Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

Bai Ye and Kato Megumi walked around the galgame area of the comic exhibition. The dazzling array of new galgames made him forget the threat from Aki Tomoya behind him.

"Very happy Bai Ye-kun."

"Uh-huh!"

He had just persuaded Kato Megumi to participate in the dialogue between the male and female protagonists of the new galgame. Although the continuity, emotions, and pauses were all problematic, he was really happy and received a lollipop as a consolation prize.

He shook the same candy you get at a confectionery shop, and his smile was like that of a child who had won a marble game for the first time, the candy being the beautiful, sparkling glass beads.

"Xiao Hui, do you want to eat now?"

"Are you going to eat this commemorative candy like this...ah—it's already been eaten."

Bai Ye bit the lollipop, making a crackling sound.

"Because it is a very meaningful candy, I chose to let it become one with me."

Kato Megumi sighed and smiled helplessly.

"It's still half an hour until noon, so it shouldn't interfere with lunch."

"Hmm, what flavor would you like, Xiaohui? Sakura, milk, or lemon?"

"Sakura, I think lemon flavor would ruin my appetite before noon."

After Kato Megumi mentioned it, Bai Ye realized that there was only half an hour left until 12 o'clock. He had unknowingly been strolling around the galgame area with Kato Megumi for more than an hour.

Galgame area?!

The lollipop almost slipped out of his mouth, and Bai Ye hurriedly grabbed it, taking up a hand of the sugar syrup.

"Hmm? Have we never met Aki-san?"

"Didn't Bai Ye-kun notice?" Kato Megumi picked up the lollipop and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

Bai Ye's heart skipped a beat. He was having so much fun that he forgot about important things. It would be embarrassing to tell others about it.

"No, I thought you would pay attention, Xiaohui."

"No, it's a rare opportunity to come to a comic convention, and I'd feel bad if I didn't have fun."

"It makes sense..."

Since Kato Megumi used "happiness" as an excuse, Bai Ye naturally wouldn't be so tactless as to ruin the atmosphere, and he didn't feel the sharp edge of hatred along the way.

The brain, replenished with sugar, regained its normal thinking ability. Bai Ye looked around. Although there were still many tourists, some of them were walking towards the rest area, obviously hungry.

"Xiaohui, where are we going next?"

"There are fewer people now..." Kato Megumi turned the lollipop and asked sideways, "Is it okay if I want to go for a walk alone?"

Byakuya shrugged.

"Just go if you want to. You don't need to ask for my permission. Going to a comic convention alone is also an indispensable pleasure. You don't have to care about what others think. Just imagining it is a different experience."

"No, I'm just worried that Bai Ye-kun will get lost."

"get lost?"

Bai Ye raised his eyebrows cunningly.

"Don't worry, I'm not a child. I'm worried that you might get lost, Xiaohui. Remember to come and have dinner with us later."

"I'm not a child either. No matter how you look at it, the possibility of Bai Yejun getting lost is higher than mine."

Bai Ye nodded thoughtfully and let go of her hand.

Just now I thought the other person was worried that I would get lost, but it turns out that he was worried that he would be "lost", the "lost" in Chinese.

"Then I'll go and wash my hands first, and then wash my handkerchief."

. . . . . .

"Teacher Kasumi Shiko."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shiyu turned her head, her tense nerves slowly relaxed, and she took off her sunglasses.

"Editor Machida, huh... I was shocked. I thought my disguise was so simple, but I was recognized. Those sunglasses must have cost a lot of money."

The person who came was Machida Sonoko, wearing standard OL outfit.

"No, it's just that Kasumi Shiko-sensei's hairstyle is so recognizable. Anyone who remembers your long hair will never forget it."

"There's nothing we can do about it." Shiyu stroked her waist-length black hair, her pity evident in her words. "If I cut my hair, a certain hair-obsessed person will be heartbroken. By the way, is Editor-in-Chief Machida also coming to the convention?"

"It's hard labor..." Editor Machida patted the dust clinging to his sleeves and complained, "Why was I assigned to a place like this? It's not enough to just move boxes and put books in there, the central air conditioning isn't working properly."

"Thank you for your hard work." Shiyu bent down slightly.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Machida Sonoko looked in the direction where Aki Tomoya left.

She noticed Kasumigaoka Utaha at the beginning and didn't want to disturb her, but when she noticed that the two had been talking for a long time, she couldn't help but pay attention.

"But the person you just talked to, teacher, seems to be your number one fan?"

A look of realization flashed across Shiyu's eyes and she waved her hand.

“I’m the biggest fan of ‘Love Metronome’.”

"Is that so? I'm relieved. Perhaps this shouldn't be something I should worry about, but as your editor, I still want to mention that your book signing is coming up soon, so it would be best if you don't make a big news story."

"Please don't worry, don't worry, I know my limits. I've already told Xiaobai-kun that we should try not to walk on the street together during this period."

Machida Sonoko smiled slightly and bent down.

"Teacher's new book is about to be released. I wish you success, great fame, and happiness."

"Thank you, Editor Machida."

……

Machida Sonoko went back to continue working. Shiyu took out her cell phone to check the time and noticed that there were no new messages in the chat group.

"Okay, let's go check out the new book, then it's time to go back..."

