Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home Chapter 744

  Chapter 744 August's Last Carnival

the other side.

  Yusuke Kato and his team came to the area to watch the fireworks show.

  He wanted to take a random place, but found that he didn't bring any mats that could be spread on the ground.

   It would be fine if he was the only one, but Shiyu and the others couldn't just sit on the ground, no matter what, they had to clean up.

   Just when he was at a loss for what to do, Kanoko Hasumi quite naturally took out a family picnic mat and spread it out neatly on the ground.

   Seeing this, Yusuke Kato frowned instantly, thinking that this kind of carefulness really has the style of Kano.

  Looking around, other tourists also brought their own picnic mats, looking around for a suitable viewing location.

  The friends took off their shoes one after another, sat down on the picnic mat, and waited for the fireworks show to start.

  Yusuke Kato thought for a while, and said, "I'll go and buy something to eat while it's still a while. What do you all want to eat?"

  Faced with his inquiry, the four women also gave an unceremonious answer.

  French fries, takoyaki, fried chicken nuggets, chicken cakes, apple candy, marshmallows... All kinds of food rushed towards him like a list of dishes.

   "Uh, okay, I want these, right? I see." Kato Yusuke nodded with a wry smile, but he didn't expect the response to be so enthusiastic.

  But he was the only guy on the scene, so things like running errands would naturally be done by him.

  He was about to go shopping when Ying Lili stood up for some reason.

   "Wait a minute, I'll go shopping with you."

   "No, no, just sit and rest, I can go alone."

   "Huh? Are you an idiot? How could you get so many things by yourself?"

   "It's really not necessary, I just ask the boss for a few more bags to wrap it up, so as not to affect everyone's food."

   "Hello!" Ying Lili stared, put her hands on her waist and said, "I told you to go with you, didn't you understand??"

  Hearing this, Kato Yusuke, who was waving his hands repeatedly last second, immediately changed his face, and said righteously:

   "I'm so sorry, you are so right! Please do me this favor!"

   "Huh~" Eiriri raised her chin triumphantly, said "It's not too bad", and then grabbed Kato Yusuke's sleeve and left.

  Seeing this, Nakano Ryoko had a strange look in his eyes, and asked, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hasumi, Kasumigaoksan, is Yu-kun always like this?"

   "Haha." Kanoko Hasumi said with a smile, "Kato-kun is like that sometimes, Nakano-san, don't be surprised~"

   "No." Ryoko Nakano shook her head lightly, "I'm just a little curious, nothing else, I'm being rude."

  Shi Yu said casually: "Senior, you don't have to worry about it. You Jiang's face is actually quite thick. What he is best at is deliberately showing weakness to please girls."

   "...Is that so~?" Ryoko Nakano smiled and said, "It's really surprising, it turns out that Yu-kun also has such a side."

   "Well, he wears a lot of masks, no matter who he is, he will at least keep a point, and hide his true heart cunningly..."

   "Uh, Kasumigaoksan...?"

   "Well, but he is surprisingly childish in front of senior sisters, unlike us who always pretend to be mature." Shi Yu said old-fashioned.

  Ryoko Nakano blinked her eyelashes, and finally smiled politely, without saying anything.

   Back to Kato Yusuke.

  He and Ying Lili ran around looking for all kinds of delicacies, but the progress was not smooth.

  The opening of the fireworks show is approaching, and everyone wants to replenish food during this time, which leads to a long queue in front of almost every booth, and the degree of crowding is prohibitive.

   Kato Yusuke looked at this scene with a headache, and could only give priority to those booths with few people in line.

  Although he knew that it would be more efficient for two people to buy separately, Ying Lili didn't mean that at all. She basically followed him every step of the way, and she followed him wherever he went to line up.

  Yusuke Kato couldn't say anything about it, so she could only hold her hand tightly so as not to get separated, and moved between the stalls with difficulty.

at last.

  He bought a marshmallow, two fried noodles, three Okonomiyaki, two frankfurters and two chocolate bananas.

  Compared with the names of the dishes reported fifteen minutes ago, the actual food bought is basically not as good as it is.

   But considering the situation at the scene, there was no way to do it. Who told him that he didn't have extra time?

   While thinking about how to explain it when I go back, I stuffed all the food I bought into a plastic bag.

  Yusuke Kato nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, buying this much should be enough for everyone, let's go back."

  Eriri peeped at his expression, and said with a little confusion: "...Hey, Yusuke, can you go somewhere with me?"

   "What's the matter? Do you want to go to the bathroom? I can go with you, but you have to hurry up, after all, we don't have much time."

