Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home - Chapter 666

Chapter 666 Departure

Saturday at Shinjuku Station, seven o’clock in the morning.

Kato Yusuke was standing on the side of the road, talking on the phone with Eriri.

“…So, you’re not free until tomorrow night, Yusuke.”

“Yes. Although I’m a little sorry, I have an appointment with someone else, so please bear with me today. If you still feel scared at night, remember to go to Aunt Sayuri.”

“…you don’t have to talk about people like cowards, do you?”

Ying Lili was a little dissatisfied at first, and then softened, “But I know, thank you for being willing to stay with me these three days, it has been a great help.”

“Don’t worry about a little thing.”

Kato Yusuke looked around, seeing the hurried crowd and the constant flow of vehicles in front of him, it was crowded and busy.

Today is the day he and Kei agreed to go to Mount Fuji.

He came half an hour earlier than the appointed time, and the other party hadn’t arrived yet.

“By the way, Yusuke, listen to me~!”

Ying Lili’s tone suddenly became cheerful and lively.

“It’s snowing on the Nasu Highlands right now? It’s been snow-white since yesterday, it’s super dreamy!”

“It’s snowing…? Did you add clothes to yourself and keep warm?”

“Let me tell you, this kind of reaction shouldn’t be the case here! What’s the matter with you? Where did you come from, old man!”

Ying Lili snorted angrily, feeling very displeased with his pragmatic thoughts, and then changed her words.

“Well, Yusuke, I actually came up with a good idea yesterday!”

“Good idea?” Kato Yusuke asked cooperatively, “Is it about painting?”

“That’s right! I’ve always drawn characters and backgrounds on different layers, right? Then, because I also joined the art department, I felt that this method of painting was really wrong.”

“But that’s Galgame’s mainstream approach?” Kato Yusuke replied succinctly.

“But I just feel uncoordinated—!

It feels like pasting people who are originally from other places in a landscape without people…

But it’s no wonder, it’s actually posted from somewhere else. ”

“Then what?”

“So I changed my mind a bit… In the end, oil painting and watercolor painting don’t have layers at all. I think that in one picture, the characters should be blended into the scenery to complement each other~!”

As if immersed in new inspiration, Ying Lili’s voice is full of excitement and eagerness.

Yusuke Kato became a little more serious and thoughtful, “In other words… do you want to change the way you draw from now on?”

“That’s right~! Everything will change, huh?”

Ying Lili replied crisply: “First draw the picture with a drawing tool, then scan it into the computer with a color scanner, and then continue to paint on the computer.”

“That way…will take a lot of time and effort, right?”

“Of course, but it will work! Well, anyway, I think I can do it, ah ha ha.”

Ying Lili thought for a while, then said cautiously:

“The only problem is… this may make my painting style different from the previous CG works, and the overall effect will also be different, but I will try to control it. So Yusuke, do you agree with me doing this…? ”

“…”

Yusuke Kato thought for a while, and realized that the other party had actually made a decision, and there seemed to be only one thing he could do, so he expressed his position like this.

“Okay, do what you want to do, don’t be too restrictive, and don’t care about other things, just draw what you want.”

“Really—!? Ah, but…wouldn’t that destroy the overall coordination of the game?” Ying Lili said worriedly, as if she was worried that it would embarrass him.

In fact, it is true.

In the industry, no game company dares to ignore the overall balance of the game.

Especially in text adventure games like Galgame, it is even more important to maintain the overall consistency of the painting style, otherwise it will make people feel fragmented and unnatural.

This is also the reason why Kato Yusuke asked Sagara Mayu and HASHIMA to go to sea to match the painting style of Eirina.

But now…

“—You just do it, I will do everything else.”

He said with a clear attitude: “But I still say the same thing. It is a good thing to be motivated, but you must also pay attention to your body. Don’t be too high.”

After a while, there was a hum from the receiver.

“…Well, I see, I listen to you.”

Eriri took a shallow breath, and then whispered: “…Yusuke, I really want to see you.”

As soon as the voice fell, it became quiet.

“…”

Yusuke Kato was silent for a while, and complained in a relaxed tone: “This is really not like you, I have goosebumps?”

“What was your reaction…” Ying Lili spat: “Isn’t it all because I heard your voice that I couldn’t help being lonely?”

“…you don’t have a fever?”

“No, why are you cursing me? Damn it.”

…It really is abnormal.

Kato Yusuke twitched his brows, thinking: “Otherwise, I’ll go there tomorrow, do you need anything?”

“Don’t come!”

“Well…?”