At this moment, the voice behind her stopped her in her tracks again.

"Um, Shiyu?"

"Xiaobai-kun..." Shiyu turned around, took off her sunglasses, and revealed a helpless look. "This is the third time I've been stopped. It seems I'm destined not to be able to stroll around alone today."

Bai Ye handed her a milk-flavored lollipop and said, "Would you like some? It's milk-flavored and suits you very well."

"Thank you."

"Shiyu, what does it mean that you were called for the third time? Were you recognized?"

"Yeah, I was recognized by Editor Machida."

"It's no wonder."

Bai Ye looked at the booth of the Uzui Bunko and met Machida Sonoko's gaze, so he waved and greeted her.

"It looks like there are a lot of new books. Shiyu, please accompany me to look around later. Ah - I have to go wash my hands."

"handwashing?"

Shiyu looked at the corner of the handkerchief sticking out of his trouser pocket and immediately understood something. The smile on her pretty face made Bai Ye tremble involuntarily.

"Shi, Shiyu..."

The girl with long black hair pretended to sneeze and sniffled.

"Do you have a handkerchief? Lend it to me."

"I..." Bai Ye was about to say that he didn't bring it, but when he looked down at his trouser pocket, he understood what was going on. He handed Kato Megumi's handkerchief to her with a helpless smile.

“It would be nice if there was hand soap in the bathroom.”

"Don't worry." Shiyu just took the handkerchief and held it in her palm.

"I just wanted to make sure that Shiro-kun and Kato-san had a good time. I just heard someone passing by say there's a prize event where a man and a woman can win lollipops for performing couple dialogues. I'm so envious of being the hero and heroine of a galgame with Kato-san."

Cough cough--

Realizing that the atmosphere was not right, Bai Ye quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, Shiyu, you just said someone else recognized you. Who was it? Did Eriri come here too?"

Shiyu shook her head, a smile of "catching a turtle in a jar" blooming on her face.

She had no intention of hiding her meeting and conversation with Tomoya Aki from Bai Ye.

The most powerful strategy is undoubtedly the open strategy.

"It's Aki Tomoya~"

PS: Reward progress report 58 (8490/10000), 7 updates are owed, this is yesterday's update.

There will be an update for today later this evening.

I stayed up late all the time and ended up sleeping from 8pm to morning. My biological clock... was completely broken.

Chapter 439: Shiyu: You want me to join your harem? Sure!

"Aki-san?"

Bai Ye felt a bit amused and helpless. It turned out that the reason why he didn't meet Tomoya Aki in the galgame area was because of this.

Shiyu obviously figured this out as well. She took off her sunglasses and tapped Bai Ye's head.

"I'm taking the blame for you and Kato-san. I'm a little angry."

"Do I need to thank you, or am I just being your punching bag?" Bai Ye put his sunglasses on her, looked around and saw that no one noticed, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"No need. At least I was able to vent my anger on Aki Tomoya with my intelligence. You're lucky."

"Am I lucky?"

Bai Ye's smile was a little ugly.

Aki Tomoya came to see Shiyu, was he here specifically to congratulate her?

Even if you come to congratulate me on the release of my new book, it's like a weasel paying a New Year's greeting to a chicken.

"Isn't it lucky that I can avoid being a punching bag?" Shiyu fiddled with the white hairband.

She was very interested, really interested, and was looking forward to what expression Bai Ye would have when he heard what she was going to say.

Is it regret, or indifference, or...

excited?

"I will tell you everything, but before I do, let me ask you to guess what Aki Tomoya said."

"Is there a prize?" Bai Ye raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, if you answer 100% correctly, I'll give you a small, not-too-excessive request."

"I feel like you're playing word games, Shiyu..."

Whether there is a prize or not is actually an additional factor. Even if there is no prize or even the other party does not ask him to guess, Bai Ye will not give up thinking.

The relationship between Tomoya Aki and Shiyu has fallen out. When they meet and greet each other, they are just like playing games and getting an SSR. They are in a good mood.

If the extremely self-conscious Akito Tomoyuki could have put aside his pride and gone to Shiyu, there must have been someone who persuaded him, and there is a 99% chance that the person was Iori Hasima, who was inseparable from him.

"Is it about Xiaohui?" Bai Ye asked tentatively.

"Bingo~" Shiyu snapped her fingers. "I got 50% of the answers right, so I can only fulfill half of my modest request."

"Hey, I haven't finished answering yet!"

"I didn't say there would be a second chance to answer~" Shiyu crossed her arms and raised her chin.

white night"……"

"Forget it, half is half, it's better than nothing. Shiyu, you can tell me. I'm mentally prepared and won't scream."

"If you put it that way, I'm looking forward to it."

Shi Yu slowly told the whole story, and watched with great interest as Bai Ye's expression changed from confusion, frown, embarrassment, to surprise. In the end, the astonishment on his face made her feel as comfortable as drinking sweet rain.

"wait wait wait……"

Bai Ye held his head and wanted to sit down slowly but couldn't find a chair, so he had to lean against the pillar.

There was no way. The amount of information Shiyu gave was too much. If he ate too much, he would choke. If he drank too much water, he would choke. He would be confused if he was fed too much information. Now he was in a confused state.
