Chapter 65 Shiori also wants to be the first time
After arriving at the restaurant, Sawayama Haruno casually put his computer bag into the seat, then picked up the menu and ordered from the waiter.
He subconsciously handed the menu to Mine Shiori first, which surprised the other party.
Yes, Shiori Mine is a very traditional island woman.
A small action that seemed insignificant in Sawayama Haruno's previous life might be a very powerful plus point in the eyes of the other party.
After all, for ordinary Japanese people, even when eating with the opposite sex in private, unless they have something to ask others, they generally will not deliberately let others order first.
This only applies to people in normal social relationships. If it is a romantic relationship, it is even more impossible. It is even so strict that "when shopping together, the man absolutely cannot help the woman carry things."
Even if the other party has a lot of stuff, it is impossible to help.
It was precisely because of this small detail that, after ordering the dishes and carefully handing the menu back, Mine Shiori kept secretly glancing at Sawayama Haruno who was sitting opposite her out of the corner of her eye.
Obviously, the two people were sitting face to face, but they had to look at each other with peripheral vision.
Mine Shiori thought that she was being too frank.
No wonder I have such a habit.
She bit her lip, not wanting to think about it any more. So after seeing Zeshan Haruno finish ordering the dishes, she whispered, "Haruno, what were you doing in the library just now? Homework?"
"Ok?"
When asked this question, Sawayama Haruno was stunned for a moment.
After pondering for a moment, he decided that it would be better to confess directly. After all, there seemed to be no need for him to hide anything deliberately.
So Sawayama Haruno thought about it and explained: "Actually, I'm writing novels. It's a little hobby. I also want to see if I can make money."
"Novel? Do you mean light novel?"
Mine Shiori read it once, and her tone changed slightly: "Great! Although I am also a liberal arts student, I am not good at writing this kind of thing."
"That's not really true."
Sawayama Haruno picked up the cup and tactically took a sip of water before saying, "It's not the kind of light novel that is published on the Internet, but now, I'm just trying it out casually."
There is a huge difference between light novels and what he wants to write.
Although when it comes to "Norwegian Wood", its popularity is even higher than its literary achievements, the status of this book is still there, and it cannot be compared with ordinary light novels for entertainment and leisure.
But there's no need to explain this kind of thing. After all, I haven't submitted it yet, Sawayama Haruno thought.
"If you have a chance, can you let me see it?" Mine Shiori suddenly said.
She smiled faintly and said, "Haruno should know that I like reading very much. The club is actually a club that focuses on literary exchanges."
"do you want to see?"
Zeshan Haruno was a little surprised, but still nodded and said, "It's not impossible, but I haven't written much yet."
"Then wait until Haruno writes more, or when he's finished writing, and then show it to me."
"I"
When she said this, Mine Shiori's eyes trembled.
"I want to be the first reader."
She whispered, "Because I like books very much, and I think the first words have special meaning."
First reader?
Sawayama Haruno wondered why the other party seemed to have something else to say.
No, there's something else behind your words, right?
It's not like he didn't know that Mine Shiori had been interested in him in the past.
Although I'm not sure whether the secret love will last until now, but considering what I just said, I feel that the other party has other intentions, right? ?
Or, are people who join literary clubs actually like this?
"Okay, since you haven't read what I wrote yet." After thinking it over, Sawayama Haruno finally gave an answer.
He smiled and said, "Maybe I'll need Shiori's help and advice when the time comes."
“No, I’m not very good at writing.”
Mine Shiori's face flushed slightly.
Maybe it was because I realized belatedly how bold what I just said was.
Now she felt as light as a feather, as if a gust of wind blowing in from outside the store could carry her away.
Because, I didn't expect Haruno to agree so easily.
Mine Shiori secretly rejoiced in her heart, the first reader.
For her, even though she now knows that Haruno and Mana broke up, it is difficult to muster up the courage to approach the reason for the regret. But if she just approaches it slowly in this indirect way, perhaps it will be much better.
He doesn't think back to the "tragedy" nor does he worry too much about Mana or anyone else.
That’s right, now is the best distance.
Just stop thinking about "tragic" things. If that doesn't work, you can use punishment to suppress your thoughts.
Thinking of this, Mine Shiori's mood suddenly improved a little.
For the first time, there was an obvious change on the petite girl's face. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she was no longer as gloomy as before.
However, this look did not last long. The next moment, a word from Sawayama Haruno made her get goosebumps all over her body.
The other party said: "Shiori, I met a "friend" yesterday. She is from Morishima Private School. Actually, you are too, right?"
".Eh?"
Mine Shiori was stunned where she was.
Sawayama Haruno stared at the other person intently.
He thought that now was the best time. After all, according to the custom of "give and take", he had already met all the requests made by Mine Shiori, so it wouldn't be excessive for him to ask a few questions now, right?
What's more, the two of them are chatting very harmoniously now.
It's better than asking when the atmosphere is awkward or unharmonious, right?
That's why he chose to confront the other party directly at this moment.
Sawayama Haruno had already thought it through. He would go straight to the point without beating around the bush and ask for the truth that the other party was hiding as quickly as possible.
By the way, see if you can trigger the system's subsequent tasks.
Even if it doesn't trigger it, it's good to know more about the "true face" of the Golden Week events.
"The 'friend' I met talked to me for a long time and accidentally mentioned that her classmate in the private school at that time was also admitted to the University of Tokyo, and was also a liberal arts student."
Sawayama Haruno stared at Mine Shiori and said slowly and tentatively: "So I asked curiously, what is the name of the classmate who was also admitted to the University of Tokyo, and the last thing I heard was..."
Having said that, he chose not to continue.
The reason was simple. Mine Shiori's face was slightly ashen and looked very ugly.
She opened her mouth as if she wanted to make a sound like "ah ah", but it seemed like something was blocking her throat.
After struggling for less than a few seconds, Mine Shiori slowly closed her mouth, and her face was darker than ever before.
"Yes."
