[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

After entering the fourth grade, Seijuro was more relaxed than before. Piano lessons were removed, and violin and other hobbies were changed to twice a week. He collected his free time and devoted it to things he liked to do, such as equestrianism and basketball.

Another reason why Yashi showed mercy to reduce the extra courses was to let him devote more to school activities. To put it bluntly, he was to contribute to the construction of the campus, so as to win the favor of more students and teachers.

As for Oshima, he has become a taboo in Seijuro's heart that is no longer mentioned. Once asked by outsiders, he will avoid talking about it.Oshima quietly left the Ice Empire, and none of his classmates asked him where he was going, as if he was a transparent person from beginning to end.

Classes are re-divided at the beginning of the fourth grade, and Seijuro and Hikichi are divided into the same class again. Besides, there is an unfamiliar Hocho Taro.

He originally thought that this silver-haired boy with perfect pitch was one year older than him, but after asking, he found out that he was half a year older than Seijuro.

The three became the core group of committee members in the class, and later actively participated in the recycling activities held by the school to promote environmental protection. They voluntarily set aside self-study class time to collect unused electronic products and waste batteries in all classes throughout the year.

In addition, under the introduction of Jingwu, who was in the fifth grade, they were pulled into the drama club in the middle of the ice empire to do odd jobs, and to perform on-campus charity performances to raise funds for the Children's Hospital.According to Jing Wu's words, the school is a condensed small society, active and popular students are often very popular, and it becomes easy to get into the student union.When Seijuro thought about it, he felt that this was a good deal. He thought that he would definitely finish high school in Hyotei, and it would be a good thing to get acquainted with the seniors above him as soon as possible.

Therefore, Seijuro had to stay in school every day after school to rehearse in the drama club.Hocho Taro was assigned to the performance group, Hiyoshi was in the props group, and Seijuro volunteered to take on a small role in the play.What they want to play is "Othello", one of Shakespeare's not the most famous but absolutely classic four tragedies.

He doesn't have many lines, but he occupies a pivotal position in the play. The last sentence of the last scene of the whole scene comes from the mouth of Rodovico, a relative of the Venetian patriarch he plays.

Masashi had discussed this story with Seijuro, and the two had different perspectives.Masashi scoffed at the actions of the tragic hero Othello, but Seijuro felt that the protagonist who was blinded by jealousy and went on the road of self-destruction was very sad.

In any case, Seijuro's dialogue drama performance is full of expectations.Only Jingwu would complain from time to time why he didn't use full English dialogue, and this proposal was immediately rejected by the vice president who was hard at English.

Seeing that the performance was coming soon, he had to dedicate his morning reading time to report to the drama club before class. The glorious task of picking him up fell on Zhichuan's shoulders, but Xunli couldn't rest for a while.

Entering the golden October of autumn, it is another period of social activity, and the high-ranking ladies who have been silent for the whole summer are about to move.Dianzi suddenly wanted to hold a banquet belonging to their younger generation, so Lai Xunli and several other close friends went to Ajibe House to help.

Sitting at the desk, Xunli carefully sealed the letter with sealing wax. It was really eye-opening for the rich to decorate the invitation letter in a very popular way in the [-]th century, and the inside was still made of kraft paper.Noriko wants to hold a very classic dinner party, and the current owner of Atobe, who likes luxury, seems to agree.

She couldn't help rolling her eyes, if it were her, she would rather spend this considerable amount of money on traveling around the world.She wants to go to the Yukon Territory to see the aurora, experience the sky in Potosi, Bolivia, and the fairy-tale Neuschwanstein Castle...

"Xunli? Xunli!"

Dianzi yelled several times before pulling her into focus.

"Yes?"

"We are discussing the children~" The young women in a circle talked about the topic of "education". Most of the children were of the same age. go abroad.

"I really envy Xunli. I heard that Seijuro-kun won the first place in the violin competition this summer."

