Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home Chapter 441

   Chapter 441 Hello, Yusuke

   "That kind of thing is all right! But as the president of the club, I have to tell you that men who make girls cry are the worst—!"

  's youthful tone carried a kind of hatred and resentment, perhaps even I didn't realize it.

   Kato Yusuke interrupted her indignation, "Are you aware that what you are intervening now is someone else's emotional issue, Eiri."

   "That...that kind of thing...!"

   "So I ask you what qualifications do you have to intervene in my affairs with Shi Yu?"

   "Good, good friend...?"

   "Oh? Are you guys quarreling every now and then?"

   "This...this..."

   "Assuming you have a good relationship, did Shi Yu ask you to do such a thing?"

   "So, who are you acting on behalf of now?"

   "I..." Ying Riri was speechless when asked, her eyes dazed for a while.

   Kato Yusuke dipped ink with a water-dipping pen, maintained his original sitting position, and continued to walk dragons and snakes on the drawing paper, as if nothing could attract his attention.

   "Anyway, instead of thinking about gossip here when you have time, you should do something serious. Whether it's an entry for an art exhibition or a commemorative book for Winter COMI, these are the things you should be concerned about now."

   At the end, his tone was a little stern.

   Ying Lili opened her eyes wide, and a pair of blue and pure eyes gradually swelled with water vapor at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   Although Kato Yusuke didn't say a single heavy word or swearing, and his tone was very calm, it just made her feel wronged! Especially aggrieved!

  Eri Riri stared at him, tears swirling in her eyes, but she couldn't help it.

   Kato Yusuke remained seated behind the desk, turning a blind eye to everything around him, just burying his head in his work, unresponsive like an eternal stone sculpture, cold and solemn.

  Eriri stared at him for a while, then wiped away the gushing tears with the back of her hands, and shouted hoarsely despite her tearful eyes:

   "Yusuke, you're a big idiot—!!"

   After saying that, he turned his back and ran away crying.

   The hurried footsteps quickly disappeared, and the room fell into silence again, as if to engulf people.

   Kato Yusuke drew the manga for a while, and stopped when he finished drawing one of the original pages. Then he took out his mobile phone and called Shinjoka...

That night.

  When Kato Yusuke came home on his newly bought mountain bike, Shinjoka was already waiting here.

   She was still wearing her school uniform, with a one-shoulder schoolbag on her shoulders. She was leaning against the wall of the apartment and playing with her mobile phone, as if she had never returned home.

  —squeak.

   Kato Yusuke parked his mountain bike in the carport downstairs of the apartment, and Kasuka Shinjo, who heard the movement, trotted up.

   "Ah~ President~ Good evening."

   "Well, did you bring something?"

   "Mmmmm~ I brought it."

  Xinjoka first twisted her body and moved her one-shoulder backpack to the front. There was a ding ding dong sound inside, and then she returned to her body and raised her hand to make a crab-like scissors gesture.

   "Ah, but because my mother is very tight, I only had time to get two bottles. Is that enough? President."

   Kato Yusuke nodded slightly and said, come with me.

  The two walked up the stairs to the second floor together, opened the door and entered the room.

  “Meow~”

  The black cat who heard the movement jolts and ran out of the living room. After seeing the stranger, it braked suddenly, stopped in the corridor, and watched the man following its owner vigilantly.

   "Huh~~Is this the cat you raised by the president?" Shinjoka asked curiously.

   Kato Yusuke hummed, took off his shoes and stepped into the corridor, bent over and picked up the black cat.

   The weight is not too light, the hand feel is much softer than before, and even there are some small belly on the stomach, and the heavy feeling is quite the trend of big oranges.

   Shinjoka, who watched for a while in the back, said, "Well, President, do I need to change my shoes?"

   "No, just take off your shoes and come in."

   "Okay~~"

   Kato Yusuke finished speaking and walked inside first, and Shinjoka also walked in after taking off her shoes.

   After entering the living room.

   The black cat was reluctantly placed on the cat climbing frame.

  Xinjoka looked around the room with interest, "Is the president staying here rented?"

   "No, it was left by the family."

