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

Chapter 371 The girl who came to the door

Ding dong, ding dong~
Boom, boom.

Kato Yusuke was awakened by a doorbell and knocking.

He slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was the familiar white ceiling.

Ding dong ding dong, ding dong ding dong~
Boom, boom, boom!
The doorbell and knocking continued, with a hint of impatience.

12 points.

Casually glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, Kato Yusuke rubbed his eyes with his hands, sat up from the bed, then got up and walked outside.

Boom, boom.

In the process of walking, I accidentally kicked the low table, which made the dishes left on it last night jump up, and the rice bowl was knocked upside down on the carpet with a "poof".

He turned a blind eye to this, just came to the entrance and opened the door halfway.

The bright sunlight poured in from the gap between the door and the door frame in an instant, causing him to raise a hand to cover his eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked in a dull voice:

"……Who?"

"—Wow!? Out-appeared?"

At first, a somewhat rash, but very pleasant voice sounded.

Then another slightly cold, yet sexy voice rang out.

"Phew, what are you surprised about? This is Kato-san's home. Is there something wrong with him appearing here?"

"I'm not surprised!... No, I'm surprised not because of this reason, but because of the color of his hair! Kasumigaoka Shiwa——!"

"Well, I don't deny that, although I'm a bit annoyed at the fact that we reached an agreement with you, Sawamura."

Kato Yusuke bluffed his eyes, and the blurred vision gradually became clear.

There are two colors, one black and one gold.

The first is a deep black.

A head of extremely feminine long black hair is gently loosened, the front section reaches to the chest, and the back reaches to the waist. The deep color seems to be absorbed by the surrounding sunlight, which is so beautiful that it makes people feel emotional.

The uneven figure is also very tall, and the majestic part of the chest strongly asserts its own sense of existence. Combined with the slightly indifferent beautiful face, it exudes an aura that repels people thousands of miles away.

——It was Kasumigaoka Shiwa who went to Hokkaido to collect materials yesterday.

Followed by bright gold.

A head of lustrous blond hair is elegantly tied into a ponytail on both sides of the head. Although it is bathed in the sun, it exudes a unique and unique luster, as if even the sun cannot conceal its spirituality, and it is so beautiful that it is breathtaking.

The petite and exquisite figure is very slender, but it is full of sweetness like carefully crafted whipped cream. With the slightly juvenile delicate face, it is like an angel who has gathered the love of heaven.

——It was Eriri, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

The two were standing at the door, one on the left and the other on the right, arguing endlessly.

"Since you are unhappy with me, why do you have the cheek to follow me!"

"What a coincidence, Sawamura-san. I want to ask this question now too."

"You are too late, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu. You dark woman who is dissatisfied with desire!"

"I do have a dark personality, but I think my personality is more straightforward than yours."

"Why don't you deny the part about your desire and dissatisfaction!"

"I don't need to tell you about that kind of thing."

"Eh?"

"Sneaking in when the hero is empty, this is a flag-planting plot for the heroine, but what are you doing here? Sawamura."

"How could it be possible for you to do that! Then explain that it was you who slipped the tongue? And you even asked for leave to see him!"

"Ah, I went to school well, but I just left early. Don't you do the same?"

"It's different!"

Kato Yusuke interrupted them, and asked in an indifferent tone: "...you guys, what's the matter?"

Although the voice was not loud, it managed to attract the attention of the two of them.

"Is there anything wrong..." Ying Lili was a little dumbfounded at first, and then immediately said angrily.

"—I should ask you this. You mean today is Tuesday, right? Why are you staying at home, and you look like you just woke up! You're obviously not the kind of cocoon nit !"

In contrast, Shi Yu on the side was much gentler, and explained to him: "I have something to talk to you about work, can I go in and talk?"

"……Work?"

"Well, it's a problem with the game script, some places want you to..."

"Sorry, that's no longer needed."

There was a sudden silence...

Ying Lili couldn't help opening her eyes, "Wait! What do you mean you don't need it anymore? Isn't this your own studio?"

Kato Yusuke looked at her blankly, and replied hoarsely: "That kind of thing, you just pretend it's not the case."

