Chapter 984 Now is the time for a late drink
While Yamauchi Sakura and Eriri were playing, Kasumigaoka Utaha also came home. The little golden retriever left the sofa without saying a word and watched the black-haired, red-eyed enchantress put her long legs wrapped in black stockings on the armrest of the sofa.
Goodbye, hope of growing taller; Goodbye, my dear couch; Goodbye…
But you must remember that I love you.
When that woman, Kasumigaoka Utaha, is no longer around, I will come back to be with you as soon as possible. I believe that our love will not fade because of her.
For the first time, a faint sadness arose in the heart of this heartless girl.
Hugging her knees, Eriri sat on the carpet next to the short sofa, secretly glancing at the long sofa out of the corner of her eye.
So what if she's suitable? What I want is her to make my legs look longer!
In a state of confusion, the furry puppy came over again.
"Oh my dear friend, what's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"
Momotaro shouted this, but received no response at all. The princess was thinking about how to rescue the sofa from under the legs of the witch.
Ah! Why hasn't Kyosuke come back yet? Hurry up and take Kasumigaoka away!
Momotaro, who had been alone in the empty room for a whole day, already missed his family. When he saw Eriri's pitiful appearance like a drowned puppy, he immediately felt pity for her. He stuck out his tongue and walked up to his best friend and started to chatter in her face.
“Eh——!!”
Eriri's face was covered with saliva in an instant and she immediately shouted in disgust:
"Tao! Tai! Lang!!"
She grabbed the puppy under the arms (?) with both hands and picked it up, then turned her head to the direction of the couch and yelled:
"Kasumigaoka Utaha!! Look at your dog!"
The black-haired girl who was lying leisurely on the sofa didn't even look over here, and continued to flip through the notebook she brought back from the publishing house.
Dog? What dog? Who? I don't know.
The toes in the black stockings moved.
Ah, I really want to take off my socks, but then Kyosuke won’t be able to see my perfect legs when he comes back.
Just bear with it~
Eriri was furious and had no place to vent her anger, so she turned her head and looked at the little thing in her hand.
I saw Momotaro's pair of black eyes full of innocence and attachment, his pink tongue was still wagging, his four short legs kept struggling, and he still looked like he wanted to come over and kiss me.
Eh……
I wish Kyosuke was like this too.
Thinking of this, Eriri got even angrier. Even Kyosuke has never spit on my face!
The man put the puppy on the ground and pinned it down, then the man and the dog started arguing.
Kasumigaoka, who was standing next to them, was having a headache because of the noise. She poked Yamauchi Sakura with her foot from a distance, signaling her to deal with it quickly.
Someone who was watching happily pursed his lips, shrugged, sat up straight and said:
"Eri-ri~"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Eriri pressed Momotaro with one hand and turned his head.
Yamauchi Sakura twisted her butt and slid down from the sofa, squatting side by side with Eriri.
She stroked Momotaro's little head and said with a smile:
"My mother once told me that puppies, like children, need to be taught."
"Ok?"
Ying Lili blinked her eyes, savored the words on her tongue twice, and was immediately deeply touched.
I had a lot of fun today, even though I was framed by Kasumigaoka's conspiracy and later I called Kyousuke and talked about a lot of messy things, but I haven't seen him for a whole day...
Anyway, to put it simply... I miss you!
Momotaro is alone at home today, and he must be missing me too.
Thinking of this, Eriri turned her head to look at the furry puppy and said seriously:
"Momotaro, you're so lucky! Today I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
With a lot of blah blah, in the confused look of Momotaro, Eriri started the small class.
"You are young now, I will tolerate you, and you must repay me well when you grow up."
As she said this, she nodded repeatedly as if she was possessed by Sakura, probably because she thought what she said was very sophisticated.
Then the girl thought that she must repay her parents in the future.
Just... recruit them all into "Carbonate", and then urge them to complete their work tasks quickly every day, so that they can also feel the joy of jumping on the deadline.
I was able to understand this truth so easily, which shows that I am smart and wise.
As for how much this is, it’s probably... this much (stretch out both hands as if hugging a tree).
In short, it’s very smart!
Yamauchi Sakura looked at the man and the dog with gentle eyes. These words were not taught to Mikiko by her mother, but by her biological mother.
