Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 223 Harmony Rhapsody

   "Although I think this level is just ordinary, but the minister cried to me about too many lines and superficial things like the exaggerated script."

   Facing Shi Yu who said these things calmly, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but glance at the group of students on the stage.

   All you can see is a group of people who are haggard, enjoying a moment of peace, and their faces are filled with the joy of the rest of their lives.

   It's hard to describe that look, it's almost as if the word "miserable" was engraved on his face.

   So he moved his mouth and said, "I think that the reason why the girls in the minister were crying should be more than that, but are their performances really that bad?"

   "I should be surprised to say that as well."

Shi Yu, who frowned slightly, pushed back the hair that was draped over her shoulders with a frown, "Obviously he is a member of the drama club, but he can't even tell the main points of knowledge on how to highlight the tension. It turns out that these high school campuses Is the cultural club here just a kind of fan club like playing at home?"

   With the sound of "slap la la", the script paper tube in his hand finally couldn't bear any more beatings, and it fell apart in an instant.

   And the girl didn't panic at all.

   In Kato Yusuke's eyes, I saw that the other party skillfully took out a brand new script from the shoulder bag, and then put away the scattered one.

   The whole set of movements is natural and smooth, and at a glance, you can tell that it is not the first time that you have done it.

   also made him very intuitively aware of the extent to which the so-called "script is too thick and exaggerated", which is probably the thickness of a textbook of "Selected Mandarin Collection", with at least hundreds of pages at a glance.

  's eyelids couldn't help but jump, "...It's called "Rhapsody of Harmony", right, how long did it take you to write this script?"

   "Hmm... to be honest, I can't remember exactly. I originally took this errand to pass the time. It was a relaxation after writing novels, but the time period may have been slightly wrong."

   "What is the period?"

   "The Deadline and Serialization of the Novel."

   Shi Yu took a sip of coffee and leaned his seat towards Kato Yusuke, "Hey, Kato-kun. Do you remember when we first met...?"

  The images of the past began to appear before my eyes.

   The hallway filled with orange-red light, the script scattered on the ground, the indoor shoe that had fallen off, and the graceful and graceful figure.

   Kato Yusuke nodded lightly: "Well, it's in the stairwell. I just came out of the art room and accidentally bumped into the senior who just went upstairs."

   "Hehe... Really, it's really a memorable experience for a girl who meets for the first time."

   "First time, deep memory, experience... These words don't need to be accented at all, senpai."

   Gently raised his hand to brush off the ups and downs on his legs, making the translucent black pantyhose emit a subtle rustling sound, and a faint warm luster glowed under the light.

   Shi Yu teased slightly: "What's the matter, have you been so excited that your heart is rippling?"

   "Not at all, it's better to say that this kind of teasing will only make people feel disturbed."

   "Trick...well, you are a bit boring and incomprehensible sometimes, Kato-kun."

   Kato Yusuke frowned and looked at her, only to see that the girl lifted her chin slightly and drank the coffee in her hand, revealing the fair and slender neck, her skin was translucent and delicate.

  The vermilion lips cling to the body of the metal can and create a visual wetness under the reflection of the light, with a slight languid look.

   "Although I prefer the brewed one, thank you for the coffee." Shi Yu, who put down the empty can, turned his attention to the stage.

   "Then, five minutes are up, let's continue with the thirty-first rehearsal."

   A paper tube rolled up with a brand-new script, knocked out a clear sound again, clearly indicating the end of the rest time.

   Then there was a sigh-like discussion on the stage.

   "...Wow, that's already the fifth script, so how many copies did she prepare...?"

   "And how much force does it take to smash this, it's so scary, so scary..."

   "Haah... Sure enough, I still can't escape..."

  …

   For these complaints, Shi Yu stared at the script in his hand as if he could not hear it at all, and continued to mark some important places with a pen, with a serious and focused expression.

   glanced alternately at the two sides on the stage and off the stage, Kato Yusuke said: "And about the student council, Shiyu-senpai, you..."

   "Sorry, not now."

The    girl shook her head: "We'll talk about anything later."

   Starting with this sentence, Shi Yu's temperament began to change. And Yusuke Kato also saw the horror side of the other party as a writer for the first time.

   In the next two hours of practice, the actual plot shown is only about 10% of the entire script, but it has been stopped for various reasons.

   "Didn't I tell you not to tie your mouth...!"

   "I've been asking for it since a while ago, to be sure to grasp the rhythm and timing of the speech."

   "Pay attention to the moment when the opponent's heart beats, and take the initiative to show the impact of the lines at that time!"

   "There is still a lack of emotional expression that should almost be filled. Are you really members of the drama club?"

   and so on, I don't know whether to say advice or rebuke words echoed in the arena one after another.

   Even the air seemed to smell of gunpowder.

  During this process, Shi Yu did not shout or give personal guidance, she would not express herself in such an eye-catching way.

