Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 152

"good afternoon."

The second person who came with the sound of pushing the door was a girl named Mayumi Maeda, who was also Natsuki's junior working part-time.Mayumi always comes on time, arriving half an hour before opening, and then working until returning home at six o'clock. She is also meticulous in her work. If this coffee shop evaluates outstanding employees, she will definitely be able to beat Xia, the only employee in this shop. Zhi won the crown.

"Good afternoon." Natsuki and Mayumi greeted.

"Is Natsuchi alone today?" Mayumi asked curiously: "Oh, by the way, Tachibana-senpai seems to be going to the city's pet hospital today to check up on the kitten, and if possible, he will also undergo surgery."

"I also said why didn't that guy come over today, so it was... wait a minute, surgery? What surgery?"

Mayumi tilted her head and glanced at Natsuki: "Speaking of pets, what other surgeries can be performed? Of course it is sterilization surgery."

When Xia Zhi heard it, he almost crushed the cup in his hand.

"What kind of sterilization surgery should be done on a three-month-old kitten? Is there anything wrong with her brain?"

In order to save Xiaoxi's life, Xia Zhi felt that he should call Tachibana Aya.Mayumi on the side was also confused when she heard what Natsuki said: "Is that kitten only three months old?"

He took out his mobile phone, opened the address book, and quickly found Tachibana Aya's name. Xia Zhi called the other party. After a few beeps, the call was connected. What came out of the mobile phone was a highly recognizable message. Tachibana Aya's voice: "Hello? This is Tachibana Aya. Is this Natsuki?"

"It's me. Where are you now?"

"Oh my, you actually asked about my whereabouts, did you find that you have fallen in love with me, a beautiful girl that everyone loves? But you can't be too anxious about this kind of thing, girls will hate you if you are impatient."

"Stop talking nonsense." If this was a comic, Xia Zhi would have had several tic-tac-toe characters on his forehead: "Are you in the pet hospital?"

"……How did you know?"

"Are you here already? You didn't perform surgery on Xiao Xi, right?"

"It's not there yet, because Xiao Xi made a fuss on the way for a while, and it took a lot of effort on my part to catch it."

Is it because you feel your life is about to be in danger?Well done, Xiaoxi, for successfully saving your own life.

"What do you want to do with a three-month-old kitten? You must never neuter it."

"But, don't all pets need to be sterilized?" Tachibana's doubtful tone was conveyed very clearly through the phone.

"It's too early. Spaying him so early will kill him."

Although pets raised nowadays generally need to undergo sterilization surgery, this surgery will affect the growth of the pet. If surgery is performed on a three-month-old kitten, it will greatly affect the kitten's health. and longevity.Don't ask Xia Zhi how he knew it. There is so much miscellaneous knowledge on the Internet that you can't even imagine it, and so is the authenticity of the content.

"...That's it. Do you want an injection?"

"The vaccine is fine. It's better to say that now is the time. If possible, give it a physical examination. For other things, listen to what the people at the pet hospital say and just do it." Xia Zhi told him what he knew I told them all to Tachibana Aya.

"There are also pet quarantine certificates and health certificates." Maeda Mayumi reminded, and Natsuki repeated it to Tachibana Aya.

"Okay, I see. See you later." Li Huacai hung up the phone.

Although she was a little worried, Tachibana probably wouldn't joke about such a thing.

"How's it going?" Mayumi looked at Natsuki with some worry. After all, she was the one who told Tachibana Aya that her pet needed to be sterilized. Although she didn't know that Xiaoxi was only about three months old, if Rika Aya really took the If she found a pet hospital that didn't care about the kitten's condition and had surgery, she would probably be very sad, right?
"It's okay for now. I should just go for a check-up and get vaccinated." Xia Zhi also breathed a sigh of relief.When he saw Tachibana Aya like pets so much, he thought Tachibana Aya knew something about raising pets, at least some basic things.But he still thought wrong - Tachibana Aya simply liked pets.

While this is not a bad thing, it is better for pets to have an owner who at least knows how to take care of them.Although these things are something that every pet owner should pay attention to and learn, but Xiaoxi was picked up by Xia Zhi from the branches of the flower bed, and brought home with flowers and flowers, and decided to raise it. The time really doesn't seem to give Tachibana a chance to learn these things.

"That's good." She breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking towards the staff room.There is still work to do next, and I have to change my clothes before that.When I go to school tomorrow, I must tell Tachibana-senpai the most basic things.

