Chapter 138 Zhuge Hui

Although the storyline is quite engaging, once you understand that the princess is Eriri, Yuta Kijima will unconsciously immerse himself in the character of Eriri.

It really feels out of place.

The few scattered groups of audience members in the stands were also watching with great interest.

……

till the end.

The blonde princess with twin ponytails stared blankly at the prince who had run away from his marriage.

When the prince and the dashing female knight were together, they looked at each other and held hands.

offstage.

Eriri's aura seemed to have become distorted, and she was emanating a dangerous black aura.

Yuta Kijima's lips twitched as he glanced at his senior, whose phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed. "Senior, your script is really well-written."

As the actors took their final bows, Kasumigaoka Utaha, standing beside her, wore a playful smile on her delicate face, seemingly unconcerned about Kijima Yuta's sarcastic remarks.

"Art originates from life, and I think my junior, who is also a light novel writer, should be able to understand that."

She spoke calmly, but her eyes unconsciously drifted to Eriri on the other side.

Kato Megumi, seemingly enjoying the drama, tilted her head slightly and said calmly, "This plot is different from the plays I've seen before, it feels..."

"She feels a bit like the 'heavenly heroine' type from anime, comics, and games." Her delicate fingers rested on her chin as she finally remembered a scene from a visual novel she had played before.

"How can it be!"

Hearing Kato Megumi's words, Eriri, already agitated, instinctively retorted. Only after speaking did she realize there were other people in the audience...

"..."

The look in Yuta Kijima's eyes as he looked at Eriri was now filled with pity.

"hateful!"

Eriri felt that coming here to watch the play rehearsal today was a complete mistake. She couldn't control her emotions so many times. The only revenge she could think of now was to draw a doujinshi of a fat woman in black stockings.

"Now that the performance is over, I'll head back. I still have a lot of work to finish," Eriri said, her twin tails twitching as she bit her lip.

Her anger was about to explode, but she held back because she was still at school.

Yuta Kijima, who had been worried about Eriri's mental health, relaxed. Letting his senior and Eriri stay together was the biggest mistake. He wondered when the two of them would be able to show some affection for each other.

They seem to have a good relationship, but they just love to tease each other.

"Is Eriri going back already? Aren't we going to check out the other events at the school festival later?" Kato Megumi asked curiously.

Looking at Kato Megumi's calm expression, Kijima Yuta also wondered if her words about the "girl who fell from the sky" were unintentional.

"Well……"

Eriri bit her pink lips, nodded stubbornly, and her little tiger teeth flashed coldly. "I haven't finished the work I'm going to submit for the exhibition yet. I'd better go home and finish my work first."

Whether it was previous work or an unexpected increase in workload today is something only she knows.

After saying that, she looked past Kato Megumi and at Kijima Yuta, saying with displeasure, "Yuta! You can't waste any more time this weekend. You have to come and help out at my house!"

"Okay, anyway, I don't have anything to do after the school festival."

Yuta Kijima nodded. It seemed that Eriri had decided to go to war with Utaha-senpai for good. He clearly remembered that the book he was preparing for Summer Comic was almost finished.

"Hmm?" Kasumigaoka Utaha chimed in with a smile, "Has junior forgotten about helping me proofread the manuscript?"

Why would you agree to something so casually in front of me?

Is that appropriate?

Yuta Kijima suddenly felt a headache coming on. What was going on? But he still said seriously, "Don't worry, senpai, I will definitely read your manuscript during the school festival."

They weren't trying to hide their voices, and Eriri, hearing them, ground her little fangs and muttered, "Damn it..."

Why does this woman always want to compete with her for everything?

However, seeing that Yuta Kijima had already agreed to her weekend promise, she snorted lightly, "Then Yuta, don't forget our weekend promise."

After saying that, she turned and left the hall without looking back, her golden twin ponytails swaying slightly behind her.

Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes and stood up as well. "Then, junior, don't forget our promise, okay?"

"There are still some things I need to tell the drama club. Well then, junior and Hui, enjoy the school festival..."

……

Thus, the morning of the school festival passed smoothly.

Walking along the main road below the teaching building, it was nearly noon, and the stalls on both sides were packed with people.

"Is there anything Megumi would like to experience?" Yuta Kijima asked softly, looking at Megumi Kato beside him.

Eriri angrily went straight home to prepare her revenge plan, while Utaha-senpai had to stay in the auditorium to handle related matters later, leaving only him and Megumi.

"Eh? Me?"

Kato Megumi tilted her head slightly. "I don't think I have any particular favorite activities. I used to just go straight home after the school festival in junior high."

Yuta Kijima was somewhat helpless.

