Kiyono Lin nodded her head.

"What time?" Jiutiao Meijie's voice suddenly came through.

Xiaoquan Aonai turned her head to look, but could still only see her hair.

"Noon."

After she finished speaking, Jiutiao Meijie's sleeping posture seemed even more comfortable.

In a month, the three had not become friends; she was unpopular.

Before long, her future self walked in.

"Everyone, please take your seats."

"Regarding the mock exam at the end of April, everyone should review the questions you got wrong..."

The mock exam, those were indeed a few tough days.

Xiaoquan Aonai had gone several nights without sleep, using the excuse that the teacher absolutely did not allow cheating, insisting that Dubian Che take the test himself.

As a result, she had to catch up on sleep during the day and ended up being scolded and punished to stand by the teacher.

"And about the sports festival on Friday, for our class, the boys' group: Dubian, Kunii...; and the girls' group: Hiramura..."

The sports festival was on Friday, it seemed that she was causing trouble for Dubian again.

In the classroom, only the pleasant and gentle voice of Xiaoquan Aonai remained.

Once it quieted down, the sound of rain outside struck the eardrums even more fiercely.

The sound of the wind also grew louder.

Listening to the rain, Xiaoquan Aonai remembered the previous week when she, her future self, and Dubian Che went to Sapporo in Hokkaido.

At the end of April, approaching May, the cherry blossoms there had just begun to bloom.

The two of them and a cat walked down a cherry blossom path, and she asked Dubian Che:

"Dubian, how would you charm a girl at a time like this?"

"Little Koizumi, aren't you the teacher?"

At the time she snorted, looked around, and pulled her future self under a cherry blossom tree.

"Aonai, I'm going to give you a shower of cherry blossoms," she said with a super cool voice.

Then, she kicked the cherry tree.

There was a snap, and the tree broke.

Eventually, a patrolling police officer came by, suspecting her of using violence against women.

On their way to the Shiroi Koibito chocolate factory, Dubian Che relentlessly mocked her!

Even her future self joined in laughing at her with that guy!

So embarrassing!

When the morning meeting ended, Xiaoquan Aonai quietly gazed at the heavy rain outside the window during the morning classes.

That chemistry teacher was picking on students again.

If someone answered incorrectly, he made them stand the whole time, then called on the next student.

These matters didn't concern her.

Unlike the classical literature teacher, this chemistry teacher wasn't interested in the top students and only focused on yelling at the poor performers.

Of course, these "poor performers" were still far better than Xiaoquan Aonai herself.

During the times she zoned out, she recalled everything about this month.

Confusion, novelty, excitement, unwillingness, sadness, regret, pleasure.

Dubian Che's apartment was on the fifth floor, with a road below and only a five-minute walk from Shinano Town station.

On weekends, the place was packed with young people and almost impossible to navigate through.

But in the depths of the night, it became deathly still, without a soul in sight.

Only the orderly streetlights and the occasional passing car.

During such deep nights, she and Dubian Che, who had turned into a cat, watched Masked Rider, various sci-fi films that weren't around ten years before, and "The Most Beautiful Legs from Iwate Prefecture to Tokyo."

The boy from Iwate Prefecture in the film made her into a fangirl.

The last scene, with the boy closing his eyes in the dappled sunlight through the trees, left a deep impression on her.

And the opening scene, where Dubian Che nonchalantly swept back his hair with one hand and put on a cap, was irrepressibly cool.

If Dubian Che were her boyfriend, she'd make him do it for her every day.

The morning classes ended, and it was finally noon; she didn't have the chance to listen to the idle chatter of those boys again.

Kunii Shuichi hadn't given up on persuading Dubian Che to join the baseball team;

Saito Keisuke had visited a game company during Golden Week and seemed ready to try his hand at game development;

The eye-glasses guy was still talking about some doctrine she didn't understand.

In the corridor not far from the teachers' office, she met up with her future self.

She had heard this was her location when she arrived, so she wanted to return from here.

"Please take care of that matter," Xiaoquan Aonai said.

"Okay." Xiaoquan Aonai looked at her past self, tears welling up in her eyes uncontrollably.

"Don't cry, everyone will think Dubian bullied you," Xiaoquan Aonai said with a smile.

Xiaoquan Aonai's blurry vision could hardly make out her smile clearly.

"Ah, it's almost over, a month went by so quickly," Xiaoquan Aonai looked out the window of the corridor.

Carrying a time that's like a dream, it's about to come to an end, she would forget everything that happened this month.

The rain had gotten lighter and was about to stop.

She wondered if she could hold out until the rain ended; she really wanted to see the sun.

"Right." Suddenly she remembered something, "That guy Dubian wrote 'The Most Beautiful Legs of female voice actors' in his notes, you must scold him."

"I will scold him properly." Xiaoquan Aonai pursed her lips, her eyes shimmering with tears.

"This period, I caused you trouble, spent your money, got you misunderstood by Akiko and Miyuki."

Xiaoquan Aonai just shook her head.

Once she opened her mouth, she feared her tears would flow.

"It's a pity," Xiaoquan Aonai said with a bitter smile, "for you, everything I've done seems like just a dream, not a real experience. Both of us, we're the same person, but it feels like we're not."

Xiaoquan Aonai didn't speak, just looked at her past self.

"I like Dubian Che," Xiaoquan Aonai suddenly said.

"I know," Xiaoquan Aonai managed to speak.

"I wouldn't mind being his lover," Xiaoquan Aonai continued.

"I know," Xiaoquan Aonai's eyes were sore, and her nose felt sour.
