Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   is night and evening.

  When Kato Yusuke was struggling with the manga manuscript—

  —Boom!

   A huge movement from outside the door suddenly interrupted him.

  Because the sound was coming from next door, considering the owner of that room, he went out to check.

  —So I saw an adult man in a suit and smelling of alcohol.

   "Mr. Yoshida?"

   When he asked this out loud, the client who was pressing his forehead against the next door, squinted his drunken eyes and slanted over.

   "...what, it's you, hiccup~"

   Sure enough, it was Yoshida, and he was a version of Yoshida who seemed to be drunk and sloppy.

"What's wrong with you?"

   Kato Yusuke went straight up and grabbed the opponent's arm to prevent one of them from accidentally falling.

   A strong aroma of alcohol and an unpleasant smell came to me immediately.

   This also proves that the other party is indeed drinking, and it seems that he has drank a lot, and even vomited several times.

   In the face of his question, Yoshida was murmured and didn't know what he was saying, and what came out of his mouth were some incomprehensible syllables.

   Even though Yusuke tried hard to listen, he only heard words like "Goto", "Date", "Hashimoto".

  Because it was not a problem to stay outside all the time, he took the key that Yoshida was holding in his hand, opened the door and took the neighbor back to the room.

   The two who took off their shoes came to the living room together.

   Although Yoshida is an adult man with a height of 180 cm.

   But for Yusuke, it was not much more difficult to carry the shaky opponent back to the room than to pick up Kuro.

   So there is nothing to say about it.

   After helping Yoshida to sit down by the bed, Kato Yusuke found a bucket of mineral water from the refrigerator full of beer and poured a glass for the neighbor.

   "Drink some water, Mr. Yoshida."

"Well……?"

  Yoshida opened his eyes in a daze, and was dazzled by the light in the room again. He raised a hand to cover his eyebrows and looked at Yusuke for a long time.

   "Kato...?"

   He murmured in a daze, took the water glass subconsciously, drank it with the help of Yusuke, and drank the whole glass of water completely.

   Perhaps it was stimulated by the iced mineral water, which made his consciousness a little awake, and instinctively looked around at the surrounding environment.

"here is…?"

"your home."

   "That's it...Thanks."

   "So, what happened?"

"what…?"

   "Mr. Yoshida, have you dated Miss Goto?"

"-Aha!?"

   As if he had been stabbed in a sore spot, Yoshida, who was still drunk and blurred just now, opened his eyes wide and cried out.

   Kato Yusuke thus confirmed the conjecture in his heart, nodded and said, "I see, was it rejected?"

   "Wait, why are you..."

   "This kind of thing can be seen at a glance. After all, you have a look of despair on your face. Do you want to talk about that?"

   "Talk about...?"

   "Yes, it's better to have someone to talk to at this time than to be alone, right?"…

   "It's none of your business, Kato, it's none of your business."

   "Basically, you've already told me so many things about Miss Goto, am I still an unrelated person?"

"This-"

   Hearing this, Yoshida instinctively wanted to open his mouth to refute, but in the next second he realized that this was the truth, and he couldn't help slumping his shoulders in frustration.

   After a few seconds, he scolded a bit irritably, and said:

   "Ah, I'm really convinced. This is what you told me to say. Even if you get bored later, I won't care!"

   "Well, I'm fine. You've helped me a lot, Mr. Yoshida, so it should be."

   Kato Yusuke poured him another glass of water and sat down beside him, "By the way, if you want to smoke, please do it yourself, don't mind me."

   It can be seen that Yoshida has a momentary heartbeat.

   But probably because he was still a student, he finally resisted the urge to smoke, and just scratched the back of his neck irritably.

   "...you don't have to smoke. So...what do you want to know?"

   "Just say what you want to say."

   "Is that so..."

  Yoshida sighed heavily and said weakly: "...In short, as you think, I was dumped by Miss Goto."

   Beginning with this sentence, he began to narrate one after another.

   It's actually nothing special.

