The first class in the afternoon was the ancient literature class, and Naruse, who was still very energetic after riding for more than an hour, began to feel sleepy after less than ten minutes of class.

The chair under the seat was suddenly kicked.

He lifted his heavy eyelids, ignored them, and was kicked again.

He leaned back, feeling like he was weighing a thousand pounds.

"What for?"

"Nothing." Morimi said, "I see that you seem to be about to fall asleep, so I will give you a refreshment." ”

She occupied his seat and didn't get out of the way until class, so Naruse had to sit in her seat.

Glancing back at her, he asked, "Aren't you sleepy?" ”

"It's fine." Morimi said, "Seeing that the first grade is still 'working hard', I don't dare to be sleepy. ”

“……”

Naruse lowered her eyes and looked at her notes, and between the lines, there were a lot of irregular graffiti.

A pen suddenly touched his face.

"What do you see?"

"Nothing."

He smiled and quickly turned around.

After another ten minutes, she kicked his chair again.

"Don't sleep."

“……”

Naruse, who was already lying on the table, suddenly woke up, and his thoughts suddenly jumped back to ten minutes ago.

He turned around and picked up her note, which was filled with several more scribbles from the tip of the pen when it went out of control.

- This woman is clearly sleepy herself, and wants to talk to him to stay awake.

"Give me back the notes." Morimi glared at him, and one of his faces was a little red, probably lying on the table.

"You're asleep too?"

“……”

Putting down the note, Naruse rubbed his face indiscriminately twice, turning around and still leaning against her ...... On his own desk.

"It's damning...... Why are the first-grade and second-grade Guwen teachers all such dry old men, and the class is like hypnosis. ”

"I've never seen a lively ancient literature teacher." Morimi whispered.

"I met him in Tokyo, and it was my junior high school teacher, and I'm still very impressed."

"Female?"

“…… Why do you ask? ”

"Guess whatever."

"Female."

"Sure enough......"

After chatting casually, both of them were a little more energetic.

While he was still awake, Naruse hurriedly picked up the notes on the blackboard.

As a result, without writing a few sentences, the old man on the stage picked up the blackboard eraser and wiped the contents of the blackboard on the right clean.

“……”

In the dreary classroom, a sigh of annoyance suddenly sounded.

The teacher was unmoved, and continued to write on the clean blackboard.

Naruse leaned back, too lazy to remember, and suddenly heard Morimi say, "I've written down everything in front." ”

Taking a deep breath, he sat up straight again, spaced a few lines over his notebook, and then copied the unerased portion of the blackboard on the left.

And this time, the ancient teacher stopped after writing half of the blackboard, picked up the book again, and began the lecture in a constant tone.

"Ise Monogatari is the first Kamonogatari and the earliest kana prose...... He had a great influence on works such as "The Tale of Yamato", "The Tale of Heichu", and "The Tale of Genji...... It is also a source of material for many Kabuki, Joruri, Kana Kusako, and modern times. ”

Naruse was concentrating on two things, listening and taking notes at the same time, and finally copied everything on the blackboard.

As soon as he stopped writing, a notebook landed on his shoulder.

He took it, flipped to the latest page, and copied the missing parts into his notes.

Copying in his hand, he wanted to laugh when he saw the sleepy graffiti in it.

After copying it, Naruse leaned back and returned the note to Morimi.

"Do you need morning notes?"

"I don't need it now, give it to me when I get out of school, I'll go back and copy it."

"I'm going to study in the afternoon."

"Do you want to take it? I don't need every book. ”

"I mean, if you're free, you can drop by and pick me up."

“……”

Naruse glanced back at her, "Is that called by the way?" ”

"It would be better if you were willing to offer to pick me up."

"I'm not available."

"Oh."

She just answered calmly, her expression unchanged.

"Do you still borrow the notes?"

“……”

She glanced at him, too lazy to bother.

The ancient teacher on the podium had a word, and Naruse quickly turned around.

"These two days ......"

She whispered again, "What did you and Hikari do over there?" ”

"I didn't do anything, except to lie down in the hotel, just to watch the sea blow."

"That's it?"

"She's got a fever, what else can she do."

"Then when you take care of her......"

She paused, "Then again, you don't live in the same room, do you?" ”

Naruse didn't speak.

Not speaking is also an answer.

"Wow...... Take advantage of people's danger. ”

She kicked his chair again, and Naruse felt that she was kicking harder this time than the previous times.

"It's that there's only one room left in the hotel."

"And there's just one bed in the room, right?"

"Four beds."

"I'll just say...... Well? ”

"There are two beds, and two futons can be made on tatami mats. I slept on a tatami mat the night before yesterday. ”

"Huh? What is the size of the room for the two of you? ”

Morimi's focus shifted unconsciously.

"Oversized."

Naruse tilted his head slightly, "Otherwise, why do you think there is still a spare room left on that kind of rainy day." ”

"That should be expensive, too."

"Hmm."

"What did you pay?"

"One and a half." Naruse said.

He paid for it when he checked out in the morning, and Hikaru Takikawa gave him half of the accommodation fee on the way.

"Yes."

The girl behind her didn't know what she was thinking, and was silent for a while.

Naruse glanced back.

"What are you doing?" She looked over.

"Let's see if you're asleep."

She rolled her eyes, then stretched.

"I just kind of wanted to lie down."

"Why isn't this lesson over yet?"

"Twenty minutes to go."

"I'll take a look at the next lesson...... English, it's fine. ”

Morimi also glanced at the class schedule on the blackboard, and suddenly thought of something, "Is there a quiz for the next class?" ”

"What's the next lesson...... Oh, English. Well, there is. ”

“……”

It's really a little relaxed to talk, and Naruse is in a trance again.

Morimi kicked off his chair.

"Naruse."

"Huh?"

"If you don't exceed me by 20 points in the next class quiz, come pick me up."

“……”

He glanced back at her, "You're too embarrassed to say it." ”

"Is it too hard?"

"What do you think?"

This kind of classroom quiz has a total of ten questions, even if the difficulty is doubled several times, if they don't get a full score, they are sorry for their status as the first and second in the two grades.

"Let Hikari pick you up, she's idle."

"Did you arrive at school when class was almost there, why didn't you see the light?"

"Pretty much."

Naruse briefly talked about the two of them going to the staff room after coming to school.

"By the way, her car broke down, and after school, I had to send her to pick up the car more than 20 kilometers away."

"What's wrong?"

"It's not a big problem, it's just a small breakdown, but it's more troublesome to repair, so I left the car over there, and people came back first."

Morimi wanted to say something, and reminded him to look ahead.

The old man on the podium began to write on the board again.

The two of them quickly retracted their thoughts and continued to transcribe their notes.

While copying, while memorizing the key words and phrases that may be tested in it, Naruse focused again.

Looking at the classroom again, there is already a piece of lying on its stomach.

After more than ten minutes, the first class in the afternoon finally ended.

"Hmm-"

Stretching his waist, it was time for the end of class, and Naruse was no longer sleepy.

Afternoon sleepiness tends to flare up only a few times in a concentrated period of time, and it's okay to get through it.

Didn't make it through...... Then fall asleep.

"Let's change seats." Naruse looked back and said.

"It's just one lesson." Morimi didn't move, "I've been sitting here for a day." ”

The desk and desk are also full of her things, and it is indeed a bit troublesome to toss back and forth.

"There's one more thing I forgot to ask."

Morimi looked at him, "You went to the Thirteen Lakes, did you get anything?" ”

"Well...... Raiders of the Lost Ark is indeed a classic."

"Huh?"
