The same table is actually my sick reader

Chapter 171. 170. The Aroma of Citrus
Walking out of Senbuya, the two wandered around again.

After shopping for a while, they walked into a handmade shop, which had a variety of materials, not only scarves, towels, but also handmade dolls and so on.

The reason for coming here was that Chirei Shiraishi said that she wanted to weave a scarf.

It is almost October now, and after mid-October, the weather will start to turn cold, so she wants to practice in advance.

"Hello, what kind of thread is suitable for weaving a scarf?"

Shiraishi Qianrei asked the clerk that it was the first time she bought wool for knitting scarves.

"I recommend Hamanaka twine, which is soft and easy to weave."

With a pleasant smile, the clerk led the two of them to the side of the store and introduced the various colors of wool on the shelves.

Shiraishi Qianrei looked at the colorful wool and asked, "Quan, what color do you want?"

"Hmm... black is fine? Although I like white, but white is too easy to get dirty."

Shiraishi Qianlian nodded, and said to the clerk, "Well, then please bring me twenty bundles of black ones."

"Okay, wait a moment, both of you, and put it on right away."

As the clerk said, he took out a brown leather bag from the counter and put 21 bundles of black wool into it.

"Send one more bundle, this is a gift for the two of you who love each other."

These were the clerk's exact words, Kurose Izumi didn't respond much to this, he was used to it.

Along the way, I don’t know how many shops that praise them for their kindness and suitableness!

After paying the bill, the moment you walk out of the handmade store, this shopping trip will come to an end.

Facing the slightly red sunset, the two walked towards Ginza Station and took the tram to Chiyoda.

"It's really satisfying to go shopping today."

"Well, yes."

In the back seat, the two cuddled each other, feeling the tenderness that belonged to each other alone.

The tram was running on the track, shaking slightly from time to time.

When the train arrived, they bought the ingredients for dinner at the supermarket in Jimbocho, and then went home.

At night, I spend most of my time cooking, bathing, and being eaten.

-

October [-]st, the day of the school celebration.

When I came to Mingsheng High School, a huge banner was pulled up at the gate of the school, which said "Mingsheng High School Campus Festival"

Izumi Kurose went to the research department first to put away the butler clothes.

Then, he walked back to the classroom, intending to wait until 08:30 to attend the opening ceremony in the gymnasium.

Only then will the campus festival officially begin.

"Yo, good morning, Izumi."

Hirasawa Shintake sat on a chair, half turned his body and waved to him, saying hello.

"Good morning, Zhenwu."

Kurose Izumi nodded to him, then looked left and right.

He found that his own hometown of the king was gone!
In the back row by the window, instead, there are four combined desks covered with a pink tablecloth.

So, he had no choice but to sit down beside Shinwu Hirasawa, and there happened to be a vacant seat there.

By the way, Shiraishi Qianrei was called by Gu Jianhui.

After all, she is the class monitor, and she has some corresponding things to deal with.

"Haha, I'm going to call for your coffee this afternoon!" Shintake Hirasawa smiled heartily, and stretched out his hand to hook Kurose Izumi's neck.

In his other hand, there is a booklet that reads "Campus Festival Activity Manual".

It costs [-] yen to buy.

"Are you disgusting? It's fine if a woman comes to drink, but don't you think it's strange that you come to drink by a man?"

Kurose Izumi gave him a contemptuous look, then moved his chair and distanced himself from him calmly.

"Men can't drink it? Who stipulated it?!"

"I stipulate that if you come to drink mine, I will poison you."

"Is this because of love and hate? My spring has also become sick and delicate!"

Shintake Hirasawa howled suddenly, his face was extremely exaggerated, as if it was really the same thing.

"...Are you Nanone?"

"Nanone? What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. Show me the manual." Kurose Izumi shook his head and pointed to the activity manual.

He wanted to see some interesting programs, so that he could go and watch them with Shiraishi Qianrei.

"Here, here you are. But by the way, you are really good. There is a plan for the Department of Motion Research."

"Do you want to buy a disc? It's not expensive, one thousand yen."

Kurose Izumi clattered through the activity manual, and saw many interesting programs.

Not to mention the performance of various musical instruments, there are also stage plays, house dances, and even self-made movie screenings!