"I have always maintained the first grade level in school, and I must not be underestimated in the future!"

Xun Li smiled stiffly, she was already tired of hearing this set of flattery, who knew how much sincerity was in the words?

Seijuro has grown up rapidly, and his behavior has become more mature since the Oshima incident.Xunli once worried about his mental state, and after paying attention to it for a while, he realized that he was really superfluous.

Perhaps it would be a good thing for him to have more hard-working experiences.

The topic turned back to the banquet, and Noriko was asking them for some good ideas in distress.

"If it's just a simple banquet, it would be too boring. I'm afraid it will turn into a business banquet mainly for exchanging information."

"..." Xun Li was stunned for a moment, and a new idea suddenly appeared in his mind, "Since the focus is on relaxation, how about trying a masquerade ball?"

Dianzi's eyes lit up, "Similar to the Venice Carnival?"

"If you want to add entertainment, there is a more interesting way, but I'm not sure whether the public can accept it." She put her fingers on her forehead and explained unhurriedly, "I forgot what this game is called. , but it roughly means that the invited guests are divided into male and female groups before entering the arena, and each randomly chooses a flower from the plate, and the male and female guests with the same type of flower will find each other to form a partner."

Xunli couldn't remember from which book she came across this wicked game, but her bold proposal won the appreciation of all the ladies in the house, and Dianzi was already excitedly picking up the phone to order flowers.

I'm afraid this will be a big expense again, Xun Li rolled his eyes while sighing.

As night fell, Dianzi finalized the final list, and when she handed it over to Xunli, she shook her head. Anyway, she had never heard of most of the names on the list, and she was not interested in knowing.

"I should go back."

She picked up the coat on the hanger, wondering if she could hurry back before dinner, it would take more than half an hour to walk from Atobe's house to the nearest station...Damn it, she had to take a Japanese driver's license test.

"Eh, so early?"

"Aren't you staying for dinner?"

The young women who were discussing about masks and even planning to order handmade masks from Venice were silent one after another, and all cast their eyes on her.

Xun Li shook her head, she missed Seijuro very much at this time... barely counting the poisonous and arrogant Masashi.

The young women took her for granted as a woman who took care of the family, and as soon as the topic was transferred, she hurried home and didn't rush to have children.

She smiled sarcastically, and said goodbye to them one by one, wishing them good luck in finding the right dresses and masks.

"Xunli, do you have any plans for the day after tomorrow? It's time to start decorating the banquet hall. I think you will give me a lot of good advice." Before leaving, she was stopped by Dianzi.

"The day after tomorrow?" She was startled, and suddenly remembered that the afternoon of the day after tomorrow is the performance day of the mini-drama "Othello". "Sorry, I have an appointment. How about I come back the day after tomorrow?"

"Well, it's troublesome."

"It's okay, you've worked hard."

Saying something against his will, Xunli turned up the collar of his coat and walked towards the gate with his head buried.

Xunli couldn't understand Dianzi's approach even more because he couldn't spare time to participate in the children's play performance in order to prepare for the dinner.She is so active in the social circle, whether she has to make a false appearance to win over and maintain contacts, or is infected by the atmosphere, she never knows, let alone thinks that she will be like Dianzi one day.

Xun Li hurried on the road non-stop, but still missed the dinner time.She glanced at the watch pointing to seven in frustration, but it was still half an hour late...

She walked slowly to the restaurant feeling her shriveled stomach, hoping that the food Katase had prepared for her hadn't cooled completely.Unexpectedly, the first to catch the line of sight were a big and a small pair of red heads.

"Hey, why do you—" She widened her eyes.Seijuro just waited for her to eat, and even Masashi followed suit...

"Mom, you're back! I'm almost starving!"

Seijuro grieved and did the same belly-touching gesture, but he didn't dare to explode arrogantly because of Masashi's presence.Only when facing Xunli at home does he act more like a child of his age.

