Aoba frowned as she looked at Kyokawa Ryoko who was leaning closer, and took a step back. "Excuse me, do I not seem to know you well?"
"Huh? Didn't you come here specifically to see me, senior?"
Ryoko Kyokawa was dressed very lightly, and even when she bent over slightly, you could see the snow that was about to burst out.
"Sorry, I don't know you."
The words fell.
Ignoring Ryoko Kyokawa's unpleasant expression, Aoba left directly.
And after he left.
Feeling mocked, Ryoko Kyokawa scoffed, her face, adorned with expensive cosmetics, filled with anger.
"Who do you think you are? Do you really think you're so great?"
"I'd rather like someone like Demon King Shizuka. Looks like I really am a masochist!"
She didn't hide her voice from anyone.
Those around her assumed it was just her being angry and embarrassed after being rejected.
After all, the behavior of Ryoko Kyogawa and her friends was well-known in the class.
"Hey! Yuihama, get me a cup of fruit tea, it's so hot outside!"
After entering the classroom, Ryoko Kyokawa ordered Yui Yuigahama around without any politeness.
But this time...
She didn't get what she wanted.
Yui Yuigahama stood quietly in front of the stall, her eyes still showing a hint of haste and timidity.
But she still spoke her mind.
"Ryoko, help yourself."
"Hey? Yuihama, are you crazy? What's wrong with you carrying this for me?!"
"besides..."
Yui Yuigahama gripped the hem of her dress (Wang Le Zhao) tightly and said resolutely:
"You should apologize to Aoba-senpai for what you just said!"
-
"Hey!"
"Store manager!"
"Making a girl wait a long time is extremely rude!"
Ms. Kasumi, wearing black tights, stood on the stairs of the teaching building.
He crossed his arms and looked down at Aoba passing by.
"Eh?! Kasumigaoka-san?!"
"What? The shop manager seems quite surprised?"
Kasumigaoka stood at the top of the stairs, quickly descended to approach Aoba, poked his chest with her finger, bent down and looked up at him suspiciously:
"Did you do something bad?"
"I'm sorry, if I missed Ms. Kasumi's class activity, then I must have done too many bad things."
"Hmph~ You're so glib!"
"Then...would you like to try some?"
Aoba smiled and leaned closer; the two could almost instantly feel each other's breath.
This. . .
And again... It's a foul!
That awful store manager!!
Chapter 175: Takatsuki Sen, a collaborative work! ? The aura of Busujima Saeko!
After delivering the lunchbox to Yuihama, Aoba prepared to visit the kendo club as Saeko Busujima had invited him.
While you're at it, learn a couple of basic moves and practice them slowly when you get home.
Can you practice until you can get a rough idea of how it looks?
After all, one's culinary skills can continue to improve with practice, so there's no reason why one shouldn't do kendo.
Meeting Kasumigaoka on the way was purely accidental.
However, judging from the looks of it, the girl dressed in a vibrant school uniform seemed to have been waiting for him here for quite some time.
Her outfit was similar to usual, but her makeup was slightly different.
She dressed up carefully before going out, wearing a light touch of red lipstick, and looked like the most beautiful flower bud in the cherry blossom-filled campus.
"Manager, this is a school! You're a hero to all the female students. If they see you like this, it won't be good for you!"
Kasumigaoka frowned, her eyes showing a hint of melancholy.
She looks like a wronged and humiliated person whose boyfriend is always cheating on her.
Aoba hadn't expected Kasumigaoka to switch from offense to defense, and couldn't help but smile helplessly.
"Does the senior want me to be misunderstood?"
"Hmph~ How would I know what the shop manager is thinking?"
Upon hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyebrows curved into a smile, but the smile vanished in an instant.
Last night, when Aoba took me home, I saw the news about Toyama Park on TV, and I was quite worried.
After all, even if the teacher steals her cabbage, she can still snatch it back.
But if the cabbage gets damaged by someone else, she really can't do anything about it.
Fortunately, Aoba arrived on time at 6:30 today to participate in the school anniversary celebration.
Kasumigaoka Utaha poked Aoba's chest and other parts with her finger:
"Can't you just focus on running the shop at night? You still have the energy to mess around elsewhere. Does the shop manager really think he's Superman?"
"The capable should do more, and besides, the situation last night was indeed quite complicated, so I really couldn't refuse."
"Those who are capable should do more..."
Seeing that Aoba didn't show any discomfort on his face, Kasumigaoka secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk alongside him.
"Shouldn't Otome come along too? She could be of some help. You're fighting tooth and nail at night and running around all day. Hasn't she even offered to help you, the commander-in-chief, relax a bit?"
"I'm used to being alone, and besides, Otome also has to handle other things within the organization..."
"Hmph~ Yes, she can help you with anything, but I'm just an ordinary high school student and I can't help you with anything."
"Eh..."
Qingye shook her head and chuckled softly.
The two walked to a campus vending machine. Kasumigaoka stepped forward, selected two bottles of coffee, opened them, and handed them to Aoba.
Walking along the campus path strewn with cherry blossom petals, I began:
"Actually, my novel was already approved by editor Machida last night..."
Aoba tilted her head back and drank her coffee, a delighted smile on her face.
"Really? Congratulations, Ms. Kasumi!"
"Hmph~ Isn't it normal for it to pass the review? I know my own novel very well."
Kasumigaoka tilted her nose, then paused and said:
"However, Editor Machida mentioned something that I should think about..."
"what's up?"
"A very accomplished senior colleague seems to have seen my work before and felt it suited her taste. She wants me to consider creating a piece with her..."
A hesitation, unlike anything he had ever shown before, appeared between Kasumigaoka's brows.
Aoba was also surprised.
"A very impressive senior?"
"Yes, it's a senior named Takatsuki Sen. Her books are very popular. Which one? The Egg of the Black Goat? I've read it too. It's a very literary work."
Takatsuki Izumi? !
Upon hearing this, Qingye felt a slight stirring in her heart.
He was also familiar with the name.
Or perhaps "one-eyed ghoul," Yoshimura Eto, would be a more fitting description of her identity.
She actually came to Kasumigaoka...
Did Rize Kamishiro reveal something over there?
"Although Takatsuki Sen-sen has high hopes for me, my skill level is difficult to match hers, so I don't know whether I should refuse..."
After finishing speaking, Kasumigaoka sighed deeply.
This is an emotion she rarely shows, and now she can only be so relaxed in front of Aoba.
Seeing the girl's troubled expression, Aoba couldn't help but chuckle:
"Would refusing affect your work?"
"No, Machida said that the contract was drafted by the editorial office and has no binding force on me. She even said that she had never seen such a favorable contract for a newcomer."
"Do you want to go yourself?"
Aoba asked the question again.
