Congratulations You Are Under Arrest!

Chapter 94 Accidents During the Journey

Is Tokugawa Kurito visiting Hokkaido on business?

In the Hoshino Resort Hotel, Higashinohara's first reaction upon hearing the news was. Is there something going on in Hokkaido recently?

But when he thought that the other party was in a high position, he used to run around Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya and Nagoya when he was in New Tokyo.

It's not a big deal to meet.

Good morning, Higashino-san.

Good morning.

But when they were having breakfast in the hotel cafeteria, for some reason, many of the girls in the same class and even the girls in the next class met naturally and greeted Higashinohara a little shyly.

what's the situation?

Higashinohara will not deceive himself, he knows very well that his appearance condition is not bad in this life, it seems a bit modest to say so.

It should be quite outstanding, thriving, and it is understandable to attract bees and butterflies.

But before that, although the girls around him occasionally turned their eyes to Higashinohara, there were not many cases where they greeted him shyly and timidly like today.

Higashinohara didn't know that it was a girl's reserved heart not to say hello before, and casually greeting a strange boy would give people a sense of frivolity.

But yesterday afternoon when he encountered an episode at the ski resort, so many girls gathered to help him stand in line. Although some talked, many did not, the girls felt that everyone had shared weal and woe together. Naturally, it is a bit closer, and it is no longer unfamiliar.

Without that layer of psychological barrier, it would not be necessary to say hello when meeting each other.

Although I didn't expect anything to happen to say hello, the latter politely responded with a handsome smile like the warm sun in winter, and just looking at the mood can make me happy all day.

The breakfast seats were random, Higashinohara sat by the window with a plate, and Nishimaru Miri sat opposite him and ate the children's set meal in small bites.

After a while, Yoshito Aida, who was upstairs, also carried a plate and moved a chair over to sit in the aisle. The early morning sun reflected the white snow and reflected through the window, giving people a clear feeling between heaven and earth.

At this time, the morning news was broadcast on the Hokkaido local station on the LCD screen in front of the cafeteria.

The following is a news about a village on the outskirts of Tarkov Fort, the capital of Shayash.

When the female anchor said this, she paused, and a set of pictures of the scene appeared on the screen. Gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the ruins of the broken walls were scorched black.

At this time, the voice-over with some sad and indignant tone on the TV followed into my ears.

According to the latest reports from our frontline reporters, the Shayash Grand Duchy, which was recently announced to be disintegrated, was in constant turmoil. A village was attacked by an unidentified team of heaven and man. The property in the village was plundered, and the elderly and the weak were slaughtered.

Seeing this news, many students of Takehara South Academy in the cafeteria couldn't help being a little stunned. Although there have been vicious terrorist incidents in Wano Country, there has never been such a rampant and serious incident.

It's just that the people present had just experienced a terrorist attack at the school not long ago, but they all had some lingering fears, and for a while, everyone couldn't help but talk in a low voice.

Some people are angry at those slaughterers who have lost their conscience, and some people feel that they are lucky not to be born in a country full of turmoil and chaos.

Higashinohara listened to the discussions of the people in his ears. Except for the fragility of life, he didn't have much emotion in his heart. In his opinion, the Wano country in this world was not much better.

After breakfast, the squad leader, Yuka Hamada, took the phone call as usual.

After all the people from the two classes gathered, the group took the shuttle bus to Chaoli Railway Station according to today's schedule, and took the slow train to Otaru.

As the name suggests, a slow car is a relatively slow car.

This kind of train makes many stops along the way. It stops when you see the station, and the speed is naturally not fast, but it is very suitable for tourists who come out for sightseeing and travel, and is affectionately called station station music.

Chaoli is a small village near the sea, which is somewhat similar to Koshimizu Town, Shari County, the hometown of Higashinohara.

The small houses by the sea are all colored, and there is a fairy tale feeling that makes children like Nishimaru Miri marvel. After they entered the station, they simply rested and got on the train on the platform.

