"So, Kato-kun... I mean, Yusuke, you also need to be prepared."
"Precisely... what are you preparing for?"
"Prepare to...call me "Hui"?"
Facing those crystal clear eyes, Kato Yusuke looked away from the other person.
The sunlight dances in the room, like a mirage in a hot broadcast.
After a while, he tactfully said: "Although it's not impossible, no matter which way you call it, Kato-san is still Kato-san, right?"
"...But you call Kasumigaoka-senpai Shiwa-senpai? It's a bit strange that you use that kind of polite address to your companions, isn't it? After all, we are all so familiar."
After a pause, the girl continued: "Besides... if I am the only one calling you by your name, it will always feel very embarrassing."
With a troubled expression, Hui's tone showed some dissatisfaction.
The soft light kissed the other person's cheek, revealing fair and flawless skin, dotted with a hint of rosy.
Perhaps because of the familiarity, the girl's behavior in front of him became more and more natural.
After being reminded by the other party, Kato Yusuke realized that he had indeed called Shiba-senpai by her name in front of the other party.
Although he only called it that way under the influence of An Yilun.
But when I think about it, it seems that there is no difference between the two.
So he simply nodded and said: "I understand, since Kato-san doesn't mind, I will call you by your first name from now on."
Facing his gaze, Hui took two steps forward slightly.
As if she was playing a prank, the girl put her hands behind her back and tilted her body and said, "Well, why don't you call me now and see?"
"No, there's no need to do this. Isn't it a bit too deliberate..." Kato Yusuke had a wry smile on his face.
The other person didn't speak, but just stared at him quietly.
A faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, tugging at the heartstrings.
In this warm and pleasant scene, Kato Yusuke's words rang out.
"Well, then, Hui."
There was a sense of helplessness in his tone.
A clear and shallow smile appeared on the girl's face, and then she said in a long voice: "Well - passed~~ Oh, Yusuke."
The pleasant sound reaches the ears, caressing the ears gently and infiltrating the soul.
…
After cleaning, Hui left first.
Kato Yusuke was the only one left in Noda's room for a while.
Sitting alone on the sofa, the boy held a mobile phone in his hand.
The white light from the screen hit his face, illuminating a pair of black pupils.
Line's communication interface was opened on the phone, and there was an additional friend with the ID "megumi". The avatar was Megumi herself, but with a short hair version.
Soon, he was invited to join two groups.
One is a class group named [1-E], and the other is a discussion group named [Six Pegasus Team].
Leaving aside the large group of 40 people in the front, the small group in the back has already exploded.
Most of these complaints came from the two Mangkhut brothers.
On the one hand, it was because he suddenly changed to a new mobile phone, and on the other hand, he registered a Line account but did not inform himself immediately.
If Hui hadn't pulled him into the group, the two of them would still have thought he was still using that old flip-top phone.
The two expressed severe condemnation and made countless remarks.
Kato Yusuke laughed it off and ignored it.
Just swipe twice with your finger, and three new friend requests were sent immediately.
They are: Yamaguchi Takashi, Takei Ichiro, and Himekawa Yoshiko.
Seeing this, he didn't hesitate at all and immediately approved several people's applications.
Until Kako mentioned that they planned to go to Liutianma Shopping Center during the holiday and asked him if he wanted to come with them.
The system suddenly experienced a wave of presence.
"Ding, you have started a new task, please check it carefully."
"[Liu Tianma's shopping trip (0/1)]."
"Task description: Accept this invitation and successfully increase or gain the favorability value of one of the members of the opposite sex."
"Task reward: 10,000 points."
"Warning: This mission may trigger irreversible consequences, please choose carefully."
After saying these words, the system disappeared silently again.
"——???"
A string of question marks slowly floated over Kato Yusuke's head, and the expression on his face couldn't help but freeze.
Immediately afterwards——
His face darkened, and he murmured with some suspicion: "What is this? Is there anything wrong in issuing such a task to a person who has a girlfriend?"
And as always, as if he only responded to specific instructions, no matter how he asked, the other party didn't respond at all.
After trying for a while to no avail, Kato Yusuke had no choice but to give up this act with a dark face.
'What does improving goodwill mean? Does it mean friendship? In this case, is it okay for Kako? But if it is so simple, does the system need to remind it specially?'
One question after another kept popping up in his mind, making him unable to help but fall into thinking.
Kako and the others are still waiting for his reply.
"I mean, do you want to come or not? Kato-san."
Perhaps because he waited too long, the other party also @@ him and sent a dog question mark emoticon along with it.
Kato Yusuke suddenly became hesitant.
As I tapped the screen with my fingers, Line's software was inadvertently closed.
What caught his eye was a face that was somewhere between cute and beautiful.
The girl in the picture is smiling like a flower, a little shy, and making a victory gesture with her hand.
You can feel the joy even through the screen.
It felt like a heavy hammer had been struck in my heart.
The scene from a few days ago came to mind.
"I always feel that Yusuke has been around more and more girls recently. Would you be angry if I set the background of my photo like this?"
Sayu's voice rang in my ears.
Gradually, Kato Yusuke's expression returned to calm.
Then he reopened the Line interface and entered the discussion group of [Six Pegasus Team].
The boy typed something like this: "Sorry, I have other arrangements during the summer vacation. I wish you all a good time."
Yoshiko: "Huh? But I heard from Yamaguchi-san that it seems to be quite close to Kato-san's house. It only takes one day."
The other party tried to continue to persuade him.
So Yusuke then entered a paragraph: "Well, because I want to take my girlfriend back to my hometown at that time, I probably won't have much time, so forget it."
"Dong——"
As the software sent sound effects, the discussion group suddenly became quiet.
Just like the silence in the room.
Holding the phone in his hand, the boy said to himself: "Well, so this is good."
The sunshine outside the window was blocked by clouds, and the delicate face was also submerged in shadow.