   However, the girl will never allow slight differences or rhythm errors in the performance, so she will insist on repeated practice by the actors until the play can be performed to her satisfaction.

   Even if the members refuted those too subtle and tough demands, Shi Yu would never compromise. Instead, he will point out the flaws in those people's acting skills one by one in a low voice and viciously, as well as their shallow understanding of the script and the lack of basic skills.

But both in terms of vocabulary and experience, these actors who only have experience in high school clubs are naturally no match for business writers who have won the title of newcomer of the publishing house. In the end, they can only be frustrated and return one after another. .

   This situation caused Yusuke Kato, who was beside him, to look sideways for a while. He wanted to say something several times, but his mouth was closed again.

   Until a certain moment…

   "No...!"

   Accompanied by a silent muttering full of anger from a certain devil scriptwriter, the balance of a certain limit was finally broken at this time.

   "One more time, keep going."

  When the cold voice spread, the scene was quiet at first, then—

   "I'm sorry, I still can't do it...! Thank you for your continued care, but...bye!"

   A boy wearing a second-year school badge suddenly stood up and said loudly, and then he carried his schoolbag and walked outside without saying a word, completely ignoring the retention of the people around him, and his steps were very decisive.

   Looking at the back of him leaving, someone couldn't help but whispered: "Ahh... this is already the third person, it's just a performance at the cultural festival. Is it really necessary to be so strict?"

  Everyone was silent for a while, and the expressions on their faces were different.

   On the other hand, Shi Yu didn't seem to be affected at all, and just calmly arranged for the rest of the students to replace that person.

   "...then that's it, remember what I just said, and then continue." The girl flipping the script wrote lightly.

   The students on the stage looked at each other for a while, but no one spoke, but at the same time, they did not show the same cooperative posture as before.

  The only girl present reacted to Shi Yu's words and walked out of the crowd. It's just that it's not cooperation, but an angry question.

   "Looking at what you said, I want to ask you, are you capable of playing such a role?" The girl with her arms crossed her chest said, her eyes full of anger as if it were real.

   'Did it develop to this stage in the end...' Kato Yusuke sighed in his heart, but he couldn't make him ignore this scene.

It is said that interpersonal relationships are a fragile and fragile thing, which is obviously illusory and ethereal, and can sweep the vast majority of people into it. operate under the rules.

   And Shi Yu is like the kind of person standing outside the circle, always carrying a belief in himself, showing high and tenacity. Even in the eyes of others, she would only find her too evil to be approached, and it would not have any effect on her in the slightest.

   Even though the girl's character is dark and vicious, Kato Yusuke still appreciates her highness.

   But just when he was about to say something, Shi Yu, who was questioned, responded one step ahead of him.

   "Yes, you ask me if I have the ability to play the character I wrote."

   The girl who put down the script in her hand raised her eyes to look at the stage, and said lightly, "Well, I can act as long as I want."

   As if deterred by the strong self-confidence in his eyes, the girls on the stage couldn't help but pause for a while, and then continued: "It's so easy to say, then you should try it!"

   "Try it...?"

   Shi Yu gently raised her hand to her chin, her eyes first looked around the stage, and then turned to her side. As if thinking of something, a deep smile appeared on her face.

   "It's not impossible, then I'll show you a little bit and see."

   Kato Yusuke pointed to the stage: "...You are talking about the wrong person, Shiyu-senpai."

   "Hey, Kato-kun... No, President~"

  The girl was noncommittal about this, and the smile on her face became more obvious, "My subordinates encounter difficulties, I think as the president, you shouldn't sit back and watch, right?"

   His eyelids twitched quickly, and Kato Yusuke felt an ominous premonition in his heart, and then he said warmly, "Although I don't want to think so, but Senpai, shouldn't you...?"

   "Haha, that's it, shouldn't it?"

   "...The problem is that I can't act, and I can't do it to the level that senpai asked."

   "There's no need to worry about this, because the person who wants to demonstrate is me, you just need to cooperate with me to read the lines."

   "...just like this??"

   "Well, that's all it takes."

   "In that case not any of the above..."

   "Hey - President."

   The beautiful face quickly approached, "So you'll help?"

  “…”

   "Absolutely, will you help~?"

  “…”

   An inexplicable sense of oppression came over me.

   "This tone is really not suitable for you, Shiyu-senpai." - Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke, who sighed, decided to tell the truth, because he really didn't think he could play a good opponent.

At this moment…

   "Speaking of which, it's not good for you to help in vain, so this matter should be included in today's overtime pay."

  “?”

   Hearing this, Kato Yusuke shook his head slowly, "Sorry, senpai, but I really don't have much experience in this area."

   "Is that so..."

   The light in Shi Yu's eyes dimmed immediately, but he still nodded slightly to show his understanding.

   But then, a faint voice sounded in his ears immediately.

   "But I can learn..."

  …

   Thanks to 【Aredhel】for the tip.