“I’m going to concentrate on painting next, so don’t bother me. But… I do want a condolence item.”

Seems to be back to normal again…

Kato Yusuke asked while thinking: “Condolence…what do you want?”

“Encourage me.”

“Um…?”

“Can you say to me…”You can do it, you’re really good, you’re a genius”? ”

Ying Lili asked in a murmur, her voice full of expectation and pleading. Even across the phone, Kato Yusuke could imagine the master’s uneasy look at the moment.

He froze slightly, then lowered the corners of his eyes steadily.

“…Actually, even if you don’t say it, I always think so. After all, you were the one who brought me into the industry. How could I question your ability? So come on, Yinglili.”

“…Eh heh heh.”

Ying Lili smiled shyly.

“It always feels incredible. Hearing Yusuke that you are looking forward to me, I feel like I can do anything… So I will not disappoint your expectations, and I will definitely become the number one in your mind.”

“Okay.” Kato Yusuke reminded in a warm voice: “Remember not to get too hot-blooded.”

“Sorry~ I can’t do that anymore, I can’t calm down anymore.”

“Hello.”

“I’ll do it well, okay? So just watch me, goodbye, dear—!”

Ying Lili finished speaking in one go, then hung up the phone.

Kato Yusuke shook his head dumbfounded, and put the phone back in his pocket.

He rejected several passers-by who came up to strike up a conversation. At 7:25, a Toyota Aqua stopped in front of him.

The next second, the window of the driver’s seat was lowered, and a woman with long hair fluttering showed her face.

“Hello~”

The other party greeted him carelessly.

Gorgeous black hair, regular facial features, slightly mature makeup, beauty mole around the mouth, about twenty years old—

“…?”

Kato Yusuke looked at the big beauty in front of him, and at the same time felt a sense of deja vu and unnatural disobedience. Before he could think about it—

“elder sister.”

Hui put on an indescribable expression, got down from the back seat of the car, and revealed the identity of the woman.

Kato Yusuke couldn’t help being taken aback for a moment, and immediately greeted politely, “Hi, I’m Kato Yusuke, and it’s Megumi—”

Before he finished speaking, the other party interrupted:

“Yeah~ I know you, Kato-kun, you are Xiaohui’s boyfriend, right?”

Kato Yusuke: “Huh…?”

“Sister!” Hui hurriedly denied: “Yusuke and I don’t have that kind of relationship, we are just classmates and partners in the studio.”

“Here we go again~~ You often go to other people’s houses to cook, so what’s there to be shy about?”

Hui: “…”

Ignoring her younger sister’s condemning eyes, Hiromi Kato leaned out her upper body a little while smiling.

“To sum up, Kato-kun, I am Megumi’s older sister, named Hiromi, you should get along well with Megumi~”

Yusuke Kato came back to his senses, “…Hello, Ms. Hiromi, it’s the first time we meet, please give me your advice.”

“Ahaha, you don’t need to use honorifics? By the way, calling you Kato-kun always feels like calling you father or brother. Can I just call you Xiaoyu?”

“This… is also fine.”

“Is that right? You said it’s okay~~ Then relative, you can call me Hiromi-san or older sister, okay? Xiaoyu.”

“Well…”

Yusuke Kato was a little hesitant, comparing the two sisters back and forth, not knowing how to respond for a while.

Although the two look alike, their personalities are very different.

Compared to the quieter Hui, Hiromi’s social skills are astonishingly strong.

“Enough, sister. Thank you for sending me here, you can go back already.”

“Don’t be so indifferent ~ I am now also shouldering the responsibility of a guardian, so let me see if Xiao You is suitable to be your boyfriend.

By the way, Megumin is also amazing to be able to find a handsome guy of this level as a boyfriend~”

Hui showed a headache expression, and said unhappily: “…Why don’t you listen to people, sister? I clearly said that we are not in that kind of relationship anymore.”

“Hey, but it’s the first time people see you going out with boys, so of course they think so?”

Hiromi said so, and winked at Kato Yusuke, “So please give me your advice, Megumi’s boyfriend~”

“—Sister, please stop in moderation.”

Megumi glared at her older sister impatiently, trying to end the conversation, but Hiromi completely ignored it.

Yusuke Kato watched their reactions, and after thinking for a while, replied, “I’m sorry, Hiromi-san, Megumi and I are still friends for the time being, we are not dating.”

“”Huh…? “”

The two sisters cast their gazes at the same time.

“temporary?”

Hiromi thought for a while, then quickly looked him over from head to toe, with an interested smile on his face.