Following the prompt of the train announcer in his ear, the platform outside the window receded like a rewind. Higashinohara plugged in his earphones, and the colorful low-rise buildings on the side of the road quickly flashed before his eyes.

Nishimaru Miri sat quietly opposite him. The little girl was holding a painted fairy tale book called The Ranking of Kings. I heard that it has been very popular recently. It tells the story of a little prince.

She looked attentively, the pale golden bangs on her forehead swayed slightly, and the clear morning light from the car window sprinkled on Higashi Yehara's side face, giving an inexplicable feeling of comfort and laziness.

But the atmosphere didn't last long.

After a while, it was broken by a few boys in the uniform of a certain school in Sapporo in the seats across the aisle of their car.

It was a row of four-seater seats facing each other, with a small folding table in the middle for placing sundries.

Among the two people sitting next to each other, the short boy with a scar on his forehead suddenly grabbed the hair on the back of the head of the tall man with eyes, pressed it on the small table without any hesitation, and pulled out a piece from somewhere. The iron piece gently slapped the other's tense profile face.

I remember I said that you should bring some money for this school trip, right? But you didn't listen to me at all. Five thousand yen. What do you mean? Do you look down on me?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I really have no money. Yesterday, my sister found out that I stole money and told my mother. All the money in the family is hidden. I'm sorry I can't find it.

Hey hey hey! Don't always say sorry, it's like I'm bullying you.

The two boys who were sitting opposite to each other, who looked like they were in the same school, were laughing and pointing, echoing something from time to time. The three of the four were obviously a small group.

This kind of slow train journey is very noisy. Everyone in the carriage is chatting and chatting, especially in this carriage where there are many girls, and no one notices what is happening here in the noise.

Bullying among classmates?

Higashinohara showed a thoughtful look.

This scene couldn't help but remind him of the bad Sagi Hikari trio in the class, but unfortunately he and his two younger brothers didn't participate in the school trip this time, otherwise he would be able to compete with the three in front of him.

However, although Higashinohara claimed to be justice driven by interest, the scene in front of him was obviously not within the reach of his justice, so he shook his head and continued to close his eyes for sleep.

He is not a student of this school, and it is impossible to cut down the grass and roots like a criminal. Even if the encounter during the trip is now managed once, the boy will only suffer intensified revenge after he leaves.

Fortunately, the group didn't seem to be too much.

Seeing that he couldn't make any money, he calmed down after a while.

Higashinohara squinted in the sun, and shook his head at Nishimaru Miri, who was sitting beside him with his small head tilted and glanced over from behind the fairy tale book. The latter nodded sensible and retracted his gaze.

When he saw that there was nothing left and right, his consciousness was immersed in the [Sin Manual] and continued to practice the sword inside the skull to improve the proficiency of the two swords of the small sword.

Now he has reached the advanced level of 30/100. Although he is still a long way from the master, this cannot be achieved overnight, and it still has to rely on a little bit of water grinding.

Nishimaru Miri next to her saw that Higashinohara closed her eyes and took a nap. It was cold in Hokkaido. She lightly took out a small blanket from her backpack and put it on Higashinohara's lap, and found that Higashinohara was not disturbed. With a sweet smile on her face, she lowered her head and continued to read her storybook.

Before I knew it, forty minutes had passed, and it was almost noon. Today, according to the plan, we should take a bus to Otaru for lunch.

Higashinohara opened his eyes and rubbed his sullen eyelids. He was too tired to exit the image space of the Guilty Book. He actually fell asleep. At this time, he couldn't help but smile when he saw the fluffy blanket over him. .

This little guy is quite sweet.

Um?

But where did she go?

Higashinohara looked around in the aisle with some doubts, but did not notice the little guy Nishimaru Miri, and was stunned when he glanced over to the seats opposite.

The four boys were gone.

Higashinohara frowned slightly, stood up and was about to look for it, but at this moment, Nishimaru Miri trotted over from the aisle in front of the carriage.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The little guy is too young, even if he is a dual talent ability, after all, his wings are not yet full, so it is not so reassuring.

