"Huh? Of course."
"I think since it's a bento competition, it should not only look good, but also taste good. How about I make Lena's bento this time, and Aoi you make Niya's bento?"
Hearing this, Natsuki Aoi thought it made sense. Hetty had been busy with work before, so she usually ordered takeaway for Niya for dinner. After getting acquainted with him, she kept Niya to herself In fact, Heti is not good at cooking. Before working as an idol, she would often prepare lunch and evening meals for Niya.
It just so happened that Li Na might be tired of her own taste, so it would be nice to have a change.
"Okay, no problem." Aoi Natsuki said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
On the other hand, Heidi had a surprise on her face. Is she really so happy?
"Well! Then get ready!" Hetty took off her coat and gloves. The heating in the room was warm enough. She walked to the sink and began to wash her hands. "There are disposable gloves at home." ?"
"Yes, I'll get it for you."
"Ah."
The questions and answers between the two were very routine. After a few minutes, the glutinous rice that had been cooked in advance jumped to the option of keeping warm, and the next step was to knead the rice balls.
Heidi's craftsmanship is better than Natsuki Aoi's imagined. She is very skillful in kneading rice balls, and she hasn't become unfamiliar with her idol career at all. Perhaps this is her talent.
Natsuki Aoi looked sideways at her as she lowered her head and concentrated on doing something. It was amazing to say that before Natsuki Aoi didn't know Hetty about the job of an idol, the key words in his mind might be fiction, fantasy, etc. , would give him a sense of unrealism, just like those YouTube anchors, but since he met Hetty, he found that an idol engaged in stage activities actually brought him a very real feeling, in daily life Also, this is why Aoi Natsuki regards her as a confidant.
Because she lives a real life and is a person who is really trying to pursue what she wants.
Aoi Natsuki respects such people, so the exchanges between the two gradually increased. If it wasn't because Hetty suddenly expressed a crush on him, he might still feel that Hetty can be placed in the In the position of my closest friend.
Natsuki Aoi proposed that the two of you are making bento together here today. According to the rules set with other people before, a date invitation is only counted if a girl proposes it, so today is not a date. Without a date, there is no way continue.
Natsuki Aoi has never been in a hurry, but after Hayakawa was promoted to S rank recently, he began to feel a little anxious. It belongs to the fact that the dishes have been served, but the rice is still not cooked in the rice cooker. The waiting at this time is undoubtedly tormenting .
Natsuki Aoi thought for a moment, but couldn't help but ask, "Hetty, which day do you want to set the date?"
"Hey! Today..." Hetty looked a little surprised.
"this?"
Heti seemed to come to his senses suddenly, and immediately kept a certain distance from Natsuki Aoi, and said nervously: "I, I see, I need to confirm the time with the manager again, please."
"No, but to trouble you." Aoi Natsuki said with a smile, the relationship between the two is really harmonious.
When two people who are living a real life get together, the style of painting changes from a Japanese light novel to an urban youth drama all of a sudden.
When it was nine o'clock, Lina in her pajamas slowly walked in from the dining room door, rubbing her eyes sleepily, and when she saw the two busy people in the kitchen, she immediately tilted her head cutely, trotted over, and asked in sign language Is there anything I can do to help.
The previous estrangement between the two was also eased in the process of making bento, as if they had returned to the state when they got along at the beginning.
Natsuki Aoi felt the earnestness in Heidi, and she wanted to do the best as long as she did it, especially if it was done for the two children, so she focused more on it.
Lina didn't eat breakfast, so she simply became a food taster, eating a little bit of each piece, and today she was a real treat, stuffing a mouthful of mandarin fish into her mouth, um...satisfied happiness, Lina closed her eyes, Enjoy the taste buds brought by this delicacy.
Hetty was helping her. Vegetable vegetable juice is generally not liked by children, so it is better to pour it on the rice balls.
Finally, after another hour, all kinds of lunches range from fried shrimp to beef in sauce, and there are also vegetarian dishes. Ordinary Japanese families often eat green peppers, mainly because they are nutritious and cheap, but children don’t like them, so they finally choose God. Jing Xiashu replaced it with carrots and broccoli, and matched it with a lunch box to make the best design. After arranging the plates, two boxes of exquisite bento were completed.
"Oh..." Li Na stood on tiptoe and stood between the two of them, looking at the two boxes of bento in surprise, not only looked good, but also had an appetite when asked.
"It was very successful, so let's do this in school tomorrow." Aoi Natsuki straightened his back and smiled.
"Yeah!" Hetty couldn't hide her excitement, her eyes were shining brightly.
"It's just..." Hetty suddenly noticed something, and as the two of them were distracted, they realized how many ingredients were on the table at this time. This... I'm afraid there are enough ingredients for noon.
"Trouble, take some back at noon."
