Chapter Sixty-Eight: Fools Always Can't Hide Their Hearts

(PS1: In view of the fact that everyone seems to be not very interested in what we wrote, I don't seem to be very interested/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~ So the workplace apprenticeship chapter is temporarily omitted.,It will be made up as a side story in the future.,The above ~~.]

PS2: Because I have to take the train after the exam tomorrow, I can't update it until I go home, so let's release this chapter in advance.

PS3: Thank God for the reward of classmates~~That's it~~)

Time is a natural property that prevents events from happening suddenly.

Whether it is a chemical reaction that occurs in an instant, or the path of biological evolution spanning millions of years, or the billions of years of stellar evolution, time exists as a buffer property, but this buffer property of time is not always fully reflected in real life.

There are always certain things and certain feelings in the world that happen very suddenly, so fast that people can't react to them, sometimes they suddenly appear around people, causing a wave of shock and confusion, and sometimes they suddenly disappear, causing anger and lamentation...... And then in the face of these unexpected events, people are so unprepared, forcibly accepting, or adapting to this mutated world—unable to stop or change.

Although in terms of time, Yuuji and everyone else lived the same day, but for each different person, the span of the day was probably different.

Just when the invisible rift was already quietly growing in the ministry -

Yuuji's side is shopping with a shopping bag.

Due to the fact that the task of working in the workplace ended relatively early, he was entrusted with a task by his sister - to buy groceries.

Originally, this task has always been taken on by Mitsuki on her own initiative, but since Yuji is free today...... It's natural to be pulled as a coolie occasionally, and Yuji doesn't have anything he doesn't want to.

"Tofu, celery, green onions, and eggs have been bought, and the rest is eel and seaweed...... Ah, Yui?" The reason why I say this is not that Yuji finally included the creature of childhood sweethearts in the edible range, but because-

The girl walking on the street had a gloomy expression, her steps were full of lost colors between hesitations, the small pink backpack seemed to be weakly placed on her shoulders, and even the inexplicable ball on her head seemed to be able to sense the mood of the owner

- I was surprised to see Yui who was so different from her usual days.

"What's the matter, Yui? looks listless...... It doesn't feel like it's in line with your 'energetic stupid' setting?"

"No, nothing...... It's nothing.,Ah.,It's Yuji.。 ”

He waved his hand in a panic and said no before he even saw who it was, and then as if he had reacted, Yui reluctantly smiled at Yuuji. That expression doesn't look like 'nothing' at all.

"Huh...... What's the matter today? Don't even deny 'stupid'! Yui 'stupid'?" Yuji said as if he was deliberately emphasizing.

"Yoo, Yooji, it's really ...... It's too bad!!" The girl shouted angrily as she slapped the boy on the shoulder, but it was the purpose of the boy to provoke the girl's anger and make her react.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, because I look like you're listless, so I want you to be a little more energetic......" The young man smiled and blocked the girl's fist, touched the back of his head and said, "After all...... Yui is still more suitable for the kind of energetic and clumsy expression.,Sad expressions of sadness or something are not suitable for you.。 ”

"It's too bad, stupid~~" Yui whispered with her head down.

Glad that the boy was worried about his behavior, and a little shy, Yui looked at the ground stained by the dim yellow sunset, and her mind couldn't help but go back to the moment when she was in the workplace trainee company...... I can't be happy.

I really can't understand why that person thinks the way he does, why the thoughts in his head are always so negative...... Shouldn't the so-called friend be a simpler thing?

Why do you think so? Why do you think so? It's not like that......

Can't understand, can't understand, overly complex problems and emotions are entangled in the girl's heart, and the complexity of things and relationships has obviously exceeded the girl's simple brain's thinking and processing ability, so this entanglement is directly manifested on the face and in the action.

"Is there something going on? I heard you justifying something at the beginning. ”

"No, no, it's really nothing, ahahaha~~" As if to increase his persuasiveness, Yui said with a forced smile.

"Yui, didn't anyone tell you not to stir your fingers when lying?...... Also, put away the smirk on your face, who else did you deceive by making such an expression besides yourself?" Yuji pinched his chin and reminded, and then Yui immediately let go of his fingers that were making small movements and covered his mouth.

...... I'm afraid she can only be a 'deceived person' and not a 'deceived person' in this life, poor child. It's a little funny, Yuji thought

"Did you quarrel with someone else?" asked in a slightly softer voice, Yuji looked at the girl.

"It's nothing, it's all in the past, Hora, I'm okay now, really~~" Yui still said with a stubborn look of refusal to admit it, I don't want the boy to worry, I don't want the people around me to worry because of 'useless self', this is what a simple girl thinks.

