all the light

I'm Aso...well, yes...yes...I feel a little unwell today, um...no problem, just let Vincent send the information to my email...OK, I'm really sorry...don't worry It can be done...Leave it to me, that's it, thank you, goodbye. "

Holding her nose, Aso Yukari learned the nasal sound unique to cold patients by ten percent.

——In this weather, the guy who doesn’t stay at home comfortably but chooses to go to work in the severe cold is an idiot~

Since that guy Takeshi Yamamoto left last time, he hasn't been running here for three days like before. It's probably because something happened to Pengo Lieli that he didn't have the time to harass and harass her.However, the greeting call at a fixed point every morning has never been interrupted. Looking at the time, it is probably...

"Jingle Bell--"

——It’s almost time...==

Aso Yukari opened her eyes listlessly, and put the phone to her ear: "Moses, Moses?"

"Haha Yukari, good morning, haha——" The voice of the person on the other end of the phone sounded full of energy as usual, but Aso Yukari still discerned a trace of imperceptible fatigue hidden in it.

——This idiot must have stayed up all night to catch up on work again... In other words, as one of Pengo Li's two rare and reliable guardians, how could the workload be less.

In Aso Yukari's mind, the tired look on that idiot's face can almost clearly appear. He must be sitting behind the desk in the office, propping his head in one hand and holding the phone in the other. With a suit jacket and a coffee cup with brown marks on the bottom of the cup in his hand, the desk was full of white documents covering the entire desktop, accumulating into a thick layer, his eyes quickly scanned the densely packed text in front of him, and talk to yourself...

"Ah, good morning, Wu—" After a long ending, Aso Yukari's words revealed a deep sense of sleepiness.

"Is Yukari still at home?" Sure enough, she heard the rustle of the other party flipping through the paper from the interval between the phone conversations.

"No——I'm already in the company." Aso Yukari lied decisively as she was really embarrassed to let the other party know that she had committed laziness again.

"Huh? But I just called Yukari's company, and I heard that you are sick and asking for leave today~" She couldn't help but feel awkward due to the full of teasing.

"Cough cough..." Coughed twice, Aso Yuka carried forward the great spirit of making mistakes until the end, "Well, actually, I feel like I have a little cold today, so I asked for a leave of absence! Oh, oh, oh, Wu, you believe me, I'm real I have a cold..."

In the middle of the speech, she heard the person on the other end of the phone laugh out loud without any scruples, which made her a little annoyed and raised her volume.

"Okay, okay, Yukari, you really have a cold, I believe you, haha..."

——Hey, what's the matter with your perfunctory childish tone? !Takeshi Yamamoto, you natural black bastard, do you think she is really easy to deceive? ! ! ! !

Yukari Aso's face darkened, and he was about to have an attack, but he heard the laughter of the person on the other end of the phone, as if someone had pressed the pause button, and was about to ask a question, but was suddenly heard by an unfamiliar voice on the phone interrupted.

"Huh? Good morning, Ah Wu, who are you on the phone with?" The brown-haired young man who pushed the door and entered with the same tired face had a slight smile on his face.

Aso Yuka felt that her blood vessels were frozen in an instant. Although the heater was turned on in the room, her fingertips holding the phone felt slightly cold, and an inexplicable chill climbed up the nerves of the ear canal. Along to the cerebral cortex, and then down along the blood vessels, has been penetrated to the heart.

Takeshi Yamamoto also looked at the friend who came to visit suddenly in surprise, the smile on his face froze before it completely faded, and he froze for a few seconds before he said, "Good morning, Gang..."

"...Since you have something to do, I won't bother you." She could feel the difficulty of speaking, "Also, staying up late to change documents is not good for your health, drink less coffee, remember to lie down on the sofa later... ..."

Even I don't know why I added the second half of the sentence, Yukari Aso's brain and nervous system is in a state of extreme confusion.

"Well... okay... I see..." I didn't expect the other party to care about me so much, and I responded in a daze. Takeshi Yamamoto on the other end of the phone felt warm, as if he finally reflected what she said , the smile that was still frozen just now spread out again, feeling the corners of his mouth rising uncontrollably, and finally fixed on the warmest arc, softening his tone, he said in a good mood, "Then I will first Hang up, bye..."

