Iruma-san wants to win the Akutagawa Prize

Including the family and Jimmy Henry who was used to make up the numbers, there were actually the same number of people, but their situations were completely different——

"So, Goto-san, do you know how to get home from here? Would you like me to give you a ride?"

The time to say goodbye finally arrived after both parties’ address books and a fat man gave away a +1 for free.

Iruma Hibiki was actually a little worried.

"It's okay, I, I know how to get back..."

Goto Ichiri's reluctance has actually taken shape.

If emotions had power, she would definitely be able to drive an EVA right now.

And until the very end, when she said goodbye to Hibiki Iruma, she was the first to turn around. Because she was a little flustered and at a loss under Hibiki Iruma's gaze, she turned around first.

But the moment he turned around, the feeling of reluctance overflowed again. However, at this time, no matter how much he regretted leaving, he could no longer stop.

After all, today, she is like the protagonist of the story.

After encountering a huge setback in class, he was saved by his imaginary hero and got what he had always hoped for.

only--

in case.

Her hero, just her hero.

Goto Ichiri gently clenched his mobile phone, and after standing still for a while, he began to walk towards home with heavy steps.

The tram stop where she was going to take the tram was actually in the completely opposite direction.

The shortest way also requires passing through the bustling streets of Shimokitazawa in the late night and then going to another entrance.

After taking a few steps, about ten meters, Goto Ichiri quietly turned his head.

In fact, Hibiki Iruma didn't leave after saying goodbye.

After all, Goto Ichiri's appearance was worrying no matter how he looked at it. He stopped there for a while and looked at Goto Ichiri's back.

At this moment, their eyes met.

Then, Goto Ichiri was like a frightened little animal. After being startled, he quickly ran out of Iruma Hibiki's sight.

"If you get home, please let me know you're safe. I was a little worried about you."

More than ten minutes later, Goto Ichiri saw the first message of comfort from a friend on the tram. He smiled so foolishly that he missed his last bus and had to walk one more stop to get home.

And the end of this emotion probably came after seeing Nagasaki Motoyo's reply under Iruma Rengen's tweet.

Goto Ichiri thought he might be sick.

Do not know why.

As always, yet different from the norm.

She could no longer regard her time with Hibiki Iruma as the same ordinary and happy daily routine that had lasted for the past three years and seemed to never end.

After all, today is the day when I have to update the Guitar Hero video one way or another, or at least send out a simple blog post.

Otherwise, fans on the Internet will really forget her.

【】

However, today, when Goto Ichiri was writing a blog post, he couldn't write a single word.

She tried to imitate her past self.

I went on a date with Iruma-san in Shimokitazawa today! We had a lot of fun. The livehouse in Shimokitazawa is really fun.

After typing this string of words, Goto Ichiri deleted them all.

Finally it becomes:

[I'm very sorry that some small things happened before, but from today on, I will continue to work hard to update, so please don't unfollow me.]

As for the "Iruma-san" that appears in her daily tweets, he is probably dead.

66 Sushi's Secret and Liang's Decision

Tuesday morning, a rare moment of peace.

For some reason, when Hibiki Iruma got up and looked out the window at the sky that had just brightened, he felt a sense of long-lasting peace.

Maybe it’s because of the recent turmoil?

In fact, if it weren't for Ichichi Hongxia, he probably wouldn't have the courage to go to Xiuhua High School yesterday.

I just endure the worry until I am tortured to the point of being unrecognizable, and then I finally decide to do something.

From this perspective, he should thank Ichichi Hongxia for the peace today, giving him the advice and courage to make decisive decisions.

The worst worry was over last night.

And today is a new day anyway.

The ending of "Jane Eyre" is the opening of Hibiki at this moment.

The early morning light fell on his face.

Last night, he didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Nagasaki Suyo was unexpectedly clingy?

Iruma Hibiki opened the refrigerator door, took out the milk, drank two sips directly, then turned on his cell phone. The chat he had with Nagasaki Suyo last night was endless.

The two of them started chatting almost from the moment they came back.

Until bedtime at 10 o'clock.

It took Hibiki Iruma 5 minutes to find where the chat started yesterday, which was the messages that Nagasaki Motoyo sent him when he was working part-time.

