Chapter 178 The girl’s fantasy comes true at this moment

In the second semester of the first grade of junior high school, Hojo Kyousuke only exchanged bodies with Mitsuha Miyamizu three times.

The former happily started farm work every time. The small garden, vegetable garden, and orchard in Xueye's yard were all being set up in an orderly manner. However, winter was coming soon and they had to stop for a while. The pavilion used as a cafe also had to start spring. Then you can start building.

The only problem is that after every exchange, Mitsuha Miyamizu's father will always recognize him immediately, and every time he will talk to him, trying to learn more about him. When he was unable to speak out or talked about topics related to girls, the uncle would blow his beard and stare at him.

Fortunately, Toshiki Miyamizu was still the good mayor who tried his best to destroy Itomori Town, so Hojo Kyosuke was able to escape and find the gentle and considerate Yukino Momokari.

On Miyamizu Mitsuha's side, he expanded the scope of shopping a bit, and even made an appointment to go shopping at a glass shop.

Until the last time, Miss Miko was sitting on the sofa with a large bowl of beef fried rice with more beef than rice. She was chatting in the chat room of the "Chief Support Group" with her mobile phone when she suddenly received a message from "Naoto".

"Sayuga, are you there?"

Mitsuba Miyamizu cut the screen in seconds and answered the other party with "read".

“Eating late night snack (photo)”

After sending the message, Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked at her chat box in a daze. I used the name of the male protagonist in the novel as my ID, and Hojo-kun over there used the name of the female protagonist in his novel. Every time we chat, the girl will have an inexplicable feeling in her heart.

Just like this moment, the fair cheeks were stained with a sickly red glow. But soon, his little face turned pale again.

Kasumigaoka Shiu actually likes Hojo-kun who is logged in to this account. He is much gentler than when seen outside. He also likes to post some photos of life and food, just like now. From the girl's perspective, this is a symbol of a better relationship between the two. Otherwise, why would she casually take pictures of the food she eats for her to see?

He happily clicked on the photo. It was a bowl of beef fried rice. It seemed like he was eating this late-night snack every time he chatted with Hojo-kun this semester. But that's right. Everyone in the chat room who followed Hojo-kun back to his hometown during the holidays was given a lot of top-notch Shirataki beef.

but……

What's up with that glass! ?

Holding down the picture with her index finger and thumb, she zoomed in with the momentum of a swordsman. The girl discovered that there was a black "three" printed on the bottom of the glass with a small amount of Coke remaining.

That's not my color! ?

The girl who was lying on her side on the bed sat up in an instant, and the sling on the left shoulder of her white nightgown slipped quietly without even realizing it.

"What's that glass?" the girl asked impatiently.

"This is beautiful. It was given to me by a friend." - Sayuka

A gift from a friend? Could it be that the person opposite is not Hojo-kun?

The girl sitting cross-legged on the bed, revealing a large area of ​​snow-grey skin, was confused.

But that's not right. Those photos Sayuka posted were clearly from Hojo-kun's home. Kasumigaoka had seen the photo Onitsuka Eikichi posted on Twitter. It was taken when they were having barbecue at Hojo-kun's house.

The caption for Onitsuka's picture is "I took my girlfriend to eat barbecue at my boss's house. The already delicious beef was even more delicious after being picked up by my girlfriend's chopsticks. I wanted to swallow all the chopsticks!"

Although it can be seen that Onitsuka Eikichi in the picture is trying very hard to pretend that the hand holding the chopsticks is not his, but no girl's hands should be so rough!

The background of the barbecue day is the table in the picture posted by Sayuka, but why did Sayuka say that? Could it be that the cup was not made by Hojo-kun himself, but was given to him by someone else, and he then gave it to Eri Kashiwagi?

I can’t figure it out, I can’t understand it.

After struggling for a while, seeing that Hojo-kun over there was already sending a message to ask what was going on, Kasumigaoka Shiu quickly moved the black hair falling in front of his forehead to one side and got down to business.

