Chapter 51 A Patch Of Orange
Li Xia didn't go home, but instead took a taxi to the apartment building where his aunt Asakawa Aki lived. When he first arrived in Tokyo, he had stayed here for two months and was very familiar with the surroundings.
After receiving information from Kirigiri Shimizu, the images of his aunt and Mori Mari lingered in his mind. Although Kirigiri Shimizu had promised to help investigate tomorrow, he couldn't resist coming here on his own.
But when he actually stood downstairs, he hesitated. he didn't know what reason he should use to see his aunt.
While he was hesitating, a cold voice sounded from behind him.
"Hey, why are you standing there?" Asakawa Aki, wearing high heels, carried a plastic bag in one hand and had a meaningful smile on her face.
"I..." Li Xia's expression froze. He didn't expect his aunt to come back from outside. He hadn't thought of a reason yet, and felt a bit awkward for a moment.
"Don't just stand there, help me with the bag." Asakawa Aki walked over and stuffed all the plastic bags into his hands, smiling as she walked ahead. "Let's go inside."
"Alright." Li Xia chuckled along, not needing any reason to go home since his aunt had already given him permission.
The two of them arrived in front of the apartment, and Li Xia reached out his hand to place it on the fingerprint lock. With a click, the door lock opened.
"Don't block the door." Asakawa Aki walked in from behind him, kicking off her black high heels as they slid off her stockings and casually landed in the entrance.
"Hey, some things never change." Li Xia shook his head and casually put her high heels back in the shoe cabinet.
Carrying a plastic bag, they entered the room. Just as they entered the living room, they saw that it was already filled with a pile of garbage bags and various empty wine bottles.
Asakawa Aki didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. She kicked aside the garbage bags with her foot, sat down next to the coffee table, and took the drinks and snacks out of the plastic bag that Li Xia handed to her, placing them on the coffee table.
"I'll make some hot dishes for you." Li Xia shook his head. He knew there was a convenience store downstairs where he could buy some ingredients, even at night.
He had been living here for two months and went to the convenience store almost every day. He was already familiar with the people there. As he picked up several large bags of garbage from the floor, he took them downstairs.
"Love you~" Asakawa Aki blew a kiss to him and just watched TV.
Li Xia sighed, after all, reality is different from novels. It is impossible for someone to have a perfect personality, a superior family background, and be devoted to the male protagonist. At least the women around him have their own personalities.
He had been busy for almost two hours before cleaning up the room and making two cold dishes and placing them on the coffee table.
"Hehe, it tastes delicious." Asakawa Aki took a swig, exhaled a breath of alcohol, and put the wine glass on the coffee table: "Sure enough, drinking at home is the most enjoyable."
"Hey, drink less." Li Xia held the wine glass in his hand and poured her another half glass.
"What a pity. It would be nice if you could drink with me." Asakawa Aki blinked at him, with a hint of drunkenness on her face.
"Then we get drunk and go crazy together?" Li Xia shook his head. His aunt is really not good at drinking. It's normal for her to take off her clothes and go crazy.
"Tch, little brat." Asakawa Aki said with contempt: "Don't think I don't know why you want to move out and live alone. "
"Is that so? What's the reason?" Li Xia propped his chin up, curious about how he was perceived by his aunt.
"Oh, it's just something boys do," Asakawa Aki replied with a knowing look. "Like not having any privacy when you want to have some alone time."
"Hey, stop teasing!" Li Xia reached out to cover her mouth, but Asakawa Aki agilely dodged his hand.
The two of them playfully roughhoused for a while, as if they had returned to their childhood. After the playfulness subsided, they chatted about various topics.
Li Xia yawned as he rested his head on the coffee table, only to discover that Asakawa Aki had already fallen asleep on the table.
Asakawa Aki had taken off her uniform halfway due to feeling hot. Her upper body was now clad in a white shirt with the buttons undone down to her chest.
Li Xia blushed and pushed her shoulder, saying, "It's better to have this style." He continued, "Aunt, wake up. You'll catch a cold sleeping here."
Asakawa Aki's body was pushed and swayed by her. She opened her eyes, still a bit groggy, and suddenly revealed a radiant smile. "Hehe, I guess I'm a qualified elder, huh?"
"Yes, Aki auntie is a qualified elder," Li Xia knew she was talking nonsense.
"Don't lie!" Asakawa Aki pouted. "Clearly, I've been trying hard to be a good elder, but you still want to move out. You're obviously just despising me."
"Well..." Li Xia was about to respond, but he saw that Asakawa Aki had already closed her eyes tightly and softly collapsed.
"This person acts like they don't care at all," Li Xia shook his head, reached out and held her in a princess carry position. "But do they actually care deep down?"
Li Xia threw Asakawa Aki into her room, covered her with a blanket, and then left.
This apartment is a single room. When he lived here, he slept on the floor, but now he can only sleep on the same bed as her. He can't handle it.
Li Xia returned to his own home in the early morning. He quietly opened the door and found his senior with a pillow between her legs, occasionally rubbing against it. She was sleeping soundly, with a steady snoring sound coming from her mouth.
"Turns out even beautiful girls can snore." Li Xia shook his head and opened the blanket, sleeping on the floor.
The next day came quickly.
Komachi Akane, the handywoman, was very efficient. When Li Xia finished his morning classes, she already delivered a detailed report.
"Yawn..." Komachi Akane, with dark circles under her eyes, yawned and covered her mouth with one hand. Her OL uniform was slightly wrinkled, clearly indicating that she had been working overtime all night.
She handed a file folder to Li Xia. "This is the most detailed information we could find without alerting the parties involved."
"Thank you," Li Xia said, reaching out to take it. After experiencing yesterday's kidnapping incident, he knew that this seemingly cute OL girl was actually a dangerous individual who acted ruthlessly.
"These are mainly performance evaluation records for her work," explained Komachi Akane. "When Asakawa Aki first arrived in Tokyo, her classmates and teachers described her as aloof and not good with words. This could be due to her long stay in Yan Nation."
"Hmm." Li Xia nodded and pulled out the documents to examine them. His aunt came to Tokyo to pursue her graduate studies and decided to stay there. Even though she was very gentle and reliable in Li Xia's memory, it was normal for her to appear aloof in a completely unfamiliar environment.
"And there's this." Komachi Akane handed over another document. "Mori Mari from the Mori conglomerate, also a graduate of Tokyo University, is her senior."
"..." Li Xia's mouth twitched, feeling a wave of frustration. The sight before him seemed to be tinged with orange.
