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

Chapter 439 The girl sitting on the back seat

Takei's words not only disrupted Yamaguchi's thoughts, but even Kato Yusuke was attracted by him.

"Hey, stupid Takei, don't suddenly yell in the street!"

"But! This is the chainsaw man! It said that starting from the next issue, there will be five serials!!"

While talking, Takei excitedly showed the two of them the manga magazine of this issue of "Shounen Undead".

I saw that on the last page of Chapter 3 of "Chain Saw Man", there is indeed an official notice that a supplement will be issued from the next issue.

Seeing this, Yamaguchi was startled at first, then became interested, and immediately turned into his arms.

"What! It's five serials!? Doesn't that mean..."

"Yes, yes!"

"Are you thinking the same thing, Takei!"

"I'm thinking about it!"

The mangosteen brothers holding the magazine looked at each other and shouted in unison:
"More, Miss Marchma—! ! ! ""

"Alas--!"

"Great--!"

The two people held each other's hand in such a sympathetic manner, showing male friendship.

Kato Yusuke silently turned his face, looked around aimlessly, and finally landed on a certain stylishly decorated store.

It was a shop selling bicycles, and the brightly colored bicycles hung in the transparent window were very eye-catching.

"It's time for you to buy a car too, right?" —— Benizaka Akane's sarcasm suddenly came out of his mind.

He glanced at the two people who were excitedly discussing the manga, and then observed the two girls who were still shopping in the drugstore.

Kato Yusuke walked alone, crossed the road, and stepped into the store opposite.

……

It took about 15 minutes or so.

When he entered the store, he entered the store empty-handed, and when he left the store, there was a camouflage green mountain bike beside him.

Cross the road again.

In front of the convenience store, Kako and Hui were already standing there.

Yoshiko Himekawa, who was wearing a uniform, had her hands on her hips, and was talking to Brother Mangosteen, who was drooping his head.

Hui, on the other hand, stood quietly beside her, fiddling with her mobile phone, as if about to make a call.

Kato Yusuke pushed the car and walked up it unhurriedly.

"Have you finished shopping?"

"Ah! It's Kato! And he's pushing a bicycle!" Takei, who was the first to spot him, yelled loudly.

"what!?"

"Kato-san??"

"...?"

Yamaguchi, Kako, and Hui also looked at the same place.

"You bastard! Where did he go? He didn't even say hello!"

"You're finally back~~~ Jiazi has trained us so badly!!"

"I'm not that fierce! Besides, I didn't even notice that my friend disappeared from my side, which is very problematic in itself!"

Yamaguchi rushed up angrily, followed by Takei and Kako, and the three formed an encircling circle, surrounding Yusuke directly in the middle.

Kato Yusuke apologized, parked his bicycle on the spot, and responded, "Just now I saw that you were all busy, so I went shopping at the store opposite."

"Take a stroll?"

The three of them calmed down and looked down at the mountain bike at the same time.

Camouflage exterior paint, high-carbon steel body with a faint metallic luster, Shimano chain, integrated lock, transmission, and shock absorber.

Lights, pedals, fenders, rear seats, bazookas, all kinds of accessories are available, everything is brand new.

The three of them discovered to their surprise that this was actually a new car.

Takei: "Good, so handsome!"

Yamaguchi: "Oh! What's going on? You rented this?"

Kako: "Eh? Kato-san bought a bicycle? Why? It's so sudden!"

Kato Yusuke pondered for a while: "Cycling can exercise your body, and commuting is more convenient than trams during peak hours."

"Hahaha, you actually bought a mountain bike while buying outdoor products, Kato, you are so strange." Hearing this explanation, Takei laughed.

"It's so despicable! You clearly rejected what I was looking for, but you bought such a handsome thing in silence. Okay! Takei, let's ride together!"

"Agreed——!!!"

Under Yamaguchi's suggestion, the two got on the mountain bike one after the other, and began to ride crookedly.

"Yahho!" As if feeling unsatisfied, Takei stood up from the bazooka installed in the center of the rear wheel.

"Idiot! It's forbidden to take people to ride a bicycle!" Jiazi put her hands next to her mouth to make a loudspeaker, then dropped her shoulders weakly and scolded the two idiots.

