Chapter 273

"Are you still feeling unwell? You should go to the hospital for a checkup!"

"Let's go home for today and get some rest!"

"..."

He explained to them one by one with a stiff expression, and it took him five minutes to convince them to leave.

In the end, only the three people sitting next to him remained in the room.

"Little Asahi, what exactly is this...?"

Miyako Shizuka asked hesitantly.

The other two also attracted attention.

"It's a congenital condition. It happens occasionally, and it'll be fine after a while. It's nothing to worry about."

He smiled dismissively and reassured them, "Alright, let's go back to class. Sorry for the trouble."

"At a time like this, what's the point of saying anything more?"

Shiina Rikki frowned, dissatisfied with his so-called attitude.

Hachiman Kairin nodded with her arms crossed. "Soo-soo, we're happy for you to skip class if it's legal, so don't worry about it."

"A congenital disease... is it incurable?"

Hearing this term, Miyako Shizuka felt heavy-hearted.

"It couldn't be cured before, but recently we've finally found a way, although the method is a bit unusual..."

"Whatever the method, if it works, of course you should accept the treatment!"

"Yes, I think so too."

"Be a good boy and accept your treatment, Little Asahi ~"

"Really... you all think so?"

Ogura Asahi's eyes twitched, suppressing the thoughts that were about to spill out.

"Certainly!"

X 3.

"I see..."

After a pause, he nodded firmly, "I understand, I will accept the 'treatment' properly!"

"That's a good child."

Miyako Shizuka stepped forward and held his head in her arms, gently stroking his hair.

"..."

In the end, he didn't go to the hospital, making the ambulance make a wasted trip.

Back in the classroom, everyone looked at him differently. The admiration, respect, shyness, and appreciation they once held were now tinged with pity.

Stop! Don't look at me like that!!

The commotion was so big that the news quickly spread throughout the entire campus.

One by one, tragic yet inspiring tales of beautiful women with tragic fates, ill-fated lives, and premature deaths, bringing tears to the eyes... were born (or fabricated).

He clearly suffered from a serious illness since childhood, yet he still chose to fight bravely, study hard, and work diligently, all to prove that he was no less capable than others...

The reason he often skips class is because he is physically weak, frequently falls ill, and needs to go to the hospital for checkups and quiet recuperation...

The reason he sleeps in class is because one of the accompanying symptoms of his illness is excessive sleepiness, etc...

Thus, following "the Ghostly Silver Phantom" and "the inviolable Three Emperors," Ogura Asahi secretly gained another title. "the Silver-Haired Sleeping Beauty."

"Sorry to bother you~"

After knocking and receiving permission, Ogura Asahi pushed open the door to the Student Council Room.

"Hey? Little Asahi! It's you!"

Toyama Kasumi looked at him as he arrived and exclaimed in surprise, "It's been a long time!"

Ichigaya Arisa, standing next to her, retorted, "It hasn't been that long... Wait, why are you still here?"

"I heard you fainted this morning and they even called an ambulance. Why are you still at school?"

"Huh?! Was the ambulance called this morning for Little Asahi?"

Toyama Kasumi ran over worriedly and checked him over. "Are you alright? If you're sick, you should go home and rest right away."

"It's alright, Kasumi-senpai, I'm all better now."

Helpless, he turned her around, straightened her, and sent her back to her seat, where he sat down in the same spot as before.

"Real?"

"Really, really, I'm used to it."

"No, you have to get used to that..."

The old wife "stops the temple"? Qi Shiwu? VI Yueyi? Ichigaya Arisa smiled bitterly.

"If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, don't push yourself, Asahi!"

Beside him, Tsurumaki Kokoro's expression was calm and serious, her golden eyes deep and peaceful, unusually devoid of a smile.

But the next second, she was back to normal, stood up, struck a pose, and cheerfully winked and licked her lips. "Only by maintaining good health can you always be happy, smile!"

"That's right!"

Toyama Kasumi expressed her strong agreement.

"So, after you finish eating, you should go home. Don't attend your morning classes."

"That's right!"

"Are you a broken record?!"

Ichigaya Arisa tapped her with her hand.

