"Why are you looking at me? The selection process was so strict, so of course there will be fewer and fewer people. Besides, there are several new music clubs recruiting people. It's normal for the light music club to gradually decline and disappear."

"That does make sense." Yang Nai pinched her chin, her cunning eyes showing a serious look, and then she suddenly jumped up and grabbed Xiao Jing: "But I don't believe it, it must be you, Xiao Jing!"

Chapter 112: Yukino Wants to Change

"Thank you Natsume-san!"

When the girl who took the photo left him, she had a satisfied smile on her face, while Natsume Rin had already gotten used to dealing with this job.

It seemed that since the movie ended and the faint crying sounds in the set gradually disappeared, people kept coming to him for photos and autographs, as if they all believed that he would choose to become a star in the future.

"No, I have to go first, what about you guys?"

Seeing new audiences coming in one after another, Natsume Rin really didn't have the courage to stay here any longer, so she said to the girl next to her.

The service club is required to have two people in the screening room. If Eriri wasn't there, they definitely wouldn't be able to leave, but now one more person can run out.

"I want to accompany Xiaoxue. If senior Eriri wants to go out and relax, she can leave." Shiina Mahiru is very principled and doesn't want to trouble too many people outside the club.

"I don't think I've even started visiting the school festival yet..." Eriri was a little tempted. There were indeed many favorite venues at Sobu High School's school festival.

"Oh, right, Shiina, if you want to go to the school festival, I can stay here and show the movie. As long as I hang a staff sign in front of me, there should be fewer people asking for autographs." Natsume Rin said.

Shiina Mahiru pinched her chin and almost laughed when she thought about him walking around here with a sign hanging on his head.

"If no one accompanies me to visit the school festival, I'm not really interested."

Shiina Mahiru looked at him gently, and the sweet and ambiguous feeling made Eriri beside her shiver.

Such an obvious hint would surely make this senior realize the complicated emotional relationships within the Service Club.

"You can ask the manager to accompany you, and then I'll have to trouble senior Eriri to help with the collection of fees." Natsume Rin had a smile on her face and her response was very gentle.

Anyway, the school festival lasts for more than one day, so they can be divided into two groups together with the non-staff members to wander around the school without delaying the club's activities.

"Xiaoxue..."

Shiina Mahiru fell into deep thought. She had a vague feeling that Natsume Rin was resisting being with her, but she felt that there was really no reason for it.

"Don't worry about me. As the chairman, I knew about the school festival before it was held. I'm not very interested."

Yukino, who was supposed to be selling tickets outside, appeared beside them and said this lightly.

Noticing Natsume Rin's inquiring gaze, he raised his empty hands and said, "All the tickets have been sold out, including the next few shows. It doesn't matter if you all leave now."

Her words made Mahiru determined, and she reached out and grabbed the corner of Yukino's clothes.

"How can I let you, Xiaoxue, stay here alone? I'm not a heartless person."

"Hey!" Natsume, who was called heartless, spoke in dissatisfaction, causing them to laugh.

Really not wanting to stay here any longer, Natsume Rin could only accept this title, and finally said stubbornly: "Minister, you don't have to share the movie's revenue with me, just use it all as funding."

After he left, Xueno was still looking at the exit in confusion, her fair face thoughtful: "I don't think I have any plans to give him a share."

"what?"

"But Shiina-san, the revenue from this movie is indeed quite a lot, and you will be able to get a lot of it." Yukino looked at her with a smile.

While politely declining, Shiina Mahiru thought through many details.

It seems that in Xiaoxue's heart, Natsume Rin's status should be very high. Even she, who has always believed in repayment for favors, can deduct the income that the male protagonist should have so calmly.

Is it because of the sibling relationship?

"Xue and Natsume are siblings?" She felt that she was able to ask this question, and when the movie started again, she sat in the back row with Yukino and asked in a low voice.