Yamauchi's mother is a traditional woman. She is not as lively as Aunt Mikiko. Her personality may be even gentler than that of Nitro-chan. Because she has not experienced many bad things, she is not strong and she especially likes to cry.
When Sakura was in junior high school and living in the school dormitory, she liked to call home and share what happened in school with her mother. But she stopped doing that in high school because every time she called, her mother's voice was always nasal.
It's a forced smile while suppressing emotions.
Ah...it turns out that I have become one of the bad things that forced my mother to "grow up", just like the bad things that Nitro-chan encountered.
Seeing Eriri stroking Momotaro's head, Sakura reached out and touched Eriri's head, her eyes as gentle as water.
On the edge of the courtyard near the living room, Xueye Baixiangli was leaning against the door, looking at the two people and the dog with a faint smile on her lips.
Isn't Eriri being taught by Sakura just like Momotaro? It's really a child and a puppy.
After a while, Hojo Kyosuke came back.
Momotaro, who was dizzy from the training, struggled to escape from Eriri's clutches as soon as he heard the sound of a car at the door. He swore that he would never be friends with this idiot again!
Zhizhizhizhi——
The stupid puppy jumped down the hallway, stood up and scratched the door. It couldn't wait to complain to Aniki!
At any other time, Eriri would probably yell at Momotaro not to grab the door, but now that she has "realized", she can empathize with Momotaro because she not only wants to grab the door, she wants to just rush out and jump up to hug someone.
Why do I miss you so much?
Why did I say before that I would let Kyousuke pick up Nitro-chan? Really, I can't figure it out.
Hojo Kyosuke walked into the door followed by a company driver, both of them holding something like a birdcage in their hands.
Eriri, who had already rushed to the entrance, retracted her excited shout, and when she saw a stranger, she changed her form in a second.
Kasumigaoka, who was lying on the sofa in the back, was secretly resentful because Eriri was blocking her view, which meant that Kyosuke would not be able to see her own black silk feet the first time he entered the room!
Hate! This damn scheming woman!
"I'm back~"
Hojo Kyosuke shouted, then raised his hand and gestured with a smile.
"what is this?"
Eriri asked.
"Roast duck, Peking duck."
As he spoke, Hojo Kyosuke placed a birdcage-like box on the floor of the entrance, and then took the birdcage handed to him by the driver behind him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Araki. Drive carefully on the way back."
The driver outside the door took a step back, said, "You've worked hard," then bowed and walked outside.
As soon as the stranger left, Eriri seemed to come alive instantly. She squatted down and started studying the "Peking Duck" with Momotaro.
"Why is there no taste at all?"
Ying Lili wrinkled her nose and took a deep breath.
“Ah, this thing has a very good seal.”
Speaking of this, Hojo Kyosuke himself was also surprised. Forgive his lack of knowledge, but the Japanese are really good at sense of ritual.
Normally cold rice and cold dishes are considered high-end products, but this roast duck takeout actually has a specially customized takeout box.
This birdcage-like box has built-in heating tubes that look like little suns, which keep the roast duck inside at the right temperature, ensuring that the roast duck remains as freshly-baked as possible while the guests enjoy it.
The delivery man was skilled in the technique of peeling the skin if necessary, but Hojo Kyosuke refused.
He brought the birdcage to the dining table and opened it. He saw the four sides of the box falling down like petals unfolding. The red light slowly went out, and it looked like a weapon in a science fiction movie.
The top and the bottom are connected together by a bracket, and a whole golden and shiny roast duck is hung leisurely on the bracket.
The fragrant aroma filled the air, even Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was still lying on the sofa, was attracted and sat up. She hadn't eaten yet, so she saved her stomach for when she came back to eat with Kyosuke.
Ying Lili swallowed her saliva, pointed at the roast duck and asked, "How do I eat this? Should I just hold it and chew it?"
This looks so delicious!
Roast duck is not completely extinct in Neon. Some Chinese restaurants still sell it, and the most "authentic" ones are those that only eat the skin and not the meat.
"Of course not, go over there and get ready for a delicious meal."
Hojo Kyosuke smiled and walked into the kitchen with the roast duck. When he saw Yukino coming over to help, he glared at him and said, "Sit down, too!"
With his knife skills, even if they are not as good as the butchering of an ox as Bao Ding, they are not much different. If there is any difference, it is because he knows too little about the ox body. If it is the butchering of a human, it is almost the same.
