Chapter 139

Half an hour later.

Kitakami Yoru walked out and bought a bottle of black coffee at a nearby vending machine.

Took a sip and narrowed his eyes.

The sun was still fierce today, and the temperature hovered around 30 degrees.

During this time, the customer traffic in Akihabara didn't drop significantly.

He took off his baseball cap, pulled up his hair to dissipate heat, and walked around casually while drinking coffee.

It wasn't that he was deliberately skipping work.

Being here was the same as sitting idly in the cafe.

If the cafe were busy, he would definitely rush back without stopping.

"Sumimasen..."

On the road, there were cute maids in black and white maid outfits handing out flyers to pedestrians.

Maid cafes aren't cheap.

An ordinary omelet rice is more than three times the price of a small shop outside, and a cup of coffee costs several thousand yen.

If one person goes in, they have to cough up at least six or seven thousand yen or more.

If you meet a black-hearted one, they specialize in fooling tourists.

Heh...

"Sorry, I don't need it..."

Kitakami Yoru dodged sensitively and quickened his pace.

"Ah~"

This maid looked okay; she didn't get any business and pouted at Kitakami Yoru, who was running away.

"It's true, such a tall and handsome guy definitely doesn't lack a girlfriend; he's not the target customer for the cafe."

"Compared to disguising yourself and serving a disgusting, ugly, dead-fat otaku, it's happier to serve a handsome guy..."

The flyer-handing maid's unpleasant look flashed by, and she searched for tourists or dead-fat otaku to be slaughtered with burning eyes again.

"How strange, is my hair too long, or is my clothing a bit off? Why is everyone looking at me..."

Kitakami Yoru walked all the way to the well-known Radio Kaikan not far from Akihabara Station, stopped, and threw his trash into a rare trash can.

The yellow sign was very eye-catching.

There was no need to go in; Kitakami Yoru stayed for a while and left Akihabara.

Along the way.

Overwhelming advertisements, Genshin Impact occupied one corner, and he could meet cosplayers walking by from time to time.

When leaving.

Kitakami Yoru also saw Kitagawa Marin, whom he had met by chance a long time ago, and a long-legged girl with a bit of a delinquent temperament from school, wearing cosplay as models for a shoot in front of Akihabara Station.

Kitagawa Marin had stepped on Kitakami Yoru's foot, so he remembered it very clearly.

The other one seemed to be named Kawasaki...

Something like that, right?

She should also be a classmate in the same grade.

After watching for a while, Kitakami Yoru left Akihabara and returned to the cafe.

Until the afternoon, when it was almost time to get off work.

The owner watched a pickup truck deliver two large boxes of light novels, magazines, and manga.

Yuigahama Kaho paid the bill.

Buying 150,000 worth at once was already a big deal.

Two full large boxes, Kitakami Yoru finished counting and pushed them in with the owner.

It is estimated that the work for tomorrow or the day after will be waiting for the bookshelf to be delivered and putting the light novels and manga on the shelf.

Work ended.

Returned home, Kitakami Yoru lay on the sofa and rummaged through that high-end art book from before.

Opened his phone, comparing the art style while looking for the owner of the art book.

If he knew that the owner of this art book was Eriri...

After searching for a while, Kitakami Yoru irritably put away the high-end art book and took out the well-preserved travel ticket.

"It expires at the end of this month; who should I go with?"

Kitakami Yoru's first choice was Gabriel, but Gabriel hadn't returned.

The second choice was Kato Megumi; they had been messaging each other occasionally recently.

Kitakami Yoru had never sent an invitation.

One man and one woman, for two, out of town, seaside tourism...

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a date between a couple.

Kitakami Yoru didn't want Kato Megumi to misunderstand him.

Time passed quietly, in a flash.

Mid-August, less than half a month until school starts.

Morning exercise ended.

Kitakami Yoru used a can of cat food to coax San-san into the cat bag.

"Don't move around, be good, I'll give you the remaining half can of cat food when I get back."

Exhorting San-san in the transparent cat bag, Kitakami Yoru carried San-san and headed to the pet clinic.

He needed to get vaccinations, do a full-body deworming, and it would be best to give it a bath.

San-san was basically very obedient, but it was afraid of water.

Every time, Kitakami Yoru needed to hold it down to give it a bath.

"Meow meow—"

San-san in the cat bag cried out softly.

Kitakami Yoru's weight was already at the slightly chubby line.

The uncoordinated proportions of his body and his body fat percentage were also slowly decreasing...

To become like this in a short period of time, for a normal person, it would be absolutely impossible!

Taking San-san, he headed to the pet clinic.

"I wonder if Yukinoshita is there?"

Kitakami Yoru arrived in front of the familiar shop door, pushed the door, and walked in.

Sitting at the front desk, Yukinoshita Yukino was fiddling with a golden lucky cat.

"Yukinoshita-san."

Kitakami Yoru spoke first; after losing weight, his voice had changed significantly, developing toward a tingling, numb tone.

"Who are you?"

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned, looking at Kitakami Yoru, whose hair covered half his face, with a face full of doubt.

"I'm Kitakami Yoru; I'm here for San-san to get a booster shot and deworming, and by the way, give it a bath."

Kitakami Yoru sighed; he knew this would be the result.

After speaking, without waiting for Yukinoshita Yukino to speak, he opened the cat bag and let San-san out.

"Meow woo meow~"

San-san arrived in a strange environment and leaned against Kitakami Yoru's leg defensively; the air was filled with the scent of its own kind.

"You..."

"You lost weight so fast!"

Yukinoshita Yukino's shocked reaction was completely within his expectations.

"Fast to gain, fast to lose."

Kitakami Yoru sighed slightly; fortunately, the speed at which he lost weight wasn't shocking.

"I couldn't recognize you at all."

Yukinoshita Yukino paused for a long time, staring at Kitakami Yoru, as if she wanted to carve his brand-new image into her mind.

But immediately, Yukinoshita Yukino, who had accepted this fact, put her attention on San-san.
