[Comprehensive] Strategy game of self-delusion

【Occasions in Chuya, Central Plains】

"Mr. Nakaya, are you coming to Tokyo?!"

This is a message from a day ago, more precisely, a message from 8 hours ago.

From Mr. Nakaya, a call at 11 o’clock, Rika received the call when she was still in the company. When she saw the caller ID, she even suspected that she had read it wrong. After the "internship" in Hong Kong and black, Mr. Nakaya kept her mobile phone The number in the phone seems to have become a decoration, and there is no more call.

If it weren't for the gift that was sent every once in a while as a make-up gift, Lihua really felt that Mr. Chuya could forget her.

After sending the address of the company to Mr. Nakaya, I fell asleep with anticipation, but the next morning I still ignored this matter because of the busy work, and waited until the assistant lady knocked on her office , she belatedly tidied up the documents on the table, then took out a bag of tea leaves that hadn't moldy from the window, and made a cup of tea.

She herself doesn't like to drink these things, she just finds them bitter and has no aftertaste of sweetness after bitterness.

Lihua felt that Mr. Nakaya might not like it very much, but in order to show her respect for Mr. Nakaya, she still used the simplest steps (put tea leaves-pour hot water) to make a cup of tea.

Then he sat on the sofa opposite the small coffee table and waited for Mr. Nakaya.

Finally, the characteristic rattling sound of leather shoes stepping on the tiles came from behind the door.

The door was opened, and Lihua took a quick look at Mr. Chuya who hadn't seen him for a long time. She was about to stand up for a moment, but she sat down firmly and said respectfully, "Mr. Chuya, long time no see."

Zhong Yuanzhong also wore a well-fitting suit, habitually put on a black cape, and a top hat. He lifted his hat slightly, "Ah, long time no see."

He came here today not for the reason of "suddenly interested, so I came to have a look", but purely because of the order of Chief Mori, to discuss some cooperation.

Glancing at the steaming cup of tea she put on the table, Zhong Yuan Zhong also stood in front of her, and across a small coffee table, he asked, "Tea for me?"

[Mr. Nakaya immediately showed a disgusted expression, it seems that he really hates drinking tea. 】

Of course Rika knows that Mr. Chuya likes all kinds of alcohol, [However, if you invite Mr. Chuya to drink directly, it may remind Mr. Chuya of unpleasant memories. 】

After all, the memory of that time still has sequelae, which can be seen from the [compensatory gift] that has not been broken for several years.

"Well, why don't you make a cup of coffee for Mr. Chuya?" She asked. There is a coffee room in the company, but she doesn't usually drink it, so she just forgot.

I don't know why I suddenly remembered that bag of tea leaves that had never been opened.

Zhong Yuanzhong also shook his head dispensably, "No need."

At this point, the atmosphere between the two fell into an awkward and stiff state.

It was only then that Lihua remembered to invite him to sit down, and said slowly, "Mr. Chuya, can we stop sending those gifts?"

The young man turned his head and asked her lightly, "Don't you like it?"

It's not a matter of liking it or not, Lihua quickly waved her hand, "It's just an anklet, the thing that Mr. Chuya sent before is already enough for compensation."

Speaking of this, she was a little unhappy, "When we were chatting before, Mr. Chuya deliberately avoided this topic every time he talked about this matter. Now, in person, it is finally impossible to escape."

From this sentence, the atmosphere between the two seemed to soften a little.

Just on the surface, it seems to be more dignified.

Zhongyuan Zhong also folded his arms around his chest, feeling ashamed and indignant that he had been picked on, but on the face he pretended nothing happened, denying, "It just happens that we accidentally changed the subject every time, it's just a coincidence."

[Sister Hongye clearly told me that girls will be very happy when they receive gifts, why does Lihua react like this? 】

Nakahara, who has never been in love, and Nakaya is also in deep confusion today.

"Ah, no matter what." Li Hua said, "Mr. Chuya is not allowed to give any more gifts."

She moved a little closer to him, leaned forward, her voice was as she had repeatedly described in her memory, her soft voice seemed to appear in a dream, "I finally know..."

"Why is Mr. Dazai always thinking about Mr. Chuya's bank card?"

"???"

"!!" Zhong Yuan couldn't believe his ears, and asked subconsciously, "Do you know Dazai?"

Lihua said honestly, "Mr. Dazai will come to play with me occasionally, he is my friend." She looked at his face carefully, as if he was not so angry, and then dared to continue, "I just came here yesterday, it seems that The detective agency seems to be very busy recently."

Nakahara Chuya has not accepted this fact for a while, "Is it your friend?"

