Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

"Ok?"

"If, I mean if..."

"What if Tazaki happens to fall for a girl other than you and Mika-chan?"

Hina Aoki's eyes flickered, and for a moment she didn't understand who she was referring to.

Tachibana Rin quickly adjusted her words: "Um... for example, Coco-chan, you see, isn't she in another project where Tazaki is writing a solo song for her?"

"And, she's so big."

Rin Tachibana drew an exaggerated circle on her chest.

"Even if you and Mika-chan are combined, and I'm included at most, we still wouldn't be a match for her."

Hina Aoki glanced down at Rin Tachibana.

"Whether you're here or not, it's all the same, isn't it?"

Rin Tachibana immediately retorted, somewhat unconvinced, "How can 0-3 and 2-3 be the same thing?"

"It's still a loss." Hina Aoki pouted slightly.

She gently placed her hand on her chest, and after a long while, let out a slightly desolate sigh.

"Stop touching it. If you keep touching it, it won't grow any bigger. This is how it will be for the rest of its life."

Although it was the truth, the words were so harsh that Hina Aoki had no choice but to stop thinking about them.

"Anyway, I believe that Tazaki-kun is not a superficial person who judges people by their looks or figure."

Rin Tachibana was speechless for a moment. In Hina Aoki's eyes, Toru Tazaki would probably be the kind of perfect Platonic man who doesn't care about your looks, your figure, or your body.

If it weren't for the fact that Hina Aoki rarely reads romance manga featuring female characters, Rin Tachibana would have thought she was poisoned by shoujo manga.

There's no such man in the world.

"I think you're hopeless," Tachibana Rin retorted.

"I'd like to, but don't you dare save me, he'll save me."

……

……

After soaking in the hot spring, this time I finally didn't run into Toru Tazaki in front of the door.

The two girls went back to their room together. Although they shared a room, there was a screen between their beds.

Perhaps because of her injury, Tachibana Rin was not as boisterous as usual. She lay on the bed watching beauty videos and soon fell asleep, her soft breathing filling the air.

Hina Aoki turned off the lights in the room, lay flat on the bedding, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She knew in her heart that there was probably another girl tonight, just like her, who was having trouble falling asleep.

After Tachibana Rin next door fell into a deep sleep, Aoki Hina, who had been unable to fall asleep for a long time, lifted the covers and peeked out next door.

After confirming that Tachibana Rin was fast asleep, he went barefoot and quietly opened the bedroom door.

I walked through the hotel corridor and turned a corner.

After hesitating for a long time, Aoki Hina gently knocked on Tazaki Toru's door.

"Tazaki-kun, are you asleep?"

250. They were all soaked.

midnight.

The hotel room was brightly lit.

Tazaki Toru was hunched over his desk, gently turning the mechanical pencil in his hand, occasionally writing words in his notebook.

dong dong dong-

The sudden knocking on the door pulled Tazaki Toru's thoughts from the papers back to reality.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar, gentle voice came from outside.

"Tazaki-kun, are you asleep?"

Upon opening the door, Aoki Hina, dressed in a hotel yukata, stood gracefully at the entrance.

The girl slightly raised her neck, and the dim corridor light shone on her face, adding a touch of allure to her originally cute and sweet features.

She turned slightly to the side, her gaze passing over Toru Tazaki, and noticed the paper and pen on the table. She exclaimed in surprise, "Tazaki-kun, it's so late, are you still writing songs?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I wrote some lyrics. Where's Miss Aoki? It's so late, is there something you need?"

"I can't sleep either. At Mika-chan's house, I inexplicably acted reserved and didn't dare to eat much. Now I'm a little hungry, so I'm going out to buy some food, hehe~~"

After saying that, the girl scratched her head, looking embarrassed.

Tazaki Toru couldn't help but smile and turned to look out the window.

Unlike big cities, Nanfangzong at night is sparsely lit and pitch black.

Tazaki Toru said, "Then I'll go with you."

