"Senior looks very happy."
At this moment, in the center of the photo, Bai Ye discovered what Shiyu called the "highlight".
Tomoya Aki was in the team, but he was too far away to see his expression.
[I saw it.]
[Hmmm, Xiaobai-kun, take your time eating~]
Now that Aki Tomoya has arrived, that means...
Bai Ye raised his head and met the eyes of the girl who walked into the barbecue restaurant.
Chapter 575: Is the drama of Tomoya Aki’s demise about to begin?
The person who came was none other than Bodao Chuhai.
Since Tomoya Aki was found in the photo, the Hajima siblings should have also come to Kazama Square. Just now, Hajima asked Bai Ye where it was before he went out to sea.
"Izumi-kun, this way."
Byakuya raised his hand in greeting, causing Hajima to smile and quickly walk towards him.
Today, Boshima went out to sea in high spirits, and the dark circles under his eyes, which the creators jokingly called the "fame circle", have also faded a lot. It seems that he has listened to Bai Ye's advice and had a good rest in the past two days.
"Senior, good afternoon. Um... is it considered noon if it's not even 12 o'clock yet?"
"It doesn't matter if it's not noon yet. Eating from morning till night is Eriri's life goal."
Eriri, who had just put the steaming hot barbecue into her mouth, looked up when she heard the voice and met the smiling face of Tomihashima.
"Good afternoon, Sawamura-senpai."
Although she was a little dissatisfied with Bo Dao Chu Hai for "stealing" her job, she was able to see clearly that he was not the culprit.
"Hmm, have you eaten yet?"
"I ate some at home, and good afternoon, Kato-senpai."
"good afternoon."
A smile appeared on Kato Megumi's face. She put down the barbecue tongs and raised her hand to call the waiter to ask for another set of bowls and chopsticks.
"Izumi-kun, please sit next to Byakuya-kun."
"May I?"
Bo Dao Chu Hai cast a questioning look, she did not forget that the two senior students in front of her were senior Bai Ye's girlfriends.
"Sure, it would be too crowded if you sit with me and Sawamura-kun."
Seeing that Kato Megumi didn't seem jealous, Hamada Chukai certainly didn't mind and sat down next to Bai Ye neatly.
"Senior, excuse me for disturbing you."
"Come and have some barbecue."
Bai Ye picked up a piece of grilled meat and placed it in Hajima Chuhai's bowl under Eriri's close gaze.
"Waiter, another serving of beef!"
Ying Lili stopped looking at the dead person and turned around to eat peacefully.
Bai Ye ignored her little thoughts as there were more attractive things at the moment.
It is to sit next to the island of Bo and go out to sea.
I didn't notice it just now because I was far away, but now that I'm closer and picking up food for her, I can smell a pleasant fragrance coming from her.
"Hmm...it should be the cosmetics I gave her last time."
Bai Ye is a real scent control. The reason he likes Shiyu, Eriri, and Kato Megumi is that he first fell in love with the body fragrance they emit.
Before this, he had approached the island of Bo several times and sniffed it quietly, and his comment on it was simply that it "smelled good."
But today, he suddenly felt that the smell of the sea coming out of Bo Island was somewhat tempting, and he had an urge to hug it and savor it carefully.
But he held back for the moment.
"Ahem, Xiaohui and Yinglili are watching, so don't act recklessly..."
Bodao Chuhai didn't notice his little thoughts. After saying thank you, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating the barbecue happily. He didn't react at all to Bai Ye's action of getting closer than usual.
The same went for Kato Megumi, as if she didn't see anything. She grilled the meat with all her heart and distributed the dipping sauce to Hasima Chuhai.
"Students going out to sea want garlic sauce or barbecue sauce."
"Garlic... Oh no!" Bodao Chuhai quickly glanced at Bai Ye, "Barbecue sauce, and a few drops of sesame oil. Garlic is a bit too strong for lunch."
"Okay." Kato Megumi brought her the dipping sauce.
But Eriri didn't think so. She was so focused on eating that she didn't notice the little movement of Hamima going out to sea.
"Don't worry about it. Eating whatever you want is true happiness! I brought some mint gum, do you want some?"
Bodao Chuhai paused, still shaking his head.
"Thank you, Sawamura-san. But forget it. Dinner would be better."
"You really care about your image... You really are a real person, aren't you?"
Bodao went out to sea with a confused look on his face.
If we talk about appearance, no matter how you look at it, Sawamura-senpai, who has a boyfriend, looks more attractive than me who is alone.
"Is not eating garlic sauce considered a fake? Is this the new otaku meme?"
"Don't listen to Eriri's nonsense."
Bai Ye knew Eriri's personality. She would definitely say something back if her meat was stolen.
Kato Megumi grilled another portion of meat, gave it to Bai Ye first, and then divided it evenly among the other two.
Looking at the barbecue that was mostly in his sight, and then at Kato Megumi's bowl, Hasima Chukai suddenly felt like a bird taking over someone else's nest.
"Kato-senpai, eat too."
"Yeah, I'll eat it later." Kato Megumi put the beef brought by the waiter into the pot, diligently playing the role of a cook. "By the way, does Chu Hai have any plans for the afternoon?"
