Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

The two of them visited the cultural festival and had lunch together.

Seeing that Kanoko didn't want to delay him for too long, Hassan volunteered to find other teachers to catch up with the past, so he proposed to say goodbye and go alone.

Seeing that there was still some time before the scheduled trip, Kato Yusuke took the time to take a shower, put on a new set of casual clothes, put on glasses and a peaked cap, and moved in a low-key manner.

At a quarter past three in the afternoon, he arrived at the gymnasium.

It was time for group performances to change, and a slight "buzzing" noise echoed in the hall. People were whispering about something, causing a strange and warm emotion to float in the air.

"Is the drama department's performance next?"

"Have you heard? The drama department's stage play seems very good."

"I've heard about it~ This matter spread yesterday, and it seems that the script was written by that person."

…

In such an environment, Kato Yusuke quietly sat down in the empty seat in the middle of the first row and greeted the long-haired girl sitting next to him. Bajie Zhongwen website

"Good afternoon, Senior Sister Shiyu."

"Good afternoon, Yuu-chan."

The girl turned her face slightly, her soft face dazzling under the light.

"...or in other words, you are finally willing to come, my boyfriend and friend."

"Well?"

"Obviously even that ethics classmate came to watch the show yesterday, but my boyfriend didn't even want to show his face~"

There was deep dissatisfaction in his tone.

Kato Yusuke was slightly stunned at first, and then a gentle and apologetic smile appeared on his face.

"...I'm sorry, I couldn't come because I had to do a patrol yesterday afternoon."

"You said that..."

Shiyu glanced at him coldly, "But when I'm signing autographs for the girls and calling them miss, I'm quite free."

"Uh, you mean, haven't we already discussed this issue, senior? That's just an activity for our class."

"Hey, but you are obviously enjoying it. Even if I want to take you away, you won't."

"That was a misunderstanding...I have already explained this."

"Then will you do this kind of thing again in the future?"

"Well...after all, I am no longer responsible for soliciting customers, so I won't do that kind of thing anymore. Besides..."

Kato Yusuke put his hand into his coat pocket, took out the prepared gift, and handed it over, "This is for you, Shiyu-senpai."

"……Bath ball?"

Shiyu put the bath ball in front of his eyes, used the light above to identify it, and asked in confusion: "Why did you give me this?"

"Well, because I saw Nakano-senpai's class doing this when I was on inspection yesterday, I asked her to guide me in doing it."

"Guide you?"

"Um."

Kato Yusuke nodded in affirmation.

"The project of their class is a DIY bath ball. You can choose the color or scent yourself. I took it upon myself to choose red and rose for my senior sister. Do you like it?"

"...In other words, Yu-chan made this by herself?"

"Although that's true, Nakano-senpai still helped with the preparation of the materials. I just did some simple hands-on work."

"Yu-chan... pinched it..."

…

As he murmured the poem, he put the bath ball in front of his nose and smelled it, and a fragrant rose fragrance floated into his nostrils.

The corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, and her mood suddenly became happy.

"Speaking of it, Yuu-chan~"

"What's up?"

"Why did you choose a rose?" The girl asked with a smile, "Do you know what its flower language is?"

Kato Yusuke was startled when he was asked, then he tilted his head slightly, thought for a while, and said tentatively: "...Is it related to love?"

"Close, but not quite right."

Shiyu happily raised her feet, held her chin with one hand and rested her right elbow on her thigh, then lightly opened her lips, "...the correct answer is, I love you, every day."

A sexy low moan floated into the boy's ears, making him slightly absent-minded.

The girl's face was also slightly red, and her burgundy eyes were clear, bright and moving.

‘How come it’s like a confession…’

Kato Yusuke pursed his lower lip with the tip of his tongue, gave a meaningless laugh, and said casually: "...I see, thank you for your explanation, Shiyu-senpai, I don't know much about this."

"..."

Shiyu stared at him for a while, then smiled sweetly, "No, I am the one who should say thank you. I like this gift very much."

Then, she held the bath ball in front of her face with her green-white fingers, and blinked narrowly.

"…Also~ It feels a bit pity for me to use it alone, so I will save it for a special day and enjoy it with Yuu-chan."

"...!"

On the stage, students are quickly setting up for the upcoming performance.

Today, there are no entertainment programs such as voluntary performances by bands. All of them are performances that are more in line with the purpose of the cultural festival and focus on announcing the achievements of cultural societies.

The next thing to be performed is the drama club's press conference, which aroused the topic on the first day of the cultural festival.

"..."

Kato Yusuke calmed down, suppressed the fluctuation in his heart, and asked: "...Speaking of which, didn't Senior Sister also watch the performance yesterday? Don't you need to participate in class activities?"

As if this sentence touched a certain nerve, Shiyu raised his brows displeasedly, "...I would rather work here than participate in something like that."

As the script manager of the drama department, it is also her job to review whether the actors' performances are up to standard.

"That kind of thing?"

