Chapter 30 Apartment Emergency
Yukiko Fujimine's parents are both well-known Japanese actors. In order to avoid being harassed by paparazzi, the family chose to live in a high-end apartment in 1-chome. There are security guards guarding the door of the apartment building 24 hours a day, and there is a police station not far away.

No wonder when I heard Hayashi Xiuyi say that there had been more than a dozen thefts in Beika Town recently, Fujimine Yukiko didn't care.

After sending the girl to the door of the apartment building, Lin Xiuyi prepared to leave.

"Hey, come in and sit down," Fujimine Yukiko said, looking at the half-wet trouser legs of Hayashi Shuichi. "Blow your pants dry before you go. Be careful... Achoo!"

On their way back, the wind and rain were much stronger. Although Lin Xiuyi was holding an umbrella, his lower body was still soaked by the rain.

As for Yukiko Fujimine, she was even more miserable. She was soaked all the way.

"It's over, I might really catch a cold now," the girl said, rolling her eyes at Lin Xiuyi, "It's all because of those people who wouldn't lend me their coats!"

"If I gave you my coat, we'd both be catching a cold," Lin Xiu said calmly, "It's okay if you're sick. You can rest at home this weekend. I still have to work."

"Yes, yes, you always make sense!" Fujimine Yukiko said unhappily, "I have some ginger at home. Drink some ginger soup and dry your pants before leaving."

Lin Xiuyi thought about it carefully and realized that it was raining so heavily tonight, so there would be no chance of any customers at the izakaya.

Instead of going back in the rain now, it would be better to go to Fujimine's house to rest for a while, drink something to warm up, and then return when the wind and rain subside.

Seeing Lin Xiu nod, Fujimine Yukiko walked to the door of the apartment building, entered the password into the access control system, and opened the door.

Lin Xiuyi followed her in. Next to the corridor behind the gate was the security room, where two security guards were on duty.

When Fujimine Yukiko passed by, the older security guard greeted the girl.

"Yukiko, why are you back so late tonight? Who's the person behind you..."

"He's a classmate of mine," the girl explained quickly, noticing the security guard's ambiguous look. "It was raining so hard tonight, I asked him to take shelter at my house."

"Really?" The security guard was clearly unconvinced. "Young people are still the best. Think back to when I was in school..."

Just as the two were talking, a sharp alarm sounded outside the apartment building. An ambulance stopped at the door, followed by a doctor in a white coat and a mask, and two nurses also wearing masks pushing a stretcher.

"Open the door quickly, someone in your apartment is having a heart attack and needs emergency treatment!"

Hearing it was a heart attack, the security guard didn't hesitate and quickly opened the door. "Excuse me, which family called the emergency number?"

"Tomoko Nishikawa of 1009."

After the doctor gave a brief reply, he took two nurses and pushed the stretcher towards the elevator deep in the corridor.

There were two elevators there, and the doctor pressed the up button on the one on the left.

"Let me go and take a look," the younger security guard offered. "Maybe I can help."

"Alright," the security guard replied, "You go ahead, I'll just guard the gate."

The taller, younger security guard ran out of the duty room and caught up with the three doctors.

After nearly half a minute, the elevator came down and four people pushed the stretcher into the elevator together.

"Tomoko Nishikawa from 1009?" Fujimine Yukiko asked uncertainly, "Is she the Mrs. Nishikawa who has a bad temper and is always arguing with others?"

"That should be her," the security guard nodded. "Mrs. Nishikawa has a bad temper. I heard she's had a falling out with her son and daughter. Usually, no one comes to visit her. Anyway, I hope she's safe this time."

After chatting for a few more words, Lin Xiuyi said goodbye to the security guard and walked towards the elevator.

There were two elevators in the corridor, the one on the left stopped at the 10th floor, and the one on the right stopped at the 3rd floor. Fujimine Yukiko raised her hand and pressed the up button on the elevator on the right.

"Are the spaces inside the two elevators of different sizes?" Lin Xiuyi asked.

"Yeah," the girl nodded, "the elevator on the left is indeed much larger."

Lin Xiuyi frowned and looked around.

"What's wrong?" Fujimine Yukiko asked in confusion, "Is there a problem?"

At this time, the elevator on the right has come down.
"Forget it, I must be too suspicious," Lin Xiuyi shook his head and followed Fujimine Yukiko into the elevator.

"My home is also on the tenth floor," the girl sighed in the elevator. "I often see Mrs. Nishikawa in the elevator. She always likes to show off with a lot of expensive jewelry. She always quarrels with other people in the apartment because of the jewelry. I hope she's okay this time."

It was raining heavily outside tonight, and there were obviously not many people using the elevator. The elevator quickly reached the tenth floor.

Hayashi Shuichi followed Fujimine Yukiko out of the elevator. On the left side of the corridor were apartments 1001 to 1005, and on the right side of the corridor were apartments 1006 to 1010.

Yukiko Fujimine's home is in Apartment 1002 on the left. The tall young security guard who was seen at the gate before is now standing at the door of Apartment 1009 on the right.

"Excuse me, how is Mrs. Nishikawa doing?" the girl asked while standing in the middle of the corridor.

"I don't know," the young security guard shook his head. "The doctor is trying to save him. Don't worry, he will be fine."

Yukiko Fujimine nodded, walked to the door of apartment 1002 on the left, took out the key and opened the door.

"Come in," the girl urged when she saw Lin Xiuyi still standing outside.

"Wait a moment," Lin Xiuyi said without turning back, still looking towards Apartment 1009, "Let me see what's going on over there."

"I can't wait any longer," Fujimine Yukiko complained, turned around and walked quickly back to her bedroom to change her wet clothes.

Lin Xiuyi stood at the door and waited for another two or three minutes, and saw the tall young security guard walk into room 1009.

A moment later, the doctor and two nurses came out pushing a stretcher.

Strange, where is the security guard?
Lin Xiuyi was a little confused.

The doctor and two nurses pushed a stretcher to the middle of the corridor to wait for the elevator. Lin Xiuyi glanced at the stretcher. Mrs. Nishikawa seemed to be in a coma. She was covered with a white sheet, with only her head and feet exposed.

Her face was facing the other side and her hair was loose, so her features could not be seen clearly.

When Lin Xiuyi's eyes swept over Mrs. Xichuan's exposed feet, he was suddenly stunned.

He quickly turned around and walked into the apartment, found Fujimine Yukiko's bedroom, and knocked on the door.

In the room, because Lin Xiuyi was there, the girl was embarrassed to take a shower, so she could only take off all her clothes and wipe her body wet by the rain with a dry towel to avoid catching a cold.

When she heard the knock on the door, she was startled and remembered that she didn't seem to have locked the bedroom door when she came in just now!

If Lin Xiuyi suddenly pushed the door open, wouldn't it be...

Thinking of this, she quickly grabbed the quilt on the bed and wrapped it around herself. Then she asked nervously, "What are you doing?"
