So Ordinary I Want to Be Recognized

"Correct."

"That's Double Happiness? So, as a celebration, how many arenas are lined up?"

"no problem."

Familiar with the road, he pressed the button agreeing to match, and the boy propped up his cheeks comfortably.

This kind of leisure after being busy is really... wonderful.

......

In anticipation, the day of back to school came.

After a few days of fishing at home, Yonezutaku finally got up early again.

After washing up and eating breakfast, he arrived at the school humming.

After entering the school gate, the same scene as the last time he checked the results of the academic ability test appeared in front of his eyes.

The students once again gathered in front of the bulletin board.

But this time, because I came earlier...

Mizinzhuo spotted a familiar figure at a glance.

That is...

At the edge of the crowd, Miss Kato, who stood on tiptoe slightly and squinted her eyes, tried to find her name.

However, judging from her slightly confused expression, even if she tried so hard, she couldn't read the words on the bulletin board clearly—after all, they were too far away.

Moreover, none of the classmates around noticed her troubles.

But now... with the first one.

The boy walked up without hesitation and walked to her side.

only...

"Good morning, Yonezu-san." Megumi Kato spoke directly without even moving his eyes.

"Eh? Ah... good morning." The boy who originally wanted to surprise the other party got a surprise.

"Today...it's very early." She tiptoed again, but still couldn't find the familiar strokes, Kato Megumi simply chose to give up.

"Well. Well, let me help you look at the rankings." Saying so, Mizutaka took advantage of his height and began to find names in the second grade rankings.

"Okay. Ah, yes, Yonezu-san is in the 41st place." When he was trying to concentrate, Kato Megumi told him as if he remembered something.

Four, 41?

so tall?

The boy who heard these words looked at the leaderboard in disbelief.

[40. Sawamura. Spencer. Yingli pear]

[41. Mizutaka]

It's really... in the top [-].

By the way, I also saw the name of an acquaintance.

So, Miss Kato, where are you?

His eyes fell on the No.1 Yukinoshita Yukino again, and began to look for them one by one.

result...

He couldn't find the word "Megumi Kato" until he finished reading the top fifty.

So, after fifty?

The board after fifty people is farther away from here, and it is blocked by people's heads, so it's no wonder Miss Kato couldn't see it.

The young man who thought this way immediately narrowed his eyes.

His gaze passed condescendingly through the gaps between the heads, and he began to search for clues.

finally...

[59. Megumi Kato]

Although this time it has improved a little compared to last time, but...compared to it, it is not very obvious.

"You are nine, Kato-san..." Mizutaku told the girl beside him softly.

"Oh..." As promised, Kato Megumi's final voice dropped slightly.

"Is it because...you didn't pass the exam, are you sad?" The boy asked cautiously.

"Hmm, it's not that I didn't pass the exam." The girl shook her head lightly, "It can be regarded as a slight improvement on the basis of normal performance."

"Then why..."

"Last time, I was one rank higher than Yonezu-san, but this time...the gap has widened so far. I'm really happy for Yonezu-san, but... there is always a strange feeling " Kato Megumi said in a low voice and rambling for a long time.

"Eh, strange?" The boy was a little puzzled.