Kato Yusuke thought for a moment, "I remember... the second-year Class D where my senior is in is a haunted house, right? And it was jointly organized with Class E next door."

"It's just a boring activity that relies on some mechanisms and props. Whether it's the people playing it or the people working on it, it's just a waste of life."

"It's really a sharp comment... If the classmates in my class heard this, they would probably cry, right?"

When this was mentioned, Shiyu nodded in disgust.

"That's right. Some fools just can't recognize the truth. They insist on me explaining it clearly. The result is the same as what Yu-chan said."

"Did you say the above words to someone face to face?" Kato Yusuke said dumbfounded.

…

"certainly."

Shiyu flipped her hair coolly, "Although I am an evil, lying, and pornographic woman, I will not lie in a place like this."

Kato Yusuke smiled bitterly: "Generally speaking, it's this kind of place that needs white lies the most, right?"

"...You mean, you want me to worry about their mood?"

"Well, what should I say...?"

"Why? They are not Yu-chan. An evil god like me will not care about those idle people..."

Shiyu paused here and then looked back at him with a smile, "Because I will only be raised by Yu-chan?"

The gentle, charming, and black-hearted voice teased the young man's ears.

Kato Yusuke looked away unnaturally and did not pick up the topic easily.

"But, is it a haunted house..."

He murmured unconsciously, imagining the other party pretending to be a ghost in his mind, and unconsciously blurted out: "If it is a senior, I think she will be a very beautiful snow girl..."

2k

"Eh?"

Shiyu blinked blankly, his face turned slightly red, then moved closer to him, and asked in a long voice: "...What, Yu-chan, do you like this?"

"……Um?"

Kato Yusuke realized his gaffe and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, "No, I just said it casually, senior sister, you don't need to care."

"Haha~ But the snow girl doesn't belong to the ghost family? She should be considered a monster."

A hand gently pressed on his thigh, and the girl's soft and fragrant body pressed against half of his body, infinitely affectionate.

"To summarize?"

The girl lowered her voice and said, "If you're interested, I wouldn't mind putting on that slippery yukata and just letting Yu-chan do some cosplay, okay?"

"...Would anyone use slippery to describe a yukata?"

"Hey~ isn't it smooth and slippery when you take it off?"

"Well, then why do you have to cut off the cosplay and accentuate the later part?"

"When you encounter important points, you should highlight them so that readers can better understand the context of a certain sentence. This is common sense for writers~?"

"…………"

Kato Yusuke couldn't stand her, so he stretched out his hand to hold her hand on his lap, with a look of helplessness on his face, "...Rather than that, let's watch a drama."

Unexpectedly, he would suddenly shake hands. Shiyu, who was originally calm and contented, couldn't help but stiffen his expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly became quiet.

At the same time, the stage was finally ready.

With a "pop" sound, all the lights in the museum went out.

Everyone's attention was focused on the spotlight-lit stage.

Seizing this opportunity, the speaker announced the curtain.

"I have kept you waiting for a long time. Here is the stage play "Rhapsody of Harmony" presented by the Drama Department. The script writer is Kasumigaoka Shiu. The performance..."

Pah pah pah pah——

There was a ringing applause filled with anticipation in the hall.

Kato Yusuke looked up at the stage with a bit of expectation in his eyes.

At this moment, a light weight suddenly appeared on his right shoulder. Five slender fingers also squeezed into his fingers, interlocking with his.

…

Turn around and look.

Shiyu, who was leaning against him, rested her head on his shoulder and looked at the stage expressionlessly.

The fragrance of the shampoo is astonishing, floating quietly in every square inch.

Kato Yusuke couldn't help lowering his head and kissed the girl gently on her forehead.

The other person's body froze, but he didn't say anything. He just squeezed against him again and held his hand so tightly.

Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump heart beats...

…

In the dimly lit stadium, the audience was silent.

Everyone was enjoying the performance attentively, but Kato Yusuke couldn't help but think of what happened a few months ago.

I remember that when he was first elected as the student council president, he also visited a rehearsal of the drama department, and even had the "fortunate" to accompany the girl in an impromptu performance.

Recalling what happened at that time, he couldn't help but shake his shoulders in amusement.

Sensing his reaction, Shiyu raised his eyes strangely and asked in a low voice, "Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing, just recalling some interesting things."

"Funny thing...so what is it?"

"Um……"

Kato Yusuke pondered for a moment, and then told the other party what he was thinking.

When the girl who was originally a little suspicious heard this, she also showed a nostalgic and evil smile on her face, and sighed deliberately glumly.

"...What can I do? There were not many opportunities for me to get close to you, and you were so slow, so that was all I could do at the time, right?"

"...I see, so the scene about the kiss was really added on purpose by the senior sister, right?"

Shiyu chuckled: "After all, if I want you to remember my words, I can't do it without leaving a deep impression~"

"...Well, it's so heavy. It turns out that senior sister has been coveting her since then?"

"Well, why am I such a stalker? You should be used to it, right?"

