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

  Chapter 738 Nakano Ryoko's Request for Help

  After changing to a new office location, it is impossible to deal with all kinds of things in one day, so everyone still leaves work according to the normal time.

   Kato Yusuke returned to the house he had rented before and began to pack his things.

   Throw away the garbage that should be thrown away, tidy up the messy things, and then buy myself a simple bed and some daily necessities from the Internet.

  Because the house is still due in three months, he didn't add too many things, as long as it can meet the needs of daily life.

   Packed up until almost six o'clock, went out to the convenience store, bought some food and toiletries and came back.

  Yusuke Kato was writing the plans for "Fate/StayNight" and "Fate/Zero" while eating bento.

  One of the two is a text adventure game, and the other is a novel + animation adaptation.

  Although he told Yoshida to make a mobile game of "FateGrandOrder", it was only a long-term goal.

  Before the launch of the mobile game, he needs to use the two works of FSN and FZ to develop the world view and widely root the concept of "heroic spirit" in people's consciousness.

   Only in this way can FGO truly realize its potential, otherwise it will be just a second-rate mobile game.

   To put it bluntly, the soul of the Fate IP actually lies in the "heroic spirit".

  The reason why FGO in the previous life became popular all over the world is because of the vitality brought to the characters by the complete and detailed plot.

  Those characters in historical legends are far away and perfect to us, and what FGO shows is precisely the shortcomings that may exist in these characters.

  Each character in it has its own plot and highlight performance. Players can see different ideas collide with each other under the same worldview.

  In this process, players are both observers and experiencers, they will experience the joys, sorrows and joys in the story, and resonate with some of the characters.

  These are the highlights of this game.

   Without the blessing of those plots, the so-called heroic spirits are just some empty paper figures, which cannot attract players to spend money on them.

  Yusuke Kato is still counting on FGO to achieve financial freedom. Naturally, he will not hastily launch a semi-finished game, but will let it come out when the time is right.

   After writing the project proposal for a while, the phone rang suddenly.

   "...Good evening, Yu-kun, did I bother you?" Nakano Ryoko's voice came from the receiver, with a bit of fatigue in her voice.

  "Nakano-senpai??" Kato Yusuke was taken aback, "How is senpai recently? I contacted you yesterday, but you didn't answer."

   "Hmm..." Nakano Ryoko took a shallow breath, and summoned up the courage to say, "Sorry, Yu-kun, although this is a bit sudden, can I ask you for help?"

  …

   Twenty minutes later.

  Yusuke Kato arrived at Ikebukuro Station.

  He stood in the square in front of the station, looking around.

  The signs of movie theaters, restaurants, and department stores are as bright as day, and there is prosperity and noise everywhere.

  In this colorful chaos, a girl came into his vision.

  The other party was leaning against the street lamp, wearing pure white half sleeves, the hem of which was elegantly tucked into a black skirt. The short, fluffy black hair was covered with a cool halo, standing alone in the night.

  The bustling crowd passed in front of her continuously, but they did not disturb her world. There seems to be an invisible barrier between the two parties, which brings out her tranquility and uniqueness even more.

  "Nakano-senpai!" Kato Yusuke couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and walked forward calling.

   It’s been five months since I saw her, but this senior is still the same as before.

  Hearing his voice, the girl also turned her head slowly, with a reserved smile on her cold brows, she called You Jun softly.

  Yusuke Kato was about to speak, but his expression suddenly froze in the next second.

  For some reason, there was a bright red slap mark on Ryoko Nakano's face.

  He was taken aback when he saw this, then immediately changed his face, and asked in surprise and anger: "Sister Nakano?? What's the matter with your face???"

  A burst of anger instantly filled his chest.

  There are not many people in this world that Kato Yusuke can truly respect, and Ryoko Nakano happens to be one of them.

   And the other party was obviously beaten by someone now, which made him feel uncontrollably angry, so that his whole face turned livid.

   "Calm down, Yu-kun." Ryoko Nakano spoke softly, and said calmly, "I'll explain the situation to you slowly, but it's not here. Let's find a suitable place to talk."

   Kato Yusuke was a little puzzled by her calmness, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded heavily.

  Ryoko Nakano smiled lightly, "I know there is a park here, Yu-kun, come with me."

  She lifted the lady's shoulder bag on her shoulders, and then walked in a certain direction.

   The two left the bustling station square, walked on a slightly dark avenue with few pedestrians, and finally came to a park with lush grass.

   "Let's sit here for a while." Nakano Ryoko pointed to a wooden bench and said.

  That area should be for people to cool off, but at this time it is empty and suitable for conversation.

  Yusuke Kato nodded, bought two cans of coffee from the vending machine next to him, and handed one of the cans to Ryoko Nakano before sitting down on the bench.

  The night wind blows, bringing the smell of turf and soil, exuding a quiet atmosphere, which makes people feel calm.

   Two people opened the tab of the metal can and took two sips of coffee.

