Comics, daily stories

"It's just that we haven't had the chance yet," Nomiyama said confidently.

"It's not that you don't have time, you just don't want to..." Eriri Sawamura's voice softened.

Nomiyama and Yukinoshita exchanged a silent glance before looking away.

Nomiyama looked up and thought for a moment, then chose to deny it: "All you do all day is draw doujinshi, and since you've never invited me, I thought selling doujinshi at comic conventions was your only hobby."

No, going anywhere with you is my hobby; Eriri Sawamura kept her words to herself, just biting into her takoyaki.

Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Eriri, who was standing a seat away, and chose to change the subject: "So, Nomiyama-kun, where are you going?"

“Go wherever you like,” Nomiyama replied simply.

"Oh?"

"Go to where Mr. Pan is."

"Oh," Yukino Yukinoshita replied simply, then looked at his constantly fiddling with his phone. "And then? Nomiyama-kun, what are you doing right now?"

"Forehead..."

Nomiyama stopped what he was doing: "Well, Haruno and Megumi got separated, so I told them to meet at Mr. Pan's doll shop."

"Oh? You're not worried about making Kato angry?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at him coldly.

"What are you saying, Yukinoshita-san?" Nomiyama put away his phone, carefully reached out, hooked his finger with hers, and their little fingers intertwined, swaying quietly.

"I'm just worried that if I go too late, you won't like it."

"I like you for liking those things."

"Ha, what a clever way to avoid answering." The girl wasn't fooled.

"dislike?"

The girl remained silent.

The 198th Paru Ball, I insist on having it!

Nomiyama turned around and looked thoughtfully at the Paluka in Yukinoshita's hand.

He was absolutely certain that Yukinoshita had been hitting him with that thing, but he hadn't felt a thing at all, not even the slightest touch.

It brought neither wind nor sound. If he hadn't actually seen it with his own eyes, Nomiyama wouldn't have believed that the thing had just touched his forehead.

He turned back and continued walking in front of them, thinking about some things from the past.

When I first saw the Paruballs, I pulled a whole bunch of them up from the river, but Yukinoshita said they all disappeared.

Looking at it now, it has indeed disappeared... It bounces off after hitting it and disappears automatically.

In that case, during her three years of elementary school... I don't know how many times Yukinoshita secretly hit him with these silent Palu balls.

Now it's all good; we're not sneaking around anymore, we're openly throwing them at his forehead.

It didn't matter if he got hit, it didn't hurt anyway. In the vague memories, Xuewan seemed to like hitting him with this kind of ball every day.

So, what exactly is the purpose of this broken ball?

It can't just be smashed for fun, right?

"Eri, I have something to tell you." Yukino Yukinoshita took out another Palkia, her tone slightly more serious.

"..." Eriri Sawamura watched as the strange ball quietly landed on the sidewalk and then disappeared.

It feels unfair; his special ability infected Yukino, but not himself.

After hesitating for a moment, Eriri Sawamura chose to ask in return, "Yukino, you know magic?"

Yukino glanced at Eriri, who seemed to accept the anomaly with ease, threw the Palkia in her hand at his head, and then took out another one: "You can use it as magic, or you can use it as a superpower."

She reached out and handed the Paluki to Eriri: "Try it, see what you see when you hold it in your hand."

Eriri Sawamura obediently accepted it.

With anticipation, she glanced around, then her eyes drooped, and she said with a hint of disappointment, "No, I can't see anything."

As expected, Yukino Yukinoshita knew that the descriptions of those special items were only visible to the owner of the fishing rod, but she didn't want Eriri to see the description of the Palkia.

With her gaze fixed on the person a few meters ahead, she said, "Hold the Palu ball tight, look at the wild mushroom, look carefully, look intently."

"Hmm?" Eriri Sawamura asked, puzzled, but she still obediently gripped the Palkia in her hand and looked at him, who was a few meters away.

The air began to distort and deform, and something seemed to emerge.

"What did you see?" Yukino Yukinoshita's expression remained calm, but her eyes flickered.

Eriri Sawamura stared at the line of text, somewhat uncertain: "It looks like...dozens of zeros?"

"Then, after dozens of zeros, there's a 1?"

"I see." Yukino Yukinoshita reached out and took the Palkia from her hand, looking at the person in front of her with a cold gaze.

According to his research, normally, this kind of Palu ball product could not catch him, and there was no chance of it. So the fact that there was a chance meant that he was willing to be caught.

Even a small chance is still a chance.

"Yukino, does that number mean anything?" Eriri Sawamura asked, looking at her friend who seemed to be in a bad mood. She reached out and took her arm.

Without stopping, Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Eriri, who had come over specifically to comfort her, and felt a little helpless.

Soon, this distress and helplessness turned into anger towards him.

He raised his hand and threw the ball, which represented 0.0000001%, at the back of his head.

"It's proof of some scumbag's infidelity."

Proof of a scumbag's infidelity? Eriri Sawamura stared blankly, dozens of zeros, almost a hundred. What could such a probability, which is unlikely even if the world were to end, prove?

Proof of a scumbag's infidelity? Nomiyama sensed the rising malice behind him and pondered deeply.

