In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 269 Love and Responsibility
(Recently, the work status is really bad. Although I really want to continue writing, but the feedback is getting less and less, many people have given up or it will be finished next week)

The rain falls on the street, and the sound of knocking can be heard clearly.

The appearance of Hanamaru Hanabi being wet by the rain made her look even more pitiful.

The rainwater from the eaves slid down the half umbrella propped outside, hit the polished ground, splashed into water droplets and quickly gathered into water, flowing down the road, reflecting the appearance of him holding an umbrella in the folds.

Facing the girl in front of him, Kai Uesugi felt inexplicably cherished when he saw her wet face.

I really want to just hug her like this and feel the warmth of her snuggling in my arms.

"Sir! Your two croquettes."

Inside the window of the small shop, the female clerk poked her head out a little curious if the two young couples had a quarrel, and they didn't go home after being drenched in heavy rain, so they stood here dryly.

"Well, thank you."

Kai Uesugi took two packed croquettes from the boss, cleaned up his emotions, and faced Hanamaru Hanabi again and said:
"Together or not?"

He handed over the other unopened umbrella in his hand.

Hanamaru Hanabi didn't speak, she grabbed the umbrella he handed over with her small hand, clasped her hands horizontally in front of her, moved her steps, and leaned against his side.

Kai Uesugi looked at her cautiously approaching, and knew in his heart that she really needed him, and he really needed her.

To fill up the loneliness in each other's hearts, the thing called love is in every time period of getting along.

Just any word she said to herself on weekdays is precious.

Hanamaru Hanabi held the croquette he gave her in her small hand, and ate it carefully under the umbrella he held.

"Let's go home and change clothes first."

"Yeah," Hanamaru Hanabi responded in a low voice, hugging the croquette against her wet hair.

The neon lights in the rainy sky of Tokyo are covered with a veil, and the flowing water on the ground reflects the lights of the shops. Pedestrians in the city streets are constantly moving towards their respective goals.

The female clerk of the croquette shop watched them stand together under an umbrella, one tall and one short, and they walked to the other side of the street together when the green light turned on.

"reconciled?"

----------

When the time came to the next morning, the sudden rain gradually stopped.

Uesugi Kai, who was sleeping on the bed, suddenly felt chilly and struggled to open his eyes, only to realize that all the quilts on his body had been snatched by the girl beside him.

He sat up and turned to watch her sleep.

You grab the quilt every day, and you don’t know how your husband will die from the cold in the future.

It's time to hold the portrait and cry!
Kai Uesugi stared blankly at Hanamaru Hanabi, complained a few words in his heart, then forcibly lifted the quilt she was holding tightly, and burrowed into her bed.

It wasn't until he got into her arms that the girl's fragrance wafted into his nostrils, then he was willing to stop.

At this time, Hanamaru Hanabi was not awake and was still sleeping. With the help of the faint light outside the window, Uesugi found that she was sleeping soundly.

Sleep well?

Uesugi Kai's hands under the quilt swayed on her small waist for a while, and swayed up and down her stomach from time to time.

Rao Hanamaru Hanabi was sleepy and sleepy, and was woken up by his random touching.

"Mr. Zhao."

"Don't move around, just feel it."

"What do you feel?"

Hanamaru Hanabi's face was very red, because his movements suddenly became flustered, and he pushed back with his small hands, "Kai-kun, don't."

Uesugi Kai automatically ignored her weak little hand, put one arm around her, and whispered in her ear: "Yesterday, Hanabi helped me in the bathroom, and today I will help you, helping each other, right?"

"But... Kai-kun didn't help once in the bathroom yesterday." Hanamaru Hanabi became more and more embarrassed as she spoke.

"It's called payback."

"Huahuo, do you have a fever?"

"No, no"

"Try sniffing. I have a stuffy nose and haven't had a fever. It seems that I was drenched in the rain last night."

"Didn't you take a shower immediately when you got home?"

"Little fool, you had a cold before, but you didn't have an attack. Get up quickly and go to the hospital. I'll help you get dressed."

"Kai-kun, it's better for Hanabi to dress herself."

"You want me to go out?"

"Um"

"Row."

Kai Uesugi put on some clothes after getting up, picked up his mobile phone and left the room under the gaze of Hanamaru Hanabi on the bed, and closed the door.

He was leaning against the door, just about to take out his mobile phone to read the news, when there was the sound of the room being locked.

"Kai-san, wait a minute, it will be fine soon."

Uesugi Kai smiled at the phone, "Is there any need to be so shy? Just like a little girl."

After speaking, he suddenly realized that she was indeed a 17-year-old girl.

Before I knew it, I felt like an old married couple.

