It's a romantic comedy for everyone, so why am I the only one single?

Because of her interest in Iura Hide, she already knew that the light music club had gained a new first-year student named Goto Doku the day before yesterday.

She hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now she was quite curious.

"If you have time, I'll get you an application form later so you can fill it out first."

"Then it's up to you!"

After successfully securing the money for renting a recording studio and hiring a professional band to produce the accompaniment, Iura Hide finally yawned contentedly and fell asleep before the school bell rang.

Sakura Kono turned her head to secretly look at him, a gentle smile involuntarily appearing in her eyes.

Meanwhile, in the classroom of Class 1-A at Toyosaki High School, as soon as Kitagawa Kaimu entered the classroom, she was quickly pulled away by Ryuna and Ozora, who had been waiting for her.

"Hey, Haimeng, what's going on? Why do you suddenly have a boyfriend?"

"Exactly! Who is he? Is he handsome? Do we know him?"

The two of them kept asking each other questions, their curiosity practically written all over their faces.

"I guess you could say we know each other."

Kitagawa Kaimu forced a dry laugh and said, her eyes unconsciously glancing at Sugaya Noha, who remained silent behind the two of them.

Although she had anticipated being questioned like this before she came, she still felt a little embarrassed when she actually brought it up in front of Sugaya Noi.

Oozora noticed her gaze and turned to look at Sugaya Noha as well, a thoughtful look immediately appearing in his eyes.

However, Ryūne, who was standing to the side, did not have this kind of observational ability. Upon hearing this, she became even more excited and curious.

"Who is it? Is it Hikaru, the handsome hairdresser at the barbershop where you used to work?"

"No."

"That is"

Ryun guessed three or four names in a row, all of which were handsome men they used to know, but Kitagawa Kaimu rejected them all.

This further confirmed Osora's suspicions.

So when Ryunosuke, that clueless simpleton, asked again, "Who is it?", she, who had been just watching the drama unfold, fell silent, just like Kitagawa Kaimu at that moment.

"Huh? What's going on with you guys?"

Of the four people, three remained silent, their expressions quite strange. Even if Liuyin were a complete idiot, she would have noticed something was amiss.

Many thoughts flashed through Oozora's mind, and then she prepared to have her say Iura Hide's name.

This will reduce Kitagawa Kaimu's awkwardness to some extent.

However, before she could even speak, Sugaya Noi, who had been keeping her head down and silent, suddenly looked up and said with a grin, "You silly Ryune, it's Iura-senpai~"

"Ah!?"

"That Iura-senpai who sings so well?"

"But doesn't he like you?"

Ryūon's eyes widened in surprise.

So surprised was she that she didn't even notice that Oozora's expression hadn't changed, clearly indicating that he had already guessed it.

"Iura-senpai doesn't like me."

"He likes Hai Meng."

"She asked me for my contact information because she just wanted to find out about Hai Meng's hobbies and what kind of boys she likes."

"It was that senior Yamada who made a mistake last time."

Ryūne accepted this reasonable explanation almost immediately, and a look of sudden realization appeared on her face.

Oozora, who was standing to the side, also had a look of "I knew it" in his eyes. The last bit of doubt in his heart was resolved, and he felt a little sorry for Sugaya Noi.

Unlike the naive Ryunosuke, she could sense that Sugaya Noiwa actually had feelings for Iura Hide.

However, she also knew that Kitagawa Kaimu also liked Iura Shu, and that she had liked him even earlier than Sugaya Nowa.

The two of them were completely going in the same direction.

At the same time, she also knew that being able to explain things so clearly and concisely was the best way to handle the situation for Sugaya Noha.

So, aside from letting out a silent sigh, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

However, seeing Sugaya Noi's smiling face, which seemed to have let go, she and Kitagawa Kaimu both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of whether Sugaya Noa has truly let go completely, at least by doing this, she clearly cherishes their friendship, doesn't she?

"correct!"

Suddenly, Ryune, who was standing to the side, thought of something and said excitedly, "So, the song 'I Want to Tell You' was actually written by Iura-senpai for Haimeng, right?"

Sugaya Noi's smile froze, and she subconsciously gripped her phone tighter, a noticeable fluctuation appearing in her previously calm eyes.

