lover had an interesting life and was very busy with work, and she didn't seem to need to rely on him for spiritual satisfaction and recharge. Even if they broke up one day, Sugawara Yoshiyo would only feel uncomfortable for two days, then dispel the loneliness and regain her energy on her own.
Zenyuan Shen'er doesn't want to become an irreplaceable person. During a certain time when they are extremely close and at a negative distance, Zenyuan Shen'er will try to grasp her completely more greedily and embed her into a fate that makes Zenyuan Shen'er hate it so much but cannot deviate from it.
The jewelry store was playing an ideal, utopian wedding jewelry advertisement. Thinking of this, Chanyuan Shener walked straight to the largest diamond display counter, ready to make the next very important choice.
Although I was mentally prepared, I was still surprised when I saw the teardrop-shaped, bean-sized diamonds inside.
The size of the ring was exactly the same as her ring finger. The man in the police uniform knelt on one knee on the ground and looked at her with a pious expression.
It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment proposal; it was premeditated.
Sugawara Yoshiyo wanted to ask this guy if he knew that marriage, unlike dating, requires more maintenance and responsibility, but the words seemed meaningless when they came to her lips:: Both of their parents are not around, and because of their past experiences and social relationships, they don't need so much social maintenance.
Sugawara Yoshiyo's thoughts drifted far away for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she realized that the man who was holding his breath was still waiting for her answer.
