After I divorced from chaos step

I noticed that the eyes of the middle-aged man had been on the black card in my hand, and I quickly put the card into my pocket.

"This is the discount card I just bought at a nearby toy store."

Wealth should not be exposed, let alone this wealth is not mine.

Then I heard the middle-aged man lower his head in thought, and whisper to himself, "...you even handed in this?"

I didn't understand what he meant. I checked the time on my phone. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. I had to find a job before dark and pay part of my salary in advance to cover the cost of going to the hotel at night.

Now I probably know where I should look.

"Sir, I have to leave beforehand. If you want to find your daughter, you'd better call the police to prevent her from encountering any bad guys."

I am not alarmist, Yokohama is a very complicated place, and there are more people and traffickers than other cities.

"Well, thank you." He nodded politely, "I guess she was just playing around and got lost nearby."

Judging by his appearance, he is not in a hurry?

Aren't you afraid of the people and dealers in Yokohama?

Looking up, above the door is a delicate and beautiful signboard like an oil painting [Lihai Xiaoguang].

The inscription is from Yanagi Renji, and the iris in the background is from Yukimura Seiichi.

Nothing has changed.

After more than half a year, I stood in front of this coffee shop again, wanting to express some emotion, but I couldn't come up with an adjective after thinking for a long time.

I am no stranger to this store, but I still have a sense of intimacy.

The moment I stood on my feet, I remembered the scene when I first walked in here.

Pushing open the door, the wind chime made a tinkling sound.

Marui Bunta is sitting on the sofa, teaching a few children to make models.

As before, wearing casual overalls and chewing bubble gum.

He seemed to feel that I was looking at him and raised his eyes.

Snapped.

Bubblegum blown up.

He pursed his lips and gave me a kind smile.

"You look in good spirits." Fumta Marui poured me a glass of lemonade without ice, "Better than before."

I took a sip and looked around the store.

The scale is small and the location is very remote.Compared with the main store he opened in Kamakura, the business is really sluggish.

But he always nests here.

"Yokohama is a very inclusive city, and I like it here."——he explained it to me.

I shook the cup: "It's okay, I slept well and ate well today, so I'm in good spirits."

"Why did you come here today?" Marui Fumta said with a smile, "You seldom come here after marriage, your husband likes to cling to you very much—why, don't you answer the phone?"

He pointed to my pocket.

In my pocket, my phone was vibrating all the time, and I didn't need to look to know it was from Luanbu or my mother.Definitely still trying to talk to me about the divorce.

...do not want to talk to these two people at all.

But if they can contact me, it means that they have escaped from the ducks.

"Go ahead, it might be very important." Marui Bunta's tone became very serious, "It's very disappointing not to be able to get in touch sometimes."

I suddenly thought of Nakahara Chuya.

I've emailed him, called him, but he hasn't received anything.

He said I said the opposite.That means he emailed me, called me, but I didn't respond to him.

……how is this possible.

But he's not a liar either.

On the day of my wedding, he was willing to be the best man. It can be understood that he followed Grandma Hanamaru's instructions.Giving me a gun as a gift can also be understood as a casual behavior caused by the unruly character of being a mafia and drunk.But then he saved me, sent me to the hospital, bought me fruit and ice cream, stopped the police from questioning me in order to give me a good rest, sent me to the sky to play yesterday, and showed me the copycat version of "Meteor", done Give me breakfast, and now I still have the black card he lent me in case I don't have money...

If you can do so many things, you shouldn't hate me.

and also--

I looked at Bunta Marui and stared at him for a long time.

He was stared at by my focused gaze, chewed the bubble gum in his mouth, and scratched his head.

"Qingxi sauce, why are you looking at me like that? Look at your phone."

"Marui, I didn't say hello to you when I went abroad in the third year of junior high school, because the matter was urgent, so I'm sorry." I paused, and finally asked, "When I was studying in Russia, did you receive Have you seen the email I sent you?"

I didn't even dare to ask why he didn't respond to my emails.

My intuition tells me that it will be the same situation as Zhongyuanzhong.

"No." Fumta Marui said calmly, "I sent you an email asking if you were used to living there. If you didn't reply, I won't send it again."

"That's it."

"I am a Buddha. If you talk to me, I will talk to you. If you don't talk to me, I won't take the initiative to find you." Marui Bunta picked up the kettle and added some lemonade to my cup, "But Yukimura If so, you should explain it to him.”

"Huh?" I looked at him suspiciously.

"Before he..." Marui Fumta pursed his lips, hesitated to speak, and finally chose to change the topic, "Qingxi sauce, there will be a tennis friendly match at Lishan Elementary School tomorrow to celebrate Boys' Day, our Lihai Tennis Club All the players will go, do you want to come and play together?"

If divorce hasn't been mentioned yet, I will definitely accompany Luanbu and won't go.

But now, I decided to go.I also want to explain clearly to Yukimura that there must be something wrong with the part about me and Yukimura in the sudden going abroad and breaking up, and the topic that Marui stopped in time just now.

"Pick up the phone." Marui reminded again.

I took out my phone, and the caller ID was my mother.

... My brain hurts.

I didn't press the answer button until I turned down the volume on the phone again and moved it a fist away from my ear.

"Yuanqingxi!" Mom's high-pitched voice came from the phone, "Where did you go?"

"... went to find a job."

"Why are you getting a proper divorce? Come back to me!"

"Mom, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up first and call later, I'm interviewing—"

"Mom, give me the call." A chaotic voice came from the phone.

"Qingxixi, can you hear me? You can hear me, right?" His voice was much lower than that of my mother, and I brought the phone closer to my ear.

