This is not the date I wanted.

"Hehe, it took me a lot of effort to take this photo. It was like this... like this..."

"You are really not simple...

The two of them were talking about someone's photos in women's clothing with such gusto, just like elementary school students discussing a popular card game. If Shidou knew, his expression would definitely be quite strange.

"I want this photo. How much is it?"

Halfway through the conversation, Origami suddenly said this to Mengyue.

Well, actually, there is nothing wrong with giving it to Origami. After all, in a sense, it is not a bad thing to share your hobbies with people who have the same hobbies. And due to the instinct of otaku, in addition to the negatives as the originals, there is also a mounted collector's edition at home, a version for himself to supplement Shiori's elements, and a preaching edition for dissemination.

Although if Shidou knew what Mengyue was thinking, he would definitely kill this habit in the cradle without caring about the elf's mood.

However... Mengyue seemed to have thought of something and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Humph... How foolish of you, Origami-san! How can such a divine object be measured by mere money or other mundane things?"

If I were there, I would definitely take back the photo and strongly deny Meng Yue's remarks. However, this made Origami speechless for a moment.

"what do you want……"

AST's confidential files? DEM's super-heavy weapons? The legendary sword of the brave hidden somewhere in the world? Or the one piece that the pirates are looking for? Origami can still find a way to do these depending on the situation.

(Author: “You can actually do that…”)

"Well, it's actually no big deal. Please don't report my true identity to AST. I personally don't want to attract too much attention."

Origami was silent for a moment. The appearance of an elf in the school was enough to attract AST's attention. Moreover, the elf was the most dangerous elf. What if the elf did something when she wasn't paying attention...

"By the way, I'll also include a picture of Shidao's househusband apron outfit."

Well... this photo was taken just to bribe Origami.

"make a deal!"

Origami answered readily.

The deal was completed secretly and both parties achieved satisfactory results.

Suddenly, Mengyue felt hungry in her stomach.

Um... Come to think of it, it’s almost time to go for dinner. I don’t know what kind of bread Yamai and the others bought. I forgot to tell them in advance.

"hungry?"

"Well, I haven't had lunch yet..."

"for you."

"Eh?"

Before Mengyue could react, Origami had already handed the bread in his hand to Mengyue.

"As a return gift, and today, I owe you a favor."

"So what are you going to do? Is it okay to skip lunch?"

"It doesn't matter. Compared to the photo of Shidao Shiori, skipping lunch is nothing."

Well... I can understand her feelings to some extent.

"Well, I won't be polite then."

Too much hypocrisy and evasion would only lead to unhappiness, and it was obvious that Origami would not have any good feelings towards the elves. And thinking that Yamai and Shidou were almost changed, Mengyue waved and left.

"After school, before going to training, I have to go to the shopping street and buy two suitable photo frames."

Origami thought to herself as she carefully wrapped the photo with a handkerchief.

——————————————————————————————————I am the dividing line that switches back to the classroom————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"Special training! I must undergo a steel-like training to be reborn. Let them realize the horror of the Son of the Hurricane."

"Nod. This humiliation must be repaid."

"...Shidou-kun, could you please explain to me the cause of this phenomenon?"

Meng Yue looked at the Yami sisters who kept complaining, and asked Shidou beside her with a calm face.

"Um...it's a long story."

Shidou scratched his cheek and smiled bitterly.

To put it simply, the canteen at Raizen High School becomes a battlefield at lunchtime, and Yamai Yakuya and Yamai Yuzuru are eliminated in the fierce battle for survival, and are mocked by the top four high school canteen kings... three of them, "AirReal (flying with a blow)", "Professor (smelly chaos)" and "PickPocker (oops, sorry)", who have the titles of Chuunibyou. Then, the tone of the story changes, and Shidou is pointed out to be the retired canteen king of the generation - "Dispel (no reaction)", and then... nothing happens.

"I am also drunk with this amazing development that I don't know where to start complaining about..."

