In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 275 Strange Child
The game with children, how should I put it, is to be able to show off yourself with actions, and let the children know that you are very good.

They will come to you because of admiration.

If it was in the past, Uesugi would definitely boast about himself, and it is only natural that he looks so powerful.

Now, or in other words, I have grown up, and I seldom do this anymore.

Since it was morning and the class activities hadn't started yet, Kai Uesugi was quite bored, so while helping to look after the children in Mr. Imanishi's class, he also played the class bowling alley arranged by them.

The pins are the standard pins made of maple and placed at the end of the room.

The fairway is separated by long wooden boards in the middle so that the ball will not roll around.

The bowling ball is lighter than the standard one at around 6 lbs, making it easy for even weaker kids to swing.

As the big brother from the University of Tokyo, Kai Uesugi demonstrated to them what a grand slam is, and made them sit on a stool and exclaimed, "It's amazing!".

He wears glasses, coupled with this face, he also has the temperament of a big brother of literature and art.

A few precocious little girls were also blushing and whispering.

There are also gifts in class games. Participating in them will give you snacks and candies. No.1 can get a doll or toy.

Small gifts and snacks are piled up in the corners of the class, where the boys are especially greedy.

Kai Uesugi accidentally found a big shark with "x" eyes in the pile of gifts.

That was the grand prize. He discussed with his younger classmates whether he could participate in the event and get the first place.

But unexpectedly, everyone shook their heads, resolutely not wanting him to participate in the game.

Hanamaru Hanabi can participate, but she is better at bowling than even a few of her classmates.

Want that shark, count on her, that is hopeless.

"Um, Uesugi brother."

Kaoru Uesugi, who was resting on a stool, was waiting for the lunch time when two little girls shoved and shyly walked over.

"Mizuno and Yuromo, what's wrong?"

Kaoru Uesugi knew the names of these two little girls, and just now everyone introduced themselves under the organization of Mr. Imanishi.

These two little girls are relatively tall in the fifth grade, more like junior high school students than elementary school students, so they are easy to remember.

Fifth grade, should be around 11 years old, right?

Facing Uesugi Kai's question, the two little girls struggled with each other for a while, seeing that he was about to speak again, the girl named Mizuno quickly raised her head and said:
"Brother Uesugi! Yuyi said that you are a lolicon, and I want to confess to you!"

The words were not surprising, and Kaoru Uesugi looked at her innocent expression, and his head was suddenly covered with black lines.

Well done, why did I become a lolicon?

Still speaking from the mouth of an 11-year-old girl.

When Yuyi saw that his good friend turned the blame on him, he argued in a panic: "Mizuno, you are lying! You are the one who said that your brother is a lolicon! You even made your hair cute, hoping that you and your brother can have a romantic relationship Joy!"

When Mizuno heard this, he was unconvinced: "No, no! It's Yu Yi who said that the two are in love! You also said that you succeeded in confessing your love, and you will marry your brother immediately!"

Not to be outdone, Yuyi muttered:
"Mizuno, you still said that my brother is my first love! You told me that my brother is good-looking, handsome, and a senior from Tokyo University!"

"Liar! It's obviously Yuyi."

Yuyi's face turned red: "Obviously, it's obviously Mizuno!"

Kaoru Uesugi glanced at Hanamaru Hanabi who was chatting with the little classmates at the other end of the classroom, and made sure that she didn't notice the farce. Then, facing the two little girls who were arguing, he raised his hand and said helplessly:

"Okay, okay, I'm engaged, you see, the diamond in this ring is so big, is it so inconspicuous?"

As soon as he heard that Uesugi's brother was already engaged, Mizuno and Yuyi immediately stopped their quarrel.

See that big shiny diamond.

Their mood at this time, to use an analogy, is as bad as learning that the goddess who fell in love at first sight has a husband.

After Mizuno and Yuyi were silent for a while, they argued with each other again.

"Look, I just said that Brother Uesugi is married, so it must be sister Hanamaru."

"It's obviously an engagement, Yuyi, you idiot!"

Yuyi pursed his mouth in dissatisfaction, and shouted: "Mizuno, you are a big idiot! I told you that my brother wears a ring!"

"You lied, you lied, you never said that, you idiot Yuromo!"

"Big idiot Mizuno!"

