The Stand in the Everyday World

Just when Kasumigaoka Utaha was in autism, Sakurajima Mai spoke up: "Shunsuke-kun, why don't you introduce your relationship with Kasumigaoka-san?"

"Shiyu is my junior in writing. I met her two years ago when I wrote a recommendation for her novel through an editor."

"Oh, Shiyu, you're really close." Sakurajima Mai said with a fake smile, "I was wondering why a certain person who only knows how to sleep in class has been targeting me recently, and is so sarcastic. So that's how it is."

"Heh, it seems that someone really has no self-awareness." Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a fake smile, "She is still Mai-san, but she is so confident. Trash-kun is just someone's agent. Someone doesn't think this is a confession, does he? This seems to be just a work relationship."

"I won't tell you who is anxious now."

"It's just that we're colleagues, so why would we be so strict?"

Looking at the two people who started to be sarcastic to each other after a disagreement, Fujii Shunsuke felt for the first time what a Shura field was. These two girls were the kind of girls with strong personalities. Sakurajima Mai, the independent and strong semi-social person, was not as easy to bully as Eriri, the loser. If they continued arguing, it would be bad.

Thinking of this, he intervened again and interrupted, "Mai-san, the lunch box is getting cold. Let's go upstairs and eat lunch first."

"That's true. After all, Shunsuke-kun begged me to make this lunch box, so it would be a shame to waste it."

Shunsuke Fujii grinned but said nothing.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes emitted a strange light, and then she smiled as if nothing had happened, "Trash-kun is really something, a big star is so busy and yet you still ask her to help make lunch boxes. Next time, just leave this kind of thing to me. This is a thank you for writing a novel for me, Trash-kun."

"I'm not saying anything, Shiyu, can you cook? In my impression, you're a housework idiot."

It seemed like Shunsuke Fujii didn't understand what Kasumigaoka Utaha meant at all, and instead he was trying to sabotage her.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was a little dissatisfied, and Sakurajima Mai felt the same way.

Girls in this world are not so idle as to prepare lunch boxes for insignificant boys. Having done this, as long as they are not the dull boys in the animations, everyone knows what it means. This behavior is already very proactive for the girl, and it's just a matter of getting a face-to-face A.

Based on their daily interactions, both of them knew that Shunsuke Fujii was not the kind of slow-witted man, but in this matter, he always behaved very straightforwardly...

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Mai Sakurajima, who had already stepped half a foot into society, understood that this was already an answer of some kind. Even though Kasumigaoka Utaha understood it a little bit in her heart, she still had some expectations.

In the past, whether it was Mai Sakurajima or Utaha Kasumigaoka, two proud women would naturally not look at this kind of man well, especially Mai Sakurajima, who was much more difficult to deal with rationally than the otaku senior who had almost zero interpersonal communication and was soft inside and hard outside and easy to fall into. You want to fish? Sorry, I won't play with you!

But after experiencing puberty syndrome, when everyone forgot about her, only that boy still remembered her and never left her. This wonderful experience made the strong and mature Sakurajima Mai difficult to let go.

——And since neither Shunsuke nor I have confessed our feelings, I always feel ungrateful if I suddenly distance myself from him without any reason.

——So don’t be in a hurry, just play with him. In this situation, it’s still unclear who is the hunter and who is the prey!

Sakurajima Mai was finding excuses for herself in her heart, but at the same time she felt unhappy with herself. She seemed to be trapped like this idiot next to her who seemed strong but was actually emotionally weak.

The two senior students suddenly looked at each other, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy.

Shunsuke Fujii saw that Mai Sakurajima's face looked a little strange. Although he couldn't guess her specific complicated thoughts, he still had some idea why it was like this, but he was also helpless!

If you want everyone to become your wings, the experience of the pioneers has warned everyone that it is absolutely not okay to confess actively. Then, you can only use the slow-witted male protagonist method of "I didn't hear it clearly just now" or "I don't know anything".

At this moment, Fujii Shunsuke deeply understood the feelings of countless "slow" male protagonists. At this moment, he was not fighting alone. Ichijo Raku, Hasegawa Kodaka, Izumi Masamune, Yuuki Rito... At this moment, countless "slow" male protagonists were possessed, and Fujii Shunsuke was not fighting alone!

As for Huang Quan Yue Luna and the others?

According to feminism, this is called separating love and desire, which are two completely different things.

Let's just take it seriously and listen.

Finding that his attempt to change the subject seemed to have failed, Fujii Shunsuke was not discouraged and tried to change the subject again, but the girls who had a tacit understanding this time would not give him another chance.

"Trash, how did you know the old woman's age? Your editor didn't tell you all this, did you? Or did you specifically investigate it?"

"Shunsuke-kun, after explaining Kasumigaoka-san's confusion, could you please explain your experience at Hyakkaou Academy? The assistant said something very interesting."

Sakurajima Mai and Kasumigaoka Utaha took a step forward at the same time in tacit understanding, with kind expressions on their faces.

