Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Beating a child on a rainy day, idling anyway

"Shirakawa... Why are you suddenly smiling so wickedly? Who called you?"

Under the stage of the voice acting competition, the little whimpering monster looked at Shirakawa Sawahei, who showed a mysterious smile after taking a call, and couldn’t help but probe, "Why do I feel like someone’s going to be in trouble..."

"Pretty much, your intuition is spot on." Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at Tsukimi Sakurazawa in surprise, "Since when did you have such strong foresight?"

"I’ve never seen you smile like that before... Shirakawa, be honest! Are you secretly plotting against me?"

"Do I need to be sneaky to plot against you?" Shirakawa Sawahei scoffed, "With your level of vigilance, if I were a bad guy, you’d have been plotted against ten thousand times by now."

"What are you planning to do? Hypnotize me? Or imprison me..." The little whimpering monster’s eyes were full of mischievous charm, "Oh~ Shirakawa, I couldn’t tell, you have such ideas~"

"..."

Spill it! Did a manga artist like Ise Yu possess you!

"Honestly, I just want to make you speechless right now..." Shirakawa Sawahei smiled, "Don’t think I won’t dare to hit you just because there are a lot of people here."

"You... Shirakawa... I’m so obedient, could you really bear to hit me?"

Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at her, "Where does your confidence come from that I wouldn’t bear to hit you?"

"Hits even a buddy! Heartless! Shirakawa, you’re really something!"

"Cut it out... It looks like Tachibana is up next."

"Where, where?"

Under the gaze of the two, the previous group of voice acting contestants finished their performance and quietly exited the stage after scoring. Tachibana Tomoku, the next contestant, was surprisingly the first to appear.

Little Invisible timidly walked out from behind the stage, bowed to the audience, and looked up once at the audience... silence followed...

Still a bit nervous.

Tachibana Tomoku turned her back silently and chose to wear the mask Shirakawa Sawahei had prepared for her, finally calming her voice a bit.

"Hello everyone..."

The audience below watched with interest at this stunningly cute girl; judging by her behavior, this young lady seemed a bit shy, and she wore a mask in the end... Curious to see how her voice acting performance would be, if she did okay, she’d definitely secure a place in the top ranks.

Exactly, humans are such shallow creatures that judge by appearance. Who doesn’t like a pretty and cute girl?

Shirakawa Sawahei from the audience seemed to lock eyes with Tachibana Tomoku’s searching gaze. Tsukimi Sakurazawa beside her cheered Tachibana on, and with the presence of two Calligraphy Club companions, Little Invisible seemed to gain a lot of courage. She took a deep breath, exhaled lightly, and then entered her voice acting state.

"Brother, you are a super big liar... a pervert, a freak..."

The scene Tachibana Tomoku drew was the confession scene of Ayase Aya, filled with rich emotions. Just voicing that kind of crying tone was quite a challenge for an amateur contestant.

As the girl’s voice beneath the mask slowly began, Shirakawa Sawahei’s anxious heart finally eased a bit— in such a short time, he could only raise Little Invisible’s acting level to lv2, and he didn’t know if it would work, as he had never tested lv2 acting skills for voice acting.

Seeing Tachibana Tomoku not only not being nervous but also leveraging her skills, Shirakawa Sawahei felt the experience he fed was worth it.

Yes, and actually hearing Little Invisible cursing, if recorded and played back to her, would she blush to the point of spontaneously combusting...

"Oh my... since when did Xiao Mo have the talent for voice acting?" Tsukimi Sakurazawa commented nervously, "Turns out everyone around me is so talented? With so many cards up their sleeve?"

"Shirakawa! Did you know about this? Am I the only one who didn’t?"

"I didn’t know." Shirakawa Sawahei was too lazy to respond to her, focusing on watching Tachibana Tomoku’s performance. Tsukimi Sakurazawa, watching Shirakawa Sawahei’s side profile, muttered something to herself.

"Hmm~ Should I also reveal some new talents... If this keeps going, it could be bad... I might be seen as just a useless Calligraphy Club president..."

"So hard... What talent should I reveal..."

The whimpering monster originally wanted to get along with Shirakawa Sawahei as an ordinary person, but seemed to sense some crisis, pondering her strategy.

After completing a voice acting segment with a crying tone, Tachibana Tomoku’s clenched little hand was now a fist, and she bowed to the audience again, seemingly planning to sneak back off stage. The host quickly stopped this adorable escape artist, smiling wryly as he began to let the audience score her performance.

Undoubtedly, Little Invisible Study Girl’s performance received high praise. In this entertainment-centric competition filled with newbies, an lv2 acting skill had no rivals.

The subsequent contestants took the stage quickly, and before long, this little entertainment convention voice acting competition came to an end, with Tachibana Tomoku unsurprisingly winning first place and receiving her prize— a figure of a pig boy and bunny girl senpai.

Tachibana Tomoku: (ŎдŎ;)

She and the contestant who came fourth looked at each other’s figures enviously for a long time...

Fourth Place: My Mai Senpai...

Tachibana Tomoku: Shirakawa’s Doraemon...

Back at Shirakawa Sawahei’s side, Little Invisible had her head down, seemingly a bit downcast, as she originally wanted to find the fourth-place contestant backstage to exchange gifts... even if it meant adding a little extra money! Unfortunately, the fourth-place contestant, after losing, was also down and quickly left to explore other venues, leaving Tachibana Tomoku empty-handed and naturally disappointed.

"Wow~ Xiao Mo, you did great, this figure is pretty nice, Shirakawa, do you want it? If not, give it to me."

"Why not." Shirakawa Sawahei retorted, "I never said I didn’t like it."

He then turned to the downcast Tachibana Tomoku and said, "Thank you, Tachibana, I really like this gift you’ve given me."

"Re-Really?"

"Yes." Shirakawa Sawahei calmly said, "For you to have the courage to get on stage to win a prize for me is already a great gift."

"You’re welcome..."

Tachibana Tomoku slightly lifted her little face, her pure eyes filled with joyful light, "As long as Shirakawa likes it, that’s what matters."

"Hey, hey... Xiao Mo, that’s a bit biased!" The whimpering monster groaned, "I also really like this figure... Can you please stop rubbing it in my face."

"Then I’ll go see if there are any more competitions."

Little Invisible seriously said and was about to turn to leave when Tsukimi Sakurazawa hurriedly held her back, advising, "No need! I was just saying... I don’t really play with figures; if I wanted to, I could go to his place."

"Is that so?"

Little Invisible and the whimpering monster both looked over at Shirakawa Sawahei, who had no choice but to nod helplessly.

"Yes, you can."

"That’s more like it~" Tsukimi Sakurazawa said smugly, "By the way, Shirakawa, ever since you moved and started cohabiting with Orikin, we haven’t been to your place..."

"How about after touring the convention today, we go to your place to celebrate tonight!"

"Tonight?"

Shirakawa Sawahei showed a peculiar expression and shook his head gently, "Tonight’s not possible."

"Why not?"

Shirakawa Sawahei again displayed his exclusive devilish smile for Ise Yu, saying, "Because... I have something very important to handle with Ise Yu tonight."

"If you don’t want to divert her attention, come tomorrow instead."
