Chapter 518: Obasan
After hanging up the call, Yushan Kazuto put away his phone. Suddenly, Yushan Kazuto's eyes focused on the phone and a smile appeared on his face.
He seemed to have found a suitable reason to fool Shirasaki Hana and Doma Mai.
……
"Brother Kazuto, why did you take so long to talk on the phone?" Shirasaki Hana couldn't help but ask when she saw Kazuto Yushan walking out of the room.
During the conversation between Kazuto Hayama and Koichiro Yuki, not only did he briefly explain his visit to the Shinomiya family, he also asked some questions about Nobuyuki Sugo. The conversation lasted about seven or eight minutes in total, which was indeed a long time.
"The call just now was from abroad. It's the new phone Xiaohua gave me. While making the call, I also tested the signal quality for cross-border calls. It's quite stable." Yushan Heren smiled.
Toumori Sanae looked at Hayama Kazuto, wondering why Hayama Kazuto suddenly mentioned the cell phone. However, based on her understanding of Hayama Kazuto, Hayama Kazuto was not the kind of person who would speak without a purpose, and he must have some purpose for saying such things.
"Is that so?" Baisakihua said shyly.
What she didn't know was that the cell phone she gave to Kazuto Yushan had already been given to Kaguya Shinomiya by Kazuto Yushan, and the one Kazuto Yushan was using now was actually the one he bought later.
Yushan Kazuto nodded and continued, "Sanae is angry because of my changing my phone."
"Why are you angry about changing your phone?" Shirosaki Hana was a little confused, and Doma Mai also shifted her gaze, a little suspicious.
Although Toumori Sanae felt a little strange in her heart, at least she did not sabotage Yushan Kazuto and just kept her head down.
Seeing Toumori Sanae's reaction, Yushan Kazuto breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Didn't a lot of people call me last night? I felt a little annoyed, so I turned on the do not disturb mode."
"Because it's a new phone, Sanae's number is not saved, so Sanae couldn't call her, so she was sulking." Yushan Kazuto said.
"Is that so?" Doma looked at Touma Sanae, as if she wanted to find out the whole story from Touma Sanae's expression.
Toumori Sanae just lowered her head and nodded: "Yeah, that's it."
"You've been sulking for the whole day because you didn't get through on the call?" Shirosaki Hana looked at Toumori Sanae, feeling a little unbelievable.
But Shirasaki Hana didn't think so much and said, "Sanae-sister, you are so stingy."
Toumori Sanae just took a mouthful of rice and almost choked, and couldn't help coughing.
These few coughs seemed to further verify what Shirasaki Hana said, that unnatural coughing was a sign of guilt.
Even Tsuchima Mai, who was originally a little skeptical, had her doubts dispelled by these coughs, and just looked at Touma Sanae and Hayama Kazuto.
"Now, have you saved Sanae's phone number?"
"Of course I'm saving it now." Yushan Heren said with a wink.
He had just found a far-fetched excuse and intended to fool Shirasaki Hana, but he didn't expect Touma Sanae to be so cooperative and even Tsuchima Yui was fooled.
"What about my number?" Shirosaki Hanaya asked.
"I've saved them all. Yours, Sanae's, and Komari's. I've saved them all." Yushan Kazuto said.
Doma Mei looked at Yushan Kazuto and still felt that something was not right. Touma Sanae was usually carefree, and although she had a strange temper sometimes, she was not the kind of person who would sulk because she couldn't get through on the phone.
However, Touma Sanae's behavior seemed to confirm what Hayama Kazuto said, and Doma Mei also knew that Touma Sanae admired Hayama Kazuto. If we consider it from this perspective, it makes sense.
Seeing that Tsuchima's eyes were not very friendly, in order not to cause any more trouble, Yushan Kazuto did not continue talking and said, "Dinner is getting cold, so let's eat quickly."
It had been more than ten minutes since Izumi Sagiri finished eating and cleaned up the dishes, but the others were still taking their time and had eaten less than half of their meal.
Although there is floor heating at home, it is winter after all, and the dishes are almost turned into cold dishes.
Doma Mai glanced at Yushan Kazuto, who was concentrating on eating, with a little suspicion, and lowered her head as well.
……
"Sanae, thank you." After sending Sanae Touma to the door of her house and accompanying her into the house, Yushan Kazento suddenly said.
"Why are you saying this suddenly? Does the great devil Yushan have some death conspiracy?!" Touma Sanae suddenly stopped and looked at Yushan Kazuto with an evasive look.
"Thank you for not telling what happened to me yesterday in front of Xiaohua and Koumeiro." Yushan Kazuto shrugged and said.
"Hmph... Well, I would also feel troubled if you told me that kind of thing, death!" Toumori Sanae hugged her chest and turned her head to the side.
