Chapter 58

The next day, Saki was waiting for Inumaki Tsuchiya at home.

She was thinking about whether to prepare some gifts for Goujuanji's good friends...but she didn't know them well, and she had only seen a panda last time.

Is that a panda? Or is it just a person in a doll costume?

But it's very unique! Just like Inugami's tattoo.

However, you still have to ask Inujuan Ji about gifts, after all, he should know his friends' preferences better.

After a while, the phone vibrated.

[Tuna rice balls are the best]: Here we are.

When she saw the message, Saki immediately got up and opened the door for Inuma.

The weather is very good today. When I opened the door, the sunlight outside shone directly in.

Goujuanji stood at the door with his eyes slightly lowered, looking at his phone, waiting patiently.

When he noticed the movement in front of him, he subconsciously raised his eyes to look over. His gaze softened when it met Saki's, and he slightly curved his eyes: "Kelp."

Saki was so happy that she rushed forward, but Inumaki Saki had anticipated this and stretched out his arms to catch her.

He stood firmly, not being forced back or stumbling at all by Saki's momentum.

Saki snuggled into his arms and gave Inumaki a big hug with a smile.

She rubbed it.

Maybe it was because of the sun on the road, or maybe it was because it was summer, but Goujuanji was very hot.

It's not just the kind of heat that comes from a very high body temperature, it also feels like the sun!

Saki sniffed at his shoulder.

Goujuanji subconsciously stiffened.

But he had no mission today, his clothes were new, and he came here in the auxiliary supervisor's car, so... there wouldn't be any big problems.

Then I slowly relaxed again.

Saki said seriously, "It smells like sunshine."

The dog's ears turned red: "Wooden fish flower."

Saki smiled and said, "Come in first."

Inujuan Ji nodded.

After entering the room, Saki showed him the new clothes she had changed into today, "Do you think they look good?"

The dog's ears turned red and he said in a very supportive tone: "Salmon, salmon."

Saki: "Even though it's a school tour, it feels almost like a date."

Goujuanji curved his eyes and said, "Salmon."

Saki: "By the way, does Tsutomu have any good friends at school? I'm thinking about getting some gifts."

Inujuanji blinked and said, "Muyuhua."

At present, the only classmates he is familiar with in school are Maki and Panda, so there is no need to prepare special gifts.

Saki: "Oh, is that so? Is that okay?"

Inujuanji nodded: "Salmon."

Saki: "Okay! Then there's nothing else to prepare, we can go. So how do we get there? The subway?"

Goujuanji typed: [I have a car.]

Saki was completely shocked. "What do you mean you drove here? Wait, does Tsutomu have a driver's license?"

Inujuki realized that she had misunderstood and quickly shook his head: "Muyuhua, Muyuhua."

It is auxiliary supervision.

Saki touched her chin and said, "Oh..."

Another unfamiliar word.

But she didn't worry too much about it. As long as there was a solution, it was fine.

After locking the door, Saki followed Inumaki Satoru to a car.

Inumaki opened the back door and motioned for Saki to get in.

Saki was a little bit socially anxious, "Hello, excuse me for disturbing you."

Sitting in the front row was an older woman in a suit. Upon hearing this, she looked up and exchanged glances with Saki in the rearview mirror, then gave a gentle smile: "Hello."

Saki breathed a sigh of relief.

After Gojuan Ji also got in, the vehicle started slowly.

Because there was someone she didn't know, and she looked a bit like... um, a colleague of Inumaki Saki's? Anyway, Saki was a bit shy and didn't feel comfortable talking openly about love.

She didn't look around, but just moved her hand beside her quietly around.

Inujuki was stunned for a moment, then held Saki's hand.

The two people took advantage of the fact that this was a blind spot for the driver in front and held hands openly.

Saki blinked, pretended not to care, turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window, but in fact her fingers touched Inumaki's hand, and then rubbed it on the other's palm.

Goujuanji's hand stiffened for a moment, and he subconsciously curled up, but soon let go with indulgence.

Saki couldn't help but curl her eyes and raise the corners of her lips.

Then she realized...even though they couldn't speak, they could still communicate!

She meant communication methods other than mobile phones.

That means writing on the palm of your hand!

You draw and I guess.

Saki became interested.

Then her fingertips began to move.

Noticing Saki's actions, Inumaki Ji subconsciously looked over.

However, he quickly understood what Saki meant, so he waited patiently.

What Saki wrote was: [How far is it from here to school? ]

After she finished writing, she stopped.

Next, it was Gojuanji.

He replied: [If there is no traffic jam, half an hour.]

Saki:!

He looked...ah, it wasn't right. He listened...it wasn't right either. Anyway, he understood!

Then came the surprise.

What? It's so far away? It feels very remote.

But if you think about it, it's normal.

After all, Saki didn't find any religious schools, so she thought they must be very remote and probably about to move out of Tokyo.

Saki: [How is Tsutomu's school? ]

Inumaki Ji: [Not bad...? ]

Why do you look so uncertain?

