Chapter26

Red suit, contrived, coquettish.

Kyuki already knew who it was.

Speaking of which, Kaneki just knew that he had a friend of Haruna-senpai, but didn't know that it was a ghoul.

By the way, why did Yueshan come to Anding District?Is the Yueshan family bankrupt, and how far must it go bankrupt, so that this picky eater can only choose to go to the stable area for food?Or did he start hunting?

Kuki thought, thought, thought...and fell asleep.

Kaneki called him a few more times, but got no response, moved his body carefully, stretched out his arms tentatively, and kept Jiuji in his arms before closing his eyes in satisfaction.

----

Kuki didn't take the matter of Tsukiyama to heart.

One is that he doesn't think it's necessary, he is too familiar with Yueshan's attacking routines, and dealing with him is like playing with him, and the other is that Yueshan should know that Jinmu is his friend.After all, when he was on a school trip back then, didn't he attract Xiao Dagui just to force him to make a move and make Jinmu hate him?

It turns out that Yue Shanxi didn't know.At that time, his attention was all on getting revenge on Jiu Ji, and his friends Kaneki Ken and Yong Jin Ying Liang were just two props in his opinion, not worth mentioning.

Even if he knows, he can forget all about the superb food.

Moreover, Mr. Sifang also started to exercise Kaneki at the request of the store manager.Under the ravages of Suyagawa and Sifang, Jiuji felt that Kaneki would be able to thrive.So this weekend, when Kaneki said that he had an appointment in the afternoon, Jiuji only thought that he was going to special training again. He didn't realize what was going on and felt that Kaneki was working too hard. He just waved his hand and said you should go and come back early.

That night, Jiuji came back very late.

The manager of Yaozhiwei Company has been re-elected and officially moved to Tokyo. He has to prepare for the press conference and dinner.

It is said that it is a housewarming, but it is only the repair of the original branch office building.The main thing is the change in personnel.The management and some high-level staff have moved here, and at the same time rented a nearby apartment as a staff dormitory-the employee benefits of Yaoshisi Company are always so good.

In the management team who moved here this time, there is Hideyoshi Makura, a distant uncle of Jiuji. He is the head of the Jiankura family in the Yakushiji branch.By the way, his daughter, Nanami Makura, is Akimi's secretary at Xinyao.

One of the characteristics of a chaebol is a close-knit family business. The main resources in the company are in the hands of a few people who are related to each other.The root of the Jiancang family is still the blood of Yaoshisi.It is the blood of the grandfather's compatriots and brothers who followed the wife's surname after they separated more than 50 years ago-the several branches of Yaoshi Temple were formed in this way, which is very different from illegitimate children.

Makura Hideyoshi is a rigorous person, and he does not recognize his relatives when he is working. Kuki was oppressed by him to make various preparations. He revised and rewrote the speech all morning and was still approved to revise it. It made Kuki feel like he was back in high school and was forced to write by Kaneki. when writing.

But Kaneki is so gentle, Jiancang is simply an inhuman working machine, not to mention Jiuji, he doesn't give candy to Qiushi, one stick after another.Jiuji suddenly understood why when Jiancang voluntarily resigned from the chief financial officer to become the assistant to the president, those subordinates whom he single-handedly pulled up not only did not feel resentful, but looked at him with great sympathy.

Thanks to Kaneki for taking the initiative to help him write the calculus homework (this student scored 132 points in the last calculus surprise test, which is a hot chicken), Jiuji is now full of press conferences and banquet speeches.Just the process of the press conference, I changed it twice within an hour. I changed it as soon as I memorized it, and memorized it again after I recited it.When Jiuji came home at night, he received an email. This should be No. 20 revisions. Jiuji really wanted to throw Makura off the Tokyo Tower.

When Jiuji came back at night, he was so tired that he was too tired to lie on the ground panting for breath.

After eating some supper, he planned to take a shower and go to bed, but he waited and waited and saw Jin Mu.

After zero o'clock, I still didn't see Jinmu's person. The security guard searched around to no avail, and the GPS signal couldn't be tracked down. It must have gone to a place with no signal.Jiuji only put on a coat, and hurried out the door with his weak body.He went to the Anding District to search around, only to find out that Mr. Sifang didn't make an appointment with Jinmu at all today.

