Why is the Demon King like this?

They bought three large boxes of stuff at the pet store, and the store said they would arrange for it to be delivered directly to the designated location. So the two of them left empty-handed again—the cans of meat that Arisugawa Asuka had bought were also placed there.

In the end, Keisuke Ao was still unable to get any information from Arisugawa about what she was trying to say.

Is it because the girl is too shy to speak up?

It doesn't matter... Lord Demon Lord is concentrating on thinking about what high school students in Tokyo should be like.

Without a doubt, the original owner's memories, being of such poor quality, are of no value whatsoever.

When asked, Arisugawa Asuka simply smiled and remained silent. Although her reproachful expression was exceptionally beautiful, Ao Keisuke only felt pressure.

Back at the hospital, Xiaoxue curled up in her warm enclosure and slept.

The female doctor in charge happened to come out of the corridor with a stack of X-ray photos and examination reports in her hand. She immediately beckoned to Aokiji when she saw him.

"Mr. Qinggui, let's discuss the treatment plan."

"Judging from the video, Yuki's fracture is not particularly serious, which is why she was able to move on her own."

On the other hand, considering that it is only 7 months old and its body is in a stage of rapid development, and that stray cats are generally in worse health, the examination results do not support immediate surgery.

Therefore, my suggestion is to reduce the fracture under local anesthesia and then fix it with an external plaster cast and splint; there's no need for an internal steel plate.

Having a steel plate inserted requires surgery, and some hospitals will definitely go to great lengths to operate if they can, while also taking a cut to your wallet.

His medical skills were so dual-wielding, it was terrifying.

"Let's use an external device then." Aokiji himself also preferred this option. After all, he could command the kitten and didn't need to worry too much about secondary trauma. Moreover, Yuki was very intelligent, so perhaps he could try other methods to speed up the healing process.

"Let's have the surgery this afternoon. We can observe Yuki's condition again at noon, since the fracture should be treated as soon as possible."

"no problem."

Once the treatment plan was finalized, there was nothing more for Aokiji to do.

Looking at Little Snow in the enclosure, she was sleeping in a crooked position, looking completely carefree.

"Arisugawa-kun, I've troubled you so much this morning, let me treat you to a meal," he said.

"Huh? Is that okay?"

Arisugawa Asuka was taken aback by what she heard. She had realized that she had said something wrong, so she had been trying to ease the tension and had almost forgotten what she was about to say.

If I were to have dinner with Keisuke Ao, the atmosphere might be fine.

"Of course, please do."

Keisuke Ao solemnly said that, putting everything else aside, the girl's spirituality alone was enough for him to get to know her better.

Ideally, one should subtly inquire about daily habits in order to discover potential ways to enhance spirituality.

Ordinary rules can make people extraordinary, but it is often only the exceptional that can lead to sainthood.

There is still a huge gap between one's own spirituality and the ability to cast spells. If we wait for gradual progress, it will take forever.

If we don't encounter anything special, that's fine, but once we do, how could the Demon King possibly let us go?

—Of course he wouldn't admit that there was an element of wanting to discuss with Arisugawa Asuka what a real Tokyo high school student should be like.

Asuka Arisugawa left her Pomeranian at the hospital as well, and the two washed their hands and left together.

"Arisugawa-kun, is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"Let me think about it!"

"Yes, please prioritize the deliciousness and don't worry about the price."

"Ah, Qinggui-kun, you really do say some really surprising things sometimes!" Arisugawa Asuka laughed again. "Then I won't be polite, shall we go get some eel rice?"

"Eel rice? Excellent!"

Asuka Arisugawa took a small parasol out of her handbag.

"Qinggui, would you mind sharing an umbrella with me?"

Aoki looked at her; the girl's gentle and kind smile had a unique charm that made it hard to refuse.

However, Keisuke Ao shook his head slightly and explained, "It's not because I mind, it's just because I'm wearing a sun hat, and this umbrella is so small it can't support two people."

"I see~"

Asuka Arisugawa's voice sounded like singing: "Although Aokae-kun isn't like the boys in the class, he might be surprisingly more popular."

Qing Keisuke:?

As noon approached, the streets were filled with intense heat, and the sweltering air made it difficult to breathe.

The girl's cheeks flushed, and cute beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.

"It's so hot~ Is it really okay for Qinggui to be wearing a mask like that?"

"Um."

"Hey—there's nobody around anyway, why don't we just pick them?"

Aokiji's eyes twitched. He hesitated for two seconds between suffering from heatstroke and taking off his mask, but decided to listen to the advice.

Asuka Arisugawa subconsciously glanced at Keisuke Ao's profile... The boy's Adam's apple was unexpectedly alluring.

"Look, your face is all red from covering it." The girl looked away and walked briskly.

After walking for several minutes under the blazing sun, the two finally reached the subway entrance, no longer suffering from the double scorching heat of the sun and the concrete ground.

"Let's go eat at 'Hatsukawa' in Taitung Ward. Their grilled eel is really good; it's been around for decades. If you're going in the evening, you need to make a reservation in advance!"

"Does Arisugawa know a lot about Tokyo's food?" Keisuke Ao's eyes lit up.

"No, not really. My father often shares with me which restaurants are good when he comes home from work, and sometimes he takes me there when he's on vacation."

Uncle, please include me if you don't mind!

Qing Guijie was about to speak but stopped.

As the train started moving, the two stood in a corner, drawing the attention of everyone in the carriage. Aoki Keisuke could hear some people whispering among themselves.

"Do you need to put your mask back on?" Arisugawa Asuka asked quietly.

"No need, you can think of it as them watching you."

"Um?"

Is he praising himself? Or is he joking?

We arrived safely in Taitung Ward, and with Asuka Arisugawa leading the way, we soon reached our destination.

"The shop in Chuchuan is not big and has a nostalgic style. They like to decorate it with pebbles, plants, bamboo lattice and white noren. It is also a place that many people like to take photos."

"Hmm... I only care about how they taste."

"Eh—the legendary gourmet?"

Enter the store and take a seat.

In a daze, Qing Keijie felt as if he had been running around for food for the past few days since he transmigrated.

What kind of Rice Demon King is this?!

But what's wrong with being a food connoisseur... at least you won't have to worry about meals every day.

Some say that Japanese people like to eat light and elegant food, and that they fart a lot. But rather than saying they like it, it's more accurate to say that they didn't have much to eat in the first place.

Once supplies are plentiful, how many people will still enjoy kaiseki cuisine?

Similar to the joke about a certain army stew being hailed as a classic, these are all examples of public intellectual news that shouldn't be taken too seriously.

Keisuke Ao had a big appetite and ordered the largest portion of four pieces, while Arisugawa ordered two pieces.

To ensure the eel is fresh and tender, it must be killed and grilled on the spot, and then brushed with sauce layer by layer. The temperature, dipping sauce, and the part of the eel to be grilled are all very important.

There are several ways to eat just a bowl of rice.

Asuka Arisugawa tirelessly explained the benefits of eel rice to Keisuke Ao, who was eating it for the first time. The Demon King was impressed but didn't understand. However, the girl's pleasant voice made the meal less boring and instead aroused a lot of anticipation.

Eel rice, bring it on!