   "—That's not it!" Ying Lili gave him a hard look, and said angrily: "Let's go to the top platform of the shrine."

   "What?" Kato Yusuke was stunned, and said in surprise: "It's just a little higher there, so it shouldn't make any difference for watching fireworks, right?"

   "Troubleshooting! Just obediently follow me." Ying Lili stretched out her hand as she spoke, and forced him to move forward.

   Kato Yusuke sighed softly, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd, so he could only follow along.

  By the way, both of his hands are covered with plastic bags, and he is so busy.

  Ying Lili, who had offered to help before, was tugging on his sleeve with one hand and holding cotton candy in the other, and had no intention of helping at all.

  'In the end, what are you here for...' Kato Yusuke thought a little depressed, wondering if this is any different from coming alone?

  The girl ignored his complaints and trotted ahead to lead the way. The golden twin horses swayed in the wind, and even the camellias on the hair accessories swayed, which was very beautiful.

   They quickly reached the highest platform of the shrine and found a random place to stand together.

   The feeling of looking into the distance from here is indeed a bit different from the one below.

  Overlooking from the high platform, the shrine is decorated with lights and festoons, shining like a star city in heaven.

   "And then?" Kato Yusuke didn't understand, so he said, "We came here on purpose, what's the matter?"

  Ying Lili squinted her eyes, her azure blue pupils rolled around, as if she was planning something.

   "...Yukata." She started her voice in a low voice, with a little excitement and shyness in her tone, "You wore the bathrobe I gave you, I think it suits you well... very handsome~"

   Kato Yusuke was taken aback, becoming more and more confused. Is it because of this that she took so much trouble to bring him here?

  However, the other party's innocent expression at the moment prevented him from asking this question, so he smiled wryly and nodded in greeting.

   "Thank you, I think Yingli is cute tonight too?"

  Ying Lili frowned, as if she heard his perfunctory, she stretched out her small hand and wrung his forearm severely.

   "Hiss~It hurts."

   "Hmph, who told you to be perfunctory~"

  The girl squinted at him, then took his arm naturally, "Take the bag away, it's dirty my clothes."

  Yusuke Kato obeyed obediently, and replaced the plastic bag in his right hand with his left hand, and Eirika leaned forward.

   "Hey, Yusuke, did you apologize to Kei?"

"…What?"

   "So I'm asking if you apologized to Hui? Actually, I invited her to the festival yesterday, but she refused."

  After hearing this, Yusuke Kato was silent for a moment, then shook his head slowly.

  Of course he apologized to Hui, and more than once, but unfortunately the other party never replied to him once, as if he was still angry.

   "Is that so..." Seeing his reaction, Ying Lili lowered her head sadly and muttered in distress.

   After a moment, she suddenly raised her head, looked directly into his eyes, and said:

   "Cheer up! I like Hui, and I like everyone. You have to take responsibility to reconcile with Hui and bring her back. I don't care so much about the rest. Do you understand?"

   "Well..." Kato Yusuke touched his nose, "You said this last time, I always remember it... I'm sorry, I made you worry."

  Ying Lili narrowed her eyes, "Do you really remember?"

   "I remember, I remember, it's true, I will deal with Kei's problem as soon as possible, so we can go back?"

   "...wait a little longer."

   "Huh? But the fireworks show is only a few minutes away..."

   "So what?" Ying Lili held his arm tightly and said impatiently, "I want to watch the fireworks with you two..."

  Yusuke Kato was slightly taken aback: "Sorry, I'm not very sensible, but I can't watch it for too long? After all, everyone is waiting for us."

   "There will be thousands of fireworks here, you don't need to accompany me all of them, but at least you can watch ten of them with me, right?"

  As the voice fell—

   "Shoot bang—!"

  The first firework hit the night sky, bursting into bright crimson flowers.

  Ying Lili raised her head in response, staring at the lit night sky, sparks rained in her beautiful pupils.

   "Yusuke! The fireworks are so beautiful~!" The girl shouted excitedly, her ingenious facial features were extraordinarily beautiful under the reflection of the fireworks.

   Kato Yusuke quietly stared at her side face, his expression softened, and then he also looked up at the night sky.

   One shot, two shots, three shots.

  The unprecedentedly huge moon hangs high in the sky, as if you can reach out and touch its outline.

   Four shots, five shots, six shots.

  The loud sound shook the eardrums, and the quiet and lonely shrine was decorated with colorful colors.

   "Yusuke." Ying Lili let go of his arm, and said suddenly: "Open your mouth."

