That way, it will be easier for Sister Green to make her move.
Also, we need to get Inspector Megure drunk first.
Although I really feel bad for Inspector Megure, even if I don't help, since Midori has this idea in her mind, she will get into trouble sooner or later. Rather than letting her find those men whose backgrounds I don't know, it's better to let Natsume have it!
At least Xia Ye—
Sato Miwako blushed.
Cough!
As for Inspector Megure, I'll help him solve more cases in the future as compensation.
Anyway, judging from Midori's appearance, she's just lonely and wants some comfort. She still has feelings for Inspector Megure, so as long as she's careful, she shouldn't break up their family.
Sato Miwako sighed inwardly at how her moral standards had been lowered once again, that she could actually convince herself with such a reason!
But let's leave it at that!
Miwako Sato didn't care about any of that.
Now she's just waiting to see how things will unfold.
Despite the complicated details, Sato Miwako's thoughts were actually only fleeting.
When Inspector Megure saw his wife suggest drinking, he looked hesitant. He had personally witnessed Xia Ye's drinking capacity; even a group of his subordinates couldn't get him drunk, so he was sure he would be out of it by himself!
but--
The lady is right.
Xia Ye's achievements since joining the Metropolitan Police Department have benefited his nominal superior, Xia Ye, quite a bit.
Just two days ago, Matsumoto, the manager, said that his position might be slightly promoted. You know, he had given up hope of promotion a few years ago, but now there's a new opportunity. It's all thanks to Natsume!
Let's drink it!
Anyway, I'm at home!
If you're drunk, just sleep it off, it's no big deal!
"it is good!"
"Then Xia Ye, have a couple of drinks with me!"
Inspector Megure finally made up his mind: Drink!
"Row!"
Xia Ye readily agreed.
He glanced almost imperceptibly at the smiling Green, and a thought struck him.
Like Miwako Sato, I was reminded of certain scenes from movies.
"And me too, Inspector Megure~"
Sato Miwako's beautiful eyes darted around, and she chimed in playfully:
"I'm treating this meal as a celebration for solving this case. I won't stand for it if you don't let me drink the celebratory wine!"
"Good, good, good!" Inspector Megure not only didn't stop him, but was actually quite happy, since the more people drinking, the less he would have to drink!
"Then let me pour you some wine~"
Megure placed the wine glasses in front of everyone, opened the bottle of expensive liquor, and gently advised, "But you should all eat something first. Drinking on an empty stomach is bad for your health, so please be careful."
"Good~"
Everyone picked up their chopsticks.
Sato Miwako sighed inwardly. Who would have thought that such a gentle and considerate lady would have such immoral thoughts a moment later?
It’s true that people can’t be judged by their appearance!
"Summer Leaves~"
Mumu looked at Xia Ye with moist, beautiful eyes, her pretty face beaming with a friendly smile.
"Both of them have eaten my cooking before, but this is your first time. What's your opinion on my cooking?"
"It's delicious, it tastes like mom's cooking~" Xia Ye said after taking a bite of the sukiyaki beef hot pot.
Megure Midori's cooking is indeed very good, and it's very home-style, like the kind of taste from my childhood that I miss a lot after growing up.
"Xia Ye!"
Sato Miwako gently poked Natsume's waist.
How dare this guy compliment people!
They're going to—
When you praise someone's cooking for tasting like your mother's, aren't you indirectly implying that they are old?
"The taste of mom's cooking..."
Unlike Miwako, Midori Megure didn't think the same way. Instead, a happy smile appeared on her pretty face. "That's a great compliment! Then Natsume, eat more!"
"Good~"
...
The atmosphere was harmonious as glasses clinked and toasts were exchanged.
It subtly reveals a different meaning~
Just as Midori poured her husband a glass of wine, she heard Miwako shouting:
"Midori, pour me one too! I want to have a drink with Inspector Megure!"
"Okay, okay~"
Megure observed Miwako discreetly, noticing her flushed face and misty eyes, giving her a charmingly tipsy appearance. She then said with a coquettish smile, "Miwako, you've drunk so much. What if you get drunk? Isn't your mother waiting for you at home?"
