Chapter 10
But Nozaki believed it.
Not only did he believe it, he also took out a small notebook to take notes.
Nozaki had a serious look on his face, and his narrow eyes revealed a thirst for knowledge.
"So that's how it is. Then can I ask about your relevant experience?"
Mikoshiba smiled proudly: "Of course, I have been through many battles."
Is this how the term battle-hardened is used?
But Nozaki didn't care and began his questioning.
At first, Mikoshiba could still handle it well, but gradually, as Nozaki's questions increased and became sharper, it was obvious that Mikoshiba could no longer hold on.
He sent a look of help to Saki.
Oh, help, help.
Saki couldn't help but laugh secretly.
No matter how many times I see it, I always think Mikoshiba is so funny.
"O-Oda..."
Finally, Mikoshiba couldn't hold on any longer and called out Saki's name in a trembling voice.
Nozaki stopped taking notes and looked over.
I don't know why, but Saki could inexplicably get the look in his eyes.
So she immediately made an X in front of her, "Don't overthink it! Mikoshiba and I are just classmates."
Nozaki looked at it silently for two seconds, then lowered his head to write in his notebook and replied, "I didn't think much about it."
Mikoshiba asked in confusion, "What, what do you want to think too much about?"
Saki shook her head, "Nothing."
Afterwards, a few people talked about other topics and today's visit ended.
However, to express his gratitude, Nozaki invited them to stay for dinner.
It is really hard to imagine that Nozaki, a 1.9-meter-tall and seemingly rough-looking boy, can cook so well.
After finishing her meal, Saki rubbed her stomach contentedly and said, "Thank you for the treat."
Mikoshiba also had a very satisfied expression.
Nozaki: "Nothing. If you have any comments or materials about comics in the future, please feel free to tell me."
Cartoonists, you’ve given so much!

Ever since Panda gave him advice last time, Goujuanji has been planning to work in this direction.
[Tuna Rice Balls Are the Best]: What are your favorite games? [Peeking Out.jpg]
After sending it out, Goujuan Ji belatedly felt nervous.
He looked down at the screen of his mobile phone, constantly wondering if there was anything inappropriate in his words.
And then he actually discovered something.
Wouldn't it be impolite and too direct to ask directly using "you" without adding the name?
But if he added a name... he wasn't sure what name would be most appropriate.
And this question seems very blunt. Wouldn’t it be better if you added an explanation?
Even exorcising cursed spirits wasn't this stressful.
My heartbeat seemed to quicken as well.
Gou Juanji sat on the sofa, slightly distracted.
His phone vibrated and he immediately came back to his senses to check the message.
[Long Live the Line Puppy]: Eh? A game? Something a little more casual, maybe?
Although she didn't understand what Inumaki Satoru meant by asking this, Saki still gave the answer.
Of course, this answer is not complete.
In fact, she also likes love games.
After receiving the answer, Inumaki Saki was a little confused.
This type of game... can it also be formed into a game partner?
[Long Live the Striped Puppy]: What's wrong? You suddenly ask this question.
Goujuanji pursed his lips nervously, afraid that his purpose would be discovered.
He thought quickly.
[Tuna rice balls are the best]: Because... I've been downloading games recently, so I wanted to ask for your advice.
Saki tilted her head.
However, I still recommended the game I was playing recently to Gojuan Ji.
But because she doesn't like games that are too complicated, the ones currently left in her phone are all very Buddhist ones, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't go online for two or three days.
[Long Live the Line Puppy]: "xx Farm" feels great. It allows you to experience a relatively realistic but relaxing farming life that doesn't require much in-game currency.
[Long Live the Line Puppy]: There is also the game "Escape from xx". Although it is a suspense puzzle, it is a single-player game. There is no countdown bar or anything like that to urge the progress, and you can come back and continue playing at any time after exiting.
[Long Live the Line Puppy]: And the recently released "XX's Daughter" is also really fun! Is it an RPG? I don't quite understand it, but raising a daughter is really fulfilling. And I'm really addicted without realizing it.
Saki recommended three to him at once.
Inujuan Ji wrote down the names of these games and downloaded them when he was ready.
[Tuna rice balls are the best]: Okay, okay, I've got it all down~ [line puppy spinning in circles.gif]
【Long Live the Line Puppy】：Hmm~
Tuna rice balls are the best: [scattering flowers.jpg]
After downloading three games, Goujuanji hesitated which one to start first.
Two of them seemed to be single-player, but I was unsure about the first one. So Goujuanji logged into the first one first.
The good news is that although the first game is relatively single-player, it is not so single-player. The game allows you to add friends and their data is also shared.
The protagonist controlled by the player can also visit a friend's home.
Inujuki breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't wait to send a message to Saki.
[Tuna rice balls are the best]: "xx Farm" I have registered and logged in ~ [line puppy spinning in circles.gif], can we add each other as friends?
[Long Live the Line Puppy]: Sure, sure.
Then Saki sent him her game ID.
Soon, I received a friend request in the game.
Saki's game nickname is "300 kg of Autumn Harvest", while Inumaki's game nickname is somewhat similar to the name of his social software, called "No. 1 Rice Ball Wholesaler".
Wow, that's interesting. He really likes rice balls.
Goumaki Ji also greeted her in the game, Saki replied, and then Goumaki Ji replied again.
Saki discovered it!
Goujuanji is the kind of amazing chat partner. He will never let you be the last one to finish the topic, and he will never let your topic fall to the ground.
As long as he is around, he will always be the one to end the conversation at the end.
She is simply too angelic!

"Oda, Oda."
The Mikoshiba in front turned around stealthily.
Saki: “What?”
Mikoshiba: "You know what? It seems I'll have to have a side effect in a week."
Saki: “Huh?”
She thought about it and seemed to have seen similar content in the class group.
"But why is the physical examination done at this time? It seems to be neither too late nor too late."
Mikoshiba revealed a little worry, "What should I do?"
Saki: "Huh? What's wrong?"
She looked at Mikoshiba, and then it dawned on her, "Oh, you're not good at sports."
Mikoshiba froze and subconsciously wanted to retort stubbornly, but when he saw Saki's expression that said "I see through everything, don't even think about saying anything", he became depressed again.
"What should I do..."
Saki rubbed her chin, "Hmm, what's the situation with your side?"
Mikoshiba hesitated for two or three seconds and gave an answer: "Probably, possibly, perhaps, not very qualified?"
Saki: ...
I really can't tell.
Mikoshiba looked innocent, a little embarrassed, and a little angry. "What are you doing? I, everyone has shortcomings, but mine just happens to be in sports. And my grades are pretty good now. If I work a little harder, I should be able to pass."
Saki: "It's just at the passing level."
And that's even if I tried hard.
Mikoshiba:......
Saki: "It's okay, it's okay. There's still a week left. Just practice a little bit and you'll be fine."
Miko Chai humbly asked, "How do I exercise?"
Saki: "Which item did you fail? If it's running, then spend a week running more. That will increase your endurance and help you during the test."
Mikoshiba suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
Then he turned around and thought about it.
Saki touched her chin and couldn't help but think, wait, it seems like she has no right to look down on Mikoshiba?
Because her physical strength seems to be...
hateful.
Can’t fail!
Saki felt that she had to work hard too.
After school, Saki decided to take a short detour for a run. This way, she wouldn't have to go out again in the evening, and she could shower straight away when she got home.
The season is just right now, not too hot.
After making the decision, Saki set off.
-
The three first-year students had just completed an exercise in exorcism of cursed spirits. Although it was called an exercise, it was actually no different from a formal mission.
Goujuan Ji went into the store to buy throat lozenges, and unexpectedly saw Saki on his way out.
He opened his eyes in surprise and almost thought he was seeing things.
This doesn't seem to be the other person's way home?
And he had never seen the other person here before.
Did they change the route? Or...
Someone patted his shoulder and Goujuan Ji turned around to look.
The panda asked curiously, "Ji, what are you looking at?"
Goujuanji pursed his lips, then sent a message directly to the other party and ran away.
Panda: "Eh? Thorn?"
He took out his cell phone and looked at it.
[Tuna rice balls are the best]: You guys go back first, I will go back to school by myself later.
The panda looked thoughtful.
"Maki, something's wrong."
Maki walked away from it with a speechless look on her face, "Never mind you, I'm going back first."
Panda: "Wait, Maki, aren't you curious?"
Maki: "No, not curious at all."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The panda looked seriously at the direction where Gou Juanji left, and after thinking it over, he decided to follow him.
Saki was running, maintaining a steady pace, but unfortunately her breathing was not as steady as her thoughts.
Saki had already started panting.
Ahhh, it hurts so much, why do I have to run!
Why not just forget it... The thought of giving up flashed through her mind.
If you think about it carefully, it’s actually no big deal if you fail.
Just when Saki was distracted and trying to divert her attention, someone seemed to be following her.
Before Saki could come back to her senses and look over, she heard a familiar voice.
"kelp?"
This voice—
Saki turned her head and saw Inumaki Tsuchiya, who was wearing a school uniform, running beside her at a steady pace, looking at her with a worried look on his face.
