"Mu, please say hello. Don't be too rude."

Xiangzi then remembered that Wakaba Mu behind him hadn't said a word, which was very rude in social situations, so he immediately asked her to make amends.

"Hello."

If Ye Mu only managed to squeeze out this greeting in the end, Uesugi Cheng didn't care. Rather, he felt it was a bit strange that there was someone here who greeted him so solemnly.

"Why don't you two go in and sit down? Although I came out because I couldn't stand it anymore."

Uesugi Cheng asked and looked back at the moon in the sky. The moonlight was very bright and even a little cold.

"Ah... no, I just saw Uesugi-san here so I thought of coming here..."

Of course, Toyokawa Shoko would not say that she was just curious. If anything, the Uesugi family was something that her family had been talking about recently. After all, according to the elders, the first two of the three children of this generation of the Uesugi family had already demonstrated their abilities and talents, but they knew too little about Uesugi Sumiya.

"Is that so? Now that you have seen the person you are curious about, what do you think?"

Uesugi Sumiko smiled. Even if Toyokawa Shoko didn't say anything, she couldn't hide her curious expression, so he just asked openly.

"Ah... Uesugi-san is really amazing..."

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly became flustered, as if someone had seen through her thoughts, just like a student who was caught by the teacher for not doing his homework.

"Thank you for the compliment. Let's talk again next time if we have the chance. By the way, I haven't asked your names yet."

Uesugi Cheng smiled, and his mood became better after teasing the little sister. He took out his mobile phone and prepared to add a friend. It was never too many to add one.

"My name is Toyokawa Shoko, and the person behind me is Wakaba Mu. Thank you for your guidance."

Xiangzi seemed a little overjoyed. She took out her cell phone and added Uesugi Sumire as a friend. As for Wakaba Mutsu, she just looked at Uesugi Sumire blankly. Finally, it was Xiangzi Toyokawa who reminded her and she added him as a friend.

After finishing these things, Uesugi Cheng chatted with them for a few more words and then watched them leave. He didn't expect that he actually completed the task assigned by his elder sister here. After all, he got to chat with people and added them as friends.

"Uesugi-san, I didn't expect you to be here?"

Uesugi Cheng was stunned for a moment. How could so many people recognize him tonight? He turned around again and saw a black-haired girl wearing quite formal clothes.

"Yukinoshita? You actually came to a place like this?"

Uesugi Sumiko coughed. He had thought of many possibilities, but he just didn't think of Yukinoshita Yukino. It was at this time that he remembered that Yukinoshita Yukino was a person with a considerable family background.

"I don't really want to come...you too..."

At this moment, the two of them almost telepathically figured out how the other might have come, and the atmosphere suddenly became joyful.

"So Master Uesugi is here to admire the moon because..."

"Come on, go in and eat a couple of bites, and then you'll know why I came out."

Uesugi Cheng complained unhappily that he would have to find a fast food restaurant that served large portions to comfort himself later.

After saying this, he gently touched the remaining juice in the cup with his finger.

"If you have nothing to do, go find your sister. It's not convenient for me to continue chatting here."

Uesugi Cheng yawned and began to paint in the air with his fingers.

Although it was a strange action, Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned. She saw... the painting that was gradually taking shape in the air was not a 'painting' in the secular sense.

[Sight and Perception Lv.8] (9 Dome 8 Winter)

Uesugi Cheng sighed. He finally reached his bottleneck.

199

Chapter 199: The power of leap consciousness.

The feeling of encountering a bottleneck is very novel. Uesugi Cheng doesn't know if other book managers have encountered this situation, but he has already felt it now. It is not a problem of knowledge reserve, but simply that he feels that he cannot draw the effect he wants. In order to vent this frustrated feeling, he chooses to use the leap knowledge he just obtained as inspiration for painting in the air. Of course, he also used his own soul.

Of course, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't see any of this. She only knew that the man in front of her simply drew a very horrifying scene in the air with his fingers. Everything was silent, the sun never rose, and everyone was sleeping in the snow and darkness to await their end. The scene was too grand and real. She only felt that the biting cold wind seemed to pry open her skin and pierce into her bones. She even felt that if she continued like this, she would soon die of hypothermia in this refreshing autumn night.

"Is it too cold?"

Yukinoshita Yukino subconsciously touched her arm. She indeed felt that her body was showing unnatural signs of hypothermia. Even her throat seemed to be frozen and she couldn't utter a word.

"Sorry, I didn't notice you weren't gone yet."

Uesugi Sumishō patted Yukinoshita Yukino's shoulder and found that her body had indeed become a little stiff. If it weren't for her heartbeat and breathing, she might look no different from a person who had frozen to death.

"Nothing... My body didn't react at all, but I felt like I was almost frozen to death. Is this really such a terrifying ability?"

Yukinoshita Yukino finally recovered, sweat dripping from her hair stuck to her forehead onto the bridge of her nose, but she had no intention of wiping it off. She could only breathe deeply, trying to drive out the feeling of eternal cold death passing by her from her brain.

