Kyoto: I just want to be a gentleman

-----------------

Her expression...looks intoxicated...

It was not until Watanabe Hideyuki fully digested the news that he thought of an important thing today.

Find out the reasons behind it all.

"Why do you like me?"

Kitano Chiharu said nothing, but stared at Hideyuki.

Watanabe Hideyuki could only repeat the question.

"I remember..."

Kitano Chiharu began to search her memories.

Xiu Xing was horrified to find out.

The surrounding environment is changing little by little.

Only then did he remember.

This is a dream!

Kitano Chiharu suddenly put on a maid outfit, her body detached from the frame, and she took Hideyuki's hand. Her body slowly floated up until she flew away from the surface and into space, traveling through time and space and reaching another higher dimension.

The two people stood together and overlooked the entire Kyoto Prefecture from a strange God's perspective.

This feeling is indescribably strange, and it feels more like a dream within a dream?

Especially, the owner of the dream is standing next to him and watching this memory from the same perspective as him.

...

Kyoto Prefecture, Ukyo Ward.

It's eleven o'clock in the evening and there's a cool breeze.

As night falls, the neon lights of the city shine like stars, illuminating the streets and alleys. A young man drags his tired steps, ending a long day, and slowly walks towards his apartment where he lives alone.

He plans to change his job.

The reason is that we can't see the future.

As a person who was reborn, he brought shame to his predecessors by not achieving the achievements he should have at such a young age.

In order to achieve the simple goal of "surviving", he spent every day in the three-square-meter kitchen of the izakaya, dealing with a group of headless shrimps and alcoholic uncles.

(He sees no difference between the two.)

This kind of life made him feel bored and confused, as if he was trapped in a cycle from which he could not escape.

What job to change has become a big problem for him now.

He didn't have anything he was good at, and it was the same in his previous life.

He was very distressed about this.

Just as he was passing through a narrow alley with a lot on his mind, he noticed a figure huddled in the corner, shivering, under the dim street light.

It was a little girl. She hugged her knees tightly, her face was pale, and her eyes revealed helplessness and confusion.

Did you get lost from your parents?

The young man frowned slightly and stopped involuntarily. He was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs, but facing the situation in front of him, his sense of morality made it impossible for him to turn a blind eye.

He walked slowly to the girl and asked softly, "Little girl, are you okay? Do you need help?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hideyuki met those amber eyes that made it impossible to look away.

This little girl is unexpectedly pretty.

Her long silver hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her originally neat bangs were now a little messy, but these factors did not affect the girl's delicate face, but instead added a different kind of beauty to her.

The girl stared at Xiuxing with empty eyes without saying a word, which made Xiuxing feel uneasy.

"Are you... calling me...?" After a moment, the girl came to her senses and answered in a hoarse voice.

Seeing that the girl finally responded, the boy felt relieved.

He was almost scared to death and called Yaoyaoling.

Where is this place?

This is Neon, the land of ghost stories.

This minute seemed extremely long to him. The movies in the various series, including Slit-mouthed Woman, Tomie, and Sadako, kept repeating in his mind like a cursory viewing.

He shook his head, trying to drive out the absurd scene that had just appeared in his mind.

The boy took a deep breath and tried to look friendly: "Well, little friend, do you want me to take you to the police station?"

The girl was slightly stunned, as if she didn't understand what he meant.

The boy patiently explained: "If you and your parents get lost, we can go to the police station to find them." As he said that, he stretched out his hand to help the girl up.

However, the girl did not stand up as he expected. She still sat there, staring at the boy's hand with empty eyes for a long time, and then slowly said: "I... have no home..."

Chapter 54 Double Dream (2)

Hearing this, the boy's heart trembled. He looked at the thin and helpless girl in front of him, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

"What's your name?" the boy asked.

"Kitano...Chiharu..."

How to do?

At this moment, the boy was in panic and confusion.

Send it to the police station?

