Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard
Chapter 192 - 175 Kabuki-cho First Street

Chapter 192: Chapter 175 Kabuki-cho First Street

There’s a bulletin board on the hallway wall of the school building.

It’s used for posting promotional posters of various clubs, and the poster Hanabi drew to revitalize the Kendo Department is at the very right corner.

High school girls in pleated skirts giggle as they walk by and glance at the bamboo swords in the drawing.

Their drawings are easily recognizable in the school.

In the gym, the girls’ pale thighs line up neatly in the resting area.

The cheerleading team members are taking a break since the sports festival is officially starting next week.

"Hanabi, why do I feel like your Uesugi keeps glancing at me today?" Kyujuu Rika asked, sweating profusely as she took a sip of water.

"...Huh?"

Hanamaru Hanabi, who was pondering the liquid Uesugi fed her in the morning, looked up.

Her face, with tiny, gleaming sweat drops, had a slight flush due to the intense workout, and her legs, appearing from under her white skirt, were smooth and fair.

Little Hanabi looked at the class president’s elegant face, not knowing if it’s because she’s in love, but she seemed to get very sensitive whenever Uesugi was mentioned.

Her heart began to flutter.

"No... I don’t think so..."

"Not sure." Kyujuu Rika wasn’t clear about it, either.

After gym class in the afternoon, dressed in cool athletic gear, Hanamaru Hanabi quietly followed behind Uesugi Sakura, who was pushing a cart of basketballs to the sports equipment room.

Uesugi Sakura had already heard her movements, stopped walking, looked straight ahead with a smile, and said to the clumsy girl behind him:

"What’s up? Why so clingy today?"

Hearing his voice, Hanamaru Hanabi came to a sudden halt, checking out his back and said, "No, it’s nothing. Hanabi just wanted to help you out, Sakura-kun."

Uesugi Sakura turned his head to see her evasive eyes.

This proved she left some things unsaid.

"Hanabi wants to ask about the drink I gave you this morning, right?"

Actually, little Hanabi wanted to ask about what the class president mentioned at noon.

She feared interrupting the meeting of the Weaver Goddess, who might be irritated by her requests and do the opposite.

But she was also quite curious about the thing he gave her to drink in the morning.

Hanamaru Hanabi hesitated, nodded in response to his words, and said quietly, "Yeah, it was white, but not milk, with a strange taste."

"It’s something special, a one-of-a-kind in the world,"

A straightforward and kind person like Uesugi Sakura wouldn’t misunderstand the innocent words Hanabi said.

"What is it?" Hanamaru Hanabi asked curiously.

"A milky white nutritional drink, guaranteeing you won’t fall sick."

It cost him 10 attribute points.

When he just finished speaking, Uesugi Sakura suddenly felt that these words sounded strange.

Hmm...? Something or someone seemed off?

Hanamaru Hanabi, with a puzzled face, said, "Sakura-kun... when did you buy something that tastes so weird?"

"Quite early," Uesugi Sakura said nonchalantly, "but what’s important is that it works."

"But Hanabi didn’t feel anything special."

"Nutrition drinks don’t have specific effects, they just ensure you won’t faint while running like last time. Everyone was very concerned when little Hanabi fainted for a whole day."

Uesugi Sakura smiled lightly.

"Yeah." Hanamaru Hanabi smiled lightly as well.

They pushed the cart with the basketballs to the dimly lit sports equipment room.

Uesugi Sakura clapped his hands and turned to see Hanamaru Hanabi in her refreshing athletic gear.

The delicate muscles on her legs under her shorts were quite noticeable, and her sweaty white top defined the alluring curve from waist to upper chest.

The essence of youth manifested beautifully in her.

Her cute little face was particularly enchanting with an undeniable liveliness.

In the school, with the dim lighting in the sports equipment room, only the two of them were there; it was easy to let imaginations run wild.

"Sakura-kun..."

Hanamaru Hanabi realized he was watching her, she lowered her head and subconsciously bit her lip.

Uesugi Sakura shook his head slightly and took her hand, saying, "Let’s go home."

Exiting the door, the bright sunshine shone on their faces.

Hanamaru Hanabi turned to glance at his back, but said nothing more.

In fact, a few days ago in the backyard, he secretly kissed her, almost getting caught by the Discipline Committee.

Bashful Hanabi didn’t dare to hold hands at school for days.

Now they’re both under the Discipline Committee’s scrutiny.

——————

Hanabi went for practice again in the afternoon. Although Uesugi Sakura was really keen to see her in the midriff-baring team outfit, that area was now off-limits to boys, so he couldn’t get in.

That annoying Head of the Supporters Club never shows up at the Kendo Department when he’s there, they’ve never met several times.

Asked Shio for a favor, he only said the photos weren’t taken by him.

But as the Head of the Supporters Club, the guy must know something. Uesugi Sakura planned to confront the guy about it later.

Kyudo Club.

Dressed in a hakama of the Kyudo Club, Uesugi Sakura looked straight ahead, longbow raised high over his shoulder, releasing an arrow.

Hitting the target without fail.

The precision was nearly unbeatable, so what to do when Kyudo presented no challenge?

Uesugi Sakura never considered it a problem; from two weeks after joining the Kyudo Club, the sport became a leisure activity for him.

The tranquil atmosphere of the Kyudo Club, the bamboo bow drawn in a graceful and steady style, and the shot arrow truly represented his heart’s desire.

The fragrance of the green grass filled the dojo, providing a sense of comfort and peace.

The clear sound of the strings was way more pleasing than the Qi Union shouts from the neighboring Kendo Department.

The new club members were observing his shooting form from behind.
