Tokyo Girlfriend Guide

Chapter 746: Eriri is really dead!

Hojo Kyosuke was checking the holiday schedule with his super brain when a scream came from the second floor:

"Kyosuke! Come quickly, Eriri can't take it anymore!"

When he turned around, he saw his sister jogging from the corridor towards the stairs. The little girl's face was filled with fear. She screamed and fell down with a thud, rolling three times.

"Ohhhh~~" Momotaro immediately made a mocking sound.

Hojo Kyosuke laughed unkindly. The little girl, like the puppy, was very suitable for wrestling. They were light and soft, so it would not be a big deal if they fell.

Kasumigaoka Utaha pushed the man next to her and said unhappily, "You're still laughing! Go up and check on Prince Ka-san!"

"Go here and go."

In fact, the corridor on the second floor is covered with wooden floor, so even if an adult falls down, it's okay as long as they don't roll down the stairs. Eriri fell several times because of her habit of sleepwalking when she got up, so later they added carpet in the corridor. If it was my sister, she would probably just get a big bump on her head if she rolled down the stairs.

Yukino in the kitchen heard the noise and anxiously leaned out to check the situation, but fortunately, the person Kashiko called out was Eriri, so no one would worry even if she said "Eriri is dying." If it was Sakura, everyone would worry that she ran to the roof to do some juggling.

Hojo Kyosuke ran up the stairs in two or three steps and picked up the dizzy little Kashiko. When he was considering whether to shake his sister's head in the opposite direction to make it even, the little girl had already regained consciousness.

The little girl's face was filled with sadness and fear. She held onto her brother's clothes tightly with her two bun-like paws and kept shouting in a sobbing voice, "Onii-chan! Onii-chan!"

"Alright, alright, it's okay. Eriri won't die. She's not someone who would die so easily!"

Hojo Kyosuke quickly comforted her in a gentle voice.

Although she trusts her brother very much, the little girl still can't help but feel flustered because of her concern for Eriri.

"Onii-chan, please go check on Eriri. She's really about to die!"

Although the two-year-old girl had no understanding of the concept of death, it did not prevent her from being afraid.

When she was scared, she stopped stubbornly calling "Kyosuke" and called him "Onii-chan" directly. But she still called Eriri by her name, just like Eriri called Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Hojo Kyosuke looked at his sister's pitiful appearance, and his heart was so happy that he almost laughed out loud. However, if that happened, they would not be able to be siblings anymore, so he could only comfort the little girl in a gentle voice:

"Okay, okay, I'll go check it out now. Even if Eriri dies, my brother can save her."

"Hmm~"

The little girl agreed softly, her long eyelashes already filled with tears.

Hojo Kyosuke turned around with his sister in his arms, and saw that Sakura, who had just disappeared, was sitting on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor, looking up at the second floor with great interest. Naoka beside her was holding a pair of pants in her hand. Oh, it turned out that Naoka was going to help me mend my pants. Senior Kasumigaoka and Yukino were all standing there, looking up at their sister's excitement, and their mother was even holding up her phone to record the video.

Alas, my poor sister, no one wants to comfort you, everyone just wants to laugh at you. Only I, your dearest brother, can only come to comfort you because no one can comfort you and I can only come to comfort you instead of watching the fun.

Holding his sister, Hojo Kyosuke walked to Eriri's door.

"Knock Knock-"

The door was not closed, and his sister obviously had no time to close the door when she crawled out, but he still closed the door.

"Eri?" Hojo Kyosuke called softly.

"Eri! Are you dead?!" Kashiko shouted impatiently.

"..."

The room was silent, as if the princess was really dead.

Kashiko then called out again: "Eriri..."

“Hahahahahahaha——!!”

A loud laugh came from the lobby on the first floor, obviously coming from Kasumigaoka Utaha. Although Sakura and the others were definitely laughing as well, everyone knew that Eriri was a person who cared about her reputation, so they all restrained themselves. Only Kasumigaoka would laugh at Eriri so wildly and wantonly.

"Not dead! Not dead! I'm really not dead!"

An annoyed voice came from the room.

Jia Shizi's eyes suddenly widened, he clapped his hands, and said happily: "Ah! Sister Shiyu made Yinglili laugh!"

The little girl was smiling from ear to ear and was extremely happy.

"..."