"it is good……"
Hetty and Natsuki Aoi looked helplessly at the table of ingredients in front of them. On the contrary, Lina continued to stand on tiptoe and stretched her arms, trying to take an egg roll from the bento box to eat, but the distance was a little far away. The cheek was attached to the edge, and after repeated attempts for a long time, it still couldn't reach it.
……
"Thank you."
Heidi and Natsuki Aoi came to the entrance of the community. Because the ingredients are relatively heavy, and they live not far away, Natsuki Aoi sent them here specially, and it didn't bother her.
"What does Niya do at home alone?"
"Well, I spend most of my time doing handwork, but recently I have been more focused on studying."
"Oh, isn't this very good? Nowadays, children are a bit tired of studying, so it's really rare to be able to like to study." Aoi Natsuki recalled the last time Lina's final grades were extremely serious, and he was still troubled by this. The thing is, teaching and learning are two different things. Lena often doesn't understand what he means, and Hetty dropped out of school very early. After leaving school for a few years, she really can't even understand the simplest math problems. .
"Well, maybe it has something to do with me not letting her go to cram school. A reasonable balance between work and rest, study when you need to study, and relax when you need to relax. She may have developed such a living habit herself." Hetty said Bian and Natsuki Aoi came to the door of the building, just about to say goodbye, but immediately, the two saw a middle-aged man standing at the door.
Natsuki Aoi glanced at his whole body, the slightly worn-out padded jacket, the beard on his face was completely unshaven, and he looked sloppy, with his back curled up, standing at the door the whole time, looking around.
Originally, he wanted to ignore it, but when the middle-aged man suddenly called Hetty excitedly, Natsuki Aoi's eyes couldn't help but widen.
Turning her head to look at Hetty, her face was full of resistance, and at this time Natsuki Aoi had already guessed all about it.
"Long time no see, Hetty, how are you doing recently?" The middle-aged man greeted him in an instant, and when Hetty saw him, she immediately pushed back two steps, her hands instinctively resisting.
Natsuki Aoi has a simple understanding of Hetty's father being on the news. I remember that it should be a bad gamble. He owes a lot of money. The reason why Hetty gave up her studies and became an idol is because of this father, and if it wasn't for Hetty After she succeeded in gaining popularity, the consequences of giving up her studies were unimaginable. Looking at the middle-aged man in front of her, Natsuki Aoi didn't like him at all.
"Actually, my money is a little tight recently, so can you give me some more money? It doesn't need too much, twenty, no! One hundred thousand yen is enough." The middle-aged man pressed on step by step, and gestured ten fingers Said.
Hetty was obviously frightened by him, and was about to back away, but when the middle-aged man saw him, he immediately reached out and grabbed her arm: "Please! Dad is really in trouble now, let's have a meal together at noon, with Niya."
"Please, please go back first..." Hetty lowered her head, and kept trying to withdraw her right hand, but the middle-aged man's grasping force was irrelevant, and a pained look appeared on Hetty's face.
At this time, a big hand fell down, grabbed the middle-aged man's wrist, and forced him to let go of his hand. Natsuki Aoi stepped forward, protecting Heidi with his left hand, and his whole face became pale. Get serious.
Seeing such a father, it was hard for him not to be angry, especially when Hetty pursed her lips and looked aggrieved. As a man, he should stand up.
Natsuki Aoi stood in front of the middle-aged man, and this aura made the middle-aged man take a step back and looked at him warily.
"You, who are you?"
"Don't come here again from now on, how old are you, and you don't keep your feet on the ground all day long, just dreaming some illusory dreams, please leave here immediately!" Aoi Natsuki pointed at the opening to leave and said loudly.
The middle-aged man was not only shocked by this mid-spirited voice, even Hetty changed her state just now and looked up at his obviously not generous back in surprise.
The middle-aged man's eyes were erratic, but in the end he didn't dare to answer back. Holding the wrist of his left hand, he trotted away from the entrance on the side.
After losing sight of him at all, Aoi Natsuki also heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Heidi: "Are you all right?"
"Hmm...thank you." Hetty bowed slightly to express her gratitude. It was really important to stand up just now. If she were to face her father alone, I'm afraid...
"You'd better tell the security guard at the gate that he can't be allowed to come again in the future."
"Yeah." Hetty nodded frequently, and tensed her fingers with both hands. After two seconds, she raised her head and asked curiously, "Just now, Aoi, were you angry?"
Chapter 248 Hetty's Resistance
Natsuki Aoi was stunned for a moment, and said, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, no, no, you've done a good job. It's just the first time I've seen Aoi and you're angry." Hetty waved her hands repeatedly.
"After all, I'm a boy, and I must stand up in this situation." Natsuki Aoi didn't think so, and he just thought it was a small farce, and then he comforted Heidi a few words, and motioned her to give it to her first. Niya brings lunch.
