Chapter 14: The Gift
It's still the same road that he walks every day, Katsuragi holds a fried noodle bread in his hand, and eats it in small bites, thinking about how to ask Naoba what he likes without leaving a trace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Now, Xiao Nao, where did your family live before?" asked Katsuragi as he walked, suddenly turning his head to Naoba next to him.
"Huh!?" Naoba Kiritani was a little strange at Katsuragi suddenly mentioning this question, but he still recalled and said: "We used to live in Kyoto, but it seems that recently my father is going to work abroad, and my mother is too busy working in Kyoto to take care of me and my brother, so I applied to the company to come here, and if something happens, I can take care of my grandfather with help." ”
"Uncle Kiritani is going to work abroad......" Katsuragi was a little surprised to hear that Kiritani Fengsong was going to travel so far for work.
Naoba, who heard Katsuragi's words, said "um......", looking a little silent, looking at Naoba, whose face was not very good, Katsuragi quickly changed the topic and said:
"Anyway, I've never been to Kyoto, so what's there to eat and do there?"
"Kyoto, there are many interesting places in Kyoto, such as Kinkaku-ji Temple, Nijo-jo Castle, Kyoto Tower, and so on...... And every year during the cherry blossom festival, the cherry blossoms are the most beautiful to see in Nijo Castle. There is also ......" Speaking of the various situations in Kyoto, Naoba temporarily forgot about the unpleasant topic just now, and preached to Katsuragi endlessly.
"Uh...... , what about the delicious food or something. Seeing that Naoba kept talking about the various attractions and fun places in Kyoto with great interest, Katsuragi interrupted and asked, although those places are good, he can't bring Naoba over to play, so it's more reliable to give some food as a gift.
"Hmm...... It's delicious, it's delicious!" Naoba said as she heard Katsuragi ask about the food, frowning her little brow as she thought.
"Ah, yes. There is a cake shop in Kyoto called "Happiness in 5 Seconds", and the specialty cake "Happiness in 5 Seconds" is very delicious. As if suddenly remembering something, Naoba screamed and said with an aftertaste expression.
However, he immediately told Katsuragi in a regretful tone: "However, the cakes at that store are sold in limited quantities every day, and the prices are still very expensive, so I have only eaten them once." ”
Seeing Naoha's regretful expression, Katsuragi secretly remembered the name of the store "Happiness in Five Seconds" in his heart, and decided that it was you, my mysterious birthday gift.
Along the way, Naoba kept introducing various delicacies to Katsuragi in Kyoto, and Katsuragi didn't expect Naoba, who looked thin and cute, to be an out-and-out snack seller, and he knew all kinds of food.
Talking and laughing, they came to the dojo, and Naoba and Katsuragi began today's practice under the guidance of Shota Kiritani.
After a rigorous training at noon, Katsuragi could feel his progress, and he could see that Shota Kiritani was also starting to be satisfied with Katsuragi, and he didn't say anything like kicking him out.
Since the first time Katsuragi came to the dojo to practice swords, his father Katsura Yi came to pick him up at noon, and he never let Katsura come again, even if he felt exhausted after every sword practice, he would insist on walking back by himself, and Naoba was the same.
This time it was not surprising, after walking home slowly with Naoba and having lunch, Katsuragi felt as if his bones were falling apart, but he couldn't rest yet.
He had to prepare a plan on how to solve Naoha's birthday gift, although Katsuragi felt that even if he gave an ordinary gift, Naoba would not care about his little joke in class that day, but Katsuragi could feel that Naoba was still quite looking forward to his mysterious gift.
So,For Lori,No matter how hard and tired you are, you have to go up.。 As if some strange attribute had awakened, Katsuragi Ninja's body was tired, and he got up to find the small treasury he had saved all these years.
After sorting out, Guimu found a big crisis, his money was only enough for a round-trip fare, which made Guimu dumbfounded, what should I do, I can't go to the store and let people send it for free.
Katsuragi walked around the room, thinking of a solution, and told his parents that he could, but his parents would definitely not let him go so far alone to buy it, in this case, it would be equivalent to the gift not being given by himself.
If you only need money, it's not necessarily enough, Naoba has said that the price is very expensive, and if it's more, your parents will definitely ask what you want to do.
Thinking about it, Katsura didn't think of a good solution, looked at the time, Katsura gritted his teeth, forget it. Anyway, let's go find the store first.
I found a piece of Guimu's most satisfactory clothes in the house, carefully sorted out and dressed up in the mirror, looked at my handsome self in the mirror, and used the cute technique if I had no choice but to use the trick.
Taking his poor little vault, Katsuragi went downstairs, said hello to his father, who was reading on the couch, and went out to look for the tram.
Katsura is more fortunate that his parents have taken him to other cities to play in the past, and he knows how to take the tram, otherwise he doesn't know how to go to buy gifts.
After buying a ticket to Kyoto and sitting in a comfortable chair, Katsuragi couldn't help but feel that he might need to get some money, but he is now a seven-year-old or eight-year-old child, how can he make money, the most reliable way to draw manga, because he has not yet learned how to draw and cannot implement it.
But after thinking about it carefully, he really doesn't have anything to use money in his usual life, maybe he doesn't have to be in such a hurry, speaking of which, Katsura feels that it's time to ask his parents for a computer.
As the scenery outside the window faded, Katsuragi's thoughts drifted.
"Kyoto Station has arrived, please prepare your luggage and get off the train when you get off at Kyoto Station. The dazed Katsuragi immediately came to his senses when he heard the announcement of the train, jumped out of his chair, and quickly found the exit to get off the train.
"Wow, there are so many people. This was Katsuragi's first feeling when he got off the train and looked at Kyoto, and he accidentally glanced at the clock at the station, and found that it was already half past three, and it seemed that he was going to hurry.
Katsuragi asked the well-wishers on the road all the way, and with great effort, he finally found the cake shop called "Happiness in Five Seconds".
Looking at the queue on the side of the road in front of the store, Katsura Mu said that even if she brought enough money, she might not be able to buy this kind of queue.
Katsuragi looked at the snake-like team, not knowing what to do, anyway, let's observe it first, in desperation, Katsuragi can only go to the store first, see the situation and then look for a solution.
Katsuragi walked around the store for a while and found that the cake shop of "Happiness in Five Seconds" sold a variety of cakes, but the Long Snake Team was only in front of a sales window, and it was the specialty cake of the store, and the name was "Happiness in Five Seconds" matcha cake.
Other kinds of cakes are still easy to buy, but the specialty products of this store, looking at the long line, you can know the difficulty of buying, not to mention that according to Katsuraki's observation just now, even if he takes out the fare to go back to buy cakes, it is still not enough.
"Alas...... "A penny is hard to beat a hero, Gui Mu looked at the situation in front of him, and sighed sadly, what to do, Gui Mu thought with some sadness.
"Kid, what's wrong?" At this moment, a voice came from behind Katsuragi.
