"I think there's something wrong with your family."
？？？
After hearing this, Riki Amber felt that the world had become even more fantastical.
She looked at Huai Shi strangely. "How can you think that there's nothing wrong with our family? Anyone with eyes should know that there's something wrong, right? "
"Huh?"
Huai Shi was a little stunned and immediately embarrassed. "My family used to be like this, I thought it was quite normal …"
"…"
Amber rolled his eyes when he saw this.
"As long as there are too many people, there will be problems everywhere. Once there's too much money, there will be problems even if there's nothing wrong. It's not strange that there's something wrong with the Riki Family, but it's strange that there's nothing wrong with them. "
"No, I'm just sure of one thing."
Huai Shi sighed softly. "These days, I've been thinking about why Sasaki didn't want to show up, but insisted on secretly tracking the clues of the murderer.
Is there a possibility that … he realized that the Riki Family can't be trusted anymore? "
After a pause, his expression became gloomy. "That is to say … if the situation is worse, the murderer may be hiding in the Riki Family now, right?"
Amber didn't say anything, so she just shrugged.
"Who do you think it could be?"
Huai Shi stared at her, and she also looked at Huai Shi without saying anything.
Huai Shi also didn't say anything, but looked straight at her, as if he was going to force her to say something with his telekinesis.
"Huai Shi, I didn't invite you to be a detective."
"Isn't it normal for a tool to have multiple jobs?" Huai Shi smoked and squinted at her. "Besides, didn't you tell me about this in the first place? Why are all of you Riki Family members the same, saying one thing after another, one thing after the other? No matter what you say, you're always right, huh? "
"It's different now …"
Amber answered expressionlessly. "If you were just a tool, I would've pushed you into the mud pit and used you until you got back 70 million yuan. But Zhen Xi is different, she has nothing to do with these scandals."
Huai Shi was speechless. "You're really planning for Zhen Xi?"
"What else? If given the chance, who wouldn't want to be a good person? "Hu Po shook his head." The only difference is who can be the bad guy when something happens … "
Huai Shi sighed. "To be honest, everyone looks like a murderer to me now, including you."
"What about Maki?" Amber asked.
"Forget it …" Huai Shi shook his head. "She was the first person I checked, but she couldn't even hold a kitchen knife. With her weight and strength, she couldn't even cut a chicken's neck, let alone a human neck. Don't make things difficult for her. "
"It might not be impossible, right?" Hu Po asked.
"It's not that it's not certain. It's absolutely impossible." Huai Shi answered her flatly. "With her physical strength and condition, there is only one person in the world who can do such a thing. We all know that person, don't we?"
The corners of Hu Po's eyes twitched violently.
He didn't say anything.
Who else could it be?
Luo Xian.
If it was Sister Xian, she might be able to kill her way from Nara to Kyoto with a small piece of paper in her hand … But if it was really her, she didn't need to hide at all. She could kill everyone in the Riken family with a kitchen knife.
Maybe there was a second person in the world who had such a talent, but it definitely couldn't be Maki.
The probability of this was even more exaggerated than Huai Shi going out to buy a pack of cigarettes and running into eight destructive elements.
"You really trust her."
"Trust is mutual, Hu Po."
Huai Shi looked over and stared into Hu Po's eyes. "So, answer me, are you a murderer?"
Hu Po was amused and suddenly asked, "Huai Shi, do you hate your family?"
"It depends." Huai Shi said, "Although I want to beat them up sometimes, it's not like I hate them to the point of being irreconcilable. If we can't live together, we can live separately. Isn't it the same? "
"That's great, Huai Shi. I want to be like you, but unfortunately, I can't be so forgiving. "
Amber pinched out his cigarette and stamped it out. He looked around calmly. "There were many times when I really wanted to kill those idiots who made a fool of themselves, but unfortunately, in this world, there's no end to those stupid teammates who drag others down.
