Chapter 352 The Girl's First Visit
"Your parents have been unable to reach the phone number. Remember to ask them to stamp this notice when you go back."
Kicked out of school earlier than usual, Kato Yusuke could only go back to the apartment, with Mr. Shibata's voice still ringing in his ears.
He hung his schoolbag and sports backpack on the hooks on the wall, and sat down at the table.
Looking at the disciplinary notice in his hand, Yusuke couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Do you want to contact the parents...
Just as he was thinking this way, two slender cylindrical objects appeared on the table out of thin air.
Kato Yusuke frowned, his expression became a little weird.
Reaching out to hold it in your hand, take off the cover with a bang.
A brief silence spread across the room.
Immediately...
"...You are actually like this, System."
"..."
"It turns out that you have always played the role of parents?"
"..."
Kato Yusuke grumbled a few words reluctantly, faintly feeling that he was being taken advantage of, but the system was still taciturn and would not respond to him unless necessary.
So he stopped teasing, silently picked up two seals, and stamped them on the confirmation column on the notice.
According to the school's punishment for him and Saito, although he was not the one who took the initiative, the school still chose to take a one-size-fits-all approach, and made a move of [-] big boards for each side.
Normally, both of them have to stay at home to reflect during this period, and are neither allowed to go out nor go to school.
However, compared to him, an idler who returned to the house, Saito, who is an indispensable main force of the basketball club, still received certain preferential treatment.
That is, although you cannot attend classes, you can still participate in basketball training after school.
As for the injury on Saito's hand, because Yusuke didn't want to cause trouble at the time, he didn't hurt his muscles and bones, but it was a little swollen, and he could go down in two or three days.
After such a calculation, in the end, it was Yusuke who was looking for trouble and suffered a disadvantage.
Things were so realistic, but Yusuke didn't bother to care about anything, after all, he didn't come here to go to school, so he accepted the result without much resistance.
Even so, considering the possible follow-up effects of this matter, he still specifically asked Mr. Misaki, hoping that the other party could take care of Sayu and Yuko during this time.
Because of the favor from the previous golf tournament, Misaki-sensei readily agreed.
So Kato Yusuke no longer has any worries, and at the same time can free up his hands to do other things.
During the period, in order not to worry Sayu, he also fully informed the other party of the development of the matter.
Judging from the current time, this should be the second class in the afternoon, and I thought I would receive a reply later.
As a result, not long after putting down the phone, the LINE notification sounded "Ding Dong".
It was Sayu who replied, but compared to his long explanation, the girl's message was only three short words - "Understood."
Kato Yusuke was a little dissatisfied and started typing.
[Iwanami: Is your reaction too cold? 】
【Sayu: ...I want to ask, why are you still in the mood to joke? 】
[Iwanami: There is a week to skip classes reasonably, is it something you should worry about? 】
【Sayu: ...idiot. 】
[Iwanami: Is this your expression now? ——(unhappy puffed cheeks.jpg)]
【Sayu: It’s like this—(angry.jpg)】
【Iwanami: This is pretty cute too. 】
Although the mark became read, the other side didn't come back immediately.
Kato Yusuke didn't know if the girl was thinking about what to get back, or if she was caught by the teacher because she secretly played with her mobile phone in class.
I imagined that scene in my mind a little bit.
Either way, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Free thoughts began to expand, making people feel a little lonely inexplicably.
At this moment, he wanted to hug the girl opposite for no reason.
【Iyanami: I'll pick you up after school. 】
【Sayu: ... What are you talking about?Now is the lockdown period, please stay at home. 】
[Iwanami: Although it would be a little strange to say this, I really want to see you now. 】
【Sayu: ... cat or dog? 】
[Yanbo:? ? 】
【Sayu: Choose one. 】
[Iwanami: Cat. 】
【Sayu: But your performance is more like the dog side. 】
[Iwanami: What do you mean? 】
He hesitated for a few seconds.
Ding dong.
【Sayu: ... clingy, very annoying. 】
Kato Yusuke was stunned for a moment, and then a soft smile appeared on his face, as if he had eaten the milk candy he ate when he was a child, and he was a little nostalgic.
