In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 5
There is a line coming.

Kaoru Uesugi took out his phone from his pocket.

The avatar on the screen is a cartoon shark holding a fiery red chili pepper, which is a message from Hanamaru Hanabi.

"Uesugi-kun, isn't Aunt Noriko back today? 』

"No"

After Uesugi Kai replied, a (read) was displayed soon after the message

"Then Uesugi-kun will come to my house for dinner today, mom has already prepared the meal."

"Won't this bother you? 』Although Kai Uesugi really wanted to go, he still said something out of politeness.

Messages were answered quickly.

"No, mom always welcomes you, if it's Uesugi-kun, you'll be fine."

"Okay, I'll be there tonight"

"Um"

After seeing Hanamaru Hanabi finally send a cartoon expression of anticipation, Kai Uesugi put his phone back in his pocket.

The Hanamaru family has always been very warm, Uesugi Kai looked back at the room where he was alone, and still couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness in his heart.

As my parents, I always work overtime at night, and basically there are no leftovers at home.

I haven't eaten anything good at night since I grew up so old, it's all cup noodles, bento, and bread.

Because of this, Uesugi Kai also began to learn to cook by himself. Although the taste is not satisfactory, at least it can't kill people.

There is actually another reason why Uesugi Kai wanted to go to Hanamaru's house so much for dinner.

That is Hanamaru Hanabi's mother, and the dishes made by Aunt Mieko are too good for him.

Since I went there for the first time, the cup noodles, bento, and bread bought outside are all stains from the sewer, which is just disgusting.

Therefore, Uesugi Kai is sometimes very envious of Hanabi, who can eat such a delicious dinner every day.

Thinking about his parents again, although he shouldn't talk about it behind his back, Uesugi Kai couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the gap.

"Ah~."

18:24:56
Kai Uesugi looked at the dial in his hand, and found that there was still a certain amount of time before Hanabi's dinner at seven o'clock, so he lay back on his bed and started to study his system again.

Find the [Character] interface, and click on your own attribute list.

【Name: Uesugi Kai】

【Age: 16 years old】

【Height: 174】

【Intelligence: 7】

【Strength: 5】

【Speed: 4】

【Charm: 7】

[Physical: 5]

【技能：阅读lv5（5/10），料理lv0（-10/0）】

Reading lv5: To a certain extent, memory ability, learning ability, and immersion can be strengthened while reading.

Cooking lv0: No one will like to eat your cooking.

[Special Skill: None]

【Current Status: Normal】

Kai Uesugi carefully looked at every item of his data, and he had to say that it was quite accurate.

For example, for the intelligence of 7, the deviation value I assessed during the entrance examination was exactly 71, almost the same.

Well, in fact, when he saw that the cooking experience was -10, Kai Uesugi completely believed in the accuracy of this panel.

Recently, the cooking I made by myself has become more and more unpalatable.

People in the world say that people look forward when they live, but when they come to themselves, they learn more and go back.

Kaoru Uesugi also saw a '+' sign behind each attribute, with progress attached.

比如速度4，是（0/8）；速度5，是（0/10）；速度6是（0/20）；速度7，是（5/40）；
Speed ​​8 would be (1/80)
Speed ​​9 would be (1/160)

The value 5 is a cut-off point, and the further you go, the more attribute points you need.

Kai Uesugi understood this, and after looking at the character panel, he returned to the main menu and clicked to enter [Backpack].

Find the black gold card and click to use it.

Immediately, a reminder sounded in my mind.

【You used Yog-Sothoth's black gold card (gift version), it is being drawn, please wait.】

【Drawing in progress.】

Then, Uesugi Kai heard a special sound effect.

[attribute point × 1]

【Attribute point × 1】.
After going back and forth like this, after 12 times, the sound of the machine suddenly changed.

[Precise skill activation card lv1 (advanced)]

【Attribute point × 1】.
So back and forth, after another 17 times.
After that there is no after.

