The great revival of Yuri Kosaka

The main reason was that her attention was focused on Kousaka Kirino just now, and she did not look at the kitchen behind her or see him cooking with her own eyes.

But based on common sense, Aragaki Ayase thinks that it is normally impossible for ordinary people to use two pots to cook at the same time.

You must know that this is four completely different dishes. Only those who have actually cooked can understand how difficult it is to control two pots at the same time.

Even using two pots to cook the same dish is difficult, let alone cooking different dishes.

A normal person might have to hang his body in the air and use his hands and feet simultaneously to ensure that both sides can be completed.

"As long as you have enough momentum, you can do it!" "No, from a practical point of view it's not possible."

Chapter 277

"It's the afternoon, right? I didn't get the time wrong, right? Why do you look like I'm here so slowly!" For Kanako Kurusu, she just agreed to Kousaka Kirino's invitation and met Aragaki. Ayase came over to play.

However, when she arrived at the agreed upon place at the appointed time, she entered the Takasaka house and saw Kirino Takasaka, whose face had been painted with several graffiti.

And the other party was looking at her with a murderous expression.

"Sorry, Kirino's friend, she is in a bad mood now because of losing several times." Yuri Kosaka, who opened the door for Kanako Kurusu, replied appropriately, but these words also made Kirino stare at Kosaka even more angrily. Yuri.

No way, most of the graffiti on her face was put on by Yuri Kosaka.

The reason is also very simple. The five poker cards held by Kosaka Kirino and the three poker cards held by Ayase Aragaki opposite her explain everything.

After the meal, they had nothing to do, so they decided to play poker.

Under normal circumstances, if there were only Kosaka Yuri and Kosaka Kirino, they might choose to play game consoles in the living room.

The problem is that now there is Ayase Aragaki, and Ayase Aragaki is obviously not the kind of person who likes playing video games. Even if she can accept Kirino Kosaka playing video games, she will definitely not be able to get started by herself.

This makes it unreasonable for the other party to just watch from the side, so the ghost card that everyone can accept becomes a common choice after discussion.

The game is played in the most traditional mode with the most common rules.

Just put a ghost card in the deck, and then

The players divide the cards equally, and each player can draw one of the other players' cards each round, and then play the cards with the same number into pairs.

The first person to empty out the cards is the winner, and the person who is unable to empty out the cards at the end because he only has a single ghost card in his hand is the loser.

Each time, the first winner can draw a graffiti on the face of the last loser. It is a harmless punishment in this game and the driving force behind everyone not wanting to lose.

Regrettably, from the meal till now, the only one who has continued to add graffiti on his face is Kousaka Kirino.

But to be honest, Kosaka Yuri is very particular about fairness when playing this kind of game, and he didn't do anything unnecessary at all.

He kept a poker face expressionless almost the whole time, holding the cards in a daze. When he was about to draw, he also adopted a completely fair and impartial random mode.

To put it simply, Yuri Kosaka simulates a dice in his mind, and then rolls the points according to the number of remaining cards of the opponent, and draws the number based on the number of roll points.

The strange thing is here. He obviously feels that he has used this method to give himself no advantage. It all depends on God.

But the fact is that he was the winner from beginning to end. He had a winning streak even though he did nothing, which made Yuri Kosaka feel particularly confused.

"If you did it on purpose, you were targeting me on purpose!" Kirino Kosaka, whose eyes, nose, and cheeks had been damaged, and looked quite strange, complained loudly.

"Kirino~~Come on!" Aragaki Ayase on the side asked worriedly, but he showed no mercy and picked up the cards he needed with a casual draw, thus ending the game.

"Ahhhhh, we lost again, Ayase, did you do that on purpose?" "There is no such thing, you are right, Kanako." "This was completely on purpose, Ayase was too serious. Well... You are rivals at this time, right? Why does Ayase want to cheer Kirino up? What about tactics?" "This is this, that is that, Kanako, do you understand it or not!" "Okay, Well, I just don’t understand anyway. Who is this, Kirino’s brother?” Although it was said that Kanako Kurusu was brought in by Yuri Kosaka, Yuri Kosaka did not introduce herself. She really didn’t know Yuri Kosaka was. Who is Kirino Kousaka?