"As for the plan..." Hasima Izumi pondered for a few seconds, "First, I'll go get Kasumigaoka-senpai's autograph, then visit the exhibition and watch the performances, and after that... whatever."
"Is that so? Then Izumi-kun will go shopping with us?"
"Yeah," Hamadama replied, his mood suddenly darkening.
Before arriving at Kazama Square, her brother and Senior Aki told her that they would have free time in the afternoon. She planned to go shopping at the summer festival with Senior Aki, but ever since the last incident at the mall, she was a little afraid to face Senior Aki.
Then, attending this year's summer festival with Senior Bai Ye became her only choice.
Bodao's answer about going out to sea gave Bai Ye some clues, and curiosity and necessity led him to ask the questions in his mind.
"Where are your brother and Aki-san?"
"Brother has his own show. As for Aki-senpai... he should be waiting in line at the book signing event right now. Ah - no one cares about me!"
After saying that, Bodao Chuhai became deflated, as if he had given up treatment, while he supported his cheek and poked Bai Ye's arm.
"Senior Bai Ye, play with me this afternoon."
Bai Ye did not agree immediately, but quickly glanced at the table opposite him. Seeing that the two women did not show any reluctance, he immediately understood.
The person who was monitoring became Boshima Chuhai!
I don't know if Bodao Chuhai was secretly involved in this. I'll ask him when I have the chance.
"Bai Ye-kun, since this is a rare summer festival, please enjoy it with everyone."
"That's right—" Eriri responded, "Ah—I'm so annoyed just thinking about school starting soon. I have to have a good time today!"
Bai Ye glanced sideways.
Of course I can play with you all, but I'm afraid that you will all disappear one by one and I'll be left alone.
It is impossible to refuse, after all, I have already promised not to get involved in today's affairs.
"Has everyone eaten?"
"Just right!" Ying Lili wiped her mouth, "Leave some room for your stomach. If you eat too much blood, it will go into your stomach and your brain will become stupid.
Bai Ye was shocked.
"Are you going to use your brain?!"
. . . . . .
On the other side, Kazama Square.
After the boring but necessary opening remarks and opening performance, Shiyu saw the signal from editor Machida, twirled her pen, stood up and left the backstage, a glimmer of anticipation in her eyes.
Although she couldn't leave until the end of the book signing, and even had no time to attend Icy tail's performance on stage, she was still part of today's plan.
She opened the curtain.
"If you want to destroy someone, you must first drive him crazy. Amami Tomoya, please don't let me down..."
Chapter 576: Is there always something pitiful about a hateful person?
Shi Yu walked leisurely towards the autograph booth, with a calm and smiling face. The fierceness that she had just shown, like a hunter eyeing his prey, disappeared the moment she left the backstage.
"call--"
Ignoring the sound of breathing, Shiyu felt a different feeling from the last book signing event.
It’s like revisiting an old place, recalling the familiar past while looking forward to unknown changes.
"The one walking towards us now is Kasumi Shiko. Her work, 'Love Metronome,' has been highly anticipated this season and has won..."
The host briefly mentioned Kasumi Shiko's past, and then promoted "Love Metronome" in various ways, which was the key point of the Fuzugawa Bunko.
Shiyu didn't pay attention to how the host was promoting the event. Her attention was always on the endlessly long line, and she felt touched and proud.
This is the achievement of her, Kasumigaoka Utaha, Kasumigaoka Utako.
"I found you..."
Muttering to herself that she was confident, Shiyu sat in the center of the book signing event, put on a formal smile, took the first copy of "Love Metronome", and began an arduous journey that lasted for the entire afternoon.
"Thank you for coming."
"Excuse me, Ms. Kasumi Shiko, what do you think about the bunny girl incident that's been circulating on the forum?"
Shiyu raised her eyebrows, noticed the notebook tucked under the visitor's arm and his hands covered with calluses, and understood his identity.
Although the "Bunny Girl Incident" is just a joke in most people's minds, it is considered a gossip-filled event in the light novel circle, and it is normal that it attracts editors from unknown publishing houses.
Without the slightest hesitation, without the slightest change in expression, without the slightest pause in writing, he gave the answer as he handed the book back.
"My boyfriend, thank you."
"Is that really the teacher's boyfriend? Are the rumors that the teacher is being kept by someone true?"
"Thank you for your support, next one."
She knew very well what to say and what not to say. Some things would only make things worse if misinterpreted by someone with ulterior motives. Announcing her boyfriend to the public was already the limit she could do.
Seeing that Shiyu no longer paid attention, the editor smiled bitterly and made room for the resentful male fan behind him.
"Teacher Kasumi Shiko, I'm your fan. I've liked you for a long time!"
"Thank you for your love and support."
……
"Can Teacher Kasumi Shiko be my girlfriend?!"
"Thank you for your love, I already have a boyfriend."
……
"Teacher Kasumi Shiko, can you draw a heart for me?"
"If you haven't drawn one beforehand."
……
The fanatical fan's remarks were interesting and shocking, but Shiyu was willing to look up and smile after signing autographs, because she could also observe where Aki Tomoya was while doing business.
After signing who knows how many signatures, Shiyu took the opportunity to shake her numb hands. She saw a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye. Her heart tightened and the plan she had discussed with everyone in the past few days immediately emerged in her mind.
