I.W.B.A.L

　　Four banknotes, one for five thousand yen and three for one thousand yen, were sandwiched in the reply letter. As soon as they were taken out, they fell into the hands of Kento.

　　I took a look at the reply, and the general content was that my article was adopted, and the weekly magazine was also sent to me when it was published. I hope that he can submit high-quality content to the other party's magazine next time. That's all.

　　"It's nice to be adopted, but it's rare."

　　He remembered that when his work was first accepted, he received a fee of 10,000 yen. But now it's only 8,000 yen?

　　"Is it because the time is different and the price is lower now? Or is it simply because they see that I'm a newcomer?"

　　He silently put 8,000 yen into his wallet. No matter what the situation was, at least his living expenses would not be so tight. But unfortunately, he probably would not give it to the other party again.

　　"Talk to Miss Wu as soon as possible, and then improve what you wrote before and submit it to those adult publishing houses. The money you can earn will at least be more than these small articles."

　　Compared with short articles that require careful creation, it is much easier for Kento to write short stories for adults. It can be said that he writes with divine power.

　　When he was dating Sayuri, she taught him a lot of positions that he didn't even know. Which made Kento feel shocked and doubtful for a while. Then he learned from Sayuri that she had only seen them in Eriri's comics and never had the chance to try them.

　　She was at an age when she was as vigorous as a wolf and tiger. After meeting Kento, she vented all her emotions at once. All the special skills that she had memorized in her mind were unsealed and applied to Kento.

　　During that time, he was a young man, only twenty years old, and he felt weak even when he walked.

　　It was precisely because of this that he accumulated a lot of rich experience, which he invested in his later writing. Therefore, every time he wrote these plots and works, he felt it was quite simple and he could easily handle it no matter what the subject matter was.

　　For example, in themes about high school girls, Sayuri has worn clothes that Eriri doesn't wear more than once.

　　As for roles like young and gentle wives, she is even more adept at them.

　　When Eriri is not at home, she would even ask Kento to pretend to be the postman, and then after opening the door,... ahem.

　　Recalling those memories, Kento coughed, and felt that it was not a good idea to continue recalling them, so he casually put the magazine in front of him aside, took out the manuscript paper and pen from his drawer, and began to prepare to write his new work.

　　However, this time he was not going to continue writing about those memories related to Sayuri. He planned to write some lighter content to test the waters first.

　　When the doorbell rang, Kento was sitting at his desk thinking. He suddenly felt that light subject matter did not seem to be suitable for him. After writing a few hundred words at the beginning, he hit a bottleneck and didn't know how to continue writing.

　　He couldn't help but want to write something with a heavier taste, but when he thought about the topic he had decided on this time, he reluctantly put down his pen and fell into deep thought for a long time.

　　When he heard the doorbell, he came back to his senses, looked down at his manuscript paper, silently tidied it up, put it back in his drawer, and slowly walked towards the entrance.

　　When he opened the door, the people standing at the door included Setsuna, Sekai Saionji, whom he saw almost every morning, and Kotonoha Katsura who was also standing aside. The three of them appeared at the door of his apartment.

　　"That's really surprising. I thought it was just Setsuna... Is there something wrong?"

　　"I have a lot of time after school and I don't know what to do, so I came to visit Kento. Is that okay?"

　　Looking at the person standing in the front, which was right in front of him, there was nothing particularly important, so Kento nodded in agreement and let the three of them enter his house.

　　"Well, excuse me."

　　When Sekai Saionji saw that Kento agreed, she smiled and entered Kento's room.

　　As for Katsura Yanye, she followed the two of them shyly. When passing by Kento, she bowed and greeted him politely before following him into the house.

　　Okay, I added more.

Cherry Blossom Season: 66. Big or small?

　　He poured tea and handed it to the three girls. Kento did not sit with the three girls. Instead, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the clear sky outside, silently pulled open the gauze curtain, and opened the window a little.

　　Looking back at the three girls sitting in the room, just when Kento was considering whether he should step away a little, Setsuna gently patted the seat next to her, motioning Kento to sit next to her.

　　After looking at Setsuna, and then at Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai who didn't seem to mind, Kento came to Setsuna and sat down next to his girlfriend.

　　With her head lowered, Katsura Kotonoha's eyes slightly shifted to Saionji Sekai beside her. She found that the girl's expression was natural, and she didn't react to the intimate behavior of Setsuna and Kento. This made Katsura Kotonoha a little confused, and she looked at Kento on the other side of her.

　　I don't know why this boy has won the hearts of two of my new friends in high school.

　　Her eyes fell on Kento, but she noticed that the boy next to her also moved his eyes slightly, as if he noticed something, and looked towards her. Their eyes met, and Gui Yanye's face suddenly turned red. She was caught while peeking, and her heart was filled with shame.

　　Noticing that Katsura Kotono was observing him, Kento was also a little surprised, but when he looked at the girl, he found that she suddenly lowered her head because of shyness, so he withdrew his gaze.