"Well, my brother... Hey, make the drawing shorter!" "You can erase it after you're done, so it doesn't matter." There aren't many opportunities to play a prank on Kirino Takasaka without any side effects. Without paying attention, he drew a small flower on Kousaka Kirino's forehead, a small flower named Xiaohua.

"Hey, hey, it doesn't matter if you are playing, let me join in, otherwise why would I come here." It's not a big deal if you come late, but if you can't join in after everyone is here, Kanako Kurusu thinks Something is wrong.

Today was a rare day off. She came here specially. It was really unjustifiable for her to act as a background creature.

"Oh, if that's the case, I'll back off. Kirino, you have to play well with your friends... huh?" After hearing what Kanako Kurusu said, Yuri Kosaka felt that something was wrong when she thought about it. Her friend was obviously I came here to play with her, so it was strange to be sandwiched between them.

So he waved his hand and prepared to go back to his room upstairs.

However, the next moment, his arm was firmly grasped by Kosaka Kirino, making him make a confused sound.

"Is it reasonable to run away after winning? Is this really reasonable? Keep going, I will never give up just like that. Kanako came here just to extend the time. I must show you victory today." Many times in a row Being at the bottom of the draw card seemed to make Kosaka Kirino extremely angry. She ignored Kosaka Yuri's request to retreat and forcibly retained him.

"Are you serious? Hmm... Just think it's okay, friends over there. What do you think?" Judging from the current trend, Kosaka Yuri couldn't see the possibility of Kosaka Kirino's victory, and voluntarily quit, "I don't care. Well, as long as you have something to do, what the hell do you call your friends? I am Kanako, Kurusu Kanako. Since I am Kirino’s older brother, you are specifically allowed to call me Kanako... By the way, Kirino, are you okay? , won’t he turn into a big black face at the end?” Kanako Kurusu has no doubts about joining the ranks of drawing ghost cards.

But she wasn't sure whether Kirino Kosaka's choice to prevent her brother from leaving was the right one, because the graffiti on his face was already exaggerated, and he might not have room to draw anything after a while. Judging from the dialogue, it was all about herself. My brother painted it.

"Of course not, now is the time for me to fight back!" Kanako Kurusu felt that Kirino Takasaka was dead, but Kirino herself felt good about herself. Just from the tone of her voice, people who didn't know would think that Kirino Takasaka was dead. He's the one with the winning streak.

There is a feeling of overwhelming confidence, and I don’t know where this confidence comes from.

It's just that there is no way to turn self-confidence into strength. No matter how high Kousaka Kirino's self-confidence is, she will still be able to do it very quickly when it's time to do it.

Chapter 278 Removing Graffiti

"Hey, Kirino, come here a little bit, um... it's a bit hard to wipe off." "So I said, Kirino, you will turn into a big black face." "Damn it, why didn't you do it even once?

Let that guy be the last. "Kosaka Kirino worked hard, really tried hard. Unfortunately, until there was nothing left to draw on her face, Kosaka Yuri was still a brand new product.

Kazuya Aragaki Ayase on the side showed signs of defeat, but the total losses of all of them were not as much as Kirino Kousaka's, which was quite strange.

Because the whole process was random, Kosaka Yuri did not win completely in the end.

But only the face of the last one will be graffitied. Although he has indeed been not first, he has never been last.

This made Kosaka Kirino tired after persisting for a long time and trying to win a victory from Kosaka Yuri.

"Your brother is really amazing. He can actually use such a standard poker face when playing ghost cards. Surrender, surrender. I can't read his expression at all." Ayase Aragaki helped Kosaka Kirino wipe his face. When applying black paint, Kanako Kurusu also wiped off a few streaks on her face in front of the mirror.

There are two lines on her face, one was drawn by Ayase Aragaki after her victory, which is an ordinary cross, and the other was drawn by Yuri Kosaka, which is a simple old seal.

However, no one else seemed to recognize him, or at least there was no reaction when they saw it. This gave Yuri Kosaka a subtle sense of frustration that he had been tricked but no one was aware of it.

