"Don't be so loud!"
The sound of high heels rang in my ears again. Judging from Yushan and others' voices, it would definitely be heard by people outside.
In desperation, Kato Megumi stood on tiptoe and covered Yushan Kazuto's mouth.
"Well……"
……
"A-choo!" While walking in the store, Hiromi Kato suddenly sneezed.
"Hiromi, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" The person next to Hiromi Kato was actually Machida Sonoko.
"It's nothing, maybe someone is saying bad things about me behind my back." said Hiromi Kato.
"How is that possible? Could it be that the scent of daisies in this store is making you feel a little uncomfortable?"
"I'm not sure. I think this possibility is not very high." said Hiromi Kato.
"By the way, Yuanzi, did you hear any strange noises when you passed by the locker room?"
"Strange noises in the locker room? Don't try to scare me on purpose, Hiromi!"
"I felt like I heard some rustling sounds." said Hiromi Kato.
"Let's get out of here quickly!" Machida Sonoko became nervous.
……
After walking out of Rokutenma Shopping Center, unlike last time when they returned with full bags, Yushan Kazuto and Kato Megumi came back empty-handed, having bought basically nothing.
"Where are we going now? Sister Hongmei is in the mall, so we probably can't go shopping here anymore." Yushan Heren asked.
"Let's go to the supermarket and buy some ingredients. We'll cook at noon." Kato Megumi said.
"Let's go then."
The two took a car back to their home and walked to the largest supermarket in the area.
There were many people on Sunday, and the place was bustling with people. Hayama Kazuto and Kato Megumi were standing close together.
"Don't put your arms around my waist." Kato Megumi whispered.
"There's nothing I can do. I'm just worried that you, Hui, will be squeezed out." Yushan Heren smiled shamelessly.
After buying four or five ingredients and some seasonings, the two fled the supermarket.
"Do you want me to carry your bag for you?" Looking at Kato Keika's sweaty appearance, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but ask.
"No need." Kato Megumi shook her head.
"What's in the bag? You've been carrying it all day and never let it go."
"secret!"
Yushan Kazuto blinked. He didn't expect that the two words he used to deceive Domama yesterday would fall on his head today.
……
"By the way, didn't you tell anyone about your birthday?"
Door, Yushan and Renren asked.
"No, you're the only one who knows about this, Kazuto." Kato Megumi placed the ingredients in the kitchen and then carefully put away her bag.
"Hey, Ginko, Koumaro, and Ningzi, Yukinoshita, don't they know?"
Yushan Kazuto was a little surprised.
"Apart from my parents and sister, you are the only one who knows about this," Kato Megumi repeated.
Yushan Kazuto blinked, he didn't expect that he would have such an honor.
"Today is my birthday, so I'll leave lunch to you, Kazuto."
"Do you need to cook lunch for your uncle and aunt?"
"No, Dad is at work, Mom went to visit a friend today, and my sister is not at home either." Kato Megumi counted one by one.
"Hey, so it's just the two of us at your birthday party, Hui?" Yushan Kazuto said with some surprise.
"I feel very satisfied just to have you accompany me." Kato Megumi chuckled.
In fact, Kato Megumi celebrated her first few birthdays alone.
Because of her transparent nature, Kato Megumi's parents and sister often forget her birthday. Over time, she has almost gotten used to the feeling of celebrating her birthday alone.
……
There wasn't much variety in the lunch, after all, there were only two of us, but every dish was very exquisite.
In the center of the dining table was a bowl of noodles. Kato Megumi watched Yushan and others pull it out with her own eyes, and she always felt that it had some special meaning, so she decided to eat the noodles first.
"This noodle is so long." Looking at the noodles on the chopsticks, Kato Megumi was a little surprised.
A whole bowl of noodles, half was gone in no time.
"This is a Chinese birthday custom called longevity noodles. Eating such longevity noodles can make you live for five or six hundred years." Yushan Heren said with a smile.
"Hey, the elementary school student is saying weird things again." Kato Megumi blinked, "How can anyone live for 500 or 600 years? Besides, it seems quite boring for a person to live that long."
"Who said you were alone? I'll accompany you!"
Yushan Kazuto picked up another longevity noodle and ate it in one bite.
Chapter 279: Little Train Toot Toot
"What should we do in the afternoon?" Yushan Kazuto and Kato Megumi were lying on the bed, looking a little decadent.
"I don't know." Kato Megumi looked a little tired.
"Why don't you take a nap first?"
Yushan Kazuto smirked.
"Hey, can't you sleep at night? Why do you have to take a nap?"
"I don't know about at night." Yushan Kazuto whispered in Kato Megumi's ear.
Kato Hui turned her head to the side: "Elementary school students can sleep if they want to. I'll just play with my phone for a while."
"No! How can you hold on to your phone on your birthday?" Yushan Heren said with a blink of his eyes.
