Chapter 1053 [Chapter ENDING] 5
Liu Quan:? ? ?
I really don't know whether to be happy or worried...
Although the deputy chief is so steadfast and unyielding, she is very happy (?), but she still can't recognize her in front of her. Is it because the lights are too dim tonight, or the powder on her face is so smudged? Too thick? !
She couldn't help touching her cheek with her right hand, and as expected, she felt a hand of powder.
Liu Quan: "..."
Even so, it shouldn't be as powdery as a geisha!The deputy chief has seen her dress up as a geisha before, is she even more out of shape now than at that time!
She also stood up unconsciously, and turned around to look at the back of the deputy chief walking away, feeling a little complicated in her heart.
... The sweet old stalk that said "If it's true love, I'll recognize you no matter what you become"!Sure enough, they only exist in sweet pet romance novels! !
Liu Quan couldn't help but sighed, and just as he was about to move to catch up with the deputy chief, he heard the accompanying uncle named "Yokosaka" sigh loudly behind him.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Quan," he said.
Liu Quan had no choice but to turn around again, only to find that Yokosaka bowed almost ninety degrees to her as an apology.
She had to immediately bow down to return the salute, and while cursing the damn etiquette of neon for wasting her time, she showed a reasonable and virtuous (?) look, and replied: "No, although I was surprised, but Mr. Naito misses the previous Madam is also due... I am confused, but I can understand..."
Yokosaka straightened up, smiled wryly, "Miss Izumi is really a considerate lady..."
Liu Quan was a little impatient here and wasting time on socializing with him in a hypocritical way, just about to say a few words and find an excuse to chase him out, when he heard Yokosaka sigh heavily again.
"Naito-kun is a very reliable and good man. Although he became a judge at a very old age, he can handle everything quickly and well. He is a rare talent..."
Perhaps in order to whitewash the scene for Hijikata's slightly rude early departure, Yokosaka talked about Hijikata himself.
This made Liu Quan, who was eager to leave, pause again.She still stood there, hesitated for a while, and decided to finish listening to the previous summary (heavy fog!) spoken by the story commentary NPC (?)—anyway, even if you can’t catch up with the deputy chief tonight, just grab this If the NPC uncle is the same, he will be able to find the whereabouts of the deputy chief in the future.
So she raised her eyebrows slightly, and responded in a persuasive way: "It's precisely because I heard so that I wanted to meet Mr. Naito no matter what... But, I didn't expect that Mr. Naito's former wife and I look similar." The resemblance—”
The wry smile on Yokosaka's face deepened a little.Perhaps this embarrassing atmosphere had already reached its peak because of Hijikata's departure, and the situation couldn't possibly get any worse; so instead, he felt a bit broken, as if hoping that his frank attitude could win her understanding, continued:
"Perhaps it's very impolite to tell you so bluntly until now... However, since this has happened tonight, I also feel that I have an obligation to give you the necessary explanation."
He paused, as if choosing his words.
"Naito-kun, he has never forgotten his former wife." He said.
"We've known this since we became colleagues... He declined everyone's good intentions to arrange a blind date for him, and even resisted the pressure of those big people who knew him forcibly to arrange a blind date for him... Maybe you too Understand, at his age, and in such a position, now is the civilized age again, and the various intercourses are increasing; there is not a good wife to take care of other affairs, neither domestic nor External communication is actually very inconvenient..."
Liu Quan: "Oh..."
She responded ambiguously, waiting for Yokosaka to continue.
Sure enough, Yokosaka did not live up to his duty as a "story commentary NPC".
"We tried many ways to persuade him, but it was useless... Until one day, a colleague accidentally discovered that he was carrying a cupronickel western cigarette case with him..."
Liu Quan: "...a cigarette case?"
The deputy chief doesn't seem to smoke? !Why have all kinds of bad habits popped up after only a few years? !Smoking, rudeness, prosopagnosia【Hey!
Yokosaka seemed to see her questioning expression, smiled and shook his head, denying her guess.
"It is precisely because Naito-kun does not have this habit that he is carrying a cigarette case that attracts people's attention...Later, we found out that he was carrying that cigarette case because of the design of the cigarette case. A little photograph or portrait..."
Oh, Liu Quan seems to understand.
This is probably the source of the words "they saw her portrait" that the deputy chief said just now.
"As you know, there are more and more painters who are learning Western painting. Western painting can draw people like real people... There is such a Western portrait hidden in Naito-kun's cigarette case."
Yokosaka smiled wryly again, and then said in a generous (?) tone:
"You must have guessed it by now... That's right, the person in that portrait is his former wife."
Liu Quan: "...Oh."
Although she had already guessed this conclusion, she was still so surprised that she could hardly speak when she heard Yokosaka confirm this conjecture with her own ears.
She doesn't remember any Western portraits she left behind.She didn't know where the deputy chief found this portrait.Maybe he just found an artist who is good at painting Western paintings, and then asked the other party to paint according to his description-why?Is it because he is worried that the years will be too long, and the old age will erase the smallest parts of her in his mind?
Hearing her dry reply, Yokosaka looked a little embarrassed, coughed before continuing: "...Indeed, you look a lot like that lady, I know it might be rude to you to say so, but—"
He stammered and spoke as if he couldn't make sense, but this time before he finished speaking, he heard a chuckle of unknown meaning from the lady who was left behind.
"...But, even with such a similar face, Mr. Naito refused without hesitation, didn't he?" He heard the calm and reasonable Miss Izumi say so.
