"I knew it. Then tonight...eh?" The proud smile on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face froze, and she looked at her junior with her arms folded in front of her in disbelief.
"How could it be a refusal?"
"What else? Do you think I will agree to it so easily?" Natsume Rin glanced at her, picked up her phone to make sure the lipstick marks on her mouth were wiped clean, and prepared to go find Yukino and the others.
He already has enough troubles now. Although adding another Kasumigaoka Utaha would only add another hatchet, the risk of being exposed would increase greatly.
Besides, he didn't really like this neurotic senior schoolmate, he was just occasionally amazed by her feminine charm.
"That's not right." Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at Natsume Rin and said with certainty, "Junior, you haven't found a girlfriend in such a long time. Is there something wrong with your body?"
"Otherwise, given your situation, your school bag should be filled with love letters. You can't just ignore every one of them."
"...Senior, I just refused to confess, there's no need to curse me." Natsume Rin said helplessly.
"I'm not that stingy." Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her finger, disagreeing with his statement: "But you actually rejected my confession, I really suspect that you have a hidden disease. Is it that I am not pretty?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha stood in front of him again, trying to straighten her chest, wanting to show the temptation that combined the charm of a young girl and a mature woman.
To be honest, Senior Kasumigaoka does have this quality. Although she is a high school student, she is already working in society in private, so it is inevitable that her temperament will be slightly affected.
Coupled with her beautiful face and plump body, the black headband on her head also plays a significant role in making Senior Sister Kasumigaoka's popularity in the academy remain high.
Especially the goddess who is always cold and aloof in front of outsiders, actually took the initiative to confess, and hinted in both explicit and implicit ways that there can be further development after the relationship is confirmed.
Any normal man in the academy would not be able to refuse, and this is the confidence of Kasumigaoka Utaha.
If she sees something she likes, she will take the initiative to get it as soon as she senses that it is in danger of escaping.
"Senior, you are very beautiful." Looking at the smiling Kasumigaoka Utaha in front of her, Natsume Rin took a deep breath: "But I am very serious about refusing. I still want to go back to the club. Can you make way for me?"
Without waiting for her to reply with a surprised look on her face, Natsume Rin hurried past her and headed towards the screening room.
This time, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not stop her. She could understand the first time as shyness, but the second time she was rejected so seriously, she stared at Natsume Rin's back, wondering what went wrong.
"Junior, it seems like you have a lot of secrets." Kasumigaoka Utaha covered her mouth and laughed in a low voice.
As for the option of not liking her, she had already ruled it out.
Do you really think she's a loser like Eriri? As long as she takes the initiative, how can a man resist the temptation?
In the screening room, Shiina Mahiru, who was sitting in the front row, was chatting with Eriri and mentioned Yukino who had just left.
"Was that Xiaoxue's sister just now?"
Mahiru was a little surprised. She remembered the story Natsume Rin once told. In it, there seemed to be only a younger sister named Koyuki, and the existence of the older sister was rarely mentioned.
"Well, that day a few of us went to Yukinoshita's house to take a photo and met her. She seems to be studying at a nearby engineering university. Although she looks very kind, I can always feel a nervous aura from Yukinoshita's sister." Eriri sipped her drink and gossiped with Shiina Mahiru in a low voice.
"Did you know? Natsume-san and Yukinoshita-san are siblings!"
"I've known this for a long time." Shiina Mahiru nodded slightly.
"When we first met, I thought they were a couple's club, but I didn't expect they had this kind of relationship." When it comes to love gossip, Eriri becomes much more interested.
"what."
"It was dusk when I saw them that day. The two of them were sitting in the activity room of the service department. The scene at that time looked like an oil painting. It was really impressive." She enthusiastically described the scene of that day.
The campus after school, the afterglow of the sunset, the empty activity room, the two of them looked at me at the same time...
Shiina Mahiru frowned, could it be that her attack was not obvious enough, or was senior Eriri a little slow in this regard.
Should we increase our efforts?
"One ticket is 200 yen."
"Minister...even the male lead has to pay?"
Natsume Rin's pace was interrupted, and she smiled bitterly at Yukinoshita Yukino who was sitting at the door selling tickets.
But this also proves that Yang No should have left.
"Two hundred per person, no cheating, all income will be counted as funds for the Ministry, do you have any objections?"
Yukino lifted up the strands of hair that had fallen to her shoulders and spoke to him coldly.
"Besides, I haven't even settled accounts with you, the leading actor who ran away from the premiere, and you're actually trying to evade the ticket."
Chapter 111: The Coping Stick
"The Executive Committee..."
"If you forget my identity and continue to lie, your job will be gone after the first round of inspection. If they really need to reassign it, they will not fail to notify me as the chairman." Yukino slammed the table, scaring Natsume Rin.
"Why are you so angry? I just went to eat some egg fried rice."
"that's it?"
"…I also did some aerobics with some senior students."
"anything else."
"Okay, okay." Natsume Rin admitted honestly, "I also went to see the dance club's performance, that's all."
"One thousand..." Yukino looked at him as if he were a scumbag, and the ticket price instantly increased several times.
"You're trying to rob me! Forget it, stop looking at me. One thousand is just one thousand. I'm going in first."
