【Food Halberd Creation Tower】Winter Fog

one,

Takumi's eyes widened, the corners of his eyes were dry from the sun's steam, and his face was full of disbelief.

The scene in front of him could already be called a mental shock, causing him to move his fingers uncontrollably. Fortunately, he didn't lose his strength completely, otherwise the bag of freshly picked vegetables would have been scattered all over the place.

Under the most lively noon sun in front of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flora, he saw a familiar figure when the proprietress turned sideways to the other side to greet customers through the scaffolding set up by the fruit stand.

When the color in his heart was about to fade with time, it became fresh again in Takumi's vision at this time.

What's the name?Takmi opened his mouth, wanting to call that person, but whimpered twice in his throat, but couldn't make any definite sound.

The red-haired man was quietly picking potatoes with his head down. His bangs were long enough to block his eyes. He was wearing a gray jacket that looked a little dirty, but it couldn't hide his sharp and handsome face.Takmi could only vaguely distinguish the facial features of the other party who had matured in the shadows, and tried his best to cater to the outline of the man in the back of his mind, but he still couldn't recall more memories about the man, and shouted the name right next to his mouth .

Immediately afterwards, a scene that seemed to only exist in a movie appeared like this.

The noise in the busy city seemed to be silenced in Takmi's ears, and the tourists and buyers who came and went left only afterimages of shuttles. In his world, there was only the man and himself, and everything was stagnant, and everything was extraordinarily clear.

At the same time, the man seemed to feel something, and slowly raised his head in Takumi's eyes.The old scar on the brow brow confirmed his identity invisibly, and Takumi's heart twitched.The man put down the potato in his hand, raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled at Takmi. Although his beard was unshaven and unkempt, his smile was as bright as it was in high school.

He called out enthusiastically, shattering Takumi's astonishment.

"Yo, Takumi."

If you want to make a metaphor, this is simply a plot that only exists in shoujo manga. The hero and heroine in the library just took down the same book, and saw each other's faces through the gap in the bookshelf.The atmosphere of the food market seems to be incompatible with that kind of romance, and for Takmi, it is enough to draw an equal sign between the two.

The man's voice was so loud, it resounded through the entire memory, bursts of information flooded out of his mind, and Takumi completed the entire conditioned reflex logically, "Xing, Xingping?"

The man is Soshin Kohei.

The crush that Takmi Aldini hadn't had time to confess to at the high school graduation ceremony.

Takmi's heart seemed to be pinched tightly by an invisible hand, beating fast and heavy, as if singing a dull and bitter song hoarsely, and he was overwhelmed by the tune.

His hand finally let go, and the vegetables fell heavily on the ground, rolled out of the bag and scattered, like a firework, bursting on the aisle of the market.

"I didn't expect to meet you here, and I plan to go to your house in the afternoon to give you a surprise!" The traveler was ecstatic, and ran over from the other side of the booth when Takmi was indulging in the past and did not respond. , threw off the backpack and let it fall freely, threw himself on the body of his high school friend, and gave him a warm hug.

Takumi choked his mouth full of dust, coughed several times, and adjusted himself while Xinghei asked him if he was okay, and patted him on the back to help him breathe.He really never thought that they would meet again under such circumstances, and the unspeakable joy of intimate contact spread in a timely manner, so that he would not lose his composure or be seen by the other party.

"Let go of me! It's so strange for two big men to hug each other in public!" Takomi rubbed his face with Xinghei's stubble, he couldn't tell whether it was painful or itchy, and he smelled strange heat in his breath.

"I'm sorry, sorry, I'm so happy," Xingping let go of Takmi, saw the mess on the ground again, made a quick judgment, bent down to help his old friend pick up vegetables, "I seem to have scared you, Takmi Your reaction is still the same."

The gentleness of the human body and the frivolous language of the man made the chef who is now famous in the culinary world popular. Takomi was infected by Xinghei's emotions, and couldn't help but curled up his mouth and smiled, "You too. The same can be scary, Xinghei .”

Takumi stood to stabilize his mood, patted his wrinkled coat, and then followed Xinghei to clean up the ground.Tourists who stopped around for a while to observe the strange situation saw this, or offered to help, or continued their own purchases, the market was still lively.Takmi thanked the enthusiastic passers-by for their little effort, and Xingping moved quickly and skillfully picked vegetables, and quickly gathered the tomatoes that had rolled far away.

"Thank you, Xinghei."

