They all have special skills

He pointed to the photo of himself and Teacher Kasumi Shiko yesterday on his phone.

"Eriri, look, this person is definitely Kasumigaoka-senpai from our school!"

"Hey! Just keep talking, don't come close! And... you're drooling!"

"Ah... sorry, sorry. I just can't help but get excited when I think about going to the same school as my dream novel writer."

"Why are you so excited, idiot..."

"I've dreamed of making a romantic GalGame myself for a long time!

And now, what a coincidence, around me, there are not only people who are good at painting, but also people who are good at writing!

Don’t you think this is all destined?

Eriri, if you've known me since childhood, you should be able to completely understand my feelings, right?!"

Eriri looked at Tomoya Aki who was talking eloquently in front of her, and calmly distanced herself from him.

She nodded slightly.

"Indeed, I can understand you..."

Just as Aki Tomoya showed a look of joy on his face, Eriri poured a basin of cold water on him.

"...You are indeed a hopeless idiot."

"what?"

"Ah, what? You're so delusional. Even if that Kasumi Shiko is really our school's senior, Kasumigaoka, so what? She has her own job, so how can she have the time to play house with you?"

"No, this isn't a game. I've planned this day countless times in my head!"

Aki Tomoya clapped his hands on the table with a serious expression.

"Is this the only reason you came to see me?"

Eriri didn't want to continue arguing with him about this matter.

She felt it was meaningless.

This guy, whom I have known for a long time, sometimes gets inexplicably motivated like this.

Then no matter what he said, it died down on its own after a while and there was no follow-up.

"No! Actually, I want Eriri to help me with something?"

"What's the deal?"

"I'd like to trouble you to help me make an appointment with Kasumigaoka-senpai."

"Aha?"

Eriri had an expression that said, "Are you crazy?"

"I don't know her!"

"But since you're both girls, it should be easier for you to talk to each other."

"That won't do either. Suddenly talking to a stranger and asking you out... any normal person would think I'm an idiot!"

"Eri, please! This is the request of my life!"

"I told you not to! And don't kneel so skillfully!"

After finally getting Aki Tomoya to stand up, Eriri shook her head tiredly.

"If you want to meet her so much, why not just greet her openly?"

“That’s why I asked you to help me because I couldn’t walk here. I was at the autograph session yesterday.

Kasumigaoka-senpai's behavior seems to indicate that she doesn't want to reveal her identity as a light novel writer! "

Ying Lili's expression suddenly became disgusted.

"I'm surprised you noticed this and still wanted to continue. Don't you have any sense of boundaries?"

"There's no other way. This is a necessary step for my ideal!"

"Alright, alright... Well, if that's the case... just don't discuss this in front of other people and don't let her identity be exposed."

Ying Lili felt that she shouldn't have come to the appointment today.

But now that we're here, there seems to be no way out without a solution.

"...!"

Tomoya Aki's expression seemed to be confused, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally understood.

Volume 1: Chapter 28: After the Calm, There Will Always Be a Big One

[The lazy cat: Are we still gathering at the school gate today as usual?]

[Chicken soup here: Sorry, today... you need to find a way to kill some time.]

[Cat who wants to be lazy:? ]

[Chicken soup here: Teacher Ozawa likes me too much. I have to go to her office and reject her and tell her that this taboo emotion is not allowed.]

[The lazy cat: ...Your English grades aren't up to par, are they?]

[Chicken soup here: You're actually secretly asking about me!? (Surprised face.jpg)]

[The lazy cat: Do I need to ask about this kind of thing? Listening to your halting English words these past few nights, it's easy to guess.]

[Chicken soup here: My phone is out of battery, so I won’t chat anymore.]

hum~

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled and replied to the message on her phone.

The finger moved again the next moment.

[The lazy cat: After school, I'll go directly to the cafe in front of the school to wait for you. Don't worry, you can take your time.]

【Chicken soup is here: OK.】

Not long after that, the school bell rang.

Kasumigaoka Utaha slowly packed her schoolbag and walked out of the classroom.

When she went downstairs to the shoe-changing area, she opened her shoe cabinet as usual.

I found a small note inside.

As a woman standing at the top of the pyramid of appearance at Toyonosaki Academy.

Almost every few days, Kasumigaoka Utaha receives confessions in various ways.

There are both men and women.

She's already used to it.

But recently, this kind of thing seemed to have suddenly been affected by something and stopped for a while.

She is also happy to be pure.

I thought this comfortable status quo could continue in the future.

But who knows, it comes again.

Kasumigaoka Utaha took the note in her hand and was about to throw it directly into the trash can beside her.

But the moment she saw the contents of the note, her steps stopped right where they were.

[Teacher Kasumi Shiko, I'm the guy who recognized you at the autograph session yesterday. I'm sorry to leave you a message like this, but I have something important to tell you. Please give me some time...]

Kasumigaoka clicked her tongue in distress.

She remembered the contents of the note, after all, it happened just yesterday afternoon.

But they said looking for me was very important, so what exactly was it?

He also specially invited me to have a private talk in an empty classroom on the fifth floor.

Generally speaking, Kasumigaoka would simply throw away and ignore such unclear notes.

But the situation this time is slightly different.

That boy is his fan, and seems to be a die-hard fan.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have specifically asked for my autograph offline, nor would he have been so excited to talk so much after seeing me.

Besides, she really didn't have any plans for the future. If she was waiting for Qingshuichuan to go home together, why not wait anywhere?

Kasumigaoka made a decision quickly.

She closed the shoe cabinet and walked to the fifth floor.

This is the classroom furthest inside.

Kasumigaoka stopped, hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and knocked on the door.

----

On the rooftop, workers are using tools to dismantle old equipment on the school roof.

Suddenly, the machine in the hands of one of the workers stopped working.

No matter how he pressed the switch, there was no response.

He shouted at the top of his lungs,

"Boss, is this machine broken? It suddenly stopped responding!"

"Bring it to me and see."

The older man came over and tried flipping the switch a few more times, and the machine started working again.

"The machine must be getting old. I'll replace it with a new one after this job is finished. I'll just use this one for now."

"it is good."

Workers on the rooftop resumed work.

And at this moment.

No one noticed.

A power line extends from the rooftop to a club classroom on the fifth floor.

Close to the part of the wall where the curvature is greater and is wrapped with black tape.

Wisps of white smoke began to emerge.

Soon after, sparks began to fly from the scraps of paper close to the ground.

A gust of wind blew it along with more scraps of paper and discarded useless ribbons.

They were blown to the end of the corridor.

There were several desks there, piled with miscellaneous items.

The covering cloth hung vertically down and touched the ground.

----

in the office.

English teacher Yoshiko Ozawa is teaching English grammar on her own.

But Qingshuichuan wore a mask of pain on his face.

The same is true for Eriri Sawamura beside her.

Who am I? What am I doing? What is the teacher talking about?

I don’t understand! I don’t understand at all!

"...That's about it, do you understand?"

Facing the English teacher's expectant questions.

Shimizukawa and Eriri shook their heads in confusion.