Jiu Ji was going crazy, he was dangling outside like a headless chicken.Until Suyagawa called and said that Kaneki was home.

After hanging up the phone, Jiuji realized that his stomach was convulsing violently, and his body was covered in cold sweat from the pain, but he didn't realize it at all.

After Jiuji came home, Kaneki had already taken a shower, changed into clean clothes and went to bed, hugging the pillow and wondering what he was thinking.

Jiu Ji remembered what Aunt Wen had shown him, the bloody clothes that Jin Mu had replaced, and endured and endured, instead of grabbing his collar and scolding him, he just sat beside him and asked softly.

Jinmu's mouth was as tight as a clam shell, Jiuji took a lot of effort to pry his mouth open, and then wanted to swing him against the wall.

How old are you, and you still follow others when they say go? !If it wasn't for Yueshan's brains to let him go, Jiuji would have found out that Yueshan did it afterwards, and it would be useless to chop him up and paste him on the wall!

It took Jiuji a lot of effort to hold back the urge to hit someone. Seeing Kaneki huddled up like a poor mushroom that was chewed and thrown away, he took a deep breath and smashed all the violent thoughts into pieces and swallowed them back Inside the stomach, said in a deep voice, "Do you still remember the address?"

Kaneki nodded and whispered an address.

Jiuji got out of bed, stepped on the carpet with bare feet and quickly went out, leaving Kaneki alone.

Kaneki looked blankly at the closed door, not knowing what Jiu Ji was going to do.

Obviously still in Jiuji's room, sitting on his bed, wrapped in his quilt, wrapped in everything about Jiuji, but he still feels extremely cold.

He looked at the closed door in fear, expecting to see Jiu Ji's figure reappear, but 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes...

Having fully realized what a second feels like a year, Kaneki just felt his whole body go limp and extremely helpless.

God knows how much he wanted to see Jiu Ji when he came out of the ghoul restaurant.This home, this room, this person, is his shelter.

But Kyuki wasn't there.Suyagawa said he went out to find him.Kaneki felt sweet, but also felt a little guilty.

Suguchuan said that he was so busy today that his feet didn't touch the ground, and when he came back, his feet were floating.

At this time, Jiu Ji left again.

Sure enough...are you angry?

Since he transformed into a ghoul, he has been causing trouble non-stop, no wonder...

Just when Kaneki was thinking wildly, Jiuji came back as if pinching a point.

"Kyuki, where have you been...!"

"Let Suyagawa become an enthusiastic group of people reporting ghoul restaurants." Jiuji got on the bed, crawled over Kaneki's legs and lay down on the other side, only a pair of closed eyes remained under the quilt. "Go to bed, it's four o'clock."

Kaneki turned off the light, and then lay down, but his lead gray eyes were wide open, staring at Jiuji with hairs all over his body.But he really didn't even have the strength to open his eyes, so he pretended not to notice.

Until he heard Jin Mu getting up at night, and then entered the bathroom, he didn't come out for a long time, and could faintly hear low sobbing.

……Fine.

Jiuji got up resignedly, went to the bathroom to retrieve the frightened little poor man, and threw him back on the bed.

What did she say before?Thin blankets to soothe a frightened person, yes.

Kuki went to the sofa to find a thin blanket, wrapped Kaneki into a caterpillar and stuffed it into the quilt.After he also lay in it, he found that the caterpillar golden wood was a good pillow, so he wrapped his hands and feet around it.

Good night.

Jinmu was wrapped tightly, and a strangely powerful red-haired octopus was added to fix it. Except for the head, the whole body could not move.

After he was stunned for a while, he couldn't help laughing, and at the same time, tears quietly overflowed his eyes and wet the pillow towel.

----

The next morning, Kaneki's screams waking up from the nightmare woke up Jiuji more punctually than the phone's alarm.

While rubbing his sleepy eyes, while patting Kaneki's back soaked in cold sweat, Jiu Ji's proficiency in this set of movements was already at full capacity.

"It's not Pavarotti, who still speaks every morning. Seriously, in a normal apartment, we would definitely be harassed by the neighbors."

Jin Mu hugged him and didn't speak.