At the counter by the kitchen window, Eriri, Kasumigaoka, Sakura, and Yukino were all ready. In front of each of them was a plate with wraps, green onions and other condiments on the side. Sakura was explaining to them how to eat it.
Hojo Kyosuke didn't even wear gloves. With his skills, he didn't have to worry about getting his hands dirty, and he didn't need to fix the roast duck.
Although the Japanese samurai sword is a sword, it is not used like an ordinary sword to "chop" straight down, but to "drag and cut" in a parabolic trajectory, so kendo pays special attention to the "sword tendons".
To put it simply, it is like cutting paper with a paper cutter. The paper cutter needs to be dragged backwards continuously to cut.
This is the case when slicing roast duck. With the sharp knife and flawless cut edges, the roast duck doesn't even shake when Hojo Kyosuke is cutting it.
When Eriri was forced to accompany her parents to enjoy "high-end Japanese food" on weekdays, she felt that the chefs preparing the dishes on the spot were just too fancy and used a lot of useless movements to do a lot of useless things.
But watching the boy in front of me holding the knife handle with one hand and using the other hand to cut the roast duck, listening to the wonderful sound of the blade cutting through the crispy roast duck skin, and then eating the "roll" with many ingredients in one bite...
Cooking is indeed an art, the girl thought sincerely.
It's a bit annoying that after eating a piece, I have to wait for Kyosuke to feed Sakura and the others before coming back, but it's okay because it's quite interesting to see Kasumigaoka's face full of enjoyment after eating the roast duck.
snort!
Ah! Great! Great!
I eat, eat, eat!
The skin of the roast duck was eaten up very quickly, and during this time, Ying Lili asked for a whole duck leg.
Although it was such a greasy food, even Kasumigaoka, who was most concerned about her figure, couldn't help but let Hojo Kyosuke have another one.
After finishing their meal, the two of them drank Coke to relieve their greasiness. I have to say, Ying Lili has some taste.
After seeing that everyone was satisfied, Hojo Kyosuke began to clean up the remaining duck meat. He simply cut it into pieces and put it all into the pan. Crispy duck is the best dish to go with wine in the world.
With tacit understanding, Xueye Baixiangli had already put two beer glasses into the freezer for emergency cooling. The temperature of the beer glasses is also crucial when drinking beer!
By the time Hojo Kyosuke brought two plates of fragrant crispy duck to the bar, Yukino had already poured two glasses of beer with thick foam.
Next, he and Xue Ye had a leisurely evening drink together, just like a family~
"What a nice smell! This one is even better than the last one! So delicious! Ah, I shouldn't have eaten that leg! It tastes even better after it's fried!"
"Woohoo! It's so delicious! Kyosuke, pour me another cup of Coke!"
"Yakura! You can try it too, this one is invincible!"
"Kasumigaoka? Don't even think about beating me in figure at this time. You lose weight just to enjoy this kind of food, you know! And no matter how much you lose weight, you can't be as slim as me!"
"Eat! Momotaro, you have to eat it too! No, this has bones, puppies can't eat it, you will die!"
"Kacha——"
"What?! He can even chew the bones into pieces. They taste even better!"
"嘤嘤嘤!"
"No no no, Momotaro you still can't eat it, because I want to eat the bones!"
A blond idiot sat at the bar, stuffing food into his mouth with both hands.
Eriri, who was already slumped on the sofa and about to start enjoying her wonderful fat otaku time, was attracted by the smell and returned to the dining table with an action that was 100% in line with a comedian.
Yukino Baixiang looked at the idiot helplessly, with a doting smile on her face, she poured a cup of Coke and gently pushed it in front of Eriri. The latter grinned, with red food residue on her lips.
Hojo Kyosuke moved a high stool and sat next to Yukino. He picked up his beer and was about to drink it when he heard Yamauchi Sakura say:
"Kyosuke, drink less. Don't forget that you have to go get the nitre sauce later."
"Um?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Eriri, who was eating heartily, suddenly stiffened and turned to look at Yamauchi Sakura in disbelief.
"Mmmmmm! Mmmmm!"
Well, her mouth was full.
Wasn't it agreed that Kyosuke, a boy, was also dangerous?
Speak up for me! Who will speak up for me? You bully me all day long! (End of this chapter)