"Big idiot Yuromo! I hate you the most!"

Yuyi put his hands on his chest, turned his head away from the side, and hummed softly: "I hate Mizuno you the most!"

Then, Kai Uesugi, who was unable to say anything, watched the two of them sitting at the two ends of the classroom angrily.

Little girls, are they all like this?
Near lunch time, Mr. Imamishi came to the classroom from the office.

But it seemed that there was something in the school that she needed to deal with, and she left in a panic.

When leaving, please ask Uesugi Kai to help her call the little girl named Ai back for lunch.

That's kind of weird, aren't fifth graders coming back for lunch?

Maybe the skinier kind?
Kai Uesugi took a look at Hanabi who was playing with the children, and after explaining the situation to her, he checked all the places in the school that Mr. Imamishi mentioned one by one.

After walking around the campus for more than ten minutes, he saw a little girl who fit the characteristics under a tree beside the playground.

She wore a slanted hat and stood motionless in the shade.

The hair is very beautiful, and the beautiful texture seems to make the hat slip off with the hair at any time.

Kaoru Uesugi moved closer to her.

"Aiyi sauce?"

"Hmm," the girl replied blankly, her eyes fixed on the ants eating candy under the tree.

"It's time for lunch, Mr. Imanishi asked me to call you."

"Um"

Ai Yi is still this response.

Uesugi Kai felt that she was not very afraid of strangers, because she was not afraid when approached by a pure stranger:
"Are you OK?"

"Nothing. Just watching the ants eating candy"

This should be to feed the ants with the lollipops that they eat.

Observing small animals and insects is indeed a very childlike behavior.

But now it's time to eat.

"The ants will watch it later, and come back to the classroom with me for dinner."

Ai raised her head to look at him, the tilted hat really seemed to be falling backwards.

Her eyes are beautiful, revealing the innocence of a child.

"woo"

After waiting for a long time, Uesugi thought she would refuse, but she nodded in agreement.

"All right."

Seeing her standing beside him like this, Uesugi Kai asked:
"Is Aiyi-chan not worried?"

Aiyi nodded lazily, "It's okay to worry, I'm going to have lunch anyway."

".?"

This answer was a bit strange, and Uesugi Kai didn't follow her path for a while, "I'm not talking about this, you probably don't know me yet, isn't it taught in the textbook, shouldn't you go with strangers you don't know?"

Aiyi quickly replied: "It's said in the textbook. But I know the brother who invited me to lunch, so I also know the brother who invited me to lunch."

".?" Uesugi Kai didn't respond again, "Do you know my name?"

Aiyi shook her head.

"Then Aiyi-chan is still willing to go with me?"

Aiyi nodded.

What a weird kid.

——Uesugi Kai can only come to this conclusion, maybe she feels that she has a kind face and regards herself as a good person?

"What was Aiyichan thinking while looking at the ants just now?"

"Oh, I'm thinking about the exam."

"Did you do poorly in the exam?"

Aiyi nodded, then shook her head again.

"When the teacher asked me to hand in the paper, I realized that the test paper has two sides."

Kai Uesugi found it novel: "You only wrote one side of the double-sided test paper, and only found out that there was a second side of the test paper when you handed it in."

"Well, let's think so~"

How else can I understand it?

Uesugi felt that she was imitating the words of adults, but she was quite cute as a little girl.

"Is Aiyi-chan worried about poor grades?"

Aiyi: "Don't worry, I was just thinking about 'Aiyi only wrote one paper'."

It's a strange way of thinking, primary school students don't worry about the grades when they think about the exam, but simply think about the fact that they only wrote one paper.

Still in the case of watching ants eating sugar.

I don't understand what this has to do with it.

When talking to Aiyi, it is easy to be led by the nose by her thinking, and then think of a bunch of messy things.

What a strange kid.

Uesugi decided not to talk to her until he returned to the classroom.

"Why didn't brother talk anymore?" Aiyi asked proactively.

"There's no need to talk about it. The first priority now is to take you back to the classroom for dinner."

"Will my brother feed me?"

"Why should I feed you?"

"Because my sister is not here, I need my brother to feed me."

What is the reason for this?
It sounds reasonable at first glance.