Can a ball like that tell me I'm cheating? Are you kidding me?

......

Kato Megumi's eyes flickered slightly as she watched the three approaching figures.

It seems he managed to get away with it again.

"Kazehaya, Eriri, Yukinoshita-kun."

Nomiyama smiled and said, "Megumi."

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her, who always seemed quiet and composed, with a calm expression, and prepared to greet her.

"Waaaaah!!!"

Yukino's voice broke the silence as the group stared at each other, and she ran towards her younger sister.

"Waaaaah! Yukino, you suddenly disappeared. I thought you'd been abducted by aliens."

Holding her younger sister tightly, Yukinoshita Haruno rubbed against her vigorously.

actor.

Nomiyama glanced at her, then looked away with disgust and walked toward his other girlfriend.

He reached out, took the balloon string tied to his wrist, and handed it to her: "Hui, do you want some? I just bought it at the mall."

Yukino Yukinoshita was dealing with her older sister with a helpless expression when she heard these words. Her gaze shifted, and her face turned cold.

Did you give the balloons I bought to another girl?

Kato Megumi shifted her gaze and noticed that all three of them had a balloon tied to their wrists. She shook her head and said softly, "No need, Kazehaya can keep it for himself."

"Alright." Nomiyama was not surprised by Megumi's decision. He simply rewound the silk thread around his wrist and walked into the shop.

"Let's go see Mr. Pan."

Upon hearing "Mr. Pan," Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze froze for a moment before she quickly regained her composure, reached out, and pulled her sister into the shop.

"Sister, stop fooling around. Let's go see Mr. Pan first."

"No, I'm not interested in Mr. Pan," Yukino Yukinoshita said, as she was dragged along with an indifferent expression.

“Megumi.” Eriri Sawamura walked to another friend of hers, stopped, and looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Yes, I am." Kato Megumi met her gaze quietly.

After a while, she reached out, touched Eriri's hair, and took her hand: "Let's go, don't keep them waiting."

Eriri Sawamura bit her lip and pulled her back: "Megumi, when is it?"

Kato Megumi stopped, surprised by Eriri's sudden firmness, but she still answered truthfully: "After Haruno-senpai left, I went to Kazehaya's side, and we confirmed our relationship after Yukinoshita-kun came back."

Eriri Sawamura looked up, speechless.

Kato Megumi looked at Eriri and her eyes softened slightly: "Eriri, thinking too much will only cause trouble."

"Let's go, they're waiting for us."

After saying that, Kato Megumi exerted a little force and led Eriri into the store.

As Eriri Sawamura was led step by step, some thoughts inevitably drifted through her mind.

If I think too much, will I be the one who gets annoyed, or will you be the one who gets annoyed, or will they both be the ones who get annoyed?

Lost in thought, the two of them had already entered the store.

Eriri Sawamura looked up and watched Yukino, who seemed to be studying the giant Mr. Pan with a more realistic yet obsessive and careful demeanor, and watched Kazehaya take out his phone and take pictures of Yukino from various angles, and watched the smile in his eyes.

The deep sea in my heart was silent for a while, then the surface began to ripple, and then the waves surged. Finally, the waves piled up, and the waves became magnificent. My emotions surged like a tsunami.

No, Mom said, life is your own.

I'm determined to think about it! I'm determined to do it!

I refuse to accept this!

Eriri's 199th Action!

"Brother-in-law, remember to send me a copy of the photos you just took." Yukinoshita Haruno bent her elbow.

Nomiyama looked at the two people flanking Eriri on either side, then looked away, disdainfully saying, "Couldn't you have taken the picture yourself?"

Yukino sighed, "It's rare to see Yukino so cute, I can't help but be captivated."

Nomiyama glanced at Yukino, who had clearly heard, then turned to look at the actor beside him and scoffed, "Hypocrite."

Yukinoshita Haruno, seemingly puzzled, tugged at his clothes: "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"

Nomiyama moved aside, looking disgusted: "Don't touch me."

Yukino's voice turned unfriendly: "Don't touch me? What do you mean? Brother-in-law? Aren't we family?"

Nomiyama moved further away: "One thing at a time, don't come near me now."

"Oh? This mere son-in-law of the Yukinoshita family is so fierce to my sister?"

"Get lost! I'm not a live-in son-in-law. I'm going to marry Yukinoshita into the Nomiyama family."

"What? Just because you married my sister, does that mean you don't have to call me 'older sister' anymore?"

"If I don't call you that, how do you even relate to the word 'older sister'?"

"What's not right about this? Tell me how old you are."

"Just because someone is older doesn't mean they're an older sister. Can't they be an auntie?" Nomiyama sneered. "Hello, Auntie."

Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback for a moment, then decisively kicked him.

Nomiyama twisted his body to dodge and ran away.

Yukinoshita Haruno caught up in the blink of an eye.

Kato Megumi looked at the two people running ahead with a deep gaze. Kazehaya was still too much of a womanizer.

Eriri Sawamura lowered her head, lost in her own world, quietly contemplating how to confess her feelings.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked helplessly at the people who had been playing around and running ahead, then paused slightly, wondering why her older sister seemed to be running a little fast.
