I followed Shinsao to a small shop at the back of the shopping street.

The store is not big, only about ten square meters, and the store door is very narrow, just enough for one person to pass through.Probably because it was too inconspicuous, even when it was time for dinner, there were no customers in the store.

Xinsao picked a corner seat familiarly and beckoned me to sit down.

"Are you familiar with this store?" I put my schoolbag on the seat beside me and picked up a menu.

The dishes on the menu are all very common home dishes, from omurice to udon noodles, and it is not even obvious which one is a special dish.

"That's right." Xinsao took the menu in my hand, walked to the cashier and shouted "Two ochazuke rice" in the kitchen, and then walked back slowly, "I suggest Don't order anything else."

I froze for a moment, "Why?"

"Because it's hard to eat." The boy replied.

"...Is his ochazuke delicious?"

"No, it's very average," the other party's voice was steady without any fluctuations, "but the ochazuke won't taste bad no matter how you do it."

It makes sense and I'm speechless.

I silently took out the cookies in my schoolbag, opened the bag and picked the one that looked the best and took a bite, "Then why did you bring me here, isn't it delicious?"

"I just want to show you. I come here every year for my birthday." Xin Cao paused for a few seconds before replying in a low voice, "The owner of this shop is a friend of my father. He used to be a professional hero before he was injured. Retired, opened a small shop here to pass the time."

I said "oh".

No one cares about the lives of professional heroes after retirement. For ordinary people, the retired heroes are ordinary people like them.Once out of the public eye, those people will be submerged in the crowd, never to be seen again.

What this society needs are heroes, not ordinary people.

During the conversation, two servings of chazuke were served.The moment I saw the food in the bowl, I believed Shinsao's words.I have eaten a lot of ochazuke, delicious and unpalatable, but such a bland ochazuke is really unexpected, and I even feel a little sorry for the price on the menu.

However, as Shinsao said, a simple dish like ochazuke will not be unpalatable, so it will not feel difficult to swallow.

After finishing the ochazuke, the boss brought up a cream cake that was not too big. There was a "15" candle on the cake, which should have just been lit, and the shape of the candle was still complete.

Shinsao pushed the bowl aside.

I supported my head with my right hand, and the boss turned on the lights in the store.Although it is summer, the store is too small, so the interior is not as bright as I imagined.

"You blow out the candles?" I raised my eyelids.

The boy moved the cake a little in front of me, "Blow it on."

I gave him a slightly suspicious look.Probably due to the light, Shinsao's facial features were softened a lot, and even the impression of others changed a little.If Xinsao is usually a sharp hedgehog, then now he is more like a docile dog.

A little bit surprised.

I'm not a mother-in-law. Since the birthday star himself said he wanted me to blow out the candles, I don't intend to refuse.

So he stood up with his hands on the dining table, and blew out the half-burned candle under the young man's probing eyes.

As the candles were extinguished, the room darkened again.

"Make a wish."

Shinsou's voice traveled through the air to his ears.His tone was as calm as ever, but with a little tentativeness, as if he was afraid that I would refuse.

I was stunned for a moment, then sat down on the chair as if reacting immediately, clasped my hands following the other party's wishes, and made a moderate wish.

I hope my next plan will go well.

Even I want to do something for my mind.

When he put his hands back on the table, the boy called the shopkeeper to turn on the light.The sudden bright vision made people feel a little uncomfortable.I blinked hard twice, trying to get rid of the dizziness caused by the changing light.

"Let's eat the cake." Xin Cao took a pastry knife from the boss and cut the birthday cake in front of me.

I don't know if he bought the cake himself or asked the boss to buy it for him.The style is a layer cake that is very popular recently, and the girls in the same class mentioned this when chatting between classes.

The boy first cut a piece and handed it to me, and then cut another piece and handed it to the boss standing aside.

I used a fork to fork a small piece of cake and put it on the plate. I wanted to swallow it but felt it was not appropriate, so I raised my head and looked at the boy's still calm face: "...Why do you want me to blow out the candles?"

Hearing the words, the other party raised his head and looked into my eyes as if he had been prepared.

"I thought you weren't going to ask," he said. "For no particular reason. You don't know when your birthday is?"

I subconsciously forked the small piece of cake and stuffed it into my mouth, "What does this have to do with asking me to blow out the candles?"

"Do you like summer?" The other party suddenly asked an endless question.

"……so so."

To be honest, I don't have a good impression of Xia Tian.The sound of cicadas reminded me of an afternoon when I hugged my knees and stared at the toes of my shoes. The strong smell of blood mixed with the smell of decay permeated the narrow room, making people feel dizzy.

But I don't hate this season.

Xinsao is born in this season, how can I hate it?

"It's fine if you don't hate it," the young man smiled slightly when he heard the words, "Do you think July [-]st is suitable for birthday?"

I suddenly raised my head to look at Xinsao.

What kind of strange speech is this?

I think I should look stupid the way I am now.The half-chewed cake was still stuck in my mouth, and the corner of my mouth was covered with cream. In the bright light, the boy's eyes followed mine, but I couldn't see clearly what he was thinking.

It's obviously Xin Cao's birthday today.

I swallowed the cake forcefully, "...Even if it's not suitable, you were born on this day, weren't you?"

"It's not me, it's you." He said, "If you don't have a birthday, I will share my birthday with you."

"Are you a fool?!"

I stared dumbfounded at the expression on the other person's face, and suddenly felt that I could no longer understand his crazy thoughts.

Give me my birthday?How to divide?Is this guy serious?

Seemingly seeing what I was thinking, the boy smiled and stood up. He reached out and wiped off the cream on the corner of my mouth, "Isn't there no one to celebrate your birthday? After sharing my birthday with you, we will celebrate it together

——"Even if everyone doesn't remember your birthday, I will.

——"As long as I can remember this day, someone will celebrate it for you.

——"Because I am more grateful than anyone else for being born in this world, Nuxu!"

The author has something to say:

Xin Cao: Let me share my birthday with you

Hostess: Don't be an idiot
