I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 341 I’ve never kissed you before!
The morning light shone through the gauze curtains, casting tiny spots of light on the corridor floor. The moment Dong Yeyu pushed open the wooden door, the wind brought the aroma of fried bacon into his nose.

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami lowered his eyes to look at his own shadow cast on the old mosaic floor tiles in the corridor, his eyelashes casting a dark blue arc of light on his eyelids.

She reached out and tucked her silver-gray hair behind her ears, and the pale blue veins on the side of her neck were faintly visible in the morning light.

"Practice?"

"Yeah." She nodded, put her hands behind her back, and her fingertips unconsciously stroked the edge of her cuffs.

Higashino Yu knew that this was just an excuse, but he didn't want to push it too hard. Perhaps giving both sides some time would result in a better outcome.

Turning around, the white shirt made a rustling sound. The glass windows at the end of the corridor refracted the morning sun into countless jumping gold foils, flowing on the young man's tied black hair.

"Let's go eat. Uncle Beidou gets up early every day to prepare breakfast." Dongye Yu said and went downstairs.

After he left, Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami sighed softly and stopped in front of the mirror in the bathroom. The mirror was covered with years of mist, vaguely reflecting the girl's porcelain-white face.

She stretched out her hand and wiped a crescent-shaped mark on the glass. The moment her knuckles touched the reflection in the mirror, condensed water droplets meandered down under the force of gravity, like a tear mark that had not dried yet.

Asumi Sanae was curious about what was in the mirror, so she stretched her neck to take a look, only to see a finger mark drawn across the mirror.

"Ajing always has this kind of personality and will miss a lot of things." Ruri's childish voice sounded in Asumi Sanae's mind.

"I think you are not qualified to lecture Jing on the topic of personality."

Asumi Sanae complained in her heart.

Liuli was silent for two seconds.

"Yeah, it's because of my personality that I ended up like this. But if I had to do it again, I would still try to contact the monsters. What if I met Yu in advance?"

Asu saw Sanae sneer and speak harshly and mercilessly.

"Oh, you wish. Ayu is an excellent student. She wouldn't want to get to know a poor student like my sister."

"I heard that smart people don't like their partners to be too smart. I don't like studying, so maybe I'm more suitable for Yu."

"impossible."

"why?"

"He has a misogyny."

Liuli was stunned for a second, then reacted, "Are you calling me an idiot?"

"I didn't say that."

Asumi saw Sanae muttering to herself, and then she didn't hear Ruri's voice again.

But she was not worried - when her sister was a child, she would be silent and sulky when she was angry. At this time, she didn't need to pay attention to her, and she would recover on her own after a while.

And she was still upset about what happened last night. How dare her sister secretly use her body to kiss him?
The girl gritted her teeth and said, "I've never kissed you before!"

The restaurant is in the lobby on the first floor - it not only serves as an activity room and auditorium, but also has several dining tables.

However, since many children from the orphanage were adopted, the children had to share two dining tables. Dean Miyazaki, Teacher Minami Yuko, Aunt Ogino and others ate at another table.

At this time, the children had probably just woken up and were still washing up. Some of them even stayed in bed and needed Aunt Ogino to urge them one by one.

Thus, the quiet morning became a little messy and noisy, which was the liveliness unique to Sunshine Garden.

The scene in the restaurant in the morning was not much different from what I remembered. The old ceiling fan rotated slowly overhead, stirring the caramelized aroma of the fried eggs and the mellow taste of the milk into a warm vortex.

Hokuto Seiji's rough knuckles were holding a stainless steel clip, and he was placing golden fried eggs one by one on the blue and white striped plate. When Nan Xizi lowered her head to adjust her napkin, a strand of silver in her black hair glowed with a gentle pearl color in the morning light.

The only difference is that time has gone back for them, and they have returned to the way they remembered many years ago.

Rejuvenation is a miracle. Higashino Yu hopes that more such miracles will happen to people he cares about in the future.

"Good morning, Uncle Beidou." Dongye Yu greeted.

Asumi Sanae and Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami bowed slightly.

The two people who were setting the table looked back and saw three people coming down the stairs and walking towards the corridor leading to the lobby. Passing through the morning light sprinkled there, the golden sunlight illuminated the boys and girls who were like pictures, making people almost touch the reality of so-called youth.

There are three people. What will Ayu do?

Nan Xizi was a little curious, but didn't say anything. After all, he had grown up. She just smiled and nodded.

Beidou Xingsi's bronze face was covered with smile lines, and the wrinkles at the end of his eyes were filled with the golden glow of the morning sun: "Oh! Good morning, Ayu!"

