The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

source:

The last day of June is still a sunny day.

There are unknown yellow flowers blooming on the trees beside the road downstairs. They gather in clusters and sometimes blow into the corridor with the wind. Even though the school has ended, there are still people who are not in a hurry to leave.

.

Class 1 of the second year of junior high school, this is the class where Xiao Feiniao is.

"Asuka-chan~ Today is your duty."

"oh."

"Asuka-chan, your math homework hasn't been handed in yet. Remember to hurry up. Mr. Kawaguchi is always very strict."

"oh."

"Asuka-chan, tell me about your time as an idol in Nogizaka. I really want to hear this."

There is no way to deal with this.

Little Feiniao felt a pity silently in her heart. She closed the book and saw a few words printed on the sky blue cover. She turned her head and glanced at the yellow petals floating into the classroom, and then glanced at the lower right corner of the blackboard where the words "Students on Duty" were written.

Saito Asuka, his own name, nodded in confirmation and said: "I understand, I'll go clean up later."

"Oh, that's not what I'm talking about. I just want to hear about your experience as an idol. Can you tell me about it, Asuka-sama?"

The girl with a round face and short hair in front of me came over and said with a smile on her face.

There was no reaction on Xiao Feiniao's face, and she lowered her head and continued to open the book. She didn't like others calling her that, but she didn't take the initiative to correct others' calls harshly, because once you show that you care, it will attract more people.

It's better to pretend not to care about anything, as long as you don't let others guess what you are thinking. This is a truth she has long understood.

The girl in front of her didn't have any ill intentions, because she didn't know whether the little bird in front of her liked this name. She just heard other classmates calling her that, so she just followed it. She wanted to build a relationship.

, it always starts with the title, doesn’t it?

Although the little bird doesn't like it.

But more than she doesn't like the title, she doesn't like to be the subject of others' comments, the subject of others trying to figure out what they are thinking, or the subject of being teased and isolated by others. This feeling is very insecure, and can even

She said she was lonely, although she didn't hate being lonely - maybe she didn't like it either.

If you don't want to be noticed or isolated, then you have to make yourself plain and lonely, and make yourself look ordinary.

This is the philosophy of Little Flying Bird.

Sometimes, however, trouble cannot be avoided.

"Hey, Saito, please lend me your book."

Another boy came to the desk. He had short hair and a figure that was naturally much taller than the thin girl. He looked down at him condescendingly.

"oh."

It's a customary response, but it doesn't mean anything. The little birds are used to talking like this in school. One good thing here is that regardless of gender, they are still children after all, and they are relatively thin-skinned, so as long as they shirk and deal with it for a few words, usually

They will all leave on their own, so there is no need to worry about entanglement.

"I see that you have been reading this book recently. I thought it was such a great book, so I asked my family to buy it and read it. But it turned out that it was just average and I couldn't understand what it was saying."

"oh."

"I bought three copies. They are all newly bound editions with special illustrations. They are much better than yours."

"oh."

"You have three copies in exchange for one, do you want to exchange them?"

""

Xiao Feiniao paused for a moment. He didn't say his original response, but slowly closed the book. His eyes flashed brightly. He thought seriously for a long time for the first time, and then shook his head: "I won't change."

The boy was not frustrated. He smiled and said, "I know you don't want to change. I like you. Please be my girlfriend."

"oh."

Xiao Feiniao closed the book and stood up. The cleaning time was coming, and she was ready to leave and clean up.

The boy was not satisfied when he couldn't get the answer he wanted. He reached out and prepared to grab the girl's hand to keep her, and then repeated his confession, but he could only grab the book in the girl's hand in a hurry. The pages of the book were shaking.

As soon as she opened it, the girl held it tightly, and the cover of the book trembled slightly on her fingertips.

Xiao Feiniao stopped. She lowered her head and looked at the book in her hands. Then she looked up at the boy's face and recognized who he was. She vaguely remembered that his family seemed to be well off and there were several chain restaurants at home.

, no wonder you have money to buy three identical books, isn’t it boring? And you can’t even read them.

