If I don't capture the girl, I will die

Even if there are more and more people.

"Have you finished shopping for clothes?" Ji Qi asked as he saw Kato Megumi start to change direction.

"Yes~"

"Just two of them?"

"Yeah. Although there are two nice-looking ones, there are still many things to buy later. If I buy them, my budget may not be enough."

Kato Megumi quickened her pace a little and flexed her white and tender fingers, as if she was calculating how much money she had left.

Ji Qi opened his mouth, but didn't say "I'll buy it for you".

With his current wealth, he can certainly afford it easily.

But their relationship hasn't reached that stage yet.

It's true that he doesn't mind, but Kato Megumi might be different. Good intentions don't always lead to good results.

……

Chapter 180: Old couple?

"Senior, do you like this? I quite like it."

"I'm okay."

"I wonder what Izumi-chan's taste is like."

"She has weird tastes..."

After shopping for clothes, Ji Qi and Kato Megumi went to the supermarket.

By the way, although there are many discounted foods in the mall, food safety can still be guaranteed.

Japanese people are extremely strict about food safety, so you can buy with confidence even if the product is heavily discounted.

In this busy Lawson convenience store, Ji Qi was pushing the shopping cart for Kato Megumi, who was chatting with him in front about daily life and interacting with him normally.

They don't look like an ordinary couple, but more like an old married couple...

When they walked to the daily necessities section, Kato Megumi suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Ah, it seems that the shampoo at home is almost used up."

Ji Qi also bought a lot of things by the way.

The shopping cart was quickly filled with a variety of items.

"Wow, we bought a lot of things." Kato Megumi whispered while waiting in line to check out.

After a pause, Ji Qi said very naturally: "Yes, it's too troublesome to pay separately, so I'll swipe the card. After all, I bought more things."

"Hit? I don't think this is a good idea. It makes you spend money~"

"It's okay, there are still a lot of people waiting behind. Otherwise, Xiaohui can just give me something later."

"Um...okay."

After all, it is the nature of this country not to cause trouble to others.

Knowing that what Ji Qi said was the time, Kato Megumi didn't act too pretentious and nodded generously.

At the same time, it also shows that the relationship between the two people has quietly become closer.

After paying the bill with their cards, they deposited their two large bags of shopping at the mall counter because they had to continue their date.

It's noon.

There are more and more people.

Even in the spacious shopping mall, with the air-conditioning on the lowest setting, the air was still a bit stuffy.

Himeshichi and Kato Megumi went to the central square.

This is a store where you can enjoy unlimited desserts by just showing your receipt.

Although he was not short of money, Ji Qi was not stupid. Why did he have to pay for something when it was free?

"I had a lot of fun today." Kato Megumi said quietly, eating the cake in small bites like a rabbit.

Although her tone didn't change at all, Ji Qi could hear the happiness she wanted to express.

What a magical girl.

"That's true. Let's go out and play together again if we have the chance." Ji Qi, whose ability to flirt with girls has now become a passive skill, blurted out the words without thinking.

"sure."

Unexpectedly, the girl in the white beret took a sip of the cold drink and agreed without hesitation.

The air around the two of them was filled with a youthful and sweet atmosphere.

There were no particularly big surprises, nor any ambiguity between lovers.

It’s just ordinary people shopping, ordinary people talking, and ordinary people eating desserts.

The unremarkable development constitutes a pleasant time of simple happiness.

It is true that there is unlimited self-service here, but neither Ji Qi nor Kato Megumi are the kind of people who are willing to take advantage of small opportunities. After properly relaxing their fatigue, they continued to take the elevator and started shopping.

In this store that sells almost everything, Ji Qi saw a musical instrument store.

"Would you like to accompany me to take a look inside?" Ji Qi pointed at the shop which had few customers and asked Kato Hui.

"Okay."

As soon as you open the door, it feels like you have entered another world.

The jazz music is overwhelming. The soft timbre and the sound of the trumpet are flowing, intoxicating and bringing people into a state of relaxation and happiness.

There were few people in the store. Those who were there were mostly adults. A middle-aged man with wrinkles on his face was sitting at the counter, dozing off.

Ji Qi looked around. Although this musical instrument store was not very big, it had a complete range of items.

Everything should be there.

Ji Qi passed the area where pianos, guitars and flutes were displayed and went straight to the area where violins were displayed.

Kato Hui, who was following Ji Qi, asked curiously, "Senior, do you want to play the violin?"

