[Attention, I'm about to start performing. ]
Woz lowered his eyes and looked at the newly received message on his phone. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, chuckled, locked the screen of his phone, and put it away.
Then, he raised his head and looked at the signboard of Tachibana Dessert Shop in front of him. His smile deepened and he loosened the gray scarf around his neck. He walked forward, opened the shop door and walked in.
"welcome."
Hearing the sound of the store door opening and closing, Tachibana Hinaika, who had just finished recording the customer's order and was about to inform the chef, immediately turned around and showed a sweet business smile.
"Please sit over here."
She pointed out the empty seats to Woz as he walked into the store.
However, when Woz heard this, he had no intention of sitting over.
He just glanced in the direction Tachibana Hina was pointing, then withdrew his gaze, smiled, and walked straight to Tachibana Hina.
"I'm not here to eat."
"?"
Tachibana Hinaka looked at Woz in confusion.
"Then you are..."
"I'm here to see your store manager."
"Looking for...our store manager?"
"Yes."
Woz nodded and affirmed.
However, this answer made Tachibana Hinaka even more confused.
Who is this person...why are you looking for dad?
Thinking like this, Tachibana Hinajia frowned, turned his head slightly, and began to rack his brains.
But no matter what she thought, she couldn't figure out who Woz was...
From headquarters? It doesn't look like it.
An acquaintance of Dad? No, in that case, she wouldn't have no impression at all.
A stranger who made an appointment with dad in advance? It doesn't look like either.
So, my colleagues in the dessert shop?
Um, this doesn't seem to be... impossible?
Thinking like this, Tachibana Hinaka felt that her thoughts gradually turned into a mess, and the more she thought about it, the more messy she became.
[Ah, I can’t understand! ! ]
Looking at Tachibana Hina's confused look, Woz couldn't help but smile.
"Haha, don't worry, let me explain it in a more specific way."
Facing Tachibana Hinaka's gaze that came over after hearing this, he continued.
“My name is Woz, from the Historical Administration.
"I'm here to see Mr. Tachibana Sejiro, the affairs director of the Kanto branch of the Warriors Organization."
As soon as she heard this sentence, Tachibana Hina had not yet reacted, but immediately her eyes widened with an expression of extreme astonishment.
"Eh!??"
The screams attracted the attention of everyone in the store.
Customers cast their inquiring eyes over one after another.
But soon Tachibana Hinaka very consciously covered her mouth and performed a physical version of the "forced calm technique" for herself.
Outstanding effect.
Tachibana Hinaka's screams stopped instantly.
Then, she came to her senses and immediately bowed to the shocked customers around her. After quickly apologizing, she hurried to the Kanto branch office in the back.
What is the Historical Authority? I don't know... forget it, if you don't know, just don't know. She can't figure it out anyway. Let her father think about this kind of thing.
With this idea in mind, Tachibana Hinaka went to call out Tachibana Sejirou.
Also coming out was Tachibana Kasumi who was helping Tachibana Sejirou.
After coming out, without the guidance of Tachibana Hinaka, they almost immediately saw Woz waiting leisurely in the aisle.
His eyes swept over Woz's face. After thinking carefully and confirming that he really didn't know him, Tachibana Sejiro was about to ask, but Woz interrupted with a smile and raised his hand, and then spread out a hand. , making a "please" gesture to his side.
What's in that direction...?
Telephone!
At this thought, Tachibana Sejiro's eyes widened a little, and then he heard a phone ringing suddenly.
"Ding-a-ling--! Ding-a-ling--!"
After staring at the ringing phone for a long time, Tachibana Sejiro couldn't help but look back at Woz.
Woz didn't speak, just smiled, and raised his hand again to signal Tachibana Sejiro to answer the phone.
Seeing this, Tachibana Sejiro's eyebrows suddenly furrowed even more tightly. He knew that there must be something weird about that phone call. Perhaps, it was related to the unknown historical management bureau represented by the caller, so...
To pick up means to reach out and to be kind;
Not answering means being wary and refusing.
Now that the opponent has made it clear that he is organized, at this moment, what he represents is not only himself, but also the Warriors Organization!
After thinking again for a moment, Tachibana Sejiro finally chose to step forward, pick up the phone, and answer the call.
"Hello?"
Fortunately, a familiar voice came from the other side.
"Director of Affairs? It's me, Heavenly Ghost."
…
Tian Meijing glanced warily at Gates, who was standing not far away and had released his transformation. She held the phone in one hand and covered her lips with the other. She whispered the Gates she saw when she came and transformed her, and then instantly killed him in the air. The picture is described.
"...He is very strong! Very strong! Even in the air, his speed can easily reach a level that ordinary people cannot see. What's more, not only is he fast, he also possesses pure power that cannot be underestimated. .”
After all, mesh cutters have armor.
Being able to cut the web into pieces in an instant, speed alone is not enough.
Finally, Ame Akira told Tachibana Sejiro.
"He claims to be from the Historical Administration, and his name is...Gates!"
…
"Gates from the Historical Administration...?"
The hand holding the phone tightened slightly, and Tachibana Sejiro took a deep breath.
"I see."
He told Tian Meijing.
"Now that the demon demon has been solved, you should come back first. As for Mr. Gates... tell him that I have met his companions. If he wants to come over, he can come with you."
"I see."
"Um."
After receiving Ame Akira's affirmative answer, Tachibana Sejiro put the phone back into the base, hung up the phone, thought for a moment, turned around, and faced Woz again.
This time, Woz did not remain silent, but took the initiative to speak.
"Historical Bureau, Woz. Nice to meet you, Mr. Tachibana Sejiro, the affairs director of the Kanto branch of the Warriors Organization."
Putting one hand on his chest, Woz greeted him politely and introduced himself.
"I'm glad to see you, too." Tachibana Sejiro said the same.
Regardless of whether this is true or not, at least the atmosphere between the two parties during their first meeting was generally very harmonious.
"please."
Tachibana Sejiro invited Woz to come in for a detailed discussion.
Woz agreed and followed Tachibana Seichiro without any panic, and together they entered the hinterland of the Kanto branch of the warrior organization.
Tachibana Kasumi and Tachibana Hinaka originally wanted to follow, but were rejected by Tachibana Sejiro.
"You take care of the store."
"..." Tachibana is incense-bearing.
"..." Tachibana Hinaka.
After thinking about it, they didn't just stay there and went to contact the person.
…
office.
After preparing a cup of tea for Woz, Tachibana Sejiro sat across from Woz.
"Can you tell me your reason for coming?" he asked.
"Of course." Woz nodded, "But before that, I want to ask you a question first."
"What?" Tachibana Sechiro frowned subconsciously and tensed up.
Seeing this, Woz smiled and said in a deep voice: "Do you believe in history?"