It's rare for Xin to say something serious.

Okusawa Misaki wiped the corner of her eye with a handkerchief, feeling relieved.

"..."

Facing the calm yet unfathomable gaze of Tsurumaki Kokoro, Ogura Asahi felt a little intimidated.

"I understand. I will do so after we finish eating."

"Yes! Good Child, Good Child!"

Tsurumaki Kokoro patted his head with satisfaction.

"..."

Why do you all like patting heads? That's enough!

"Ah! That's right! Little Asahi!"

Toyama Kasumi had a sudden inspiration, and looked at him expectantly. "It's... that... that one..."

Ichigaya Arisa stared at her coldly. The moment Arisa turned her star-shaped hairstyle, she knew what she was going to say and added, "It's about the dessert from last time. Do you have any new ones?"

Hehehe~

Toyama Kasumi scratched the back of her head sheepishly.

"Ah..."

Ogura Asahi paused, realizing he'd forgotten about that. "Sorry, I forgot today..."

"Eh~!!!"

"That's enough! Your junior is sick, and you're asking her this? Don't you feel embarrassed?"

"Sobbing~ Because, because it's really delicious!"

"Well... that's true."

"Sorry, Kasumi-senpai, I forgot today, but if you don't mind, I'll have lunch instead."

"May I?!"

"What's our relationship? Don't be so polite!"

"Thank you! This is delicious too!"

"Hey, Kasumi, you..."

"Arisa -senpai doesn't mind, please come along too."

"..."

Chapter 316: Gifts that are more bizarre than the last.

After the lunch break, following Tsurumaki Kokoro's instructions, he obediently left the school.

Of course, even if she hadn't said anything, he was already planning to leave, because he had other things to do in the afternoon.

"This is so difficult! I have to sing each line so many times, and it seems like they also need to do audio editing and tuning afterwards? I didn't expect professional production to be this difficult."

In the dedicated song recording studio, after several hours of hard work, Kogisora Yukina, looking frail and delicate, lay on her side on a rest chair and complained tearfully to Sakurakoji Talent.

Even though she can sing all day without getting tired, she's much more exhausted than usual after being here for so long.

The constant tension and high pressure are completely different from the usual carefree joy.

"Because the recording equipment here is very sensitive, even the slightest flaw will be amplified many times over, which is unavoidable."

Sakurakoji Talent explained to her, then looked to the side.

"Speaking of which, it's one thing for Yukina to come, but why did you come along today too?"

"..."

Touma Kazusa sat with her legs crossed Hands clasped in front of her, silently observing their efforts.

"Isn't it okay if I just come along to take a look?"

"Hmph~ Hmm~ Didn't you say you were going to study hard?"

"... It's okay if I don't go for half a day."

"You're so lazy, that's why you're not doing well in your studies!"

"Hey! You're almost done..."

"Well, Kazusa is interested in this place just like me. It's best if we're all together!"

Kogisora Yukina tried to smooth things over.

"Don't mind her, I was just kidding, Yukina. I just wanted to tease her a little, because it's more fun that way."

"You...!"

Touma Kazusa stomped her foot, looking like she was about to turn red.

Sakurakoji Talent smiled and didn't provoke her further.

This afternoon, his plan was to bring Kogisora Yukina to this professional recording studio to record albums and online electronic songs.

Because it was her first time here, he had to come along.

By the way, he had already recorded the songs he was going to sing beforehand; he wasn't as leisurely as the others.

In fact, this step is necessary not only for game music, but also for bands when uploading new songs online or producing CDs.

Not only do we need to rent a professional performance studio, but we also need to hire a professional recording engineer. The salary of the sound engineer alone will cost at least tens or hundreds of thousands of yen a week.

Therefore, for ordinary bands without a record label, producing high-quality audio is a huge challenge...

Especially for singers or musicians who have little experience at the beginning, it's hard to imagine how many mistakes they will make and how much time they will waste before they can complete their first recording.

It's good that Touma Kazusa is with her; otherwise, if he doesn't have time later, and Kogisora Yukina keeps making mistakes due to nervousness, it will delay the progress.
