A world where only the protagonist has color
Chapter 10
The bitter espresso melted in his mouth, and the warm liquid was slightly hot on the tip of his tongue.Chizuka Inoue was sitting on the sofa with a white coffee cup in her hand, showing an obedient attitude.
The thin middle-aged man on the opposite side is the person in charge of the Karasuma Group's funding matters, named Nakatani.He smiled kindly, like an elder who cared about the younger generation, asking about some trivial matters in life.The lines of the face are so thin that they are even sunken, but the eyes hidden under the black-rimmed glasses exude the shrewdness of a businessman. He is a character who hides cunning and sinister under his soft and thin appearance.
When Wafugu Rei and the others finished eating barbecue yesterday and were about to go back to school, Inoue Chisuke received another text message from the Karasuma Group, inviting her to come and sit in the group for a while.
It is said to be a daily return visit and condolences to the sponsored students who are about to graduate, but who knows what they are planning.
Didn't he trick her into signing something amazing with rhetoric last time?
Don't be careless.
"Qian Shu is going to graduate soon, have you figured out where to go?"
Putting the coffee cup back on the dinner plate, Inoue sat upright with a perfect smile on his face: "Yes, I plan to go to traffic class."
Although Japan has many protections for women in the marriage law, it still inevitably discriminates and suppresses women in the workplace and society.Women who graduate from the police academy are generally packed and sent directly to the traffic department, and only men are assigned to different departments outside the traffic department.Inoue had no intention of being a hard-working screw in charge of traffic inspection on the road at all. From the time she entered school, her goal was not the traffic class.
But the Karasuma Group obviously wanted something from her.Or maybe he planned to use some kind of roundabout method to gain benefits from her.Compared with other classes that are more lucrative, the answer to traffic class is much safer.
"Traffic class?" Zhonggu picked up the coffee, blew away the hot mist, and took a big sip: "Mmm~ It is indeed a high-quality variety specially imported from Brazil, and the taste is really good."
Talking about irrelevant topics, he looked at Inoue from under the lens with his gray eyes: "Why don't you drink a little more for Qianshu? You don't have to be polite to me."
Inoue showed a distressed and apologetic smile at the right time: "Thank you for your kindness, but coffee is a bit bitter for me, and I'm not too used to this taste."
"That's it..." The thumb of the other party's coffee fumbled lightly at the handle, dragging the end of the sound as if thinking about something.Then, in a gentle tone, he slowly said something threatening: "Are you really not going to drink?"
The seemingly peaceful five words hide another meaning.
"If you don't drink, you won't give me face."
Layers of exploration.
See if Inoue can understand the deep-seated code words, if he can't understand, it's because he has a simple mind and can rub it at will.If you can understand, drinking or not drinking are two completely different ways to decide.
Chizuka Inoue naturally understood.
She tilted her head with an innocent and simple look, pursed her lips and blinked her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she reached out and picked up the cup from the table: "That's right, I heard from the instructors that the work of the police will be extremely difficult." I am so busy that I have to rely on black coffee to continue my life."
She showed a sweet smile: "After all, I'm not a child anymore, it's better for me to get used to it earlier."
After all, he brought the coffee to his mouth and took a big sip, but swallowed it without tasting it carefully.Like young people who try to imitate mature adults, although they have crossed the legal adult boundary, the youthful feeling in their body needs to be refined by the social environment before it will gradually recede.
The strong aroma of coffee spreads in the mouth, and the slight amount of sugar cubes cannot suppress the bitterness at the base of the tongue.
Inoue Chizuru frowned, and drank the special coffee imported from Brazil like a traditional Chinese medicine.Nakatani looked at Chizuka Inoue's bitter look, but smiled heartily and satisfiedly: "Hahahaha, stop drinking if you're not used to it, it doesn't matter if you take your time."
Forced to make an unattractive smile, Inoue nodded and hummed, softly vetoing the other party's seemingly considerate prompt: "It's okay, after all, you have to get used to it sooner or later."
Like an ordinary young man who is trying to grow up fast and has no extra thoughts.
Nakatani put down his coffee and leaned back on the soft cushion behind him with a relaxed body. The white paper in his hand was printed with Inoue Chizuke's latest exam results.
