21st Century Necromancer-Chapter 657 - 653: Offering Earnest Attention (Please Subscribe, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
"Good morning, Doctor Koyamaki!" In the morning, as Kaji Hideki saw Kohinata Kaori coming to work, he instantly stood up from his seat and greeted her eagerly.
While Kaji Hideki was greeting Kohinata Kaori, another male doctor quickly approached and offered her breakfast, "Doctor Koyamaki, this is a limited-edition cake from a famous Tokyo cake shop. I went out of my way to buy it for you this morning. Do you like to eat cake for breakfast?"
"Ah! I've tried several times to buy cakes from this shop but never managed to get one, thank you!" Kohinata Kaori, seeing the label on the bag was from the shop she liked, was very happy, took the cake from the male doctor and expressed her gratitude, "Before I went to the United Kingdom, I already loved the cakes from this shop, but I didn't expect that they have become even harder to purchase nowadays. You've really gone out of your way to get this in the morning. Thank you so much."
"It's no trouble at all, my house is near that shop, so it was on my way out in the morning," the male doctor said, trying to hide his delight while politely conversing, and then took the opportunity to offer further, "If you like, I can bring one for you every day."
"Ah! That'll be unnecessary, I couldn't possibly trouble you every day! Oh right, how much is the cake? Let me give you the money," Kohinata Kaori, quickly realizing what the male doctor was hinting at, was neither the type to reject people from afar nor someone who couldn't say no.
Having said that, she took out her wallet and insisted on giving the male doctor the money for the cake.
Watching Kohinata Kaori happily returning to her desk to enjoy the cake, Kaji Hideki nudged the still dumbfounded male doctor holding the money from Kohinata, and said with a bit of schadenfreude, "Struck out, huh? Wooing a girl isn't that easy!"
"You're not much better, are you? Doctor Koyamaki didn't even pay you any mind," the male doctor retorted unwillingly and put away the money that Kohinata had given him.
As the two bantered, Yu Chen walked in from outside with a medical record in hand.
"Professor!" "Professor!" The two previously bickering men hastily greeted Yu Chen, as did the other people in the office.
Yu Chen nodded slightly, replied with a "Good morning," and then went over to Kohinata Kaori with the medical record.
Seeing Yu Chen approaching, Kohinata Kaori quickly put down her cake and greeted him, "Good morning, senior brother!"
"Cake? Kaori, you've got a nice breakfast!" Yu Chen glanced at the cake on Kohinata's desk and smiled before handing over the medical record to her, "This is one of my patients today. You study oncology and healing, right? This patient's case is very typical. Take a good look at the medical record; I need you to be my assistant."
"Yes, senior brother!" Kohinata Kaori took the medical record from Yu Chen, immediately responding with vigor, clearly excited to have some work to do.
Yu Chen nodded slightly, smiled at Kohinata Kaori, and though she was his junior sister, he made sure not to overdo it with special care for her, assigning her as his assistant was not only a good way to train her but also convenient for providing her with some guidance.
However, just as Yu Chen was about to leave the office, he suddenly remembered something and said to Kohinata Kaori, "Oh, by the way, Naoki will be coming to Tokyo next week. I've already arranged a time with him. Let's all get together then!"
"Is Second Senior Brother coming to Tokyo? That's great, I haven't seen him in such a long time. When I called him before, he even said he'd take me horseback riding in Kumamoto!" Kohinata Kaori was also excited. Though making phone calls is now very convenient, and one can stay in touch from halfway across the world whenever desired, it still doesn't compare to actually meeting in person.
Seeing Kohinata Kaori so full of life, Yu Chen just smiled and said, "Naoki's family has many horses. When you visit, you could not only ride them but eat as well. Speaking of which, I've heard Naoki mention it so many times, I have yet to try Kumamoto's horse sashimi!"

"You're making me look forward to it too!" Kohinata Kaori suddenly smiled as well.
"Alright, hurry up and finish your breakfast, and come to my office after you've reviewed the medical records," Yu Chen said before finally leaving the office.
Seeing Yu Chen leave, Kaji Hideki and the earlier male doctor exchanged glances, both seeing the same dejection in each other's eyes.
Clearly, for the two men intent on pursuing Kohinata Kaori, Yu Chen was like a towering mountain before them.
It's not that Yu Chen harbored any special feelings towards Kohinata Kaori; everyone in the hospital knew that Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi had a very good marital relationship. But since Kohinata Kaori was Yu Chen's junior sister, if they harassed her or made her feel annoyed, and she mentions it to Yu Chen, they would be in big trouble.
For the two men seeking Kohinata Kaori's affection, this was not good news.
The Glasses Doctor, watching the two self-pitying men, shook his head helplessly before walking over to Kohinata Kaori and apologizing in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Doctor Kohinata, for those two embarrassing guys causing you trouble. However, they don't have any bad intentions, please don't mention this to the professor."
"This... Dr. Moto," Kohinata Kaori glanced at the name tag on the Glasses Doctor before continuing, "Don't worry, I understand what they're thinking. Even if I tell my senior brother about it, he'd just laugh it off."
"It's very kind of you. Being the professor's junior sister and a top disciple of Professor Kube, if you complained to the professors about us, we small timers would really suffer," said the Glasses Doctor with a smile that bore a hint of ingratiating intent.
Seeing the Glasses Doctor speaking this way, Kohinata Kaori assured him, "Since you've said so much, then alright, I won't tell my senior brother or teacher. But..."
At this point, Kohinata Kaori looked at the two men who were still wallowing in self-pity, thought for a moment, and then said, "They'll have to treat me to a meal. That's not too much to ask, right?"
"Of course not!" The Glasses Doctor quickly nodded his head. For these practicing doctors, treating someone to a meal was indeed a trivial matter. Whatever Kohinata Kaori wanted to eat, wherever she wanted to go, it was no problem at all.
"I heard there's a new French restaurant in the Meguro District that's quite good. The chef used to work in a Three-star Michelin in France. Have them book a table for me, this weekend, I'll be going alone." Kohinata Kaori stated her terms.