Hetty nodded, but this time there was obviously more shyness on her face, and this emotion was slowly growing when the two were alone.
Natsuki Aoi watched Heidi go upstairs, and he also turned around to go home, walked all the way through the wooden corridor of the community, and walked out of the gate of the community. Just when he was standing in front of the street traffic lights and waiting for the red lights, a phone rang suddenly.
Natsuki Aoi took out his mobile phone and saw that it was Hedi calling.
Just as he was about to ask a question, the other party stepped forward and said anxiously, "Niya is gone! She's not at home at all!"
After hearing this, Natsuki Aoi stayed where she was, and began to recall what had just happened in her mind. Heidi's father mentioned a word, do you want to have a meal with Niya... Could it be that he has already accepted it in advance? Niya is out?
is that a lie……
……
Natsuki Aoi suggested to call the police, but Hetty hesitated and finally nodded. Through the message left on a piece of paper at home, it was confirmed that Hetty's father was the one who took Niya away, but even so, they chose to call the police , Aoi Natsuki also called Oki Yusuke to help, and Hetty called to inform the agent that he would ask for leave in the afternoon.
When the time came to 11:30, Oki Yusuke arrived, and Aoi Natsuki explained the situation to him. Yusuke was a warm-hearted person, and immediately started the search. After seeing Niya in the photo of Hetty's mobile phone, he turned his head and ran away Natsuki Aoi didn't dare to slack off at all, and asked Heidi that her father didn't have any means of transportation, so in terms of time, it might not be too far away, so she carried out a diffuse search along this range.
Hetty's face was full of anxiety, until there was a cry from a distance, she took a closer look, and found that it was the agent coming over, she ran forward panting, and immediately asked: "Now, have you found it now?"
"Not yet..." Speaking of this, Hetty lowered her head in frustration.
The agent looked at her, and patted her on the shoulder: "It's okay, I will definitely find it, let's look for it separately."
The manager's words undoubtedly increased Hetty's confidence, and the current manager has been promoted, and he was able to come here at this time with more busy business. Hetty was still very moved, and then nodded heavily. People split up and started looking.
Aoi Natsuki was walking on the main road at this time, and he had no clue at all. After searching for a while, he gradually calmed down and kept thinking about whether there was some way. After walking another 100 meters, he turned over immediately. Opened his own system panel, although his own system does not have the function of finding people, but it comes with some relatively obscure special functions.
By judging whether the favorability level fluctuates to determine the mood of the other party at the moment, but if the person acting is not yourself, will it affect the fluctuation?Aoi Natsuki opened Niya's favorability value and found that the value did not fluctuate, then made two assumptions, either it was not his own problem, or it meant that Niya was actually in a very safe place now.
Natsuki Aoi stopped at the crossroads, looked up at the road sign on the top left, and then there was a big fork in the road, where to go is very important.
Clenching his chin, he looked at the system panel again. The special value function is obviously useless, so... huh?When he opened the functions of the system panel, he suddenly found a function that he hadn't used for a long time, and he asked the favorability question every day.
Perhaps this can be useful, because this favorability question is an optimal solution for the current opponent's needs, but how to deal with it is up to him to judge for himself.
Natsuki Aoi quickly filled in Niya's name on the system panel, and the vocabulary that popped up in the next second made his eyes shine, and his thoughts became clear all at once.
"Food."
At noon, Niya, who had a long sleep on the weekend, was naturally hungry, so it might be very possible... Natsuki Aoi looked at the street sign again, and the food street in front of him caught his attention, something inappropriate Later, he immediately called the other people to inform them of this possible clue.
After the rest of the people heard the news, they immediately went to the food street, and she was not surprised when she heard Hetty's tone on the phone. Natsuki Aoi began to feel that the relationship between the father and daughter was not as expected. It was so estranged, and when I saw the other party today, apart from the other party's tone of agitation, he didn't show any anger or toughness.
Natsuki Aoi suppressed this thought for the time being, and the most important thing is to find Niya.
I searched along the food street one by one, and finally followed the photos sent by Yusuke to the discussion group. When the rest of the people saw it, they immediately confirmed that it was Niya and his father. They are now in a family restaurant, eating lunch together. A few people hurried over, and after rushing into the family restaurant, they immediately saw the two people sitting by the window eating. When Hetty's father saw the anxious Hetty, he was also stunned, and then he said embarrassingly. Smiling, slowly raised his hand.
The situation did not become chaotic as many people thought. On the contrary, both sides seemed very calm. Hetty stepped forward, and her father took the initiative to greet her with a smile on his face.
"Why did you take Niya away? Do you know how long I've been looking for her?" Heti asked, and when she mentioned her sister, she couldn't help but feel more confident.
The father was a little flustered, and quickly said: "I, I just haven't seen you for a long time, so I just want to have lunch with you. I wanted to tell you, but my mobile phone is already in arrears, so..."
