Nogizaka Chronicle

"Nanamin and Wan Lihua's birthday, what are you going to give?" After the rehearsal, Fukagawa, Eto, Xiaoyangna and Wakazuki got together to buy birthday gifts for Hashimoto and Wan Lihua.

"I don't know~"

"It's best to buy books for Nanamin."

"That's right, Nanamin rarely has anything she particularly likes."

"hot?"

"Let her eat less spicy food, it's not good for her health."

"Ah."

"If you are going to send what?"

Ruoyue was also thinking about what to buy as a present for Hashimoto, but when it came to Hashimoto’s favorite things, Ruoyue suddenly thought of her own ocarina. Hashimoto has always liked the ocarina Ruoyue made. Hashimoto sent an ocarina for practice, but later, Ruoyue didn't know whether Hashimoto was useful, because Hashimoto had never brought it, and Ruoyue was a little uncertain.

"I don't know yet. Think about it."

"An adult's birthday must be given something special."

Ruoyue listened to their discussion all the way, and found a thrift and antique shop, and chose a retro model for Wan Lihua, but in the end she didn't choose a gift for Hashimoto.

"If you haven't chosen yet?"

"If it's possible that you don't like these things, the sackcloth-like hakama, the apple potted plants from Sayuri, and the bottle of wine from you, Misa, are all very expensive things. This time, if I'm afraid I'm going to give you something expensive again. item."

"What is Mai Mai talking about? Adults only have one birthday, so of course they have to give the best and most suitable ones."

"Then think about it slowly, but time is running out, it will be the day after tomorrow."

"Ah."

When Ruoyue returned home, she still thought about it for a long time. What she hesitated was not because she was reluctant, but because she was worried about whether Hashimoto would like it. If she liked it, then it would be the best thing to give him that ocarina.

Thinking of this, Ruoyue informed Uejima to go to Fuji to bring the ocarina.

'I don't know how the teacher will react when he knows this~'

This ocarina that Soujiro called only exists for Wakatsuki's "Hometown Original Scenery", Wakatsuki decided to give it to Hashimoto, whether she likes it or not, it is her own wish, in fact, if she has time, Wakatsuki can Make another one for Hashimoto, but the time is too tight, and she can't spare time at all during this time.

The next day, the members were discussing how to celebrate Hashimoto’s birthday. During the day, there would be rehearsals, and the staff-san also informed that they would celebrate, so they ordered a meal at that time. Although they couldn’t be as comfortable as at home, Not bad either.

"Hashimoto! Marika Ito!"

The two people whose names were called stood up.

Ruoyue is also a little dazed at this time. After the daily rehearsal is over, it is natural to sum up, but the atmosphere today is different from yesterday. After Xiao Shengju was called up, he was severely scolded. Hua cried out, don't you know today is their birthday?If you still treat them like this, if you have anything to say, won't you say it in private?

"Do you know why I want to train you?"

After a moment of silence, the little oyster behind suddenly said, "Of course it's my birthday!"

The music and paintballs caught people off guard, Ruoyue pulled Sakurai beside her, still looking dazed, playing like this?

The simulated stage in the middle opened slowly, and the staff rolled out a cake.

Manatsu next to him said proudly, "I did this~"

"Maxia is also interested~"

"Don't you often make cakes for members? After I entered Nogizaka, especially the airborne Fukujin, Nanamin gave me a lot of help. I am very grateful to her. It is also necessary to make a cake."

"What gift did Manasuma prepare?"

"Book."

"Most of the members choose to send books."

"Well, I went to the bookstore to choose it, and Nanamin should like it. How about Ruoyue-kun?"

"Me?" Ruoyue smiled, then pulled Manasumer to the bag place, and took out a box.

"This is?" Manazu had seen Wakazuki's ocarina practice in Tokyo, but she had never seen the ocarina made by Wakazuki herself.

"This is the ocarina I made."

"You gave this to Nanamin?"

"Well, Nanamin said at that time that she wanted to learn the ocarina, so I gave her one before. Although I didn't know how she was learning, but seeing her at the time, I really liked the ocarina, so this time For her 20th birthday, I plan to give her this."

"Ruoyue-kun's gifts are so special."

"It's only for one special birthday. Have you ever seen me give anything special on Valentine's Day?"

"That's not true, it's all chocolate, very earthy, haha~"

"Like where are you going?"

"Okay, okay, everyone is the same."

Manatsu also took out a gift from her bag, and went to give Hashimoto a gift with Wakazuki.

Hashimoto didn't unwrap the presents in front of everyone. After all, this is a rehearsal site, and there will be a rehearsal later, so everyone made a little fuss and passed away, and such a large number of gifts can only make Hashimoto's The assistant helped to send it home.

