This one counts as the fifth Notebook.
I hope I can.. Okay, at least I can have a few more, not give up too soon.
Although I don't know how long I'll be able to hold on.
That's about it for the Diary.. It seems I've written quite a lot.. So, I'll leave it at that for today.

January 2, 20xx. Weather: Sunny
..
I've been busy all day, there is actually quite a lot I could write about, but none of it is convenient to write down.
I suppose this is a habit I've formed after writing my fourth Diary? It's safer to keep important matters in my head.
Even though standards have been relaxed since the she, I still.. *ahem*.
In that case.. I might as well write down what happened yesterday.
Personally, I feel there isn't much worth recording,
I woke up very early yesterday, basically as soon as it was just beginning to dawn.
At that time, I checked the time; it seemed to be a little after five in the morning, not yet six.
This time is truly, truly too early for me—especially since I have no intention of watching the sunrise—and I was working late the previous night, so I especially needed sleep. However, I still struggled to get up, I give myself a pat on the back.
On New Year's Day, I received many SMS greetings early in the morning, I started the new day in a great mood.
Yaji's SMS blessings were very punctual, the messages from my colleagues were sweet, but the time Zhenjun's SMS was sent.. was a bit strange.
I hope I'm not overthinking it, *ahem*.
The best thing is the SMS Sister sent me! However, compared to receiving Sister's blessing, I still hope more that she can recover quickly and focus on her recuperation.
To be honest, when she leaned back against the Hospital bed and smiled at me, I wanted so badly to hold her hand and act spoiled, to go out for a walk with her.
Anything is fine—shopping, eating, drinking milk tea, buying clothes.. I will accompany her in whatever she wants to do.
I can even pay for her; I have the ability to earn money now.. I would be happy to support Sister for the rest of her life.
But thinking about it.. the things Zhenjun gave his are enough for his to use for a lifetime.. maybe it's not even my turn?
So what if he's rich! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻┻
Even I, Zhenjun, am very angry!
Anyway, Happy New Year, everyone.
—PS: I also received SMS greetings from a few people I know but am not very close with. To be fair, they are all quite formidable, but I have no desire to deal with them.. I don't know why they would actually send me SMS greetings.
My intuition tells me this has something to do with Zhenjun.. As for whether it's accurate, I don't know.
New Year's Day should feel like New Year's Day, with things like buckwheat noodles and Mirror cake.
I must express my gratitude to Ran here; such a virtuous girl is truly lovely.. It feels a bit embarrassing to ask such things of him, after all, I am older than she is.
Afterward, I made plans with Yaji to visit the Shrine together. There were so many people at Senso-ji on New Year's Day.. but we had plenty of time.
It took several hours to complete the ritual of praying and drawing fortune slips. Considering Sister might not come to the Shrine due to her physical discomfort, Zhenjun.. I estimate he won't be coming back either, so I simply prayed for a few extra Amulets.
Anyway, it didn't say that everyone had to have one.
But what was surprising was that I actually saw Zhenjun, I even got the Amulet that Zhenjun gave me!
Although the one I was supposed to deliver didn't get sent out, I ended up with an extra one.. but this is an Amulet given by Zhenjun! Of course I have to keep it!
It looked as though he hadn't come alone—
So—
Ah, there's too much information; my brain has temporarily crashed.
Later, I heard that Zhenjun also requested an Amulet for Sister.
Even though Sister already had one, I still gave her the Amulet I had originally intended to give her.
Two amulets.. I also hope they can have double the magic, so that Sister can be safe and sound in the new year.
I hope everyone can be well.

January 3, 20xx, Weather: Light rain
..
Nothing interesting happened today.
I remember Yaji had originally made plans to meet up with his friend to play tennis, but since it was raining today, the meeting place seemed to have been changed to an indoor tennis court on short notice.
Speaking of which, Yaji's tennis is truly miraculous.
Forgive me for using the word "magical" to describe it; I am being sincere.
Since there is really nothing much to write about today, I will stop here for now.
I'm going to go cook.

January 4, 20xx, Weather: Light rain
..
The rain continued to fall in intermittent bursts, pitter-patter, pitter-patter, tapping against the eaves, falling onto the ground, into the bushes, onto the leaves—oh, on the umbrellas as well.
It was actually quite pleasant to listen to.
Of course, the reason I reached this conclusion is because I was sitting by the window this afternoon, listening to the sound of the rain since I had nothing else to do.
I didn't go out at all today, mainly because I was feeling lazy, since there wasn't much to do outside anyway, I just stayed at home.
I gave Sister a call, Sister's voice was still as beautiful as ever!
It sounds like there are no problems.. I hope Sister recovers soon.
By the way, I have an appointment to go shopping with Miss Ran tomorrow.
I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow! Really.
Although shopping on a rainy day is possible, it really ruins the mood QAQ
That's that!

January 5th, 20xx. Weather: Overcast to cloudy.
..
It's finally stopped raining, I'm so happy!
Just as written in yesterday's Diary, I have an appointment to go Shopping with Miss Ran today, along with another energetic girl who seems to be named Toyama Kazuha.
I seem to remember having seen her before, but I've forgotten when. However, I heard that her childhood friend is Hattori Heiji.. Okay, I know why now.
On the road, I also ran into a girl who looked very similar to Miss Ran.
The two of them looked incredibly similar, almost like looking into a mirror. When I turned around and saw that girl, I thought she was Miss Ran, so I mistook her for her..
How embarrassing!
But the girl didn't mind, after we exchanged a few words, this little interlude passed.
By the way, Miss Ran, do you really not have any twin sisters or anything like that?
It was called shopping, but I didn't have anything I wanted to buy, so I ultimately chose to buy a wrist guard for Yaji.
Miss Ran also bought a gift for her childhood friend, it was obvious she put a lot of heart into it. Hearing Toyama Kazuha teasing Miss Ran, she suddenly felt a sudden urge to have Yaji come over.
Stop showing off your affection! I have a boyfriend too, okay!
Anyway, time passed quickly. The three of us had a meal together, then we each went back to our own homes.
I have to mention that shopping is indeed a physical activity; it's so exhausting QAQ

Zhenjun suddenly came to my house.
It's quite rare, but I am very happy nonetheless.
Huh? You're asking about his behavior of just showing up at the door without saying a word?
Hmm.. I don't think that's important, you're talking as if I can influence his thoughts QAQ
Since I returned home very late yesterday and was also extremely exhausted, my "combat results" were tossed carelessly in the living room; they weren't particularly obvious, but they could still be noticed.
Zhenjun naturally saw it too.
However, when Zhenjun learned that those wristbands were a gift I bought for Yaji, he actually asked me if I had bought a gift for him..
Me??
Are you serious, Zhenjun?
What kind of Gift can I give you.. a knife or a gun? Or maybe a hawk and a helicopter? You don't even stop to think if someone with my tiny build could actually get those things QAQ
Okay, I knew you were joking.. even a cold joke is still a joke.
But next time, can you not be so frightening? I'm a bit panicked.

I received a Mission today, it looks like I'll be quite busy for the next few days.
Speaking of which, the missions I can access now are becoming more and more high-end, which inevitably reminds me of my early days.
