Although he expressed his feelings completely to harmony, Shi Yu didn't seem to be in a hurry. Although during the whole spring break, Shiyu's contact with Kazuya has been much more frequent than in the previous months, but Shiyu rarely expressed his attitude to Kazuya after that, which also made Kazuya, who had repeatedly received calls from Shiyu, a little overwhelmed.

If Shiyu just communicates with him in a very normal tone, Kazuya will also enjoy the process, which is why Kazuya can't help but pick up Shiyu's phone every time he sees it—even if he knows, maybe he is getting darker and darker on this road.

At the moment when he still hasn't reconciled with Eiriri, Kazuya feels that the only reason why he hasn't completely fallen into Shiyu's tenderness is Kato. Just like the phone call he had with her at the time didn't exist, Kato continued his "help" to Kazuya, but Kato came to Kazuya's house more often than before. so frequent that even Ayase complained a little, "If this continues, Ayase won't even be able to keep the qualification to take care of her brother at home".

In fact, Kazuya feels that Kato may be more aware of the structure of his home, especially the structure of the kitchen, than he does. Therefore, when Kato casually sat in his room reading manga or playing games, and Kazuya received a call from Shiyu again, he was embarrassed to say too much to Shiyu, and in the end he could only end hastily.

And the current situation is basically like this.

"I've already discussed with Miss Machida that with Mystery's current strength, it won't end well if we go head-to-head with Fantastic Bunko, so now our strategy has slowed down a lot, and the turmoil caused by my novel has now subsided. My previous suggestion with Machida's editor was that the current "Streets of That City" should continue to be written in the style of the second volume, so that it is still too late, and in addition, I can't give up the style of romantic comedy, maybe I can write two books at the same time? Shi Yu said this to Kazuya on the other end of the phone.

"If you open two books at the same time, will you not be able to hold on, Senior Sister Shiyu? After all, isn't your style a complete codewriter? If you don't have Kamaike's ability, don't do what you can't support! ”

"Strictly speaking, I wouldn't do worse than that person when I have a smooth mind." Shi Yu smiled lightly and said, "Do you remember when I wrote the script for the game one night? Of course, you have a point in saying that, and Machida also advised me to do so, so I'm still reconsidering it. The main problem, of course, is that of the rouge-en-rouge side. ”

“rouge-en-rouge？” It took Kazuya a long time to find the remnants of the name in his mind, "That big commercial fandom society? The one that Iori Hajima is in charge of? ”

"Kazu-kun, you're too far from Ethics Jun in this regard, and the intelligence lag is too much, right? Now that club, Akasaka Zhuyin has come back to take charge of it personally, it's been a long time, don't you know? Shi Yu's voice carried a slight helplessness.

"Uh, I don't have such a clear understanding of the fandom in the first place, and I don't care about the activities of these fandom giants after the blessing-software side stops its activities."

"Then you don't know about rouge-en-rouge's recent publicity, do you?" Shi Yu said with a little headache, "Ethics Jun is about to be mad by this news, and he has called me I don't know how many times in the past two days!" ”

"Uh, wait for me a bit," Kazuya said to Shiyu as he quickly searched the Internet for news about rouge-en-rouge. Soon, he understood what Shi Yu was referring to.

Rouge-en-Rouge's new project was announced, and Kasumi Shiko created a large-scale game script for the first time on her own.

Although it is said that the game script of the previous fan club blessing-software was created by Kasumi-sensei, many fans of Kasumi-sensei have also pointed out that the overall composition of the script and the sentences of some parts have a distinct Kasumi Shiko style, however, Kasumi-sensei herself is silent about this. After that, some people believe that there is no dispute that Ms. Xia Shizi participated in the creation of the script, but it is still unknown how much part of the script she undertook, because at least there are many texts that do not match Ms. Xia's style at all.

However, this time for the new project of rouge-en-rouge, Ms. Kasumi Shiko has publicly admitted that she is about to take over the creation of the entire script, and when the sales of the second volume of Ms. Kasumi's "The Streets of That City" began to pick up, rouge-en-rouge announced the news, which is undoubtedly a bombshell in the industry. It remains to be seen whether the rouge-en-rouge community will use this opportunity to completely get rid of the status of a commercial fandom and register as a production company. ”

He also looked at the news he searched for in a little daze, and he understood the meaning of "Ethics Jun was mad" that Shi Yu was referring to. Presumably, after the start of the new semester, Ryuya, who is preparing to work on his next round of game projects with great ambition, must have been devastated when he discovers that the most important script writer has been quietly poached, right?

"I'm not so sure if Blessing-Software will be able to move next semester," the shadow of Eiri Ri resurfaced in front of him, and Kazuya sighed and said, "But, can you explain?" ”

"Uh," Shiyu said with some embarrassment, "I was in a bad mood at the time, wasn't I?" Thinking that it would be quite uncomfortable to stay at Blessing-Software, Machida editors gave me this opportunity and agreed, so I can't deny it now, right? However, rouge-en-rouge chose to announce this project at this time, probably to warn me, right? Machida editor looks very unhappy that I'm contacting you again. ”

"It's Machida again, I'm going to get rid of that guy sooner or later!" Kazuya smashed his mouth dissatisfied, but thinking of what made Shiyu's mood worse, his emotions became a little complicated. In particular, the current state of himself and Shiyu is in an ambiguous and strange stage.

"Don't blame the editor Machida," Shiyu said helplessly, "Actually, she has realized her mistake a little recently, and she even asked me if she could contact Kirino before, as if she wanted to bring up Kirino's novel publishing project again." ”

"Do you slap yourself in the face? What medicine did that guy take wrong? ”

"I guess it's because the pressure from the editorial department here at Myster Library is starting to come, right? She must also make some corrections now, even if it is a self-slapping correction, as long as it can increase her voice, it is very important. ”

"Is that why you're ready to open a new book? Her ace author opens two books at the same time, which is also good for determining the position of editor, right? Kazuya asked with a little dissatisfaction.

