Reborn in Tokyo after picking up Sayu who ran away from home

Chapter 335 Heavy Responsibility and Long Way to Go (4k)

Facing Sayu with a cold attitude, Kato Yusuke never found a chance to talk to him.

Even though he knew it wasn't the other party's fault, he still inevitably felt a little disappointed.

On the one hand, there is Sayu who relies on him, and on the other hand, Sayu who ignores him.

The strong sense of contrast and fragmentation kept circling in my mind, bringing a feeling of groggy and dizziness.

At the same time, it also clearly reminded him of the difference.

Although he knew that the person sitting there was his girlfriend, but to Sayu in this world, he was a complete stranger, so naturally he would not have a good face.

Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke was a little silent for a while.

A class is spent in this torment.

That's it for lunch break.

"Rise and salute."

"goodbye teacher."

The history teacher who packed up the textbooks nodded to everyone, then turned and left the classroom.

Kato Yusuke immediately walked towards the girl, trying to use the next period of time to get in touch with her and establish a relationship.

however……

"Hey, Iwanami-san, Misaki-sensei from Class 1 told you to go find her in the gymnasium.

The news from the door became an obstacle again.

Yusuke pretended not to know about this, and kept walking.

Not to mention that he doesn't know where the gymnasium is, and doesn't know that Misaki teacher, at least for now he wants to talk to the girl first, and the rest can be said later.

But just when he was about to walk to Sayu, a hand stretched out from the side suddenly put his shoulder.

"Iwanami-san, someone is calling you."

A hearty voice sounded from behind.

Turn around and look.

Appearing in front of him was a boy with mid-length hair parted sideways, with a clean face and a smile, exuding the same hearty smell as his voice.

No matter from the appearance or the atmosphere around him, the person in front of him clearly belonged to someone with a high status in the class, but he didn't know him.

While clapping the other person's hand on the shoulder, he asked, "Who are you?"

Hearing this, the boy couldn't help but startled slightly.

Before he opened his mouth to respond, someone next to him took the initiative to intervene.

"Wow, it's a new kind of cold joke to ask Saito-san this kind of question?"

Another boy, who seemed to be a good friend, jokingly gave Saito an elbow in the stomach, in exchange for him saying stop making trouble.

"I'm sorry, Iwanami-san."

Saito, who turned his gaze back, stretched out a hand forward, as if shaking hands.

"Let me introduce myself again. I am Saito from the basketball club. Please give me your advice."

Having said that, a very natural and hearty smile appeared on his face again, which made people feel very kind.

Kato Yusuke nodded, but did not shake hands with him, but turned his head to look forward.

There was no sign of the girl there, and she didn't know where she went.

This made him click his tongue and said, "Sorry, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out, leaving the two boys where they were.

Watching his back as he leaves...

"What's going on, does that kid have any conflicts with you? Saito." The boy with long hair asked.

"I don't think there should be such a thing." Saito silently withdrew his hand and shrugged his shoulders pretending to be free and easy, "Maybe he has such a personality in the first place."

"Hey... Another guy with a dark personality? It's really unbearable."

"Same feeling."

"Hey...whether it's "Princess" or that guy, why is our class full of people like this, they don't fit in at all. "

Saito didn't answer this, but glanced thoughtfully at a certain seat by the window, and then looked at the direction Kato Yusuke left, and couldn't help frowning.

"Speaking of which, this is the second time you have been rejected like this, right? How do you feel~?"

The long-haired boy laughed maliciously, and continued: "And I remember that the transfer student also talked to "Princess", and he still called her name directly, maybe they have already secretly got together? "

"Stop talking, Taniguchi."

"Wow, Saito has a scary face."

"..."

"I know, I know, I don't say anything, so go to dinner together? Partners."

"...It's not in the basketball club, don't use that name."

"Yes...Really, you must have vented your anger on me, right?"

"what are you saying?"

"I didn't say anything~"

……

The gymnasium, in front of the offices of the women's basketball club.

Boom, boom.

"Please come in."

Hearing the voice inside, Kato Yusuke pushed the door open and walked in.

In the room smelling of deodorant spray, a middle-aged woman who looked a little stern was sitting alone at the conference table and cast her gaze over.

