designer who lives in the next room

The long series of footprints on the ground that continued to the intersection is enough to prove that the mother who got up to go to the bathroom in the early morning was not mistaken. At that time, there was indeed a woman standing downstairs in her house.

She thought her conversation with her was a dream, but now it seemed real.

There was indeed a woman, and that woman's voice and body looked like Nanako who had run away from home.

Having a headache, Nanako's mother was sitting on the sofa holding a cup of hot tea in a daze. It was her habit to drink a cup of hot tea every morning.

There are a few strands of white hair on her head, which is enough to prove how hard she usually works. Her only daughter left her, which increased the things she had to do a lot.

Gradually, she couldn't do what she wanted. After all, she was getting old and had heart disease. From all aspects, she was a very hardworking and amazing housewife.

But even so, she already felt a little tired and didn't intend to bow her head to her daughter. She is a very upright person and an excellent person, but her thinking is very traditional. She has lived until now and even opened up her clothes once. None of them were worn.

But the character of her daughter, Nanako, is not like her at all. Nanako has been a character who loves to fight against her since she was a child. In junior high school, Nanako almost became a bad girl. If she had been dragged home in the little black alley and had been beaten up, Nanako would probably have turned into a big sister by now.

And she also learned to smoke at that time, and she smelled of cigarettes every day when she came home. Once she was caught smoking in the room at night, and she did not escape the beating that night.

That's it, Nanako didn't mean to repent at all, she still went her own way, until she finally fell in love with a woman, and completely fell out with her parents.

"What's wrong with you?" The husband in the coat saw his wife sitting on the sofa and sighed. He didn't know what happened in the early morning and walked to his wife. "Why do you look strange?"

Nanako's mother put down the teacup in her hand and looked up at her husband who was about to leave for work.

"I woke up once this morning, around three or four o'clock." The wife spoke neither fast nor slow, and her tone was calm. "I went to the bathroom at that time and saw a woman standing downstairs in our house."

"What?" The husband looked a little stunned. It seemed that the first thing she thought of was the thief who committed crimes in this neighborhood recently, but when she turned around, no thief would stand openly under someone else's house, "Could it be Are you sleepy?"

"No, no, it's true, there is indeed someone there." The wife nodded with certainty, "I went to see it in the morning, because the snow stopped and the footprints on the ground were still there."

"Then did you see her appearance clearly?" Father's speech speed accelerated, he despised this kind of guy who steals other people's property very much, "If you see it, call the police quickly, this kind of person says you want to I'm in jail."

"I don't know, it's too dark outside, I can't see her clearly." The mother lowered her head, "But, but, I seem to know who she is..."

"Who?!" Father was urging, he didn't understand why his wife spoke intermittently.

"..." The wife was silent for a while, picked up the teacup with her hand and put it down again, repeated several times before she spoke, "I think that woman is... Nanako..."

A familiar yet unfamiliar name, a name that has not been mentioned in this family for a long time.

They rarely mentioned Nanako, and when they did, they would use "that woman" instead.

"Nanako?" Father's expression was more stunned than before, "Are you sure it's her? Why is she here?"

Several questions were thrown in a row, and the wife just shook her head when she heard it.

"I don't know, I'm not sure, it's just that her voice and figure are very similar to her, especially her tone of voice." The wife rubbed her temples, and her head hurt even more, "What is that woman coming back now?" ?”

"Is she the one who started the theft?" Seemingly the husband had thought elsewhere, he sat down and put his arms around his wife's shoulders, trying to comfort his wife in this way.

"I don't know, I don't know what she's here for." The wife leaned into her husband's arms, "What else does she want, is she here for revenge?"

The wife's head was sweating a little, her nervousness made her heart ache, and her breathing became much faster.

"Xiangzi? Are you okay?" The husband asked nervously when he saw his wife covering her chest with her hands.

"Help me get the medicine..." I'm about to have a heart attack, and if I don't take the medicine, I can't make it through.

Medications are prominently placed and there is a medical kit on the wall for convenience reasons.