[Iyanami: What tone are you using to type this passage now? 】
【Sayu: ...What are you doing? 】
[Iwanami: No, I just think you are cute. 】
【Sayu: I'll show you this—(Cat's photo.jpg)】
[Iwanami: What are you doing? 】
【Sayu: I just thought you would like it. 】
[Iwanami: Naive, if you were wearing cat ears (thumbs up)——]
【Sayu: Excuse me, can you jump off the Asahi Bridge? . (Indifferent face.jpg)]
Kato Yusuke smiled knowingly, but did not reply immediately.
Ding dong.
【Sayu: I said...】
[Iwanami: What's wrong? 】
[Sayu: Can't go to class for a week, will there be a lot of inconvenience? 】
[Iwanami: Huh?I didn't think much of it. 】
【Sayu: Hey, I really should help you prepare the handouts and send me your home address. 】
[Iyanami: ——xx chome xx fan xx. 】
【Sayu: ...Your reply speed is very uncomfortable. 】
[Iwanami: ——be sure to bring the handouts, deputy squad leader. 】
【Sayu: ...It's just a handout, what are you expecting? 】
[Iwanami: Am I hungry for knowledge? 】
【Sayu: ...that's so stupid. 】
【Iwanami: Okay, I will wait. 】
After chatting with the girl for a while, Yusuke Kato put away the phone.
Although it didn't feel necessary, but in view of Sayu's coming to the house, he stood up from the chair and began to clean the room.
Saying so...
In fact, it is to throw away the garbage.
Because I usually rely on bento boxes from convenience stores, or some restaurants downstairs for dinner, so the kitchen counters and the like are very clean, and there is nothing worth cleaning.
The other is to open the windows for ventilation, and use an air freshener to remove the smell in the room.
Time passed peacefully...
……
The hands of the clock on the wall passed the time of four o'clock in the afternoon.
Ding-dong-
The pleasant doorbell rang "belatedly"...
Considering the class meetings after school and the 20-minute journey from school to here.
There will be such emotions, which are purely due to someone's willfulness, and the person concerned himself knows this.
It's just that it's still a pleasant thing to think of spending time together for a long time.
Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke smiled and held the doorknob, and opened the door.
then……
"Umm, excuse me, Iwanami-san."
Appearing in front of him was Yuko who was greeting him with a wry smile.
...?
Kato Yusuke's smile turned puzzled, and his eyes passed over Yuko Masaka's shoulder, and then behind her, he saw Sayu who was staring at somewhere with his head turned towards the corridor of the apartment.
tsk...
"Sorry, it wasn't Sayu-chan who greeted you first." Yuko said in an apologetic tone as if she had guessed what he was thinking.
"...No, that's not the case, please come in."
Yusuke stepped aside and made an inviting gesture.
"That's disturbing."
"……excuse me."
The two girls took off their shoes at the narrow entrance and entered the house.
"Sorry, this is a bit small, just sit down, I'll pour juice for you."
Yusuke Kato took out two disposable paper cups from the cabinet, poured two glasses of orange juice into the small refrigerator installed under the cabinet, turned around and placed them on the table in the center.
"Please use."
"Thank you, Iwanami-san."
"Thank you."
Because there were only two matching chairs, he didn't sit down, but leaned against the kitchen counter at the back, looking at the two girls who were sitting.
"There's no need to be cautious, I'm the only one living here, just be casual."
"That's it." Yuko Masaka nodded in response, looked around curiously, and whispered with emotion: "Actually, this is the first time I have come to a boy's house, but Iwanami-san's place is very clean."
There is a fragrance in the air, and the soft wind flows in through the cracks in the windows.
Kato Yusuke nodded, turned his gaze to Sayu, and stayed for a moment on those eyes that were sneaking around the room from the corner of his eye.
He asked, "Ogiwara-san, what are you looking at?"
The girl gently sniffed her round nose.While pinning the hair hanging in front of his face behind his ears, he responded nonchalantly, "...this air freshener is the same as the one I use at home."
"It doesn't matter if you like this place as your home."
Yuko Masaka: (*︶*)
Sayu's eyebrows were obviously frowned, and without saying anything, she just bent down and took out a notebook from the backpack at her feet, and put it on the table.
"... These are the notes from today's chemistry class, you should read them."
"Well, thanks, by the way, what's in the plastic bag you brought?"
"Ah ~ this." Yuko smiled and explained in a light tone: "Because it's the first time I came here and I didn't know what to bring, so I bought a bento on the way, let's eat together later?"
"convenient?"
"Yes, and there is fried pork cutlet rice topped with eggs that boys like. Iwanami-san can eat this?"