"Ouch, my Derek Rose pajamas, tears, tears. Crybaby Kaneki. Oops, snot! This is unbearable, I'm going to hit you!"

"Hit me, and I won't let go." Kaneki sniffed hard, but still didn't lift his head, and didn't intend to let go at all.

"I didn't let you go." Jiuji touched the back of his head, pinched his face again, Kaneki turned his face to rub his palm affectionately.

"I've had enough crying and I'll wash my pajamas later." The snot was unbearable.Oh, didn't you rub it on your hair? "By the way, remember to go to the kitchen for me later and tell me that I want to eat eggs at noon."

"Well, Jiuji, in fact, I can continue to cook..." Since he lived here, Jiuji's daily lunch at noon and weekend lunch are all arranged by him, and he will give him a snack from time to time, and raise Jiu Ji developed a good handicraft.But since he has an aversion to food, he seldom enters the kitchen.When he realized it, Aunt Wen had cooked Jiuji's lunches for so many days.And Jiuji definitely didn't realize it, but just acquiesced.

Jin Mu was very guilty and a little bit lost, feeling like the little pig he had raised for three years ran away with someone else.

Kuji yawned, still looking sleepy. "Forget it, can you tell the difference between salt and sugar now?"

"Salt and sugar dissolve faster in water than sugar." Jin Mu showed his wisdom in daily life.

Kyuki still didn't agree. "You don't feel comfortable smelling ordinary food now, do you?"

"it does not matter."

"I said forget it. How can you have so many things." Jiuji pushed the black head off his shoulder. "I'm tired of eating just a few dishes you've been cooking for three years."

Knowing that Jiuji said this on purpose, Kaneki still felt the need to clarify: "That's because Jiuji not only has a stomach problem and you have to avoid food, but also picky eaters. You don't eat coriander, eggplant, offal, and I like fish but don't like noodles, what else do you think I can do?"

"Shut up!" Jiuji threw a pillow forcefully.

Kaneki caught the pillow and put it back on the bed. Seeing that Jiuji was about to get out of bed to wash up, he threw himself forward and hugged his waist to prevent him from leaving.

It really is so thin and soft... It doesn't look like a man's waist at all, and it doesn't look like a waist of a man who can smash the concrete floor with one foot.

"What are you doing?" Jiuji stretched out his arms to take the phone, then sat back on the bed and let him hold it.As soon as I turned on my phone, I saw the email from Jiancang.

... Why has the process changed again, I can go to your grandma for a while.

"Say something soon." Jiu Ji felt a pain in his temple.

"...Are you really so busy recently? Will you be in the future?" Jin Mu asked in a muffled voice.

Jiuji recalled it for a while and said, "I've been a little busy recently, but I won't be in the future. Do you want to know what kind of work I do?"

Jinki nodded.Unknowingly, he has opened up such a big distance with Jiuji...

Jiu Ji cleared his throat and said, "For example, last month's 'A Pack of Medicine, One Yen of Love' donation activity couldn't find out the whereabouts of the payables, so I went to the Finance Department for trouble. There are some vague terms in the contract. Loopholes, return to the legal department for re-drafting. The books and statements of the direct selling store are blurred, and they are sent back to the sales department for redoing. The new employees are dissatisfied with their salary, and they are sent back to the HR department for revision. In general: don’t come to me.”

"...So, Jiuji, your job is to make trouble." Kaneki said calmly.

"It's very accurate." Jiuji bowed his head and edited to reply to the email from Jiancang. "Let go, I want to wash my face, why do I think I have acne."

"Hmm..." Kaneki uttered an indistinct monosyllable, but he still didn't move. "It's okay, Jiuji looks good with acne."

"If you don't have anything to show gallantry, you can either rape or steal. If you have any purpose, just say it."

"...Then, can you touch me again..."

"……alright."

touch.

Well, Kaneki's hair is really thin, and the quality of her hair is no worse than that of herself who takes regular care of her hair.

Touch again.

Well, be good.

Touch, touch.

That's it, rely on me a little more.

----

To be honest, Jiuji didn't want to go to the press conference or the banquet.But as the current owner of Yaozhiwei Company, he had to show up.All the homework for the past two days was thrown to Jinmu—thanks to Jinmu who came to accompany him to class every day, so there was no pressure for homework.He spent almost all of his time on this, and Jin Mu couldn't help at all, so he could only make coffee and pass tea and go out to run errands.

