Chapter 289 Mingxiu Plank Road

   "Then then—"

   "Cheers~~~~~!"

  Pop tap.

  With the center of the two joined dining tables as the center, nine disposable paper cups were touched together and then separated.

   The crowd who used juice instead of drinks staggered.

   The table is filled with hearty dishes.

   Thanks to the high-grade ingredients that Uchiyama Kenta was arranged by his grandfather, the dinner recipe added a sukiyaki pot to the original.

  The main dishes are: Wagyu Matsutake Sukiyaki, Japanese Ginger Grill, Octopus Balls, Vegetable Salad, Croquette, Tonkatsu, Tempura, Grilled Salmon, and Fried Dumplings.

   The main dishes are pork soba noodles and bacon egg pasta, which is also served with hot radish amberjack soup.

   "Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooalous"

   "Really! It's amazing, but it would be even better if the main dish was ramen." Takei, who was sitting next to him, nodded his head hurriedly, which attracted Yoshiko's complaints.

   "I think you're already addicted to ramen, Takei-san."

   Then he turned his head and asked, "By the way, is this beef from A5? Kenta."

"what?"

   Uchiyama Kenta, who was suddenly asked about it, was taken aback for a moment, but he still answered, "No, it should be an A4. Grandpa said that because he didn't have time to prepare in advance, that's all we have at home... I'm sorry."

   After saying that, he lowered his head inexplicably.

  Yako: "Huh? Wait, why do you have to apologize? Eh?"

  Kenta: "No, it's that..."

   "Probably feel that I have failed everyone's expectations, so I feel embarrassed? Kenta is still the same as before." Mina Motoyama, who was sitting next to him, explained with a smile.

   "What—? You're embarrassed for something like this, it's strange."

   "Well, but it's normal for middle school students, right? Didn't filial piety before?"

   "Idiot, I didn't do that kind of thing even when I was in elementary school."

   "So, that means Kenta is an elementary school student?"

   "Ah, that's too much, you two."

Jia Zi sternly faced the mangosteen brothers who were playing, pointed to the side and said, "No matter how naive other people's reactions are, they shouldn't be called elementary school students, right? Even if they just entered middle school, they are considered middle school students! Right? Kenta."

  Σ (дlll)

   glanced at Uchiyama Kenta, whose face turned pale because of these words, and was speechless.

   Yamaguchi laughed out loud: "As expected of you, Kako. To say such a thing so easily, your mouth is poisonous enough."

   "I mean..." Takei also reminded with a smirk: "Kenta is the third in the country, and he is going to take the exam next year, so he's not just a junior high school student."

   "...Eh? True or false? Wait, I'm sorry Kenta! I accidentally made a mistake." Kako lowered her head slightly with her hands folded.

   "Oh, oh...it's okay." Uchiyama Kenta reluctantly responded with a smile.

   "Uh...but your expression doesn't look like this at all, it really caused you trouble, I'm really sorry!"

   Upon seeing this, Kato Yusuke said casually: "Okay, he has such an awkward personality, you don't have to take it too seriously, Kako."

   "Ah, is that so?"

   "Who are you talking about, who's embarrassed!?"

   Kato Yusuke smiled lightly and ignored it.

   "Come on, Yusuke, please use~" Sayu put a tempura into his bowl.

   "Thank you, but I'll just do it myself."

   "Hey hey."

   Yamaguchi's eyes widened immediately, "Wow, the shrimp was caught as soon as it came up, **** it! I want it too."

   As he said that, he took one from the plate with his public chopsticks.

   "Ah, give me one too, filial piety."

"And I."

   "Then I too..."

   Takei, Kako, and Kenta joined in one after another.

   "You're doing it yourself!"

   "Just eat it together~" Motoyama Mina said with a smile to the group of people who were arguing.

  At this time—

   "Let's have a pan-fried dumpling, Kato-san." Hasumi Kanoko chuckled and took a pan-fried dumpling into someone's bowl.

   "...?" Kato Yusuke raised his eyes to the right.

  Two tables put together in a rectangular shape.

  Older Mina Motoyama and Mr. Hasumi sat on opposite ends of the 12:00 and 6:00 directions respectively.

  The latter is the standard, in a clockwise direction.

   On her left are Sayu, Kato Yusuke, Yamaguchi and Takei.

