"Huh? Why is the reward ginger soup? That stuff is spicy and doesn't taste good at all~"
"My ginger soup is sweet!"
"Really? Father isn't lying to me?"
"Okay, so Kaguya should sit here and behave."
"Okay~"
Kaguya raised her hand like she did when she was a child, let go of Aoba's clothes, and sat properly in the chair.
"Father, why is our sofa so hard?"
Her words immediately made Aoba, who was in the kitchen, break out in a black line on her forehead.
I'm really sorry that my family isn't well-off.
Before he could answer, Kaguya chuckled to herself again:
"But a hard sofa is fine too. Anywhere Father is is fine."
The girl's drowsy voice made Aoba uneasy.
He quickly prepared ginger soup in the kitchen and took out a brand new towel from the counter.
"Kaguya?"
Aoba placed the ginger soup in front of Kaguya.
Seeing that the other person had their eyes closed and seemed to be asleep, he sighed helplessly.
Use a towel to dry the girl's soaked hair.
Thanks to the makeup skills he learned from Chelsea, he can easily restore a woman's hairstyle to its original state.
Then, a cool sensation emanated from the center of his palm, turning the towel into something like an ice pack, which he then placed on the girl's forehead.
Until Kaguya's breathing stabilized.
Aoba breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the door, took out his phone, and called Hayasaka.
"Hello?! Mr. Aoba, is there any news about Miss Kaguya?"
Several hours passed.
Hayasaka Ai searched everywhere, but still couldn't find any trace of Shinomiya Kaguya.
Hayasaka, who had just finished searching a place, still had countless mud spots on his body.
After receiving Aoba's call, she clung to her last hope.
"Miss Hayasaka, don't worry, Miss Kaguya is in my shop."
Aoba sensed Hayasaka Ai's anxiety and comforted her:
"Her condition is not very good. It seems that her previous fever has not gotten better, and this time she got caught in the rain, which has made it even worse."
"Okay, I'll bring the doctor right away!!"
The words have not yet fallen.
The call was then disconnected.
Aoba chuckled helplessly, feeling the torrential rain in front of her, and reached out to touch the rain curtain.
In the blink of an eye, countless raindrops turned into ice crystals!
Crackle—the impact struck the signboard and bluestone slabs outside, scattering into ice flowers.
This is just a basic application of freezing in a 1v1 situation. (For super-exciting novels, visit Feilu Novel Network!)
To reach Esdeath's level, Aoba conservatively estimates that he would need to fight at least 6 opponents at once.
While it's not good for attacking, it's more than capable of handling food.
Oh, we need to add a little more.
It also has remarkable effects on patients with fever.
"Eh~?"
"Isn't it autumn now? Why is it snowing?"
Behind her, Kaguya had woken up at some point.
Still confused.
But her squinting eyes widened slightly, revealing the light reflected in her pupils. She got up and walked to the door as well, looking at the falling ice shards outside, tilting her head in confusion.
Autumn is here, can winter be far behind?
Aoba stretched and returned to the shop, saying softly...
"Miss Kaguya, please drink the ginger soup while it's hot."
"Next time, even if you run away from home, at least choose a nice day."
Although the girl was still in a daze, Aoba learned some little secrets about her.
But no matter how willful you are, you must protect your body.
Furthermore, you should not worry those who care about you, and avoid causing trouble for others unnecessarily.
"...Ugh, ginger soup?"
Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the sky outside, which had once again turned into a curtain of rain, her cheeks flushed and burning.
She has never liked drinking ginger soup, and she hates spicy and bitter things even more.
But just now, it seemed like in a dream, my father said that ginger soup wasn't bitter.
Want to give it a try?
Kaguya Shinomiya returned to the table and inadvertently kicked a soaking wet white towel.
Who put the towel there?
She had no recollection of it, but her improved mental state made her realize that it might have been the store manager who did it.
It must have been quite offensive of me to leave this little shop without saying goodbye last time.
But if I were to make her apologize...
In the pride of the Shinomiya family, that was something that would absolutely not be allowed.
However, there are many ways to express an apology.
Kaguya silently picked up the towel and dusted off the dust.
Then, he carefully picked up the bowl of steaming ginger soup and took a small sip.
Ok? !
The expected spiciness didn't appear; instead, it had a pleasantly sweet taste that warmed my entire body as it traveled down my esophagus.
It feels so comfortable~
Like a kitten lazily sunbathing, emitting a soft groan.
No one would notice in the quiet sound of the rain.
Kaguya Shinomiya quietly raised her eyes and looked at Aoba, who had changed back into her chef's apron at the bar.
That's a beautiful profile.
She'd been there twice, but hadn't paid much attention.
I never expected the store manager to be so beautiful.
"Hmm? Are you feeling unwell, Kaguya-san?"
Aoba had noticed Kaguya Shinomiya's gaze for a long time, but the girl's scrutinizing and probing eyes never stopped.
He couldn't help but ask.
Kaguya Shinomiya, like a thief caught red-handed, quickly looked down at the little ginger soup left.
And there was no answer.
But as she looked at it, she seemed to get a little confused again.
When I was sheltering from the rain...
Her hair looks like it's already soaked.
Even now, the sticky feeling from my clothes still lingers.
It can be enjoyed in ginger soup with a reddish-brown hue under bright yellow light.
My hair wasn't wet at all.
Kaguya Shinomiya touched her hair.
It is in a very dry state.
and. . .
Even the hairstyle was restored to be exactly the same.
Kaguya was stunned.
Could it be that the father she had been imagining had actually appeared?
"Miss Kaguya!"
suddenly.
The urgent voice from outside the door shattered Kaguya's reverie.
It's Hayasaka.
"Are you okay?"
Hayasaka's voice trembled with a hint of sobbing.
"It's okay, Hayasaka."
"You're still not fully recovered and you got caught in the rain. Come back with me and get a check-up first."
