Chi Feichi was used to the crowded and complicated road environment in Tokyo. He was still a little uncomfortable driving on the quiet and uninhabited roads in Fukuoka. On the way back, he remembered to speed up on the uninhabited road and drove back to Maizuru Town at lightning speed. .
The business district is probably the place with the most high-rise buildings in Fukuoka. Even in Maizuru Town, next to the Tenjin business district, the residential areas are all two-story residential buildings, and it is rare to see apartment buildings with multiple floors.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki's house is also an old-fashioned two-story house, but the area is much larger than the common one-family house. The house has a revolving corridor, a sliding door that can be opened to another room, and there is a plant in the middle of the house. A green atrium separates the front and rear areas.
After arriving home, Yuesui Nanatsuki took Chi Feichi to see his grandfather's large study room, the tea room where his grandfather entertained guests, and the lounge where he often stayed when he was a child. He introduced the public areas and arranged Chi Feichi's room. The first room next to the atrium.
After moving into Koshimi Nanatsuki's home, the pace of life of the two became more leisurely.
In the morning, the two of them woke up in two rooms across the courtyard. Nanatsuki Koshizu went to prepare breakfast. Chi Feichi went to the study to sort out the books left by Nanatsuki Koshizu's grandfather and helped put the books that needed to be dried in the yard. superior.
After breakfast, the two of them went out for a walk nearby. They followed the path that Koshizu Nanatsuki took when he was in school, and visited the elementary school and junior high school that Koshimizu Nanatsuki went to, and then turned a corner and moved away. Stopping in front of the stationery store, I listened to Koshimizu Nanatsuki talk about interesting things from his school days.
At noon, the two of them ate local specialty ramen at a nearby old shop. Koshimizu Nanatsuki was very familiar with the nearby streets and alleys. He could always find a restaurant with the best food, and he could also chat with the boss about old times. Get double the side dishes from the enthusiastic and happy boss.
In the afternoon, the two went for a walk in the nearby Wuhe Park. They returned to Yuesui's house early, weeded the yard, and put all the almost-dry books back into the study.
Fei Chi was very satisfied with the environment of Yueshui's house. When Chi Feichi was drying books, he explored the courtyard. After following Chi Feichi out, he still wanted to go back early. When Chi Feichi and Yuesui Nanatsuki were weeding , just crawling around in the shade of the bushes. When the sun is no longer hot in the evening, they will stay on the grass that is about to turn yellow and bask in the sunset.
As a snake that likes to get into clothes and climb on beds, Fei Chi had to take a bath five times a day. Before going to bed, he was still worried that his snake scales would fade if he washed them too much. When he woke up, he forgot about the worries of the previous night. Later, the scope of the expedition was expanded to the entire house, determined to see the entire house.
Seeing that Feichi was very interested in exploring the house, Chi Feichi left Feichi to guard the house. He followed Nanatsuki Koshizu on a new day's outing. He walked further afield and visited the high school where Nanatsuki Koshizu studied. .
Elementary schools, junior high schools, and high schools are all on vacation, and there are only guards on duty in the school. The advantage of not having students in class is that others are allowed to visit the school at will.
Even the classroom where Koshimizu Nanatsuki was in school, the two of them could go and see it without worrying about disturbing others.
Both of them felt that the scenic spots were not as interesting as those places that carried the memories of Nanatsuki Koshimizu. After visiting the high school, they returned to Maizuru Town, had a Fukuoka hotpot meal on the street, and went to Maizuru Town where they had organized a few years ago. I visited several baseball games and the currently abandoned stadium.
The fence of the stadium was rusty, and there were peeling rubber everywhere on the field. No one had cleaned it for a long time, and there was a thick layer of dust.
Koshizui Nanatsuki took Chi Fei around briefly and told some interesting stories about his past baseball games. There was nothing to see around. He and Chi Fei arrived late at the street where various ingredients were sold, and planned to buy some. Go back and make dinner with fresh ingredients.
The owners of several shops on the food street knew Koshizu Nanatsuki. When they saw Koshizu Nanatsuki with a familiar young man next to him, they were very interested in the unfamiliar face of Chi Feichi. They all asked Koshizu Nanatsuki about it. After that, I felt embarrassed for my gossip, and with a smile, I added something to Koshizu Nanatsuki's shopping bag as a gift.
That is, when they were shopping in the food street, Chi Feichi suddenly noticed a little tail following them.
Along the way, there were many people looking at him and Nanatsuki Koshimizu. Some looked at him openly with a smile, while others looked at them secretly. One or two glances were mixed in, but it was not noticeable, but...
When he and Yueshui bought raw beef from the butcher shop and went out, the man was standing next to a car on the roadside, wearing casual clothes and a baseball cap on his head, his face blocked.
Judging from the exposed hands, facial lines and standing and walking posture, he should be a young man in his twenties.
When he noticed someone staring at him and turned to look over, the man turned around and walked towards the trunk of the car, like a passerby who had just gotten out of the car and was about to take something from the trunk.
There were many people like this on the road. He took one look at them and followed Yueshui to the vegetable shop next to them.