What's even more regrettable is that I can't do that … The murderer can be anyone here, but it can't be me. "
His expression was full of regret and regret.
As well as envy that could not be faked.
Huai Shi sighed. "If you have any deep hatred for this place, you can just say it. Take out some evidence of those guys doing shameful things, pull in the Dongxia family, and we'll team up to do a dungeon. I'll kill them from the front door to the back door with you. Isn't that easier than competing with others in cooking? "
"In that case, the Riken family won't exist at all, right?"
Hu Po shook his head. "It takes many years to build a family and many people's efforts, but it only takes an instant to destroy a family.
I didn't come back to destroy all of this, and I didn't hire you because you're good at chopping off people's heads. Don't be mistaken. "
"It sounds like you have great expectations for me."
"That's right, Your Highness."
Hu Po looked at him one last time and said seriously, "Just focus on being a chef. This is a very promising job. You don't have to worry about anything else."
Hu Po waved his hand and turned to leave.
In the end, she didn't tell Huai Shi about her suspicions.
She was fooled.
However, Huai Shi's impression of Zhen Xi had changed quite a bit after seeing her care and concern. Even if to her, it was just a little bit of extra space that slipped through her fingers …
He casually put the lighter in his hand into his pocket. He turned around and walked out of the door. He saw the girl who had been waiting for a long time under the sun.
She was happily waving at Miss Huai Shi.
Zhen Xi.
"Miss Huai Shi, you've worked hard. They didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
With the excuse of caring, Zhen Xi grabbed Miss Huai Shi's little hand and carefully rubbed it. "I was so worried about you … It's good that you're fine."
No, no matter how you look at it, it's more like you're lusting after my body.
Huai Shi began to have a headache.
He secretly and forcefully pulled his hand out of her grasp. Then he raised his hand and pressed it against her forehead, blocking Zhen Xi who was about to pounce on him. He kept a safe distance. He didn't have such a thing as a chest. What if he touched something indescribable and terrifying?
"It's just a little while. You don't have to be so anxious, right?"
"Because I'm worried!" Zhen Xi tried to move forward while resisting her hand. She accidentally said what she was thinking, "Uncle Jiaoshan said that those old men aren't good people. I think they're just lusting after Miss Huai Shi's beauty …"
Wasn't that the plot in the little booklet in the convenience store?
Once their weakness was caught, they would be forced to do this and that by those perverted old men. Thinking of this, Zhen Xi wanted to bite her handkerchief. Her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.
She didn't know if she was envious or angry.
"Can you be serious for a moment?"
Huai Shi curled her fingers and mercilessly knocked her on the head. She curled her lips and said, "Everyone had a friendly discussion, cleared up the rumors, cleared up the misunderstanding, and reserved their opinions. The meeting ended in a harmonious atmosphere."
"Ah, such a bureaucratic tone!"
"Anyway, it's just some meaningless pretense. Don't worry about it." Huai Shi said, "Instead of worrying about this, you should worry about where to sleep at night. The house has been destroyed. What should we do? "
"Don't worry about that." Zhen Xi became excited again, "Uncle Jiaoshan gave us a big house! Even the kitchen is much more spacious than before … There's even a private hot spring in the back! It's said that it's good for the skin. Let's go to the hot spring together after we go back! "
"Hot spring? Forget it. I'm not interested in hot water. "
"Hey, let's go together! Let's go together!" Zhen Xi wagged her little invisible tail and ran back and forth around Miss Huai Shi. Her eyes were full of hope, "Miss Huai Shi's skin is so good. Let me soak in it and let me bask in it."
Huai Shi could only look up at the sky and sigh.
It's not a matter of basking in the light or not. It's a matter of whether some of your thoughts can be seen in the light or not.
"No."
He refused decisively, "I'm tired. Let's go home and sleep."
"Okay …"
Zhen Xi followed beside him dejectedly. Her dejected look made Huai Shi feel like she had done something unforgivable.
