Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Cherry blossom slope.

Since it was almost time for class, there were relatively few students from the private Xiujin Private School.

Walking down the street, Shiro Shiro was carrying a bag containing some souvenirs he planned to give to Chitanda Mirai and the others.

In addition, there is some sugar in it.

He planned to distribute them to some students in the class.

After all, he's not short of money now, so it's fine to do him a favor, and he might need to trouble his classmates in the future.

The cherry blossoms still sway on the long slope in April.

Each cherry blossom has five delicate petals, pink and white, like a young girl's cheek, shy and beautiful.

As the breeze blew, they began to drift down slowly.

Cherry blossoms danced lightly in the air, like pink snowflakes, fluttering down to the ground.

Although quite a few days have passed since the start of the school term.

But the cherry blossoms are still in full bloom, and they are even more beautiful than before.

Moreover, the weather is great today, and it looks like it won't rain.

I imagine it would be beautiful to see the cherry blossoms at night.

Unfortunately, Chitanda Mirai needs to go see a doctor.

Shiro Shiro still hoped that she could go to the doctor for a check-up before making any decisions.

As for cherry blossom viewing, it doesn't matter if it's postponed by a day or two.

Just as he was pondering this.

Suddenly I felt someone tugging at my clothes from behind.

Looking back, Shiro Shiro realized it was Shiina Shoko.

"Good morning, Kamishiro-kun." After greeting him, she still had a timid expression, her head almost touching her back.

Shinobu asked in confusion, "Shiina-san, why are you so late today?"

When Shiina Shoko heard him call her Shiina-san, she immediately became unhappy, tears welling up in her eyes. She lowered her head and stammered, "Shoko...didn't you promise to call me Shoko?"

"That's right." Shinobu Shiro was a little helpless. He wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was true. After all, he had promised them, and it would be a bit too formal to call Shiina-san now. He apologized and said, "Sorry, Shoko, I was used to calling her that before."

Upon hearing this, Shiina Shoko's aggrieved face, hidden beneath her long bangs, immediately lit up with joy.

But fearing that Bai Feng would find out she was happy, she could only press her face even closer to his back and then explain the question from earlier.

"There are too many people on my way to school, so I thought I'd come at the right time. That way I won't encounter too many people on my way to school."

Shiro Shiro chuckled. He knew that Shiina Shoko was socially awkward, so his actions were indeed understandable.

He won't say anything about it.

After all, it's already quite good that Shiina Shoko, who usually doesn't come to school, is willing to come.

Asking her for too much would be pushing her too hard.

"And you, Kamishiro-kun? Why are you so late?" Shiina Shoko muttered, head down. "You always come very early."

Kamidai Bai Feng explained:

"I went back to the store to take care of some things."

"That's why it's late."

Upon hearing that it was about the shop, Shiina Shoko immediately felt relieved and asked curiously:

"So you'll be coming this late every time from now on?"

Kamishiro Shirofumi pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:

"That should be it."

After learning that Bai Feng usually arrived at this time, Shiina Shoko suddenly started grinning foolishly, as if she had thought of something.

Shiro Kaede was used to her being like this and didn't complain. However, she suddenly remembered that she had brought her a souvenir, so she took it out and handed it to her: "I bought this when I went to Osaka yesterday. Please accept it."

"Eh? This is for me?" Shiina Shoko accepted it with a somewhat flattered expression, then looked at Bai Feng expectantly, "Is this the only one for me?"

Shiro Shiro slapped his forehead and quickly took out another batch of souvenirs and handed them to her: "I almost forgot about Maejima Rika's share if you hadn't mentioned it. Since we just happened to run into you, could you give it to her for me?"

"Oh," Shiina Shoko pouted unhappily as she took it from her hand.

Subsequently.

After changing into his indoor shoes, Shiro Kaede arrived at the entrance of Class 1-A.

Before entering the classroom, he said to Shiina Shoko:

"Then remember to come find me after school."

"I'll go to the store with you then."

"Let's go to class now."

Upon hearing that she had to go to work in the afternoon, Shiina Shoko suddenly felt dizzy.

