Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 57 Anyway, playing until six o'clock is a bit too much, right?

The soft sound of the wind chime echoed in the coffee shop again. Natsuki raised his head and looked in the direction of the shop door. In came another person who worked in this shop, a girl named Mayumi Maeda.

"good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Senior Xia Zhi."

Mayumi said hello to Natsuki and let out a long sigh of relief when she walked in.

"It's so hot. Is it already like this?"

"If you feel hot, why don't you go and rest for a while. Anyway, there are not many guests now."

Although it is out of polite kindness, it can only produce different effects on different people. For serious people, the effect is not very good.Especially someone like Mayumi who is a bit serious.

With wide eyes, Mayumi put one hand on her waist, pointed one finger at Xia Zhi, and began to accuse.

"He who does not work shall not eat. This sentence is obviously passed down from China. Senior Xia Zhi, can't you be more serious?"

"Even if you say so...just do as the Romans do."

"What a rude person! Our country doesn't have this custom of asking others to be lazy!"

Mayumi protested.

"I know, I know. Go and have a rest now, otherwise we won't let you rest when the guests come."

Xia Zhi was perfunctory.

Humans are extremely fragile and strong creatures.They may die due to various problems, or they may survive due to various factors. Sometimes, it may be just a knock on the head or a hit on the chest, and the human body function will gradually disappear.And sometimes, people who have already stepped into the gate of hell with one foot may also be able to survive because of someone else's words or a simple thought and continue to live.

However, the ratio of those who survived strongly to those who died due to injuries was clearly dominated by the latter.Therefore, vulnerability is the norm and strength is the abnormality. Can we say so?It should be possible, right?Well... forget it, it's quite troublesome, let's just treat it like that.

On earth, humans are already fragile enough creatures, and relatively speaking, girls are more fragile than boys. If I had to list some strong examples, I could probably list quite a few, but Relative to men, there are enough.

Girls are fragile, Xia Zhi was told.The first time he realized this was because two parents told him that he must protect her and his sister.Then, when he came back to his senses, he had already gone abroad...

If there is an overachieving person in the family, there will always be a lot of pressure.

all in all!Girls are fragile, and only this thought came over completely.Whether it’s prejudice or whether it’s real, it’s just brought here.Then, he said it subconsciously.

Then I realized, ah, I am no longer at home.In order to cover up his embarrassment, Natsuki urged Mayumi to leave.He pointed at Tachibana Sai who was tapping away at the keyboard.

"Just right. Take this over for me."

Xia Zhi handed her the plate that had been placed.

"If you want to work, at least let me change into my uniform, right?"

"So it's not time for you to work yet. If you get heat stroke due to work, it will be a big problem. Just let me go."

Mayumi glanced at Aya Tachibana sitting in the corner, and then looked at Natsuki with a complicated expression.

"Okay. But I have a condition." Mayumi raised a finger, "Tell me clearly what happened between you and Tachibana-senpai."

"It's just that kind of thing." There was nothing to say anyway, it wasn't a problem at all to him.

Mayumi walked towards Tachibana Aya carrying a plate. Natsuki watched Tachibana Aya gently press down her laptop, take off her glasses and put them on top. After taking a long breath, she smiled and started talking to Mayumi who was slowly walking over. call.I don't know if it was an illusion, but Natsuki felt that Mayumi paused halfway, and that was the moment when Tachibana Aya looked at her.

However, there was nothing wrong with their expressions, so there should be nothing wrong with them.Even if there are questions, he should not be asked by an outsider. If he doesn't know, he has no right to speak.Speech is free, but casual comments can easily be disliked.

The weather is still very hot, and occasionally one or two guests who want to enjoy the air conditioning can easily come in. If there are more guests, it will be great, and if there are fewer guests, it will be easy.When the number of people becomes more and more, when people get busier and busier, they always think that it would be better if there were fewer guests, and it would be easier. But when the number of guests really decreases, people will wonder why there are not more guests coming. Such a boring thought.

Humans are contradictory creatures.There is only one side of the coin facing up, so you can't have it both ways. Gains and losses are also because some people get it, and some people lose it.It is such a simple truth but there are still many people who cannot understand it. They greedily want everything and then have nothing.From ancient times to the present, countless stories have illustrated this point to the world.

