Chapter 488
The morning after leaving Kanoko Hasumi's apartment.
Kato Yusuke first went home and made some preparations, and then went out on a mountain bike.
Using the time on the road, he sorted out his recent situation in his heart.
First of all, there is the Immortal River.
Including yesterday's new issue of the journal.
"Chain Saw Man" has been serialized for five issues so far, and the content is up to the 13th chapter.
And in terms of manga manuscripts.
After finishing the matter of visits and condolences, he also sent the new manuscripts of Chapters 19-23 to the Undead River manga department.
The manuscript fee this time is 1152000 yen.
Including the previous manuscript fee (excluding the repaid debt), the total purchase price is about 459 million.
The second is recent spending.
In addition to the 45 for mountain bikes and the 50 for specialty products.
The cost is about 15 yen, including water and electricity property fees, transportation fees, communication fees, food expenses, etc.
After deducting these correspondingly, and then excluding the tax payment part, and adding the preferential deduction and exemption, the amount in hand is 2917500 yen.
Finally, there is 7500 million yuan in copyright transaction income, and the 1910 million arrears that have been fully returned to the Sawamura family.
After everything is settled.
The total amount in his current account is:
——58817500 yen.
The above is his current financial situation.
……
--squeak.
Under the sunlight of the rising sun, the mountain bike stopped.
The time now is seven past five in the morning.
Kato Yusuke looked up at the building in front of him.
The curtains on the second floor have been drawn, and the ceiling in the corner of the room can be faintly seen through the glass.
Then he looked back.
He didn't get off the mountain bike either, he just stepped on the ground with one foot, stepped on the pedal with one foot, and waited quietly.
Chirp, chirp~
In the fading sky, sparrows leisurely pecked at things on the ground, and then flew back into the air again.
While listening to the leisurely chirping of birds, he tidied up the collar of his newly changed shirt, and unbuttoned the first two buttons of the stand-up collar jacket and the shirt respectively.
Then he took out a bottle of oolong tea from the plastic bag in the car basket and took two sips to moisten his throat.
After about 10 minutes.
- Click.
"...Then, I'm going out, hoo~"
Padang.
With a tired face, the neatly dressed target appeared in Kato Yusuke's sight.
The girl had short black hair that reached her chin.With every step, her hair swayed.
A cherry pink hairpin was pinned on her head, shining slightly under the sunlight.
The person concerned has a beautiful appearance, a slender figure and a wonderful atmosphere of leisure and indifference.
She was wearing a dark blue single-breasted uniform jacket, a white shirt with a collar tied neatly to it, and a red ribbon tie on the chest.
A pair of white and beautiful thighs extended from under the short skirt, and the black calf socks further modified the curves of the legs. The graceful lines made people look very comfortable.
The other party stepped on a pair of dark brown loafers, making the sound of "cracking" footsteps and walking towards the door of the house.
Kato Yusuke unknowingly loosened the corner of his mouth, and moved the mountain bike forward a little, just blocking the girl's way.
"Good morning, Hui."
He said, "Go to school together?"
"……what?"
Obviously confused about the situation, Kei paused.
"...Yu...Jie...?"
A pair of clear and moving eyes shook for a moment, filled with surprise and puzzlement, they just looked over in a daze.
"Morning, Hui."
Kato Yusuke greeted again, and said with a smile: "Although it's a bit out of place, it's rare to see your expression like this, can I take a picture?"
"...Hmmm~?"
As if an instinctive reaction had been aroused, the girl blinked her eyes lightly twice.
The slightly raised right hand seemed to subconsciously want to tidy up the hair, but then he came to his senses and put it down again.
Such an action is really endearing.
The smile on Kato Yusuke's face was even wider, and he said, "Anyway, can we go to school together today? I have something to tell you."
Three seconds passed.
"...Basically, this kind of thing should be contacted in advance, right?—But..."
Hui turned his face slightly as he spoke, his eyes alternated between the back seat of the mountain bike and him, and asked, "Do you want to take me away, Yusuke."
