Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika were sitting on a bench and talking. They didn't see someone walking around hidden in the crowd not far away, and they were observing the conversation between the two of them.
Tendo walked back and forth. Except for two non-important targets, Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika, he didn't see the scene he expected. He originally thought that Natsuki was popular enough to open a harem. After all, they were from abroad.
International high school students are indeed more likely to be noticed than ordinary local high school students.
At least in terms of rarity, they are not on the same level at all.
But this does not mean that they will allow such scumbag behavior that is enviable but not hateful to exist!
Tendo's purpose is to confirm whether the "international friend" is going further and further down the wrong path, and if so, to quickly bring him back.
But now it seems that Tendou didn't notice that the other girls in the class were nearby. He couldn't even find anyone else, as if they had all turned into air. But Tendou was not responsible for this, he
His mission is just to identify two people, Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika, who are slightly "insignificant" to him.
Originally Tendo wanted to find someone else, but he couldn't let that idiot Qingfeng come over, otherwise he would definitely be discovered. Just like what happened on the first floor just now, that idiot actually used potato chips as newspapers, and he was so scared.
Qingfeng wanted to run out of the mall and disown the matter.
Fortunately, the winner in life did not pay attention to the surroundings and ignored the idiot. After the two of them finished shopping, they went up to the second floor. Qingfeng was exiled to other tasks. This was easy but 100% stupid.
The task of getting enough food can only be done by yourself.
However, the other girls in the same class are also worth paying attention to, although Tendo thinks that they probably just want to stop by to visit the mall. He doesn't know if others have found them. Tendo decided to call and ask.
The phone rang for a while, and then the call was answered: "Hello?"
"What's wrong, Tendo? What happened to you over there?"
Tiantong frowned. He was calling Qingfeng. Maybe it was quite noisy on the first floor of the shopping mall. He felt that Qingfeng's voice was a bit unclear.
"Nothing, just calling to ask if things are going well with you there? Have you found the girls' camp?"
"...All found. Where are you?"
"Me? I'm watching Xia Zhi and the others at the elevator entrance on the second floor."
"Okay, we'll be right over."
come over?
Before Tendou could come back to his senses and ask questions, the call had already been hung up. He suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked towards the elevator and saw one or two familiar figures walking through the moving crowd.
When they came out, they were wearing the same school uniforms as themselves. They should be Qingfeng and the others.
But...one, two, three, four...seven?
Tentong rubbed his eyes and continued to look at the elevator. The people who were still in the crowd had already stepped on the escalator and began to move slowly to the second floor. Tentong could see clearly that Qingfeng and the others were indeed among these people.
Inside, but he counted correctly, there were indeed seven people wearing the same school uniform as himself, including them.
It's going to happen!
Tendou was about to run, but suddenly a chill surged up, covering his whole body, making him unable to move. It was the threatening look from the elevator that was getting closer and closer.
"Good afternoon, Tendo-san."
"Exit, good afternoon, Nagahara-san."
Tendo looked at the other party's polite smile and felt that the weather, which had been slightly warmer, had dropped by more than ten degrees in an instant, which was a chill that was about to reach freezing point.
You traitors! Did you bring the enemy here?
With such eyes, Tendou looked at his "companions" among these seven people. They all turned their heads away in shame, not daring to look at him.
"What are you doing here, Tendo-san?"
"Just, I just came here to buy some things with them, and I happened to meet you. What a fate, hahahaha."
"But, I think I heard the words 'Xia Zhi and the others' on the phone just now, is that right?"
Nagahara raised her hand, and Tendo saw the mobile phone in her hand that should have belonged to Qingfeng.
So, the person who just spoke to me wasn’t even Tendou!? Isn’t it too real?
Can I apply to change teammates?
"Ah, I just happened to see them here. They are right in front. Do you want to go and say hello or something?"
"Tendou-san." Nagahara took a step forward. He didn't use much force, but he carried the momentum of a king. Tendo felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat: "If you get in the way, you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow.
oh."