"you are?"

"Hello, I'm a student in Mr. Shibata's class. Someone just informed me to come here."

"Shibata-sensei...oh, are you Iwanami?"

Kato Yusuke nodded slightly to express his affirmation, and his eyes fell on the other party.

She has neat short hair that reaches the chin, and wears a dark blue shirt and black long skirt. She looks about 3 or 40 years old, and the slightly raised corners of her slender eyes are sharp and sharp, giving people a sense of rigor.

"Excuse me, are you Teacher Misaki from Class 1?"

"That's right, you already know the specifics, right? I won't say more. In the afternoon, you will come directly to the area of ​​Class 1 as a substitute."

Surely there is no need to play...

Kato Yusuke thought to himself, his eyes flicked over the training plan-like form in the opponent's hand, and then he thought for a while and said, "May I ask you a question?"

"question?"

"I heard that Class 1 needed foreign aid because of a lack of talent."

Misaki-sensei nodded, "Is that so, what's the problem?"

Yusuke continued to ask: "I want to know the number of people in Class 1?"

"Not counting you, there are six people in total."

"so little?"

As if feeling a little displeased with his words, the other party couldn't help frowning slightly, but he still explained.

"These problems shouldn't have existed in the first place, but the ratio of men to women in class 1 was out of balance, and girls couldn't compete, so it became like this."

Saying this, Misaki-sensei let out a sigh and muttered to himself: "Obviously we will never lose in the women's game, but why did we draw the men's basketball..."

Although the voice was small, it was still heard by Kato Yusuke.

His eyes moved slightly, and then he continued to chat with the other party.

Following Teacher Misaki's narration, he also had a clearer understanding of the ins and outs of the whole matter.

In short, it is probably that this school decided to hold a ball skills conference before the summer vacation.

However, Class 1, which is stronger in women's basketball, was unfortunately drawn to Class 3 in the previous draw, and the game was still played in the form of men's basketball.

The impact of this is that it is difficult for class 1 to even get the basic number of participants. In order to allow the main players to have a rotation break in the middle, they have the behavior of borrowing from class 3.

After understanding these things, Kato Yusuke didn't say anything more, and left after greeting Misaki-sensei.

"This Misaki-sensei from Class 1 doesn't seem to want to admit defeat easily..."

Walking on the road leading to the teaching building, Yusuke thought silently.

Then he quickened his pace a little and rushed back to the classroom.

The atmosphere in the class was bustling, and the students with good relationship gathered together, talking and laughing, eating bento, but there was no figure he wanted to see.

I wanted to ask the class about the girl's whereabouts, but when they heard what he wanted to ask, they either said they didn't know, or they responded passively, as if they didn't want to get into trouble.

After a little thought.

Kato Yusuke turned and walked back to the corridor, walked up the stairs, and came to the door leading to the rooftop.

This is the only place where she can think that the other party may appear.

Raise your hand to grab the handle of the metal door and turn it.

With a "click", the metal door opened.

The glare of the sun made him narrow his eyes slightly, and a gust of stuffy air rushed towards his face.

The fluffy clouds float leisurely in the sky, lazy and cozy.

Under the blue sky, two girls were sitting on a bench near the railing on the roof.

Disturbed by the sudden intruder, both women cast their gazes at the same time.

Kato Yusuke showed a smile on his face, as if it was brighter than the sun.

Under the gaze of the other party, he slowly walked towards the two of them.

His eyes fell on the two girls.

In addition to Sayu, whom I had been looking for for a long time, there was a girl with two braids sitting next to her, with some freckles on her face, and a pair of rustic black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"Good afternoon, can I join you?" Yusuke greeted with a smile, and stopped in front of the two women.

Hear this...

"Eh?"

The braided girl stared at him blankly, then lowered her gaze as if she was feeling inferior, and pinched the bento box resting on her lap with both hands, with a look of embarrassment.

In contrast, Sayu's performance was much tougher.

Like a mother animal protecting its cubs, the other party stretched out his hand in front of his friend, stared at him vigilantly, and said, "Excuse me, can you find another place? This place is already full."

"Full?"

