"How about we go ask Aunt Haruka together?" suggested Noa Himesaka.
"Okay, let's go ask together!" Hoshino Hinata immediately responded, and then looked at Shirasaki Hana: "Xiao Hana, what do you think?"
Shirosaki nods: "Then go... ask mom."
Himesaka Noa and Hoshino Hinata were the first to walk out of the room, and Shirasaki Hana followed behind them, but her steps were a little heavy.
……
"Aunt Haruka." Himesaka Noa and Hoshino Hinata quickly found Shirasaki Haruka who was cleaning, but Shirasaki Hana was standing not far behind her with her head down.
Shirasaki Haruka looked at the three people in front of her and couldn't help asking, "Are you three going out to play? What are you doing here together?"
"Aunt Haruka, we want to ask... will you choose to stay in Tama or move to Tokyo?" asked Noa Himesaka.
Hoshino Hinata also quickly lowered her head. Only Shirosaki Hana remained behind him, not saying a word or even moving.
"Stay in Tama or move to Tokyo? You really asked a troublesome question." Shirasaki Haruka also felt a little headache. She had thought about this question these days, but she still couldn't find the correct answer.
"Xiao Hana, do you have any opinions?" Shirasaki Haruka looked at Shirasaki Hana.
"I, I always listen to my mother." Shirosaki Hana whispered.
Shirasaki Haruka lowered her head in thought. It would be more convenient to stay in Tama. Most of her friends and acquaintances were also in Tama. Out of her own selfish desires, Shirasaki Haruka wanted to stay in Tama.
However, the education level in Tokyo is higher, which is more conducive to Shirasaki Hana's development. If you consider Shirasaki Hana's future, it would be more appropriate to choose to move to Tokyo.
Although Haruka Shirasaki's husband is not a rich man, his income is good enough to cover the expenses of moving to Tokyo, so they don't have to worry about money.
Haruka Shirasaki's heart is also wavering between Tokyo and Tama.
"If it's for Xiaohua's study and growth, I think Tokyo would be more suitable, but..." Shirasaki Haruka looked a little conflicted.
"No, don't move to Tokyo, please stay in Tama!"
Xingye Gongzi, who had been hiding in the corner without saying a word, suddenly burst out with terrifying power and rushed in front of several people.
"Please let Xiaohua stay in Tama! In Tama, Xiaohua's learning and growth will not be worse than in Tokyo!" Xingye Gongzi said solemnly.
Shirosaki Haruka blinked: "Now we are still in the third grade of elementary school, so the difference is not big... But when we get older..."
"Then let's move to Tokyo later!" said Hoshiyomiyako.
Shirasaki Haruka's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yeah, why didn't I think of this!"
In elementary school, there is not much difference whether you study in Tokyo or Tama, but once you reach the stage of further study or even junior high school, the advantages of Tokyo over Tama will be apparent.
"First...stay in Tama for now. I'll make a decision based on your results, Xiaohua."
If staying in Tama causes Shirasaki Hana's grades to drop significantly, Shirasaki Haruka will definitely move to Tokyo resolutely.
The dust has settled, and they will eventually have to stay in Tama. Shirosaki Hana feels a little happy, but also a little lost.
Yushan and others sat on the sofa, taking in the conversations of several people and slowly closed their eyes.
[Stay in Tama? That's fine too. ]
Chapter 685: Izumi Sagiri's Request
After dinner, despite the requests of Haruka Shirasaki and Hana Shirasaki to stay, Kazuto Yuyama chose to leave. There was not much point in staying in Tama for another day or two, and it would only increase the burden on Haruka Shirasaki.
Watching Yushan and others driving away, Shirosaki Hana finally couldn't hold back her tears. Izumi Sagiri stood blankly at the door for more than ten seconds, and finally returned to the room with a sense of loss.
In the room, Izumi Sagiri was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling with some boredom.
Today I feel like I have no motivation to do anything and can only toss and turn in bed.
As time passed, Izumi Sagiri suddenly remembered that she seemed to have not taken a shower today.
【It’s time to take a shower. 】
Izumi Sagiri wanted to take clothes from the closet out of habit, but when she saw the empty closet she realized that she seemed to have not yet put her clothes in order.
Looking at the huge clothing box, Izumi Sagiri still felt that she still had no motivation. She could only lie on the box, looking for her pajamas and underwear.
【What's this? 】
As she touched the box, Izumi Sagiri felt something was not right. Why did a big box appear in the box?
Izumi Sagiri grabbed the box with both hands. The box was quite heavy, but she still managed to lift it up. When she took it out, she found that it was a brand new laptop.
