The cherry blossoms in Purple Sakura Academy have completely withered long ago, and now the cherry forest is lush and green. Whenever the wind blows, the leaves on the tree crown will rustle.
At this moment, Shiratori Kyoko looked at the scenery outside the window, her brows furrowed, as if she had encountered some problem.
Next to her hand was an open copy of "Purple Sakura Collection".
"Purple Sakura Collection" is a school magazine published by Purple Sakura Academy Publishing House, with one issue every month.
However, this issue is different from the previous one.
"Purple Sakura Collection" has opened a new column - [Dream Chasing World], which is actually a novel column.
Page 10, serialized novel.
"Koshien Dominance! The Ace of Counterattack!"
Author: Amakusa Narumi
Proofreader: Izumi Toru
Editor: Izumi Toru
The girl frowned, not because the writing was not good, but because the content was in line with her taste.
Just like... Mr. Aoki’s work!
Although the genre of this novel is completely different from that of Mr. Aoki’s works, the wording and sentence techniques are also slightly different.
However, as perhaps the most loyal fan of Mr. Aoki in the world, Kyoko Shiratori feels this way.
This feeling surprised her and made her heart beat wildly.
Didn’t mom say that Teacher Aoki is a middle-aged handsome guy?
But, is what mom said necessarily true?
Why does Mr. Aoki have to be a middle-aged handsome guy?
Isn’t it okay to be a handsome guy from high school?
Just like Kazuya!
Thinking of this, the girl began to analyze.
So, Mr. Aoki is Izumi-san’s friend Amakusa Narumi?
No, no, definitely not this!
Shiratori Kyoko immediately ruled out this answer.
Amakusa Narumi's grades are extremely poor. It is impossible for such a person to write such in-depth works. In addition, Amakusa Narumi has a younger sister, and the only wish expressed by Aoki-sensei in the work is to have a biological father.
younger sister.
Therefore, Mr. Aoki must not be Amakusa Narumi!
Of course, there is another reason: she doesn't like Amakusa Narumi's type.
So, who is Teacher Aoki’s true identity?
The girl's eyes turned to the name of the proofreader and editor—Izumi Tetsuo.
At this moment, Shiratori Kyoko suddenly thought of the conversation between Izumi Toru and her.
[I am not Izumi Toru, I am Goyuki Kazuya]
The same director of the Department of Superpower and Primate Biology Research, the same handsome guy from the Department of Literature and Art...
The girl bit her lower lip hard, then looked at Izumi Tetsu's sleeping figure and murmured: "Really, is that so?"
Maybe, all of this is just a coincidence.
Izumi Toru is a fan of Aoki-sensei and wanted to be the leading actor in Aoki-sensei's works, so he established a club with the same name.
Yes, that makes sense.
but……
Shiratori Kyoko took out the note that Izumi Toru handed to her after the home economics class a few days ago.
There are a few lines of Chinese poetry written on it.
This handwriting is also very similar to Mr. Aoki's signature.
Or in other words, it was made by the same person?
Maybe Izumi-san deliberately signed it and lied to me that it was Aoki-sensei’s work?
He is right in front, you can reach out and touch him.
Should I wake him up?
Shiratori Kyoko hesitated for a moment and finally gave up the plan.
It's better not to disturb his sweet dream.
At this time, she suddenly wanted to draw.
So, the girl took out her notebook and pencil, recalled the profile of Izumi Tetsu sleeping during the cherry blossom season, and then began to draw lines on the paper.
At some point, Izumi Toru woke up.
He was looking at the girl quietly.
The ink-colored pupils are shining brightly, the fingers holding the pen are slender and slender, and the blue-red blood vessels on the back of the hand are exposed due to exertion, which is very beautiful.
Under the brush, the pages of the book were turned, the cherry blossoms were frozen, and the boy's handsome profile gradually became clear.
Click!
The lead of the pencil snapped.
Kyoko Shiratori didn't care because the painting was already completed.
Looking at the portrait she drew that was somewhat similar to Izumi Toru, she exhaled heavily and then laughed.
"What? This is not a very handsome painting."
Just as she was feeling proud, the voice of Izumi Tetsu in her ears made her heart skip a beat.
"The painting is indeed quite handsome."
"He, he, and Izumi-san!? You, why are you here?!" Shiratori Kyoko asked in a panic, and quickly hid her notebook behind her back.
"If I'm not here, where else could I be?" Izumi Toru asked.
"Oh, yes, that's right..." The girl who reacted lowered her head in embarrassment, but she suddenly thought of something, so she quickly raised her head and asked, "Then, when did you wake up?"
"When you start drawing cherry blossoms."
"Didn't you see the whole process?"
"Yes," Izumi Toru nodded, then stretched out his hand to see her painting, "Can I appreciate it?"
"no!"
"Why?"
"In short, it just won't work!" Shiratori Kyoko angrily put the notebook into her schoolbag, although she didn't know why she was angry.
Izumi Toru scratched his head, wondering why Shiratori Kyoko was angry.
"Did I do something wrong?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand quickly: "No, no, that's not the case!"
"Oh, that's good. I thought I did something unconsciously to make Shiratori-san angry..."
Seeing him breathing a sigh of relief, Shiratori Kyoko opened her mouth, wanting to explain but feeling embarrassed.
Finally, she lay on the table and muttered feebly: "No, it's not..."
"In a bad mood?" Izumi Toru took out a piece of candy from his pocket, "Would you like some candy?"
"Thank you." The girl took it smoothly, tore off the candy wrapper, stuffed it into her mouth, and said vaguely, "I feel much better."
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Izumi Toru didn't ask any further questions. He turned around and sat back in his seat and began to think.
Being able to paint such a painting from no foundation in such a short period of time, is this an A-level painting talent?
So what’s so special about Kagura Dance, which is equivalent to an A-level talent?
Oh God Son...
You can't let me put on a miko costume and dance Kagura dance, right?
Thinking of that scene, Izumi Toru quickly shook his head.
No, no, women’s clothing won’t work! Absolutely not!
It doesn't matter if I'm thin, but if I wear women's clothes, I can look fake and look real, but that won't work!
Women's clothing is a sin to deceive the gods!
After thinking about it, Shiratori Kyoko still felt that there was something wrong with her inexplicable angry behavior just now.
So, she stretched out her finger, poked Izumi Tetsu's back and shouted twice:
"Izumi-san, Izumi-san."
"What, have you finished eating the candy? I'll give you another piece."
"Thank you," Shiratori Kyoko took it subconsciously and then shook her head, "No, I don't want to eat candy!"
"What is that? By the way, give me back the candy if you don't want to eat it."
The girl quickly carried the candy behind her back and pouted, "I won't give it to you! If you give it to me, it's mine."
"Yes, yes, it's all yours." After coaxing her perfunctorily, Izumi Toru continued to ask: "What on earth is that?"
She lowered her head, poked each other with her index fingers, and whispered: "Just now, because of that... I had a bad attitude... I'm sorry..."
"This level is completely unworthy of apology, so don't worry about it."
"Um!"
"Anything else?"
"No, no more."
Izumi Tetsu continued to sleep while lying on the table, while Shiratori Kyoko behind her covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