"The reprint of the second volume of "Metronome of Love" will be released tomorrow. Do you want to buy it together? It seems that I will give you a souvenir."

After sending it, the girl anxiously waited for the reply from the other party. 100,000 copies were published and printed, and another 100,000 copies were reprinted. According to this result, as long as one more volume is released, the light novel writer named Kasumi Shiko can already enter the annual best-selling author ranking.

In this case, he should be qualified to meet Hojo-kun, even if it is just as a netizen.

The girl who had always been proud and strong could not straighten her snow-white neck only when facing the man named Hojo Kyosuke.

"They've all been reprinted. Teacher Xia Shizi's grades are getting better and better."

"Okay, which bookstore will give away souvenirs?" - Sayuka

yeah! ! !

Seeing the message on her phone, the girl clenched her fists and waved her arms vigorously. The white nightgown that was held up high shook like jelly several times.

"It's the Aomori Bookstore in front of Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. The event starts at ten o'clock in the morning!" The girl, whose heart was instantly filled with joy and excitement, quickly sent the name of the bookstore that cooperated with Fusugawa Bookstore.

The publishing house that the girl belongs to is called Immortal River Bookstore. It is engaged in the publishing industry, not the retail industry. This is another neon-specific naming method.

"OK! See you tomorrow then!" - Sayuka

"See you tomorrow!"

Ah, I will meet Hojo-kun tomorrow. He will be shocked when he sees that "Naoto" is a girl, right?

The girl was excitedly rolling around on the bed, thinking about the scene when they meet tomorrow, and her jelly-like softness was ruthlessly ravaged.

On the other side, after sending the last message, Mitsuha Miyamizu looked through the chat history between himself and Naoto, looking forward to meeting tomorrow. Although Kyousuke went on his behalf, what does it matter? He was just a friend of one person, but now he is a friend of two people, successfully helping Kyousuke expand his circle of friends!

She took out a can of Coke from the refrigerator and poured it into her own water glass, and took a sip. There is no such opportunity to drink Coke freely at home. While she is still growing, she should drink less carbonated drinks. Moreover, Yotsuba will want to drink it if she sees it, which is also not good for her development.

But now when my father comes home, just like that guy from Hojo Kyosuke, he often buys a lot of snacks for Yotsuba and himself to eat. He even says the same thing, "What's wrong with kids eating snacks? When they grow up, they don't want to eat them. Take this time to eat more."

Really, how could you not like snacks when you grow up? Things like ice cream are delicious even if you eat them in the middle of the night!

With this thought, Mitsuha Miyamizu took a big mouthful of ice cream. Hojo Kyosuke's body felt so good. No matter how much he ate, he didn't feel stomachache, as if there was a crusher in his stomach.

And cups

Picking up the cup, the original black font can only be seen from the bottom because it is filled with Coke. But it doesn’t matter. Drinking Coke, as the liquid in the cup decreases little by little, watching the “three” that represents yourself reveal little by little, even the bubbles in the Coke seem to be more abundant, and the happiness it brings is more too much.

It's a pity that I can't take it home, the girl thought after seeing the cup for the first time, even the miso soup was served in a glass cup.

Write down the appointment with Naoto on the memo, and ask Kyousuke to help you get a limited number of gifts. Feeling that she had done something big again, the miko lady walked into the bathroom and started what she looked forward to most every time she exchanged.

"Wait a minute, does Hojo-kun think I'm a woman who tells lies?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who was lying in the bathtub with the mask on, suddenly sat up, and the mask fell on the soft body in front of her that was constantly shaking.

But no one would still struggle with this when facing a woman as beautiful as themselves, right?

No, no, Hojo-kun is not that kind of person.

Buzz buzz——

Hojo Kyousuke suddenly woke up and turned off the alarm clock on his cell phone.

Isn't today the weekend? Why did that idiot Sanye set the alarm clock?

