Chapter 273: Night Meeting with Mana [Requesting Monthly Tickets]
After solving the final problem, Haruno Sawayama would not be able to avoid the next thing.
Fortunately, he originally planned to agree for the sake of Riho Morikawa.
So when Nami Takayama asked about it later, he readily agreed.
“Just a simple interview, right?”
Haruno Sawayama asked curiously: "What's the specific time?"
"It will be next week. Then it will be arranged according to Teacher Kiriyama's free time."
"Then Do you need me to make any preparations in advance?"
"No need." Nami Takayama explained with a smile, "Teacher Kiriyama only needs to briefly describe some things during his creation, and then there is the Kyoto competition. Just a few will do.”
As a professional, Takayama Nami knows how to effectively create topicality.
What's more, there are many things about Haruno Sawayama that can be used as hot topics. The first is that he was born in Tokyo University and was able to publish his own novels at a young age. This is not something ordinary people can do.
Not to mention that he was able to defeat many seniors in the industry by participating in literary competitions before he even debuted. Even Shibata Shinkai praised his book.
These places are full of hot spots, coupled with Shibata Shinkai’s promotion on his own Twitter account some time ago, it will only make Sawayama Haruno. No, to be precise, Kiriyama Fuyu Hai's news value has increased.
While no one is aware of this rising star, I can prepare articles in advance and have a good relationship with him, selling personal favors and so on. If the other party really gains momentum in the future, I may not be able to do so. No profit can be made from it.
To put it simply, I am spending a small amount of money to do big things!
Takayama Nami felt that the meal she was treated to was well worth the money.
"You want to ask about the Kyoto competition, I have no objection, but"
Riho Morikawa looked over speechlessly.
“That competition is not completely public, so aren’t you worried that someone from above will cause trouble for you?”
“It should be fine”
When she said this, Takayama Nami also felt a little guilty.
The main thing is that the Ishizawa family is afraid of talking.
But if you think about it carefully, the main areas of the Ishizawa family are in Kansai. If you are in Kanto, it shouldn't have a big impact, right?
At worst, I can go back and explain Sawayama Haruno's situation to the section chief, and tell him what Riho told me just now about Sawayama Haruno's future potential.
People who do this kind of news interview project must have an extremely keen sense of smell. Otherwise, after Haruno Sawayama becomes completely popular, what will they do to invite the other party?
"As long as you're not afraid."
Seeing that his old classmate seemed determined to do this, Riho Morikawa stopped trying to persuade him too much and turned to look at Haruno Sawayama.
"Have the matter with Mr. Kiriyama been resolved a few days ago?"
"Huh?"
Sawayama Haruno looked at each other blankly.
After a while, he realized that the other party was talking about traveling to Macau.
"It hasn't been solved yet, but I have been working hard these days." Haruno Sawayama took a sip of water and said helplessly, "Let's look at it later."
"Eh——"
Riho Morikawa said playfully: "It seems that Shiori is also worried about your situation. I have heard some things from her in the past few days."
"Really? , is she worried about me? ”
"Although you act like you are a fine person, girls can't just look at their superficial skills. They are actually worried about you, right?"
Riho Morikawa shrugged and said casually: " The suggestion I made to Teacher Kiriyama last time is that you’d better think more about it.”
The suggestion last time.
It was about persuading myself to date Mine Shiori. Right. Haruno Sawayama dreams.
The matter of the Miyazawa twins has not been resolved yet. Facing Mine Shiori, he is really helpless.
There is no way, after there are more girls around me, it becomes difficult to arrange time reasonably.
Not to mention that everyone has their own things to be busy with on weekdays. Mine Shiori also has to go to school and go to work normally, and she has even more things to be busy with.
In the end, Sawayama Haruno said perfunctorily: "I'll think about it again."
"What are you struggling with?"
Riho Morikawa raised his eyebrows and said seriously. Said: "Didn't you say you were going to prepare a second book last time? Let's take this opportunity to ask her for help again, or maybe it's about the editing work. After all, I'm going to be promoted by the end of the year." br>
"Although I will continue to be responsible for Kiriyama-sensei's works, for matters that are too trivial, I may have to leave it to Shiori," she added.
"I understand, then I'll tell her later." Haruno Sawayama said helplessly.
Morikawa Riho's repeated insistence made it difficult for him to shirk, but what the other party said did make sense.
Not only for personal matters, but also for official matters, he had to ask Feng Shiori to continue to help.
