27, wake up those who pretend to be asleep(1/2)

The sweet cream is delicate and soft, with a rich milky aroma. It melts on the tip of the tongue as soon as you put it in your mouth. The sponge cake as the base is fluffy and soft, with a full egg flavor. Coupled with fresh, delicious and juicy fruits, one bite will make you feel happy.

.

Among the Uchiha clan, nine out of ten are sweethearts, and Izumi is also a member of the sweethearts.

Therefore, when Quan ate cream cake for the first time in modern society, he was immediately captured by this wonderful taste.

There was no pretense, no calculation, just simple taste satisfaction, and a blush appeared on his face.

Quan was born white, and a faint crimson color dyed his cheeks, like the magnificent and dreamy morning glow reflected on the crystal white snow, incredibly beautiful.

"..."

The shopkeeper who brought the drinks to the two of them was surprised.

"Um?"

Alice raised her head and was keenly aware of the shopkeeper's momentary pause.

Her eyes glanced back and forth between Quan and the shopkeeper, and a crisis suddenly arose.

Can not be done.

Regardless of whether this cabbage is good or bad, it belongs to Yuan Zhongya in their family, and she has to show it to others.

Thinking like this, Alice took the fork in her hand, tapped the cake plate, and yelled like a naughty child: "Ino, Ino, where's my drink!"

"Ah, yes - here it comes." Ino suddenly came back to his senses after hearing the call, put down the drink on the tray, "Please use it."

When handing the drink to Quan, he asked: "Does it taste good?"

"Yeah! It's delicious!" Quan nodded vigorously, his eyes were like stars sprinkled on the night sky, shining brightly, especially beautiful, "Mr. Ino's craftsmanship is superb, this is the first time I have eaten such a delicious cake!"

"Really?" After receiving such unstinting praise, the corners of Ino's mouth unconsciously raised, her smile was bright, and she seemed to be in a very good mood.

"It's true!" Quan looked up at him with admiration in his eyes, "The cream is sweet but not greasy, and the cake is so soft that it seems like there is a cloud on the tip of your tongue. The fruit is also sweet and sour as a decoration, which enriches the taste.

It won’t overwhelm the guest. After eating the cake, I feel light and my mood has improved! Ino-san is really amazing!”

"Ah haha, not really..." Ino scratched her cheek, feeling a little embarrassed by the compliment.

"...?"

Alice looked around and suddenly asked herself: Shouldn't I bring this guy to the cake shop?

Although it is good to develop a friend who also loves desserts, but if she accidentally gives an assist to someone else, how can she explain it to Zhongyuan Zhongya, who treats her well!

Alice poked the cake on her plate with a fork, and was thinking about how to distract the two people's attention, when she suddenly felt a shock all over her body.

The two people next to her didn't notice anything unusual about her, and they continued chatting easily.

"Is Mr. Ino usually busy in the store alone?"

"My sister was originally helping me, but she had something to do today, so I was the only one in the store."

"So this is ah."

"But to be honest, this is a busy city, and my sister and I are a little busy at ordinary times. So recently I have been thinking about hiring temporary workers to help greet guests, clean tables and so on."

Quan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Temporary workers!

It just so happened that he was still thinking about where to find a part-time job next, so here he is!

Quan was about to recommend himself when he suddenly heard a crisp "ding-dong" sound coming from beside him.

It was the clink of a fork falling on a plate.

Izumi and Ino, who were chatting happily, stopped and looked at Alice next to them. The latter looked straight through the glass window of the store, staring at the shopping mall across the door without blinking.

"What's the matter, little sister?"

As soon as Quan asked the question, Alice jumped down from the chair and pulled him hard: "Sister! I seemed to have seen Rintaro just now!"

"Eh, eh?" Quan, who didn't react at all, was staggered by her. Before he could say goodbye to Ino, he stumbled out of the cake shop.

He knew clearly that what was waiting for him was probably a trap, but he had to jump.

Quan sighed in his heart, but did not forget to say in a panic: "Little sister, please slow down..."

Ino glanced at their hurriedly leaving figures, then at the unfinished cake on the table, scratched her cheek and muttered: "Do you want to wrap it up for them..."

