I refuse to be a plagiarist

【Um? 】

"this is......."

Because of his previous financial constraints and the need to use an old phone, there is a gap between him and his classmates who use smartphones, which is called the technological age.

However, on this relatively simple computer, he took advantage of the powerful inclusiveness of the PC and achieved an alternative synchronization.

For example, this chat software is similar to Penguin.

However, unlike those guys who like to have friends everywhere like socialites, he has very few friends on Line, and most of them are guys he met outside of school.

For example, the guy with the flashing pop-up window now, whose note is "Smith A. Hasaka".

——"Can I take up some of your time? I have a question for you."

[Oh? This guy......]

A bit of curiosity emerged in my heart.

Hasegawa Hide first met this "Hasaka" on the Internet when he was in junior high school.

At that time, he maintained a high-intensity study and part-time job life every day. When he returned home every night, the half hour he spent surfing the Internet before going to bed was the happiest and most relaxing time.

In order to maximize the functionality of decompression, he collected several websites with decompression videos and opened a few interesting ones every day to watch.

For example, simple and crude types like "hydraulic press against XXX".

Then one day when Hasegawa was writing a comment under a video, this suspected foreign "like-minded person" inexplicably broke into his life.

As the saying goes: The first time is new, the second time is familiar.

During the conversation, he gradually realized that this foreign girl seemed to have similar pressures and worries as himself.

Moreover, unlike his part-time work and study model, the other party seems to be a full-time player, working hard for his tasks every day.

It is said that Stand users are attracted to each other, and these two people, who are in such similar situations, quickly became close friends.

However, compared to Baiyin Yuxing, who would always make plans to work part-time together whenever he had nothing to do, the frequency of communication between the two was not that frequent because the daily schedule of the person in front of him was quite full.

but.......

[If it's this girl... From my impression, she seems to be someone who knows a lot about fashion. ]

"Why don't you go ask her for advice?"

As soon as the idea came to his mind, Hasegawa Hide began to type quickly on the keyboard.

--"OK.

I just so happen to have something to ask you."

He skillfully added an emoticon of "saving his life with a dog's head" at the end.

Not long after Hasegawa sent the message, accompanied by a prompt sound, an identical "dog head" appeared on the chat page between the two.

——“OK”

He gave his answer very readily.

Compared to Hasegawa's joy, at this moment, in the port area, which was nearly halfway across the city, a blonde girl in a white shirt was in the room, also showing a calm smile to the screen, as if an iceberg had melted...

Chapter 40: Stress-Resistant Maid Hayasaka Ai

Smith A.Hasaka

In fact, she has another Neon version of the name - Hayasaka Ai.

This mixed-race girl that Hasegawa Hide met by chance on the Internet is actually a girl of the same age as him and also in the first year of high school.

To be more precise, it means "accompanying study".

Well, it’s in Xiuzhiyuan where many rich young men gather.

Unlike Hasegawa Hide who was alone and worked hard on her own, this girl's future trajectory was arranged from the moment she was born. As a close attendant of the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, she received a series of studies and education.

This kind of work naturally had extremely generous treatment, but as a price, she had to bear considerable pressure while serving the young lady.

Both of them are beautiful girls in their youth.

If I have to make a metaphor, then she, who lives around the eldest daughter, is like an old mother who worries about her children.

Moreover, since their relationship is more like that of a close friend, she cannot scold or educate this "child" casually like a real mother...

With such high-intensity labor every day, it is natural for one to become the Emperor of Pressure.

There is no way, my body is tired and my mind is even more tired.

However, during this torturous process, she also acquired various skills.

Such as now.

With the help of Miss Hasaka, Hasegawa Hide quickly got a suitable and handsome outfit, and even the place of purchase was clearly marked.

This is truly a professional fighter.

——“Really…if we hadn’t known each other for so long, I would have thought you were a professional salesperson.

Thank you. "

With a hint of joking, he expressed his gratitude to the netizen through the screen.

In response to Hasegawa's message, the other party paused for a moment, and then sent a message that scared him so much that he almost sprayed the water in his mouth onto the table.

——"Do you have a crush on someone recently?"

——“Please…

You know my situation well, love or something...how is that possible?

It's just a simple gathering soon, so we need to prepare in advance and can't be too casual like before."

I explained it briefly to the other party.

Anyway, it's just someone I met online, so even if I describe it in a little more detail, it won't cause me too much trouble.

At least that's what Hasegawa Hide himself thinks.