And then he hears the biggest joke of the year, "Hmmm, dated a few years ago."

"Mr. Nakaya, what's the matter with you?" Lihua who was held by the wrist asked blankly, not understanding his sudden movement, the young man's strength was well controlled, it wouldn't make her feel pain, but he couldn't break free either.

As Dazai Osamu's former partner and the person who hates Dazai Osamu the most, Nakahara Nakahara can guarantee that Dazai has no good intentions if he keeps appearing in front of her after breaking up.

At least, he has never seen Dazai pay attention to a woman he has dated.

That man looked gentle, but his emotions were thin, otherwise he wouldn't have betrayed the port mafia.

He almost immediately wanted her to stay away from Dazai, but he didn't know why he restrained the words from blurting out, but said, "Do you have a lover?"

"No, I mean..." After thinking for a while, he gave up looking for any reason, and said to himself, "That is, do you have a boyfriend?"

Lihua said, "...No."

She had a vague premonition that the current topic was a bit different from what she had imagined at the beginning, and she logically said that she should start talking about work with Mr. Nakaya now, and she also wanted to let Mr. Nakaya see how much she had improved in the past few years. Ability to work.

At the very least, Mr. Nakaya must be impressed and taken aback.

However, she did not expect that she was the one who fell into this emotion in the end. She was silent for a while, "Mr. Chuya, is that what I mean?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also took off his hat, put it on her head, pressed it down, and couldn't see the pair of clear golden eyes, so he (pretended) calmly said, "Almost."

"I mean, want to date?"

***

【Occasion of Osamu Dazai】

Mr. Dazai discovered what was being pursued by Mr. Chuya for some reason.

Accidentally mentioning Mr. Dazai's final confession in front of Mr. Nakaya gave her considerable vigilance. In order to avoid certain situations, she never mentioned Mr. Nakaya in front of Mr. Dazai again.

But a few days later, he was suddenly asked by Mr. Dazai, 【Rika, did you agree to Chuya's pursuit? 】

When she saw this message, Lihua almost dropped her phone to the ground, thinking whether she should ask Mr. Dazai how he knew, or should she just answer no and saw the next message.

【Wait a moment. 】

Just when she was wondering what this sentence meant, the door of the office was opened.

Because Mr. Dazai often comes, the assistant is also used to letting Mr. Dazai into her office directly.

There was a "click", that was the sound of the door being locked, and all of Lihua's mood became helpless at this moment, "Mr. Dazai! I heard it, why did you lock the door?"

Dazai withdrew his hand behind his back, wasting all his care, he didn't expect the door lock to be closed so loudly.

But he still said innocently, "Because I want to talk to Lihua about something, I don't want to be disturbed by others."

He walked forward, put his elbows on the desk, propped up his upper body and looked at the woman with long sandalwood hair, and said in a cute tone, "Now, Lihuajiang can tell me the question just now .”

"The answer to the question just now is no." Lihua said, "Mr. Chuya didn't urge me either, he just said that I've thought it through and let me tell him."

Lihua looked at Dazai, but finally couldn't hold back, "Mr. Dazai, don't make such an exaggerated expression of relief!"

Osamu Dazai said, "I'm genuinely relieved."

But it still sounded like words used to deceive her and for fun.It was rare for her to show a little anger, "Mr. Dazai."

"I didn't play tricks on you."

What she hadn't said yet was answered.

Osamu Dazai is rarely so serious, most of the time he is like a gust of wind that cannot be grasped, no matter how tightly he grasps it, he will slip away with his own will, and no one can catch him.

Unless he stays voluntarily.

"Lihua." He said with a slight smile, "Since you have to consider whether to agree to Zhongye, why don't you also consider me?"

For a moment, Rika wanted to tell Mr. Dazai, stop joking.

However, seeing his expression, she was speechless.

Osamu Dazai got up from the desk, stood up straight, and then squatted down.

Squat down? ?

Just as Lihua was about to get up from the office chair, she felt the warmth of another person on her ankle, and a thought flashed in her mind.

【Could it be that Mr. Dazai wants to do what Mr. Chuya did...】

There was a distant but familiar feeling of something falling from the ankle.

【Mr. Dazai, it should be said that Mr. Nakaya's former partner, are they called the 'double black'?But if there is too much tacit understanding in this aspect... it seems that there is something wrong. 】

Dazai stood up, clapped his hands, looked like he was solving a big problem, and smiled showing his white teeth, "I've been upset with that anklet for a long time, since they are both suitors, let's stand on the same starting line. "

"Surreptitiously put something on you like a mouse in the dark."

"But I don't allow it."