Alice and Izumi entered the mall gate one after another.

There was a dense crowd in the lobby on the first floor. Naturally, they couldn't run around carelessly like they did on the road before. It just gave Quan time to stop and take a breath.

He held on to the load-bearing pillar in the hall, and while holding his ribs that hurt from the breath, he gasped and said: "Little sister, come on, can you tell me first before running away next time?"

There was no response from the side.

Quan took a deep breath and looked up, and found that Alice had disappeared at some point.

"Little sister?" Quan looked around, but didn't find the figure with blond hair and red dress, "Strange..."

Quan turned around in a circle, and suddenly caught a glimpse of brilliant gold from the corner of his eye.

He subconsciously looked over and saw that Alice was jumping to the second floor and had already climbed the last few steps.

"Little sister...Alice!" The two were far apart, so Quan called her name loudly. But Alice didn't seem to hear her at all, and kept walking forward without looking back.

Helpless, Quan was worried that the child was lost, and was about to chase after him, but unexpectedly, a boy with brown hair and brown eyes next to him suddenly called out to him.

"Please wait!"

The other party walked over quickly and looked at me seriously.

"?!" Quan was so frightened that he immediately took a step back, "Please, may I ask...what's the matter?"

Not long before this.

Hanizuka Yasumu who lost the prisoner contacted the driver who called the police.

The driver told him that something unexpected happened on the road where the police came. A group of armed gangsters violently robbed the prisoners who were being detained on their way to the prison. There was a shootout at the scene, and even hostages were kidnapped, so the police temporarily

We can't get here.

"I see."

So now I can only think of a solution on my own...

After hanging up the phone, Hanizuka Yasumu began to think about it, how about he change the method and directly look at the target targeted by the prisoner?

As soon as he had this idea, he turned around and saw Quan spinning around in circles, seemingly looking for someone.

Hanizuka Yasumi noticed that the little blond girl was not with him, he was just alone. Thinking about the murderer's method of murder, it was obvious that being alone was not a good thing for him.

So, he stepped forward directly and informed the other party about the fugitive murderer.

"Eh?! You mean, kill..."

"Shhh!!!"

Quan immediately covered his mouth, but his eyes still revealed his panic and uneasiness.

Hanizuka Yasumu pushed up his glasses and reassured, "It's okay. Just don't leave my sight until the police arrive."

Hearing this, Quan looked embarrassed. He glanced at the second floor and said hesitantly: "Thank you. But... I still need to find someone."

Hanizuka Yasumu nodded in understanding: "Is that the little girl with blond hair?"

"Yes."

"There is nothing we can do. Let me go with you."

"Eh? Isn't it too troublesome for you?"

"It's okay. If a murder really happened, it would be a big trouble."

Quan was greatly moved and said sincerely: "You are such a good person!"

"...cough." Hanizuka Yasumu's hand sliding up his glasses suddenly slipped, almost poking his own eye.

The feeling of receiving a good person card is a little subtle for some reason...

The two walked up the stairs together.

At this time, there is a rest area on the first floor.

A man with a newspaper covering his face took out a walkie-talkie from his inner pocket and whispered a report: "A strange boy is approaching the target, and the two are now heading to the second floor together."

"learn."

On the way to find Alice, Izumi and Hanizuka Yasumu exchanged names and chatted about other things.

"What?" After listening to what Izumi said, Hanizuka Yasumu frowned unconsciously and even stopped in his steps, "You said you and that little girl didn't know each other before?"

"Well, Alice said she was lost with the adults, so she asked me to help find her."

Hanizuka Yasumu's expression became very serious, and he had a guess in his mind: "Could it be that... that little girl is actually a bait? He will lead you to a deserted place, and then the prisoner will attack you again."

"In this case, I don't think so." Izumi said with a smile, "Yasumu-kun said it before, right? The prisoner just recently fled from Tokyo, but Alice is from Yokohama, so she should have no intersection with him.

. Because the owner of the cake shop that Alice took me to just now, Mr. Ino, said that she is a regular customer there, and he also knows the adults of Alice’s family, a Mr. Mori.”
