I, Aki Tomoya, will not be a simp.

As the recorder for Misumi's class, Kube Rokuro went there almost every day.

At first, Aki Tomoya admired his diligence, but later, after learning that the man had actually applied for a leave of absence from medical school, he had many doubts.

We are both medical students, but we have many differences.

As for other people's affairs, Aki Tomo has no reason to meddle.

Meanwhile, the pathology classroom is also very busy, as Professor Yano will be going to Paris to attend an academic conference later this month, so naturally they need to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Until mid-month, Aki Tomoya barely rested.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's new work, created under a different name, has also been officially released.

Chapter 274 You really have a bad memory! (4/4)

Things at the school, things in the pathology classroom, things at UDI.

Aki Tomoya has almost no free time to care about anything else.

So much so that Takagi sought him out for a long talk.

The expression on the other person's face when they found him was unforgettable for Aki Tomoya.

That expression made her look like a wronged woman; one wonders what upsetting thing she'd encountered this time.

He's already back from Kyoto and living a carefree life in Tokyo. Has he been dissatisfied with anything lately?

"An Yi, have you forgotten something?"

Takagi's question left Aki Tomoya looking puzzled.

I've been busy with the pathology classroom and UDI work lately. Is there anything I've forgotten?

In the classroom of Science 3, Aki Tomoya looked at Takagi sitting next to him with a completely bewildered expression.

He's definitely not a forgetful person; if he promised someone something, he'd remember it.

But Takagi's current appearance really puzzled him; he couldn't understand what Takagi had forgotten.

No matter how much he thought about it, no matter how much Takagi winked at him, he still didn't know what Takagi was trying to express.

"Takagi-kun, why don't you just tell me what it is?"

Aki Tomoya, who was about to burst out laughing at Takagi's expression, could only ask directly at this moment.

The last time I saw Takagi with such a defeated expression was back in Kyoto.

At that time, with his sister in front and his father behind, Takagi's days in Kyoto were extremely difficult.

This time, he must have encountered some terrible thing that has somehow gotten into him, and it seems like he's been dragged into it.

"You really don't remember?"

To everyone's surprise, when Aki Tomoya asked the question, Takagi's expression immediately darkened.

"Don't get so agitated, just tell me what's on your mind!"

Aki Tomoya was so frightened that he moved to the side, fearing that Takagi would devour him alive at this moment.

The other party is so agitated; this must be something extraordinary!

Aki Tomoya was now completely puzzled as to what important thing he had forgotten.

Seeing that Aki Tomoya had truly forgotten, Takagi sighed heavily.

He calmed down a bit and composed himself.

If Takagi didn't know what kind of person Aki Tomoya was, he would have thought that Aki Tomoya did it on purpose, causing him to worry about things in his hometown of Kyoto while he was in Tokyo.

"What did you promise that brat when you were in Kyoto?"

When they went to Kyoto together last month, Aki Tomoya and Majima witnessed just how amazing Takagi's sister really was.

Now that they've mentioned Takagi's younger sister, Takagi Karen, Aki Tomoya remembers everything!

"...I know, I've been a bit busy lately, I'm so sorry I forgot about it!"

Aki Tomoya laughed as he spoke.

It wasn't intentional on his part; it was just that thinking about the relationship between Takagi and his sister made him genuinely unable to hold back.

Takagi, on the other hand, was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"You brat, you forgot about that? You made me feel disgusted by that brat again, and now you're shamelessly laughing!"

Takagi was truly furious.

Aki Tomoya is actually laughing gleefully now; I really want to beat my chest in frustration.

Of all things to forget, why this one?

From the moment he received his sister's call, Takagi knew he was in trouble!

Sure enough, after several hints, he knew something big had happened.

If he doesn't stabilize the rear in Kyoto, how will he be able to roam the front lines in Tokyo in the future!

Therefore, he had to come to Aki Tomoya to get his "forgetful" friend to finish what he needed to do quickly.

"I understand, I will do it. Don't get too upset with a child!"

Aki Tomoya wanted to stabilize Takagi first.

He had indeed forgotten what he had promised the other party's sister.

I feel guilty for causing Takagi this trouble, but for some reason I just want to laugh.

If this continues, he might consider me a bad friend.

"Get this done quickly, or I'll block your door!"

What vicious words!

Since Takagi has said so, we'll definitely make sure everything is arranged perfectly for him!

With Takagi's reminder, Aki Tomoya took some time after returning home and asked his junior, Hashima, if she could help him with a small favor during his sea trip.

As expected, they said there was absolutely no problem, and even said that if anything happened in the future, just let them know!

Moved, Aki Tomoya even wondered where he could find a junior like her!

However, because of this, after going out to sea from Hashima, it was as if she had opened a floodgate of conversation and started chatting with Aki Tomoya.

Recent events include Iori Hashima's busy project and her studies with Eriri.

Surprisingly, his junior classmate said a lot of nice things about Eriri.

Even Aki Tomoya couldn't help but sigh, wondering when Eriri and his junior, Hashima Ikemi, had become so close!

……

It was the day that Utaha Kasumigaoka, under a different name, officially released her new work, marking a transformation.

She was keeping a close eye on things!

Whether we can achieve a good result in the first battle depends on now!

"Eri, it's inconvenient for me to get involved, but could you help me promote my book?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sets her sights on Eriri, her long-time partner.

She's using an alternate account to write popular fiction this time, so it's inconvenient for her to promote it on her own homepage.

But Eriri is different; her popularity is not to be underestimated.

If Eriri could help recommend it on her homepage, it would be a great help in converting some readers.

"...Are you really that insecure?"

Eriri didn't rush to agree; instead, she joked.

Having almost become a legend in the light novel world, it seems the other party isn't entirely confident about transitioning to writing popular novels.

"Make appropriate use of the resources around you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha replied very briefly.

Since we have resources, why not make use of them? We've been partners for so long; you help me, I help you.

It means that we are intertwined, each other in our own way!

Regarding her novel, which represents a shift in her career path, Kasumigaoka Utaha firmly believes in the saying: "If you write well, gold will shine!"

Asking Eriri to help with promotion would certainly be the icing on the cake.

"Besides, as soon as you saw Aki helping my junior promote his book last month, you immediately followed suit and did the same thing!"

"Well!"

Ying Lili's face changed.

She did do that, but now she has to explain: "That Kudo novel is really well-written, that's why I recommended it!"

So stubborn?

"Then please ask Ms. Kashiwagi Eri to take a look at my book and consider it, how about that? I'll remember this favor, and I'll be your wingman in the future!"