Hojo Kyosuke could hear the weakness in Eriri's voice just now, and he could also hear her speechlessness and anger now.

"I'm coming in?" He reached out and grabbed the door handle.

"No! No!"

Eriri screamed in panic.

It seems that this guy is in big trouble. Hojo Kyosuke frowned and secretly calculated Eriri's menstrual period.

Not yet? This guy used to stay up late and had all kinds of problems, but after meeting me, all of them are gone and he is in great shape.

"Dong dong dong dong——"

Following the sound of footsteps on the stairs, Yingliang rushed up from the first floor like a bandit.

"FBI! Open the door!"

The girl shouted in a hoarse voice.

"Yamauchi Sakura!!!"

Listening to Eriri's collapsed voice, Hojo Kyosuke could understand her feelings very well.

At this moment, Eriri was sitting on the toilet with a completely broken expression. If there was a button in her hand that could destroy the whole world, she would press it without hesitation.

"Hahahahaha——"Xn

Countless loud laughs rang out, and Sakura fell to the ground laughing. Only the cute Kashiko looked confused.

Hojo Kyosuke stopped laughing, drove Sakura away, and then reached out to close Eriri's door.

"Hey? Onii-chan, come in quickly, why are you closing the door?" asked Jia Shizi puzzledly.

"This is magic. Just close the door, and your sister Eriri will come back to life and open the door." Hojo Kyosuke said with a smile.

Jia Shizi immediately admired him: "Oh! Onii-chan is so awesome!"

Shouldn't I say I'm awesome! I'm the one who died and came back to life!

Eriri, who had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the door close, immediately became dissatisfied again.

After a few minutes, the door decorated with lilies finally opened, revealing a pale little face.

Jia Shizi immediately shouted in surprise: "Eriri!!!"

While shouting, the little girl opened her arms and motioned for Eriri to hug her quickly.

Seeing that Kashiko's sister cared about her so much, Eriri, whose face was pale and extremely weak, was very moved. However, she was very embarrassed about the request to be hugged. If she fell to the ground, she was afraid that she would use Kashiko as a cushion.

Hojo Kyosuke was very considerate and handed his sister over, then reached out an arm from behind Eriri and held the two girls, one big and one small, in his arms.

Feeling the sense of security coming from behind her, the shaky Eriri immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come in." The girl called weakly.

As she approached the door, she quietly crossed the corridor and looked towards the hall, and only felt relieved when she saw that no one was watching her.

When I entered the room, it was just as messy as before. No, it was even messier than before.

Various dolls were thrown on the floor, game discs were scattered on the desk, different things were placed on the digital screen and computer screen, and there was a pile of clothes on the bed...

This guy had a lot of fun today~

Ying Lili, who had already sat on the bed, noticed someone's gaze and immediately said fiercely, "What are you looking at!"

The girl looked around with a wandering look in her eyes, and suddenly said, "It's because Sister Jia Shizi wanted to play that I turned all the things out!"

"Hey! Is it me?" Hojo Kashiko asked in surprise.

"Yes, it's you. You just forgot. You said you wanted this Doraemon thing before. I'll give it to you!"

Eriri reluctantly stuffed a doll into the little girl's arms.

Hojo Kashiko immediately said happily: "Yeah! Thank you, Eriri, yes, it was me who messed it up!"

"..."

Actually, I already know you very well. When we first started living together, Aunt Sayuri said that she wanted to come over regularly to help you clean, but you refused because you were afraid of being embarrassed in front of Senior Kasumigaoka. Have you forgotten all these things?

Hojo Kyosuke remained silent.

He closed the door casually and wanted to sit on the computer chair, but looking at Eriri's haggard ice beauty appearance, he still sat next to Eriri.

The girl leaned into the boy's arms and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"So, what happened to you? Did you eat too much?" asked Hojo Kyosuke.

Eriri immediately yelled in dissatisfaction: "How is that possible! I'm not that fat woman in Kasumigaoka!"

Although she was very weak, her pride was no less.

"I know I know!"

Kashiko, who was lying on the giant Doraemon, raised her hands and ignored Eriri's threatening (pleading) eyes. She immediately started talking:

"Eri secretly got up last night to drink ice cola and had a stomachache! She stayed in the bathroom all day today!"

"And me! As Eriri's best friend, I'm always here with her!"

