"Of course, Illya's casual clothes."

"Isn't that still elementary school student attire?"

"Ten, nine, eight..."

As the countdown began, Ilya felt a surge of pressure.

How to do?How to do?

If I were the same age as Miyu and the others, I wouldn't have to feel this pressure.

"Go ahead, I'll go, okay?"

"Please practice beforehand, so that your self-introduction doesn't sound like a monotonous recitation."

"...Don't worry, although I'm still shy, it won't get to that point."

Ilya silently reassured herself that this was just a performance, an act, and that the audience would think she was a great actress and wouldn't criticize her for pretending to be young.

If I get scolded, it's no big deal. I don't have many friends anyway, so I can just stay home.

After calming down, Ilya realized that Chloe was flirting with a pretty girl she didn't know again, and she couldn't help but shout:

"Chloe! What are you doing?"

"Don't worry about it, it's just a normal conversation."

"As a girl, can't you be a little more reserved? Why do you always act like a creepy uncle, flirting with other girls as if no one else is around? It's so embarrassing."

"In a parallel world, I am you. In other words, what I do is the same as what you do."

"I don't admit it! Hmph... You said it yourself, that's just something that happens in a parallel world, what does it have to do with us?"

That damn Chloe, she's always so infuriating!

Seeing this, Irisviel glided over at the opportune moment and struck up a conversation with a smile:

"Thank you, President Hayase. Thanks to you for bringing Chloe back, Ilya has become much more cheerful."

"As long as you don't find it troublesome," Masamune said with a smile and shook his head.

"How could that be? A lively atmosphere isn't a bad thing."

Chapter 436 Please keep this a secret for a while longer.

On the morning of April 5th, Musashino's long vacation came to an end, and he returned to work. The first thing Masamune did was to hold a meeting.

Since there were still two days before the start of the school term, Hachiman Hikigaya was also invited to the conference hall.

After Masamune distributed the scripts, Hachiman Hikigaya immediately looked at everyone with a tense expression.

As the lead writer of "Shura Field", although I have already received recognition from the scriptwriting department's Mai-chan, I still feel a bit expectant and nervous about being watched by so many people.

After an unspeakable silence lasting more than ten minutes, Kinoshita Seiichi, who was the first to finish reading the script, said excitedly:

"President, please let me take charge of the magical girl series!"

Upon hearing this, Eiji Nishimura, who was standing nearby, immediately retorted loudly:

"Nonsense, I was the producer of 'The Night Before Fate' which aired last quarter, so I'm definitely going to be in charge of this one."

"Although the characters are the same, the stories are completely different. Moreover, I can reorganize the production team from the season before last."

"What do you mean? The production staff remains the same, but I, the director, am being replaced?" Eiji Nishimura glared at him angrily.

“That’s right! Such an outstanding work should definitely be directed by the best director in Musashino.”

"Oh...? You want to compete with me in terms of seniority and ability?"

“That’s right. Not only in terms of seniority, but also in terms of the highest ratings of the works I’ve produced to date. Moreover, I have extensive experience in producing feature-length animations…”

Seeing this, Masamune sighed helplessly.

Honestly, every quarterly planning meeting involves arguing for ages. Can't we just give in a little?

From Masamune's perspective, it makes no difference who is in charge of which work.

After all, having trained for three consecutive years, each director is a seasoned veteran with exceptionally rich production experience.

"President, is this how it is every planning meeting?" Hachiman Hikigaya asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, they won't stop arguing for at least ten minutes each time. Sigh..."

Masamune straightened up, clapped his hands twice, and, as everyone's attention turned to him, said solemnly:

"I have something to do at noon, I don't have time to waste here. Make a decision within a minute, otherwise I will nominate someone else."

"Hmm... In that case, I'll play the new game."

Realizing he might not be able to win the magical girl award, Kinoshita Seiichi immediately changed his mind.

“I want magical girls.” Eiji Nishimura said without hesitation. “I’ve been in charge of this series, and I’ve had a very good relationship with Kiritsugu and the others.”

Seeing that Director Takeuchi had no intention of vying for the position, Masashi Yamada, the least senior director, took the initiative to speak:

"Then I'll choose Angel Beats."

Upon discovering that the remaining fourth director, Yasuyuki Takeuchi, had silently picked up the remaining manuscript, Hachiman Hikigaya frowned slightly.

Sure enough, it still doesn’t work?

Although the subject matter was limited, the fact that his own novel, "Shura Field," was left out and no one was interested in it is enough to show that it was not good enough and could not compare to the other three works.

When it comes to the animation evaluation later, its results will definitely not be as good as the other three works.

At that moment, a strange sense of anxiety rose in Hachiman Hikigaya's heart.

"Alright, now that the four directors have been chosen, let's start selecting the producer. Miyamori, which project would you like to be in charge of?"

Upon hearing Masamune's voice, Miyamori Aoi quickly began to ponder.

I wasn't very familiar with Ilya and the others, but I used to go to Eagle Leap often and had a good relationship with Ryoka and the others.

However, as an animator, one should also be willing to try new things and get to know more new people; it's never a bad thing.

"I choose the battleground."

Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes lit up. Good eye!

Although it's unclear why she chose the "Shura Field" (a type of intense, chaotic situation) as her first choice, it undoubtedly shows that her work has some merit.

“Okay, next…” Masamune turned to look at the others.

In the next few minutes, the main members of the four production teams quickly made a decision.

"That concludes today's morning meeting. Animation production will proceed as usual."

"understand!"

"Tomoyo, come with me."

? ?

Tomoyo paused for a moment, then quickly followed.

"what happened?"

"Now that you've been assigned to the Angel Beats production team, you'll definitely be meeting with the people involved in the story quite often. Get ready, come with me to a place at noon."

"No problem, what do I need to prepare?"

"Let's finish today's work ahead of schedule, or hand it over to someone else. We might not be back this afternoon."

"Okay, what's our destination?"

"At the hospital, Hatsune Otonashi is having surgery at noon today. I promised Yuzuru Otonashi that I would go and accompany her."

"I heard you mention this a few days ago. I thought the surgery was already done. Why is it today?"

"It was originally scheduled for the afternoon of the 3rd, but the organ donor had a final burst of energy before death and insisted on staying for another day."

Are you still alive?

That's true, since organs have a limited lifespan outside the body.

After her initial surprise, Tomoyo felt it was quite normal.

"That's it, I understand."

Back in his office, after quickly finishing his work for the day, Masamune went straight to the second floor of Musashino.

Upon discovering that Umaru was chatting with Chitose Yu, Masamune immediately stepped forward.

"The surgery time has been set for 11 a.m. today. Let's go together later."

“Okay.” Umaru thought for a moment and then said, “If it’s 11 o’clock, Setsuna’s opening ceremony will probably not be over yet, so I won’t call her.”

"Where are you going?" Karasuma Chitose couldn't help but ask. "By the way, is Setsuna starting school today? So early."

"Because of the different regions, each school has a different start date. I start school on the 7th, what about Chitose?"

"I'm number 9. Where are you going? Can you take me with you?"

"No," Masamune refused without hesitation.

"why?"

"Because you're too noisy, you'll disturb the patients."

"I can be quiet too. Is someone sick? Is it someone I know?"

No, you don't know him.

"I don't believe you. Name me."

"Oto no Hatsune Miku".

Karasuma Chitose was speechless; he had indeed never heard of that name before.

"Fine, forget it then. I'm not interested in hospitals anyway."

Just then, Masamune's cell phone rang.

He took out his phone and glanced at it, only to find that the caller ID showed his father. Masamune immediately walked to the side and pressed the answer button.

"What's wrong, Dad?"