She had no overt relationship with Yushan Kazuto, and if people knew that she was furious because of something like this, she would definitely be misunderstood.
Although being misunderstood seems to feel pretty good, Touma Sanae still doesn't want to be discovered by Doma.
"Anyway, you've been a great help." Yushan Kazuto smiled, "Sanae, remember to keep it a secret from now on."
"That depends on the performance of the great devil Yushan, death!" Toumori Sanae snorted.
"Hey, you still have to look at my performance. Why do I feel like an old lady?" Yushan Heren said with some disgust.
"You! Who do you say is Obasan Death?" Toumori Sanae suddenly became anxious.
"It's like if you perform well, you'll be given a piece of candy. Isn't that very similar to an old lady?"
Shanheren asked back.
"No, no! Then, what about those mythological stories? Don't goddesses often reward mortals with death based on their performance?" Toumori Sanae argued.
"You actually compared yourself to a goddess." Yushan Kazuto looked at Toumori Sanae, "If Sanae grows another ten centimeters taller, she will definitely be a goddess."
At this point, Toumori Sanae felt a little unhappy. Even though she had started drinking the "Pure White Holy Water", she still hadn't grown taller, and even the fat mass in front of her body hadn't grown at all.
Seeing that Yushan Kazuto was about to continue speaking, Toumori Sanae immediately said:
"Great Demon Lord Yushan, if you say that again, I will tell Xiaohua and Kouma-chan what happened yesterday!"
Hearing Toumori Sanae's threat, Hayama Kazuto immediately shut his mouth.
Although from a behavioral perspective, Touma Sanae would most likely not do this, but Yushan Kazuto did not dare to gamble. After all, it was difficult for him to understand the thoughts of a fool.
Just like during the summer vacation, who would have thought that Touma Sanae would come to Tama alone?
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. Sanae, you should come in earlier." Yushan Kazuto said.
Although it has been sunny these days and there is not much wind at night, it is winter after all, so it is still a bit chilly at night.
"Yeah." Toumori Sanae responded softly. She looked around and glanced at Yushan Kazuto in the moonlight before turning her head back.
"Wait, Sanae." Hayama Kazuto suddenly shouted.
Chapter 519: Wearing a Ring
"What else is there to do?" Toumori Sanae stopped and looked at Yushan Kazuto. There was some fear in her eyes, but also some expectation hidden in them.
Yushan Kazuto walked forward, suddenly picked up one of Toumori Sanae's head butts, fiddled with it lightly with his fingers, and took out a handful of candies from it.
【My Destiny Cube! 】
Toumori Sanae was in tears, she didn't expect that Yushan Kazuto called her because of the candy hidden in her hair.
"I haven't eaten this kind of candy cubes for a long time. I wonder if there are any new flavors." Yushan Kazuto smiled and put the candy in his pocket.
"There's...lactic acid flavor." Toumori Sanae blinked and said softly.
"Hey, lactic acid flavor, isn't that a milk product?" Yushan Kazuto blinked, "Don't you never drink milk, Sanae?"
Toumori Sanae calls milk "pure white holy water" and has always been afraid of it.
"Great Demon Lord Yushan, don't even think about finding out the information about Thor's hammer user, Death!" Toumori Sanae said sternly.
Yushan Kazuto shrugged. It seemed that Touma Sanae didn't want to say anything. He was not the type of person who would get to the bottom of things, so he didn't ask any more questions.
"By the way, Sanae, I'm going to pick up Xiaohua tomorrow afternoon to go to the hospital to visit someone, so you don't have to come and pick her up. You can take a day off."
Hearing what Yushan Kazuto said, Toumori Sanae's eyes widened immediately: "Yushan, great devil, what conspiracy do you have against Xiaohua? Thor's hammer user must protect Xiaohua!"
Yushan Kazuto blinked. Although Touma Sanae's way of speaking was a bit strange, she still expressed her thoughts. She would still pick up Shirosaki Hana as usual tomorrow afternoon.
Yushan Kazuto didn't have much objection to this. He originally wanted to let Touma Sanae take a day off. It was time-consuming and laborious to pick up and drop off Shirasaki Hana every day. However, since she was happy, Yushan Kazuto didn't say much.
"It's up to you then. I have to go back first." Yushan Heren said.
I have spent several minutes at Touma's house. When I get home, I might have to face questioning from Shirasaki Hana again.
"Bye, bye." Toumori Sanae murmured.
"Goodbye, Sanae." Yushan Kazuto smiled and suddenly remembered something.
"I'll give you a new phone this weekend."
"Give me a new cell phone?" A gleam of light flashed in Toumori Sanae's eyes.
"Didn't you want to use the same phone as me before?" Yushan Kazuto said with a smile, "This new phone has good functions. It is a comprehensive upgrade of the previous phone. I believe you will like it."
