Have You Confessed Your Love Today? Chapter 7

Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Staying Overnight

On a cloudless night in winter, a clear night after snow, the white and thin moonlight complements the snow.

The silver moonlight shone into the window, and the heavy curtains blocked most of the light. Only a few rays of moonlight luckily slipped into the house and climbed onto the bed.

The man on the bed had a handsome face, but his brows were furrowed and his breathing was somewhat rapid.

‘brother’

A young man’s voice called softly: “Brother.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming opened his eyes and stared blankly at the man in front of him: “Jing Guang.”

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at him with concern: “Brother, are your injuries healed?”

Zhu Fu Gaoming looked at the person in front of him carefully: “It’s ready. Jingguang, where are you? Are you home?”

“Yes, I heard something happened to you and came back to see you.” Zhu Fu Jingguang gave a positive answer.

Zhu Fu Gaoming looked around at home.There were no lights on in the house, all the furniture was in place, and the wind outside the curtains sent moonlight into the house, allowing them to see each other’s presence clearly.

Zhufu Gaoming asked: “Jingguang, why don’t you turn on the light?”

“I’m still in suspended animation. I can’t let anyone discover that I’m still alive.” Zhu Fu Jingguang said, “I came here secretly to see you, and I’m leaving soon.”

He earnestly warned: “Brother, you have to take care of yourself. I may not come back for a long time.”

“Jing Guang…” Zhu Fu Gaoming closed his eyes.This time the other party’s statement seemed more reasonable than the hallucination he saw under the ice lake.

but.

“Jingguang.” Zhu Fu Gaoming swallowed the bitterness in his throat and smiled, “My brother has a friend who came to visit me at home today.”

“Brother’s friend?” Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at him with blue eyes that were very similar to Zhu Fu Gaoming’s own.

“Yes, he is my brother’s college friend.” Zhu Fu Gaoming’s eyes were clear and he carefully described Zhu Fu Jingguang’s figure, “Wise and enlightened, do you still remember?”

A sudden knock on the door broke the dream of self-deception, and Zhu Fu Gaoming opened his eyes.

“…Wait a moment.” Zhu Fu Gaoming blinked, sat up from the bed, put on the slippers beside the bed, walked to the door and opened the door.

He looked at the slender figure standing outside the door: “Jianwu?”

Akechi Kenwu looked at the cold sweat on his forehead: “Are you having a nightmare?”

“No,” Zhu Fu Gaoming’s forehead was still covered with glistening sweat, but there was a faint smile on his lips, “It’s not a nightmare.”

“So it seems like it was a sweet dream?” Mingzhi Jianyu raised his eyebrows, his voice slightly cold, “It seems like I shouldn’t wake you up.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming shook his head: “You have to wake up from dreams. Were you woken up by me?”

What Akechi Kengo hates most is being woken up in the middle of his sleep.When he was in college, his venom would rise two levels if he was woken up.

“I’ll come out and drink a glass of water.” Mingzhi Jianwu pinched the bridge of his nose and turned to leave, “You can continue to sleep.”

“No need.” Zhu Fu Gaoming felt that he couldn’t sleep for a while.He walked out of the bedroom and closed the door: “I’ll drink a glass of water too.”

“You go and wash your face first.” Mingzhi Jianyu said politely.

Zhu Fu Gaoming touched the sweat on his forehead and walked into the bathroom embarrassedly.

Akechi Kengo went to the living room.

The lights were turned on, and the living room was as bright as day.Zhu Fu Gaoming went to the open kitchen to boil water and make tea. He stood in front of the kettle and looked at the white mist rising.

Mingzhi Jianwu looked at Zhufu Gaoming, who was still a little dazed, and asked: “Gaoming, do you have midnight snack?”

“Is this the time?” Zhu Fu Gaoming glanced at the clock unexpectedly, “You can have breakfast in two hours.”

Mingzhi Jianwu asked nonchalantly: “Then do you want to eat?”

Zhufu Gaoming said: “There should be ingredients in the refrigerator.”

