Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

An unknown road in Tokyo, Japan.

1am.

"Damn it, remember it for me!"

As a standard villain's line sounded in the night, a middle-aged man in a suit suddenly appeared at the end of the street.

With Wu Qing on the corners of his eyes, he was covering his eyes with one hand, while the other pointed at the young man not far away, swearing harsh words with unwillingness on his face.

"roll!"

The boy raised his fist and said in a cold tone, raising one foot to chase after him.

"babble--!"

The middle-aged man immediately showed a look of fear on his face, and ran away in a hurry.

The thick clouds gradually dissipated, and a handsome boy with sharp edges and corners slowly walked out under the moonlight.

Black hair and black eyes, sword brows and star eyes, the tall figure is wrapped in a white shirt and jeans, looking very tall and straight.

"Hey--"

He opened his mouth and looked at the girl under the telephone pole with black ink-like eyes.

The girl has long brown hair that is close to black, and her eyes are very slender, with amber pupils. The line of her nose is very beautiful, but the front end is very round. Her appearance is between "cute" and "beautiful".

Wearing a dark blue suit jacket on the upper body, and a gray plaid skirt on the lower body.

By the way, because she squatted on her knees, the scenery at the bottom of the skirt was unobstructed, so it was black!

"What's your name?"

Kato Yusuke asked.

"Eh?"

It seems that she didn't expect the other party to ask such a question, the girl's eyes were a little blank, but she replied subconsciously.

"Sayu....my name is Sayu."

"What are you doing here at this o'clock? It's dangerous."

Kato Yusuke continued.

"Um......"

For this question, the girl tilted her head first, looked at Kato Yusuke with those amber pupils, then snapped her head back and blinked.

"But there are no trams anymore."

"Are you going to stay here until morning?"

"It would feel cold as well."

"Then go to the hotel. If it doesn't work, there are Internet cafes near the station."

"That won't work either."

"why?"

Sayu had a troubled smile on his face, then pointed to the empty can of coffee at his feet, and said.

"The last money on my body has just been spent."

"So, what about your family?"

"..."

The girl couldn't help being silent, a look of sadness and disgust flashed across her face.

"There seems to be some reason why I can't speak."

Kato Yusuke thought thoughtfully.

This time, the girl reacted.

"...It's probably like that, you know."

Her face was very pale, and she exuded a pitiful "abandoned" air all over her body, and squeezed a reluctant expression towards the boy.

"If that's the case, come to my house."

Kato Yusuke said in a calm tone.

"Huh? But I don't have any money, so is that all right?"

Sayu asked in an expectant and uneasy tone.

And to this, Kato Yusuke answered like this.

"Well, it doesn't matter." He nodded affirmatively, then looked at the girl and said, "You have already paid for the reward, so don't worry."

Yes, it was paid.

because--

"Ding, you have received a new email, please check it carefully."

As his words fell, Kato Yusuke's mind suddenly sounded an electronic female voice that only he could hear.

...

...

"Task completed: [The girl who ran away from home (1/1)]"

"Rewards issued: 5000 points."

[Character: Kato Yusuke]

【Age: 15 years old】

【Physical Strength: 7】

【Intelligence: 5】

【Charm: 7】

【Item: None】

[Skill: None]

【Points: 5000】

【Money: 47300 yen】

The average attribute value of ordinary people is 5.

"Ding, it is detected that the remaining points are greater than zero, the store has been activated, and the host can view it by himself."

...

"Probably so."

Kato Yusuke said in conclusion.

This is an ordinary 1LDK apartment. The kitchen is an open-plan design, which is connected to the bedroom, plus a toilet and bathroom that separates dry and wet. Although the area is not large, it is more than enough to live alone.

"So, you just agreed with me to live here so easily, and you don't even want rent. The most important thing is that you're only 15 years old! You're still a high school student!?"

Ogihara Sayu kept exclaiming, feeling a mess in his head, and his eyes also turned into the shape of mosquito coils.

"That's right." Kato Yusuke nodded, "As I said just now, my parents abandoned me since I was a child, and my grandfather who raised me died two years ago. The only legacy left is this set of apartment, so you can live here without worrying about someone coming to trouble you.”

After he finished speaking, he paused, then continued.

"But on the contrary, just like I won't ask about your past, I hope you don't ask more about the reason why I want to take you in, just understand that there is a reason for it."

"Although you say so..." Ogihara Sayu murmured, with a confused expression on his face, "But I didn't give you anything."

"I see. Is it because you feel uneasy about the unequal supply relationship?"

Kato Yusuke observed her expression, then sighed.

"I've already received the reward... Even if I say that, you probably won't believe it. Seriously, why do you do such a superfluous thing."

After he finished speaking, he raised his head, showed a thoughtful look, and said to Ogihara Sayu.

"In that case, you should be in charge of the housework here from tomorrow."

"Huh? But..."

She looked around, the bright yellow light shining overhead, illuminating the room brightly. Apart from the single bed in the corner, the furniture in the house was only the low table between the two of them.

She was so deserted that she couldn't see the breath of life at all. She even brought the only schoolbag. In this regard, Ogihara Sayu had a wry smile on his face.

"Is it really necessary to clean this place?"

Kato Yusuke understood her eyes, but did not answer immediately. He first took a sip of the water on the table, and then said lightly in a calm tone.

"How not?"

"As you can see, I'm just an ordinary high school student who needs someone to take care of my life. I'm usually a little nervous because of part-time work. If you can shoulder all the housework including cooking, I can also relax. Many, just use this instead of rent."

This is just talking nonsense with eyes open. How can someone who can live alone for more than a year and still go to work need someone else's care?

The person who was taken care of in turn was actually himself, Ogihara Sayu instantly thought of this, but the rebuttal words could not be uttered. He only felt that the other party's plain words suddenly hit the softness in his heart.

She lowered her head involuntarily, her soft long hair covered her face, making it difficult to see her expression, and then said after being silent.

"If Kato-kun is okay with you..."

The voice trembled slightly.