"Did senior tell you? The relationship is correct, probably similar to siblings, but the actual relationship is more like cousins." Yukino responded generously.

Just looking at Shiina's cute face, and thinking of the evil heart that Natsume Rin once told him about, and Yukino who had encouraged him to be a scumbag at that time, he felt a little bit reluctant.

There was absolutely no reason to involve the lovely Shiina-kun in their sibling affairs, and she would feel guilty if she caused a tragedy because of her.

Conflicted, she wanted to remind Shiina Mahiru, but was also worried that the unlucky brother would turn around and take the hatchet.

I shouldn't have gotten involved in this foolish idea in the first place, and I shouldn't have encouraged her. I should have used harsh words to make Natsume Rin give up the idea of ​​having two relationships at the same time.

"Shiina-san, do you like Natsume?" Yukino asked directly.

"Um……"

Sobu High School, the second-year floor.

Having already visited the place once, Natsume Rin unconsciously took on the role of tour guide when she accompanied Eriri to the school festival.

They looked at the simple venues of several clubs in the corridor and turned the corner to go to class.

"Eri... " The shout from not far away suddenly stopped. A high school girl with a chubby face was running in the corridor, making a crisp sound. When she saw the boy next to Eriri, she immediately became shy.

"Hiroko!"

This should be her classmate. Natsume Rin nodded politely, and then he felt a little annoyed when he saw the two of them chatting quietly aside and kept looking at him.

If he remembered correctly, he didn't redeem any points for charm, but he felt like all the girls were looking at him today.

This is not indifferent narcissism, but Natsume Rin's personal experience.

"No wonder you didn't come to participate in class activities, it turns out you went to help!" The girl named Xiangzi touched Eriri's arm enviously.

"I didn't do this voluntarily. I owed a favor to the members of the service club, so I followed along to help."

Eriri still pays great attention to her image in front of outsiders. Although in the eyes of several members who often come to the Service Club activities, the sunny and cheerful Eriri is gradually becoming a pathetic and funny character, it does not affect her image of a young lady in front of other classmates.

"I'm so envious! I wish I could go with you. I heard that you and Natsume-san played a couple in a movie. I must go and watch it this afternoon!"

After stopping Kyoko from chattering about her envy of her own good fortune, Eriri finally heard the reason why she was looking for her.

"Natsume, I have to go back to the classroom and can't accompany you. Bye."

After Eriri found Natsume Rin and finished talking, she stuck out her tongue and pulled Kyouko towards the classroom. On the way, she pulled Kyouko back when she turned around and waved in a lovelorn manner.

So Natsume Rin was once again left unattended. He rubbed his nose and decided to go back to his class first. He had been busy with other things in school these days and didn't even know what the activities of his class were.

Chapter 113: The Connotation of Maid Fried Rice

On the first floor, Shizuka Hiratsuka regretted it when she was goaded by Haruno to attend the school festival, but seeing the teasing expression of that bad student, she had no room to back down.

"Xiao Jing, didn't you just attend the school festival openly? Now you're just accompanying me for a stroll. Is this the reason for your reaction?"

Yukinoshita Haruno lifted the hair in front of her eyes, and a happy smile appeared on her delicate lips.

Of course she knew what Shizuka Hiratsuka was worried about, because she was a new teacher when he first taught her, but now he is a young teacher with several years of experience.

On the surface, there may not seem to be much difference, but if you pay attention to your image in front of students, it will be a big change.

"Don't go too far." Shizuka Hiratsuka had a blank expression on her face. She changed out of the Sobu High School teacher's uniform, and many students still greeted her as she walked in the aisle.

Responding to these greetings, this was also the important reason why she resisted participating in the school festival. After all, this day was a happy festival for students, and the teachers should have tacitly avoided them and let them manage themselves. If Shizuka Hiratsuka participated, she would be like a rude outsider.

"If it's too much to let Xiaojing accompany the outstanding graduates to the school festival, it would hurt my heart too much." Yukinoshita Haruno smiled without any conscience.

