Anime Crossover: My Online Romance is Megumi Kato

"You know I didn't say this when I agreed to let you go to school in Chiba alone. If you continue like this, going out and not calling home at all, then you might as well come home and find someone to marry."

Yuta Kijima sighed. As someone who was already psychologically mature, he could understand the concern in his mother's words, but he couldn't accept it immediately.

Seeing that Yuta Kijima remained silent, Kijima's mother on the other end of the phone sighed inwardly, but she was worried about her only son.

His son became taciturn after he became old enough to understand things, and after entering junior high school, he was even less willing to make friends. At home, he always showed impatience with his father's lectures.

Later, when he proposed to apply to a school in Chiba, Kijima's father disagreed. It was only after she saw that Kijima Yuta was always gloomy and listless at home that Kijima's father agreed to let him study in Chiba.

But after I went to school, apart from making a few phone calls to my family at the beginning of the semester, I lost contact with them for more than a month.

This panicked her. She worried that Kijima Yuta was still unable to make friends because of his taciturn personality. It took her several days to finally force Kijima's father to call and contact her.

"I don't want to keep Yuta tied to our side, but you should at least call to let us know you're healthy. You're our only son." Thinking of this, Kijima's mother couldn't bring herself to continue lecturing him.

“I understand, Mom…” Yuta Kijima nodded, he could hear the warmth in his mother’s words.

Thinking about how long it had been since he had contacted his family, it was indeed his fault.

Yuta Kijima turned off the boiling water and hesitated before saying, "I'll call you more often to let you know how things are going. I was wrong before..."

“Yuta, we don’t actually require you to receive a top-notch elite education. We just want our family to live a peaceful and safe life.” Hearing Yuta admit his mistake, Kijima’s mother’s tone softened.

Her biggest worry was Yuta Kijima; his gloomy personality always made her wonder what Yuta's future would be like.

Since Yuta Kijima left, she always feels an emptiness in her heart. It's really hard to adjust to having one less person in the house.

Upon hearing this, Yuta Kijima felt even more guilty.

"Mom, I know, you don't need to worry about me. I'm doing very well now." He felt deeply for Kijima's mother; all mothers in the world hope that their children can live a stable and healthy life.

Such a gentle mother, Yuta Kijima couldn't bear to hurt her.

Upon hearing this, Kijima's mother chuckled. "You've grown so big in less than two months. Has Yuta changed in any way? I'd love to see you properly. Shall I come to Chiba to meet you?"

Subconsciously, she felt that Kijima Yuta had only been studying in Chiba alone for a short time and should still have the same personality as before, and that what he had just said was Kijima Yuta comforting her.

After all, a student living alone is already doing well enough.

"No need for Mom!"

Upon hearing Kijima's mother's idea, Kijima Yuta quickly refused, as it would be troublesome if she came here to supervise him.

Let's give him some time to prepare.

"Mom, I'll be on vacation in two months, and I'll be going back home then. You don't need to come. I'll definitely tell you a surprise." Yuta Kijima felt it was necessary to properly persuade his mother not to act impulsively and to put her mind at ease.

The vacation system in island nations is a three-semester system, completely different from that in China.

The first semester runs from April to July, and summer vacation begins after the final exams.

The second semester runs from September to December, around Christmas time, followed by winter break.

The third semester begins in early January and ends in early March, followed by spring break.

Yuta Kijima has been attending summer vacation for over a month now, and there are still more than two months left before it ends. All he can say is that this vacation is really great.

"A surprise?" Kijima's mother said in an unnatural tone, hoping it wasn't a shock. "Is Yuta bringing a grandson back? No, there's not enough time."

Kijima Yuta: "..."

What is my mother thinking?

"You'll find out then, Mom. Don't worry about me. I'll keep in touch with you often afterward," Yuta Kijima said solemnly, ignoring what Kijima's mother had just said.

"Okay~ okay!" Now that she knew Kijima Yuta was doing well after making the call, she felt a little more at ease. As for the surprise Kijima Yuta mentioned, she could accept it as long as it wasn't bringing a child home.

"Your father wants to say a few more words to you, don't hang up yet..." After saying that, a faint noise could be heard, which should be Kijima's mother handing the phone to Kijima's father.

"Yuta! Now that your mother has made things clear to you, I don't have much more to say to you." A familiar, authoritative voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Okay, then…” Yuta Kijima was about to finish.

"Don't skimp on anything you need to spend money on over there. Call your mother if you need anything." Kijima's father's stern yet caring voice came from the other end of the line.

Yuta Kijima smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing very well here."

"Alright, that's settled then. You should get some rest too, and don't overwork yourself with your studies."

"Okay, Dad..."

Putting the phone back on the bed, Yuta Kijima lay down wearily, letting out a sigh, but his eyes hardened again after a while.

"Don't worry, I will live a good life."

In an instant, Yuta Kijima jumped up again, having made that phone call, and the instant noodles still weren't ready.

The water he had just boiled had gotten a little cold, so he had no choice but to boil it again.

The phone call that just ended made Yuta Kijima breathe a sigh of relief. Although he had only postponed the things he had to deal with until the summer vacation, he could at least postpone them for now.

To be honest, Yuta Kijima doesn't dislike Kijima's mother and father; he just needs to get over that hurdle in his heart.

There are still more than two months left, and he has plenty of time before the holiday...

Chapter 65, "Four Lies," is now available.

On Monday morning at seven o'clock, Yuta Kijima got up early to wash up, not to study.