"it's okay!"
Miwako Sato waved her hand.
"Anyway, I've already told Mom I'm not going home tonight. Even if I get drunk, Xia Ye can take me—waaaah~"
"Madam, you don't need to worry—"
Xia Ye stuffed a piece of beef into Sato Miwako's mouth, and looked at Megure Midori with a faint smile, saying:
"I'll take Miwako back~"
"That's good~"
Megure Midori nodded gently and poured Natsume a glass of wine.
There wasn't a hint of ambiguity in their conversation.
Watching the three continue drinking, Inspector Megure pondered the situation. Based on what Natsume and Miwako had said earlier, he was certain that the two of them were planning a date at a hotel tonight, but they hadn't even left before he invited them to his home—
Thinking about what I need to do in a little while.
Midori was somewhat annoyed.
I knew I would suddenly have this whim.
I won't be inviting Miwako over this time.
However, she never expected that what she had intended to do was simply meet her husband's subordinate and invite him to dinner. Suddenly, her feelings stirred, and the loneliness she had suppressed for so many years burst forth, catching her completely off guard.
A plan made in haste will naturally not be perfect.
My own husband is fine; getting him drunk isn't difficult.
The key is Miwako—
He had originally planned to personally persuade Miwako to drink if he couldn't handle it anymore, and he was determined to get her drunk no matter what.
But to my surprise, without me even lifting a finger, Miwako got herself completely drunk, and it looked like she wouldn't make it after just two more drinks!
Thus.
The plan went very smoothly!
Just wait until her husband and Miwako are drunk—
Cough!
Megure Midori quickly regained control of her surging emotions.
She felt like she had returned to her rebellious past, when she did whatever she wanted without any scruples.
Just like now~
After three more rounds of drinks...
Inspector Megure had reached his limit; his vision was blurry, he was swaying, and he looked like he was about to pass out drunk.
At that moment, Sato Miwako, who was also drunk and dazed, delivered the final blow.
"Inspector Megure, another drink, I'll toast you!"
"Good~"
A groggy Inspector Megure struggled to clink glasses with Miwako, downed a sip, and instantly lost consciousness, collapsing onto the table in front of him.
"Inspector Megure, you're not good enough!"
Sato Miwako chuckled, tossed back her long, slender neck, and downed the drink in her glass in one gulp. Then, like Inspector Megure, she slumped onto the table, seemingly "drunk."
"Why are you all drunk?"
Megure Midori blinked, her tone innocent...
However, she really didn't expect the plan to go so smoothly.
The husband and Miwako happened to be drunk together.
Although Xia Ye was somewhat drunk, she was still very clear-headed.
The process went as smoothly as if it were scripted.
However, as long as the plan goes smoothly, now it's my time to relax.
Judging from Xia Ye's gaze falling on his body, he should understand if he just gives a slight hint, right?
"Natsume, why don't you and Miwako just stay at home tonight?" Megure Midoriya stood up and said with a smile.
"Miwako is already drunk, and you've been drinking too, so you can't drive. Anyway, there are plenty of rooms at home, so why don't you stay the night?"
"Hmm, that's fine too~"
Xia Ye hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Megure Midori is absolutely right, but—
He was actually more looking forward to what was to come; the treacherous spirit of Cao Cao was already stirring!
"Xia Ye, you take Miwako with you, I'll take you to your room first."
Megure Midori glanced at her drunken husband slumped on the other side of the table. "But you'll also need to take Megure home for me later."
"it is good!"
Xia Ye slipped one hand under Sato Miwako's legs, and with a little effort, easily lifted her up in a princess carry.
"Madam, please lead the way."
"Come with me~"
With a smile, Mumu turned around and led the way, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a strange light.
Just as her husband said, Xia Ye is very strong, so her body must be very strong.
So--
...
Xia Ye stepped onto the stairs.
Looking at the alluring, swaying figure in front of me.
A meaningful smile appeared on his lips.
