Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

"What is it, please tell me, auntie?"

"My husband and I are too busy this year to arrange for the summer comic convention for Eriri. Could Xiaojun help her rent a booth at the convention?"

Bai Ye frowned slightly. What Sayuri Sawamura said was obviously a lie.

He wanted to laugh, but Sayuri Sawamura's still serious expression made him realize that she was not joking.

"Are you trying to test yourself?"

Progress report 28 (4064/10000), 2 updates are owed, this is a normal update.

Thanks to [◣宸卍汐◥] for the spicy strips and [书客96641952916] for the spicy strips.

I would also like to thank the two big guys for their rewards.

It’s a new month, and I’m asking for some recommendation votes and monthly votes. I’ll update more tomorrow!

Chapter 157: Accidentally bumping into a girl? There's a cushion, no worries!

On Sunday, the weather was sunny.

What Sayuri Sawamura said yesterday has been lingering in Bai Ye's mind and can't be shaken off.

Everyone has a scale in their heart. Given Sayuri Sawamura's doting nature on her daughter, she must have had her own ideas when entrusting the matters of the summer comic exhibition to Byakuya instead of Aki Tomoya.

Bai Ye couldn't figure out what Sayuri Sawamura meant.

"No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Sawamura-san might have a crush on me, and your aunt saw through his inner thoughts? Is that why your aunt wants to take this opportunity to test me?"

"Or is it that what Tomoya Aki did did not escape my aunt's eyes, and my aunt was disappointed with him, so she turned her target on me?"

"Given the Sawamura family's abilities, it's not impossible..."

Bai Ye doesn't care about the above things. What he cares about is Sayuri Sawamura's love for his daughter, which is a potential danger point.

He wants to start a harem, and he, along with Shiwa and Kato Megumi, all fall into the category of "freedom of love". If Sayuri Sawamura gets involved as a parent, things will become difficult to control.

"I hope Auntie won't interfere too much. At least I won't ignore girls' feelings like Amami-san does."

Booths for the summer comic convention must be booked in advance, and according to Sayuri Sawamura, it should be soon.

"They didn't even give me the comic convention's contact information. It's too obvious they're testing me."

It doesn’t matter if there is no contact information, Bai Ye has his own way.

He picked up his phone and called Gouda.

Gang Tian's family runs a construction and decoration company. He always brags to Bai Ye that he participated in the decoration of the summer comic exhibition last year and thus got a three-day free ticket.

"Hey, who is it?"

The call was connected, and Bai Ye made his point short by hearing the clacking sound of the keyboard on the other end.

"What's the organizer's phone number for this year's Summer Comic-Con? Let me know if you know. Urgent!"

"understood."

The phone hangs up.

After a while, Gangtian sent a message with the contractor's phone number and address.

At this time, Bai Ye remembered what he had asked him to do before.

【Have you helped me find the ground? 】

[In Tokyo, where every inch of land is valuable, it's not that simple.]

【If you can't find it in Tokyo, you can find it in the surrounding areas. 】

. . . . . .

Following the address, Bai Ye drove his scooter to the registration venue for the Summer Comic Convention.

Although it is just a registration venue, the otaku atmosphere is no less intense than that of a summer comic convention, and the staff in charge of guidance are all cosplayed as various characters.

The small room was covered with posters everywhere, and on the table were novels and comics to relieve boredom. Bai Ye even found "Love Metronome".

"Today is the second day of registration, right? Why are there still so many people?"

This was Bai Ye's first time signing up for a comic convention. Although he didn't understand the process, after observing for a while, he knew what to do.

"If the registration fee wasn't paid on site, there should be an audit. That's right, if anyone could just pay and set up a stall, the scene would be a mess."

Bai Ye found a staff member wearing black clothes and carrying two swords on his back. He asked him for a registration form and a pen, then sat down in a random seat and started filling it out.

"As for the name, use Sawamura-san, since it's her work after all. As for the location, choose the best single-person booth. Money is not a problem. As for the work, that's a bit troublesome..."

The notes state that the more times you participate in the exhibition and the higher the quality of your work, the more likely you are to get a booth in a central location.

Bai Ye could understand this. If any scumbag could get a central booth by paying money, it would be strange if he was not criticized to death by the angry otakus.

But the problem is that Bai Ye doesn't know any of Sawamura Eriri's works, and doesn't even know her pen name. He can't fill in the necessary options and can't submit the application form.

"Take it back and ask Sawamura-san."

"Ouch--!"

A cry of pain came from a girl.

The room was quite crowded, and Bai Ye didn't notice that the girl next to him also stood up. He moved to the right and she moved to the left, and they bumped into each other.

Neon's punishment for perverts is terrifying. In order to avoid misunderstanding, Bai Ye immediately apologized.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

The girl rubbed her forehead which was hurt by the collision. She understood that it was an accident and did not look concerned.

"I'm fine..."

At this moment, Bai Ye noticed the girl's appearance and his eyes suddenly lit up.

She was wearing a green dress that looked like the uniform of a certain junior high school. Her red hair was tied into a pair of buns and pigtails. She was not tall, but her petite figure had a pair of plump breasts that did not match her figure. The fact that she could compete with Shiyu was enough to make Sawamura Eriri grit her teeth.

No wonder it doesn’t hurt, it turns out the “cushion” is too thick.

After secretly praising her in his heart, Bai Ye quickly shifted his gaze away from the girl's chest.

It's human nature to pay attention for a second. If you stare for another second longer, the other party will call the police.

"Go out to sea, fill out the form and come here quickly!"

"coming!"

