255 It's polite to address someone by her name

Her body is aching all over. The bag feels too heavy on her shoulders. She takes short and heavy steps on the side of the road. Why did her car have to die in the middle of nowhere when she was coming back from a crime scene? She can't hail a cab. She can't get a signal from her phone. 

Suddenly, a car stops near her. She keeps walking. It could be one of those annoying men mistaking her for a damsel in distress. She's in distress, but she's not someone who would spread her legs because they helped her. Besides, it's not a good idea to get into anyone's car.

"Iori's cousin!" 

Chiyo turns around when she hears a voice that she didn't want to hear ever, especially in this circumstance. She blinks when she sees Kawamoto Ren stepping out of the car. Why is his hair blue?

She snaps out of a daze when she sees him walking toward her. She hasn't forgotten the embarrassing things that she did around a year ago. She takes long strides away from him.
