Chapter 246

Countless thoughts in his mind were cut off in the blink of an eye.

Her beautiful eyes blinked, and she stared blankly at Kitakami Yoru.

"Ah... yeah..."

Aoyama Nanami nodded subconsciously in response.

The heavy stone representing nervousness finally fell.

"Hoo..."

Secretly breathing a long sigh of relief, Aoyama Nanami felt like a patient who had been initially diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor, only to find out after a CT scan that it was a misdiagnosis—the relief of surviving a disaster.

"What was I doing... luckily Kitakami-kun didn't discover it..."

"Otherwise, I would never dare to see him again."

"I was just wearing a bathrobe at home, having just come out of the shower; are you really that shy, Nanami?"

Kitakami Yoru curled his lips, his tone sounding a bit reproachful.

He had no idea that because of a direct sentence, he had missed a perfect, top-tier treasure.

But then again...

This treasure already belonged to him; it was just a matter of time.

Hehehe...

Maybe if he nurtures it a bit more, by then...

Developing and carving it will be easier and smoother.

"I was just a bit embarrassed, and you came to touch my ears."

"You didn't give me time!"

Aoyama Nanami lowered her head and defended herself in a low voice.

"Nanami, your ears are quite cute; if you don't talk like this again in the future, I'll tug your ears again."

Kitakami Yoru laughed it off and looked curiously at the two printed papers on the floor.

"Huh?"

This remark gave Aoyama Nanami a big fright; tugging them at home was fine, she absolutely wouldn't resist, and couldn't resist at all, since no one was there anyway.

But if...

Outside...

No, absolutely not outside!

"But... I can't tell Kitakami-kun that my ears can't be touched..."

Aoyama Nanami reached out quickly and touched that pair of ears.

"So Nanami, you came to find me for this matter?"

Kitakami Yoru bent down to pick up the two printed papers and glanced at them.

The text printed on them was very neat, section by section; were they lines?

"Yes, yes, it's this matter."

Aoyama Nanami nodded repeatedly, wishing she could divert from the previous topic.

"What is this?"

Kitakami Yoru asked suspiciously.

"Voice actor dubbing lines... aren't I taking an exam soon?"

"I wanted to find someone to practice with..."

This was an excuse Aoyama Nanami had long thought of and secretly repeated dozens of times in private, so she said it smoothly.

"No problem, your exam is in November, right?"

Kitakami Yoru nodded in agreement.

"You know?"

A flash of surprise crossed Aoyama Nanami’s expression.

How did Kitakami-kun know?

Originally, she had wanted to have time with him after the audition exam...

Wuwu...

X﹏X

Aoyama Nanami’s heart was almost broken; she probably didn't just like Kitakami Yoru, she was definitely deeply in love.

"You told me a long time ago, and I’ve always remembered it?"

Kitakami Yoru replied casually.

Hearing this, Aoyama Nanami felt secretly happy because of this casual remark.

Kitakami-kun actually remembered something I once said, even I don't remember it myself!

Aoyama Nanami, unsettled, saw her eyes change quietly.

"What do I need to do?"

Kitakami Yoru yawned; his head felt much better after the bath.

"You look at the lines first, get familiar with them for a while, I'll go home and change clothes."

After Aoyama Nanami finished speaking, she secretly squeezed her legs together, her little white-socked feet stepping on the cool floor.

"I'll wait for you."

Kitakami Yoru tilted his head, pursed his lips, and replied with a light laugh.

The sudden expression and action dealt a critical hit of ten thousand points to Aoyama Nanami.

Her heartbeat accelerated immediately; was that strange feeling coming again?

Cursing herself in her heart for being a perverted, lowly, bad woman, Aoyama Nanami struggled to stand up and ran away hurriedly.

"Was there a need to be that hurried?"

Kitakami Yoru, feeling a bit strange, watched Aoyama Nanami leave, then looked at the wet spot on the small sofa.

"Meow meow..."

San-San, that fat cat, meowed twice and jumped onto the sofa.

"San-San, it's all plain water, nothing else, don't go licking it..."

Kitakami Yoru caught San San in time, pulled her into his arms, and began vigorously rubbing the fat cat.

Hehehe...

"Meow..."

San-San’s amber eyes rolled around, and its paws gently tugged at Kitakami Yoru’s clothes.

Ten minutes passed.

Aoyama Nanami, having changed into a full set of casual home clothes, finally returned.

She even changed her wet panties, you know...

"Sorry for the wait, Kitakami-kun."

Aoyama Nanami’s face was slightly flushed, and it wouldn't fade away.

"I've finished reading it, do you want me to play that person, play a man?"

Kitakami Yoru displayed the printed paper in his hand.

On it was a section of plot lines, a boy confessing cheesily to a girl...

Just looking at it gave him goosebumps.

Nanami actually asked him for help; she must definitely trust him, right?

"Speaking of which, the voice actor exam is too important for Nanami."

Kitakami Yoru muttered in his heart, without any intention of overthinking or being perfunctory.

"No, it's a girl..."

After holding it in for a few seconds, Aoyama Nanami spoke slowly.

Perhaps because she had experienced the previous, more embarrassing feeling, her thinking was clear and she could converse normally.

If that had been discovered, she would really be dead!

Kitakami Yoru’s movements slowed by half a beat; he, a man, playing a girl?

The side accepting the confession?

But thinking about it carefully, it was nothing.

In One Piece, isn't Luffy’s voice actor an old lady?

Voice actors cannot be viewed with common sense.

"Then let's start... hoo..."