“Hmm~~ So that’s the case? I’m sorry, Xiaoyou, my sister is an awkward girl, please be more patient.”

The other party looked around as he spoke, and turned his head curiously.

“Speaking of which, aren’t you going to go to group activities? Why are you two here, and the others?”

“…”

Hui’s shoulders stiffened slightly, and he replied nonchalantly: “Because, it’s not time for assembly yet, everyone should still be on the way.”

Yusuke Kato didn’t speak, it was the default.

“still on the way…?”

Hiromi blinked, glanced back and forth across their faces, raised her brows unexpectedly, and snorted meaningfully.

“Okay~ Since Xiaohui has said so, I will treat it like that, sister.”

“…”

Hui frowned slightly, but said nothing.

Hiromi chuckled and shifted her target.

“Then Xiaoyou, Xiaohui will be handed over to you? When you become Xiaohui’s boyfriend, you are welcome to come to our house as a guest. Goodbye!”

After she finished speaking, she smiled brightly, waved lightly in front of her chest, and drove away.

Yusuke Kato watched the car go away, and did not look back until the Toyota Aqua had completely disappeared.

“Your sister is amazing…”

When he said that, Hui immediately nodded in agreement.

“Sorry, that’s just who she is.”

“I thought you would come by tram by yourself.”

“That’s because my sister happened to be resting at home today, and she insisted on sending me off when she heard that I was going out. I couldn’t find an excuse to refuse.”

Mei said so, showing a depressed expression.

“I see.”

Yusuke Kato understood, without saying anything, pointed to the side of the road, “Then let’s go, the bus is already waiting.”

The girl nodded in agreement.

So the two bought the tickets together, boarded the express bus to Mt. Fuji, and sat down in the last row.

By the way, their climbing equipment has been sent to the local area in advance. Except for the mountaineering suit and some personal belongings, there is no extra burden, which is very convenient.

After the bus started, Hui suddenly received a message and showed a displeased expression.

Seeing this, Kato Yusuke asked, “What’s wrong?”

“…is my sister.”

“What happened to Miss Hongmei?”

“Forget it…it’s nothing, Yusuke, don’t worry about it.”

“Looking at your expression, sister Hongmei mentioned me?”

Hui nodded, hesitated to speak, and hummed: “My sister invited you to her wedding, do you want to go?”

“Wedding?”

Yusuke Kato was stunned for a short while, and suddenly said: “So, I remember you mentioned this matter before, sister Hiromi got married in June, right? All right, I’ll go.”

“Huh… are you serious?”

“Um, what’s the problem?”

“Because, Yusuke, you don’t know Hiromi-san well, so there’s no need to agree, right?”

“But didn’t someone else invite me? I have to agree, right?”

Hearing this, Hui slightly frowned, “Even if my sister said that, you don’t have to force yourself.”

“No, I didn’t feel forced. Help me thank Hiromi-san, and tell her that I will definitely go when the time comes.” Kato Yusuke said quite confidently.

Hui stared into his eyes seriously, and reminded:

“Although I think you should understand this situation, at the wedding scene, there may be many relatives of my family present?”

“And then?” Kato Yusuke turned his head slightly, “Could it be that your relatives can eat people?”

“…the joke isn’t funny at all. They don’t eat people, but you might get some inquiries or attention, Yusuke.”

“You are exaggerating, even if you are just a classmate, you can attend your friend’s sister’s wedding. You think too much, don’t worry about these little things.”

“…”

The girl stared at him for a while, then looked away angrily.

“…Anyway, I’ve already reminded you. Since you insist on going, I’ll reply to Sister Hongmei. If something happens then…I don’t care?”

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and fiddled with the phone.

Yusuke Kato smiled without saying a word, took out a pair of white bluetooth earphones from his pocket, and gently inserted one of them into the ear of the other party, which caused the owner to look inquiringly.

So he picked up the phone and shook it, and explained with a smile: “Mr. Goto recently sent me a lot of game songs, let’s listen to them together, just like usual.”

The so-called usual way refers to the time when they share music together.

It can be on the tram, on the back seat of a bicycle, or while shopping or walking, anytime, anywhere.

Hui looked at the earphones he wore in his ears, as if looking at a tie, and a slight warmth surged in his heart.

“Earphones, are you using them properly…”

“Yeah.” Kato Yusuke nodded with satisfaction, “This earphone is very convenient to use, I like it very much, thank you for the gift.”

“You’re welcome.”

The girl looked at his face, with a gentle smile on her face, and said softly, “I like it too.”
