In late May, as the temperature rises day by day, the daily sunshine is becoming more and more scorching.

In the early morning, behind the seemingly peaceful clouds, I don't know what kind of demon is hiding, but when the time comes, it will burst out and begin to scorch the earth as if nothing happened.

Alas...... I always feel that this kind of sentence that seems to describe summer vacation is really appropriate here? It's not one of the world-famous furnace cities in China in the previous life.

As far as the island is concerned, the temperature is only stable in the mid-20s in May, which is not completely unbearable.

It was in such a peaceful month, on an uneventful Sunday, that Jiang Yu got up early, rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned and walked to the bathroom.

Even if I didn't go to bed early last night, I'm going to Saitama Prefecture today, so I can't do it early in the morning.

Yes, the Rokutenba shopping mall that Megumi Kato wants to visit is no longer in Tokyo, but a newly opened commercial center in a neighboring prefecture.

When Jiang Yu learned about it at that time, he was shocked. But when I think about it, in the Celestial Empire of the previous world, this is just like running from one end of a city to the other, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal. Compared with some provinces with vast regions, even running around the country is equivalent to a round trip in the province.

Just as Jiang Yu was brushing his teeth and thinking about these questions, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the aisle. Taking advantage of the effort of rinsing his mouth with water, Jiang Yu glanced at the door of the bathroom with his spare eyes, and it was Shiina Mahaku.

It can be seen that the girl's sleeping appearance is not good. A half-hidden top, hair curled up on the top of the head, red eyes, and ...... Wearing only a fat (inserted) lower body.

Well, although under Jiang Yu's strong request for half a month, Shiina Mashiro finally took off his clothes without being casual and fell asleep under the table with the quilt, but every morning when he got up, his pajamas were always loosely put on his body, as if he wanted to try his best to get rid of the burden in his sleep.

And every day when he asks the other party to get up, he will see such a scene, which causes Jiang Yu's heart to turn from slight turmoil to indifference.

Spit out the mouthwash in his mouth, Jiang Yu greeted Shiina Mahaku, "Good morning, Shiina." Why did you wake up so early today? ”

Hearing this, Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Yu with a cold look, and said softly, "I need to go to Ayano later." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Yu was stunned, and asked with some confusion, "Shiina you...... Alone in the past? ”

He didn't care much about the girl's cold gaze. After all, after getting along for so many days, he, who is responsible for taking care of Shiina, has almost figured out this girl's temperament. It's not that she doesn't have the rest of her emotions in her heart, it's just that she, who has never been taught these things, doesn't know how to express her inner emotions.

However, compared to that, Jiang Yu was more worried about whether this girl would walk halfway and suddenly lose the direction of her life if she went out alone. After all, she's a person with a criminal record.

Shiina Mahaku shook his head, and said in his usual tone of voice without ups and downs and lack of emotion, "It's Ayano who came here to pick me up." ”

"That's right...... Then I'm relieved. Well...... So, let's fix your washing first. ”

As he spoke, Jiang Yu picked up the toiletry that belonged to Shiina Mashiro next to him, squeezed the toothpaste and wet the towel skillfully, and then gently wiped it on the girl's smooth and delicate cute face.

……

At the same time, Kato's home.

Megumi Kato, who also got up early in the morning, prepared breakfast for herself and her parents. After eating her share, she went back to her room and began to change into the outfit she had chosen the previous day.

Because it's almost summer, although I can't see it on weekdays, but even in terms of dressing, I have some of my own experience, so I naturally chose a set of clothes suitable for this season.

Bright color tank top, translucent white lace short-sleeved top, and mini skirt on the upper and lower body, because of the weather, the girl finally decided to put on white stockings.

Well...... As far as high school students are concerned, it should already be considered quite avant-garde and fashionable, right? Probably.

However, speaking of which, can the words avant-garde and pop be used together?

So, time passed bit by bit in the girl's dressing and packing up, and finally, as if it was just a blink of an eye, the time when the girl expected to go out was reached.

Before going out, the girl took a closer look at herself in the full-length mirror, and after noticing nothing wrong, she took the brown leather bag and a white sailor's hat and walked out of her room.

Maintaining her usual unhurried pace, Megumi Kato changed her shoes at the entrance, opened the door, and walked to the station where she had agreed to meet.

Therefore, what the departing girl didn't know was that less than thirty seconds after she closed the door, two figures with probes appeared in the living room.

After confirming that her daughter really went out, a relieved smile appeared on Kato's mother's face. It's like ...... I saw something beautiful.

However, Kato's father frowned, and said with some worry: "You say, Xiaohui won't be bullied by that kid named Jiang or something, right?" ”

"It's called Jiang Yu." Kato's mother corrected, then showed a confident smile and said with a smile, "Peace of mind! You have to believe that Apricot still has the eyes of a daughter, don't you? It's been so long, when have you ever seen our daughter go out alone with a boy? ”

"That's ...... say," Kato's father sighed suddenly, "If it was just a daughter, I wouldn't be worried at all, but after listening to Kyoko's words, I became worried." You say, if that kid named Jiang Yu is really as good as Apricot said, can Xiaohui achieve positive results with him? ”

Well, of course, the subtext of the so-called cultivation is of course marriage.

Kato's mother yawned lazily when she heard this, and said angrily: "You~~ You just love to worry about it, the eldest daughter's business, you were also worried about here and there, but what happened?" Aren't the kids getting along well yet? Therefore, let the young people solve the problems of young people. You and me, as parents, just need to do a good job in the key places. Go back to sleep, aren't you sleepy? ”

With that, Kato's mother turned around and walked towards the bedroom of the two. She got up at about the same time as Megumi Kato today, but now that her strength has passed, she is really a little sleepy.