The next day, the members were going to visit the Budokan site. Although they had visited more than once, this time it belonged to their concert, and the backstage also belonged to them. They had to understand the entire structure so that the rehearsal could proceed smoothly.

After walking dozens of times before and after, the members left one after another. Thinking that the concert will be held tomorrow, they were all a little excited. Like Mai Mai and the others, they simply got together again, saying that it was for the concert, rehearsal in advance or something .

Ruoyue didn't get involved, these few nights, she had prepared enough time for herself to rest.

"If you walk so fast, what are you doing?" Ruoyue just walked to the exit when she heard Hashimoto's voice behind her.

"Aren't Nanamin going to La Ling's house?"

"We only played together last night, so let's take a break today."

"Too."

"I want to walk home, if you want to walk with me?" Zha Ben asked.

Ruoyue nodded, she also wanted to know whether Hashimoto liked the gift she gave yesterday, if she liked it, it would be great.

"The afternoon before yesterday, my mother and my brother came to Tokyo."

"Really? Don't say anything. I would have visited the day before yesterday."

"No need, everyone is busy now, so I won't talk about it."

"Really, Nanamin, this is a necessary etiquette, are you going back now?"

"Well, don't be angry, my mother means the same, don't bother you."

"How is auntie now? Are you still used to it?"

"Not bad, the family is in Sapporo, and the conditions are much better than Asahikawa."

"That's good."

"Oh, by the way, although I didn't tell you, my mother brought you something, look!" Hashimoto took out a box and handed it to Ruoyue.

"what?"

"Fortune cookie?"

"This is made by my mother herself. The notes inside are all written by my mother herself. You must pay attention when you eat~"

Ruoyue nodded, and put away the cookies.

"Thank you, auntie, I have brought these all the way. But, speaking of presents, birthday presents, do you still like them?"

Speaking of the gift, Hashimoto changed his face, Ruoyue didn't know whether Hashimoto liked it or not, but Hashimoto smiled at the end, "When, let me blow it to you."

"Eh? Is Nanamin practicing?"

"Didn't I learn from you? You have never read textbooks and practiced musical instruments in front of us, but you can do everything. Don't think that I don't practice in front of you, just think that I can't. I haven't given up on the things I am interested in. Pass."

"That's good. I really hesitated for a long time. It's Nanamin's most important birthday. I don't know what to give. I knew you liked this ocarina before, and this ocarina means a lot to me. Holding it Si hopes that Nanamin can take good care of it, make good use of her, and feel my heart."

"What do you think?"

"Well, Nanamin is a very important person to me. This ocarina has different meanings to you and me. The teacher told me that this ocarina belongs to my "Hometown Original Scenery" , Nanamin is interested in Ocarina because of it, and I always feel that there is a special fate in the dark, I want to convey this feeling to you, and now I feel that it is really great to send it out."

Hashimoto looked at Ruoyue's sincere eyes, and turned his head a little embarrassedly, "I understand, so after I received it, I also felt it, so today, I also want to say thank you specially."

"Didn't you already thank me yesterday~"

"It's different. Yesterday's thank you is completely different from today's thank you. Yesterday was thank you for giving me a gift, but today is thank you for your heart."

"Is there any difference?" It seems different to say it, but to Ruoyue, it's all the same.

"How about going this way?"

"Ah."

"Isn't this the way to your house?"

"Eh... this..." Ruoyue didn't know whether she should tell Hashimoto, but sooner or later everyone would know about her going back to the dormitory, and since Hashimoto asked, Ruoyue would not lie, "I I don't live there anymore."

"Eh? Why haven't I heard you mention it?"

"This kind of thing doesn't have to be loud, right?"

"That's what I said, but you have to tell us no matter what, if you don't say it, I want to go to your house at that time, and it's so frustrating to go to the wrong place."

"That was my fault."

"Okay, there is still time now, let's go to your house to see the way."

"You don't have to admit it, it's our dormitory."

"Dormitory? Did you go back to the dormitory?" Hashimoto was a little surprised.

"Ah."

"You live alone in that place, aren't you afraid?"

"A few adjustments have been made. Living alone is still passable."

Hashimoto has lived in a dormitory alone, so he knows what the situation is like at night. Although it is very safe, he always feels a little nervous in his heart, and the feeling of coldness is still lingering, so he crossed Wakazuki, "Hurry up , I want to see how you live in the dormitory."

Ruoyue stopped in her tracks, but when she saw Hashimoto's back, she still couldn't help sighing, and followed quickly, "Nanamin, wait for me."
