Iruma-san wants to win the Akutagawa Prize

There were no more letters from Toyokawa Shoko.

Iruma Hibiki flipped forward slightly on his phone and saw the clothing size of Toyokawa Shoko that he had written down last night.

Thinking of her skirt, which had to be dried after washing, otherwise there would be no replacement, Iruma Hibiki made up his mind. After thinking for a while, he opened a chat with someone.

[Aine, are there any women's clothing trends that are trending lately? Something suitable for high school students?]

【Eh? What's going on? 】

【Why are you asking this all of a sudden! 】

Chihaya Aine also replied immediately.

For her, this was actually almost the limit of her patience.

[Nothing special, I just want to prepare a gift for my lover.]

My lover...

Chihaya Aine sent a sighing emoticon.

【Wait me a moment.】

A short while later, she reliably sent several store pages.

【what? 】

When seeing the picture sent by Chihaya Aine, Iruma Hibiki looked at a loss.

【Aine, are you serious? 】

[Eh? Aren’t these really pretty?]

Suddenly, Iruma Hibiki thought of Chihaya Aine's peculiar aesthetic taste...

Speaking of which, indeed.

Being knowledgeable about makeup doesn’t mean you’re knowledgeable about clothes.

Iruma Hibiki felt that he seemed to be taking things for granted.

[Just to ask, does Aine usually choose her own clothes? ]

[No, my family bought it for me.]

The case of Ling Meng'Ni:⑵（三）O四九.qi彡④ has been solved.

[At first, I tried buying my own clothes, but my family wouldn't let me wear them.]

[It's weird, isn't it?! Ring!]

There we go again, that awful name.

Hibiki Iruma sighed deeply once again.

I got the wrong guy.

but……

A smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the smart and powerful master.

He felt a little more relaxed after chatting with Chihaya Aine, and the convenience store was just around the corner.

On the shelf, Iruma Hibiki chose the cheapest coffee and bought a small can of refreshing functional drink, then opened the chat history from Nagasaki Suyo, which was a bit long.

Most of them were asking about his situation, and there were also many people who were concerned about him. Of course, in the end -

【Did something happen between Xiang and Xiangzi? 】

[I don't mean to pry into the secrets between Xiang and Xiangzi, but Xiang, I'm sure you understand my feelings.]

The coffee that Hibiki Iruma brought to his lips had an astonishingly bitter taste on his tongue.

[Hiragi has already said that I am the only one who can understand Hiiragi, so why...]

"Su Shi."

On the other side, behind Nagasaki Suyo, Wakaba Mu called out to Nagasaki Suyo, who was typing with a horrified expression.

And Nagasaki Suyo also put away the expression on her face in an instant.

The voice was sweet and she turned around with a gentle smile.

"What's wrong, Mu?"

"Everyone said they had to pack up their things first."

"I see. I'll be right over."

The person who suggested packing up first was Shiina Tatsuki.

Because for Tatsuki Shiina, she may have long given up the idea of continuing this trip.

In Takamatsu Deng and her room, Shiina Riki lay on the bed with her face buried in the pillow.

Takamatsu Deng secretly looked at Shiina Riki.

Then he carefully drew what Shiina Riki looked like at the moment in his notebook, and then drew a question mark next to it.

On this painting, there are many names of Hibiki Iruma and Shoko Toyokawa. If you look further ahead, you can see some expectations for future performances.

67 Nagasaki Suyo is coming

When Iruma Hibiki came back, he saw everyone waiting for him in the hotel lobby.

"I am back."

Not only for some reason, he felt like a prisoner at this moment, feeling a little more alert.

"Welcome back Hibiki."

Obviously, Nagasaki Suyo chose to conceal the message she sent, and no one knew what she said. At this moment, she just smiled at Iruma Hibiki, but her face hid a deeper emotion.

Hibiki Iruma subconsciously avoided Nagasaki Suyo's gaze.

"Xiang, how is Xiangzi?"

Shiina Riki stood up and asked.

Although she and Wakaba Mutsu came back a little late last night, they also got up a little late this morning. This was what she and Wakaba Mutsu had discussed last night. Unless Iruma Hibiki came back and got up early, Nagasaki Suyo and Takamatsu Deng would be allowed to sleep longer after they woke up.

So at this moment, except for Iruma Hibiki, everyone was in good spirits.

Even Wakaba Mutsu, who was the worst at it, didn't doze off much.

"It's okay, Xiangzi just ran out of credit on his phone and then ran into some trouble, but it's been resolved."

Iruma Hibiki responded.

The performances of Tatsuki Shiina and Mutsu Wakaba are obviously completely different.

A smile appeared on Wakaba Mu's face, and then she breathed a sigh of relief in secret as if she was completely relaxed. She looked at Iruma Xiang, her face filled with trust and dependence.

As for Shiina Riki.

She was actually a little at a loss as to what to do.

【A little trouble.】

really?

Shiina Riki questioned.

Was Toyokawa Shoko's condition last night and the scene in that room really a problem?

Isn’t Shoko Toyokawa a young lady?

Why live in a place like that and have such a bad life?

Is it a scam?

Is the eldest lady in disguise to attract the doctor?

Are you worried about others seeing through your dark side?

Shiina Riki couldn't understand what was going on.

But there was one thing she understood.

【This is what Hibiki Iruma doesn't want to explain to them.】

When he realized this, Shiina Riki felt a little sad.

They were clearly partners working together last night, but this morning, she was unable to learn the truth and everything, just like she and Wakaba Mutsu were locked outside the door last night.

Yes, she was the one who closed the door.

However, the reason why she closed the shop was definitely not...

Want to create opportunities for Iruma Hibiki and Toyokawa Shoko.

I just don't want to see those two hugging each other again.

Shiina Riki felt a little irritated.

But she just couldn't get angry.

Choosing to support Hibiki Iruma was the decision made from the very beginning, not to mention that it was now Hibiki Iruma who reconciled all the conflicts and protected the band.

It seems that the problem has been solved.

This is a good thing.

Hibiki Iruma did a perfect job.

and--

Shiina Riki noticed that at this moment, Iruma Hibiki had no intention of announcing the [suspension of activities] that she overheard last night.

Therefore, some fantasies were born in Ryujinjiu and Mai Shiina Riki.

Perhaps, after last night, the issue of Toyokawa Shoko has been completely resolved by Iruma Hibiki, and the band's problems have also been solved.

If I can focus on the band and keep moving forward...

For her, such an ending might be acceptable.

As for Gao Songdeng, he was probably also feeling happy at this moment.

She didn't know everything, she only knew that Iruma Hibiki solved Toyokawa Shoko's problem, the band's troubles disappeared, and she didn't have to worry about the band ending.

and--

It had been a long time since she had been to the planetarium with Toyokawa Shoko and Iruma Hibiki.

Takamatsu Deng recently plucked up the courage to ask these two people out together.

As for Hibiki Iruma, he didn't know what to say. He definitely felt guilty in his heart, just like when he rushed back to Tokyo that day.

"Travel, continue."

Suddenly, Hibiki Iruma said this.

"Don't you need to rest?"

"I slept a little last night."

Hibiki Iruma was telling lies.

"Well, that's fine."

However, Shiina Riki did not expose the truth and continued the conversation.

Normally, Nagasaki Suyo, who would always stand out gently at this time with her smile and sweet voice, sat where she was, with her head slightly lowered, making it difficult to see her expression at the moment.

because--

Iruma Hibiki didn't reply to her message and ignored her.

From before to now.

Iruma Hibiki didn't respond directly to her question.

For some questions, no reply is also a reply.

That is to say-

【Xiang and Xiangzi did it.】