Shi Yu asked silently again: "...Since you don't want to talk about it now, it doesn't matter, but what about the school? Didn't you say yesterday that you will come today?"

"I'll figure it out, please go back..."

The moment the words came to an end, the metal door was also closed with a "bang".

see...

"--Aha!?"

Ying Lili stomped her feet angrily after being stunned, and knocked on the door with her fist.

"What's your attitude! At least come out and explain it!"

However, no matter how hard she hammered the door, Kato Yusuke in the room still ignored it, and stepped into the bathroom, intending to wash his face.

His face was clearly reflected in the mirror on the sink.

The eyes are empty and lifeless, the hair is messy, and the beard that protrudes slightly on the chin is also extremely messy.

The words "unkempt and unkempt" are probably the true portrayal of him now.

call……

He exhaled, stretched out his hand to turn on the faucet, took a handful of bitingly cold tap water, and slapped them hard on his face.

When he looked up again, there was no movement outside the door, and the two girls seemed to have left.

Kato Yusuke didn't care about it, and wanted to go back to bed to sleep again, but enough sleep for one afternoon and one night in a row made his brain feel sleepless.

He scratched at his messy hair, and a few dry, dull white strands were wrapped around his hands.

Immediately after, he lowered his head and sniffed his clothes again, and an unpleasant smell, like staying in an Internet cafe all night for a week, drifted into his nose.

"Take a shower..." He said to himself, then took off all the clothes on his body, threw them on the washing machine, walked into the bathroom, and started to take a bath.

It took about 20 minutes or so.

After taking a shower, he changed into short-sleeved shorts and stood in front of the sink again.

He reached out to pick up the toothbrush from the lonely mouthwash cup and squeezed toothpaste.Rinse your mouth with water first, and then start brushing your teeth in front of the mirror.

There are still wet drops of water hanging on the wet hair, and they are constantly dripping down the ends of the hair, like melting ice and snow, tick-tock.

The young man shown on the mirror is very handsome. Although his spirit and complexion still look poor, he also has the feeling of a melancholy and beautiful boy, especially his white hair, which exaggerates a little unique flavor.

Kato Yusuke stared at himself in the mirror, trying to let his mind go as far as possible, not to think too much.

He picked up the mouthwash cup with his left hand, took the water under the tap and rinsed his mouth, but accidentally saw the ugly scar on his hand.

The skin there was slightly lighter in color than the surrounding area, and there was a circle of irregular jagged lines on the edge, which looked a bit hideous—it was the scar left after the operation.

"..."

After cleaning up, Yusuke felt a little better and returned to the living room.

The room with the curtains closed was so dark that it was difficult to distinguish between day and night.

The TV that was left on all night was still broadcasting the program, but it was no longer Nogizaka46's.

With nothing to do, he came to the kitchen, started rummaging through the plastic bags on the floor, and decided to eat something.

Choose between various flavors of Nissin Cup Noodles.

Tokyo's seafood tonkotsu flavor, Kyushu's black garlic oil tonkotsu flavor, Fukuoka's spicy tonkotsu flavor...

Finally, I chose the one with seafood tonkotsu, and started to boil water to prepare instant noodles.

There is still a lot of miso soup left over from yesterday in the pot on the stove, but the bad taste has made him not want to experience it again.

It is obviously the same steps and the same technique, why is there such a big difference in the final products? ——He couldn't help thinking in his heart, and immediately let out a low murmur.

"Next time, I'll buy a speedo..."

——Puff, blah, blah, blah.

The kettle on the stove squealed.

Kato Yusuke turned off the fire, picked up the kettle, poured hot boiling water into the cup noodles, then took it back to the living room, put it on the low table and sat on the carpet beside the bed Down.

While waiting, I took my mobile phone casually, turned off the series of missed calls and notifications on it, then picked up the TV remote control, and mechanically started to change channels.

some time later.

He just ate instant noodles and watched TV to pass the time.

A program about current affairs became the best lullaby, making him yawn constantly.

Before he knew it, he fell into a dream again...

Time passed quietly with the ticking of the clock hands.

I don't know how long it will be...

Boom, boom~

Boom, boom~

While half asleep and half awake, Kato Yusuke heard the sound coming from outside the door, the rhythm was slow.

