Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

Seeing the reply, Kato Yusuke did not leave in a hurry, but went back to the store to buy a bottle of oolong tea. Just sat in the lounge area by the window and chatted with the girl.

[Kato Yusuke: Well, this is a pure love theme, do you think it's okay? 】

[Yin Lili: I actually draw pure love... I don't care if it doesn't sell well, but this one is quite well drawn, and there should be people who will pay for this. Well, doujinshi almost always attract customers by their cover. 】

[Yusuke Kato: I'm relieved to hear Mr. Kashiwagi Eri say so, and I'll have to ask you to guide me in the later part of the storyboard. 】

[Yin Lili: ... I can do this kind of thing without you telling me, and now my father has agreed with you to join the club. If your work is not good enough, it will be me who will trouble you. 】

Is this because you are worried that you will damage the reputation of [egoistic-lily]? ——Kato Yusuke smiled lightly.

[Yingli Li: First of all, make sure that you are in a hurry to make money, right? Then the summer comi in August is the best opportunity. In short, please grow up in these two months. 】

Summer comi - the full name of Comic Market, is usually held in mid-August every year for a total of three days.

On the other hand, the winter comi is held every December, and both are held at Big Sight, or Tokyo Big Sight, located in Ariake, Koto-ku, Tokyo.

According to Wikidata, the so-called doujinshi sales meeting is a gathering activity to distribute, publish and sell doujinshi.

This is an event that symbolizes Japanese otaku culture. There are a lot of doujinshi related to manga, animation, and video games circulating in the venue, and all the participants from different styles gather here.

Some people come to buy, some people are selling, and some people will resell them to medieval fan shops in order to earn the difference, or simply put them on online auctions.

Among them, the "seller", the one who made the book, was a particularly sinful group of people from the perspective of the otaku.

...

While thinking about this, he replied to Eiri.

- [Understood, I will try my best. 】

[Ying Lili: That's good... By the way, remember to bring a copy of the original painting of the painting just now, and I will update your work on the club website. 】

This is a pleasant surprise, but if the network is updated, as long as there is an electronic version, will it be enough?

Even though he thought so, Kato Yusuke wisely did not point out this point, but responded cooperatively—【I see. 】

Then there was no more, and the phone went silent.

The rain outside the window is still not too small, and in this pattering rain, I feel inexplicably wanting to eat oden.

Looking at the time, it was almost noon, so I went to the cashier and picked out some ingredients I wanted to eat.

Chicken meatballs, beef tendon, lucky bag rice cakes, konjac shreds, fish cakes, small octopus, and the essential - daigen (white radish).

Add miso sauce, mustard, and yuzu sauce for a total of 700 yen.

After paying the bill, I went back to the rest area, and I ate oden while listening to the sound of rain.

Plump chicken meatballs, chewy beef tendon... At the end, I finish off with the boiled big root, which is soft and full of soup. After a meal, the appetite is very submissive.

After cleaning up the rubbish I generated, I couldn't help but wonder what Sayu would eat at noon, so I was ready to send an email to ask.

Xu Shi was in a good mood, and when he sent his own email, he also received a new email at the same time.

[Yusuke Kato: Have you had lunch yet? 】

[Ogihara Sayu: Have you had lunch yet? 】

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, presumably the other side should be similar.

[Ogihara Sayu: Hehe, I’m eating because it’s just a break, where’s Yusuke? 】

[Yusuke Kato: I ate oden at a convenience store. 】

As if feeling apologetic, the other side replied immediately.

[Ogihara Sayu: Sorry (\u003epeople\u003c;), I will definitely prepare lunch for Yusuke next time! 】

[Yusuke Kato: Don't worry, I want to eat it myself, don't I think I want to eat some soup in this weather? 】

[Ogihara Sayu: Hmm... Really, is it okay to cook miso soup that night? 】

[Kato Yusuke: Yes, anyway, your craft is delicious no matter what you do. 】

After talking here, the phone rang directly.

Pressing the answer button, the girl's soft voice entered her ears.

"Yusuke?"

"Um."

"That... Actually, there is one more thing I want to tell you." Sayu said hesitantly: "The colleague I said before, do you remember?"

"Colleague?" Kato Yusuke was slightly startled, "Is that the girl who took your picture last time?"

"Ah... yes." The girl continued, "Mami said that she wanted to come to the house today, but I couldn't refuse. I'm really sorry."

"Have you been bullied by that person?"

"...Hey, there's no such thing."

"Then why apologize?"

"Uh...how should I say..." Sayu said cautiously, "This...won't it cause you trouble like that?"

heard. Kato Yusuke sighed slightly and deliberately put on a tone of fake blame.

"So, why are you being so polite?"

"Eh?"

"That is to say, there is no problem on my side. As long as you like, you can invite friends to play anytime."

He considered his words and said, "After all, this family also has your share, so there is no need for this."

After speaking, the other side suddenly became quiet.

Through the handset of the mobile phone, the girl's breathing could be clearly heard after a slight pause, followed by a somewhat shy and well-behaved response.

"Well, I see... Then I'll take her back tonight~!"

As if to convey her excitement, the girl continued.

"Ah, and I think she'll probably stay for dinner, so I'll make dinner a little richer, okay?"

Isn't this more natural?

Kato Yusuke smiled, "Ok, do you need to buy ingredients then? In that case, I'll go help too."

"No~~ I'll ask Mami to come with me, Yusuke, please stay home and look forward to it~~!"

"I see."

Hearing Sayu say that, he stopped insisting, just paused and said.

"Well...Although I think you are more delicious, I will still look forward to it for the time being."

"...!"

After a brief silence.

The girl lowered her voice and said in a dragged tone, "If Yusuke wants to..."

Then there was a string of silver bell-like laughter, like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, melodious and melodious. With a girl's youthful splendor, and a bit of anticipation.

"idiot."

Kato Yusuke couldn't help laughing dumbly, the lines between his eyebrows softened, and then he hung up the phone.

Looking at the call records of the mobile phone, there seemed to be stars twinkling in the boy's eyes like the night sky.

I do not know how long it has been.

"Then, go back."

Kato Yusuke, who exhaled slowly, stood up and stretched a long, lazy waist.

Retrieving his umbrella from the basket at the entrance, the boy pushed open the door and walked out.

The tall figure drifted away in the rain.
