Iruma-san wants to win the Akutagawa Prize

What are you going to do on Sunday during your first week of high school? Are you going with friends? Is it something you enjoy?

If possible, Iruma Hibiki didn't want to answer these three questions.

He was woken up by the alarm clock early in the morning. Actually, this was not his intention. He wanted to sleep until noon, have lunch, and then decadently scroll through his phone until the afternoon when he would meet Ichichi Hongxia.

As for writing—

What kind of writing? What does he write about? Huh? Does he know Editor Machida? Who is that? Is that the comedian's name?

With such an ostrich-like mentality, Iruma Hibiki looked helplessly at the alarm clock that was set to ring at 6 o'clock in the morning yesterday, and looked at the hazy scenery outside the window with some distress.

It's almost April, but today's weather is a bit cold instead of the usual warm weather. The weather forecast also shows 12 degrees, which is a temperature that should not appear in this season.

Hibiki Iruma sneezed after waking up early. He could definitely take a nap at this time, but he didn't like the feeling of falling back asleep after getting up, because it would be easy to oversleep and miss the whole day.

But in fact, even though he said this, he hadn't figured out what to do today.

Could it be that it’s just like when I was in junior high school, watching all kinds of documentaries and videos, wasting my precious youth waiting to meet the heroine?

With this thought in mind, Iruma Xiang suppressed his wild thoughts.

After all, he has watched all the good documentaries, from "Green Planet" to the "Walking with Humanity" series, and his footprints can be seen in almost every film.

As for movies, animation is even more so.

Recently, the works in this world have not been to his liking, and it is no longer possible to rely on them to pass the time.

So after washing up, Iruma Hibiki had some free time, which was rare.

Yesterday's part-time job went smoothly, and the stamp I got at the end was a pleasant surprise - at least I have a plan for the off-campus activity report to be submitted next Monday.

If there was one regret, it would probably be that he was so focused on Nagasaki Suyo's affairs that he forgot to ask for the contact information of Yamabuki-senpai and Togawa-senpai.

However, as long as we form a band, there will definitely be a possibility of meeting each other.

With this idea in mind, Iruma Hibiki planned to open his computer and watch all of Popipa's performances again, as a way to prepare for the performance in advance.

Good night, Iruma-san.

Good night, Nagasaki-san.

His computer was not turned off last night, and as soon as the screen was turned on, he could see the chat between him and Nagasaki Suyo around 10 o'clock last night.

Nagasaki Suyo was unexpectedly talkative. They chatted for about five or six hours last night. After Iruma Hibiki came back from work, they chatted non-stop until about 9 o'clock. Then Nagasaki Suyo went to take a shower. After she came back, they chatted for a while and then they both went to bed.

This is also the reason why Iruma Hibiki is not sleepy at this moment.

After all, eight hours of sleep was more than enough, and he didn't have any accumulated fatigue. Yesterday's part-time job was easy, not hard at all, and it even made his wallet a little fatter.

After flipping through the chat history with Nagasaki Suyo, Iruma Hibiki smiled. He must have performed well last night. The two had a very happy chat. Nagasaki Suyo was unexpectedly a very easy-going and gentle person, which left a deep impression on Iruma Hibiki.

Good morning. It's very cold today. Remember to wear more clothes.

After typing a line of words, he copied a copy and sent it to Ijichi Kouka. Then, Iruma Hibiki yawned and added Machida Sonoko to the hidden contact list.

Guitar Hero hasn't updated any new videos recently, and I don't know what he's doing. Is your high school life going well?

Did you find any friends in the first week?

As expected, Hibiki Iruma was looking through Goto Ichiri's account with some worry.

But as he flipped through the pages, he saw something strange.

【It was such a fun date in Shimokitazawa with my lover.】

About a year ago, Guitar Hero updated a blog post like this, which sparked a heated discussion below, with some even saying, "Is this a real explosion?" This curse is full of ancient meaning.

If you flip back further, there are more and more. Probably between the first and second year of junior high school, Goto Ichiri updated a lot of her daily life with her boyfriend.

I don’t know what kind of mood I am in when reading these blog posts. Maybe my mood is a bit complicated?

He couldn't figure out what he was feeling at the moment.

I just feel a little blocked and uncomfortable.

He quickly closed the Guitar Hero homepage, then turned off the computer, ignoring the fact that his phone, which he had forgotten to charge last night, only had 10% battery left, and changed into a sweatshirt before leaving the house.

There's a Seiyu supermarket on the left when you walk out of his apartment, and another supermarket on the right. The two supermarkets often have price wars with each other, so you can always buy cheap and delicious food there.

Walk to the right and reach the intersection. Iruma Hibiki plugged in his headphones and started his morning jog along the road. From here, he would run forward for about 30 minutes and reach Linhai Park.

The bus is about two or three stops away.

Soon as 7 o'clock approached, Iruma Hibiki could smell the scent of the sea.

Good morning, Iruma-san, you're up early! Do you have any plans with your friends today?

The news from Ijichi Hongxia arrived first.

Good morning, I just went to bed early last night.

Iruma-san is an early riser.

[Ijichi-san is the same. 】

Before reaching Rinkai Park, Iruma Hibiki stopped by the roadside. He leaned against the stairs of the FamilyMart convenience store and replied to Ijichi Kouka.