It's because today is the day that Shinazugawa Publishing House releases the first volume of "Your Lie in April." Although this work was completed with the help of the system, it is still his hard work.

Naturally, this will create a feeling of restless anticipation.

As soon as he picked up his phone, he saw a message from Machida Sonoko.

As Yuta Kijima's editor, she arrived at the company very early today, as this was related to her salary and benefits, and she had to keep a close eye on it.

Editor Machida: "Mr. Kijima, I'll be keeping a close eye on your book's sales at the publishing house today, and I'll let you know as soon as there's any new information!"

Yuta Kijima was surprised that Sonoko Machida was even more nervous than him, the author. He replied "Okay" and decided to try going out in a good mood.

"I can't just quit school and go work at a publishing house," Yuta Kijima reassured himself. "Being nervous won't help."

Because he got up early, Yuta Kijima was also the first student to arrive at the classroom today.

Bored, he had to sit in his seat, prop his chin up, and look out the window to pass the time, his thoughts already wandering to other things.

He still needs to go to Shoko's house on Wednesday, but he hasn't figured out a reason to help her yet.

It's impossible for someone to just show up at your door and say they want to treat Xiaozi.

Shoko's family would definitely think he had ill intentions, and Shoko herself would absolutely not accept the proposal.

what can we do about it?

Ugh.

Time passed quietly, and the number of students in the classroom gradually increased.

Several usually lively girls wanted to come over and say hello to Yuta Kijima, but when they saw his eyes drifting out the window and his absent-minded look, they stopped.

"Yuta!" As soon as he entered the classroom, Aki Tomoya couldn't help but shout out in his excited voice.

Ignoring the angry stares from the other students in the classroom, he walked straight to Yuta Kijima and patted him hard on the shoulder.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly interrupted from his train of thought, Yuta Kijima frowned and turned to look at his side. "Damn it, who is it?"

It's a huge confrontation right here.

Upon seeing that it was Aki Tomoya, his sharp gaze softened, and he said helplessly, "Tomoya, what's wrong? Why are you still so agitated..."

"Yuta, do you know what I did today?" Aki Tomoya asked excitedly.

"Oh? What have you been doing?"

"I went to the bookstore first thing this morning."

"what?"

Yuta Kijima thought Tomoya Aki had found him another job early in the morning and was planning to complain to him.

Unexpectedly, he went to the bookstore. In an instant, Yuta Kijima understood what he was going there to do.

Yuta Kijima quickly grabbed Tomoya Aki and pulled him in front of him, whispering, "Tomoya, you went to buy the first volume of 'Your Lie in April,' right?"

To prevent Aki Tomoya from getting too excited and accidentally revealing to the class that he was a light novel author, he decisively calmed Aki Tomoya down physically.

Seeing Kijima Yuta winking at him, Aki Tomoya realized what was happening and lowered his voice, but was still very excited: "Yuta, do you know what? I went to the bookstore early this morning to wait outside!"

"Luckily I arrived early, otherwise I might have been late this morning, there were so many people at the bookstore entrance!"

A dozen minutes later, Yuta Kijima finished listening to Tomoya Aki's story, which made him slightly agitated.

Aki Tomoya is a seasoned ACG enthusiast. Whenever a new light novel is released, he makes sure to get his hands on the work as soon as possible, and then write down his thoughts based on his reading experience and post them on his blog.

Although this work was created by his close friend, and he had already read the entire first volume from Yuta Kijima, he couldn't share his thoughts beforehand because it hadn't been published yet.

However, this did not stop Aki Tomoya from going to the bookstore early in the morning to buy the new book, and because he is a devout ACG fan, he even bought three copies.

They euphemistically call it: one book for viewing, one book for collecting, and one book for proselytizing.

Just as the teacher for the first class was about to enter the classroom, Kijima Yuta quickly calmed down the excited Aki Tomoya, telling him that if he had anything to say, he should wait until the audiovisual classroom during lunch break.

After class, Yuta Kijima's mood did not improve.

He would frequently take his phone out of the drawer to check if Machida Sonoko had sent him sales data.

With his emotions fluctuating wildly, it was lunchtime when Yuta Kijima grabbed a still somewhat bewildered Tomoya Aki and rushed towards the audiovisual classroom.

"Yuta! Yuta! Wait a minute, don't rush." ​​Aki Tomoya was still caught off guard by the strong and muscular Kijima Yuta when he hurriedly grabbed the schoolbag hanging on the chair. Inside was the first volume of "Your Lie in April," which he had painstakingly snatched from the crowd that morning.

I also need to get Yuta Kijima to sign it for me; I can't forget about that.

When Yuta Kijima dragged Tomoya Aki to the audiovisual classroom, he was surprised to find that he didn't hear the familiar arguing sounds as soon as he entered.

Kijima Yuta was still a little unaccustomed to it.

Upon entering the classroom, the first thing that catches the eye is Kasumigaoka Utaha, who is sitting by the window. She has just put down her phone and is looking at Kijima Yuta, who has just entered the classroom, with a complicated expression.

Kijima Yuta: "??"

Seeing the bewildered look on Kijima Yuta's face, Kasumigaoka Utaha paused, then parted her pink lips slightly: "Does junior even know about the sales of your first volume?"

Yuta Kijima thought for a moment, "Not yet, I just had time to take out my phone to check."

As he spoke, Yuta Kijima took out his phone from his pocket. Machida, the editor, had indeed just sent him a message.