"It's really amazing, what about the light part, wind part..."

He looked at the musical instrument playing program and thought to himself.

Turn to the next page, there are two stage plays at ten o'clock, namely 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Namahaki Festival'.

He knew about Romeo and Juliet tentatively, but as for Namahage, his impression was a bit ambiguous.

'It seems to be a traditional custom of the Lantern Festival in Akita Prefecture...? '

He was a little uncertain, and couldn't remember where he had seen such a program.

"Well, let's buy ten discs to support it."

Hirasawa Shintake nodded, put his hand in his pocket, and took out a Fukuzawa Yukichi.

"It's useless to give it to me. After the opening ceremony is over, come to the Department of Motion Research to buy it. You know the location." Kurose Izumi said without raising his head, and did not accept the money he handed over.

"Okay, I'll go with you then, and then go shopping with Jia."

"Currently fill the West."

"Damn, you kid still have the face to say that?!"

After that, they chatted endlessly, and they didn't stop until 08:30.

When they came to the gymnasium, banners were also pulled up above the stage, and the president of the student union calmly met the eyes of thousands of students, standing upright.

Kyousuke Kawasaki patrolled the audience back and forth, and slowly said: "Hi everyone, I am the current student council president, Kyousuke Kawasaki..."

He has an awe-inspiring manner, his tone is light but yet magnetic, and he unconsciously exudes the aura of a leader.

'Amazing……'

Kurose Izumi stood silently in a corner, looking in surprise at the person on the stage who was looking ahead and talking eloquently.

He admired Kyousuke Kawasaki for not even having to read the words, and always maintained a calm posture to give the speech.

This requires not only an extraordinary memory, but also a strong mind.

"...The above are some of my reflections."

"Finally, I announce the Shadow Hills Campus Festival--the official start! I wish you all a good time!"

After Kyousuke Kawasaki finished speaking, he bowed and bowed, then turned around and retreated behind the scenes.

There was also thunderous applause from the audience at the right time, and everyone present was overwhelmed by his speech, and their hearts were surging.

"Let's go to the Department of Motion Research."

Amid bursts of prolonged applause, Izumi Kurose whispered to Shintake Hirasawa beside him.

Afterwards, they turned around and left the gymnasium, heading towards the club building.

Walking on the road, Kurose Izumi glanced at him and said lightly: "If you have nothing to do, how about handing out flyers for me later?"

"Why do you think I have nothing to do? I actually have something to do."

"what's up?"

"Of course we go shopping with Jia!"

"……Too."

The two fought and fought, and stepped up the stone steps to the Department of Literature and Art.

As far as the eye can see, someone has already arrived first, and is sitting at the square table sipping black tea contentedly.

Apparently, that person skipped the opening ceremony.

"Hey, good morning, monitor." Shintake Hirasawa greeted with a smile.

Afterwards, he casually picked up a stack of original game discs stacked high on the table.

Insert the game into the PS4 prepared in advance, the first thing that emerges is the members and basic information of the dynamic research department.

"Script: Kurose Izumi"

"Original Painting: Inari Snow"

"Supervisor: Chirei Shiraishi, Izumi Kurose"

"Script: Chirei Shiraishi"

"Music: Chirei Shiraishi"

"Publishing: Co., Ltd."

"Pricing: [-] yen"

……

After a series of introductions, the game finally started, and Shintake Hirasawa started playing happily.

Kurose Izumi sat aside, drinking tea leisurely with Shiraishi Chirei, waiting for others to arrive.

At the same time, they chatted about where to go to play later.

After a while like this, the door of the Department of Dynamics was opened, and Inari Yuki and Tsuda Yoshi walked in.

At that moment, Hirasawa Shintake immediately raised his head, put down the PS4, and stood up to meet him!
"Jia, you're here!"

"Well, let's take a look and come to you by the way."

"hey-hey……"

Kurose Izumi looked at the ambiguous and happy two people, and suddenly understood the feeling of being shown affection.

Then, he said: "Since you are here, Qian Lian and I will go shopping first."

Since there are only three people in the Dynamic Research Department, they work in shifts.

On the first day, Inariyuki was alone.

The second and third are Kurose Izumi and Shiraishi Chirei.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Inariyuki patted his ordinary chest, then sat down at the birch table, picked up another vacant ps4, and played the game they developed.

