I became the emperor in the comic book series.

[You don't know anything!]

[This is Mai Sakurajima's fan space. We don't welcome haters. You fake fan, get out!]

Damn it, I've become a hater?

The series of replies from the other party, along with the grand event of others supporting them, and the fierce fighting power of this group of fans caught Higashino Akira off guard.

He doesn't play Go much and lacks experience.

There's no going back, there's no going back at all.

I accidentally said something a little too harsh, and some sore loser reported me, resulting in me being banned from speaking.

The fist hardened!

I took a screenshot and sent it to a friend of Akasaka Ryunosuke, the genius programmer from Xiaonanliang, saying, "Help me unblock it."

"Received, three minutes."

A little over a minute later, the ban was lifted.

Akira Higashino reopened the comment section, found the most aggressive commenter who claimed to know more about Mai Sakurajima than him, and prepared to retaliate.

Beside him, Saki Kawasaki finished trimming the nails on one of the guy's hands, put the hand down, and gently patted his shoulder.

Seeing that he didn't react, and with her other hand still holding her phone and struggling with the content on the screen, the girl puffed out her cheeks and her expression became slightly serious.

Little Shashi's Mom's Class is now open! When children are addicted to their phones and can't control themselves, it's mostly because they're used to it. At this time, you must not spoil them too much, as excessive pampering will ruin them.

and so…

The girl reached out and touched his face, pinching the soft flesh gently and pulling it to the side.

Instant results, a modern-day miracle doctor!

Higashino Akira's attention was immediately drawn to her, and he looked at her with some confusion.

Seeing this, Kawasaki Saki held out her hand in front of him, "Hand."

"Oh."

Higashino Akira cooperated by switching hands to hold the phone and handing over the other hand, saying, "Thank you."

"They're all grown up now, so well-behaved yet so troublesome," the young girl sighed.

Saki Kawasaki continues what she left unfinished.

Akira Higashino returned to his own comment on Kuroko's post and clicked to reply, "@Mai Sakurajima, Mai, what do you think?"

About ten minutes later, Mai Sakurajima, who plays the female lead Mitsuha Miyamizu in the "Your Name" drama crew, had just finished taking her makeup photos and received her phone from the assistant provided by Yunmeng Entertainment. She saw a question sent by someone she had set as a special follower. After reading the whole story with a puzzled look, she was so angry that she laughed.

Are they children?

Why are you arguing with your fans?

This guy is really something...

Mai Sakurajima's lips curled slightly upward as she suppressed a laugh, took a screenshot of the question, added text, and reposted it as a social media message:

[Regarding signing with Yunmeng Arts, the main reason is for future considerations. I am optimistic about Yunmeng Arts' development potential. At the same time, I am going to university soon, and my studies are my priority. I wanted to change to a new environment with more flexible working hours. There are no bad reasons.]

[Of course, the boss is indeed very handsome.]

He's practically my boyfriend, so I should pamper him a bit.

On the other end of the internet, the first thing Higashino Akira did upon seeing the new social media message was to tag that arrogant troll: "Say something!"

Dipped in soybeans, so refreshing!

Overjoyed, Akira Higashino put away his phone, ignoring the wailing from the defeated girl behind him. He sat up, cupped Saki Kawasaki's face, who was watching TV, and gave her a quick kiss.

Caught off guard by the sudden attack, the girl lightly touched the spot on her face where she had been kissed. She paused for a moment, then belatedly realized what had happened and her face gradually flushed red. "Huh?"

What's wrong with him now?

That night, I slept in an embrace with Saki Kawasaki, and we didn't say a word all night.

.........

The next morning.

Akira Higashino was woken up by a phone call from Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was in a hurry to pick him up. He got up, washed up, made a quick breakfast, ate a few bites, and then made a microwave-safe meal for Saki Kawasaki. After that, he went out, got into Shizuka Hiratsuka's car, and drove off into the distance.

At a campsite in Shizuoka Prefecture, I met Yukinoshita Haruno.

"Yah-ha-ha..."

