If I don't capture the girl, I will die

He is a normal person, and no normal person would like to live a life that feels like torture.

If no one in this world can remember you, what’s the difference between that and being dead?

"Ah... good morning." Kasumigaoka Utaha turned slightly and greeted Ji Qi with a pretty good attitude.

"Kasumigaoka, did you stay up all night writing a novel again yesterday?"

Seeing the girl's delicate face drooping due to excessive cultivation, Ji Qi focused his mind on reality and smiled.

"Yes, I've been in pretty good shape recently. I can't waste it."

Today, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not fall asleep on the table as soon as she arrived at school. Instead, she held her cheek with her slender hand and chatted with Ji Qi.

She had to admit that talking with Ji Qi made her feel relaxed and comfortable.

You don't need to hide too much.

Because her worst side, which was unknown to outsiders and not her appearance, was known by the boy in front of her.

"How many words did you write?"

Ji Qi ignored the surprised looks from others and smiled. Like Shi Yu, he didn't really care about the looks from people around him.

One is because of his presence, and the other is because of his personality.

"About 50,000 or 60,000. I'm going to submit it first and let the editor see if it's up to standard. If not, I'll revise it from the beginning. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to revise it if there are too many words... I'm a little embarrassed to say this, but since I can't compare to your talent, Jijun, I can only make up for it with hard work."

The sunlight outside the window was a little dazzling. Kasumigaoka Utaha half-closed her beautiful wine-red eyes and said firmly.

Her goal has not changed.

That's publishing.

Publishing means getting the editor's approval. Although she is confident in other aspects, such as her studies and looks, Kasumigaoka Utaha never thinks that she has the talent to get a manuscript published in one go.

Looking at the different Shiyu, who was usually so proud but now so humble and strong, Ji Qi's heart was moved.

Indeed, she is excellent.

Sure enough, she is not just a girl in the two-dimensional world.

Ji Qi has complicated feelings towards Shiyu and Yukino, girls who originally only exist on the screen.

I definitely like it.

But that is fraternity.

The statement that a otaku changes his wife every quarter is not groundless.

There are so many two-dimensional girls, and if Ji Qi was asked to choose only one, he really wouldn’t know who to choose.

But now, he is going to change his mind.

Just treat them as 'ordinary girls' in reality.

……

Sorry for the late update.

Chapter 40 There is nothing wrong with my strategy!

"Hey, Kasumigaoka, I happen to work at Kadokawa. As the first fan of Love Metronome, I'll introduce my editor to you. How about this weekend?"

Sitting in the corner, Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned against the hard wall with her long legs stretched straight. The male students next to her couldn't help but admire her lazy beauty.

She pursed her cherry lips and looked at Ji Qi with a little surprise.

Since she plans to become a writer, Kasumigaoka Utaha must have known some inside information.

She naturally knew how much trouble and time it would save to have a guide in this business.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's long eyelashes trembled, and she said hesitantly: "Will it cause you trouble?"

"Of course not. The editor should thank me for helping them find a popular female writer in the future."

Looking into Kasumigaoka Utaha's bright eyes, Ji Qi shook his head and spoke very naturally.

Not many people would flatter and please a beauty of the same age like Kasumigaoka Utaha overly.

His attitude was extremely accurate.

"Well...it would be a bit inappropriate for me to refuse then."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was not a pretentious person. After she figured it out, she agreed very readily.

She will remember Ji Qi's help to her.

Ji Qi looked at the girl with a proud figure and smiled slightly, "Well, this is more like your style, Kasumigaoka."

"Oh? What kind of style do you think I am?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha maintained this lazy posture, and was very interested in hearing Ji Qi's evaluation of her.

She still likes this feeling very much.

Chatting peacefully with Ji Qi every day, only at this time will Kasumigaoka Utaha feel that she is an ordinary student, exuding the vitality unique to youth.

"She looks bold, but she's actually a very shy girl. She's also paranoid and a little proud. Of course, Kasumigaoka's talent is worthy of her. If I were you, I'd probably be so proud of her. On the surface, she looks like an iceberg on the sea level, but once you get to know her, you'll find that she's just a cute, kind girl who's a little difficult to get along with..."

Ji Qi, who was easy-going, recounted the impression the girl gave him before and after they met.

The girl's delicate, fair face gradually turned red.

She turned her head away uncomfortably, not daring to look Ji Qi in the eye. Only then did this feeling slowly disappear.

Ji Qi was absolutely right, she was the kind of girl who looked bold but was actually very conservative and shy.

'Ding! Kasumigaoka Utaha's favorability has reached 74!'

Ji Qi accepted the information in his mind calmly.

