[Comprehensive] Die well, lie down every day

The words of Tsunayoshi Sawada four days ago reminded me that I am still a high school student, so today I can only get out of bed early, dig out the uniform from the closet and put it on.

After finishing everything, I walked out the door, but because I didn't know the address of this girl Sasaki's school, I could only stop bitterly, and finally dialed Takeshi Yamamoto's contact number after a long period of psychological struggle.But I can't get in touch with him.

Staring at the phone for a long time, I had to choose to contact Tsunayoshi Sawada, who I didn't want to contact.

"That..." I took a deep breath, "I wanted to find Takeshi Yamamoto, but when I went to your house yesterday, I found that we were in a straight line. If you don't mind Kyoko, please let me go with you. School!" After I finished speaking, I held my breath and waited for his reply, but I didn't have much hope that he would agree.

I always feel that under normal circumstances, no girl would agree to the request of going to school with another girl who obviously has a crush on her boyfriend and has done something to her, right?

At least I will be suspicious, for example, there is a purpose or something.

"Ah, that's fine." The guy on the other end of the phone readily agreed, "Yamamoto...has a competition recently, probably at the training ground, and Kyoko hasn't come back yet."

I breathed a sigh of relief, and then let go of my anxiety about not knowing how to face Kyoko Sasakawa later.

Then he said: "Then I can wait here at my house? It just so happens that you are passing by here too."

I was afraid that he would repent, so I quickly replied that I would do it this way. After hanging up the call, I looked at the nearby scenery and felt that a day of good luck was about to begin.But the heavens will not obey people's wishes, and the malice of the world will not let me go.

A few minutes after I left, my phone rang a tone I didn't even want to hear. "...This time, what is it?" I called out all the names of gods and Buddhas I could call out in my heart before I dared to scroll down the content of the message.

The task this time is very strange, the goal is that from now until midnight, I cannot refuse anyone's arbitrary request.And this time it was a strange mandatory task, there was no reward for success, and punishment for failure.

The most important thing is that I don't know what the punishment is, so I can only think about the worst.

And things obviously won't go my way so easily.One second after receiving this task, Grandma Toshi called me and told me that the izakaya was short of staff, and asked if I could help.

"Don't worry, I told them that you are not allowed to receive guests, you are just working in the background. Ah... Speaking of which, you still have to go to class? Is it okay?" The voice of Granny Dengshi's concern as always came from the opposite side, and I can only cry here.

"Yes, I'm going to—" I silently thought about the unspecified punishment in that text message, so I had no choice but to swallow the words of rejection. "...I'm fine."

Turning back and walking in the direction of Kabukicho, halfway I remembered the appointment I made with Sawada, so I had to send him a text message saying that I still don’t have class today. "What to write...'Today I have something to do and it's inconvenient to go to school, Zetian, you should go by yourself' like this." The moment the text message was edited and pressed to confirm, I felt like my fingers were being poked and hurt like an electric shock .

To be honest, the pain is no longer bearable.

I stared at the text message and suddenly my head turned. "Is this also a refusal?!" Then I deleted that text message and got another shock, "Just type 'you go alone'!!" I was so shocked that tears burst out of my eyes. , but after sending such a text message, I was still electrocuted.

Before this, I never knew that the feeling of being electrocuted by static electricity in winter could be so painful.The specific feeling is the same as tearing off the barb on the hand and accidentally tearing the blood.

"...I'm most afraid of this kind of thing." I waved my hands away, simply ignored the issue of information or not, and headed straight to Kabukicho.

On the way to Kabukicho, I did the following things in total: sent two lost children to the police station, paid for an office worker who was short of money to take the bus, and helped a handsome boy buy a Cans of soda, and helping a cat-owning resident catch cats.

And every sentence these people said to me began with "Can you help me...".

So I spent three and a half hours on the road today, and it was extremely difficult to reach Granny Dengshi's shop.

"It's finally here. What's the matter with you? You look very embarrassed." Grandma Dengshi looked at me in surprise, and quickly poured a glass of water for me who was panting like a dog.

I don't care if I can't drink water immediately after strenuous exercise, I just send the water to my mouth with a grunt. "Wow..." After drinking it, I gasped, and I finally felt a lot better. After handing the empty water glass back to Grandma Dengshi, I waved my hand again: "Grandma Dengshi, don't ask. Simply put, I feel like I've done all the good things I've neglected my whole life."

She looked at me for a while with a look of confusion, but she didn't continue to ask. "Is that so, and then you decide what to do later? Because I didn't expect you to come so early, so I first told the store manager over there that you wouldn't come until around four o'clock in the afternoon."

"Whatever..." I replied vaguely, "It depends on your arrangement, mother-in-law."

"Since that's the case...you can do whatever you want. Anyway, this place is very free now. You can stay here to do some trivial work while waiting for time, or go outside or go upstairs to rest."

I thought about it and decided to choose the first one. "Please let me work!"