As soon as they met after getting off the bus, Yukinoshita Haruno greeted Higashino Akira and Hiratsuka Shizuka warmly. Then, she looked at Higashino Akira with a smile and put her hands together. "Haruno brought a barbecue grill and charcoal, but I realized it was a bit heavy when I got off the bus. Could you please help me get it? And please tell Yukino-chan that it's time to get off the bus."

Higashino Akira rolled his eyes at the cunning girl speechlessly, then silently walked towards the car she pointed to. He opened the car door, found the black and white cow cat, reached out and petted its head, consuming a thousand ki. He then appeared, blushing and crossing his arms to cover his body, revealing his most important features.

"That thing is in the trunk of the car."

Yukino Yukinoshita's voice was clean and clear, trembling slightly.

Akira's gaze swept over her body, finally settling on the girl's slightly regretful chest. He silently shook his head and closed the car door for her.

If we disregard her troublesome personality, Yukino Yukinoshita is indeed a genuine beauty. She has a delicate and cute appearance, fair and tender skin, a slender waist, and beautiful hip and leg proportions. It's just a pity that her small breasts make it difficult for her to win people's hearts.

Inside the car, Yukino Yukinoshita: I feel offended!

Higashino Akira waited outside the car until she put on the clothes he had prepared in advance, opened the car door and got out, then went around to the back of the car, opened the trunk and took out various camping equipment.

Easily carry a large pile of heavy items, consisting of many metal parts and cooking utensils, back to the campsite.

Yukinoshita and Shizuka are already working together to set up the first tent.

For this camping trip, there were only two tents in total. Both parties brought their own, and Yukinoshita Haruno was responsible for bringing cooking utensils and fuel, while Hiratsuka Shizuka brought food and drinks.

I originally thought it was two couples who came.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned and scrutinized him repeatedly. Not seeing a second man on the scene, she looked at Haruno with some confusion.

Where is your boyfriend?

You agreed to bring your respective partners along, but you didn't bring your boyfriend and instead brought your sister. What's going on here?

Hearing this, Akira Higashino sighed silently and set up another tent. Yukino Yukinoshita stepped forward to help and handed him some things.

Faced with Hiratsuka Shizuka's questioning, Yukinoshita Haruno put on a pitiful expression and pretended to be sad, "My boyfriend said I'm bad and doesn't want to come with me."

"Ugh, how awful!" Hiratsuka Shizuka felt a bit indignant on Haruno's behalf. "But then again, Haruno, you really do have a bit too much of a penchant for teasing people."

She lectured him in a tone of someone with experience, "After all, boys are proud and have a strong sense of pride, especially in public. You should be more reserved in your daily life. It's important for both of you to respect and understand each other."

She didn't have a choice before, but now, as Hiratsuka Shizuka, she has a boyfriend and is qualified to share her experiences, which are full of a sense of fulfillment.

Cool!

It felt as refreshing as gulping down a large glass of ice-cold beer on a hot summer night.

Jing Ke'ai was secretly pleased with herself.

Chapter 127 Hiratsuka Shizuka senses something is wrong

"By the way, who is he?"

Afraid of upsetting Haruno, Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't lecture her much, but instead asked in a low voice out of curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita shook her head with a smile, without replying.

For some reason, Hiratsuka Shizuka always felt that this guy's smile looked strange, a smile that made her feel uneasy.

While these two mentors and friends were talking, Akira Higashino and Yukino Yukinoshita had quickly set up the tent that the Yukinoshita sisters had brought.

"There's a fishing spot nearby, I'm thinking of trying it out, do you two want to come along?"

"Yeah."

Yukino immediately agreed and followed.

Hiratsuka Shizuka was left alone, staring blankly at the tent that was only half-erected.

Not a sister...

Fortunately, not everyone is so shameless and has such a penchant for dark and wicked humor.

Compared to her older sister, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't quite achieve the same level of harmony as that couple, who were so eccentric they were practically inseparable. She didn't plan to go with them; partly because someone needed to stay at the camp, and partly…

Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Hiratsuka-sensei with pity, sighed, and then silently went over to help her with a guilty conscience.