   In general, it was Yoshida who finally gathered up his courage today and made a date invitation to Miss Goto, who had been secretly in love with him for five years, and the other party happily accepted the invitation.

  The ecstatic Yoshida can be said to be very motivated for this, thinking that this great opportunity must not be wasted in vain, so he made a lot of arrangements.

  The two not only went to the zoo together, but also had dinner at a rather trendy French restaurant.

   The atmosphere during the date is also very good.

  The Goto-san really enjoyed it, not just a show.

   As an old man who has worked under the same company and the other party for five years.

  Yoshida is emotionally sluggish, but at least this can be seen.

   It is precisely because of the positive and refreshing attitude of the other party that he can't help but have a feeling of "maybe there is a real drama" in his heart.

   However, with this expectation, he was ready to launch a further attack on the opponent, and asked Miss Goto - "Would you like to come directly to my house?" This kind of invitation.

   The other party laughed very nervously, and then gave him this answer—

   "Although I never mention it in the company, I already have a boyfriend."

  Pfft, Yusuke Kato couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

   "...Let's not say anything else, but isn't your ** too undisguised? Mr. Yoshida."

   "It's so noisy! You must know that I'm 26 years old, and Ms. Goto is two years older than me. The world of adults is like this, and a kid like you won't understand—!"

  Yoshida said with a stalk on his neck, his face flushed, and he didn't know if it was due to the effect of alcohol or his inner shyness, or both. …

   "Sorry, in any case, go on, what about after that?"

   "Hey...! After I asked, I found out that she had a boyfriend five years ago. In other words, when I first met her, she already had a man."

   "I see... that's GG."

   "Damn it! I'm like a fool... I've been fascinated by a woman with a famous flower for five years."

   Yoshida raised his eyes with a stern face, his expression slightly contorted with anger, and complained repeatedly.

   "I was deceived... Give me back my love..."

   "That's really a tragic story, no wonder you drink like a ghost, I can feel your anger and sadness." Kato Yusuke nodded understandingly.

   "Ahh...I thought I had a chance."

   "Since I have a boyfriend, there is nothing I can do, not to mention that I have been in a relationship for five years."

   "Then why is she on a date!"

   "Well, this sentence is just as resentful."

   "Even if I say it 10,000 times..."

   "Doesn't that mean you have to talk for more than 3 hours?"

   "What does it matter, I have already reminded you that you insisted on telling me."

   "There's no need to say the same thing ten thousand times, right?"

   "Idiot, how can my anger be quelled because of this."

  Yoshida lowered his head in a daze and muttered to himself.

   "I really hope she can use that pair???? to help me clip it!"

   "...Venting ** after being discouraged?" Kato Yusuke smiled bitterly, and there were waves in his heart.

   "They say you don't understand, adults are such incurable creatures."

  Yoshida waved his hands indifferently, and said with a look of disapproval.

   "When I think of the hand that gently patted my shoulder, and the mouth that said "It's hard work" were all taken away... I feel so bad that I'm about to die..."

   Probably because of the concern of drinking a lot of alcohol, his mind is obviously not clear enough at the moment, and the shame and so on have disappeared.

   The so-called truth-telling after drinking is basically the same thing.

   "Mr. Yoshida, your delusions are a little too realistic."

   "I don't care about that much, I wish she could dump me after spending the night with me..."

  Yoshida said in disgust, and sighed for a while.

   In fact, talking while drinking.

   Even he himself knew very well how nasty he was looking at Goto-san right now.

   But this is also a helpless thing.

  At his age, love and **** would have turned into such an inseparable relationship.

   "Damn...Goto...It's all bad for that girl."

   He spit out half-shirk responsibilities, and said sadly: "Since there is a man, tell me from the beginning..."

   Looking at the deterioration he showed at this time, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but think of himself.

   In the eyes of Megumi and the others, did you look like this before?

   Or… to be a little more hopeless.

   After all, compared to Yoshida who just vented with words, he was really willing to degenerate at that time.

   Constantly hurting others and hurting ourselves, voluntarily sinking…

   But even so, the girls around him never gave up on him. …

   Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become a little absent-minded.

