Chapter 428
"Senior, my name is Lihai Xiaoqiao, please give me your advice."
"."
Although not very familiar, Uesugi Kai did know her.
Wasn't it because of the loss of the wallet before, to thank the girl who gave me two gifts in a row?
Kaoru Uesugi still remembers that she and Hanabi studied at the same school, in the Department of Oil Painting.
The world is really so small?Can we meet in this way?
But if you think about it carefully, this coffee shop is not far from Hanabi's school. It is very likely that female college students who have free time will come here to work, which is an extremely normal thing.
Xiaoqiao Lihai kept her head down from the moment she entered the door, she didn't see clearly the appearance of the senior in the coffee shop.
However, according to the senior maid who brought him in just now, that senior is a very beautiful and handsome guy.
Can pretty be used to describe a boy?
Xiaoqiao Lihai didn't know, but in her mind, there was only one person worthy of the word "beautiful".
No matter how handsome, Uesugi-kun will never be as handsome.
Xiaoqiao Lihai tried her best to raise her head, and was about to say hello to this senior again, to leave a good impression on him, but the moment she raised her head and saw him, she immediately covered her mouth in surprise.
Seeing clearly the appearance of the senior in the coffee shop, she subconsciously took two steps back.
"Ue, Uesugi-kun?"
Kai Uesugi was a little surprised, but obviously not as big of a reaction as she was.
Aka Erina put her hands on her chest and smiled: "Do you know each other?"
"know!"
"Let's get acquainted."
The two answered at the same time, followed by a moment of silence.
Finally Uesugi Kai explained calmly: "I picked up her wallet before, and she gave me a gift as a thank you."
"Oh~ that's it." Aka Erina nodded, expressing her understanding of the relationship between the two.
"Uesugi, no, senior! Does senior also work here?"
"Well, I just came here yesterday."
Xiaoqiao Lihai was very nervous, she didn't know why, in front of Kai Uesugi, she couldn't help but want to step back, and then covered her thumping chest with her hands to cover up her gaffe.
She felt as excited as a little girl seeing a star she had admired since she was a child.
Fortunately, she tried her best to hold back and didn't show it outside.
Seeing that she didn't continue to speak, Kai Uesugi said as a senior:
"Since you are here as an intern now, let's get to know you formally. My name is Uesugi Kai, a first-year liberal arts student at Tokyo University, and I am currently working as a barista at .mimi coffee shop."
Uesugi paused for a while when he mentioned the name of the coffee shop. He wanted to complain about the name of the shop very early on, and it sounded too cute.
It is estimated that the store manager named it to fit the theme, otherwise why all the maids here have cat ears.
"It's not a coffee shop, it's a maid coffee shop." Aka Erina interrupted.
Because he was too nervous, Lihai Xiaoqiao suddenly made a 90° bow, and finished the standard junior lines very quickly:
"My name is Lihai Kohashi, and I would like to ask Uesugi-senpai to give me some advice in the days to come!"
".Um."
There were very few people visiting the coffee shop in the morning.
After noon, the otaku who came to consume came one after another.
Ryo Suzuki is one of them, but he is not an ordinary otaku, and is somewhat different from ordinary otaku.
He pays attention to both fashion and otaku activities, and usually dresses himself up very delicately at home.
My family is not poor, and I run a Western-style restaurant in the center of Minato-ku, Tokyo.
He is a very ordinary middle class, not particularly rich, but he has no worries about food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Usually, he doesn't feel the slightest otaku atmosphere outside, but he is also an otaku who is super interested in two-dimensional in his bones.
Recently, people on the Internet call them "now filling the house".
Ryo Suzuki is very humble. He thinks he is not qualified enough to be called a present house.
Because he has not fulfilled one of the most important conditions now - that is to talk about a girlfriend.
It's strange to say that he thinks that his qualifications are not bad, and he looks handsome, but why hasn't he even got a girlfriend in the third year of high school?
As soon as he graduates this year, he will go to help in the restaurant. He doesn't want to bear the pain so early, he will be very busy by then.
The less time you have, the fewer opportunities to fall in love.
As usual, taking advantage of free time, Ryo Suzuki came to the mimi maid coffee shop near his home.
He doesn't like to go to other maid cafes.
Because the two-dimensional concentration of the maids there is too high.
To eat omelet rice, you have to use the voice of a little girl to read out such shameful lines as "Magic Magic Chirp~~ Please Angel, please make the omelet rice super delicious!!".
Ryo Suzuki considered himself a otaku, but he also got goose bumps all over his body because of the super-high concentration of magic chirp.
In contrast, he prefers the maids in mimi coffee shop.
