I thought that the conversation for that day was over, but when there were still ten minutes left before school was over, there was a knock on the door.

Thinking that Keisuke Saito might be looking for him again because of the game, Watanabe Toru got up and walked over - taking care of Kujo Miki's mysophobia, he was trying not to let people enter the private human observation department now.

Opening the sliding door, standing at the door was a petite and cute female high school student with short hair.

"Senior, Watanabe-senpai!"

"If you have any questions about the oboe, please wait until the instruction time to ask." Watanabe Toru closed the door.

At that moment, Mai Horikita took advantage of her petite body and slipped into the Human Observation Department.

Watanabe Toru could have stretched out his hand to stop her, but he hesitated slightly between 'touching the girl's body' and 'letting the girl enter the Human Observation Department', and he chose the latter.

"Good afternoon, Kiyono-senpai." Horikita Mai said hello while looking at the club classroom curiously.

Bookshelves, refrigerators, televisions, game consoles, sofas, and hangers for hanging maid uniforms, these things dazzled her.

"Good afternoon." Qingye Rin responded calmly, pretending not to talk to me.

Watanabe Toru closed the door and brought Horikita Mai a chair where Ichimoku Aoi and the others used to sit.

"Thank you, senior."

"What's the matter?" Toru Watanabe sat down in his seat and opened "Thumping Heartbeat".

"Senpai!" Horikita Mai pressed her hand on the cover of "Thumping Heartbeat", "Go on a date with me after school!"

"Sorry, I'm not interested in girls younger than me." Toru Watanabe took out the book and added: "Except for my K-san."

"What about Senior Qingye? By the way, Senior has the same birthday as you, so she is not younger than your senior."

"Horikita-san, there is one more thing I want to remind you," Rin Kiyono said, looking at the book in his hand. "He likes me more than his K-san."

Watanabe Toru turned to look at her: "What are you talking about?"

"Did I say something wrong?" Qingye Rin raised his head and asked, tilting his head slightly.

"...Wrong is correct, but it is only temporary. Soon I will love K-san even more."

Qingye Rin lost interest, returned his eyes to the book, and said: "It's completely impossible, you can't do it, give up."

Without arguing with her, Watanabe Toru looked at the curious Horikita Mai: "The matter is over, you can go back."

"Hmm - why is senior so colder than before?"

"I'm afraid you'll fall in love with me."

"Is it because of this?" Horikita Mai said in surprise, "But I have already fallen in love with senior!"

"Then give up as soon as possible. By the way, I won't guide you from today on."

"I hate it. I'm just joking. You're so heartless, senior! Huh!" Horikita Mai pouted, "Senior Kiyono, let's go on a date after school. I give up, senior!"

"No time." Qingye Rin refused without thinking.

"Ah——" Horikita Mai wailed in frustration, "Senior Kiyono is indeed as ruthless as I thought."

After saying that, she immediately covered her mouth and looked at Qingye Rin in fear.

"Senior, Watanabe-senpai," she lowered her petite body and said secretly, "Senior Kiyono won't be angry, right?"

"You can rest assured on this, she is never angry." Toru Watanabe said in a confident tone.

"That's it, that's great." Horikita Mai patted her small chest, "Phew, I was scared to death. I almost thought I was going to be hated by my senior sister."

"Although she is not angry, she will get into trouble. Once she gets into trouble..."

"It's scary?" Horikita Mai's round eyes like small animals stared at Watanabe Toru.

"Scary? She has always been scary. It doesn't matter whether she makes trouble or not."

Horikita Mai nodded in agreement, then quickly shook her head.

She skipped this already scary topic and asked: "What will happen if the senior sister gets into trouble?"

"How should I put it?" Toru Watanabe tapped "Pumping Heartbeat" with his fingers, "Cute, very cute, super cute, I just want people to keep making her angry and make her quarrel all the time."

"Um," the school girl raised her hand, "Senior, I've been having a question. Are you a jerk?"

"yes."

"..." Watanabe Toru, who was about to answer, turned to look at Kiyono Rin who was reading a book.

After playing the warning - thinking to himself, he looked away and said to Mai Horikita:

"This is not a question of whether to shake or not, it is necessary to change yourself for the people you like and the people who like you."