Mengyue said that her expression at this moment was completely embarrassed.

However, if Meng Yue knew that she actually got bread from the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, the "perfectionist" Miss Tobiichi Origami, she would probably only be able to "humph..." and smile bitterly.

"Result? You guys aren't going to have lunch?"

"Kuku! Your worries are unnecessary. I have decided to engrave this humiliation into my bones, and then undergo a purgatory-like training to transform myself, and give those ignorant humans the punishment of the Son of a Hurricane."

"Using a classic. This is a desperate move."

"Well... I'll eat this bread myself then."

"--Well!"

When seeing Mengyue take out the bread from his pocket, Yawu and the others showed obvious hesitation.

"Eh? Mengyue, have you been to the store?"

Shidou asked with some curiosity.

"Well, it's a reward for helping a classmate with a small favor."

After telling a little lie, Mengyue shrugged and said.

"Come to think of it, lunch break is almost over. Shidou, it's about time for you to go back to your classroom!"

“…Huh? But Yakuya and the others…”

“…About this…”

Feeling two sharp gazes staring at the bread in her hand, Mengyue turned her head, and Yawu hurriedly turned her head away, indicating that she knew nothing.

"...I'll find a way to deal with this, don't worry."

Although he was a little worried, seeing that Meng Yue had already promised, Shidou just said goodbye and went back to his class.

"Well...cheese fried noodles bread. I heard it's a popular item in the store...the fragrant smell, the sauce wrapped around the outside, the chewy fried noodles and the soft sesame bread are really irresistible..."

goo—

Well, just as planned, a rather embarrassed sound came from behind, which neither of them could control.

"But the portion is a bit too much... I'm not really hungry, what if I can't finish it~"

I deliberately raised my voice and shouted in a troubled tone. As expected, there were some footsteps behind me.

"Well... since my good friend is in trouble, I can't just ignore it."

"Please. Please give some of the food to Yui and Yakuya."

"Ah~ yes, yes."

In the end, Mengyue and the other two shared the fried noodles bread equally.

"Let me make it clear first. I am not here because I am hungry. It is just that I have to be fully prepared for the upcoming battle. The Son of a Hurricane should always respect his opponent."

"It's a common saying. A hungry soldier can't fight a war."

"Hey, I understand. Don't worry."

As for the battle between Yamai and Shido for the latest rainbow cream bread at the store and the legendary Four Heavenly Kings next week, although Mengyue really wanted to say that as long as she made an appointment with the proprietress in advance, she should be able to guarantee it, but when she saw Yamai's face full of fighting spirit, she was tactful enough not to say anything.

PS: Well, since I don't have much inspiration for Qidian.com, I'll just write a short story. Please bear with me for a while.

Dream Moon Idolater (Part 1)

==============================

This happened after the Tiangong Festival, on a day when summer was turning into autumn.

"I'm sorry, Gokawa Shidou-kun, I have to trouble you again."

The woman in front of him who is about twenty years old is called Kurorin Aoi, and she is the agent of Miku's idol activities. A while ago, due to some reasons, Shidao had replaced Ms. Aoi who was accidentally injured as Miku's agent.

Just yesterday at midnight, Gokawa Shido suddenly received a call from Ms. Ang.

"No, it's nothing to me, but why did you ask me to come over and be Miku's manager? Is there something wrong?"

In response to Shidao's question, Ms. Ang sighed.

"No, on the contrary. The recent events have been very successful. Meijiu's popularity has been rising steadily. The first CD was sold out as soon as it was released, and she has also been signed by many businesses for sponsorship... but then the problem arises."

Shidou scratched his head in confusion.

"That... I don't quite understand. Judging from what happened just now, it should be a good thing, right?"

"Yeah...it's true. Speaking of which, it's embarrassing that we were the ones who held Miku back this time."

Ms. Ang smiled bitterly, her face revealing a sense of fatigue.