The girl's beautiful eyes narrowed into two slits with delight as she nodded vigorously.

"Okay!"

The two left the hotel together. Outside, the wind was cold and the air was damp with the scent of the sea.

Not long after they left the house, Aoki Hina, who was standing next to him, suddenly sneezed.

Seeing this, Tazaki Toru took off his coat and draped it over the girl's shoulders.

Hina Aoki was taken aback and looked up at Toru Tazaki.

His expression remained calm and composed, as if such a move was perfectly reasonable.

"It's cold outside, be careful not to catch a cold."

"...Yes, thank you."

She smiled faintly and quietly clenched the sides of her coat, unconsciously leaning closer to Toru Tazaki as she walked.

I wandered around the area for a long time but couldn't find a single convenience store that was open.

For city dwellers accustomed to living in big cities, this is truly unbelievable.

After walking an exceptionally long way, we finally found a convenience store with its lights on in some corner.

After eating the steaming hot meat bun, a warm blush appeared on Aoki Hina's fair face.

Standing in front of the convenience store, the girl suddenly stretched out her finger and pointed to the coastline not far away.

"Tazaki-kun, I've heard that the pier in Minamiboso is especially beautiful at night. I'd like to go to the beach to see it, is that alright?"

Tazaki Toru looked up at the dark clouds under the night sky, then at the excited smile on Aoki Hina's face, but ultimately couldn't dampen her spirits.

"it is good."

Strolling along the coast, the girl beside me left a small and lovely footprint with every step she took.

Tazaki Toru thought that if he smeared Aoki Hina's soles with ink, made a rubbing on paper, and signed his name, a large number of people might pay for her footprints.

Aoki Hina naturally didn't understand what Tazaki Toru was thinking at that moment. Recalling what happened on Christmas Eve, she still felt lonely.

The moment spent strolling alone with just the two of them, even amidst the biting cold wind, warmed her heart.

Suddenly, Hina Aoki slowed her pace, and Toru Tazaki followed suit, walking slowly as well.

"Hey, Tazaki-kun, can I ask you something?"

Tazaki Toru looked over in confusion.

"I wonder if Tazaki-kun harbors any resentment towards me and Rin-chan."

Tazaki Toru was quite surprised and asked, "Why is that?"

"Ever since I met Tazaki-kun, I've always been asking you for favors, and I've brought Rin-chan into this mess with you."

"This time, it also ruined your trip with Mika-chan."

"It's not about destruction. I came here with Meijia because I had nowhere else to go. There's nothing wrong with having more people and making it more lively."

"You really think so?"

Absolutely true.

Aoki Hina's smile grew even brighter.

She walked onto the pier, where the warm yellow streetlights enveloped her, making her burst into cheerful, sweet laughter.

"Tazaki-kun, can you take a picture for me?"

Tazaki Toru naturally had no reason to refuse.

She made a heart shape with her hands on both sides of her face, which was really cute and playful. Several photos of her were taken.

Gradually, tiny water droplets fell from the night sky, blurring the phone's camera lens.

The drizzling, icy rain fell on them unexpectedly, like a chance encounter.

"Ah, it's raining!"

She hurriedly gripped Tazaki Toru's sleeve and ran towards the hotel.

When they returned to the hotel, both Tazaki Toru and Aoki Hina were soaked by the rain.

I borrowed a clean towel from the hotel reception.

"Let me wipe it for you."

Hina Aoki tiptoed and placed a towel over Toru Tazaki's head, wiping the raindrops from his face.

The girl suddenly moved very close, her thin hotel yukata clinging tightly to her body, the subtle rise and fall of her chest causing Tazaki Toru to slightly avert her gaze.

She moved closer and closer, naturally pressing against Tazaki Toru, and could feel the soft touch.

Tazaki Toru subconsciously took a step back, slightly at a loss, feeling only that his throat was dry and hoarse.

The girl in front of him was suddenly different from usual. She stared straight at the man in front of her with a look that could be described as affectionate.
