To some extent, light novels and fan clubs have something in common.

For example, they are updated very quickly, and can become popular overnight, but can also sink overnight.

Some authors become famous because of a book, but if they don’t produce a follow-up work in three months, the popularity they have accumulated before will disappear without a trace.

《The first volume of Love Metronome did achieve remarkable results. With the unstinting publicity of the former editor-in-chief of Fuzugawa Bookstore, Kasumigaoka Utaha quickly gained a large number of fans, and the novel also achieved great success.

But after the change of editor-in-chief, it was wishful thinking to get the previous resources. In addition, a lot of time was spent on fighting wits and courage with the current editor-in-chief, which made the already scarce time even more stretched.

“I understand. Editor Machida, don’t worry. I am not fighting alone now.”Kasumigaoka Utaha confidently hung up the phone.

Only Machida Sonoko was left dumbfounded on the other side of the phone.

What are you talking about? You were not fighting alone before.

Can’t you see that I am such a big living person?

……

“Brother, are you telling the truth?”After Kasugano Yui arrived at school, she originally planned to report to her brother that she was safe, but as soon as the call was connected, she heard Kasugano Toru excitedly talking about this matter.

“Well, senior sister is quite reliable, she won’t lie to me about this kind of thing.” Kasugano Toru laughed when he heard that his sister was more excited than him.

Little money, so sweet!

“Great, now my brother doesn’t have to eat those things anymore.” After getting the affirmation, Qiong jumped up happily.

But her reaction made the boy’s nose sour.

It’s really not easy.

No one can imagine how a 12-year-old boy, with a sister two years younger than him, has survived to this day.

In order to keep the house left by his parents, he fought wits and courage with greedy relatives. In order to take care of his malnourished sister, he went to the streets alone to paint for others. In order to get more pay, he lied about his age and went to work in a place like an izakaya where good and bad people mixed. It was just a casual remark, but only the brother and sister themselves understood the bitterness.

“Qiong, remember to take good care of yourself over there. If you are short of money, tell your brother. We won’t have to live in such a tight situation anymore.” Kasugano Toru hurriedly told his sister a few words and quickly hung up the phone.

He couldn’t hold back his emotions.

“Here, Kasugano-san. Just when Kasugano Toru wanted to cry, a tissue was suddenly handed to him.

“Ah this……”The boy was shocked.

He had deliberately found a place where no one was around, right? How could he still be discovered?

And judging from the sound, there was no need to guess.

Apart from Kato Megumi, who else could approach him silently and not be noticed?

“I didn’t expect Kasugano-san to have such a fragile side, crying like a child.” Kato Megumi stuffed the tissue into the boy’s arms, then stood up straight and looked away deliberately.

“But, I hope Kasugano-san can choose a better place next time. Making a phone call in front of the ladies’ room can easily make people think of something bad.”

“”Shit!” Hearing Kato Megumi’s words, Kasugano Toru jumped up from the ground.

Really jumped!

As we all know, when a person is on the phone, it is actually difficult for them to pay attention to the surrounding environment.

The media has spoofed it before, when passers-by are on the phone, no matter what is handed to them, they will take it without knowing it.

It’s like an instinct engraved in their DNA.

Therefore, after hearing Kato Megumi’s words, he thought he subconsciously walked to the door of the women’s restroom.

His life has just gotten better. If he is socially dead at this time, then he is finished!

But when he stood up, he realized that he was fooled.

What women’s restroom? He was clearly standing in front of the steps leading to the rooftop.

“Kato-san, teasing a sad person, does it make you feel so accomplished? Seeing the girl smirking, Kasugano Toru said indignantly.

“No, only Kasugano-san can get such special treatment.”Kato Megumi looked particularly cute when she pursed her lips. Kasugano Toru, who was about to complain, suddenly became speechless.

In fact, she also wanted to comfort herself, right?

What a kind girl!

“”Kato, why are you here?” The boy didn’t want to argue anymore so he changed the subject. He was really curious. He was standing in the opposite direction of the classroom and the toilet. How could Kato Megumi come here?

“I came to find you.” The girl’s voice was very light, but every word was very clear, gently knocking on Kasugano Toru’s heart.

But the next sentence made the boy’s original strange thoughts disappear completely:”The teacher said that there will be a class meeting later, and asked the students who are still outside to return to the classroom quickly. I was planning to call Kasugano-san, but it kept saying that the line was busy, so I wondered if Kasugano-san would call from somewhere, so I found this place.”

Kasugano Toru nodded:”Is that so, then hurry back”

“”Yes.” Kato Megumi nodded, put her hands behind her back, and followed Kasugano Toru back to the classroom.

However, the shrewd boy overlooked a problem this time.

The place where he was calling was rarely visited.

After all, students were strictly prohibited from going up to the rooftop of Fengzhizaki, and no one usually passed by the steps leading to the rooftop.

This is why Kasugano Toru often hid here to make calls.���The reason is that it is quiet after all.

But why did Kato Megumi know that he likes to hide here and make phone calls?

……

“Damn it, damn it, damn it!” Sitting in her seat, Eriri was sulking.

It was almost there, so almost there!

When she offered the reward, she could already see the wavering in Kasugano Toru’s eyes. As long as she persuaded him a little more, or raised the reward a little, she could successfully achieve her goal.

But at this critical moment, that annoying fat woman in black stockings actually appeared.

“Why does she always like to snatch things from me?”The blonde girl sighed inwardly and thought of something bad.

“Moreover, she is a high school student, but she is so shameless to say such things. She is really shameless. The girl thought of what Kasumigaoka Utaha said about”money transaction” at that time, and her face turned red again.

“But what should I do now?” Thinking of the approaching deadline, Eriri felt a little desperate.

“It would be nice if…if I hadn’t seen him drawing at that time……”
