Lost Narrative Poetry

"Wait, does this have...what's the point?"

Yukinoshita thought for a moment, then asked with a puzzled expression.

Although she couldn't understand terms like "Dragon Ball" and "Holy Grail" except "Magic Lamp", but based on Xia Ran's context, she knew that it was probably the same as the previous one, and it was a concept like a wish machine. .

She suddenly felt helpless - does such a matryoshka doll have any special meaning?

"But, teacher, you told me that my wish can be fulfilled here in the Service Department..."

At this time, the boy who followed in scratched the back of his head and said this with some uncertainty.

"I never said this. I just said from beginning to end that they can help you achieve your wish. They are just helping, not directly realizing it..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka turned around and glared at him.

"They can give you suggestions or help you through practical actions, but they cannot directly fulfill your wishes. They are not magicians..."

"Yes, yes, we must believe in science..."

Xia Ran agreed with Hiratsuka Shizuka's statement, lowered his head, and lay directly on the table.

The girl opposite didn't get an answer to her question just now, so she stared at him with her book in displeasure, as if she was preparing to add a buff to his head... However, he was now a "blind man", and he pretended not to notice it with peace of mind. That’s it.

"Is that so?" The boy thought seriously, then shook his head, "Maybe I was thinking wrong, so my expression was wrong, but I never thought that this kind of thing is really like magic..."

"If that's the case, it's best. In short, don't talk about what wishes you want to realize right away... How can such a thing be possible!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka said casually, then walked to the long table made up of desks with her arms crossed, pulled out a chair on Yukinoshita's side and sat down, which was usually Yuigahama Yui's seat.

"Okay, don't stand there like a statue. Come and sit down first, and then tell them carefully about your purpose of coming and the help you hope to get. Don't say silly things like wishes..."

She acted as if she was her own home, and gave various instructions as a matter of course, but it was normal. After all, she was the club's consultant teacher, and her qualifications were older than Xia Ran's.

"Oh, okay, okay..."

The boy responded hurriedly, then came over and sat down next to Xia Ran. At the same time, he glanced at the classmate with bandaged eyes with some curiosity. It seemed that he was not too clear about what happened at noon.

It’s not hard to understand. After all, there are so many people in the school, and it’s impossible for everyone to be exactly the same. Some people like to be in the limelight, some like to keep a low profile, some chase hot topics on campus, and some are deaf to what is going on outside the window...

Just like in the real world, it seems that many fans of traffic celebrities can easily count tens of millions. However, as long as they are not from that circle, they will not even remember the name of the traffic star, and they will not know it at all. There is such a person...

In the same way, even if they are in the same school, don't expect everyone to know Xia Ran. There are definitely people who don't care about these rumors and hot news. And it was actually better this way, and Xia Ran was happy and relaxed.

"..."

"..."

An atmosphere of silence filled the air in the activity room. After the boy sat down, he seemed to be in a state of hesitation, hesitation, and entanglement. He hesitated but did not speak out.

As time passed by, Yukinoshita unmoved opened the library book in her hand and read it carefully. It seemed that she didn't care about the visitors' time-wasting behavior at all, and she did whatever she had to do.

Opposite the girl, Xia Ran was lying on the table with a lazy look, and he also seemed to be indifferent. There was a sense of "if you don't want to say it, don't say it, I am just happy to be free." .

However, Hiratsuka Shizu slowly frowned delicately during this process. After another ten seconds passed, she finally couldn't help but knock on the table and said unhappily:

"Hey, how long do you plan to keep silent? You are always so indecisive... I wonder if that's why Sawako is angry with you?"

"..."

"..."

"Well, Mr. Hiratsuka, okay, okay, actually, this is what happened. You probably all know a little bit about it, so I'll keep it short."

The boy hesitated again, and subconsciously looked at the female teacher opposite, and then at the other two strange classmates he had just met today, and then seemed to make up his mind and spoke concisely -

"My girlfriend and I are having a conflict. She has been ignoring me for three whole days from the day before yesterday to today..."

"..." Xia Ran couldn't help but curled her lips. Sure enough, she was here for emotional counseling. Is this kind of thing worth wasting her precious time?

In this country, it seems to be a normal thing for high school students to fall in love. They will not be labeled with the wrong and demonized term "puppy love", let alone be beaten or killed.

However, not everyone will disclose their romantic relationships. They want everyone around the world to know that everyone has different personalities and handles the same thing differently. This is not surprising.

