Macbeth.

"My hands are the same color as yours, but my heart is ashamed to be as pale as yours."

After receiving the prophecy from the witches, Macbeth assassinated his cousin Duncan, King of Scotland. When he was panicked and at a loss after the attack, Lady Macbeth, who had always supported her husband, sent her husband comfort from his wife.

She said to Macbeth, the evil ghost, rebellious minister and executioner whose temperament had changed greatly, who was ambitious and frightened:

"Put on your pajamas. Maybe people will come to us. Don't let them see that we are not sleeping yet."

"I will stay with you while you sleep."

Every word of Megumi Karuizawa reveals the breath of love, almost making people drown in her love words without realizing it.

In the end, Kitagawa Ryo fell asleep peacefully in her arms like a child.

ps: This chapter is quite important (probably). In fact, Ryo has one of the most deadly knots in his heart that has never been solved. Whoever realizes it first will have a chance to really get into his heart and make him fall in love.

ps2: Thank you for reading and subscribing. Lady Macbeth in "Macbeth" is my favorite character. If Hiyori Shiina corresponds to Ophelia's sweetest girl's first love in "Hamlet", then Karui Zehui corresponds to Lady Macbeth - a deeper love that will never be abandoned no matter what the lover is.

Main plot: Kitagawa Ryo's strength supremacy classroom: Chapter 11: Help you one last time

"First time meeting you, Horikita-san. I am Kushida Kikyo, who is in charge of recruiting new recruits for the drama club. If you don't mind, just call me Kikyo."

"Can I help you?"

Kushida Kikyo smiled and stretched out her hand towards Horikita Suzune in front of her. Her enthusiastic smile and already beginning to take shape attracted the attention of the other freshmen who came for the interview.

I have long heard that there is a super beautiful senior sister in the drama department on campus, but when they actually meet face to face, some of these freshmen who have just entered school are still inevitably surprised. Besides, she is completely gentle and approachable. , the way he spoke softly and softly to everyone made them inevitably have a good impression.

"...Hello, I am Horikita Suzune."

"I wanted to come here today to ask if the section of Macbeth that I drew can be changed into a one-man show."

Horikita Suzune said and handed the script in her hand to the other party. Her posture with her arms folded looked less like a consultation and more like stating something.

"I'm afraid that's not possible."

Kushida Kikyo stuck out her tongue cutely, and she replied with some embarrassment:

"This scene is originally about the relationship between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth. If Horikita-san minds, a girl can play the role of Macbeth in the play. I would be very happy, for example."

After saying that, Kushida Kikyo added:

"Of course, this is because Horikita-san is very talented in drama."

Kushida Kikyo did not deliberately lower her voice, and the other freshmen were already paying attention, so her words immediately aroused whispers from the freshmen as soon as she said them.

As freshmen who have passed the preliminary review of the Drama Department and arrived here, many of them even have experience in drama performances. The rest also have their own stage performance skills. Drama is a performing art. At least there are no people like Horikita Suzu who are willing to enter here. Yin is an extremely barren existence in social aspects.

Before the final script distribution today, the Drama Department specially arranged an hour for the freshmen here to communicate and get to know each other. Horikita Suzune was the only one who sat in the corner and read a book and spent a whole hour. There were other freshmen who wanted to talk to her, but Horikita Suzune's cold attitude also dissuaded them.

No one is willing to put a hot face on a cold butt, no matter how good-looking the other person is.

Besides, isn't there another Kushida Kikyo who is good-looking and has a good personality?

Just a comparison made the impression of Horikita Suzune suddenly drop in the hearts of the freshmen. Under such circumstances, when they heard that Kushida Kikyo was willing to give in, the unknown fire in many people's hearts was suddenly aroused.

"Hey, hey, if you want to do a one-man show so much, it seems you just want to shine on the stage."

"This kind of person can actually be evaluated as having a talent for drama. She only said three sentences in an hour here. Then when she goes on stage to perform a performance, she will have to speak her lines for three days and three nights."

"Kushida-senpai, why are you taking such good care of her? It's not like the drama club is begging her to come in."

It was just a small complaint at first, but after discovering that the voices of the people around him were loud enough to cover up his own existence, these harsh discussions suddenly became louder.