Raising soldiers for a thousand days is a time for soldiers, and when the time came, Jiuji was so nervous that his stomach hurt when he woke up in the morning. Kaneki rubbed him for a long time in a panic, but it didn't get better, so he could only take a handful of painkillers.

The press conference went smoothly.There are Mr. Jiankura and lawyer Oyama sitting in the town. The reporters made things difficult and most of the questions with malicious intentions were blocked by them. Jiuji is not a soft persimmon who can be squeezed by others. He found an opportunity to irony and quickly established his image. stand up.

The 18-year-old young president has indeed caused a sensation, but when you think about it carefully, his brother took over the huge family business at the age of 24 and has not yet encountered Waterloo. Everyone can only sigh that the genes of the Yakushiji family have recovered.

After the press conference, Jiuji took a nap for two hours, got up and changed into a suit, put on a light makeup that made him look more mature, swallowed a lot of vitamins and stomach medicine, and walked forward with the expression of preparing for the battlefield. To the carved door of the banquet hall.

Even if Yaozhiwei Company does not have the scenery of dominating the Japanese food industry in the past, it is still the largest snack food chain in Japan.The Yakushiji Zaibatsu behind it is the apex of the Japanese giants, and has a strong influence in Japan and even the world.

Jiu Ji was protected by his family, and it can even be said that he grew up in hiding. Some members of the family who did not have a deep relationship with Yakushiji even met the third son of the Yakushiji family for the first time.So, whether it's to curry favor with the Yaoshisi chaebol, or just to see what this mysterious third son looks like, or to make friends with people from other companies at the banquet... In short, there will definitely be many high-ranking people at the banquet tonight turn up.

Of course, many people, especially those with school-age daughters at home, have other ideas.

After all, Yakushi Tera Kyuki has not been engaged until now, and according to the results of their investigation in advance, he has not even had a girlfriend.

If he could fall in love with him tonight, it would definitely be like flying on a branch and turning into a phoenix.

Suyagawa pushed open the door, and Kuki entered the banquet hall with a gentle and polite smile, and was instantly exposed to everyone's sight.

He is not tall, less than 1.7 meters, but his legs are long and straight, wrapped in well-cut trousers, he looks amazing.A head of smooth red hair was tied with a jeweled ribbon and fell loosely on the shoulders.The bi□□ pupils of the Yaoshi Temple family are half closed, and the corners of the mouth raise a textbook-like elegant arc, which is imperceptibly alienated under the gentleness.

The moment he stepped into the banquet hall with outstanding temperament, he became the center of the entire banquet hall.

Ingratiation, envy, jealousy, spying, sarcasm, gossip, sincere congratulations, sarcasm from the Ming Dynasty... He accepts them all, calmly accepts everyone's kindness, and faces some seniors in the business world who give pointers, even if they are face-to-face. For someone who is not qualified to attend a banquet but somehow sneaks in just to make friends with powerful people, even when talking with some media personnel who keep asking impolite questions, the curvature of the corners of his mouth has not changed as if it is fixed by nails, No disgust or impatience.

Holding the wine glass steadily with his slender fingers, he saluted everyone who came to toast in a personable manner. His methodical and calm appearance did not reveal that he was a minor who had never touched alcohol, and the glass contained only grape juice.

He is impeccably good-looking and elegant, and even the most stern etiquette teacher can't find a fault in every move. The natural nobility radiates from the inside to the outside, wrapping him like a fine ruby, exuding dazzling and pure of light.

Several well-dressed ladies urged their daughters in low voices, and stared at each other with hostility.

"Did you see it? That is the youngest son of the Yaoshi Temple family. He has inherited a lot of inheritance and is very favored by his brother. If you marry him, you will have nothing to worry about."

"I heard Mrs. Dorothy say that this young master looks better than women. Now it seems that she is not exaggerating at all. I heard that he has never had any relationship with men and women. It is perfect."

"Personal conditions are so excellent, why do you hesitate? If I were 20 years younger, I would never let such a wealthy son-in-law go."

