In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 38
Seeing that Kai Uesugi had successfully diverted her thoughts, he stopped talking and continued to read his own book, doing whatever she wanted.

Ayaka Riei knows what Hanamaru Hanabi thinks about him, and she is afraid that she will give it for nothing if she is not careful:

"Huahuo, did that guy Uesugi do anything strange to you yesterday? If so, you must call the police. It's best to tell your father directly."

"Uesugi-kun is not that kind of person." Hanamaru's fiery purple eyes flickered under the flickering light, clear and transparent.

"He is," Ayaka Riei said angrily, "he liked to run around with that Goto guy last semester."

"."

Kai Uesugi is grateful that Hanabi has been thinking of him, but Riei Ayaka seems to have misunderstood him.

She hates Goto, he knows it.

But why would he be implicated?
He looked across at the office worker uncle sleeping on his back, the white-collar lady looking down at her mobile phone, the bespectacled high school student holding a mobile phone playing games, the middle-aged woman who just came home from get off work, and the little yellow hat with a lollipop hanging from the corner of her mouth.
Compared with them, what is special about you?

"Is there any misunderstanding during this period?" Uesugi Kai asked.

"No misunderstanding,"

After answering, Ayaka Riei whispered a few whispers to Hanamaru Hanabi beside her.

Tell Huahuo that the more he likes Uesugi, the more careful he should be. Recently, his reputation is very bad among girls.

Hanamaru Hanabi suddenly glanced at Uesugi Kai, then turned her head and shook her head, whispering:

"No, no, Uesugi-kun didn't do such a thing."

"Anyway, just be careful,"

Turning around, Ayaka Riei crossed her arms and glanced at Kai Uesugi.

She knows that Hanabi likes Uesugi Kai, but she must be careful to be on the safe side.

"I"

Hanamaru Hanabi lowered her head, she didn't know how to explain Uesugi Kai, after all, Ayaka Riei was right about those things.

He also confessed to himself, and he agreed.

Although I don't know what happened at that time.

When she went home that night, lying on the bed, she remembered the scene where she smiled and agreed to Uesugi Kai's request for a relationship, shyly covered her face tightly with the quilt, shrunk her body tightly, and her little heart thumped Plopping.

Red face.

While eating, Mrs. Hanamaru noticed something strange, so she took the opportunity to ask.

"me."

Hanamaru Hanabi stammered, her slender fingers intertwined, but after a moment of pondering, she still said to Ayaka Liying:

"Hanabi believes what you say, Liying-chan, but Hanabi also believes that Uesugi-kun is not such a person"

Ayaka Riei suddenly covered her forehead and shook it again and again, looking extremely sad:

"Huahuo, you are hopeless."

After getting off the Tozai Line at Waseda Station, Kai Uesugi and Hanamaru Hanabi embarked on the final journey home.

On the overpass, Uesugi Kai looked at the fireworks under the lights and said:

"Thank you."

"Why did Uesugi-kun say thank you to Hanabi?" Hanamaru Hanabi looked over with doubts in her purple eyes.

Uesugi Kai smiled: "Thank you Hana Huo for trusting me so much."

It's been a long time since Kai Uesugi called him so affectionately, and Hanamaru Hanabi didn't react for a while.

She turned her head and said in a weak voice:
"Hanabi has always believed in Uesugi-kun. Li Ying-chan just because of some things in the past, became a little bit hostile to boys who approach girls. Sometimes she becomes very sensitive, but this is Li Ying-chan's secret, I can't tell Uesugi You listen."

"Liying-chan, she seems to have a lot of misunderstandings about Uesugi-kun, and Hanabi will help Uesugi-kun explain it slowly."

"It's ok."

Uesugi Kai didn't mind Ayaka Riei, after all, she was used to it.

"Did I tell you about dating too early?"

Hanamaru Hanabi looked at Kai Uesugi with curious eyes, and whispered, "Is Uesugi-kun still minding this matter?"

Although the 15-year-old Hanamaru Hanabi is already a serious high school girl, there are still childish outlines on her face.

"There are some," he replied.

"Is it because of Hanabi's age?"

"Ah."

Hanamaru Hanabi was silent for a moment, and the two walked down the familiar overpass. The lights were still shining, illuminating the narrow street.

"Sometimes Hanabi really thinks that Uesugi-kun is not mature like a child of this age group. Since childhood, Hanabi has never seen Uesugi-kun cry."

never cried
Uesugi Kai couldn't laugh or cry at such a lovely thought, and said:

"Huahuo, in your eyes, is it a sign of maturity that you have never cried in front of you?"

"Eh?!"

Hanamaru Hanabi looked at him curiously, with a light of surprise in his eyes, "Did Uesugi-kun cry secretly in the corner?"

"No."

"Hey" the light of surprise in her pupils gradually disappeared, and slowly turned into an emotion called loss, "I thought Uesugi-kun was like everyone else, secretly hiding in the toilet and crying."

Kai Uesugi can feel the emotions of Hanabi beside her. What happened to her expectant eyes just now? Is it because she hopes to find something in common with me when I was a child?

"But I still remember the way Hanabi hid behind me crying." Uesugi Kai showed a natural smile at her.

"I"

Hanamaru Hanabi saw the smile on Kai Uesugi's face, and immediately remembered.

When she was playing in the park when she was a child, she was chased and barked by a Shiba Inu that was not on a leash. The grinning appearance made her cry out of fear, and she quickly ran to hide behind the small Uesugi Kai, and kept shouting Brother, brother.

Although the Shiba Inu was finally taken back by its owner, she was afraid to go to the park for a month because of that incident, because her mind was full of the Shiba Inu baring its teeth.

Now, she looked at Uesugi Kai who was still taller than her, but she was embarrassed to hide behind him again.

"."

"Why does Uesugi-kun still remember this?"

"Because it's cute," Uesugi Kai said with a smile, "That day was the day when our two families went out for dinner together. I believe my aunt and the others must remember that little girl who cried like a tabby cat and hid behind me, sobbing."

Hanamaru Hanabi pursed her soft lips, then buried her head down again, not daring to say anything more to him.
