Chapter 39

"This is Don Quijote..."

"This ramen shop is quite famous..."

"This shop is specifically for ripping off tourists; second-hand figures are one-third more expensive."

"The posters plastered all over this pillar are for Genshin Impact, which is very popular in the country recently. It seems there will be a Genshin Impact cosplay exhibition in a while."

Kitakami Yoru took Kato Megumi for a stroll and stopped at a street corner.

There was a signpost and a notice board here.

Actually, Kitakami Yoru didn't say everything.

There wasn't just a cosplay exhibition, but also a summer manga exhibition, with R16 and R18 zones.

Honestly, he wanted to go see it.

"Then let's go take a look." Kato Megumi wasn't very interested, but she didn't hate it either.

She saw Kitakami Yoru's inner thoughts and said.

"Okay." Kitakami Yoru nodded.

The two rested for a while and walked straight over.

The cosplay exhibition was outdoors, and anyone could come.

There were quite a few people, and Kitakami Yoru was about to take Kato Megumi inside to take a look.

Suddenly, his footsteps stopped.

In the crowd not far away, a conspicuous golden treasure chest was walking toward him.

"Who is it?"

"Kasumigaoka Utaha? Shinomiya Kaguya? Or someone else I don't know?"

Kitakami Yoru was slightly dazed, thinking suspiciously in his heart, and squeezed into the crowd.

Taking Kato Megumi with him, constantly rubbing shoulders with passersby, he finally got close to the owner of the golden treasure chest.

She was dressed relatively simply and plainly, wearing a white baseball cap, her fair skin exposed to the sunlight.

"Eriri?"

"She likes 2D too?"

Kitakami Yoru stopped and watched Eriri walk toward him.

Eriri also discovered Kitakami Yoru.

But she had no time or mood to pay attention to others right now.

She just wanted to find her lost backpack.

"It's all Lun-ya's fault for making me angry, damn it, it's all his fault!"

"I don't know if he helped me find it yet; I'm finished!"

Eriri's eyes were scanning around.

Looking at every passerby and the ground, wanting to find her lost backpack.

A backpack wasn't important to her.

Inside the backpack was a draft sketchbook she had used a lot as Kashiwagi Eri.

That was what was important.

Yesterday, Eriri went to her good sister Izumi Sagiri's house to exchange ideas on how to improve her drawing and create better works, so she brought her draft sketchbook.

Otherwise, it was usually kept at home.

This sketchbook was Eriri's source of inspiration, irreplaceable and very important to her.

Most importantly.

She didn't remember if she had scribbled any text that would expose her identity in the sketchbook.

She remembered she hadn't, and if she had, she had erased it.

However, the draft sketchbook was missing, and she wasn't sure anymore.

"What if someone I know picks up the sketchbook, finds out my identity, and uses it to threaten me?"

"If people in school find out I'm a doujin artist, I'm finished, I'm dead!"

"Maybe I'll be expelled from Shuchiin, and my father is a diplomat; isn't this a huge scandal?..."

Eriri didn't dare to imagine the terrifying consequences.

"Is she looking for someone?"

Kitakami Yoru turned his head in surprise, watching Eriri disappear into the crowd.

Didn't this arrogant, noble young lady always look down her nose at him whenever she saw him?

Beside him, Kato Megumi's gaze swept suspiciously over Eriri and Kitakami Yoru.

"Let's continue, Kato-san." Kitakami Yoru took Kato Megumi and strolled around the cosplay exhibition again.

From afar, he saw a classmate from Shuchiin, a blonde gal who seemed to be named Kitagawa, frantically taking pictures of cosplayers and even stepping on Kitakami Yoru's foot.

In the afternoon, it was around three o'clock.

Kitakami Yoru and Kato Megumi were standing in front of a vending machine, each holding a drink in their hands.

"How do you feel today?" Kitakami Yoru looked at Kato Megumi and asked.

"Not bad, I had a lot of fun going out." Kato Megumi nodded directly.

"Then let's go out and play together next time." Kitakami Yoru felt a huge weight off his heart.

Just as the two were about to leave, while Aki Tomoya was still helping Eriri look for her lost backpack, he saw Kitakami Yoru.

He suddenly remembered that on Friday afternoon, Kasumigaoka Utaha-senpai had asked him for help about being followed.

And in front of him was the culprit who had stolen Kasumigaoka Utaha's stockings and panties.

Therefore.

He hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly turned back and blocked Kitakami Yoru and Kato Megumi's path.

"You are Kitakami Yoru, the person who stole Utaha-senpai's personal items?" Aki Tomoya adjusted his glasses and said to the large-bodied Kitakami Yoru.

He wouldn't have any good feelings for someone who hurt Utaha-senpai, and he wasn't afraid of Kitakami Yoru being impulsive.

Because the school couldn't withstand many students questioning why the school administration didn't punish Kitakami Yoru, so they had already responded.

Everyone knew the two conditions Kitakami Yoru had to follow.

If Kitakami Yoru dared to hit him, he would definitely be expelled.

Aki Tomoya had also heard from others that Kitakami Yoru was very easy to bully and very cowardly.

37: Hayasaka Ai's Punishment Game

Looking at the boy with black-rimmed glasses he didn't recognize at all in front of him.

Kitakami Yoru was stunned for a while.

He directly treated Aki Tomoya as one of Kasumigaoka Utaha's admirers who had come to find trouble with him.

"I am Kitakami Yoru, do you have something to do?" Kitakami Yoru replied afterward.

"Are you following Utaha-senpai?" Aki Tomoya swallowed his saliva; actually, he was also a bit nervous.

Kitakami Yoru showed a confused expression; at this moment, it was as if the air had gone quiet.

I'm following Kasumigaoka Utaha?

What kind of situation is this again?

Kitakami Yoru's mind went blank, looking at the strange Aki Tomoya in front of him with great confusion.

"Anyway, watch yourself." Aki Tomoya was just asking tentatively.

At the time, Kasumigaoka Utaha had only told him that it might have been Kitakami Yoru.

He still had to help Eriri find her backpack.

Then, Aki Tomoya walked away quickly.

He didn't even look at Kato Megumi, who was walking with Kitakami Yoru.

"Inexplicable person, not polite at all."

"And Kasumigaoka Utaha, being followed?"

Kitakami Yoru came back to his senses at this time, his expression strange.

"His name is Aki Tomoya." Kato Megumi's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Does Kato-san know him?" Kitakami Yoru looked at Kato Megumi curiously.

"Yes, we are in the same class, but I don't know him well." Kato Megumi's expression returned to calm. ===== CHAPTER 41 =====