Horikita Suzune just frowned when she heard this. She had heard similar words before, so she didn't lose control of her emotions. Just when she opened her mouth to defend herself, Kushida Kikyo, who was standing next to her, took the lead. said:

"Don't be so angry, everyone. Horikita-san is a very good person. Even Minister Kitagawa mentioned it to me specifically."

When Kitagawa's name appeared, the whole classroom fell silent instantly. After all, the name Kitagawa Ryo was too dazzling for these freshmen who are passionate about drama. Although I can't say 100% of them, at least 90% of them They all came here because of his reputation.

But they still looked at Horikita Suzune suspiciously. No matter how they looked at her, she didn't seem like a genius who could receive such praise.

Horikita Suzune didn't expect to hear Kitagawa Ryo's name here, so she asked Kushida Kikyo:

"Really?"

"Of course, you even asked me specifically to ask you which script you picked in the final review?"

Kushida Kikyo also showed the last chat record on her phone to Horikita Suzune. After seeing that the other party actually asked about her topic, Horikita Suzune raised her head quite complacently.

But she soon realized that this move was somewhat complacent, and quickly changed her words:

"Even if he doesn't ask, I will show him one day."

"Yes, yes, maybe Minister Kitagawa will come to watch Horikita-san's performance on the day of the final hearing."

Kushida Kikyo covered her mouth and chuckled. From the time she deliberately set aside an hour for the freshmen to communicate, and now the face-to-face contact with Horikita Suzune, she has roughly figured out Horikita Suzune's character.

If you want to make a girl with such an arrogant personality bow her head, it's best to temper the other person's temper first.

For example, first hold her up high.

"Then I will be your partner, Horikita-san?"

Kushida Kikyo said sincerely, stroking her chest with her hand.

"Let's do this for now."

The praised Horikita Suzune is like a child who got candy. Although she has never acted in a drama before, Horikita Suzune actually has the illusion that she is very talented.

Kushida Kikyo took in everyone's reactions and lowered her eyes.

The picture she could see every morning naturally appeared in her mind:

The early morning dewdrops were held up by the leaves, becoming fuller and prouder, bending the leaves heavily. At that most rounded moment, they reflected the brilliance of the sun crystal clear, as if they themselves were also shining with golden light.

Then, he fell to the ground in pieces.

Torn apart.

----------------------------------------

Kushida Platycodon.

Kitagawa Ryo lay alone on the sofa in the living room and crossed out the chat page with the other party.

I seem to have heard this name in the simulation. He is a student in Class D of the first year. I remember that he is very popular in the whole grade and even the whole school, and his social level is on par with Ichinose Honami.

However, I didn't have much contact with her. The only impression I had was that she became Ryuen Sho's undercover agent around the summer vacation.

What was the condition she proposed to Ryūen Sho at that time?

Kitagawa Ryo closed his eyes and recalled little by little. He was the only one in this house now, and the only sound left in silence was the ticking clock.

[Let Horikita Suzune drop out of school]

After thinking about it, Kitagawa Ryo also had a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Although Class D at that time was supported by Megumi Karuizawa as the leader, in some aspects, Kushida Kikyo's status in the class was even higher than that of Megumi Karuizawa. The reason why Sono Sho was able to use Kushida Kikyo to quickly collect information about Class D's favored recipients.

At that time, Horikita Suzune's status in Class D had almost reached rock bottom due to several defeats. Not to mention friends, she didn't even have a few people to talk to.

There should be no conflict points between these two people. No matter how you look at it, Horikita Suzune will not threaten Kushida Kikyo.

But Kushida Kikyo did not hesitate to betray the class and force Horikita Suzune to drop out of school. Where did this naked malice come from?

And based on the several exchanges he had with Horikita Suzune, the other party seemed to have no impression of Kushida Kikyo himself.

In other words, this malice is completely one-way.

Kitagawa Ryo secretly kept an eye on it. Although he was happy to see Horikita Suzune defeated, if the situation really got serious, he would not sit idly by and watch.

After experiencing Karuizawa Megumi's simulation, Kitagawa Ryo knew exactly how high the malice among girls would rise.

Just when Kitagawa Ryo was thinking about the conflict between Horikita Suzune and Kushida Kikyo, Kushida Kikyo instead sent him a video first.

"My hands are the same color as yours, but my heart is ashamed to be as pale as yours."

