I Am Reaching The Pinnacle Of My Life In The Magic Card World

After bidding farewell to the young man, Tsukasa loosened his schoolbag from his shoulders and prepared to return to the apartment. As soon as he took a step forward, he was stopped by Maki Matsumoto who was leaving the store and called back to the store.

"You kid, why are you running away after helping me? Do you want something to drink? I have coffee, cola, and milk here..."

"Then you're welcome. Let me have a Coke."

Tsukasa sat on a stool next to the counter in the store and asked for a cup of Coke more respectfully than he obeyed. The coffee was too high-end and the milk was too childish. Even though he was a child, he didn't like milk very much.

It was getting dark outside the store. After sending the young man away, most of the customers in the store had left, and all the remaining few who didn't like them had left.

On the counter, Maki Matsumoto held the poured Coke and handed it to Tsukasa. After Tsukasa took it, Maki Matsumoto sat back on the stool at the counter, and the two communicated cordially.

Speaking of communication, except for the sound of slurping Coca-Cola at the tomb, it was so quiet that it made people feel bored. He had never been a talkative person in his past and present lives. After a while, Maki Matsumoto took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Zhong Jie, didn't you speak so clearly just now? Why are you mute now?"

Tsukasa tasted it carefully, and it seemed to have deep meaning. There was something in the words. He immediately shook his head, his thin and yellow face full of purity and innocence: "Maki, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand it?"

"Otsuka Kai." Maki Matsumoto's snow-white and delicate hands gently stroked Tsuka Kai's hair, "A person's life is undoubtedly very hard. Your father wanted to send you back to Yukinoshita more than once during his lifetime, but you were stubborn and refused. Your father's kindness many times. My sister also knows that from the first sight of you, she knows that you are an independent little man. In fact, you don't have to live so tiringly. You can just relax and don't hide too many worries. "

Since ancient times, sincerity has touched people's hearts. Tsukasa held a glass of Coke for a meal and responded silently. Sister Maki's movements and expressions, and her meaning should not be doubted sincerely. The key is that I sold a panda leather case at the price It’s doubled, why should I think it’s so complicated?

He admitted that he, a time traveler, is several years older than Maki Matsumoto, and he also has a lot of things on his mind, but can he say it without treating you like a lunatic?

If you don’t want to talk about this topic, just try to find a new topic to skip.

"Oh, I remembered." Tsukasa found the small cake left by Sakura in his schoolbag. The cake always had a charming aroma. The aroma of milk mixed with egg and flour always makes the diners who are lucky enough to enjoy it appetize. Wide open.

He carefully opened the transparent plastic cover on the outside of the small cake. The bracketed smile on Xiao Ke's big yellow face was really funny and naughty, making people want to laugh when they saw it. This exactly reflects the maker's delicate and exquisite technique.

When Maki Matsumoto saw the image of the yellow face and big ears on the cake, she felt that it looked very familiar. For a while, she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

"Sister Maki, please taste it." Tsukasa brought the small cake to Maki Matsumoto, with two disposable spoons stuck on the cake. He expected Maki Matsumoto to taste the cake with a pure, sincere, childish, and extremely respectful expression.

As soon as this expression appeared, Maki Matsumoto couldn't even think of rejecting him. Can you bear to refuse a good brother who truly loves and protects you?

She gently scooped a spoonful of cake into her mouth, and tasted it briefly. The cream melted in her mouth, and the aroma of milk was mixed with half of the bright red strawberries, mixed with the juicy and sweet taste of the strawberries, with the fragrance of milk, the sweetness of fruit, and the egg. The fluffy feeling made Matsumoto Maki's eyes light up, and he praised from the bottom of his heart: "Making one requires a lot of effort, physical strength, and endurance, and tests one's calmness. If you can make such a delicious little cake, tell your friends about your dessert skills." It’s not shallow.”

The tone came later, with a somewhat teasing tone. As the beneficiary of the small cake, how could Tsukasa not hear the teasing tone? He also laughed awkwardly, hehe, hehehe, being the first to judge can kill people. , things that obviously don’t exist are considered to be.

I just did a favor, do friends count? At most, he was just a passerby who was a classmate and familiar with him.

Tsukasa muttered secretly in his heart, then denied it and said: "Sister Maki, you are wrong, I just did a small favor."

"Oh, a small favor, what a small favor." Maki Matsumoto looked up and down playfully, her face, which was prettier than half of the women, was filled with the words "do not believe it at all".

In this situation, he knew that talking too much was useless, and explaining too much was just a cover-up in the eyes of others, so he didn't bother to talk too much, so he just tasted it himself and took a bite. Well, it was delicious. Two mouthfuls. It can't be described in words. , three, four or five bites, it was so delicious that I couldn’t stop eating it.

After reaching the bottom, Tsukasa put down the small spoon in his hand and licked a few mouthfuls of the remaining cream from his fingers until there was no trace left.

This is the first time since time travel that I got a small cake presented by the heroines. It’s great. Delicious food always makes people feel happy.

Later, driven by curiosity and concern, he asked Sister Xiang Maki why she opened a store by herself and why she chose the name TWIN BELLS. Who would have thought that these words would evoke Maki Matsumoto's past memories, and her thoughts would reminisce about her dream of a few years ago when her boyfriend was still alive.

It's very calm, so calm that it's like ordinary things happening at home. Zhong Jie listened very quietly, without making the slightest sound.

To summarize, Maki Matsumoto made an agreement with her boyfriend when she was in college to run a doll shop after graduation. They had the same interests and hobbies. The couple returned to Tomoeda Town with their passion for the future and their hometown. They bought the store closest to the elementary school and were about to show off their talents. , Unexpectedly, just the night before the opening, her boyfriend died in a car accident, leaving Maki's sister to run the store alone and stick to their dreams.

Later, Tsukasa had a dinner party. During the dinner party, he made Maki Maki laugh again and again by using some happy words from the era of Internet information explosion, which cleared away the haze of sad things in his heart.

In the rental house of Shuangling Apartment, Tsukasa returned home and soaked in the bathtub, staring up at the 10,000 yen in his hand in a daze. The yen was a bit dazzling under the bathroom light.

Ten Thousand Doors was handed over to him by Sister Maki before leaving after the meal. She said that the people in Tomoeda Town were very kind and they couldn't sell it too expensive. This would not happen again. Tsukasa shook his head in his heart. Without a lot of money and a stable source of income, the more money the better.

He also thought of Sister Maki's solemn expression, and asked him in a solemn tone: "Ozuka Kai, such a small mouth has such a sweet mouth, but you have to promise your sister, don't give up on girls all the time."

At that time, Tsukasa nodded indifferently and agreed. Who would like a poor child with no money, no house, no car, no savings, and no parents.

After taking a bath, he put the 10,000 yen in the room together with the original money, and kept it carefully to pay the rent next month. Who knows if the rent in Sakura Country is expensive? It must be close to Tomoeda in the Tokyo area. The rent in town is not that cheap.

I turned on a yellowish desk lamp in my room and quickly finished my homework so that I could go to school tomorrow.
