Chapter 8 in Bodo

The last one started at 8:30.Dofu intends to give Caoxiangtian Tsuruko a hairstyle before leaving the stage.After the finale, the women in the entourage combed her usual hairstyle.Of course, if he even did these trivial tasks, Cao Xiangtian Hezi would be grateful to him, but Daofu left them to do it. He was contracted to comb her hair at every solo concert.So he's done his job, staying backstage for 30 minutes after the finale to comb her hair, which counts as extra service or courtesy. When he started doing hair for Tatsuko Fujinami at a solo concert, it was a down-to-earth service, pouring all of his heart and energy into it.

However, after a year and a half, the object has changed and the conditions are not what they used to be.The passage of time meant that his fame expanded.In the meantime, according to her request, he added a lot of work to Fujinami Ryuko's hairstyle, and also designed and made hairstyles for two popular models.This time, Cao Xiangtian Hezi solemnly hired him to do hair for her performances in various places, and talked about whether he wanted extra services from the beginning.He has the right to choose whether to follow her or not. Cao Xiangtian Hezi is a singer, because she has just emerged recently, her qualifications are not deep, and she is not very airy.Although the future is limitless, this world often judges people by reality.She is still too radical, and there are many "big shots" above her.

In this way, she has exactly something in common with the beauty rookie Michio Sayama.But for Dove, it is not acceptable to be equal to him. The people he serves must be higher than him.If you are not a big shot, your status cannot be improved. This slanted relationship makes others always look up at him, making him climb slowly, sometimes quickly.In terms of horizontal relationship, it is difficult to climb higher.Not only that, often serving people of undetermined worth, even in danger of declining.Society measures him only by the level of those he serves.He made up his mind that if he wanted to be famous, he would only serve the big men.He hairdos two popular models, one famous for her designs and one famous herself.

In this sense, it is not a big deal to be employed by Cao Xiangtian He Zili, but it is not a disadvantage.Caoxiang is becoming popular, and it may be even better in the future.In fact, it is hard to say how popular she will be in the end, anyway, she will be even more popular than she is now.In this way, this time he followed her to Bodo. ——There is no reason for it. "I'm going to a friend in Xiaocang. I won't be back tonight. If anyone asks, please tell me." After returning to the hotel, Dove said to his assistant Yanagida Toshio. "Okay. When do you get back here tomorrow? Someone asked me so I could tell them."

"Solo concerts are held day and night, and the matinee starts at 12:30. You must go to the backstage one hour in advance to do a haircut for Caoxiang Tianhezi." "Be back before 11:30." "Ok." Dolph changed into his outing clothes and looked in the mirror.He put on a new gray top and a pair of sweatpants underneath. Those people in the theater haven't come back yet, maybe another 30 minutes.Kusakata Tsuruko has reserved three rooms on the fifth floor of this hotel, one for her sister, manager and clerk Okano Yoshiko; one for a chubby single woman; come woman.Dofu and Yanagida each lived in a room on the third floor. ——This is called Hakata N Hotel.You can see the river through the window.

"It's past 9 o'clock." Dove looked at his watch and said, "Call Hasegawa around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and ask about the situation in the store." "understood." Yanagida nodded as if bowing his head.He is 22 years old and looks 19 because of his small stature.Taoist apprentices pay the most attention to appearance.Hasegawa is not an apprentice, but an employee. Because he is older, he is equivalent to the manager in the store. His strengths are that he is honest and a little clever. "Tell Hasegawa that I'll call him again when I get back." Dofu said to Liutian while wearing glasses.

The work is done, and the rest is other things.But.The awareness of work has not been completely eliminated, it still remains in my heart, and I am still imagining the future path in my mind.The crossroads of ambition and fulfillment are now reached.The road went so fast, even I didn't expect it. However, it will be difficult in the future.The antipathy of the same industry has spread from the local area to the surface, and the potential enemies in the past have gradually become public. It wasn't just his peers who were jealous of his enemies, and Dolph also had an uneasy feeling about it.

