Chapter 129: It's so quiet
A few minutes later, Rintaro walked out of the garage with a small simple cart containing six or seven large watermelons that were all wrapped in a mesh bag, the kind that a person would feel full after eating a quarter.
Rintaro was glad that he wasn't instigated by his grandfather and went back with these things. Even if it's only a few minutes away, it's not easy to walk back with such a big melon.
It's not a pleasant thing to walk six or seven round trips either.
Rintaro pushed the car, and if it weren't for the fact that it didn't match his expression and image, he would have even hummed.
As a result, less than a dozen steps away, Rintaro saw the three Katase sisters standing and chatting at the corner of a small intersection. The voices they made weren't very loud, and Rintaro had to come very close to finally spot them.
The cart creaked and stopped next to them.
“…… What are you doing here? Can't remember where my house is? ”
Rintaro's words caused them to turn their attention.
"Rintaro, you're so slow, we're waiting for you here." Katase Yorai clasped his hands and said, "Because I'm worried that you won't be able to hold so many watermelons." ”
"Of course, it's not because I look down on you, it's just a conclusion based on the fact that you've never seen you exercising." Katase Hazuki added.
Although I can feel that they didn't mean it, but when they said this, they really didn't think about it, and it actually brought more harm to themselves? If it were an ordinary person, now this would be crying and clamoring to prove itself, and then take these watermelons back.
Fortunately, Rintaro is not a normal person.
"Aha......" Hoshiri Katase laughed dryly, "Sakuraba-san, don't care too much. By the way, do you need my help? ”
Rintaro shook his head: "No. ”
Rintaro glanced down at the small cart he was holding, "It's very convenient to use this." And these watermelons are really heavy, just push them over like this. Eating for a week should be no problem. ”
“…… It seems that we are worried in vain, and now it seems that we don't need our help in this situation. Katase Hazuki said.
"No, Hazuki." Yorai Katase frowned: "You shouldn't ignore the fact that Rintaro can't actually push this little cart. ”
This is completely slanderous.
Rin Taro didn't say a word, he just pushed the cart and walked home, Katase Hoshiri followed along, and the two Katase sisters glanced at each other from behind, and then quickly followed.
Although it was only a few minutes away, the night in this town was dark and quiet, even the crunch of a small cart could be heard, and the Rintaro and the others didn't seem to disturb the peace anymore, and it was very quiet all the way.
When he came to the door of Rintaro's house, when Katase Yorai opened the door, Katase Hoshiri finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The streets of this town are so quiet."
"Hmm...... It is very strong and makes you want to keep it quiet. Katase Hazuki nodded in agreement: "Isn't there any activity in this town at night?" ”
"Although we are a small town in terms of size, we are actually rural, and there is not as much activity in the countryside at night as in the city, and most of them are staying at home to rest and prepare for the next day's work. It is a very quiet place that is only lively at night when the holidays come. ”
"In that case, when is the next event you have here?" Yorai Katase looked back and asked.
"Hmm...... I don't know much about that. ”
"Hey, hey, are you really the one who grew up here?" Katase looked at him suspiciously.
"I didn't go to these festivals very much before, and I mostly stayed at home." Rintaro casually made an excuse.
"Oh...... I thought about it, Rintaro, you used to be a junior high school boy, so you shouldn't have any friends to hang out with, right? Rai Katase was very satisfied with his explanation, and even nodded his head in a matter-of-fact manner.
…… Maybe that's the case.
Rintaro didn't refute, but he felt some sympathy in the gaze of Hoshiri Katase from behind him.
Being able to discern the meaning in someone's gaze is also an essential skill for a good tutor.
Walking into the courtyard, Katase Yorai walked towards the main entrance, but Rintaro pushed the cart and walked into the courtyard behind: "The kitchen is next to the living room, it's easier to go from the back, just come in through the main entrance." ”
"Can you move such a big melon Rintaro alone? Let me do it anyway. Katase Yorai walked out directly after opening the door, pushed Rintaro and walked towards the courtyard, and by the way, he turned back to the two sisters and said, "Xiao Hazuki, Xiao Xingli, help pick it up inside." ”
Because of the fast movements, Katase Yorai directly pushed Rintaro away, Katase Hazuki took a step slower, stared at the two of them from behind, and then snorted and took his sister in through the main entrance.
Rai Katase seemed to be proud of his success in such a battle, and he had a smile on his face. It's just that Rintaro doesn't quite understand that this kind of distance that doesn't even take ten seconds to walk over is really necessary to fight? And the small cart can really only be pushed by one person.
Pushing the cart to the backyard, Katase Hazuki was already standing in the corridor looking at the two of them, Rintaro only felt that this speed was a bit outrageous, and was stunned for a moment, and Katase Hoshiri ran over from the entrance on his feet.
“…… There are so many watermelons that you can't fit in the refrigerator, so wash one first, cut it and put it in the refrigerator, and put the rest in the corner of the living room first. It seems that this is the only place in the house so that it won't be too much of a problem. ”
Katase Hazuki went to the kitchen with a medium-sized melon, while Katase Yorai and Katase Hoshiri put the other melons in a corner of the living room one after another, and the originally empty living room had a little more things and didn't look so empty. Watermelons are truly magical things.
After a little busyness, the four of them sat down in the living room again, forming a circle around the table. The Monopoly game box on the table has not been put away.
There was silence for a while.
"Why don't we continue playing?" Yori Katase proposed.
"Forget it, you can't do this all the time." Katase Hazuki shook her head.
The living room can really be said to be very empty, there is no entertainment, and the four of them are sitting together, just staring.
Hoshiri Katase blinked: "It's so quiet." ”
It's the countryside after all.
For the time being, Rintaro could only think of such an answer.
“…… In short, it's not too early to find a time now, come all the way today, if you don't mind, you can go take a shower first, and talk about other things later. ”
The three sisters looked at each other and nodded.