"Senior!" Horikita Mai opened her eyes in admiration, "You must have experienced many Shura fields, you are so good at making excuses!"

Watanabe Toru turned to Kiyono Rin and said, "Can this child talk?

"Watanabe-san," Rin Kiyono said, "If you want to become great, you must get used to and take the initiative to listen to the truth that you don't like."

"You really can't talk, I mean you two!"

"Hehehe~" Horikita Mai let out a unique Gengar snicker.

"I'm not complimenting you."

"I know, but here, senior, being able to get scolded together with Senior Qingye shows that I am close to senior."

"School is over soon. Go back if you have nothing to do." Toru Watanabe began to chase people away.

"Actually, I invited senior to go on a date with me because I wanted to buy you a birthday gift. I also wanted to get some advice from senior to see what Seiye-senpai likes."

"birthday present?"

"Hmm." Horikita Mai put her hands between the pleated skirt and the chair, "Everyone, including me, knows nothing about Kiyono-senpai's preferences. Only Watanabe-senpai can ask her what she likes.

, the others are not good at all, it’s difficult to even talk to them.”

"I see." Toru Watanabe nodded, "I can help you, but..."

"No need." Qingye Rin suddenly said, "I won't accept your gifts."

"But everyone is ready to give gifts to the seniors, and some seniors have even bought them."

"Then please tell them that I don't need it." Qingye Rin replied nonchalantly.

Horikita Mai secretly tugged on Watanabe Toru's sleeve: "Senior, please advise my senior, this will change her from being popular to being hated."

"By the way, I won't accept it either." Toru Watanabe pulled back his sleeve, "I don't know if anyone has given me a gift. If so, please tell me."

"Hey - why?! Senior, didn't you receive chocolates for Valentine's Day?"

"How do you know?" Valentine's Day happened in February, when Toru Watanabe was still a freshman in high school.

"Everyone knows about senior. By the way, senior, it is said that you spent hundreds of thousands of yen in total on the white plot's return gift. Is it true?" Horikita Mai asked curiously.

"Really." Toru Watanabe said, "That's why I don't accept gifts. It would cost too much to return a gift. Do you understand?"

"So that's it. I thought the senior was worried that if I didn't accept my senior, she would be isolated and disliked, so I didn't accept her myself, so I could share the pressure for my senior."

"She is hated and isolated. What does it have to do with me? I only care about my own money." Toru Watanabe said.

"Okay, what about me? Senior can always accept the gift I gave you, right? Senior has been teaching me the oboe." Horikita Mai blinked pitifully.

"Treat everyone equally and do not accept anything."

At this time, the school bell rang, and Horikita Mai had no choice but to give up acting coquettishly and hurried back to the music club to tell those members who were going to buy gifts.

"You don't have to do this." Qingye Rin closed the book and put it into her bag.

"It's not all because of you." Toru Watanabe made the same move, "I know my own charm. Sometimes if I just smile casually, someone will take it the wrong way, so it's better to be less popular like you."

"Not welcome?" Qingye Rin put her schoolbag on her shoulders.

"As long as you understand what I want to express, it doesn't matter what the wording is."

"Coward." She walked out of the club classroom.

"Coward?" Toru Watanabe followed.

"You don't dare to scold me directly. You just want to take the opportunity to tease me in this way. If you are not a coward, you are shrinking."

Watanabe Toru took the key and locked the door: "I said it was just a loose choice of words, and I have sworn not to curse or say a single curse word in my life."

"Oh, the oath of "Tokyo Handsome Guy"."

"If you continue to look down on "Tokyo Handsome Guys", I'm going to scold you."

After locking the door, Rin Kiyono spread his white palm, and Toru Watanabe put the key on it.

The two of them walked towards the stairs, entering June. The sun was no longer setting outside the window when school was over, and the sky was still bright.

"Scold me? I'm a little curious. "Tokyo Handsome Guy" is a coward, that's all. Let's scold him."

"You scold me when you ask me to? Who are you to me?"

"He is indeed a coward."

"You are a woman with nothing but cuteness, intelligence, honesty, nice hair, a nice voice, beautiful legs, a slim waist, and a good understanding of my accidents."

Rin Qingye put his hand on his chin and said with a smile: "You have said so much, why don't you just say 'I love you'?"
