The diagnosis and treatment hours of the Affiliated Hospital of Teito University start at 9:00 am, and Noriko Kurihara's working hours are 8:50 am.This is because there is a considerable time lag between when a doctor starts seeing a patient and when a prescription is sent back to the pharmacy. Once the prescription reaches the pharmacy, pharmacists work in teams of two to fill the prescription.One person actually dispenses the medicine, while the other checks for errors and packs the medicine into bags.The confirmer should stamp the medicine bag. In addition to serving outpatients, there are also jobs from inpatient wards, such as delivering medicines or dispensing emergency medicines.

On this day, when Dianzi and his colleagues were busy with these tasks, a man was always sitting in a corner of the pharmacy.He is a young associate professor in the medical department, his eyes fixed on the computer screen. Teito University began actively exchanging information with other research institutions through computers two years ago.One of the most concrete results is an online collaboration with the Central Research Institute of a pharmaceutical company.For all the drugs produced and sold by the pharmaceutical company, the hospital can obtain the necessary data in real time through this system.

Basically anyone can use this system, but the condition is that they must obtain a user name and password.Dianzi has both, but Dianzi has never touched this machine of unknown purpose since it was moved in.When she wants information about a drug, she does it the old way, which is to ask the pharmaceutical company.So do other pharmacists. It is well known that a young associate professor sitting in front of a computer is collaborating with a pharmaceutical company on a research project.Dianzi believes that such a system must be very convenient for them.But computers don't seem to be omnipotent. Just a few days ago, technicians outside the hospital came to discuss with the doctors. They suspected that the computer had been hacked.Dianzi knew nothing about these things.

In the afternoon, Dianzi went to the ward to instruct the inpatients to take their medicines, discussed the medicines of each patient with the doctors and nurses, and then went back to the pharmacy to dispense the medicines.It was a normal day, and she worked until five as usual.Just about to go home, a colleague stopped her and said that she had a call for her.There was a surge of excitement in her heart, maybe it was him. "Hello." She said into the receiver, her voice hoarse. "Ah...Miss Noriko Kurihara?" It was a man's voice, but it was not at all like the voice Noriko expected.The voice of the other party was so thin that it reminded people of a body prone to glandular diseases, and it was a bit familiar.

She replied, "I am." "Do you remember me? I'm Fujii, Fujii Yasushi." "Mr. Fujii..." As soon as the name came out, Noriko remembered it.Fujii Yasushi is the only man he met through a dating agency who has dated three times.She oh. "How are you?" "Very good, TOEFL. Ms. Kurihara is also good, right?" "fine……" "Actually, I'm near the hospital now. I saw you inside just now, and you seem to be a little thinner than before." "Ah..." Dianzi was surprised, not knowing what he was looking for her for.

"Excuse me, can I meet up later? Have a cup of tea together." Dianzi was very annoyed, and thought he had something serious to do. "Sorry, I have something to do today." "Just a moment. There's something I'm going to tell you anyway. Just thirty minutes, okay?" Dianzi deliberately sighed loudly so that the other party could hear. "Please don't do this again. You've caused me trouble just by calling, and I'm going to hang up." "Wait a minute, please. So, please answer my question: Are you still living with that man?"

"Ok?" "If you still live with him, I must tell you about it." Dianzi covered the receiver with his palm, lowered his voice and asked, "What's the matter?" "I want to tell you in person." The man said firmly, probably feeling that this sentence had aroused her concern. Dianzi hesitated, but couldn't ignore it. "Okay, where do we meet?" Fujii designated a cafe a few minutes away from the hospital, near Ogikubo Station. As soon as he entered the store, a man sitting in the seat inside raised his hand to greet him.His mantis-thin figure hadn't changed, and he was wearing a gray suit, but the top looked as if it was hanging on a hanger.

"Long time no see." Noriko sat down opposite Fujii. "Sorry to call you suddenly." "What's the matter?" "Let's order a drink first." "No, I'm leaving after listening to you." "But, that's not something you can say in a few words." Fujii called the waiter, ordered the royal milk tea, and then looked at Noriko with a slight smile, "You like royal milk tea, right?" Yes, when she was dating him before, she often ordered royal milk tea.Seeing that he remembered such things, Dianzi felt uncomfortable.