As he was talking, Yushan Heren suddenly felt that he had talked too much and felt like a salesman in a shopping mall, and he couldn't help but smile.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Yushan Heren turned around and ran back. After standing in the cold wind for so long, he felt a little cold.
Only when I run do I feel a little warmth.
Toumori Sanae stared blankly at Yushan Kazuto leave, stood there for a few minutes, and then returned to the house.
……
Late at night, Aincrad.
It had just rained and the sky was somewhat clear. After Yushan Kazuto, Yuuki Asuna, and Tsuchima Mai went to see Yui after a long time, they walked on the road after the rain.
The light and shadow effects of the rain are well done, but the ground does not have the texture of after the rain. At least in the feelings of Yushan and people, although the ground is wet, it is not slippery. You can see the mud, but it will not get on your body.
Occasionally a few drops of cold rain fall from the trees, and when they hit your body you'll feel wet for a moment, but this feeling is fleeting, and there is no hint of chilliness that comes from the heat absorbed by the water droplets as they gradually evaporate.
Yushan and the others looked up and saw several demon apes shuttling through the woods. Although the demon apes were huge in size, they were very agile and made no sound at all when they jumped between the trees.
"It seems that it was you who threw water on my head just now." Yushan Heren took a deep breath and said slowly.
When the water drops fell, Yushan Heren felt something was wrong. The rain had stopped for a long time, and the water drops would not fall without external force.
Although the demon ape's movements are extremely agile, it is huge after all. Just by looking at its appearance, you can tell that it is not light. It is normal for it to be touched by water droplets while moving through the woods.
In the past few days, Yushan and the other two have walked back and forth in the woods more than a dozen times, but still have not found the boss. The design of the maze on this level is a bit weird.
If there wasn't only one forest on the entire 87th floor, Yushan Heren would even suspect that the three of them had come to the wrong place.
"If it hadn't just rained, it would have been really hard to find you!" Yushan Heren smiled and gripped the hilt of the sword. With a flash of sword light, the corpses of several demon apes fell to the ground and shattered into spots of light.
Two balls of light emerged where the corpse fell, one of which was a ring suitable for a dexterous swordsman.
"Another piece of Umaru-chan's equipment has appeared." Yushan Kazuto picked up the ring and said with some disappointment.
From the beginning of the game to now, Tsuchiya has changed her equipment more than a dozen times.
Not to mention anything else, just talking about rings, Tsuchiya Yui had almost full rings on all ten fingers, while Yushan Kazuto was much more miserable, with only some leftovers every time. There were ten rings in the equipment slots for each person, but Yushan Kazuto only wore one.
Listening to Yushan Kazuto's complaints, Tsuchima Mei did not respond, but just said: "Senior Kazuto, they didn't attack us, and the experience points are not rich, why did you kill them?"
"Xiao Mai, you don't
Are you good at uncovering hidden missions?" Yushan Kazuto looked at Tsuchima with an idiotic look.
"The only monsters in this forest are these demon apes. In other words, if you want to trigger the special plot in the forest, you must interact with these demon apes." Yuuki Asuna understood what Yuyama Kazuto meant and stood up and said.
"Obviously these demon apes cannot communicate, and their actions have no rules or goals, so the only way to interact is to kill them," added Yushan Kazuto.
Doma Mei glanced at Hayama Kazuto and Yuuki Asuna and snorted in dissatisfaction.
Somehow, the way Hayama Kazuto and Yuuki Asuna sang the same tune made Tsuchima Mai feel very uncomfortable.
"Stop humming, come here and put on the ring, the boss will be out soon."
There was one ball of light left that Yushan Heren did not pick up. There was a purple force in the ball of light. Obviously, this should be the prop that triggered the boss's plot.
Generally speaking, the more tricks the bosses in Ain Grant have, the more dangerous they are. Now that I have obtained a new ring with pretty good properties, Tsuchimiya's strength has been further enhanced, and it will be safer to deal with bosses.
Doma Mai walked over slowly. Seeing her slow pace, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but take a step forward, grabbed Doma Mai's hand, and put the ring on the only finger on her finger that didn't have a ring.
Left hand, ring finger.
Chapter 520: Little Lucky Star Umaru-chan
Tsuchiya's face suddenly turned red, and the pink color spread all over her cheeks and even extended to the depths of her neck.
Yushan Kazuto looked at the appearance of Tsuchimiya and couldn't help but blink, feeling that it was a bit strange.
"Your status should all be full, right?"
The only battle that had taken place since entering the forest was the one when Yushan and others killed the demon ape. However, to be on the safe side, Yushan and others asked again.
"They're all full." Domama looked to the side and said in a low voice.
