Although Akiba Sakura still has a debt of 950 million that has not been repaid, Kunikida Doppo feels that at her age, she still needs to enjoy the last summer of high school.

Whether it's the seaside or the fireworks display, at this youthful age, she can't always linger in the word "debt", and take a proper look at the outside world to give her tense self a place to relax is equally important.

"If I had to make an excuse, it would be that I don't have a yukata. No, it should be said that I have a yukata, but it was from the year before last, so it's probably too small."

Akiba Sakura casually mentioned something, and turned the hamburger meat firmly: "Mr. Dubu, the truth is, I really don't want to go out. If possible, please let me stay in the air-conditioned room this summer vacation."

"..."

Yukata doesn't matter, the latter reason is really...

Looking up, he glanced at the air conditioner in the living room and the small fan next to the kitchen countertop. Kunikida Doppo knew that Akiba Sakura was afraid of the heat. It was also very interesting to see her look like she wanted to wrap up in a quilt in the air-conditioned room. Helpless: "But you can't stay in the air-conditioned room all the time."

"Mr. Dubu, I'm not like you. My life was given by Willis Carrier."

From the bottom of her heart, she lightly pressed the hamburger meat on the frying pan with the wooden spatula in her hand. When she heard the crisp "beep" sound and the sound of the wooden door being pulled open, Akiba Sakura's face fell instantly: "Mr. Dubu, since That day when you were listening to TV with your eyes closed on the sofa, I wanted to say, what kind of personality do you have like an old man."

"Turning on the air conditioner for too long is not good for your health, you need to ventilate."

"……Yes Yes Yes."

Looking at the summer scenery in the courtyard and the warm wind blowing towards our face, feeling the cool wind left by the air conditioner, Qiu Ye Sakura sat down sullenly, propped his chin and was very dissatisfied: "You seem to be forcing the family The **** father who squats his daughter to go out."

"I'm not that old."

"Hmph, then let me go."

"..."

It was rare that she didn't follow the rules of eating without words. Akiba Sakura cut off a piece of hamburger meat with the fork in her hand and put it in her mouth, watching Kunikida Doppo speak slowly: "Mr. Doppo, lend me a can of beer in the refrigerator, I've been curious for a long time."

"You are underage, you cannot drink."

"Then I don't want to go out."

Looking into Akiba Sakura's eyes, Kunikida Doppo looked at her almost refusing to give in an inch and couldn't help but rubbed his temples: "But you are not old enough."

"Then I don't have the idea of ​​'ah, fireworks festival, I really want to go' at my age."

Hearing Akiba Sakura's almost expressive and artificial voice squeezing her throat, Kunikida Doppo felt goose bumps on his back.Seeing her sniggering, the blond young man pushed his glasses and still had a strict expression: "You are not old enough to drink."

"It's at home, no one will know if you don't tell me, Dana-san~"

"..."

Hearing the coquettish tone behind him, Kunikida Doppo took a deep look at the girl in front of him, put down the knife and fork and stood up at the same time: "Just this time, and don't speak like that in the future."

"Why? Because Dana-san is shy? Ah, then change to the one I'm used to, Master? Well, it's okay, right?"

So he shouldn't have agreed to her continuing to work at Maid Latte.

Kunikida Doppo paused for a glance after opening the freezer, turned his head to look at the opened can of beer in the trash can, and his face darkened instantly: "Sakura."

"Hmm what?"

"Have you ever drunk it?"

"Stealing? Ah, that can is for me to make hamburger meat. I remember I sent you a message and you agreed, Mr. Dubu."

It seems true, today's hamburger meat does have a faint fragrance of malt.So it's because of cooking that I'm curious.

After opening the mouth of the soda can, he took a disposable cup and just poured Akiba Sakura, watching her collapsed expression, Kunikida Doppo did not waver: "It is already illegal to drink it for you, at most it is only this little. "

"Ah, Japan is such a strange country. I really want to have no age limit for drinking like Miss Qiaomei."

Thinking of Lin Qiaomei's confusion about how Japanese adults can get married at the age of 20, and the age limit for drinking, Akiba Sakura sighed.That's great, she also wants to go to China to drink the fruit wine made by Lin Qiaomei.

"It's the same even if you go to other countries, and the United States is 21 years old, one year behind Japan."

"Oh……"

Shaking the paper cup in her hand, Akiba Sakura stared at the beer in the cup for a while before expressing her opinion: "It looks a bit like ginger ale."

"Well, I have to go out after drinking."

"I'm really not a dead house like Bilushi, it's just that I don't want to go out except to work in Maid Latte in summer!"

A little anxiously picked up the cup, she didn't really want to stay at home, if there was a cover outside to cover Yokohama and send air-conditioning air inside, she would be happy to run outside every day.

Lifting the cup in his hand, he poured the little beer that could only be tasted into his mouth. At the moment of entering the mouth, Akiba Sakura tasted the bitter taste and the feeling of being full of bubbles. Squirt out.

What is this!

Reluctantly swallowed the beer, even though the alcohol concentration was not high, but the slightly hot aftertaste and the beer that had no taste at all other than a little bit of bitterness were simply...

"I heard a theory a long time ago that if you lightly touch each other with a flame in childhood, the child will have a subconscious memory because of the heat and pain of the flame and will no longer approach the flame-like substance."