"No, the emotion of this sentence needs to be stronger. Imagine the scene at that time. You are the couple who just committed regicide."

Kushida Kikyo looked at the stiff performance in front of her and gave instructions.

"My hands are the same color as yours..."

"Horikita-kun, eyes are very important when acting. You should at least stare at the actor opposite you."

Horikita Suzune frowned slightly irritably. ]

[It's a bad start. ]

Kushida Kikyo's message was full of resentment. Although it was only a short video, Kitagawa Ryo could still see her faint helplessness.

[I even wondered if she had never spoken to anyone normally. Her eyes were wandering, she didn't know where to put her hands, and she always had a straight face, and her smile seemed to kill her. ]

It seems that the resentment is not small, Kushida Kikyo looks quite dissatisfied.

[Although she looks impatient, Suzune is not someone who gives up easily. Please bear with her a little longer. ]

[Hey, are you familiar with the director and Horikita-san? To use such a kind name. ]

Kitagawa Ryo was slightly stunned. Maybe he was used to it before and subconsciously hit the "ring tone".

Kushida Kikyo raised her lips as if she had found some secret treasure. From the first time Kitagawa Ryo asked her about Horikita Suzune, she realized that the relationship between the two was unusual. Unexpectedly, it seemed that she had discovered quite a lot. Something incredible.

[I met her once or twice. Her brother just likes to watch my dramas. ]

Kitagawa Ryo moved his fingers and replied.

[OK! Since the minister has asked me, I will definitely do my best! ]

Kushida Kikyo also wisely didn't ask any more questions, and there was no movement after sending this message.

Throwing the phone aside, Kitagawa Ryo continued to lie down on the sofa.

After calling out casually, Yingying suddenly jumped into his arms from nowhere.

[Big Shit Shovel Officer (Purple): You have a well-behaved, smart, and humane pet cat, but recently you feel that something is wrong with the way it looks at you. ]

The kitten that accompanied him in every simulation remained innocent and cute no matter how many times he saw it.

Kitagawa Ryo stretched out his fingers to caress Hotaru's chin, and Hotaru stretched out her two front paws to protect his fingers, and stretched out her tongue to lick his fingertips.

It has a wonderful frosted feel.

The fire-colored pupils reminded Kitagawa Ryo of his sister who had been sent abroad for treatment.

He still remembers the feeling of relief after he saved enough money. For two years, he almost performed continuously in various places in order to make money.

On the one hand, he quit the drama circle because he no longer needed more money; on the other hand, he truly felt bored and deeply tired.

Every day when you open your eyes, it's drama, and when you close your eyes, you still think about drama.

Calculating the amount of money that can be obtained every day, immersed in various roles, and dedicating an absolutely wonderful performance under the blazing spotlight, until the cheers and applause off the stage are a little unfamiliar.

I always feel that this kind of life is too familiar, as if I have seen it once.

"Hello, I'm Kitagawa Ryo."

The vibration of the cell phone interrupted Kitagawa Ryo's endless thoughts. He stretched out his right hand, took the cell phone he had just thrown aside, and put it to his ear.

"Hello."

There was a strange middle-aged man's voice on the other side, so Kitagawa Ryo subconsciously turned on the recording.

"I am the admissions office of Tokyo Advanced Education High School."

The other party's tone was quite gentle.

I opened the notebook in front of me and checked the other party's number on the Internet. It turned out to be the admissions office number on the official website of Tokyo Advanced Education High School.

"Tokyo Advanced Education Middle School? I am only a second-year junior high school student this year. Did you call the wrong number?"

Hearing the words "Tokyo Advanced Education High School", Kitagawa Ryo was also a little confused.

According to his understanding, the annual enrollment of Tokyo Advanced Education Middle School is actually based on advance inspection and determination. In other words, as long as the other party determines that you are qualified for admission, regardless of your written test and interview scores, you will be admitted.

Although Kitagawa Ryo himself did have plans to enter this school, that should be more than a year later.

Why did the other party call him at this time?

"It's like this. About half a year from now, our school will hold a cultural festival. The invited guests are people related to the construction and operation of our school, as well as their families. Chairman Sakayanagi has also filled in your name, so I specially called you. Please confirm."

"ha?"

Kitagawa Ryo used his computer to log on to his social software with a question mark to contact Sakayanagi Yusu:
