Chapter 30
The boy bowed down and asked solemnly.
"I'll think about it."
The girl answered hesitantly.
The final result seemed unsatisfactory.
After reading it, Hikigaya Hachiman turned and left, silently remembering what he saw today.
Using reality as a reference object, he felt that he might be able to use it as a reference when describing it. This is his current mentality of observing the world.
Time flies, and the end of the second grade is coming in a blink of an eye.
On the last day, before leaving, Hikigaya Hachiman glanced at the people in the classroom.
I don't know who is in the same class with him in the third grade.
So far, none of these classmates have left a deep impression on him, which is a pity.
Oh, a certain chatty female class monitor, I still have some impression of her.
So for the third grade, at least don't let her appear in front of you, because her emotional intelligence when talking is really amazing.
Before the start of the third grade, there is almost a two-week spring break.
This makes him more free than usual.
Gokou Ruri also took this opportunity to ask him about submitting again.
"My goal this time is to lock on the Fuzugawa Library."
She said.
"Why? Didn't you submit a lot of articles before?"
He asked.
"It's better to focus, and if the article is not good, the result will be the same if it is changed to other platforms."
Gokou Ruri argued.
In fact, there is still a difference, but the mainstream library can indeed accommodate everything. Knowing this, he did not argue.
"Have you chosen the subject this time? This year's newcomer award is about to start, right?"
Hikigaya Hachiman asked.
"No hurry, there are several reviews in total, and the focus is also the final review. This time I want to polish this work in my hands."
Gokou Ruri's eyes were firm, and her hands were unconsciously clenched.
"Really? Then I wish you success in advance."
Hikigaya Hachiman said slowly.
"Don't worry, Hikigaya. Even that elementary school graduate Yamada Fairy can debut. I don't believe I'm worse than her!"
A sudden word from the girl beside his ear almost made him lose control.
Miss Yamada is so pathetic. Her reputation as an elementary school graduate has spread.
But this is normal. After all, someone with such high sales but such poor writing skills is indeed unique in the industry. It is inevitable that someone will ridicule her when she is popular.
For this reason, Miss Yamada started a war of words with others under her Twitter, which further reduced her reputation.
"Not really. Although Miss Yamada's writing is poor, her writing ideas are very clear and she has amazing intuition. Even with the help of illustrators of the same level, it is difficult to replicate her path to success."
Although he is a bad friend, he still feels the need to say something fair at this time.
After hearing what he said, Gokura Ruri slowly turned her face to the side, looked at her for a while, and uttered a word.
"Is she an acquaintance of yours?"
"I guess so. We often talk about books together."
"Oh, I see. No wonder you said good things about her."
"Let's talk about books. Do you need my advice on your contribution?"
"Of course."
Before school started, Hikigaya Hachiman made good use of his spare time to complete the content of the fifth volume of "Summer Reappearance".
B-level skill "Diligence can make up for one's shortcomings", which means that hard work can make up for one's lack of talent.
This is the middle school skill set by Miss Yamada for him. Although it is a radio wave system, it also shows that he does have a little potential.
Before, he was a little indifferent and just thought it was a joke. After all, isn't it normal to say that diligence can make up for one's shortcomings?
Most people can improve themselves through hard work. How can it be considered a B-level skill?
But now, he believes in the judgment of Yamada Fairy's "God's Eye" skill.
During this period of time, his progress has indeed been very fast, which is not comparable to ordinary people. This is certified by readers and practitioners respectively.
He became more and more comfortable with writing, and his writing skills became stronger and stronger. Part of it was because he was originally obsessed with this kind of culture, but more of it was his own talent.
Although his character level did not reach the maximum level directly, if the improvement speed is fast enough, maybe he can also reach the ceiling of the industry in the future!
But when he thought that in Miss Yamada's evaluation system, Senjumura Masaru was at least a 5A panel, he was silent again.
"Hey, is there a system? Awaken me! Deep blue points! I don't want to work hard!"
Hikigaya Hachiman closed his eyes and suddenly said loudly.
"Strange Onii-chan, is it possible that you have been infected by Sister Ruri?"
Komachi walked by and watched her brother entertaining himself, not knowing why.
Later, when she visited, she told this matter.
"I didn't infect him! I'm not a zombie or a vampire... This is obviously different from my ability! As a human, there will always be times when I'm in a bad mood, just ignore him."
Goko Ruri said unhappily.
"Oh..."
Komachi's voice dragged out, and the smile on her face became more intense.
48 A spring rain
Third grade, the first day of school.
After breakfast, Hikigaya Hachiman went to school as usual.
The school is halfway up the mountain, and you need to go through the uphill boardwalk. Cherry trees are planted in the green belts on both sides of the road. These few days every year are when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
Pieces of cherry blossom petals fell from the trees at a speed of five centimeters per second, and they covered the ground unknowingly.
If the spring breeze blew at this time, it would become a curtain of spring scenery, which made people want to stop and watch.
He couldn't help but stretch out his right hand, let a few cherry blossoms fall into his hand, and sniffed it curiously. It was a very light fragrance.
He casually flicked the petals, letting them slip through his fingers, and continued to move forward.
Hikigaya Hachiman entered the classroom, found a seat by the window, and waited until everyone was present. He glanced again and was relieved when he found that no one was there.
Finally, he could spend a peaceful year.
After attending the opening ceremony, two boys still greeted him after returning. Because the three of them had been in the same class for three years, it made people feel that they had a certain fate, and then they chatted for a long time.
"Hmm..."
"I have an impression."
"I know."
Hikigaya Hachiman slightly corrected his attitude.
Until the bell rang.
His third year of junior high school life began in a dull atmosphere.
One day two weeks later.
"Hikigaya, we are on duty today, don't be lazy."
Not long after he sat down, a pretty female classmate ran over and reminded him.
"No."
He looked up at the name of the student on duty on the blackboard, and stood up after confirming.
In the afternoon, because the student on duty was also responsible for cleaning the classroom, Hikigaya Hachiman did not go home directly today and stayed.
After waiting for almost all the classmates to leave the classroom, he and the girl on duty started to act.
However, just when the two of them had just started cleaning, the sky outside the window suddenly changed drastically, with lightning and thunder, and a group of dark clouds had covered the sky.
"It's going to rain, Hikigaya classmate, let's hurry up."
The female classmate glanced out the window, then turned her head and urged.
"Well, I know."
He also quickened his hands.
After roughly cleaning, the two hurriedly left the classroom.
However, just as he walked out of the school.
"Da Da Da..."
It finally started to rain, drop by drop, and the sound became more and more urgent.
Obviously, the rain will not be too light.
Hikigaya Hachiman judged this and turned to run to the other side, because there was a convenience store not far away with umbrellas placed at the door.
"Ding Dong."
A few minutes later, Hikigaya Hachiman walked out of the convenience store, holding an umbrella in his hand, and looked calm.
"Huh? There seems to be someone over there?"
Just as he was walking through the mini park, he glanced at it inadvertently and found a person squatting under the slide in the rain.
"Could it be a child running away from home?"
He muttered and walked forward.
After a few seconds, he walked back.
"Ah."
Hikigaya Hachiman sighed.
Although it was troublesome, he would feel bad if he just left it alone.
Although he was not a righteous partner, he still had a certain sense of justice.
"Pah, pah..."
This was the sound of rain hitting the umbrella.
Hikigaya Hachiman came closer and found that the person squatting on the ground had long silver hair. If it weren't for the funny scene in the blue sea, it should be a girl.
He also had some impression of the uniform on the other person, which seemed to be the short skirt of the school uniform of a nearby middle school.
In other words, his previous guess was wrong.
It was not until he walked two meters away from the other person that the other person reacted and slowly raised his head.
It was a cute face with a beauty like a holy angel, but at this moment, this face seemed lifeless, like a mechanical creation, and the blue eyes revealed a kind of sad and desperate emotion.
He had seen this kind of eyes before.
When he fell into the dark side of life and was completely disappointed with the world, the self in the mirror was in this state.