"The magical fruit I took yesterday was really effective. I felt like I had endless energy. I didn't feel groggy when I woke up in the morning, and I was in a good mood!"

"This effect will last for many years, and the best days are yet to come."

Higashino Yu smiled and told Asumi Sanae and the others first, asking them to find a seat and sit down while waiting for their meal.

However, they did not do so. Instead, they quietly picked up the plates and helped to set them up.

The table was set in barely two minutes.

Hokuto Seiji held a plate and sighed: "After eating such delicious food, your aunt Yuko and I have always been a little embarrassed. We have nothing to repay you."

"Repay?"

After Dong Yeyu finished setting the plates, he took three plates, put four pieces of bread, two eggs and some bacon on each plate, and poured three glasses of milk.

Then he turned around and looked at the Beidou couple, smiling, "You have already repaid me in advance, starting from the day we first met sixteen years ago."

"However, if you and Teacher Yuko still feel embarrassed, please help us protect Sunshine Garden."

Beidou Xingji and Nan Xizi looked at each other and nodded seriously.

The breakfast in Sunshine Garden is quite simple. There was not even bacon before, and eggs were in limited supply. Now the conditions are much better, which may have something to do with the money I sent back in the past two months.

Higashino Yu handed two of the plates filled with food to Sanae and Hiiragi Kagami.

"Thank you." Jinguji Hiiragi Jing took the plate and thanked him softly.

"I can't eat so much." Asumi Sanae poked the crispy edge of the bacon with a fork, and the oil spots shone with tiny golden light in the sunlight.

When Dong Yeyu leaned closer, she smelled the faint scent of laundry detergent mixed with the unique body temperature of a young boy from his collar.

"You are still in the stage of refining essence into qi." The low voice was hoarse from waking up in the morning, and the warm breath brushed over the strands of hair that stuck up beside her ears.

The girl seemed to feel something like romance at this moment.

But in fact, Dong Yeyu was just persuading him in a normal voice: "Eat more nutritious food. Don't worry, you won't get fat. The conditions in Sunshine Garden are definitely not as good as your home. Please bear with it for now, otherwise your cultivation progress will be delayed."

Is this considered a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?
Asumi Sanae feels that he is a little different today. Is it true that he can't resist the charm of the Moon Witch?
The girl's lips curled up slightly, and she took her plate and sat down at the table with the children.

Just as Higashino Yuya sat down, the footsteps of Yotsuba and the others were heard from the second floor. Some children were crying, probably because they were refused to stay in bed. Higashino Yuya didn't feel strange. Even if humans ate the pear, they could not resist the power of the bed demon.

dong dong dong dong!

The sound came from the stairs, and then a group of children rubbing their sleepy eyes walked towards this side. Imagawa Kashiwagi and Arima Norimune were mixed among them. Yotsuba was holding her sister Mitsuha with her left hand, and holding the dazed-looking Xiaoling with her right hand.

They were the only two children in Sunshine Garden who were mentally handicapped and unable to take care of themselves. Jiao Li made their bodies healthier than normal people and extended their lifespans, but it could not increase their intelligence.

"Onii-san, Onii-san, Uncle Beidou, Teacher Yuko, good morning!"

The group of children greeted each other very politely, and then each found their usual seat and sat down.

"Ayu, good morning. What's delicious?" Arima Zemune yawned and sat on the other side of Higashino Yu in an inelegant posture.

Imagawa Kashiwagi frowned and reminded quietly: "There are children here, be careful."

He was stunned for a moment, then sat up straight immediately when he saw the strange looks from the children around him.

Dean Miyazaki walked into the lobby at a brisk pace, completely different from the old man he looked when we first met yesterday, and greeted everyone with a smile.

After sitting down, he placed his palms on the edge of the wooden table and watched the children crowding the long table like returning chicks. The loose skin at the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.

"Let's eat." He gave the dean's order, and everyone started eating.

Beidou Xingji placed a plate of fried eggs in the middle of the dining table, and the oil stars glowed an attractive color in the morning light.

"Eat as much as you want!" he announced, his hands on his hips.

"Okay!"

The children's cheers startled the sparrows outside the window, and the cool morning breeze blew through the faded window frames.

The bread was wholesale bread, which was just enough to fill the stomach. It was also difficult to make fried eggs. The milk was not bad, and it should be fresh milk delivered by the milkman.

Asu saw Sanae having some difficulty eating this breakfast, which felt much worse than Tomoko's grandmother's breakfast, not to mention the breakfast at home.