"This afternoon... Do I have to go to work this afternoon?"

"It feels...it feels so scary."

"But...but Xiangzi will do his best."

(＠_＠;)

After she finished speaking, she strolled unsteadily toward her classroom.

Seeing this, Shiro Shiro just smiled helplessly, thinking that if she couldn't handle it, she would ask Mizuno Maki to take care of her.

After entering the classroom, he didn't immediately return to his seat, but instead asked Hayasaka Kento to help him distribute the candy.

Everyone in the class was overjoyed to receive candy so early in the morning, and they all thanked Bai Feng profusely.

The girls were even happier, none of them expecting to receive candy from Shiro Shiro.

Although everyone in the class had one, this one was obtained from Bai Feng.

There weren't any girls in the other classes!

That alone is enough to make girls in other classes envious!

Hearing the words of gratitude from his classmates, Shiro Kaede casually waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing to worry about.

Then he sat back down in his seat.

"Good morning, Kamishiro-kun." Chitanda Mirai put down her literature book and greeted him with a smile.

Mizuno Maki turned to look at Bai Feng, a slight ripple appearing on her serene face, and said softly, "Good morning, Kamishiro-kun."

Junko Urahara turned around and looked at him, her eyes fixed on his neck, face and lips, before nodding emphatically and saying, "Good morning, Kamishiro-kun."

Ever since Urahara Junko licked her neck so intensely last time, Shiro Shiro has felt a little strange being looked at by her now.

I used to feel like I was being watched by predators. Now, although I don't feel that way anymore, I have a different, more indescribable feeling.

But I guess I'm just overthinking it.

Shiro Shiro felt that she had reminded her, and thought that such a thing should not happen again.

Chitanda Mirai remembered that Shirakaze said he would show her photos of the trip when he got back, so she looked at Shirakaze with curiosity and anticipation: "Kamishiro-kun, can I see your photos from Universal Studios?"

Maki Mizuno was also very curious about photos of Kamishiro and his family.

Because she hasn't actually seen his family much yet.

Although he knew his sister was in the next class, C.

But the two rarely met.

At most, we'd only meet once by chance.

Because Mizuno Maki didn't know what topics to talk about with Kamishiro Erina, the two of them haven't actually exchanged a single word yet.

If we could have a chance to chat about going to Universal Studios, that would be perfect.

“Sure.” Shiro Shiro didn’t mind at all. He took out his phone from his pocket, unlocked it, opened the photo album, and handed it to Chitanda Mirai.

Chitanda Mirai took the photos and looked at them excitedly.

Mizuno Maki, who was standing nearby, also wanted to watch, but due to her modesty, she didn't go over directly.

I was just thinking of waiting until Chitanda Mirai finished reading it before I spoke up.

at this time.

Shirakaze Kamishiro handed the souvenir from the bag to Maki Mizuno first.

"Mizuno-san, this is for you."

It's called a souvenir, but it's actually just a local specialty of Osaka, which is just a matcha-flavored cookie.

Mizuno Maki was a little stunned, but after she came to her senses, a hint of joy appeared on her elegant face. She took the gift and nodded gently, saying, "Thank you."

She never expected that Shirokaze would send her a special gift.

After all, the other students only received some candy.

This preferential treatment filled Mizuno Maki with immense joy.

Shirakaze Kamishiro then took out a box of cherry blossom-flavored dango from the bag and handed it to Chitanda Mirai:

"Chitanda-san, this is for you."

Chitanda Mirai, who was already happy looking at the photos, did not expect that Bai Feng would actually send her a souvenir.

Although it's just a dumpling, the cherry blossom flavor is my favorite.

But how did Kamishiro-kun know that he liked cherry blossom flavor?

A hint of joy appeared on Chitanda Mirai's sickly pale and delicate face. She took the box of dumplings with both hands, hugged it to her chest, and smiled sweetly, "Kamishiro-kun, thank you, I really like this souvenir!"

When Urahara Junko saw that the two of them had actually gotten food, she immediately became unhappy and looked at Bai Feng with a mixture of anxiety and anticipation.
