Therefore, it's best to be cautious and try to think carefully about the meaning behind every person's words.
However, for Tokisaki Kurumi, Kanzaki Teru's vigilance actually hurt her girlish heart.
"Never mind, he's such a blockhead."
She lightly leaped off Kanzaki Teru, but deliberately used Kanzaki Teru's stomach for leverage.
This caused Kanzaki Hikaru to let out a painful "uh" sound from his throat, which also contained Tokisaki Kurumi's thoughts of revenge.
Struggling to get up from the ground, he saw Tokisaki Kurumi's uninterested expression.
I sat at the table, quietly savoring the steaming black tea in my cup.
However, Kanzaki Teru had no idea when she brewed the black tea, and even though the tea set hadn't been there at all.
However, there was a cup of black tea on the table, which seemed to be prepared for him.
However, compared to all of that, Kanzaki Teru's unexpected actions just now left him somewhat puzzled.
Seeing Kanzaki Teru get up from the ground, Tokisaki Kurumi raised her chin, gesturing for him to sit opposite her.
However, she still looked a little unhappy, like a little girl throwing a tantrum.
Although Kanzaki Teru was eager to obtain information, compared to that...
The more important thing right now is to make Tokisaki Kurumi feel better, but he has no idea why she's angry.
A silence spread between the two of them, like a plague reaching every corner of the room.
Kanzaki Teru quietly sipped his black tea, occasionally glancing at Tokisaki Kurumi's profile.
They were looking for the right moment to speak, but sometimes their eyes would meet.
At this point, Kurumi Tokisaki would snort coldly and turn her head to the side, completely refusing to talk, but...
If Kurumi really didn't want to talk to herself, she would have left long ago.
So in other words, she still has a reason to stay here, and all I can do is—
Clearing his throat, Kanzaki Teru didn't know what Tokisaki Kurumi's purpose was.
However, they would definitely not let things get any worse, since even Kanzaki Teru was finding the oppressive atmosphere hard to bear.
"Ah...ah, that—"
But when it came time to actually speak, the words stuck in my throat.
Although Kurumi Tokisaki still turned her head to the side, her attention had clearly shifted to Hikaru Kanzaki.
"Feel sorry......"
Even if you don't know why the other person is angry, it's always good to apologize first.
"What are you apologizing for?"
However, Tokisaki Kurumi seemed to have guessed what Kanzaki Teru was thinking and relentlessly pursued this point.
"That...that's it! Yes! That's it!"
However, after giving that answer, she was met with Tokisaki Kurumi's cold gaze.
"I'm sorry! I really don't know why! Although it's not exactly an apology, I can grant you one request!"
"Oh, is anything acceptable?"
"As long as I can do it!"
"Then can you go and die?"
“This is a bit…”
"Hmph, didn't you say you could do anything? It seems your determination isn't all that great after all."
Upon hearing Kurumi Tokisaki's words, Teru Kanzaki lowered his head, speechless.
Chapter 250: The Descent of Night
"Pfft, hahaha, Kanzaki-kun, your reaction is really interesting."
Just kidding, I'm not really angry.
Besides, if I were really angry, I wouldn't be sitting here waiting for you.
However, when Kanzaki Teru looked up, she was met with Tokisaki Kurumi's face, which looked like she had successfully pulled off a prank.
He rested his chin on one hand, staring at Kanzaki Teru with a faint smile on his lips.
"you--!"
Kanzaki Teru was about to say something, but he swallowed his words back.
Was that really acting? For some reason, this question arose in Kanzaki Teru's mind.
A lie mixed with truth appears more real, so truth is always hidden beneath a lie.
Thinking of this, Kanzaki Teru didn't say what he had just wanted to say.
"I'm really defeated by you..."
With a helpless sigh, Kanzaki Teru also downed the black tea in his cup in one gulp.
For some reason, the aroma of this black tea seems even stronger now.
Even if you say that, you can't go back on your promise to me.
What did I promise you?
"Didn't you say you could make any request?"
"That one..."
"Don't even think about running away."
Her eyes were fixed on Kanzaki Teru, and at some point, the smile on Tokisaki Kurumi's face had disappeared.
"Okay, okay, but as I said before, I can't agree to anything too outrageous."
"Don't worry, I have no interest in your life, but if you're not feeling well..."
"What did you just say?"
"Oh my, are you that concerned about me?"
"Since there's nothing else, let's get down to business."
Although Kurumi's face seemed a little red, judging from her reaction, it seemed like everything was fine.
"Oh ho ho ho ho, okay, okay, anyway, I have this card in my hand now."
But if you want to back out, then don't blame me...
Although it wasn't explicitly stated what would happen next, Kanzaki Teru could roughly guess.
"Don't worry, a gentleman's word is his bond."
"In that case, I'm relieved."
Seeing Tokisaki Kurumi's expression, Kanzaki Teru was also a little stunned. This seemed to be the first time he had seen Tokisaki Kurumi smile so happily.
Although she usually wears a faint smile, that smile always gives people a sense of elusiveness.
And now it seems like only now is I getting a glimpse of her true feelings.
"Honestly, we've wasted so much time. Now we can get down to business."
"Okay, okay, really, are you in such a hurry?"
As she spoke, Kurumi Tokisaki took out a photograph from her chest.
But logically speaking, why would she put that photo there?
"what is this?"
Kanzaki Teru felt nauseous after glancing at the contents of the photo.
Although I thought the nightmare I saw a couple of days ago was disgusting enough, I never imagined there could be something this disgusting.
Just one glance at this thing made one feel their SAN value plummet. Kanzaki Teru couldn't even tell what the prototype of this thing was.
"This is your favorite ghost."
"What did you do!?"
"Oh, hehehe, so that's what you think of me?"
·· ···Request flowers······
It's understandable that Kanzaki Hikaru thinks this way, since Tokisaki Kurumi has been guiding him to think in this direction.
"So what exactly happened?"
Actually, this is—
......
"Oh dear, Kanzaki-kun has really given me a troublesome task."
After receiving Kanzaki Hikaru's request, Tokisaki Kurumi also felt helpless.
After all, that person always gave her some difficult tasks, but luckily she really did have some connection with these strange creatures.
Standing atop the tall building, Kurumi Tokisaki felt the gentle breeze caressing her face.
....... ........ .......
In this slightly chilly season, her favorite thing to do is stand here and look out over the whole city.
It was quite hot a few days ago, but the temperature dropped rapidly once October arrived.
Such temperature changes are quite difficult to adapt to, but that's precisely what makes this city interesting.
Kurumi wasn't in a hurry to make a move because the sky hadn't darkened at all.
She knew perfectly well that the monsters only came out at night, and although she didn't know why, it didn't matter.
As the sun gradually disappeared, Kurumi Tokisaki stretched.
In stark contrast to the dormant sun, the city is just beginning to awaken.
