My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

[Eri Kashiwagi: No problem, when will you release your new work? I can start preparing the illustrations now.]

"She agreed."

Dongfang Bai turned to look at Yamada Elf beside him. A smile gradually appeared on her face, and it was clear that she was very satisfied with Kashiwagi Eri.

"Of course, no problem. If we can meet as soon as possible, I really like her paintings. But I haven't had time to visit her before. I never expected that we would be able to collaborate so unexpectedly."

"How come I didn't think of Kashiwagi Eri-sensei before...?"

Yamada Elf touched her chin with some confusion. She had been extremely troubled because she couldn't find a suitable illustrator and really didn't know what to do. However, she was focused on the mainstream art world.

I never expected there would be an illustrator from the adult entertainment industry, Eri Kashiwagi!

Moreover, in terms of the level of eroticism in illustrations, Eri Kashiwagi, the R18 doujinshi artist, is definitely much better than Sagiri. When she illustrated Fate, she managed to portray the wounded but resilient young knight in a way that exuded eroticism...

This is a perfect match for Yamada Elf's light novels, who is often referred to as a 'sex fiction writer' by people on Twitter...

“Okay, I’ll tell her right away.”

Dongfang Bai nodded, finally resolving the issue with Yamada Elf. The two of them were of similar age and should have a lot in common.

But I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like the two of them have something inexplicably in common, though I just can't figure out what it is. Could it be because they both have blonde hair? (Mommy's money)

[Yakumo Shiro: Can we set a time to meet and talk? I'll go with Yamada Elf-sensei.]

[Eri Kashiwagi: No problem. It would be best if we could discuss this in detail as soon as possible. I have time tomorrow afternoon.]

Tomorrow afternoon? Eriri is really in a hurry. She's probably smiling happily right now because she's finally made it ashore.

She said tomorrow afternoon.

"Then tomorrow afternoon will do. I'm eager to see Eri Kashiwagi's face!"

Yamada Elf seems to be very much looking forward to seeing what the artist who has drawn countless R18 doujinshi featuring NTR (Netorare) is really like.

"His true appearance... Chi?"

Dongfang Bai's lips twitched. Fairy would never have guessed that the other party was a blonde beauty, and Eriri would never have guessed that Fairy was an even younger beauty.

"Dongfang Jun!"

Dongfang Bai was carrying a schoolbag and a very large bag. He heard Fumino Furuhashi's voice and turned his head in confusion.

"What's wrong, Guqiao?"

Fumino Furuhashi suddenly called him over after school. Not knowing what she wanted, Dongfang Bai placed the large bag on the table to prevent it from accidentally falling to the ground.

"I've been wanting to ask you this for a while now, what is that... thing?"

Fumino Furuhashi pointed to the large backpack on Hikaru's table. It was clear that she had been holding back this question for a long time, but hadn't had a chance to ask it before.

"This..."

Dongfang Bai thought she was asking something else, but it turned out she was just asking about the bag.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be an instrument like a guitar or bass."

A very calm voice came from behind Dongfang Bai, reaching his right ear so suddenly that it caught him completely off guard...

It's terrifying when someone suddenly appears behind you and starts talking.

"Kato, didn't you just leave the classroom?"

Dongfang Bai wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead. He clearly saw her pick up her backpack and leave the classroom when school ended, so why was she suddenly back now?

"I just didn't bring my water glass."

As she spoke, she immediately took a light-colored water glass from the drawer and put it into her schoolbag.

Wait a minute, this scene looks strangely familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before.

"So, is that a guitar or something?"

Kato Megumi seemed to be trying to express her curiosity, but her expression was very subtle, at most a slight opening of her mouth or a raised eyebrow.

"That's right, but it's an electric guitar."

As Dongfang Bai spoke, he opened the bag, revealing a black and red guitar, which he had taken from the basement of his own house.

When I practiced guitar before, I used this guitar. It was made by the Dongfang family's own business and there is no one like it on the market. There may only be one in the whole world.

At the time, Dongfang Bai named this guitar "Red Moon," perhaps influenced by his teenage years, as the name he chose also had a strange sense of adolescent angst.

"What a beautiful guitar..."

Fumino Furuhashi stared in surprise, her mouth slightly agape. She didn't know much about musical instruments, but her family was quite well-off, and this was the first time she had ever seen such a beautiful guitar.

The main color is black, but it is embellished with beautiful red claw-shaped patterns, while the guitar neck has a light gold color.

Although 'Red Moon' has been in the basement for a long time, it still looks brand new because someone in the family has been taking good care of it.

Now that you've decided to join the Light Music Club, it's only right that you have your own instrument, right?