"Alas!"
May next to her secretly poked her: "Aiko... there will be no sun tomorrow."
"Idiot, I'm just giving you an example." Nagahara replied quietly to her.
In any case, Nagahara's goal has been achieved. Tendo probably won't, or has no chance, to get in the way.
Really, if the senior from the foreign school hadn't discovered these idiots in the same class who were sneaking around and didn't know what they wanted to do, this matter might have been messed up by them. If it was really messed up.
…
Nagahara glanced at the trembling boys with murderous eyes.
The total of eight people in a circle shrank back to a place where Xia Zhi and the two of them could not be seen, and neither of them could be seen.
"So, what are you doing here? If you don't make it clear, the consequences... you know, right?"
The four boys stood together and winked. Nagahara crossed his arms and watched the "silent" exchange between them expressionlessly.
"Ah hahahaha, Aiko is still as scary as ever."
May was smiling heartlessly beside her.
"After all, Aiko has often contacted Lihua in the kendo club before. By the way, how are Lihua and the other two doing?"
"Hmm... the way you are still talking, it feels like the atmosphere is very ordinary."
"Don't you feel your heart pounding when you are with Lihua? You are such a difficult foreigner."
"But that senior from the other school is also so beautiful."
Because May revealed a reality that cannot be ignored, the scene became slightly silent.
"Lihua is really working hard. But in this case, Xia Zhi can be regarded as a boy with serious sins?"
"It seems like that can be said?"
"After all, he is a rare character like a real-life light novel male protagonist. He is also a foreign transfer student and slow. There aren't many people like him in reality anymore, right?"
"Although it's very rude, but now I feel like I'm watching a TV series, hehe."
"It's really rude! But it shouldn't develop into such a bloody situation, right?"
"You are obviously very interested in it yourself!"
"Keep your voice down!"
Xia Zhi, who was being watched not far away, suddenly felt very uncomfortable, as if there were many pairs of eyes staring at him, which was a little bit hairy.
I looked around and found that it was just my illusion.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing... It's probably just an illusion." Xia Zhi shook his head, took out his cell phone and looked at it: "It's been so long, has Ryoko still not replied to you?"
"Well. Let me call her again."
"I'll give Tachibana a call here, too. If we continue to wait until the shopping is finished, it's almost time for dinner."
"Hey, Xia Zhijun, are you hungry already?"
"I'm not hungry, but if someone can't eat at meal time, he will start to act up..." Anyway, there is a high probability that Tachibana Aya will forget to eat because he is wandering around with Yamamoto Ryoko and the others, and then he will be hungry.
Suddenly he remembered and frantically called Xia Zhi asking for food. His tone told her to call and disturb him, so it would be better to call her first and ask her to end it quickly.
"Well...I still haven't gotten through to Liangzi."
"I'm also, oh, connected."
As soon as the call was connected, there was a considerable amount of noise from the other side of the phone, which made Xia Zhi have to take the phone away from his ear.
"Hello?"
Tachibana Aya's voice was faintly audible.
"Where are you? Why is it so noisy?"
"Me? Yamamoto-chan and I are on the fourth floor."
The voice on the other end of the phone made Xia Zhi feel a little uneasy.
"Where is the fourth floor? Why is it so noisy?"
"Oh. The fourth floor is the game room."
Xia Zhi's uneasiness came true.
"You! Say! You! Are! Doing! What!?"
Xia Zhi asked word for word.
"Oops... Yamamoto-chan, Natsuki is angry."
"Um!?"
Although it was faint, Xia Zhi still heard Yamamoto Ryoko's tongue-tied voice. She was probably eavesdropping nearby. But, was her tongue-tied action serious? She actually dared to tongue-tied?
"We have already bought all our things. If we can't get up, you two should come down to the bench near the elevator entrance on the second floor."
"Coming, coming."
Then he hung up the phone.
