Social animals don't deserve love

"Are you all chatting?"

Pushing open the door of the Vortex Cafe, the colleagues in the deepest booth surrounded A Dun and teased him, while the other side of the glasses with a clear boundary sat alone and flipped through magazines.

Jingzi didn't even knock on the table when she heard the voice: "What do you want to order? It's hard work to go to the court frequently these days~"

"Ah... that's amazing. Ice mint lemonade, add two spoons of honey." The Tanizaki brothers and sisters squeezed to make room for me to sit down. Aden, who couldn't sell it no matter what, entrusted him with a wry smile and said another Thing: "A few days ago, I saw the remnants of the group on the road. As soon as I saw her, I ran away. Is there any danger?"

"she"?

I took the lemonade from the hostess and hesitated for a moment: "Is that the red-haired girl named Lucy?"

"Hmm!" A-Dun scratched his cheeks a little awkwardly: "I don't know how I offended her, anyway, I don't like me, and I will be scolded if I open my mouth for at most three sentences."

"..." I put down the glass and carefully looked at the child up and down: "A-Dun, have you ever thought about other problems? For example..."

"For example?" The white-haired boy looked blank, and all kinds of colleagues who were standing, sitting and lying on their stomachs pricked up their ears, and I abruptly turned the corner when they spit out: "For example, you forgot that you did something. What an annoying thing."

In terms of face alone, Arden is definitely not only ugly.And because she was abused in the orphanage all year round, she always smelled of timid milk all over her body.In addition, his nature is gentle and kind, and he is very good at reading the air, so he can easily win the favor of women of all ages.

——In this regard, he is worthy of being an apprentice brought out by Osamu Dazai himself.

"Hey!"

Unable to hear the wonderful story of the children being made red-faced, the colleagues who entered the burnout period went back to their own business to have fun.

Only A-Dun was still trying to turn his brain to think hard: "Is there? What did I do to make her angry?"

"Then you have to think about it yourself, how do others know." After drinking the lemonade in one breath, I stood up and walked forward and sat down opposite the glasses: "I asked, and the Supernatural Secret Service Division gave me a few time periods All right, let's cooperate."

Several prying eyes came from all angles, and the glasses calmly closed the magazine and smiled: "Okay, I will wait for you at that time. And..." He put up the comic magazine and waved it: "The drawing is very cute, but if c If it’s not you, please arrange for me to die alone.”

"..."

asshole!Who the hell brought the samples sent by the magazine to the coffee shop and threw them everywhere!

Drawing a manga book of her ex-husband and being caught by someone, even though she was so embarrassed deep down that she was digging her toes, she still showed a calm and calm expression on her face: "Then you will die alone forever."

He put down the magazine and laughed a few times, and when he saw the shadow of the black car outside the window, he straightened his clothes and stood up: "I'll go back first, please get me out of your blacklist, or I'll have to bring my computer and change office location next time. Like this coffee shop?"

On average, Sakaguchi, who was blocked three or four times a week, nodded at my colleagues, went to the cashier to check out and left.

The bustle of the coffee shop resumed after the car from the Ability Secret Service Division drove away. The first person to say something was of course Osamu Dazai: "Will that lawyer Gu Meimen be able to do it? Why does Ango still have pocket money and go out to drink coffee ? Fuxue-chan quickly check his account to see if he has fulfilled the court's decision!"

"Do you need me to explain the legal basis to you again?" I took a look at the bill brought by the hostess, and she explained with a smile: "Mr. Sakaguchi just settled all the bills together, including Mr Dazai."

The capital of civil servants is high, especially if someone has been promoted recently, a few drinks are not a burden at all.On the contrary, Dazai was so angry that he still insisted on paying him every time. For a while, I was a little confused about who exactly the glasses were running this trip for.

——Why do you always feel that you are a bit redundant?

So I picked up the manga magazine and tapped it on my palm: "Dazai, if I can extract your fingerprint from this magazine, even if it's just similar, you understand?"

The door of the Joking Cafe was opened again, and a red-haired girl with a takeaway box walked in: "Hey!"

Aton being teased by Akiko: "Ah—!"

And Jinghua who came in after school with her schoolbag on her back: "Huh?"

In an instant, all the adults turned into emojis—"╮(╯▽╰)╭"

Oh hoo.

Lucy stared blankly at A-Dun, who was "bullied" by the mature big sister until his face turned red. In the next second, his face blushed, and he threw the takeaway box in his hand at him and rushed out the door: "I hate it!"

A Dun, who was smashed for no reason, was at a loss, and was despised by Jinghua who passed by calmly: "So stupid."

Arden: "Huh?"

In the end, the owner of the coffee shop said aloud: "Quickly catch up with her and ask her!"

"Oh!" The boy hastily bowed to bid farewell to the seniors, opened the glass door and chased after him.