Rusting, the street trees blowing by the breeze made some deep sounds.
Kato Yusuke extended a hand forward and nodded in response: "Give me the backpack."
The soft skirt swayed.
"...Oh~~ Then please."
Accompanied by the misty fragrance, the shoulder bag was handed over to him.
The girl's footsteps were light, and she sat down on the back seat in such a natural manner, and then seemed to remember something——
"Ah, and, good morning, Yusuke."
She went on to say: "Also, if this situation still exists next time, can you explain to me in advance? Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to determine various things."
"understood."
Kato Yusuke nodded with a smile, and passed a bottle of coffee to Ou Lei.
"Anyway, if you're ready, let's go."
"Well, it's alright."
His hands gently grasped his waist.
……
— squeaking.
Following the rocking of the mountain bike, the two left Kato's house soon and started on their way to school.
"—So Yusuke."
Hui asked, "What do you want to say?"
"Before that, didn't you just ask me about my visit to your house?"
"Hmm~~? Since I've already said everything I need to say, and I've got on a bicycle, I don't think there's much to ask... Or should I ask here?"
"Not at all."
Kato Yusuke shook his head in denial, and said while riding, "I want to report and discuss something with you."
"Well, regardless of what you want to discuss, what's the matter with reporting that statement?"
"Any questions?"
"Because, this sounds very formulaic, and doesn't it seem like I am Yusuke's superior? It's completely reversed."
"The supervisor and the supervised are not also one of our relationships."
"Ah, speaking of which, there is such a thing..."
Hui seemed to have just remembered, and said, "Sorry, I thought that matter was over."
"ended?"
"Isn't it~?"
"How come I don't know about this kind of thing??"
"Eh~~~? Even if you say that... But isn't the matter already resolved?"
"...Excuse me." Kato Yusuke said confused: "Can you explain more specifically?"
"after all--"
An emotionless voice sounded from behind.
"Yusuke, didn't you kindly send Kasumigaoka-senpai home yesterday? Use this bicycle in front of everyone."
"Uh……?"
"So, Kasumigaoka-senpai's problem has been solved, right? Isn't it~?"
"Well……?"
"Ah, and the bottle of oolong tea I gave you at that time yesterday~"
"No, that, I don't seem to have drunk..."
"Speaking of which, Xia Zhiqiu-senpai kissed you in front of everyone, it's amazing, I admire her deeply."
"—!"
Kato Yusuke was unconsciously at a loss for words, and didn't know how to react for a while.
"Then~" Hui asked casually, "Yusuke, have you dated Kasumigaoka-senpai?"
The two have exchanged this question before, but the meaning is obviously different now and then.
"benefit……"
"I'm here~ I'm listening too."
"...You won't attack me afterwards, will you?"
"I don't know, did you do something to Kasumigaoka-senpai that I should attack you?"
"I don't think so."
"--Oh?"
The indifferent voice made Kato Yusuke's back feel cold, and he swallowed unconsciously.
Although I didn't do anything wrong, is this something I can talk about with Kei who is not quite right now?
He was a little uncertain, but he didn't want to lie to her.
While he was thinking, there was another calm voice behind him.
"—Aren't you going to report? Don't you tell?"
"Listen to me, Hui, I didn't take this opportunity to do something unforgivable to Shiyu-senpai."
"Well~~ As soon as I wasn't by your side to take care of you, you took the opportunity to date a senior senior. Are you doing this between us, and you will let me have an unforgivable relationship?"
"Isn't this statement too malicious?"
"I don't know ~~~"
Huiruo said nonchalantly: "After all, Yusuke never told me about what happened after Kasumigaoka-senpai took her away... Speaking of which, you also obediently followed."
The corners of Kato Yusuke's eyes twitched, and then whispered:
"I'm really sorry, my mind was on other things at the time. But from the facts, I did violate the agreement with you and shot at other girls."
"Strange, although a large part of me was just joking, as for what happened to you and Kasumigaoka-senpai, I don't really care much...but—"
Kei continued on in a very normal way:
"Yusuke, you're not my boyfriend, and you didn't hide anything about your relationship with Kasumigaoka-senpai. If that's the case, do you have to feel guilty?"