[Hey, because I need to make breakfast for my family this morning, bang bang! Morning hamburger set!]

A few seconds later, a photo of fried eggs, bacon, hamburger meat and onions was sent to Iruma Hibiki.

[It looks delicious.]

【What is Iruma-san's breakfast? 】

[breakfast……]

After typing two words, Iruma Hibiki paused.

After all, he rushed out without actually thinking about anything.

He walked into the refrigerator with the whole family behind him.

【Double beef cheeseburger with coffee.】

Then he picked out the breakfast he wanted most, took a photo and sent it over.

"Oh! That burger looks like a new item! By the way, is Iruma-san out there?"

[I plan to go for a morning run in Linhai Park.]

【Kasai Rinkai Park? 】

【do you know? 】

"Hello, the total is 479 yen. Do you want the burgers heated up?"

"Yes, thank you."

"Okay, wait a moment, here's your change and receipt."

After paying the bill and putting the receipt and change into his pocket, Wu Ling walked to the counter and took out his phone again, waiting for it to heat up.

[Of course I know! The aquarium and Ferris wheel there are amazing. My mom and I went there once.]

Looking at Ijichi Kouka's reply, Iruma Hibiki smiled softly.

The unknown emotion just now has probably disappeared.

Of course, the phone ran out of battery midway, but it also accomplished its mission.

[It's great! Living near Linhai Park! I had a great time! I'm going to work harder too! See you this afternoon!]

After sending herself an expression to encourage herself, Ijichi Hongxia went to work. Perhaps the breakfast that looked a little half-cooked before was now ready.

As usual, Hibiki Iruma took a lap around the seaside park. It was still too early, so the long bridge leading to the beach was not open yet, so he could only look at the sea from the distant shore.

Around 9 o'clock in the morning, Hibiki Iruma took the bus back home.

"Good morning, Xiang, you got up really early today."

Only at this time did his mother finally wake up.

"Good morning, Mom."

"Keep up this good routine."

"I see."

After taking care of it casually, Iruma Hibiki returned to the room, plugged in his phone, and took a shower in the bathroom.

When he came out, he was surprised to find that there were already more than a dozen messages in his chat software.

All of them are from Nagasaki Suyo.

Good morning, Iruma-san. The temperature has dropped quite a bit today. Please take care of yourself.

[Speaking of which, many bands have gotten sick because they neglected the temperature and ended up missing the chance to perform on stage.]

[For breakfast, a convenience store burger is too perfunctory. Mornings should focus on nutritious vegetarian meals.]

……

Seeing this, Iruma Hibiki also realized that Nagasaki Motoyo and Ijichi Nijika had probably already chatted with each other, and it was very likely that they talked about him.

[Okay, okay, got it.]

【Really? 】

Nagasaki Suyo's confirmation suddenly made Iruma Hibiki feel a little rebellious.

【Let’s have a double beef cheeseburger tomorrow morning. 】

He sent this message.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Nagasaki Suyo had not replied for a long time, Iruma Hibiki became a little anxious. He had just done some bad things, but it did not mean that he intended to reject Nagasaki Suyo's kindness.

Rather, he felt very benefited and even touched by the fact that someone cared about his daily life. The so-called rebelliousness was essentially a reaction to cover up shyness.

"Sorry, Iruma-san, I'm afraid I've lost my sense of boundaries. I didn't mean to interfere in your life or point fingers at you."

【I just think that we are all mates in a band.】

So I want to take care of everyone.

After all, a band is like home, isn't it? We all share a common destiny.

[Iruma-san, Ijichi-san, and me...]

I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable, I won't do that again next time.

Looking at the series of messages sent by Nagasaki Motoyo in just a few minutes, Iruma Hibiki realized that his little joke seemed to have gone a bit too far.

At least it was too much for Nagasaki Suyo.

He quickly realized his mistake and decided to make amends.

[Hahaha, sorry Nagasaki-san, I was just joking... Eating a vegetarian breakfast is indeed healthier and good for your health.]

……

Anyway, after quickly replying to Nagasaki Suyo, Iruma Hibiki was already sweating profusely.

He felt that this was definitely not enough.

It's a classic setting that the eldest lady tends to be more serious about some things. How could he not realize it?

Thinking this, Iruma Hibiki quickly thought about how to change the subject next.

"I'm sorry, Nagasaki-san, I misunderstood my joke. Actually, I feel the same way. Everyone in the band is an important partner. It's just that I'm not used to people caring about me... Ah, of course, if you're saying I don't like it or don't expect it, that's definitely not the case."

"I'm sorry, it's my fault... I didn't consider your feelings at all. 】

After a quick apology and explanation, the conversation between Iruma Hibiki and Nagasaki Motoyo turned into mutual apologies.

So, Iruma Hibiki decided to change the subject and quickly turned the conversation to the band and their future plans. After learning that Nagasaki Motoyo also bought a bass guitar online, the slightly scary topic was finally over.

But for Iruma Hibiki, he was still a little uneasy.

How to say it, he was worried that Nagasaki Suyo would misunderstand him and think that he actually didn't like such care and interference.