Hee hee ha ha, Yamaguchi's voice floated over from not far away.

"—You can't get married if you keep talking like this, Jiazi!"

"I'm so mad, stop for me, I'm going to kill you!"

After playing around for a while.

The five people gathered again at the entrance of the convenience store.

Kato Yusuke was thinking about going home to finish the draft, so he cut off Takei's suggestion of "Why don't we go eat ramen together?"

"So direct! Obviously I haven't finished talking yet!?"

"Takei is about to cry, right? Kato."

"Sorry, next time, I still have work to do at home." Kato Yusuke apologized, and then stepped on the bicycle seat.

Jiazi rolled her eyes, and suddenly said, "Are you going to go back by bicycle? Kato-san."

"Ah."

"That's it~ Then can I entrust you with the task of sending Xiaohui home?"

"……what?"

Megumin was stunned when her name was suddenly called. Before she could react, Kako forcibly pushed her to the front and stopped beside Yusuke.

The two looked at each other, and the girl took the lead to look away.

"That, Kako...?"

"What's the matter? Anyway, Xiaohui's house is not far from here, so you can ask Kato-san to take you back!"

"That's not the problem, you just said that it's forbidden to take people on bikes...?"

"Ah~ah~ I didn't hear anything. Anyway, you have been excluded from the rest of the itinerary... That's it, so Megumi is counting on you, Kato-san." Yoshiko Himekawa said generously.

"Even if you say that..." Kei followed her gaze with a little trouble on her face and turned her gaze back to Kato Yusuke.

"Come up."

"……Eh?"

"I'll take you back." Kato Yusuke turned the car around and repeated, "Come on."

Seeing this scene, Kei opened her lips slightly, tilted her head to think for a moment, and asked, "Is this really okay? Although Kako said that, my house is still some distance away from here?"

"Ah~ah~! I'm so anxious! Kato-san said it's fine, what are you doing? Okay, okay, sit on it quickly~~~!"

Hearing this, Jiazi couldn't bear to be a little bit crazy, so she pushed her shoulders and forced her to the back seat.

"Then see you tomorrow ~ Kato-san, Megumi."

Kato Yusuke nodded, while Kei remained silent, as if a little angry, then lowered his shoulders like an appointment, and reluctantly picked up Yusuke's uniform jacket behind Yusuke's shoulders with his fingertips.

That look is really rare, even Kako, who is a girl, thinks it is a little cute, and her eyes can't help but brighten up.

The Mangosteen brothers who were also fortunate enough to see this scene were also a little surprised, and they couldn't help but secretly exchanged a look.

Among all the people present, only Kato Yusuke did not see this scene, but he could feel the weak force from his shoulder, so he said:

"...You are holding it too lightly, so the center of gravity will be unstable. If you are not used to it, you can step on the bazooka."

"Well, but I'm wearing a skirt, so I really can't sit like that..."

"Then hurry up."

"Is that so...?"

The strength behind the shoulders increased so slightly that it was almost undetectable.

Kato Yusuke: "..."

Poof, uh...

Yamaguchi and Takei involuntarily covered their mouths to hold back their laughter.

Kako started directly.

"No! Xiaohui, you are really, this is the right way~!"

As she spoke, she took Kei's hand, brought it forward without delay, wrapped it around Yusuke's waist, and fixed it tightly.

Kato Yusuke moved his lips slightly, and the hands clasped around his waist were more tense than he imagined.

He hesitated for a while, but in the end he didn't say much, he just said in a low voice that he was leaving, and the girl responded with a soft hum.

Watched by Mangzhu Brothers and Jiazi, the mountain bike carrying them slowly and quickly disappeared into the horizon under the setting sun...

As Yoshiko Himekawa said, Kei's place of residence is indeed in the Ikebukuro area, but it is indeed some distance away from where the few people are separated.

After confirming the specific street with the girl, Kato Yusuke buried himself in the mountain bike and didn't say much.

And the girl also behaved very quietly, apart from giving him instructions on where he might encounter the police, she also had no desire to communicate.