"How should I put it? An overly favorable development trend that exceeds our ability to handle has become a problem... Gokawa Shidou-kun, do you know the original scale of this event?"

"No... originally?"

"It was originally planned to hold a solo concert for Mijiu in another smaller stadium, with 10,000 tickets sold. A handshake event for Mijiu would also be held for the first 300 female fans who purchased her first album. As a result, within a day of the announcement, all 10,000 tickets were sold out."

"This is really incredible..."

Even though Shidou was not familiar with the entertainment industry, he understood how terrible it was that 10,000 tickets were sold out in one day. This was something that only happened to the concerts of very famous stars. Although Shidou felt that it was not surprising that Miku had reached this level.

"As expected of Miku, you have reached this level in such a short period of time."

"That child has such talent to begin with, and I don't find it strange that he has reached such a level. But this time it was indeed due to some coincidences that Miku's popularity exploded beyond our expectations."

"What happened?"

Shidou asked.

"About not long after the Tiangu Festival ended, someone on the Internet called 'appreciators' spread Miku's CD series on his Weibo, and Miku's popularity skyrocketed instantly."

"Just because of this? It's not strange for fans to share songs of singers they admire." Shidou tilted his head in confusion.

"Shidou, you don't understand." Ms. Subaru looked bitter, shook her head and said, "That Weibo person is not an ordinary character. From a year ago to now, the sales works recommended on that Weibo, whether it is movies or anime novels, have been highly praised later. So they have attracted a lot of attention at home and abroad. And this is the first time that person has recommended a song of a single singer. Miku's songs have been marked with very insightful opinions and comments, so Miku's popularity has increased significantly in an instant."

If Miku was a top idol in Japan before, she is now also very popular in the world.

However, that's why I'm troubled. Aung explained to Shidou with a wry smile.

"Although these appreciators did not state it, they are undoubtedly die-hard fans of Miku. It is a blessing for us to be able to help promote our idol. However, this pie in the sky is really too big."

"The number of tickets originally booked could not meet the demand at all, causing many fans who did not buy tickets to call the agency to complain. So after a period of discussion, we decided to temporarily increase the number of tickets by 30,000, and move the venue to the stadium in Tiangong Square that could accommodate this number of people. The scale of the concert instantly increased several times. Then, a very simple and fatal problem followed - not enough staff!!!"

"Ah...I see."

Shidou felt that he understood instantly.

Because she didn't want to attract attention, Miku chose a very small agency with only three members: her agent, the president, and Miku.

“…budget adjustments, contacting the ticket printing company, explaining and apologizing to fans on the official website, changing rehearsal schedules, negotiating with sponsors, and all sorts of other problems that cropped up. Even though we recruited a few new people in anticipation, they’re completely useless. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh—all of this is on the shoulders of the president and I—”

"Thank you for your hard work."

Looking at Ms. Ang who was wailing in pain with her hands covering her head, Shidao expressed sympathy from the bottom of his heart.

"Well... after getting help from various parties, the problem was finally solved. However, I really don't have the spare time to deal with Miku, and I'm afraid I can't handle it well if I hand it over to a newcomer." Ms. Ang sighed, patted Shidao's shoulder, and said solemnly, "Gokawa Shidao-kun, can you take my place as Miku's agent? Basically, you can handle it the same way as last time. I won't let you down on salary. Please!"

"Well, in that case... I'll do my best."

It's not that he was really tempted by the reward, but when he saw from close up that Ms. Ang had dark circles under her eyes that were not much lighter than Lingyin's, even if Shidao wanted to refuse, he couldn't say it out loud.

"Have you been so helpful? Um... Sorry, I have to answer the phone. Eh? There was a conflict between the fans and the security company!? Wait, wait!? I'll be there right away. Anyway, Miku is in your hands, Gokawa Shido-kun!"

"..."

——Come on! Shidou thought silently as he watched Ms. Ang leave.

……

"Well, that's how it is."