"As a loyal fan of "Metronome of Love", how can I not support Teacher Kasumi Shiko when it is reprinted!

Please help me buy a copy! I will help you cultivate the land well in (blank)! Please. "

Looking at the memo left by the miko, Hojo Kyousuke, who was still a little depressed after being woken up by the alarm clock, instantly laughed out loud.

A figure wearing a red and white miko uniform and planting rice in the field suddenly appeared in his mind.

It seems, quite interesting.

I looked at my phone and saw that the battery was full. Speaking of which, it was only the first few times that the miko-san would play with her phone until it ran out of battery. Later, she would charge herself properly before going to sleep.

Putting away his mobile phone, he stood up and opened the curtains. Looking at the gray city outside, Hojo Kyousuke stretched greatly. After entering winter, the sun rose much slower.

After a brief wash, Hojo Kyousuke came to the balcony to start today's kendo practice. Although January and February have not yet entered the coldest months in Tokyo, Tokyo in December is already so hot that you can see the white mist exhaling. As he swung the sword Su Zhen again and again, the white mist coming out of his mouth became thicker and thicker, but even when the practice ended, his T-shirt was not wet with sweat.

Do you want to tie dumbbells to the bamboo knife to practice?

As soon as this semester began, Hojo Kyosuke's improvement in strength and speed slowed down significantly. Of course, it doesn't stop completely. This slowdown is just compared to the previous rocket-like speed of improvement. Compared to other people in the Kendo Club, it is still a speed that they can only dare to dream about in their dreams.

Forget it, I don’t need to fight monsters, why do I have to be so strong?

After carefully wiping the bamboo knife clean, making a quick breakfast, and eating bread and milk for breakfast, Hojo Kyousuke walked out of the door. Of course, I was not carrying the oil-paper umbrella named "Sakura Fall" given by Sakura. It neither rains nor snows in Tokyo in December, so if you go out on the street carrying an umbrella, you will be considered crazy.

I don’t know if there will be a time to hold an umbrella to protect me from the snow in the next January, but Hojo Kyosuke is looking forward to it.

Sakura's vision was as good as ever, and even after covering Hojo Kyousuke with that big and heavy umbrella, three girls could surround him without getting wet from the rain. This was confirmed when the three of them visited Roppongi together in October. Although it was a bit crowded, he didn't mind at all. I have been looking forward to going out with a few girls when it snows. It would be nice to take photos with a black umbrella in the snow. I can also bring Yuzuru to Tokyo with me.

However, in the past few years, the lowest temperature in Tokyo’s winter seems to have been above zero, and the Meteorological Bureau has also said that it will not snow in Tokyo this year. It's a pity that Hojo Kyosuke will not go back to Hokkaido just to enjoy the snow. It is impossible to go to a place without collective heating in winter in this life!

Even though he had an inhuman constitution, he still bought a windbreaker for each of the girls around him as soon as late autumn entered. Hojo Kyousuke, a star who is afraid of the cold, tightened the collar of his windbreaker and walked out of the house.

He wouldn't ride a motorcycle in this kind of weather, but he was not old enough to get a driver's license, so he had no choice but to take the subway.

Get off at Shinjuku-sanchome Station, walk out from Exit E-5, and see Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden in the distance from Hojo Kyosuke. Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden in autumn is as beautiful as spring. Maybe even in the eyes of neon people, compared to the lush green spring scenery, the late autumn scenery with withered chrysanthemums and blood-red maple trees is more in line with their aesthetics.

There is a ginkgo tree in front of Aomori Bookstore with only thirteen leaves stubbornly hanging on it. If you want to ask why you know it so clearly, it is because Hojo Kyosuke has been standing on the opposite side of the road in a daze for a long time.

Although he had known before that Kasumi Shiko's sequel had received great acclaim from the market and was said to be far superior to its predecessor, he did not expect that so many people would line up at the door for a reprint.