"Hey, how can you sleep on your birthday?" Kato Megumi asked back.
"Yes!" Yushan Kazuto hugged Kato Megumi, and the curtains slowly closed.
……
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Yushan Kazuto woke up from his sleep and couldn't help but smile when he saw Kato Megumi sleeping in his arms.
"Mei, get up." Yushan Kazuto patted Kato Megumi gently.
Kato Megumi opened her eyes dazedly and glanced at her phone. The curtains in the room had good light-blocking properties, and the room was completely dark.
"It's only three o'clock. You must be sleepy, elementary school student."
"Hey, hey, don't forget that you are taking a nap!"
……
Walking on the road, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help laughing when he thought of Kato Megumi's performance just now.
"Elementary school student, what are you laughing at?" Kato Megumi said dissatisfiedly.
"Mei, I think you can change the time on your cell phone to 24-hour format." Yushan Heren's eyebrows curved.
"It's all the fault of the elementary school students." Kato Megumi said.
"Hey, why blame me?" Yushan Heren blinked and asked.
"Because I don't usually have the habit of taking a nap." Kato Megumi said.
Most Japanese people do not have the habit of taking naps, and Kato Megumi is no exception. She is groggy when she just wakes up, so it is normal for her to take a nap as sleep at night.
"Xiao Hui is making excuses."
"It's all the fault of the elementary school students anyway."
……
"Hey, amusement park, do you think I'm an elementary school student like you?" Kato Megumi said.
"No, I'm here to show you something." Yushan Kazuto grinned and led Kato Megumi into the memorial room of the amusement park.
In the center of the memorial room, there is a huge photo album. The first page of the album is a large bird's-eye view.
"This seems to be a photo taken on the first day the amusement park opened." Kato Megumi blinked and said.
"That's right, Xiaohui guessed right." Yushan Heren said.
"Well."
Kato Megumi suddenly remembered that all the rides at the amusement park were free on the day it opened, and her parents had brought her there to play.
“Hui, try looking around and see if you can find yourself.” Yushan Heren raised his eyebrows and chuckled.
Kato Megumi flipped through the photos, searching carefully. After three minutes, she still couldn't find herself: "It's not in the photo."
"Hahaha, of course it's not in this photo, because it's on the second page!"
Yushan Kazuto turned to the second page and saw Kato Megumi holding a primary school student's sun hat, her little hands tightly grasping her mother's clothes, following behind her parents.
Kato Megumi looked at Yushan Kazuto, her expression somewhat annoyed, but more of surprise.
"Did your sister tell you?" Kato Megumi asked softly.
"Sister Hongmei didn't come that day again." Yushan Kazuto said.
Kato Megumi thought about it carefully and realized that Kato Hiromi did not come to the amusement park that day.
So, this photo was either discovered by Kazuto Yuyama himself, or told to him by Kato Megumi's parents.
"Mei, do you remember that little train that you always wanted to ride but there was always a queue?" Yushan Heren said with a blink.
"Did Mom and Dad tell you?"
"That's not the case." Yushan Heren said.
"Hmm..." Kato Megumi stared at Yushan Kazuto, making Yushan Kazuto a little nervous.
"Don't look at me like that! I won't tell you the source of the information." Yushan Kazuto laughed.
"Humph, the elementary school student is indeed a bad boy, not well behaved at all."
Since Yushan Kazuto didn't want to talk about it, Kato Hui didn't want to ask any more questions: "I don't remember much about the little train, but the little train has stopped running now."
This amusement park was only popular for a short while when it first opened, but then it quickly fell into obscurity and many of its attractions were discontinued.
"It can be reopened even if it is suspended." Yushan Heren said, taking out two small pink train tickets from his pocket.
There is a cherry blossom pattern printed on the train ticket, just like the cherry blossom bookmark that Kato Megumi gave to Hayama Kazuto.
……
The two walked to the small train area, where a staff member was standing next to the train waiting. When he saw Yushan and others showing their tickets, he hurriedly greeted them.
The two of them got on the train, which had been inspected and had a new layer of stickers on it.
The seat is a little hard and crowded, not very comfortable. The train is not thrilling either, the most dangerous part is just a steep slope of 30 degrees.
After all, it is designed for children. The seats are neither too spacious nor too stimulating. When it first opened, children were the majority of the people sitting there.
However, its design is not desirable. One of the tracks passes through the nearby park woods, giving it the feeling of a forest trail.
There is one more
There is a fairy tale corridor filled with colorful comics of various fairy tales.
"Mei, don't blink."
The train was about to enter the forest path, Yushan Kazuto reminded.
Kato Megumi looked at Hayama Kazuto and said, "You're not even allowed to blink. This is a bit too much for an elementary school student!"
"I was afraid you wouldn't be able to see clearly if you blinked."
