Chapter Twenty-Three: The Coffee Shop on the Corner

Giving the firearm to Ayase was just Ye Yu's temporary idea, after all, if you have handcuffs but don't deserve to use a firearm, you always feel that something is missing, and Ye Yu is sure that Ayase will not abuse this thing. So, from this, this gun is far more symbolic than practical for Ayase.

After Ayase played with this novel toy for a while, although it was not to lose interest, but the excitement just now slowly subsided, and it was easy to say that no matter what it was, after something completely belonged to itself, with the migration of time, even if there was more expectation and cherishment for it at the beginning, it will slowly become accustomed to it, and then it will no longer be the same......

Everything is like this, not to mention a handful of handicrafts, and just after Ayase gradually regained her calm, Ye Yu reloaded the gun as she said before, and prepared to send her back...... Although the relationship between the two is not too mixed with the so-called love between men and women, it is by no means a commendable thing to stay together at such a late hour, and Ayase is only 14 years old now......

Originally, when he sold the house, Ye Yu thought that he would not set foot in this area for a long time, but who would have thought that this would be less than a week away and he would revisit because of this...... But compared with the past, Ye Yu always felt a little unspeakably awkward, not because of the sadness caused by the baptism of time like things and people, but a more superficial diaphragm...... After all, Ye Yu no longer belongs here.

Speaking of which, when he came here, Ye Yu was still a little worried about whether he would feel embarrassed when he met those old ones, but in fact, he didn't meet a single acquaintance at all...... This made Ye Yu breathe a sigh of relief and at the same time have the illusion of being inexplicably left out, after he realized this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly......

"Now I'm just a 16-year-old kid who has been cheated out of his family property by the Snow Family. It's no longer the majestic monster that called the wind and rain from all sides~~ It seems that it will take a while to adjust the mentality...... "Ye Yu, who slowly paced home after sending Ayase back in the evening breeze, habitually thought about something, and it was natural that his mentality would be difficult to adjust for a while. But it's harmless......

After all, the current Ye Yu does not have the strength to turn the whole world upside down by one person, and even through accumulation, he can achieve that kind of situation. But for him, who has only had less than a hundred years in this game, it would be too wasteful to do so.

It is better to say that it is a summary or a reflection, Ye Yu just walked and thought about it, and unconsciously crossed a distance of about 40 minutes and returned to his neighborhood again, and when he passed by the coffee shop, he suddenly remembered that the dessert he used to feed Alice was eaten by Ayase just now, which meant that he had to buy it again.

"Do you visit the same café three times a day...... It's a weird feeling! With a broken thought in his mouth, Ye Yu easily pushed open the door of the coffee shop and walked in. The familiar décor and arrangement, as well as the faint sweet scent that always lingers in the store, combined with the dim and dim lighting in the room, really gives people a sense of reassurance.

"Welcome, poof...... It's Ye Jun again, you. This is the third time I've come here today, so why don't I stay here and work. "An interesting customer like Ye Yu is the first time I've seen Shirakawa Jingliu, who is the foreman, but because Ye Yu is a regular customer, she also casually made a joke......

"I also have a hard time...... Ye Yu sighed a little exaggeratedly, and then found a place to sit down without saying hello to Jingliu. Speaking of which, the store is about to close at this time period, and both the clerk and the customer have already left, "Sister Jingliu, is there any dessert or anything left?" Pack me whatever you want......"

"Dessert?" Seeing Ye Yu say that, she trotted back to the counter and looked, "There are also two matcha cakes and a little red bean puffs, which girl is Ye Jun going to bring to you?" ”

"Give it to me, although it's indeed for the girl, but it's definitely not what Sister Jingliu thinks!" Although Ye Yu also knew that this should not have any effect. But he still stubbornly explained...... Who let the girls who come to the store with him many times not be the same person, so it's no wonder that the clerk looked at him strangely when he brought Yukina to the store in the afternoon.

The desserts in the store are all specially made on the day, and they are definitely second to none in the neighborhood in terms of taste, so Ye Yu has nothing to be picky about at all. And take advantage of such a moment. Ye Yu habitually cast his eyes out the window to see the night scene decorated with fluorescent lights.

The hustle and bustle of the car outside the window is completely isolated by the window of the store, but if you can only see the traffic and not hear the sound, it will inevitably give people the illusion of loneliness, especially at night.

And at this time, a familiar figure of Ye Yu flashed by outside the window. The next moment, the wind chimes that rang as the door was opened reverberated in the small shop.

"Sister,Hotaru is coming~~" is full of vitality that is the opposite of my sister Jingliu. At this time, it wasn't Hotaru who came into the store, who else could it be, "Sister Hotaru picked you up, let's go back together~~ Eh? Isn't this Ye Jun? Why did you come to the store at this time? ”

"This is the third time he's come over today~~" Jingliu, who had finished packing her words, walked to Ye Yu's table with the delicate cardboard box, and at the same time she brought over a cup of steaming mocha, "It's my treat, thank you Ye Jun for your long-term support~~"

"The third time? Poof~~" Like her sister, after hearing the news, Hotaru couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, speaking of which, because she also often stayed in this shop, Ye Yu and Hotaru were also very familiar with each other, so she had to shake her head and ignore her teasing...... Speaking of which, Hotaru is also a student at the Holy Strip Academy, and she is also the strongest ace in the music department when she is in her third year of high school (Note 1).

"Isn't it just that I come to the store more often, as for me?" Ye Yu raised the coffee cup a little unpleasantly, blew it lightly twice, and then put it to his lips and took a sip, "And ah, what is the long-term support...... If I don't like it, I'll just say it......"

"Angry? Don't be like this, boys should be generous~~" Listening to the sour words in Ye Yu's mouth, Hotaru sat down beside him and then bumped him with his body and motioned Ye Yu to move in, "Sister, Hotaru also wants coffee!" But sweeter...... Put more milk! ”

"Got it, I know, I know it......" Shizuru replied a little dotingly, but if it was to be made according to Hotaru's taste, it would be more appropriate to call it coffee milk than coffee.

And just as Jingliu turned around to prepare coffee, Hotaru came to Ye Yu's side and said to him, "By the way, Ye Jun is also a student of the Holy Article now, do you want to visit my sister's music room~~ There is a big and beautiful piano~~" When describing the piano, Hotaru also deliberately opened her hands to indicate the size of the thing, and such a firefly looked childish, "Oh yes, yes, there are still many beautiful girls in the music department, do you want my sister to introduce you?" I heard that there is a child named Winter Horse this year who is very powerful~~"

Note 1: According to the timeline of MO4, Hotaru should be a sophomore at this time, but in order to unfold the plot, she is still a junior in high school (to be continued.) )