The little girl puffed out her chest and said proudly.

"..."

Hojo Kyosuke glanced at Eriri speechlessly, then praised his sister:

"Ka-shi-zi is awesome!"

"Hehe, because Grandpa Yagi told me that people are the loneliest when they are about to die, so Kashiko has always been with Eriri."

"..."

Ying Lili's little white teeth made a squeaking sound when she bit the ball. She should have not told this stupid kid. Who knew she had such a good memory.

"So didn't I tell you from the beginning that it's just a stomachache and it won't kill you?!"

The girl collapsed and said, "Oh my god, my stomach was aching so badly, and when I was in the bathroom, there was a stupid kid outside who kept yelling:

"Eriri, are you going to die?" "Eriri, are you dead?" "There's no sound, so she must be dead. Wow, Eriri, you're so pitiful!" "Eriri, you're not dead yet!" "Eriri, why did you have to die in the bathroom? You won't die lonely outside with Prince Ka accompanying you." "..."

The stupid kid had been staying with me in the room since early morning. Although I was touched by Kashiko's concern for me, but...

"It's just a stomachache and it won't kill you!!"

When Kashiko saw Eriri's face getting worse, she was shocked. Is Eriri going to die again? But she looked at herself and her brother, and thought that with her and her brother by her side, Eriri would not be lonely even if she died now, so she felt relieved.

She comforted him, "It's okay, Eriri. Now you have me and Onii-chan to accompany you. You won't be lonely anymore. You can die now."

"..."

Eriri's lips curved up with difficulty. At first it looked like a smile, then it turned into embarrassment, a wry smile, anger, sadness, and then it froze in helplessness. Finally, she looked directly into Hojo Kashiko's eyes and said sincerely:

"Since Kashiko-san and Kyousuke are with me, I have decided not to die. Kashiko can rest assured."

She had given up trying to explain that a can of ice-cold Coke wouldn't kill her.

Kashiko looked at Eriri's embarrassed expression and became even sadder. She said sadly:

"It's okay, Eriri, you can really die now."

"I have really decided not to die, not in this life!" Eriri explained.

"You can die!"

"I won't die!"

"But I've been with you for a day. What will you do if Prince Jia is not with you when you die?"

"..."

Eriri was really moved to tears by this silly kid, and her little hand pinched Kyosuke's thigh hard.

Damn it! Why are your muscles so hard!?

Although it didn't hurt, Hojo Kyosuke immediately said:

"After that, my brother and Eriri will die together. No one will be lonely, so Kashiro doesn't need to worry about us."

After hearing her brother's words, the little girl finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she still reminded him:

"And don't forget Sakura-nee, Mitsuha-nee, Shiha-nee, Yukino-nee, Naoka-nee... Yukino-nee!"

"..."

Feeling the little hand pinching his thigh, Hojo Kyosuke didn't dare to speak at all and could only smile and nod.

So Kashiko got down on the bed carrying a doll that was twice her size.

"Eri, can you help me strap Doraemon to my back?"

The little girl asked politely, because it was Eriri who gave it to her, so she didn't ask her brother for help.

Eriri rummaged through the pile of clothes on the bed and pulled out a ribbon. Hojo Kyosuke took it and tied the giant doll around his sister.

"You can't carry him down the stairs, or he'll roll down, and then Prince Jia will really die!"

Eriri took the opportunity to seek revenge.

"Will not!"

Without even turning his head, Jia Shizi spoke in a crisp and clear voice:

"Prince Jia is small and soft. He will roll over and over and roll in front of his mother. Then he will ask his mother to help him brush off the dust on his body."

"..."

Ying Lili's mouth twitched, and she thought to herself, you stupid kid won't die if you roll down the stairs, why should I die just because I drank a can of ice cola?

"Oh!! Momotaro will catch me down there, so Kashiko won't die so easily~"

The little girl added one more sentence before leaving, and Momotaro, who heard his name downstairs, responded with a whimper.

Hojo Kyosuke stood up and shouted downstairs, summoning Yukino to take care of his sister, then turned back.

Closing the door, he looked at the pale-faced ice beauty lying on the bed.

"Was your stomach aching because you got up in the middle of the night and secretly drank an iced Coke?"

