Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

"Maybe I can help with the topic selection."

Nami Takayama immediately said, "In fact, I also helped Reina with the content of her final project this year."

"Because I work at a broadcasting station, I can help a little bit so that she can get high scores at the end of the semester more easily. And it won't waste too much time. She just needs to write some reports."

A little bit of power, right?

Sawayama Haruno exclaimed in his heart, wow, why is this operation so similar to that of the graduating students in his previous life, who went to find companies that could rely on their internship punch-in system in order to solve the problem of their graduation certificates?

"Is it really possible?"

After a moment's silence, Zeshan Haruno asked tentatively, "Will this cause any trouble to Miss Takayama?"

He had to consider whether this favor was too big to owe.

If the favor he owes is huge, or if it is difficult to repay, he would rather fail the course than accept the other party's help.

Fortunately, Takayama Nami is also a smart person. She saw what Sawayama Haruno was thinking about, so after a light laugh, she patiently said, "Don't worry, it's just a piece of cake."

"Kirishama-sensei better agree."

Even Morikawa Riho beside him couldn't help but say, "It will be troublesome if you fail the exam. Don't forget that you said before that you would finish the next book as soon as possible, and next year, there might be other things."

She has her own little thoughts.

Instead of asking Nami Takayama to offer "something else" in exchange for the opportunity to be interviewed by Haruno Sawayama, it would be better to exchange it with a favor such as a final exam project, so as to avoid "further communication".

So please agree to it quickly, Mr. Kiriyama!

"That's true. I'll leave it to you, Miss Gaoshan."

Sawayama Haruno thought about it and felt that what they said made sense, so he agreed.

In this way, the final exam is set in stone.

And he doesn't need to spend extra time on practical work. He only needs to write two reports on the work content, and with the certificate provided by Nami Takayama, he can easily get high scores.

Chapter 270 A Nighttime Meeting with Mana [Seeking a Monthly Ticket]

Now that the difficult problem at the end of the semester has been solved, it would be difficult for Sawayama Haruno to shirk the responsibility of taking care of the next task.

Fortunately, he had originally planned to agree for the sake of Riho Morikawa.

Therefore, when Nami Takayama asked about it later, he agreed readily.

"Just a simple interview, right?"

Zeshan Haruno asked curiously: "What's the exact time?"

"Next week will be fine. We can just schedule it according to Mr. Kiriyama's free time."

"Do I need to prepare anything in advance?"

"No need." Takayama Nami explained with a smile, "Teacher Kiriyama just needs to briefly describe some things that happened during his creation, and some things about the Kyoto competition."

As a professional, Nami Takayama knows very well how to create topics effectively.

What's more, there are many things about Sawayama Haruno that can be used as hot topics. First of all, he was born in the University of Tokyo and was able to publish his own novels at a young age. This is not something that ordinary people can do.

Not to mention that even before he made his debut, he was able to defeat a number of industry seniors by participating in literary competitions, and even Shibata Shinkai praised his books.

These places are full of explosive points, and coupled with the promotion that Shibata Shinkai made on his own Twitter account some time ago, it will only increase the news value of Sawayama Haruno. No, to be more precise, it is Kiriyama Fuyumi who has this person.

While no one is aware of this rising star, you can prepare your own articles in advance, establish a good relationship with him, and do him a favor. If he really becomes successful in the future, you may be able to profit from it.

In simple terms, this means spending little money to accomplish great things!

Nami Takayama felt that the meal she treated was well worth the money.

"You want to ask about the Kyoto competition. I have no objection, but..."

Morikawa Riho next to her looked over speechlessly.

"That competition isn't completely open. Aren't you worried that someone from above might give you trouble?"

"It should be fine."

After she said that, Takayama Nami also felt a little guilty.

The main reason is that I am afraid of the Ishizawa family.

But if I think about it carefully, the Ishizawa family's main business is in Kansai. If I were in Kanto, it shouldn't have much of an impact, right?

At worst, I can go back and explain Sawayama Haruno's situation to the section chief, and tell him what Riho just told me about Sawayama Haruno's future potential.

People who do this kind of news interview projects need to have an extremely keen sense of nose. Otherwise, when Sawayama Haruno becomes completely famous, what will they use to invite him?

"Just don't be afraid."

Seeing that her old classmate seemed determined to do this, Morikawa Riho stopped trying to persuade him and turned to look at Sawayama Haruno.

"Has the matter from the other day been resolved, Mr. Kiriyama?"

"Ok?"

Sawayama Haruno looked at the other person blankly.

It was a long time before he realized that the other party was talking about traveling to Macau.

"It hasn't been solved yet, but I've been working on it these past few days." Zeshan Haruno took a sip of water and said helplessly, "Let's see later."

"Eh--"

Morikawa Riho said with some amusement: "It seems that Shiori is also worried about your situation. I have heard some of the things from her in the past few days."

"Really? Is she worried about me?"

"Even though you act like nothing has happened, you can't just judge a girl by her appearance. She's probably worried about you, right?"

Morikawa Riho shrugged and said casually, "You'd better give more thought to the advice I gave to Mr. Kiriyama last time."

Last suggestion.

