You only care about the strategy

Chapter 224 Is there thunder?
  Closing time on weekends is at [-]:[-] pm.

After the two said goodbye to Kawase, they left the convenience store together.

During the rainy season, the sky is still clear in the morning, but it is covered with dark clouds in the afternoon, and the air on the street is very dull.

It’s already late June, and in the next month, there will be a rainy season with relatively concentrated rainfall.

It might rain tonight, after all, the dark clouds in the sky look quite thick.

"Aunt Kawase asked me to take you out to play, Yuexia."

The way to get along with Gensei Yuka is probably that when he talks, she agrees.

Generally speaking, she rarely initiates a conversation.

"Ah."

The girl walked beside him with her head lowered, always half a step behind subconsciously.

Her attention was constantly switching between the sidewalk beneath her feet and the boy beside her, and she never tired of it.

Shiina Kiri suddenly stopped and Gensei Yuka noticed it quickly, but still took a step forward.

She quickly retreated, the curvy black hair on her shoulders shaking as she walked.

Maybe the movement was too hasty, and it looked like it was jumping back, which was a bit cute.

"What...what's wrong, Shiina-san." The girl turned slightly and looked at his chest.

"fine."

Shiina Kiri stretched out her right hand and rubbed her hair.

I always felt that the girl's move seemed to suggest that he rub her hair, and the angle was really good.

"It's still early, let's go have afternoon tea."

He stood at the convenience store all afternoon. It was not polite for him to take the girl around. He was just looking for trouble.

"Okay, I'll listen to Shiina-san."

In fact, you can go anywhere, because Gensei Yuka will feel happy if you stay with him.

So she planned to work part-time with him before, but he refused.

Shiina Kiri found a nearby afternoon tea shop.

Because of the weekend, there are many customers in the store.

But everyone is quiet and speaks softly, so the atmosphere is pretty good.

The two didn't wait too long, and the waiter quickly brought the desserts they ordered.

A waffle with a knife and fork, with a layer of golden honey poured on the outside, looks a bit like the Dorayaki I had before at Kagura Playground, but the taste is completely different.

Shiina Kiri took a bite and it tasted very soft and waxy.

However, the aftertaste was a bit greasy, so he picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"How does it taste?"

"It's delicious. Thank you, Shiina-san."

Gensei Yuxia sipped her fork and licked off the remaining honey on it.

"It's ok."

Shiina Kiri was used to being polite to girls.

"By the way, don't thank me in a hurry. This afternoon tea is your treat."

When he ordered the food before, he paid attention to the price. It was not too expensive.

A few desserts and coffee totaled about [-] yen, which the girl could afford based on her current salary.

After all, he paid for the tickets to Disneyland tomorrow, including her treat this time, lest she feel she owed too much and had to give him money.

"Okay." Yuansheng Yuxia agreed readily.

"You keep eating, don't be too polite around me, or I will bully you later."

Seeing the girl holding the silver fork but not moving, Shiina Kiri quickly realized something.

It is difficult to change the polite habit of language, and now he feels that there is no need to change.

But there is no need to be so polite or careful when dealing with each other.

If he didn't eat, she would freeze there. She would always watch his words, much like his pet.

Shiina Kiri felt that it was really bad for her to be so weak. He would always bully her subconsciously.

If you treat her as an abandoned child every time, she will be bullied to the point of crying, and it will be bad if she really leaves.

"Oh." Gensheng Yuxia agreed.

She put down her fork, picked up the three-color dumplings on the side, and ate a pink dumpling. A small bump of equal size bulged out on her right cheek.

Yuansheng Yuexia chewed it carefully, her cheeks became smaller and smaller.

After swallowing, the girl took another one and chewed it slowly.

Looks like it tastes good?
  With saliva secreting from her mouth, Shiina Kiri suddenly understood the existence of mukbang.

He also picked up a bunch and ate one, a caramel-flavored mochi ball.

"I will participate in the football competition at the sports festival next week. Yue Xia, will you come and cheer me on?"

He told Gensei Yuka last time that he had been preparing for the sports festival after school in the afternoons for the past two weeks.

The girl quickly swallowed the last dumpling in her mouth. "I will definitely go, Shiina-san."

"Besides football Jiugongge, did Shiina-san participate in any other competitions?" Gensei Yuka asked.

There were too many people at the sports festival, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to find him.

"For this single event, I originally wanted to participate in basketball fixed-point shooting, but was rejected."