Kunikida Doppo looked at Akiba Sakura who had her eyes closed tightly as if she was being tortured, stood up slowly, bent down, put away the two people's dinner plates, stuffed them into the dishwasher in the kitchen, and poured her a glass The tea was put aside: "So, how do you feel?"

"Will never touch again in this life!"

I don't know why there is more moisture in the eyes, Akiba Sakura put the cup in her hand aside, and even felt her head start to hurt: "Absolutely, I will never touch a beer can in my life except for cooking No! It should be said that I will never touch any alcohol again."

"puff."

"Mr. Dubu, you are still laughing."

"I remember that you strongly demanded it yourself."

After giving her two tissues, Kunikida Doppo couldn't hold back his smile as he watched her wiping her eyes and nose fiercely: "Do you still want to drink?"

"No! It's hard to understand why you like Mr. Dubu."

"Well, maybe you'll get used to it after two years."

"Absolutely not. My current dream drinks are only Coke, Sprite, and plain water."

Throwing the paper towels firmly into the trash can, Akiba Sakura stood up and cleared the dining table, then looked up, watching Kunikida Doppo sitting on the corridor in the courtyard, and finally served the brewed tea beside him: "However, I'm still a little sorry."

"Ok?"

"I was a little bit willful just now."

Or, is it because you know that he will not reject you, so you have a feeling of being pampered and proud?Putting the teacup by Kunikida Doppo's hand, Akiba Sakura held the tray and looked at the beer can that Kunikida had only slightly poured out and tilted her head: "It's a waste of things."

"nor."

"Hmm...well, for the Fireworks Festival, it shouldn't matter if you don't wear a yukata, right?"

Looking sideways at the girl who lowered her head, Kunikida Doppo put the beer can aside, looked at the sunset in the sky and asked, "Why don't you want to go?"

"I went there with my classmates before. I didn't wear a yukata and I didn't buy or play anything. I was rejected."

Obviously, I don't want to go into too much detail. After a brief sentence or two, Akiba Sakura set her sights on the cherry tree, and looked at its green leaves. It asks for money. The fireworks are too loud, and they don’t look good.”

"Money, that's a real problem."

"Yes, it's a big problem. Later, my mother gave me a bathrobe and I didn't have a chance to show her, let alone go to that kind of place."

"If I were still a teacher, I would definitely think you were a big problem."

Hearing Kunikida Doppo's voice and thinking about the "You guys really make me feel uncomfortable" every time the head of his class sees himself, Akiba Sakura burst out laughing: "If Mr. Doppo is still a teacher, I will definitely I don't want to go to my mother's middle school if I don't meet me. Oh, except for meeting me in the air, that doesn't count."

Met across the air means "the person who made the paper: Kunikida Doppo"?

Looking down at the girl sitting next to him, who was not far away or close, Kunikida Doppo laughed: "Then come with me to the firework festival this time, I won't laugh at you."

"Well, speaking of it, it seems that Kyoka will go with the detective agency too, won't Mr. Doppo join them?"

"Detective agency? In this case, Naomi will definitely stick to Tanizaki, and Dazai doesn't know where it will be. The president will almost never miss such an occasion, and Kyoka will probably be with Atsushi..."

"That's why you came to me without someone? Oh, I'm so ashamed."

"No, I wanted to go with you."

"..."

Originally, I wanted to be together.

It seemed that at this moment the wind was blowing a lot, the warm summer wind slowly blowing through the leaves, the rustling sound and the occasional birdsong nearby made Akiba Sakura burst out laughing.

"That's really nice."

It's been a long time since she dared to look directly into Kunikida Doppo's eyes, and every time she was afraid that he would find out that she looked at him differently from others.But this time, she didn't seem to worry about such things anymore.

As for whether he really just regards himself as a student who needs to be taken care of, or whether he also faintly has emotions similar to hers, it is no longer important.

It may be a bit despicable, but according to Akiba Sakura and Kunikida Doppo's names on a resident form, the fact that they live under the same roof, and the "marriage" status known to his colleagues and his good friend store manager, Akiha Ye Ying felt that it was not impossible for her to look forward to it.

"Then Mr. Dubu, let me try the bathrobe that my mother gave me. I have never worn it for others, and I don't know if it is small."

She pressed the tea tray to her chest, put her hands on her knees and turned her head down sideways, looking at him in the warm yellow light of the setting sun as if she wanted to lean on her arms, with a look on her face that might have been from drinking some beer just now Some blush, it may also be the refraction of the light, his face is in the slightly bent eyes.

"Ah."

As if just responding casually, Kunikida Doppo turned his head after a long time, looking at Akiba Sakura who had been staring at him, blushing a little: "What's wrong?"

"Hmm... want to see Mr. Dubu more? Can you accept this answer?"

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her smile was different from before: "Actually, I've been thinking since before that it would be great if I could continue like this with Mr. Dubu."

"Well, yes."

"Is it really possible?"

"..."

The girl who didn't get an answer looked away, pretending not to see Kunikida Doppo's ears that seemed to be reddish.She watched the daylilies swaying in the garden, and the smile on her face gradually became brighter.

"Then I will look forward to this year's Fireworks Conference."