He staggered up from the ground, stepped lightly and heavily, and walked slowly to the entrance to open the door.

Accompanied by a "click" sound of the door.

The vermilion sunset streamed in from outside.

A young girl was facing the setting sun, standing safely in front of the door, still carrying a lot of things in her hands.

The short-to-medium-length hair hanging on both sides of the cheeks danced in the wind, fluffy, soft and shiny, with a faint fragrance of shampoo wafting from it.

She has regular facial features and a good appearance, wearing a well-tailored Toyosaki Academy uniform, exuding a gentle and sweet temperament.

A pair of eyes as pure as spring water contained a quiet and soft light, giving people the feeling of a deep to shallow clear stream. A white-haired boy was reflected in it, and there was a slight surprise for a moment.

"Ah, good afternoon, Yusuke." The outline of the girl drawn by the setting sun was very soft, and her voice was like a gently flowing brook.

Kato Yusuke was silent for a while, then replied: "...Good afternoon, Kei, what's the matter?"

"Well, let me take a look. It's about the sports meeting. I don't know what to do in some places, so I want to talk to Yusuke. Can you help me?"

Hui said so, and then gently lifted the paper bag in his hand, and added: "Also, I found these on the doorknob outside, I think it should be yours."

After a few beats.

"...sorry, I don't want to discuss that right now."

"That's it, um, then there's nothing I can do. Although I may be scolded by the teacher for not handling it well, since Yusuke is not in the mood, let it be."

Hui nodded slightly, raised his hand and handed the paper bag to the door, "Then I'll give you this, and I'll go back."

Another moment of silence.

Kato Yusuke moved his mouth and said in a low voice: "...the room is messy, if you don't mind... just come in."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the house alone, leaving the door there.

Kei didn't mind his reaction, and while saying "Excuse me then", pushed the door into the room, and closed the door behind her.

"Well, do I need to change into slippers or something, Yusuke?"

"It's no use."

In the dimly lit living room, someone responded in a low voice, "Just don't step on the trash."

"I see, um, I see."

Hui put down the exquisite paper bag in her hand for a while, and began to bend over to take off her shoes.

at the same time.

Accompanied by the sound of "唰啦——", Kato Yusuke also opened the closed curtains.

The warm and lonely twilight fell on the room.

After taking off her shoes, Hui picked up the paper bag again and walked into the living room.

The air is filled with the smell of food and a little sweat, eager for a fresh air circulation.

"By the way, where do you put these things? Yusuke."

"You can find a place wherever you want, and I will clean it up."

Kato Yusuke opened the glass door to let the air circulate.

He took the dishes on the table and the leftover instant noodle bucket to the kitchen, and threw them into the sink for storage, so that there would be an area around the low table where he could sit.

Immediately, he walked to the TV and turned off the power, turned his back to the living room and said, "...You can sit at the desk, it's clean."

This is the limit, as for more places, he has no intention to deal with them.

"OK, all right."

The girl nodded slightly at this, and sat down on the swivel chair in front of the desk, looking around.

Untidy beds, coats thrown on the floor, food stains on the table, and a messy kitchen...

In the end, it landed on the somewhat deserted figure again.

His eyes rolled slightly but he didn't say anything.

Kato Yusuke fetched two bottles of oolong tea, handed one of them to her, and sat down on the bed with the other bottle.

"Okay...you can talk about something."

The voice was a little indifferent.

"That~ Then I will start with the list of executive committee members of each class. If there is something wrong, you can interrupt me at any time."

Megumin said so in a calm tone, took out a stack of documents from the bag and put them on her knees, and began to talk while looking at the documents.

"——"

"------"

The girl's pure and peaceful voice echoed in the room.

The cool wind blowing in from the window slightly swayed her hair, and even the cherry pink hairpin pinned to one side also swayed slightly.

The dusk gradually set in the west, dyeing the room even more red and desolate.

Kato Yusuke listened silently, his eyes moved from the hairpin to the ground in front of him, and he felt a trace of peace after a long absence.

His feet were on the floor like a still lake under an autumn night sky.

Dreams and reality pull him, causing him to sway his body, chasing after the past that will never come back.
