36.

The final result of this transplanting competition was a draw.

Yukimura Tezuka team completed faster, but Yukie Atobe team transplanted better. In the end, Yukie announced a draw between the two teams, and everyone was happy.

Of course, Xuezhi is the only one who thinks this result is a happy one.

Atobe Keigo felt that he who was in a group with Yukie and was alone with her won.

Yukimura Seiichi thinks this is his date with Yukie.Although two light bulbs came out in the middle, at least it was fun before the light bulbs appeared.

Tezuka Kunimitsu didn't think too much about it, but he just felt that Yukimura Seiichi and Atobe Keigo were a little strange.

The four of them took their gardening tools and walked towards the villa. At this time, they went back to have breakfast.

On the way back, they passed by the Akashi family's villa again.

Different from when he came here, the door of Akashi's villa was open at this time, and there seemed to be a figure walking inside.

Yukie guessed that Akashi Seijuro should have come here.But she didn't pay too much attention, and walked straight over like when she came.

But after walking a few meters, he was stopped: "Xuezhi, wait a moment."

Yukie turned around and saw Akashi Seijuro standing at the entrance of the villa, and Midorima Shintaro beside him.

Akashi Seijuro looked at her with sincere and gentle eyes: "I want to know some details about the case last night, can I trouble you?"

Xuezhi didn't expect him to ask her, so she was slightly taken aback, but quickly nodded and said with a smile: "It's ok, it's not troublesome."

Atobe Keigo didn't know when he stopped, he looked at Akashi Seijuro with a trace of hostility: "I am the first person to discover the crime scene, even if you want to ask, you should ask me, right?" ?”

Akashi Seijuro smiled, looking easy to talk: "Then you can come together."

It was as if the other party was begging to answer him.

Atobe Keigo's eyes dimmed, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Xuezhi felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the conversation between them, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

She looked at Akashi Seijuro, then at Atobe Keigo, and finally turned her eyes to Yukimura Seiichi for help.

Yukimura Seiichi lived up to her expectations, walked between Akashi Seijuro and Atobe Keigo, seemed not to be affected by their aura at all, and said relaxedly: "In that case, let's go in and talk. We are the last Whoever discovered the case first."

The Akashi family's kitchen has already prepared breakfast, and they are not in a hurry to talk about things.

I have to say that Ms. Akasaka is indeed a very competent housekeeper. Even though there are many more guests than expected, she arranged the breakfast properly, which is really too reliable.

Seeing that she was satisfied, Akashi Seijuro smiled and said, "You can come here often if you like."

Xuezhi didn't know if he was being polite, or if he really thought so.

But no matter what, the relationship between them is not close, and there is also the matter of the third brother secretly introducing a partner, so she does not plan to visit frequently.

On his mouth, he said politely, "Thank you."

Akashi could hear the refusal in her words, and said regretfully, "That's really a pity."

He always looked so polite, even the arc of his smile didn't seem to change, which made Xuezhi unable to understand his real thoughts.

She unconsciously looked at Keigo Atobe.Compared with Akashi, Keigo Atobe, who is also the heir of the family son's consortium, understands much better.

Atobe Keigo received her gaze, although he didn't know why she looked at him, but he smiled back at her in a good mood.

Sure enough, even if it was just a smile, she could see his confidence and pride from it.

Xuezhi smiled back.

-

After breakfast, they sat in the small garden on the roof of the villa, admiring the flowers, drinking tea and chatting.

The main reason is that Akashi Seijuro and Atobe Keigo talked a lot.Even as dull as Xuezhi, he could tell that they were competing with each other inside and out.

However, Xuezhi only thinks that they are similar in age, family and status, and they are compared together since they were young, so it is inevitable that they will be different.

"Perhaps this is equal in power and equal in strength and equal in strength and friend in power?" Xuezhi sighed quietly in her heart.

Seiichi Yukimura inserted a few words from time to time, on the surface to smooth things over, but in fact he was making a fuss.

Xue Zhi knew that Yukimura Seiichi was a black-bellied painter early on, and he accepted his behavior very well.

After all, she found it interesting to watch.

Tezuka Kunimitsu and Midorima Shintaro don't talk much. They are both calm and rational people who don't talk much, and they are happy and at ease.

Although Xuezhi is not a person who doesn't talk too much, but because he was woken up too early in the morning by Osamu Dazai, he felt a little sleepy after eating.

She squinted her eyes and yawned slightly under the cover of the teacup, and was watched by Shintaro Midorima next to her.

We all know that yawning is contagious.

The next second, Midorima Shintaro also yawned.

Shintaro Midorima looked too meticulous, and it was rare for Yukie to see such a disrespectful side of him, so she couldn't help smiling, and winked at him teasingly: "Look, we're even."

Midorima Shintaro took a sip of tea, and quietly suppressed the inconspicuous curve of the corners of his mouth.

Tezuka Kunimitsu saw their interaction in his eyes, lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

Although Akashi Seijuro, Atobe Keigo and Yukimura Seiichi were talking, they always paid attention to Yukie.

Seeing Yukie and Midorima Shintaro flirting, they tacitly retracted their rambling topics, stopped their arguing, and started their real purpose of this conversation.

