When the two entered the building and were greeted by a dazzling array of women's clothing, her face lit up with an expression of unbelievable surprise.

"Yu...why did we come here?"

"I'll buy you clothes~" Kitagawa Yu said to her with a smile, "Although Eiko-chan looks cute in her school uniform, she can't wear it to live house performances anymore, can she~"

"!!!"

Upon receiving confirmation, Tsukimi Eiko's face was filled with boundless joy.

Kitagawa Yu even praised her, saying that she looked cute in a sailor uniform, which made her feel happy, sweet, and a little bit smug and proud.

Immediately afterwards, a strong impulse welled up from the bottom of her heart, making her head spin, and she couldn't help but throw herself into Kitagawa Yu's arms, wrapping her arms around Kitagawa Yu's neck, and then... nothing more.

Eiko Tsukimi, who has hardly ever read novels, comics, or watched TV dramas, felt as if a blazing fire was burning inside her, making her face flushed and her cheeks hot. Her breathing and heartbeat became rapid, but she had no idea how to release this restless fire.

If they were at home, she could throw herself at Kitagawa Yu without a care in the world, but this is in public!

Even in the original story, after dating and even having a relationship with Hakamada Sosuke, she didn't dare to kiss him in public!

"How to do?"

"Or...or should I try closing my eyes?"

"But wouldn't that cause trouble for Yu?"

Tsukimi Eiko couldn't help but feel conflicted.

At the same time, Kitagawa Yu, who was startled by her sudden pounce, finally relaxed from her breathless and tense state.

Then, looking at Tsukimi Eiko, whose face was flushed with shyness and whose long eyelashes were trembling slightly, his heart raced and an impulse surged within him. He couldn't help but want to bite Tsukimi Eiko's crystal-clear, soft pink lips and savor their taste.

However, upon noticing that all the passersby were looking in their direction, he ultimately suppressed the impulse with some embarrassment, and, supporting Tsukimi Eiko's slender waist, created some distance between them.

Then... he didn't know if it was because he was afraid of hurting Tsukimi Eiko.

As he pushed Tsukimi Eiko away, he inexplicably added in a low voice, "There are too many people here."

This caused Tsukimi Eiko, who was initially disappointed and annoyed at not being able to take the opportunity to go further, to pause for a moment after hearing this. Then, her dark blue eyes shone with an even more joyful light than before.

"There are too many people here, so we can't. Then how about we wait until we get home...?"

"Cough-cough-"

Kitagawa Yu then realized that his words seemed somewhat ambiguous.

At the same time, he also noticed that Tsukimi Eiko seemed to be thinking about something inappropriate for young people.

So he quickly and guiltily avoided her burning gaze, coughed twice, and changed the subject, saying, "Let's go buy you the clothes for the performance first!"

"Uh-huh!"

Eiko Tsukimi nodded excitedly, and then... her gaze quickly swept over the other couples around her, with a hint of nervousness and shyness, she more and more skillfully took Kitagawa Yu's arm.

......

......

"Yingzi-chan, what do you think of this?"

"Eiko-chan, what about this one?"

"And why don't you try this on?"

"..."

It must be said that Tsukimi Eiko has truly remarkable patience.

In the anime, when Tsukimi Eiko first met Kongming, who had traveled to the modern era, he was unfamiliar with most things in the modern world.

So Tsukimi Eiko played the "question and answer" game with him for more than four hours, answering questions like "What is a cell phone?", "Why does this thing move by itself?", and "What is this used for?" before finally breaking down.

Now, when she goes shopping for clothes with Kitagawa Yu, her physical and mental energy levels are completely maxed out.

Not only did I not feel physically tired at all, but I was also incredibly happy and joyful throughout.

However, unlike yesterday's Anna Hanami, this time...

Perhaps due to her personality and experiences, Tsukimi Eiko is rather passive when it comes to buying clothes. It's always Kitagawa Yu who takes a liking to a piece of clothing and asks her what she thinks before she will express her opinion.

Let her try it on before she'll put it on and show it to Kitagawa Yu.

However, this gave Kitagawa Yu the feeling of playing a popular dress-up game for girls from his previous life.

Moreover, unlike when he could only look but not touch while playing games in his previous life, now he can not only look, but also... receive physical and facial feedback.

For example, when he was so engrossed in the role that he 'accidentally' made Tsukimi Eiko try on a rather suggestive maid outfit.

When Yingzi saw that month, she nervously and anxiously added two steps to her withdrawal.

A small hand carefully pulled back the curtain of the fitting room, while the other hand subconsciously pressed against the short skirt, which was too short to cover her panties, making it feel a bit chilly underneath.

But then she clearly presented the two Devil Fruits, half of which were exposed, to him, and looked at him with a shy expression.

His breathing and heartbeat seemed to stop for several seconds. When they came back to normal, it was as if a large bucket of gasoline had been poured on a newly lit campfire. Suddenly, he became agitated.

"Ah...it really suits her...Hmm...Eiko-chan looks really good in it~" Kitagawa Yu forced down a certain wicked impulse in his heart and praised her with a forced, relaxed smile.