And he even specifically pointed out the six dots of the ellipsis!

Ha ha ha ha.

All in all, this is a very good way of communication, and it is also very interesting, very suitable for these young couples!

Originally, Saki had planned to check her phone while riding in the car, but now she was in no mood for it at all.

Maybe, this is love ww.

After that, they started chatting about some very childish topics in a "you draw, I guess" format.

For example—

【Do you like eating Zongzi? 】

【like. 】

Sweet or salty?

[Salty...right?]

【Heresy! 】

【! 】

The dog Juanji who is drawing an exclamation mark seriously is so cute!

Because the departure time was very suitable, there was no particular traffic jam on the road.

Saki looked out the car window at the scenery outside which was becoming increasingly distant, and couldn't help but look over there curiously.

After more than half an hour, the car stopped.

Saki: [Yes...]

Halfway through writing, she realized, how stupid.

So she coughed lightly and asked directly: "Are we there yet?"

Inujuanji nodded: "Salmon."

After realizing that Saki didn't intend to continue writing, he held Saki's hand again.

Saki: "Then get off?"

Inumaki Ji nodded, opened a side door, and then got out with Saki.

The assistant supervisor left after dropping them off.

Saki: "I'm so excited! I wonder what Tsutomu's school will be like..."

Saki paused.

She slowly looked up and saw the long staircase in front of her.

And the torii gate at the stairs.

And the dense green forest next to it.

Help, help, help, help!

Are you serious about this long stone staircase? ! !

Do students have to pass this every day on their way to and from school?

No way!!

No wonder Inugamiji has such great stamina, it turns out he's been through some serious training!!

Saki was completely stunned.

She pointed ahead tremblingly: "So, we are going to climb up?"

Inujuanji nodded: "Salmon."

Saki swallowed and suddenly felt like falling asleep.

She pressed her forehead: "What should I do? I suddenly feel dizzy."

Inujuki's eyes widened slightly, and he reached out and touched Saki's forehead with some worry: "Dajie?"

Saki grabbed his hand and threw herself into Inumaki's arms.

Inumaji hugged her and stroked Saki's hair, "Okabe?"

Saki said weakly: "It's not a question of whether it's big or small... or I'm not sick, it's just that -"

She pinched her philtrum: "Do we have to climb up?"

Goujuanji blinked, then pursed his lips and smiled.

Saki: "! You're still laughing!"

Inujuan Ji curved his eyes, then pointed at himself: "Tuna mayonnaise, Takadani."

Saki tilted her head.

Can't understand.

Goujuanji let go of Zaoji and then squatted down.

This Zaoji was familiar, and it meant that he wanted to carry her on his back.

but……

Saki: "No, no no no, we can't climb stairs this high!"

Obviously not.

And it's so hot.

Although there is green shade nearby, it still doesn’t work!

Even Hiraji Saki would agree, but this involves going up stairs.

Dog Roll Thorn: "Wooden fish flower, big mustard."

Then he took out his phone and typed: [Not tired.]

Saki: “…I’m not stupid!”

How can I not be tired?

Inugami Ji: [The sorcerer has great physical strength! ]

Saki: ...

This seems to be the case?

She thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll walk by myself first, and then you can help me when I can't walk anymore."

Gojuan Ji nodded.

Looking at the stairs, Saki couldn't help but sigh.

I always feel that it reminds her of the pain of running.

She took Inumaki's hand and leaned against him, "Okay, let's go!"

However, this staircase is not very shaky, and if you just walk slowly, you won’t be too tired.

When they were halfway there, Saki couldn't help but stop and cry.

Gou Juanji touched her head and said, "Dajie, Dajie."

Unable to resist the urge to seek comfort, Saki reached out her hand.

Goujuanji hugged her.

Stayed quietly for a while.

Then Goujuanji walked to the front and squatted down.

He turned around and looked at me: "Gao Cai."

Maybe it means to let her go.

Saki moved over and lay on Inujuki's back, "I'm really tired."

Dog Roll: "Salmon, salmon."

Saki nuzzled his shoulder and said, "My legs are sore."

Inujuanji moved his head, rubbed it towards Saki, and then narrowed his eyes: "Muyuhua."

Saki was coaxed back to spirits by Inumaki Ji.

She raised her arms: "Okay, let's go!"

Dog Roll: "Salmon!"

Saki couldn't help but chuckle.

Without having to accompany Saki to climb the stairs, Inumaki Saki's speed was obviously much faster.

And he didn't feel tired at all even when carrying someone on his back.

Without blushing or panting!

Super awesome.

By the way, Goujuanji was wearing a mask when he went out today.

Saki helped him take off his mask.

"It will make breathing easier this way."

Inujuan Ji nodded.

When they reached the top, before Zaoji could come down, they ran into an acquaintance.

The white-haired teacher in a black uniform and bandages bent over and looked over, a playful smile on his face, a cell phone in his hand.

"Oh my."

Saki:!!!
