Chapter 13 Me and You Shunran, the Maid and the Missy in the prime of life
Kitagawa Teru never thought that the encounters that happened everywhere in his life could be used here, let alone that the first words he said when he came out of the coffee shop and met his neighbor Rina Toshimaru were like this.

"Beichuan, are you planning to go home?"

Outside the coffee shop, Rina Tosei looked carefully at Kitagawa Che up and down. After noticing the shoulder bag he was carrying, a thoughtful look flashed across her eyes.

She was also familiar with the seat where Kitagawa Che sat in the coffee shop. It was one of the seats rented by Baiyuanchuan Library and was specially used for communication between editors and authors.

Just now, she seemed to have caught a glimpse of Kano Kaoru coming out of the coffee shop.

The situation is clear at a glance.

"Ah."

He nodded in the affirmative.

Before, Kitagawa Che might have considered wandering around here, but the closer to the end of the month, the less he wanted to waste time outside. On the one hand, the skill level on the learning panel needed to be improved, and on the other hand, He still prefers to stay at home rather than wandering around alone.

"I happen to be going home too, how about coming together?"

Rina Toshima looked at Kitagawa Teru. She had been worrying about how to repay the favor of that meal and that treatment. What's more, she still had an unspeakable request that she had always wanted to say, but she had not found the opportunity, and now There was a ready-made opportunity in front of her, and she didn't want to miss it.

"sure."

"Then you wait for me for a moment?" Rina Toshima took out the car keys from her windbreaker pocket and pointed to a parking lot sign not far away, "I'll go and drive up."

After the words were finished, she didn't give Bei Chuan Che a chance to speak, and handed him the handbag in her hand, leaving a sentence of "Help me get it", and hurriedly walked towards the parking lot.

Three minutes later, a silver sports car slid to Beichuan Che's side and stopped. On the car logo in front of the car, the roc with its wings spread was particularly eye-catching.

The co-pilot's window was rolled down and the door was unlocked. Rina Tsugumi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, greeted Kitagawa Che, "Get in the car, Kitagawa."

Looking at Tsugumi Rina in the car, Beichuan Che's eyes flashed a look of surprise, but he quickly recovered, nodded, opened the door, and got in the car.

After he fastened his seat belt, Makoto Tsugumi stepped on the accelerator lightly, and the silver Aston Martin Vantage then drove into the traffic flow and merged into the main road.

Beichuan Che, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned his head sideways and looked out the window.

The street scene that was constantly retreating was reflected in his eyes.

At this moment, the city has not really entered the evening rush hour. The traffic in the lane is not too dense, and the passers-by on both sides of the street are not in a hurry. Most of them are energetic boys and girls, looking through the car window. , and with such a distance, he could only see their mouths moving, but couldn't hear what they were saying clearly.

The only thing that can be heard is probably only the sound of radio music that is turned on in the car, but very softly.

The afternoon sun passes over the city skyline and is refracted to the ground by the reflective exterior glass of the building.

Bei Chuan Che withdrew his gaze and raised his hand to block the somewhat dazzling sunlight.

Slowing down the speed of the car slightly, Rina Toshima glanced sideways at Kitagawa Che who was looking out the window, and naturally started talking, "Speaking of which, Kitagawa, did you go to Baiyuanchuan Bunko to submit your manuscript?"

"How did you know?"

Kitagawa Che turned his head to look at Makoto Tsugumi Rina with some doubts.

"I know Kaoru Kano."

Tsugumi Makoto Rina gave such a somewhat ambiguous answer.

"Acquaintance?"

The doubt in Beichuan Che's tone became stronger.

"Due to some special reasons, I have to go to Baiyuanchuan Library regularly, and this round trip has been going on for a year." Toshimaru Rina shrugged, put her hands on the steering wheel, and there was an extra look on her face. Obviously tired, "No matter how strange he is, if he sees him from time to time, he can be regarded as acquaintance."

"This special reason, can't it be because of work?"

Beichuan Che couldn't help but asked too much.

"You guessed it right, because of a girl who doesn't make people worry."

Rina Toshima sighed and did not elaborate further.

One is that it's inappropriate, and the other is that she doesn't want to complain too much to Beichuan Che. That's not good.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Beichuan Che hesitated for a moment, and said these three words from his mouth.

He couldn't say much about this kind of thing.

The car slowed down slowly and stopped in front of the intersection. In the distance, the countdown to the red light on the traffic light was still for a long time.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, it's a headache to talk about." Rina Tsugumi raised her hand and rubbed her temples. Just mentioning this topic, she felt a headache. She turned her head, forgive He looked at Bei Chuan Che with interest, his beautiful eyes were full of curiosity, "What about you? How was the result of this submission?"

"It's not bad, right?" Kitagawa Che thought for a while. On this issue, he didn't intend to hide the truth, but he didn't think about it and said to everyone, "The result is good."

"Then you should be the second high school student author of Baiyuanchuan Library. Congratulations." Rina Toshiba paused and changed the subject, "But school is about to start, and the follow-up time may be tight."

"Actually, it's not bad. I've finished writing this book anyway." Kitagawa Che smiled, but there was a bit of joy in his eyes, "Without a deadline, it couldn't be easier."