From then on until four o'clock, I sat idle in Grandma Dengshi's shop, occasionally serving tea or something when a customer came, and the busiest time was only two hours at noon, and then I ran away because of the commission. Mr. Gintoki, who was not at home, took a nap, and I cleaned up around the same time, said hello to my mother-in-law, and went to the izakaya.

"Sure enough, it's exactly as Grandma Toshi said," the manager of the izakaya, Smile Bar looked at me and praised, "Miss Mayu is really a beautiful girl."

"No, it's not as good as what the store manager said." I replied politely, and the pain in my fingers made my whole face contort.

The store manager's unmoving smile froze for a moment when he saw me, and he patted his head and laughed. "Don't worry, don't worry, Miss Mayu won't be allowed to receive guests, ah ha ha ha..." The laughter behind was almost like I was afraid that I would tear him down.

...The store manager, don't look at me with such a scared expression!I just had a sore finger! !

"...Thank you, manager..." I didn't dare to say anything negative like sorry, you're welcome, and followed the manager to the back of the izakaya in frustration.

The things in the back are also relatively easy, just helping pass a menu or occasionally fetching a bottle of wine for the hostess in front, but I think the store manager deliberately arranged a relatively easy job for me.

Ah, after all, when Ms. A Miao saw me here before, she crushed the bar counter with one hand, and looked at the store manager with a dark face.

"Mayuki! Come and help me!"

"Okay, I'll come!"

The more troublesome thing is that occasionally someone asks me to help, and no matter what it is, I can't refuse it.It's not that they made it difficult for me on purpose, it's just that there are some jobs that I really can't do alone.

"Ah, that's right. Mayu help me carry this case of wine... Well, Mayu can't do it alone, right?"

"……no problem…"

like this.

At the beginning, I didn't pay attention and said, 'I'm a bit uncomfortable alone', but the result was so painful that I almost knocked over a row of wine on the wine cabinet.

"Thank you, Mayu." The store manager nodded at me with a smile. "Although I'm officially starting to get busy now, Mayu has been working for a long time. Let's go to the front and take a break. It happens that the boss of Wanshiwu is also here."

I tried to make a fist, but found that I didn't have the strength to squeeze it tightly. "Then thank you boss! I will continue to work later." It just happened to be a loophole.

Ah, the people in Kabukicho are all kind people that are rare to meet, and I was worried about what to do if I asked for a break and the other party refused.I stretched my waist and walked towards the main battlefield of the izakaya curiously.

"Aren't you—!" A certain white-haired curly pointed at me excitedly.

"...He's a substitute, anyway, there are a series of unspeakable reasons." I followed his example and stared at a pair of dead fish eyes, then stretched out my hand and slowly bent his index finger back. "Didn't you leave Kagura and Shinpachi behind and come here?"

Mr. Yinshi withdrew his hand, put on a face, and said, "Xinpachi, that eye boy is busy at the Atong concert, and Kagura is too full to lie down at home, bastard! So Yin, I took time out of my busy schedule." Take a break, it’s not like you who called ‘Mr. Sakata, Mr. Sakata’ a few days ago and used Ayin as a coolie.” His words were not so much to make me jealous, he was enjoying leisurely , It would be better to say that I think he is complaining. "Besides, the pachinko game hall is undergoing upgrades and maintenance, and there is no other place to go. It happened to be caught by that dead old woman to check on your situation. Otherwise, you think that Ah Yin is willing to come. ."

"Oh? What are you talking about, Yin?" Miss A Miao, who was serving at the side, looked at Mr. Yinshi with a smile. "Does it mean to have three more bottles of tompelli?"

"Hey!!! Don't yell casually, you bastard! Do you think Ah Yin is the kind of nouveau riche who can spend a thousand yen casually?!"

... A bottle of Dong Peli seems to be more than this price, right?

Oh no.In other words, Mr. Sakata Gintoki, you simply have no money and no place to go, so you have to come here to catch up with acquaintances.

I sighed and turned around to go back to work, but Mr. Yinshi grabbed my arm and pulled me, which caused me to fall onto him. The posture was just right, as if I was sitting on his lap on purpose. "..."

This reminds me of the time when I was just working, I happened to meet Mr. Lancer sitting on a park bench when I was wandering around in the afternoon when there were few people. I wanted to ask him if he could let me sit next to him. But that person said, "Can I sit on the side? Ah, let alone sit on the side, you can even lean on me. If Miss is willing, you can sit on my lap."

To be honest, I was intimidated at the time, but Mr. Lancer's expression was so upright that I felt that I was too fussy.

"Nana, Ah Yin, I didn't do it on purpose!" Mr. Yinshi hurriedly let go of his hand, waving his hands in a panic.And I stood up quickly from him, so as not to be accidentally touched where I shouldn't be touched again.

Ms. A Miao waved at me to let me go in and ignore the guys here, but not long after I walked in, the store manager looked at me with a sad face: "Hey, it's because... a customer named you... "
