Chapter 104

~7 min read 1,217 words

"Call me 'Ryou' from now on. 'Ryou-san' is too distant; it doesn't sound like a term of address between friends at all."

At the end of her words, Fujibayashi Ryou suddenly changed her tone. The invitation was so hard to say, so shameful.

Her face was burning hot at this moment.

"I'm worried that Fujibayashi-san will beat me to death if she hears it."

"Sister wouldn't do that!"

"I don't believe it."

"Really! Sister isn't that violent."

"You say that, but you have no confidence at all."

Fujibayashi Ryou wanted to cry. After all, her sister Fujibayashi Kyou was indeed a bit violent during her high school years.

"With me here, sister won't do anything to Lin-kun. Really, believe me. I, I will protect Lin-kun."

By the end of this sentence, she had used almost all of the girl's courage.

"With you protecting me, Ryou, I'm at ease."

Surprise surged in her heart like a fountain. Fujibayashi Ryou couldn't stop the joyful emotion on her red lips and corners of her mouth. That charming smile caused the entire room to be filled with a cherry-blossom-colored atmosphere.

"Mm, also, also... do you have time on the weekend?"

Striking while the iron was hot, Fujibayashi Ryou went all out.

The girl's voice was very soft, and her tone trembled with shame.

She was nervous and embarrassed.

Lin Ye could hear it.

It was just a pity! It was rare for a girl to invite him out to play on the weekend; it could be said to be the first time in his life! But he had plans.

"Sorry, Ryou, I have things to do this weekend."

*Is it a date with Ren?*

Fujibayashi Ryou's expectant expression immediately turned into disappointment and dejection, and her entire aura became much lower.

"Mm-mm, Lin-kun, go ahead and do your own things first."

"How about next weekend? I don't have any arrangements for next weekend yet. But Ryou, you just started as a nurse. I remember that nurses are on a shift system, and their rest time is not fixed."

"It's okay, I can adjust my shifts."

Fujibayashi Ryou said in one breath, fearing that Lin Ye wouldn't agree.

"Just follow your time! I'm quite free to take time off."

The short purple-haired girl felt a warmth in her heart. He was considering her; he was so gentle.

"Mm-mm, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"What is it?"

Fujibayashi Ryou told him about the chain car accident in Chiba yesterday.

In the situation where the car in front crashed, at least seven subsequent cars did not have any braking or deceleration, and they crashed into the car in front.

Lin Ye smelled the scent of the Supernatural.

If it wasn't a special event caused by the Supernatural, then it was highly likely that the people in the cars had been involved in a "Supernatural event" and died in it, leading to the "suicide" behavior.

"I understand. Don't go to the car accident scene, and be careful when contacting the injured. Put self-protection first. If you find that the personnel have problems, stay away and contact me immediately. By the way, tell Fujibayashi Kyou-san not to go either, and try to avoid that place."

It wasn't that Lin Ye hadn't thought about letting Fujibayashi Ryou stay away from Chiba Municipal Hospital, but considering the actual situation, he gave up on this suggestion.

First, whether the chain car accident had anything to do with the Supernatural; second, whether the casualties of the car accident could attract the Supernatural; and third, similar events would only increase in the future. He couldn't let Fujibayashi Ryou stay away every time.

As long as Fujibayashi Ryou was still prepared to continue working as a nurse at the hospital, she would inevitably have to contact the injured.

"Mm, I will pay attention. Once there is danger, I will definitely contact Lin-kun immediately."

The two chatted for a while longer and ended the call.

Fujibayashi Ryou, sitting on the bed, waved her fist.

"Great."

No time this weekend, but there was time next weekend.

What clothes should she wear for the date?

"No, no, no, it's not a date."

Fujibayashi Ryou shook her head hard with a blushing face.

"Who are you dating?"

"Eh!"

At this moment, Fujibayashi Ryou realized that her sister was standing at the door of the room, wearing a white apron and holding a spatula.

"Sister..."

"That guy wants to date you?"

"No, no, really no, sister."

Fujibayashi Ryou explained hurriedly.

But this anxious explanation only made Fujibayashi Kyou confirm her guess.

"Dinner is ready."

After dropping this sentence, Fujibayashi Kyou turned and walked toward the kitchen. She knew that there was no point in forcing an interrogation for now; her sister was soft and weak on the outside, but unexpectedly stubborn about some things.

She had to start from Lin Ye's side.

"Want to date my sister? In your dreams?"

*Clang, clang...*

Fujibayashi Kyou used the spatula to stir-fry the dishes in the iron pot with all her might, as if she wanted to vent the resentment in her heart completely on the vegetables in the pot.

Fujibayashi Ryou, who came out to the dining room, was nervous when she heard this.

The sisters sat down one after another and started to eat.

At this moment,

Fujibayashi Ryou really hoped that her parents would come back sooner.

After ending the call with Fujibayashi Ryou, Lin Ye contacted Nanase Ren immediately.

But the call didn't go through, but in less than half a minute, his phone rang.

"Sorry, sorry, Lin-kun, I was eating just now and didn't notice the phone ringing."

The apologetic voice of Nanase Ren came from the other end of the phone.

"It's okay. How do you feel these two days? Is work tiring?"

"Tiring, but many of the injured have survived and will recover soon. My tiredness is nothing at all."

This sense of achievement and satisfaction made Nanase Ren feel that her work had meaning and value.

"Angel, Ren, you are a true angel."

"Lin-kun,"

Nanase Ren made a shy sound, but she was very happy.

"I want to ask about the chain car accident yesterday. Did you hear anything unusual?"

"Yes, I was planning to tell you after I finished eating."

Nanase Ren recalled and organized her language to start explaining.

Besides the cars not braking, Nanase Ren also mentioned one point.

"The wounds of several injured people are very special; they wouldn't be wounds caused by a car accident at all."

"Did official personnel come to the hospital?"

"Yes, wearing black suits, very formal clothes, but I don't know which department it is. Do you want me to tomorrow..."

"No, Ren-san, don't go asking around. Promise me, just do what you should do as a nurse at the hospital, and don't worry about anything else."

Nanase Ren also read the seriousness in Lin Ye's words.

"Mm, I'll listen to you. That... call me Ren from now on! 'Ren-san' doesn't sound like a term of address between friends at all."

*Did you and Fujibayashi Ryou make an appointment? Both of you want me to call you by your names today.*

"Aren't you worried about being misunderstood by those pursuers of yours?"

"There are no pursuers at all."