In the maple forest murder case last night, everyone present except Akashi Seijuro and Midorima Shintaro participated in the whole process, especially only Atobe witnessed the crime scene with his own eyes, and Yukie was once regarded as a suspect.

Akashi Seijuro was sitting at home, and the misfortune came from the sky. The good villa became a place where the murderer hid his evidence.

Of course, it is not his purpose to pursue accountability, what is important is that such mistakes will not recur in the future.

Midorima Shintaro, as Akashi Seijuro's friend and lawyer, helped him deal with this matter.

After hearing Akashi's explanation of his intention for coming, Xuezhi suddenly realized that she seemed to have been implicated for no reason, and could be held accountable by the management of the villa area and the housekeeping company.

Atobe Keigo looked at Xuezhi and raised his eyebrows: "I thought you knew this."

Xuezhi touched her nose in embarrassment: "Youjing has always been in charge of these things at home."

Midorima Shintaro comforted her: "Ukyo told me about this before coming here, and I'll deal with your side and Seijuro's side together."

Xuezhi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's really great."

After communicating some details of the case, Yukie and the others said goodbye to Akashi Seijuro.

-

Midorima Shintaro and Yukie went back together. He was going to copy the surveillance video, and documents such as employment documents also needed to be backed up and notarized.

There were a lot of things to deal with, and Luma didn't leave much behind, but just handed Xuezhi an exquisite small gift box before leaving.

"What is this?" Xuezhi asked suspiciously.

Shintaro Midorima looked at her: "The lucky thing for Capricornus today."

Xuezhi suddenly realized that he forgot one thing.

She didn't bring her mobile phone with her when she went out today, and she didn't find that Midorima Shintaro, who would send her a message every day to tell her the lucky thing of the day, actually didn't send her a message today.

Presumably Midorima Shintaro wanted to tell her face to face because he was coming to Mount Takao today and knew he would meet her, and gave her today's lucky item.

"Thank you, I almost forgot." Xuezhi treasured the gift box from his hand.

Inside is a pair of pearl stud earrings.

"It's so beautiful!" Xuezhi took them out carefully, "Is the lucky thing for Capricorn today pearls? Or earrings?"

Seeing her happy, Midorima Shintaro replied in a good mood: "It's a pearl."

Yukie put the pearl earrings back into the gift box, then reached out to hold Midorima Shintaro's hand, and put the gift box into his palm.

Under his nervous and puzzled gaze, Xuezhi raised her hand to take off the earring she was wearing on her left ear, and put on the pearl earring.

She was doing this methodically, but Midorima Shintaro, who was watching her, couldn't help but hold his breath, and stretched out his hand stiffly to let her manipulate him.

Xuezhi took off the earring on her right ear, but she couldn't put on the pearl earring anyway.

"Hiss—" She lost her sense of proportion because of anxiety, and accidentally poked her earlobe with too much force, which hurt a little.

Midorima Shintaro was awakened by her cries of pain, and his bandaged fingers moved slightly.

Probably because the more impatient, the easier it is to make mistakes. Xuezhi just got stuck in the last step of putting on the earrings.

"It's so difficult..." Xuezhi felt aggrieved.

Shintaro Midorima finally made up his mind and said softly, "I'll do it."

"What?" Xuezhi didn't hear clearly, so she stopped and looked up at him.

"I'll help you wear it." Midorima Shintaro stretched out his hand to grab her hand like Yukie did just now, put the earrings and gift box together in her hand, and then carefully removed the bandage wrapped around his finger.

Under Xue Zhi's dazed gaze, he took the pearl earring from her hand, bent down and brought it to her right ear.

He purposely took his breath lightly, but it was still audible, and Xuezhi suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Midorima Shintaro gently pinched her earlobe with his left hand, and put it behind her earlobe, and aimed his right hand with the pearl earrings at the ear hole accurately.

He seemed to be afraid of hurting Xuezhi, so he moved his hands very slowly, tentatively aligning them bit by bit, and pushed forward with concentration and caution...

Finally, the earrings were successfully put on, and Midorima Shintaro stood up straight.

The warmth on the side of her ear left, and Yukie, who was also holding her breath, finally relaxed, but before she could breathe a sigh of relief, Midorima Shintaro took something from the gift box in her hand and leaned over again .

Xuezhi heard him say, "Wait a minute."

Warmth hit her earlobe again, his right hand rested on the pearl of the earring, and his left hand gently rotated to put the earplug on the earring.

"Okay..." he said.

The warmth in the ears left again, but Xuezhi felt that the earlobe was getting hotter.

The atmosphere is a little subtle.

Yukie looked down at the gift box with his head down, but he didn't dare to look up at Shintaro Midorima.

Shintaro Midorima is not much better than her.

Don't look at him still looking calm, in fact, his red ears have betrayed him.

He didn't even bother to re-wrap the bandage on his finger, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Xuezhi, turned and left.

Only now did Xuezhi dare to look up at his leaving back, unable to say goodbye.

Suddenly, someone behind her pulled her into the villa.

The door slammed shut behind him.
