[I'll keep those letters you gave me.] ]

Narumi Yu wrote a note neatly and prepared to put it in Shiina Miyo's shoe cabinet at night.

But I feel that there is no envelope, just a note, it is better to thank me directly in person. So I clumped the note together and decided to go home and buy an envelope and write it on stationery.

……

When the school bell rings in the afternoon, the students leave the school in twos and threes, and about half of the students participate in club activities.

After all, Mikagehama High School allows students to join the homecoming department, and the condition is that they only take no more than three days off each month.

Narumi Yu went from the first floor of the club building to the highest floor, and the situation encountered was the same as that of Asahi Kurako at noon.

Whether it is the poster posted on the corridor wall of the club building, or the club introduction posted in front of each club classroom, most of them are full of the vitality of high school students who have nowhere to put them......

He felt deeply that he was out of place in this building.

[Hi Hi ~ This is the Ministry of Literature and Art]

[Mikagehama Literary Journal welcomes submissions~]

[Students who are interested in writing are welcome to join~]

[The Literature and Art Department often organizes members to participate in short story competitions, so be prepared to participate~]

[……]

[If you like to study literary knowledge, and if you like to read and share quietly, please move to the Classics Department~]

Narumi Yu looked at the notice posted at the entrance of the art department, hesitated, and finally did not go in.

It's not hard for him to compete, but more is better than less.

Because he had walked around the building first, he memorized the location of the activity rooms corresponding to all the clubs.

The Faculty of Classics is directly above the Faculty of Literature.

I remember that there was nothing in front of the door except for the number of the [Classics Department].

He stepped up the stairs, and the plank, which was already some age, made a "pop" sound under his feet. More than 20 years ago, the club building was still the school building of Mikagehama, and the building was about the same age as the previous principal.

Knock knock.

Knuckles tapped on the wooden door, and there was no response for half a sound.

Narumi put her ear to the door, and all she could hear was the wind blowing in through the window that she had forgotten to close, hula and hula as she flipped through the books spread out on the table.

He turned the doorknob and found it moving.

No one?

What is the meaning of the last sentence in the notice posted in front of the art department?

Persuade lovers of classics to give up their hobbies?

"I guess there are no club activities every day, or people haven't come yet......

With an optimistic attitude, Narumi Yu returned to the art department and knocked on the door.

“……”

"Ah, the Classics Department......" the low-ponytailed girl who opened the door said, "There are really people who like classical literature!" "Normally, there are no people." ”

"That sentence in the notice of the Ministry of Literature and Art?"

"That's it, it's our minister, and Kohiyama-san's sister was the head of the Classics Department before, so I more or less hope that the Classics Department can be revitalized."

Narumi Yu didn't continue to ask how the follow-up effect was, and looking at the girl's expression, he knew that the current situation of the Classics Department had not improved.

"If you're really interested in the Classics Division, you can go to the Student Council and find President Yayoi, who is now the head of the Classics Division."

"Thank you."

……

Coming out of the club building, Muraichi Konda, who was on the playground, happened to score a goal and was cheering and hugging his teammates unilaterally.

If he also has the energy of Muraichi Konda, he doesn't have to worry about joining any clubs.
