章 41: Ayumi
Ring, ring—
The familiar sound of a cell phone rang from the backpack.
Taking out his cell phone and looking at the number marked 'Doctor Fujitsubaki', Sasaki felt that she was here to announce the good news.
Sure enough, after answering the call, Tsubaki's first words were,
"The surgery went well and there were no adverse reactions. She is in good spirits. Do you want to meet her?"
Speaking in a tone as calm as an ancient well, saying words that would make any man's hair stand on end.
This calm look made Sasaki, who was also a man, click his lips in discomfort, but as a 'collaborator,' he could only sigh in his heart.
Walking along the bustling street, Sasaki inquired about the plans after Kirishima woke up.
"There's no need to see her. She probably doesn't want to see me very much. Do you have any plans for her after she wakes up?"
"arrange?"
Fujitsumi paused for a moment, then explained: "She signed a voluntary agreement. If the hospital, or rather I, don't let her out, she will stay here for observation, but we rarely do this."
Not wanting to know why they had so much power, Sasaki pondered for a moment and said,
"If possible, just keep her in the hospital for now. After all, she can't accept her new identity at the moment."
After saying this, as if afraid that Tsubaki, who wasn't too familiar with him, would refuse, he added before her response, "Anyway, I've also provided you with a test subject. You won't refuse this request, right? If she comes out now, it will cause a lot of trouble to me."
"Fine, it's just a simple request anyway.
But in exchange, if anyone behind you has any ideas in the future, please inform me as soon as possible."
Facing Sasaki's indifferent request, Tsubaki did not refuse.
However, because she needed time for experiments and had no one available, she wanted Sasaki to help her collect specimens...
After thinking for a while, Sasaki felt that this was not a bad thing and nodded in agreement.
Many friends mean many paths, not to mention she was also a doctor.
Moreover, the relationship between the two of them is not that of superiors and subordinates.
It's up to him whether he can find it or not, so there's no harm in agreeing.
"Okay, the process is the same as today?"
"Yes, I will send you the template of the business card soon. If the people around you have ideas, just ask them to sign on the back. Everything is voluntary."
Although Fujitsubaki's words were as emotionless as a puppet's throughout, hearing the nonchalant 'voluntary' and recalling Kirishima's desperate rush to the hospital this afternoon, while vomiting blood Sasaki couldn't help but want to laugh.
But since Dr. Tsubaki was so serious, he didn't want to spoil the atmosphere.
So after he breathed a sigh of relief, he nodded.
"Okay, if there's anyone, they'll be 'volunteering.'"
"Good."
After softly responding, Fuji Tsubaki brought up the matter she had promised earlier.
"Because the current experiments are funded by myself, the intermediary fee I'll give you may not be much, but it should be enough for you, a student, for some time. If you find it insufficient, in the future, if you need help, I can lend a hand."
After she said this, a message appeared on Sasaki's phone screen, indicating a deposit of 1 million yen.
Although for some wealthy people, this little money might not mean much, but in his opinion, it was enough to sustain him for a while.
It just so happened that it was time to change his mobile phone.
"Not bad at all. It'll cover my expenses. I'll contact you if I need anything in the future."
"Good."
After saying a few more polite words, he hung up the phone.
Looking at his phone with the screen turned off, the boy stood on the roadside, unconsciously thinking of Kirishima's appearance after the successful operation.
It's definitely impossible to say that he was not curious and didn't want to know what he looked like now.
But if he was asked to make a special trip to the hospital now, it would be unnecessary.
Although he was curious, he would not go to such great lengths for a yellow hair.
What's more, it's not impossible to see him in the future.
Moreover, her current mood should be very unstable.
So in order to prevent her from doing something inappropriate after seeing him, it was better to wait until she calmed down before talking.
After dispelling the thoughts in his mind, Sasaki walked towards the position given by Haruno Ayato.
Because the location was a commercial street, it was not difficult to find a mobile phone store.
Rather than going to the interview right away, he wanted to buy a mobile phone first.
After all, he now had money in hand and the perfect timing for a phone replacement, he believed any normal young person would succumb to such temptation.
As for which mobile phone to buy...rich people never choose, they just buy the latest model.
Although Sasaki really wanted to do this, he couldn't spend all his money on buying a mobile phone.