Although she has cleared the game several times since the completion of the game, she still can't help but want to play when she sees her drawings used in the game.

"I want to go to the venue to watch the performance first, or where should I go?" Izumi Kurose naturally took Chirei Shiraishi's hand and walked out of the art department.

"Listen, where do you want to go first?"

"Go to the venue, you won't miss the performance there."

Finally, they went to the venue and found an empty seat in the back row to sit down.

The venue was dark inside, except for the bright neon lights shining on the stage.

Under the stage, the seats were full of people, all with excitement and anticipation on their faces.

The ones performing on stage now seem to be from the dance department.

There were six of them, a man and a woman in a team, wearing formal dresses.

The passionate music flowed in the venue, pulling the heartstrings of every audience and making them cheer.

And the dancing postures of the men and women on the stage also fit the music, unrestrained and wild, swaying and twisting without time.

"Is this a Latin dance?"

Kurose Izumi watched with interest and recognized the dance.

After a song, the people in the dance department finally made a 360-degree rotation as a curtain call.

They turned and turned, I don't know how many times they turned, before they stopped and bowed to salute.

And there were bursts of loud applause and cheers from the audience.

After one show after another, the time came to ten o'clock. According to the "Campus Festival Activity Manual", there are two stage plays at this time.

"Next is the stage play of Romeo and Juliet, which feels quite interesting." Kurose Izumi whispered to his side, his face full of anticipation.

As soon as he finished speaking, the neon lights on the stage that had been turned off in advance suddenly lit up, revealing its true face!
On the stage, at some point, there was a cardboard castle half the size of the stage, and a few trees.

"Pfft... isn't this tree too funny?" Kurose Izumi couldn't help laughing when he looked at the stage for the first time.

Those trees were made by people, they were dressed in costumes, and they held two branches in their hands.

If it's just like this, it's still normal. What's not normal is that there is a tree showing its face!

Several other plants turned their backs, only one was facing the audience.

"It's really a mistake." Shiraishi Qianlian also covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled, feeling that the lonely tree was a bit funny.

The others felt the same way and laughed out loud.

But all laughs, the stage play still has to go on.

A man wearing a British aristocratic uniform with a sword on his waist stepped out from one side.

She is Romeo.

"Oh! Romeo, why are you Romeo?"

"Deny your father and abandon your name! Maybe you don't want to do this, then as long as you are my lover, I don't want to be named Capulet anymore."

As it develops, the person playing Juliet stands on the castle ledge, calling out to Romeo.

This is one of the climaxes of the plot, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, immersed in the tense atmosphere rendered by the stage play.

"Juliet's lines sublimated the story."

Kurose Izumi said with a sigh, he still remembered the reading comprehension he did when he read this book for the first time.

In fact, he didn't understand how important things like names are at first?It should be repeated several times.

If it is placed in this era, it is definitely not that important.

But in the story of Romeo and Juliet, the era is still a feudal society, and the names of nobles represent identity and status.

Juliet would be useless if she abandoned the Capulet name.

Therefore, her courage and determination to love can't help attacking readers' hearts through the paper.

"It's a miserable love."

Baishi Qianlian made a speech softly, but her expression and eyes were flat, and she didn't see how immersed she was.

As for love, she has also experienced separation and reunion. Now watching this stage play, she must not feel much.

On the stage, the plot is still developing, and the ending will soon be ushered in.

There are roses all around the stage, and a tomb stands in it.

In front of the grave, Romeo put his arms around Juliet, and after speaking his lines, he committed suicide by taking poison.

At this time, the stage lights went out, and when they came back on, it was Juliet who was holding Romeo.

She looked at Romeo with closed eyes, and complained why he didn't save a share of the poison for herself.

Then, she pulled out Romeo's sword and committed suicide.

This is where the story ends.

Finally, the performers all came to the stage and bowed.

"Great! It's so good between girls!"

"Ah~ the aroma of citrus!"

The thunderous applause was mixed with a few extremely excited lines.

In this show, both the male and female protagonists are girls, maybe because of the scenes of kissing or intimate contact.

For example, Romeo kisses Juliet in the final act of dying for love.

At that moment, the audience screamed and cheered.