Kato Yusuke's eyes fell on the bench, and he was lost in thought about the half position beside the girl, and muttered: "It's okay to squeeze..."

But the next second.

"Full!"

Sayu repeated again, and moved a little to the side, occupying that small space with her body.

"Well, then I'll just sit here."

Yusuke couldn't help but nodded, and simply sat down on the ground cross-legged.

The two women who saw this scene widened their eyes in surprise.

"Huh huh...?"

"Sit here...Wait, what are you thinking?"

The ground scorched by the sun was boiling hot, and the scorching heat was transmitted into the skin through the pants, making Kato Yusuke move around a little uncomfortable, and let out a mutter involuntarily.

"Ah, it's so hot..."

The air was suddenly quiet for two seconds.

Immediately after—

"Pfft...uh, whoop..." The girl with braids suddenly covered her mouth and laughed as if she thought it was extremely funny.

On the other hand, Sayu turned her head slightly with a puzzled expression, switching her gaze between her friend and the boy in front of her, not knowing what to say.

After laughing for a while.

"that……"

The braided girl who seemed to think that someone was harmless asked timidly: "You are Iwanami-san, right? Could you please ask us for something?"

"It's nothing special, Yuko Masaka."

"Eh—? Why... you know my name."

Kato Yusuke shrugged.

"Because you are a kind girl... I want to say that, but in order not to misunderstand Ogiwara-san, let me tell the truth."

Saying this, he turned his gaze aside, with a refreshing smile on his face, "Actually, I want to be friends with Ogiwara-san, is that okay?"

Yuko Masaka blinked, and also turned to look at her friend.

Seeing the other party also had a surprised and blank expression on his face, as if he didn't expect to hear such words from other people.

"Why?" Sayu asked, "It shouldn't be good for you to contact us."

"That's not true."

Yusuke shook his head and said word by word: "For me, there is nothing more important than you here, so are you willing to agree to my request?"

His voice was very soft, but it was as gentle and touching as a whisper between lovers, with sincerity and hope from the heart.

Facing such words as a confession of love.

Not only Masaka Yuko, who was listening in, blushed slightly, but even Sayu's face was in a daze.

Squeak, squeak.

The cicadas chirped and a strong wind blew.

The emerald green leaves swayed and rustled in the hazy afternoon wind.

The clean white shirt, the bangs blown by the wind, the boy smiling in the sun... It's like the midsummer coming ahead of time, colorful and gorgeous.

Staring at the scene in front of him, Masaka Yuko couldn't help opening his mouth, wanting to say something.

only……

"Let's go, Kid."

"what……?"

Before she could react, Sayu took her arm and pretended to be anxious to leave.

Seeing this, Yuko glanced at Kato Yusuke subconsciously, and saw the young man smiling wryly, his handsome face looked a little sad, which made people feel unbearable.

Then he looked back and asked, "But it's not good to leave Iwanami-san here like this...?"

"Masaka-san is right, and in order to find you, I haven't eaten yet." Saying this, Yusuke stood up from the ground with a bitter expression on his face.

"It's so pitiful..." Yuko murmured, and after hesitating for a moment, he pushed out his bento, "Well, I haven't eaten this one yet, if Iwanami-san doesn't mind..."

"Thank you for your kindness, Masaka-san, but there's no need." Kato Yusuke shook his head, and naturally took a step forward, "My stomach is more used to Ogiwara-san's cooking."

Finished.

He took a bite out of the tamagoyaki directly from under the chopsticks in the girl's hand, and calmly threw it into his mouth and ate it.

"good to eat."

Someone murmured a word of praise, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him.

Yuko Masaka's eyes widened suddenly, and subconsciously let out a small exclamation.

"Ah... I ate it."

There was silence for more than ten seconds.

Until Sayu wrinkled her face almost in disgust, and broke the silence with words.

"Pervert! Let's go, Kid."

"Huh? Ah, um... Got it, wait a minute, don't be so fast."

boom!
There was the banging of metal doors behind him.

Looking up at the sky, the sky is as blue as the sea.

Recalling the girl's appearance just now, Kato Yusuke couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth slightly, and said to himself: "So my girlfriend is so hard to chase..."

……

　Thanks for the reward of [Where there is Tsundere, there is me].
