Officer Hagiwara Is Stealing the Pen

Also known as: What Is a Fanfic Girl Who Has Had Her Pen Snatched by Hagiwara Her Whole Life Supposed to Do?

Hagiwara had a secret: he seemed to be able to hear the thoughts of the "gods" of this world.

Most of the time, the "gods" treated them kindly, but every now and then they had a mischievous streak.

And Hagiwara discovered that, if he wanted to, he could easily change the plot the "gods" had planned for them.

For example, at a mixer, his childhood friend was across the room, shoveling food into his mouth, while Hagiwara was having a wonderful time surrounded by girls. Suddenly, he heard the "gods" speak:

[Maybe Matsuda should get jealous, and we can have a few people crowd around him too. How about a mutual misunderstanding to move the romance along?]

Hagiwara jolted: No other guys are allowed near my little Jinpei!

So Hagiwara left the girls and suddenly squeezed in beside his childhood friend, trying to stake his claim in front of everyone else.

Matsuda, still focused on his food: "? What are you doing?"

Hagiwara glanced sideways, picked up a jug of vinegar, and asked his childhood friend, "Little Jinpei, want some vinegar?"

The fanfic girl "god": [That's not what getting jealous means! Well, I guess that'll do...]

Another time, Hagiwara wanted to confess his feelings to his childhood friend. After some hesitation, he decided to wait for a good opportunity to tell him later.

Then he heard the "gods" speak again:

[Great, the flag is set. From today on, the knives will keep falling, and he'll never get to say those words of confession.]

Hagiwara abruptly changed course, turned around, and made a heartfelt confession to his childhood friend.

The fanfic girl: [...Wait! Hagiwara, I know you like little Jinpei, but there's no need to rush things this much! We haven't even set the flag yet!]

And then there was the childhood friend of a certain Public Security classmate next door, who seemed to have come back from the dead.

The "gods" spoke again:

[Great, now they "don't know each other." They'll have to go through plenty of push and pull before they figure out who the other person is, and they'll only get their happy ending after overcoming countless hardships!]

Hagiwara: Sou desu ne.

And with that, Hagiwara went right over and pulled the secret identities off both Public Security officers.

The fanfic girl: [Wait... Hagiwara? Hagiwara, what are you doing! Why are you stealing my pen again?!]

Hagiwara: No need to thank me. I'm the best at stealing pens.