"Who knows, right? But this is indeed an oversight on my part. I'll take you back to the banquet hall so you can have a drink and warm yourself up."

With a wave of his hand, Uesugi Cheng used up the extra knowledge that made him feel unhappy. He had no plans to read the book again for the time being. After all, Julian Coselli was really good at disgusting people and pointed out a future for Uesugi Cheng that almost no one would like.

"Thank you..."

Yukinoshita Yukino did not refuse. In her current condition, she couldn't even walk a few more steps, let alone return to the venue. It would be much better to have someone to support her than to collapse on the ground.

When they returned to the venue, the banquet was still going on. Uesugi Sumire poured a cup of hot milk for Yukinoshita Yukino as an apology. After all, he estimated that Yukinoshita would probably have a low-grade fever in the next two days. She had just recovered from weakness, but was weakened by his painting. He felt a little embarrassed about that.

"Uesugi-san, it's really strange that you would come back with Yukino."

Yukinoshita Haruno suddenly appeared beside them. Of course, this was not a sudden thing in the eyes of Uesugi Sumiya. He just didn't want to pay attention to Yukinoshita Haruno.

"I saw that Yukinoshita-san looked a little weak, so I sent her back. She shouldn't be in any serious trouble now, so I'll take my leave first."

Uesugi Sumire didn't plan to chat more. If Yukinoshita Yukino still made him want to communicate, then Haruno's expression and tone made him want to stay away from her.

"Yukino, are you okay?"

After Uesugi Sumire walked away, Yukinoshita Haruno spoke again. Her tone was completely different from before and sounded more natural.

"Cough, cough, cough, it's okay, I just need to go back home and lie down for a night..."

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed. It seemed like she would be unlucky every time she saw Uesugi Sumire. But she couldn't find anything to blame for such things. God knew how well she could tell herself apart by looking at a non-existent painting.

"Ugh……"

Yukinoshita Haruno didn't say much. It was impossible for her to persuade Yukinoshita Yukino to stay away from Uesugi Sumire. After all, according to her dear mother's idea, she might let Yukino have more contact with Uesugi Sumire. And it was obvious that the other party didn't want to have any contact with her at all, which made her feel a little tricky.

However, on the other side of the venue, Uesugi Sumiko found a corner to sit in. He found that he could make the atmosphere 100% silent as long as he went into the crowd, so he simply found a place and started to check his phone and think about where to go for dinner after the meeting.

“How does it feel to be here?”

"Do you like this tasteless dish so much?"

Uesugi Cheng asked. His only impression of this social occasion was that the food was too bland.

"After all, these people are all important people. If the taste is too strong, they may not like it. It is better to cook some dishes that are guaranteed to be perfect. After all, they are not here to eat, but to chat."

Uesugi Saki, who was wearing a dress, had a slightly red face, and it seemed that she had drunk some alcohol.

"What does this have to do with me? I just know that I can't resist a single bite of the food here. The texture of the meat is indeed good, but the taste is the same as if it was just blanched and served. Do you have an appetite?"

"Hahaha, then I'll invite you to eat somewhere else tonight. I'm really sorry for forcing you to come to a place like this."

Uesugi Saki suddenly laughed and apologized to Uesugi Saki in a low voice.

"You said it, then I won't be polite."

Uesugi Sumiko and her sister sat there until the meeting was almost over but no third person came to talk to them, so she simply carried Uesugi Saki out of the venue.

"Where are you going next?"

Uesugi Saki gently leaned close to Uesugi Sumire's ear and even blew into his ear. Normally, she would never do such a thing. She herself didn't know whether it was the influence of alcohol or she was just too happy today that she did such an irrational thing.

"Ah, I'll take you back to the car to change your clothes. After all, I'm going to the ramen shop to eat a large portion later, and I'll use your wallet to pay for it. It's not convenient to wash the clothes you're wearing, so you might as well change into regular clothes."

Uesugi Sumiya's words made the entire atmosphere disappear completely. Uesugi Saki lay on Uesugi Sumiya's back expressionlessly, and her eyes gradually turned into dead fish eyes.

"Ah, then I'll have a large, strong drink, and ask him to give them some Coke or something. Let's drink. How can these bastards not get drunk to death?"

Uesugi Cheng looked at Uesugi Saki who revealed his true nature, sighed and quickened his pace. He knew that since he came here with his sister, his sister would definitely be the first one to lose her composure.

"By the way, sis, I want to draw comics."

Uesugi Cheng said casually.

200

Chapter 200 A new story.

Uesugi Saki raised his head and looked at Uesugi Sumiya's face. His younger brother said this without any hesitation. It seemed like he was talking about something as trivial as where to eat tomorrow.

"Then just paint. Don't go to high school?"

"Yes, I'm going to go, I'm just letting you know. If I don't answer your calls in the future, it means I'm working on a manuscript, so don't bother me with trivial matters."