Compared to the people around him, he is more relaxed when facing netizens on the Internet and doesn't care about small details...

——“I just got into light novels recently and finished one, which I think is pretty good.

Maybe soon I won’t have to live as hard as I did before.”

Simple words inadvertently reveal the sadness of the past.

However, the funny face emoticon attached at the end changed the tone and made the whole style light-hearted and cheerful.

Unlike the slightly aloof self in real life, on the Internet, Hasegawa Hide is actually not much different from the ordinary stupid netizen.

Even because of his experience as a Chinese netizen before traveling through time, to some extent, he is even better than others.

But perhaps it was this carefree attitude of finding joy in adversity that made Miss Hasaka, who was equally anxious every day, become friends with him.

——"Oh, so that's the case. Congratulations in advance."

Opposite side of the screen

Looking at the text message from someone that seemed to be an announcement of good news, Hayasaka Ai's calm face seemed to be infected by a hint of joy.

However, as a professional attendant, she quickly returned to her expressionless poker face.

——"By the way, Hasaka, what was that thing you were talking about before?

If I can be of any help, or if you have any trouble, just let me know."

"......"

The tightly closed lips opened slightly.

Feeling the other person's loyalty, which could be sensed even through the screen, at this moment, Hayasaka Ai actually felt a little ashamed for taking advantage of her friend.

However, since it was about her immature eldest daughter, she thought about it for a while, and finally said her problem:

——"Has your friend named 'Shirogane Yuxing' mentioned anything about school recently?

I recently heard from classmates that he seems to be very close to a girl in school......"

After typing this string of words, the girl looked at the screen quietly, a faint light reflecting in her deep blue eyes.

Recently, the lady Kaguya whom she was responsible for serving seemed to have developed an interest in a classmate.

Although he still looked cold, he would mention that person's name from time to time in private conversations.

——Silver Royal Travel

This made her, as a close attendant, feel a little troubled.

As the daughter of a large conglomerate, while enjoying the convenience brought by her family, the eldest lady named "Shinomiya Kaguya" also shoulders quite heavy responsibilities and obligations.

Some things that seem ordinary to her peers are an unattainable luxury for this young lady.

Naturally, things like premature love would not be allowed by the family.

Of course, for now, this is just a bold guess by Hayasaka Ai. After all, judging from the performance of her own eldest daughter, that cold look does not look like the performance of a girl in love.

It hasn't become a definite fact yet...but to be on the safe side, she still plans to collect relevant information from other channels.

For example, this netizen who makes me feel relaxed and friendly.

From Hayasaka Ai's perspective, this young man with the alias "Tenxiu" had mentioned to her by chance a long time ago that he had interacted with Shirogane Miyuki while working part-time.

In response to Hayasaka Ai's question, Hasegawa, who was originally smiling, was slightly stunned, and then a hint of caution appeared in his eyes.

[Silver? Is it related to girls?]

[Why did Hasaka suddenly want to ask such a strange question...]

Some doubts emerged in my mind. In my mind, the strange look on my friend's face at a dinner party one day also emerged.

However, Hasegawa did not tell the other party this detail after all.

——“No, he hasn’t told me anything about school recently.

But you, Hasaka...why are you suddenly interested in that guy?

Could it be... huh?"

【...】

"This idiot."

He muttered quietly.

Seeing someone's statement full of misunderstandings, the mixed-race lady had a blank expression on her face and unceremoniously responded with an emoticon of someone hitting his head with a hammer.

——"You think too much."

He stood up and stretched out the window.

Most of the worries I had before have now disappeared.

As for this netizen whom she has yet to meet, she feels that she may be able to find an opportunity to meet him in real life...

Chapter 41: Secret Observation

[Is this... angry? ]

[Or is it simply because my joke made you feel uncomfortable? ]

He held his chin and pondered the chat history between the two people on the screen with great interest.

Based on previous communications, Hasegawa Hide believes that this gloomy Miss Hasaka, apart from her obsession with her mother who is often away from her, does not seem like the type who would suddenly want to find someone to fall in love with.

but.......

“Since he knows about Baiyin, it seems that Hasaka should be working near that aristocratic academy on weekdays.

Or...she is actually like me before, studying in that college while working part-time in the surrounding area?"

Transformed into Detective Conan, he boldly speculated on the true identity of Miss Hasaka in reality, bit by bit.

After taking a break from his busy schedule and reading a few more chapters, he fell directly onto the single bed behind him with a satisfied smile.

[Forget it, never mind her...]