Dolph boarded a taxi waiting at the entrance of the hotel.Yanagida sent it to the car, and said to the driver through the window: "Please send the teacher to Hakata Station." What a nosy!Dove felt displeased for a while.The driver adjusted the rearview mirror with his hands and nodded. Taxis crossed the brightly lit tramways of the shopping street.Whenever there is a signal to stop, the driver looks in the rearview mirror.Dolph thought he might be looking at the car behind him.The direction of the destination is opposite to the station. "Oh, driver, can I go to Hirao?" Dove said while looking ahead at the express train station.

"Aren't you going to the station?" "Because of something, I want to go to Hirao, to the Hirao Sanso Hotel. Isn't the change too sudden? I'm sorry." "Hirao Mountain Hotel? It's not bad there!" "not so good." "That hotel is very profitable!" The driver turned around.He speaks freely and is about the same age as a dowager. After crossing the railway crossing, the shopping street ends.The front was deserted and the road was dark. (The one I saw on the plane was Prosecutor Kuwayama's wife. She was also a customer of Murase's beauty salon. She hadn't seen her for two years, but she must have admitted it correctly.) Dove sat on the seat thinking about something. (Sitting next to the woman is her husband, the prosecutor, who can be seen as a couple. He is reading a book. He is a thin man of forty-two or three-year-old. He is the kind of simple-lived and self-respecting middle-aged man commonly seen among officials. young man.)

He didn't look up from the book, but his wife would secretly tell him if she saw it.The couple went on a trip together, obviously not on business. (However, where are they going? Are they going back to Kyushu on vacation? Or is there something going on in Kyushu?) It's fine for couples to go anywhere, but it's unpleasant to come to Kyushu.Although there is no reason, just the fact that the prosecutors from Tokyo appeared in Kyushu is disturbing enough - not to the extent of anxiety, it can be said to be disturbing.It's okay if you meet them elsewhere.Not disturbing, but unpleasant—