Miri, have you gone to the bathroom? Higashinohara smiled and sat down again.

Nishimaru Miri's small face was a little tense, as if something happened, she walked to Higashinohara's side and did not climb into the seat, but pulled Higashinohara's big hand instead.

The latter leaned down slightly.

Nishimaru Miri approached Higashinohara's ear and said very worriedly, Big brother, the front bathroom door can't be opened, I am.

What's the matter? Are you in a hurry?

Higashinohara looked back and forth, and happened to be in the back aisle with a few boys sitting next to each other, who seemed to be coming from the bathroom of the back car, and asked casually:

Would you like to change the carriage?

Nishimaru Miri shook her head vigorously, glanced secretly at the boys behind her, and said in a low voice, No, no! I seem to see blood and the smell of blood in the crack of the door on the ground.

Is there blood in the crack of the door?

Higashinohara frowned when he heard the words.

Did you open it?

I didn't open it.

Come on, I'll accompany you to see.

Higashinohara stood up and took Nishimaru Miri, and the two stood up and walked forward.

The three men who came from behind just sat down and saw them stand up and move forward. Two of the boys seemed to be a little nervous, and the short boy with a scar on his forehead glared at them fiercely.

The two quickly avoided sight.

At this time, the short boy looked at Higashinohara who was walking forward with Nishimaru Miri again, an unknown light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he greeted the three and stood up again.

In the bathroom in front of the car.

Higashinohara also saw the bloodstains between the door, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, and lightly patted Nishimaru Miri, who was clasping himself nervously with his small hands.

The next moment, he pushed open the door.

Bloodstains!

There are bloodstains all over the place!

The one who fell in the pool of blood was the tall man with glasses who had just been bullied next to him.

At this moment, the lens on his face was cracked and blurred, the clothes on his chest were blood red, and the other glasses under the mirror that could still be seen were round, and the dilated pupils were full of fear and unwillingness to die.

what!

Nishimaru Miri, who was behind him, glanced curiously and exclaimed, and then Higashinohara covered his eyes - it's best for children to avoid these kinds of things.

At this moment, the train was still banging, but Higashinohara was in trouble.

at this point.

He wasn't quite sure if he should go through the program right now, should he shout something like Help someone is dead like in a midnight drama.

However, someone seemed to see the plight of Higashinohara, only to hear an ear-piercing man screaming suddenly from the aisle behind him!

Help! Someone killed someone!

Higashinohara actually noticed that someone was coming in the back compartment, but he didn't expect that the other party could see the bathroom from that angle, and went through the procedure very neatly.

Wait someone kills?

But when he heard what the other party said, Higashinohara couldn't help but frown slightly.

He turned to look out of the bathroom, and saw the face of the short boy with a scar on his forehead in front of him, and the faces of the two boys who followed were full of discordant horror.

The three behind may have thought that Higashinohara should panic.

Think about it too, on a peaceful train, you pushed open the door of the bathroom and found a corpse lying in a pool of blood,

Normal people should be a little panicked.

But what they didn't expect was that Higashinohara in front of him had a very calm face, and he didn't seem to be flustered by the corpse in front of him.

On the contrary, when the other party looked at them, it seemed like he was looking at a group of clowns with poor acting skills, and the short boy with scars on his forehead suddenly felt a squeak in his heart.

But something seemed to come to mind in his mind. He calmed down a bit, and increased his screaming voice again.

Soon, he attracted the surprised eyes of countless people in the front and rear carriages, as well as the attention of the police officers on the train, and everyone who stopped talking gathered around.

After half an hour.

The train stopped at a platform called Touma-cho during the journey. Most of the passengers on the train, mainly students from Takehara Minami Private Academy, and other passengers were blocked and stayed at the station.

Fortunately, this kind of train is originally a slow train for sightseeing, with a slow speed and many stops. There are also temporary stops in the middle to let the car, but this time it encountered such an accident.

What's the situation? Dongye murdered?