That's not the problem, is it?
Do people usually bring bento to other people's homes as guests...?
Kato Yusuke was in a delicate mood, his eyes switched between Yuko and Sayu's faces, and he suddenly understood.
Probably the two girls were worried that he would feel lonely because of the suspension of school, so they made this plan:
——trying to cheer him up by having the three of them eat together.
Maybe it's girls' unique slenderness that makes them unable to speak out, so they use this euphemistic way to express their hearts.
I have to say that it is very Japanese girl style.
After many years of living, Yusuke gradually understood this way of thinking, so he nodded readily and said yes.
Hear this answer.
"Great." Yuko Masaka showed a relieved expression, which also confirmed his guess from the side.
Although Sayu was very quiet, judging from his failure to refute this matter, it was a tacit attitude in itself.
Seeing the reaction of the two, Kato Yusuke couldn't help chuckling, "I'm sorry to make you worry, but I'm actually fine, so there's no need to take care of me so much."
Yuko and Sayu secretly exchanged a look, tacitly did not talk about this matter.
Because it was too early for dinner, the three chatted.
Under Kato Yusuke's active inquiry, the two girls also briefly talked to him about the reaction of the class after that incident.
Although the current situation is not clear, and the students have shown great restraint, they will still discuss the conflict between him and Saito in private.
Judging from those remarks, everyone's views seem to be divided into three factions.
One side trusts him, and the other side trusts Saito.
The former is the group headed by the football club, and the latter is the group headed by the basketball club.
It's hard to say which of the two is stronger, after all, the school hasn't found out the culprit who stole the sportswear, so they both hold their own opinions.
As for the remaining party, it is those neutrals with ambiguous attitudes.
Kato Yusuke listened quietly, and during the period, he also asked about the reaction of Youyue Group, and the answer he got was that there was no abnormal behavior.
"Iwanami-san, are you doubting Youyue and the others?"
When Masaka Yuko asked, Kato Yusuke pondered for a while.
But facing the two of them, he had nothing to be wary of, so he also expressed his thoughts.
"If you want to say that in a classroom where there are always people, there are only girls who can openly take out girls' sportswear from their bags, right?"
"Although this is the case, it will be very conspicuous if you put things in someone else's backpack, right?"
"—That's not the case." Sayu took the lead in denying this rhetoric with a thoughtful face, and then analyzed:
"That may be more conspicuous during the recess, but if it is put on the lunch break when everyone is more relaxed, it will not be so difficult."
Yuko: "Lunch break...?"
Sayu: "Yes, because don't the three of us often go to the rooftop for lunch? This is a good gap."
Jiezi: "But what exactly should I do to avoid being discovered?"
Sayu: "After all, no one will always pay attention to the situation in the back row. If the prisoner is a girl, even if asked, you can use the reason of packing the backpack to respond."
Yuzi: "However, the positions of everyone's backpacks are obviously different."
Sayu: "As long as you are not familiar with people, no one will find this out. In addition, the first period in the afternoon is physical education class. As long as you behave naturally, you will not arouse suspicion."
Hearing these words, Masaka Yuko gulped down a mouthful of saliva, and asked in a trembling voice: "So that means, the culprits are You Yue and the others?"
Even though her situation in the class has improved, she still can't help but feel scared when facing the person who has caused her a lot of trouble.
After reacting, Sayu's heart "thumped" for a while, and she felt a little regretful about her careless and overly devoted behavior.
At this time, Kato Yusuke, who had been watching for a long time, spoke.
"Don't be nervous, Jie Zi, you are no longer the same you as before. Even that Youyue can't do anything to you easily, you have to believe in yourself."
"trust yourself?"
"Yes, we have all witnessed your changes, you have to believe that these are meaningful."
Under the gaze of Yusuke and Sayu.
Yuko Masaka lowered her head silently, reached out to hold her chest, and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
When she raised her head again, the expression on her face was successfully restored.
Kato Yusuke nodded approvingly, and said, "Well, it's version 2.0."
As a result, Sayu reprimanded dissatisfiedly, "A knot is a knot, don't say such strange things."
"Pfft...you two, your relationship has improved again."
After that, the three ate bento together.
After leaving a message that they would bring the lecture notes tomorrow, the two girls went home.
……
Thanks to [Yuhanbuyu], [20220416191017869] for their rewards.