It will not be too intimate, nor too distant, just serve tea and dishes in a very ordinary way with a trace of respect, and say "Master, please take your time."
Just like a real maid.
This experience made him feel like a noble young master sitting in a luxurious room.
Naturally enjoy the respectful and considerate service.
And what about yourself?
He is also a gentle and humble handsome young master.
Never put on airs.
Very friendly to everyone.
Ryo Suzuki really likes the atmosphere of this store, and the decoration is not flattering, rather refined and quiet.
It's a pity that the business of this store is very average, and it is not up or down.
In order to support this coffee shop that he deeply loves, Ryo Suzuki will come here once every afternoon.
Jingle~
Pushing away the familiar glass, a fragrance of flowers and plants blows from the store.
Ryo Suzuki even felt that this moment was extremely enjoyable, this fragrance, this breeze, and the crisp ringing of the door.
Not many people know about it here, and not many people comment on it. It is a paradise where he can rest and enjoy himself.
"Welcome home, master." The cat-eared maid came over immediately, with her hands folded on the white apron, and with a natural smile on her face, she bent slightly towards him.
Of course, it is also very important that there are twin maids in this store.
Ryo Suzuki took the words naturally: "Yuri, isn't your sister here today?"
"Ah, yes, do you want to call her over? She's sleeping in the lounge now."
"Are you sleeping? Then don't bother."
"Okay," Tashiro Yuri nodded, then raised his eyebrows and asked, "What would the master want to drink today?"
"As usual." Ryo Suzuki looked at the front desk, "Hey, isn't your store manager making coffee today? Why did you change it?"
"That's the barista who just took over yesterday."
"He took office yesterday? Is that so."
As soon as he came in, he noticed that Ryo Suzuki thought that guy was too dazzling at the front desk.
He even subconsciously thought in his heart that this guy would definitely be popular with girls.
Not for any reason, just because he had seen it in school.
The student council president was just a little bit more handsome than him, so he was hugged by the flower group, happy and happy.
I heard that several famous and beautiful girls fought because of jealousy.
Reality is magical.
It feels like that kind of person can make a woman open a harem with all her heart in this modern society.
And the man at the front desk gave him this feeling even more.
How could someone look so amazing?
Ryo Suzuki carefully observed the other party's facial features, obviously. I don't feel anything special, just handsome, but why, the more I look at it, the more pleasing to the eye.
It's really weird, I never had such thoughts about that man before.
Could it be that I am.
Suzuki Ryo was afraid for a while, and hurriedly threw away this unrealistic idea.
"Does the master want to do as before?" the cat-eared maid asked softly in front of her.
"Everything else remains the same as usual, just replace the coffee with Masa Crane." Ryo Suzuki smiled immediately.
Suzuki Ryo, who withdrew his thoughts, decided not to worry about this, as long as he didn't take away the maids in the shop.
To be honest, after visiting this store for so long, it would be a lie to have no affection for the maids.
confession?
No, no, it's still a little too late.
Although the contact information has been requested, this matter must be discussed in the long run.
"Uesugi-kun, I'm sorry for a cup of Masa Crane." The cat-eared maid Yuri Tashiro came to the front desk holding the menu board.
"it is good."
Uesugi Kai took the small note from Tashiro Yuri.
The store manager was not there, so she went to the back kitchen to prepare the set meal.
The busiest time has passed, and there are not many customers in the store now. After clearing the table, Chi Erina went to rest near the front desk. She saw the list of Martha Crane written on the desk, and asked curiously :
"Is that customer broken in love?"
Xiaoqiao Lihai is learning how to adjust coffee to Uesugi Kai, and is puzzled by Aka Erina's inexplicable words:
"Why do you say that?"
Uesugi Kai explained while operating: "Martha Crane tastes bitter and sweet, which is quite weird. People who drink this are usually lovelorn, and this complex taste fits their complex emotions."
"Oh, that's it."
Aka Erina glanced at the person sitting by the window: "That customer is also a regular customer, and it's the first time he ordered such astringent coffee as Marsa Crane. He used to drink sweet cappuccino."
Uesugi asked: "You remember so clearly?"
"It's boring~ It's like this when I'm not busy, I remember everything clearly."
Aka Erina said boredly, laying her hands and head next to the cactus at the front desk, and the cat ears on her hair were still moving. She looked at Uesugi Kai's expression and asked:
"Uesugi-kun, what kind of girl is your wife?"
"Are you curious?"
"Of course! I feel that you are a mysterious, knowledgeable and handsome man. Who is not curious? Just like boys are also curious about what kind of person a beautiful girl is in private."
Uesugi Kai waited for the hot water in the pot to cool down, raised his head and asked, "What's my mystery?"
