I.W.B.A.L

Chapter 26: 26



  "No, there is no need for your help. Just sit down and taste my cooking later."

  "By the way, Kento, this guy has some 'drinks' in his fridge, would you like to try them?"

  "drinks?"

  Looking at the smirking Sakamoto Yuji, Kento walked towards the refrigerator, came to the refrigerator, opened the door, looked at the cans of beer inside, was a little surprised, looked back and saw Yoshii Akihisa and Sakamoto Yuji standing at the kitchen counter.

  "You guys still drinking?"

  After Yoshii Akihisa prepared the ingredients, he glanced in the direction of the refrigerator, and saw Kento standing in front of it, as well as the beer in it.

  "That was the beer my dad hadn't finished before he went on a business trip overseas."

  Looking at the beer in the refrigerator, Kento hadn't drunk alcohol for a long time. He stared at the beer for a moment, then silently closed the refrigerator without taking out the beer.

  "By the way, there are some comics in my room. If you feel bored, you can go to my room first. There are many good comics in it."

  "When you get to this guy's house, just treat it as your own home."

  Looking at the two guys who were entertaining him warmly, Kento sat on the sofa in the living room, looked at the game controller in front of him, asked Yoshii Akihisa, and then successfully opened the game. Sitting alone in the living room, he started the game first.

  It took about half an hour for Akihisa Yoshii to ask Yuji Sakamoto to help with some of the ingredients, and he completed the rest of the process independently.

  When Kento and Yuji Sakamoto were sitting in the living room playing pvp, Kento, who was not very familiar with these controller games, was taken away by Yuji Sakamoto's elegant combo, and the voice of Akihisa Yoshii was also heard.

  "Everyone, lunch is ready. Since there aren't a lot of ingredients, I just made a paella. If it's not enough, there's more in the pot."

  Sakamoto Yuji put down the controller in his hand, gave Kento a thumbs up, stood up, and walked towards the dining table. As for Kento, he stared at the screen, sighed deeply, and also walked towards the dining table...

  "Are those photos over there of your family, Mingjiu?"

  While eating, Kento glanced at the photos on the cabinet next to the living room and asked Yoshii Akihisa.

  "That's Mingjiu's sister. They are siblings, but they are two completely different extremes. A smart sister and a stupid brother."

  Before Yoshii Akihisa spoke, Sakamoto Yuji answered Kento's question first.

  "What are you talking about, Yuuji! You're the idiot!!!"

  Seeing Mingjiu starting to counterattack right away, Yuji sighed helplessly.

  "Then tell me, Mingjiu, what was the highest score you ever got on an exam in middle school?"

  "....history?"

  "a bit?"

  "....95 points."

  Sakamoto Yuji looked at Mingjiu in surprise, as if he had not expected that this guy Mingjiu could have such a high score.

  "I'm sorry, Mingjiu, I went a little too far. You're not a complete idiot."

  "Well, since you've apologized, I forgive you..."

  Looking at the two of them, Kento didn't know how to evaluate their friendship for a moment. As for Yoshii Akihisa, he looked at the photo and slowly introduced his sister.

  Yoshii Akihisa's sister Yoshii Rei, unlike Yoshii Akihisa, who could never improve her grades and could only barely pass by rote memorization, is an absolute learning genius. She has now been admitted to a top university in the world and is studying abroad.

  "They are clearly siblings, but it seems like the good ones have all been taken out by the elder sister, and the only one left is this guy Mingjiu."

  Yuuji couldn't help but sigh, causing Yoshii Akihisa to stare at him for a long time, seemingly considering where to start.

  After lunch, the three of them sat in the living room and started playing the game. As for Yuji Sakamoto, he found some photo albums from somewhere. While Akihisa Yoshii was playing the game, he and Kento commented on the models in the photos.

  "As expected, body shape is more important. Such a slim waist looks quite eye-catching."

  "I really still like legs. Nice legs. Wearing black or white stockings, aren't they much better than any body shape?"

  "Those who like legs are heretics. If you want to see something, you should look at breasts."

  When it came to discussing their own XP, both Yuji Sakamoto and Kento became unyielding in this regard, so much so that Akihisa Yoshii, who was originally in the game, also joined in the heated discussion.

  But after discussing for a while, the three of them started to recommend their favorite photo albums and favorite movies in order to convince each other...

  Thanks to EX Victory Sword, Fu Yumo, Diluo Bifeng, Li Jun, Oh, thank you for the hair of King Te, (*T▽T*), Dragon Horn Palace Griffin, the strongest ⑨ sauce, Shuke 67953614751, run! , Tao Ranzui, Yanyuan His Highness's monthly ticket and blade! Thank you all for your recommendation votes!

Cherry Blossom Season: 50. If we agreed to meet on the weekend, then we will meet on the weekend, even if it's one day earlier.