However, the simple-minded Tsukimi Eiko, relying on her girlish intuition, sensed the burning flame in his eyes.

then......

"Then...can I buy it...I...I want to wear it at home...for Yu to see..."

Although she was incredibly shy and her body trembled involuntarily, and she couldn't help but lower her head halfway through her sentence, unable to meet Kitagawa Yu's gaze, Tsukimi Eiko finally mustered all the courage in her body and said the sentence completely.

"?!"

After hearing this, Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but gasp, almost losing control of his facial expression.

His heart, which had not yet calmed down, skipped another beat involuntarily, and then, as if Magnum had launched a whirlwind attack, it almost flew out of his body.

"My God! What's wrong with Yingzi? She seems like a completely different person as soon as she steps out today!?"

This question had been posed in Kitagawa Yu's mind for the nth time.

However... since Tsukimi Eiko has already made this request, it seems like he... has no way to refuse?

"Okay, then Yingzi-chan, you should change first."

Kitagawa Yu took another deep breath, repeatedly reminding himself that 'there are still many people around,' which helped him calm down.

But isn't this kind of 'dress-up game' much more fun than the one in my previous life that I could only watch?

Kitagawa Yu felt that he could play this dress-up game every day and never get tired of it.

In addition, the mall is well-lit, so you can't see the changes in the sky outside.

So when the two of them had so many shopping bags that they could hardly carry them all, Kitagawa Yu finally realized that it was almost six o'clock!

They had spent over five hours shopping in the mall!

At the same time, looking at the two shopping bags that Kitagawa Yu had just added to his hands, Tsukimi Eiko couldn't help but ask timidly, "Have we bought too much?"

"Actually, there aren't that many. If you count carefully, there are only three... four sets of clothes in total," Kitagawa Yu said with a relaxed smile.

Although the number of shopping bags seems a bit exaggerated, if you really count by the number of "sets", apart from the maid outfit that comes with accessories such as hair clips, leg H, apron, and S stockings, there are actually only three sets.

The first outfit is the same dark blue denim shorts worn by Momoka Kawahara, paired with a black hooded sweatshirt and over-the-knee thongs.

The second outfit is a classic black and white baseball jacket, paired with a fitted streetwear T-shirt and white wide-leg sweatpants.

These two outfits can be paired with the same pair of sneakers, and can be worn both when performing on stage and when going out casually.

However, considering that summer will be here in just over a month, he might not have time to accompany Tsukimi Eiko to come here again.

So he bought Tsukimi Eiko two loose T-shirts in different colors with Q-shaped Shiba Inu patterns, and a light yellow cake skirt with white L-shaped trim.

In addition, to match this dress, Kitagawa Yu specially selected a pair of pure white and a pair of light gray over-the-knee socks for her, both with cat ear decorations at the ends.

All of these combined still don't fill the somewhat faded suitcase that Tsukimi Eiko brought to Tokyo.

However, after wearing these outfits, Kitagawa Yu had only sixteen of the twenty-odd Fukuzawa Yukichi bills left in his wallet.

In other words, these clothes cost about 60,000 yen, which is equivalent to... a whole year's allowance for Anna Hanami.

This made Kitagawa Yu secretly think to himself, "This money really doesn't go far!"

Of course, he didn't feel any regret or heartache about spending so much money on clothes for Tsukimi Eiko.

Although the money was spent on Tsukimi Eiko, wouldn't he feel happier seeing the even more beautiful and adorable Tsukimi Eiko every day?

Don't you see how many pet owners buy their cats and dogs tons of clothes they don't even need, just to please themselves?

However, because of the budget overrun, he had to cancel his original plan to have dinner out with Tsukimi Eiko.

After all, it's cheaper for two people to cook at home than to eat out, especially since this place is Shibuya!

"Oh... it's getting late, why don't we go home? I just learned a new recipe from YouTube last night, and I wanted to make it for Yu tonight!" Tsukimi Eiko said sweetly, looking up at that moment.

The overhead light fell into her dark blue eyes, making them seem like stars. A charming smile graced her delicate face, as if she were carefully hiding something. She looked so well-behaved and adorable.

Kitagawa Yu felt a warmth in his heart and smiled as he patted her head.

"Okay! Let's go home then! Actually, I suddenly have a craving for sukiyaki~"

"Huh? Sukiyaki? I only have beef, green onions, and carrots at home. If I want to make sukiyaki, I'll have to go to the supermarket to buy other ingredients, right?"

"We'll just go home and drop off our things first, then I'll go to the supermarket to buy some myself."

"Let me and Yu go buy it together!"

"..."

"Shiitake mushrooms, white radishes, konjac, tofu... are there any foods that You don't like to eat?"

"I don't dislike them at all, but I'm not a big fan of konjac and tofu, and how can sukiyaki be complete without enoki mushrooms and baby bok choy!"

"..."

The two walked toward the elevator while discussing what other ingredients to put in sukiyaki besides green onions and carrots.

Although we couldn't hold hands anymore because we were carrying too many shopping bags.

But the distance between their hearts seemed to have narrowed a little.
