I refuse to be a plagiarist

But compared to Hayasaka Ai, who holds an important position for a certain young lady, they still have more of the innocence and romance that ordinary high school girls should have.

At least in Hasegawa's opinion, the two people in front of him were obviously not the type who were scheming and liked to plot against others.

On the other hand, after learning that Hasegawa had been writing an online novel recently, Ji Karen was the first to express a strong interest.

After all, the girl's father is the president of a publishing house, and he himself has a strong interest in creation. He even privately drew comics with the campus life of Shuchiin Academy as the background.

Now that she met such a "like-minded person", she instantly became an open chatterbox, as if she had endless things to say.

"........Hasegawa, just tell us what you wrote, okay?"

"Ha, haha, well... let's just keep this as a secret.

Of course, let me make it clear in advance that what I write is not some R18 banned book. "

He chatted with the two girls with ease.

Just looking at Hasegawa who seemed to have forgotten something, Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but sigh softly, and then quietly reached her hand to his lower back from behind...

Chapter 64: Hasegawa is labeled with an unknown label

"hiss----!"

The piercing pain made him gasp.

And looking at the boy's body tensed up suddenly, as if

"Hasegawa-kun, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, nothing, it seems like I was bitten by a mosquito."

While touching his waist which was a little painful due to the sneak attack, Hasegawa first gave a pitiful smile to the two girls from the media department who asked him kindly, and then looked at Hayasaka Ai beside him with a pointed look:

"I've heard before that female mosquitoes like to bite people and suck blood in order to lay eggs, but now it seems... it's not just because of biological instinct.

You said so, huh?

Although I didn't know whether there was bleeding inside my clothes, the pain I felt just now was real torture.

"what!

You...um...what are you talking about?"

He withdrew his hand that was secretly doing bad things behind Hasegawa.

Faced with the curious gazes of her two classmates, even Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Although the two of them were now playing the roles of a couple in love, the sneaky little action just now was completely her own unintentional behavior.

I don't know what I was thinking at the time, but by the time I came to my senses, I had already stretched out my hand and pinched the flesh on the other person's waist...

"Okay, okay...just treat it as if I was just talking nonsense."

Seeing the girl blushing and lowering her head, Hasegawa shrugged his shoulders, not knowing whether she was really shy or just pretending to be shy, and then changed the subject:

“By the way, although I’ve said this before, to be honest, I’m really… um.

When you guys give me some pointers later, please don’t laugh at me too much.”

A hint of self-mockery appeared on his face.

After the conversation just now, he had learned that the two people in front of him had been exposed to music theory since they were very young.

Not only that, but he often participates in related activities at school, which is completely the opposite of a beginner like me.

Plus, Hayasaka Ai is proficient in all kinds of strange abilities, including this one...

Even though he looks cheerful now, his heart is already filled with nervousness.

Unlike his indifferent buddies like Shirogane Yuxing, he still has some concerns about his face when interacting with the opposite sex.

Seeing his faintly exposed emotions, the two girls sitting opposite him smiled at each other, revealing tolerant and warm smiles:

"Hehe...Relax a little."

"That's right. For most people, no one is great from the beginning."

Conveying encouragement and kindness to the new partner in front of him.

Hayasaka Ai also turned around and looked at Hasegawa beside her. She quietly gave him an encouraging gesture and explained to the two students opposite her in a boastful manner:

“This guy is just being modest.

You guys can just listen to it, but don’t take it seriously.”

"Hehe... I know, I know.

But I really didn't expect that Hayasaka-san would have such a side to you."

“That’s right.

You have such a close relationship with Hasegawa, no wonder you were not interested in the boys who pursued you in school......"

He stared at Hayasaka Ai in front of him with a look full of mockery.

In response to Kallen and Erica's teasing, the girl blushed and lowered her head, and her little hand grabbed someone next to her, looking embarrassed.

"........."

[This acting is... OK! ]

He looked down at Hayasaka Ai's shy appearance.

If he hadn't known in advance that they were not really dating, Hasegawa felt that he might really have mistaken the guy in front of him for a girl who was in love with him.

[What a terrifying skill...]

I sighed silently in my heart.

Looking at the performance of the girl next to him, Hasegawa suddenly realized that the disguise skills that he thought were pretty good before seemed to be just at the level of a child playing house. Compared with the other party, they were not even up to the standard.