After taking the medicine, the heart gradually stabilized, and the sweat on my wife's head gradually disappeared.

"Xiangzi, you have to be more careful these days. We don't know what happened to that guy. If anything happens, call the police immediately." The husband looked into his wife's eyes and said this, and he seemed to have decided in his heart that Nanako was The fallen man.

"But, I don't think she will come to harm us..." Although she was the one who pushed Nanako out of the house back then, it was her daughter after all. She couldn't believe what her husband said, Nanako came back to take revenge on herself.

"We don't know what she has become now. She was that kind of person when she was a student. Now we can't guarantee what she will become after so many years alone." Father's face is not very good, "like this Well, today I will go to the police station after work, and I will hand over that guy to the police for punishment."

The worried wife looked at her husband. It was almost time, and the husband who had to go to work had to leave.

After her husband left, she locked the door, feeling a little scared in her heart, and all the things she had done to Nanako came to mind.

No matter what Nanako did wrong, even if it was just a trivial matter, I would beat Nanako until the whole body was covered with Band-Aids.

She is too strict, so it is normal for Nanako to hate her. When she drove Nanako out of the house that day, she pushed Nanako out with her own hands. The picture of her head hitting the wall is still vivid in my memory.

Especially Nanako who was looking at her with a bloody expression of hatred.

The wife wrapped herself in a quilt, and it was quiet outside because it was still morning. Fortunately, there were often police patrols here, after all, there had been a theft not long ago.

She was waiting for her husband to come back, but this time passed very slowly, and she waited for her husband to come home after suffering for a long time.

While her husband was describing how he went to the police station to report the case, the police car had already arrived at the gate of Nanako's villa.

Nanako who had no idea what was going on was startled when she opened the door and found two policemen standing there.

"Are you Nanako Kuriyama?" one of the female policemen asked.

Nanako nodded, "Is there something wrong?"

Before she got an answer, or as soon as she finished speaking, she was suddenly pushed to the ground by the policewoman.

"Hey! What are you doing!" Li Zixi, who witnessed this scene with her own eyes, rushed over suddenly. She grabbed the policeman's hand, but was immediately pulled away by another policeman.

"Nanako Kuriyama, now I'm going to arrest you for theft." The woman holding Nanako said, she held Nanako's arm tightly, if Nanako tried to break free, her shoulder would definitely be dislocated.

"What did you say?" Nanako felt unbelievable, "What are you talking about? You got the wrong person!"

"You can keep silent now, and go to the police station with me first." The policewoman pulled Nanako up from the ground, and looked back at Li Zixi who was gnashing her teeth, "Be quiet, or I'll break her arm! "

Volume [-]#You didn’t realize that he and I have the same surname?

I have to say that the recent days are a bit strange. Although Li Zixi has always known a saying, "Fu Wushuang, misfortunes never come singly", but the recent troubles are a bit too much.

I didn't know anything, didn't know what happened at all, suddenly the police knocked on the door of the villa and took Nanako away.

"Steal?" What's that?

Did Nanako steal something, a wallet?accessories?No, no, how could that be possible, the Nanako that Li Zixi knew would never do such a thing.

What exactly is that?

Nanako had already been taken away, and she was also terrified, sitting on the ground until the police car drove out for a while before reacting.

There was no one else at home, so Li Zixi had no way to ask others for help.

But she knew that she couldn't leave Nanako there alone. Although she didn't know what happened, Li Zixi could at least be sure that Nanako must be innocent. This matter was definitely a misunderstanding.

So she grabs her coat and scarf and pulls them on as she runs, running too fast without her keys, and it looks like she's going to be out late if Yui and the others don't come back early today.

On the other side, the police car has been driving to the police station for a while, and Nanako seems to have calmed down. Although she is also confused, she has already come here. She still plans to listen to what happened first.

"Nanako Kuriyama, are you right?" A policewoman who seemed in a bad mood stared at Nanako's face and asked her with a frown.

Nanako nodded, "That's right, it's me."

