Taking advantage of the welcome party, Matsuda poured beer down one cup after another.The side dishes on the table are hardly eaten, but there are several empty beer bottles scattered at the feet.

The seniors of the mobile team's explosive/explosive/object disposal team took revenge in spite of their bad intentions. After all, they were severely humiliated just at noon, and this kid was favored by the general manager and personally invited. The only chance to come back is now.

The seniors in the Explosives Department hooked up their shoulders and said words of welcome and praise, filling up the glass in front of Matsuda time and time again.Matsuda himself was deliberately indulging, and swallowed all the parts that could be rejected.

The golden draft beer has a light malt aroma, and the bitter taste hits the taste buds, which just matches the mood at the moment.The white foam floats on the top layer and dissolves quickly, like ambiguous emotions appear and quickly dissipate, fleeting.

Hagiwara Kenji was also surrounded by people, but the gender was changed.

The long-haired man with high EQ was a celebrity among the girls during the police academy. Now that he is having a social meeting, many cute girls from the traffic class come up to chat with him and invite him to sit at their table.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it this time~" Hagiwara smiled and blinked, and apologetically coaxed away the girls who came to strike up a conversation in the sound of disappointment.

"Huh~?" Imitating Kenji's tone and prolonging the ending slightly, Inoue Chisuke put the salmon into his mouth, and looked at Hagiwara with ridicule and scrutiny in his eyes: "Kenji is unexpectedly well-behaved today. Accept the olive branch handed over by the other party."

"Hey?" Hagiwara Kenji's smile paused, his drooping eyes were full of innocence.

"Well, in the last month..." Looking up and drinking the beer with only one layer left in the glass, Chizuka Inoue seriously recalled it for a while, and said, "I didn't pay much attention, so I didn't accept chatting up. But before It's true that the second year of research is always playing with girls, and even the instructors and the others give you bad comments such as attracting bees and butterflies."

"Rumor!" Hagiwara Kenji raised his arms and crossed them in front of him, making a big cross, with the corners of his mouth curled down, with a pitiful look like a big golden retriever who has been wronged: "It's definitely a rumor!"

"Besides, Qian Shujiang, you don't even care about my activities. I thought our relationship was super good."

"How can I not care about you, but there is no need to even have a private life..."

"It's not my private life. Qian Shujiang is so indifferent to me, I'm already sad."

"Tsk..." The smiling woman had squeezed out a distasteful monosyllable from the corner of her mouth, she put her chin on one hand, and gave Hagiwara a dangerous smile: "Really, today's coquetry is full. Kenji If you lie again, I will be angry."

Hagiwara Kenji collapsed visibly to the naked eye, shrinking on the seat like a deflated balloon.

"However, for the sake of Yan Er being super good to me, I will care about you more in the future."

"Okay☆~" The man who immediately regained his strength straightened his back instantly, and with a bright smile on his face, he threw a wink at Chizuka Inoue.The happy mood rose rapidly, and the eyes began to shoot out little stars. It was difficult for girls to resist acting like a baby.

If you are a domesticated and reliable subordinate, you need to hit a stick first and then give a candy. When facing a girl you like, you also need some careful skills to firmly attract the other party's attention.

Hagiwara knew too well how to quickly attack Chizuka Inoue's calm temper - make trouble appropriately, and then show weakness and act like a baby in time.Take the time to keep Chizuka Inoue's mood swings in a good state--the mood swings that only happen to him.

No longer caring about Hagiwara who was trying to be coquettish, Inoue Chisuke turned her head to look at Matsuda on the other side, her slightly wrinkled brows and eyes were full of worry.

"Come on, Matsuda, let's finish this drink!" The senior from the Explosives Department, who was clearly drunk, held his beer glass high, his face flushed with the characteristic blush after drinking: "You boy, you have a good meal at noon to embarrass us!" After saying that, he tilted the beer bottle in his hand and poured the glass that Matsuda had just drunk to the brim again.

One cup, two cups, Matsuda drank all the beer poured into his cup by the other party without saying a word.Although he hasn't shown signs of being drunk yet, it's enough to make people worry.

Seeing that they were about to drink their fourth cup, Inoue Chitsu finally couldn't help but speak out.

"Ah, are you the police officer from the Explosives Department?" She clasped her hands together beside her face, showing a lively smile, "I heard from the instructor that last year the police officers from the Explosives Department acted resolutely. In a few hours, the bomb buried in the Mihua Mall was eliminated in one fell swoop. It’s really amazing, can you tell me about the situation at that time?”