"Why is your tone full of pride...?"

"If you don't understand, I can tell you it's okay, but the answer lies with you? Boy~friend~jun~"

After turning around, the topic returned to himself.

It seemed that no matter when he was with Shiyu, almost 99% of the topics between them were related to him.

Kato Yusuke was both moved and a little guilty by this, and suddenly thought of something the other party once said.

——You are my only one, but I am just one of yours.

Quietly, complex emotions began to well up in my heart.

In order to prevent his mind from wandering, Yusuke Kato quickly changed the topic.

"... Speaking of which, this performance was full of tension from the beginning."

“The director of the drama department once cried to me that the character had too many lines and the script was too thick.”

"Well, I think that's not the only reason they're crying..."

"Hey~ what is that?" Not knowing whether he really didn't understand or pretended not to understand, Shiyu looked at him curiously.

"Well - from what I saw at the time...Senior Shiyu's severity should have played a large part."

"Am I harsh?"

…

"If you don't understand, I can answer you that it's okay, but the answer lies with you, right? Shiyu-senpai." Kato Yusuke deliberately imitated her behavior.

As if he touched the point of laughter, the girl shook her shoulders and covered her mouth with a chuckle, "Well~ then you can tell me~~~"

"In just five minutes, I was NGed nearly 30 times, and even three members fled... It really left a deep impression on me."

"Do you think I did something wrong?"

"How is that possible? The answer on the stage is already clear, right?"

Kato Yusuke said with a smile: "Looking at the expressions of the audience, everyone must feel that this is a professional-level performance, not a superficial performance by a high school student group at all."

"...You think so because of the actors' acting skills, so if you want to praise them, just praise them." The girl said lightly.

As the saying goes, a strict teacher produces a good disciple, and the mastery of art comes from training.

The masochists who were able to survive Shiyu's devilish training... no, it should be said that they are elite actors and indeed deserve praise.

And the reaction of the audience is the best compliment.

On the stage, the actors' lines are getting faster and faster, the emotions are rising, the actions are becoming passionate, and the plot is becoming more intense.

Superb acting skills bring strong appeal.

The actors' mature performances have completely attracted other audiences.

On the other hand, although their acting skills are very good, the excellence of the script must not be ignored.

"Rhapsody of Harmony"

This is Shiyu's debut in drama and the only drama she has written so far.

Kato Yusuke couldn't help but feel impressed by this.

After all, while taking care of excellent commercial works, she can still take the time to write such a legendary drama playfully. There is no need to say much about the girl's talent.

It was obvious that such a girl could be dazzling wherever she was, but she still fell in love with him.

Thinking of this, his inner sense of responsibility became slightly heavier.

"By the way, Senior Sister Shiyu."

"What's up?"

"Have you arranged the release date of your final volume?"

"Well, it should be on the first of next month, that is, after the cultural festival ends."

"Are there any problems with the illustrations?"

"Thanks to you, the relationship between you and Matsubara Hozumi-sensei has been completely resolved."

"That's it. Well, that's good."

"What about you?" Shiyu asked, "Is the comic series going smoothly? Has it been affected by the cultural festival?"

"...Well, although I stayed up a few nights, I have caught up with the progress."

Kato Yusuke explained:

"I can probably finish the manuscript of Chapter 43 tonight, and I can hand it over to Fusugawa on Monday. As for the single volume, the third volume will probably be released after my senpai."

The girl nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

…

The two continued to enjoy the performance.

Unconsciously, the drama came to an end, and the audience was so focused that they almost forgot to breathe.

Bang, the stage suddenly darkened.

A ray of light shone on the girl who was the director of the drama department.

This is the protagonist's last monologue, which brings the entire drama to an end.

A memorable and legendary performance (for a high school student), it ended with a full house.

The moment it ended, the audience immediately burst into applause of "Wow!"

The stadium was enveloped in thunderous applause and cheers, and even the air inside the stadium became heated.

In this bustling environment, Kato Yusuke suddenly felt his sleeve being pulled.

He instinctively turned his head and looked over, just in time to meet Shiyu's gazing eyes.

Hong Lan opened her lips lightly and spoke two words to him.

--kiss Me.

Amidst the din, the voice seemed to ring directly in his mind.

Kato Yusuke was stunned.

The lights on the stage shone in the girl's beautiful eyes, reflecting his outline, focused and intoxicated.

The cool and beautiful little face was clearly illuminated, with a faint blush on it, and the lips were also very shiny.

An inexplicable emotion suddenly surged in his chest, and something in his heart seemed to be touched.

Without saying anything, Kato Yusuke leaned down.

Shiyu closed her eyes lightly, hooked her hands around his neck, and kissed back rawly and passionately.

Boys and girls kiss each other.

The dark gymnasium was full of excitement, but it was very quiet here, so quiet that it was like you could hear each other's heartbeat and breathing clearly.

——Gentle and charming.

The two figures did not separate until the actors left the stage.