   "Hey~ I see, but the traffic around here is very convenient, and the shopping street is also very close, eh~ eh~ Otherwise, can I move here in the future? President."

   Kato Yusuke didn't respond, just asked: "How much is the item, I'll give it to you."

   "Hmm~ 10,000 yen is enough." Shinjoka said, took off the backpack, and took out the two bottles of whisky inside and placed them on the low table.

   Kato Yusuke turned around to get his wallet, and the black cat took the opportunity to jump off the cat climbing frame again, and stared at Shinjoka from a few steps away.

   One person and one cat face each other across the air.

   Shinjoka blinked and extended his right hand friendly, smiling.

   "Hello, I'm the president's pet~ Please give me more advice in the future, Mr. Cat~"

   "Wow!"

   The black cat barked in a slightly sharp tone, his tail swept the floor heavily, and a slight aggression appeared in his eyes,

   From the human body in front of him, it smelled some similar breaths, and involuntarily entered the attack mode, ready to compete with it.

   Just as it was about to launch a charge, its body suddenly lightened.

   "Go to the sun, don't stay here." Kato Yusuke said and put it back on the cat climbing frame, and stuffed a piece of dried small fish into its mouth, then returned to the low table and sat down.

   Sunbathing?

   The black cat first glanced at the night sky with the bright moon hanging outside the window, then took two bites of the dried fish in his mouth, and ate it with great joy.

   Shinjoka smiled and rolled her eyes, thinking that this person and cat are quite loving.

   Kato Yusuke didn't care what she was thinking, he took twenty 10,000 yen bills from his wallet and gave them to him.

   "It's hard work, you can go back."

   "Huh!" Shinjoka blinked in surprise, "Wow, you've given too much, President?"

   "The excess counts as next month."

   "That's it~ I feel like I'll be able to move out soon, thank you~ President."

   Kato Yusuke didn't say anything, just got up and walked to the kitchen to find a cup for himself.

   "Ah~ by the way."

  Xinjoka seemed to remember something, and said again: "On the way to the president's place, I bought some ice cubes and snacks from the nearby convenience store. Do you want me to serve the president?"

   "No, put things on the table, you go home." Kato Yusuke instructed lightly, and began to clean the cup.

   "...Well~ I understand, then I'll go back, President."

"it is good."

   Light footsteps sounded from behind, pounding toward the entrance.

   Xinjoxiang left soon.

   Kato Yusuke returned to the low table with the washed and dried cup, sat down on the carpet, and started adding ice cubes to the cup.

at this time-

  Ding dong~

  The melodious doorbell rang suddenly.

  As a last resort, Kato Yusuke got up again and walked towards the entrance.

  I thought it would be Shinjoka dropping something, but when he opened the door, it was another person who appeared in front of him.

   "Good evening, Yusuke."

  Hui said softly, tilting her head slightly, "I suddenly came to disturb you, can I go in?"

   The girl at the moment is wearing a white top with ruffles, with a simple pink knitted sweater jacket, and a pair of orange cropped pants on the lower body, which looks very homey.

   Kato Yusuke opened his mouth and was about to say something.

   "Well, anyway, I have something to say to you, so I'll interrupt."

  Mei went straight to the entrance, took off her shoes, and walked towards the living room.

   Kato Yusuke was stunned for a while with a slightly serious tone, but when he reacted, the girl had already entered the living room and stopped in front of the low table.

   Two or three seconds later.

   "Hey, Yusuke, can I trouble you to come here?"

   Kato Yusuke closed the door and stepped into the living room with slightly heavy steps, stopping two steps behind the girl.

   On the low table, the glass that had just been filled with ice was still there, next to it were various snacks brought by Shinjo incense and the two bottles of wine.

   All the criminal evidence is readily available at a glance.

   "It's so late, something..."

   "I ask you, Yusuke."

   Megumi, who had withdrawn her gaze from the low table, interrupted him and looked back.

   "After school today, Yingri called me. She was crying a lot on the phone. I thought it was necessary to talk to Yusuke, so I came here."

   Kato Yusuke frowned slightly, "What did she say?"

