I refuse to be a plagiarist

In Hasegawa's opinion, this guy named Shirogane Miyuki has a similar possibility.

What do you mean just ordinary classmates... It's just an excuse to fool others!

However, compared to his eagerness, the expression on Ishigami Yu's face at this moment seemed a little tangled:

"Well.....Hasegawa-senpai, please don't be disappointed after hearing this.

In my opinion, there doesn’t seem to be such a relationship between President Shirogane and Senior Shinomiya at the moment.”

“Put…!

Ah, you are talking nonsense! "

Subconsciously, he wanted to transform into a tiger king and swear at the boy in front of him with a classic Chinese curse.

Obviously, just as Ishigami had been struggling with before, Hasegawa Hide was quite dissatisfied with the answer he gave.

"No matter how late they are or how early they leave, you should have seen some of the interactions between those two guys, right?

I don’t believe it…

Even if that icy lady didn't react, didn't Baiyin reveal any details during this time?"

No one is perfect.

At least when it comes to hiding one's thoughts, Hasegawa Hide can guarantee that his friend is definitely not a professional player.

He once saw a sentence on the Internet, which said: You can't hide the love in your eyes when you like someone.

Although it cannot be said to be completely reliable, after comparing it with those guys in his school who like to post dog food, he feels that this sentence is actually quite versatile.

As a result, he naturally had considerable doubts about the news reported by Ishigami Yu.

"But Hasegawa-senpai... President Shirogane really didn't show any strange thoughts towards Shinomiya-senpai.

Rather than being a boy and a girl pursuing the opposite sex, when they are in the student union, it feels more like they are calculating and competing with each other. "

"Oh?

Is this true? ! "

[Strange.....]

I started thinking subconsciously.

The description of this junior reminded Hasegawa of his daily interactions with a certain young lady in class when he was in the first year of high school.

At that time, the two of them were setting traps for each other, plotting and teasing each other.

But the problem is......

[That's not really a sign of wanting to date...]

The expression on his face suddenly became subtle.

If this can be considered as enhancing mutual feelings and moving towards a relationship, then what about me and Yukinoshita?

I shook my head subconsciously.

At least in Hasegawa's own opinion, he and Yukinoshita Haruno were at most good friends, and there was no such trend at all.

At this moment, Ishigami Yuu, who was standing by, suddenly brought up something irrelevant and said very cleverly:

"correct!

When President Shirogane and Senior Shinomiya are in the student council, they are just like you and Senior Yukinoshita!"

Thanks to Shirogane Miyuki, Ishigami Yu also heard some things about Hasegawa Hide's daily life from his president.

I expressed my opinion subconsciously.

But in the face of his self-righteous analogy, Hasegawa on the side glanced at him with an expression that looked like he was a fool, and refuted him without even thinking:

“Like a hook!

You're talking as if you've seen me and Yukinoshita interact at school."

"Um, well..."

Hasegawa's words left Ishigami speechless for a moment.

Just as the other party said, let alone the interaction between this senior and Senior Yukinoshita, even Yukinoshita Haruno is now just a character living in the lines to him, and he doesn't even know what the other person looks like.

So facing Hasegawa Hide's sharp complaints, he could only touch the back of his head and lowered his head in shame...

Chapter 60: Double the Happiness

"Forget it, forget it, I won't make it difficult for you today.

As for the matter about Baiyin, I'd better find a time another day and ask him myself."

Still haven't given up the curiosity in my heart.

However, Hasegawa was not ready to give up on Ishigami's information collection method:

“After returning to school, we’ll explore again!

Understand? "

"........."

[What do you mean by 're-exploring'?

Senior, are you imitating some ancient general? 】

I can't help but think of the scene in some ancient battlefield in movies or TV dramas, where a general orders scouts to "re-explore" the enemy situation.

However, he still agreed to Hasegawa's request.

It’s not that the other party is so tough, but after being reminded by this senior, the boy himself began to gradually develop a gossipy idea about the things between the president Shirogane Miyuki and the vice president Shinomiya Kaguya.

After all, it is human nature to like gossip.

After being aroused by Hasegawa, it was now quite difficult for Ishigami to stop in time.

After all, compared to Hasegawa himself, who is far away from Shirogane, he and the president and the vice-president meet in the student union office every day.

It is undoubtedly quite challenging to resist the urge to observe secretly.

"Okay, it's almost time, I should retreat."

Looking at the already dim light outside the window, Hasegawa stood up and said goodbye to his junior.

Today, the interaction between the two of them, playing games and chatting, made him feel quite relaxed.

However, before leaving, he still shared a piece of information that might be quite interesting to the other party:

"By the way, before I leave, let me tell you something.