If there is nothing else he can do, this boy probably doesn't like to talk about his love troubles to unfamiliar strangers. He probably feels that this is very private and generally does not require everyone to participate in his private affairs.

"To be honest, I don't think this kind of entrustment is necessary. Since there is a conflict, we can only find a way to resolve the conflict. Besides, this is a matter between the two of you. It's not easy for outsiders like us to interfere. …”

After the boy finished speaking, Xia Ran responded without thinking, expressing his views without any euphemism.

Let’s forget about this kind of request. Even Totsuka Ayaka-san’s request of “improving tennis skills” is more valuable than this, okay?

"If it was really that simple, I wouldn't have come here to ask for help. There's just no other way. Sawako has always been very gentle, but this time she didn't answer my calls or reply to my messages. She also ignored me in class. I……"

The boy smiled bitterly, looking like he had a headache.

"To be honest, this is the first time she has been so angry. I can't think of a solution at all, so what should I do? It's really hard for others to interfere in emotional matters, so I'm so entangled, but you don't need to intervene, after all. I just want to get some useful advice-"

"That's it, just give him some advice."

Hiratsuka Shizuka next to him said.

"To be honest, the two of them have been together for a long time and finally got together, but it seems that they are going to break up because of a quarrel... How can I put it, I don't really want to see this happen."

"This is easy! I suggest breaking up!"

Xia Ran blurted out, raised his head, raised his fists and passionately expressed his true insights.

"For all emotional problems, I can only suggest breaking up, fundamentally solving the problem, eliminating the trouble at the source, once and for all, and never reoccurring!"

"..."

"..."

The activity room of the service department fell silent all of a sudden. The air was as dead as silence, and even the sound of breathing almost disappeared.

The boy was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say. What he wanted was not this kind of deceptive advice!

After a long while, Yukinoshita raised her slender palms, held her forehead and sighed softly, and said helplessly:

"I think in this case, it's best if you don't say anything, instead of indiscriminately suggesting a breakup... People who hinder other people's love will be kicked to death by horses, don't you know?"

"I don't know, and even if I facilitate other people's love, I don't see me kicking a dead horse in turn. Why should it kick me to death..." Xia Ran frowned, feeling that this kind of thing was unfair.

"Is that the point?!"

"Okay, classmate Xia Ran, you should be more serious at this time!" Hiratsuka Shizuka also had a headache. "I asked him to come here for help because I want you to give some useful and feasible suggestions..."

"That's right! My classmate, this kind of joke is not funny at all!" The boy frowned and seemed unhappy. He pointed at the girl across from him, "If I ask you to break up with her, Will you be happy?"

"...!!"

Yukinoshita's face was suddenly filled with shock and speechlessness, probably because she didn't expect such a thing to happen.

After a few seconds, she showed an expression of "Wow, that's disgusting" and gave Xia Ran a look that was so cold that it almost gave him frostbite——

"Classmate! Watch your words, I have no such relationship with this person!"

"I don't deny this, but it's obviously what he said, why are you staring at me Yukinoshita?" Xia Ran was silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but say this. This is completely unreasonable!

"Isn't this your reason? Wait, how do you know I'm looking at you..."

"Intuition! And you know this kind of thing just thinking about it..."

Looking at the noisy two people, the boy also had a puzzled expression on his face. Don't these two have that kind of relationship? We were so in tune before...

And in such a strange club room, just two people can actually stay here and read quietly? He didn't believe it at all, so naturally he subconsciously thought in that direction.

He originally wanted to apologize for this matter, but when he saw the scene where the two were noisy, he suddenly became confused.

"Okay, okay, leave them alone..." Mr. Hiratsuka seemed to have a headache and waved his hand, "No matter what the suggestion is, you still have to do it yourself. You can't just go to others when you have a quarrel in the future. .”

"But, I just don't know what to do now, Hiratsuka-sensei."

"You have to do it even if you don't know. The shortcomings must be made up with momentum!" Hiratsuka Shizuka clenched her fists and cheered the opponent, but the effect was not too obvious.

"This... let's forget it. Teacher, you always say that I am indecisive. Sawako is angry with me because of this. But many times, she never refuses to say what she likes and always lets me make the decision."

The boy said with some resentment.

"It's like this no matter where I take her to play or what she eats. But if I can't guess what she's thinking, she'll get angry... I always fail to guess, so naturally I don't dare to make any rash decisions anymore."
