"I'm sorry, Mrs. Xigu, for making you sad." Li Xuehao said quickly, took out his handkerchief and handed it over.

Eriko Hosotani's face showed a slight blush. After all, it was always a little embarrassing for a young person to see her true feelings. However, she did not accept the handkerchief Li Xuehao handed her, but took one out of the tissue box on the coffee table.

He wiped it with a tissue: "Thank you, I'm really sorry."

Li Xuehao didn't mind. He took back his handkerchief and diverted his attention: "By the way, where is Miss Xigu?"

"Do you know Chinatsu?" Hosotani Eriko was stunned. She was rubbing the balled up tissue in her hands, her eyes were slightly red, obviously because of the sadness just now.

"Oh, I don't know her yet. Mr. Hosaya once talked about his family situation, so I knew about it." At this point, I realized that I had said something that might make others sad, and immediately continued.

, "Actually, I have another purpose for coming today."

"Please tell me..." Eriko Hosotani said seriously.

"I am here to persuade Miss Hosoya to go back to school and continue her unfinished studies on behalf of Teacher Mizuhashi Ryoko." Li Xuehao raised the flag of Mizuhashi Ryoko, believing that it would be easier to gain people's trust this way. Because if you are here to express your gratitude, you must be grateful.

There is no reason to involve his daughter.

"Teacher Mizuhashi?" Eriko Hosotani was a little moved. She probably didn't expect that the young man in front of her knew her daughter's class teacher.

"Yes." Li Xuehao nodded.

"Ms. Mizuhashi has been here a few times before. I want to persuade Chinatsu to go back to school... I'm sorry, are you Mizuhashi-sensei?" Eriko Hosotani didn't doubt his identity, but she was a little confused about the people who had been helped by her husband.

Do you know your daughter’s class teacher again?

"She is my...sister." Li Xuehao said a little unnaturally, and let the woman take advantage first.

"Sister? Mr. Mizuhashi will have a lot less trouble if he has a sensible brother like you." Eriko Hosotani did not doubt his words at all, but praised him.

Li Xuehao felt a little embarrassed: "Where's Miss Xigu? Isn't she at home?"

"She went out to work." Speaking of her daughter, Eriko Hosotani had a helpless and heartbroken expression on her face.

"Working?" Li Xuehao was stunned.

"Yes, I can't persuade her to go back to school." Eriko Hosotani's face was full of helplessness.

"Do you know where she works?" Li Xuehao asked again.

"Well, I heard her say that it's at the Shimono store not far away." Eriko Hosotani was also looking forward to her daughter going back to school to complete her studies. Seeing that the young man asked so clearly, she obviously wanted to go to Chinatsu for persuasion.

, she and Teacher Mizuhashi have already tried to persuade her, but to no avail. Maybe the persuasion of the young man in front of her will have an effect.

"Shimono store, right? Then I understand."

Seeing that Li Xuehao seemed to be planning to leave, Eriko Hosotani was suddenly startled. Then she realized that there was a devil in the house. If this young man left like this, then she would be in danger.

"Manaka-kun, right? It's already very late now. I think Chinatsu will be back soon. Why don't you wait for her here and have dinner here by the way?"

"In this way..." Of course Li Xuehao had no intention of leaving just like that. He knew that besides him there was another guy in the house. That guy was too dangerous to Eriko Hosotani. If he hadn't driven him away

He won't be relieved either.

The reason for the hesitant expression was just pretending.

"By the way, is that the bathroom there? Can I borrow it?" As he said that, before Hosotani Eriko could react, Li Xuehao had already walked towards the room where Section Chief Kakihara was hiding.

"Wait a minute..." Eriko Hosotani remembered it too late, because Li Xuehao's hand had already touched the doorknob and started to turn it.

"Hey, is it locked?" Li Xuehao pretended to be surprised. In fact, he also knew that the guilty Section Chief Kakihara would not dare to leave the door unlocked.

"This..." Erico Hosotani had already walked to him, at a loss. Her face was full of anxious expressions. If the boy in front of her knew that there was a man inside, she really couldn't imagine the kind of shame that would make people want to die.

as a result of.

"I'm sorry, there's already someone inside." At the critical moment, Section Chief Kakihara's voice came out. I guess he was also a bit quick-witted. Rather than being discovered, it would be better to speak out proactively. That way he would appear more upright and would not be blocked by others.

Being secretive makes people suspicious.

"Is there anyone here?" Li Xuehao pretended to be surprised, and then there was the sound of flushing water inside, and then the door was opened, and a middle-aged man about fifty years old came out.

The middle-aged man is about 1.7 meters tall. He is pretty decent-looking. His facial features do not give off the impression of a bad guy. He seems to be a very kind person. However, after listening to his previous conversation with Eriko Hosotani, Li Xuehao knew that

This guy is just a beast.

The information fed back from his facial appearance also confirmed that this guy was only deceptive on the outside, but in fact he was extremely dark inside and had done many shady things.

"Who are you?" Section Chief Kakihara also pretended to be a little surprised when he saw Li Xuehao.

"Manaka-kun is the younger brother of Teacher Chinatsu, and he came here specifically to persuade Chinatsu to return to school." Eriko Hosotani, who had regained her composure after a thrilling battle between humans and gods, hurriedly introduced.

"It turns out he is Teacher Chinatsu-chan's brother. Hello, I am Kakihara Takaya from Sunagawa Trading Company. Because I am a colleague of Mrs. Hosaya's husband, I came here to visit." Section Chief Kakihara knows how to act. If you don't know

Those who know the inside story will definitely be deceived by his superb acting skills.

Li Xuehao smiled coldly in his heart. When he reached out his hand, he knew that this man was calm on the surface, but actually he was starting to feel guilty. If not, facing a high school student like him, he would not take the initiative to shake hands with him. Japan's junior and senior system

But very harsh people, those who already have jobs or even the position of section chief, look down on those little brats who are still hanging out in high school. Even college students are not looked down upon by them.

Of course, since the other party wanted to show "friendship" to him, how could Li Xuehao disagree and reach out to shake his hand?

Kakihara Takaya instantly felt the huge power coming from his hand. His face suddenly changed, and then he showed a look of pain. It felt like his palm was not held by a human hand, but like it was clamped by some machine.

Squeeze it hard, as if the bones inside are being crushed.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Hosotani, can I talk to Mr. Kakihara alone?" Li Xuehao blocked Eriko Hosotani's gaze so that she could not see Kakihara Takaya's expression. He has the height advantage to do this.

.

However, his behavior was very rude. After all, he was in someone else's home. Even though Eriko Hosotani didn't understand why the young man in front of her wanted to talk to Section Chief Kakihara alone, and Section Chief Kakihara didn't object, she still understood the location.

He nodded and bowed to leave: "Then, I won't disturb you anymore." (To be continued.)