The car came to a screeching halt.Cross rails were lowered at crossings on private railways. "Sir," said the driver, "aren't you Mr. Officialdom?" Dolph was taken aback.It would be normal to call him Sayama, but to call him Miyasaka, he couldn't help shivering. Calling him Sayama, he could still pretend to be confused, but when he called out his real surname, Miyasaka, he felt as if someone had figured out the truth, and he couldn't find an excuse for a while. "Who are you?" He looked at the back of the driver's head. "Oh, really Miyasaka-kun? I'm Etou, Okawa's Etou Zenzo, remember?" A long, brightly lit tram rumbled past. Okawa City is located in the southwest of Fukuoka Prefecture, on the lower reaches of the Chikugo River, across a bridge from Saga Prefecture, and is a famous production area for cabinets and other furniture.Dolph's hometown is there, where he spent his unbearable boyhood. From Hizen (Saga Prefecture) to Chikugo, there are many people with the surname Eto.The driver's name was Jiangtou Shanzao, but Daofu had no classmates with this name in elementary school or middle school.Then, later— "Well, I'm Etou Zenzao, a carpenter in the cabinet carpentry department of Okawa Furniture Factory. Aren't you in the finished product department? I talked to you three or four times at that time, but I don't remember." "yes?" Dolph was vague.The car crosses the crossing. The tension in my heart could not be calmed down for a long time.After crossing the crossing, the driver stopped slowly again, turned on the dome lights, and turned his face back to show the Dolf. Smiling rectangular face, black eyebrows, thick eyelids, nose and mouth fat and big.Dove looked at that face and finally remembered.There is indeed such a person among the apprentices who operate the chainsaw in the carpentry department, but he rarely sees him. Dolph had no choice but to smile ambiguously and nod. The driver Jiangtou asked reminiscently, "Are you in Tokyo now?" "yes·" "How many years have passed since then? It's been seven years since I left Okawa Furniture Factory. It's not interesting to be a carpenter making cabinets all the time, so I drove a taxi and came to Hakata. You are three years earlier than me Did you get out of there?" "Probably..." He was gradually involved in the driver's topic, and maybe talked about the past he didn't want to touch. "Really? Look, it's been 10 years in a flash, and it's been a long time since we saw each other!" A row of old-style houses on the riverside appeared before Dove's eyes.He was born in a house in that alley.He remembered that half of the house was used by his carpenter father for carpentry work. There were only two small rooms for people, one with six tatami mats and the other with three tatami mats.My father worked so much that his waist was bent, and he had to work night shifts with lights on in a dim room at night. "Everyone in Dachuan Furniture Factory said that you went to Arita after you were fired from there, and that you fired colored glaze in Arita. Is it true?" The fellow countrymen really asked about the nasty things.However, it is surprising that the rumors are so accurate. In fact, I have not told anyone about going to Arita.So, how much do you know about your future occupation and your hometown?Daofu wanted to know very much, but he didn't dare to ask Jiangtou Shanzao rashly, so he replied nonchalantly: "I didn't stay in Arita for long, and then I went to Tokyo." From his reaction, I can roughly know what I want to know. "Really? So, have you been in Tokyo for a long time?" Jiangtou said without doubt.It seems that he doesn't know the details.Dove felt a little relieved. "More than 8 years." He replied quickly. "More than 8 years? That's not too short! — Live in Hotel N?" "yes." "Staying in Hotel N, you have an unusual status! The young man at the door of the hotel called you a teacher just now, what kind of teacher are you?" "I run a beauty salon." "Hospital? Oh, are you a doctor now?" "It's not a hospital, it's a beauty parlor. It's the kind of shop that perms women's hair. It's just hairstyles." "Well, beauty parlors. Kyushu is only for women, but Tokyo is for men? It's Tokyo Kaihua!" "There are also more male beauticians in Kyushu. I heard there are also Hakata." "Hey, yes! I didn't expect you to become a perm. They call you a teacher, so you must have done a good job. I came to Hakata to do this too. "Singer Kusakada Tsuruko is performing in the theater here, do you know?" "That's right, there are quite a lot of audiences at the Fukuoka International Theater! Tsuruko Kusakata also lives in Hotel N?" "At the request of Miss Cao Xiang, I made hair for her performance." "Oh, you made hairstyles for Cao Xiangtian Hezi?!" Jiangtou, who was driving the car, cried out in surprise, "Qing, I can't believe it, you are so amazing! When did you become like this? I can't believe it, it's true ..." Taxi speeds through the dark countryside. He was not surprised to hear that he opened a beauty salon in Tokyo, but when he heard the name of Tsuruko Kusakata, Jiangtou was very surprised. "When did you learn this skill?" Jiangtou was very puzzled that an apprentice carpenter in the countryside had such a promising future. Dove couldn't help worrying.The place to go in front is the Mountain Hotel.This is a high-end love hotel, which is also very famous in Tokyo, and he has let Sachiko live in it first. Sachiko was on the