Chapter 407: When Visiting Someone Else’s Home, It’s Best to Bring a Gift!
Maybe a Fake Gintama Chapter 407 When Visiting Someone Else's Home, It's Best to Bring a Gift!
This happened during a period of heavy snowfall...
That winter, because of a strong influenza spread from the alien planet, almost everyone on the streets of Edo was wrapped up tightly. Almost everyone wore masks, scarves, and hats.
The incident also started the day when Shinpachi took a day off to take care of Otae, who was infected with influenza at home...
...
Koudoukan hall, Shinpachi gently pushed open Otae's bedroom door and closed the door after walking in.
Otae, who was lying on the tatami covered with a quilt and a mask, coughed twice before turning to look at Shinpachi who had just approached.
"It's snowing. I'm sure it won't snow much. Are you okay, Sister? If it's cold, you must tell me." Shinpachi came to Otae's side and put down the porridge in his hand. At the same time, he knelt down and sat down, "The porridge is ready. Drink it all and get well soon."
"Cough cough, Arigatou, Shin-chan." Otae's weak face showed a touch of gratitude, "Cough cough... I'm fine now. You can go to work."
"Ah, it's okay," Shinpachi replied, "On the phone just now, the two of them said, [You might have been infected, so don't come over, pathogen.]"
"Gin-san is going to fall. Calling Shin-chan pathogen is too much..." Otae complained, but then she suddenly thought of something. At the same time, she closed her eyes and said softly, "But I think that Gin-san and the others were just concerned."
"How is that possible?" Shinpachi replied, "We don't have entrustment today anyway, so I might as well ask for leave. I've also helped you apply for leave at the bar. I'll take good care of you today."
As he spoke, Shinpachi lifted the lid of the clay pot, picked up the spoon and small bowl, and gently scooped up the porridge.
"But, if I really infect you, Shin-chan, it will be troublesome," Otae said worriedly.
"It's alright, it's alright." Shinpachi smiled. "Next time, it'll be sister who takes care of me."
"Shin-chan, you seem to be very happy..." Otae looked at the smiling Shinpachi and said with some doubt.
"Ah, no, that... this..." Shinpachi suddenly panicked a little, and then quickly stopped what he was doing. He apologized to Otae and explained, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. That... I'm sorry, saying this when my sister was sick, but... that..."
After saying that, Shinpachi touched the back of his head in embarrassment and continued, "Because the two of us haven't been together like this recently, so... I'm sorry."
"Shin-chan, you are really," Otae scolded with a smile and continued, "Then, let me act like a baby to Shin-chan today. Can you forgive me for my willfulness?"
"Ah, yes!" Shinpachi hurriedly replied, "I can do anything you want me to! I can do anything!"
As he spoke, Shinpachi suddenly realized something. He hurriedly picked up the wooden basin and stood up, "Then I'll change the water first!"
With that, Shinpachi opened the door of the room and walked out. However, just as Shinpachi closed the door happily with the wooden basin in his arms and went outside to change the water for his sister, he suddenly found a strange object under the eaves - a quilt that was slowly moving in his direction...
"Shinpachi-kun..." Kawaki came out of the quilt and begged in an extremely weak voice, "Save me..."
"Kawaki-san! Why are you here?!" Looking at Kawaki, who was wearing a mask and had an extremely pale face, Shinpachi asked in surprise, "Why are you in my house? By the way, are you infected with influenza too?".
"Now is not the time to talk about this. What's important is that those guys managed to escape from their clutches. The rest will be left to you. Please..."
"Kawaki-san, I have already been sent away those guys for you, so can you leave quickly? Why are you lying on the tatami looking like you want to be taken care of?"
"Shinpachi-kun... please," Kawaki struggled to turn his face to look at Shinpachi, "It's so cold outside, and my body is so hot. I can't tell if it's cold or hot. I don't know if I need a hot towel or a cold towel, and my head hurts... It's so painful... Cough, cough, cough..."
"Shin-chan, it's okay. We've been taken care of by Kawaki-san many times." Otae turned to look at Shinpachi and said with a smile, "This time, consider it as a repayment of gratitude."
"Since sister has already said so, then forget it," Shinpachi finally responded, "I can still barely take care of two people."
"Thank... thank you so much, Shinpachi-kun..." Kawaki showed a face of gratitude, then reached out and picked up a shopping bag from the floor, "The visiting gift I bought when I came, the Baagen-Dazs I brought for Miss Otae, and the adult magazine I bought for Shinpachi, please accept it."
"Who wants it!" Shinpachi shouted with veins popping out.
"Ah, are you worried that Baagen-Dazs melted?" Kawaki explained weakly, "It won't. When I came here, I hung it outside the bedding. It didn't melt at all."
"I'm not talking about that! I'm talking about adult magazines! Why did you give me an adult magazine as a visiting gift?! What is your brain thinking?!"
"Can't I?"
"It's not a matter of whether can you or not!" Shinpachi shouted with a face full of shame and anger, "And you took that thing out in front of my sister. What are you thinking about?"
"Shin-chan..." Otae turned her face away and whispered with a red face, "Sister understands. After all, Shin-chan is already at that age. It doesn't matter if you accept it. Sister will pretend that she didn't see anything."
"Sister!" Shinpachi was extremely ashamed and resentful.
...
"But I didn't expect that the influenza this time would even make a person like Kawaki-san, who looked like he would never get sick, fall for it." Shinpachi knelt in the middle of his sister and Kawaki. He sighed slightly and said, "It seems that this time it really cannot be underestimated."
"Hey, I always feel that you want to say something rude. You definitely want to say that idiots won't catch a cold, right? Right?" Kawaki squinted his eyes and spat expressionlessly. However, he started coughing violently again after he finished speaking.
"It's better to have a good rest, Kawaki-san," Shinpachi kindly reminded him, "Drinking a bowl of hot porridge and having a good rest at this time will relieve the pain."
"Sorry to trouble you, Shinpachi-kun..."
Right at this moment, Shinpachi suddenly heard the doorbell of his house ringing.
"It can't be that it's still Hyakka, right?" Shinpachi stood up and muttered to himself in confusion.
"Probably not," Kawaki replied, "They should have already broken through the door by now."
"That's true," Shinpachi smiled awkwardly, then gently opened the room door and walked out, "In short, I'll go take a look first. You two should rest well."
...
A few minutes later, Kagura and Gintoki, who were wearing masks and had terrible expressions on their faces, pushed open the room door and walked in. They took out blankets from the cupboard and laid them down on the floor.
Meanwhile, Shinpachi stood expressionlessly at the door of the room, not saying a word from beginning to end.
From left to right of the room were Gintoki, Kawaki, Kagura, and Otae. The four of them coughed one after another...
