[Comprehensive] Kazuya's happy life

Kazuya changed his clothes and went downstairs. When passing by the living room, he took a peek inside, and sure enough, he saw Tatsuya nestled in the kotatsu, eating oranges while watching TV...

"Hey, boy! Are you going out?" Sensing his gaze, Tatsuya turned his head and greeted.

Kazuya nodded, "Yes. I made an appointment with Lian to go out together."

Tsuruga Ren's new work "Ninomiya-kun's Deduction Classroom" has already completed all the shooting, so in addition to cooperating with the crew to carry out promotional activities and photography work on some magazine covers, before the end of the year, there are only two new advertisements. It is rare to usher in a relatively leisure time for the shooting task.

So he spent most of his free time with Kazuya - he didn't know how things turned out like this.

Tatsuya looked accustomed to hearing his younger brother's answer.

"Are you coming back for dinner tonight?" He asked casually.

Kazuya thought for a while, and replied: "It's not sure yet. I'll call home again at that time. Lian has no work tonight, and maybe he will just stay overnight at his place today."

"... Tsk." Tatsuya clicked his tongue in a low voice, as if a little uncomfortable.

——I always felt that after the winter vacation started, Kazuya went to someone's place a little too often.

Such an old man can't learn to take good care of himself, and a child who is three years younger than him (Kazuya: ...) will worry about him in turn, even if the other party is the lead actor of many series he likes, Tatsuya also I don't think I can look pleasing to such a guy...

"Be careful on the road." He turned his head lazily, and waved his hand with his back to Kazuya carelessly. Although he had countless thoughts in his heart, he didn't show the slightest bit on his face.

He also looked at his back and pursed his lips and smiled.

"Well, I'm going out, brother."

***

In late December, the footsteps of Christmas are approaching day by day, the streets have begun to fill with a strong festive atmosphere, and the Christmas promotions of major shopping malls have also started ahead of schedule. Walking on the streets, you can see large red decorations almost everywhere. There are always various classic and cheerful Christmas music floating around.

He also walked quickly to the agreed street corner.

It was snowing outside today, he specially wore a thick winter coat, a hat, scarf and gloves, and he was wrapped up tightly. As soon as he turned the corner of the street, he was caught by the eyes of Tsuruga Lian who was sitting in the car is on.

When he opened the door and sat in the car, fastened his seat belt and turned around to say hello to his friend, he saw someone lying on the steering wheel, covering his mouth and shaking with laughter...

Kazuya: "..."

What is this strange reaction?He also really doesn't understand.

Tsuruga Lian laughed and coughed in his embarrassing eyes:

"Puff...cough cough! Hug, sorry..."

He laughed so hard he couldn't breathe.

He couldn't help it, so he could only sit there and wait for him to finish laughing.

Gradually, the laughter stopped in the small and warm space in the car, leaving only a little cheerful aftertaste on Tsuruga Ren's face——

"Kazuya... isn't this outfit too cute? Aunt Haruko's eyes?"

As he asked with a smile, he stretched out his hand and tugged at the two fluffy balls hanging down from both sides of Heye's hat.

This hat and the scarf that Kazuya is wearing are a set. They are made of a kind of material that Tsuruga Ren can't tell the specific material. The style of the hat is very fresh and cute, and there are two fluffy balls on both sides of the hat near the ears. With them like this, Kazuya suddenly looks a lot smaller. He has a somewhat immature youthful face. Looking at it like this, he is even more a cute ♂cute♂♂boy♂child♂♂. (Wait for me if your notation is wrong!)

He also sighed helplessly in the face of his friend's playful and smiling eyes.

"It was indeed chosen by my mother, and my brother and I have a set." It's just that the colors are different.

But God knows He Ye never thought of wearing this set when he went out!

He also opened the door to find that it was snowing outside, and was about to turn back to get a hat to put on, when Haruko who happened to come out grabbed him, and conveniently (?) put on the newly bought set.

Seeing Haruko smiling and carefully arranging her scarf expectantly, Kazuya couldn't say no to her no matter what.

In the snowy weather, he couldn't take off the scarf and hat after going out and risked catching a cold, so he just wore it all the time—speaking of which, he actually didn't feel like doing this There's nothing embarrassing about dressing up like that.

But now Tsuruga Ren's reaction...

He also silently patted away his friend's hand that was still holding the pompom beside his ear.

——You are enough.

There was a clear warning in his eyes.

Tsuruga Ren tactfully withdrew her hand immediately.

"I'm sorry." There was still a pleasant smile in his tone, "To make amends, I invite you for today's meal. Kazuya, what do you want to eat? I was going to take you to a delicious restaurant recommended by a senior before." Great sushi restaurant, but suddenly it snowed and the temperature dropped...Maybe hot pot or barbecue seems to be a more suitable choice in this weather?"

While talking, he looked at Kazuya inquiringly.

Kazuya didn't have anything in particular he wanted to eat, but when Tsuruga Ren mentioned hot pot, he suddenly felt a little craving.

"For hot pot, do you have any recommendations, Lian?"

"Hmm... I seldom eat this. Even if I heard about a good restaurant from others, I haven't tried it myself..."

So the taste is not guaranteed.

The three meals are often served with boxed lunches or even rice balls in convenience stores, and a certain master with an unexpectedly down-to-earth taste looks innocent.

