"Asakawa-san, what's wrong?"
Yotsuba asked curiously.
"This is Furuhashi..."
Naoki put down his phone and explained the situation again.
"Stalker?" Yotsuba was startled and hurriedly said, "Then hurry up and go, Furuhashi-san is home alone, so she must be really scared right now."
Ichika also sat up straight "Go Asakawa-kun, leave the security of this house to me and Yotsuba."
You know your own uses!
The so-called house keepers themselves were people who squatted at home all day and whose sole purpose was to guard the door, that was a very common vocabulary, and it was not surprising at all.
"I go."
Naoki put on his shoes and went out.
The apartment suddenly became quiet.
Yotsuba took his plate "Ichika, time to eat."
Ichika supports her cheek: "Does Yotsuba know about Furuhashi-san?"
Yotsuba shook her head: "I don't know, this is the first time I've heard Asakawa-san say that stalkers are really scary."
"That stalker can't catch you at all." Ichika complained, then said "I was talking about Asakawa-kun and Furuhashi-san."
Yotsuba looked away and scratched his hair: "I don't know."
"I didn't say anything about it, so you deny it." Ichika lay lazily in the kotatsu, "You seem to know that."
...
At the same time.
In the corridor.
Naoki sent a message to Furuhashi: "Where are you?"
"I am at home." Furuhashi quickly replied, "The doors and windows have been locked, so don't rush in here..."
The next moment.
Naoki's voice sounded behind Furuhashi: "I'm here."
"Eh?"
The voice that suddenly sounded from behind startled Furuhashi, his right hand shook, and his cell phone was almost thrown.
"Why did you suddenly come here?"
Naoki removed his finger on his brow, and looked at Furuhashi, only to find that Furuhashi only had a white bathrobe on his body, and his hair was still wet, apparently having just finished bathing.
"Teleportation, naturally comes in the blink of an eye."
Furuhashi patted his chest and anger: "Suddenly appeared behind other people, I was almost scared to death by you, I thought the stalker who sneaked in..."
Before she could finish speaking, Furuhashi suddenly felt a chill run down his body.
She was so excited that she paid no attention to his body, resulting in his white bathrobe slipping right off her.
So white.
Her skin was as white as snow, and dazzling white under the light. The only person she could compare to was Yuika.
"Hyaa..."
Furuhashi screamed softly, hurriedly covered his body, squatted down, blushed and looked at Naoki: "Close your eyes!"
Naoki said firmly:
"Same as covering the face?"
"The gap between your fingers is so big, you don't cover your eyes at all, okay!" Furuhashi complained, "Turn around!"
Naoki turned around helplessly: "It's not like I haven't seen it."
Furuhashi was angry.
"You said it!"
Naoki turned around, heard the voice of Furuhashi dressed behind him, and asked:
"Why are you taking a shower now?"
"After leaving school at night, I went to eat barbecue with Kashima and the others. There was a smell of oil smoke, so I took a shower when I got back."
Naoki turned around and looked at Furuhashi:
"What about stalkers?"
"I don't know." Furuhashi shook his head and ran his fingers through the hair around his ears, "After I got out of the bathroom, I went to my room to get my cell phone, looked down at the window, and saw a man wearing a jacket and a mask..."
Furuhashi nervously covered his chest: "Even though I can't see his face clearly, it must be that person."
In other words, she thought she was safe and sound all along, but she's been tracked down?
Naoki raised his eyebrows slightly: "Go to your room."
"Um."
"Dry your hair first." Naoki took the hairdryer, "Don't catch a cold."
...
After helping Furuhashi dry her hair, Naoki and Furuhashi walked to the second floor together and returned to the bedroom.
The door just closed, but did not close.
Suddenly found that the stalker was downstairs in his house, Furuhashi was really shocked at the time, hurriedly left the window, and ran downstairs directly.
Naoki walked to the window, drew the blinds open, and looked outside.
The long road is cold.
The streets were empty, no one was there, and no one suspicious at all.