I always feel sorry for Hiratsuka-sensei.

evening.

After a day of fishing, Higashino Akira returned to the camp with a long face, having been discriminated against by the uncivilized fish from out of town. Wasn't it supposed to be that fishermen are kind gods to the fish, scattering food to feed them, and then the fish choose their own kind to offer sacrifices in return for the fishermen's kindness?

He spent nearly 200,000 yen on bait to prepare the fishpond, but not a single fry took the bait.

Japan is so wicked. Not only are the Japanese people wicked, but even the fish don't know how to be grateful.

anger!

Beside Higashino Akira, Yukinoshita Haruno handed the bucket she was carrying to her lovely Ichiban Tatsuki. Inside were two palm-sized fish. Although it wasn't much, it was a huge win compared to a certain old classmate.

More importantly, she didn't even bother with a proper stall; she just sat near her old classmate, casually flicking the hook, chatting and playing on her phone, and ended up getting the goods delivered.

The fish isn't important; what's important is that we can use it to tease Higashino-kun.

Ms. Haruno said: It was really fun to be cheeky like this.

whee…

At the camp, around the same time, Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukino Yukinoshita had already lit a charcoal fire and started preparing the ingredients.

Seeing Higashino Akira sitting down silently and grilling with a sour expression, Hiratsuka Shizuka curiously turned to Hinano and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita Haruno's eyes lit up, and she eagerly moved closer to Hiratsuka Shizuka and whispered something in her ear.

After hearing the whole story, Hiratsuka Shizuka slapped her thigh and burst into laughter, mocking him as she laughed.

"What? It's just that they didn't serve any fish. It's no big deal. The convenience store next door sells fish. Higashino, you usually seem so mature, but you're still just a kid."

Akira Higashino turned his head and looked at her intently. After a moment of silence, he nodded. "Compared to Shizuka, I can indeed be considered a child."

Suddenly, Hiratsuka Shizuka could no longer laugh.

The joyful expression on his face froze instantly. His lips twitched, but he quickly regained his composure and silently opened a can of chilled beer that he had prepared in advance in the car refrigerator.

Beside Hiratsuka Shizuka, Yukinoshita Haruno covered her mouth with her hand, pressing her index finger and thumb against the muscles on both sides of her cheeks, and kept making muffled, suppressed laughs.

Some people may look like they've grown up, but inside they're still children.

Yukino Yukinoshita silently shook her head and sighed at the three of them.

Sigh, three kids.

At night, the four sat around the campfire, drinking beer, eating kebabs, and chatting about interesting things they had seen and heard, as well as the current situation of their former classmates.

Aside from Yukino Yukinoshita, she drinks orange juice.

Once again, she clinked glasses with her boyfriend, whom she had watched grow up, and handed him a grilled sausage. Hiratsuka Shizuka cherished the moment when she could drink heartily.

Ever since she and Dongye slept together last time, she has been consciously trying to quit smoking and control her alcohol intake.

After all, she'll be almost thirty in two years, and she has to think about the future generations. She also longs for a sweet romance, a happy marriage, and eventually a lovely child.

Hiratsuka Shizuka was self-aware enough to know that marriage was probably impossible for her given her current situation. While her love life wasn't exactly sweet, it was at least quite comfortable. As for family, she wasn't short of money and didn't need Higashino to take much responsibility for her. So, all that was left was having a child.

I can't be an elderly mother, it's too dangerous.

Therefore, Ms. Hiratsuka wants to become a mother before she turns thirty!

Seeing the two getting along well and the atmosphere being harmonious, Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly sighed with a touch of melancholy, drawing Hiratsuka Shizuka's attention.

"What's up?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at her with some concern.

Upon hearing this, Ms. Haruno rested her hands on her knees, looking melancholy. "I was just thinking that Shizuka and Higashino-kun have a really good relationship. And you've known each other for so many years, almost eight years, and you've finally gotten together. That's wonderful."

Upon hearing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka scratched her head and laughed heartily, though there was still a hint of embarrassment in her expression.