"There was clearly a chance of victory in the ninth game... Damn it, if I had given him a little more time, I would have definitely carved something on his face." "It looks like there is, but there is absolutely no... Second I discovered at the beginning of the game that your brother never looked at our reactions when drawing cards. He drew one card completely randomly, just like that kind of automatic machine." "So this is the place where you can find the possibility of victory!" " A master of ghost cards may be able to do it, but you can't, Kirino. Turn your face again." "Is that so? Hmm, it's a bit itchy." "Just bear with it for a while. You should be glad that it's easier to wipe off. Ink." Although the ink marks on Kirino Kosaka's face are heavy, the ink itself is not difficult to remove, but is relatively easy to clean.

So after Ayase Aragaki wiped it around, most of the ink was absorbed by the towel. When the towel changed color, most of Kirino's face recovered.

But after all, I have been graffitiing on my face for a while, and there are always marks left in some places, which need to be wiped away for a while.

"Speaking of which, Kirino's house has a lot of strange decorations." "Strange decorations?" After wiping the marks on her face in the mirror, Kanako Kurusu said casually as if she was just passing the time while looking at people still fussing around.

This made Kosaka Kirino a little strange, not knowing what the other party was talking about.

"That weird plaster head in the living room. Your family has really weird tastes." "That...that guy Kyosuke put up before. I was also surprised when I saw it for the first time. It's surprising." Taste that cannot be evaluated." "Who is Kyousuke?" "Ah, sorry, Kyousuke is my brother's nickname. That guy changed his name a long time ago and occasionally calls him back to this name." "Did he change his name after the manga series started?" "That's not true. It happened a long time before the manga was serialized... Wait, Kanako, how did you know that Yuri is a manga artist?" When Kanako Kurusu started talking, Kirino Kosaka didn't actually react.

But while chatting, I suddenly felt something was wrong, because Ayase Aragaki already knew that Yuri Kosaka was a manga artist, but she never mentioned it to Kanako Kurusu.

"I still need to ask. Even I know the cartoonist Yuri is a very popular cartoonist. When I heard your brother's name was Yuri, I guessed it might be him." "Normally, you can't think of it, right?" "Maybe it is. Because my sister is also a cartoonist. Although she is not as famous as your brother, it still feels like this." "Wait, wait, Kanako, your sister is a cartoonist?! This is the first time I heard about it. Come on." Kousaka Kirino's surprise was not fake, because this was the first time she had heard from Kanako Kirisu. After all, they rarely talked about family matters when chatting.

"Of course it's the first time. It's the first time I've told anyone this. Besides, there's usually nothing to say about this kind of thing. People in the class will definitely make a fuss when they find out." "Eh~~ Surprisingly, Kanako is usually completely It looks like you look down on such things." Aragaki Ayase was also a little surprised, because Kurusu Kanako usually looked down on otakus and never took the initiative to read otaku stuff. She didn't expect that her sister would be a manga artist. .

"That's what work is about. Even if you don't like it, you can do it as long as you can earn a living. So Kanako, I must find a very easy job and make a lot of money in the future." "No, this world is not like that. It's easy." "Huh? Isn't your modeling job very easy? Just watch, when I become famous, I can easily get a lot of money every day like you." "Models don't Kanako, you think it's so easy, but it's actually surprisingly tiring when you go out to shoot." "But compared to others, it's really easy... But that's right, if you win the lottery now, Kanako doesn't have to work hard. That's right, let's go buy lottery tickets

The tickets are ready. ""Stop daydreaming. When it's almost done, go out. "The possibility is obviously quite high... Oh, by the way, as beautiful girls, we can't stay in the bathroom for a long time." "Because Yuri Kosaka's face was pure white without any damage from the battle, they were the only three who entered the bathroom.

Then Kanako Kurusu realized that they had actually been here for a while and felt like they could go out.

"Yes, the stain on Kirino's face has almost been wiped off." "But it should be nothing after that. There is no way there will be another round of ghost cards." "Let's go to Kirino's room to chat. I'll talk to Kirino. I'm quite curious about the room." "Me too, me too." "Hey~~ It doesn't matter if I go, but as I said before, this is not a real house, and you will be disappointed." Although Kousaka Kirino felt that this place It's not a real family, so it doesn't make much sense to visit, but the two people next to me don't think so.