"..." He also no longer wanted to criticize someone's eating habits that were completely incompatible with the words "healthy and reasonable".

During this period of time, he and Lian rarely saw each other often, and they ate together more often. Kazuya also found that if he let the other party take the lead, then most of the time he would take him to only a few shops—without exception. It is the kind with good secrecy and will never be followed and photographed.

Although the taste is also guaranteed, but...

There are really few choices→_→

Moreover, these stores and Ye Guess should be the places that Tsuruga Ren and her partners visited when talking about work. I feel awkward——compared to sitting in a high-end high-end restaurant and eating politely and elegantly, as a young sportsman who is thriving, it is still a large plate of omelet rice and a larger portion of fried pork cutlet rice , large chunks of thick steak, big-name ramen... etc., the food that is full of portions and can be eaten while it is hot is more in line with his heart.

After a few times, Tsuruga Ren also noticed Kazuya's thoughts, and then Kazuya started to take him around—although Tsuruga Ren's identity was a bit troublesome, but fortunately it was winter, he It would not arouse any suspicion if they wrapped up tightly and went out. The two of them chose a dining place and tried to sit in a private room or find a more secluded place to sit. So far, there has never been a situation where Tsuruga Lian was recognized and caused a riot.

Kazuya recalled the various hot pot restaurants he had been to, quickly selected a target, and began to guide Tsuruga Ren.

He's not much of a foodie, but the Uesugi family has had a tradition of eating out as a family on a regular basis for as long as he and Tatsuya can remember.

Probably because when the brothers were young, Shingo was much busier at work than now, so during the few breaks, he would take Haruko and the brothers out for a delicious meal, and find a children's center nearby Or take them to play in the playground, which can be regarded as a parent-child activity in disguise.

So after more than ten years, although Kazuya cannot say that he knows many legendary restaurants whose names are only circulated in the circle of food lovers, he has been to many places, and naturally has his own "food map"—— At least he has done more research than Tsuruga Lian, a guy who usually only uses convenience store food to get rid of himself.

And every time he recommends, he has indeed received great praise from Tsuruga Ren.

"I always feel that if I continue to be recommended like this and the taste becomes more and more picky, the good habit of saving (eating) time (convenience) saving (profit) force (store) that I have maintained for almost three years will be thorough. It's broken."

Someone "complained" in a joking tone.

Then Kazuya took him to eat a super delicious udon restaurant that day, and the two of them felt that their stomachs were full until the day they left, and they didn't even want to talk...

- eat too much qaq

For some reason, he remembered the scene of that day, and Kazuya couldn't help but chuckle.

Someone who was concentrating on driving gave him a sideways glance: "?"

Kazuya waved his hand, "It's nothing. I just thought of something."

As for what it was, he didn't plan to say it, after all, that time he hurt the enemy one thousand and self-damaged eight hundred, and both of them lost face→_→

"I haven't congratulated you yet, but congratulations to "Inference Classroom" for breaking through 25% of the highest ratings."

The car was quiet for a while, and Kazuya stared sideways at the flying scenery outside the window, until passing by another still photo of Tsuruga Ren in "Ninomiya-kun's Reasoning Classroom" - a man wearing a retro detective trench coat and a detective hat , with a very fashionable monocle on his face, with indifferent eyes and a calm expression, his side face is perfect and unbelievably the image of a young detective—a publicity board made with a magnification of n times. There was a certain piece of news in the news, and he turned his head and smiled and said congratulations.

Tsuruga Lian raised the corners of her mouth, "Thank you."

"You seem to be in high spirits, Lian." Kazuya keenly noticed that his emotions were not as high as expected, "Do you think such results still can't satisfy you?"

"...Maybe." Realizing that she was defenseless in front of Kazuya, and her true emotions were easily seen through by the other party again, Tsuruga Ren replied with a wry smile.

"..." He also raised his hand and patted his... thigh comfortingly (don't think about it, it's really just because it's inconvenient for him to pat his shoulders and arms while driving!):

"Don't be too hard on yourself, Lian. After all, it's not the golden age of serial dramas 20 years ago. Although I don't think there's anything wrong with your pursuit of breaking through 30% of the ratings, but in today's world, getting more than 20% is a must. How about being more or less happy in the era when you are entitled to be called 'big popularity'?"

"It's not that you didn't make achievements that surpassed Mr. Ku's. Lian, the achievements you created are not achievements, right?"

"Any breakthrough is worthy of recognition and affirmation, and Lian, you have done well enough—remember? Every time the two of us go out together, we have to be very careful, for fear that we will show a flaw and cause a big commotion... ...This is all thanks to a certain super-popular 'Most Popular Male Artist'?"

"...That's really sorry."

Amidst Kazuya's banter, Tsuruga Ren finally showed a slightly cheerful smile.

"And also."

"Ok?"

"Thank you."

"...You've already said it once before." Facing his friend's smiling face that seemed a little too gentle, Kazuya felt his heartbeat start to stall in a strange way——

This fellow Lian... really deserves to be called the "walking humanoid hormone dispenser" man!

Even men are caught off guard and can't help but fall for it...

"Lian, you'd better not smile."

Because of the deep love that lasted for a whole youth, the baseball boy who always thought that his orientation was ♀ had a serious face and said very solemnly.