I looked at Dong Yeyu with some pity. He had been eating this kind of breakfast for ten years.

Dongye Yu didn't feel anything. Uncle Beidou had tried his best to use his cooking skills to improve the children's lives, but unfortunately, even the best cook could not cook without the rice.

Moreover, compared to the rotten apples in the trash can and the cold and even a little bit fried chicken, the classic combination of bread, fried eggs and milk is already a perfect breakfast.

After breakfast, the sky was bright and the golden sun was shining brightly, but there was still a little chill from last night. Led by Teacher Yuko, the children went to the small garden in front of the courtyard - here were the crops they grew themselves, such as some flowers, vegetables or strawberries.

Arima Norimune and Imagawa Kashiwagi left Sunshine Garden with their cameras, saying they were going to visit Mount Kurama.

Higashino Yu told Dean Miyazaki that he wanted to visit the adopted children, and then prepared to go out with Asumi Sanae.

"Are you really not going together?" Higashino Yu called out to Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami who was about to return to his room.

The girl didn't answer, but just nodded and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Mingjian Sanae hesitated for two seconds, "It seems that Jing is not in a good mood today. Do you have any clues?"

The culprit, Dong Yeyu, quickly shook his head: "I don't know."

The girl moved closer with her hands behind her back. The faint fragrance became slightly stronger. Her ice-blue eyes stared at Dong Ye Yu for two seconds and then she turned around lightly.

"Let's go and see if those children are truly redeemed."

Suburbs of Kyoto,

In the yard of a slightly shabby house, a woman was hanging out to dry freshly washed clothes, and a boy about ten years old was standing next to her.

"Guang, please help me get this," she said, handing over some hangers naturally.

A Guang subconsciously took the clothes hanger, looked at his adoptive mother whom he had just met, and habitually turned back to look at this unfamiliar home.

I have been here for a few weeks now, from the initial nervousness and anticipation to the current sense of peace of mind and accustomedness.

I should consider myself lucky, right?
It’s a pity that I didn’t say goodbye to Dongye Nissan.

A Guang was thinking in his mind, and noticed that his foster mother hammered her waist while hanging clothes to dry, so he took the initiative to step forward and help pick up the clothes to dry.

"Thank you." The woman thanked him gently, then took the clothes and taught him: "There won't be any wrinkles when you hang them out like this."

A Guang studied hard and quickly got the hang of it.

The family that adopted him was not wealthy, but they were two very nice people. A Guang had already regarded this place as his home and wanted to do his best to help them.

After they hung up the clothes together, the woman wiped the sweat from her forehead, took out a thousand-dollar bill from her pocket and stuffed it into the boy's hand.

"this--"

"Keep it and go out and play. Meixia from next door seems to have a crush on Guang. You two can communicate more."

The woman smiled and walked back to the Japanese-style room with the basin in her hand: "I need to rest for a while, too."

The footsteps gradually faded away and she seemed to go upstairs.

A Guang stood in the courtyard. The clothes he had just hung on the clothesline were still dripping with water. The sunlight turned them into dazzling stars, and the reassuring scent of laundry detergent filled the air around him.

Actually, A Guang would rather sit here and daydream for the whole morning.

Want to go out?

He was a little hesitant and thought about it for a long time. In the end, he was afraid that it would make his adoptive mother worry - at least pretend to go out for a walk, and save the money, maybe they would need it in the future.

Thinking of this, he put the money in his pocket, turned around, and saw an exquisite gift handbag placed on the courtyard wall.

He walked over, picked it up and took a look. Inside was the Kamen Rider transformation belt that he had wanted for a long time.

It is an expensive toy.

Who is missing here?
He immediately wanted to find the police, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar figure walking on the street not far away. He was wearing neat trousers and a white shirt that shone brightly in the sun.

A Guang was a little suspicious that he had seen it wrong, until the man turned around and looked at him. The elegance of his profile was something he could never forget at that first glance. He smiled, waved at him and gave him a thumbs up.

The blonde girl following him also turned around subconsciously. She was a beautiful and noble person like an elf, with ice-blue eyes that made people seem to see the endless ocean and the blue sky.

"Dongye Nissan. He's not alone anymore." Guang muttered to himself, sniffed, smiled, grabbed the gift bag tightly, and waved his hand.

in the afternoon,

Higashino Yu stood on the bustling streets of Kyoto, and the several gift bags he was holding in his hands were gone.

"Everyone's destination is good, so I feel relieved. Let's go back."