What nonsense! Higashino-kun is so handsome, how could it be possible to kill someone?

That's true. But I see that the police officer seems to have found the murder weapon in the bag that Higashino-kun was carrying. It was a piece of iron.

It hasn't been authenticated yet, maybe it's framed and blamed.

That is, is the boy with the scar on his forehead a witness? Why does he look so fierce?

.

In the inquiry room of the police station in Touma-cho.

The short boy with a scar on his forehead was named Hang Imai. At this time, he was leaning on the back of the chair bored, playing with his phone with his head down, and occasionally glancing at Higashinohara, who had a calm face across from him.

When he lowered his head to look at the phone again, a haze flashed in his eyes. Does this guy really know nothing of fear?

Just like that damn guy.

money?

Do I miss you that money?

Damn it!

Why are you not afraid of me!

Suddenly, two men in black formal suits hurried into the interrogation room. After entering the door, they did not look at the suspect, Higashinohara. Instead, they bowed their heads slightly and came to Imai Hang.

Sorry sorry! It's been a long wait.

Imai Hang raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two of them, and said neither light nor heavy, It's been a long time.

He put away his mobile phone and said to the two, My transcript has been completed, so I can go now.

Of course you can, if you please. The two said with a slight bow.

Higashinohara watched the scene in front of him with a cold eye, and felt a little clear in his heart.

It turned out to be a son of power.

Are there any high-ranking officials surnamed Imai in Hokkaido?

Hmm. Thinking of the news I read when I came here, the mayor under the Governor of Sapporo seems to be Yuta Imai.

Is it the son of the local second-in-command? !

Imai Hang glanced at Higashinohara when he got up, sneered, turned and walked towards the door of the inquiry room.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the figure where Higashinohara was located gradually dimmed, and then Imai Hang's figure flashed in front of him, and a figure was already blocking the door.

what are you doing?

It's the capable one!

Imai Hang was stunned when he saw this.

The two men in black formal suits who had just entered the door looked solemn.

Higashinohara shook his head and stared at Imai Kando calmly, You can't leave.

Why don't you let me go?

Imai Hiroshi reacted from the initial brief confusion, looking at Higashinohara with a somewhat unkind look, Those who are capable still want to do whatever they want at the police station?

How could he have never seen a capable person from such a background, and Higashinohara's hand naturally couldn't scare him.

The two men in black suits seemed to be capable people, and they held Dong Yeyuan from left to right, and one of them said sternly, Student, think about it clearly, if you start with us here, you will attack the police. If you can get out of the murder charge, you will be detained.

I won't fight with you.

Higashinohara said softly, I just want to keep him.

why?

The other person asked subconsciously.

Because... he is the murderer.

Higashinohara looked directly into Imai Hang's irritable eyes, and his tone was very flat, as if he was stating something as normal as the sky is blue and the sea is salty.

While saying these words, the [Guilty Manual] flipped in Higashinohara's mind.

【Name: Air Imai】

【Race: Human】

[Talent Ability: None]

[Evil value: 1 and a half stars]

[Character image profile drawing (click to open)]

[Randomly selectable tasks: capture or remove Imai Hang, who bullied and killed a classmate by mistake. If the task is successful, you can immediately obtain an ability or skill, and obtain a reward of sin value attributes]

Any doubt requires evidence.

But Higashinohara's suspicions do not require evidence.

Imai Hang was very angry at this time. He roared at Higashinohara with a grim face, What nonsense are you talking about?! Are you spitting blood? We all saw you standing beside the corpse, and the police officer in the car was also with you. The murder weapon was found in the bag.

Higashinohara glanced at him calmly, and suddenly asked, There is no surveillance in the bathroom, but when I wanted to ask, did you really see the body in the bathroom from that position and angle?

Why are you screaming and screaming so quickly if you don't see the body?

Where did you go during the time of the victim's death? Does your usual relationship with the victim stand up to investigation?

And... the most crucial point.