Among them, Kasumigaoka Utaha's problem was easy to solve, but Sakurajima Mai's words made him feel a little uneasy.

Normally, I wore the mask for too long, and as a result, it began to be released unconsciously in the chaotic land of Baihuawang Academy. Now that I think about it, I bet on the right to use Huangquanyue Luna in front of so many people, and after winning, I even carried her away in public. I must have been crazy to do such a thing!

Momobami Kirari, so scary.

Fujii Shunsuke immediately blamed Momobami Kirari, and then...

Smash Varudo!

In the world where time has stopped, Shunsuke Fujii was thinking seriously. The most important question now was how much Mai Sakurajima knew now.

——Although they are Yumeng Niyou Meimi’s team, those people are not students of Hyakkaou Academy. As outsiders, they have no right to enter Hyakkaou Academy, an aristocratic school. Otherwise, Yumeng Niyou Meimi’s own assistant should not be the girl with glasses who looks very childish at first glance.

——In addition, judging from Mai’s previous attitude, she had no intention of speaking out at first, which means that in her eyes the problem should not be serious!

Shunsuke Fujii quickly unraveled the key points and decided to talk about some minor problems to fool people. Even if he didn't think of so many things, his choice would probably not change.

After all, if you confess, you will be treated leniently, if you stay in prison for life, if you resist, you will be treated severely and can go home for the New Year. On issues like this, all we need to remember is this:

115. Miss Mai wants him to confess

"I have only met Natsuno Kirihime once so far, and it was with you, Shiyu. Don't let your imagination run wild."

"Mai, I went to Hundred Flower King Academy to find resources for you. Look, this is the role I finally got for you. It's the main supporting actress in a big-budget TV series. It's your first role after your re-debut. I spent a lot of effort to get this from those second-generation rich people."

Kasumigaoka Utaha’s problem is neither easy nor difficult to solve, but Fujii Shunsuke has a clear conscience, as he hasn’t taken any action against Natsuno Kirihime yet!

As for Mai Sakurajima, he continued to avoid the main issue with a guilty conscience and took out the contract that he was about to give to Mai Sakurajima in advance.

"Shunsuke-kun, you can actually be a good agent." Sakurajima Mai took the contract with a complicated expression and quickly flipped through it.

Kasumigaoka Utaha beside her said, "If Sakurajima-san thinks so, then why did you choose Trash-kun as your agent?"

Mai Sakurajima calmly replied while flipping through the contract, "It's okay. Even if Shunsuke-kun is a loser, I can still afford him."

Kasumigaoka Utaha felt like she was being shown off.

"By the way, I recently acquired a publishing house that was originally quite big, but is now on the verge of bankruptcy. Now I'm in a hurry to fill the library and build a reputation. Shiyu, why don't you submit your new book to me? I'll give you all the publicity resources. And editor Machida, can you convince her to change jobs? The salary is negotiable."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was shocked: "Acquire a publishing house? Do popular and bestselling light novel writers make that much money? I remember that your sales volume only exceeded 800 million copies... Although 800 million copies in three years is also a freak, the money you earn shouldn't be enough to acquire a publishing house, right?"

16 volumes of novels in three years, with an average sales volume of 50 per volume. With this writing speed and sales volume, Shunsuke Fujii can bear being called a monster.

"Well, I received selfless help from some kind-hearted people, so I have more money."

For example, Momobami Kirari, Momobami Kirari and Momobami Kirari.

"It's actually fine for me, but it's a bit difficult to convince Editor Machida to change jobs. Although she's very nice to me, after all, I'm just one of her authors, and I'm the kind of person who has a lot of unexpected situations and is hard to deal with."

Kasumigaoka Utaha bit the nail of her left thumb unconsciously, and her attention was completely shifted to the topic that Fujii Shunsuke was talking about.

"But you actually dared to say that my new work is used to fill the library, Junk-kun, you are really a lot bolder."

After realizing that it was very easy for her to agree to Fujii Shunsuke's request, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was afraid of being considered a "cheap" woman, wanted to pull it off.

"Aren't light novels that don't sell more than one million copies after five volumes are just used to fill library shelves?" Fujii Shunsuke accidentally spoke out.

"It feels like Shunsuke-kun said something so outrageous that he's going to get burned."

Looking at the frozen Kasumigaoka Utaha, Sakurajima Mai complained.

"...I'm going back to the classroom for lunch."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's already low self-confidence was made even worse, and she left like a sleepwalker.

Shunsuke Fujii felt sorry for Kasumigaoka Utaha in his heart. He thought he was such a scumbag. He used the PUA skills so naturally. When he peeled off that layer of proud outer shell, Kasumigaoka Utaha was just a weak little girl. She was not even as brave as Eriri in terms of feelings.

Although Eriri was a loser from the beginning to the end, she dared to dump Tomoya Aki, who could not let her feel pressured, for the sake of her dream. Although it sounds masochistic, her decisiveness is not comparable to that of Kasumigaoka Utaha, who followed her step by step.