plane with him, not sitting with him.When they went to the bathroom on the plane, the two had talked, but the people who traveled with them didn't see it.But let the car drive to that hotel, Jiangtou will know that he is going to meet a woman.Especially when leaving N Hotel, the apprentice told the driver to "go to Hakata Station", and he changed the direction halfway, so Jiangtou must understand his intention.Jiangtou must have a lot of experience in this field of work as a taxi driver. …Jiangtou has already been amazed by his achievements, but this kind of "ugliness" is exposed, which is really a headache.This time, I took this unlucky taxi. "Hey, Mr. Gongfan," Jiangtou called Daofu's old surname (actually his real surname) while driving, "Tomorrow I'm off work, so I'll go to the backstage of the theater to find you, okay?" "I want to see Caoxiang Tian Hezi from close up in the backstage. I am a fan of Caoxiang! Not only me, but also my wife and my wife's sister are her fans. If you can intercede with me, let She signed me to learn." The crook!Dove cursed Jiangtou secretly in his heart.But he had to rely on him to send it to the hotel in the villa, so he couldn't refuse it straight away. "When should I go backstage?" Jiangtou continued to ask. "Around 12 o'clock." Dove reluctantly responded. "Around 12 o'clock? So, I can also enjoy her solo concert for free? Thank you so much!" Jiangtou's voice was full of excitement, which annoyed Daofu even more. This area is similar to the scene of the new development zone in Tokyo, with new villages, western-style buildings, and forests. "The place with the woods is the Hirao Villa where Nomura Wangtoni lived. It is said that Shinsaku Takasugi and Takamori Saigo also came here." Jiangtou introduced the historic sites in this area.Dolph hates it. Under the guidance of the maid, he walked through the hall and came to the yard.Catch your slippers there and walk along the stepping stones.The maid held a lantern in her hand.There was a lawn at the foot, and the dark woods outside the wall obscured the stars in the sky.The hotel is bigger than expected. Open the gate on the low hedge, and there are three single rooms inside.After opening the sliding door, which was the same as the ordinary room, and entering the room through the door paved with gravel, the maid greeted from outside the partition, and a soft voice answered from inside: "Please come in! It's Sachiko Edamura. Sachiko, who had changed into a yukata, sat in the corner of the room.In the middle of the room was a dining table covered with a white cloth. "You came!" Sachiko greeted and stood up.She is slender, and she is used to seeing suits, but she always feels that this outfit is out of harmony. She doesn't feel special when she wears a suit, but when she puts on a kimono, her hair looks too thin.Dolph took a lot of effort to conceal this defect for her, but it was still too conspicuous.Two years ago, Sachiko Edamura looked young no matter what, but now, she began to wrinkle under the eyelids and around her cheeks. "Have you eaten yet?" "have eaten." "yes?" Sachiko glanced at the white cloth on the dining table, then looked back at the waitress, and said, "Hey, all right!" The waitress quickly bowed and walked out, closing the sliding door. Sachiko stood there motionless watching Doffer change into his yukata.But it's not about packing up the suit he took off.She couldn't hold back her emotions—competitive and skeptical. Dolph ignored her and went straight into the bathroom.The bathtub is on the opposite side of the hall, small and comfortable, just enough to accommodate two people. ——For this trip to Hakata, Sachiko Edamura wanted to follow whatever she said, and she didn't listen to her explanations, and the more she explained, the more suspicious she became, and she insisted on it.She suspected that he was bringing other women.If you forcefully stop it, it's not easy to tell Cao Xiangtian Hezi directly. In order not to cause trouble, Dao Fu had to agree. She just said that she had eaten, and she immediately changed her face.Probably she had been waiting to have dinner with him, so she suspected that he had eaten with other women outside.Lately she has become increasingly suspicious. Soaking in the hot water, he thought, how free it would be to travel alone!Being entangled by her, he yearns for freedom all the more.How free it is to be alone! Compared with two years ago, Sachiko Edamura is a different person.In front of him, the previous posturing and urbane appearance have long since disappeared.She was still putting on a show outside, but when it was just the two of them, she was a completely ordinary carnal and jealous woman.Dove also didn't expect that she would become so amazing. He wanted to get rid of her half a year ago, but after she knew about it, he stuck him even tighter. When he talked about breaking up with her, she panicked.Knowing her past well, the Taoist stares at her now. Two reasons bridged the rift between them.Sachiko Kimura is reluctant to quit the magazine she works for.She loves the profession of editor of the "Women's Corridor", so she doesn't like the outside world to know about her love affair with him.She used her knowledge effectively professionally, was content to have a little power in the circle of interviewees, and was paid a modest salary.If you quit your current job, you may never find such a comfortable