"Of course, you can understand it that way." After a long time, Shiyu replied.

Kazuya suddenly sensed that something was wrong with his emotions.,On the issue of Shiyu and Machida.,As a friend.,In fact, he shouldn't have much right to speak.,At most, there's only one right to suggest.。 However, just now, he seemed to naturally regard Shiyu's affairs as his own affairs, as if his boyfriend was naturally concerned about his girlfriend.

Obviously, Shi Yu, who had been silent for so long just now, was also aware of this.

"But even if she still wants to do this, it won't be possible in a short time, and Kirino has already gone to the United States." Eventually, Kazuya, who readjusted his emotions, said so.

"Oh, really? That kid is actually very powerful! ”

"yes, pretty good kid." Kazuya nodded and said.

Before going to the United States, Kirino seemed to follow her advice and explained this matter to her eldest brother, as for the direction in which the relationship between Kirino and Kyosuke will develop now, or what Kyosuke will do after Kirino encounters difficulties in the United States, Kazuya doesn't want to think about these things. Although he seems to have robbed a lot of a certain job, he feels that he is not crazy enough to go to the other side of the ocean to rescue a middle school girl.

It also happened to be at the moment when Kazuya and Shiyu fell into silence, and Kato's voice came: "Aragaki-san, Ayase seems to have something to do with you." ”

Relieved, Kazuya said a little nervously to Shiyu: "Uh, Shiyu-senpai, Ayase has something to do with me, so that's all for today, right?" ”

"The one I just heard was Kato-san's voice, right?" Shi Yu frowned and asked, "Is she also at your house today?" ”

"Well, that's right."

"Okay, I see," Shiyu's expression became a little subtle, and she replied, "Kato, I'm really watching you very tightly!" ”

Since the confession, this is the first time that Shi Yu has said something so implied, and Kazuya, who was a little caught off guard by the blow of this sentence, could only "en" at a loss in the end.

"I just don't know, is she doing this for Ying Lili, or is it for herself?" Shi Yu whispered a little.

"Senior Sister Shiyu? Anything else? ”

"No, no." Of course, this vague feeling in Shi Yu's heart, she would never let He Ye know.

"Is there anything Ayase looking for me?" Kazuya, who hung up the phone, asked Kato casually while preparing to go to Ayase.

"Ayase has a part-time job today, so I'm not at home, have you forgotten Aragaki-san?"

"So Ayase called you and asked me to send her something?"

"No, I just wanted to say that what I just said about Ayase looking for you is just an excuse." Kato replied naturally.

"Hey, you guy, how can you be so honest with a liar!" Kazuya was a little angry for a while.

"This is because," Kato said, waving the phone in his hand, "you and Kasumigaoka-sani have been on the phone for too long. ”

"But I told you you didn't have to leave me alone, right?" Looking at Kato like this, Kazuya was silent for a while and said.

"So Ayase isn't at home today! Why don't you leave Aragaki-san's Chinese food to me? However, Kato did not answer Kazuya's question head-on.

"Don't change the subject! Kato! ”

"Well, I remember that there weren't many leftovers when Ayase was cooking yesterday, and I knew what I should prepare on the way here, but I didn't know about Ayase's model job today-"

"-Kato!" Kazuya grabbed Kato's shoulder and said solemnly, "Don't run away from my question!" ”

"I'm not helping you, Aragaki-san." Kato turned his head away, didn't look into Kazuya's eyes, and said, "Since you already think that I don't need to help you, I won't help you either." ”

"So, why?"

"I'm helping Yingli Pear." Kato replied with some indifference, "I'm helping my good friend Eiri, although the problem between you and her doesn't seem to be a problem I can solve." But, until then, to prevent you from cheating when you're still her boyfriend, I feel like I still have that obligation. ”

"Cheating or something, there's no need to say it so ugly, right?" Kazuya's face sank and he said.

"Of course, if Aragaki-san thinks it doesn't make sense to tell me that Kasumigaoka-sani kissed you, I think I can leave now, but will Aragaki-san really deceive himself like this?" Kato's tone was not abnormal, but it was vaguely accompanied by a sense of dissatisfaction.

"So, why didn't Aragaki-san tell Eiri about this?" Kato continued, "You can say that you don't know how to face Eiri. I can't solve this problem, but, don't you think that in the current competition between Eiri Pear and Kasumigaoka Senpai, they are too unfair? Kasumigaoka-senpai can call you every day and discuss all sorts of things, but Eiri Pear can't do anything, and in this contrast, are you sure you won't cheat in the end? ”

"The things that Senior Sister Shiyu told me were all ordinary things of work nature communication." And also a little weakly defended.

"So I left time for Aragaki to talk about work, and the rest of the time, I hope to level the playing field for Eiri Riri, so it's okay, right?"

And looking at such a decisive Kato, Kazuya could only bow his head helplessly in the end.

"Of course, this kind of work of monitoring you is not needed after the start of school, after the start of school, you will meet with Ying Li Li more often, and you will contact Shi Yu Senior Sister less often, so that the two will be at the same starting line - maybe Ying Li Li still has an advantage, but she is your girlfriend in the first place, and she has no reason to give up her advantages." Kato looked at Kazuya, curled a strand of hair from his ear with his hand, and said.

At that time, Kazuya did not raise a single obvious question from him.

However, the following facts proved that his suspicion was correct.

In school, it was not so easy to meet Ying Lili.

All this depends on the result of the class: Class A in the third year: Kazuya Kato Aragaki in the third year Class F: Sawamura, Spencer, Eiri Riri.
