Chapter 104 The Instinct of Life
The light turned green, and Sawayama Haruno hugged Miyazawa Maki and crossed the zebra crossing.
We originally planned to go to a nearby restaurant for another meal, but after looking around on our phone, we felt that there wasn’t anything particularly delicious, so we decided to go to the supermarket to buy some food and cook it at home.
Well. You said we were going to do it together, but in the end, isn’t it still me who has to do it?
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Forget it, let this guy wash the dishes after dinner today.
If she dares not to wash, I will use my massage techniques and scratch her itchy spots like crazy!
As if he had foreseen such a scene, Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
But he soon remembered that there was something he hadn't finished saying.
"By the way, Maki."
"Did Suguha tell you about going to watch her game tomorrow afternoon?"
After saying that, he subconsciously glanced at Miyazawa Maki.
"Of course I did, but it's too late to go there after get off work. After I asked her the time, I found out that she might have finished the game by the time I got there."
Miyazawa Maki kicked a small stone on the side of the road and snorted, "Besides, after get off work, I have to take a detour to the martial arts hall to watch the competition. It's too tiring. Kendo competitions are just a group of people wearing airtight armor fighting each other, and the winner is basically decided in one or two hits. It's not interesting at all."
"The winner will be decided in one or two strokes."
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but repeat it.
Indeed, real kendo competitions are not like those in movies and TV shows, where they can last seventy, eighty, or ninety rounds.
Everyone enters the competition venue basically aiming to score points, so the outcome is often decided quickly; whoever hits the effective part first and gets the points is the winner.
He thought that if he had a kendo competition like in Rurouni Kenshin, where he rolled around on the floor and waited for the right moment to strike out with a cold knife, he would probably be disqualified right away, right?
However, even though I already know that it is a little different from what I imagined, I can still go and visit it.
"Are you sure you don't want to go?"
"you want to go?"
Miyazawa Maki glanced at Sawayama Haruno with some suspicion.
Only then did she realize that Suguha Ezaki seemed to have invited Haruno Sawayama to go with her.
Hmm. I think I heard someone mention it on LINE before, and it seems like I got to know Haruno at some point.
Plus since I have this friend of mine, it seems reasonable to invite them all together.
"I'm not going."
After thinking about it, Miyazawa Maki put the matter behind her.
She was not the type to spend a lot of time delving into other things, so she said nonchalantly: "Go if you want to. If it's interesting, take a few more photos for me."
"All right."
Such an open-minded side surprised Sawayama Haruno.
He thought that since the other party didn't want to go, he wouldn't let him go either.
Come to think of it, Maki seems to be particularly nervous only when it comes to dealing with Mana.
The only person who made her feel like she could be snatched away at any time seemed to be Mana.
This seems to be the attitude towards other people, the type that doesn't care much.
I really can't tell whether she is very confident about her appearance or she is targeting Mana alone.
Forget it, I'm just going to watch a game anyway, why should I think so much?
Sawayama Haruno put his thoughts aside and took Miyazawa Maki to a nearby supermarket to buy food.
Today was the first time for him to cook. While buying groceries, Sawayama Haruno thought for a long time and finally decided to cook some Chinese cuisine that he was familiar with. Since he received the reward of "skill improvement", he seemed to have not used it to cook.
The only things he could normally use this reward for were typing, mixing cocktails and making desserts. The rest of the time, Sawayama Haruno was quite relaxed and didn't need to do anything special.
Since today's opportunity is so rare, I might as well make some authentic Chinese food for him, so that this guy won't really think that mapo tofu is really sweet and that strawberries can be used to cook.
It is worth mentioning that when checking out, Maki Miyazawa stared at Okamoto next to the counter thoughtfully.
That look is so obvious, is he concerned?
"Hey"
She pulled Zeshan Haruno, who was about to take out his credit card to pay, and whispered, "Do you want to buy one? It can prevent it, right?"
She was really moved, and the reason was very simple: these days were a special period.
But Sawayama Haruno can't hold it in, especially with such a cute self living under the same roof.
As long as we use this thing, it should be okay even during special periods, right?
She thought it was necessary to buy some as a preventive measure.
No, not buy some. It should be buy a bunch.
Maki Miyazawa was a little confused. How many were in a box? Five or ten?
If this is the case, one box will probably be used up in less than two or three days, right?
This is even taking into account the time Haruno Sawayama spends going to school. If it isn't included, it should be even faster, right?
Hmm, I can’t figure it out, but it should be a good idea to buy ten boxes at once.
"."
Sawayama Haruno's face twitched slightly.
He noticed that the girl at the supermarket counter stopped scanning and looked at him, asking if he needed anything.
"Check out."
He took a deep breath and tried his best to keep a straight face as he handed over the credit card.
The lady at the counter was obviously trying not to laugh as she swiped her credit card through the POS machine.
Even when she walked out of the supermarket, Maki Miyazawa was still obsessed with those "Okamoto".
"Why not buy it, or do you actually want a child?"
"It's not that I don't want to buy it, I just don't want to buy it at this time."
Sawayama Haruno rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "I am obviously the man, why are you acting more lascivious than me?"
"It's obviously the instinct of life."
Miyazawa Maki curled her lips, thinking that she seemed a little too perverted, so she didn't dare to say anything.
Hmm. I’ll wait until the video game store gets paid and then secretly come here again.
Buy ten boxes, no, twenty boxes?
Humph, doing it in a big way is no joke. I have to surpass my sister in terms of the number of times, and win by an overwhelming number.
Make Sawayama Haruno become someone who can't even be himself!
Thinking of this, she smiled foolishly again.
When I came to my senses, I realized that Sawayama Haruno had walked a long distance away without me noticing.
"Hey, wait for me!"
Her eyes widened and she immediately accelerated and rushed forward.
While Sawayama Haruno was still not able to react, she took a running start and jumped onto Sawayama Haruno's back, with her legs tightly wrapped around his waist.
"You didn't wait for me"
"As punishment, you will have to carry me back like this." She whined.