  It was almost dusk when he left Yoshii Akihisa's house. On his way home alone, Kento passed by a Japanese confectionery shop. He stopped for a moment at the door of the store, calculated the remaining living expenses in his pocket, and decided to go into the store.

  "Welcome."

  Standing in the store was a girl with a side ponytail. After Kento entered the store, her eyes stayed on him for a moment. As a good-looking boy, the girl was a little concerned, but she quickly withdrew her gaze and did not look at Kento for long.

  "Excuse me, what kind of Japanese confectionery do you want? Do you want me to recommend it to you?"

  The girl's voice was full of vitality. In response to the girl's question, Kento shook his head.

  "I'll just take a look at it myself first."

  Smelling the aroma of Japanese sweets wafting through the store, Kento looked at the various Japanese sweets on the counter. He had forgotten how long it had been since he had visited a Japanese sweets shop.

  When memories of the past were about to emerge in his mind, he subconsciously avoided those memories that were no longer important. After a brief moment of melancholy, Kento's expression became clear again and he looked at the Japanese confectionery on the counter in front of him.

  Looking at the strange Japanese sweets stacked up like tiles, he had seen them before, but had never understood this kind of Japanese sweets. Curious for a moment, he asked the young girl about it.

  "What is this?"

  There was only one customer, Kento, in the store at the moment. The girl was also using the corner of her eye to notice this boy who seemed a little older than herself and was wearing the school uniform of the nearby Toyosaki Academy.

  Following the direction of Kento's finger, the girl saw the Japanese confectionery he was asking about.

  "Shogoin Hachibashi is a Japanese confectionery made from rice flour, sugar, and cinnamon. It looks a bit like a zither, so it was named after the founder of the Japanese zither, Hachibashi Kenkyo."

  After carefully looking at the Shogoin Hachibashi in front of him for a while, Kento nodded. After he understood it in his heart, he was not very interested in the wagashi in front of him, but he still asked the girl to pack some for him. He also bought some haiko cakes and left the wagashi shop.

  He rushed all the way back to the door of his apartment, took out his key to open the door, and entered the house. Then he began to think about what to do with his dinner.

  He walked to the refrigerator, looked at the many ingredients he bought during the last sale, thought for a while, and took out a pack of udon noodles.

  Take out the kelp, bonito flakes and green onions from the refrigerator, soak the kelp in water, then boil it, add the bonito flakes, filter the water into the pot, add various seasonings, and then pour the clear soup into the cooked udon noodles - clear soup udon noodles.

  Although the whole process of making clear soup udon noodles is not complicated, it does take a long time. Kento happened to have nothing to do, so he stood in front of the kitchen counter, watching the clear soup boil. He sat at the dining table with the udon noodles in his hand and began to slowly enjoy his dinner.

  There was nothing to do after the meal, so I sat at my desk and started reading. At the same time, I began to plan my future and considered whether I should enroll in a private school.

  While reading the book, he did not pay much attention to the passage of time. When it became dark outside, the doorbell rang. Kento who was sitting at the desk could not help but look towards the door. He slowly stood up, walked to the entrance, and opened the door of his apartment.

  He thought that the person appearing in front of him would be Kiyoura Setsuna, with whom he had an appointment, but the person standing in front of him at this moment was not Setsuna, but Setsuna's mother, Kiyoura Mai.

  "Miss Wu, what's the matter?"

  "No, Setsuna is staying over at Sekai's house tonight. He called me just now, so I came to tell him."

  "World... Saionji, aren't they having a girls' gathering today?"

  Qingpu Mai looked at Kento in front of her and nodded. When she received the call, she didn't know how to describe her feelings. She seemed to feel a little lost, but also relieved.

  After receiving the news about her daughter, she sat at home for a while, then felt a little bored and lonely. Seeing the bright lights in Kento's apartment, she came out of her home and came to Kento.

  "We were originally going to finish in the afternoon, but it seemed like it was Sekai's suggestion that we invited Setsuna and a girl named Kotonoha. The three girls will sleep together tonight and may not be back until tomorrow."

  "I see."

  Looking at Qingpu Mai who came to inform him personally, Kento felt a little weird, and for a moment he didn't know how to describe his feelings at the moment.

  My girlfriend stayed overnight at her best friend's house, and her mother came to inform me personally that my girlfriend would not be coming home tonight.

  I guess few people have ever experienced such treatment.

  "Miyamizu-kun, have you had dinner yet?"

  Qingura Mai, who was standing at the door, looked at Kento in front of her. She smelled a faint fragrance of bonito from the house behind him and couldn't help but ask the boy in front of her.

  "Uh, well, it's already been used. Where's Miss Mai?"

  "Already used..."

  Gulu——

  When the voice sounded, a deep blush appeared on the face of the mature and beautiful woman. Looking at the blushing Qingpu Mai in front of him, Kento couldn't help but chuckle and felt that the girl in front of him was somewhat cute.

  "I cooked some udon noodles, if you don't mind, please come in."