　　Sekai Saionji, who was sitting opposite Kento, lowered her head and looked at the teacup in front of her, but she was always paying attention to the reactions of everyone in the room out of the corner of her eyes.

　　As for the 'little interaction' between Kento and Katsura Kotonoha, it also fell into the eyes of Saionji Sekai. She glanced at Setsuna quietly and found that the girl was drinking tea silently and didn't seem to care much. But when she felt that the atmosphere became a little subtle, she was the first to speak and broke the silence.

　　"It seems that my visit today was a little sudden. I don't know if I disturbed Miyamizu-kun. I'm really sorry."

　　Just as he was wondering whether he should find an excuse to leave for a while because his presence had affected the girls' normal communication, Saionji Sekai, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly spoke. Kento gradually came back to his senses from his thoughts. He looked at the girls' apologetic expressions and shook his head.

　　"Of course not. I believe you can see that I don't have any entertainment here. I didn't know what to do. Then you guys happened to come. It made my quiet room a little more lively."

　　"Do something?"

　　Saionji Sekai's eyes wandered for a moment, and her gaze suddenly fell on Setsuna. She lowered her head to glance at the plumpness in front of her, but no Kento came to do anything to her, which made her silent for a moment. Her heart was suddenly filled with frustration, and she fell into autism.

　　The sudden silence, as if the Saionji world that was telling dirty jokes before the silence, made Kento a little confused for a moment. He looked at the girl for a moment, then looked at Setsuna beside him, wondering if his girlfriend knew something.

　　However, Setsuna just sipped the tea in the cup gently with an expression of complete indifference, which made Kento helpless. He thought that with Saionji Sekai's personality, she would not be depressed for too long, so she just didn't care.

　　His eyes fell on Gui Yanye and he asked her questions.

　　"Teacher Gui should have a younger sister at home, right?"

　　"Eh, well, I have a 10-year-old sister named Guixin. Is there any...problem?"

　　I don't know why Qingura Setsuna's boyfriend suddenly turned the topic to me. Katsura Yanye answered truthfully, looking at Kento beside her with confusion.

　　"Is she home alone?"

　　"No, my mom is away for a while and doesn't have much work, so my sister is being taken care of by her. It seems that we are going to go to the Ocean Amusement Park together today."

　　There was a moment of silence. After Gui Yanye finished her answer, the other three people sitting in the living room all remained silent.

　　Saionji Sekai also turned around, blinked and glanced at Katsura Kotonoha, her eyes fell on Kento, she couldn't help but chuckle, and began to shift the topic back to Kento.

　　"Miyamizu-kun, you suddenly asked about Kotonoha's sister. Are you interested in Kotonoha's sister?"

　　As soon as he finished speaking, Shanna's gaze fell on Saionji Sekai. Although he knew in his heart that Saionji Sekai was just joking, he still felt a little unhappy. Then his gaze fell on Kento, waiting for his answer.

　　"Hmm? A little bit. At 10 years old, she is 4 years older than Yotsuba. I wonder if Yotsuba can become friends with Katsura's sister if she comes to Tokyo. I'm a little curious about this."

　　"Well."

　　Saionji Sekai was speechless. For a moment, he did not expect that Kento would be thinking about his sister.

　　"friend...."

　　After hearing what Kento said, Gui Yanye was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Kento would consider this issue. But then she thought about her sister's natural and cheerful personality, which was different from hers.

　　"We can become good friends, right?"

　　"That would be great."

　　The topic gradually opened up, and when talking about sisters, Saionji Sekai began to express that she wished to have a younger sister, and led the topic to Setsuna, feeling that Setsuna was very much like her sister.

　　In response, Setsuna did not agree. He just looked at the Saionji World with a calm gaze for a while and gave a negative answer.

　　"I don't want a sister like this in the world."

　　"Wow—"

　　Saionji Sekai was covering her plump chest with a painful expression on her face. Kento's sight could not help but be attracted by the size of her chest that was barely covered by her hands. He took a look and noticed Setsuna's gaze at the side, who was also looking at him. He then silently withdrew his gaze and looked down at the teacup in front of him. His face was reflected by the clear tea.

　　Although he also wanted to control his vision, things in this regard were not completely under his rational control.

　　By the time I realized that I shouldn't have looked, several seconds had already passed, and there was nothing I could do about these few seconds. Unless I had been mentally prepared, it was just a subconscious instinct.

　　Kento looked at the teacup and no longer looked at Saionji World. As for Shanta, who was standing next to him, seeing that Kento no longer looked at Saionji World, he slowly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and looked in front of him. After a moment of silence, he turned his head to look at Saionji World, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes.

　　"As expected, you still like big ones?"

　　Even though Kento had told her that he didn't care about these things and asked her not to take them too seriously, judging from Kento's instinctive reaction, he didn't seem to care that much.

　　Her gaze fell on Sekai Saionji and Kotonoha Katsura. Looking at the two people who were more developed than her, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

　　"Speaking of which, how is your homework on weekdays? Is it a lot?"

