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

Chapter 368
Time passed peacefully...

Since that day, Kato Yusuke has never appeared in front of the girl again, and Izumi, who was immersed in loss, did not call the police.

Sayu's life has returned to its usual calm, going back and forth between school and home every day, and going out with Yuko on weekends.

Kato Yusuke rented a cubicle for rest in an Internet cafe near Asahikawa Station.

Without being known by anyone, he sneaked into the Ogiwara family's bungalow a few times and found something in the girl's room.

Then he went to the bank alone, and when he came out again, there was only 10 deposits left in the passbook.

In this way, a week passed in a daze, and the time came to the night of September 9th.

The moon hangs high overhead, and the night sky is dotted with stars.

In the air filled with a touch of coolness, there is the fragrance of autumn night.

At ten o'clock in the evening in the countryside, people on the road have already entered a certain house, and even the sound of cars is sparse.

Half of the people have fallen asleep.

In this blank time zone, Kato Yusuke, wearing a black sportswear, sat alone on the roof of Ogiwara's house, meditating.

Many memories kept flashing and disappearing in front of my eyes.

He is eager to give Sayu happiness, and hopes that the other party will no longer suffer from misfortune and suffering.

So is Sayu happy now?

Through the past few days of secret observation, it seems that this is indeed the case.

Today's girls are determined and courageous.

Dare to stand up for your friends, have a protective heart, be strong and confident.

It seemed to gather his best expectations for her, which was completely opposite to the crybaby who always relied on him, needed his protection, always had scars in his heart, and shed tears from time to time.

Surrounded by the protection of friends, the care of family members, being liked and admired by others.

Everything around the girl is fine, but there is no sign of him.

It's not that he didn't think about taking Sayu away forcibly, and then slowly figured out a way to tell her everything.

However, after the impulse subsided, I immediately realized that this was a dead end.

The other party neither trusted him nor liked him, and could even be called abhorrent.

Regardless of these things, even if you really take Sayu to Tokyo, let her stay away from family and friends, and start anew with him in a strange city, is this considered happiness?

'Aside from a one-sided love, what can I give her? '——This idea is deeply rooted in Yusuke's mind, cold and rational.

So how about going without Sayu?What he gave up was his ego.

He can't selfishly think that being with himself is happiness, and vice versa is unhappiness.

Only two people who go in both directions can be happy. Imposing one's own thoughts and feelings on each other is at best a self-satisfying and selfish act...

Kato Yusuke absent-mindedly stretched out his hand towards the bright white moon in the sky, as if he was guessing the distance to himself.

He thought he could walk to the end, but when he stopped and turned around, he saw a desert in front of him.

There was something missing in him, a hole that couldn't be filled.

Can't ask for it, can't give up.

The two emotions of rationality and sensibility are constantly colliding in my heart.

All the gifts of fate had already been priced in secret. He healed the wound in the girl's heart and filled the void in her heart.

Instead, the void was transferred onto himself.

Because he likes it, he hopes that the girl will be surrounded by people, and that the road the girl walks will be full of flowers and people's voices.

Judging from the results, he did get his wish.

However, there was a heart-wrenching emotion choked in his heart, which could not be eliminated no matter what.

He withdrew his hand dejectedly, his body curled up, exuding the loneliness and loneliness of being alone.

"system……"

"..."

"Give me back my Sayu..." Yusuke buried his face on a bent knee, and murmured in a voice squeezed from his throat: "Give me back that crybaby, follower... ..."

"..."

The cold moonlight shone on him, and the surroundings were always quiet.

Buzzing, the phone also vibrated lonely.

This time, Kato Yusuke chose to answer.

"You finally answered the phone, Kato-san." The cold and sexy voice of Yujie came from the receiver, with a hint of anxiety and relief.

"..."

"Kato-san...?"

"……what."

"……What’s wrong with you?"

"...Is there something wrong, Shiba-senpai?"

Shi Yu on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and his voice became calmer.

"What I want to say is what I want to ask... Huh, but forget it now, where are you now?"

Kato Yusuke spit out two words in a low voice: "Asahikawa."

"……When are you coming back?"

"..."