Aoyama Nanami chose this section, and even came to find Kitakami Yoru for help, entirely for selfish reasons.

To have an excuse to secretly ask about Kitakami Yoru’s private life!

Now...

It didn't matter...

Whether it was Yukishita Yukino or someone else...

In any case, it wouldn't be her turn.

Aoyama Nanami knew the dialogue above by heart and didn't need to look at the manuscript.

But before starting.

She couldn't help but muster the courage to ask one question: "Kitakami-kun, I saw you yawning, did you not sleep well last night?"

"Yeah, I was a bit uncomfortable last night... hehe..."

He definitely couldn't tell Aoyama Nanami about sleeping with Fujiwara Chika, so he answered this way.

And he wasn't lying.

"As I thought..."

Knowing that asking would be like rubbing salt into a wound, Aoyama Nanami still asked!

"Nanami?"

Kitakami Yoru’s sixth sense inexplicably felt that the cute girl in front of him was a bit off, not shy...

Calling her name gently with a bit of distance, Kitakami Yoru sat up straight and examined Aoyama Nanami from head to toe.

Finally, his gaze landed on that pair of little white-socked feet.

Hmm...

Wearing little white socks is also very suitable...

Nanami is so pretty and cute, and her personality is not bad...

A bold thought and idea popped into Kitakami Yoru’s mind...

24: Has a girl been to the house?

"Nanami?"

Kitakami Yoru raised his head and met Aoyama Nanami’s gaze; their eyes intertwined in mid-air.

"Hmm?"

Aoyama Nanami was startled at first, her eyes dodging shyly.

"She’s practically got 'easy to trick' written all over her face..."

Kitakami Yoru thought secretly in his heart.

Aoyama Nanami is cute, has a good personality, gets along very pleasantly, and has 'easy to trick' written all over her face...

She’s the most suitable choice for a girlfriend, isn't she?

"What's wrong?"

"Can... can we start now?"

Aoyama Nanami had been stared at by Kitakami Yoru, and her heart trembled.

She was especially afraid that Kitakami Yoru would smell a strange odor and discover her abnormality.

"We can start, OK."

Kitakami Yoru composed himself and said seriously.

The voice actor exam is so important to Aoyama Nanami, how could he possibly go and trick this simple girl?

At the very least, talk about it later.

"Then let's start, cough cough."

Aoyama Nanami cleared her throat, her small hands nervously clutching the edge of the sofa, her fingers digging deep into it.

"If my girl’s voice doesn't sound like it, will it have an impact?"

Kitakami Yoru said seriously; the previous thought was just a fleeting interlude.

Aoyama Nanami brewed her emotions and shook her head lightly; anyway, she didn't care much.

On the contrary, she wanted to use the dubbing dialogue to secretly say those confession words to Kitakami Yoru later, which was true.

The dubbing content was a short story.

The story took place at a well-known public high school.

The background of the story was two top students, a boy and a girl, who looked down on each other and were a bit hostile, gradually developing feelings during their daily interactions, and the boy top student confessed on Valentine’s Day.

What was being practiced was, naturally, Valentine’s Day.

All actions and dialogues were carried out in different scenes.

Kitakami Yoru was playing the female student...

"Yo, glasses girl, you came to school so early, what?"

"Are you afraid of being surpassed by me?"

Aoyama Nanami’s vocal cords moved, and she used technique to spit out a line full of a boyish feeling.

That kind of high schooler’s greenness and playful joking, the tone and tone were grasped very well.

At the very least, that’s what Kitakami Yoru thought.

"I almost thought Nanami was someone else in disguise."

The moment she opened her mouth, Kitakami Yoru saw the cute, familiar girl in front of him open her mouth and emit a completely unfamiliar male voice.

Even though he was prepared, he still couldn't control his subconscious reaction, thinking blankly in his heart.

"Hmph..."

Next, Kitakami Yoru hummed lightly with a nasal sound.

According to the lines, the female top student directly hummed and walked around to the side.

Dubbing isn't just reading the lines and changing the voice.

It also requires perfectly expressing the mood, tone, and everything the character contained at that time in different emotions and scenes...

"Don't, ignoring me?"

Aoyama Nanami paused, lowered her gaze slightly, and read the next line, gradually entering the state.

Everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

Dubbing a script usually takes ten minutes or so to complete.

Finally...

It was Aoyama Nanami’s turn, playing the male student, to confess to the female student...

The name called out was even a girl who only existed in fiction.

But with the person she liked sitting in front of her, and playing the object accepting the confession, Aoyama Nanami’s CPU was almost smoking from shyness...

It was very clear that in the current situation, Aoyama Nanami’s mental quality wasn't up to par, and she was prone to shyness in front of Kitakami Yoru.

The best solution should be to play more shy games with Kitakami Yoru to strengthen her psychological construction.

"Why did you call me here?"

"Really... hey..."

The scene was set at sunset on an empty rooftop; the moment the female top student was called up and saw there were only two people.

She also knew today was Valentine’s Day, and the tone and tone were complex...

Shy... impatient... surprised... annoyed... nervous...

Kitakami Yoru learned it very poorly, and even the voice he spoke with was rough and heavy, completely unable to enter the state.

Conversely, Aoyama Nanami, whose next line was the confession...

"Nanami’s expression, this blushing, these little actions... too deep into the role..."

"She acted so well, with such emotion."

Kitakami Yoru closed his mouth and observed the girl’s expression and reaction in front of him to evaluate.

Aoyama Nanami, performing in her true colors, in a purely natural situation, was definitely far better than acting.

"No... I... I can't say it..."