   Then follow the counter-clockwise direction.

   On the right are Megumi, Kako, and Uchiyama Kenta.

  Although I was a little surprised, Kato Yusuke thanked others for giving him food.

   Hasumi-sensei smiled and waved his hand and said no, then he lowered his head and started eating as if nothing had happened.

   So Yusuke also prepared to move his chopsticks to enjoy the love from his lover and teacher.

   "Oh, you guys seem to be doing very interesting things."

   There was a joke from the opposite side: "Then this is also for you, thank you for inviting us to your house~ Kato-kun."

   A piece of tonkatsu dipped in a little sauce was sandwiched by Himekawa Yoshiko into his bowl.

"Um?"

   Kato Yusuke raised his brows at this, and complained: "It's not so much that I invited it, it's better that you decided without authorization?"

   "Hey~~~~~ I shouldn't act like "I'm glad everyone is here too" at a time like this, right? "

   "If you want to say it, I just think that you and Yamaguchi and the others think about one thing and one thing. Is this like attracting like?"

   "... Kato-san is so ruthless, you can be more popular at school, but forget it, I've already thanked you with a tonkatsu." Kako said with a sigh, and then bumped Kumpui with her shoulder.

   said eloquently: "So what does Xiaohui choose?"

"what?"

   "Tempura, gyoza, and tonkatsu have already been selected, so you can only choose the other ones for Kato-kun, let's play together~!"

   "Huh? Even if you say so..."

   The girl who had been watching the change apparently did not expect to be involved, and her expression seemed a little troubled.

   Then he looked up at the other side.

   I saw Sayu Zheng unconsciously pouring the drink Kato Yusuke had drunk into his own cup and giving him a new cup of oolong tea.

"what…"

  Mei, who couldn't help but let out a low groan, turned her head and looked to her side, her eyes saying "You hurt me".

"What's wrong?"

   Kako, who hasn't done anything else since the first bump, tilted her head, her face full of doubts.

   "Nothing." The girl replied lightly, reaching out and picking up a chubby octopus ball with chopsticks.

   Facing Yoshiko's constant following gaze, this octopus ball that drew an arc in the air finally fell into someone's bowl without incident, crowding with the tempura and fried dumplings inside.

   "Sorry for the trouble we caused you, Kato-san." Megumi said softly, taking back the chopsticks.

  Although the sound is not loud, the beautiful tone is still clearly transmitted to the ears of several people.

  The air was suddenly quiet.

Whoa whoa-!

   Kako on the side wanted to scream, her pursed lips turned into a lovely wavy line, and she lowered her head and secretly clenched her fist.

   Kato Yusuke's chopsticks trembled involuntarily.

   "Huh?" Sayu turned around and looked over with a light hum.

   Ignoring Kako, who lowered her head and couldn't see her expression, her eyes stayed on Megumin's face.

  「?」

The    girl tilted her head slightly in confusion, and looked at her calmly.

   Neither of them looked at Kato Yusuke, but the subtle atmosphere surrounding him made him feel inexplicably sitting on pins and needles.

   If Hasumi-sensei helped to serve vegetables before, it can be seen as a teacher's care, and Himekawa Yoshiko's help with dishes can be regarded as a joke of a friend, then when it's Megumi's turn... it should also be regarded as a friend's concern, right?

  If the two girls hadn't looked at each other like they did now...

   He also lowered his head, but Hasumi Kanoko, who had been observing the surroundings with his peripheral vision, stopped moving. And through the action of drinking a drink, he began to secretly watch the reactions of the two parties or three parties with interest.

   Sayu is curious with a little exploration, Megumi is indifferent and a little magnanimous, as for Kato Yusuke, his face is expressionless, with a deep expression like a wooden face.

   Even so, relying on his already good looks and dressing, let alone really good-looking...

   Hasumi Kanoko couldn't help but blushed when she thought of this. The two slender legs under the table were overlapped up and down, and she kicked someone's knee with a small foot wearing disposable slippers.

   Kato Yusuke, who was thinking about what to say, looked over.

   "Didn't I tell you all about it?" - The other party who seemed to glance at the left and right sides inadvertently gestured with his eyes, and there was a bit of jokes in it.

The arc of   's lips, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile, made Kato Yusuke froze for a moment, and then narrowed his eyes slightly in displeasure.

