Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

The little Honda parked in a neatly planned parking lot.

What appeared in front of the two people was a vast land and a huge group of buildings that would make people think that "the original Tokyo International Exhibition Market was just mediocre."

This is the Roktenma shopping mall that just opened on the outskirts of Saitama City not long ago.

The medieval European style reminds someone of the outlet stores of the past.

The mall is divided into two major areas, the south and the north, and is said to contain more than 200 stores.

Including clothing and groceries, restaurants, movie theaters, amusement parks, karaoke and Starbucks are all opened here. It’s rich in content and you won’t get bored even if you stay there all day. It’s like a city built specifically for shopping.

Saitama Prefecture residents basically come here during holidays. Junior high school students also come here for their dates, college students also come, and families come together. In short, people of all ages are crowded here.

"It's more crowded than expected..." Teacher Hasumi, who was here for the first time, couldn't help but murmured.

"Well, it's probably because of the holiday." Kato Yusuke, who was also visiting this place for the first time, agreed.

It is true as they said, almost two months have passed since the opening, but the huge crowds of people inside still squeeze the building to the limit.

After a rough calculation of the size of the crowd, the figure of at least tens of thousands should be fair.

Although there are already a lot of people during holidays, the crowded scene in front of you still makes people wonder and sigh - "Don't we all have somewhere else to go?"

"What do you need to buy for the sports festival? Teacher."

"Well, let's take a look...it's mainly some fabrics for making new clothes. Where is the student union?"

"All we need is some cardboard and supplies for the layout."

"Hey, isn't this too simple?" Kanoko Hasumi said slightly surprised: "I remember that the previous student union seemed to have prepared a lot of atmosphere props during this period."

Kato Yusuke nodded indifferently, "I know, I saw that there are still a lot of useful things left in the warehouse of the meeting room. Those should be enough for the sports festival."

"It turns out that Kato-san has a habit of saving money."

"Although there is indeed such a consideration, there are also some other reasons."

"Other reasons?" Seeing that he spoke very seriously and formally, Hasumi Kanoko couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Why is it that when our departmental fees are being cut, the student union can be popular and popular there!?" Kato Yusuke deliberately imitated the tone of those sports clubs, and then spread his hands in a self-deprecating manner.

"...At least this kind of thing is something we have to consider. It is said that 40% of my enemies at school hate me because of this."

"Pfft."

Teacher Renjian burst into laughter and said comfortingly: "It's okay, it's okay, at least the teacher likes you very much."

"You don't deny the ratio I proposed, but do you mean that this matter has been spread among teachers? So are there my enemies in the office?"

Finished speaking.

"--Huh?"

The other party winked at him and joked: "Cunning kid. Because there are other teachers involved, I can't tell you in order not to affect your view of them."

"Yeah, that's true."

Kato Yusuke nodded indifferently to this, then raised the corners of his lips and gave a quiet and focused smile: "As you said, as long as Hasumi-sensei likes me, that's fine."

It was like an invisible wind blowing in front of my face.

Hasumi Kanoko was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "In short, these are the things we need to buy. Can we start shopping at the fabric store first? This way, if there are too many things, we can put them in the car."

"Okay, I have no problem." Yusuke responded, and then added: "But before that, it would be better if we get a floor map."

"Well, that's right. Let's go then."

So the two of them walked forward together.

Like a drop of water flowing into the ocean, the disorderly crowd suddenly swallowed them up.

…

In a fabric store.

"Summer wool and polyester velvet, serge and gabardine... It should be enough to buy this much, right?" Kanoko Hasumi turned around and asked.

"Polyester velvet? Serge? Where's Huada?" Kato Yusuke was confused.

The former then pursed his lips and smiled: "Well, that's the name of these fabrics."

Then he explained respectively: "'Summer wool', 'polyester velvet' and 'gabardine' are fabrics used to make clothes. The advantage of the first two is that the texture is light and thin and not easy to wrinkle, while the advantage of the latter is that the lines and texture are clear.

As for "serge", it is used to make scarves and turbans. Is this clear? "

"I see." Yusuke nodded slightly in understanding and said, "But I can only distinguish between cotton and nylon... Speaking of which, why does the teacher know this?"

"——Well, well...if I have to say, this is probably a habit I developed in college."

Hasumi-sensei scratched his cheek with a rare embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "At that time, I read a lot of miscellaneous books in order to exercise my memory. Later, I accidentally became like this and spoke out when I heard related topics. Sorry. Did it bother you?"

"Why?"

"Maybe the other person didn't actually want to hear it, and ended up being told a lot of things by me. Wouldn't that be a bit annoying?"

Kato Yusuke couldn't help but take a look.

"Although I can only represent myself."

He considered his words carefully and said: "But I think it's good as it is now, and it won't cause any boredom. It's better to say that it feels surprisingly reliable."

"Unexpectedly...reliable?" The other party tilted his head slightly as if he was surprised by this, and then showed a dumbfounded expression, and said helplessly: "Thank you for the compliment, Kato-san, but usually at this time Would it be better to remove the word "accidentally"? "

So Yusuke thought for a while and said: "So, it is both simple and reliable?"

Hasumi Kanoko instantly recalled the immature side she had shown in front of him, couldn't help but blush slightly with shame, and looked at him angrily.

Then he flicked his forehead with his crooked fingers and said, "Don't tease the teacher, only the word "reliable" is needed here.

Kato Yusuke smiled, but did not argue with him. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Speaking of university, is the teacher a graduate of Seigaku?"

"Huh--!?"

Teacher Hasumi blinked twice quickly and asked: "Although this is the case, why do you know?"

Facing her surprised and curious look, Yusuke smiled and said, "I just think someone as good-looking as the teacher should come from there, right?"

"——!"

Hasashi Kanoko's eyes moved, and then she looked away with a "Hmm..." and hesitated for a moment: "... Anyway, I'll just buy this much fabric for now. Can Kato-kun get it?"

Looking at the six rolls of cloth of different colors and nearly one meter long in front of him, Kato Yusuke smiled and said, "No problem."

"Then let's go back to the car and put some things away, and then we'll go to the stationery store. Do you think that's okay?"

"good."

The two came to the cashier to pay.

Another wave of people also arrived here at almost the same time.
