Am I being simulated by their love affair?

From above, the classroom building of Hanaoka High School is shaped like an "H" chair. The long side faces the school entrance, with the upper portion housing the teachers' offices and activity room, and the lower portion housing the classrooms. The shorter side houses the activity building, housing various club offices. Official organizations like the News Department and the Student Union are located on the first floor of the activity building.

Jun Matsueda stood in the corridor on the first floor. From his position, he could see the second class of grade one across from him, his class, and the class next door.

The health care class is still in session. The boys have left the classroom and only the girls are left. Zhou Hu Matsutomoka is sitting by the window and Matsueda Jun can see her profile.

Tomatsu Tomoka secretly took out her cell phone from her seat and sent a message to Matsueda Jun.

"I learned a lot in health class." Silly bunny expression.

After sending the message, Tomatsu Tomoka looked up, as if afraid of being discovered, and then she saw Matsueda Jun in the opposite corridor.

She stuck out her tongue at Matsueda Jun, blinked, and finally drew a heart on the window.

Matsueda Jun remained unmoved and turned his gaze to Class 1.

Mochizuki Haruka was also sitting by the window. The girl lowered her head and occasionally glanced at the blackboard.

Her eyelashes trembled, as if she sensed something, and she looked at Jun Matsueda outside the window.

Then he quickly drew the curtains.

Natsumi Imokawa watched Jun Matsueda return to the club room. She had calmed down, but her ears were still a little red.

Matsueda Jun sat down and looked at Imokawa Natsumi across from him and said, "I won't tell anyone about this, and you don't have to apologize. Everyone has basically seen that kind of movie."

The girl nodded, swaying slightly uneasily in her chair, like a dull penguin.

After the bell rang, there was a commotion in the corridor. Not long after, Tsushima Kou and the others arrived, and everyone found a seat and sat down.

Jun Matsueda counted and found that there were 11 people in total including himself, 4 in the second and third years of high school, 3 in the first year of high school, and the other one seemed to be the Yumi-chan mentioned by Natsumi Imokawa. She was now sitting next to Imokawa, smiling happily, as if her prank had been successful.

I don’t know what she said to Yichuan, but the girl’s face turned red again.

"OK, let's start the meeting now!" Tsushima Kou announced, and the office became quiet.

"The main reason the News Department called everyone together today is to inform you of something."

"The school has decided that next year's recruitment video will be produced by students from Yugaoka, and the News Department will be responsible for providing topic selection and content planning!"

This is indeed a big deal for the Ministry of Information.

"The school required that the theme of the promotional video should be able to showcase the spirit and creativity of Yuqiu students and reflect the school's inclusiveness, openness and rigorous academic research."

"That's a very abstract request," Yumi-chan commented.

"In other words, we have a lot of room to perform," explained sophomore Li Jiang.

“By the way, why doesn’t the school film it themselves? We third-year students don’t have the energy for this kind of thing.” Senior Kikuzaki complained.

"The principal said that each club involved in the production can nominate a list based on the contributions of its members. After review by the entire production team and the school, it will appear at the end of the promotional video. Applicants to universities in the metropolitan area will get extra points on the admission line or in the second exam." Tsushima Ko added.

"Only by having the promotional video produced by students can we show the creativity and inclusiveness of Ueyama High School." Kikuzaki changed his words very naturally.

"It seems like everyone has no objection to participating in the production. Do you have any thoughts on the topic?"

"Why don't we take a look at how previous promotional videos were shot?" suggested Jun Matsueda.

So Tsushima Kou turned on the computer in the corner and connected it to the projector. When he turned on the computer, Imokawa Natsumi was visibly nervous.

Search "Hyugaoka High School" on your browser and click on promotional videos from previous years.

......

"Hmm... they're pretty much the same."

Let’s look at other schools.

"That's about the same."

"National public schools basically just introduce the curriculum and campus facilities."

"Wow, this school is amazing!"

"That's an entertainer's school..."

After reviewing the schools in the metropolitan area, the club room fell silent again.

"What should we shoot?" Tsushima Kou asked again.

"How did you imagine campus life before you enrolled?" said Jun Matsueda.

"youth!"

"Youth Bar"

"Love, clubs, and stuff like that."

"So how do you feel now that you are standing in the memory of your youth?" Tsushima Kou took over Matsueda Jun's words and asked a very literary question.

None of the three first-year students answered, as they had just started school.

"...I'm very confused." Kikuzaki said.

"Anxiety." This was Senior Inamiya, a sophomore who had been reading with her head down. Jun Matsueda also saw her in the second activity room.

"By the way," Matsueda Jun suddenly spoke, startling Imokawa Natsumi, "I've been thinking about a question lately: what is my goal in life?"

"Ahh, it's this stage..."

"Matsueda woke up early."

The senior students suddenly started communicating with each other in tacit understanding.

Tsushima Kou said in a complicated tone, "When the freshmen reach their sophomores and juniors, they'll definitely be thinking about this issue. The school's counseling room is always lined up lately."

"If I were to talk about life goals, that's definitely what I want most." Kikuzaki said with strong confidence.

"money!"

"Ah, indeed."

“I can’t refute that.”

Sure enough, Matsueda Jun thought, when it comes to life goals, the first one is definitely money.

Jun Matsueda, who grew up in an orphanage, developed an understanding of money at an early age.

Money is the foundation of all happiness.

People are greedy, just like Jun Matsueda. Even after having enough food and clothing, he is still not satisfied and always thinks of the children in the orphanage.