I took out my phone and looked at the time. Yes, it was just nine o'clock. Didn't the event start at ten o'clock? Do these people like queuing that much? Someone who feels numb when seeing a long queue would rather stand here in a daze than go to the queue obediently.

I don’t know if there will be scalpers involved in this kind of activity?

With a little luck, Hojo Kyousuke began to scan each person from the back of the team, trying to find people suspected of being scalpers.

Suddenly, a pair of slender legs in black attracted his attention. No, it was a girl with beautiful black legs that caught his attention. wrong! There is no such thing as beautiful legs in black stockings that are slender yet voluptuous! It wasn’t the beautiful legs in black stockings that caught his attention! It’s the cursor on the girl’s head!

[How to develop a passerby heroine·Kasumigaoka Shiu (protagonist)]

Again, System, please open your eyes and see how this looks like a passerby. Not to mention Hojo Kyosuke who was staring at the cursor, the people in front and behind the girl named Kasumigaoka Shiu had kept a distance of one meter, but Hojo Kyosuke could clearly see that their eyes were constantly looking downwards. look.

Or does a passerby heroine mean a heroine who can easily attract the attention of passersby? Thinking randomly, Hojo Kyousuke suddenly thought of something.

"Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu" and "Xia Shizi". "Kashiwagi Eiri", "Eiri Pear", "Eiri".

So is this naming method unique to us passerby heroines?

Moreover, Hojo Kyousuke recognized the beautiful black legs at a glance as the "friend" of "Naoto" he saw on Mitsuha Miyamizu's LINE account last time. In other words, the person in front of Kasumigaoka Shiu is "Naoto", the author of "Metronome of Love" who wanted to meet him but was rejected by him.

Recalling that he had refused the other party's request to meet, but later Mitsuha Miyamizu used his mobile phone to chat happily with her on the Internet, Hojo Kyousuke instantly wanted to turn around and leave. After entering winter, it is normal to feel lost on the road of life. Isn't this season suitable for depression?

But the one she was chatting with was Mitsuha Miyamizu, so how about pretending that neither of them knew the other's identity? Someone is trying to promote the ostrich spirit.

Nothing good at all! I don't know if she can understand it, but the other party must have investigated him. That bastard Kisaki has his photos everywhere, and anyone who cares can definitely collect them. Not to mention that the other party has contacted me through Onizuka and must know him.

Forget it, you don’t have to wait in line at least. As an author, you can definitely use the back door, right?

Hojo Kyosuke quickly found something that made him happy, so Sakura turned into a hopeless optimist because of his and Hojo Miyoko's influence!

As for how Kasumigaoka Shiha connected the new account of the idiot Mitsuha Miyamizu with herself, and why the other author, as an author, invited herself to participate in the sale of her new book, Hojo Kyousuke didn't want to know at all. Isn’t it tiring to have to ask everything, but it’s not a bad thing anyway.

opposite the highway

When the bookstore just opened in the morning, Teacher Kasumigaoka, who had been excited and entangled all night, ran to the bookstore. The bookstore owner was overjoyed and thought that the writer who had never held a book signing had changed his mind. However, unexpectedly, this young lady said that she just made an appointment with her friends to buy books together. Sitting on the chair, she was either staring at her phone in a daze or looking out the door.

At this moment, Kasumigaoka Shiu, who was standing in line on the sidewalk, lowered his head, buried his pointed chin in a black and white scarf, and his red eyes with a layer of mist drifted to the other side of the road from time to time.

What is Hojo-kun doing standing over there?

The girl was filled with doubts. She had been observing her surroundings and had already noticed Hojo Kyosuke when he appeared at the starting point of the road. But the girl's body tensed up and her mouth kept chanting the conversation she had imagined all night long.

But the strange thing is that after Hojo-kun arrived, he didn't come to line up. Instead, he stood on the opposite side of the road and stared at the bare ginkgo tree. Did he not notice me? The girl who had been the center of attention wherever she appeared since kindergarten experienced the feeling of being ignored for the second time. The first time was when she asked to meet Hojo-kun but was rejected.