He sighed and couldn't help but shake his head, "Zhen Xi, you're going to run for the head of the family. Don't always act like a child."
"It's just going through the motions anyway." Zhen Xi shook her head nonchalantly. "Being the head of the family is something that cousin Hu Po and cousin Jiu Jing should worry about. Just the thought of having to deal with those old fogeys every day makes me feel terrible. It's too scary …"
"Eh? When you first decided to run for the head of the family, you still acted like you were very powerful. " Huai Shi sighed, "I think that if you're serious, you'll be able to get the hang of it very quickly."
"This is different. Although I've had that kind of dream before, it feels completely different from what I imagined."
Zhen Xi looked away and muttered in a low voice, "Anyway, if I had to stay in a place like this for the rest of my life, I definitely wouldn't be able to bear it.
Even if I had a very comfortable bed and could earn a lot of money, it would still be very sad. Anyway, I'm very old-fashioned. The life in the television doesn't suit me. "
When she said this, it made people feel like she was a country bumpkin who had nothing to lose.
Huai Shi didn't know whether to sympathize or be surprised.
He was just a little worried.
"Zhen Xi, are you okay?"
"… I'm sorry. It's just that when I think about Miss Huai Zhi leaving after the competition, I feel a little sad."
Zhen Xi lowered her head and pulled Huai Shi's sleeve, looking pitiful, "No matter how powerful I looked before, I was just a fox pretending to be a tiger. Once Miss Huai Zhi is gone, I'll definitely be beaten back to square one. Can't I stay for a while longer? "
"Sorry, I'm afraid that's very difficult. After all, there's still a lot of work to do."
Huai Shi replied helplessly, "Don't be sad. Even if I'm not here, Hu Po will definitely take care of you."
"But that's different from Miss Huai Zhi."
Zhen Xi shook her head, "I know that my cousin Hu Po definitely won't care, but I don't want to live under someone else's roof. Since I was young, my mother has always said that if you don't work, you won't eat. If I want to truly live a peaceful life, I really have to find a stable job, right? "
"Hmm? You've already thought about it? "
"Yes."
She thought for a moment and said firmly, "Although it's not a dream or anything, I already have something I want to do in the future."
The girl's expression was rarely serious. She was so serious and solemn, as if she was afraid that Miss Huai Zhi wouldn't agree.
She was waiting for his approval.
Huai Shi was stunned for a long time. He couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her hair, "It's a good thing to have a goal, but can you tell me the specifics?"
"Ah, this is a secret … I feel like it'll be funny if I tell you." Zhen Xi avoided his gaze and said embarrassedly, "When the day comes that I can do it, I'll tell Miss Huai Zhi."
Huai Shi laughed, "Then you'll have to do your best."
"Yes."
Zhen Xi nodded vigorously and also laughed, suggesting, "Miss Huai Zhi, I'll cook porridge tonight. We can also fry some spring fish."
"Okay."
"After eating, let's go to the hot spring together."
"No."
"Eh? Let's go! "
"No, I have rabies. I'm afraid of water."
"Sauna is fine too!"
"I'm afraid of heat. No!"
…
As they chatted, they slowly made their way back to where they were supposed to go.
When Zhen Xi raised her head, she could see Miss Huai Zhi's back in front of her.
Her slender figure was bathed in the afternoon sun, as if the sun was gradually overlapping.
It was sparkling.
Just looking at it was enough to make people feel at ease.
Even if they walked into the darkness, they could feel the warmth that made people yearn for moving on the earth.
As long as they saw it once, they wouldn't despair in anxiety and hesitation.
No matter how long the dark valley was.
That was the most precious thing in the world. Compared to it, the position of the head of the family and the beautiful life on TV were not even worth mentioning.
"I want to be like Miss Huai Zhi …"
Zhen Xi whispered softly. She buried this wish deep in her heart, which she would never tell her, and stepped forward to catch up.