"Hmm......" Kato's father stood there and muttered for a moment, as if he couldn't find any words to refute, and finally had to shake his head helplessly and keep up with his wife's pace.

However, in this trance, the two daughters in his memory seemed to be children who would never grow up, one was about to get married, and the other seemed to have a future direction, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

It's like an unfinished dream when I was young, but between a hundred pages of a book, it seems to have spent a lifetime.

However, compared to such a bitter metaphor, Kato's father's dream can be said to be quite sweet.

……

Half past seven in the morning, Chiyoda Station.

Jiang Yu, who was standing on the side of the road waiting for today's absolute main heroine, looked a little bored playing with his mobile phone. In this world, since there is no moon world, there is naturally no game to talk about, but it supports the game projects of two large companies on both sides of the coast.

Jiang Yu still remembers the unreality that after playing that game, his whole person's view of money has changed dramatically.

Cough...... Then it's a little farther, back to Jiang Yu's actions at this time. Because of the scheduled shopping activities later, he was looking up the situation of some stores in some Six Days Shopping Center on the Internet at this moment, and the result really made him speechless.

According to the introduction on the Internet, a shopping street with more than 100 domestic and foreign brands, a food court with more than 30 well-known restaurants, and a complex cinema are all set up in the giant facility.

For people like Jiang Yu who bought clothes and shoes on various websites such as Tao○ and ○ Dong in the last world, since junior high school, that kind of large shopping mall is like another world.

By the way, when I used to go to the mall with my friends occasionally, the feeling of walking through a maze really made him not want to go through it a second time, and even the best memories are better!

Now, however, he had to go to the kind of place that was full of bad memories once again. There are no facilities that are friendly to otaku such as amusement parks, aquariums, or maid cafes; There are no bookstores, planetariums, or museums where you can spend a whole day alone; Even if there is a studio, it will only play any anime movie and those classics that he is familiar with from the previous world.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that kind of place is an absolute away game for him, and it is also a place where the ability value will drop by at least 50%!

For Jiang Yu, who has always pursued the "energy-saving principle" of a folding stick, it is unbelievable that he should be lazy at home and do something leisurely, but he actually has to go out under the sunshine that is not so kind.

And, with girls?

Go to this kind of walking by a man and a woman, no matter how you look at it, you just want to be in a dating place......?

Alas...... Although it is said that Megumi Kato, this girl, gives people a very subtle feeling. To put it simply, because the other party is always easy-going, subconsciously will ignore the fact that the other party is actually a girl, and then just like getting along with their ordinary friends, it is easy to form a harmonious appearance of the guest and the host.

However, it seems that this way...... Megumi Kato, a girl, is so easy-going that it's not easy to find her essence, but she's an ordinary high school girl after all.

Inexplicably, such an idea popped up in Jiang Yu's mind.

She cares about fashion magazines, she cares about new shopping malls, and she spends her holidays shopping for clothes, shoes, and accessories.

Movies will also only care about romance and recent hits. Occasionally, I go to concerts and concerts, but of course it can't be Animelo Summer Live, but a solo concert or pop music by an idol......

Ah, in order to prevent you from having any unnecessary misunderstandings, the above information is all heard by Jiang Yu occasionally chatting with Megumi Kato on weekdays. After all, the relationship between the two is that of the front and back tables, and when they are at school, they have many more opportunities to speak than the rest of the club.

…… Being understanding and easy to get along with otaku is one of her great strengths, but it doesn't mean that she can talk about things a little deeper.

Fundamentally, Keito Kato is a girl who should live in a completely different world from him......

As a result, he can have such a deep friendship now, perhaps thanks to Lun Ye's stubborn behavior of asking the other party to join the club? But the other party seemed to be very casual at the time, so he just agreed.

“…… Also, Mr. Keiichi Kato, what do you mean by the word "boyfriend" that you casually attached in that newsletter? ”

Wandering through all kinds of restaurants in the Six Days Shopping Center, Jiang Yu muttered.

That happened before he took over the heavy responsibility of accompanying Megumi Kato to go shopping on the weekend, and when the bobo-headed girl explained the matter to his cousin, the other party sent a text message - "Understood, help me say hello to your boyfriend."

Well, in terms of how easy to talk and how easy it is to get along with, that Keiichi Kato ...... Isn't it better to say that the entire Kato family seems to be beyond ordinary people?

Just when Jiang Yu was slightly distracted, he suddenly heard such a voice in his ear - "Good morning, Jiang Jun." ”

"Ahh Jiang Yu raised his head suddenly, looked at the girl in front of him who had been carefully dressed, and couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise in his eyes, and also responded: "Morning ...... Morning. ”

Looking at Jiang Yu's expression, Megumi Kato showed a slightly apologetic smile and said, "I'm sorry, I've waited a long time, right?" ”

"No, no, I've only been here for a short time."

Seeing this familiar scene in various movies or anime, Jiang Yu naturally wouldn't be so eyeless to say the fact that he had been standing here for twenty minutes.

But...... Isn't it a matter of course to arrive at the meeting point 10 minutes early in terms of general social etiquette? It was because he was worried that Megumi Kato would do this that Jiang Yu arrived at the station twenty minutes early.

However, now it seems that he is the only one who thinks like this? He remembered that when he made an appointment with the group of people from the school club to go out together, it seemed that Kato also arrived at a delicate time point like this?

By the ay, Kato arrived in front of the station designated as the meeting place two minutes before the appointed time, and the way he appeared was still lacking in topicality.