[This computer? Was it...was it placed in there by Kazuto's brother?]
Izumi Sagiri opened the computer box and a note fell out. The handwriting on the note was very beautiful. Izumi Sagiri looked at her eyes, but they became a little blurry.
"Sagiri, keep painting even when you return to Tama!"
[So Kazuto-nii-san remembers everything... Kazuto-nii-san...]
Only then did Izumi Sagiri understand why she seemed to be in a depressed mood after leaving Tokyo. It turned out that it was because... she left that person.
Izumi Sagiri walked out of the room, and Shirasaki Haruka just came upstairs.
"Sagiri, do you want to take a bath now?" Shirasaki Haruka looked at Izumi Sagiri. Usually, when Izumi Sagiri is willing to walk out of the room, it is either to eat or to take a bath.
"Aunt Haruka, I...I have something to say to you." Izumi Sagiri said hesitantly.
"Hmm?" Shirasaki Haruka looked at Izumi Sagiri. She felt that Izumi Sagiri had really changed. Izumi Sagiri could not say such words before.
"Well, shall we chat here or go into the room?" Shirasaki Haruka said with a smile.
"Come into the room." Izumi Sagiri whispered.
Shirasaki Haruka nodded and walked into Izumi Sagiri's room. It was a bit funny to say that Izumi Sagiri had lived in Shirasaki Haruka's house for several years, and Shirasaki Haruka had entered the room no more than five times.
Izumi Sagiri hurriedly caught up and closed the door.
"Come on, Sagiri, what's the matter?"
The door was closed. Shirasaki Haruka could feel Izumi Sagiri's nervousness. In order to prevent herself from staying in the room for too long and making Izumi Sagiri overly sensitive, Shirasaki Haruka asked directly.
"Aunt Haruka...can I, can I continue to live in Tokyo?" Izumi Sagiri said vaguely.
"Live in Tokyo?" Shirasaki Haruka's eyes flickered.
If Izumi Sagiri had proposed it earlier, she might have decided to move to Tokyo, but now she has made up her mind to stay in Tama, and Izumi Sagiri's sudden request caught Shirasaki Haruka off guard.
"Sagiri, can you tell me why you want to live in Tokyo?" asked Haruka Shirasaki.
"When I lived in Tokyo... every week, my brother Kazuto would bring a sister named Eriri to paint with me." Izumi Sagiri did not tell the truth.
Shirasaki Haruka had also heard of the name Eriri. She remembered that she should be Himesaka Noa's cousin. She came here last summer vacation, but Shirasaki Haruka was not at home at that time.
Judging from Sagiri Izumi's description, she and Eriri should have become friends. If that's the case, then Sagiri Izumi's changes are traceable.
But if she moved to Tokyo, Shirasaki Haruka would suddenly feel a little embarrassed. She was naturally happy for Izumi Sagiri that she could find friends, but she had already decided to stay in Tama. If she went back on her word, it would probably not be good for anyone.
"If you had told me earlier, Sagiri, I would have decided to move to Tokyo," said Shirasaki Haruka.
Izumi Sagiri blinked. It must have been a coincidence. Who knew that Kazuto Yushan had already left, and she only then discovered the computer that Kazuto Yushan hid in the clothing box?
"Can I...can I continue to live...in Kazuto's brother's house?" Izumi Sagiri blinked and said.
"Living in the Kazuya family's house?" Shirasaki Haruka let out a long sigh. This was a good idea, but she didn't know if Shirasaki Hana would be a little reluctant.
"Let me ask Kazuto first." said Shirasaki Haruka.
"Yeah." Izumi Sagiri nodded, while Shirasaki Haruka sat aside and called Yushan Kazuto.
……
Kazuto Hayama was driving on his way back to Tokyo. Before returning to Chiba, he had to pick up Asuna Yuuki. However, he did not expect that before he arrived in Tokyo, Haruka Shirasaki called him.
"Aunt Chunxiang, is there anything wrong?" Yushan Heren answered the phone.
Today's in-car smart displays can answer calls, so Yushan and others don't need to free up one hand to hold the phone.
"Kazuto, there is something I want to tell you." The voice of Haruka Shirasaki came from the phone, and she sounded a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter? Aunt Chunxiang, please tell me
"Yes." Yushan and Ren said.
"Sagiri said...she still wants to live in Tokyo next year. I wonder if you can continue to take care of her?" asked Shirasaki Haruka, her words a little difficult. After all, this was something that would trouble Yushan Kazuto, and she was really a little embarrassed.
"Sagiri wants to continue living in Tokyo?" Hayama Kazuto felt a little strange.