"Well, what about fantasy? What about your fantasies about life?" Tsushima Kou changed his perspective. Goals are realistic, while fantasies are unrealistic.

"I want to live in Tokyo Skytree," said Kikuzaki, who likes the feeling of overlooking the city.

"As for me, I want to be a singer and hold a concert at Tokyo Dome." Yumi-chan has big dreams.

"Draw comics, dark, painful and bloody girls' comics." Inamiya put down the book and pushed his glasses.

"Hey, do you call this a girls' comic?" Lijiang couldn't help but complain. The two of them had a good relationship.

"...I want to be a photographer and take a lot of photos and videos." Yichuan lowered his head with a blushing face.

"I want to raise a group of children," Jun Matsueda said finally.

Everyone laughed.

"What's going on with you?" Kikuzaki asked.

"It sounds like what a harem man would say." Yumi.

"The Tale of Genji feeling." Inamiya.

Jun Matsueda did not explain.

Tsushima Kou clapped his hands, ending the discussion. "Why don't we just film this, the campus life everyone fantasizes about, and trick all the freshmen into coming!"

He wrote on the blackboard.

“What kind of life do you want to live?”

"You won't be accused of plagiarism, right?" Kikuzaki Kyon said with a frown.

"How is that possible? I'm just borrowing a topic!" Tsushima Kou said confidently, "Isn't it youthful? Do you feel like you want to see what it's about?"

Everyone nodded.

"OK! That's it! I will discuss with other clubs and the school about how to shoot it specifically. Those who object, please raise your hands!" Tsushima Kou made the final decision.

"The meeting is dismissed!"

The only people left in the club room were Jun Matsueda, who was staring at the big words on the blackboard, and Kou Tsushima beside him.

"I know what you mean." Tsushima Kou supported his head with his left hand and tapped the desk with his right hand.

He knew that Jun Matsueda came from an orphanage.

"Is every child who comes out of an orphanage like you?" As a journalist, Tsushima Kou is always curious about others.

"They all love me very much." At this moment, Jun Matsueda and Haruka Mochizuki were very similar, and neither of them answered the question.

"When I was in junior high school, I thought drum sets were cool, so they saved up their snack money for three months and pooled it together to give me a complete set of Tama's Emperor Star on my 15th birthday."

"Even though it was secondhand, it was still very expensive. I hated the boss who sold them the drum set. Why didn't he recommend a cheaper one?"

"You know how hard it is for kids to resist snacking."

Matsueda Jun said with a smile, but his voice was muffled.

Tsushima Kou pretended not to notice his red eyes.

Finally they left the school together.

When they parted ways, Tsushima Kou asked him, "Are you going to work again?"

Jun Matsueda nodded.

"Matsueda, if you don't have a goal, then start working towards becoming a part-time worker."

"What is this?" he asked, pushing his bicycle.

“Simply put, it means working a lot and making a lot of money.”

In history class on Monday, Jun Matsueda looked at his notebook.

3. What are your plans for high school?

Become a working emperor first.

Chapter 11 Undercurrent

In the morning, after entering the classroom, Jun Matsueda glanced at the school calendar hanging on the wall. Today was July 2nd, Tuesday, and there was still more than half a month until summer vacation on July 21st.

The class schedule for Tuesday morning is Math A, Math 1, Geography, and Physical Education.

Jun Matsueda doesn't like mathematics, or rather, he doesn't like courses related to mathematics, including physics, chemistry, etc.

Competitions in these subjects cannot be won by just memorizing books. He could only get second prize in the junior high school math competition, and he had no intention of even taking the high school competition.

After all, he is just trying to make money. If he spends too much time on it, he might as well go out and work.

To become a working emperor, one must first have an excellent sense of time. This is what he summarized himself.

Biology is okay, there is less calculation content, so I can still try to get into the biology competition.

Japanese universities have a 15-minute "HR (class meeting)" before the first class every day, which is usually used for class teachers to hold meetings or students to read in the morning.

The atmosphere at Yuqiu High School is relatively free. Clubs are allowed to use this time for morning exercises. Students who stay in the classroom will read early, and some, like the student sitting in the row in front of Matsueda Jun, will chat secretly.

Jun Matsueda heard them talking about the sports meet, which he missed because he was on leave from school.

As they were chatting, Suyama, who was sitting in front of him, turned around and said, "Matsueda, did you know that during the sports meet, Sugisaki from Class 5, Grade 1, said he wanted to challenge you to a sparring match. He won the 400-meter race."

"I heard that he likes Tomatsu-san..." He was halfway through his words when he noticed that Tomatsu Touka, who was reading in the morning, looked up at him.

"..." Facing Tomatsu Tomoka's gaze, his voice became lower and lower, and finally he turned back.

Tomatsu Tomoka is trying hard to eliminate all factors that are not conducive to her pursuit of Matsueda Jun.

Ever since the rooftop incident, she would always be in her seat when Jun Matsueda came to school every day. After school, if Jun Matsueda hadn't left, she would never leave either.

Admiring her determination, Matsueda Jun flipped through both math books. The probability and permutations of number A, and the sets and quadratic functions of number 1, were all imprinted in his mind.

He will have two math classes and one geography class later, and he will finish reading all the textbooks he got from Mr. Kashida, including the knowledge points and examples.

This is an excellent sense of time, and Jun Matsueda is very satisfied with himself.

After three classes, Jun Matsueda put the textbooks, which had become waste, into the drawer.
