At around 6 o'clock in the evening, Junhei Matsumoto sent Qingran back to He Zong's apartment safely.

Jizi followed Qing Anran and got off the car without a sound.

Although Junhei Matsumoto is a silly person on weekdays, his mind is very enlightened at this time.

He had expected that Kiko would get off the bus here, so he didn't add anything to it and ask too much.

However, when the two got out of the car and were about to leave, Junhei Matsumoto suddenly remembered that the extra fee promised to Qing Anran had not been given to him.

Then he rolled the car window down, poked out his fat head, and shouted at Qing Anran.

"Mr. Qing, please wait!"

Qing Anran did not walk far away. When she heard Matsumoto Junpei calling him, she walked back quickly.

"Mr. Matsumoto, is there anything else?"

"Please wait for me!"

Junhei Matsumoto tilted his body, opened the passenger's drawer with great effort, and took out an envelope from it.

It was a kraft envelope, bulging and there was no writing on the cover.

Junhei Matsumoto handed the envelope to Qing Anran and said politely: "This is the money I promised you earlier. It's not much, so it's a pity."

"Mr. Matsumoto, you have taken good care of me." Qing Anran frowned and refused: "We can't help Liang Tai's affairs, we really can't get the money."

"Mr. Qing, don't refuse." Matsumoto Junhei smiled silly, "There are still opportunities for cooperation in the future. I hope Mr. Qing will take care of him more at that time."

After Matsumoto Junhei insisted, Qing Anran took the envelope away.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Qing Anran was a little hungry, and there happened to be a ramen restaurant on the side of the road.

The name of this store is Yile Ramen, and it is a good store.

The noodles in his house are very strong and the soup is very strong. The sugar-hearted eggs are also used to cook eggs.

Not only that, after he came to this world, he also ate his first meal here, so he had a special liking for his family.

As usual, Qing Anran sat near the window, placing her backpack and umbrella aside.

The next step is to order food quietly.

"Boss, family-friendly ramen plus noodles!"

However, today is a little different because there is a noisy guy sitting opposite him.

Kiko is like a child who has never seen the world, looking extremely excited.

Qing Anran is not a ghost, so he does not understand their lives.

Because I don't understand, I'm curious.

Especially, I was curious whether they needed to eat.

"Miss Nishino, do you need to have a meal too?"

Although there were no customers in the store, Qing Anran still kept his voice low, for fear of causing misunderstandings.

Kiko also understood Qing Anran's concerns, so she did it as usual, approached him and whispered: "We also need to eat, and we also have to eat two kinds of meals."

Qing Anran frowned, saying that she didn't understand very much.

He only knew how many meals he had a day, and it was the first time he heard that there were different types of meals.

Speaking of the issue of eating, Kiko suddenly put on a face with embarrassment.

He pointed to her belly, and then to her head.

"Sir, you don't know that we need to fill our stomachs, but also our heads, which is so miserable."

"How much does it mean to fill your head?" Qing Anran felt that she heard something strange and guessed: "You can't say it's spiritual food, right?"

Jizi did not deny Qing Anran's understanding, but did not affirm it.

"Sir, it's not wrong to insist on saying it's spiritual food."

"It's just that it's not the kind of spiritual food that you read books and newspapers, but something else that you can't see."

"For example, human fear, or other emotions."

After Jizi's explanation, Qing Anran roughly understood a little.

In other words, on the basis of consuming food, ghosts also need to consume human emotions as their spiritual food.

Qing Anran remembers that there are often monsters in movies that regard other people's fears as food, which seem similar in principle.

Thinking of those movies, Qing Anran suddenly teased: "Miss Nishino, when you come out to scare people, do you also say some lines like 'The more you are afraid, the stronger I am'?"

When Qing Anran spoke, she deliberately learned the tone of those mischievous men in the movie.

I didn't expect to learn very well.

Jizi directly said to him: "Sir, you seem to be a pervert when you say this..."

Qing Anran smiled and didn't say much.

The ramen has been served, and Kiko has large portions of ramen with ten ingredients, including pork cartilage, saury, tempura, sugar-boiled eggs, crab sticks, and sauce-sauce radish.

Qing Anran ordered it much simpler. Only a small portion of pig cartilage was added to a regular ramen.

Kiko tasted very delicious. She tasted ramen, put tooth marks on all the ingredients one after another, and took a sip of the noodle soup, looking satisfied.

"By the way, Miss Nishino, do you usually eat alone?"

It was actually unintentional to ask such a question Qing Anran.

However, this was really uncomfortable for Kiko to hear this.

Kiko buried her head in the ramen and ate the noodles in small mouthfuls.

After a while, he whispered:

"Sir, can you lend me your phone?"

"Yeah, OK."

Seeing that Ji Zi was feeling a little depressed, Qing Anran didn't care about anything else, so she unlocked the phone and handed it over.

"Miss Nishino, am I saying the wrong thing?"

"No." Kiko muttered in a low voice, still lowering her head.

Then, I stroked a few times on the screen and pointed it with my fingers, as if I was typing.

Soon, Kiko returned the phone.

However, she also pressed the he key to turn off the screen.

"Sir, let's watch it after dinner."

Kiko spoke less and less, and she even cried.

Qing Anran put down the chopsticks, sucked a few tissues, and gently placed them under Kiko's eyes. She neither wiped away her tears nor took her hands away, but just stayed like that.

Why did Jizi cry and why did he borrow a mobile phone? Qing Anran has already guessed a rough idea.

When I woke up the mobile phone screen, Qing Anran saw that the website search engines were full of legends about "Riding Girl".

Now, Qing Anran completely understood.

The Nishino Kiko in front of her is actually the so-called urban legend, and it is precisely because of her appearance that even other ghosts are unwilling to have dinner with her.

I guess I have lived a lonely life these years.

Ji Zi found that after Qing Anran finished looking at his phone, she stopped talking, so she took the tissue from his hand and wiped away her tears.

"I'm sorry, my lord, it has affected your appetite..."

"It's better for me to leave."

Jizi wanted to get up, but was pulled by Qing Anran.

Qing Anran pressed Kiko on her seat, but stood up.

He walked to the uncle who was ramen and said sincerely: "Uncle, I'm really sorry, my friend is a little excited. I'm also asking you to make a new family-friendly ramen."

Qing Anran has been eating in this restaurant for a day or two. The uncle is also very familiar with him. He waved his hand and smiled and said, "Okay, I understand, hurry up and comfort the girls."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

When Qing Anran came back with the ramen, Ji Zi asked inexplicably: "Sir, why... I ordered another ramen?"

Although she had tried very hard not to cry, she still couldn't help sobbing when she spoke.

Qing Anran did not answer immediately, pushed the newly made ramen in front of her, and brought the original bowl to her.

He spoke only after finishing these things.

"Miss Nishino, eat this bowl."

After Qing Anran finished speaking, she had already started to eat the remaining bowl of family-friendly ramen that Kiko had.
