"We'll go back later."
"Go back now."
This time, Hayasaka Ai didn't give in to Kaguya again, and her tone was very firm.
Kaguya Shinomiya frowned slightly upon hearing this, and was about to scold Hayasaka Ai for ignoring her.
But the next second, a very friendly voice came from the bar, which made the two of them freeze in place.
"Miss Kaguya should go back as soon as possible; your health is the most important thing."
Aoba stood there with a rag in hand, a relaxed smile on her face.
"I..."
Kaguya Shinomiya paused for a moment.
The voice sounded familiar, and she instinctively wanted to explain.
"Or perhaps we could wait until Miss Hayasaka has a bowl of ginger soup before leaving?"
Aoba tilted her head and looked at the two of them.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Aoba, I won't trouble you any further." Hayasaka Ai shook her head. "Miss Kaguya's health is the most important thing. I'm fine."
“You’re a human being too, not a machine that can run non-stop.”
Aoba smiled at Hayasaka, but his gaze was always fixed on Kaguya.
"I..."
"Hayasaka, let's go."
Kaguya Shinomiya's cold voice rang out.
Just like before, like a machine completely devoid of emotion.
"Yes, Miss Kaguya."
After Hayasaka Ai nodded, she turned around and bowed to Aoba to express her gratitude.
"Mr. Aoba, thank you."
"No need, go back quickly."
Aoba was truly exasperated by Kaguya Shinomiya's troublesome nature.
It's best to go back as soon as possible.
It's still the same starry sky rooftop back seat.
Kaguya Shinomiya got into the car like a child sulking and turning her head to look out the pattering rain.
Raindrops pounded against the car window, scattering into splashes.
Hayasaka Ai sat silently beside Kaguya, carefully wiping the mud off her body.
As she used a wet tissue to wipe the water stains from Kaguya's neck.
Suddenly.
The pink color hidden in Kaguya's hair surprised her.
"Miss Kaguya..."
"Um?!"
Kaguya Shinomiya was getting a little impatient.
Hayasaka Ai removed the hair clip from Kaguya's hairstyle.
Suddenly.
Her beautiful hair fell down like that.
This. . .
Kaguya quickly turned to look at Hayasaka.
Hayasaka Ai was holding a pink hair clip in her hand, lost in thought.
"show me."
Kaguya Shinomiya took the hair clip after a long day.
My emotions, like scattered water droplets, gradually began to ripple.
So... it wasn't a dream?
Chapter 126 Eight flavors in one, Mapo Tofu!
"Good evening, manager!"
"Good evening, Thor."
"Good evening, Mr. Manager!"
"Good evening, Kanna! What would you like to eat tonight?"
Thor and Connor arrived very early today.
It's just seven o'clock.
Normally, Aoba doesn't officially open for business until 7:30.
of course
Aside from a certain light novel author who liked to arrive early, she always liked to be Aoba's first customer.
unconsciously.
Sometimes, Aoba would be a little dazed after seeing other people push open the door of the izakaya first.
However, the girl must have been writing furiously and rushing to finish her manuscript recently.
After all, since the last time a new editor, Machida Wanko, was appointed, the light novel series at Kasumigaoka seems to have made some new progress.
As for whether Aoba provided any materials...
This is something only the girl herself can know.
Aoba lifted the curtain from the kitchen, brought out a bowl of oden and fed it to Kanna, then looked at Tohru, who was still very diligent:
"Weren't Lucoa and the others with you today?"
Toru quickly arranged the tables and chairs in the izakaya and wiped them clean with a cloth.
Then he turned around and shook his head with great satisfaction:
"Lucoya seems to have something going on today. It seems that some humans are performing a sacrifice or praying to her again."
Sacrifice?
Hmm, that sounds like a really troublesome thing.
Aoba nodded calmly upon hearing this.
As expected, Quetzalcoatl was not as easy as he seemed.
But on second thought:
"Didn't Lucoa already resign? Does she still need to respond to human sacrifices?"
"Hmm~ because Lucoa is special." Thor put down the rag and picked up the broom again.
"Quetzalcoatl is merely a divine deity, but humans offer sacrifices to Lucoa herself, so her response is still necessary."
After Thor's explanation...
Aoba suddenly realized.
It's like a top employee resigning from the company, but the clients she previously worked with still trust her a lot.
She's always the first person I think of when something happens.
Thinking about it this way, Lucoa is actually quite popular.
It's just that I'm being a bit too sensitive.
I was initially worried about Lucoa, but then I started thinking about the water sprinkler...
Aoba tapped his head helplessly.
After returning from Esdeath's world, I always felt depressed.
Could it be that he's been holding it in for too long?
wow-
At that moment, the wooden door of the izakaya was pushed open.
Aoba took a deep breath, looked at the front of the bar, and chuckled softly:
"welcome!"
"Oh, Mr. Aoba, I'm sorry to bother you again."
As Nakiri Senzaemon walked in, a sincere smile graced his unshaven face.
He is known as the "Demon King of Food" in the culinary world.
This posture of his is quite rare.
At least, in the memory of Dojima Gin who followed behind.
The commander-in-chief treated a young man with such sincerity, even humility.
He had never seen it.
"Good evening, Mr. Nakiri, and this gentleman behind you..."
Aoba nodded with a smile.
He looked at the tall, muscular man following behind Senzaemon Nakiri, who looked like a bodyguard.
"I have long admired your name, Mr. Aoba."