Uesugi Kai fell silent outside the door, his childhood sweetheart has been almost 15 years, time really flies.

Obviously, when she was a child, she smiled at herself in the park as if it was yesterday.

For some reason, there is always a feeling of reluctance.

He picked up the phone again, opened the photo album and scrolled all the way to the end. During the process, it was full of group photos of the two of them eating, walking, visiting the park, and eating ice cream.

Her smiles were fixed at that time, warm and bright.

The more you look down at her face, the more immature, every one is beautiful.

His emotions fluctuated unconsciously, and the corners of his eyes couldn't stop being moist.

Every time she called her name for so many years, she had to use the word 'Jun' no matter what.

And the word Jun is used as a respectful title for men.
Uesugi Kai could feel that she always cherished her love for herself, and was afraid of getting further and further away from herself.

And how should I respond to her sincere feelings?
I don't know, I really don't know.

"Mr. Kai.?"

The door was opened, and Hanamaru Hanabi who was dressed saw him leaning against the wall in a strange manner.

Uesugi Kai turned his head to look at her, suppressed his emotions, and said, "Let's go, go to the hospital first, there is still light rain, I will help you hold an umbrella."

"Kai-kun, what's the matter?"

"I said I was moved by Hanabi and cried, did Hanabi believe me?"

The moment he put down his phone, Hanamaru Hanabi saw clearly the group photo lit up on the screen of his phone, and she couldn't help but whisper to him:
"Mr. Kai, the fireworks are still here."

"I know, I know, I'm just a little... reluctant."

Uesugi Kai took her warm little hand, "Let's go, go to the hospital to check your cold first."

Hanamaru Hanabi looked up at him, nodded slightly, and also held his hand: "Yeah."

The two walked all the way under the umbrella until the hospital.

The doctor said it was just a small cold, just take some medicine and rest for two days.

After returning home, Kai Uesugi didn't want to go to school today, so he wanted to eat the food she cooked and spend a day living together.

The paintings she promised herself to draw are slowly taking shape.

------------

"Ah, didn't you say you're not going to the Wuxin Pavilion?"

"Normally, I don't go, but I have to go to solve something." Kai Uesugi pulled the ring on the tram, and took a look at Hanamaru Hanabi who was sitting on the seat and looking out the window.

The tram went all the way, and after arriving at the Wuxin Pavilion, Uesugi first approached Ms. Sakakibara to inquire about the situation.

From her mouth, he knew that it was a guy named Fujino Masao, who had a fourth degree in Kendo, one level higher than Tachibana Yume, but his strength was lower than hers.

"Oi, I think you must understand that Hanabi is too kind, she won't pursue this matter."

Kai Uesugi shook his head: "No matter what, she did it for me. Some people bully her at will because of their own strength. No matter what, I will never agree."

"That's fine," Sakakibara Nananxiang said, "But Fujino has a bad personality, and he may use some small moves in the competition. You have to be careful."

"On this point, Ms. Sakakibara, please rest assured."

Let Hanabi rest at Sakakibara Anise, and Uesugi walks to the dojo of Wuxin Hall by himself.

There are sevens and eights in it, and they are all people who are training.

When everyone saw him coming in, they were all quiet.

When Tachibana was practicing with others, I saw the dojo suddenly quiet down. I turned my head to look at the door, and found that it was Kai Uesugi. He took off his helmet and ran over to bow his head to say hello:

"Teacher Uesugi."

"Ah."

Uesugi Kai responded, and scanned the crowd in the dojo, but did not find the guy Miss Sakakibara mentioned, "Do you have any plans for today?"

Tachibana and I were stunned, she remembered that Uesugi Kai couldn't say it?

"No, after Mr. Komatsu was injured, we basically practiced by ourselves. After Mr. Fan came here on your behalf the day before yesterday, we were still practicing the skills you taught."

Uesugi Kai thought for a moment, "Well, please gather everyone together and say that the training camp will start."

"Training what?"

"Dual practice."

"The move is too soft, lacking momentum, next."

"Not decisive enough, next."

"The footsteps are vain, practice more and let the feet go, the next one."

"Weak, not enough practice, next."

"next."

"next."

"next."

Seeing that no one in the gymnasium could survive two moves in Uesugi Kai's hands, they couldn't help guessing his strength.

"Sister Tachibana, who do you think is stronger, Shifan Dai or Uesugi?"

Tachibana and I, like the students, all sat around the middle of the competition dojo. The more you look at his skills and decisiveness, the more frightened you are. Is this a level that can be achieved at the age of 18?
She even suspected that the day before yesterday Uesugi Oki let the water go when he competed with her.

