There was a long silence.
"...Why don't you complain?"
Seeing the two people looking at her stupidly, Meijia felt embarrassed and her face turned redder.
"Do you want us to complain?" Seiji reacted.
"Of course, this...it's obvious!" Meijia blushed, "I... just pretended to be stupid, just joking."
It's too much, Uehara-san!
Seiji and Qianqiu looked at each other and smiled wryly.
"You managed to scare us, Mika." Qianqiu sighed, "Your performance is too high, Seiji and I are amazed."
"What are you talking about... Aren't you always like this?" The girl with ponytails was dumbfounded, "I'm just imitating you."
"Imitate...well, that's good." Seiji said helplessly.
It seems that Meijia just wants to make a joke in reverse, but the acting is so good that people can't react.
There was another silence.
"Come on, what do you want to say to me?"
Qian Qiu forcibly turned over the page just now, and brought the topic back to the serious direction.
"Is such that… "
…
Seiji basically told Chiaki about the "over there".
Qianqiu was surprised by what he heard, but accepted it relatively quickly.
"The dark side hidden in the world, onmyoji and shikigami... I never thought that reality would be as bizarre as the movie."
"But there will be things, right? What happens in reality is the same as in movies or TV dramas, or even more peculiar... and so on."
At this moment, the three of them were in the park, drinking drinks bought from a roadside vending machine.
After the beauty in men's clothing sighed, she was silent for a while, and then looked at the two friends.
"Thank you for telling me this."
She smiled.
"I'm glad you guys are confessing to me instead of hiding."
"I don't know what else to say... We're good friends and always will be, just like before, right?"
Seiji and Mika looked at her and also smiled.
"Of course." The two said in unison.
The three looked at each other and smiled.
After that, Seiji took Mika back to the apartment first, and then sent Qianqiu home.
On the way, the two were speechless for a while.
"Seiji... Actually, I'm a little depressed right now."
After being silent for a while, the beauty in men's clothing sighed, expressing her true feelings.
"I'm really happy that you guys told me the secret, but at the same time... there's a feeling of being told by you, 'You're just an ordinary person, not like us'."
"I know I'm overthinking this, but I can't control my emotions... Really."
Seiji looked at her with gentle eyes.
"If you can't control it, then don't control it, just express it, and I will listen to your complaints."
"Just listen to me complain?"
"Then what else do you want?"
Qianqiu looked at him, his eyes flickering.
"I want to drink! I want you to drink with me!!"
Seiji: "..."
"Not allowed to reject! Not allowed to speak, that's it!"
Before Seiji could speak, Qianqiu played tricks.
Almost like a child having a temper tantrum.
Seiji sighed.
"How do you want to drink?"
"Go to the bar for a drink!"
Seiji silently raised his hand, clenched into a fist, exuding the aura of "if it goes too far, I will punish you with an iron fist".
Recalling the terror of being dominated by an iron fist, Qianqiu faltered.
"Then... come to my house to drink."
Seiji thought silently.
"Come on, drink a little at my house, it's nothing." Qian Qiu grabbed his arm and shook it.
"I... I'm really depressed, I want you to accompany me~"
Faced with such a straightforward act like a spoiled child, Seiji sighed again.
"I really can only drink a little."
"You promised!?"
"If I don't agree, you'll drink it yourself." Seiji looked at her face.
"Hey~" Qianqiu stuck out her tongue and laughed.
The appearance is very cute, but Seiji has the urge to punch him down!
Forget it, she said that she was depressed, which should be true... Let's just drink with her this time.
Having made a decision, Seiji accompanied Chiaki back to her apartment.
Qian Qiu took him into the apartment, took the elevator upstairs, and walked to the door of his own house.
"Please come in."
"excuse me."
Seiji walked into Chiaki's house for the first time.
The living room is very luxurious, like the kind that would appear in idol TV dramas, spacious and bright, with fine decoration and full of gorgeousness.
What attracts the most attention is the many paintings hanging on the walls, including landscape paintings and figure paintings, realistic and abstract, which look quite compelling.
Seiji remembered that Mika had said that Chiaki's father was a famous painter.
These paintings on the wall should be her father's works, right
"Sit whatever you want, I'll get the wine!" Qian Qiu said, and then walked to other rooms.
Seiji did not sit down, but looked at the paintings on the wall.
He doesn't know how to appreciate, and he can't see the value of these paintings, he just looks at them by feeling.
After looking at a few pictures, I thought they were pretty good, and then I saw a figure painting.
The painting is a woman in a long skirt, amidst the flying cherry blossoms, holding her hair with her hand, looking back suddenly.
The whole picture is beautiful, but the heroine only shows the side face, and the eyes are blocked by the petals, so she can't see her face clearly.
It's quite imaginative, but in general... Seiji doesn't know how to describe it.
The indescribable perception made him a little entangled, and he stared at the painting for a long time unconsciously.
"The wine is here!"
It was Qianqiu's voice that brought him back to his senses.
Looking back, I saw a rather expensive bottle of red wine and two goblets on the plate brought out by the other party.
The labels on the bottles... should be in French. Seiji couldn't understand.
In short, looking at this wine, I feel that it will not be cheap. Is it really okay to drink this wine
"What kind of red wine is this, Qianqiu?"
"I don't know, I just picked it up from Dad's collection."
"Didn't you take a very expensive good bar?"
"No, I just took a bottle at random. I've drank a lot of similar wines... Well, it looks like there are many more of the same wine. It's not a rare commodity."
"... If you are scolded by your father, I don't care."
"Don't worry, it won't. If he wants to say that he has to be at home first, it's not that he doesn't come back several times a year." Qian Qiu laughed.
Her expression was natural, but Seiji could hear a trace of loneliness hidden deep in her words.
Alone at home... How did Qianqiu live? Suddenly he wondered.
At this time, the beauty in men's clothing took out the corkscrew, uncorked the wine skillfully, and poured the wine.
The rich aroma of wine immediately permeated the air.
Just by the mellow aroma, it can be concluded that this wine is not ordinary.
Seiji is not a sommelier, but he has experience, and doubts arose in his heart again: Is this bottle of wine really just a casual thing
Is it because the quality of wine in this world is relatively high, or is Qianqiu's family too rich
"Come on, cheers!"
After pouring the wine, Qianqiu picked up a glass and motioned for Seiji to pick up another glass.
"… cheers."
Seiji picked up the cup, touched it lightly with the other party, and brought it to his mouth.
After smelling the moving aroma, he tilted the cup and drank the fragrant and mellow liquid slowly.
The wine enters the throat, and the lips and teeth remain fragrant.
Really good wine.
After Seiji put down the cup, he let out a sigh of relief.
Then he saw a sweet smile on the face of the silver-haired beautiful girl opposite.
