Chapter 44 Mana's Rabbit Smile
Even after finishing dinner and returning home, Miyazawa Maki still hadn't figured out what to ask Sawayama Haruno to do.
Apart from the impact on Miyazawa Mana, there were still too many choices for her to make, and she couldn't decide at all for the time being.
She simply went home, took a shower, and sent all the photos to Mana first.
In less than a moment, nearly twenty photos were sent to the other party, and the shooting angle of each photo was carefully selected by Maki Miyazawa.
There were even two photos taken from under the dining table, in which she captured herself wearing black stockings and tentatively touching Sawayama Haruno's calf.
Of course, there was no actual touching, but the implication in the photo was enough to make people imagine something, and it doesn't require actual contact to lead to misunderstanding.
"Done."
Looking at the photos on the phone, Maki Miyazawa showed a smug expression.
She didn't even bother to say anything. These photos were enough to deal a heavy blow to Mana.
I just don't know if that guy Sawayama Haruno has explained it to Mana.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look up and glance at Sawayama Haruno who was coming back from the balcony collecting clothes.
The other person's face was calm and no expression could be seen.
"what happened?"
As if he noticed the look that Miyazawa Maki was giving him, Sawayama Haruno, who had just put away his clothes and was about to go to the bathroom, became a little puzzled.
"nothing."
Miyazawa Maki rolled her eyes, put her little feet on the living table, and continued to play with her phone while wandering around.
Confused, Sawayama Haruno didn't think much about it and quickly went into the bathroom.
After changing the water in the bathtub, he stood under the shower and began to bathe, but his mind was filled with other thoughts.
"Improving my skills should also improve my writing skills."
Sawayama Haruno put some shampoo on his head, and while doing so, he began to think about his plan to plagiarize as part of his long-term mission.
Although I haven't acquired the ability to enhance my memory yet, my skills are not bad either. It's time to start preparing to make money.
He estimated that with his enhanced writing skills, even if he couldn't restore the copied work in its entirety, he should be able to get close, or even surpass it.
So which one should I copy first?
If he had to say one, it would undoubtedly be "Norwegian Wood".
On the one hand, it is because this book is the most impressive novel of his besides Keigo Higashino's stupid "Secret".
On the other hand, this book is extremely popular, with one in every six to seven Japanese people having read it.
Such an achievement can be regarded as a popular and best-selling book in the island country. After all, this place is different from the country in Sawayama Haruno's previous life, and there is still a difference in the market size between the two sides.
Admittedly, he could copy some other types of literary works, perhaps something of higher status, but it would take longer to observe how much of a response those things would get in the market.
Taking all factors into consideration, Sawayama Haruno still prefers the one he is familiar with.
"Naoko, Midori?"
"Mana, Maki."
Sawayama Haruno switched the shower mode to shower, then grabbed the water and rinsed his face.
The water rushed over his body, but it couldn't disturb his complicated thoughts.
He thought that according to his current situation and mental state, wouldn't it be easy to write this book?
The only difference is that the story in reality has not been distorted to that extent, but it will be soon. Maybe if we add some artificial artistic processing, make it more bloody and more youthful and painful, it will be fine.
"You can't just talk and not do anything. Let's start tonight."
Sawayama Haruno closed his eyes and talked to himself.
When he was almost done with the bath, he turned off the water and then got into the bathtub to relax for a while.
It has to be said that Japanese people are really obsessed with taking baths. Almost every family with the means will have a bathtub for bathing. Naturally, the high-end apartment rented by Sawayama Haruno also has such facilities.
It’s just that he doesn’t take a bath that often, maybe only once every two or three days.
On the contrary, Miyazawa Maki seems to like taking baths very much. She has to stay in the bathroom for a long time every time and will not come out until the water is cold.
If you soak in the bath for too long, you will feel exhausted. There are still things to do tonight, so Sawayama Haruno only soaked for about ten minutes before getting up to change clothes.
By the time he left the bathroom and was about to go outside to the balcony to dry the towels, Miyazawa Maki was no longer in her original position.
——There was a sound of rummaging in the kitchen.
"What are you looking for?"
Sawayama Haruno asked casually while wiping his hair.
"Ice cream powder. Since you have an ice cream machine at home, you should also have ice cream powder, right?"
"Isn't there anything in the cupboard?"
Hearing this, Zeshan Haruno stopped wiping in confusion, "I usually put it in the cupboard. If it's not there, it may have been used up."
"Tsk, you don't even know how to refill it after you've used it up."
Miyazawa Maki's tone sounded somewhat complaining.
She was also thinking about taking it out and playing with it for a while, because the wine-flavored dessert she had in the restaurant today was very delicious, so she thought about using the ice cream machine in Zeshan Haruno's kitchen to DIY one.
"If you want to eat ice cream, I'll buy some when I go out tomorrow." Sawayama Haruno continued to wipe his hair and said nonchalantly, "I also need to go replenish some dry food and small items."
"What to add?"
Maki Miyazawa immediately became interested, and half of her head popped out of the kitchen to stare at Sawayama Haruno.
She smelled something "delicious".
"It's the ingredients used to make ice cream, nuts, chocolate, Ferrero Rocher and the like."
"I also need to go!"
Before Sawayama Haruno could finish his words, Miyazawa Maki interrupted him with shining eyes.
".I plan to buy it after I meet your classmate, but go ahead if you want to."
"Can't you just go and meet after you finish shopping?"
Miyazawa Maki raised her eyebrows, somewhat unhappy.
But before she could say a few more words, the cell phone in her pajama shorts suddenly vibrated.
Miyazawa Maki realized something and immediately swallowed back the words she had not finished saying. She took out her phone at the speed of light and unlocked the screen.
As expected, it was sent by Miyazawa Mana, but unfortunately, the other party only sent an emoticon pack of a rabbit smiley face, nothing else.
"What attitude"
Miyazawa Maki suddenly felt a little indignant. This was completely different from the plot she had imagined!
But before she could complain more, the next cell phone ring came from Sawayama Haruno.