Takmi seems to have found the feeling, and the pronunciation of these two words has become more and more proficient.

"You're welcome. By the way, is Isami at home? Also, can I stay at your place for a few days?"

"Why do you have so many questions at once? Isami is here. Of course, you can stay as long as you want. I believe Isami and my family will welcome you very much." Takmi answered one by one, He also thanked Xingping for his kindness in helping him carry the bag, and took him to the shaded direction outside the market where there were few people, "Speaking of which, why are you here?"

After Yuanyue graduated, Xingping couldn't wait to travel around the world alone without even attending the graduation ceremony. The past few years can be described as disappearing.Takmi only knows that he is practicing cooking. In the past two years, he occasionally heard this name mentioned in the cooking circle. Recently, he has talked less, and he has forgotten his work, otherwise he would not have almost lost his name just now. .

"It just happened to be here on a trip," Xingping held the travel bag behind his hand, extremely casual, lowered his head and happened to see the bag in Takmi's hand, and asked, "Shall we go back now? Have you finished shopping?"

"Hey, don't make decisions on your own! Shopping is not a problem, but you are a little self-conscious. Before going to my house, I think you should go to another place."

"Oh? Where?"

"Barbershop." Takomi looked Xinghei up and down, and finally stopped on the other side's face, making a positive judgment.

"Huh?" Xingping had been away from normal society for a long time, apparently not realizing why his old friend showed signs of getting angry.

"Let's not talk about whether the length of your bangs will affect your vision. The smell when you hugged me just now was really a bit... and your beard, I think it should at least be trimmed more neatly."

"Hahaha, well, it's not like I wanted to surprise you and Isami, so I came here without stopping, and I can't take care of such trivial matters. I listen to you, and I listen to you." The Italian said to the grooming The high demands have not changed, and Xingping is happy to accept the proposal.Xinghei hooked Takmi's shoulder and leaned on Takmi's right side, which was the smoothest movement he had made in high school, laughing and directing Takmi to lead the way.

"Speaking of Takumi, you haven't changed at all!"

It would be great if that was the case, Takumi thought to himself as he pushed away Xinghei's intimacy.

If Takumi hadn't changed at all, he would be as free as Xinghei Chuangzhen's buddies.But he can't do it now.

Years have passed, and the object of his crush reappeared in front of him, how could Takmi keep his heart calm.Besides, he doesn't know Xingping that much anymore, he doesn't care about Xingping that much anymore, and he doesn't know whether he still likes Xingping or not.

Listening to Xinghei talking about the anecdotes that happened on the way to Florence, the time to go to the barber shop also became shorter.Takmi pushed open the glass door silently, and suddenly caught a glimpse of himself in the reflection. It was exactly as Xingping said. He has always had this hairstyle, paid attention to maintaining his figure, and his skin is naturally good. Except for his facial features, his appearance is indeed similar to that of high school. The time difference is almost the same.

After explaining his intentions to the barber for Xingping, he took over the job of looking after Xingping's bags.There were not many people in the store today, except for a lady who was sitting in the distance perming her hair, there were no other customers. Takmi found a seat after getting permission.Looking at Xinghei's red hair drooping after being wet by the water, Takumi thought it was so funny.

"Takomi, I know you're snickering." At this moment, Xinghei had a ball of foam on his head.

"Because it's really funny."

"It's not like you haven't seen me like this before."

"Isn't it a long time since I saw you?"

The two chatted without nutrition like this.Suddenly Xinghei interjected: "Takomi, can you translate for me? Just say help me shave off my beard."

Takumi responded subconsciously, and blurted out fluent native language, then switched back to Japanese and asked Xingping, "I thought you were going to save it."

"Didn't you say that it should be trimmed? There's nothing wrong with being fresher, otherwise you have to get closer to Dad in advance."

Oh, Mr. Joichiro didn't know what he was feeling when he heard this. Takumi sat quietly and watched the whole process of Xinghei's image transformation.

The hairdresser is skilled, and the man's daily hairstyle can't find a few new tricks, and soon Xingping has a new look.He looked at himself in the mirror quite satisfied, touched his smooth chin, turned to look for Takmi, with a proud face, "I haven't changed much now!"

No, he was very much like that airy brat in Yuan Yueshi.

Takumi looked at Xingping for a while, and finally choked out a sentence: "Okay, pay quickly, let's go home. Everyone will be pleasantly surprised."

TBC.