That novel....may be adapted into an animation soon."

"what?!"

He looked at the senior in front of him with surprise.

When Ishigami returned to school the next day and shared his experience with Shirogane Miyuki in the student council, the student council president, who seemed to be fighting something strange all the time due to lack of sleep, had an expression on his face that was not much different from that on the weekend:

"real or fake?

Ishigami, did Hasegawa really tell you this?"

He looked at the junior in front of him with disbelief and confirmed it.

Although it is a bit strange, the fact is that he has been uncontrollably fascinated by his friend's work since the first time he saw the first draft. There was even a period of time in his first year of high school when his academic performance improvement stagnated temporarily because he was looking forward to and guessing the subsequent plot.

Now after hearing the news that it will be adapted into an animation, in addition to being happy for his friend, as a loyal reader, Shirogane Miyuki is also beginning to look forward to the specific performance after the animation.

As expected, in response to Shirogane Miyuki's confirmation inquiry, Ishigami Yu's answer did not differ from what he had expected. Instead, he confirmed the news with an equally excited expression:

"it is true.

Senior Hasegawa told me this himself before he left yesterday.

President! "

He looked at Baiyin Yuxing in front of him with a sense of mutual sympathy.

Facing this fellow student who shared the same interest with him, Baiyin also stretched out his hands and held the other's hands.

Happy things added together equal double the happiness.

Looking at the two of them like this, the two girls who had just walked in from the office door didn't know how to react for a moment.

——Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya.

Looking at the two men holding hands in front of them, as if conveying some heavy mission of "protecting the earth", compared to the silent Miss Shinomiya, it was the more lively Fujiwara Chika who took the initiative to come over and asked with a curious expression:

"Ah~?

President, Ishigami, what are you two doing here?

Are you playing some weird game?"

"Secretary Fujiwara (senpai), of course not!" x2

"We two are just......"

Faced with the two girls who suddenly walked in, Ishigami and Shirogane, who were originally sharing their happiness, felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

However, facing this extremely misunderstood situation, Shirogane, as the guild president and senior, thought for a moment and finally decided to take the initiative to step forward and try to resolve the current deadlock:

"Secretary Fujiwara, Shinomiya, do you guys...read novels?

To be more precise, it is a light novel that is quite popular in modern times."

He took the initiative to ask.

If it is a pure novel, then the two people who have received various excellent educations since childhood have obviously dabbled in those classic works.

It was precisely because of this that Baiyin added a sentence at the end after asking the question.

Starting from a relatively broad question and gradually leading to a more detailed option, this kind of guidance is a method often used in scenarios such as speeches or discussions.

【President....】

Behind him was Ishigami Yu, whose eyes constantly revealed gratitude.

Although he also has a strong love for someone's plagiarized work, he would feel a little embarrassed if he were asked to say it in front of other people.

After all, unlike the situation in China where "if your family doesn't have some financial resources and you don't have some capital, you can't stay at home", in Japanese culture, "staying at home" is not a symbol of financial strength, but represents lack of ambition and sloppiness, which is often unpopular in the social environment.

It is also because of this that even though Ishigami himself likes comics, animation and the like very much, he will never expose himself to other people easily when he is in school.

The moment Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya stepped into the student union office, he had already prepared himself for social death, but he never expected that Shirogane Miyuki beside him would stand up like a hero, and it seemed that there was a possibility that he could end the topic perfectly.

【President....】

The admiration in my heart is now beyond words.

On the other hand, in response to Shirogane Miyuki's question, Fujiwara Chika raised her head in annoyance, staring at the ceiling and thinking:

"Light novels...

Unfortunately, although people in the board game club often mention them, I don’t have access to them on a daily basis because of my parents.

President, is this what you were discussing just now? "

He asked subconsciously.

As Fujiwara Chika spoke, Shinomiya Kaguya, who had been exuding an icy aura beside her, also shifted her gaze to Shirogane Miyuki's face.

Chapter 61: What the Miss Doesn't Know

"Ah~la, President.

I never thought you would be interested in that kind of thing."

"Uh!" x2

As soon as he opened his mouth, he started talking about the elderly.

Compared to the reactions of Ishigami and Shirogane, the teasing and slightly sarcastic remarks of this young lady Shinomiya, coupled with the perfect but slightly arrogant smile on her face, obviously expressed silently her inner contempt for things like "light novels".

However, it is indeed like the attitude of this girl. Compared with those traditional literatures that have been famous for a long time, light novels, which have emerged in the Internet era against the background of fast-food culture and have varying quality, do have a "sense of inferiority" that is difficult to comprehend.