"benefit……"
"So, you'd better think about the meaning of apologizing to me in this situation?"
There was a hint of irritability in the plain words.
It seems to be exhorting, and it seems to be convincing myself.
Before Kato Yusuke can think deeply...
"Besides—"
Kei muttered and said, "Yusuke, you didn't break the agreement with me. The matter of going to the dinner party was decided by everyone, so I shouldn't put the object on me alone..."
"...Sorry, I will apologize to everyone after school."
"Well, that's fine. Also, I'm sorry, I shouldn't use that nasty term."
"No, I should apologize."
"Hey, Yusuke."
"what?"
——Why do you always follow me like this?
Hui paused for a moment, and then said: "The day of the off-campus teaching... No, as expected, forget it. Do you have anything to say?"
The street scenes on both sides are constantly regressing, and bicycles are riding on the streets with scattered people.
Kato Yusuke was silent for a while, "Anyway, I still want to discuss something with you."
"That's it, then you can say it?"
"About that game studio, I want you to join in."
"This matter... Didn't you mention it in the student union yesterday?"
"That's right, but your reaction at the time seemed a little cold. I wonder if you have any concerns."
"...Well~~ If you really want to say it, Yusuke, what do you want me to do?"
Hui said with some trouble:
"You should know that I can neither draw pictures like Eriri, nor can I be in charge of scripts like Kasumigaoka-senpai.
I don't even understand things like sounds and programs.
It's okay if it's just a part-time job where everyone has fun together, but the game Yusuke is going to make is a real one, right?
Is it really okay for someone like me who doesn't know anything to join in? "
"I see. Is this Hui's concern?"
"Well, basically, that's about it."
"..."
With a tense face, Kato Yusuke said slowly according to the tense and cautious mood in his heart:
"If you say... I just want you by my side, what would you do?"
The blank time spread in an instant.
Wild cats jumped out of the fence on the side of the road nimbly, crows neighed in the distance, and the tires of bicycles creaked.
For a moment, the hands on the waist seemed to shake slightly...
a long time--
"...Although there are some things I care about in this sentence, but I will be more sensible here and let's not ask about it."
Hui took a light breath and said, the tone was slightly unsteady, as if trying to maintain a normal mind.
Then she went on.
"...Well, if you just want me to attend the event, Yusuke, I will be there, there is no other place to go anyway.
However, people like me who don't know anything don't necessarily have to join the work.
As long as I take care of you...and everyone, that's fine, right? "
"—That won't work."
Kato Yusuke said softly with certainty: "I want Megumi to join and participate.
Not as a bystander, nor put yourself in a secondary position to take care of me or everyone.
Instead, we will go on together as partners and shareholders. "
The hand on the waist pinched him lightly.
"...Let me tell you, Yusuke."
Hui was a little dumbfounded and said troubledly: "...The kind of request you made is quite difficult, obviously I said it just now...
"—production in progress."
Kato Yusuke interrupted her forcefully, "Have you heard of this? I want you to do this."
"Making... proceeding...?"
"Well, it's also called production responsibility. It's one of the jobs in the animation industry. Many famous directors started from this position."
"Ah, I don't quite understand it, but it sounds complicated..."
"Not at all. Because we are making games, here I will explain based on our situation."
He put it this way:
"Generally speaking, production progress is mainly responsible for checking the progress of specific work such as art, scripts, sounds, and programs.
Coordinate, assign and manage the personnel of each group through the production project and overall plan formulated in advance.
Supervise and ensure that a project can be completed within the stipulated time, this is what production should do. "
Kato Yusuke stopped here, then changed into a lighter tone and continued:
"Because this is a very important job, I want to hand it over to Kei who I trust the most. Are you willing to accept it?"
— clang.
It was as if the sound of glass breaking rang in his head.
Vaguely, Hui seems to have finally seen the piece that can lead to the special one that belongs only to her——
Puzzle pieces.