"En..." Hanging up the phone like a ghost, Aso Yuka hugged the fluffy blanket in her hand, wrapped herself in it, and then fell headlong into the sofa.

Her cheeks and the thin fluff on the blanket were stuck together, she rubbed them subconsciously, narrowed her eyes, and quietly hid the beautiful light blue color, after a long time, she faintly let out an inexplicable sound Sigh, seems to be relieved, but also seems to be depressed...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Putting down the phone, Takeshi Yamamoto looked in a good mood.

"Is Wu talking on the phone with someone special? It's rare to see you smiling so happily..." Tsunayoshi Sawada said with a narrow smile on his face, winking at his friend.

"Well~ I guess..." Takeshi Yamamoto replied vaguely about this matter.

"Ahhhh? Really?!" Tsunayoshi Sawada was just joking, but he didn't expect Takeshi Yamamoto to react like this. He froze for a moment, then took advantage of the situation and continued, "Would you mind showing it to me someday? See? I am looking forward to the so-called "special person" by Ah Wu..."

"Haha...Of course I don't mind, but when you and Kyoko get things done first, I'll show her to you~" Takeshi Yamamoto's eyes flashed with unclear meaning, and he said casually as if he didn't care. promised.

"Ala, Wu, you're teasing me again. Kyoko and I..." Speaking of a certain name, the light in Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes dimmed slightly, and there was a faint melancholy in the brows.

——The blond woman in my memory has become more gentle and beautiful these years. Pedestrians walking on the street can't help but look back at this beautiful woman who radiates light all over her body. Everyone can see her beauty See you.But it was her kindness to him that made the good-for-nothing in the past, today's tenth-generation leader of Pengo Lie, and the godfather of the Mafia, always have fear in his heart. He used to think that he was not good enough to be worthy of her. Well, then it was...

——Similarly, earth-shaking changes have already taken place in him ten years later. The shadow of the good-for-nothing who was bullied by others in the past has long since disappeared without a trace under Li Baoen's tutelage. Instead, with smooth tactics, gentle smiles, and powerful abilities, he has firmly occupied a place in the bright red world of the mafia, supporting Vengley's competent BOSS...

"Well~" Seeing his friend's depression, Takeshi Yamamoto consciously changed the subject, "What's the matter with Gang looking for me so early?"

"Ah, yes, yes... See, I almost forgot..." He raised his hand and patted his head, and the expression on the face of the brown-haired young man became serious, "It's about the report that Balian handed in last time. , you and I specifically mentioned, the matter about the Angolas family..."

While talking, the brown-haired young man sat down opposite Takeshi Yamamoto, and the joking atmosphere in the office just now gradually dissipated, replaced by a serious one.

"Ah, I see..."

………………

Aso Yukari didn't know how long she had been planted on the sofa, and she fell asleep unconsciously, but fortunately, the heating in the room was turned on enough, so she wouldn't catch a cold.

The dream is still the familiar scene, the boundless fire, the bright flame color seems to swallow the whole world, even the vast night sky is dyed a kind of enchanting orange, reflecting the ominous.

Alone, she groped for directions in the sea of ​​flames in a daze, trying to find what she was looking for, but found that she couldn't find it in despair.

Because of the large amount of burning, the oxygen in the space became thinner, making it difficult for her to breathe.The vision in front of her eyes slowly became blurred, and when she finally lost consciousness due to inhaling too much dust, at the end was the anxious call of the black-haired young man, and the only embrace that made her feel trusting and dependent.

What woke her up from her sleep was the pleasant ringing of the doorbell. She got up from the sofa blindfolded, shook her head and threw away the nightmare that had been repeated thousands of times, and staggered to open the door.

Glancing out of the door through the cat's eyes, her pupils dilated slightly due to surprise, and the remaining drowsiness disappeared without a trace.

Opening the door, she turned slightly to let people outside the door come in: "Vincent? Why are you here? Come in first..."