And since he was changing his mobile phone, he naturally wanted to buy one for Otome, who he just got into a relationship with today.
The whole couple style, and then hugging and saying a few nice words, wouldn't the bed be warmer tonight?
With ulterior thoughts in mind, Sasaki entered a mobile phone store and bought two mobile phones, one blue and one pink.
Although it was not the latest model, it had just been released, so it was not much different.
As for the mobile phone case that comes with the phone.
Because he couldn't figure out what his girlfriend wanted, Sasaki didn't choose.
Rather than being confused and making random choices, it was better to give the choice to Otome herself.
In this case, she can also have some sense of participation.
Girls are sensitive and delicate, long for romance, and like to create some beautiful memories or things with their loved ones.
This way of choosing things for each other also allows Otome to think about the two of them every time she holds her phone.
And with that girl's temperament, if she unilaterally accepted such an expensive gift from herself, she would definitely be distressed because she couldn't return the gift.
This matter of the phone case could help ease some of her worries.
As for how to eliminate the remaining troubles...it depends on Sasaki's own performance tonight.
With the anticipation for the evening at home, he arrived at the location provided by Haruno Ayato.
This convenience store had the name 'CLOVER' above it, and there was also a clover symbol next to it.
After comparing the information given by Ayato, he stepped inside.
Perhaps the convenience store wasn't that busy at the moment.
After entering, before he could look around, Haruno Ayato, wearing the uniform of a store clerk, waved at him with remarkable keenness.
"Sasaki-kun, this way, this way."
And Sasaki was not the only one who heard his call.
On the other side of the boy, Miwa Itsuki, who was packing bags for a customer, heard Haruno's call and followed his gaze.
What he saw was a tall guy wearing a pure black student uniform, with a slender body, a handsome face.
Although Miwa Itsuki slept most of the time during class, and didn't even know that his childhood friend was being h...cough talked to, he wasn't that much oblivious to his surroundings.
So he still has some impression of Sasaki.
However, since the two of them had not spoken to each other, the only impression he had was that the other party was good-looking and very tall.
As for the fact that his childhood friend was being accosted, he didn't feel anything about it because he had seen it so many times since he was a child.
Therefore, after noticing Sasaki, he just looked at him with curiosity and surprise, then turned his head.
And just like Miwa Itsuki, after seeing him, Sasaki was only attracted to him for a moment and then stopped paying attention.
Because he didn't like this guy, he walked to the cashier and had no intention of saying hello to him.
"Haruno."
Nodding to Haruno Ayato, Sasaki walked to the cashier.
Before he said anything else, he was pulled aside by the boy, who was doing nothing.
Behind the cashier counter, there was a door.
After pushing it open, a corridor appeared with doors on both sides.
On the left was the rest area where the staff changed and took breaks, and on the right was the boss's office.
After saying hello to Miwa Itsuki, Haruno Ayato pulled him into the changing room.
After pouring a glass of water for Sasaki, he looked at the boy who was still holding his schoolbag and said with a smile, "Have you just come out of school? I thought it would take two days for you to come."
Putting the warm tea handed to him on the table, Sasaki, knowing that he was talking about club matters, explained with a smile.
"I've already talked to Teacher Takamine. I didn't join the club, so there's not much to do."
"Oh, I see. I originally wanted to go home and talk to my sister and ask her to help."
Haruno Ayato looked surprised when he heard that Sasaki had already talked to Mrs. Takamine and she had agreed.
It was not like no one had approached her to discuss this matter before, but without exception, they all failed.
It seemed that Sasaki's reason for taking leave before was unusual.
Haruno Ayato, who didn't know about Sasaki's "Double Death Buff", muttered secretly.
"No need to bother, by the way, is the store manager here now?"
Shaking his head and rejecting the boy's kindness, Sasaki asked about the business.
Standing up from the seat opposite him, Haruno said softly: "I'm going to take a look. I saw the store manager entering the office before. She shouldn't have left yet."
After saying that, he asked Sasaki to wait here for a while while he opened the door of the changing room.
.
.
Not long after, he brought back good news.
"The manager hasn't left yet. She's still in the office. By the way, the manager's name is Ayumi. You can just call her Manager."
