Chapter 286 - 207: Both Siblings Are Tsundere

Chapter 286: Chapter 207: Both Siblings Are Tsundere

Seeing this scene, Minamoto Tamako felt a bit uncomfortable all over.

Director Moriki is indeed a bit perverted.

But on second thought, no one is perfect, and who doesn’t have a little hobby? Doesn’t she herself like foot massages? Maybe Director Moriki just likes eating milk-stained foam from people’s mouths? She felt that she should tolerate her best friend’s little flaws because good friends should be tolerant of each other!

Moriyama Yasurou wanted to continue chatting, preferably having Minamoto Tamako sit on her long legs. Unexpectedly, a patrol police officer called halfway through, saying that a drunkard was causing trouble at the front desk and asked her how to handle it.

Handle it? Why call her for such a thing, did they expect her to handle it herself?

Moriyama Yasurou scolded a few times, telling them to clean it up, to which the other party weakly responded with ’Really,’ which almost drove her mad.

Seeing this, Minamoto Tamako quickly got up to leave, not wanting her personal matters to delay Director Moriki’s daily work. Moriyama Yasurou tried to persuade her to stay, but seeing her determination, she called the waiter to settle the bill while reminding, "If you have any concerns, feel free to text me anytime."

"Eh?"

Minamoto Tamako was greatly moved, thinking that although Director Moriki was perverted, she was very gentle. She asked a bit anxiously, "Wouldn’t that be too much trouble? You must be very busy, right...?"

"Not at all."

Moriyama Yasurou reminded again, "No need to be so formal; you can call me Sister Moriki or Sister Yasurou."

Minamoto Tamako agreed to it, trying out, "Then... Sister Yasurou, I’ll take my leave now?" As soon as she said it, she felt a bit closer to Moriyama Yasurou.

The two said goodbye at the cafe entrance. Minamoto Tamako walked out with a spring in her step, her confused mood swept away. She went to the pet store to pick up her dog, Ajun, and returned home, bouncing along with it.

She had already thought it through. When the time came, she would observe Mr. Fu Jian’s daily behavior under the guise of a trip.

If Mr. Fu Jian turned out to be a "high-risk warning," she would then message Sister Yasurou to ask what to do next; if Mr. Fu Jian remained devoted to justice, then they would still be good partners, and nothing would have changed... Living together doesn’t necessarily mean they have to date!

Minamoto Tamako took Ajun upstairs and used her key to open the door when the apartment door next to hers creaked open. Shirakawa Miki peeked through the crack, startling her, and she quickly pulled Ajun inside.

"I-I’m back."

Minamoto Tamako kicked off her sneakers, put on her plush slippers, and peeked into the living room. The sound of the shower had stopped, and Fushimi Roku’s room door was tightly closed; she didn’t know what he was doing inside.

She unhooked the leash, and Ajun dashed off to munch on dog food. Amidst the crunching sounds, Minamoto Tamako half-lay on the sofa, pondering how to naturally propose the travel plan.

Oh, right, wasn’t it Sakurako who first mentioned wanting to go to Shizuoka Prefecture?

Minamoto Tamako remembered that and quickly headed to her room to ask Sakurako if she still wanted to go to Shizuoka Prefecture. The latter looked hesitant; if Tamako were to take her, many things would be inconvenient... After all, she was going to find her mother, and she obviously couldn’t let Tamako know about it.

"Why ask all of a sudden?" Taira Sakurako asked in return.

Minamoto Tamako was at a loss for words; traveling to gauge Mr. Fu Jian’s feelings was something she couldn’t possibly say aloud. She stammered, making an excuse, saying it’s because they missed out last time, and it’s a pity. This time, there’s a holiday to make up for it...

Something’s not right.

This guy is a workaholic, right? Not thinking about working overtime during a vacation, and even suggesting a trip, it’s too abnormal... Just a few days ago, she was at the shooting range with Senior Kazama! And today, she’s suddenly changed her mind?

Could it be that she’s discovered something?

Taira Sakurako tensed up. She had a poker face; even with thunder in her heart, her expression remained calm. She could have been a general back in ancient times. For now, she neither agreed nor disagreed and instead asked, "Have you talked to Fushimi Roku about it?"

"N-not yet... If you want to bring him along, that’s, that’s also fine! We can all go together! Hahaha..."

Minamoto Tamako’s lies were easy to spot; her gaze wandered, and she gave a guilty laugh, making Taira Sakurako even more suspicious.

When the sky falls, let the taller ones hold it up. Taira Sakurako thought for a moment, unable to figure it out, so she decided to throw the problem to Fushimi Roku: "Then why don’t you go ask him first."

Minamoto Tamako blinked, not expecting Sakurako to be so concerned about Mr. Fu Jian. Even when traveling, she thought about going out with him, even though she usually seemed indifferent toward Fushimi Roku...As expected of siblings, both are tsundere!

Thinking about this, Minamoto Tamako smiled wryly, patting Sakurako’s head, feeling that Sakurako was now experiencing the warmth of family, which was wonderful. Surely, Miss Yukimura’s spirit in heaven would be very comforted!

Taira Sakurako felt that Tamako’s smile was indeed a bit sly. She didn’t know what this person was up to, but it felt very fishy, very fishy indeed. She decided to retreat into her box and observe for a while.

Seeing her retreat into the cardboard box, Minamoto Tamako thought she was being shy. Although they were siblings, it was normal to feel distant after not seeing each other for so many years. She could understand Sakurako’s feelings.

Now that she had Sakurako’s verbal directive, Minamoto Tamako took it as an order, ran to knock on Fushimi Roku’s door, and claimed that Sakurako wanted to travel to Shizuoka Prefecture, asking if he wanted to join.

Fushimi Roku saw her expression and knew that this was a notification, not a request for discussion.

The "Minamoto Tamako User Manual" in his mind was updated. When Minamoto Tamako sought his opinion, she usually looked serious; if she was cheerful when asking, it meant she had already made up her mind.

To be sure, Fushimi Roku held the door and asked, "What if I don’t want to go?"

Just as expected, Minamoto Tamako’s smile fell.

"If you don’t want to go, then don’t. I won’t force you..."

"After all, you’re busy training, I can understand that. As a criminal police officer, you need to work hard to improve..."

"But then again, life should be a balance of work and rest! Don’t stretch yourself too thin; it’s important to relax still..."

"Of course, I’m not trying to force you, just want to remind you..."

"So, really, you don’t want to go with us?"

Minamoto Tamako muttered a bunch with her hands behind her back, looking down, and when she finally asked, she met Fushimi Roku’s playful gaze.

She panicked inside, feeling like her little motives were seen through, and was about to say forget it if he didn’t want to go. But then she heard Fushimi Roku say, "It’s not impossible, but I have a condition."

"Eh?" Minamoto Tamako was taken aback.

"Hand over all the redemption vouchers you’ve saved up," Fushimi Roku said, head held high.