After waiting for a while, Uesugi Kai was sure that the so-called highest quality black gold card had already been drawn.

【Calculation of extraction results, please wait later】

The extraction results are: [attribute points × 29], [precision skill activation card Lv1 (advanced rare)], please pay attention to check.

Note: In the first three draws of cards, except for skill cards, the rest of the draws will completely draw attribute points.

Is this the so-called highest quality?

However, Uesugi Kai was not overly annoyed. When he saw the black-hearted gashapon system, he was ready for it. After all, it was a system from the sky, and it was better than nothing.

[Precision Skill Activation Card Lv1]

Introduction: Allow yourself to perform action corrections when performing an understood goal, and have a corresponding probability to make it perfect and accurate.

Current probability: 10%
Note: This probability is used for additional accuracy and does not affect your own judgment.

After a quick glance at the introduction of [Precise Skill Activation Card Lv1], Kai Uesugi clicked to use it.

[Activated skill: Precision]

Returning to the character interface again, Kaoru Uesugi found the attribute of 'precision' in the line of his skills.

[Precise Lv1 (0/5)]

Seeing that it was indeed activated, Uesugi Kai directly closed the system interface. Now he has nothing to do and is not in a hurry to allocate attribute points.

18:46:23
Get up, go downstairs, after changing shoes at the entrance, Uesugi Kai walked to the next door Hanabi's house.

This is a standard Japanese-style single-family building. The house inside is surrounded by stone walls. There is a small courtyard outside with flowers and plants. There is a white sign next to the fence in front of it, which says "Hanamaru" Character.

This kind of house in Shinjuku is not cheap at all.

Kaoru Uesugi walked in and rang the doorbell.

With a ding-dong sound, Hanamaru Hanabi's voice came from the small speaker by the door: "Uesugi-kun, please wait a moment."

After a while, after a crisp sound of going downstairs, Hanamaru Hanabi in a pink coat reached out and pushed open the door.

"good evening."

"Good evening Uesugi-kun."

Hanamaru Hanabi spoke in a low voice, and after glancing at Kai Uesugi with her bright eyes, she smiled sweetly before continuing, "Please come in, Uesugi-kun."

"Ah."

Uesugi Kai nodded lightly and followed Hanamaru Hanabi into the room without saying anything.

The two walked into the living room.

Huahuojia is more modern, the living room and the kitchen are connected together, and the overall structure is very bright.

As soon as you walk in, you can see a middle-aged woman in her 30s busy in the kitchen.

"Good evening, Aunt Mieko." Uesugi Kai greeted politely.

Mieko Hanamaru, who was cutting vegetables, heard Uesugi Kai's voice, turned around in a hurry, and said to him with a smile:
"Xiao Kai is here, good evening, let Huahuo take you to the living room first, cooking will have to wait for a while."

"Okay." Uesugi Kai nodded to her.

Huahuo's mother looks pretty when she smiles, she has the same colorful purple eyes as her daughter, and she is not too tall, and her long, smooth shawl hair looks very comfortable.

Although I often see Aunt Mieko, every time Uesugi Kai sees her smiling, he can recall the timid little girl who hugged her legs tightly, clutched the corner of her clothes, and had trembling eyes.

That was more than ten years ago, when the two met for the first time.
As soon as she finished speaking, the soup cooked by Mieko Hanamaru started to boil, and there was a sound of ding ding dong dong. She turned around quickly and turned off the fire.

Looking at the busy Mieko Hanamaru in front of him, Kai Uesugi couldn't help but asked Hanabi next to him:
"Auntie still likes to make several dishes at the same time."

"My mother said that the cooking speed is faster, and she can grasp the time better."

Hanamaru Hanabi poked out her small head to take a look, then turned back and continued to say to Uesugi Kai:

"Uesugi-kun, let's sit in the living room for a while, Hanabi is going to get barley tea, do you need some pre-dinner snacks?"

"No, no need, barley tea is enough."