"Oh..." A regretful exclamation slipped from the tip of the tongue: "It's a pity that you only take the traffic class with such good grades."
Inoue Chisuke didn't say anything, just sat upright, smiled helplessly, and swallowed another big mouthful of coffee.
"Have you thought about taking other classes?"
"Well...Of course I want to, but this kind of thing is not something I can decide on my own."
"The current society just looks down on girls. Let me tell you, even if we Inoue go to other classes, there is no problem at all. We will definitely be able to do better than those men."
After being praised, the smile on Inoue Chisuke's face spread even wider.She tilted her head, with a sunny feeling: "Really, I'm really happy to be praised so much by you."
"Hahahaha, of course it's true. But Inoue, you don't need to worry too much, if you really want to go to other classes..."
Nakatani lowered his volume a little, and leaned towards Inoue Chizuru.
Before they finished speaking, a rhythmic knock on the door interrupted their conversation.After being approved, a small half of the door was pushed open from the outside to the inside, and a young man in a dark suit stood behind him: "Mr. Nakatani, they are here."
"It's coming so soon..." Zhongtani pinched his chin, smiled and remained silent for a moment, then looked at Inoue: "Look at me... my business partner, originally agreed to meet at three o'clock, but now they are meeting at two o'clock." It's here. There is no other way, I can only excuse you, Inoue, you should go back first, let you make such a trip today. I have also seen the results, they are excellent, and they did not disappoint the Karasuma Group."
After dropping some compliments, Zhonggu left in a hurry.The man in the suit was still standing at the door, staring at Chitsu Inoue with a serious face.
It seems that since Inoue was first funded, every time he came to the Karasuma Group, there would be eyeliners like this.Although Zhongtani explained that there are confidential documents such as pharmaceutical formulas in the group, even he cannot walk around at will, so the group's security personnel will strictly control non-group staff.
No large group with a market value of [-] billion will let outsiders walk around at will. This is a very reasonable explanation.
Nakatani had already left, so Inoue naturally had no reason to sit still, and she didn't want to stay any longer.
Standing up and tidying up the hem of the sweater that was a little crumpled, she smiled and looked at the man at the door: "Can I go to the bathroom, please?"
The clean and white bathroom is filled with light incense, and there are two dried flowers dotted in the purple glass bottle on the sink. Chiku Inoue is hiding in the small cubicle. Fucking the deep uvula.Under the effect of physiological nausea, he vomited out all the black coffee he drank earlier.
The strong aroma of coffee is a delicacy, but also a poison that can mask excess taste.There is a high probability that the Karasuma Group will not tamper with the cup, but she will no longer believe their nonsense.Even the snacks served in exquisite cups and plates were avoided by her like a snake because of her inner disgust and resistance.
After rinsing her mouth with clean water from the sink, Inoue Chitsu pretended nothing happened and walked out of the bathroom.There was no man in a suit outside the aisle, but Chizuka Inoue knew very well that as long as she stayed in the Karasuma Group without authorization, the other party would definitely show up again and remind her to leave in a polite and forceful way.
Following the route in memory, she planned to find an elevator, but when she turned a corner, she collided with a girl who was only as tall as her waist.
"Sorry." The girl with short chestnut hair took two steps back, said a few words in a cold voice, and without waiting for Inoue to respond, she lowered her head and walked around her.
When he saw the other party's appearance clearly, Inoue Chizuru's eyes widened in astonishment, and his body grabbed the girl's arm before his brain reacted.When meeting the other party's surprise mixed with uneasiness, Chizuru Inoue realized that he had done something extremely impolite impulsively.
Quickly let go of the hand that was holding on to the opponent's arm, Inoue showed a gentle smile: "Ah, I'm sorry, I just want to know if I hurt you, subconsciously...are you hurt?"
The expressionless girl is like the first touch of snow, cool and not bone-piercing.She looked up at Inoue, her bright blue eyes were filled with scrutiny and doubt, and then she shook her head slowly.
"Speaking of which, you are really cute, can you tell me your name?"
The girl stared at Chizuke Inoue and wanted to speak, but she chose to remain silent.She lowered her head, turned and left without saying a word.
It is obviously the age that should be full of vitality, her thin figure is like a residual leaf that will fall at any time in the autumn wind.