Higashinohara stared at Imai Hang's neck and shook his head gently, If I wanted to kill someone, I wouldn't use such a clumsy method.

Imai Hang was a little dazed by Higashinohara's series of questions, and his face couldn't help but be stunned.

This guy just wants to take the opportunity to escape! Quick! You catch him!

There were only four of them in the interrogation room of the police station.

The two looked at Higashinohara, and then at Imai Hang, and they connected with some rumors, although they already understood a little in their hearts.

But remembering the background behind Imai Hikaru, they looked at each other and sighed inwardly.

Sorry, classmate, please go back to your previous seat.

Higashinohara nodded when he heard the words, returned to his seat, and said gently, Yes, but he must be here too.

Imai Hang suddenly felt a fire in his heart when he heard it!

In this one-third of an acre in Sapporo, there are still peers who dare to challenge him!

Damn it!

These guys really don't take themselves seriously!

Just because he is an illegitimate child?

But does the old guy have another son?

Do you think I'm a suspect like you? I've finished the transcript of the cooperation, and I'll leave the rest to you. Don't let me down.

Imai Hang finished speaking quickly, turned around and walked out.

The two stood in the middle, their eyes fixed on Higashinohara.

Tonohara sighed softly.

Why bother.

Um?

The two were a little stunned when they heard the words.

Unexpectedly, a shadow flashed in front of him. Although they were also the first-stage power users of the fourth stage, they were not speed-related at all, and they couldn't stop Higashinohara, who was in his early 40s with agility today.

Crunch-!

Just hear a bang!

Imai's leg bent instantly, his body suddenly lost his balance, and he fell to the ground with a miserable cry.

The figure of Higashinohara appeared beside him and looked at Imai Hang calmly.

He has no sympathy for bullying, bullying, or even murdering his classmates, even if it is manslaughter.

He doesn't attack the police.

He only keeps those who should stay.

Imai Hiroshi, who was lying on the ground, was suddenly severely injured, his sore snot and tears almost came down, and he yelled at the two of them fiercely with red eyes:

You! Are you watching? Beat him to death! Beat me to the death! What happened to my dad!

Higashinohara couldn't help but glanced at Imai Hiroshi with some surprise. To be honest, no matter in his past or present life, he never understood the brain circuit of those second-generation idiots shouting My dad is XX.

The two men in black formal suits were also dumbfounded.

They are the fourth-order power users of the Toma Town Police Station, which is equivalent to the strongest combat power of the local police station, but the young man from the outside seems to be not too easy to provoke.

do not care.

It is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress a local snake.

You can't always blame both.

One of the two is a flesh system ability, and the other is an elemental ability. When they come up vigilantly, they will use their abilities to work together to capture Higashinohara.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there were footsteps and familiar voices of conversation outside the inquiry room.

I could vaguely hear the old fritters from the Toma Town Police Station saying something with a smile on his face, It's okay, you're too polite, you have nothing to worry about with me.

Oops!

To make the director's old fritters so respectful, did the mayor of Sapporo send someone here? If you see the mayor's son like this, I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to eat and walk around.

In a daze, the door was pushed open, and the old chief of the Toma Town police station walked in.

Seeing the two super-powered guards attacking Higashinohara in a dagger, the old director couldn't help but be stunned. The next moment someone stepped in from behind.

He hurriedly stepped forward and scolded, What are you doing? Are you extorting confessions by torture? Are there any rules? Do you still speak the law?

Um?

The two super-power guards were stunned for a moment.

What happened?

The next moment, the two turned their heads and saw a tall figure with a majestic and resolute face walking in, with short chestnut hair like a gorgeous crouching tiger descending from the mountain. Here comes the chilling breath.

Unexpected!

The two recognized each other immediately.

It's Team Leader Tokugawa!

In fact, as long as it is the official power user of the country of Wano, there are not many who do not know the Tokugawa Kurito who created the power organization structure [third investigation team] of the official power user of the country of Wano.

What's more, Tokugawa Lihu and Hokkaido have some very close origins, which makes the ordinary people of Hokkaido also have a good impression of this national weapon of Wano country.