career again.She was well aware of this, and she did not want to have a frivolous quarrel with him that would cause so much trouble that she would have to resign. From Dofu's side, Sachiko Edamura still has some use value.Regarding Ryuko Fujinami, she thought about him, and later introduced him in "Women's Corridor" whenever she had the opportunity.It was indeed Sachiko Edamura who created the opportunity for him to become famous.Not only that, but she also introduced it to other editorial colleagues in fashion magazines, women's magazines, etc., and they also praised him. However, judging from the goal pursued by Dove, it is only a short section of the road ahead.It will take a while to not rely on Sachiko Edamura's help.Sachiko must be mastered before she becomes completely self-reliant, not relying on the press, but before the other party asks her.Therefore, don't be too indifferent, and please her appropriately. Especially now that potential enemies are beginning to show up, it is even more unfavorable to push Sachiko Edamura to the opposite side. Maybe it will be used to attack and slander, and if it is not done, she will fight back, so I have to bear with it.After the status is consolidated, I will not be afraid of any attack or slander. These interests of the two restrained Sachiko and also restrained Daofu, so that the complete rupture caused by lust would not happen immediately. The bathroom door opened, and Sachiko Edamura walked in.The light shone dimly on her fair shoulders and chest through the water vapor.Her neck and legs were long and thin, and her collarbones were prominent.The water in the tub is overflowing. "Why, are you still washing?" Dove asked, stepping aside. "Wash as many times as you want, can't you?" Sachiko turned her face away.Breasts are not as full as they were two years ago. "that is your freedom." "Who did you dine with?" "The ones who came here with you." "Who, who is it?" "The manager of Tsuruko Cao Xiangtian, the conductor of the band, and Yanagida in the store." "Don't you know that I am waiting for you without eating?" "I thought about it, but I have to socialize, there's nothing I can do!" "You ate with Caoxiangtian Tsuruko, right?" Sachiko suddenly turned her head to Doffer, her sharp eyes fixed on him motionlessly. "No, she was too busy to eat with us. She said she would eat after the show." He knew she was going to ask these questions, and he could even guess what she was going to ask next. "Are you trying to plan for Tsuruko Kakata?" "Don't be kidding, how could I have her idea, I'm not interested at all." "Why did you follow her to Kyushu so far away?" "I didn't want to come, but she asked repeatedly, and it was hard to refuse. She begged me several times." "If you say that, who will believe it? She is young, looks good, and beautiful." "She's pretty?" "Don't pretend to be garlic!" "I just hate that look. Young is young, but he is very naive and poorly cultivated." Saying that she was poorly educated made Sachiko Edamura a little happier.In fact, she wanted to reconcile with her husband just now, and jumped into the bathtub by herself without calling her, just to express this meaning. "Is this true?" "of course!" "I come here with you, don't you hate it?" "it's OK." Sachiko Edamura turned around.It was inconvenient to move those heels in the small bathtub, so she crossed her legs.Dolph's knee was between her legs. "No! Don't think you can coax me like this!" "I'm not trying to coax you, this way the place will be more spacious and the sitting will be more comfortable." Her back felt thin to the touch.He held her body as if floating on the water with his hands.Sachiko hooked Doffer's head with trembling hands, pressed her lips to his mouth, and stuck her tongue in to fiddle with it.She used too much force, causing him to gulp down a sip of water. The two walked out of the bathroom hugging each other. The crows could be heard outside the bedroom.The thin quilt was crumpled under him.Sachiko put her two long legs on the quilt, lay on her back on the bed, her naked body was only covered with a bathrobe, she closed her eyes and rested her mind.The sheets were also scrunched to the point of creases. "It's you who made me like this! Every time after the incident, Sachiko Edamura said so. Dove didn't deny it.I don't know since when, the initial negativity that Sachiko showed gradually disappeared.In the beginning, she always maintained a higher-level posture than Dolf, and always controlled her body with her high spiritual power, but this effort became more and more painful.She had tasted bitterly of the separation of mind and body, and soon began to give up the painful endeavor.She was willing to submit her mind to her body the moment she realized that her cultivation could not overcome the first taste of savage intoxication. Once you are willing, you will gradually develop in depth.However, she still believed in her self-cultivation, so she didn't think her intellectual beliefs would collapse because of these things.Now she seems to think that by the inward transformation of the flesh by the visible incorporation of a foreign body which has nothing to do with knowledge, it has had an incoherent effect on both mind and consciousness. When Sachiko Edamura talked about her "change" to Dofu, she often said this: "It's because of you that I became like this, your nasty cell molecules have mixed into my cells!"