Could it be that in Hojo-kun's heart, I am not as attractive as that ginkgo tree? The girl was filled with frustration.

However, Hojo-kun, who was standing there in a black trench coat with a sad look on his face, coincided with the scene in the girl's fantasy when the two met. Of course, it was one of countless fantasies.

In a bookstore filled with the aroma of ink, two people across the bookshelf accidentally see each other through the gap between the books; in the library, two people searching for information reach out to pick up the same book at the same time, and their hands quietly touch each other; At Hojo-kun’s book signing, he expressed his gratitude all the time...

and now

A boy with short black hair and a black windbreaker stood across the road, immersed in the wabi-sabi of winter when all things wither. There was no expression on his handsome, knife-like face, as if he was mourning the passing of all things, solemn and heavy.

On this side of the road, a girl wearing an off-white knitted jacket, a black pleated skirt and black stockings was looking around. The moment she saw the boy, her face burst with endless surprise. She was wearing a black and white scarf, slender and fair hair. He straightened his neck, stood on tiptoes, raised his hands and shouted loudly to the man who had become part of the winter scene.

After hearing the girl's cry, the boy fell out of the wabi-sabi mood and turned his head. When he saw the girl, his face felt as if ice and snow had melted. The corners of his mouth were raised, and the tenderness in his black eyes seemed to melt the snow in Hokkaido. Of course, along with it melted the girl's heart.

The above are all the fantasies of a novelist named Kasumi Shiko.

In reality, she turned her head again and looked quietly towards the other side of the road. The girl's burgundy pupils suddenly dilated, and she exclaimed from her small mouth covered in her scarf.

Come, come, Hojo-kun is here!

The girl, whose lower body was only wearing black stockings except a skirt, did not feel cold at all. When she saw Hojo Kyosuke looking at her, she trembled as if in stress, her big eyes full of panic.

Although the girl had not slept all night long, she had imagined countless ways to talk to Hojo-kun when she met him, but when it came time to actually meet him, she was actually a little scared.

It's okay, it's okay, Hojo-kun doesn't know that I am Kasumi Shiko, this is just an ordinary meeting among netizens! Yes, that’s right!

ah! But why did Hojo-kun come directly to me without sending a message! ? He probably doesn’t know that I’m straight!

The girl, who was originally raising her head to observe quietly with her peripheral vision, noticed that Hojo Kyousuke had already stepped onto the sidewalk and walked straight towards her. She quickly lowered her head, took out her mobile phone and pretended to read the message. Her frightened look was like that of a kitten that had just climbed onto the table to steal food and was discovered by its owner and then ran away. It was so cute that it made people want to hold her little head with both hands and take a good look at what was hidden in those red eyes. What an emotion.

coming! Hojo-kun stopped in front of me!

The girl who lowered her head saw a pair of brown Martin shoes. When Hojo-kun was looking at the ginkgo tree, she had carefully observed his outfit and imagined what would happen if she were Hojo-kun's girlfriend. Help him buy clothes.

"Naoto?"

The sound was as clean as the clear cold wind on the ice sheet, which calmed the girl's fiery heart a little.

Raising his head, Kasumigaoka Shiyu had a blank expression on his face:

"Sayuka?"

"Well, it's me."

I’m not telling you, Kasumi Shiko-sensei, you and the miko-san are both really good at playing! Hojo Kyousuke, who was smiling, complained silently in his heart.

"Hojo-san, I didn't expect Sayuka to be you."

There was undisguised surprise in the girl's cold voice, and she raised her white hand to cover her red mouth with her slender index and middle fingers. The look of surprise surprised Hojo Kyousuke, who knew the other party was acting.

Is this because the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie?

She was so far away that she couldn't see her face clearly. In other words, her attention was completely attracted by her beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings. Now face to face, even Hojo Kyousuke, who is surrounded by beautiful girls every day, can't help but be amazed.