Or maybe they just wanted to find a place to rest and chat for a while, and the bathroom was really not a suitable place.

But the next time is obviously girls' time and has nothing to do with Yuri Kosaka outside.

Chapter 279 Old Pocket Watch

After a busy weekend, Yuri Kosaka sorted out the royalties that the magazine had transferred to his card this month, and realized that he could almost give the dividends from the first issue of Steins;Gate to the people in the lab.

After all, the Steins;Gate animation has now reached its tenth episode, and the standalone book has been released before.

Although the sales volume in the first month was not very large due to the mediocre plot, and the royalties were only a small amount, it should be regarded as a considerable capital injection for the strapped lab.

So on Wednesday afternoon, he went to the bank to withdraw the royalties for Steins;Gate, and went to the lab to hand it over to Rintaro Okabe.

By the way, Kousaka Kirino ran away and went back to Minoru's house on Sunday night.

There was no way, it didn't matter that the day after Friday and Saturday was a day off, but the day after Sunday was Monday, so he needed to go to school, and the school Kousaka Kirino attended was in Chiba, where Minoru's family was.

She had no choice but to go back, otherwise she would have to wake up in the house where she currently lives on Monday morning, and then find that it would take more than an hour to go back, and two hours to go to school, and then she would be shockingly late for the school performance.

"Huh? Yuri, it's quite rare to see you in these days..." When we arrived at the entrance of the lab, Tennoji Yugo, the manager of the imaging management room below, was rummaging around for something unknown. Some sundries were buried under Pile on top.

He happened to stretch when Yuri Kosaka came over, and said hello casually after seeing him.

"You're talking like I'm some kind of goblin who appears on a specific day." "It doesn't make any difference, that Okabe guy's words are now on top." "Then I went up, oh, by the way, what you are saying now is Are you here?" "Arranging things, and I feel like a few blank video tapes are lost... I think they were lost, but maybe they were taken away by that guy from Hashida." Tennoji Yugo himself wasn't sure, either. Because this is a relatively insignificant thing, it is possible that he threw it aside at some point.

"Then work hard... Oh, by the way, this is for you." "Hey, this is... cash? What do you mean?" Kosaka Yuri took out almost ten dollars from the cash he had taken out before. The five pieces of Yuji made Tennoji Yugo frown, and he couldn't figure out why the other party handed over the money.

"For the Steins;Gate comic fee, I think I've said it before. If you transfer the image to me, I'll pay the image fee. That's it." "Ah, that, take it, take it, take it. Who am I? I don’t need this kind of money. If you give it to me, you might as well give it to that idiot Okabe. Maybe you can change his stingy character." "Of course I want to give it to Ji Zhen, But you, the store manager, have to ask for it... Don't tell Miss Moe, she definitely needs her words." Seeing Yugo Tennoji's unwillingness to accept it, Yuri Kosaka thought for a while and said it to Moe Kiryu. Yu, this made Tennoji Yugo stunned for a moment, and he thought it was okay.

After all, just because Tennoji Yugo is not short of money doesn't mean that others are not short of money, especially the Kiryu Moeku who works for him.

You must know that when she first came here with Yugo Tennoji, all she owned were her clothes and the mobile phone that never left her hand.

If Tennoji Yugo hadn't arranged a place for him to live, he might have been sleeping on the street.

"That guy, ugh..." So after hearing Kosaka Yuri mention Kiryu Moe, Tennoji Yugo didn't say anything else. He didn't take away the few Fukuzawa Yukichi placed on the table and continued working. It's my own business.

As for the money on it, he didn't care about it for now. If Kiryu Moeki was willing to accept it after she arrived, he would let her take it. If she didn't want it, he was going to put it back into Yuri Kosaka's pocket.

'Click' After finishing the following matters, Kosaka Yuri walked up the stairs with ease and opened the door of the lab.

"Ah, Dudulu, good afternoon, Yuri-shi." "Good afternoon, Mayu-shi. Here's Jiuzhen. The store manager down there said he's here." "Look at what Okaren said..."

Looking in the direction that Mayuri Shiina pointed, Kosaka Yuri discovered that not only Okabe Rintaro was there, but Hashida Yu was also there.

