In the second week of October, which was a long day, with the rainy weather of the previous few weeks swept away, the sun emerged from behind the clouds again, as if to welcome the arrival of the 30th cultural festival of Ruize No.[-]. The campus in the early morning There was a lot of enthusiasm in the sky.

Sudou Hiroto stood at the school gate with a bunch of fish balls in his mouth, staring at the crowd that kept pouring into the school gate with a dumbfounded expression.He is dressed like a punk musician today, and his hairstyle fixed with pomade looks a bit 80s style.The electric guitar behind him was carried by him from home in the morning. The ripped jeans and shiny waist chain decoration made him look a little cynical, which provoked several girls groups passing by him They cast snickering glances at him one after another.

Hiroto frowned at this, and paced back and forth with an expression of displeasure.

Just because I was fascinated by the band for a while when I was in junior high school, Hiroto was betrayed by the class leader when the class was soliciting performances for the cultural festival. temporary band.He took out an old guitar that hadn't been touched for two years from the warehouse, Hiroto picked out the strings and found that it could still make sound, under the coercion and lure of the monitor, he had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky and bite the bullet.

While wandering in place, someone behind Hiroto suddenly stopped him.

"Hey."

The other party's tone was quite indifferent, and he trembled all over.

When Yuuto turned around with a gloomy face, he saw a figure in a blue kimono standing in front of him.

"What, it turned out to be classmate Yu Ye, I almost thought it was my brother, you scared me to death."

Relieved, Hiroto turned to look at the newly dressed Tamano. His slender figure and antique kimono seemed to be able to show his cool temperament.A crimson tengu mask was tied to the side of his head, probably because of this mask, Yu Ye's expression looked particularly frightening.

He crossed his arms and stood in front of him maintaining a very elegant posture in Hiroto's eyes. He looked at him and said, "Sudou, about the fight again..."

"Ah! Sudou-san, do you know how to play musical instruments?"

Before Yu Ye finished his sentence, a sudden female voice interrupted him.

Mahiru leaned out from behind Tamano, she was wearing a white kimono, her shoulder-length hair was neatly hanging over her ears, her meticulously groomed bangs covered her delicate eyebrows, although she was playing the role of a ghost , but compared to Yuye, the girl doesn't seem to be scary at all, but it makes people feel excited.

"Little Yura, you are so cute!"

Hiroto couldn't help admiring, this outrageous move made Mahiru's cheeks flushed when he was about to continue talking just now, and he was at a loss for a while.

"Hey." Tamano stood sideways in front of Hiroto, and pushed him a certain distance away with his hand, "Are you ignoring me?"

Being questioned by Yu Ye, Hiroto focused his attention on the young man in front of him, pouted his lips and said, "But I don't remember what I agreed with Yu Ye."

"you!"

Hiroto put on an innocent expression, then turned to Mahiru and asked, "By the way, Yura, why don't you go on a date with me this weekend, there is a new video game supermarket in the shopping street, there are many Fun stuff."

"But this weekend I'm going to practice with Tamano-kun at the White Wave Club." Mahiru said awkwardly.

"Eh? Is it Kata again?" Hiroto twitched, looking unhappy, "You will become nervous if you keep playing that thing, is it good to play games once in a while, that "Street Killer" knows Well, it's been super popular recently, that video game supermarket has a 60-inch super-large screen experience!"

"But……"

"Go, go, please, I'm really sincere to ask Yura you. Otherwise..." Hiroto glanced at Tamano, who was sullen, "If Tamano-san is worried, I can do it anyway. let you follow me."

Facing a certain idiot who has completely fallen into self-indulgence, Tamano and Mahiru stood in place and almost petrified.I don’t know who said some touching words of teaching in the activity room of Ruize Geliu before, who told them that song cards are not a game, but a belief, and who seems to be carrying old pain and It's hard to say, let the two of them constantly reflect on whether it is their own feelings for Gepai for so many days.However, such a guy, standing in front of them today, said to them without shame, "If you always play Kara Pai, you will become nervous, and you should play games once in a while."

Amid Hiroto's eloquence, Tamano finally became angry.

The wooden clogs on his feet "clicked" on Hiroto's rivet leather boots, and the young man who had been introducing to Mahiru just now how interesting the newly opened video game supermarket was, suddenly groaned, his face turned green in an instant in half.

"It's decided, Sudou, you will come to the White Wave Meeting on weekends."

"what?"

"Please be sure to accept my post, do you understand?"

Hiroto covered his mouth and nodded aggrievedly.I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that the resentment behind Yu Ye suddenly turned into a terrifying creature like a big tengu.He took a deep breath, ignored his aching toes, and stepped back three steps in a row, keeping a certain distance from the "demon".