But in order to cross the thorny road to the harem, Fujii Shunsuke had no choice but to ignore the sense of morality formed by his past life experiences. This is not necessary for starting a harem!

"Come on, Shunsuke-kun, the bento is getting cold from the wind, ah——"

Unaware of Fujii Shunsuke's complicated feelings, Sakurajima Mai's mood suddenly brightened up. She decided to let the younger student understand her senior's ease and tease him.

"Wow."

Shunsuke Fujii ate it in one bite and even put Sakurajima Mai's chopsticks in his mouth.

Instead, Sakurajima Mai was startled and her hand unconsciously pulled back, but she didn't pull it back.

Only when Fujii Shunsuke opened his mouth did she finally take back her chopsticks.

Looking at the slight mark on the edge of the chopsticks, Sakurajima Mai fell silent.

"Huh? Mai-san, why don't you eat? Your lunch box is getting cold." Fujii Shunsuke's tone was very annoying. "No way, no way, as an 'adult', Mai-san wouldn't mind an indirect kiss, right? That's something only elementary school students would care about. Mai-san is so mature, she wouldn't care about such a small matter as an indirect kiss with someone younger than her."

Mai Sakurajima glared at Shunsuke Fujii, but instead of looking scary, she looked cute.

"That's true, but I don't care about this kind of thing. I'm just surprised that you're so hungry that you're willing to eat anything."

This is what it means to be stubborn and steadfast.

"I've experienced worse things in my acting career. I don't mind a mere indirect kiss."

"Something more extreme?" Fujii Shunsuke's face darkened. "Didn't Mai say she never participated in a kissing scene?"

Sorry, I'm just such a double standard.

"Yes, that was the role of the senior who played the leading role. Although I said that I experienced it while acting, I don't think I said it was my own experience. Seeing others do it up close should also be considered as experience."

Mai Sakurajima held back her laughter, picked up the food from her lunch box with the chopsticks that Shunsuke Fujii had bitten, and put it into her mouth. Her face turned red in an instant, and she didn't say a word, but she ate faster.

"Mai-san, this is very mean."

Mai Sakurajima blushed and said nothing. After a while, when she had finished her lunch box, she said, "But Shunsuke-kun likes me more like this, right?"

Straight ball! Another straight ball! The second time of the day, Mai Sakurajima is worthy of being a mature "adult", her offensive is continuous.

"No, no matter what kind of personality Mai has, she's very cute. I like them all."

It seemed like Shunsuke Fujii didn't understand what Mai Sakurajima was saying. He kept saying "daisiki", but Mai Sakurajima was sure that if she continued to ask, this "like" would turn into like in another sense.

Mai Sakurajima felt very unhappy and her competitive spirit took over, so she decided to compete with Shunsuke Fujii.

After I have charmed Shunsuke Fujii and made him confess to me, I will definitely take advantage of him.

Basically, Mai-senpai wanted him to confess his feelings.

116. Kitagawa Umi: Isn’t the purpose of working part-time just to make money?

Two consecutive attacks in one day were both ineffective. Even Mai Sakurajima didn't want to launch a third attack.

In addition, they had finished their lunch boxes and discussed work matters, so they packed up their dishes and left the rooftop.

"By the way, Mai-san, where did you get this key?"

Seeing Mai Sakurajima locking the door to the rooftop, Shunsuke Fujii asked curiously. You know, in order to prevent students from jumping off the building, Sakurajima's high school usually prohibits students from going to the rooftop in various ways.

"I'm a third-year student, so it's not surprising that I have a key to the rooftop."

"Is there any connection?"

"That Kasumigaoka Utaha, she didn't know the rooftop door was open, but she still came up with a lunch box, which proves that she also has the key."

"indeed."

"Then it's no wonder I have it."

Fujii Shunsuke nodded: "This logic makes perfect sense."

......

"Senior, you're back. I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

As soon as he returned to the classroom, Shunsuke Fujii felt that many eyes were lingering on him. He was confused when he saw a hot blonde girl waving at him enthusiastically from her seat. There were several other girls around her.

"Kitagawa, where did you come from, this socially gifted person?"

Although I already have a certain understanding of Kitagawa Umi's affinity and negotiation skills, but how dare you go to the senior class alone in Sakurajima and mingle with the seniors in the class? Who are you from?... If you are the heroine, then it's okay.

"Senior, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing, so you came to see me at noon without contacting me by phone beforehand. Is there something going on?"

After nodding to the people around him, Fujii Shunsuke prepared to leave the classroom with Kitagawa Umi.

"Because I feel like this kind of thing should be discussed in person. It's too informal to talk on the phone."

Kitagawa Umi said this in a normal voice before leaving the classroom.

Looking at everyone who suddenly became quiet, Fujii Shunsuke felt a little headache.

"What, are you going to confess?!"

"How bold!"