   "...Nakano-senpai." Kato Yusuke couldn't help asking first: "With all due respect, did anything happen at the senior sister's house?"

   "Huh? Why do you say that...?"

   "When I was having dinner with my friends yesterday, someone mentioned this matter."

  Ryoko Nakano murmured: "...It's strange, things about our family should not be easily spread to the school. Has this matter become so serious..."

   Kato Yusuke took a big sip of coffee and asked earnestly, "Anyway, senior sister, can you tell me what happened?"

  Ryoko Nakano did not answer this question immediately. She held the metal can with both hands, rubbed her fingers unconsciously on it, and said after a moment of silence:

   "To put it simply, there was a little problem between me and my family, so I left home temporarily..."

  Yusuke Kato frowned lightly, vaguely aware of the problem, "...uh, the wound on the face of senior sister is also...?"

   Ryoko Nakano moved the corner of her mouth, smiled apologetically at him, and then asked without answering:

   "I'm sorry, Yu-kun, although it would be a bit presumptuous for me to say this, I wonder if it is convenient for you to lend me some money? I will pay you back as soon as possible."

  As she spoke, her cheeks couldn't help but feel slightly hot, feeling ashamed of her behavior of borrowing money from younger generations.

  If it wasn't because she was desperate, she wouldn't have made such a choice, but she couldn't help it.

   With nowhere to go and no money, she needs a sum of money to tide her over.

  Kato Yusuke didn't say a word, took out his wallet, took out all the cash in it, and handed it to her, "Is this enough? Sister."

   "...well, enough."

   Ryoko Nakano bowed her head, feeling a little indescribable, and even embarrassed to count how much money she had in her hand. She only knew that it was very thick and should be enough to support her for a while.

  She pursed her lips, looked at the junior in front of her, and said softly with relief:

   "...Thank you Youjun, you really helped me a lot. I will find a way to return the money to you within the next month at the most."

  Kato Yusuke shook his head without saying a word.

  The benches were illuminated by street lamps, casting vague shadows on the ground, and the surroundings were silent.

   "...Nakano-senpai." The young man raised a pair of sword eyebrows, and his deep black eyes seemed to be thinking about something, and finally asked cautiously.

   "The matter of money is nothing, is there anything else I can do to help you...?"

  Ryoko Nakano looked at him suspiciously, and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you already help me?"

   "I don't mean these." Kato Yusuke shook his head again, looked into her eyes and asked, "I want to know what the senior sister plans next?"

   "Hmm...I'll probably find a place to live first?"

   "I remember that Nakano-senpai is studying business administration at Tokyo University, right? If you want to rent a house near the school, the money is not enough."

   "Well, it doesn't matter. I have already decided to use my spare time to work part-time. It shouldn't matter."

   "In other words, isn't Nakano-senpai planning to go home anytime soon?"

   Facing this question, Nakano Ryoko thought for a while quietly, then smiled and shook her head slowly.

   "...Sorry, I haven't thought about this issue yet, but I want to take a look at it for a while."

   Kato Yusuke nodded, choosing the right words: "In that case... Nakano-senpai is going to live with me?"

   "Eh??" Ryoko Nakano's expression froze, and she didn't realize it for a long time. She pointed to herself and asked, "...I'm going to live with You-kun?"

   "Ah, I didn't mean that." Kato Yusuke suddenly realized his language problem, and quickly explained:

  "The thing is like this, in fact, our studio has recently moved, but the previous house cannot be returned due to the contract.

  I want to say that it is empty anyway, if Nakano-senpai is willing to use it, it can just help me solve this trouble... I just don’t know what she wants..."

   As he spoke, embarrassment was written all over his face, and he was annoyed at his inappropriate words.

  Ryoko Nakano finally understood what he meant, her eyes wandered for a while, and she looked down vaguely, "...I see."

  Yusuke Kato remedied: "Of course, I'm just a suggestion. It's up to senior sister to do what you want. You don't have to worry about it."

  The girl nodded, but said nothing.

   Suddenly there was a quiet moment at the scene.

  Yusuke Kato touched his nose, unable to speak for a while.

  Thinking about it carefully, his behavior just now was really suspicious.

   Just lending money to others on the front foot, and inviting others to the house on the back foot, it is no wonder that girls do not misunderstand.

   But he really has no evil intentions!

  He just wanted to repay the senior sister, and didn't want to be perfunctory when the other party was down, that was against his principles.

  After a while, a soft exhalation suddenly sounded beside him.

   "...Is it okay?"

   Ryoko Nakano stared at the ground, fingers crossed.

   "If it's just borrowing money, it's fine, but if You-kun takes me in, maybe my family will make trouble..."

   Kato Yusuke was stunned for a moment, realizing that her problem was far more serious than revealed.

  He nodded solemnly, and promised in a serious tone: "Please rest assured, senior sister, no matter what happens, I will help."

  Hearing what he said, Nakano Ryoko's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she pursed her lower lip tightly. Then she raised her head, her eyes were mature and gentle.