Xia Zhi picked up the cup again and wiped it.As the saying goes, a drop of water wears away a stone. If the cup is rubbed for a long time, will it become thinner and thinner?It probably will, but it's hard to say how long it will take.Maybe Xia Zhi could wipe the cup away before leaving Japan.

After a while, Mayumi walked out of the staff room and came to Xia Zhi's vicinity.When she saw Xia Zhi cleaning cups on the counter, she knew that she probably had nothing to do for the time being.While she was changing her clothes, she suddenly remembered something.

"Xia Zhi."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Mayumi looked at Xia Zhi with a weird expression, which made Xia Zhi's expression also become weird.

"Why do you have Tachibana-senpai's phone number?"

Xia Zhi was a little confused: "It's just a phone call, isn't it normal? After all, we have known each other for so long."

"It's just over a month, is that long?" Mayumi patted the counter: "I have been in the same school as Tachibana-senpai for two years and in the same club for one year. I don't even have Tachibana-senpai's phone number."

Natsuki stared at Mayumi with wide eyes, as if to say: Are you kidding me.

"You are such a failure as a junior." It had been so long, and the relationship should be pretty good. Even without getting Tachibana Aya's phone number, Xia Zhi didn't expect that Mayumi would be such a reckless person.Generally speaking, if you have known each other for such a long time, as long as the relationship is a little better, you should be able to get the other person's mobile phone number, or the friend status of the social account, right?After all, human beings are creatures that cannot do without social interaction.

"That's not it!" Mayumi patted the counter angrily, and Xia Zhi was a little worried that the counter would be cracked, but it was such a big thing anyway, it would be impossible to break it easily. "It's Tachibana-senpai who doesn't give anyone's phone number at all. Every time someone wants to ask Tachibana-senpai for a phone number or other contact information, Tachibana-senpai will smile and shirk it. Many juniors still because of this It made me cry."

So it turns out that the problem lies with Tachibana Aya?This is too true.No, wait a minute...this seems to be the most normal operation?So why doesn't Tachibana Aya give others her contact information? Isn't she afraid that she won't be able to find someone if she wants to find him?

Xia Zhi pondered for two seconds, "Because she often comes to my house to get food and won't go back to her apartment until [-] or [-] o'clock in the evening." Xia Zhi thought about this matter and decided not to say it, because she said it If so, it will probably cause indelible trauma to Mayumi's heart.After all, Xia Zhi is not a devil, so let's forget about it.

"Maybe it's because she often comes to me to ask for discounts?" Xia Zhi casually told a lie that seemed absurd, but in fact the possibility was not small. It was a little unbelievable, but unexpectedly, Mayumi seemed to accept this statement, Nodding while saying "I see, that's how it is".It seems that I accidentally did something bad?
"After all, Tachibana-senpai is a very frugal person." Mayumi gave her reason. Natsuki couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing on the spot.Facing Mayumi's confused look, Natsuki waved his hand and said that he suddenly thought of something from the past and couldn't help but laugh.

Natsuki didn't lie this time. What came to mind was, of course, Aya Tachibana's sharp operation in playing krypton gold mobile games and spending money like water. Combined with what Mayumi said, "After all, Tachibana-senpai is a very frugal person." I couldn't help but laugh out loud.Is there anything wrong with this?Tachibana Aya is so frugal, she is a frugal genius.

Similarly, this is probably another thing that is not suitable to talk about, otherwise Tachibana's image may completely collapse in Mayumi's heart.She is already a person who is about to graduate from high school, and Xia Zhi feels that it is better for her to save a little face for her.The other party should thank Xia Zhi for his great kindness and virtue.

However, Natsuki probably learned one more thing, something not very important - Tachibana Aya was trying hard to maintain her image in the school. It was obvious that she was very attentive, and even Mayumi did not discover her true nature. , let’s call it essence first.Therefore, everyone is working very hard to maintain their image, and Xia Zhi feels like adults.

Pretend, then blend in.I just don’t know if she has integrated into school or integrated into life.However, who can say that the person disguised with a mask is not herself? After all, no matter which image it is, it is still him, right?

The so-called disguise, who is not living with such a thing?

Isn’t it tiring to live life with a mask? People often say this.But who would have thought that it would be difficult to build a harmonious relationship between people without wearing masks.

You yourself will tolerate you because you are yourself, and your family will tolerate you because you are their family, but to others, what do you count?Just a passerby.People don’t need masks to live?Just nonsense.

after all--

The so-called life is an extremely grand, complete, masquerade from beginning to end, isn't it?