If you want to sign up for the sports festival, you have to register with Kazuki Kobayakawa. In addition to being the president of the student union, she is also the monitor of Class C in the second year.

"Why was it rejected? Shiina-kun is obviously very good at basketball." Gensei Yuka said in a low voice.

"Two games are held at the same time, one in the playground and one in the stadium. I can only choose one." There are too many events in the sports festival, and some games will inevitably overlap in time.

So these days he has been practicing football but not shooting.

As for why you should give up the familiar basketball and choose the new football.

Naturally, it's because basketball can be played in friendly games in the future, but football can't be found for the time being.

Since they are all heading towards lv3 and lv4, naturally they should make up for their shortcomings first.

"Okay." Yuansheng Yuexia nodded lightly.

In fact, Shiina Kiri felt that Gensei Yuka had changed a bit recently, but she couldn't tell where.

Obviously she still likes him very much.

But he still felt that something happened to the girl that he didn't know.

……

After having this afternoon tea for about half an hour, Shiina Kiri sent Gensei Yuka home.

Originally, he planned to stay at the girl's house for a while, play with little Yiyang, and have dinner before going back.

But the sky became darker and darker, so Shiina Kiri had no choice but to say goodbye to her sisters and get on the bus home.

After all, he hasn't made any plans to stay overnight...

Gensei Yuka's home was very cramped and there was only one bed, so the two sisters always slept together.

If you squeeze in one more... forget it.

The hunch was not wrong. As soon as Shiina Kiri got on the bus, huge raindrops hit the glass window. The rain quickly turned the transparent glass into uneven spots.

After returning home, Shiina Kiri became a drowned rat as expected, and her whole body was soaked.

"unlucky."

When she stood at the door of the rental house and couldn't find the key, Shiina Kiri couldn't help but curse.

Fortunately, he finally took out the key from his trouser pocket, otherwise he would have to call someone to unlock it?
  If the whole body is soaked, there is a risk of getting cold even if the weather is not cold in summer, not to mention having a wet shirt on the body is uncomfortable.

After taking out clean clothes from the bedroom and taking a bath, the sky was completely dark.

This time it was no longer because of the dark clouds, it was already around [-]:[-] before I knew it.

Shiina Kiri made herself a bucket of instant noodles and sat on the sofa to finish it.

Leaning on the familiar sofa, he naturally thought of Asakura Yin, even though the smell of the girl on the sofa had long since dissipated.

It rains heavily today, and it should also rain in Osaka.

She is very afraid of thunder.

Shiina Kiri looked at her phone. The message on the line stayed on two days ago.

The chat history is full of trivial matters, and the girl's responses are as short as ever.

If outsiders only read the message records, they would definitely feel that the passionate relationship between the two has become estranged over time.

Shiina Kiri dialed the number, and the phone beeped a few times before the call was answered.

"Ah."

The girl said "hmm" softly to show that she was listening.

Shiina Kiri felt that she had made great progress. In the past, even if she got through to a girl on the phone, she would have to remain silent for a while.

"How are you doing recently?"

"Ah."

"It's raining heavily in Tokyo. Is it raining in Osaka?"

Shiina Kiri said as she looked towards the balcony, lightning flashed from time to time, and dark clouds had been accumulating for a long time.

"Down." The girl replied.

"Well, is there thunder?" Shiina Kiri continued to ask.

Asakura Yin was silent for a moment. "Um."

"That's good."

"what?"

"Well, we provide sleeping services here. Is there any need for this?"

Shiina Kiri yawned slightly as she listened to the sound of rain.

Generally speaking, he doesn't go to bed until ten or eleven o'clock in the evening.

But maybe because I exercised too much in the morning and didn't take a nap at noon, I was already a little sleepy.

Asakura Yin's mouth curved a little after hearing this. "No."

"Really don't need it? You can unlock some special titles."

As he spoke, he walked towards the bathroom, planning to wash up and go to bed.

"What's the name?"

In the Nakano family villa, the girl was leaning on the big soft bed, with a warm hanging lamp on the bedside, and a newly bought comic book on her lap.

The royalties for the novel had already been paid, but she didn't tell Shiina Kiri.

I originally planned to treat him to Osaka next time, but who knows, he hasn't come again for more than half a month.

"It's not unlocked yet, maybe it will be after we chat."

"Oh."

Thunder sounded in the sky, and the girl curled up, listening to the boy on the other side of the phone.

My mother didn't know that she was afraid of thunder, because she only started to be afraid before she ran away from home.

Only he knows.