"can hear."

"I don't want a divorce. I can explain what you said. Don't divorce me, Qingxixi, shall we go home?"

"Explain what?" I don't want to hear the wise man's explanation at all.

Tosi also said a lot of beautiful words and explained a lot back then, but what happened later?

Just ask how many words are true.

"Sorry, I don't want to hear your explanation." I said calmly, "You and that guy know each other and are sworn enemies, but keep me in the dark like a fool, am I not worthy to know the truth? Don't say it is for my own good, For my own good, you should tell me, not to hide from me, you two use bottle caps to pass back and forth to make small moves. You know you are married to me, don't you?"

I thought again of the old couple I met at the convenience store.

I can vividly remember the words and deeds of both of them.

I remember every word they said, every little action.

There is also that sentence, the most basic respect in marriage is honesty and truth.

"Qingxixi, I... don't want a divorce or sign a contract, please."

He held back for a long time, still consuming with me.

I sighed softly: "Ranbu-san, the marriage you understand is probably just eating and sleeping together, not facing problems together. Please calm down. Don't come to me until you finish signing."

"Call me, Qingxi, you—" Mom's voice came again, and I hung up the phone in time.

In fact, I have more cruel words, which I didn't say to Luanbu.

—— Fukuzawa Yukichi has the ability to help others stabilize their abilities, why didn't you tell me, and didn't ask him to help me?

—Ask yourself, if you hadn't opened that box, would I have gotten the power?Will it look like this now?

These words are too cruel, I don't want to talk to him.

He was just a child back then, probably out of curiosity.The uncontrollable ability really made me very hard, but in the final analysis, it was because I didn't have a strong heart.

I can't blame him all.

There is actually only one reason why I am determined to divorce Ranbu—he lied to me.

I can't trust him completely anymore, and I can't help it in the future.Because I can't tell which of his words are true and which are false.

"Are you divorced?"

After a while, Marui Bunta asked.

I simply turned on the airplane mode, because I knew that my mother would definitely call again and again.

"Well, I filed for divorce, and he hasn't signed the agreement yet, but I have." I drank the lemonade in my glass, and then I felt that I had replenished the water lost by talking just now, "...don't ask the reason gone."

Marui Fumta shrugged: "I didn't intend to ask."

"That's good."

"This is your business. You can make your own decision. If you want to talk, I am free at any time. If you need a lawyer, I can also introduce you to a Changsheng lawyer."

I shook my head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't think it should be necessary."

Ranpo and I don't have property disputes or child custody disputes, it's just the dissolution of the relationship brought about by that marriage.

It would be too sad if such a simple marriage is so troublesome that it needs a lawsuit to leave.

Marui asked again, "You just said you were looking for a job?"

——The point is on point, this is the purpose of my coming here today.

"I really need a job right now. Are you short of people here? Can you hire me?"

Of course, I won't force it.If he has no shortage of people here, I'll try my luck at other coffee shops.

"It just so happens that Ms. Zi is on maternity leave, and the store lacks a waiter. Your health certificate is still with me, and you can start working today. I will sign a contract with you later."

The reason why the health certificate is here is because more than half a year ago, in order to pursue random steps with sweets, I worked here and learned how to make desserts.

After chasing Ranpo, I left here.

"Qingxi sauce, I'm actually very happy."

"Huh?" I caught the work apron Marui threw at me.

"Because you came here for yourself this time, not for others."

... come for yourself, not for others.

indeed.

Last time it was to please Luanpo, this time it was to earn living expenses and live on.

"Ahem, work hard." Marui Fumta cleared his throat, and made a decapitating gesture to me, "Don't be complained, you will be fired~"

"I see."

I put on my apron, put on my badge, and officially went to work.

Bunta Marui is the boss, and he doesn't do anything other than make limited supply of cold brew coffee and play with the children who come to the store.The store manager Azusa Enomoto is on maternity leave, and the acting store manager is a handsome dark-skinned guy named Toru Amuro.Another part-time clerk asked for leave and didn't show up today.

There are very few people in this point shop, only a few adult customers sporadically.

Most of them are children from the neighborhood who come here because they like to play with Marui. Marui often invites them to taste the newly launched snacks and play with them with toys.

I like such a gentle environment very much.

I also decided to start working hard.

"Sir, your Americano."

When I walked to the corner and saw the scene in front of me, my relaxed mood was instantly destroyed.

A little girl with long blond hair was sleeping on the bench. She fell asleep after eating a piece of milk cheese. Marui asked me to cover her with a blanket because she was afraid that she would be cold.

Now the blanket fell to the floor and her legs were bent.

And the young man who ordered an Americano had his mobile phone attached to the girl's skirt, moving slowly.

"What are you doing?"

I grabbed his wrist, trying to grab his phone.

"Let go! It's none of your business!"

He pulled his neck and said in a rough voice, "If you don't let go, I will sue you!"

"Delete me what's on your phone!"

How dare you secretly take a picture of a little girl in front of me, it is extremely shameless.

If Tuosi really wanted to purify the world, he should go around every day, crack down on pornography and illegal photography.

"Meddling fellow!"

He suddenly gave me a hard push with his other elbow, trying to escape.

The coffee cup in my hand was not stable, and the hot coffee spilled out.

boom.

The cup also shattered on the ground.

The girl opened her sleepy eyes and stared at us intently.

"Come on." I raised my head, grabbed the man's hand, and snatched his mobile phone, "Since you refuse to delete it, I can only turn it into ashes."

In fact, I would rather turn him into ashes.