At this time, beside Tokugawa Lihu, he was holding a little girl with delicate and lovely pale blond hair in his hand. It seemed that it was the girl who followed Higashinohara just before being brought into the police station's interrogation room.

and many more!

Wouldn't that say.

Does the boy in front of him know the Tokugawa team leader?

The two super guards were dumbfounded.

They only know that strong dragons don't overwhelm the snakes, but they didn't expect such a maroon-colored crouching tiger entrenched behind the other side. You should have said it earlier, bro!

After entering the door, Tokugawa Kurihu's eyes swept over Imai Hang, who was kneeling and howling miserably, and Higashinohara, whose face was calm next to him, and patted Nishimaru Miri's small head next to him, and that majestic and resolute face was rarely revealed. smile.

I just said, your big brother is fine, believe it now.

Mmmm! Nishimaru Miri showed two small dimples on her face.

She just saw that Higashinohara was taken away by the police, she was worried, and immediately called Tokugawa Lihu, who was on a business trip in Hokkaido, and Tokugawa Lihu came very quickly.

At this time, Tokugawa Kurito beckoned behind him.

A mixed-race human wearing a windbreaker with a wavy collar and blue-purple eyes walked out quickly from behind, with long golden wavy hair and bangs on the front of his forehead, and walked in with a smile on his face.

Interrogation? I'm good at this.

The person who came is the captain of the sixth division of the third investigation team, Miyano Juro, who is the master of the talent Sequence 41 [Magician] ability.

When Higashinohara saw Miyano Jurou, he vaguely felt a little familiar, and then he remembered that he seemed to have seen him from a distance outside the villa of Sigmund Exhibition once.

Next, a crippled eyewitness, Imai Nai, entered the interrogation room.

Not surprisingly, the terrifying pressure given by Miyano Juro, a psychic capable of the sixth-order peak, in the interrogation room quickly caused Imai Hang almost to explain the XP system of his mayor father-in the bathroom compartment today. Everything that happened was quickly restored as it was.

The tall-eyed man who had been bullied for a long time was named Sota Funamachi. After being blackmailed, he was afraid of what trouble he would encounter on his school trip. He wanted to leave a good memory for his school trip, so he looked around for friends. borrow money.

Unexpectedly, this angered Imai Hang.

As the mayor's son, even if his father was clean, how could he really be short of money.

What he needs is reverence,

Like others fear his father.

And Funamachi Sota really borrowed money from classmates and friends, which was undoubtedly an insult to Imai Hang, and it was a bit heavier to start.

But what really made him lose his patience was Funamachi's stupidity.

In the bathroom of the train, even if the other party was beaten to death and his glasses were broken, he still begged him to borrow some more because he thought he didn't have enough money, and he still didn't know what he really wanted.

So he was angry!

result

That is, the opponent was killed by his mistake.

After the incident, Imai hurriedly cleaned up the scene, left the bathroom, and deliberately called someone to go to the bathroom in the next compartment.

As for slandering Higashinohara in the middle, it was purely an ingenuity that coincided with the meeting.

Of course, it turns out that his inspiration was tantamount to suicide

Have you eaten lunch yet?

A few minutes later, after exiting the Touma Town Police Station, Tokugawa Kurihu glanced at Higashinohara with heavy eyebrows, lowered his head and smiled at Nishimaru Miri who was holding his hand.

The latter nodded earnestly.

The people from the two classes in the surrounding Takehara South Academy looked at the figure of Tokugawa Kurito with awe. He was a seventh-order absolute ability, and he was also a high-ranking person.

For a time, everyone envied the luck of the fishing village boy Higashinohara, and actually met Nishimaru Miri in advance. With such a background, after graduating, in New Tokyo, he was backed by a hard and thick backer. Why didn't he do this? luck?

Although I don't want to disturb your school trip, I'm here. Let's have a light meal together. Tokugawa Lihu said with a smile, I know that there is a ramen restaurant nearby that tastes very good, and I will regret not eating when I come to Hokkaido.