   "What?" Kato Yusuke turned his head incomprehensibly, two slender white fingers pressed against his lips, and stuffed a small piece of marshmallow into his mouth.

  The fluffy sugar shreds immediately melted on the tongue, sweet and greasy with a cool touch of fingers.

   "Ah..." Ying Lili withdrew her hand like a frightened deer, put her fingertips wrapped in sugar into her mouth, and asked with flickering eyes: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

  Kato Yusuke was taken aback, his calm mood suddenly surged, and he swallowed the marshmallow helplessly and amusedly.

   Seven shots, eight shots, nine shots.

   Before you know it, the time for the two-person fireworks is coming to an end.

  The next moment, Ying Lili suddenly put one hand on his shoulder and stood on tiptoe, bringing her face closer—

   "—Jiu."

  The small lips pressed against his lips, sucked lightly, and then slowly parted.

  As if someone slowed down the hands of the clock, the tenth firework hit the night sky belatedly.

  Accompanied by the loud "swoosh bang", a soft whisper also reached Kato Yusuke's ears.

   "—Honey, I like you~"

boom! clatter~

  The fireworks bloomed, illuminating the surroundings like daytime.

  Kato Yusuke unconsciously pursed his lips, and said softly: "...so sweet."

   "Of course, it's cotton candy after all~"

  Ying Lili looked at him with a crooked smile, her clear and bright eyes were full of love, and her long and curly eyelashes fluttered under the brilliant fireworks, as delicate as a porcelain doll.

   When they returned to everyone, they were interrogated as expected.

  Shi Yu frowned slightly, looked back and forth between them, and asked, "Why are you two so slow? Where did you sneak off to date?"

   "...!" Eriri's body froze suddenly, she waved her hand guiltily, and ran to sit down next to Kanoko Hasumi.

  However, the three women present were all human beings. Seeing her unnatural appearance, they didn't know that something was wrong, and their eyes became subtle.

  Yusuke Kato rubbed his nose resentfully, and the original plan to vaguely mention it also fell through, so he had to find an excuse to shift the focus.

   "I'm sorry, there are too many people at the stall, I couldn't buy what everyone wanted, but the food is also delicious."

  Shi Yu glanced at him up and down, but unexpectedly didn't intend to pursue it, and didn't know if this was considered special preferential treatment for allies.

  Ryoko Nakano smiled and said, "Thank you, Yu-kun, what did you buy?"

   "Sister, I recommend chocolate bananas and frankfurters." Kato Yusuke said, passing the bought food to everyone.

  Kanoko Hasami said: "Ah, there is Okonomiyaki, Xiaoshi, shall we share it?"

  Shi Yu nodded lazily, and replied yes.

  At this time, Ying Lili came up unwillingly.

   "Yusuke, I want to eat Okonomiyaki too, feed me~!"

  Shi Yu: "—!"

   Kato Yusuke's scalp numb, and cold sweat broke out.

  He pretended not to notice the gaze piercing from behind, picked up a small piece of Okonomiyaki with his chopsticks, and decided to get rid of the little thing like Yinglili first.

   Incidentally, the reason why he did this was not out of partiality, but because he wanted to come one by one in order.

   Facing his feeding, Ying Lili closed her eyes happily, and opened her mouth "ah~" to enjoy, but—

   "I'll eat it!" Shiwa, who came out from the side, ate the Okonomiyaki in one bite.

   "What! Kasumigaoka Shiwa—!?" Eiriri suddenly opened her eyes and yelled.

   "Huh? Excuse me, do you want to eat first?"

  Shiwa snatched the chopsticks from Kato Yusuke as if nothing had happened, picked up all the remaining Okonomiyaki, and brought it to Eirari's mouth.

   "Here, Sawamura, let me feed you this big mouthful."

   "I don't want you to feed-!!!" Ying Lili yelled loudly.

  Everyone laughed out loud when they saw this.

  The small episode heated up the atmosphere, and everyone's face was filled with smiles.

  Boom boom boom.

   slap, slap, slap, slap.

  Fireworks hit the night sky one after another, celebrating the last carnival in August in a gorgeous and noisy way.

   As time passed, the festival came to an end.

  ──Boom!

  The last firework soared into the sky.

  Yusuke Kato looked up at the night sky, witnessing the slow blooming of the giant Corona Chrysanthemum, which finally turned into a **** and fell reluctantly.

  In the silence that followed, the white smoke disappeared into the dark night like the credit list of the movie.

"see you next year."

  Ryoko Nakano murmured, her voice was as thin as a fairy stick.

   Kato Yusuke sighed inaudibly, and nodded slowly.

   "Well, see you next year."