"No, I just want to try it myself. I drew a comic about music, and the violin plays a big role in it, but I have never been exposed to it before. Although the videos and information I watched online are quite useful, it is still better to try it myself."

Ji Qi explained.

It would have been fine if I didn’t have the opportunity before, but now that I have it, I naturally have to work hard.

In order to make his comics more impeccable and better, he recently bought several books and music scores about violin, but he still felt that something was missing.

He didn't know any friends who could play the violin, so he had to go on his own.

"I know this. The comic is called Your Lie in April, right? I read it every week~~"

There was one more thing that Kato Megumi kept in her heart and didn't say.

The seniors are so amazing, and they are still working hard...

Ji Qi was not surprised that Xiao Hui knew about this. It must have been that guy Aki Tomoya who introduced her to this.

Their social circle is very small. It's easy to guess.

Taking down an ordinary violin for display, Ji Qi tried to play it using standard posture.

These are what he learned from watching other people's videos.

To draw this type of comics, you must at least be clear about what the specific actions are.

Otherwise, it would be a joke in the eyes of professionals.

tsk...

That's really ugly.

Ji Qi himself looked disgusted. He was pulling according to the standards taught in the book.

Do you want to buy one to take back?

Ji Qi suddenly asked, "Xiao Hui, do you want to learn a musical instrument?"

"…Although I envy others who can play musical instruments, if I really have to learn it, I don't think I have the perseverance to stick with it, right?" Kato Megumi said in distress, admitting her problem directly.

"That's right~"

Ji Qi, who was also an ordinary person before, deeply agrees with this.

Holding this ordinary violin, Ji Qi walked towards the cashier. The jazz music playing in the store was like an undercurrent.

When paying, Ji Qi asked if he could help take him home.

After all, they had bought so many things before, and it would be impossible to take all the things at once if they took a violin.

If not, I can only buy it next time.

As for when the next time will be...who knows.

It's nothing important.

"Well, sure, but it'll cost extra," the store manager said lazily.

Ji Qi nodded. It was definitely impossible to ask others to give it away for free.

After paying the bill and filling in the address, Ji Qi turned around and walked out of the room with Kato Megumi.

When they reached out to open the door, the music suddenly became louder and louder, as if it was trying to push their bodies out of the door.

……

Chapter 181 The Heroine Who Doesn’t Raise the Flag

"Senior, what do you like?"

Having visited almost all the places they wanted to visit, Kato Megumi pulled her white beret and asked softly.

For Ji Qi, who has a strong, steady personality and is very proactive, Xiaohui really doesn't know what to give him.

"I do not know either……"

After thinking for a while, Ji Qi said truthfully. He had everything he deserved and wanted. He was never a person who treated himself badly in life.

Not only Kato Megumi was thinking about what to give Ji Qi, but Ji Qi was the same.

After all, Sagiri has received so much care from her. Maybe she will receive more care in the future. Besides, this is the first time they go shopping alone, so it’s better to leave a souvenir, right?

However, the inexperienced Ji Qi had no idea what to give.

"That's really difficult~"

Walking aimlessly, they unknowingly saw many claw machines around them.

"Xiaohui, do you like playing this?" Ji Qi stopped and looked at the cute dolls and anime-related things in the claw machine, and asked with interest.

Hearing this, Kato Megumi blinked her big eyes. She didn't act tsundere like an ordinary girl, but said honestly: "I haven't played for a long time. I'm quite interested."

"Okay, I'll go change the coins."

Although there are no discounts here, there are still quite a few people coming to grab dolls in the afternoon.

Most of them are junior and senior high school students, and occasionally there are adult couples who stay in front of the claw machines with great interest.

After waiting in line for a while in front of the machine, Ji Qi directly exchanged for 3,000 yen coins, which made the people around him look at him a little sideways.

The coins were very heavy, and one hand could not hold them all.

At this time, Kato Megumi seemed to be aware of his embarrassment, and took out her wallet at the right time and helped him put the coins in.

Ji Qi smiled at the gentle girl: "Thank you."

Xiaohui shook her head.

"What do you want to play?" Ji Qi asked while noticing that Kato Megumi seemed eager to try, sighing that Xiaohui was indeed an ordinary girl.

Xiaohui found an empty ordinary claw machine.

There are cute dolls in there, and some things related to anime.

Kato Hui handed him the coin with a gentle smile that made people feel like spring breeze, "Senior, please go first."