She answered in the affirmative, the policewoman didn't hear any sense of guilt in Nanako's voice, and this sense of disobedience made her frown even tighter.

"Ms. Lishan, please tell me that in the early hours of this morning, you were at home, oh no, were you staying in the villa you rented?" and time.

"No, I wasn't there at that time." Nanako answered her quickly, without any doubts or concealment.

"Hmm..." The policewoman was stunned for a moment. She thought Nanako would deny it and say that she was at home, so she was already ready to ask questions like "Who can prove that you are at home?"

Nanako's answer interrupted her aura slightly, but soon she returned to her previous self.

The expression on her face was not very good, but it was obvious that this woman was not a policeman who was very good at handling cases.

"Then where were you during this early morning?" The policewoman put down the documents in her hand, and she could see that Nanako, who was sitting opposite her, didn't seem to want to lie at all, "Can you tell me Ms. Kuriyama?"

"Before I tell you, can I ask you one thing?" Nanako rubbed her shoulders, feeling a little sprained when she was pinned to the ground before, "I said, are all you policemen like this? Just put people on the ground directly?"

The policewoman didn't see any anxiety and uneasiness in Nanako's eyes, which is not what a person who committed a crime should feel.

She looked at Nanako with very puzzled eyes, but she still laughed at this question, "You have to know, some people don't have a good face at first glance, and I want to press him when I see that kind of person." Step on the ground with your feet."

"Ah, is that so?" Nanako's eyes changed into a different feeling, and their eyes suddenly became sharper. Just now, the word "early morning" was mentioned in the policeman's words, so why did she appear here? Nanako thought to herself There is already an answer.

"Then it looks like I'm a bad person." Nanako sneered, and in her mind the profession of police is already the lowest, "Let's get back to the topic, my dear police lady, the person who reported the case should be a A middle-aged man with short hair, wearing a black suit and black leather shoes, looks a bit cold, right?"

The smile on Nanako's face was very confident. The words she said to describe the reporter were so appropriate, as if the man was standing in front of her.

But it's not surprising at all, after all, Nanako has seen that man for more than ten years.

"You, how do you know?" The policewoman suddenly slapped the table and stood up, staring closely at Nanako with a smile on her face, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"What to do?" Nanako showed a meaningful smile on her face, she licked her lips, showing a look of joy, "I know the address and appearance, so what do you think I will do next?"

The atmosphere in the air was very tense. In the eyes of the policewoman, this Nanako was like an out-and-out pervert, a murderous pervert.

The female policeman swallowed, the temperature of the air conditioner was not high, but there was still a drop of sweat from her cheek.

"Pfft hahaha." Nanako, who saw all this, suddenly laughed, "Well, well, Miss Police, Miss Police, don't be nervous, I'm just joking with you."

"What?" The policewoman didn't understand what Nanako was talking about, she walked towards Nanako's reassurance.

"I mean, I was just joking with you." Nanako's face returned to normal, "I didn't intend to kill anyone."

"Miss Kuriyama, do you really understand your position?" The policewoman grabbed Nanako by the collar, she looked a little annoyed, "You are in the police station now, not a suspect, stop saying those unclear words .”

"Well, yes, I'm a suspect, but I don't remember what I did." Nanako pushed the policewoman away and straightened her clothes, "And the reason why I know what the person who reported the crime looks like is Because he is my father, didn't you realize that that man's surname is also 'Kuriyama'?"

It seems that this is indeed the case, it seems that the surname is "Kuriyama".

The female policeman returned to the table, picked up the information and looked it up, and sure enough, they were both named "Kuriyama" as Nanako said.

So what's going on here?

From the moment she reported the case, she had already sensed that the reporter had some concerns. She guessed what the man was hiding from her, but she never thought that the thief the reporter was talking about would be his daughter?

Just when she was about to ask what happened, the door of this room was suddenly opened, and a policewoman who looked very young and had a sweaty face walked me in.

"Senior, I can't take it anymore?" The young female policeman covered her face, "A troublemaker came outside and made trouble in the police station, saying 'she won't go back until Nanako is returned'..."