This also made him wonder what Hayasaka Ai's job was.

After all, for ordinary jobs, such comprehensive skill training seems a bit too much...

“Huh~ here we are.”

"Hey Mr. Hasegawa, you're here again.

"Wow——"

His attention shifted to the three girls behind Hasegawa.

Looking at the delicate and lovely appearance of Hayasaka and the others, the waiter gently poked his chest with his elbow and winked at him meaningfully:

"Three heroes fighting Lu Bu, I didn't expect you to be so good at martial arts."

"Haha... Don't get the wrong idea, he's just my friend."

"Really--?"

He asked in a teasing tone.

Only after confirming that Hasegawa was not joking with him did the waiter regain his normal attitude and become serious again:

"I'm so sorry, guys. I was just joking."

He bowed apologetically to the three girls behind Hasegawa.

Later, while leading everyone to the private room, the waiter quietly complained:

"To be honest, if it weren't for today, I really wouldn't dare to stay with you privately."

"Ah, why?"

Looking at the boy in front of him curiously.

Although he had just escaped poverty, every time he came here to practice singing, in order to prevent some people from gossiping, he would usually give a considerable tip to the waiter who followed him.

Well, at least according to the average level of students, it is not a small number.

Therefore, in Hasegawa's opinion, no waiter should be unwilling to meet a "generous" customer like himself.

"Alas... Strictly speaking, it's actually our fault."

In response to Hasegawa's question, the waiter blushed slightly, and then whispered the truth.

It turns out that the middle school students who come here to sing are basically friends or couples in love. When they get excited, the latter will even do some embarrassing things in the private room.

And "freaks" like Hasegawa, who are always alone or often form groups with his good friend Shirogane and never ask for singing girls, coupled with his "generous" nature, have naturally caused discussions within the waiter group for a long time.

Over time, in their gossip-filled discussions, they labeled this amazing boy as a "suspected gay."

Because of this, every time Hasegawa came to practice singing, he would always meet male waiters instead of the gorgeously dressed harp-playing ladies...

Chapter 65: Subtle Distance

“…That’s how it is.

I am truly sorry for discussing you behind your back without your permission.

As compensation, Mr. Hasegawa, we will pay for all your spending in the store today."

He bowed seriously to the young man in front of him.

Perhaps because he is usually quite generous, the waiter who works part-time here and received a lot of tips from Hasegawa in the past couldn't help feeling full of guilt when he saw Hasegawa's innocent look and clueless expression.

After listening to the other party's explanation, Hasegawa couldn't help but feel a headache.

"Ah, you guys are really...

How could someone like me look like a gay?"

Although it is normal to talk about people or things behind their backs, when it happens to oneself and one is labeled with inexplicable labels, Hasegawa still feels an inexplicable sense of suffocation.

Not only did he talk about it in private, he also deliberately replaced all his waiters with men.

——What is this?

“Forget about the free bill or anything like that.

I just want to ask you to help me completely dispel the rumors that you spread before, OK?

As a well-developed male, my sexual orientation is normal!"

As a former worker himself, he understood very well what kind of determination the young man in front of him had in making the decision to help him and others to pass the order.

The sincerity shown by the other party prevented him from getting too angry.

But no matter what, he still didn't want anything weird to come out after this.

Gay or something...

"Before, it was just because I didn't have time and it was inconvenient. Now, let's take a look..."

"Ah, Xiu..."

"Look, I have a girlfriend, okay!"

Very naturally, he pulled Hayasaka Ai, who was standing aside and hadn't reacted yet, over.

Since they are currently in a relationship, Hasegawa simply goes with the flow and uses this ready-made opportunity to clear himself of the inexplicable stain.

"Well, please rest assured, this is what we should do."

He nodded seriously.

After that, after hearing the whole story, Kallen and Erica, who came to the private room with the two men, couldn't help but tremble with laughter. Their shoulders kept shaking, and they looked like they were having a hard time holding back.

"that......

If you really can't help it, just laugh your ass off."

He looked at the two girls with a strange look on his face, looking very uncomfortable.

If you ask yourself honestly, what happened to you is indeed quite ridiculous in the eyes of others.

[Are even the guys in KTV so good at coming up with ideas now? ]

“It’s really strange…”

"Well, what happened?"

"I mean...
