Chapter 154 Is there no room for me anymore?
One month later
Shortly after Hoshino Hitomi's healing bracelet was returned by Fōtani Rei, it was successfully repaired by the system, which greatly improved her originally serious injuries and accelerated their healing.
Thanks to the powerful healing bracelet, in less than a month, all the injuries on her body had completely disappeared, and her physical condition had become better than ever before. She was able to go through the discharge procedures and return home to recuperate.
This is the third day since Hoshino Hitomi was discharged from the hospital after her recovery. The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing.
However, in sharp contrast to the beauty of the outside world, she stayed inside the Hoshinoya Group for the past three days and never stepped out of this place.
It’s not because she doesn’t want to go home, on the contrary, home is of great importance to her.
However, she knew deep down in her heart that once she returned home, Kurosawa Jin would not let her off easily.
According to his usual personality, he would most likely take extreme measures and stay at her door day and night, waiting for her to return.
She knew that as soon as she returned home, she would have to face his cold and complicated gaze as well as the unavoidable questioning and entanglement.
During the one month she was in the hospital, the dark tendencies of Furuya Rei and the other three people had been completely erased, and they had successfully gotten rid of the shadow of darkening.
However, in stark contrast to this, Kurosawa Jin's blackening value soared to an astonishing 99% like a bomb about to explode!
This number is simply horrifying, as if foreshadowing an inevitable disaster that is about to happen.
So, after weighing the pros and cons, she chose to stay in the Hoshinoya Group temporarily.
Although there is no warmth and comfort of home here, it can at least give her a moment of peace and security.
Here, she can focus on her work and use busyness to numb the anxiety deep in her heart.
Hoshino Hitomi gently closed the laptop, slowly leaned back in her chair, her body gradually relaxed, then she raised her head and looked towards the ceiling above her head.
She sighed deeply, and this sigh seemed to contain countless fatigue and helplessness.
Hoshino Hitomi said with a complicated expression: [But, it seems that hiding like this is not a solution...]
Xiaoyi couldn't help but persuade: [Host, are you planning to go home? But Kurosawa Zhen's current blackening value is too dangerous...]
Hoshino Hitomi nodded and said calmly: [Yes, I know. But I can only hide for a while, not forever. I have to go back sooner or later.]
Hoshino Hitomi: [Also, I always feel that the speed at which his darkening value is increasing is too outrageous...]
Xiaoyi explained in a heavy tone: [In my opinion, there are two main reasons why Kurosawa Jin's blackening value has soared: First, he accidentally shot the host's arm with a sniper rifle. Although it was only a scratch, he has always regarded the host as countless times more important than himself, so it is inevitable that he will blame himself.]
Xiaoyi: [Second, Kurosawa Jin actually saw the host and Furuya Rei together by chance]
Hoshino Hitomi's eyes widened in disbelief: [A coincidence? In other words, he just saw me and Furuya Rei close to each other, so he wanted to kill Furuya Rei? ]
Xiaoyi replied: [That’s right, and he was originally holding a sniper rifle to complete the organization’s assassination mission, but he found out that the host was with another man.]
Xiaoyi sighed and said: [The host must have seen Kurosawa Jin's possessiveness and jealousy. I don't need to elaborate on the reasons.]
Hoshino Hitomi: [……]
More than just seeing this, in her previous life, she was almost driven crazy by his morbid possessiveness.
At that time, whenever Kurosawa Jin saw any man who was slightly interested in her approaching her, he would take out his Beretta without hesitation and point it at the man's head.
Of course, there are things that are much more outrageous than this, but she really doesn't want to think about them anymore.
As time went by, no one dared to approach her anymore, and even to talk to her they had to stay three meters away...
She thought that in this life, Kurosawa Jin would be a little more normal, but she didn't expect that not only would he not be normal, but he became even crazier.
Xiaoyi: [It was only a matter of time before Kurosawa Jin wanted to kill Furuya Rei, so when he saw Furuya Rei so close to the host, he aimed his sniper rifle at Furuya Rei's vitals and fired a shot.]