   "...Thank you, Yu-kun, you really fulfilled your promise to help me."

   "Sister, don't say that, this is what I should do... What about that house...?"

   "Hmm~"

  Ryoko Nakano nodded with a smile, and bowed sincerely to thank her.

   "Although I'm sorry, but I really need this help, please let me bother you for a while."

   "Well, senior sister, you don't have to be so polite...then I'll call a car first."

   "Okay, sorry to trouble you."

"Won't."

  Yusuke Kato waved his hand, and ran to the side of the road to stop the car.

  Looking at his back, Ryoko Nakano lightly pressed her right hand on her chest, let out a sigh of relief, and murmured softly with a blushing face:

   "...scare me."

  …

   In this way, the two came to the old studio.

  Yusuke Kato assembled the sofa into a makeshift bed, and said with some embarrassment.

   "Sorry, senior sister, I have already booked a bed online, and it will probably be delivered tomorrow, so I can only ask you to be wronged tonight.

  In addition, the toiletries are in the bathroom. I bought those new ones today, so feel free to use them.

  If you feel thirsty, there are juices and drinks in the refrigerator in the kitchen downstairs, and there are various snacks and frozen foods in the pantry, so you can help yourself.

  Finally, here are the keys to the house and the spare key, which I put on the coffee table. "

   After explaining all kinds of things tirelessly, Kato Yusuke looked around and said, "Well... that's basically it, senior sister, is there anything else you need?"

  Ryoko Nakano shook her head lightly, "No more, thank you for being so thoughtful."

   "That's fine. I'll go back if there's nothing wrong with my senior. You can contact me anytime if you need anything."

  Yusuke Kato finished speaking without any further interruption, and left directly.

  Ryoko Nakano walked around the house, carefully locked the doors and windows, then returned to the "bedroom", and sat down at the table for four by the window.

   This was originally the common room of the studio.

  Because of the problem of inconsistency in style, I did not move to a new office building, and most of the indoor things remained the same.

  Ryoko Nakano sat quietly on a chair, looking at this strange room, feeling both a sense of peace of mind and a sense of emptiness in her heart.

  Although the mansion of the Nakano family is much larger than this, the servants of the family can always appear in front of you when you need it, and it is more difficult to be alone.

   Just posted like this for a while.

   "Ding Dong~"

   Suddenly there was a melodious doorbell downstairs.

  Ryoko Nakano checked the surveillance camera suspiciously, and found Yusuke Kato outside, so she hurriedly opened the door.

   "... You Jun? Didn't you go home?" She asked inexplicably, wondering why the other party would go and come back.

   "Oh, it's like this, senior." With a simple smile on his face, the boy raised the plastic bag in his hand and shook it.

   "I didn't realize until I got home that there seemed to be no anti-swelling medicine and ice packs here, so I bought some here. This should help the injury on the senior sister's face."

  Ryoko Nakano blinked, "...you came back just for this?"

   "No, there is actually one more thing."

  Yusuke Kato shook his head, mysteriously untied the slender cloth bag on his back, placed it carefully on the ground, and then opened the zipper.

  —A beautiful Japanese bow lay impressively inside.

   "This is..." Ryoko Nakano opened her eyes slightly in surprise, staring at the bow without moving, unable to move her eyes away.

   Kato Yusuke nodded with a smile.

   "Well, this is the bow that my senior sister gave me when she graduated. I think you may feel uncomfortable when you suddenly change to a new environment, so I sent it to accompany you."

  Nakano Ryoko suddenly came back to her senses, staring at Kazumi and his face on the ground in turn, suddenly felt soft inside.

   "...Even so, there's no need to send it in such a hurry, right?"

   "Sister, it's okay, because I also want to deliver medicine, so I just went together."

   "Thank you for noticing my emotions, Yu-kun is really gentle."

   "No, it is said that you are exaggerating, senior. Then I will go back, you should rest early."

   "Wait a minute first." Ryoko Nakano narrowed her eyes softly, called out to him, then raised her hand to help him tidy up his slightly messy hair.

   "Your hair is all messed up, boys should pay attention to their appearance when they go out, and don't be frizzy. Do you know?"

   Kato Yusuke waved his hand indifferently, said goodbye to her again, turned and left.

  Ryoko Nakano stood at the entrance and watched him off, and did not close the door until his back completely disappeared into the night.

  Then, she squatted down holding the tail of her skirt, staring lovingly at the Japanese bow that had accompanied her for many years, and stretched out her hand to caress it.

   Strange to say, the previous anxiety about the new environment really disappeared, and an indescribable warmth lingered in her chest.

  Ryoko Nakano touched the bow with many thoughts in her heart.

  Suddenly, her father's exasperated yell suddenly appeared in her mind.

  「Either you marry me immediately and have an heir, or get out of this house and never come back again!」

  The girl squinted her eyes and muttered in a daze:

   "...Is the eldest son that important?"

  …