He had no idea about it.

Even if I feel very heavy-hearted, even if I feel that the gloomy god of death is holding a sickle on my neck at any time——

But Ji Qi is trying hard to change his mindset.

The mentality of simply conquering the girl just to avoid death changed to enjoying the time spent with the girl.

At this time, the class bell finally rang.

Kasumigaoka Utaha quietly turned around and winked at Ji Qi, and everything was said without words.

Ji Qi, who had a year of experience with his sister through the "floor", nodded.

He knew what Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to express!

The first class in the morning is Chinese.

Hmm...the teacher is...Hiratsuka Shizuka?

Quiet and cute?

That’s not right. Ji Qi remembered that the Chinese teacher a few days ago was a middle-aged man.

Not only Ji Qi had this doubt, other students had the same doubt.

"Hello everyone, I'm Shizuka Hiratsuka. Your previous teacher has resigned, so I will be your Chinese teacher from today. Oh, and don't forget that I'm also your life counselor. You can always come to me if you have any problems in life."

Standing on the podium, Shizuka Hiratsuka was wearing a unique pair of suit pants, which not only did not detract from her appearance, but made her figure even more attractive. Her appearance also made it hard to tell her age when she spoke.

This is a woman who makes people like her at first sight and has the temperament of a Yamato Nadeshiko.

It was the first time that Ji Qi had such a strong interest in his teacher, so he perked up.

Hiratsuka Shizuka can be said to be a very important character in the original work.

Without her almost coercive actions, the three people in the Servant Club wouldn't have any major interactions, not to mention that there wouldn't even be a Servant Club.

After saying this, Shizuka Hiratsuka tapped the clean blackboard with a ruler and said loudly, "Okay, let's start the class from now on."

If people don't know her other side, they will be deceived...

Ji Qi muttered something.

However, Shizuka Hiratsuka can be a very responsible and good teacher in every aspect.

Why can’t Jing Keai get married?

Ji Qi, whose mind was scattered, had no intention of listening to the class for the time being. Instead, he stared at Hiratsuka Shizuka and thought with interest.

It's really necessary for the plot, right?

Is that right?

Otherwise, if such a cute and rich female teacher said in real life that she couldn’t get married, no one would believe it!

But now it seems that she is still not married.

Ji Qi complained silently.

By the way, Shizuka Hiratsuka just said that if you have any difficulties in life, you can go to her to discuss it, right?

Isn't this a good opportunity to get in touch with Yukino and the others?

As for joining the service club, Ji Qi had thought about it, but he gave up the idea for the time being.

One is that Hiratsuka Shizuka is too confusing. How can he explain that he knows about the Servant Club? There is no good reason. The other is that the focus of his current strategy is still on Shiyu.

Joining the Service Club would definitely waste a lot of his time alone with Shiyu.

and so……

Just try another approach.

Entrust them and ask for their help.

Get to know the people first, then future contacts will be reasonable.

Otherwise, he and Yukinoshita Yukino are people from two parallel worlds, and there is no chance for any spark of love to fly!

As long as Ji Qi revealed her thoughts to Shizuka Hiratsuka even a little, she would definitely throw herself to the Service Club to deal with.

He is 80% confident.

And to be honest, Ji Qi was also quite curious about whether Xueno and the others could help him solve this fatal problem.

Now that Shizuka Hiratsuka has taken the initiative to speak up, everything will be fine.

After simulating the general process in his mind, as well as what expressions he should make and what words he should say, Ji Qi regained his confidence and spoke.

"My strategy, no problem!"

But the next second, Ji Qi covered his face, feeling that it was a bit shameless to trick others...

……

A new January has arrived, and everyone has a happy Children's Day! Today is the baby's holiday, so I didn't give myself a day off during the holidays. I am focusing on writing. Are you surprised?

If you want a surprise, please support the baby with your votes (>▽<)

Asking for a monthly ticket~

Chapter 41 Why Not Follow the Routine

Time finally came to noon.

Ji Qi tidied up the messy desk and walked straight to the staff office in the school.

During this time, I pulled a boy's arm and asked about Hiratsuka Shizuka's exact location in the room.

He wants to use a trick... No, he wants to ask Jing Keai for help!

Private Toyonosaki is a school that was established about ten years ago. The overall level of the campus is considered to be above average in Japan.

So the classroom office is quite spacious.

After Ji Qi entered the room, he looked around. Hiratsuka Shizuka's unique white suit and good looks were still very eye-catching.

At this time, Shizuka Hiratsuka was resting one hand on her cheek, not knowing what she was thinking.

The window next to the work desk was open, and the spring breeze gently blew her ink-black hair.