How should two salted fish experience the school festival?

"How about we go to my place? It's lunchtime now, isn't it?" Kijima Yuta had no choice but to suggest the perfect activity for a lazy bum like himself, and head straight home to lie down.

"Going to Yuta's house?" Kato Megumi glanced up at Kijima Yuta and said calmly, "I wonder how Yuta's back injury is?"

"It feels a little itchy, it's probably scabbed over..."

He pretended to be nonchalant and told the truth.

There was absolutely no other thought in my mind.

In this battle of wits between Yuta Kijima and Megumi Kato, both sides tacitly refrained from revealing their true intentions and continued to engage in a standoff.

"Let's stroll around a bit more then. It's a rare occasion for a school festival to be held," Kato Megumi said softly, unconsciously playing with a strand of hair by her ear.

“Ah… that’s true…” Kijima Yuta said subconsciously, feeling a little disappointed.

"Let's go to Yuta's house this afternoon..." Kato Megumi lowered her head, her voice still calm, but now there was a hint of shyness in it.

"Then let's have an afternoon!"

Yuta Kijima took a deep breath, looked up at the lively crowd around him, and suddenly felt that the whole campus had become joyful.

Kato Megumi puffed out her cheeks slightly, her calm face showing a hint of displeasure: "Yuta's unexpectedly mischievousness."

"Cough cough..."

Yuta Kijima coughed and said with a straight face, "What are we going to eat now? I remember there's a ramen shop that's doing really well."

Chapter 139 Rumors

As we all know, the most likely people to attract students' attention are the most popular figures in the school.

Kato Megumi instinctively moved closer to Kijima Yuta, gently tugged at his sleeve, and asked, "Yuta...you really have quite a bit of influence in Toyonosaki..."

"I feel like I'm being watched like an animal in a zoo when I have dinner with you."

Yuta Kijima thought for a moment, "Perhaps it's because Megumi hasn't received so much attention before?"

Actually, if he hadn't already lived two lives, he would also feel uncomfortable being watched by so many eyes.

But once you get used to it, it's not a big deal.

However, he was quite puzzled by the feeling of being stared at like a zoo monkey, because not only students from his school, but also other tourists visiting the school would feel curious.

Student A: "Sigh... isn't that Kijima? Why is he always surrounded by such cute girls? Can't he leave some for us single folks?"

Student B: "Sigh, you'd better not think about it. I just saw a post on the forum from a member of the drama club. He said he took Sawamura and a cute girl to visit Kasumigaoka-senpai on set... Maybe that cute girl is her..."

Student C: "What?! When did this happen? He's already won over both the elegant young lady and the unattainable beauty of our college?! You're not kidding me, are you?!"

Student B: "Sigh... You'll see for yourself if you go to the forum. Someone even posted photos they secretly took in the auditorium..."

Student A: "..."

Student C also hurriedly took out his phone, hoping it was just a wonderful mistake.

Why do you, Kijima, with such good looks, still want to kill off all the beautiful girls in the school?

When he opened the Toyosaki Academy forum, the number of posts was already increasing at an astonishing rate.

At a glance, apart from a few posts promoting booths and school festival announcements, the rest were all posts about Yuta Kijima playing with various beautiful girls on campus today.

Even the adorable, unknown girl beside him was successfully identified through screening by various parties.

It turned out to be a student from our school named Kato Megumi.

But judging from the replies below, it seems that even her classmates don't really remember her.

Suddenly, the discussion about the entire class suffering from amnesia became a hot topic again.

"Sigh..." Student C sighed and put his phone back in his pocket.

There's no point in watching anymore. What's the point of distinguishing between truth and falsehood when faced with such a perfect life?

Classmates A and B exchanged a glance, tacitly deciding not to comfort him; it was much better to simply accept reality.

After finishing their ramen, Yuta Kijima took Megumi Kato outside and said apologetically, "It seems that Megumi is receiving so much attention because of me..."

"I'm so sorry, Hui..." He touched his head sheepishly.

While eating ramen, he had already gleaned the general outline of the situation from the subtle discussions around him.

I finally realized just how much attention I attracted in Toyonosaki.

There's absolutely no privacy left...

Kato Megumi noticed the subtle gazes directed at her from both men and women, but she couldn't fathom the meaning behind them.

She gently shook her head and argued, "It's not Yuta's fault. It's mainly because school life is too boring. Everyone needs something like this to add some fun to their lives..."

Yuta Kijima clearly knew that this was just Megumi's way of comforting him.

"Where should we go next? If we keep standing here, we're really going to become rare, protected animals in the zoo, being watched by everyone." Yuta Kijima asked, noticing the growing number of eyes around him.