Furuhashi held Naoki's finger, walked carefully to the window, looked down, and quickly breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's gone..."
If it wasn't for Naoki by her side, she wouldn't even dare come to the window.
"It's likely hiding." Naoki continued to observe.
Furuhashi hesitantly said:
"I haven't felt followed in a long time... Could it be that person just happened to pass by my house downstairs?"
There are no such coincidences in the world, if you are lucky, tragedies happen often!
"Better to be safe than sorry." Naoki said briefly, "If you don't get rid of that stalker, you definitely won't dare to sleep at night."
Furuhashi whispered:
"But that person is gone…"
Naoki said: "I have a way."
"Uh, what can you do?"
"It's very simple." Naoki closed the curtains and looked at Furuhashi "But it needs your cooperation."
Furuhashi was curious: "How to cooperate?"
Naoki pointed to the bed: "Just sit down."
Furuhashi sat by the bed: "Then?"
Then Furuhashi was surprised to find that Naoki actually came to kiss her, so she hurriedly leaned in to avoid him, clenched his fists shyly and said:
"You still want to bully me at this time!"
"You misunderstand." Naoki stretched out his hand to hug Furuhashi's waist "I'm doing some serious business."
"This is definitely not serious at all!"
....
A moment later.
Naoki let go of the confused Furuhashi, walked to the table and sat down.
"What has happened?"
Furuhashi covered his forehead with his right hand. "Why just kiss the forehead?"
Furuhashi walked behind Naoki with a blushing face, and looking at the paper, she saw Naoki's pen like it was flying, sketching the characters on the paper.
In just one minute, a man wearing a jacket and mask appeared on the Furuhashi paper opened his eyes in surprise and found that it was exactly the same as the image in his mind.
"Are you just wondering what this person looks like?" Furuhashi quickly understood, and said speechlessly, "You said it earlier, and I can draw it."
Naoki put down his pencil and looked at Furuhashi: "Okay, it's really because I want to kiss you."
"... Pervert."
Furuhashi blushed and looked away.
Naoki continues: "I will always like Fumino."
"Do not say that."
Naoki stood up and picked up the character sketch he had just drawn: "Let's go outside."
Furuhashi agreed and said curiously:
"Where are we going, police station?"
"Don't go to the police station." Naoki shook his head "Go to the park."
With the efficiency of the Japanese police, the chances of finding a stalker are slim. In addition, even if someone is found, the other party can completely justify that they passed under... Whether it is the European and American legal systems or the civil legal system, they all pay attention to evidence, there is no evidence, then they cannot be convicted.
Therefore, Naoki naturally chose to face the creature like a lone stalker.
...
The two left the house and soon arrived at a small park not far away.
The evening breeze is cool.
Pale moonlight.
It was the middle of winter, and the wind in the garden was so cold that no one could see him.
"That person is hiding in the garden?"
Furuhashi hugged Naoki's arm nervously and looked around carefully.
"Obviously nothing."
Naoki raised his head, looked up at the black night sky, and whistled.
There was a dull crow in the forest, followed by the sound of a bird flapping its wings.
Furuhashi looked up, and saw a black bird flying down: "Is that a crow?"
Crows are birds of mourning in China and often represent the unknown, but in Japan, crows are actually very popular.
Firstly, crows have the highest IQ among birds, and secondly, crows are still very few birds that can feed back.
In addition to Japan, crows are also very popular in England, for example, on the top of the Tower of London, there are still some crows that are bred. They are even specially equipped with crow guards, because according to legend, once the crows flew away from the Tower of London, England would be attacked!
Naoki looked at the crow in front of him and said directly:
"Call your friend."
"Koak Koak."
The crow screamed, rapidly flapped its wings, and disappeared into the night.
Furuhashi turned his head in surprise: "Can you talk to crows?"
Naoki of course said:
"As an Esper, talking to animals is normal, right?"
....
After a long wait, the sound of flapping wings echoed through the night.
A group of more than a dozen crows flapped their wings and flew up, croaking around Naoki, it looked extraordinarily magical.