"Why do I have to listen to Tamano-san, I want to protest, I have my own freedom in life! Are you right, Yura."

Mahiru paused, and replied to Hiroto: "Actually, I like Kata more than video games. It would be great if Sudou-san could come to Shirahakai on weekends."

Hiroto froze for a moment, then nodded blankly: "Well, that's right."

"what?"

"Okay, then it's an appointment, this weekend."

As soon as Hiroto finished speaking, Tamano's expression on the side suddenly became a little stiff.Is this the so-called hero's sad beauty pass? Huh, it seems that not only heroes, but also bears can hardly cross that ditch...

Hiroto pursed his lips, while imagining his first date with Mahiru at Shirakawakai, while wiping the saliva that dripped down his mouth.

"Sudo."

A black shadow stood in front of Hiroto, and Yu Ye's cold and arrogant voice made him tremble.

"Don't think about Mahiru, she is mine."

"what?"

Before Hiroto could react, Tamano held the hand of the girl beside him.

As if a thunderbolt had struck heavily on the top of his head, Hiroto's eyes turned black.

I have to admit that at that moment, even he himself felt that the pair of men and women dressed as monsters in front of him had an enviable fit. The blue and white kimonos blended well together. If it wasn't for the obtrusive tengu mask, he would even There is a feeling that the two of them are already a pair of newlyweds who are about to get married.

Frustration, serious frustration.

Hiroto lowered his head melancholy, not even paying attention to the voice of the other party saying goodbye to him.

The crowd around them quickly returned to their original hustle and bustle, and several girl groups passed by Yuuto, and the little guitarist in punk clothes huddled in the corner. In timid whispers.

"What's the matter, do you admit defeat like this?"

When Hiroto reacted to the sudden sound, he realized that his back was cold.The sound of heavy footsteps approached the boy, and a pair of heavy palms suddenly patted his shoulders.

"If it's a man, go and snatch that woman back."

Under the man's despotic power, the poor little punk boy's heart was full of wind and rain, winter frost and autumn cold.He slowly turned to the man behind him who was hiding a knife in his smile, and poked his fingers nonchalantly.

"elder brother……"

Sudeng Akito stroked his thin chin with one hand, squinted his eyes and looked at the figure that disappeared in the distance, changed his tone, and said faintly: "However, it seems difficult for you to win against that kind of opponent. a little bit."

"Ah?" The expression on the boy's face suddenly became a little indignant, "Didn't brother just say he was going to snatch it back, why are you attacking me here again now!"

Sudou looked at the younger brother in front of him a few times, and said, "This is just the elder's experience, kid. Do you have any dissatisfaction?"

"no no……"

"But you also have something not to lose to that kind of guy, don't you?" Sudou said meaningfully.

Ruize's gymnasium was set up like a stage, with a huge black curtain hanging high, and colorful lighting to enhance the atmosphere of the whole scene.About [-] temporary seats were placed under the seats. Since the official performance had not yet started, less than [-]% of the students were only sporadically seated.

Behind the curtain, a warehouse was temporarily requisitioned as a backstage seat. Today’s theater performance lasted from about 10:15 am to [-]:[-] pm. In total, there are about seven to eight plays from various classes and clubs to be staged.In the middle of each performance, there are temporary bands composed of various classes to add to the fun. Ruize's gymnasium will probably become one of the most eye-catching highlights of the cultural festival.

The stage play of Utabe is scheduled to appear in the third act, and there are still about two hours before I leave my eyes.In order to maintain the order in the backstage, the school stipulates that they can only enter the temporary warehouse for preparations one hour before the performance, so the members of the Utarita Department are currently concentrating in the activity room for the final practice.

Hanano stretched in the silent corridor in a maid outfit.

"What, there's not even half a figure." She looked helplessly at the thick stack of promotional posters in her hand, pouted and said to herself, "I really want to watch Mashima-senpai's period drama , the senior wearing a uniform must be so handsome that people and gods will be angry!"

"Hey, Hanano, don't be lazy there, there are many people in the atrium, go and bring some guests over!"

The male squad leader with four eyes is short and short. Although he is the same type of academic bully as Tsutomu Komano, his personality is much worse than him.Hanano gave the other party a dissatisfied look, and then moved towards the atrium of the building.

Sure enough, a good man still needs to be like Mashima-senpai!Hanano thought of this while walking, and her footsteps involuntarily passed through several floors of buildings, and stopped at the first floor of the old teaching building, which is in front of the activity room of Karutabe.

"Everyone! The members of Hanano Expedition Team are here to report!"

