The answer is, you don’t leave out the “u”. In Japanese, when certain short vowels come between two unvoiced consonants (consonants that you don’t activate your voice box to pronounce, e.g., s, t, k, etc), or at the end of a word after an unvoiced consonant, the vowels become unvoiced. It’s not just the “u” in desu.

Why do Japanese mix up L and R?

So, ‘rice’ gets pronounced ‘lice’, ‘balloon’ as ‘baroon’, etc.