Uesugi Sumire said the words very naturally, which made veins pop out on Uesugi Saki's forehead.

"I think you guys wish you couldn't receive our calls at all, right?"

A slap hit Uesugi Saki's head, and then Uesugi Saki touched his knuckles aggrievedly, looking at Uesugi Saki who had no change at all, and finally his tone softened.

"We wouldn't call you unless it was something urgent. Do you think we would call you to ask about family matters?"

"That's fine, I was just saying that. Can you help me review the manuscript later? I remember that you used to hide your comic books in my room, and I was the one who got beaten when you were found out."

Uesugi Sumire threw Uesugi Saki into her car without any mercy, and then sat in the driving seat herself.

"Wait, you just got your driver's license and started driving? If you get caught, it'll be my fault! It'll be a hassle to deal with. It'll be more troublesome than if I was caught driving under the influence."

Uesugi Saki's eyes went dark when she saw Uesugi Sumire starting the car skillfully. She didn't want to be blamed if something happened.

"Come on, didn't you always ask me to take the blame when you got into trouble before? Don't worry, no one will catch you."

Uesugi Sumire started the car, and on the roof that Uesugi Saki couldn't see, a cute doll slowly revealed its figure, and released its mist with a very helpless look, covering the license plate and characteristic points of the car. Himegami Sakura never thought that she could be used in this way.

Uesugi Sakiya knew that Uesugi Sumire would definitely not look back, so she simply started changing clothes in the back row without any hesitation, asking as she changed.

"I saw you getting close to a few girls today. How do you feel about that?"

"Do you think I have?"

After hearing this, Uesugi Saki shook her head helplessly and simply remained silent.

The music in the car started playing. It was a very soft love song. Uesugi Sumiya adjusted the tune casually and it suddenly became the theme song of some classic animation. Uesugi Saki simply stopped talking when she heard the tune. She wondered why her brother was so familiar with this car and even knew what she liked to listen to.

Thirty minutes later, in the ramen restaurant, Uesugi Saki, who was still drunk, helped Uesugi Saki to sit down. They ordered two extra large bowls of noodles and filled them with toppings.

"Want to hear a story? It's right here. Didn't you say you wanted to draw a comic? See if you can draw the story I tell you."

Uesugi Saki's sudden proposal surprised Uesugi Cheng a little. He shifted his gaze from his mobile phone to his sister who suddenly became mysterious.

"You tell me, I don't know if I can draw it, but I will try my best."

Uesugi Cheng honestly said that the knowledge and memories to help him continue to improve [Sight and Perception] were indeed insufficient. In this case, it would be better to wait for the right opportunity instead of forcing this skill to the highest peak.

"Then I'll tell you... This is a story that takes place on an autumn night exactly like the present, and the protagonist is..."

Uesugi Saki broke open the disposable chopsticks and drew circles in the air, as if the disposable chopsticks in her hand were actually a magic wand.

Uesugi Saki is a really good storyteller, and because she had been drinking, she had less control over her voice. She herself didn't even notice that the customers sitting next to her seemed to speak a little more quietly.

Uesugi Sumiko simply took out his sketchbook and began to draw the scene according to the description of Uesugi Saki, who was already engrossed in the story.

"Wait, when did you take out your notebook?!"

Uesugi Saki finished her speech with a refreshed look and was about to start eating when she suddenly discovered that Uesugi Sumire was slowly packing up his own notebook. In an instant, even the noodles stopped on the chopsticks. She really couldn't imagine how Uesugi Sumire could carry such a notebook according to the clothes he was wearing.

"I brought it in when I entered the store just now. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

Uesugi Cheng pointed at the guests next to him, they thought about it and nodded in agreement. Although they didn't see it, it didn't mean they were unwilling to do this favor. It was just a matter of saying a few words anyway.

Uesugi Saki was stunned for a moment, but still put the noodles into his mouth, chewing and thinking at the same time. Uesugi Saki also put the notebook away very decisively. The story given by Uesugi Saki was really great. He suddenly had the desire to create, the desire to draw such a story completely.

But filling my stomach is more important now.

"Oh, oh, bro, have you heard about that incident?"

As if infected, the office worker at the table next to them suddenly started speaking mysteriously.

"This is what a friend of a friend told me... It is said that recently, a terrifying evil spirit appeared on the street late at night."

When Uesugi Saki heard what his friend's friend said, he was stunned for a moment, then adjusted his mindset and just treated it as an interesting story, not noticing Uesugi Saki's expression gradually becoming serious.

"What the hell... Is today some kind of story session?"

Uesugi Cheng took a sip of the thick soup. It was indeed a bit too salty, but it was just right to soothe his anxious heart.

"Of course, if it was just people carrying out indiscriminate attacks, we would at most just curse those tax thieves, but this incident has already caused the deaths of at least three people for no apparent reason, and one of them is someone I know!"