"What? If you encounter any unhappy things, you can talk to my sister."

"..."

"Although I'm very tired from rushing the manuscript, and I also have to juggle someone's script. Basically, I've been up all night for two weeks. This body is about to be destroyed by you, but listen to the lovely junior. Trouble... I still have some spare time, okay?"

"Sister Shiyu..."

"Ok?"

"...Do you remember the name Sayu?"

"Kato-san?"

"Ah."

"When chatting with the opposite sex, it is very uninteresting to mention another woman."

"..."

"So? What happened to that woman?"

Kato Yusuke was slightly taken aback, and immediately raised his voice: "Do you remember?"

A brief silence.

"...How about, is that something I should remember?"

The excitement that had just surged suddenly subsided.

Kato Yusuke paused and said, "...No, it's fine."

"Really? Sorry, I don't pay much attention to the people around me, except for a few."

Shiyu teased with a little deep meaning, and then asked: "So, when do you plan to come back? Mr. Nakamura said that your vacation is over?"

After finishing speaking, he added: "By the way, even if you are the president of the student council, you may be repeated or expelled if you are absent for a long time."

Kato Yusuke was silent for a long time, and the other party listened quietly.

"...I will go back tomorrow."

"Have you bought your tickets yet?"

"..."

"AM or PM?"

"...I'll figure it out."

"Is that so, I see... Click, click... Then that's it, good night, Kato-san."

"Ah."

The two ended the call.

Kato Yusuke put the phone in his pocket, took a deep breath, let the cold air enter the lung circulation, and then exhaled another breath.

He lightly supported the platform with his hands, and in the process of falling, he grabbed the small platform of the outer window on the second floor with his backhand, making his figure hang in mid-air.

Then he pressed the window shut with the other hand and quietly pushed it aside.

While exerting force with both hands, the feet are also kicked against a solid wall.

The whole person got in through the open window.

Tick, tick, tick.

In the quiet bedroom, there are only the sound of the pointer moving and the sound of peaceful breathing.

Kato Yusuke took off his shoes, stepped down from the window sill, and came to the bed.

First, he glanced at the girl who was sleeping with the doll on the bed, then turned his gaze to the bedside table, and landed on the water glass on it.

He gently raised his palm, and with a movement of his mind, a white pill appeared in his palm out of thin air.

[Qi and blood medicine]: strengthen the body, activate vitality, and have a significant effect on improving the quality of the human body.

Kato Yusuke stood by the bed, crushed the pills into powder and sprinkled them into the water cup, then picked up the cup and shook it gently to make it completely dissolve in the water.

According to the frequency of once every two days, he has done the same thing three times, and also put three qi and blood medicines separately into the vitamins that the girl usually takes.

Because the shapes are all similar, if you don't observe carefully, you won't find any abnormalities.

After doing this, he came to the desk again, reached into his pocket, and took out a modified pendant necklace from it.

The pendant necklace is composed of two parts. The chain is a thin platinum necklace, and the pendant part is a small transparent cinnabar bottle, which contains the [Walking Medicine] rewarded by the mission.

Kato Yusuke put the pendant on the desk, then reached for the paper and pen, and wrote a line on the paper - "When you are in danger, eat it."

Because I wasn't sure about the girl's reaction.

He hesitated for a while, but in the end he didn't leave his signature and phone number on it, but just put it together with the pendant necklace.

Yusuke let out a breath of burning breath from his nasal cavity, but did not make a sound, like a shadow blending into the drooping night.

He raised his feet again and returned to the bed, quietly watching Sayu who was soundly asleep.

The bright moonlight shone on the girl's face, gently delineating her outline. The thick and slender black eyelashes attached to the double eyelids, like the grass growing by the brook, were scattered and reflected on the fair cheeks.

"Um……"

The cool night wind blew in from the window and into the room, causing Sayu to groan, and stretched out one foot from under the quilt, hanging on the side of the bed.

Kato Yusuke bent down silently, knelt down on one knee, put back that tender little foot, and helped her cover the quilt.

Then he turned his gaze back to the girl's face.

At this time...

"Student Izumi..."