The man who was praised paused when he clinked glasses, scratched his head and showed a shy smile: "Oh, where is it..."

The drinking was interrupted, and the seniors from the Explosive Department, who originally planned to hold down Matsuda for a few more drinks, were coaxed by their sweet smiles and pretentious gestures, and they were talking about the tense and exciting scene at that time with joy.

Should it be said that he is a top student who is favored by the instructors to the limit?The soft facial features that make people let go of their vigilance, paired with adoring eyes written on them, coaxed the police officers at the explosive site to completely forget about drinking in just a few minutes.But the most important thing is that even if the other party obviously exaggerated, Chizuka Inoue did not show a trace of perfunctory or disdain at all.Listen carefully to every word the other party says, give analysis and insights at the right time, and know how to throw out words of surprise or praise at the right time.

Freed from the hustle and bustle, Matsuda glanced sideways at the woman who rescued him without authorization.Looking at the bright smile on Chizuka Inoue's face, he couldn't help but think, it's only natural that such a person would be liked by others.

This attitude of worship is really an eyesore.

It's a shame to solve something in half an hour. If it was him, 10 minutes would be enough.So please look at him with this pair of eyes, why look at other people.

Self-serving to refill the glass, Matsuda finally raised his head and drank the fourth glass alone, which was interrupted by Inoue Chizuru.During the lunch break, the vigor and vigor that defeated the entire explosion department had long since disappeared without a trace. Matsuda's face was expressionless, and the eyebrows that were raised in the past seemed to have lost their strength, and the eyes that were covered with drunkenness were rolling down. It was the loss that I had never felt when I found out that I was snatched away by the golden retriever bastard.

After the orientation meeting was over, Matsuda, who returned to the single room dormitory, was already reeking of alcohol.

He was still conscious, but he wished he was drunk.

Under the stimulation of excessive alcohol, there was a bone-piercing pain in the temple.The man collapsed on the bed turned sideways and looked at the opened mobile phone photo album in his hand under the moonlight. On the screen that lit up was Chizuka Inoue looking up at the sky under the cherry blossom tree that he secretly took during the graduation ceremony.The woman who never liked makeup applied a rare delicate makeup on that day. It was different from the tranquility in the usual days, and it was as bright as the beauty of the morning sun.The smile with red lips parted was a sharp arrow resting on a full-stringed bow, piercing his heart with a whistling sound.

[Ding dong——]

The text message prompt box that popped up suddenly covered the face of the woman in the photo, and the sender's name had a yellow asterisk in front of it, which was a specially marked correspondent.Matsuda subconsciously tightened his grip on the phone, his pupils widened slightly.I can't tell what kind of mood I am in, I am surprised and happy, and I am in a hurry, but the momentary throbbing of my heart is 100% certain.

"Jinping, are you asleep?"

Fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, and the man who wrote the message very quickly edited and edited the phone for a few minutes.My mind was in a mess, and I had been brewing for a long time what I wanted to say, but in the end I didn't send out half a word.

There was no reply to the message, and it quickly fell silent, leaving only a long silence.

Staring at the phone screen in a daze, the short five words sent by the other party were enough to arouse thousands of thoughts. For the first time, Matsuda felt that he was inferior.

Not receiving a reply from Matsuda, Inoue Chisuke sighed helplessly and closed the phone.She deliberately went to the 24-hour convenience store across the street from the dormitory area to buy pills for sobering up and relieving hangovers, and she was standing outside Matsuda Jinpei's room at the moment.

Thinking that maybe the other party had already fallen asleep, she didn't want to bother her anymore, so she hung the bag of sobering pills in her hand on the handle outside the door of Matsuda Zhen's bungalow, turned and left.

Because police officer Megure gave him some work, Chizuru Inoue left the dormitory early the next morning and sat in the office of the Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigation Section.When passing Matsuda's room, the bag containing the pills was hanging outside Matsuda's door, still motionless.

After thinking for a while, Chizuka Inoue also put the sandwiches that she planned to take to the office for breakfast into a transparent plastic bag.Based on what she knew about Matsuda, this willful guy would definitely go to work on an empty stomach today.