“Is a sandwich okay? This one is simpler.” Mingzhi Jianyu opened the refrigerator and glanced at the simple ingredients inside.

“I’ll do it.” Zhu Fu Gaoming looked back at him, “It would be rude to let the guests take action.”

Mingzhi Jianwu said: “The same goes for letting the patient do it.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming said helplessly: “I’m fine.”

“Your doctors and nurses don’t think so.” Akechi found bread slices, tomatoes, cucumbers, ham and eggs from the refrigerator, “There’s no lettuce…”

“There are noodles in the cabinet.” Zhu Fu Gaoming found a pack of noodles from the cabinet.

“Do you like red sauce?” Mingzhi Jian glanced at the pasta style clearly and continued to search in the refrigerator, “Is there any minced meat that has been defrosted in advance?”

Zhu Fu Gaoming took out a crisper from the refrigerator, which contained the tomato meat sauce that he had made before.

Mingzhi Jianwu looked at the crisper for a few seconds, then moved his eyes upward to Zhufu Gaoming, and said disapprovingly: “Frozen tomato meat sauce will lose its umami flavor.”

“This is more convenient.” Zhufu Gaoming said, “When I packed the box, I poured a layer of olive oil on it to block the air.”

Akechi looked at the box critically: “Is there any black pepper and shredded cheese?”

“Yes.” Zhu Fu Gaoming found two ingredients.

Two people stood in the kitchen in the early morning and started working.

Zhu Fu Gaoming poured a cup of black tea for both of them.Wise Wisdom defrosts the tomato meat sauce in water and adds freshly cracked black pepper and grated cheese when heating.

After a while, the aroma of tomato meat sauce spread in the room instead of the smell of black tea.

After Zhufu Gaoming made the tea, he went to wash up. He came back and took the place of Ming Zhijian and asked him to wash up.

The two of them had already agreed that this would be breakfast after waking up. By the time the pasta was ready, it was already four in the morning. It was better to go to bed early at night than to fall asleep again at this time. Anyway, they had to stay up late during the New Year and it was not too late to get jet-lagged after the New Year.

“I’m starting.” The two of them each had a plate of tomato meat sauce pasta, with a cup of black tea on hand.

Mingzhi Jianwu wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and commented: “Gao Ming, your skills have deteriorated.”

“It’s easier to eat lunch when I’m busy than to make it myself. My skills are rusty.” Zhu Fu Gaoming said, “I make sandwiches at noon. It’s Jingguang’s recipe and it’s delicious.”

“Jingguang? Your brother.” Mingzhi Jianwu asked, “Any news about him?”

Zhu Fu Gaoming sighed deeply, his expression reflected on the white porcelain plate.

He said heavily: “Yes, I received…his message.”

Akechi Kengo was silent for a moment, looked out the window, and changed the subject: “We can see the sunrise in Nagano after a while, right?”

“The sunrise time in Nagano is around half past six…” Morofuku Takaaki had a flash of inspiration and said to Kengo Akechi, “You can watch the sunrise and Mount Fuji at the same time on the Lake Suwa cruise.”

Mingzhi Jianwu asked with interest: “How far is it?”

Zhu Fu Gaoming said: “It won’t take more than an hour and a half to drive.”

The wise and wise man said vigorously and resolutely: “I will drive.”

“I’m going to prepare sandwiches for lunch.” Zhufu Gaoming stood up from the table.

Akechi Kengo stopped him and cleared the table himself, “Leave it to me here.” He said cheerfully, “Although the pairing of tomato pasta and black tea is a bit unorthodox, not drinking in the morning is still the right choice.”

“The combination of fruity black tea and tomato meat sauce pasta is not that bad.” Zhufu Gaoming commented, “As for drinks…”

“Black tea is fine.” Mingzhi Jianwu said, “You don’t have any special medical advice, right?”

“No, please don’t treat me like fragile glass.” Zhu Fu Gaoming said helplessly.

Akechi Kanwu said: “If that were the case, I would travel alone today.”

The two of them performed their duties and quickly prepared the supplies for the trip.Zhufugu Gaoming said: “It’s better for me to drive. You are not familiar with the roads in Nagano.”