"She said that when she was in Tokyo, a girl named Eriri would paint with her every week," said Shirasaki Haruka.
"Is that so?" Yushan Kazuto blinked, "What do you think, Aunt Haruka?"
"I also want Sagiri to make more friends, and I hope she can return to her normal social level as soon as possible." said Shirasaki Haruka.
"There's no problem with Sagiri staying at my place, but I have a request. Aunt Haruka, please let Sagiri answer the phone." Yushan Kazuto said.
Shirosaki Haruka blinked, pressed the hands-free button, and handed the phone to Izumi Sagiri.
"Moshi Moshi, Kazuto-brother." Izumi Sagiri's voice was very low.
"Sagiri, there's no problem if you want to live with me." Yushan Kazuto said.
Hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in Izumi Sagiri's eyes.
"But you also know that people often come to my house to play."
Thinking back to the time when I lived at Yushan Kazuto's house, there were indeed people visiting Yushan Kazuto's house often.
"My request is... when they come over, you have to gradually interact with them. You can't just eat with them and lock yourself in the room. Can you do this?"
Chapter 686 Return to Qianye
The request made by Kazuto Hayama was a bit difficult for Sagiri Izumi, but fortunately it was not something that could be achieved all at once, but a gradual process. After thinking about it, Sagiri Izumi accepted Kazuto Hayama's proposal.
After agreeing that Kazuto Yuyama would come to pick up Sagiri Izumi before school starts next year, Kazuto Yuyama hung up the phone. The uneasiness in Sagiri Izumi's heart slowly dissipated, and was replaced by deep anticipation.
After Yushan Kazuto hung up the phone, he couldn't help but blink. He didn't expect that Izumi Sagiri actually wanted to stay in Tokyo.
But this was not a big problem for him. He had already paid a year's rent for the top-floor apartment in one go. Although he preferred a small one-bedroom apartment if he lived alone, he would just have to run up and down the stairs, which would only take up a little time.
We drove to Yuuki Asuna's residence, and she had already prepared all the luggage.
Since she was only going to Chiba to stay temporarily, Yuuki Asuna didn't have much luggage. A suitcase and a nervgear protection box were all she had.
"Asuna, you look much better." Looking at Yuuki Asuna, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but smile.
"It's all thanks to the pear soup you made last night, Senior Kazuto." Yuuki Asuna smiled.
"Huh? It's just a bowl of pear soup. It's not as magical as you say." Yushan Heren blinked.
Yuuki Asuna didn't say anything, just smiled quietly.
The two quickly got into the car, and Asuna Yuuki sat in the passenger seat.
"Senior Kazuto, I didn't expect you to bring nervgear with you." said Asuna Yuuki.
"Well, there's not too much to do during the winter vacation anyway, so it's okay to go online occasionally and kill some monsters." Yushan Heren smiled.
"According to what you said, Senior Kazuto, don't you plan to continue your strategy during the winter vacation?" asked Asuna Yuuki.
"Let's put off the strategy for now and see how things go during the winter break. Even if we do plan a strategy, we'll probably only be able to defeat one level."
Currently, the 91st floor of Aincrad has been conquered. If we continue to conquer it, we will be close to completing it.
But now many things are still unclear, and some people are still hiding under the sea. Yushan and others are prepared to be a patient fisherman and have a good fish.
"Is that so? I understand." Yuuki Asuna nodded, but she didn't show any emotion.
Originally she had been feeling a little depressed, but after drinking the pear soup cooked by Kazuto Hayama yesterday and accepting the invitation to go home with Kazuto Hayama to celebrate the New Year, the depression in Asuna Yuuki's heart has been swept away.
"By the way, don't tell Himouto that you are spending the New Year at my house," Yushan Kazuto reminded.
Asuna Yuuki looked at Kazuto Hayama and a meaningful smile appeared on her face.
How could I possibly tell this to Doma Mai? If she gets jealous, wouldn't that just add to my troubles?
After such a long time of contact, Yuuki Asuna has guessed a little bit of Tsuchima's thoughts, but Yushan Kazuto and Tsuchima should not have a very close relationship, except for that time in the game.'
Thinking of that time, Yuuki Asuna blushed a little and said quickly: "I won't tell Koumaro."
"Well, that's good." Yushan Kazuto nodded. He was actually a person who was afraid of trouble. If Tsuchima Mai knew that Yuuki Asuna was in his house, he would probably have to spend more time explaining.
Looking at the tall buildings receding behind her and the Christmas decorations on some buildings, Yuuki Asuna suddenly asked, "Has Xiaohua returned to Tama?"
"Well, I sent her back to Tama and then came to pick you up." Yushan Heren said.