It must be the incident when someone persuaded me to date Mine Shiori, Sawayama Haruno thought.

The issue of the Miyazawa twins has not been resolved yet, and facing Mine Shiori, he is really powerless.

There is no way. With more girls around me, it becomes difficult to arrange my time reasonably.

Not to mention that everyone has their own things to do on weekdays. Mine Shiori also has to go to school and work as usual, and she has even more things to do.

In the end, Zeshan Haruno said perfunctorily: "I'll think about it again."

"What are you struggling with?"

Morikawa Riho raised an eyebrow and said seriously, "Didn't you say last time that you were preparing a second book? This is a good opportunity to ask her for help again, or perhaps with editing work. After all, I'm planning a promotion by the end of the year."

"Although I will continue to be responsible for Mr. Kiriyama's works, I may have to ask Shiori to take care of the trivial matters," she added.

"I understand. I'll tell her later." Sawayama Haruno said helplessly.

Riho Morikawa's repeated insistence made it difficult for him to refuse, but what the other party said did make sense.

Not only for personal matters, he also had to ask Mine Shiori to continue helping him with work.

But if this happens, my time will become even more urgent, and I must find a way to coax Miyazawa Maki and Miyazawa Mana as soon as possible.

I might as well find a way to meet Mana tonight, Sawayama Haruno thought.

While the two were still chatting casually, Nami Takayama next to them finally came to her senses.

Her eyes flickered as she looked at Sawayama Haruno, and she asked casually, "Were you talking about Kiriyama-sensei's girlfriend?"

"?"

Morikawa Riho looked over with alertness in an instant.

But Sawayama Haruno was one step ahead of her and clarified: "No, we are classmates and half colleagues."

"I have a girlfriend."

He quickly added.

The calm tone and normal expression soon made Takayama Nami lower her head in disappointment.

She thought that the person that Morikawa Riho had just mentioned was just a flirt. If they were not really girlfriends, then maybe she still had a chance.

There was no way. She had no qualifications or connections in this complex society, and she was not like Riho Morikawa who had a stronger level and just the right amount of luck.

Therefore, after getting to know Sawayama Haruno, Takayama Nami wanted to cling to him at all costs.

She thought to herself, if she had to blame anyone, it should be Morikawa Riho, who told her too much before the other party came, and also because Kiriyama teacher was so handsome, which made her unable to control herself.

In the following time, Morikawa Riho, who realized that Takayama Nami had bad intentions, no longer gave the initiative to the conversation to her, but kept talking to Sawayama Haruno about publishing matters.

It was already afternoon when they finished their meal. After paying the bill, Takayama Nami wanted to invite Sawayama Haruno to sit for a while in the cafe next door, but before the other party could open his mouth to refuse, Morikawa Riho helped to reject her invitation on the grounds that "I have classes in the afternoon."

After seeing her old classmate's defensiveness, Takayama Nami did not continue to pester her. Instead, she smiled and exchanged contact information with Sawayama Haruno before leaving with Morikawa Riho.

The social activities finally came to an end, and Sawayama Haruno felt a little emotional.

After looking at the time, he decided to go home and rest for a while before deciding on his plans for tonight.

8pm, Mizutsuruike Dance Park, Shinjuku District, Tokyo.

Miyazawa Mana, wearing a simple white long dress, sat on a park bench as usual.

Feeling the empty environment around her and the dim light of the street lights, her mood became inexplicably depressed.

"Is it true that I still feel uncomfortable?" she said to herself.

I always feel like there is something uncomfortable somewhere in my body. This is because when I stay here alone, I can't help but recall what happened a few days ago.

She knows that she will think of those things if she is free, but she has no motivation to do other things.

In the end, it became a weird cycle.

Thinking of this, Miyazawa Mana's eyes dimmed a little.

Just as she was about to adjust her breathing and cheer herself up, a familiar confused voice came from behind her.

"What's wrong?"

"Eh?"

Miyazawa Mana turned around in some surprise.

As expected, the man she had been thinking about day and night was what came into her sight.

The other party was looking at her with a worried look, and she didn't know what to say.

".I."

Miyazawa Mana subconsciously stood up and wanted to leave, but was interrupted by the other party.

"Wait, Mana!"

"Let's sit down and talk, or do you want to leave without making things clear like you did in the past?" Sawayama Haruno shouted.

Miyazawa Mana's steps suddenly stopped and she stood there with a troubled look on her face.

The other party's words completely hit the pain point in her heart. It was precisely because similar things had happened in the past that she was so hesitant this time.

but

It's time to sit down and have a good chat with each other.

Several days have passed. No matter how unacceptable it is, it should not be a reason for you to refuse to communicate with the other party.

While thinking this, Miyazawa Mana spoke with some bitterness.

"Haruno, what do you want to say?"

"Sit down first."

Sawayama Haruno sat on the bench in front of him and looked at the other person with a slightly pleading look.

After feeling his serious gaze, Miyazawa Mana struggled internally and finally chose to sit down.

However, there was still a large distance between her and Sawayama Haruno.

But being able to sit down is a good thing, at least it proves that he is not avoiding me like he did in the past few days.

As long as they can communicate, Sawayama Haruno is confident that he can make his point clear.