Sure enough, he shouldn't have agreed to bring her here at that time. Although this was also Lihua's request, Natsuki felt that he really couldn't handle the two of them, Yamamoto Ryoko and Tachibana Aya. It was okay to only have one, and he could always think of a way.
Together they are too destructive.
"Is it Tachibana-senpai? Ryoko is here too?"
"Well...I asked them to come over right away."
"If we are looking for Ryoko and the others, can we go down to find them? Isn't the food area on the first floor?"
"...They are upstairs."
"..."
Probably Shiraishi Rika didn't know what to say, so she also fell silent.
After waiting for less than a few minutes, a bunch of people suddenly appeared from the elevator. Xia Zhi looked at it and saw that there were four more people than when he came from the school. It was Qingfeng and the others, yes, but they were okay.
.
"Hey, Natsuki? You guys are here too. That's right, after all, Nagahara and the others are here too." Tendou looked at him in surprise.
Xia Zhi thought about it and decided not to expose them.
"Why are you here?"
"We heard that there is an event in this mall, so we came to see if there are any good things."
This sentence is quite natural. I have probably prepared a confession with the girl before, and now I am just repeating it again.
Xia Zhi's intuition is sometimes surprisingly accurate.
"There are indeed activities going on here today, but..."
Xia Zhi looked at the empty hands of all eight of them and was speechless.
Hmm? Eight people?
Natsuki looked in the crowd: "Where are Tachibana and Yamamoto?"
"As for Ryoko, she and Tachibana-senpai separated from us."
May raised her hand to answer.
Did you come here together to play separately?
Xia Zhi controlled the urge to hold his head in his hands.
"Warrior, Ryoko Yamamoto is back again!" Ryoko Yamamoto emerged from the crowd next to her. Tachibana Aya followed her. Xia Zhi saw that she seemed to want to imitate it again, and quickly used her fierce eyes to
Stopped her.
"So, are Shiraishi and I the only ones who have bought something?"
The originally lively scene fell silent.
"It's a small thing. The mall is not big, so you can finish all the shopping in a short time." Tachibana Aya tried to defend, and then said, "So is there anything else you haven't bought?" Xia Zhi almost decided to try to starve her for a meal today. What would happen?
Wonderful chemical reaction.
"It doesn't matter. It's not too late to buy it now, let's go together."
"Woooooo, Lihua is the best!"
Ryoko Yamamoto slipped behind Rika Shiraishi, hugged her with both hands, and then made faces at Natsuki on her shoulders.
So angry, this naughty kid.
Xia Zhi turned around and looked at Qingfeng and the other four boys.
"What about you? Do you want to come too?"
"Okay... I want to say this, but we still have to go to nearby places, so let's leave first. See you at school tomorrow." Unable to withstand the pressure from Nagahara Aiko next to him, Tendou dragged San
A companion is preparing to run away.
Tomorrow? Isn’t tomorrow a weekend?
Xia Zhi was a little confused, and then he remembered that tomorrow was the time for preparation activities.
I almost forgot.
After that, I walked around the mall again. Since I had already walked around the entire floor with Shiraishi Rika beforehand, I basically found everything I wanted to buy, so I didn’t have to spend more time looking for it, so it was pretty quick to buy it.
There are really not many things left, but the quantity is a bit big. In addition to Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika, there are also five girls in the same class, plus a Tachibana Aya who came over temporarily to make up for the ingredients.
With a little bit of sharing, everyone got a pretty easy portion.
And just like what I thought before, that discount coupon is really inexhaustible, and there are still more than ten coupons left. When walking out of the mall, Xia Zhi threw in the remaining dozen coupons.
Although it is very wasteful, there is nothing we can do about it. Today is the last day, and probably no one will need such a large number of discount coupons. The only difference is whether to throw it away now or wait until the time has passed.
.
But I probably won’t come here to buy food in the future. There should be a place closer to the school, at least you don’t have to walk this far.
After sending the girls to a nearby tram stop, Natsuki and Tachibana Aya began to return to the coffee shop.