Higashinohara nodded indiscriminately. He found Taitogawa Asuka to ask for leave, and Taitogawa Asuka was also very good at talking.

Although she is a famous family in New Tokyo, she still has no arrogance in front of a powerful person like Tokugawa Lihu, not to mention that the other party is a rare seventh-order absolute ability in the country of Wano, who has stayed in the seventh-order for many years. Heaven will be able to break through the seventh rank and become an eighth rank demigod.

The majestic and resolute face that often appears on TV can be said to be the important weapon of the country in the hearts of the general public, and a very important strategic talent in the country of Wano.

During the meal, Tokugawa Lihu also waved back his subordinates, and he can be responsible for his own safety.

The group of three walked for a while along the path by the sea, and after about seven or eight minutes, they found a small ramen restaurant on the slope of the coast.

That's it. Tokugawa Lihu's thick black eyebrows stretched out.

Dad, have you been here before? Nishimaru Miri couldn't help looking up and asked.

Higashinohara couldn't help but feel a little curious when he saw the appearance of Tokugawa Lihu just now.

Tokugawa Lihu was stunned when he heard the words. After a while, he nodded with a sense of disappointment, I've been here before, but the owner of this ramen shop has changed.

With the words in his mouth, Tokugawa Lihu had already opened the sea-blue curtain at the door and walked in.

The furnishings in the ramen shop are very old and the area is not large, but the dozen or so seats are full of people, including local regular customers and tourists from other places. Higashinohara and the others found a four-seater seat in the corner.

Soon, a young girl who was not pretty but looked very diligent wore a white chef hat on her head, trotted over with a menu and a kettle, bowed and said hello, set the bowl and poured the water in one go.

When the young girl went back, Higashinohara glanced at the back kitchen separated by the curtain. There seemed to be no one else in it, so she couldn't help but wonder, Is there only one person in this store?

Tokugawa Lihu took a sip of water from the cup, put it down and said with a smile, This store has always been one person, just a different person.

Speaking of this, he looked at the young girl in the back kitchen, his eyes seemed to be looking at a figure that seemed to be similar, and the majestic and resolute lines on his face softened a lot.

Soon, the side dishes and three bowls of noodles came together.

The ramen of this shop looks very simple and simple, far from the tableware and appearance of those ramen restaurants in New Tokyo.

But the noodles are chewy and chewy, giving people a feeling of vigor and vitality like the sea, no wonder Tokugawa Lihu said that this restaurant tastes good.

Tokugawa Lihu eats with a military flavor. He slashed his legs and sat on the bench, picked up a side dish and stuffed it into his mouth, and then picked up the noodle bowl and ate the noodles.

After a while, Higashinohara and Nishimaru Miri, who were sitting across from him, only moved a few chopsticks, and Tokugawa Kurito had already started drinking soup—the speed of eating was second only to Charlie among the people Higashinohara had met.

Mmmm, Xia Li should have finished her soup by now, shouting for the boss to have another bowl

Soon, Tokugawa Lihu also put down the soup bowl.

Higashino thought that the other party would have another bowl, but Tokugawa Lihu took out a rather delicate handkerchief from his navy blue windbreaker and gently wiped the oil stain on the corner of his mouth.

Seemingly aware of Higashinohara's gaze, Tokugawa Lihu smiled and said, The person who gave me this handkerchief once told me that good things can't be eaten at one time, or they won't feel so good next time. After eating, what do you think of Higashino-kun?

Small taste and stop, the water will flow. Dong Yeyuan said.

A helpless smile appeared on Tokugawa Lihu's face, I'm a rude person, but I don't understand these truths, but the person who gave me this handkerchief is more fierce, and this kind of trivial matter can only be heard by her.

Nishimaru Miri sucked and slipped into a piece of noodles, raised her head and asked, Dad, who are you talking about?

Tokugawa Lihu kindly reached out and touched Nishimaru Miri's small head, and said, It's my wife, your mother, she died seven years ago.