An inaudible murmur came from Sayu's mouth, and thunder exploded in Yusuke's ears.

His movements froze for an instant.

Just staring blankly, with red eyes and trembling lips, he wanted to raise his hand to touch the girl's cheek, but he didn't dare.

In the end, he just silently got up from the ground, with a bit of frustration, turned around and walked up to the window platform, and jumped out after putting on his shoes.

Go through the iron gate in the yard and come to the street.

Under the sky full of stars, the boy kept walking westward, crossing the morning and evening line, crossing the date line, as if he wanted to go back to the original day.

The footsteps were heavy but he didn't look back.

And in the room on the second floor, Sayu also muttered the second half of the sentence.

"...I'm sorry, we're friends."

……

At 9 am the next day, Asahikawa Airport.

"Kato... classmate...?"

Kato Yusuke, who came here alone, met an unexpected person.

"...Shiyu-senpai?" He asked in a low voice, his dull eyes fluctuated slightly, and his eyes fell on the tall figure in a long brown trench coat in front of him, puzzled by this sudden meeting.

A head of black and beautiful long hair is soft and loose, with a white headband on her head, and a bit of tiredness on her beautiful face.

Holding a cup of hot coffee in her hand, the girl was sitting on a bench next to the security checkpoint, her long and slender legs stretched forward, and she stepped on a pair of small black leather shoes.

A pair of wine-red eyes fixedly fixed on him, and their eyes fell on his tired face and pale hair, with a look of astonishment and disbelief on his face.

That emotion did not come from why I saw him here, but a cognitive obstacle to his current status, as if carefully comparing it with something in my own memory.

After an unknown period of silence.

The astonishment on Shiyu's face was put away little by little, and then transformed into another inexplicable emotion, like a little distressed, and pretended to be calm, stood up from the seat, and walked towards him .

"Oh...that really surprised me. Did you dye your hair? Kato-san."

Kato Yusuke responded with silence, and asked hoarsely, "Why?"

"Yes, probably because I just wanted to come here to collect materials for my novel, so I booked a flight to Sapporo last night, and took a bus to Asahikawa to inspect it." Shiyu replied nonchalantly.

Kato Yusuke nodded, didn't say anything, just walked to the self-service check-in machine and printed the boarding pass.

Then he raised his foot to go to the security check passage, Shi Yu always followed behind him.

"Hmm... have you grown a little taller? Compared to the last time I saw you, you seem to be taller... about 5 centimeters, maybe 183 centimeters?"

"Also, what's the matter with the clothes on your body? Is it deliberately dressed in this street style? To be honest, this style doesn't suit you."

"Sister."

"Ok?"

"Why are you following me?"

"As I said, I came here just to collect materials. Now that it's over, I should go back."

Kato Yusuke came to the boarding gate, found an empty corner nearby and sat down, and Shiwa also sat beside him.

He raised his eyes numbly and cast a questioning gaze.

"There is only this flight to Tokyo in the morning, so I will take this flight too."

Kato Yusuke then lowered his eyes again and stopped talking.

Half an hour later, the plane began to check in.

The two walked into the boarding bridge one after the other and entered the plane.

Just when Yusuke was about to go to the economy class according to his own seat, someone pulled his sports jacket from behind.

"Hey, Kato-san."

Shi Yu suddenly said: "Let's sit here, I bought two tickets."

Kato Yusuke paused, glanced at the business class seat beside him, said nothing, then walked forward again, and sat down at a window seat.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in a cheap suit walked over. After confirming the boarding pass in his hand and the seat sign above it, he was determined.

But just when he was about to sit down beside Yusuke...

"Excuse me, that's my friend sitting there. Can we exchange seats? Uncle." Sister Yu rang with a little indifference and laziness.

"Uncle?? I said little girl..."

"I'm willing to exchange two business class tickets, what's your preference?"

The uncle swallowed the complaints in his mouth, and coughed lightly: "Of course, uncle, I like helping you young people the most."

After speaking, he took the receipt and left quickly.

So...

Shi Yu naturally sat down next to someone.

(The role of Izumi is just to misunderstand the hero, and there will be no interaction, so don't misinterpret it.)