“You can sit in the passenger seat and show me the way.” Mingzhi Jianwu said, reaching out and asking Zhufu Gaoming for the car keys.

The two looked at each other for a long time, Zhufu Gaoming sighed and handed the car keys to Mingzhi Jianwu.

Zhufu Gaoming sat in the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt, looked sideways at the person in the driver’s seat, and said jokingly: “If others see my boss driving for me, will it affect the wise police?”

Akechi Kenwu stepped on the accelerator: “Then don’t let them see it. And strictly speaking, I’m not your boss.”

Although the Metropolitan Police Department and the Nagano Police Headquarters are in the same police system, they have different jurisdictions. According to the rules, Akechi Kengo cannot give orders to the Nagano Prefectural Police unless it is joint law enforcement.

Zhu Fu Gaoming teased: “My former boss has become your current subordinate.”

“Oh?” Zhizhi Jianwu glanced at Zhu Fu Gaoming.

Zhufu Gaoming said: “Section Chief Kuroda was transferred to the management officer of the 1st Investigation Section of the Metropolitan Police Department a few days ago.”

“Is that so?” Mingzhi Jianwu asked casually, “It seems that he is a person with sufficient ability?”

Zhufu Gaoming nodded.

Being wise and enlightened, he didn’t ask any more questions.He prefers to see with his own eyes what his future subordinates will look like.

An hour and a half passed quickly in chatting.Two people who are also police officers don’t need to deliberately find topics. They have enough cases to share with each other.

Some cases seem to be taken too seriously when written in letters. The carrying capacity of letters is limited, so there is no need to share cases.

The time is right now.Interesting cases can be used as reasoning puzzles, and weird cases can be used to complain about together.

Cases that require confidentiality cannot be mentioned. Zhufu Gaoming is sharing the case of Kaitou Kidd and Fairy Lips with Akechi Kengo.

After all, the Kidd case is unique among various homicide cases in Nagano, with its unique romantic atmosphere and interest.

“Magician…” Akechi Kenwu frowned slightly as if he remembered something troublesome.

Zhufu Gaoming looked at him and said doubtfully, “I remember you also like magic.”

“Yes.” Akechi Kenwu sighed, “It’s just that the criminal I met last time who committed a crime using magic was very troublesome.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming said: “I remember you mentioned a criminal with a high IQ.”

Akechi Kenwu said coldly: “‘Hell Puppet Master’ Gao Yuanyi.”

Zhufu Gaoming realized something from his words and asked in surprise: “Hasn’t he been arrested and brought to justice until now?”

He remembered that Mingzhi Kenwu had mentioned in his letter that he had encountered a troublesome enemy, that he was good at using magic means to commit crimes, and that he had mastered the skills of instigating crimes… Of course, this information was not said by Mingzhi Kenwu at once, but was pieced together by Zhufu Gaoming himself from several letters written at different times.

“No, he is in prison. He just doesn’t know when he will escape from prison again.” Akechi Jianwu was rarely troubled, “Occasionally I feel that the existence of the ‘death penalty’ is necessary.”

Zhu Fu Gaoming consoled him: “If you rarely come out to play, don’t think about the case.”

“Generally speaking, this seems to be what I advise others to do.” Akechi laughed.His mood adjusted quickly as the red Citroën galloped under the night: “Are we almost there?”

“We’ll be there soon.” Zhufu Gaoming directed Mingzhi Jianwu to get off the highway, drive into the parking lot, and buy a ticket himself.

This time, Zhufu Gaoming refused to give in. “Jianwu should also let me fulfill my friendship as a landlord.”

Akechi is carrying a picnic basket in his hand and wearing a cashmere coat. No one would think that he is a policeman.

Zhufu Gaoming bought the ticket and came back to board the ship with Mingzhi Jianwu.

The Suwa Lake cruise is a well-known local tourism project, but on this day everyone is preparing for the New Year, and few people get up early in the morning just to come to the lake to watch the sunrise.

Because of this, I also bought two good seats when buying tickets at Zhufu Gaoming Card Point.
