chapter 4

by Ernest Hemingway 16:14,Jul 14,2023


Coming out of the Academic Affairs Building, Seika Matsumoto hurriedly said goodbye in front of Hikaru Ogata, without shaking hands with him. She didn't even look at his reaction. She turned around and hurried to her car on the side of the road. After unlocking the car, she suddenly found that the left front wheel of the car was flat, and she didn't know when the tire was punctured.

The tire was very flat, and depending on the situation, there was no other way but to replace the spare tire. It was obviously fine when I drove over just now, so why did it run out of gas so quickly! She couldn't help being annoyed, and kicked the rim resentfully.

Hikaru Ogata's car slid over from a distance and stopped behind her. He lowered the window and asked her, "What's wrong, Mr. He?"

She was startled subconsciously again, turned around, and covered up: "It's okay."

He tilted his head, looked past her at the deflated wheel, then looked back at her, and said, "Mr. He, where are you going to do business? I'll ask the driver to take you there first."

"No need." She refused without thinking, and when she saw Hikaru Ogata raised her eyebrows, she realized that she refused too bluntly, so she explained: "I still have something to deal with in my class, you go, I'll go Just go there."

She was clearly lying. When he was in the hospital just now, he said that he had something urgent to go out, but he didn't expose her. He just smiled and said goodbye to her politely: "Okay, goodbye, Mr. He."

He motioned for the driver to drive, and the car quickly disappeared on campus.

Seika Matsumoto had been standing by the side of the road, watching his car disappear, and then rolled up her sleeves to change the tire by herself. Energetic and enthusiastic boys are the most indispensable thing in engineering colleges, and soon a passing boy came forward to help, and she was not polite, directing the two boys to help her change the spare tire.

She didn't go to her alma mater to find connections, and she didn't go home, but drove to Kota Banzai Public Security Bureau.

Officer Kane was a little surprised to receive her call, but he did not refuse her invitation, and came to a teahouse next to the city bureau to meet her. "What's the matter? You want to see me suddenly." He asked.

Seika Matsumoto didn't know how to tell him that they were not familiar with each other, even her decision to come to him today was made on impulse. "Do you remember me?" she asked.

Officer Kane smiled, "I remember."

He naturally remembered her, she was the victim of the case he was in charge of four years ago. In that case, facing three vicious gangsters, after she was assaulted, she killed one with a fruit knife and broke the legs of the other by driving. The first thing she did after escaping was Call your boyfriend and tell him to call the police.

There are many beautiful women, and there are also many smart and beautiful women, but there are very few smart and beautiful women who are calm, rational, cruel, decisive and decisive at critical moments. So even though he hasn't seen her for a few years, he still remembers her.

Seika Matsumoto is still thinking about how to narrate this matter, which is really unbelievable, if she says something wrong, people will misunderstand that she has a mental problem. She looked into Officer Kane's eyes and asked, "It's the case four years ago, the gangster you caught last, are you sure he was executed, aren't you?"

Officer Kane was taken aback by her question, "Huh?"

"Kim Song, that's Kim Song." She said the frightening name directly, and the speed of her speech accelerated unconsciously, "I recently saw a person who looks very similar to him, his voice and appearance are very similar, no, no It's just like, it's the same person!"

The nervousness she showed aroused the sympathy of the middle-aged man in front of him. His eyes showed pity, "Seika Matsumoto, his name is Seika Matsumoto, I remember correctly, right? Please calm down first, I can tell you for sure , Kim Song is dead, and was executed two years ago."

Seika Matsumoto pursed her lips and asked again: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."Officer Kane nodded solemnly, and continued: "I am deeply impressed by that person, not only because of his previous crimes, but also because I heard that he did a very surprising thing before the execution. "

"What's the matter?" She couldn't help asking.

"He offered to donate his cornea."

Seika Matsumoto was also very surprised. It was indeed unexpected that such a vicious person could suddenly become noble before his death. She fell silent, and after a while said again: "But that person really resembles him."

"In this world, there are people who look very similar. There are also people who look like twins, but they are not related at all. Maybe, somewhere, there is a girl who looks exactly like you."Officer Kane said.

"But he treats me, treats me..." She tried to find the right words to express herself, "He tried to get close to me, he asked for my mobile phone number, took the initiative to strike up a conversation with me, and later wanted me to sit in his car. Please Don't get me wrong that I'm being self-indulgent, I can feel it."

Officer Kane couldn't help laughing, and asked her: "Miss He, you are so beautiful, even when you are walking on the street, you have often encountered the opposite sex to strike up a conversation with you, right?"

The meaning in his words was very clear, even if there was such a man, and that man did try to approach her, it was just an ordinary conversation between opposite sexes.

Seika Matsumoto has no way to refute, she is indeed very beautiful, she has been chased by little boys since elementary school, this kind of good relationship with the opposite sex has continued until now, even if she has been wearing a wedding ring on her hand after marriage, she has never blocked the opposite sex enthusiasm.

Officer Kane looked at her silence with a smile, and advised her: "Stop thinking about it, forget about the past."

Things have progressed to the present, and it seems that everything shows that her fear and worry are nothing more than her inability to forget the hurt in the past. Seika Matsumoto also couldn't help having doubts about herself, she pursed her lips and thought for a moment, and then asked Officer Kane the last question of this meeting: "Can you help me?"

Officer Kane was noncommittal, but asked, "What's the matter?"

She took out a pen and paper from her purse, wrote down Hikaru Ogata's name, date of birth, and address one by one, handed it to Officer Kane, and asked: "This is the information of that person, can you verify it for me? Are these all real?"

Officer Kane glanced at the note, surprised, "You know so well?"

"He showed me his ID card, but I only glanced at it, but I couldn't write down the ID number," she replied.

