Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

Pick up your coat and schoolbag on the ground at the entrance and walk out of the coffee shop.

Along with the howling cold wind, the cold rain suddenly hit my face.

It makes people feel as if they have gone from spring in March to cold weather in an instant.

Kato Yusuke, who put on his coat, handed the umbrella to Hasumi Kanoko, and then squatted down in front of her.

"Come up, teacher."

"…………"

But in the face of his invitation, Teacher Hasumi made no move.

So the young man warned: "If the stalemate continues here, your ex-boyfriend might also come out."

Perhaps this sentence touched the other party three seconds after he finished speaking.

Rustling.

A soft body pressed against him again.

There was also an open umbrella above the two people's heads.

Naturally holding up the teacher's legs, Kato Yusuke stood up from the ground neatly and asked aloud: "Where is your home and where should I go?"

Hasumi Kanoko remained silent, but she stretched out a finger and pointed in a direction.

"Is it over there at the station?" The young man whispered to himself, and then walked towards there.

The wind and rain were blowing heavily, and the two people under the umbrella were walking quietly on the street.

The dark brown leather shoes stepped on the water on the ground, creating circles of ripples on it.

From time to time, passing vehicles passed by, illuminating their faces.

Along the way.

Hasumi Kanoko never said a word, and Kato Yusuke didn't care either.

At a speed that seemed slow but was actually urgent, the two gradually approached Toyosaki Station.

Just when he thought the person on his back would be so addicted to it, the other person suddenly asked.

"……Why."

The sound was very soft and very small. If it weren't for the fact that it was close to the ear, it would most likely be drowned in the sound of the rain.

"You're asking why I did this?" Kato Yusuke asked.

"..."

Lian Jian's teacher was silent, but he felt that the other teacher seemed to tap his chin slightly.

So he said, "Because you looked helpless at the time, so you did that."

There was another moment of silence.

But the breathing coming from the back of the neck was a little faster than before.

"...I don't, please do this to you." Hasumi-sensei breathed out the words.

Kato Yusuke responded calmly: "You just didn't say it yourself, but body language can't be hidden."

Perhaps the calmness in his words irritated the other party, or maybe it was the shame of being witnessed by the student who was embarrassed.

Teacher Hasumi's tone suddenly turned cold.

"...You're just a student, what do you know!"

It seems that the emotions accumulated inside are in urgent need of an outlet.

Little by little, Hasumi Kanoko began to slap his shoulders vigorously.

"Who told you to do that...! What qualifications do you have to do that——! You are obviously just a student! Why do you pretend to be like an adult!!"

"What is this...!!? Ugh..."

The hysterical words were mixed with sobs, and together with the sound of rain, they sounded in Yusuke Kato's ears.

There were also a few more blood marks on his neck.

"Crack-"

Along with Hasumi Kanoko's hands and kicks, a pair of high heels also fell into the water on the ground, including the umbrella above her head, which also swayed left and right according to the owner's movements.

"Crash-"

Seizing the opportunity, the rain immediately got in through the gap between the umbrellas, and poured on the two of them mercilessly.

A bit of coolness continued to seep into the body through the skin, making the body dripping wet.

Kato Yusuke's expression changed.

Looking around, he immediately walked quickly towards a nearby pavilion.

So the roof made of stone replaced the umbrella, and the two finally no longer had to be washed away by the rain.

It's just that after a while, their current situation is not much better than that of a drowned rat.

Maybe it was because his emotions were vented, or maybe his thoughts finally returned to calmness after being washed away by the rain.

Hasumi Kanoko's struggle was not as intense as before.

Helping the other person sit down on the stone platform without saying a word, Kato Yusuke took out a beige silk handkerchief from his school bag.

"Teacher, as an adult, you must at least know how to stop losses in time. You can have obsessions, but you can't be stubborn." He said in a deep voice and handed the handkerchief to the other person's eyes.

His eyes fluctuated slightly, and Teacher Renjian raised his hand to push away the handkerchief.

"...That's enough. Don't worry about me anymore. This matter has nothing to do with you, Kato-kun."

The words were mixed with a strong nasal voice.

The originally smooth hair also looked messy at this time, completely losing its usual sophistication.

Dragging her heavy body and being soaked by the rain, she stood up from the ground, as if she wanted to leave alone.

only……

"Um……!"

As she moved, a sharp pain immediately surged up from her ankle, causing her to instinctively fall forward.

Then he ran into a warm embrace.

After helping Kanoko Hasumi sit down on the stone platform again, Yusuke Kato slowly said, "Have you calmed down? I'll take you back."

"Why... can you be so calm?"

Teacher Hasumi hugged his legs and buried his head deeply in his knees, "It's nothing like what you should be at your age..."

What responded to her was the young man's calm words: "I just feel that I shouldn't lose myself in front of anything."

From an angle that Kato Yusuke couldn't see, Hasumi Kanoko's lips kept slurring, and then said in a muffled voice: "I... am not very miserable. Not only was I dumped, but a student also saw such an embarrassing side. ...There is nothing like what a teacher should be like.”

The tone of his voice was full of bitterness.

However, Kato Yusuke said indifferently: "It has nothing to do with identity. Everyone loses control of their emotions sometimes, so there is no need to care."

Seeing the other person's shivering appearance, he took off his uniform jacket and put it on the other person's body.

"Wait for me here, I'll get something." The young man said as he picked up the umbrella on the ground and walked outside.

As the footsteps fade away.

Quietly, Hasumi Kanoko raised her head from her knees and focused her eyes on the young man's back.

The hazy figure walking into the rain curtain seemed to bend down and pick up something from the ground, and then walked quickly towards here.

Before she could see clearly what was in the other person's hand, she quickly buried her head back in her knees.

Not long after, the sound of neat footsteps sounded in my ears again, mixed with the slight sound of clothing rubbing against each other.

Instinctively, Hasumi Kanoko felt that there was an extra person beside her. What followed was the young man's deep and magnetic voice.

"I just left in such a hurry that I forgot that your shoes were still outside, but luckily you didn't lose them."

The moment the words were settled, Hasumi Kanoko's body suddenly began to tremble involuntarily, and the expression on her face became very complicated.

It seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time.

Of course, Kato Yusuke didn't know this. He just said in a calm tone: "Although it's a little wet, it's best to put it on. It will keep you warmer."

The trembling of the body seemed to be more obvious, and a sniffing sound came from the knees.

Silently, the feet seemed to move slightly towards him by a few centimeters.

"..."

Looking up at Teacher Hasumi, Kato Yusuke's eyes moved imperceptibly.

"Click..."

"I'll put the shoes here, call me if you need help."

Hassan saw Kanoko lowering her head, then put the shoes on her feet without saying a word.

…

When Yusuke Kato left, it was probably at the peak of evening traffic.

Standing on the balcony of his apartment.

Hasumi Kanoko, who had put on clean clothes, was holding a cup of coffee in her hand and looking at the figure walking out from downstairs.

When she saw the other party take out an umbrella from her shoulder bag, her eyes immediately widened.

"What is this, exactly..."

A soft murmur came from his mouth.

With an indescribable feeling rising from her heart, the tears she had been holding back since the coffee shop burst out in an instant, leaving two clear marks on her face.

It's like letting out all the repression.

First there was a small whimper, then a low sob, and then it turned into uncontrollable crying.

The cries merged into the wind and rain, and flew far and wide.

downstairs.

If he felt something, the young man holding the umbrella looked back and glanced here.

But there was no one on the balcony.

…