"That's the best. At least you don't have to worry about editors coming to urge you to submit your manuscript."

The red light turned to green, and Rina Toshima slowly stepped on the accelerator.

"By the way, this time I went to the Baiyuanchuan Library, they recommended a new book that will be released soon, and gave me a copy, which is the one in my bag, it seems to be called "Let's Listen to the Wind Sing". "

Speaking of this, Rina Toshima's face showed a little more expectation.

The person who recommended this book was none other than the female student who gave her a headache.

Although the latter's temperament is rather 'weird', every one of the recommended books is quite good-looking. The other party even took the initiative to contact the well-known author of Baiyuanchuan Library and asked someone to write a recommendation for this new book.

"Miss Thrush, are you going to watch it later when you get back?"

Kitagawa Che turned his head, and the subtle expression on his face was reflected on the car window glass.

He suddenly remembered that the synonym for never meeting each other in life is - the world is so small.

"Hmm." Tsugumi Rina nodded, as if remembering something, and added a sentence quite sincerely, "When your book is released, remember to tell me, and I will go and support it a little."

"it is good."

Kitagawa Che's expression became even weirder. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer the next question.

At this time, he can't say that you have supported him.

Just thinking about it made him feel complicated.

"Speaking of which, Kitagawa, do you usually read novels? If so, what kind of novels do you read?" Toshisei Rina paused, "Personally, my taste is quite broad, and I will read all genres."

"I don't usually read much, but the type of reading..." Beichuan Che considered the pros and cons, and decided to divert the topic. If he continued on the previous topic, he really didn't know how to answer it. “There will be more period novels.”

"Era novels?" A series of keywords such as ronin, bamboo hat, swordsman, and ninja came to Rina Toshima's mind. She has not dabbled in many novels in this area. Compared with this kind of subject matter, she is still more interested in it. She likes mystery and novels. She turned her head and asked curiously, "For example?"

"Young Tongran, I, the maid, and the eldest lady were in our prime."

Beichuan Che answered without changing his face.

Japanese period novels focus on writing new stories with ancient times as the background. The protagonists include swordsmen practicing swordsmanship, elusive ninjas, and ordinary civilians. They are close to many martial arts novels he read before time travel.

Then if he answers this question, there won't be much of a problem.

It's just that the name is quite bluffing. At first glance, no one would think of this name in the direction of "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji".

"Huh?" Rina Toshima's eyes instantly became complicated, "Kitagawa, are you sure this is a period novel?"

"Yes."

Bei Chuanche nodded, so why is "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" not a martial arts novel, he just changed the name, and by the way, he twisted out all the attributes of the heroine in the story, and made a rearrangement that he likes to hear.

"I don't think I've heard of it."

Rina Toshima controlled her words and expressed her questions tactfully.

If anyone else had told her that a book with such a title was a period novel, she would have expressed disbelief. But the person who said this was Che Kitagawa, and the expression on his face was extremely sure, without any lack of confidence at all. This made her a little unconfident. Was it because of her ignorance that she really hadn't read it.

"It's normal if you haven't heard of it." Bei Chuanche lowered his eyebrows, his voice subconsciously lowered, "This book is written by an old gentleman from the other side, and it's quite wonderful, but so far, None of them have been introduced yet, only the Chinese version."

But in this world, the old gentleman does not exist, and those works only exist in his memory.

"I see."

Rina Toshima nodded in understanding, then gently pressed the brakes, and the car gradually slowed down.

They have returned to the residential area of ​​Bunkyo Ward.

"Miss Tsugumi, are there any serious problems with your feet?"

Kitagawa Che remembered this incident. Just now outside the Magic Coffee Shop, he noticed her walking posture, and she seemed to have basically recovered.

However, just to be on the safe side, he decided to speak and confirm again.

Even if he is just a barefoot doctor, he has to be responsible for the 'patients' who believe in him.

"No, I have to thank you for this. If it wasn't for you, it might not be better now."

Rina Toshima thanked her very gratefully.

"No, that's not what I mean. I just want to make sure. If you're still feeling a little uncomfortable, I'll help you see it again. If it doesn't work, go to the hospital as soon as possible."

"Oh, I've recovered. There's nothing wrong with jumping around. The only thing is..."

Rina Toshima seemed a little hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong? If you have any questions, just ask."

Kitagawa Teru didn't think much about it. He just thought that Rina Toshima's ankle still hurt a little.

The car stopped in front of Beichuan's house.

Unbuttoning the seat belt, Rina Tsugumi turned her head and met Kitagawa Che's eyes.

As we all know, if strange men and women look at each other for more than seven seconds, they either have a problem with each other, or they have thoughts about each other.

After taking several deep breaths, she finally mustered up the courage to speak out the unspeakable request, "Can I have dinner with you in the future?"

As if afraid of Kitagawa Che's misunderstanding, Tsugumi Rina hurriedly added this sentence, "Of course, I will pay for it! I will also help wash the dishes, and it is definitely not free."

"...?"

Beichuan Che was stunned.

When I put a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, it's that you have a problem.

Rina Toshima, answer me, are you awake? ?