But if this happens, my time will become even more pressing, and I must find a way to coax Maki Miyazawa and Mina Miyazawa into getting along as soon as possible.
Tonight, I might as well find a way to meet Mana, Haruno Sawayama thought.
While the two were still chatting away, Nami Takayama on the side finally thought about it.
Her eyes flickered when she looked at Haruno Sawayama, and she asked casually, "Is the girl you just talked about Mr. Kiriyama's girlfriend?" "?"
< br>
Riho Morikawa looked over alertly for a moment.
But Haruno Sawayama was a step ahead of her and clarified first: "No, we are classmates and half colleagues."
"I have a girlfriend."
He quickly said added.
The calm tone and normal expression soon made Takayama Nami lower her head in disappointment.
She thought that what the other party and Riho Morikawa just said was just an ambiguous relationship. If it was not a real girlfriend relationship, maybe she would still have a chance to fight for it.
There is no way, she has no qualifications or connections in this complicated society, and she is not like Riho Morikawa who has a better level and just the right luck.
That’s why after getting to know Haruno Sawayama, Nami Takayama decided to cling to her at all costs.
She thought to herself that if she wanted to blame it, it was Riho Morikawa who told her too much before the other party came. In addition, Teacher Kiriyama was so handsome, which made her unable to bear it.
In the following time, Riho Morikawa, who noticed that Nami Takayama had bad intentions, did not give the initiative to the other party, but continued to chat with Haruno Sawayama about publishing. matter.
It was already the afternoon after finishing the meal. After paying the bill, Nami Takayama originally wanted to invite Haruno Sawayama to sit in the cafe next to her for a while, but before the other party could say anything to shirk, Morikawa Riho took the first step and declined her invitation on the grounds that "there were classes in the afternoon."
After seeing the precautions of her old classmate, Takayama Nami did not continue to pester. Instead, she exchanged contact information with Haruno Sawayama with a smile before leaving with Riho Morikawa.
The social activities finally came to an end, and Haruno Sawayama felt a little emotional in his heart.
After looking at the time, he chose to go home and take a rest before deciding on his arrangements for tonight.
Eight o'clock in the evening, Suizuruike Mai Park, Shinjuku District, Tokyo.
Miyazawa Mana, wearing a simple white dress, sat on a park bench as usual.
Feeling the empty environment around her and the dim light of the street lights, her mood became inexplicably depressed.
"Will it still feel uncomfortable?" she said to herself.
I always feel like there is something uncomfortable somewhere in my body. This is because when a person stays here alone, he can't help but recall what happened a few days ago.
Knowing that she would think of those things when she was free, but she couldn't get excited when she was asked to do other things.
In the end it became such an inexplicable cycle.
Thinking of this, Miyazawa Mana's eyes dimmed a bit.
Just when she was about to adjust her breathing and regain her composure, a familiar confused voice came from behind.
"What's wrong?"
"Huh?"
Miyazawa Mana turned around in shock.
What caught her eye was, as expected, the man she had longed for.
The other party was looking over with worried eyes, which made her a little confused about what to say.
“.Me.”
Miyazawa Mana subconsciously stood up and wanted to leave, but was interrupted by the other party.
“Wait, Mana!”
"Let's sit down and talk, or do you want to do what you did in the past and leave if you don't speak clearly?" Haruno Sawayama shouted.
Miyazawa Mana's footsteps suddenly stopped, and she stood there with a tangled expression.
The other party's words could be said to have completely touched the pain point in her heart. It was precisely because similar things had happened in the past that made her so hesitant this time.
But
it’s really time to sit down and have a good chat with the other person.
Several days have passed, and even if you can't accept it, it shouldn't be the reason for you to refuse to communicate with the other party.
While thinking this, Miyazawa Mana spoke bitterly.
"Haruno, what do you want to say?"
"Sit down first."
Sawayama Haruno sat on the bench in front of him, looking with a slight pleading. Looking at each other.
After feeling his serious look, Miyazawa Mana chose to sit down after a battle between heaven and man in her heart.
But there is still a large distance between her and Haruno Sawayama.
But it’s a good thing to be able to sit down, at least it proves that I’m not avoiding myself like I did a few days ago.
As long as he can communicate, Haruno Sawayama is very confident that he can make things clear.
After all, the other party still maintains the same feelings for him. It was just that the order of some things was wrong, which led to the outbreak of the Shura Field.
However, before Haruno Sawayama could speak, Mana Miyazawa asked first after sitting down.
“Why does Haruno know that I am here?”
