Crayon Shin-chan: As someone who's traveled through time, all I want is a huge reward!

Today, Nana wore a light purple dress, the hem of which just reached above her knees, revealing her slender calves. She wore a pair of off-white Mary Jane shoes, her hair was loosely placed behind her shoulders, and she had a plain hair clip in her hair. She was carrying a small backpack that matched her shoes.

On her backpack was a custom-made chibi-style Lin Yu keychain.

Seeing Lin Yu come in, Nana smiled at him and said, "Let's go now." Lin Yu nodded and agreed.

At that moment, Ohara Shiro blocked their way and said, "You must be back by eight o'clock tonight. You can stay out alone with him, do you hear me!"

Hearing this, Lin Yu smiled and assured Ohara Shiro, "Don't worry, I'll protect Nanako." Seeing Lin Yu's smiling expression, Ohara Shiro was very displeased, believing Lin Yu was provoking him, and said, "Protect what?! I'm protecting you, kid!"

Seeing that Ohara Shiro still wanted to continue talking, Nanako quickly pulled Lin Yu away and ran out.

"I'm so sorry, you must have seen this." Nanako Ohara said apologetically to Lin Yu. Lin Yu smiled and patted Nanako's head nonchalantly, saying, "It's okay, your dad is just worried sick."

Then Lin Yu took a bunch of white bellflowers from the Batmobile and handed them to her. Lin Yu remembered that Nana had mentioned bellflowers to him before, something like "eternal love".

Lin Yu handed over the bellflower, saying, "Here, I bought this especially for you because I know you like bellflowers."

Nana took the flower with delight, brought her nose close to smell it, and smiled even more brightly. "Thank you, I really like it. I'm going to put it in a vase and keep it when I get back."

Then she reached out and took Lin Yu's arm, her fingertips lightly touching his wrist, and said, "Let's hurry up, or we'll miss the movie."

Sitting in the passenger seat of the Batmobile, Nana took out two chibi-style figurines from her bag. One was a chibi version of Lin Yu that looked exactly like the one on her bag, and the other was a chibi version of herself.

Ohara Nanako handed two chibi-style figurines to Lin Yu, saying, "These are custom-made; they're chibi versions of the two of us." Lin Yu took the two little trinkets from Nanako's hand, smiled, and jokingly said, "Nanako, are you planning to 'punch and kick' my figurines whenever you're unhappy?"

When Nana realized Lin Yu was teasing her, she nodded and said, "Yeah, you'd better watch out." The two of them burst into laughter.

After the joke, Nana leaned back in her chair, took out a sample copy of "Akame ga Kill!" from her backpack, and handed it to Lin Yu: "Look, this is the latest sample copy. The editor made color pages for the part you wrote about Tatsumi and Akame fighting against the Empire. It's really beautiful."

Lin Yu took the sample magazine, flipped it open, and saw Tatsumi wearing a black night outfit, holding a sword, with Akame standing next to him, his eyes firm, against a background of a burning imperial palace, the colors vivid and impactful. "Very good, much better than I expected."

"The editor said the reader feedback on this part has been particularly good, with many people urging for a sequel and asking if Tatsumi can successfully overthrow the Empire." Nana leaned closer and gently touched his arm with her shoulder. "Would you like me to help you organize the readers' suggestions?"

"No need," Lin Yu said with a smile. "But if you have any ideas, feel free to tell me. Your opinion is very important to me." Nana realized the hidden meaning in Lin Yu's words and immediately turned away, her face turning red.

The Batmobile drove smoothly toward a movie theater in Tokyo, and Luo Shang Nanako chatted idly with Lin Yu about publishing matters.

Soon, Lin Yu drove the Batmobile to the vicinity of the movie theater. After Lin Yu parked the car, he took Nana's hand and walked in. There weren't many people in the movie theater, but most of them were couples.

The air in the movie theater was filled with the aroma of popcorn. Lin Yu bought a caramel popcorn and a double hot cocoa, while Nana went to get the tickets. The two met at the ticket gate.

“Our seats are in the middle towards the back, the view is great,” Nana said, handing her ticket to Lin Yu with a hint of pride. “I deliberately chose this seat, not too far forward and not too far back. How about that, am I smart?” Nana’s words successfully made Lin Yu laugh. “Yeah, pretty smart. You should know to run home when it rains.”

Lin Yu took the ticket, led her by the hand, and walked into the screening room. They found seats and the movie just started. The screen dimmed, the opening theme began, and the scene gradually unfolded to the accompaniment of a melodious tune...

The film's plot was so tight that the audience couldn't take their eyes off it, and the dramatic twists and turns of the story made many viewers whimper softly.

Seeing such a touching scene, Nana couldn't help but lean on Lin Yu's shoulder, her eyes red with tears.

Lin Yu felt the weight on his shoulder, gently patted her back, took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her: "Don't be sad, they'll definitely be alright later."