What he can do and what he should do, Xia Zhi, who has already made up his mind on this point, has already thought it through very thoroughly, and there is nothing to hesitate.

The sound of wind chimes rang again, and Xia Zhi faced the guests.

Just as he turned around and put the juice and cake on the dinner plate, a pair of hands stretched out from the side and took the dinner plate away.Xia Zhi glanced at Mayumi who had changed clothes at some point.

"That's not even 5 minutes, is it? If it were me, I would probably rest until six o'clock."

"Anyway, playing until six o'clock is a bit too much, isn't it?"

She looked around again and spotted the guest who had just walked in.

"It's that guest, right?"

Natsuki nodded, and Mayumi immediately walked over with the things, placed them on the table properly, and then came back.

"Why don't you just rest for a while? Aren't you and Tachibana Aya from the same school? I'm not very good at dealing with people like her who are out of touch."

"Where did Tachibana-senpai escape?" Mayumi looked confused: "Although he is not meticulous, he should be a very dignified person."

"Ah?" Xia Zhiye looked at Mayumi in confusion, and fell into deep thought after confirming that she was not joking.

"Your expression is very strange." Mayumi said this.When Mayumi took things to clean the table, Natsuki couldn't help but turn her head and observe the man who was said to be solemn.The other party felt Xia Zhi's gaze, smiled and waved.He also looks approachable, but...

It does seem to be somewhat different.Although it was only a very subtle feeling, and Natsuki, who was slightly short-sighted, could not see Tachibana Aya's face clearly. It was a little hazy, and it was not that there was something missing or something added, it was just simply different.But what exactly is different?

I can feel it, but I can't say it.

Under Tachibana Aya's increasingly confused gaze, Natsuki turned around and continued to look at the empty store door.Hang on high if it doesn't concern you, hang on high if it doesn't concern you, hang on high if it doesn't concern you, hang on high if it doesn't concern you, important things should be repeated three times, and refer to the Four Heavenly Kings at the same time It is common sense that there are five people, and it should be almost enough to read it four times.

How other people live and want is her business. Interfering at will is disrespectful to her, and it is also a kind of self-deception and arrogance. The great teacher should have taught this matter countless times.

The so-called big things are made up of small things piled up one by one. If being able to interfere in other people's private affairs is regarded as a big goal, then providing some help can be regarded as small things used to pile up. However, just Xia Zhi, who didn't even know how to do such a trivial matter, let alone intervene, even whether he was qualified to intervene was another matter.

Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to ignore her.

"That's too much, Xia Zhijun. You obviously saw me saying hello to you, right?"

This troublesome woman actually ran over by herself.

"Even if I say hello, don't come over. I'm still working."

"What does it matter? There are no guests anyway."

She sat down on her own.

"Just leave your stuff there, is that okay?"

Xia Zhi pointed to the things she had placed on the table. The mobile phone was connected to the data cable and charged. It was placed on the table, the laptop, and a document bag containing something unknown.All these things seem important enough, doesn’t this person have any common sense?

"It's okay, it's okay. You can see it from here. After all, it's not that far away."

"Be more careful."

Natsuki really wanted her to go over and put away all her things, but Tachibana Aya always pretended to be stupid and changed the subject, "At least put away your phone..." After asking her, she walked away and put away her phone. return.

"Speaking of which, Xia Zhi. What are you having for dinner?"

"How do I know? The store manager and his friends went to the zoo and should bring me something when they come back."

Sister Sayuri said it herself, so it's probably not wrong.But I hope you don’t add mustard... I have no idea about that.

"Eh? What about my dinner?"

"Eh? Aren't you going to go home for dinner?"

Tachibana Aya was stunned, and Natsuki who saw Tachibana Aya stunned was also stunned.Ah, there really are people who go to other people's places to eat and drink without any warning.

"You shouldn't be short of money, right? Just go find a restaurant nearby to eat."

"I'm not the kind of person who likes to eat out."

"In this case, the coffee shop can be considered outside!"

"If you always pay attention to these small things, you will not find a girlfriend."

She held up a finger, looking serious.

"I don't think about girlfriends now."

Tachibana Aya was silent for a while.

"It will turn into nine."

"...You jumped too far into the topic and I don't know how to pick it up."

In the end, Tachibana Aya was driven back by Natsuki on the grounds of hindering business.