   As a result, it seems to have inspired the opponent's rebellious heart.

  According to Hasumi Kanoko's plan, she originally wanted to use this sudden situation to make Kato Yusuke feel that something was wrong, and then take advantage of the situation to help clear the siege.

  I didn't expect that someone not only didn't understand her thoughts at all, but even showed that kind of expression to himself.

   just kicked him under the table with a bit of annoyance.

   Originally, he just kicked, but as usual, Kato Yusuke doesn't care about making a joke. After all, he has seen the humiliating side of the opponent when he is out of control, so he naturally has a certain understanding of his character.

   But just in time for the current juncture, he was not so gentle because he had some concerns.

  When the opponent kicked again, he grabbed the foot and held the five-finger ring at the ankle, making it unable to move.

"what…!"

   Hasumi Kanoko suddenly exclaimed, attracting the attention of the surrounding.

"teacher…?"

   "Excuse me, what happened?"

   Megumi and Sha said after giving priority.

"Uh…?"

   glanced at the left and right sides, and even saw the teacher and shook his head quickly, "...It's okay, just suddenly... um!"

   Before he could finish speaking, there was another exclamation in his mouth.

   So he quickly lowered his head and covered his mouth with his hands.

   A crisp, numb feeling came from the instep where the slippers were quietly removed, as if countless ants were crawling.

   This time even Yamaguchi and the others looked over.

"What happened?"

   "Did something happen?"

   Although she did not speak, Motoyama Mina and Uchiyama Kenta also set their sights on her.

   "Ah, your face is so red, is there something wrong with you?" Kako asked this as she was about to stand up from her seat, but was immediately stopped by the other party.

   "Okay, it's okay!"

   "Huh! Uh..."

   Teacher Hasumi slowly raised his head and said to the frightened Kako and everyone, "It's just a sudden toothache, I'm sorry, everyone."

   He covered his cheeks while speaking, and he was carefully recognizing the strokes on the instep in his heart.

   The word "help" gradually came to mind.

   couldn't help but feel annoyed, but he didn't look at anyone.

   Instead, he sat down with his **** forward a little, and responded to the crowd with a forced smile.

   "What, it turned out to be a toothache." Yamaguchi nodded his head like that.

   "Could it be that I ate too much sweets?" Takei asked curiously, but Kaiko refuted it.

   "Idiot, that's what you only do, right?"

   "Hey! Takei is Takei, I'm me, I don't like sweets very much, don't confuse them."

   The three quarreled.

   And seeing Motoyama Mina who was okay, he also asked about Uchiyama Kenta next to him.

   So the situation is divided into two halves again.

   Using an inappropriate word to describe it is probably "Shura Field" vs "Xianzaren".

  Oh...and also to count a hostage who was innocently involved.

   Hasumi Kanako thought a little aggrieved, but it didn't show on her face.

  Seeing that she was fine, Sayu turned his eyes to the opposite side again and smiled softly, "Does it mean that Megumi and Yusuke have a good relationship? I don't know at all."

   is hidden behind the friendly tone, but it seems that some kind of sharp tool is facing the tip of the knife.

   In this regard, Megumi didn't seem to feel anything at all, and her expression was still as indifferent and calm as before.

   replied lightly: "Well... I'm probably the assistant of Kato-kun, after all, I'm the vice president of the student council. Is this a good relationship?"

   "I don't know, what does Megumi think?" Sayu asked rhetorically.

   "Sorry, because I don't have many friends, so I don't know very well." Megumin shook her head slightly.

  The eyes of the two never escaped each other, they continued to explore the shuttle tour, and continued to respond calmly.

   "Then...if the relationship is not good, why would you help Yusuke with food?" Sayu continued to ask.

   But he didn't know that as long as he moved his leg a little at this moment, he would be able to touch the slender, slender leg that was held in mid-air.

   Kato Yusuke couldn't help but coughed lightly: "Well, Kako didn't say it too, it was a thank you invitation..."

"-Oh?"

   He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

   "I'm sorry, I'm not asking Yusuke, I'm asking Miss Hui." Sayu smiled at him gently, then turned back immediately, waiting for the other person to answer.

   Kato Yusuke was dumbfounded for a moment, and looked diagonally to the right.

  What catches his eye is Hasumi Kanoko, who has his head lowered like a cowardly quail.