   "I think about it, how can I say it better... Basically, because there are parts I can't understand in Eiri's words, but probably Kasumigaoksenpai and the others seem very sad, right?"

  Mei paused here for a while, then turned around and faced him with a bit of inquiry in her eyes.

   "So, what happened between you two?"

   Kato Yusuke paused and replied, "Nothing."

   "Then, Yusuke, did you break up with Kasugaoksenpai? Or are you still dating?"

   A brief silence.

"neither."

   "Huh? What does this mean?"

   "We're not dating, we're not breaking up, we're just being together." Kato Yusuke said slowly.

   Hearing this, Megumi lost her mind for a while, then raised her hand lightly and pressed it on her chest. It took a while to understand this sentence, her eyes became a little more serious.

   "Well, I may have misunderstood, but Yusuke's statement sounds like Kasumigaoksenpai is your lover? Isn't that the case?"

   Kato Yusuke neither admitted nor denied this, but just stared at the girl's expression at the moment.

   The two looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

   seems to feel the unusual atmosphere. The black cat who originally wanted to go to the ground also stayed on the cat climbing frame and watched silently.

  The ice cubes on the table gradually melted, and a small circle of liquid slowly dripped on the table.

   Just a few beats apart.

  Mei seemed to have gotten the answer, her eyes moved slightly, and she asked, "Why, do you want to do such a thing...?"

   Kato Yusuke thought for a while, and replied without emotion: "Nothing, a special reason."

   is accompanied by the moment when the voice settles.

   It was like a strange emotion pierced through my chest and hit my heart.

  Mei opened her eyes slightly, her delicate eyebrows knitted together, and looked at him with eyes full of confusion and inconceivable, as if she knew him for the first time.

   Kato Yusuke was also the first time he saw this kind of look on the face of a girl, as if it was a little tingling, so he instinctively turned his face to the floor to the side and muttered.

   "...This matter has nothing to do with Megumi, you can go back."

   Dong Dong Dong, heavy footsteps sounded.

   A pleasant fragrance hits.

   The light I saw in the peripheral vision suddenly dimmed for a moment.

  Next second…

-Snapped!

   A crisp sound suddenly sounded in the room.

   A pain rose from the left half of the cheek.

   "You are too much! Yusuke...!"

   The girl's trembling, soft voice came clearly into her ears, as if she had cut open the depths of his chest.

   As if a heavy hammer had hit his chest, Kato Yusuke raised his hand and grabbed the uniform on his chest, feeling a dull pain, even more than his left face that was starting to get hot.

   He raised his head silently, and in front of him was a girl with a complicated expression, looking a little disappointed and sad.

   Kato Yusuke's pupils dilated and contracted, and his chest suddenly tightened.

   He tried to raise his hand, like when he was drawing a cartoon, to erase the other person's expression at the moment, but he stopped halfway up, looked away from the other person, and said in a low voice:

   "I'm sorry, I didn't want you to show that look."

   Seeing his reaction, a complex shadow cast on Megumi's face, and he took a small breath and said, "...Sorry, I'll go to the bathroom."

   After saying that, he lowered his head and walked quickly towards the outside.

  —snap.

  As the door closed, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.

   Kato Yusuke stood there, his fists clenched tightly, his expression slightly distorted.

   "Meow...~" The black cat jumped off the cat climbing frame, barked timidly, and gently rubbed his head against his leg, as if to comfort him.

   Kato Yusuke swallowed his throat heavily, then squatted down, reached out and patted its furry head lightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

   "Nothing, everything will be fine."

"Meow…"

   The black cat croaked softly, and fell to the ground, exposing its soft belly, and hooked its paws.

   Kato Yusuke stretched out his hand and rubbed its stomach, and it narrowed its eyes comfortably, and the throat was rumbling like a blower.

   The low and soothing white voice floats into the ears, and the touch from the hand is warm and soft.

   With the help of the black cat, Kato Yusuke gradually calmed down, locked up the emotions that had just emerged, and put them into the corner of his heart.

   The palm prints on his face were bright red.

   Kato Yusuke suddenly had a hunch that tonight might be longer than usual...