"It's pretty... but why did you bring a guitar to school? And how come you weren't stopped by the disciplinary committee at the school gate?"

Fumino Furuhashi thought about it carefully and realized something was wrong. Guitars are not allowed in the classroom, and even if you bring one into the school, the disciplinary committee will confiscate it at the school gate.

After being confiscated, the instruments will be returned to their original owners after school. People who bring instruments usually keep them in the club so that they won't have to retrieve them every day.

"Didn't I say? I joined the light music club."

Dongfang Bai thought about it carefully. He realized that he hadn't told Kato Megumi and Furuhashi Fumino about joining the light music club, because he only decided to do so after school yesterday.

"I see. Well then, good luck!"

With that, Kato Megumi nodded slightly, gave Dongfang Bai a meaningful look, and then quickly left. She really came and went in a hurry.

And does she have some kind of superpower? Her stealth ability is too strong; she can get close to me without me even noticing.

Of course, it's possible that she had no ill intentions at all. If she did, Dongfang Bai's intuition would likely have detected it.

After saying goodbye to Fumino Furuhashi, Dongfang Bai carried his guitar to the door of the Light Music Club's room. Before even opening the door, he could hear a lot of noise inside. With a puzzled look, he opened the door.

"afternoon……"

The moment Dongfang Bai opened the door, his eyes saw something extraordinary.

Akiyama Mio, blushing, was pinned against the wall by Tainaka Ritsu. Her right hand braced against the wall, while Tainaka Ritsu's left hand grabbed Akiyama Mio's chin. The two gazed deeply into each other's eyes.

0 ····Requesting flowers···· ········

This is a wall-slamming pose, and Kotobuki Tsumugi is watching the two of them with sparkling eyes. It seems that the three of them are doing something incredible in the clubroom.

"Excuse me..."

"That's not how it works!!!"

Akiyama Mio let out a mournful wail. She had obviously seen Dongfang Bai walk in through the door. When he saw her and Lu's posture, his expression froze and he immediately closed the door.

You've been misunderstood! You've definitely been misunderstood!

……

"Anyway, Tsumugi wanted to know what 'wall slam' meant, so I just did a mock demonstration with Mio on the spot."

.... ........ 0

Ritsu Tainaka sat swaying in a chair with a backrest, holding a cup of steaming black tea in her hand, her left hand propped up on her arm with an expression of complete indifference.

"Wasn't it you who forced me?! I was forced, Dongfang, you have to believe me!?"

Akiyama Mio's eyes were already wet with anger, and she looked at Dongfang Bai with expectant eyes.

Before she could react, Lu suddenly pressed her against the wall. She was stunned and her body stiffened, unable to move at all.

Then, the next moment, her chin was lifted up, as if she was about to be kissed. Just as she was about to push Lu away, Dongfang Bai suddenly pushed the door open and entered...

Is there anything more embarrassing than this? But Dongfang Bai is very gentle and understanding!

If it were Bai Jun, he would definitely understand me, right?

"Well, I believe you."

"But your eyes completely contradict what you said!"

Akiyama Mio frantically scratched her head, her face turning deathly pale, and she slumped in her chair with a look of utter despair.

"Hmm, something feels off. This wall slam doesn't have that girlish shyness and heart-pounding feeling at all."

Ritsu Tainaka touched her chin. She always felt that something was wrong, but she just couldn't put her finger on it.

"That's right, it's because of gender! Where does the shyness and heartbeat come from when two girls do a wall slam? Quick, Bai Jun, you and Mio go demonstrate!"

"Law, law, law..."

Akiyama Mio thought she had misheard. She had just been slumped in her chair looking utterly hopeless, but the next second she was full of energy again.

Is something wrong with this guy?

Dongfang Bai rolled his eyes at Tainaka Ritsu, who was actually pushing his childhood friend towards a boy. Is this what true friendship is?

Akiyama Mio, standing to the side, shook her head frantically without hesitation. How could she possibly agree to such a thing? It was Tainaka Ritsu who had pinned her against the wall when she wasn't paying attention before.

However, while two girls might be misunderstood as having a sexual orientation issue, it's a completely different story when it's a boy and a girl.

Moreover, with Akiyama Mio's personality, she gets nervous talking to boys and has never held hands with a boy before, let alone done something like a wall slam.

"Mio! Have you forgotten '480'? Our promise, we're going to form a band!"

Ritsu Tainaka's expression suddenly changed, becoming serious and righteous, as if he were talking about something very important.

"What does forming a band have to do with this?!"

"If we want things to get better in our band, the members need to have harmonious relationships. We can't have any barriers between us! You see, your attitude towards Bai Jun is completely different from how you treat the others!"
