The scene that Kuroki Jin expected to see him in the fighting field did not appear. Bourbon only lost his composure for a moment, then returned to normal and smoothly smoothed his collar.
"Have you visited him?"
"Yeah." Kuroki Ren nodded, took out the cigarette from his pocket and handed it over.
Kuroki doesn’t smoke, and he doesn’t smoke bourbon, but Kuroki feels that bourbon at this time may need it.
Bourbon took the cigarette, lit it without putting it in his mouth, but held it upright and watched him burn.
Kuroki Jin can probably understand his mood. This kind of separation is common for their profession. Sometimes your teammates may not be able to come back after a mission.
But commonplace is not the same as habit. People who have been with you for many years suddenly tell you that you will never see them again. This is something that no one can get used to.
Bourbon adjusts himself quickly. He is not like Kuroki Jin, who has an emotional personality. If compared to him, he is more like Belmode. His emotions and anger are invisible, and no one knows what he is planning. Something.
So he took away the pack of cigarettes in Heimuren's hand, walked out of the small room with Heimuren's blank expression, and handed the cigarette to Jiang Chengdahe.
"It's confiscated, don't let Potter learn bad things."
Kuroki Ren: "??"
Jiang Chengdahe silently put away his cigarette, and then looked at Kuro Muren with disapproval.
Kuroki Ren: "..."
Well done to you, Bourbon.
"I won't buy it next time." Heimuren gave in decisively and made a mark in Bourbon's gloating eyes.
Bourbon left. Before leaving, he used gestures to remind Kuroki to hurry up and get things done. Kuromu waved his hand impatiently.
Jiangcheng Dahe watched Bourbon leave before throwing the cigarette box back to Kuroki Ren.
"...I really don't smoke." Kuroki Ren had no choice but to put the cigarette case on the table at hand, "This guy Amuro always makes fun of me."
"I don't understand the way you two get along." Jiang Chengdahe took the cigarette case and put it in his pocket. He was a smoker, but he didn't smoke during business hours.
Kuroki Jin smiled. Kuroki knew that Bourbon wanted to be his brother. Since the showdown between the two, he had consciously stepped into the role of Kenji's brother and taken care of him. However, Kuroki did not need him to be like this.
No one can replace Hagiwara Kenji, not even bourbon. In other words, in Kuroki Jin's heart, the few people who supported each other in his darkest childhood are irreplaceable.
Like Taiga Eunari in front of me, Airi Chiga in the United States, and Kenji Hagihara who has passed away.
Kuroki Jin admitted that the darkness of his childhood was a pain that he never wanted to mention, but these brothers and sisters were the only light left in his childhood.
Kuroki Ren left Fengshun, and Jiang Chengdahe resumed business. Before any customers arrived, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette case.
In the clouds and mist, his square face was looming.
Kuroki skillfully organized the remaining forty-nine members of the Supervision Department after removing Gin into seven groups, ensuring that the friendship between the members of each group was neither too good nor too bad, and that each group The members of the organization that the group members know can generally cover all members participating in the annual meeting.
This is already the limit. Kuroki Jin still bothered Gin to revise it several times before giving the list to Bourbon on Friday. The latter was so busy that he didn't even call and send a direct email to restore it. An "OK" indicates receipt.
In addition, the members of the Tokyo Operations Department have also completed their declarations, but the members who came back from various places are not so fast, and some who have no dealings with Kuroki Jin themselves are delayed again and again.
Fortunately, Kuroki Jin had already anticipated this situation and was not in a hurry. He sat back leisurely in the candy house and took some time to relax.
Onto Wakaki also came back to report on Friday. In the past few days, he and Kudo Shinichi have traveled to all corners of Tokyo. They encountered three cases, were invited by Megure twice, and swiped their faces to the Criminal Department of the Metropolitan Police Department. The people saw the duo and let them go directly.
Kuroki Jin had to lament that Kudo Shinichi was really good at communication, and asked the shy Onto Wakaki to learn from him.
Wenren can't learn from it.
So he hid in the back kitchen dejectedly and taught Anayuki how to bake pastries. Since the candy store didn't sell this kind of thing, they all ended up in the kitchen. In human mouth.
Anayuki picked up the weight loss plan again: "..."
In short, the first day of Wenren's return was a day of chaos.
Towards evening, when there was the least amount of traffic, the trio from Didan High School visited this small candy house again.
Kuroki Jin was counting today's business accounts and greeted them casually when he saw them coming. Ana Yuki had already prepared the order for Suzuki Sonoko to come over at noon.
"..." Kuroki Ren took the time to take a look at the beautifully decorated cakes and cute little cookies. He recalled that he had eaten the distorted semi-finished products all afternoon, and he suddenly felt unbalanced.
"Hey." He sighed loudly on purpose, attracting the attention of the whole store.
"It's still a hard life to be a boss." Kuroki performed vigorously, "Every day I open my eyes to the ledger and close my eyes to candy. It's hard to even eat normally."
"Then I don't see you eating less!" Anaisuki skillfully flew over a rag.
Kuroki Ren dodged away more skillfully, and his face returned to that shameless smile. He stood up and walked away from Anaisaki while clapping his hands and said: "Wow, I'm angry. I'm angry. Wenren, come out and see. You're so gentle." My dear sister Xiji is angry."
Anayuki felt that it was not her fault. I think whether she was an insurance salesperson before or a candy store employee now, she always looked like a gentle sister next door and rarely spoke loudly.
So it must all be Kuroki Jin's fault.
Anayuki's expression gradually changed. Wakamu Onto came out of the kitchen and retracted his head as soon as he put his head in. The originally cheerful atmosphere of the melon-eating trio gradually became quieter.
Kuroki Jin: "Gulu."
"That, that..."
"Hey." This time it was Anayuki who sighed. She stood there with her head lowered, sighing inaudibly and sobbing slightly.
"I'm really sorry, boss, for having such a bad employee like me." She wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand.
Hey - isn't she crying? She definitely smiled at him just now! Kuroki Jin used his name to guarantee that he would definitely smile at him!
but--
"Mr. Kuroki, you've gone too far." Suzuki Sonoko raised her plate with a fork for eating cakes, "How could you bully Sister Yuki like this? It was obviously you who made her angry in the first place."
He was just kidding!
"It's okay if the joke goes too far." Kudo Shinichi seemed to know what Kuroki Jin wanted to explain.
Kuroki Ren looked at Mao Lilan, who had already gone to comfort Anayuki, and could only take a deep breath and bow to Anayuki with his hands clasped together.
"I'm so sorry!"
