Lost Narrative Poetry

"Hahaha, speaking of which, the weather today is really nice..."

After a while, Xia Ran seemed to suddenly become very interested in today's weather. She turned to look out the window and said with a dry smile.

The clear sky outside the window is cloudless, which seems to indicate that today will be another hot summer...

But yes! After all, it is almost June now. There is a saying in "Poetry·Xiaoya·April": "April is summer, June is summer", which means that summer is in April and summer is in June.

"April in that sentence refers to the old calendar. If calculated according to the modern calendar, it should be that summer begins in May and summer begins in July. Although it is almost the same as what you want to express..."

Yukinoshita said calmly, and then pointed to the essence: "But do you just want to say this?"

"Ah haha, of course not. Well, what I want to say is that we shouldn't waste time...or let's go directly to Yuigahama and the others. I'm afraid they won't be able to find them here."

Xia Ran smiled heartily and said calmly.

"It's not urgent. As you said before, it's impossible for two big people to be lost in the city center... I have already sent an email to Yuigahama-san, and she said she will be here soon."

Yukinoshita said calmly: "Let's find a place to sit down and wait, so as not to search at both ends and fail to find it at both ends..."

"..." Xia Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, why did these words sound familiar, as if he had said it just a few minutes ago.

"Classmate Xia Ran? Why are you here too?"

At this time, another slightly surprised familiar voice sounded.

In the aisle ahead, a boy wearing big round glasses and a crew-neck shirt and sports jacket also walked over. He originally wanted to come over quickly to check on Ying Lili, but he saw a familiar figure. He froze in place.

"Woo..."

At the same time, the girl with blond hair and twin tails got up from the ground in a bit of embarrassment. She bit her lower lip hard, her expression full of humiliation and anger, and she stared at the young man in front of her with a look that wanted to kill.

It wasn't just because the other party didn't help me at the critical moment and made me fall flat on the ground. Maybe all my breasts, which I didn't have much in the first place, were lost...

It's not just because the other party insists that he never knows her, which doesn't sound like an excuse, but because he really has no impression of her as a person, which makes her, a well-known young lady who is almost unknown to everyone in the school, feel this. defeat……

What's more important is that she is not a slow-responsive person, and now she has naturally heard a lot of key information - not only does this hateful guy not remember her, but he has been lying to her from the beginning, and even the name is... is fake!

What is this? Why be so perfunctory? !

The ace of the school's art department and the masked princess recognized by the school as one of the most attractive, Sawamura Spencer Eri, felt unprecedented humiliation and anger at this moment. However, before she could explode—

"Um... these guests, could you please go back to your seats first? You blocking the aisle like this will cause trouble to other guests."

At this time, the employees in the store finally reacted and came to the rescue. After all, so many people gathered in one aisle, and just looking at the atmosphere felt something was wrong. Some people who had just walked to the door of the store took a look and were confused. He turned around and left immediately.

I might have thought that there was a Mortal Kombat show going on in the store and someone was causing trouble or something, so I just left out of fear of trouble.

If this continues, they will no longer want to do business today.

…

…

Half a minute later.

On a seat in the middle, Xia Ran and Yukinoshita sat down, and opposite was the thin first-year student Ichiraku. He now knew that he had caused some trouble to Chen...senior Xia Ran, so he seemed Somewhat embarrassed and reserved.

Yukinoshita sat next to Xia Ran, keeping a distance from her. Her expression was quite calm and natural, and there was nothing awkward about it. Although if it weren't for Ichijo Le sitting opposite, she definitely wouldn't have chosen to sit with Xia Ran.

Two aisles away, in the middle window seat over there, An Yilun was still sitting at the same table. Because the booths could only seat four at most, everyone could only sit at two tables.

It is also unrealistic to share a table, because both parties are not familiar with each other on the whole, and it would be a bit awkward to sit next to each other. Maybe Xia Ran and An Yilun could talk to each other, but the relationship between the others was very unfamiliar, and it was really impossible to say that they started chatting happily.

So, that would definitely be embarrassing...

Ying Lili also sat back in her original seat with a look of humiliation. She was alone and didn't seem to be really hurt. An Yilun also asked her several times with concern, but she turned back impatiently - —

If he hadn't been angry with that shameless woman all the time, how could he have encountered such a thing? ! The most disgusting thing is that he and that guy obviously knew each other, but they teamed up to deceive him!