"Let go."

With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Feiniao lowered his head to read the book again, and shouted in a low voice with a somewhat serious expression. However, the boy thought that he had finally grasped the other person's lifeline. His smile looked a little complacent, and he tried hard to pull the girl away with his hands.

He came over and said triumphantly: "You can let me go. You can listen to what I have to say first. I said I like -"

With a crash, the pages of the book were completely torn apart.

Broken papers were scattered on the floor. It was obvious that the boy was right. The three books he bought should indeed be better than this one. At least the material would not be torn apart so easily and fall to the ground like fallen leaves.

The smile on the boy's face froze, and just as he was about to say something, Xiao Feiniao raised his head and glanced at him expressionlessly, then knelt down and picked up the pages of his book.

"You go, I have to clean up."

The boy's face looked a little ugly, but the classmates who noticed this scene in the classroom had already begun to whisper and point fingers, quite accusingly. It was difficult to say anything directly, so the boy could only mutter a few unpleasant words in a low voice.

, vented his anger, and then left with a displeased face.

The round-faced girl who had been asking little Asuka questions hurriedly came over and asked with concern on her face: "Asuka, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Xiao Feiniao shook his head gently.

"It's okay."

The round-faced girl looked relieved, and then looked at the little flying bird's actions with regret on her face.

"This book looks torn, doesn't it? What a pity."

""

Xiao Asuka was silent for a moment, then raised his head and glanced at the other person. It seemed that he had spent a lot of effort to remember her name, and said with some uncertainty: "Your name is Yuka-chan, right?"

"Ah, yes, yes!" The girl who was reminded of her name looked a little excited and nodded repeatedly.

"Do you have any tape?"

"What?"

"adhesive tape."

"That's the only thing, sticker tape." The round-faced girl was stunned for a moment, went to her seat, rummaged through her schoolbag, and took out a roll of tape with cartoon characters on it.

"Thanks."

Xiao Feiniao thanked him, then knelt down on his knees and silently began to use tape to piece together the fragments.

There were a lot of fragments, and they fell out very miscellaneously. Some fragments looked like they had no idea where they were at first glance, so the workload was huge.

She knelt patiently on the ground, not caring about the dust on the ground, and tried to piece together the pieces from memory. She stretched her neck to distinguish carefully, worrying that she had made a mistake in the order or reversed the direction, because this would require repeating the process again.

Coming.

Kneeling on the hard floor felt a little uncomfortable, and my bones ached slightly. Although the temperature in the air after school was not high, it was a bit stuffy in the classroom. It was even easier to get tired and sweat if I stayed still in the same position for a long time.

Xiao Feiniao wiped the corners of his eyes and continued the action without saying a word. I don't know if it was sweat or something else that blocked his sight. It was a bit troublesome. There was a lot of dust on his little hands when picking up the pages of the book, so he couldn't help but wipe the corners of his eyes.

I accidentally got it on my face, and my little face that hadn't grown yet looked gray, like a downtrodden ugly duckling.

After some time, the little bird left the school.

In front of the school gate, she met an unexpected person.

"Nanamin?"

Little Asuka looked at the girl across the street in surprise.

Hashimoto Nana looked at the girl who suddenly ran over from a distance with a smile, hugged her in her arms, touched her little head and said, "Why, are you surprised that I came to pick you up today?"

"Hmm~"

Xiao Asuka shook her head in the girl's arms, but Hashimoto Nanami felt that something was wrong with her mood at this time. She touched her little face, then looked carefully and found some faint traces of dust.

Hashimoto Nana looked at Xiao Asuka's little face, her expression became slightly calmer, and asked with a smile: "Asuka, what's wrong?"

The girl's eyes were still slightly red, and there was unwashed dust between her fingers. The dim light of the setting sun shone through the gaps, and the pieces in her schoolbag were carefully collaged together with pieces of cartoon tape.

Little Asuka raised her head with a sweet smile, narrowed her eyes and shook her head cutely: "No, I am very happy to see Nanamin."