But when he first came in, if he looked in the direction of Yuri Kosaka, both of them were blocked by the curtains behind the living room, so they couldn't see clearly.

It's just that at this time, the two of them were gathering around the table at the back with serious faces, and they had no intention of talking to Yuri Kosaka.

In front of them, there was a pocket watch with its outermost shell removed, and the contents inside were displayed in front of them without any protection.

It seems that it's not that they don't want to answer, but that they have no experience answering.

"Damn it, why won't it move? Why!" "It's completely dead. Alas, repairing this kind of machinery is not my strong point." There are not many parts of the pocket watch that have been disassembled, but the only remaining parts can be seen. The complexity of each structure.

But compared to the complex structure, the completely stagnant pendulum is the most troublesome point.

I don't know what went wrong inside, and there was no trace of any movement at all.

"Are you here?" "You'll understand if you see it. We're repairing pocket watches." "I'm sorry, Yuri, you saw it. It's not that we don't want to talk to you, it's just that we really can't talk to you. This is better than what we thought. It's much more troublesome." Since there was little progress in the repair work, Okabe Rintaro seemed to want to use a screwdriver to unscrew the remaining parts of the pocket watch.

However, this move was stopped by Hashida Zhi, who felt that Okabe Rintaro had gone too far.

It's easy to take this thing apart, but it's very troublesome to put it back together later. Normally, no one would take it apart at once.

"Then why don't you just buy Mayuri a new pocket watch?" "You, it's the first day you know that lab's finances are not good. How can lab have the luxury to replace Mayuri's pocket watch?" "Ah... ..." Maybe it was because of his excitement, or maybe it was a problem with the design itself. Before Okabe Rintaro could finish speaking, a small gear in his pocket watch popped out.

This made Okabe Rintaro and Hashida Zhi look at each other, not knowing how to react.

"It's completely scrapped. This is... Oh, by the way, the sales volume of the Steins;Gate single volume came out last month. You know what this means, right." "What does it mean?" "It means that I promised it in the first place. Your portrait fee is finally settled." "Huh?" After more than two months of delay, Okabe Rintaro almost forgot that there was such a thing. He was stunned when he heard it and realized that Yuri Kosaka The meaning behind the words.

Chapter 280 Giving Too Much

"That's what you said, that's what I thought." Okabe Rintaro looked a little unbelievable.

The main reason is that he is not sure when the magazine will release the single volume, nor is he sure when the royalties are paid.

He only mentioned it a few times at the beginning. At that time, Kosaka Yuri always said that the amount was very small and not expensive enough for the meals he brought.

Later, I felt that it didn't matter anymore. Anyway, I could have one meal a week for nothing, so it wasn't unacceptable.

Now that he suddenly heard that he was really rich, he was shocked.

"Of course, there is no need to lie to you about this kind of thing. By the way, you haven't paid attention to the manga version of Steins;Gate. It was released in the middle of last month." "Although I have tried to read it, the manga version is faster than the animation. The version should be a little slower. I didn’t pay much attention to it after I read it twice at first.” The response to Steins;Gate’s manga can only be described as mediocre. Although a standalone volume was released last month, it’s really thanks to The animated version of "Relationship" is currently being broadcast on TV simultaneously.

So far, at least so far, the plots of animation and comics are relatively not that.........exciting.

Although there are a few people who think it's okay and look forward to the follow-up development, most people still watch it casually.

I can’t say that Steins;Gate is not good, I can only say that it is a decent work among recent dramas.

Therefore, many people on the Internet feel that Yuri has spent too much energy on dual-player, and the level of his works has dropped a lot.

He expressed his hope that it would not affect Haruhi Suzumiya.

"Ah, it seems that it is indeed on sale. I saw it when I went to Toranoden a few days ago, but the popularity is very average. I saw that the new issue seems to have not been sold out..." Okabe Rintaro doesn't go to those comic shops very often, but Hashida Zhi, who often goes there, does have the impression of seeing the manga version of Steins;Gate.

But to be honest, the popularity of Steins;Gate comics is quite subtle. You can’t say that he is not popular at all, but to say that he is popular is unrealistic. It feels like he is half-dead on the cabinet and serves as the background version of a popular comic.
