Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

But Mr. Totsuka in front of me seemed completely unconcerned about such matters.

Isn't he Ms. Minase's lover?

"I've been learning the zither since I was a child, for eighteen years," Tazaki Toru answered truthfully.

"I see."

For some reason, he sounded somewhat disappointed.

"I almost mistook you for me because Mr. Tazaki played so perfectly."

The same kind of people?

Tazaki Toru couldn't understand.

Drip—drip—

Drip—drip—

Two private cars stopped at the company entrance at the same time, and their horns sounded simultaneously.

Ms. Minase rolled down the car window, her face beaming with a smile: "Kazuto-san, get in the car quickly."

On the other side, Miss Aimei did the same, but her voice was even louder.

"Hey you, get in the car!"

It's really baffling.

"Then I'll take my leave."

After leaving those words, Mr. Totsuka walked toward the car driven by Ms. Minase.

Seeing that Tazaki Toru was still standing there unmoved, Miss Aimi stretched her hand out of the window and knocked on the car door twice with her palm.

"Get on the bus!"

Tazaki Toru couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh and was forced to get into the car driven by Miss Aimi.

I've reached a general conclusion in my mind.

……

……

Sitting in the passenger seat, through the car window, Toru Tazaki quietly watched the neon lights slowly recede.

After the vehicle passed an intersection, he suddenly said:

"Please drop me off here. The station is nearby; I can walk there."

Miss Aimee, who had been silent all along, slowed down her driving speed and slowly pulled over to the side of the road.

Tazaki Toru did not get out of the car immediately. He knew that the senior beside him must have more to say.

"Um, sorry."

Miss Aimee changed her previous tough tone and unconsciously spoke with a touch of gentle tact.

"Ah."

Tazaki Toru surprisingly didn't launch into his long-winded explanations; he wouldn't apply his approach to every girl.

It was precisely because Tazaki Toru had seen something that he felt that no matter what he said at this moment, it would be wrong.

"You must be very troubled by this sudden outburst."

"It's alright, I'm used to it."

"Habit?"

Tazaki Toru nodded: "I seem to have a constitution that easily attracts trouble."

Miss Aimee scoffed upon hearing this: "I think she's the kind of woman who easily attracts trouble."

Tazaki Toru raised an eyebrow: "You can tell that too?"

"That person too, you all have similarly annoying faces."

Tazaki Toru couldn't help but wonder whether this was a denigration or a compliment.

Miss Aimee let out a slow sigh and said unhurriedly, "Never mind, never mind. Where do you live? I'll take you home."

"Really giving it away?" Tazaki Toru asked in surprise.

"Tsk! You really gave me a ride. I'm a senior, after all. Otherwise, if I rushed you to get on the bus and then kicked you off, how would I be able to face people?"

"This car is usually only for female voice actors, you've hit the jackpot."

"Tell me, where are you staying?"

"Moon Island".

"........."

So, Miss Aimee didn't say another word to him the rest of the way.

As the car entered Tsukishima, before Toru Tazaki could even say the specific street and house number, Ms. Aimi drove into the street where Toru Tazaki lived.

This left Tazaki Toru bewildered and uncertain.

Was he opened?

That's a bit scary, sis.

After the car stopped in front of the Kubo family home, Ms. Aimi asked casually, "Is this your house?"

"Rented."

She fell silent, gazing at the plaque bearing the name "Kubo" embedded in the outer wall, lost in thought.

Tazaki thanked him, closed the car door, and the vehicle sped away without stopping, its red taillights disappearing into the distance.

"Tazaki-kun?"

Just as Tazaki Toru was about to step into the house, he heard a girl's voice behind him.

Tazaki Toru turned around and saw two petite and slender girls, each carrying a convenience store bag of various sizes, seemingly having gone out shopping together.

"Miss Aoki, Miss Tachibana, welcome back."

"Wow! You even have a private car to pick you up today! You've become a big shot, Tazaki!"

Ms. Tachibana's voice was as sharp as ever, with a hint of mockery in her tone.

Clearly, Tachibana Rin was already resentful of Tazaki Toru's daily early mornings and late nights.

As for where this resentment came from, she couldn't say for sure.

Hina Aoki stared at the car that had driven away earlier, falling into a long silence.

She felt that the car looked familiar.

I don't think so...

380. Tonight is Rin's moment of suppressed emotions.

Back home, Tazaki Toru went straight to the living room.

Behind her, a female voice actress casually placed her convenience store shopping bag on the table and was about to walk towards Tazaki Toru when she was stopped by the girl next to her.

Hina Aoki winked at her and shook her head slightly.

Rin Tachibana ignored it and patted Hina Aoki's hand confidently, as if to say: Don't worry, sister.

As a staunch supporter of Hua Luogeng's water-boiling principle, Tazaki Toru would always go to the kitchen to boil water as soon as he got home, and then listen to the "gurgling" sound of the kettle while doing other things.

Rin Tachibana walked over, crossed her arms, and leaned against the door.

"Hey, Tazaki."

"What brings you here, Miss Tachibana?"

Rin Tachibana scanned Toru Tazaki from head to toe with her eyes, wondering whose car he had ridden back in, and said:

"I just wanted to say that you've been a bit too lazy lately, you're never seen all day or night."

"Seeing you is harder than anything else."

Tazaki Toru pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "From what Miss Tachibana is saying, you want to see me?"

"Go away, stop nitpicking my words. Do you really think you're someone important?"

I'm very sorry.

After saying that, Tazaki Toru showed a slightly puzzled expression and stared at Tachibana Rin for a long time.

The sound of water bubbling and gurgling filled my ears.

"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?"

Rin Tachibana felt slightly intimidated by his gaze, fearing that Toru Tazaki might notice something.

"Miss Tachibana, is there something important you want to tell me? Or have you encountered a bottleneck in your practice?"