Officer Kane couldn't help laughing again, "You can remember so much at a glance, your memory is good enough."

Her memory is indeed very good, otherwise she wouldn't remember the events of that night so deeply, his face, his voice, the way he looked at her... They reappeared in her nightmares over and over again. She reminded herself not to think about it, and just looked at Officer Kane pitifully, "Is that okay? Can you do me this favor?"

It is always difficult for a man to refuse a request from a beautiful girl. Officer Kane smiled and put the note into his small notepad, "Okay, I will check it for you when I have a chance."

He is a warm-hearted person, and he called Seika Matsumoto back within a few days.

"Miss He, I checked for you. Hikaru Ogata is indeed a real person, and his identity information is also true. How should I say it?" I was also shocked, but when compared with the photo of the criminal, you can see the difference, there are two people."

Only then did Seika Matsumoto feel relieved, and thanked Officer Kane: "Thank you very much."

Officer Kane asked her again: "Did that person contact you again?"

"No." she replied.

"Hey, the young man may just want to pursue a beautiful girl. I may feel strange. Even though I am so good-looking, why would I be guarded by a girl as a thief!" Officer Kane joked with her, and encouraged her again: "Why Seika Matsumoto, forget about that and live a good life!"

She was really grateful to the police officer, so she couldn't help but say thank you again.

"You can come to me if you encounter other troubles in the future. You are welcome."Officer Kane smiled, and finally said: "If that kid keeps pestering you, you can ask me for help!"

In fact, to be fair, the previous two times were not considered entanglements. After Seika Matsumoto determined that Hikaru Ogata and Kim Song were two irrelevant people, she looked at the problem more rationally and objectively, and realized that it was entirely her own reason that caused this Suspicious.

Hikaru Ogata never contacted her again.

Once she met the female colleague from the Academic Affairs Office at school. The colleague was very disappointed and told Seika Matsumoto that Hikaru Ogata hadn't come. She called him, and he answered, but he didn't come. The one who came to the school to pick up the watch was another man, tall and strong, with a face full of flesh.

As soon as she said Seika Matsumoto like this, she knew that it was the man who drove Hikaru Ogata last time, like his bodyguard.

Seika Matsumoto comforted her colleague a few words, but felt more relaxed in her heart. Her life seemed to have returned to calm all of a sudden. Hikaru Ogata suddenly appeared, gave her a great shock, and then disappeared without a trace.

She applied for a doctoral student at her alma mater, and the tutor was looking for the same tutor as when she was a master. The old man has been studying all his life, and he is decent and rigorous in his studies. Although he likes her as a student very much, he made it clear that she should be admitted by her own ability. Will open any back door for her.

Seika Matsumoto sent a picture of "laughing and crying" to her teacher on the Internet to describe her sad and helpless mood.

Her parents didn't support her to study for a Ph. D. Although the family wasn't rich, they didn't lack in money. They felt that she could live a life easily, and there was no need to work so hard on herself. Fortunately, there is Furkan's support, and she does everything she can to check information and run errands. Seika Matsumoto only hates that he and her are not in the same profession.

Here she learns from the sea and works hard, but the family members often encounter good things. First, He's father and Mrs. Seika got lucky and won the tourism award. The old couple went out together to visit the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. Then, Furkan also got a precious opportunity to go abroad for training.

Seika Matsumoto was both envious and jealous. When she was packing Furkan luggage, she couldn't help feeling sour. She threw his suitcase on the ground and said bitterly, "It doesn't matter. I'm going to be a dissatisfied wife soon. Why do I pretend to be a good wife? mother!"

Furkan couldn't help laughing, jumped onto the bed and held her down, "If you don't like it, I won't go, and my parents are not at home, so I don't feel at ease leaving you at home alone."

In other words, she is not a child, and she must have a guardian by her side at all times, and this opportunity is really rare for him, which will be very beneficial for her future development. She grabbed his collar and said half-truthfully, "Don't worry, as a wife, I will never hold you back at critical moments. Husband, don't worry, learn your skills, and I will go back to school and study hard even if I am a concubine." , in the future, our husband and wife will fly like wings."

Furkan was amused by her, he lowered his head and kissed her again and again, he got excited after making a fuss, he stripped her clothes with his hands, and teased her: "I'll plant some seeds for you before my husband leaves, wait There will be a good harvest next year."

The two rolled on the bed, most of the time he suppressed her, but sometimes she could get the upper hand, pin him down, and ask him arrogantly: "Are you convinced? Are you convinced?"

How could you not accept it? He was out of breath, but his eyes were as gentle as water, and he answered irrelevant questions: "Yanyan, I love you."

She bent down, kissed his lips, and responded: "Furkan, I love you too."

She loves him too, very much.

After sending Furkan away, she really packed her schoolbag and went to school to review her homework. Every day, she mingled with the students and went to the library to occupy a seat. People often mistook her for a student. Within two days, there were still strangers The boy offered to help her occupy a seat.

She called Furkan and talked about it very proudly, "Oh, Furkan, you made money by marrying me. I look so young. When you are almost fifty, I will die like I am in my early thirties. When the time comes There must be someone who thinks you are a successful person, otherwise how could you have met such a young girl!"

Furkan echoed her with a smile, and told her to take good care of herself, "If you find it hard, then resign, if you don't pass the exam this year, let's take the exam next year, it's not like I can't afford you."

"Go, go! Crow's mouth, who said I can't pass the exam this year? Don't you look down on my IQ? I think I was a famous genius girl back then!" She spat at him, but she was afraid that he would worry, "Actually, there are not many students in the school. The current students are quite mature and rarely cause trouble for me."

People often talk and slap their mouths. It was only the second day after she said this, and she didn't want a student in the class to cause trouble for her.
