Chapter 273
"You can do this!"

After closing her eyes and savoring the tamagoyaki made by her best friend, Hoshino Ai opened her eyes and looked at Rina Tsugumi in surprise.

She had eaten the food cooked by Rina Toshima before.

It's just that at that time, Rina Toshima's talent and proficiency in cooking were still... To put it mildly, she had a promising future. She was in an ascending stage of development, and the dishes she made must have a thoughtful taste and thoughtful appearance. .

That meal is still fresh in her memory. It was a meal she rarely left unfinished after developing the habit of saving food since she was a child.

It was also from that time that she decided that if it was not necessary, Rina Tsugumi must not be allowed to cook, and even if it was cooking, it would have to be done by herself, a half-assed person.

Even if the level of cooking is not high, compared with Makoto Makoto Rina, he still has the capital to be proud of.

——At least the rice she cooks can be eaten, and it can be guaranteed that it is cooked.

"Hmph." Rina Tsugumi, who was waiting for her best friend's evaluation, put her hands on the dining table and snorted proudly. For her, her best friend's praise at this time is a reward for her hard work in the past few months She raised her eyebrows, "What's this called? It's called Shibie Three Days."

"That's what it is." Hoshino Ai nodded sincerely, "But..." She paused, changed the subject abruptly, and blinked, "Rina, you really learned it at your little boyfriend's house. Cooking?"

This rate of progress cannot be said to be exaggerated, it is simply outrageous.

Especially when she knew about Rina Toshima's talent in cooking, this intuitive impact was even greater.

Tsugumi Rina's talent in cooking is lower than that of ordinary people. She already had the exact feeling of this in the family basic class in high school.

"Uh..." Rina Toshima hesitated. She couldn't say that her little boyfriend's valet taught her. It would be too troublesome to explain. She thought about it and nodded, "Yes."

Anyway, Che's cooking skills are not bad, and he did teach him one or two dishes.

"...This is quite powerful."

Hoshino Ai opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, all the words he wanted to say were condensed into a short speech.

Apart from this sentence, she no longer knew what to say.

My best friend has defeated talent with persistence and love.

In a sense, this is quite inspirational, focusing on never admitting defeat.

"Oh, yes!"

Oddly, Hoshino Ai, who was sighing one second ago, remembered something the next second.

She had been interested in this matter before.

"...?"

Tsugumi Rina was not in a hurry to answer, but silently looked at the best friend in front of her, waiting for her next words.

"How come I didn't see you going to have lunch yesterday?"

Hoshino Ai blinked, she was very interested in this, especially when Rina Tsugumi, who has always been a self-proclaimed foodie, was full of praise for Beichuan's food, she was even more interested.

Of course, this interest can also be understood as aroused curiosity and appetite.

"Yesterday's weather report said it was not recommended to go out."

Tsugumi Makoto Rina raised the corners of her mouth slightly, picked up the miso soup, and took a small sip.

"Go out and walk less than two meters, can you call me out?"

Hoshino Ai pursed her lips, and glared at her best friend angrily.

Having been with Tsugumi Rina for so long, the micro expression on her face is so recognizable, this girl is just teasing herself.

"What if that doesn't happen?" Rina Toshima chuckled, "Just tell me you didn't go out!"

"..."

Hoshino Ai didn't answer, but just silently looked at Tsugumi Rina, putting on a look of 'I'll just watch your performance quietly'.

She prides herself on being a patient person, especially after being in the workforce for so long.

Today, she wants to see whether she can consume Tsugumi Rina or Tsugumi Rina can consume her.

But just when she was thinking about fighting a protracted battle, Tsugumi Rina suddenly changed the subject, put away the smile just now, stopped showing off, and directly explained the reason, "They went out for something yesterday."

"Before the thunderstorm?"

Hoshino Ai also put away his relaxed look, and became a little more nervous between his brows and eyes.

"Yes." Tsugumi Rina nodded, "I went out early in the morning."

"It's no wonder." Xing Yeai's eyebrows softened again, "Then, where is the other one?"

Hearing this, Rina Toshima sighed, with a little more sadness in her eyes, "I'm going home too."

According to Shiori himself, this week was a temporary event, so the girl set off home early in the morning.

"..."

Hoshino Ai looked at her best friend and then at the breakfast in front of her. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She always had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if she was seeing an empty nester.

"Don't look at me with that kind of eyes." Makoto Makoto pouted, "After getting used to the excitement, it would be unaccustomed for you to go back to living alone.

"What's more, the people who fight with you are quite compatible."

Hearing what his best friend said, Hoshino Ai raised his hand with deep understanding, "Report, Mr. Makoto Tsugumi, I can understand!"

"Ah."

Rina Toshima snorted and rolled her eyes at the man angrily.

"I have really experienced it."

Hoshino Ai quietly defended herself, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

"Hmm~"

Tsugumi Makoto Rina made an 'ok' gesture quite cooperatively.

After lowering her head, she picked up another chopstick of rice and put it into her mouth. While chewing on the rice grains, she leaned over and looked at the floor-to-ceiling windows next to the living room, "This rain is much lighter."

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the gray sky that was originally covered by the rain curtain and appeared to be slightly brighter. Although the rain was still heavy, compared with the heavy downpour last night, it was already much better at this moment.

"Going back to work?"

Tsugumi Makoto Rina tilted her head and made a guess.

It's not that her best friend is a workaholic, but the work of being a policeman is indeed very busy, trivial, and some things that make people crazy almost every day.

In Ai's words - being a policeman is really not as simple a job as imagined.

"No..." Hoshino Ai shook his head, his tired face from the past showed a little more slack, "According to what the boss said, I can rest until the rain stops this time, everyone is like this. "

"so good?"

There was a bit of surprise in Rina Toshima's tone.

"Well, it's good. As a price, after the rain, we have to stand guard for two more days for them who stick to their posts." Hoshino Ai paused and then added meaningfully, "It's fate. Gifts have a price tag from the beginning."

"..." Tsugumi Rina looked at her best friend helplessly, "How do you make me answer?"

"Can you show off your skills again at noon?"

Hoshino Ai didn't care about her best friend's eyes, but looked at her expectantly.

For her, this is the most important thing.

"……can."

Biting her thin lips gently, Rina Toshima nodded.

"Okay!" After the words fell, the expression on Hoshino Ai's face immediately became lively, "Then next time, can you take me to my boyfriend's house for dinner? I promise to only use my chopsticks and not talk too much!"

This is her real purpose.

She wanted to see what Beichuan Che looked like on weekdays.

"Next time definitely!"

Tsugumi Makoto Rina refused without thinking.

It's too troublesome to explain what happened between them. They just need to know about it themselves. As for others, they can only selectively tell or not tell.

Rather than letting my best friend look at it and start thinking wildly, it's better not to let her watch it from the beginning.

Of course, if Ai really wanted to see Che in private, she would still try to make a date and satisfy her best friend's wish.

But other than that, forget it.