There was a blue-eyed girl who seemed to be of mixed race and said hesitantly, "But... But when I was in London, there seemed to be a lot of bad rumors about this person, saying that he was... a monster or something..."

"Oh, why are you so ignorant, kid! What is the status of the Yaoshi Temple chaebol? After marrying in, you don't have to worry about anything in your next life. You can open your mouth with your clothes. Don't talk about monsters, I will marry even aliens!"

There were also many people from the film and television industry present, and the bands that were invited to perform could also meet actors from the first to the eighteenth.And some agents with treacherous eyebrows are greeting their own little stars. "He's not the head of the family, and he is favored by his elder brother. It doesn't matter if he plays like crazy when he thinks about it. Don't dream of marrying a wealthy family with your qualifications, but it's still possible to climb a bed."

"Resources, as long as you pick him up, you don't have to worry about resources! Look, a housewarming party in the business world can still attract so many people from the film and television industry. This is the influence of the Yaoshisi family."

"There is no man who doesn't want to eat meat. The Yaoshisi family has always been clean. As long as he sleeps, you will definitely be responsible."

"Hey, but I'm a man..." A delicate-looking teenager blinked his eyes and said helplessly.

"What do you know? Yakushijijiuji is 18 this year and hasn't had a girlfriend yet. Why do you think that's the reason? He might be gay! Climb into his bed, are you afraid you won't be able to get resources?"

……

……

Kuki's face froze with a smile.

On the other hand, Kaneki is also in trouble.

When he came back from Mr. Sifang, he met Senior Nishio who was besieged by other ghouls.Although he was still alive, but because he was injured too badly by Jinmu, he didn't have the strength to hunt prey, so the injury has not healed.

He rescued Nishio Nishiki by relying on the skills abused by Suyagawa and Mr. Sifang for a while, and after sending him home, he met Nishio's girlfriend, Takami Nishino—a person who knew that Senior Nishio was a ghoul and was willing to accompany him. the humans around him.

Not envious at all.

Because he has it too.

Although they... are just friends, not lovers.

Kaneki couldn't help but clutch his painful chest, the thought made him feel bad.

... Such a beautiful person is not his lover.

Unprecedented sense of loss and unknown pain tore at the heart, Kaneki felt breathless.

……

Jin Mu was restless all the way, and all kinds of thoughts almost burst his head.He promised Takami Nishino to help Senior Nishio find food.Although those injuries were all caused by him, they were brought on by Nishio Nishiki, and Kaneki was purely self-defense.But he admires Miss Guiwei very much...

The Anding area only provides food for weak ghouls that cannot hunt like Miss Ryoko and Hina, or ghouls that obey the management of the Anding area and do not kill humans indiscriminately when they are injured and cannot hunt. So Kaneki could only pick it up behind the back of the store manager and colleagues.

However, the food refrigerator in the security area was locked, and he couldn't open it.

When he was at a loss, something worse happened.

As soon as Kaneki walked out of the refrigerator tiredly, he saw roses and a letter falling on the balcony.

"To Kaneki, let's have dinner tonight at 24 o'clock. I also brought the woman you talked to in the park, let's have a special night for three!"

"Miss Guiwei!"

Just then, someone knocked on the door of the coffee shop.Jin Mu opened the door and exclaimed again. "Nishio-senpai!"

The brown-haired ghoul with glasses was pale, lying on the ground breathless, I really don't know how he got here from home.

"Kimi, she hasn't come back...!"

There was no time for hesitation, Kaneki had to go, although he wanted Nishio, who was seriously injured, to go back to rest, but was rejected.

He helped Senior Nishio up, carefully left the coffee shop, and walked towards the address in the letter.

The night was as dark as water, the stars were hidden behind the clouds, and there was only the dim light of street lamps on the street.

Suddenly, Kaneki remembered that day, when he found himself transformed into a ghoul...

[I beg you, Ken Kaneki! !Can you listen to me once! ! ]

He didn't want to involve Kuki in these things, but...

In that alley, it was also such a dark sky, under the dim light, Jiuji stood there, his eyes were red, tears fell patteringly, as if hitting his heart.

[...Can you stop worrying me...! ]

"... Nishio-senpai, can you stand up by yourself? I... make a call."