Jinghua walked through the aisle and sat beside me, carefully took out a piece of paper and handed it to me: "Sister Chuuxue."

"Oh! It's the report card!" I happily took it over and saw that the deviation value was not lower than 75 points.

Especially for liberal arts, the teacher left a long string of praises on the report card, encouraging parents to cultivate well.

"Wow!" The colleagues who came over to look around exclaimed in surprise, Akiko nodded her temples and smiled: "If you keep this grade for a few years, you will be able to go to the same university as Fuuxue."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Jinghua is so powerful, hehehehehe." I couldn't help but shake her back and forth, and the little girl swayed from side to side like a doll obediently following my movements.

It's like cultivating a flower with my own hands, watching her thrive and budding, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction cannot be described in words.

"Buy some good ingredients for a good meal tomorrow morning, Jinghua, what do you want to eat? Except the soup tofu as a regular item."

The smile never faded from my face, and I excitedly took out a pen and paper to write and draw: "Thank you for your help, such as Mr. Kunikida who helped with math tutoring, and Mr. Ranpo who often shared snacks. President Fukuzawa who has guardianship rights, Dr. Yosano who has regular checkups to ensure health..."

Every colleague mentioned was smiling and proud. Dazai even took out his mobile phone and small handkerchief on the spot while wiping the crocodile tears while calling to Mr. Mori to show off that his "adopted" daughter is a student who can be admitted to Tokyo University. The genius is also obedient, soft, caring and cute.

——The tone is so cheap that if I were Mori Ogai, I could crawl over the wire and kill him.

After the bustle, the colleagues who got off work went back to the dormitory together and walked along the roadside together. The golden afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled even the sea in the distance with a layer of light gold.Jinghua walked beside me, not saying a word about the interesting things that happened in school, holding the chubby orange and white cat in her arms, her face was full of relaxation that should be expected at this age.

The next day, I went to the morning market early after a long absence, took a taxi back with a full hand of ingredients, transferred shifts and stayed in the dormitory to cook carefully.In the evening, a simple table was set up again on the grass in front of the dormitory, and a circle of carefully decorated home-cooked meals surrounded the cakes kindly sponsored by the owner of the whirlpool coffee shop.

"Cheers to Xiao Jinghua from our detective agency!"

The glasses were held up high and bumped against each other with a crisp sound. The little girl hugged the soda and blushed: "Thank you."

As the summer vacation gets hotter and hotter, ice cream, cold drinks, short skirts, comics in front of you, and games in your hands... For Kyoka, these are all entertainment activities after work. She finished her summer homework in a week Follow me around the office all day.

After all, she is nominally under the full guardianship of the "Armed Detective Agency", and she is considered one of the only temporary workers. It is understandable to use the summer vacation time to work.

"Please go with Aden and send these reports to the Supernatural Special Affairs Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Mr. Kunikida handed the file bag to the two children. When Jinghua passed by, I stuffed another 1 yuan to her: "Send it You can play outside for a while after the report, remember to come back before dark."

"Yes!" Taking the civet cat purse, the little girl waved goodbye with a smile and went out to run errands.Mr. Kunikida turned away his gaze and handed over another document: "Look at it, it's another case of investigating corruption and insider trading in parliamentarians."

Colleagues who have recently fallen into job burnout have collectively started fishing mode, and the only ones who can continue to work are me, Kenji, Aton... and Mr. Kunikida.Commissions like this that require the investigator's delicate mind are mainly shared by the two of us as adults, and others can be delayed.

"Okay, after I read it, I will set a time to start collecting evidence." Taking the file and looking at the title, I casually flipped a page and closed it again to ask Kunikida Doppo: "Who is the entrusting party?"

"The Finance Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." He pushed up his glasses and sighed, "It's a bit difficult, what are you going to do?"

"To be honest, I want to give up." Arranging the documents neatly, touching the white paper that smelled of ink, I also sighed: "Continue to investigate. These people will neither reflect on their own mistakes nor dare to resent the Financial Services Agency. I will only point the spearhead of revenge at the detective agency. I am not afraid of revenge, how should I put it... I am more worried about the potential threat created by these poisonous snakes hiding in the shadows, and it is often these small resentments that will bring Big trouble."

"If you really want to give up, you won't mention this matter in front of me." He picked up the documents and planned to walk away, I knocked on the table: "Why did you take my commission?"

"If it will lead to retaliation, let those ghosts and villains come to me." Mr. Kunikida opened the document without looking back to make a record, but I got up and caught up and snatched it back: "It is said that I took over the commission. , even if it’s a big deal to be retaliated, I can still go home and continue to sell paintings for a living, what’s the big deal.”

"I'll go there tomorrow afternoon, and Jinghua will be with me."
