"Hello, please give me this."

At a Don Quixote store near the hospital, Kato Yusuke was asking the clerk about the products on display.

"Ah, okay. What size do you need?"

"Just this size will do."

Facing the question raised by the clerk, he pointed at one of them.

Looking in that direction, what caught the clerk's eye was a large black suitcase with a promotion label on it.

——【Popular and shocking price! 13,000 yen!】

For similar products, the price is indeed good.

However, it is not so much that this product is discounted because it is a hot seller, but it is more like a helpless move due to the poor vision of the person in charge leading to slow sales.

Even so, few people still care about it.

After all, no matter how cheap the price is, if it doesn't work well, no one will buy it.

But today, this suitcase seems to finally be welcoming its owner.

"Eh——? Is this the largest suitcase you're talking about?" the male clerk couldn't help but confirm.

"Um."

Kato Yusuke nodded calmly.

Seeing this, the other party sighed in surprise.

"It's amazing, customer. Usually no one buys this size. However, this suitcase is a soft bag type and the color is only black. What do you use it for?"

Upon hearing the other party's inquiry, Kato Yusuke opened his mouth and spat out two words.

"move place."

"Ah, so that's what it is~"

The male clerk nodded repeatedly with a look of surprise on his face, and then said with a smile: "Then this suitcase is very suitable, but please be careful not to use it to store fragile items."

After studying his face for a moment, the clerk continued: "Are you going to move somewhere far away? Are you leaving Tokyo?"

Looking up at the enthusiastic clerk, Kato Yusuke nodded to express understanding and responded in a calm tone.

"Well, I won't pack fragile items, I'm just sending them to my hometown."

…

After dealing with this chatty clerk.

After spending 15,000 yen, Kato Yusuke also got a bunch of items as follows.

They are: a large suitcase, a set of cotton pajamas, and some toiletries such as toothbrushes and toothpaste, mouthwash cups, and towels.

Put loose things into the box.

After glancing at the direction indicated by the arrow on the black instrument, he picked up his suitcase and walked towards the distance.

"GuluGuluGulu——"

Accompanied by the sound of the pulley rubbing against the ground, the boy's figure gradually disappeared into the night.

◇

the other side.

Asami, who was walking on the street and came out of the hospital, scratched her hair a little irritably.

"Really, where did Katozai go to buy things at this time!"

The tone was full of reproach.

On the one hand, when the danger occurred... no, or rather before it happened, the other party did not solve Yaguchi Kyouya's problem immediately, which resulted in Sayu almost being injured.

On the other hand, when Sayu needed his company, he suddenly became unavailable.

The combination of the two made Asami's impression of Kato Yusuke much worse.

"What do you mean by getting rid of me and taking care of her? You, my boyfriend, should be aware of it!"

She complained like this, but when faced with the girl's request, she still went out to look for her.

First, I searched around the hospital, and then at nearby convenience stores and supermarkets.

No trace of Yusuke Kato has been found.

Just when she couldn't help but was about to give up.

"GuluGuluGulu——"

A strange sound suddenly came from a certain direction.

I glanced there subconsciously.

I saw a familiar slender figure just walking out of a Don Quixote on the opposite street corner, holding a black suitcase in his hand.

"Ah - Kato... Zai?"

Asami's expression changed from surprise to confusion, and her waving hand stopped.

Because there was a long-distance relationship, even she was not sure whether she had recognized the wrong person.

The other party, who was immersed in the "mobile phone", didn't seem to hear her voice, and just walked somewhere by himself.

‘Let’s go over and make sure.’ She frowned slightly, and then simply chased after him.

At the same time, he also called Kato Yusuke’s number using his mobile phone.

"beep--"

As the signal tone sounded from the receiver, Asami clearly saw that the person in the distance took something out of his pocket and then put it away.

Immediately afterwards——

The blind sound of the call being rejected also came from my ears.

'It is indeed him!' Asami gritted her teeth and thought bitterly, but then another question arose.

"Where are you going, Katozai? I mean, the hospital is not in this direction at all."

After complaining with some annoyance, the girl decided to investigate the matter to the end.

Keeping a distance that would prevent the other party from leaving her sight, Asami quietly continued to follow.

When the opponent moves forward, she moves forward, and when the opponent stops, she also stops.

Not only that, when she feels that the other person has the intention to turn back, she will also use the street bunkers to hide herself.

Just walking and stopping all the way, the surrounding environment became quiet.

When Asami felt strange, the other person seemed to be deliberately choosing a path that was rarely visited by people, and was always observing the surrounding environment.

At first, she didn't know what the other person was observing. It wasn't until she used a telephone pole to hide herself that she accidentally discovered the truth.

That's because wherever the other party stays, there will be a surveillance camera nearby.

After realizing this, Asami felt deeply puzzled and also couldn't help but have doubts.

Thinking of Sayu's worried look before leaving, a bad premonition also arose in her heart.

'Katozai, what are you going to do?'

With such doubts, Asami couldn't help but become a little nervous.

It seemed that they had finally arrived at their destination, and the other party finally stopped in front of a 6-story apartment.

The bright moon jumped out from between the clouds, casting its cool and cold moonlight, covering the people on the street with a thin veil.

The young man stopped in front of the apartment and looked at a certain room in it.

It was dark there, and no one seemed to be home.

And through the bright moonlight, Asami, who was hiding around the corner, finally saw the other person's face clearly.

Refreshing short black hair and a delicate and handsome face.

A pair of eyes as deep as a deep pool, holding an indescribable coldness.

It was the Kato Yusuke she had been looking for.

After tightening her somewhat flimsy clothes, Asami did not come forward to talk to him, but instead just observed in secret without saying a word.

‘We should have an answer soon.’ The girl thought, her expression becoming very serious.

The sleepless night wind caused a cicada to chirp.

Overtly and secretly, the two of them were quietly waiting for a result.

Maybe it's God's will in the dark.

About 5 minutes later, a couple holding hands appeared in the field of vision and walked towards this side.

"It's about you, Xiao Gong——"
