Yukinoshita's Correction Method

Azuma Yunshan approached Yukinoshita Yukino and blew into her ear.

Yukinoshita Yukino tilted her head slightly and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Then, as if to hide her shyness, she touched the baby's head.

Such a beautiful scene happened right before her eyes.

"You must have seen it wrong. It's like one of those trick shots you see in TV dramas." Hikigaya Komachi shifted her gaze, adjusting her observation angle. "Actually, we didn't touch. It just looked very close because of the angle."

"It doesn't matter." Yuigahama Yui was very open-minded, "As long as I enjoy watching it, that's all."

Hikigaya Komachi: "...That's right."

As they were talking, Yukinoshita Yukino and Azuma Yunshan had already brought Azuma Yunxi into the family restaurant.

After being led to her seat by the waiter, Yukinoshita Yukino's gaze remained in one direction.

That is......

Azuma Yunshan finally understood why Yukinoshita Yukino came to this restaurant: "Want to play the claw machine?"

Family restaurants often have adults bringing their children to dine, so claw machines are placed in the store to attract customers and increase revenue.

The claw machine in this restaurant is a Disney co-branded model. The machine that Yukino Yukinoshita was staring at was filled with Johnny the Panda dolls.

It was a panda biting a straw, with fierce eyes, obvious claws, and a square scarf around its neck, giving it a bit of a western cowboy vibe.

"No." Even as she said this, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't take her eyes off the claw machine. "I'm not interested in that kind of game."

"I want Xixi to see it." Dong Yunshan picked up Xixi, "But I can't free my hands while holding her."

“…There’s nothing we can do.” Yukinoshita Yukino followed Azuma Yunshan and stood up and walked over to put in the coins.

The machine made a strange wooshing sound.

Yukinoshita Yukino stared at the machine, motionless.

"...The joystick controls the mechanical claw." Azuma Yunshan recalled the scene where Yukinoshita Yukino stood in front of the self-service drink with a coin in her hand. "Then press the button, and the claw will descend."

"Oh... thank you." Yukinoshita Yukino's face flushed slightly. She reached out and grabbed the joystick, gently turning it. After getting familiar with it, she began to adjust the position and pressed the button towards the doll.

The mechanical claws hummed and slowly descended.

"...I got pinched." Yukinoshita Yukino raised her chin slightly and secretly clenched her fists.

The mechanical claw wobbled down, grasped the doll firmly, and slowly rose.

Volume 3: Spring Break at the End of the Semester: Chapter 89: Outdated Techniques

It was obvious that Yukinoshita Yukino had never played a claw machine before, so her excitement was a little premature.

According to Edo Spruce's experience, grabbing a doll does not mean you can get it.

Sure enough, when the mechanical claw rose to its highest point, it paused abruptly.

The stuffed animal then fell off and regained its freedom.

"Why?" Yukinoshita Yukino watched the mechanical claw return to its original position expressionlessly, "Didn't it already clamp it?"

"The claw strength can be adjusted, divided into strong grip and weak grip." Dong Yunshan chuckled while holding baby Xi. "If the friction generated by the grip is not enough to support the weight of the doll, the doll will easily fall."

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly: "But I clearly caught him."

"Grabbing dolls involves two steps: grabbing the doll and transporting it. Some businesses will adjust the gripping force in stages. For example, they'll set it to strong for grabbing the doll and weak for transporting it," Dong Yunshan explained. "The specific effect is that it can be held firmly, but it will fall if you move it."

"A consumer trap?" Yukinoshita Yukino narrowed her eyes. "Merchants won't let customers easily catch them, but they won't make it impossible for them to catch them either—probabilistic programming?"

Dong Yunshan nodded: "After a fixed number of weak grips, there will be a strong grip."

"This amount is roughly the price of the items in the machine." Yukinoshita Yukino put the banknotes into the coin exchange machine to exchange for coins, and placed a stack of coins next to the coin slot. "Then just try a few more times and you'll be fine."

The claw machine started beeping again.

Wow wow wow ~

Yukinoshita Yukino's expression remained calm: "Isn't that enough..."

Wow wow wow ~

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were cold: "...Damn it, it's happening again."

Wow wow wow ~

Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips: "Hmm!"

"Wow!" Dong Yunxi waved her hands, "Woo woo!"

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes flickered slightly, and she stopped tossing the coin: "Let's stop here today and eat first."

So you plan to come back later until you catch it?

"You hold Xixi." Dong Yunshan handed Dong Yunxi to Yukinoshita Yukino, "Let me try."

Yukinoshita Yukino took Dong Yunxi and held her in her arms: "Are you good at this?"

"I haven't played in a long time." Dong Yunshan put in a coin and adjusted the joystick twice. "I don't know if I'm rusty now."

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes dimmed slightly. It seemed that Azuma Yunshan was just trying it out.

Wow wow wow ~

The machine made a sound, and this time it was mixed with other noises.

That was... the cry of the mechanical claw.

Dong Yunshan quickly moved the joystick left and right, and the mechanical claw swung accordingly.

At the moment when the amplitude reached a certain level, Dong Yunshan pressed the button.

The shaking mechanical claw avoided the baffle of the cave entrance, grabbed the doll beside it, and slowly lifted it up.

When it reached the top, the mechanical claw suddenly paused and the force of the claw relaxed.

The doll broke free from the mechanical claws above the baffle and fell into the hole.

thump.

Azuma Yunshan took out the doll and handed it to Yukinoshita Yukino: "Done."

Most people who play claw machines know this little trick of flicking the hook. The key is to press the button at the right time.

Seizing this right opportunity is not difficult for people who often play games or have quick reactions.

