The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

The next day, at Yangchuan Ramen shop.

"Hey, brat, hey--"

The store manager pushed someone who was sitting at the counter, holding his chin with one hand while looking up at the ceiling, and said angrily: "I don't know if you won the lottery today or just got lucky, but you can

I can't trouble you to put away that idiotic smile on your face, your mouth is watering. Do you know that since you sat down here, there has been no customer in my store?

You kid scared them all away——"

"Ahem!"

Baiyunshan coughed twice and quickly wiped the corners of his mouth, only to find that there was no saliva at all. Only then did he realize that he had been fooled again and couldn't help but curl his lips.

"Why, something good happened? Aren't you busy filming all day recently? Why are you free to come and sit here now?"

The store manager took a glass of water, moved a chair and sat down next to him, looking at him sideways.

"That was all two days ago. Store manager, your news is too late."

Baiyunshan explained helplessly.

"Huh, blame me? Apart from you, I can only get a little bit of information about these things from that kid from Hashimoto. How did I know that you had already finished filming?"

The store manager said impatiently: "If you have something to say, say it quickly. I still have to do business. Don't mess around with me--"

"Okay, okay, I'll just tell you."

Baiyunshan could only cough awkwardly, rubbed his nose and said: "Actually, it's nothing serious. I just want to inform you that during the New Year in a few days, I may not be able to come to your place to spend it like I did in previous years-"

The store manager looked stunned when he heard this and said, "You're not coming? Is there something wrong?"

"almost."

Baiyunshan nodded: "I'm not sure in any case. I just gave you a notice in advance. Maybe I might change my mind. And -"

Having said this, Baiyunshan showed a rare hesitation on his face, then showed a hint of shyness, and whispered: "Also, besides this, there is actually one more thing I want to ask you -"

"What's up?"

The store manager drank water with a calm expression.

"I would like to ask, what should I pay attention to when dating a girl for the first time?"

Baiyunshan asked for advice with a sincere face.

"puff--"

The store manager almost spat out a mouthful of water. He coughed several times in a row, and someone quickly patted his back. Then he felt a lot relieved. After a while, he looked at him with wide eyes: "You

Ask me this?!"

Baiyunshan looked embarrassed, but he also had his own explanation: "Well... I mainly think that since you are married and have two children, you must have more experience in this area than me.

It’s too much—”

"Then have you ever thought about why I got divorced again..."

The store manager said quietly.

Baiyun Mountain: "..."

Then the store manager looked arrogant again, snorted proudly, and said: "And then again, back then, I was chased backwards, right?"

"..."

Baiyun Mountain was even more speechless.

"If I want to ask you, I'd better ask him -"

As he spoke, he pointed at the door. At this moment, a man with dark skin and a simple face walked in. Baiyunshan glanced at him and recognized it was Officer Sato, whom he had not seen for a long time.

"What do you want to ask me?"

As soon as Officer Sato entered the door, he saw the store manager pointing at him. Based on the words he heard before, it was not difficult to guess that this was obviously directed at him.

The store manager then explained the matter in a few words. Officer Sato suddenly opened his eyes wide, looked at someone and said in surprise: "You still have to ask me? There were three pretty girls there that day.

Follow you to the mall? Logically speaking, you should be more experienced in this kind of thing than us—"

The store manager's eyes widened when he heard this, as if he was going to get angry the next second. Baiyunshan quickly waved his hands and explained loudly: "That's not the case! Officer Sato, you misunderstood. I only appeared in the mall because of some accidents that day.

!As for the specific reason...well, it’s not convenient for me to say, just think of it as recording a show——"

"Oh, so that's it~"

Officer Sato nodded in realization.

The store manager also snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Baiyunshan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly wiped away cold sweat. Fortunately, he explained this matter in time. Otherwise, if the news spread, not to mention whether the agent could still do it, I was afraid that even no one would be able to do it——

"But then again, it's useless for you to ask me this."

After a while, Officer Sato spread his hands and said: "How do I know what you should pay attention to on a first date? I only know how to catch thieves and solve crimes. The affairs of men and women are not my responsibility-"

"But Officer Sato, aren't you also married?"

Baiyunshan scratched his head, then his face froze, he raised his eyebrows and said slowly with empty eyes: "...could it be that you were also chased from behind?"

"That's not true."

Officer Sato readily denied this speculation, raised his head, took a sip of beer, took a breath and said, "It's just that my wife and I are childhood sweethearts and grew up together. If you want to talk about dating...

We’ve been together for so long, and being a police officer is quite busy, so I really don’t have much of an impression——”

Baiyun Mountain: "..."

Seeing that neither of the two middle-aged men could give any useful advice, Baiyunshan simply gave up and was about to get up and leave. He would make better plans later.

Just then, the store manager pointed out a clear path.

"But if you want to ask about this matter, I think it's better to find a girl who is about the same age as your date——"

Baiyun Mountain suddenly lit up.

...

...

In the evening, I returned to my apartment in Wudongzaka. As soon as I got home to Baiyun Mountain, I couldn't wait to open "Monster Hunter".

As soon as I went online, I saw the familiar ID lighting up as expected.

So I decisively sent a message.

[Excuse me, if you were to date the boy you told me about before tomorrow, what would you want to do? 】

The light spot on the screen flashed, and it didn't take long for the question to be asked, and a reply came quickly.

[Wha, what? Brain-sang, why do you ask me this so suddenly...]

He rested lazily on the sofa, with this reply reflected in his pupils. Even though he was separated from the Internet, Baiyunshan could still feel the other person's shyness just by reading these few words.

If it were in the past, he might have simply changed the subject out of curiosity, but this time the matter was so important that even though he knew that the other party was shy, he had to continue to ask.

So I made up a random reason and went there.

[Mainly because I taught you so many things before, but they were of no use, so I thought, why don’t I just stop playing with the nonsense and just take the initiative to invite that person on a date? 】

【A date...?】

The girl on the other end seemed to have received a huge shock, and it took her a long time to hold back these words.

[Yes, yes~ As the saying goes, men chase women, there are mountains between them, and women chase men, there is a veil between them. If you take the initiative and just hit a straight ball, maybe it will be effective? Look, it has been so long.

Sorry, I haven’t heard any good news from you yet. It’s too slow to wait——】

Baiyunshan became more and more fluent as he spoke. He made up one reason after another, and in just three strokes, he was able to confuse the other party.

[Sang Naozuo, where did these common sayings come from...]

[Don’t worry about it. Anyway, just give it a try first. If it doesn’t work, let’s talk about it later.]

【But......】

[Where do so many things come from? I’m not asking you to ask the other person to go out with you right now. I’m just imagining it first. It’s okay~ Just think of it as preparing in advance. It’s better than if this day really comes. Instead,

You didn’t come up with any plans, okay?】

【Well, then okay...】

Seeing that the other party was finally convinced by him and tried to convey his idea bit by bit, the corners of Baiyunshan's mouth could not help but slowly curved in a satisfied arc.

Then his smile gradually faded, and his attention shifted to the message sent on the screen.

Ah, it’s strange. These hobbies and ideas always feel a bit familiar, as if I’ve seen them somewhere before...

Baiyunshan thought silently.