"Is your mother okay?" she wanted to tease him. Fujii's expression was suddenly clouded, and he shook his head: "He passed away half a year ago." "Ah... please forgive me. Did you die due to illness?" "No, it was an accident, I choked to death." "Eat rice cakes or something?" "No, it's cotton." "cotton?" "She ate the cotton in the quilt when I wasn't looking. I really don't understand why she did that. When I took it out, the cotton was bigger than a softball. Can you believe it?" Dianzi shook her head in disbelief.

"I was sad and blamed myself, and I didn't feel like doing anything for a while. However, I was sad, but I couldn't help feeling relieved, thinking, ah, I don't have to worry about my mother running around anymore." Fujii exhaled tone. Dianzi can understand his mood.Because of work, she sees a lot of family members who are tired of taking care of them.But, she thought, it's not my fault. The milk tea was brought up, and she took a sip.Fujii looked at her, narrowing his eyes. "It's been a long time since I saw you drinking black tea like this." Dianzi lowered his eyes, not knowing how to answer.

"Actually, my mother is gone. Apart from being relieved, I also feel restless." Fujii continued, "That is, she should be willing to date me now. Who do I mean by she, you should you know?" "It's been so long..." "I couldn't get over you and I ran over to your apartment. It was about a month after my mom died that I found out you were living with someone else. Honestly, I was shocked, but other than that, seeing He surprised me too." Noriko looked at Fujii: "What's so surprising?" "I've seen him." "No way?" "It's true. I don't know his name, but I remember his face well." "Where did you meet him?" "It's by your side." "what?" "That was last April. Let me tell you the truth, whenever I had time, I would visit you at the hospital or at the apartment, but you didn't notice." "I don't know at all." Dianzi shook his head.She never dreamed that someone would watch her secretly, and she couldn't help but get goosebumps in disgust. "However," Fujii seemed not to notice her unhappiness, and continued, "At that time, it was not only me who observed you, but someone else. He had been to the hospital and your apartment. I thought there must be something wrong, and I even wanted to tell you You. But soon I was busy with work and taking care of my mother, and I couldn't spare any time. I have been thinking about that person, but I didn't take any action afterwards." "The person you're talking about is..." "Yes, the person who lives with you." "How is it possible?" She shook her head, feeling her cheeks stiff, "You must have made a mistake." "Absolutely. Don't look at me like this, I can't forget people's appearance. He is the person at that time." Fujii said firmly. Dianzi picked up the cup, but she was not in the mood to drink tea, all kinds of thoughts were churning in her heart like a storm. "I didn't think he was a bad person just because of this. Maybe he just did it because of admiration for you, just like me. But, how should I describe it? As I said just now, the atmosphere at that time was really unusual The thought of you being with him makes me restless. That being said, I don’t think I should intervene, so I endured it until today. However, a few days ago, I happened to see you again. Since that day, You are all on my mind, and I made up my mind to tell you today." Noriko hardly listened to what Fujii said afterwards.His purpose seems to be to ask her to break up with her cohabiting boyfriend and have a relationship with him, but Dianzi doesn't even have the heart to deal with him.It's not because she thinks it's too ridiculous, but because her mental state is not enough to support it.She didn't remember how she left, and when she came to her senses, she was already walking on the street at night. He said it was April, last April. That's impossible, Dianzi met Akiyoshi in May, and their encounter should be purely accidental. isn't it?Is it not by chance? She recalled that time.Akiyoshi's face was contorted with abdominal pain, had he been waiting for Noriko to come home before that?All of that was his acting skills to get close to her? But what is the purpose? Assuming Akiyoshi approached Noriko with a purpose, why choose her?She is aware of her weight, and she is quite sure that the reason for being selected is definitely not her beauty. Is she eligible?pharmacist?old lady?live alone?Imperial University?Startled, she thought of a dating agency.When she joined, she provided a lot of personal information.As long as you consult the data there, it is not difficult to find objects that meet the desired conditions.Maybe Akiyoshi has access to those data. He used to work for a software company called Memorix. Could it be that company designed the matchmaking agency's system? Before she knew it, she had returned to the apartment, staggered up the stairs, and opened the door. "When I think of you being with him, I feel restless." Fujii's words sounded in her ears. "If you know this fact, you will have nothing to worry about." She looked into the dark room and murmured.