Luckily no one else was in the park. Otherwise, there would surely be an urban legend about the lord of the crows.
Naoki pulled out the character sketch, showed it to the crows in front of him, and offered a reward:
"Help me find this man, the reward is a loaf of bread, and an extra can."
A flock of crows flapped their wings and quickly dispersed in the night.
Furuhashi said in surprise:
"It's kind of amazing to ask a crow to help find someone… But let the crow help and give some bread?"
"The emperor can't command hungry soldiers, his reward is justified and indispensable." Naoki looked at Furuhashi and said firmly, "So please give me a present."
Furuhashi quickly covered his chest with a blush: "No reward."
"You will rub my back."
"Not."
"How about a lap pillow?"
"Also not."
Naoki sighed: "Not this, not that, I can only take it back and pay off the debt."
....
The two sat on the bench and chatted while waiting for the crow to return.
A cold wind blew, and Furuhashi shuddered, raised both hands, and quickly covered his nose:
"Achoo-"
It was just an ordinary sneeze, and it fell into Naoki's eyes, but Furuhashi had an indescribable cuteness.
Naoki just stretched out his hand, hugged Furuhashi's waist, and hugged Furuhashi into his arms.
Furuhashi blushed, hurriedly supported Naoki's chest, and whispered, "Someone will see."
Naoki naturally won't let go:
"On such a cold day, no one would come here but us."
Furuhashi made a symbolic effort, and then leaned against Naoki's neck, feeling a familiar warmth wrap around his body, and sighed softly:
"It's already winter before you know it."
"Um."
"After the ball, it's almost winter break. After the winter holidays is the New Year. After New Years, it's the third year of high school… Time flies so fast."
"Um."
"Asumi senpai is still more than a month away from the college entrance exams. Recently I feel that senpai is in good shape, and she is very energetic every day…"
Of course not bad, every day buff profits, poured out from hard work!"
"Sawako should have been under a lot of pressure these two days. I often see her in a daze alone… Your hand!"
Furuhashi gently touched Naoki's chin with his forehead.
It's just a bit on the waist, but still wants to stretch it.
After talking for a while, a group of crows flew back quickly, crowing incessantly.
Naoki listened carefully and quickly said:
"The man has been found."
"Where's that?"
"Pachinko shop out front."
Naoki kept his word, gave each of the crows a piece of bread, and then led the way with the finding crow and with Furuhashi came to the door a small steel ball.
"How can there be a Pachinko shop in such a remote place?" Furuhashi was shocked.
Naoki said: "Wherever there are people, there is Pachinko. After all, this is a national-level entertainment project."
"What kind of entertainment, this is clearly a gamble." Furuhashi is quite wary of pachinko. "You don't want to play this kind of thing, I heard from friends that his older brother was so addicted to pachinko that he didn't even go to college in the end."
Games like gambling are often addicting and addictive. Some people feel that they are talented and have a strong will. Only in the end did they realize that the willpower of an ordinary person was useless.
In dealing with gambling, the most correct way is to stay away from it, and don't even touch it.
Naoki looked around the shop and quickly found a man in a raincoat in the corner: "I found him."
Furuhashi also saw the man in the jacket in the corner, hiding behind Naoki, and whispered:
"There he is."
"I'll go in and have a look." Naoki calmly said, "If it happens to pass outside your house, that's fine."
Furuhashi nodded lightly: "Let's go in together."
"It is a smoking area. You smelled like smoke when you came in, and you've cleaned yourself up." Naoki said softly "Wait for me at the door."
Furuhashi nodded lightly, and saw Naoki walking into the Pachinko shop.
Naoki quickly walked up to the man in the trench coat, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
The man in the trench coat looked suspiciously.
Four eyes facing each other.
Mind reading enabled.
"Of course a stalker."
Naoki was expressionless, he directly modified the other party's memory, and then added a nightmare ridden curse, turned around and left the shop.
Furuhashi looked ahead at the door: "It's over?"
Naoki nodded: "That stalker will never appear again."