When they came out of the vegetable shop, a mother-in-law across the street looked at them from a small kiosk selling newspapers and magazines. Behind them, the vegetable shop owner and the middle-aged woman buying meat next to her also stared at them for a long time.
Apart from these three people, there was a young man in a condiment shop diagonally opposite.
It's the same man who was standing next to the car before.
This time, the other party did not wear a baseball cap on his head, revealing short black hair that was stiff and somewhat scattered. He wore a pair of sunglasses on his face, but he was still wearing the original light brown coat.
Even if other people on the street were curious about his unfamiliar face, most of them would glance away and look away. If they had nothing to do, they would turn to look at him twice. At that time, the only people on the street were the old woman opposite, the vegetable shop owner behind him, and The middle-aged woman and the young man next to them stared at them for a long time.
Then, the middle-aged woman next to them tried calling Yueshui's name, and Yueshui responded with a smile, and soon started chatting with the middle-aged woman.
According to Yueshui's introduction, the middle-aged woman is the mother of a classmate of Yueshui's primary school. When Yueshui was a child, she often went to the other person's house to see the family's dog. The two rarely saw each other since Yueshui was in high school.
The middle-aged woman had spent more time looking at Yueshui before, and her look of 'wanting to recognize but not sure she had recognized the wrong person' was also in line with the situation of the two of them.
When Yueshui was talking to the middle-aged woman, the owner of the vegetable shop also turned around and went back to the shop, no longer staring at them. He had been looking at them before, probably because he was too curious about him, a foreigner with strange eye colors.
After all, when he was in the vegetable shop, the shop owner spent more time looking at him than Yue Shui. He always glanced at his eyes from time to time and made fun of his height, so there was a high probability that he was just curious about him.
After that, Yueshui said goodbye to the middle-aged woman, and happily went to the other side of the road, greeted the old woman, and introduced him to her.
According to what the two said, the old woman had been on this street for more than 20 years. When Yueshui was a child, she often came here to buy newspapers for her grandfather, and often bought candies and snacks from the old woman.
While Kishui Nanatsuki was chatting with the old woman, Chi Feichi officially determined in his mind that there was something wrong with the young man standing in the condiment shop.
He and Yuesui were standing at the door of the vegetable store. When they noticed that their eyes were looking at the condiment store, the other party turned to look at the shelves.
When he withdrew his gaze and waited for Yueshui to chat with the middle-aged woman, the other party cast his gaze back again.
When he accompanied Yueshui to cross the road, the other party kept staring at them.
And normally, the guy standing in the condiment shop wearing sunglasses is either a bad guy like Vodka, a half-good guy like Isao Takatori who is doing bad things, or a bosozoku who is going to meet his friends. Or a detective whose tracking skills are as bad as his teacher's.
The young man was wearing a light brown coat with what appeared to be a white sweater underneath. He had short black hair and looked well-behaved. His trousers were also common dark gray casual men's trousers. He didn't look like a bosozoku.
As for whether he is a bad guy or someone else...
He wasn't sure yet.
However, when Yueshui was chatting with the old lady, the other party walked to the dessert shop opposite the condiment shop. It was a convenient place to observe them but also easy to expose oneself. Once there, the other party turned sideways and took out his mobile phone and pretended to make a call. His eyes glanced at them from time to time, but he never seemed to notice that he was observing through a glass of the newsstand. He even saw that the screen of the other party's mobile phone did not light up at all, nor did the call page appear. He took out the mobile phone and put it to his ear. …
It's not yet clear whether the other person is a good guy or a bad guy, but his tracking skills are worse than his teacher's, his personality isn't very cautious, and he doesn't look very smart.
"Finally, just go to the convenience store and buy some drinks. You still have a bottle of blood there, right? We can buy a bottle of red wine or something like that for you to mix with..." Koshizu Nanatsuki held the bottle in a brown paper bag in his arms. Good vegetables, walking towards the door of a convenience store, he smiled and turned to Chi Feichi and asked, "Is there anything in particular you want to drink?"
"The tea at home has gone moldy. You can buy some tea leaves and take them back to make tea. But we won't be here for too long, so don't buy too much. Or remember to take the tea leaves with you when you leave, otherwise it will happen again next time you come back. Harvest a bunch of moldy tea leaves." Chi Feichi stopped at the door of the convenience store. He looked up from the glass door to look at the environment in the convenience store. After retracting his gaze, he turned to Koshizu Nanatsuki and said, "I want to be outside. If you smoke, it will be troublesome for you to buy things."
"Ok, I guess I'll store the ingredients at the convenience store counter, so I won't bother you to help guard it." When Koshimizu Nanatsuki turned around and walked to the door, he stopped beside Chi Feichi, raised his head with a smile, and said Chi Feichi whispered, "Don't suddenly run up to arrest someone. Although the other party doesn't look very smart, he might have some dangerous weapons in his hands."
"knew."
Chi Feichi didn't find it strange at all to Koshikoshi Nanatsuki's reaction.
After all, Koshimizu Nanatsuki was also a famous detective in the south, so he couldn't even detect a guy with poor tracking skills.
"I just want to find an opportunity to collect the other party's personal information, and if possible, confirm who his target is," Chi Feichi assured softly without changing his expression, "I won't do anything random."