After a moment of thought, she said:

"I used to think it was Uesugi-senpai, but now... I think the teacher-in-chief is much better."

"Senior Sister Orange, you said how Shi Fan practiced on his behalf. It's crazy and powerful."

Tangerine has me silent.

In the past, she thought that kendo was all about physical strength, technique and experience, and those in their [-]s and [-]s were the most powerful.

At that time, I had experience, and I was not too old. I had both experience and technology, and my physical strength was not weak.

Is the most powerful age of Kendo.

All previous kendo champions are policemen in their 40s and [-]s, as evidenced by this.

However, now she is a little skeptical, whether she really has talent.

Otherwise, Uesugi has few actual combats, but he is still able to do everything, and his experience is extremely rich.

"The next one, practice the middle posture more in one knife style, this is the basic."

Holding the bamboo knife in his right hand, Uesugi Kai thanked the student in front of him and beckoned him to go down.

He's still waiting to see if that guy will show up.

He already roughly knew who it was, it should be the guy who had been glaring at him the day before yesterday.

Ms. Sakakibara said that he has a bad personality and fits the characteristics well.

Huahuo said that that day, she went up to ask where she was, but was accidentally knocked over by the other party.

She was holding the box so carefully, how could she accidentally knock it over?

Uesugi Kai became more and more angry, and he used two tricks to solve a student.

"Reflexes need to be trained more, next one!"

Bin Yuehui was terrified watching it, worried that it would be his turn next and he would be hammered down by two bamboo knives, the loud snapping sound made him feel pain even though he was wearing protective gear.

He couldn't help whispering to Tachibana who was sitting in front of me:

"Sister Tachibana, do you think Mr. Uesugi is angry and venting his anger on us?"

Tachibana had me look at him: "Not convinced? I am not convinced, but you can go up and try to see if you can survive two moves. If you pass two moves, I believe everyone sitting here will applaud you."

Bin Yuehui shook his head quickly: "Forget it, self-knowledge is the capital of my life today, and I don't want to use it as a tool to vent my anger."

Tachibana smiled and looked at him: "It's not all a tool for venting anger. Didn't you hear that the teacher will add a comment? In my opinion, the questions you often ask are completely covered by him, and they are more refined."

"Masao Fujino!!"

With a clever mind, Bin Yuehui was suddenly brought back to his senses by Uesugi Kai's stern shout, and looked at Fujino Masao who had just arrived at the entrance of the dojo.

Masao Fujino seemed dissatisfied with being called by his full name, with a face full of disdain, he said word by word:

"What's the matter, teacher, fan, generation, sir, student."

Uesugi Kai dismissed his disdain and just said: "You are late."

Masao Fujino put down the kendo bag, drew out the bamboo knife from it, and approached towards Sugi Kai, walking steadily:

"I've always arrived at this time. Are Dai Uesugi and everyone training? I don't know, can you bring me one?"

He stared blankly at Uesugi Kai, holding a bamboo knife in his right hand, his muscular figure made him look very oppressive.

"The last time Senior Sister Ju and Shi Fan competed on your behalf, I was always wondering, how old are you, and you still can't beat a little boy?"

All the students in the group seat subconsciously looked at Tachibana Yume when they heard this, it was full of provocation.

But Fujino is such a person, and he didn't deal with Sister Tachibana in the past.

If Uesugi Shio hadn't come, it wouldn't be easy to overwhelm him.

Tachibana pretended not to hear me, she didn't want to be serious with this guy.

Uesugi Kai smiled lightly and said, "Believe it or not, you can be defeated by a little hairy boy with one move."

Masao Fujino snorted a few times, "Mr. Shi Fandai who came out of nowhere, defeated Senior Sister Tachibana by chance, do you think he can ride on other people at will?"

'Hello!Fujino, Fujino! '

One of his fellow students in the group gave him a wink, signaling him not to continue talking.

Masao Fujino chose to ignore it. He was upset that this kid who was younger than him, a junior with no rank, dared to come on stage as a teacher?

Kaoru Uesugi stood in the middle of the competition field and said casually:

"I don't dare to ride on someone else's head, but it's still possible to ride on your head for a few more feet, and maybe you can find out whether your brain is as thin as your hair."

Everyone has heard that Dai Shifan is deliberately targeting Masao Fujino!
By the way, he mocked him for approaching the bald head.

Hearing that many people were laughing, Masao Fujino clenched the bamboo knife in his hand, his eyes were as angry as the day before:
"Mr. Dai Shifan, I suggest that you take 5 yen and leave here as soon as possible, lest one day you break your leg and fall into the pond in the yard, and you won't be able to get up."