Sweat broke out on Yokosaka's forehead in an instant.
Although Miss Quan's tone was very calm, the content of this sentence was undoubtedly not that peaceful. After hearing it, he felt thrilled, and he didn't dare to speak out, let alone speak without authorization.
But Miss Quan didn't have an attack as he imagined.
When she was listening to his narration just now, her once wandering eyes suddenly returned to his face. After a moment of pause, she showed a smile.
"I'm very satisfied with the blind date you arranged." He heard Ms. Quan say - very horrifying (?) words.
Yokosaka:? !
God, is this world crazy? !
The colleague who has always been calm and reliable left the other party's lady rudely during the blind date, and just left, and also published a lot of words such as "I can't betray my wife", "Otherwise she will step on Shimahara " and other horrifying remarks; and this lady who has always been demure and decent, after listening to the ins and outs, she also made a more horrifying (?) remarks——
So how should he report the result to his boss and those big shots who care about this blind date after he goes back?Saying "It didn't go very well, but the results seem to be going well"?
Before he could figure it out, he saw the gentle and elegant Miss Quan turn around and push away the chair, as if she was planning to leave too.
He was shocked and exchanged glances with the middle-aged maid brought by Miss Quan. Before he could ask the standard "Where are you going?", she heard her say loudly:
"I have already understood what you said. You can leave the rest of the matter to me. Because I like this Mr. Naito very much, and I want to marry him no matter what—you can go back and do this Tell everyone."
Yokosaka:? ? ?
There is no doubt that the world must have gone mad.
Leaving Uncle Yokosaka with an indescribable (?) expression in the dining room, he ordered the middle-aged servant who followed her to wait for her in the dining room for the time being, and then Liu Quan quickly adjusted his pace to the limit, a gust of wind (?) Small steps rushed out from behind the screen.
She rushed to the railing on the second floor and looked down——
Sure enough, the deputy chief was nowhere to be seen in the hall on the first floor.
Liu Quan was so annoyed that he wanted to stomp his feet and kick the railing.She almost raised her right foot, and because she considered that this was a public place, she had to maintain her image of a lady of the family, "although she was left behind by her blind date, but she couldn't lose face", so she reluctantly held back that harmful feeling. Impulse, yelling at the system bacteria in the brain:
[Hijikata Toshizo's position, send it to me right now! ! ! ]
The system bacteria suddenly popped out.
【Short oil, are you so angry that you have even forgotten the titles of "Mr. Tukata" or "Deputy Chief"? 】
Liu Quan: [...For a heartless man who abandoned me here mercilessly, my attitude is already polite enough!Now, right away, I want to know where he has gone!I'm going to grab him and question him right now!Why stared at me for a long time, but came to the conclusion that "this person is not the person I know"! !Am I inadvertently redeeming a Korean full-face plastic surgery package that I don't even know about? ! ]
The system went silent for a while.
【...He didn't go far.After just leaving the restaurant, he stood for a while in the shadows outside the door, looking angry and wistful... but now he seemed to have shaken off that emotion and started walking down the sidewalk.You go out the door and turn right, run faster, and you will catch up to him in no time. 】
Liu Quan: [...Why do I always feel that something is wrong?Hello, please report my current points to me! ]
The system bacteria sounded a little impatient.
[Your points have not changed much, and we do not provide any so-called "Korea full face plastic surgery package"!If you don’t catch up, Hijikata Toshizo will be out of sight—let me remind you, you’re wearing a kimono now, and running with big strides is an impossible option——]
Before the system bacteria's complaints were over, Liu Quan rushed to the gate on the first floor.The doorman seemed startled when he saw her aggressive appearance; just as she opened the gate for her, she rushed out into the street.
Then, she decisively looked to the right—in the crowd of people in the twilight, she seemed to see in the distance a figure that was mostly covered by other pedestrians, only the back of the head was appearing and disappearing in the crowd, heading towards that direction. go on foot.
Liu Quan took a deep breath.
Now she faces two choices——
First, catch up, and directly use a large number of factual and credible facts that only the two of them know, to convincingly show that she is the authentic Qingyuan Xueye; from then on, he can no longer bear the title of an old widower it's -
Second, catch up and pretend that you are the "Miss Quan" who was chosen as a blind date because she looked too much like his former wife, and ask why he was able to judge that she is not Kiyohara Yukiha herself; After being confused, she will decide whether to reveal her true identity on the spot according to the situation at the time and her mood, or continue to delay revealing her identity for a few more days in order to vent the anger of being left behind today, so that the deputy chief can be a powerful old man for a few more days widower--
Liu Quan lowered his head, passed through the crowds on the street, and rushed forward in one breath.As she walked forward, as her heartbeat became faster and faster as she approached behind him, she had already made a choice.
Panting for breath, she braked suddenly and stopped a few steps behind Hijikata. After calming down her shortness of breath, she called out: "...Mr. Naito!"
The footsteps of Tufang striding forward suddenly stopped.
Liu Quan called out again.
"Mr. Naito."
As if he was finally sure that someone was calling him behind him, Tufang hesitated and turned around.
At this time, between the two of them, almost in the middle, a gas street lamp happened to light up on the side of the road, emitting a shining light.
It was late spring, and even as dusk fell there was still warmth in the air.The scent of decorative flowers and trees wafted along the street, and the gas lamps in the street cast a warm yellow halo on the sidewalk between them.
The author has something to say:
February 12:
