Chapter 28
A double act involves a front actor performing the action while a back actor provides the voiceover. It's a performance that requires coordination and a certain level of rapport.
Nozaki raised his head and looked at them, his eyes filled with anticipation. "It's not impossible. I'll wait and see."
He nodded slightly, already holding the pen and paper.
Saki: "What do you think, Inugami-san?"
Goujuanji naturally knew what double acting meant.
He lowered his eyes to think for a moment, his long eyelashes covering his eyes, and then nodded without much hesitation.
Because... this is an activity that can be done with Saki, and it is also an activity that can bring the two of them closer, so naturally, Inumaki Satoru would not have too much hesitation.
Saki: “Great!”
She didn't hide her happiness at all; after all, this activity seemed very interesting.
Seeing this, Gou Juanji also narrowed his eyes.
So the actor team was launched.
This plot tells the story that Valentine's Day is coming, and Mamiko also wants to give chocolate to Suzuki, but she is not brave enough to give her natal chocolate directly, so she gives her giri chocolate.
But by chance, she ran into another female classmate giving Suzuki his birthday chocolate, so Mamiko felt a little jealous.
She was shocked by her jealousy, but she also didn't want to face such emotions. Therefore, when facing Suzuki, she had a series of complex psychological activities and behaved in a tsundere manner.
Nozaki is now a little unsure about this psychological activity and the character's reaction.
He sat cross-legged with his little notebook in hand, looking over here very seriously.
"Please start!"
Chiyo plays the female classmate who gives Benming chocolate.
Chiyo ran over to Inumaki Saki, holding her pencil case as if it were chocolate, and tried to recite her lines without stumbling: "Suzuki-san, this is my chocolate. Please accept it."
Inumaki looked down and saw Saki standing behind him.
Inujuan Ji: "...wooden fish flower."
Saki: "Thank you, Oo-san, but I can't accept your chocolate."
After reading the lines, Saki couldn't help but complain: "You actually named it OO, you are so perfunctory!"
Nozaki: "Ah, since it's a new character, I haven't decided on a name yet."
Even the characters are drawn very casually.
When hearing Nozaki's voice, Chiyo suddenly imagined the current situation as the future situation.
If, if I gave Nozaki-san some chocolate...
A picture unfolded in Chiyo's mind.
Spring, February 14th, Valentine's Day.
She took the chocolate she had prepared for many days and went to Nozaki-kun, shyly but bravely saying, "This is the chocolate I made myself. I hope Nozaki-kun can accept it."
Then Nozaki-san said—
"Thank you, Sakura-san, but I can't accept your chocolate."
Chiyo: (Pale) (Vomiting) (Can't help but fall to the ground) (Holding her head)
"Wow, I'm such a failure—"
Saki couldn't help but poke her head out from behind Inumaki Saki, "Eh, eh?! Wait...Chiyoko?! Calm down! Those are all fake, illusions! Wake up!"
Chiyo was awakened by Saki's voice and suddenly stopped her sad mood, "S-Saki-san?"
Saki: "Don't let your imagination run wild! If it were Chiyo, it would definitely succeed!"
Chiyo suddenly felt revived: "Really? QAQ?"
Saki: “Really.”
...No matter what, Nozaki wouldn't be so cold and indifferent, right? Maybe?
Thinking of this, Saki couldn't help but glance at Nozaki next to her.
But Nozaki didn't notice Saki's actions at all. Instead, he got new inspiration from Chiyo's impromptu performance, and he lowered his head and wrote quickly.
“…”
Chiyo was very embarrassed: "I'm so sorry! The script was disrupted because of me."
Saki: "It's okay, it's okay, let's continue."
Saki retreated behind Inumaki Tsuchiya.
Then comes Mamiko's appearance.
Although Mikoshiba couldn't really put himself in Mamiko's shoes - after all, he didn't like Inumaki Tsutomu, and couldn't treat him as Suzuki - fortunately, the clever Nozaki had his way.
He leaned close to Mikoshiba's ear and whispered a few words, and Mikoshiba's expression immediately changed.
He pursed his lips and looked at Saki with a variety of complicated emotions in his eyes.
Saki blinked and pointed at herself in confusion.
Huh? Me?
Mikoshiba: "That's too much!"
Saki: “Huh?”
Although the lines deviated from the original script, Mikoshiba's reactions were very real.
"It was obviously me first..."
Saki: No?
Mikoshiba: "It was obviously me first!"
Saki: "Okay, you were the first one."
Mikoshiba: "But you treat them better than me!"
“…”
I always feel that things are developing strangely.
When Inumaki Ji heard what Mikoshiba said, his expression changed slightly.
He pursed his lips, and his position changed imperceptibly, standing in front of Saki.
Saki didn't notice it at first, but when she realized that Mikoshiba's face seemed to be blocked in her field of vision, and the back of Inumaki Saki appeared in front of her, she became slightly aware of it.
...Is it an illusion?
Saki tilted her head.
It seems like Goujuan is protecting himself.
Inumaki Ji raised his eyes coldly and looked at Mikoshiba.
Although he and Saki are of the same age and have the immaturity of a high school student on his face, his aura is completely different from that of an ordinary high school student.
Just standing there gives people a sense of security.
Although he knew that he was inferior to Mikoshiba in many aspects, and as the other party said, he was not even the first one to know Saki.
but……
Goujuanji curled up his fingers slightly in his pocket and clenched them.
Saki thought about it for a moment, "That's not right."
Mikoshiba: "What's wrong?"
Saki: "It seems you weren't the first one."
Mikoshiba was stunned: "Ah, ah?"
Saki popped her head out from behind Inumaki Saki.
Because of her position and height, her posture at the moment was a bit like resting her chin on Inumaki's shoulder.
Gou Juanji almost held his breath, his whole body stiff and he dared not move. His originally cold expression suddenly melted like ice and snow, and his ears were covered with red.
He turned his head away a little embarrassedly, resisting the urge to pull his scarf.
She pursed her lips tightly, and even though she felt uncomfortable, she didn't want to move away at all.
Saki pointed at Inugami Saki and said, "But I met Inugami first."
Mikoshiba:......
Mikoshiba:! ! !
He was completely shocked. "Really? Is that true?"
Saki nodded affirmatively.
"Because I ran into Gojuan on my way to school on the first day of school. Oh, and Chiyo and Nozaki too. I met them at the school gate."
Saki touched her chin and said, "Hiss, now that I think about it..."
She glanced at Yu Zi Chai and couldn't help but smile teasingly, "You are the last one, Xiao Yuyu~"
a bolt from the blue!
Mikoshiba didn't even care about the name that Saki deliberately changed. He was like a stick figure that had lost its color, and his whole body was shrouded in gloom.
"I am the last, I am the last, I am the last..."
Chiyo thought about it and said, "It seems that it is true."
And that day was also the day she met Nozaki-san.
Thinking of this, Chiyo couldn't help but secretly glance at Nozaki.
Mikoshiba has lost its luster.
Saki couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I'm sorry, but that's hilarious."
She now understood the whole story.
So Mikoshiba thought he was her first friend, so she is jealous now?
I feel like he was the first one to become friends, so why was he surpassed by someone else later... like this?
But unexpectedly, he was actually the last person to get to know Saki.
Hahaha, so interesting.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that Mikoshiba did show some displeasure after finding out that Chiyo was her friend.
She didn't realize it at that time, but instead thought that it was Mikoshiba herself who was confused.
Now it seems that this is the case.
Although it is very heartless, I am sorry that she wanted to laugh.
Thinking of this, Saki actually laughed out loud, without any attempt to hide it, quite excessively.
Because the distance was too close, some of the exhaled breath sprayed onto Goujuanji's earlobe.
Although the high scarf covered a lot of the air, there was still some itchy air passing by his ears.
Gou Juanji's whole body became increasingly stiff.
Even when facing difficult and intractable cursed spirits, he had never been so panicked...
Saki looked at Goumaki with a smile, intending to share this interesting discovery with him, but unexpectedly saw Goumaki's stiff and extremely shy expression.
Although he tried his best to cover it up and his expressionless face provided a good concealment, some subtle changes could not deceive others.
Saki was stunned for a moment, then belatedly noticed that she was now too close.
Oops… She seemed to be too careless to notice the distance between them.
That's so rude.
Thinking of this, Saki subconsciously left.
"S-Sorry."
For some reason, she also felt embarrassed.
Saki blushed, "I, um, didn't mean it."
Goujuanji almost held his breath.
After Saki left, although Inuju felt a little reluctant, he immediately suppressed such emotions.
His eyelashes fluttered and he reached out to grab his scarf, as if pulling up his own protective layer.
"Wu, Muyu flower."
Saki nodded randomly, "Yeah, that's good."
...Help, what is she replying to after reading it?
And that distance just now, ahhhh, why was she so careless.
Saki was so embarrassed that she was almost angry.
She took a deep breath and tried to suppress her emotions.
It’s, it’s no big deal...right? After all, Inumaki Ji said it’s okay.
Although it is very likely that I don’t think it matters because others are better.
Then, Saki thought of another thing.
She was definitely not someone who didn't have a sense of distance. On the contrary, when facing strangers or people she didn't like, Saki was very reluctant to have close physical contact or distance with them. However, when facing Inumaki Saki, she had no feelings of disgust or rejection at all, and even...
Accepted it too quickly.
So much so that she had unknowingly moved closer before she even noticed.
What is this called?
Saki's face flushed crimson.