  Facing the invitation of Kento, Qingpu Wu gently covered her abdomen with her soft white hands. With blushing cheeks, she pursed her lips tightly. She never thought that her belly would be so disappointing.

  However, faced with the invitation from Kento, she did not hesitate too much and agreed.

  "Well... excuse me for bothering you."

  After entering Kento's apartment, Qingura Mai entered the room and closed the door gently.

  'It worked.'

  Looking at Kiyoura Setsuna and Katsura Kotonoha sitting opposite him, Saionji Sekai, who originally just wanted to give it a try, didn't expect that he actually succeeded in keeping Setsuna. While he was excited in his heart, there was a genuine excitement and smile on his face, and he invited the two of them into his room.

  "Saionji-san's room?"

  Originally, Katsura Yanye just wanted to attend a girls' gathering, but she didn't expect to end up staying overnight at a classmate's house for unknown reasons.

  Fortunately, her mother didn't have any work that day and was taking care of her younger sister at home. Plus, she had already become a high school student, so her mother agreed to give her freedom and allowed her to stay overnight at her classmate's house.

  "Aren't we going to sleep together tonight? We can have a good chat about girlish topics~"

  His eyes were fixed on Kotonoha, making Kotonoha feel that Saionji Sekai was even more like a boy than the boys in the class. She couldn't help but put her hands in front of herself, her expression slightly blushing.

  On the contrary, Setsuna didn't mind these things much. He was originally planning to go find Kento tonight, but after some persuasion from Saionji Sekai, he hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.

  "Tonight is just one night and it won't make any difference. Tomorrow, I will be with Kento..."

  I dreamed that a white silk silk stepped on my face and I suffocated all of a sudden. When I woke up it was already afternoon, haha

  By the way, brothers, please help me complete the 10,000 recommended tasks.jpg

Cherry Blossom Season: 51. Can we talk about something lighter?

  After inviting Qingpu Mai into his house and asking her to sit down in his room, Kento reheated the remaining soup in his pot, added a bowl of udon noodles, and after a while, brought dinner to Qingpu Mai.

  "Thanks."

  After saying thank you, Qingura Mai looked at the udon noodles in front of her, thanked Kento, then picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

  Perhaps it was just her own illusion. After tasting the udon noodles made by Kento himself, she felt that the taste was basically the same as the udon noodles she had tasted in the restaurants she had visited before.

  "Does it suit your taste?"

  After pouring a cup of tea and bringing it to Qingpu Mai, Kento asked Qingpu Mai what she thought.

  "It tastes great, just like the ones in the store. Did Miyamizu-kun learn how to make udon from someone?"

  "As long as it suits Miss Dancer's taste."

  In response to Qingpu Mai's praise, Kento sat down opposite her and replied with a chuckle.

  Looking at the gentle and mature woman opposite him, Kento seemed to see Sayuri of the past in a trance, and his eyes were a little dazed, which made Qingura Mai, who was eating udon noodles quietly, feel a little nervous when she looked up inadvertently and met Kento's gaze.

  The slightly infatuated look made her feel a little nervous for a moment. Her already unsteady heart began to waver all of a sudden. She couldn't help but lower her head again, quietly picked up the udon noodles and put them into her mouth, but her heart was in a mess.

  In the silence, Kento's thoughts became more and more immersed in memories, and Qingura Mai, who didn't know how to talk to Kento, just lowered her head and ate silently.

  For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole room became awkward and dull. Kento was immersed in his own memories and was unaware of it. As for Qingpu Mai, she did not speak to break the atmosphere. It was not until Qingpu Mai finished her meal, gently placed her chopsticks on the edge of the bowl, and stopped eating that Kento came back to his senses.

  "Let me clean up. Miss Wu can sit down and rest for a while."

  "This... that would trouble you, Miyamizu-kun."

  She picked up the dishes in front of Qingpu Mai, washed them in the sink on the kitchen counter, and put them in the cupboard. Sitting in the room, Qingpu Mai looked at the room she came to for the third time. The room was different from the last time she came, and her mood became complicated.

  It was the young boy's room, or the room of her daughter's boyfriend. Qingura Mai looked at everything in the room, quietly closed her eyes, breathed the air in the room gently, and slowly opened her eyes.

  When he opened his eyes again, Kento, who had already cleaned up the dishes, returned to the room and sat down opposite Qingura Mai.

  "What do you usually do when you're alone, Miyamizu-kun?"

  "Hmm? When you're alone? When there's no one around, I'll read a book. There's nothing else to do besides reading."

  It's not that he can't use his own keypad phone to surf the Internet, but because the operation is so ancient, he has no interest in surfing the Internet. He has to wait until his living expenses are enough, and then wait for a while before buying a smarter phone.

  As a person who has been reborn twice, Kento regrets that he has not mastered any core technology, nor has he memorized any winning numbers and figures of the lottery. It is probably impossible for him to be compared with those ambitious protagonists.