Perhaps because of the scene that happened yesterday, Kato Yusuke felt a little restrained quiet during the time with Kei for the first time.

I thought this journey would end in silence, but the girl suddenly spoke at a certain moment.

"By the way... I always feel that it's a bit heavy, isn't it?"

"Maybe."

"It's strange, obviously we have not talked together before, but today, it seems to be the first time."

"Same feeling."

"...? Well, although this may or may not be my illusion, is it possible that Yusuke is blaming me?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Ah, um, if you want to say it, I got in the way of you and Kasumigaoka-senpai... I'm conscious of that."

Before the embarrassing atmosphere spread, Kato Yusuke answered casually: "It's not a problem, but I didn't expect you to throw such a straight ball question as soon as you came up."

"Huh? What do you mean by that, are you talking about my evil intentions...?"

Kei hugged her hands a little tighter, and poked her head out slightly to peek at his expression.

This kind of action made Yusuke feel a little itchy in his waist, but he didn't show it. He just continued to look ahead and rode the mountain bike at a constant speed.

"Not at all."

"Fundamentally, it's actually Yusuke who overcomplicated things."

"what are you saying?"

"...Even if you are dating Kasumigaoka-senpai, there is no need to care about me? After all, she is beautiful and has a good figure, and she is very attractive as a royal sister, so it doesn't matter, I don't care at all, okay?"

——Bang bang bang bang.

The tram on the Toden Arakawa Line passed by the two of them, and the sound overshadowed the voice for a moment, and then gradually faded away after a while.

Kato Yusuke turned his face slightly and asked, "Sorry, did you say something just now?"

"Ah~ah~ it's nothing, the unresponsive hero." Hui complained in a slightly raised tone.

"Your recent speeches seem to often use some two-dimensional vocabulary."

"Ah, after all, our student union is full of creators, manga writers, light novel authors, and doujinshi illustrators. Is it just me and Xinjo who are more ordinary?"

"I don't think you are average, and you have changed a lot since you joined the student union."

"...You obviously didn't remember my name and face at the beginning."

After such a reminder, Yusuke also remembered what happened back then, and the expression on his face softened slightly.

"...At that time, it seemed that I was called by Mr. Nakamura to give a lecture."

"Well, yes, all sorts of things happened."

Hui first said affirmatively, and then changed his words, "But, it is because you always lead me forward that I will change, so thank you."

"No, you don't blame me for involving you in many things."

The wheels of the mountain bike creaked.

The sunset in the west dyed the slender, gauze-like clouds red, dotting the sky lightly.

As if remembering something, Hui suddenly said, "Ah, speaking of which, I went to Ying Lili's house yesterday because I was delivering schoolbags. How should I put it, it's really a wonderful place."

"A schoolbag?" Kato Yusuke asked, turning his face slightly.

"Well, it's Ying Lili's schoolbag. She left it in the student union when she left yesterday."

"Is that so."

"That's right, but on the other hand, Ying Lili is still very angry with Yusuke, have you talked to her yet?"

"No."

"Well, I guess so, Yusuke doesn't care about these, does he?"

Kato Yusuke frowned slightly at the words that seemed to point, and thought: "Eriri is still young, and now she just feels that her things have been taken away, and she will be fine after a while."

"Hey~ So you think so, it's really great, "brother". "

"What are you complaining about now?"

"Because, who told you to be the same as the male protagonist in the harem?

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know ~~~"

After riding for half an hour, the two arrived in front of an independent one-family building.

Kato Yusuke stopped the mountain bike with a squeak and said, "Here we are."

"Well, thank you for taking me back, Yusuke."

Hui, who had picked up her things, jumped out of the back seat lightly, put the shoulder bag back on her shoulders, and then turned around.

"So, shall I go back?"

Kato Yusuke nodded, thought for a while and said, "See you tomorrow, Kei."

"Well, that's it, bye, Yusuke." Kei waved his hand lightly to say goodbye, and then walked towards the house with the address "Kato".

The sound of the mountain bike sounded behind him, and gradually faded away.

Hui suddenly stopped walking in front of the door, looked back, and saw that the figure had already ridden away.

……

　A small knife, set the relationship between the characters, and then return to normal.