Natsume Rin fooled Yukino with her lifelike performance and only breathed a sigh of relief after entering the screening room. She explained some minor issues that did not affect the overall situation, thus covering up the real trouble.
It’s indeed a good idea.
"Natsume-san, can you give me an autograph?"
"I want me too."
He had just been feeling proud for less than two seconds when someone ran up to him excitedly, causing Natsume Rin to recall the passion he felt when he was a teacher at Enjo.
"Wait, what are you doing?" Natsume Rin was extremely confused. Although he was quite famous, he was not famous enough to give autographs to others.
"We just finished watching a movie, so we couldn't help ourselves." The leading girl stuck out her tongue shyly.
The person following behind her was obviously much bolder, and shouted enthusiastically with a round face: "Natsume-san, do you want to be a star in the future? It seems very suitable."
"Yes, he is more handsome than many current celebrities, and he is still so young, and he is our classmate."
As they talked, they became happier and the narrow corridor at the entrance was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. After Natsume Rin signed her name, she reminded them not to block the way, and they left the screening room laughing and joking.
Just a few minutes later, he entered the scene again.
Did you buy a ticket again?
Natsume Rin couldn't control them, so she found Shiina Mahiru in the front row and sat down next to them. She took out her phone to find out where Haruno was going, and asked casually, "How's the response?"
"The response has been great. I even heard someone crying just now." Eriri looked very happy. Being able to resonate with others through her work is probably the greatest enjoyment for her as an artist.
Although she achieved this achievement as an actor, it did not affect her happiness.
"Crying?" Natsume Rin was a little surprised.
"It's the scene where Eriri-senpai is lying on the hospital bed." Mahiru reminded her. If she saw it for the first time, she might also feel something.
After all, this guy's acting was so realistic that she almost thought that Senior Eriri really had a terminal illness.
"Also, at Shiina-san's funeral, when you were holding the black-and-white photo in silence, Natsume-san, can I interview you? How did you manage to cope with the situation and shed tears?"
Eriri picked up the flyer, rolled it into the shape of a microphone, and handed it to Natsume Rin's mouth, and asked in a serious tone.
"This is a secret." Natsume Rin said embarrassedly, "But the information I can reveal is that Director Yukinoshita threatened me that if I can't cry, she can help me."
At that time, she was already contacting someone to send mustard over. Natsume Rin really didn't want to eat this thing, so she could only reluctantly use her points to exchange for an item.
[Coping Stick: Are you still worried about not being able to perfectly manage your facial expressions? Are you still having a headache because of the tangled red lines? The Coping Stick will help you cope with it easily! ]
Why do the props in this unfortunate pure love system all seem to encourage him to be a scumbag?
The name is just bad, but the effect is really good. You just need to carry it with you and you can perform the most perfect performance anytime and anywhere.
"So it's Yukinoshita-san's credit." Eriri took back the microphone and made a judgment.
"Hey, what you said is completely wrong."
"Keep the noise down, the movie is about to start." Shiina Mahiru, who was squeezed in between them, reminded them to be quiet, and a countdown image gradually appeared on the screen.
The screening room suddenly fell silent. After selling the tickets, Yukino hung up the sign and locked the door. Then, without disturbing everyone else's experience, she came to the front and sat down in her original seat.
While Mahiru beside her was also focusing on the movie, Natsume Rin lowered her head, picked up her phone and started typing slowly.
[Natsume Rin: Sister, where are you going now? ]
[Yonano: Why are you still calling me sister? ]
[Yono: I'm with Hiratsuka now, what were you doing just now? ]
Phew, if it's Mr. Hiratsuka, Natsume Rin will feel relieved.
He was afraid that she could find her old friend in the Student Union and use him as evidence against him for not becoming an executive committee member.
[Natsume Rin: I told you it's the executive committee. I'm watching a movie now. How do you feel about it?]
[Yoto: Not bad. Although the plot feels a bit cliché, your acting skills are really great. No wonder so many people cried.]
What a sin! In his mind, this was just a micro-movie for satire, but who knew that the students who came to watch the show would actually be immersed in it.
The ending and story of a car accident and terminal illness, haven’t you seen enough?
[Natsume Rin: Do you want to come over? ]
When saying this, Natsume Rin was actually still a little nervous. He had barely figured out most of Yono's personality, but the biggest characteristic of her personality was that she tended to do things that were unexpected.
"Who are you chatting with?" Shizuka Hiratsuka was holding a teacup, her eyes revealing fatigue. The reappearance of her former student made her mood even worse.
"Who else could it be?"
After Yukinoshita Haruno replied with a message that she was busy, she gave the teacher a devilish smile, "They are the children I asked Xiaojing to take care of."
It’s been a long time since I played a prank on Xiaojing. This is a rare opportunity, so I’d better not go and watch the so-called youth suspense micro-film again.
"I'm warning you, the Light Music Club no longer exists in this school, and it's impossible for me to perform on stage again." Shizuka Hiratsuka raised her teacup to hide her panic.
When she was a new teacher, she could use the excuse that she wanted to shorten the distance between herself and her students when she accompanied them on stage to perform. But if she were to do so again now, she would definitely be laughed at.
"Hey, why did they disband? Wasn't everything going well?"
Yang No was surprised by the news and tilted her head to look at Hiratsuka Shizuka.