Nana took the tissue and wiped her tears. She didn't say anything but nodded, seemingly in response to Lin Yu.

The movie had a happy ending, but it was still filled with regrets. When the end credits rolled, some people in the noisy theater were marveling at how wonderful the plot was.

"It was so good!" Nana stood up from her chair. "I'm still a little overwhelmed!"

"Shall we go get some dessert to cheer ourselves up?" Lin Yu said with a smile. "The strawberry tiramisu from that Italian restaurant you mentioned before should make you feel better."

"Okay!" Nanako Ohara nodded, took Lin Yu's hand, and walked outside. "I heard they released a new cherry blossom flavored sparkling water! Let's try it together!"

The Italian restaurant isn't far from the movie theater; it's about a ten-minute walk away.

The restaurant's facade is made of wood, and there's an adorable kitten at the entrance to welcome guests—a unique and interesting idea.

The restaurant played soothing jazz music, and the lighting was a fitting warm yellow. Each table had a small pot of succulents, creating a very Italian atmosphere.

"Hello, do you have a reservation?" A waiter immediately greeted them with a very friendly smile as they walked in.

"Yes, there are," Lin Yu said, giving the name of the person who had made the reservation.

The waiter led them to a window seat, from which they could see the Tokyo Tower in the distance. The lights on the tower were already on, making it look like a giant star.

"The view from here is amazing." Nanako sat down and excitedly took out her phone to start taking pictures.

Lin Yu took the menu and handed it to Nana: "Take a look and see what you want to eat. I'll do whatever you say."

Nana took the menu and lightly swiped her finger across it: "I'd like a filet mignon, medium-rare, a strawberry tiramisu, and a cherry blossom sparkling water." She looked up at Lin Yu, "And you? Want the same as me?"

“Okay.” Lin Yu nodded. “Let’s also order a bowl of matsutake mushroom soup, so we can drink it together.”

After the waiter left, Nana looked out the window and chatted idly with Lin Yu: "Xiaoxin told me the other day that you were going to watch the robot launch event. How are your preparations going?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Xiao Ai and the others arranged everything. I think it's almost done." Nana then asked, "By the way, you said you wanted to demonstrate the outdoor and indoor robots, are they ready yet?"

"It's all set up," Lin Yu said. "I had Tongchuan and Wanma debug it beforehand. Now the outdoor robot can easily lift a ton of ore, and the indoor robot can even read picture books to children!"

"Then this press conference will definitely be a great success," Nana said, her eyes full of trust.

The dishes we had just ordered were quickly served by the waiter.

The filet mignon is pan-fried until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, drizzled with black pepper sauce and smells amazing. The matsutake mushroom soup is rich and delicious, and a sip warms you up. The cherry blossom sparkling water is filled with pink bubbles and topped with a fresh cherry blossom, making it both beautiful and delicious.

Finally, the dessert served was strawberry tiramisu, topped with a thick layer of strawberries and sprinkled with fine icing sugar, with a small scoop of strawberry-flavored ice cream on the side.

Nana picked up a spoon, scooped out a spoonful, and held it to Lin Yu's lips: "Try it, this tiramisu isn't greasy at all, and the strawberries used are super fresh."

Lin Yu opened his mouth and tasted the sweet but not cloying flavor that spread in his mouth, along with a faint strawberry aroma. He couldn't help but nod and say, "It's delicious."

“Of course!” Nanako smiled proudly. “I definitely made the right choice.” She then scooped up another spoonful and ate it herself, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with delight. “Next time we can bring Shin-chan and the others to eat here; Shin-chan will definitely love this.”

"Okay," Lin Yu said with a smile. "After we finish the press conference, we'll take him out for a meal."

After we finished eating, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky, like a thin veil.

Seeing this, Lin Yu opened the umbrella he had specially brought that morning, completely blocking the light rain. Nana took Lin Yu's arm, and the two walked slowly down the streets of Tokyo.

The rain pattered against the umbrella, making a soft "shush" sound. The light from the streetlights shone through the raindrops, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

"Shall we go see the cherry blossom park near Tokyo Tower?" Nana suddenly said as we walked. "I heard that the cherry blossoms and Tokyo Tower look especially beautiful together when the lights are on at night."

Seeing Nanako's expectant expression, Lin Yu nodded and said, "Okay." The two then walked together toward the cherry blossom park. Lin Yu's umbrella gradually tilted toward Nanako, and he didn't even notice that a small patch of his shoulder had gotten wet.

Nana took many photos at the cherry blossom park. Raindrops fell on the cherry blossom petals, the pink and white petals with water droplets were especially delicate. The lights of Tokyo Tower shone with a warm yellow light, reflecting on the cherry blossoms, making it as beautiful as a gentle painting.

The rain gradually stopped, and Lin Yu escorted Nana back to her apartment building.