Just a simple white hairband changed the girl's long, straight black hair from the ordinary hairstyle that can be seen all over the street to a style that can only be designed by a Tony teacher who costs at least 100,000 yen.

Those burgundy eyes that seemed to be glowing with light were still full of charm even when they made such a surprise expression, as if their hearts were beating all the time. Just looking at them made people feel an endless desire to explore, wanting to know what was happening at this moment. Such alluring eyes are so breathtakingly beautiful at special moments.

The plump oval face, the small nose, the thin but not moist red lips, the high bulge in front of the clothes...

Looking at this woman, Hojo Kyousuke couldn't help but start to wonder whether the anime titled "How to Raise a Passerby Heroine" was a serious anime.

"Hojo-san?"

A flush appeared on Kasumigaoka Shiu's face as she was stared at by that undisguised gaze. Although she was shy in her heart, she was also happy that Hojo-kun finally noticed her charm. Sure enough, how could Hojo-kun not notice me if he could see my true inner self through the novel!

"Ah, I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to be so beautiful, Naoto. I was stunned for a moment."

Hojo Kyousuke grinned and said, he has always been self-aware of being a handsome guy, and he knows that women will not be angry because he appreciates their beauty.

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated." The girl's face became even more shy, and her little hands cupped her cheeks that were already starting to get hot.

"It's true. I never lie."

Humility is about wanting to be praised by others, and someone has a deep understanding of this.

"So shy. Is Hojo-san like this in real life?"

Although she was shy as she spoke, Kasumigaoka Shiyu raised her little face and looked at the boy who finally spoke with her big, bright eyes.

It wasn't the encounter I expected, but the two of them got along extremely harmoniously, a perfect start!

"Well, I've always been like this when facing good things. But why do you know my name, Naoto?" Hojo Kyosuke said.

"Then Hojo-san, why do you know that I am Naoto?" the girl asked.

"How about we go to the cafe over there and talk slowly?" Hojo Kyosuke noticed that the people in the queue were looking at the two of them intentionally or unintentionally.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't notice."

Kasumigaoka Shiu looked around. She didn't care about other people's eyes, she just didn't want them to disturb her relationship with Hojo-kun. However, at this time, you really should be alone in a quiet environment. Being on the side of the road does not fit in with your imagination.

The girl felt unhappy that the harmonious conversation was interrupted. Although she wanted to complain about the people around her who ruined the atmosphere, she still remembered that they were all readers who came to support her. Still maintaining a perfect smile on her face, her delicate and pretty face was full of embarrassment, and she meekly followed Hojo Kyosuke to the cafe across the road.

In fact, if possible, Kasumigaoka Shiu would like the bookstore owner to start today's activities immediately, or simply give away the goods for free. In short, it should end as soon as possible, and she will bear all the losses. Rather than a coffee shop, a bookstore should be the place where I had my first date with Hojo-kun.

In the coffee shop, two people sat facing each other in a booth by the window. Hojo Kyosuke ordered a cappuccino without coffee, and Kasumigaoka Shiwa ordered rose tea.

"Last time, Naoto, didn't you send a photo of your legs? That's why I recognized you." Hojo Kyosuke said.

"this……"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought about many possibilities, but she didn't expect that the person opposite would say such words unabashedly.

"You recognized me just by looking at my legs, Hojo-san?" the girl said in disbelief. Although her legs were her favorite part, she was not arrogant enough to think that she could be recognized so highly.

"Yes, because the lines and fullness are so perfect, I have a deep impression. But don't get me wrong, I'm not a pervert, I just have a better memory and am more sensitive to shapes."

"In other words, you can recognize me even if I'm not wearing stockings?"

Although it was a question, the girl believed the other party's words immediately. Of course, Hojo-kun could not be a pervert. Isn't it natural for a genius like him to be unique?

"Well, please forgive me for being rude." Hojo Kyosuke smiled apologetically, and then stretched out his hand.

No more, there will be an update tomorrow