"Hiratsuka-sensei!"

The class monitor of Natsume Rin's class was soliciting customers at the door. When she saw Teacher Hiratsuka appear in front of her, she called out to her in surprise and delight.

"Yamada-san, is there anything I can help you with?" Shizuka Hiratsuka responded immediately.

Instead of continuing to be led around the school by Yukinoshita Haruno, it would be better to stay in the classroom and not go out. She felt that she had a good relationship with her classmates, and even if she suddenly joined in, it would not make them feel embarrassed.

"Teacher, are you interested in trying the work of our classmates?" The male class monitor took a portion of fried rice from the classmate behind him and looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka sincerely.

The class activities were also reviewed by Shizuka Hiratsuka, so she naturally knew that they were running a family restaurant. She glanced at the classroom and saw that the business was particularly bad.

"Of course, let us be the guests!" Shizuka Hiratsuka took the initiative and pulled Haruno's arm, pulling her into the classroom and looking at Miura who was wearing an apron.

"Miura-san, please give us two of the restaurant's signature dishes!"

Because business was not good, Miura Yumiko, the chef of the store, gradually began to suspect that it was her cooking skills that kept customers away. When she was feeling annoyed, she heard the sincere call and jumped up from her seat. When she saw that it was Mr. Hiratsuka, the corners of her mouth twitched unnaturally.

Have you really fallen to the point where you have to rely on teachers for support?

Is her cooking skill really that bad?

But after trying it, Ebina and the others gave it a pretty good review.

"Teacher, that's two servings of seafood fried rice."

"No problem, what about you?" Shizuka Hiratsuka asked her.

"I don't care. As long as it's not particularly unpalatable, I can give it a good review against my conscience." Yang Nai said the discouraging words with a smile.

Following her voice, Yumiko Miura looked at the girl sitting next to the teacher a few more times. She had a pretty face, neat short hair, and was wearing a suit suitable for a mature woman. She had a smile on her face that made her feel irritated.

The more important problem is that this face looks like Yukinoshita Yukino, who makes her very unhappy.

"Then I'll trouble you, Miura-san. And you, will it be a problem if you don't tease others with words? Why are you always thinking about scheming against others?"

After asking for help from the innocent Miura classmate, Hiratsuka Shizuka lifted up her windbreaker and complained about Haruno.

"Xiao Jing, you have changed. You were not like this before." Yang Nai looked at her and suddenly sighed.

In the past, Xiao Jing would do anything to cause trouble as long as her blood boiled. But now, I just let her accompany me to look around and be wary of me.

Although she did want to tease the chef who was obviously not convinced.

"If this were outside, I could drive with you and go crazy, but this is in school." Shizuka Hiratsuka approached her and said this expressionlessly.

"Responsible Xiao Jing." Yukinoshita Haruno's voice suddenly rose, "I want to see you break down even more."

Hiratsuka Shizuka gave up and wanted to make this woman normal, but it seemed that it was impossible to do so with her skills. She could only hope that there was a great god who could cure her.

When Chef Miura brought the seafood fried rice with a spoon on it, he couldn't help but look at the familiar woman a few more times. When she found that she was smiling at her, her body shuddered. Only after Mr. Hiratsuka's loud scolding did she reluctantly start to eat.

"Hey, it tastes good."

He gave her a half-smile, which made Miura Yumiko wonder whether the taste was really good or just her polite response.

"Squad leader, why are you here to solicit customers?"

When Natsume Rin returned to the classroom after hanging out outside for half a day, the first thing she saw was the class monitor wandering around in front of the door holding a sign.

"Ah, it's Natsume, come and help me with some ideas."

Smelling the fragrance coming from inside, Natsume Rin, who was a little hungry at noon and was about to eat in the class, was grabbed by the arm by the class monitor and dragged to the door with a worried look on his face.
