She was holding a copy of "Norwegian Wood" in her hand and reading it with great interest.

It has been ten days since the official release of "Norwegian Wood".

With the extensive publicity of Akiba Books, "Norwegian Wood" managed to carve out a path for itself in the smoke of May.

On the first day of sale, the product achieved an exaggerated sales volume.

Afterwards, it was just as everyone in the industry predicted.

In the case that the new author himself did not have a fan base, the sales of "Norwegian Wood" began to decline gradually on the second and third days. Until the fourth day, the daily sales of "Norwegian Wood" fell to the normal level of a new book by a new author.

Then, some anonymous, gloating remarks emerged as if they had been planned in advance.

Then, day five.

The first batch of readers who bought the book and took the time to read the entire book stood up. They spontaneously formed a tap water group and began to communicate, discuss and recommend this high-quality book "Norwegian Wood" on major book recommendation forums and social software.

The reputation of "Norwegian Wood" began to ferment from then on.

On the sixth and seventh days, the tap water gathered into streams. Although it was not strong, it attracted the attention of quite a few passers-by.

Then, the clarion call for counterattack was sounded.

As of now, "Norwegian Wood" seems to be on track to become the best-selling book in May.

"Fireworks" has been around for a long time and is showing signs of becoming a hit.

All in all, everything is moving in a good direction.

"You don't seem to have brought a lunch box today?"

Kiriyama Kazuma, who was sitting backwards on his chair, knocked on Watanabe Yu's desk and started a conversation.

"Yes."

Turning his gaze back, Watanabe Yu nodded.

He chatted with Hamabe Ryoko for a while last night and went to bed a little late.

Plus, he had a good appetite last night and finished all the dinner.

After finishing my morning exercise this morning, I didn’t have time to make a lunch box.

"Come to think of it, you haven't tried the cafeteria's fried noodles and bread yet?"

Kiriyama and Ma suddenly became excited.

The fried noodles and bread in their cafeteria are simply amazing. Apart from the fact that they are often not available, there are basically no flaws.

“…No.”

Watanabe Yu shook his head.

He certainly hadn't tasted it.

"Then let's go and take a look when we go to the cafeteria later, maybe."

Kiriyama and Ma didn't say too much.

In order to avoid the surging crowd, he did not go to the cafeteria immediately.

Judging from the popularity of fried noodle bread, the chances of being able to buy it at noon today are not high.

"uh-huh."

Watanabe Yu nodded in response.

"By the way, second-year high school student Hamabe-senpai is back for class."

Maki Takakura on the side joined in the conversation.

Holding the lunch box, she picked up a piece of crispy sausage with a fork and put it into her mouth.

"Takakura-san, where did you get the news?"

Kiriyama and Ma turned around and asked curiously.

"My friend's place."

Maki Takakura's answer was concise and to the point.

"Brilliant!"

Kiriyama and Ma gave a thumbs up.

He underestimated Maki Takakura.

He originally wanted to use this news to trick Watanabe Yu into giving him a bottle of soda, but now it seems that there is no hope.

"Yuki, is this book really that good? You've been reading it for two days, every time after class, without even sleeping or eating."

Takakura Maki ignored Kiriyama and Ma, turned her head and looked curiously at the simple book cover.

Abstract painting style, a few old trees, a 'person' wearing a blue scarf, and the title of the book.

To be honest, this cover is quite refreshing.

But she, who has never been interested in physical books, really couldn't get the charm of this book.

"nice!"

Yuki Hayakawa gently folded a corner of the page and closed the book.

"What's the story?"

Takakura Maki blinked.

"Love story."

Yuki Hayakawa's answer was brief and to the point.

"But, Maki, did you just say that Hamabe-senpai is back for class?"

There was a hint of concern in her eyes.

Tongshan and Ma talked about this in their small circle.

Having had similar experiences, she can empathize with Hamabe Ryoko more.

Probably the only difference between the two of them is that she depends on her mother, while the latter depends on her grandmother. In comparison, she is much luckier.

"Yes."

Takakura Maki nodded slightly, "The sister who lives next door to me, the top student in Class A of Senior 3, said that when she came to school, she saw Hamabe-senpai."

After the second class today, she took the time to visit the second grade and confirmed the news with her own eyes.

Hamabe Ryoko has indeed returned to class.

"So, does that mean that the problem of Hamabe-senpai's grandmother has been solved?"

"should be."

Takakura Maki nodded and added.

"My sister said that the senior from Hamabe was in good spirits this morning.

"There was even a long-lost smile on his face."

To be honest, she was very surprised when she first heard this description.

As a person who loves gossip, she knows very well what impression Hamabe Ryoko gives people.

It is hard to imagine that Hamabe-senpai, who always has a cold face, would smile.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem incomprehensible.

After all, you will definitely feel relaxed after being relieved of a heavy burden.

"That's good."

Yuki Hayakawa breathed a sigh of relief and took out the lunch box from the table.

"Maki, can you accompany me to heat up the bento~"

Her voice is soft and sticky.

"of course."

Without any hesitation, Takakura Maki put down the lunch box, closed the lid, and stood up.

"Watanabe, my lunch box..."

Yuki Hayakawa turned her head and looked at Yu Watanabe.

He didn't bring a lunch box, so she gave him half.

"Watanabe-san, someone's looking for you!"

Suddenly, the sturdy boy sitting in the back row near the door shouted out stutteringly.

This voice also interrupted Yuki Hayakawa's speech.

It was not because the visitor was aggressive, but because the visitor was really beyond his imagination.

The words fell.

Many students who were already taking a lunch break straightened up and looked back.

Every pair of eyes stared straight at the back door of the classroom.

next second.

After seeing the person coming clearly, waves of low shouts followed, like a fighter jet flying over a rice field.

"Come back and tell me later."

Watanabe Yu gave Hayakawa Yuki a look that said "calm down", then stood up and turned away.

The graceful figure that was familiar to him just stepped into the back door.

Eyes facing each other.

The fair face was reflected in his eyes.

Hamabe Ryoko raised the corner of her mouth slightly and raised the plastic bag in her hand.

Inside the transparent plastic bag were two clearly visible lunch boxes.

"Can you come out for a while?"

She winked and extended an invitation.

Yuki Hayakawa pursed her thin lips.

She began to regret empathizing with Hamabe Ryoko.

The call came! I am writing the next chapter!

Chapter 61 Despicable

If life at Chengnan Private High School is like a calm lake.

Then the occasional emergencies in school are like a stone thrown into a calm lake, which splashes water and creates ripples.

But today's 'stone' is undoubtedly a little too big.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ryoko Hamabe dropped a depth bomb into the lake today.

After a brief silence, the bomb hit the bottom with a muffled explosion, waves surged on the water surface, and undercurrents surged underwater.

People by the lake stopped to watch, and the fish and shrimp under the water felt dizzy.

Yu Watanabe did not refuse Ryoko Hamabe's invitation.

The two came to the school's outer playground and sat down under the shade of a tree in a relatively secluded and cool place.

"How's grandma doing?"

Watanabe Yu naturally started the conversation.

It was the time between lunch and nap, and the playground seemed very empty.