Yashi glanced at her lightly, and silently asked her to sit down and start eating.

The dishes were already cold, but the father and son occupied each end of the dining table without using their knives and forks.Xun Li opened his mouth in shock, only hearing that the mother and son had to wait for the head of the family to come home for dinner, but it could be reversed.

"...I've been waiting for a long time." She managed to hold back a sentence.

Seijuro's expression remained the same, but he raised his chopsticks a little faster than usual, while Masashi still ate slowly, elegantly like a cold and arrogant nobleman.

After the meal, Seijuro solemnly handed over the theater tickets to Xunli, feeling a little disappointed because Masashi couldn't come to watch.

She patted her son on the shoulder, "It's okay, I will record the whole process and show it to Dad when I get home."

"I'm just one of the small characters..."

"Every character has his/her reason for existence, and those characters full of wisdom in Shakespeare's writings are often seemingly unimportant supporting roles." Xun Li tapped his forehead with his index finger, "not to mention you are in charge of the end of the whole play A line, the key to success or failure lies in you~"

Hearing what Kaoru said, Seijuro became even more nervous.He shrugged his shoulders and promised that he would work hard.

"By the way, what role does Jing Wu play?" She didn't think "Othello" fit his flamboyant style.

"The name is tricky, it's called Roderigo." He pronounced the name with difficulty.

Xun Li thought for a while, and suddenly realized.

"It turned out to be that flamboyant Venetian son? He is actually willing to take this role..." Thinking of the Roderigo he played repeatedly showed love to the heroine, and was eventually killed because he saw through the villain's tricks, she began to look forward to the day after tomorrow. 's performance. "Well, come on, I like you guys!"

The corners of Xunli's lips twitched involuntarily when he thought that the male and female protagonists were a group of teenagers who were in the rebellious stage.It's a lot more fun than a grown-up party with nothing real.

……

On the day of the performance, Xun Li dug out the VCR that he had never used since he participated in the kindergarten sports meeting, and went to the middle of the ice empire with great anticipation to participate in a charity drama performance jointly organized by several grades.The layout in the small theater imitates the Italian style of the [-]th century. Candles are lit on the two side aisles to make people relax unconsciously.

The outfits of the young actors have also been carefully prepared, and each piece of clothing fits the size.

Xunli looked around and couldn't help laughing.Most of the "audience" who came to watch were the parents of young actors, as we can tell from the VCRs and cameras in their hands, and of course there were students and teachers who were drawn over with bewildered faces.

"Sakaki-sensei, long time no see."

"Good evening, Mrs. Akashi."

She exchanged glances with the brown-haired man in the expensive suit, nodding hello a few rows away.

Sakaki Taro sat in the last row in the middle, from this distance he could overlook the whole situation, with a panoramic view of every corner of the stage.

It is said that he is the instructor in charge of this small-scale drama. When talking about this teacher who is tense and serious all day long, Seijuro and Keigo's tone is full of admiration.All the students under him were educated to be docile.

Xun Li turned around and focused on the stage again.

She flipped through the brochures and character sheets, and there was still some distance before Seijuro's appearance, and she hoped she wouldn't fall asleep in the meantime.After all, Xunli regretted the embarrassing incident in the movie theater last time, and since then she has a psychological shadow of not daring to go to the movie theater with others... When she woke up, she found that she was leaning on Masashi's shoulder. Sudden heart attack.

The prelude to the music sounded, she closed the brochure, held her breath and waited for the play to start.

The author has something to say: Luoshan lost to Seirin by one point, I was already crying in the toilet QUQ, how can I fix it if I really cried!Why do you want to abuse the red team! ! ! [Cry with a headache] I really want to abuse Seirin!

Start to prepare for the death of Xunli, the fourth grade will pass soon, blood will be spilled in a large area ahead, bring your own blue wave 20+ thank you! [probably a high-energy warning]