Watching the girl turn the corner and disappear at the end of the aisle, Inoue looked back with a heavy heart.When he turned around, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the group bodyguards who had been looking for the cameras in the aisle because he hadn't left for a long time.Putting away all his worries, Inoue also turned into the elevator in the middle of the aisle, and left the building without stopping.
The revolving door turned slowly, and the white sunlight outside was a bit dazzling.
Inoue Chizuru kept flashing back to the figure of the girl just now, and she saw colorful colors on the girl.
It was the first person of color she met besides the five people in the police academy.Although the other party is currently only a child who looks only in his teens.
Why does the Karasuma Group have children, and they can walk around in the group without supervision.The child looked very cold, with vigilance that did not match his age.Although it is necessary to teach children not to talk to strangers, her attitude of rejecting others is obviously due to other factors.
Originally, I didn't want to have too much contact with the Karasuma Group, but the sudden appearance of a girl with color was too abrupt, which made Chizuka Inoue feel at ease no matter what.
Crossing the zebra crossing with a lot of thoughts, Inoue, who was thinking about the details, was stopped after walking a certain distance.
Looking back, the familiar blond hair appeared before her eyes.
"It's you, Jiang Gu, why are you here?"
The man who came out of the coffee shop behind him was wearing a neatly pressed white shirt, and his wheat-colored skin was so delicate that even women felt jealous.
Jiang Gu Ling casually threw the coat in his hand to his shoulder, and walked over with the coconut coffee that he drank almost to the end.Whether it's a handsome face or an overly good body proportion, it's the point where people can't look away and bump into electric poles.
Fugu Rei walked to Inoue Chizuka's side naturally, but she couldn't figure out what she said: "I'm waiting for you."
"what?"
"I saw, you looked restless when you received the text message yesterday. I was worried, so I followed here without permission. You won't be angry, right?"
"It's not that I'm angry, it's just that I was a little surprised. Maybe I was a little moved."
"It's better not to be angry. Let's go, go back to school."
Rei Fuguya naturally reached out to take the bag that was originally carried by Chizuru Inoue, which contained the various transcripts that the Karasuma Group asked her to provide every time they saw her, as if their purpose was really just to support students. return visit.
Because the thing was not heavy, Inoue Chitsu didn't shirk it, and directly handed the bag to Fuguani Rei.
Even if she was really carrying heavy things, even if she didn't want to bother Jiang Guling and the others, those people would always take the things away from her regardless of her objections.
Now is the time for ordinary people to go to work and go to school. There are very few pedestrians on the road, and even the occasional small cars that pass by are mostly goods transport or home delivery.
Chiku Inoue turned her head to look at Rei Fuguya: "It's time for class now, why is Fuguya here?"
"I took half a day off, just like you."
"Did you take half a day off because you were worried about me?"
"Yeah, who told you not to say anything."
"Well……"
"what happened?"
Jiang Gu Ling looked sideways at Inoue who was walking half a step away to his left. The quiet time was like the coconut-flavored coffee he had already drank in his hand.
"If you said that you were only a little touched just now, then the touch has been raised to five points now." With a lively and gentle smile on his face, Inoue Chifu looked back at Fuguya Rei, who was half a head taller than him: "Said Get up, are you alone, Fuguya? Matsuda and the others probably didn’t ask for leave. If you all ask for leave because of me alone, I will be very sorry.”
"Matsuda...he seems to be planning to come over too, but was held back by Jing."
"Huh? What?"
Inoue showed a confused expression.
"It's nothing. Now I can't catch up with the afternoon class when I go back. Do you want to drop by? Anyway, I'm on leave."
Inoue Chisuke, who is more tolerant in some small matters, naturally would not refute Futani Rei's face: "Well, I can do it."
Besides, the other party was the one who asked for leave to follow because she was worried about her.
Inoue Chitsu: "Aren't Furuya even curious about what happened?"
"Although I really want to know, but tell me when you want to talk."
"it is good."?
The thin middle-aged man on the opposite side is the person in charge of the Karasuma Group's funding matters, named Nakatani.He smiled kindly, like an elder who cared about the younger generation, asking about some trivial matters in life.The lines of the face are so thin that they are even sunken, but the eyes hidden under the black-rimmed glasses exude the shrewdness of a businessman.