"For example," Aka Erina tilted her head, with half of her face lying on her arms, "You always ride a pink bicycle to work, and you usually like to be in a daze, and you also like to take out your phone to look at a very cute girl when you are resting." child."
"Well, it should be your wife? Why haven't you seen her? What kind of person is she?"
"What's so weird about riding a pink bike?"
"Of course it's strange! How can a boy ride with such a girly pink color." Aka Erina rubbed up.
"Who said pink is the representative color of girls?" Kai Uesugi held up the pouring pot and slowly poured warm water into the filter paper.
Xiaoqiao Lihai was learning skills while holding a small note, listening to their conversation.
Aka Erina climbed down again, the cat's ears moved, and suddenly smiled: "Uesugi-san, are you changing the topic, right? I remember I was asking about your wife, what kind of girl is she?" ? Let our mysterious handsome guy be willing to marry her."
"What do you ask this for?"
"It works for me! At least let me know what kind of girls handsome guys like."
Kai Uesugi stared at the cup of coffee dripping into the sharing pot in front of him.
"She is very pretty."
Both girls are looking at him.
"It's gone?"
"Gone."
"Uesugi-san, you probably had a fight with your wife, right?"
"Why do you think so suddenly?"
"This morning, when you mention her, you are always in a daze. Isn't this a quarrel? What is it? A daze means that you are thinking about her, and you will be in a daze when you think of her. You don't know, but I can see it clearly. "
Kaoru Uesugi had to admit that girls have a strong sixth sense, which bothered her a little.
Hearing what Aka Erina said, Kohashi Lihai looked curiously at Kai Uesugi's ecstatic facial expression,
Kaoru Uesugi: "."
"Arguing about it," Aka Erina said, "cough cough, no matter right or wrong, Uesugi-san, you should apologize to your wife earlier, which pair of male and female friends have never quarreled? Maybe they quarreled It's even better to argue with each other, don't you think so?"
"I can't apologize now." Kai Uesugi put the finished coffee on the tray, and the brown coffee was full of wisps of steam.
"Just finished the quarrel?"
"There was no quarrel."
"My gut tells me it's impossible."
"it is true."
"Where did you live apart?"
Uesugi Kai was silent for a moment: "Separated."
"Hey, I guess right."
Separated! ?
Xiaoqiao Lihai felt extremely incredible when he heard this.
You know, a week ago, she saw the couple so loving by the sea.
Could it be that it is really like the rumors that all girls have heard.
No matter how happy a couple is, they will be forced to separate because of certain disagreements?
For some reason, her heart was beating faster and faster.
If if if if if Uesugi-kun divorced because of this.
Then is it right?
The thought is only in the mind for a moment.
Xiaoqiao Lihai quickly shook off these messy thoughts.
No, Uesugi-kun is just the kind of fan worshiping idols.
just worship
Xiaoqiao Lihai let out a sigh of relief.
Aka Erina went on to say:
"Whether it's not a quarrel, it's a very important matter. There are different opinions. At least it can be regarded as a cold war."
cold war?
After Aka Erina said this, Uesugi Kai also began to think about why Hanabi suddenly told himself to leave.
At first it said one year, and then suddenly it said ten days.
There is a feeling that I want to promise myself.
She won't come back because of this excuse, right?
spark spark
Kaoru Uesugi began to imagine her appearance in his mind.
Standing in the sun, she held the straw hat on her head with her right hand, and smiled wildly at herself in a white dress.
Once people have this kind of thought, they will subconsciously think about it to a more serious level.
What would I do if she suddenly disappeared?
Uesugi Kai felt that his old problem was repeated, and was afraid that he would never see her smile again.
He hurriedly picked up the rag to wipe the front desk, and found something to do for himself, so he didn't think about it anymore.
The location by the window in the shop.
Ryo Suzuki got the coffee handed over by the cat-eared maid.
"Master, please use it slowly."
The aroma of coffee is very strong.
The barista was very young, and he was a little worried about the quality of the other party.
But when he sniffed the aroma of coffee and took a sip from his teacup, he was immediately overwhelmed by the smell.
Sour, sweet, bitter, all flavors are old.
Simply, it's like the smell of falling in love.
Although he has never been in love, he knows with certainty that this is the taste of broken love!
Ryo Suzuki took another sip of coffee, and his mouth and body were saying the word comfortable.
"Ah" couldn't help exhaling a breath of admiration.
He put down his cup and glanced at Uesugi Kai who was busy behind the front desk.
This guy has nothing to say about his skills, but he always feels that the other party's mood at this time is as complicated as the taste of this cup of coffee.
Could it be that you have lost your love?
Will such a handsome person fall in love?