Speaking of which——

It was at this moment that Hibiki Iruma realized a detail that he had not noticed in the past.

Nagasaki Suyo seems to be living alone at the moment.

Although she never said this on her own initiative, it is easy to come to this conclusion by simply analyzing the messages she sends on a daily basis.

Although it is not certain how long this situation lasted, the messages sent by Nagasaki Motoyo since the two confirmed their relationship have vaguely confirmed this.

Is it because your family is busy?

Iruma Hibiki thought about it and felt a little curious. After all, the so-called way of life of a young lady was a completely new field for him.

However, Nagasaki Suyo's chats reveal her daily life.

After school, on some days I would go to the music club practice and come home a little later, but more often I would go home on time after school.

My home is about 30 minutes away from school. On a street corner on the way, there is a restaurant that Nagasaki Sushi likes to eat at.

She usually has her dinner in the store.

Next-

To be honest, for ordinary high school students, the next period of time will actually be all the high school memories for the next few decades.

Go on adventures with your best friends.

Practice with your bandmates.

Go shopping in the mall with my best friend.

Or maybe he found a fun arcade machine on the corner and played until all the coins in his pocket were gone - anyway, any extra pocket money would be donated to Sega and the video game bugs.

Even bad high school students will win and lose at pachinko.

Not to mention some cash-

This period of time, which is about 5 hours, is actually the answer sheet of high school career.

And the answer given by Nagasaki Suyo was blank.

There seems to be nothing to do except chatting and watching videos online.

I seem to have been practicing bass more recently.

Iruma Hibiki had heard Nagasaki Motoyo say in person that she had always been like this.

He closed the refrigerator door and then leaned against its metal shell. The coldness of the metal from behind made him feel a little comfortable.

Maybe it’s because the weather has really warmed up.

He is sober at the moment.

Maybe it’s because I discovered a lover’s little secret?

Hibiki Iruma was staring at the chat history of Nagasaki Motoyo in a daze.

"Hibiki, what are you laughing at?"

I don't know how much time passed, but suddenly Iruma Hibiki's mother's voice came from the corridor.

"Did I smile, Mom?"

"Oh, yes. You've been leaning against the refrigerator and grinning since just now. Did something good happen?"

Iruma laughed out loud.

"What's wrong? Was what I just said weird?"

"It's not surprising, Mom. It's just that one of my favorite authors has a character who likes to greet people with 'Did something good happen?'"

The author that Hibiki Iruma said he liked very much was actually Nisio Isin.

But unfortunately, he, like Iruma, does not exist in this world.

Therefore, I can only use authors I like very much as pseudonyms.

"I see. But Hibiki is chatting with his girlfriend, right? He looks very happy."

Iruma Hibiki was silent for a while.

"um, yes."

Then he happily affirmed.

Then, about half an hour passed.

Iruma Hibiki received Nagasaki Suyo's good morning greetings on time.

Good morning, Xiang.

Good morning, Sushi.

A quick chat and then the usual morning chat before school.

Iruma Hibiki became even more certain that Nagasaki Soyo actually lived alone.

Whether it is morning or noon.

Be it after school or late at night.

Nagasaki Suyoto is just one person.

Around her, it seemed as if the only people there were the members of the performance club and the band he and Ijichi Kouka were in.

However, no matter what Hibiki Iruma thought, he would not realize it at this moment.

At this moment, what exactly does what he has unearthed mean in the depths?

He was just slightly more gentle when accompanying Nagasaki Suyo in the morning, until they went to school——

Perhaps it was the tacit understanding that had developed between the two of them recently.

After Iruma Hibiki got off the train, there were no more messages from Nagasaki Suyo.

Occasionally, I would reply with a few words when he sent me a message.

When he arrived at school, all the chatting came to an abrupt end. Then, when Iruma Hibiki stepped into the classroom, he saw Ijichi Kouka waving to him, and Yamada Ryo leaning on his seat.

This scene, which looked like bullying no matter how you looked at it, made Hibiki Iruma smile slightly.

"Good morning, Iruma-san. Ryo, do you remember what I just said?"

"Ah."

"What did you just say?"

Iruma Hibiki put down the schoolbag in his hand and looked at Yamada Ryo in front of him with a hint of curiosity.