However, by the time Oozora and Kitagawa Kaimu turned to look at them, the strange fluctuation had already vanished without a trace, so neither of them noticed it.

"Yeah, that's right."

Kitagawa Kaimu withdrew her gaze and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Oozora felt relieved and asked with a forced smile, "So when will the song be released? We're waiting to download it and support you!"

Upon hearing this, Kitagawa Kaimu was both shy and proud, sticking out her tongue.

"That senior artist isn't actually planning to release this song, so please don't give it to anyone else."

Before she could finish speaking, Liuyin had already started shouting.

"Wow! So only a few of us have heard this song?"

“The seniors’ club members have also heard of it, but we are the first to hear about it,” Kitagawa Kaimu explained.

"Don't worry, we'll only keep it to ourselves, we won't share it with anyone else."

"How about we ask Senior Iura to write another song for Haimeng? This time we promise we'll only listen to it, not keep it."

"That's a good idea!"

""

With Ryune, that goofy guy, around, and with Oozora's deliberate cooperation, the atmosphere among the four of them seemed to have truly returned to normal.

However, none of them noticed that Sugaya Noi, who had a sweet smile on her face and would occasionally chime in with a few words, and who showed no signs of anything amiss, had slightly white knuckles on her left hand as she held her phone.

Chapter 67 Temporary Band

"Simi Ma Sai!"

"Excuse me, are you Ms. Kagurazaka Ayame?"

"I am a student in Ms. Nikaido Yuri's class. My name is Iura Hide."

"Yes, it's about submitting the manuscript. Nikaido-sensei has already told you about it, right?"

"Five o'clock in the afternoon? Okay, I've written it down."

""

During the break between the second and third periods in the morning, Iura Hide, who had been woken up, scratched his head. First, under the guidance of Kono Sakura, he filled out the application form for club activity funding. Then, after glancing at the few minutes left before class, he thought for a moment and simply took out his phone, found Kagurazaka Ayame's number, and called her.

As expected, Yuri Nikaido, who appears to be a cool and aloof queen but is actually warm-hearted, had already made arrangements with Ayame Kagurazaka beforehand.

So after receiving his call and learning that he had already prepared a 50,000-word draft and a plot outline, Kagurazaka Ayame directly asked him to meet at the publishing house at 5 p.m. today.

"Phew! That's a pretty nice voice."

After hanging up the phone, Iura Hide couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He hadn't felt anything while making the call, but after finishing, he suddenly felt a little nervous.

"Writing an outline is very simple; you can finish it in any class."

"You can print the paper copy after school."

"By the way, I still don't know how to get around!"

Back in his seat, Iura Hide took out his timetable and saw that the next class was Nikaido Yuri's Japanese literature class.

Yuri Nikaido helped him so much; if he were to sleep in her class, that would be really inhuman.

So

"Let's finish writing the outline during Chinese class!"

So after class, he first used his phone to check the commuting route to Kadokawa Bunko, and then picked up his pen and notebook and began to write an outline.

Yuri Nikaido on the podium immediately noticed his little action.

In the past, she would have definitely given Iura Hide a good beating and taught her what proper classroom discipline was.

However, seeing how seriously Iura Hide was writing, she could guess that Iura Hide was writing a novel.

Nikaido glanced again at Mashiro, who was sleeping soundly on the table beside him. A vein throbbed on Nikaido's forehead, but he ultimately turned his head away, choosing to avoid seeing her altogether.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

Compared to Mashiro, who dares to openly sleep during her class, Iura Shu is much more pleasing to the eye, isn't he?

Studies have shown that it takes fourteen days to form a new habit from scratch.

However, it turns out that if the habit itself is comfortable, it can become a habit in just a few days.

During lunch break, in the restaurant/cafeteria.

Iura Hide, along with Mashiro, Ishikawa Toru, Hori Kyoko, and Yoshikawa Yuki, sat together naturally, as if they had always looked the same way.

Even after the fourth period today, because Iura Hide was drowsy and moving too slowly, Hori Kyoko and Yoshikawa Yuki took the initiative to come to their classroom door to wait for them, carrying their lunch boxes.

"Huh? Is the Light Music Club having another event later?"

"Ah."

"Then can we go together?"

"Of course, and if you go this time, you'll also need to help me out a little."
