However, Shiraishi's mood was like being shrouded by dark clouds, without any sense of joy or ease. Although he had gone through many twists and turns and finally solved a mystery in his heart, this sense of accomplishment was soon swallowed up by another unknown - depression, looming, making it impossible for people to touch the truth.
Time passed quietly, and the afternoon sun slanted outside the glass window of the chain restaurant, bringing a hint of tranquility to the space that had been busy all afternoon.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, when the hustle and bustle of lunch gradually faded, the restaurant returned to its former calm. The tables that were originally full of people now only had a few scattered customers, enjoying a leisurely afternoon.
Shiraishi looked at this scene, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart, with both the relief of finishing work and the faint worry about the unknown future.
"Shiraishi, you can go home now." The voice of the store manager sounded at the right time.
"Then I'll take my leave first." Shiraishi responded with a smile, nodded to thank the store manager, and turned to the backstage of the restaurant. After a light tap on the time clock, he finished his day's work and walked into the lounge, ready to start his private time.
As soon as he entered the door, Shiraishi noticed that Tomoe was bending over to check the food in the refrigerator. The inadvertently exposed figure made him blurt out: "Koga, your back is really beautiful, but this may be seen by others."
Hearing this, Tomoe turned around quickly, subconsciously protecting her skirt with both hands, her cheeks slightly red, puffed up, glared at Shiraishi, and said angrily: "Senior, you really don't understand romance, you are still joking at this time."
Her appearance was both angry and cute, like a squirrel or a chubby hamster. The innocence and vitality made Shiraishi laugh out loud.
"The puffs in the refrigerator are a thank-you gift I prepared for you." Shiraishi quickly changed the subject, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"Didn't I say one was enough?" Tomoe complained, but her hand had already unconsciously reached out to the refrigerator and took out the white box full of puffs. Although the box was large, it couldn't hold Shiraishi's full heart.
"I bought this this morning at the famous puff shop near JR Ze Station. I hope you like it." Shiraishi explained, and pointed to the note on the refrigerator door that said "Koga's special puffs, please don't touch them without permission." This was a little surprise he left for Tomoe.
When Tomoe saw the note, she couldn't help laughing, but then she pretended to be angry and handed the note back to Shiraishi: "Senior, you are really a fool. You made me laugh at the part-time aunt, saying that I had to eat so many by myself."
"Then share it with everyone. Yukino and the others will be here soon." Shiraishi suggested.
"Why don't you just write it and give it to everyone?" Tomoe asked curiously.
"Isn't it more interesting to write like this? I can give you a little surprise." Shiraishi replied with a smile, crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into the trash can, as if throwing away the discomfort in his heart.
Peng Hui no longer pursued the matter. She tore off the sticker on the puff box, and the aroma of maple syrup instantly filled the entire lounge. SheCan't wait to open the box, looking at those exquisite puffs, with a happy light in her eyes.
As she took a big bite of the first puff, the sweet taste seemed to take away all her troubles, and her face was filled with a satisfied and happy smile.
Seeing this, Shiraishi also smiled knowingly. He took the opportunity to go around to the other side of the lounge and began to change his work clothes...0 In the small space of the locker room, he quickly took off his apron, top and pants.
Just then, he suddenly remembered something and turned to Penghui who was enjoying the puffs and said: "By the way, Koga, do you know the topic of dreaming that is very popular recently?"
Hearing this, Penghui stopped chewing and looked at Shiraishi with a slightly puzzled look: "Senior, you are asking this now? This has been a hot topic last month."
Shiraishi realized that he seemed to be a little behind the times. For Penghui who is at the forefront of fashion, this topic may no longer be fresh.
Shiraishi frowned slightly, and asked with curiosity and respect: "As a senior who can peek into the future, what is your opinion on this phenomenon?"
Pomori's answer was straightforward, with a hint of subtle complex emotions: "Actually, I feel quite uncomfortable about this."
Shiraishi smiled slightly, trying to ease the atmosphere with a relaxed tone: "After all, your simulation that can be experienced in advance on a monthly basis has an incomparable advantage over 1.3, right? At least you have time to prepare."
"But this is not a A competition." Peng Hui's tone was filled with helplessness, "Moreover, this ability, or this phenomenon, brings not only advantages, but also more unknowns and confusions." (To read the most exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Shiraishi nodded, showing his understanding, and continued to ask: "So, you don't think this is a pure rumor, but it has a basis?"
Peng Hui pondered for a moment, as if considering how to express: "Well... Actually, it's not me, but my friend Nana Yoneyama, who experienced a very incredible thing." .