Full of energy, he opened the sliding door of the activity room, and Hanano, who wanted to surprise everyone, suddenly stood there in a daze.

All the people in the event room suddenly turned their heads in her direction, but when they found out it was her, the originally bright light in their eyes dimmed as if they were extinguished.In response, only Nishida, sitting in a pile of props, raised his hand: "Yo, Hanano, it's you."

"what happened?"

Hanano walked into the activity room and looked around, only then did she realize that there was one less person who was supposed to be nervously making the final preparations here.

Taichi Mashima was not in the activity room.

Hanano, aware of the emergency situation, looked at Xiaozao who was frowning, and asked eagerly, "What's going on? Where's Mashima-senpai? Isn't he here?"

Nishida stood up from the pile of props: "That guy Mashima didn't know what the hell he was doing, and he didn't answer the phone, and his phone has been turned off since the morning. Everyone has worked so hard for this cultural festival for so long, and it is so important. When I was playing, I disappeared, really..."

"Mashima is not a person without measure, he knows that this performance is very important to Utabe." It was Komano who interrupted Nishida's slightly complaining tone.

"That's right, Mr. Roubao, don't be arbitrary, the minister is not that kind of person." Xiaozuo also echoed.

"Then what should we do now, if we can no longer contact Mashima later, do we want Ayase to sing a one-man show alone?"

Nishida looked away impatiently, and Hanano followed his gaze, only then noticed the figure of the girl squatting in front of the French window amidst a pile of props.

Chihaya was wearing a lotus-colored kimono, with this big pattern branded on the sleeves, it was an extremely gorgeous style.Just looking at the back of the girl is enough to see the girl's soft and beautiful figure, if she didn't bow her head and draw a circle in self-defeating...

"Does Taiyi not want to act with me?"

"Could it be because I was NG too many times during the rehearsal, so..."

"Ah! What should I do, am I really hated by Taiyi?"

Not looking at Chihaya who was holding her head while showing an expression of despair, Xiaozao interjected: "Qianzao, what are you thinking..."

"Ayase-senpai, you're going too far!"

Interrupting Xiaozao's consoling words, Hanano's angry tone stunned everyone in the ten-square-meter house.

She walked to Chihaya's side in three steps at a time, gritted her teeth and said to her suspicious eyes, "How could Mashima-senpai disappear for that reason? What do you think Mashima-senpai is like?" People, he treats you..."

"Xiao Jin?"

Hanano clenched his fists, his face was blue and purple: "How many people do you think are as lucky as you, have always had Senpai Mashima by your side, even me...I hope to be with him before graduation Leave the best memories of the cultural festival, this kind of opportunity...why do you always know nothing when you have everything?"

"Mashima-senpai, he is so...obviously treating you..." Hanano blushed, and the stagnant tears in her eyes fell to the ground one by one.

From the moment she met Mashima Taiichi at the club recruiting ceremony when she first entered the first grade, Hanano Sumire made up her mind to find a way to make him look at her in the next time.For this reason, she joined Utabe, cut off her exquisite long nails, and plunged into a world she had never touched.I thought I would get bored soon, but as my love for Mashima-senpai became stronger and stronger, I slowly felt the charm of Karuta.

It was precisely because of this that she vaguely realized that it was impossible for her to get Mashima-senpai to pay attention to her, no matter how hard she tried.But at least, she hoped that the man she had admired for a long time could obtain the happiness he expected.

"Mashima-senpai's happiness has always been because of you, Ayase-senpai!"

The words that had been held in her chest for a long time poured out, and Hanano carelessly wiped away the tears seeping from the corners of her eyes.The eye makeup was smeared, the black eyeliner was smudged, and there were a few stains on the maid's outfit.

The activity room was silent, and no one spoke after Hanano's roar-like impulsive words.Even Xiaozao who wanted to comfort him just stood aside, with his outstretched hand hanging in the air.

"Xiao Jin, I..."

"That's enough. Anyway, even if Ayase-senpai doesn't know anything, everyone will still favor you and tolerate you. The fact that Mashima-senpai likes you can only prove how pitiful he is."

After Hanano finished speaking, she swallowed her tears, put on a straight face, turned around and walked towards the door of the activity room.

With a "wow", behind the opened sliding door, Hanano's head bumped into a tall figure.

Watatani Shin unexpectedly appeared there.

He probably came running, panting slightly, the sweat beads on his forehead were finely visible, and he had an anxious expression on his face.

Before he had time to apologize to Hanano who bumped into him, he looked around at the people in the department and said, "Taiyi's father is in the hospital, he can't come anymore!"