It's too late.

It would be dangerous to leave her here.

The boy made a decision in his heart. He took a deep breath, squatted down to look at the girl, and said in a soft but firm voice: "Then Kitano, little friend...are you willing to come home with me?"

The girl was stunned, as if she didn't expect him to say that. A flash of surprise and confusion flashed in her eyes, but was quickly replaced by an indescribable emotion.

She thought for a moment, then nodded slowly and stood up carefully.

...

Listening to the sound of running water coming from the shower, the boy finally came back to his senses from his trance.

I really brought him home...

He found a rarely worn white T-shirt and shorts from his closet, and also prepared a clean towel and bathrobe and placed them at the door of the shower room.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sound of water in the shower gradually stopped.

Chiharu Kitano came out wearing the bathrobe he provided.

Her complexion looked much better, at least no longer so pale and weak. Her long hair was wet and a little messy on her shoulders, but even so, it still couldn't hide her bright amber eyes.

"Thank you." Kitano Chiharu said softly. Her voice was still a little hoarse, but at least it was clear enough to hear.

"Would you like something to drink?" The young man took a cup of black tea from the coffee table and handed it to Qianchun, "To warm you up."

Qianchun took the black tea and held the cup tightly with both hands. She took a sip gently. The fragrance and warmth of the tea instantly spread in her mouth, calming her mood a little.

"Watanabe Hideyuki, 16 years old, Luonan Gaosheng."

Not knowing what to say, the boy simply started by introducing himself to break the silence.

"Kitano...Chiharu, 16 years old, private school in Kosaka."

Eh!! ? ?

The young man looked at Chiharu in shock. He could not imagine that this delicate girl like a doll was actually the same age as him, and was a student from Kansaka Private School.

Kansaka Private School is a very famous and expensive local private school, known for its rigorous education and excellent academic performance.

The boy then noticed that the girl's backpack had the logo of Kansaka Private School printed on it.

After realizing that the girl in front of him was the same age as him, some things were no longer difficult to say.

"What are your plans next?" the boy asked tentatively.

Chiharu shook her head: "I don't know... I just want to find a place to stay quietly now."

"Kitano-san, you can sleep in my room tonight." The boy pointed to his bedroom, "I'll sleep on the sofa in the living room."

Chiharu was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect him to say that. She looked up at him, a hint of gratitude and hesitation flashing in her eyes.

"Is this...too much trouble for you?" she said in a low voice.

"No, no." The boy waved his hand with a sincere smile on his face, "I live alone anyway. Besides, you need a safe place to rest now, don't you?"

Qianchun was silent for a while, then nodded gently. She knew that now she really needed someone to rely on, a place where she could temporarily forget the pain and confusion.

The boy took Chiharu to his bedroom and briefly introduced the facilities in the room and how to use them. Chiharu listened silently with a faint smile on her face, as if she was grateful for his attentiveness and consideration.

"Then... I'll go to the living room first." The boy said, and walked out of the bedroom. He came to the living room, picked up the thin blanket and pillow on the sofa, and prepared to spend the night on the sofa.

Just as he was about to lie down, the bedroom door suddenly opened slightly, and Chiharu stuck her head out and looked at him.

"Watanabe-kun..." Her voice was trembling, as if she was trying to control her emotions, "Thank you..."

The boy smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome, Kitano-san. You need to rest now, get a good night's sleep. Everything will be fine tomorrow."

Chiharu looked at him with a determined look in her eyes. She nodded and gently closed the bedroom door.

The boy lay on the sofa, looking at the chandelier on the ceiling, with an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

It was hard to imagine that there was a beautiful girl sleeping in his bedroom.

After experiencing all this, the boy soon fell into a deep sleep, breathing steadily...

the next day.

Early in the morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the curtains onto the boy's face, he opened his eyes drowsily.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat up, and when he saw the shoes at the entrance, he realized that everything that happened last night was not a dream.