This father's words are not strong, unlike Natsuki Aoi's original impression of Hedi's gambler's father, looking at Niya who is eating baked rice across the table, Natsuki Aoi waved to her, Niya Seeing this, he was stupefied, then jumped off the chair, and walked quickly to Natsuki Aoi.
The favorability of 78 points is not covered.
Hetty's father was surprised, looked around, and was speechless for a while.
At this time, the agent stepped forward, and the long-term fast and slow walking caused sweat to drip from his forehead. He took out a towel in his right hand and wiped the sweat. He had dealt with Hetty's father for the first time, so he knew what kind of person he was. , and then his tone became serious: "Papa Hetty, we will be very distressed if you do this. We can't find Niya. We have already called the police."
"Hey! Call the police! You don't need to call the police when you are eating with your daughter? Am I not the guardian of the two children?" Hetty's father asked loudly, pointing at himself.
"You do have guardianship rights, but the time will not be too long. We have agreed before that if you come to them without permission, our company will not pay you later." The manager's condition gradually calmed down, and his tone of voice was very dignified.
"What do you mean it won't be too long?"
"According to the new regulations of Japan's "Civil Law" in 22, the age of adulthood in Japan will be lowered from 20 to 18 years old. At the age of 18, you can independently sign credit card processing, investment, and other financial-related contracts, including having guardianship. The amendment will be formally implemented in April, and you will know the result by then."
"..." Hetty's father was speechless. He didn't understand this kind of thing at all. At this moment, he turned his attention to his two daughters, hoping to seek help.
But Hetty was angry with him at this time, especially after today's incident, she had completely figured out one thing, facing the bewildered father, she stepped forward so bravely for the first time in several years, The eyes of the two sides met, and this situation also attracted the attention of many diners around, and whispers could be heard faintly. Natsuki Aoi protected Niya's body with his left hand and watched the situation quietly.
In the next second, Hetty said in a slow and deep voice, "Father, from now on, I will not give you any more money."
"He..."
Before her father could reply, Hetty immediately said: "Otherwise, we will really have to meet in court next time..."
The bitterness of the past few years is only clear in Hetty's heart. Words like this are quite euphemistic for her experience of these years. Hetty's father finally stopped talking this time. It was the first time he saw his own The daughter talked to herself in such a tone.
His eyes moved down, and he sat on the sofa, his back gradually bent.
Aoi Natsuki looked down at Niya, his small eyes were also fixedly looking at the other end, then he gently rubbed Niya's head, and then Niya turned around, her whole body was pressed against his waist, her small face Rubbing the clothes left and right, obviously unwilling to look at them again.
"I understand." After more than ten seconds, Hetty's father finally responded. The whole person seemed to have lost all energy, dragging his seemingly heavy body to stand up, while hearing The diners around also had a general understanding of what kind of father he was, and cast more or less contemptuous glances at him. Even if Hetty retired temporarily, he was still very popular at the moment, and many people present recognized Hetty Moreover, the fact that her father was a gambler had been clearly written in the news. Everyone who saw it would feel deeply disgusted by such a father.
Hetty's father lowered his head, moved very slowly, with a look of guilt on his face, turned to look at his eldest daughter, and asked unwillingly: "Actually, I really just want to meet you two today, I know I am a Incompetent father, but can you give me another chance?"
Hetty's father raised his right index finger, begging.
Hetty didn't answer, but the manager on the side was already tired of such scoundrel talk, and immediately said: "You'd better go, and don't come back again."
When Hetty's father heard this, his face was full of disappointment. He immediately pursed his lips, stopped talking, leaned on the back of the sofa, and walked slowly towards the door.
And at this moment, Hetty suddenly spoke again, and said to her father, "Go and find a job, don't gamble anymore, if you can do it, we will make an appointment to meet again in a year's time."
This remark was undoubtedly beyond the expectations of everyone present, but it sounded reasonable to Natsuki Aoi. Just now, he always felt that this father was soft-tempered and loved to gamble, but he didn't seem like a rough man. Gambling is addictive. Once you fall into it, you always think that you can turn it around in the next game, and it is difficult to break away. Hetty's request is probably her heartfelt request. Hetty Ti and Niya are still willing to admit this father in their hearts. Even if he brought great disasters to the family, the father is still the father. play money.
In the past, Natsuki Aoi thought it was fear, but now it seems that in the fear of his father, there is also tolerance and love for his father.
Hetty's father turned his head in disbelief and saw his daughter's serious expression. The next moment, tears filled his eyes. He was 50 or [-] years old, but he still couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart. He bit his lower lip, Followed by a heavy nod.
"it is good!"
He promised loudly, or the rest of the people didn't understand, but he knew that this might be the last chance his daughter gave him.
