Chapter 261 Akai Shuichi: Are You Trying to Blow Me Up? ! (Part 2)

It's not open yet. Are you early?

Outside the dessert shop, Shuichi Akai, wearing a black knitted hat, a mask, and a black trench coat, looked at the locked glass door and the wooden sign hanging above that read the business hours: 9:30 a.m. to evening 22:00.

Will it open in half an hour? I am still anxious...

He raised his head slightly again, looking sharply at the clock in the store through the glass door, and a trace of helplessness seemed to flash across his face.

"Tap tap tap!"

Suddenly Akai Shuichi's ears twitched slightly and he heard a flurry of footsteps.

"Oops, I'm late. I'm late!"

As soon as he turned around, he saw a woman running over in a panic, muttering about being late.

This woman looked very anxious. She was walking recklessly and running very fast. She was about to reach the dessert shop in a moment. Just a few steps away from the dessert shop, she suddenly stepped on a small stone and staggered. After two clicks, he fell straight forward.

"ah!"

Bao Benguang screamed and closed his eyes habitually, waiting for the familiar pain to arrive.

.One second, two seconds, three seconds... Hey! ? fine! ?

Feeling something strange coming from his shoulder, Bao Benguang opened his eyes again in surprise, only to see a man wearing a knitted hat and mask holding his shoulder, with a very captivating look in his eyes.

Hiss, so scary! !

Bao Benguang subconsciously deflected his gaze, not daring to look at him.

"Be careful next time you walk."

Akai Shuichi saw it in his eyes, but there was still no ups and downs in his heart. He kindly helped her up and advised her, but his voice didn't have any ups and downs.

Hiss, there's not even any emotion in the voice...it's really scary! !

"Thank you, thank you..."

Hikari Homoto muttered inwardly, a little scared, but he still forced his eyes to meet Akai Shuichi's, and thanked him solemnly. She still has the most basic etiquette and courtesy.

Akai Xiu nodded without any intention of talking.

He has recognized this woman. Before today, she was the nanny in the new doctor's house...

On the contrary, Bao Benguang glanced at this tightly covered man strangely. He felt that he was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. I was just thinking to myself why he was standing in front of the dessert shop?

By the way, the dessert shop...

Bao Benguang quickly turned her head to the door of the store, but found that the door was still locked. She rubbed her eyes in confusion and looked at the wooden sign again.

"Huh!? It turns out that the business hours are half past nine! Bang! I actually got the time wrong again!"

With a scream of annoyance, Bao Benguang slapped his forehead with his small hand as a punishment for being confused again.

Hearing this, Akai Shuichi glanced at her without any trace. He saw that she was dressed simply and plainly, with only light makeup on her face. She didn't look like she was on a date. He then remembered that she lost her job yesterday and saw her in the restaurant. In that scene, it can be inferred that she knows the woman who looks like Mingmei.

With a guess in his mind, Akai Shuichi immediately became interested in talking.

"Are you an employee of this store?" He looked at Bao Benguang, who was still upset, and asked in a low voice.

"Ah, yes!" Bao Benguang nodded, wondering why this man who made her feel indifferent and mysterious would suddenly talk to her.

"Looking at you, it should be your first day working here, right?"

Akai Shuichi glanced at the wooden sign and asked knowingly.

"Um......."

Bao Benguang's face was slightly red, his voice was like a mosquito, and he wanted to find a crack to get in.

On my first day at work, I made a mistake about my working time. I almost fell down when I rushed in. It turned out that I had arrived half an hour early. Then I was pointed out to my face by someone, even if the person didn't make fun of him or even used his tone of voice. No ups and downs. But anyone else would be embarrassed!

"I didn't mean to make fun of you. As you can see, it's my first time here, so I came early. In other words, the faults of both of us are the same."

Akai Shuichi saw her embarrassment and said lightly with relief.

"Hey, are you also a new employee in the store?"

Homoto Hikaru suddenly felt that this cold-looking man was not as bad as she imagined.

"No, I'm a special guest."

Akai Shuichi shook his head and denied.

"Well, you are a customer and I am an employee. That's different. You don't know that the business hours are normal."

Bao Benguang pouted and said helplessly.

"The results are the same."

The meaning behind Akai Shuichi's words was nothing more than the fact that both of them had to stand in front of the store and wait for the dessert shop to open.

Homoto felt that this person was even more strange. She hesitated for a moment, thinking that the man in front of her had just helped her, and finally reminded: "Actually, there is a dessert shop nearby. They will open earlier. I went there before. I bought it and it tastes very good, so if you are in a hurry, you can go to their store... Of course, the desserts in our store are definitely better than theirs! ”

In the end, she may have felt that her behavior was very inconsistent with her current identity, so she added a sincere comment at the end.

"I said, I came here because of the reputation." Akai Shuichi shook his head and said again.

"Then please wait a little longer! However, after eating the desserts made by Qinami, you will definitely feel that the trip is worthwhile!"

Seeing that he was very persistent, Hōmoto Hikari would certainly not drive him away. While praising her store manager's craftsmanship, she silently labeled this person as a "dessert lover".

And people who like sweets are generally not too bad-tempered! ——The magical logic of capital preservation.

"Qianami?" Akai Shuichi deliberately whispered the name in a low voice.

"Well, she is our store manager! The desserts she makes are delicious! They are the best I have ever tasted!"

Bao Benguang gradually let down his guard and felt that this man was actually quite talkative, far less indifferent than his eyes seemed.

"That's right! I hope the desserts she makes are as delicious as you said..."

Akai Hide's eyelids darkened slightly, with a complicated expression.

It turns out that not only does he look like her, but he also makes delicious desserts. But, is it exactly the same as what I ate three years ago...

"Don't worry, I will never let you down! I can guarantee this!"

Bao Benguang nodded repeatedly. During the interview, she had actually been conquered by the store manager's craftsmanship.

"It seems that your store manager is very good." Shuichi Akai praised in a nonchalant tone.

"Uh-huh."

"Can you tell me about it? You are the store manager." Seeing that the topic has been opened, Akai Shuichi gradually revealed his minions.

"Huh?" Homoto Hikaru was stunned, blinking her eyes, she suddenly remembered something, her eyes immediately stared at Akai Shuichi suspiciously, and looked up and down.

Oh~~I understand! ! He repeatedly emphasized that he came here because of the reputation. It turned out that it was not for the desserts, but for the store manager! !

hey-hey! During the previous interview, I heard Sha Ji say that half of the male customers in the store admired the store manager. It seems that what he said is true! However, the store manager is so charming!

I just heard that the president is here, well, it’s hard for them...

"Don't show such an expression, I'm just curious!"

Being stared at by Homoto Hikari's ambiguous gaze made him feel uncomfortable. Akai Shuichi moved his eyebrows and frowned for the first time.

"Sorry, I'm rude!"

Only then did Bao Benguang remember that this person was not easy to mess with, well, at least it seemed that way.

"..."

Seeing that he fell into silence, Homoto Guang felt a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, she felt that she had nothing to hide, so she answered his question: "Actually, I only know that the store manager came to Tokyo a while ago. , it just happened that this new store opened here, so she came to apply for the job. "

It even matches the time...

Akai Xiu's eyelid jumped, and his originally calm heart seemed to have been dropped by a huge stone, causing waves to splash. He was so agitated that he no longer tried to hide it, but asked directly in a low voice: "What about her character? "