  Because of the invariable silence of the two men, the room also fell silent.

   Numerous thoughts and thoughts lingered and collided in the air, and the atmosphere became more and more depressed.

   "It's better not to confess..."

  Yoshida muttered to himself, as if eager to be freed from the pain of lovelorn, and couldn't help showing a miserable smile on his face.

   "Isn't this a complete mess? It will be super embarrassing to see you in the company in the future! I really don't know what to do in the future..."

   Kato Yusuke silently listened to his complaints and said, "If you don't know what to do, why don't you take a leave from the company temporarily to sort out your mood."

   "...Is it necessary to go back sooner or later? And I really don't know how to face Miss Goto in the future..."

   "Otherwise you can consider changing jobs."

   "It's not that easy!"

  Yoshida loudly vetoed: "You must know that it has been five years since I graduated and joined this company! How could I leave so easily?"

   "That's just the boundaries you set for yourself, right?"

"What??"

   "Although this may not sound very appealing, Mr. Yoshida, you have worked in your current company for five years, aren't you still an ordinary employee, or at most an excellent ordinary employee?"

  “!?”

   Ignoring Yoshida's tightly wrinkled face, Kato Yusuke looked at him and said:

   "On the contrary, that Goto-san is your boss, and maybe she will always be your boss.

  Whether in terms of social status or relationship, don’t you think that the relationship between the two of you is not equal from the beginning? "

   "I said you—!"

   "Don't be in a hurry to get angry, I said this is not a set that respects the superiority of men and women, and there is no other meaning.

   It’s just that since things have happened, you can’t change anything.

   So, instead of holding your breath here, it’s better to find a new goal for yourself and look forward. "

  Yoshida's mouth opened and closed, and his hands kept clenching and releasing his fists, as if trying to find something to refute him, and finally he just said something bluntly.

   "It's not as simple as you said! If you want to get a promotion and a salary increase, you can't do it just by changing companies!"

   "Indeed, in today's society in Japan, where class solidification is serious, this kind of thing is certainly not easy. I don't deny this, but... maybe it's not as difficult as you think."

   Kato Yusuke gave him a deep look and continued:

   "And Mr. Yoshida, you have a characteristic in character, that is, you always like to put your own ideas on others without authorization.

   But that also limits you, so that you can never get out of the circle you have drawn. "

   "Damn, what do you mean by that!"

   "All in all, while you're in a lot of pain right now about being dumped by Miss Goto, everyone goes through a particularly tough time.

   Instead of complaining about yourself, it is better to cheer up and prove yourself. If you are good enough, why can't Miss Gotou choose you? "

  Yoshida's expression kept changing, and he lowered his head without saying a word, as if thinking about his words, but also thinking of his own love that never ended. Full of gloom. …

   Kato Yusuke did not bother him, but sent him an email on his mobile phone and said:

   "Anyway, I'll send you an email address first, the person in charge of this company is recruiting people.

  Although it is a newly established company, it is still reliable, and the treatment is also good. If you are interested, you can learn about it and take a look at it. It is to change the environment to relax. "

   Seeing that Yoshida was still in a trance and depression, he said a few more words:

   "Anyway, you should rest early today, and let me know if you need any help.

   Don't worry too much about Miss Goto, you will let it go slowly. If you can't let go, time will teach you how to reconcile with yourself.

  Believe that the sun rises and the moon sets, and there is always a dawn. "

  “…”

  Yoshida silently raised a pair of drunken eyes, looked at him somewhat complicatedly, and then scratched his hair irritably.

   "...I can't stand it, you are a kid who is still in high school, where did you come from so many great truths!"

   Having said that, but facing Yusuke who was willing to listen to his complaints and complaints, Yoshida felt much better.

   At least compared to his colleague Hashimoto, who had nothing to do with him at the same time, his mature little neighbor is really much more reliable.

   Thinking so, Yoshida couldn't help rubbing his nose and responded with a slightly more serious attitude.

   "Anyway, thank you today... I'll take a look at what you said."

  …