"woo woo woo woo……"

Ying Lili mumbled something incomprehensible to no one. After waiting for a few seconds and seeing someone still standing there staring at her, she immediately became angry and said:

"What do you mean by drinking secretly? I bought it! Besides, if you don't drink iced Coke, do you drink hot Coke? That's not decent. Do you think it's acceptable?"

"You'll get a stomachache if you stay like this."

Hojo Kyosuke sighed and sat down, holding Eriri's hand, which was very cold.

"You are such an idiot."

He said helplessly:

"Don't drink Coke at night anymore. Even if you want to drink, you should sober up for a while before drinking. You can open my door and let me prepare some snacks for you."

The blonde princess's mouth pursed, and she felt like crying, but she still said stubbornly: "A can of Coke can't kill me, even if it's an icy can of Coke at three o'clock in the morning!"

"Yes, yes, how could a mere ice cola kill my princess?"

Hojo Kyosuke touched Eriri's little head. Her golden hair seemed to have become much darker, and he felt so distressed.

"Let's go to the hospital."

"I do not!"

"I'll feel bad."

"..."

The girl twisted her waist, pointed her head back, and said firmly:

"I have to get back in shape so I can fight it out with the ice-cold Coke tonight."

The princess stretched out her hand.

Hojo Kyosuke stood up, bent down, let the princess put her hands on his shoulders, and then hugged her waist directly.

"Shall I carry you?" he asked.

Eriri immediately refused: "No, it's so embarrassing! That woman Kasumigaoka Utaha will laugh to death!"

"Then ask Jia Shizi to borrow her stroller to push you there?"

Eriri was furious: "Asshole! That's even more embarrassing! The neighbors will laugh at you!"

"Hahahaha~~"

Hojo Kyosuke burst out laughing. As expected, even when Eriri was sick, she was still so energetic.

He covered Eriri's back with a blanket and carried her downstairs.

I wanted to contact the hospital to send a car over, but then I saw the door to the living room suddenly opened.

Mitsuha's figure appeared first, followed by Miyamizu Yotsuha, who was peeking in with a shocked look on her face, Natori Sayaka, and Teshigawara.

Miss Miko was smiling, probably preparing to introduce her two good friends to everyone, but then she saw Kyosuke walking down the stairs with a large unknown creature in his arms.

"This? What happened to Ying Lili?" the girl asked puzzledly.

Before Eriri could think of how to explain, Kasumigaoka Utaha on the sofa did not hesitate to add insult to injury:

"This girl woke up in the middle of the night and ran down to drink an ice-cold Coke. As a result, she had a stomachache for the whole day. Prince Jia even thought she was about to die. Hahahahaha—"

"..."

Miyamizu Mitsuha's mouth twitched, what a strong sense of déjà vu...

When she was in elementary school, her mother bought ice cream for her and her sister. She was afraid that Siye would steal the ice cream, so she got up in the middle of the night and ate both cups of ice cream. As a result, she had a stomachache the next day and Siye cried all day.

As the memories came to her mind, she immediately felt sympathy for Eriri and quickly put the bag in her hand on the table.

"The car that brought us here is waiting outside the door. Let's take Eriri to the hospital together."

Yotsuba next to her was moving back and forth between Eriri and her sister.

Like attracts like, the little girl thought.

"..."

The blonde princess had already seen the two strangers, so she buried her little face tightly in Hojo Kyosuke's arms like an ostrich, and quietly pulled the blanket to wrap herself up.

Hojo Kyosuke greeted Hayakawa and the imperial envoy with a smile, then walked out the door holding Eriri and Mitsuha.

"..."

Sayaka looked at the backs of the three people, her mouth wide open. After a long while, she looked at her boyfriend blankly and asked:

"Is that the artistic genius that Mitsuha mentioned just now? The genius girl whose three posters caused a frenzy on the internet?"

"Golden hair, that should be it." The envoy nodded.

"A nationally renowned genius girl drank an ice-cold Coke in the middle of the night and had a stomachache for the whole day?"

Sayaka asked stupidly.

"..."

The Imperial Envoy was also speechless and shocked. After thinking for a while, he explained:

"Maybe all geniuses have quirks, right? Just like Sanye, she's already this big but still has to fight with Yotsuba for food."

"That's right."

Sayaka suddenly realized, and then said in surprise:

"How come your brain suddenly becomes so sharp?" (End of this chapter)
