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

Chapter 563 The Guardian and the Maiden

03:30 pm, Ikebukuro Station.

Kato Yusuke, Serizawa Yu, Shiwa, and Kei, a group of people came here.

——Come to see Mina Motoyama.

Standing in front of the station where people come and go, Motoyama Mina stopped and smiled at everyone.

"Okay, let's send it here, everyone. I will walk the rest of the way by myself. Thank you for coming to see me off."

"Aunt Mina..."

Yu Serizawa hugged Mina Motoyama's arm, whispering softly, with a bit of reluctance and sadness of parting in her eyes.

Seeing this, Mina Motoyama patted her head comfortingly, and said softly: "Okay, okay, don't show such an expression, it's not like I won't see you anymore."

"Actually, you can stay longer."

Kato Yusuke said at the right time: "The New Year is coming soon, and then we can celebrate the New Year together in Tokyo."

Facing this proposal, Mina Motoyama shook her head slowly but firmly.

"No, there are still a lot of things to do in my hometown, including the preparation of winter pickles. I have to go back and do it."

Kato Yusuke felt a little helpless, and continued: "But that can be done by someone, right? Do you need to do it yourself?"

"It's nothing. Anyway, I've been used to these things for a long time. If I don't move my body, I will feel uncomfortable."

Mina Motoyama knew that he cared about herself, so she didn't blame him for his extravagance, but she also didn't intend to change her mind, so she said something.

"Besides, I still need to visit Lord Kato's grave. If we all stay in Tokyo, Lord Kato will feel lonely."

Kato Yusuke immediately fell silent.

As if to fill the gap, Serizawa Yu picked up the small paper bag in her hand and handed it out.

"That, Aunt Mina. Thank you for your care during this time, please accept this?"

"Huh? This is?"

"Ah, those are the gloves I knitted. It's been cold recently, so..."

Motoyama Mina opened the paper bag and took out a pair of brown cashmere gloves, her eyes lit up slightly.

"Ah, this one seems very warm~ Thank you, Xiao Xi."

"Hey hey, that's great, it's good if you like it~"

Immediately afterwards, Shi Yu also took out the gift she had prepared, and gave it out generously.

"Aunt Mina, this is the scarf I gave you, please accept it if you don't mind."

"scarf?"

Motoyama Mina smiled and took the paper bag in her hand, took out a beautiful square cardboard box from it, opened it, and removed the white tissue paper spread on it.

——A very textured cashmere scarf came into view.

"Ah, so beautiful."

"Thank you, as long as you like it." Shi Yu smiled slightly, but heard this sentence in the next second.

"But this scarf must be very expensive, right? Xiaoshi, I've accepted your wish, but you should take it back."

Motoyama Mina returned the things while talking, Shiwa's expression froze immediately.

"No, that, don't you like my gift, Aunt Mina?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that this gift looks expensive, you should give it to your family."

"no……"

Looking at the resolute Mina Motoyama, Shiwa didn't know what to say for a while, and finally Yusuke Kato helped out.

"Aunt Mina."

He just reached out to take the box, took out the scarf from inside, and helped Motoyama Mina wrap it around his neck without any explanation.

"Well, it's beautiful."

"Xiaoyou...?"

The person concerned frowned in dissatisfaction, while Kato Yusuke said with a smile: "Isn't this pretty good? It happens to be a pair with the gloves Xiao Xi gave you, so you can accept it."

"This……"

Motoyama Mina looked at the scarf on her chest in embarrassment, hesitated for a while, and finally sighed and dropped her shoulders.

"Oh, well then, thank you for your gift, Xiaoshi."

"will not."

Shiwa waved her hands hastily, feeling a warmth in her chest, and glanced at Kato Yusuke with crooked eyes.

"..."

Serizawa Yu looked at the scarf around Mina Motoyama's neck, and recognized that it was a classic Burberry plaid scarf. It was very expensive, and it was not comparable to her own gloves.

She couldn't help but feel a little inferior in her heart, and she couldn't help but silently lowered her head in frustration.

Hui at the side caught this scene, a flash of thought flashed in his eyes, and then took a step forward.

"That~ Aunt Mina."

She said: "Actually, I also brought some snacks that I made myself. You can eat them on the way. It's not expensive. It would be great if you are willing to accept it."