After the two lingered in the car for a while, Nana hung a cute cartoon figure of herself on Lin Yu's car before leaving, saying, "That way you'll think of me every time you drive!"

Lin Yu smiled, gently hugged Nana, and kissed her forehead: "Get some rest, I'll miss you."

Nana leaned against him and whispered, "I'll miss you too. I'll be there to cheer you on at the press conference."

Chapter 278 The Eve of the Robot Launch

After saying goodbye to Nanako, Lin Yu drove the Batmobile towards the Nohara family's house. On the way, he looked at the photos of himself and Nanako on his phone, and couldn't help but smile.

When he returned to the Nohara family home, it was already 10 p.m. Shin-chan was still awake and sitting in the living room waiting for him. As soon as he saw him come back, he ran over and said, "Yu! You're finally back! Can you play video games with me tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow won't work. How about we play video games together next time when we're free?" Lin Yu said, ruffling his hair.

"Yay!" Shin-chan jumped up excitedly. "Then next time you're free, can you invite Kazama and the others over to play together?" Lin Yu nodded. "Of course you can!"

Just then, Xiaochun came out of the kitchen with a cup of hot milk in her hand: "Ayu, are you tired? Drink some milk and get some rest."

"Mm." Lin Yu took the milk. "Thank you, Xiao Chun."

After finishing his milk, Lin Yu returned to his room, took out his computer, and began organizing the process for the robot launch event.

The email from Kuroki on the screen read: "Teacher Lin, the guests for the press conference have been confirmed. In addition to Chairman Yamada and the representatives of the construction company, Teacher Matsuzaka and Teacher Yoshinaga will also be there, as well as some of Shin-chan's kindergarten children. They said they want to come and see the robot performance."

Lin Yu replied, "Okay, I understand. I'll go to Westworld tomorrow to double-check the robot's debugging status."

The moonlight gradually filtered through the curtains and fell on the sleeping Xiaochun, illuminating her beautiful face that had been hidden in the shadows of the blankets.

Only then did Lin Yu realize how late it was. He turned off his computer, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep to the sound of soft breathing.

On Sunday morning, Lin Yu got up early, ate breakfast, and went upstairs to the Westworld area. The moment he passed through the projector, the hot wind carrying the fresh scent of minerals wafted towards him amidst the yellow sand.

Tongchuan was standing at the entrance of the robot warehouse organizing the debugging record sheets, while Wanma was circling around a silver outdoor robot, holding the newly upgraded heat dissipation component in his hands with his eyes full of anticipation.

"Lin Yu, you've finally arrived!" Tong Chuan quickly came forward and handed over the neatly arranged record sheet.

“When we tested the laser cutter of the outdoor robot yesterday, we found that after working continuously for forty minutes, there was still room for improvement in heat dissipation efficiency. We studied it all night and felt that we could further improve stability by optimizing the air duct.”

Lin Yu took the record sheet and ran his fingertips over the densely packed, precise data, laser power, cutting speed, and temperature curves. Each item was marked with the test time and optimization direction.

He walked up to the outdoor robot, where Wanma had already removed the heat sink cover on the side of the robotic arm, revealing the clean heat sink inside. "Look, now we can take advantage of the optimization to add a layer of protection to the air duct, making it easier to use later."

Lin Yu crouched down and lightly touched the gaps in the heatsink with his fingers. "Not bad, it's more than enough for the press conference demonstration."

Wanma nodded and took out a special cleaning cotton and a compressed air canister from the toolbox, gently wiping the heat sink to ensure that every crevice was clean as new.

Tongchuan turned to go to the warehouse to get the custom-made dustproof netting. Lin Yu suddenly said, "By the way, how's the progress on the indoor robot's voice recognition system? We talked about optimizing it for children's voices last time."

"It's completely optimized!" Wanma said without looking up, his hands still moving, his tone full of excitement.

"I expanded the frequency range of children's voices by 10%, and the recognition rate can reach 98%. It can even accurately capture the slightly unclear pronunciation of children!"

"This is exceptionally well done." Lin Yu got up and walked to the indoor robot. This robot was half the height of the outdoor robot and was entirely a soft off-white color. The round touchscreen on its chest glowed with a warm light.

"Let's test the child care functions again, such as covering the doll with a blanket and handing it a picture book. Let's make the details even more thoughtful." Wanma nodded and pressed the remote control.

The indoor robot slowly turned its body, walked to the crib next to it, and gently picked up the small blanket. It carefully unfolded the corners and then slowly covered the doll's body, its movements so gentle as if afraid of disturbing the sleeping child.

Then it turned around and walked to the bookshelf. After scanning "The Story of Little Bear", the mechanical arm's fingertips were specially padded with a layer of soft rubber. It gently pulled out the book and steadily handed it to Lin Yu. The whole process was smooth and gentle, without any mechanical stiffness.