Speaking of which, Tokugawa Lihu seems to have opened the chat box:

She is from Hokkaido and was born in a haenyeo village. She opened a ramen restaurant here more than ten years ago. She has a bad temper. When I married your mother, many people called me 'Hokkaido son-in-law'. Oh, by the way, her cemetery is near the seaside, do you want to come and see it with me after dinner?

Yeah!

Nishimaru Miri nodded vigorously.

Higashinohara looked at the Tokugawa Kurito who was caught in the memory, and his face was a little curious. What kind of woman in Hokkaido can make such gorgeous tigers entrenched?

At the same time, he was also a little puzzled. Tokugawa Lihu was in his prime forty years, and his wife should not be too old. What was the reason for her death seven years ago? sick?

After eating ramen at the noodle restaurant, Higashinohara followed Tokugawa Kurito and Nishimaru Miri on foot for a while before arriving at the cemetery of a village by the sea.

Tokugawa Lihu should come here every year. The three of them circled around in the cold cemetery for a while, and soon stopped in front of a tombstone.

On the black headstone is a photo of a short-haired girl with hair cut to her ears.

I have to say that a woman who can make Tokugawa Lihu linger and miss her so far doesn't seem very amazing at first glance, but her quiet facial features are as clear as the blue sky and the sea, and the more you look, the more pretty you can see. Beautiful feeling.

Ayase Yui.

This is the name on the tombstone.

After a moment of silence, Tokugawa Lihu said, This is your mother's tomb, and the sea girl is the daughter of the sea, so I held a sea burial for her according to her wishes.

Nishimaru Miri turned her head to look at Higashinohara behind her, Higashinohara nodded slightly, the little girl wisely gathered up the courage to kneel in front of the tomb, her face full of seriousness:

Mom! I am my father's daughter now. I will take good care of him when he is old in many years, and I will visit you often in the future.

Hearing Nishimaru Miri's serious words, Tokugawa Kurito's hard and dignified face loosened slightly, and he showed a relieved smile under the breeze of the sea.

He gently pulled Nishimaru Miri from the ground and touched her little head.

Higashinohara knew that Tokugawa Lihu was usually busy with official business, and he had a rare opportunity to come to Hokkaido several times a year, so the former Nishimaru Miri said, Miri-chan, go there for a while with big brother, and let father and mother talk for a while. OK.

Mmm Good.

Nishimaru Miri nodded her head.

Higashinohara took Nishimaru Miri away from the tombstone, and the two did not hang out in the cemetery, but just waited at the exit.

About ten minutes later, Tokugawa Lihu walked out of the cemetery.

At this time, several black cars arrived at the entrance of the cemetery at some point.

Tokugawa Lihu walked out with a smile on his face, lowered his head and said to Nishimaru Miri kindly, Dad just received a call from Tokyo, there are still some things in Hokkaido that I need to take care of, I will send a car to see you and your classmates later. Confluence, I will play with you when I have time to deal with these matters.

Yeah, Dad's words are the best! Miri knows. Nishimaru Miri nodded and said crisply, turning around and climbing into the black sedan next to her.

Higashinohara was about to follow, but the voice of Tokugawa Kurito came from behind.

Higashino-kun, please wait. He stared at Higashinohara who had stopped and turned around, and said with a smile, I'm busy with work, so I'll trouble you to take care of Mili during this time.

Yes, Miri is my sister. Higashinohara said.

Tokugawa Lihu smiled when he heard the words, but he didn't take advantage of Dongyeyuan for nothing, just said, By the way, in order to express my gratitude, I have a gift for you. You can get to Hokkaido in a day.”

You're welcome. Tonohara said.

I hope you will like it. Tokugawa Lihu smiled.

In front of the seaside cemetery.

Nishimaru Mili waved goodbye to Tokugawa Lihu on the car window, and met to see you soon.

Soon, the black convoy split down the hill and headed for two different roads.

At the end of the month, ask for a ticket!