After nodding to the girl named Chu Hai, Bai Ye turned and left without looking back to salute.

The petite and plump figure really appealed to Bai Ye, but he didn't think anything of it and just admired her.

There are many beautiful girls with good figures in the world. I just met her by chance and I probably won’t see her again.

If there is no fate, can we force it?

The real thing is to cherish the people around you and take good care of Shiyu, Kato Megumi, Sawamura Eriri and Hyodo Michiru.

When we left the registration office, it was already afternoon.

Bai Ye did not rush to Sawamura's house immediately. He had work scheduled for today, which required him to do market research and collect business information.

He consulted the staff and was told that he only needed to submit the application form within two weeks, and would be notified to pay the registration fee after review.

Regarding the "Summer Comic Exhibition", Bai Ye believes that the key lies in the comic works of Eriri Sawamura.

I have known Eriri Sawamura for almost 3 months. I know that she is an artist and has participated in comic conventions. Her drawing skills should be "severely criticized by society", but she has never mentioned her comic works to Bai Ye.

Bai Ye needs time. Although he and Eriri Sawamura are already very good friends, it is not as easy as he imagined to touch the sensitive secrets in her heart.

"Do you want to ask Shiyu for some indirect advice?"

"Well...it can be used as a last resort. Shiyu can help, but she's too smart."

"Let's talk to Sawamura-san tonight."

As he spoke, Bai Ye rode his beloved little motorcycle and started his work for the day.

……

Bai Ye returned home with his takeaway dinner.

As soon as he stepped into the house, Xiao Mi came to his feet, stood up and pulled at Bai Ye's trouser legs, meowing at the plastic bag.

"Do you kiss whoever feeds you? Did you exercise this afternoon?"

I put the unsalted fried fish fillets into Xiao Mi's bowl and added half a portion of cat food. Then the man and the cat began to enjoy their dinner.

A cartoon drama was playing on TV. Bai Ye took out his cell phone and opened the chat box.

[Is Sawamura-kun here? I have something good for you. ]

Progress report 28 (4564/10000), 2 updates are owed, this is a normal update.

Thanks to [英丽丽天外飞仙] for the two spicy strips.

I slept well today, and there will be another update later.

Chapter 158 Eriri's Troubles and Tears

Eriri Sawamura is a little annoyed today.

She had been keeping an eye on the registration period for the Summer Comic Con, but she had forgotten about it because she had to attend a club activity yesterday.

Today she set a memo specifically to mention this to her mother during lunch time.

Jingle Bell--!

After closing the memo, she sighed that she almost forgot about the important matter again, and looked up at Sayuri Sawamura beside her.

"Mom, registration for the Summer Comic Con has started. Remember to get me a booth."

Sayuri Sawamura knew that her daughter would mention the summer comic convention recently, and she also noticed what was on her daughter's mind.

Eriri has mentioned Byakuya more times at home than she has mentioned Aki Tomoya, and the confusion that occasionally appears in her eyes shows that the girl is in distress.

As someone who has been through this, she is very clear about her daughter's mental journey. Aki Tomoya's performance also made her gradually give up her expectations. She turned her attention to Bai Ye while keeping a cautious eye on him.

She didn't care about Bai Ye's family background, and didn't need the hypocritical "equal status". What she cared about was how much effort he was willing to put in for Ying Lili, so they had the conversation last night.

"Have you finished your artwork, Eriri? I see you've been busy with club stuff lately."

Eriri Sawamura clenched her fists, trying to hide her inner worries while putting on an effortful look.

The senior was having a conflict with Ren Ye, and she felt like she was trapped in the middle of a wall. She could only watch the wall gradually approaching, but she was powerless to stop it and was oppressed to the point of suffocation.

If you are in a bad mood, your efficiency will naturally drop.

"I'm painting right now. If I can catch up, just reserve a spot for me, Mom."

Sayuri Sawamura made the excuse she had prepared.

"I'm sorry, Eriri, but the club won't be participating in this year's Summer Comic Con."

"What?!" Sawamura Eriri was stunned, her chopsticks clattering to the table. "Why aren't you attending the Summer Comic Con? How is that possible... No, Mom, are you kidding me again?"

While secretly sighing at her daughter's vigilance, Sayuri Sawamura put on a textbook-like apologetic expression, and there was even a hint of helpless grievance in her eyes, to hide the joy that was about to overflow in her heart.

"It's true. Most of the people in the club suddenly started playing games together. Since it's just a hobby club, I can't control it, Mom. The remaining people who were supposed to participate in the summer comic convention decided to attend individually this time."

"Mom, I'll still pay for it, but applying for a booth at the comic convention and contacting the printer will have to be done by Eriri herself."

She was not afraid of Eriri Sawamura asking questions because everything had been arranged.

"No way! Σ(っ°Д °;)っ"

Eriri Sawamura slumped in the chair, her soul uttering from her mouth, like a golden salted fish that had lost its dreams.

She has always handed over all matters related to comic exhibitions to her mother's club. She only needs to hand in her finished works and wait to collect the money.

"I have a lot of things to do at the club. I'm sorry I can't help Eriri this time."

"I can't. If I contact them, the otaku's secret will be exposed. Mom, save me!"

Sayuri Sawamura shook her head. Once she made up her mind, she would not change it easily.

"It's a simple matter. As long as you're careful and don't reveal your identity, Eriri can still ask her friends for help. Don't worry, Mom will take care of all the favors."

"This is not a matter of personal relationships..." Sawamura Eriri felt like she was about to faint.

She had always hidden her otaku identity from the outside world. How could she know a printer or have any friends who could help her...

No, there are still some!