Even people who don't play games can achieve the achievement of crooked pulling and tilting through repeated practice.

So soon many claw machines had anti-swing hook designs.

"Is this really possible?" Yukinoshita Yukino stared blankly at the doll in Azuma Yunshan's hand, "I...you caught this."

"I used your money to catch it for you." Dong Yunshan put the doll aside and took Dong Yunxi away from Yukinoshita Yukino's arms. "Isn't that right, Xixi?"

"Wow!" Dong Yunxi didn't understand, but still responded happily.

Yukinoshita Yukino picked up the doll and held it in her arms: "...I won't give it back to you."

"If you want, I'll pay for it myself." Dong Yunshan looked at the claw machines next to him, "Anyone else want one?"

"I'm not interested in other dolls. I only like Panda Johnny." Yukinoshita Yukino shook the panda's hands. "I've always had the habit of collecting these dolls, but these prizes are different from those on the market. They can only be obtained through claw machines, which has always been a headache for me. Although I have thought about buying them at online auctions, the condition of online items cannot be guaranteed to be good, and the pictures provided by the sellers may have been processed, so I have never been able to make up my mind..."

After saying a lot of things in a row, Yukinoshita Yukino was slightly out of breath. She pinched the panda Johnny's paw, and her face was slightly red.

"Is that so?" Dong Yunshan nodded, "Then catch two more later."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "Hmm?"

"One for personal use, one for collection, and one for preaching."

"Is there such a thing... Huh?" Yukinoshita Yukino looked away, "What is that...?"

"Oh no!" Yuigahama Yui's expression was stunned, "We've been discovered."

"We met by chance." Hikigaya Komachi corrected softly, then walked into the family restaurant with Yuigahama Yui, "It really is you, holding the baby. Yui and I looked at it for a long time and didn't dare to recognize it."

So natural!

Yuigahama Yui realized the gap between herself and Hikigaya Komachi.

"What a coincidence." Dong Yunshan introduced, "This is my sister Dong Yunxi."

Dong Yunxi stared at the two strangers intently.

"So cute~" Yuigahama Yui was afraid of scaring the baby, so she didn't approach rashly and kept a distance to greet him, "Xixi, hello~"

Dong Yunxi blinked and looked at Yukinoshita Yukino beside her.

Yukinoshita Yukino patted Xibaobao's head: "They are your brother's friends."

Dong Yunxi responded cooperatively: "Wow~"

Click!

The shutter sounded, and several people looked at Hikigaya Komachi at the same time.

"Look at this," Hikigaya Komachi held up her phone in front of the two of them, showing them the photo she had just taken. "Let alone us, even if it was you, you probably wouldn't recognize it at first glance."

In the photo, Dong Yunshan is holding baby Xi and looking at Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino held a panda doll in one hand and gently stroked Xixi in Dong Yunshan's arms with the other hand, with tenderness between her eyebrows.

Although it is just a photo, with the background of a claw machine filled with dolls, it has a unique artistic conception.

It’s as if this is not a photo, but a story.

Anyway, they don't look like two students in school.

Yuigahama Yui gave Hikigaya Komachi a look: Email me later.

Hikigaya Komachi gave her a look in return: Got it.

Yukinoshita Yukino and Azuma Yunshan looked at each other, then looked away at the same time.

Volume 3: Spring Break: Chapter 90: Public Places

"You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Dong Yunshan raised his chin and gestured to the seat next to the crib. "Come together. It's my treat."

"No, no." Yuigahama Yui waved her hands hurriedly, "We..."

"It's not the last dinner together," Dong Yunshan interrupted her, "You don't have to be so polite."

"Great!" Hikigaya Komachi cheered, "I want the most expensive one!"

"No problem." Dong Yunshan laughed, "Double portion!"

"Then let's come out together next time." Yuigahama Yui also smiled.

Everyone sat down and the waiter prepared children's chairs.

Although Dong Yunxi couldn't eat, she sat in the child's chair and looked around curiously, which gave her a sense of participation.

"So that's how it is." After listening to Yukinoshita Yukino and Azuma Yunshan's account of what happened, Yuigahama Yui couldn't help but admire, "As expected of little Yukino, she's so good at even taking care of a baby."

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her hand: "I just happened to have read some related books."

Dong Yunshan took out baby wipes from the stroller and handed them over: "Don't listen to her modesty, she later looked up a lot of information."

Yukinoshita Yukino took the wet wipes and wiped Dong Yunxi's saliva: "Since I have given you guidance and suggestions, I must be responsible for them. Naturally, I have to look up more information."

Azuma Yunshan wiped the teether clean with a wet wipe and handed it to Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino carefully checked the teether to make sure there was no damage that might hurt the baby, then she handed it to Dong Yunxi and let her play with it.

June is the teething period, and the baby's saliva secretion increases. In addition, the baby has not yet fully mastered swallowing, so he will naturally drool.

Letting your baby chew on a teether can put pressure on her gums and relieve her teething discomfort.

Dong Yunxi grabbed the teether and stuffed it into her mouth, enjoying chewing it.

Yuigahama Yui and Hikigaya Komachi were dazzled. They only felt that Azuma Yunshan and Yukinoshita Yukino were very busy, but they didn't understand what they were busy with.

But it was obvious that both Yukinoshita Yukino and Azuma Yunshan knew what the other was going to do, and they completed the smooth and natural cooperation while chatting.

Even though they hadn't seen each other for just a few days, Yuigahama Yui suddenly felt as if they were not of the same age.

"Ah..." Hikigaya Komachi slammed her palm, "I think I suddenly understand Mr. Hiratsuka's feelings."
