Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Chapter 302 You big idiot!

night.

In front of Maki Mizuno's house.

Kamidai Bai Feng said goodbye:

"See you tomorrow, Mizuno-san."

Erina Kamishiro waved goodbye and said:

"Maki-chan, see you tomorrow."

Maki Mizuno replied with a soft wave of her hand:

"Well, see you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye, Erina and Shiroshiro left.

As Mizuno Maki watched the two figures leave, chatting and laughing, a few indescribable emotions welled up inside her.

No matter what, they are now a family.

Even if they are sworn brothers and sisters, they shouldn't do anything inappropriate, right?

I shouldn't worry about it.

"Maki-chan, welcome back."

Grandma Otose was lying on a recliner downstairs at the apartment building today, smiling at Maki Mizuno.

Maki Mizuno paused for a moment, then pursed her lips and said with a complicated expression:

“I’m back, Grandma Otose.”

Granny Otose recalled the images of Shiro and Erina from earlier, and couldn't help but murmur again:

"It's been several days since I last saw these two sworn siblings."

"Looking at them today, those two kids are indeed quite handsome and cute."

"However, I could sense that there was something strange in that girl's eyes when she looked at Kamishiro-kun."

"Don't let them sneak into your house! Girls from my generation all said they would never like the boy I liked, but unexpectedly they turned around and kept pursuing him relentlessly. I only found out about it later. I was so angry back then that I really wanted to duel with them!"

"And this girl is also Kamishiro-kun's adopted sister, that's incredible!"

Maki Mizuno shook her head and said:

"Will not"

"Kamishiro-kun would never lay a hand on Erina-chan. He really only sees her as a little sister, and Erina-chan only sees him as a brother!"

"That kind of thing will never happen between them!"

Otose smiled reassuringly:

"That's good."

-

Family.

After returning, Shiro and Erina exclaimed in unison, "We're back!" x2

“Welcome back.” Ayaka Sato put down the book “I Want to Eat Your Pancreas” and turned to look at the two of them.

After Erina Kamishiro changed her shoes and came in, she looked curiously at the literature book in Ayaka Sato's hand and asked:

"Auntie, what novel are you reading?"

Sato Ayaka happily waved the book in her hand in front of Erina:

"It's a romance novel, it's called 'I Want to Eat Your Pancreas'!"

When Shen Dai Baifeng heard the title of this book, he almost vomited blood!

Why did my aunt buy this novel when she doesn't buy any other books?

And he remembered that his novel had sold out not long ago.

How come my aunt was still able to buy it?

Erina Kamishiro clenched her little fist and said excitedly:

"Yes, I've heard of this novel too!"

"My friends from other schools have all been talking about this novel, saying it's really good, the kind of book you can't stop reading once you start!"

Ayaka Sato also said with some excitement:

"Yes, it is!"

"Originally, I had no intention of buying the novel to read, Auntie."

"But while I was at work, I happened to be recommended this novel by other voice actors in the company. They said it had just been published that day and was very good."

"They even bought an extra copy and gave it to me to read."

"Before reading it, I searched for it online out of curiosity and found that this novel is really popular. It was sold out as soon as it was released today, and many bookstores don't have it anymore."

"I've been watching it ever since I got off work and came back around 7 p.m.

"I've been watching it all this time."

"It's really beautiful!"

"Although I haven't finished reading it yet, just looking at the two characters in the novel makes me want to fall in love!"

Erina Kamishiro's eyes widened:

"real or fake?"

"You actually gave your aunt such a high rating?"

Ayaka Sato nodded emphatically:

"It's really good. Once your aunt has seen it, Erina, you can take it and see for yourself!"

On her way back by train, Erina Kamishiro saw many classmates discussing how good the novel was on her phone, which made her quite eager to read it herself and see if it was as good as they said.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to buy them.

She also checked the data and comments on X afterward.

It seems that only 5,000 copies of this new book were published on the first day.

Bookstores started selling it around 8 a.m.

It also received many positive reviews online.

Several bloggers who enjoy reading novels even posted videos strongly recommending the book after finishing it, which quickly spread its popularity. As a result, many people went to buy it after noon.

And around three or four o'clock, they were sold out.

This indirectly means that even if these people wanted to buy it, they simply couldn't!

Fortunately, my aunt's friend bought an extra copy, otherwise she would have had to borrow one from her classmates tomorrow!

"Auntie, how much longer until you finish watching?"

"Remember to tell me after you've finished watching it. I also want to see if it's as good as you guys say."

Ayaka Sato flipped through the book, and after seeing that there were only about twenty pages left, she smiled and said:

"There are only a few pages left."

"Erina, why don't you go take a shower first? You'll probably be ready by the time you come out."

Upon hearing this, Erina Kamishiro nodded happily and said:

"Well, I'm going to take a shower first."

As she spoke, she prepared to go to her room to get a change of clothes and take a shower.

As Shiro Kaede listened to their conversation, he scratched his cheek, unsure of what to say.

Subsequently.

Shiro Kaede prepared a midnight snack: "Erina, Auntie, come and have some midnight snack!"

Sato Ayaka, the little crybaby, had just finished watching the ending. She finally couldn't hold back her tears any longer and burst into tears, sobbing, "Waaaaah~ Why... why did the heroine have to die like this?"

Erina Kamishiro had already noticed that Ayaka Sato's eyes were glistening with tears, and she was already silently sobbing.

But since I knew she was reading a novel, I just assumed she was feeling sentimental.

Unexpectedly, my aunt actually cried when she saw the end.

Is it that exaggerated?

After witnessing his aunt actually crying, Shiro Kaede, somewhat amused, went over to comfort her and said:

"Auntie, don't cry."

"It's just a plot in a novel, there's no need to take it so seriously."

As Sato Ayaka saw Kamishiro Shiroka approaching, she instinctively hugged him and cried out:

"Waaaaah~ I know it's just a plot from a novel, but I just can't help feeling so sad."

"This author writes so realistically and immersively. It's so realistic that even my aunt wonders if he actually has a female friend in real life who is sick and whom she worries about every day if she might suddenly pass away."

"And most importantly, why this ending? Why did it have to be this way?"

"Waaaaah~ Isn't a happy ending good enough?"

"Auntie, I love happy endings, waaaaah~"

Kamishiro Shiro couldn't hold back any longer and rubbed his aunt's head, laughing:

"Novels need to be written in a way that leaves a deep impression on people so that they are easily remembered."

"But stories are all made up; how could the author possibly have actually met a girl like that?"

In the end, Shiro Shiro was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of Chitanda Mirai.