But it took less than 5 minutes to know each other, and it's time to feed?
Uesugi Kai thought it would be better to hand over Aiyi to Hanamaru Hanabi, but he couldn't handle it a bit:
"I'll take you to find my sister and ask her to feed you."

"My sister doesn't know what she's doing, and I can't find her." Aiyi said stepping on her little feet, the elementary school uniform gave her a very serious feeling.

"It's not your sister, it's my sister, it's the new sister."

"Is the new sister as good-looking as my brother?"

Inadvertently, she was actually praised by Ai Yi, Uesugi Kai smiled and said to her:
"She's a sister who's prettier than my brother."

"Wow, pretty sister."

Ai Yichan seems to be looking forward to the beautiful sister.

Returning to the classroom with the strange child, Aiyi saw Hanamaru Hanabi at a glance, and said to Uesugi Kai, who was tall and tall beside him:

"Brother, it's the new sister."

Uesugi Kai praised her as a return gift: "Aiyi-chan's eyes are very bright, you can see it at a glance."

"What are you talking about, brother? There is only one older sister in the classroom."

"."

Uesugi Kai didn't expect Ai Yi to be able to refute his praise and make himself speechless, what a strange child.

He brought Aiyi to Hanamaru Hanabi.

"Sister, feed me."

You're welcome, we just met.

Uesugi had no choice but to say to her: "Aiyi, before you let your sister feed you, shouldn't you introduce yourself first?"

Aiyi tilted her head: "Didn't my brother call out Aiyi's name just now? The pretty sister already knows it, so there is no need to introduce myself."

Kaoru Uesugi: "."

The appearance of this cute child is simply impossible to complain about.

Hanamaru Hanabi seemed to like her very much. After touching her head, she helped straighten her hat and agreed to feed her lunch.

Aiyi: "Yes! Thank you, new sister."

Wouldn't that be a good way to thank you?

Hanamaru Hanabi: "Does Aiyi-chan have a sister of her own?"

"Yes, Aiyi has her own sister."

"What kind of person is he?"

"My sister is very reliable and likes to drink milk."

Hanamaru Hanabi smiled and said, "That's a coincidence, my sister, like your sister, likes milk very much."

"What does brother like?" Ai Yi raised her head and asked Uesugi Kai again.

He was watching the white-clad staff push in a large cabinet containing the children's lunches.

Elementary school usually eats in the classroom, and the teacher will also eat with it.

"Brother!" Aiyi tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"Coffee." Kaoru Uesugi answered her question just now.

"Is it the hard black thing coming out from under the cat's tail?" Aiyi asked curiously.

"That's cat poop coffee, not ordinary coffee."

"What does normal coffee look like?"

"A wheat-colored, hard oval shape. After grinding this and brewing it by hand, it becomes coffee."

Aiyi still looked up at him: "Wheat-colored, hard oval, isn't that the same as the cat poop coffee I mentioned?"

Kaoru Uesugi is not going to get to the bottom of it with her, because he will only be led by the nose by this little loli:
"Ai Yichan just needs to remember that even if they are also wheat-colored and hard oval, there are differences. For example, people's ears, noses and faces, although everyone has the same corresponding characteristics, they are just different. difference."

After hearing his words, Aiyi really lowered her little head, and stood there motionless, as if she was thinking.

The child was much sweeter when he was quiet.

In elementary school lunches, there will be milk in each meal, and then some fixed meal recipes will be changed regularly, trying to make each meal different.

There is also a system of "giving food to the class", which is similar to the day-to-day students. Translated into Chinese, it is the person who is in charge of the food today.

The little students put on special white coats, hats and masks, and served meals for everyone.

The pupils who are on-duty students have to confirm with the teacher that they are not sick, introduce today’s dishes to the students before serving meals, report the remaining food, and tell the teacher how many soups are left, etc.

If lunch is not enough, and at the same time, some classmates want that dish, it is necessary to decide the ownership of the dish through rock-paper-scissors.

Today, Uesugi Kai and Hanamaru Hanabi help the children in the class to cook, which can be regarded as the care of the seniors.

At least the kids are having fun.

During this period, one thing deserves attention. Little girls often ask Uesugi Kai to help her cook, while little boys prefer Hanamaru Hanabi.

At a young age, I learned to let my beautiful sister cook for me. It's really a face-seeking society.