To sum up, everything is time... Ah, no, everything is An Yilun's fault!

At least she has every reason to be angry with An Yilun!

An Yilun could only smile bitterly. Neither party could afford to offend him, so what else could he say? And in the end, classmate Xia Ran didn't do anything wrong. She almost spilled the beans, but she didn't realize that the other party was completely unwilling to reveal her identity.

So the other party stopped his reckless behavior in time and temporarily made up a false name to deal with Yinglili who was suspicious at the time... This kind of thing is actually quite normal, right?

Although there is no need to make up an obscure fake name at all, even if he says his name, as long as his true identity is hidden, there will be no problem. But who knows what classmate Xia Ran was thinking at the time, his perfunctory attitude was too obvious.

But now the problem has come. As long as it is a lie, it will definitely be discovered. Xia Ran does not want his true identity to be exposed, and then be visited by arrogant fans and die in confusion...

Ah, no, I don't want his true identity to be exposed and his peaceful daily life to be broken.

So how should we explain it? Or should we continue to weave a lie along the lines of what we have said before?

For example, Xia Ran is indeed proficient in certain otaku culture skills, but she is unwilling to make this aspect widely known. After all, no matter how you say it, otakus are not a group of great people.

Many people still have a heartfelt prejudice against the culture of otakus and otakus. Some people don't say anything openly, but they are so contemptuous in their hearts. And some people not only have arrogance and prejudice in their hearts, but they also want to criticize them openly.

Even Yinglili herself is the same——

She usually behaves like a wealthy lady in school, and is very popular among her classmates and seniors. However, her identity as a hidden otaku is not known to anyone, and no one who doesn't know her would know that she still has one. One identity is a famous fan artist whose pen name is "Kashiwagi Eri"? !

It's vaguely said that he is a fan artist, but in fact if you really want to get to the bottom of it, he is basically the kind of person who draws R18 eroge books.

Although she didn't want to expose herself as a popular eroge painter, and Xia Ran-san's reasons were definitely not that bad, they were essentially the same. Anyway, most people who hate otakus don't Will carefully identify the issues of badness.

It has to be said that An Yilun's brain is still very good. At this time, he was thinking very fast. He came up with a very suitable explanation in three strokes, which could help Xia Ran explain his identity. Keep hiding it.

Although there is a saying that the beginning of a lie means that countless lies will be used to cover it later, but who cares what happens in the future! Getting over the immediate difficulties first is the biggest problem.

"It turns out that these are classmates Xia Ran and Yukinoshita... I can see the real master today."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked in the direction to the side, glanced at the table two aisles away, then looked back and stared at An Yilunye, and said pointedly.

"But I'm a little strange, Renye-san, why do you have an interaction with such a classmate? In my impression, you are not such a straightforward person. Can you explain it to me?"

Sure enough, it’s here! But this time, his name was actually called properly, and An Yilun also felt a little touched. Speaking of which, why do two people like to joke about their names so much?

snort! This woman always knows how to be cautious and pretentious when outsiders are present. It's really hypocritical... Yinglili becomes more and more unhappy, but she also urgently needs an answer at this time, so she just stares with sharp eyes. He stared at An Yilun.

"Actually, it's like this..." An Yilun also sighed in his heart. At this time, it was too late to ventilate with the person involved. He could only tell the re-woven reasons as he thought at the beginning.

Of course, it's not a big problem. It's impossible for these two people to go to Xia Ran for confirmation immediately after listening to it, because both of them are not very familiar with each other, even Ying Lili, the violent blond with twin tails who is already angry. , and there is no reason.

Therefore, he still has plenty of time. After explaining this matter to the person involved, the two parties' opinions will be completely consistent and there will be no more problems.

And on the other side——

"Speaking of which, classmate Ichijo, did you come out alone today? I see that you seem to be restless all the time?"

After a few simple conversations, Xia Ran was keenly aware of the thin boy's uneasiness, so he asked directly.

The girl next to him calmly took a sip of the drink without making any comments. She didn't know Ichijo Raku, and now she only knew a name. There was nothing to say.

"Yes, yes, Senior Xia Ran..." Ichijole was stunned for a moment, then sighed with a wry smile, "I actually don't want to come out, but it's me... my family, they want me to come out to meet a girl today... …”