"..." It should be that girl named "Li Zixi"?

This is here, this is the police station!

"You young people, you can actually make people make trouble in the police station. Do you still have the dignity of being a policeman?" As a senior, she picked up her hat and walked to the door. When she was about to leave, she turned to face the police. Nanako, "Don't run around for me, I still have a lot of things to ask about you."

Nanako watched the female policeman leave, and then locked her eyes on which materials.

Sure enough, the person who reported the case was named "Li Shan", and I guessed it right.

"It seems that you really hate me enough." Nanako said to herself, her nails had already left a deep scratch on the name of the informant.

Volume [-]#Please use it with me

Nanako already understood everything, why she was here, what happened, and who sent her to the police station.

According to what the female policeman said, the reporter must be Nanako's father. It seems that she was discovered and recognized by her mother when she appeared at the door of her house in the early morning, otherwise she would not have provided such detailed information to the police.

It seems that he is still deeply hated, otherwise he would not have been sent to the police station with the reason of "maybe a thief" just because he showed up at the door once.

The female policeman went out to the hall to deal with another matter. Li Zixi who broke into the police station, Nanako sighed and leaned back on the chair. Sometimes she really wondered if this guy Li Zixi had any brains. She rushed into the police station to make trouble, although she was doing it for Nanako's benefit, but doing so would definitely cause problems.

"It's really not a very smooth end of the year. In the second half of the year, all kinds of unsatisfactory things are stuck together." Nanako looked at the ceiling and muttered to herself. There was no sound outside, and she didn't know what happened to Li Zixi.

But that's not the point. It's impossible for these policemen to do anything to Li Zixi. At most, they just want to criticize and educate her. In the current situation, the most important thing is the conflict between Nanako and her family. From the current point of view, they will take a walk by accident. If the daughters who arrived at the door were sent to prison as thieves, then they would definitely not appear at Nanako's wedding scene.

If they know that their daughter is determined to marry another daughter, even if they do not try their best to obstruct it, they will definitely ignore it. In their hearts, Nanako is like a stranger now, and she will never be forgiven for doing it alone. things woman.

"So, what should I do with the promise to Li Zixi..." Nanako was at a loss, no one could help her with this matter, even the smartest Yui could do nothing, if she could, she wouldn't leave home Be kicked out.

I have to say that in the hearts of the older generation, homosexuality is still a very difficult thing to accept. Whether it is boys and boys or girls and girls, almost all parents will oppose it, and even normal relationships between men and women will be blocked. , not to mention these.

Nanako, who stayed alone in a very quiet room, couldn't hear any sound. She re-examined herself. If she hadn't been what she is now, she had grown up according to the growth trajectory set by her parents since she was a child, and her sexual orientation hadn't become strange. Graduating from college in a mediocre manner, finding a job that my parents think is okay, and dating and marrying a man that my parents think is okay, will my life be completely different from now.

You can have a home you can go back to, someone to accompany you when you are lonely, and someone to take care of you when you get sick or catch a cold.

This may be very good, an ordinary life.

But this is not Nanako, right? Because of Nanako’s rebellion in high school and her sexual orientation changed in college, from some girlfriends who just held hands and kissed before, to Kimura Asuka who has a physical relationship, and then to the one who really fell in love Li Zixi, it is precisely because of these that she is Nanako Kuriyama.

So, even if there is a chance for her to go back to the past, she will not choose the path that ordinary people would take that just appeared in her mind. She hates that, and she hates the restraint of her family. She feels that they have no reason to restrain her. Own.

One's own life is one's own. After all, Nanako's birth is just the crystallization of her parents' feelings, an accessory, and since she was a child, her parents rarely smiled at Nanako, so Nanako deepened this impression even more.

She likes girls, even if others object to her, she will do the same. She finally found someone she likes, and is finally with the person she likes. She no longer lives like a walking dead, so it is said that Nanako is actually earlier than Li Zixi She had thought of marrying Li Zixi before.

It's just that Li Zixi brought it up first.