Xiaoyi: [But he didn't expect the host to hear his gunshots, and he didn't expect the host to ignore his own safety and pounce on Furuya Rei. The host was even injured because of this, and he also developed a deep resentment in his heart.]
Hoshino Hitomi asked: [He should have my Angel's Kiss mark on him, has he been anywhere in the past month? ]
Xiaoyi was silent for a moment, then slowly said: [Yes, in addition to completing the organization's tasks this month, he would drive to the host's house alone, but he would just park the car outside the host's house and stay there for half a day.]
The corners of Hoshino Hitomi's mouth twitched slightly, and she suddenly felt something was wrong.
[Does he...go over there and wait every day? ]
Xiaoyi was silent for a moment before saying: [Judging from the positioning of the logo on Angel's Kiss, this is indeed the case.]
Hoshino Hitomi couldn't help but sighed and said helplessly: [Then we should hurry back. If this continues, his darkening value will probably reach 100%...]
Xiaoyi worriedly said: [Does the host really intend to go back? I think it is better for the host to keep a distance from him for the time being, and I don’t know when he will calm down...]
Hoshino Hitomi appears calm on the surface, but she has already given up struggling in her heart.
[Although I have thought so, Xiaoyi, have you forgotten that he and I are partners in the organization, and we have to go on missions together...]
Xiaoyi laughed awkwardly: [It seems so... Host, then you do your best, I will withdraw first]
*
The moon was hanging high in the sky, its silver light spreading across the earth, as if a veil had been cast over the entire world. The night was as dark as ink, yet it revealed a hint of warmth.
Hoshino Hitomi informed Shimazaki Takumi in advance and went home alone.
She rode her motorcycle at lightning speed towards home, and just as she was about to reach her doorstep, she caught a glimpse of the familiar black figure in the distance.
Kurosawa Jin was still wearing the ghostly black windbreaker, as if he had blended into the night.
The long silver hair was scattered wantonly on his broad back, fluttering gently in the breeze, exuding a mysterious and charming aura.
At this time, Kurosawa Jin was leaning against the luxurious Porsche sports car with a cigarette in his mouth.
White smoke rose slowly and swirled around him, blurring his already extremely cold face and making it impossible to see his true expression and inner thoughts at the moment.
However, despite this, the powerful aura emanating from him still makes people feel an invisible pressure.
With a sharp brake sound, Hoshino Hitomi's motorcycle stopped steadily next to the Porsche.
She got out of the car lightly, raised her hand and took off the helmet on her head with a swift movement, revealing her long, shiny black curly hair.
The moonlight sprinkled on her delicate face, outlining a faint outline.
Hoshino Hitomi raised her head slightly, her eyes fell on Kurosawa Jin who was standing in front of the car, a complex look in her eyes.
She opened her red lips slightly and whispered in a gentle and steady tone: "Gin."
Kurosawa Jin slowly raised his hand, took out the cigarette between his fingertips, put it out, and then threw the cigarette butt into the trash can beside him without hesitation.
His eyes were as sharp and scorching as an eagle's, fixed firmly on the girl in front of him.
There was endless indifference and resentment in those eyes, which were as chilling as a thousand-year-old ice.
However, deep within this coldness, there is a hint of love that is difficult to describe.
"There's no one else here, you don't have to call me by my code name."
As soon as he finished speaking, his bony hand, like white jade, with a hint of tenderness and compassion that was barely noticeable, gently lifted a strand of slightly curly hair beside her cheek, and then slowly stroked the girl's slightly cold face.
Before Hoshino Hitomi could respond, Kurosawa Jin had already taken the lead. His words were filled with undisguised jealousy, but the expression on his face was unusually calm, even a little unpredictable.
He stared at Hoshino Hitomi closely, as if he could see through her, and said in a cold and low voice:
"Or do you already have another man in your heart and there is no room for me anymore?"