During the lunch break, Inoue Chitsuke and Police Officer Megure sat in the cafeteria together, eating and chatting about work. When they were about to finish eating, Matsuda Jinhei yawned and sat directly opposite Inoue Chizume with a plate.

There was a faint smell of alcohol emanating from the blue explosives department's exclusive police uniform, and the originally fluffy and soft curly hair also turned up rebelliously.The man with the black and blue marks accumulated under his eyes due to lack of rest is like a cat with static electricity, and his messy hair can't be suppressed no matter what.

Matsuda just lowered his head to eat, while Inoue Chizuru held his chin and glanced at Matsuda who was sitting opposite from time to time. There was no word between them.Police officer Mu Mu, who had been married for some years, seemed to understand something. He gave a fake cough, picked up the plate, said a word and left, and left the cafeteria alone.

Chizuka Inoue didn't urge her, but just sat quietly and waited for Matsuda to eat.Naturally, she could see that Matsuda seemed to be looking for her on something.

She rested her chin, looked at Matsuda who was wolfing down and wanted to get rid of lunch as soon as possible, and said, "Speaking of which, what about Kenji, didn't he have dinner with you today?"

Matsuda replied without raising his head: "I told him that I had some personal matters that I had to deal with, so I pushed him away."

"Hmm... a personal matter that has to be dealt with..."

After the meal, Matsuda led him out of the Metropolitan Police Department building—the aisle of the Metropolitan Police Department, where people come and go, is really not a good place for conversation.The broad-leaved trees that have been planted for some years cast a shadow. The majesty of the Metropolitan Police Department makes pedestrians subconsciously avoid a certain distance when passing by. Now is the time for meals and lunch breaks, and colleagues rarely pass by here.

"Does Jinpei have something to say to me? The private matter you just said that you have to deal with... probably has something to do with me." Chizuka Inoue tilted her head, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, but her expression was serious .

"Ah..." Pulled off the button at the top of the neckline with his hands, he was a little out of breath because of nervousness: "It has something to do with you."

After tossing and turning all night without sleep, what I found hanging at the door when I went out early in the morning was a reassurance, a warm paw that soothed restless hounds, and a gentleness that straightened out the reverse fur of a cat in defense.

After finally mustering up the courage, I finally made up my mind.

A man who is emotionally arrogant and awkward is a butterfly about to break out of his cocoon, weaving a chrysalis for himself, and after going through the pain of transformation, he will become a mature and reliable man.

Matsuda Jinhei stretched his neck and let go of the hand that was pulling the neckline. He looked at Chizume Inoue with a serious expression, and his dark eyes were full of Chizume Inoue.

"Qianshu, do you remember what I said back then?"

"Huh?" Inoue Chiku pursed her lips, a little uncertain.Matsuda had talked to her a lot, and she knew exactly which sentence Matsuda was asking: "You mean...?"

"When I asked you to come to the Explosion Department with me, I said that I would take good care of you. Although the original words were not like that, this probably meant it."

"Well... Zhenping did say so."

"I will always take care of you in the future, so Qian Shu, can you stop treating me like a child."

"Huh?" Looking at the other party's serious expression with some dissatisfaction, Inoue Chisuke showed a blank expression: "I didn't treat you like a child."

"I still said no." I couldn't help grinning, and the speed of my speech became a little faster, probably because I was really anxious: "You never lose your temper with me, and you are completely tolerant of letting children mess around. On the contrary It’s because of that guy Hagi that you’re so emotional.”

"It's okay to vent your emotions on me occasionally. It's okay to be angry, or play petty temper like an ordinary girl. I'm a bit dull, and I will try my best to be caring in the future. So...!"

The breeze blows and the leaves rustle.Matsuda paused, and his impulsive mind calmed down.Time was slowed down, and the fluorescent butterfly flapped its wings and flew over the treetops, without disturbing the tranquility under the tree.

"Really..." Thinking about something for a moment, Matsuda breathed a sigh of relief, and every nerve in his body relaxed: "Anxiety is a taboo." (1)

The corners of the mouth were slightly raised, and the arrogance climbed up the corners of the eyes again. The mature charm after many years has begun to take shape at this time.

"Rely on me more in the future, and I will take good care of you."

The leaves sway neatly under the scorching sun, which is the trace of the wind.

The fountain pool in the outer courtyard of the Metropolitan Police Department rippled, which was the ripple of water.

The silent gaze between the two is a signal of heartbeat.

Don't break, don't stand.