"Hmm~, I can probably guess it. Not to mention the rest, first of all, Yui is a cute girl, and you are such a good person's character, there are not many people who can quarrel with you...... It's that guy from Hikiya, right?" Although it was a questioning sentence, Yuji used an affirmative tone

'How do you know?' - Yui's expression confirmed Yuji's thoughts.

"No, no......" followed by a flustered denial, but—

"Well, it's a little more awkward than Qigu, but you wouldn't quarrel with a girl if you were ordinary, so...... Is it really because of that exposure?" Ignoring Yui's reaction, Yuji analyzed it to himself.

"Listen to people!!" cried the girl, who was desperately trying to hide it.

"Sure enough!!"

"Woo~~......" Yui pouted and looked like she was about to cry.

Although it was just a fact that I didn't want others to worry about, I concealed the fact that it was so easy for people to deduce that it also made the girl frustrated, and once again felt that she was useless.

"Okay, I won't tease you...... Do you have time now? Yui?"

"Woo......" pouted childishly, and Yui pinned her head to the side, like a child who was coquettish with his mother and asked for candy.

"Okay, don't make a fuss...... How about shopping with me after a long absence?...... Huh?"

"Hmm-hmm"

Although she still looked reluctant, and she didn't quite understand what Yuji wanted to do, Yui still agreed, after all, now she is like a puppy who can't find her way back, and she doesn't know what she should do.

The girl agreed to the invitation, but her expression was still bitter, Yuji shook her head with a wry smile, and said:

"I'm going to treat you to a big dinner later, how about you be a little happier...... Huh?"

"What are you waiting for?" asked the girl as she walked five meters away.

For some reason, it seemed that the power of food was unexpectedly great for the girl, and suddenly she was refreshed. Did she still have foodie attributes before?-Yuji thought suspiciously, however, he probably never imagined that the reason why the girl suddenly became greedy was all caused by him and Yukishita.

......

"Well, eels, eels, ah...... Next is ......" After coming out of the fish store, the boy who had finished buying the fish turned around and ran into a fruit shop, then took out a bunch of bananas and a small bag of desiccated coconut, and handed them to Yui.

After that, they also went to the dessert shop and bought chocolates, and sugar and other things. This made Yui a little confused, although her cooking level is relatively poor, but banana chocolate, from the perspective of common sense, it should be impossible to make food, so she asked curiously

"Eh, didn't Yuji say he bought groceries, why did he buy these things?"

"Well...... "The boy dragged out his tone as if he was deliberately provoking curiosity, and then put his index finger to his lips and said.

"Secret~Secret~"

"Woo~~"

============================= divider =============================

"I'm back"

"Excuse me~~"

Standing in the hallway at the door of Itai's house, following Yuuji's back, Yui said quietly and politely with a red face. It wasn't until she was almost at the door of Banjing's house that she suddenly realized that a girl went home with a boy or something, wouldn't it be that, that...... See your parents or something?

As soon as I thought of this, my already ruddy face became more and more red, and it had become as if it was about to drip blood, but fortunately there was the evening light as a cover, and no one noticed the girl's face, otherwise Aunt Chigusa asked, 'Why is your face so red?' Is it a cold?' In this way, the girl is estimated to really faint because of excessive shyness.

"Allah, Yui-chan is here, welcome" (Note: 'Yui' and 'Yui' are both pronounced YUI in Japanese)

Standing at the entrance of the stairs, Chigusa greeted the two with a smile on her face, and walked over, took out a pair of pink slippers from the closet, wrapped them in a plastic bag, handed them to Yui, and took a few plastic bags from Yuuji's hands. Yui whispered thanks and put it on.

"Arnold, Kasang, who was the one just now?"

"Well, that's, it's Xiao Yui's slippers" Chigusa's tone was still calm, but the heart of the young man who listened was not calm.

No, no, I just want to ask, why do we have this guy's special slippers in our house? Even mine is newly bought, right?

"Because before Xiao Yu came back, Xiao Wei often came to our house to play, so I bought a pair by the way" As if to see the unrest in Yu Yu's heart, Chigusa explained.

"Why haven't I heard of this?"

"Because after Xiao You came back, Xiao Wei sauce came less...... Ah, let's go in and say, Xiao Wei has been walking outside for so long, he should be tired, go to the sofa and sit down, I'll make tea for you."

Why did you tell me to come, she came less, are you afraid to see me?

"Ahh......h

"No need, Xiao You can accompany Xiao Wei here, make tea quickly. ”