"Dim sum? Thank you, Xiaohui, you are so thoughtful~"

"No~ It's just a small gift. I have been taking care of you recently."

Serizawa Yu suddenly raised her head when she heard this, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she unconsciously cast a grateful look at Hui, and the girl gave her a faint smile.

Benshan Mina glanced at the three girls in front of her one by one, and couldn't help but smile.

"In short, thank you all, I like everyone's gifts very much, and I am interested."

The three women either shook their heads or waved their hands, expressing politeness one after another.

"By the way, I also have something to give you here."

While Mina Motoyama was talking, she took out a beautiful kit from the bag on her shoulder and opened it.

"Xiaoshi, Xiaohui, these two are for you~"

"Hey, this is..."

"Ah, it's the guard."

"Hmm~ This is the academic guard that Xiaoxi and I went to the temple to ask for. I wish you all success in your studies~"

"Thank you, Aunt Mina. ""

Hui and Shiyu, who took the things, both opened their mouths to thank.

Mina Motoyama replied with a smile that you are welcome, and then waved to Yusuke Kato, "And there is Xiaoyu."

"exist."

"These two are for you."

"two??"

Kato Yusuke blinked in surprise, and asked, "Isn't the extra one for Xiao Xi?"

"Hee hee~ I already have it, Brother Yu."

Serizawa Yuki happily took out an omamori from her pocket, and replied, "Auntie Mina gave me one when she bought it, you don't have to worry~"

"That's it, then this other guard is..."

"It's for Yinglili."

Benshan Mina reminded: "I have contacted Sayuri, you remember to send it to someone else, you know?"

"..."

Kato Yusuke's lips moved slightly, and he replied slowly: "...Well, I see."

To be honest, he didn't really want to go to Yingli Li's house at such a sensitive point, but since it was Mina Motoyama's order, it was a different matter.

After explaining the matter, Motoyama Mina asked for her suitcase from him, and then bowed slightly to everyone.

"Then, Xiaoyou, he will please everyone, and you are welcome to come to my hometown to play next time~"

"Well~ I will try my best to help Brother Yu!"

"Aunt Mina, you are welcome, this is what I should do."

"Well, Aunt Mina, don't worry, we will remember~"

Xiao Xi, Shi Yu, and Hui said one after another.

Kato Yusuke touched his nose in embarrassment, not knowing how to react for a while.

"Hehe, what a bunch of good kids."

Motoyama Mina looked at this scene with a smile, her eyes turned around the three girls, and her eyes became warmer.

The well-behaved Xiao Xi, the beautiful and generous Shi Yu, the quiet and indifferent Hui, and the lively and lovely Ying Lili who couldn't be there...

No matter which one she likes very much, and at the same time she is sincerely pleased that Kato Yusuke has so many friends around her.

Although the number of girls among these friends seems to be a bit much... But because her family Xiaoyou is very handsome, it doesn't matter.

Mina Motoyama thought very openly, and couldn't help but gently touched her cheek with one hand, and said happily: "This is so good~ I always feel like a family~"

"One, a family—?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu exclaimed, blushed suddenly, then lowered her head as if caught in some kind of imagining, giggling silly.

Serizawa Yu subconsciously looked to her side, and followed Kato Yusuke's gaze to Kei.

The girl was watching Mina Motoyama quietly, with a calm expression on her face, as if she didn't notice the sight around her.

"Then so be it."

Motoyama Mina chuckled: "It's almost time for me to go in and take a ride, see you all~"

Serizawa Yu; "Goodbye, Aunt Mina~!"

Shi Yu: "Take care, Aunt Mina, go slowly."

Hui: "Aunt Mina, be careful on the road~"

Kato Yusuke: "Remember to be safe."

"Well~ I see, thank you. You too, remember to be safe on the way back."

Motoyama Mina waved goodbye to everyone, then walked into the station with a suitcase, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Then, Kei also bid farewell.

"Well, everyone. Since I still have something to do, I'll take a step first~"

Hearing this, Shi Yu couldn't help showing a puzzled expression.

"...Eh, you're surprisingly honest today, Kato-kun."

"Hmm...? Even if you say that, Kasumigaoka-senpai, I don't want to fight against you today."

"Why? Could it be that you were showered with love for six hours last night~?"

