The Witch's Taste

Chapter 24 Have I Seen You

On the passenger seat of the taxi, Hoshino Norika kept looking at the rear mirror to see if she was being followed.

After all, "Maki Kiritani's agent secretly enters and exits the detective agency" is also a lace news that many entertainment tabloids like.

Ashiya Yu and Chen Ziang sat in the back row, both staring at the phone thoughtfully.

"Wife, I don't think I'll go back to eat today." Ashiya Yu edited the text message sent to his wife, "I'm going to Sanhe District in the afternoon, maybe I can find a place nearby to solve it."

"Yuegong, don't be arrogant." Chen Ziang edited the message sent to Yuegong Suzuna, "Even if your family can solve the problem of suspension, this thing will stay in the file, and it will have an impact on your future promotion."

Soon, Ashiya Yu took care of his wife and started watching short videos.

Chen Ziang has never been able to deal with Yuegong Suzuna.The girl said that she had arrived at his house and was helping him take care of his younger sister Xiaozhu, and she was still beating around the bush to find out his location.

Maki Kiritani's current address is located in the famous riverside apartment in Sanhe District. It is said that the people who live here are rich and powerful, and Maki Kiritani lives in the top-floor mansion with the best lighting. It can be seen that this big star's worth is absolutely Not low.

Chen Ziang searched the Internet for photos, only to find out that Kiritani Maki is actually a half-elf.

Her mother is a human being, and her father is a Meneus, so Kiritani Maki in the photo has splendid blond hair, deep facial features and slightly pointed ears, but the beauty and gentleness of a human woman can also be seen in her eyebrows and eyes.

In addition, Ms. Hoshino Norika did not exaggerate. This Kiritani Maki has won various music awards since her debut five years ago. Now she is well-known in the music industry of the entire Takamahara Star District, and has a high probability of becoming a national treasure-level musician... ...The industry's evaluation of her is not a singer, but a musician, which shows her high status and weight.

After arriving at the Riverside Apartment, Hoshino Norika took the two of them through the security inspection, and then entered the private elevator.

"Here is a reminder." She said solemnly, "Although Kiritani Maki is very talkative, it does not mean that you can harass her with various questions unscrupulously. The content of the inquiry is strictly limited to the business of this trip. , don’t ask any other unnecessary questions. If you want her autograph, I’ll give you a few after it’s over, don’t ask her directly for it.”

"Miss Hoshino, don't worry." Ashiya Yu raised his hand and said, "Actually, I'm not a fan of Miss Kiritani."

"I've only listened to her songs, and I haven't reached the level of a fanatic." Chen Ziang also quickly expressed his attitude.

For some reason, although Hoshino Norika didn't say much, her originally unfriendly expression seemed to get worse.

After the elevator door opened, the lobby was outside, and Kiritani Maki was standing at the door to greet her.

Seeing Manager Hoshino Norika and the two strangers, she showed a gentle smile:
"Hi everyone, I'm Maki Kiritani."

"Hello." Chen Ziang and Ashiyayou hurriedly greeted her, feeling quite flattered, "I'm Chen Ziang/Ashiyayou."

Even without makeup, the big star looks even more beautiful up close than in the promotional photos.

Smooth to shoulder-blade long blonde hair with pointy ears protruding from the hair in a tiny spot.

The eyes are deep and charming, the eyelashes are long and curved, and the iris is a beautiful azure blue, like a pure plateau lake without impurities.

The bridge of the nose is straight and handsome, and the lines and outlines are obviously different from those of human women, which shows that she has foreign blood and adds a lot of exotic charm to her.

The lips are also rosy and full, with a hint of charm, but they don’t look flirtatious when matched with other facial features—it can only be said that this face is a typical example of God’s reward, even if Kiritani Maki doesn’t have any musical talent, go to be an idol It can also be a big fire.

This big star is wearing casual clothes, which are obviously very loose, but she actually wears them with a protruding front and back. Isn't this guy really an abyss succubus?

"Please sit down, both of you, I'll pour tea for you." Kiritani Maki was still distributing paper cups, and Hoshino Norika next to her couldn't bear it anymore (there should be a limit to being approachable), and took the cup from her hand:

"I'll pour tea, you tell them about your latest nightmare, that's why they're here."

"Oh." Kiritani Maki sat down on the sofa, scratched her brilliant blond hair, and then said seriously, "Actually, it's nothing, I just always dream that I'm dead, and it's the kind of hopeless, hopeless Die nostalgic and tragic."

Chen Ziang and Ashiya Yu were stunned for a moment, and they turned their heads to look at Hoshino Jixiang who came over to pour tea.

Is this what you call optimism?World-weary optimism, huh?

"You didn't tell me!" Hoshino Norika said in horror, "Maki, you...don't you have nostalgia for this world?"

"No." Kiritani Maki said with a smile, "That's just a dream, and I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would worry."

"Forgive me for asking." Chen Ziang said suddenly, "What kind of 'no nostalgia'? No nostalgia, that is to say, the original nostalgia was 'lost', right? Is it the music career I love? ?”

"No." Kiritani Maki was a little astonished, and said after a while, "Well, it should be a beloved person... or something like that?"

"Maki?" Hoshino Norika turned pale with shock.

"Sister Ji Xiang, don't be nervous, I'm not in a relationship." Kiritani Maki couldn't laugh or cry, "It's just a dream."

She was silent for a moment, then looked at Chen Ziang again and said:

"But I... can feel that he is the most important person in my life. And his death directly destroyed all hope in my life, so I chose to end my life."

"Maki wakes up from her sleep crying every night." Hoshino Norika also added distressedly, "As long as she wakes up crying, she won't be able to sleep at all, which will have a great impact on her state."

"Has this person appeared in the dream?" Ashiya Yu also asked for confirmation.

Kiritani Maki shook her head:

"The content of the dream is basically that I choose to die in various ways. Apart from this, no other person appears. I can only feel his existence from the inner emotions before death."

"I see." Chen Ziang and Ashiya Yu looked at each other for a moment, then nodded.

It sounds like an ordinary dream, but it fits many characteristics of spiritual pollution.

The next step is to open the inspiration and browse around the house.

Ashiya Yu had no hope for this, because last time he brought his assistant here to check it out, but Kiritani Maki himself was not at home, and he didn't find anything weird.

He talked to Kiritani Maki, and then went to check the bedroom first.

Hoshino Jixiang quickly followed, because there may be some private things in the bedroom, even if they go out, they can be sold at a high price on the black market.Although there is no loss to the parties involved, it still has to be watched after all.

So only Chen Ziang and Kiritani Maki were left in the living room.

"Miss Maki." Chen Ziang asked tentatively, "If you don't mind, I'll go to the study where you usually work first to check..."

"Xia Zili." Kiritani Maki said suddenly.

"what?"

"My mother is from the Lu tribe, not from the island tribe." Kiritani Maki said sincerely, "So I am also from the Lu tribe just like you. My mother's surname is Xia, and my name is 'Zi Li'. Kiritani Maki was given to me by the brokerage company." stage name, they feel that being a mixed-blood islander is more beneficial to my career development."

"Ah, oh, I won't say it, thank you for letting me know." Chen Ziang was about to get up when he heard Kiritani Maki, who is also Xia Zili, suddenly asked hesitantly:
"That...Mr. Chen Ziang, although it may be strange to say that, but..."

She slightly opened her azure eyes, revealing a sense of confusion, hesitation, and bewilderment:

"Have we met before?"
