I, Aki Tomoya, will not be a simp.

Following a medical professor in college is much better than following someone like Suzuya, haha...

"Well, it's getting late, so I won't take up any more of your time."

Okajima nodded, and after receiving Aki Tomoya's reply, he turned and walked toward Professor Yano, who was still busy in the pathology classroom.

As he walked out of the pathology classroom, Aki Tomoya suddenly thought of a question.

Is UDI still going this month?

Chapter 262 Comrades Reunited! (2/2)

Aki Tomoya has never indicated that he wants to resign from his job at UDI.

I didn't go much this month because of special circumstances. UDI's director, Yasuo Kamikura, was quite concerned about the impact of the case, so he was given a month's rest as a precaution.

Now I have to help the professor in the pathology classroom again. If I have to go to UDI again, I need to make good arrangements for next month's trip.

As for whether or not to stay at UDI, the moment this question arose in Aki Tomoya's mind, he quickly found the answer.

Staying in the pathology classroom means eating the books.

UDI, on the other hand, offers more hands-on opportunities in the laboratory.

So, just bear with both. Neither is worse than the other, nor is either really much better.

"My college life has been truly fulfilling!"

With these reflections, Aki Tomoya is already preparing for the fulfilling life that will begin next month.

Whether it's fulfilling or busy is another matter, but fortunately both sides said he can go whenever he has time, and whether he has time or not is up to him.

……

October 22nd, time flies, and this is an important day.

Sayaka Kudo's novel has been officially released.

Her novels will be quietly displayed in bookstores. As a new author, although the publisher has given her some resources for promotion, how effective they will be depends on whether God will be on her side.

In Aki Tomoya's view, such publicity was merely a drop in the ocean.

However, Sayaka Kudo had no objection to this.

Take the subway to Shinjuku Ward and wait for me at the agreed-upon location.

"Kudo, you're so slow!"

Aki Tomoya was also urging him on Line.

He was already at the agreed-upon place, waiting.

"Who would arrive half an hour early like you!"

Sayaka Kudo retorted.

She also left early, but it was obvious that she didn't leave as early as Aki Tomoya.

She has this good habit too, but Aki Tomoya clearly does it better.

The same thing happened at the last summer festival; this person was already waiting at the agreed-upon spot.

"How much longer? I'm so bored all by myself right now!"

The seemingly complaining reply almost made Sayaka Kudo burst out laughing.

Seeing this, Fumino Furuhashi, who was standing next to her, had a somewhat ambiguous look in her eyes.

Hearing her friend's mutterings, Fumino knew who she was contacting.

The two were still on the subway at this time. Kudo Sayaka first went to find Furuhashi Fumino before heading to their destination together.

"Stop rushing me, I'll be there soon. If I don't see you when I get there, you can just wait to die!"

After replying, Sayaka Kudo put her phone away.

After she put her phone away, Fumino Furuhashi teased her, "Sayaka and Aki-kun's relationship is getting better and better!"

"...I don't think so."

Sayaka Kudo smiled sheepishly.

Their relationship is indeed good; they still keep in touch frequently even after knowing each other for a long time.

When did you two start dating?

But Fumino Furuhashi's next question stunned Sayaka Kudo.

She was stunned when he suddenly started talking about dating.

Is their relationship so good that people can assume it is?

"No, that's not true! Fumino, stop teasing me!"

Sayaka Kudo quickly shook her head shyly.

The look in Furuhashi Fumino's eyes made her really embarrassed.

The topic of love always makes people's hearts race.

Hearing her denial, Fumino Furuhashi smiled even more broadly: "You still say no? You clearly feel so good about it. Dating is just a matter of time!"

"Ugh, Fumino, I'm getting angry!"

Sayaka Kudo pretended to be angry, but she couldn't fool the quick-witted Fumino Furuhashi.

However, Fumino Furuhashi didn't point it out at this time, she just smiled and didn't say anything.

My good friend's face is almost red now; if we keep talking, the other person will probably blush so much they'll bleed.

After they stopped bringing up that topic, the two started talking about other things, mostly about Sayaka Kudo's novels.

There were still a few subway stops left, about ten minutes or so, when the two got off the subway and found Aki Tomoya outside the station.

"Long time no see, Furuhashi-kun."

Upon seeing Fumino Furuhashi again, Aki Tomoya's eyes filled with nostalgia as he recalled the days they spent together at Aomine Academy.

Everyone was there fighting together for their own goals, and of the three people present at that moment, Aki Tomoya and Kudo Sayaka had both realized their wishes and entered their ideal universities.

Fumino Furuhashi wasn't exactly a failure back then, since her first choice was Yuzuruha University, which she eventually changed to.

With the added support of her father, Reiji Furuhashi, she is currently retaking her studies and should have no problem getting into Yuzuruha University next year.

Aki Tomoya described Furuhashi Fumino as a genius who repeated a grade.

"Long time no see, Aki-kun. How are you doing at Tokyo University?"

A warm, sunny smile graced Fumino Furuhashi's face.

Seeing her former comrade-in-arms again, and knowing that he was now working hard at the University of Tokyo, Japan's top university, inspired her.

Of the three people traveling with her, she hopes to achieve her wish in next year's entrance exam. After all, she has her father's understanding and support this time, and she can't let this extra year go to waste.

"I heard that you did well on your mock exams this year, Guqiao. You should have no problem getting into Yuzuru Utsugi!"

Aki Tomoya had previously heard about Furuhashi Fumino's situation this year from Kudo Sayaka.

The previous two years were for laying a foundation, and with that foundation, Fumino Furuhashi's situation is much better than before after repeating the year and making a final push.

To put it dramatically, they're like heaven and earth.

Fumino Furuhashi did very well in her mock exams this year.

"It's all thanks to the teachers' care; my father also helped me a lot this year."

Fumino Furuhashi replied politely.

The teachers naturally refer to Mr. Tsubota and Junko Harumi at the academy, and her father, Reiji Furuhashi, also helps her with her studies at home.

This year's retake went smoothly without any obstacles, and everyone around her was supporting her.

I came out with Sayaka Kudo this time because I wanted to relax.

"Speaking of which, I should go back and visit those two when I have time. They deserve a lot of credit for my admission to Tokyo University!"

As Aki Tomoya spoke, a hint of reminiscence crossed his face.

This wasn't the first time he'd thought about visiting the academy; he'd considered it before.

However, since there really wasn't much of an opportunity, it was put on hold for a long time.

Today, because the three of them reunited, Aki Tomo thought of this again.

"It's Saturday, let's go home together!"

When Sayaka Kudo made the suggestion, it was immediately approved by the other two.

The three then discussed the past and present, and all expressed some feelings.

"An Yi, didn't you have some friends coming? Haven't they arrived yet?"

Chapter 263 The atmosphere is good (1/4)

Indeed, there are still people left, including Eriri who hasn't arrived yet.