Kato Yusuke was about to speak when he heard this, but Kei reacted one step ahead of him.

"—as I said."

The girl frowned slightly and then loosened her brows, and said lightly: "Anyway, I have something to do, so I'm sorry. Goodbye, Xiao Xi."

"Eh? Ah, okay, goodbye, Kato-san."

Serizawa Yuqiang smiled and waved, while Kato Yusuke couldn't help frowning.

Without delay, Kei just turned around and left.

A flash of surprise flashed in Shi Yu's eyes, she turned her head and asked, "What's the matter, did you offend her, Yo-chan?"

"I don't remember ever doing that."

"That's it~ Then what are your plans next?"

Kato Yusuke thought about it for a while, then looked at Serizawa Yu, "Xiao Xi, is Shinjo at home now?"

"...Huh? Well, Xiao Xiang was there when I went out, but why...?" Serizawa Yu tilted her head in confusion.

"Well, because I have something to explain to you, I plan to go to her side. Do you want to come with Shiba-senpai?"

"...do you want me to go?"

"I also can."

"..."

Shiyu narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced over his face in a neutral manner, and then said, "No, Ms. Machida is still waiting for me to discuss the animation, so it can't be done."

"Is that so." Kato Yusuke nodded, "Then I'll take you to Ms. Machida's side first, and then go to Xiao Xi and the others."

"No, isn't that troublesome? I'll just take a taxi by myself, and let me know when you're done."

Shi Yu stopped here, reached out to help him straighten his collar, and added: "That's it, let's make a video tonight."

"it is good."

"Then goodbye, Xiao Xi."

"Yeah! Goodbye, Ms. Kasumigaoka."

After Megumi, Shiwa also left in a taxi.

◇

Next, Kato Yusuke came to Shinjoka.

Xintiaoxiang is doing yoga alone at home, wearing a set of gorgeous taro purple yoga clothes, which outlines a healthy and attractive figure.

When the two entered the door, the girl was doing a difficult split.

Her two legs stretched out one after the other, her body leaned back like an arch bridge, and she grasped her heels with both hands, showing amazing flexibility.

Because of this movement, the medium-sized sports vest was pulled up slightly, revealing a snow-white, flat and smooth belly, with a touch of pink in the white.

The tall and steep peaks are towering, like a pair of upside-down round jade bells, full and thought-provoking.

One man and two women, three persons and six eyes.

One of the parties is at home and the other two are at the door.

After looking at each other like this for two or three seconds...

"...Eh, President...?"

Xinjoxiang murmured, with surprise in her eyes, "Why did you come here~?"

The immature face was dyed with a unique red tide after exercise.

A few strands of wet hair stuck to her forehead and cheeks, revealing a slightly messy beauty, and at the same time filled with the youthful vitality of a girl.

Faced with Shinjoka's question, Kato Yusuke has not yet had time to speak...

"—Xiaoxiang!"

Serizawa Yu ran up and put a coat on the other party in a panic.

"You, why are you dressed like this? Didn't I say Brother Yu is coming to talk to us?"

"Hey, did you say that? When?"

"Twenty minutes ago, I sent you an email."

"That's it~ But I was practicing yoga at the time, so I didn't have time to look at my phone."

"Ah, anyway, you should put on some clothes first...!"

"Eh~~~? But I haven't finished the practice yet."

"I beg you, okay~? I'll do the exercises later."

Reluctantly, Xinjoxiang straightened up, turned her head slightly to look at the door, waved at Kato Yusuke, and mouthed "Hi~".

"Yu, Brother You..."

Seeing her movements, Serizawa Yu looked back awkwardly, her eyes full of anxiety.

Kato Yusuke coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "...You guys clean up slowly, I'll wait outside."

After finishing speaking, he backed out of the apartment and knocked on the door.

He stood at the door leaning on the railing, and the picture in the room remained in his mind for a few seconds before disappearing.

Although some things are nothing to him and Xintiaoxiang, we still have to be careful to avoid suspicion when Xiao Xi is present.

Kato Yusuke put his hand into the pocket of his coat, and a pocket remote control was lying quietly inside.

— Waiting for the property to return to its original owner.

Just like this, the cold wind blew outside the door for a while, and then there was a slight sound of the door opening behind...