　　Suddenly raising his head, Kento's eyes fell on the three girls and he asked them about their schoolwork. Generally speaking, normal people would not talk about this after school, but Kento was not a normal person.

　　The moment the words were spoken, Saionji Sekai's expression was subtle. She looked at Kento and it seemed that she had not expected that he would bring up such a topic for a moment. When she was in school, studying alone was already very tiring. She didn't expect that they would talk about this after school.

　　However, because the person who asked the question was Kento, Saionji Sekai did not just give a perfunctory answer. Instead, he thought about it carefully and gave a not very accurate answer.

　　"It's okay. Although I have some homework, I can basically finish it before going to bed every day. It may be because the school has just started, so there is not much homework."

　　Sakakino Academy is not a school with a low deviation value. Most of the students in Sakakino Academy aim to go to college. For example, Katsura Kotonoha entered Sakakino Academy because of her goal of going to college.

　　Just looking at the deviation value, Sakakino Academy is even slightly higher than Toyonosaki Academy.

　　"Does Miyamizu-kun have a lot of schoolwork?"

　　"Not a lot, just a little curious, huh."

　　If possible, Kento would like someone to tutor him in his studies. Even when he was in school, he had studied very hard and had recalled most of the knowledge and memories. However, it was still far from enough to aim for Waseda University.

　　I don't have enough living expenses to go to a private school now, so I have to wait for a while. After I have enough living expenses... I still have to ask Qingura Mai for help first.

　　Kento fell into silence all of a sudden, as if he was thinking seriously about something. Saionji Sekai was also speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

　　Because of the presence of the boy Kento, some overly private topics were not convenient to talk about, so the group just started chatting again about the topic they had just learned. It was at this time that Kento found out that Setsuna was the class representative of the Student Union at school.

　　About an hour passed, Gui Yanye looked at the clear sky outside the window and suddenly stood up.

　　"Well, it's almost time for me to go home. Can I leave first?"

　　Seeing Katsura Kotonoha suddenly standing up, Saionji Sekai thought that the girl had something anxious, so she nodded, glanced at Setsuna beside her, and also stood up.

　　"Well, it's almost time. Since Kotonoha is leaving, I should go home early as well so as not to disturb your time alone."

　　With a smile, Sekai Saionji said goodbye to Setsuna and Kento, and walked towards the door with Kotonoha.

　　"Then let's go to school together tomorrow morning."

　　"Um."

　　Setsuna responded and watched Saionji Sekai's figure disappear into the apartment. The door was closed, and there were only two people left in the room. Setsuna looked at Kento standing beside him.

　　"Kento, I just saw the world."

　　".....Um?"

　　"chest."

　　"Ah, that seems to be the case."

　　After Saionji Sekai left, only the two of them were left in the room. Setsuna could no longer bear it, and a look of loss flashed in his clear eyes.

　　"Sure enough, Kento still likes bigger ones?"

　　Speechless for a moment, looking at the depressed girl beside him, Kento couldn't help but reach out and gently rub his forehead, thinking about how to comfort the girl beside him. After a moment's silence, he gave an affirmative answer.

　　"I like her, but I don't just like the big one. I like Setsuna as well. I saw Saionji before just because I was curious for a moment, driven by instinct. It's like seeing a cute cat or a cute dog. They belong to the same category. It doesn't mean I have any idea about Saionji."

　　"I'm sorry, Kento, mine is... not big."

　　Setsuna lowered his head, and his lost tone gave Kento a headache for a moment.

　　Looking at the girl beside him, Kento stood up and walked directly to Setsuna's side. He stretched out his hands and pressed Setsuna to the ground, looking at Setsuna under him.

　　Looking down at the stunned girl beneath him, Kento stared into her eyes.

　　"But my girlfriend is you, Setsuna."

　　"Wan, Ren..."

　　Out of consideration for Setsuna's body, Kento didn't do anything to Setsuna. He just told Setsuna to stop thinking too much and then loosened his arms. But Setsuna suddenly wrapped herself around Kento and hugged him tightly with both hands, making it difficult for Kento to move for a while.

　　After calming the girl, Kento started talking about dinner, which allowed Setsuna to loosen his arms and allowed Kento to regain his freedom.

　　"I'm going to prepare dinner, Setsuna, just rest in the living room."

　　"I can help."

　　"No, I'm just going to prepare some simpler dishes tonight."

　　Letting Setsuna stay in the living room, Kento came to the refrigerator, looked at the remaining ingredients, and began to prepare dinner. As for Setsuna, she looked at Kento who was starting to get busy, and sat quietly in the living room, watching Kento busying himself, her eyes full of love.

　　When you like someone, you feel full of joy just by looking at him/her.

　　Kento noticed Setsuna's gaze, but didn't care and quietly prepared dinner.

　　Just like last time, he didn't just prepare dinner for himself and Setsuna, he also prepared one specifically for Kiyoura Mai, so that if she came back, they could have dinner together.
