Yasuo Hazuki couldn't constantly pay attention to Renji Kamisaka. He was an exchange student from Toshōbu High School, so adapting to Soubu High and getting along with his peers was his primary task. He couldn't bring shame to his school. Therefore, during the breaks of the next few classes, he didn't approach Renji Kamisaka to talk.
Finally, lunch break arrived.
Renji Kamisaka took the initiative to walk up to Yasuo Hazuki and Runa Kusami, inviting them with a smile. "Yasuo Hazuki, and Runa Kusami, it's lunch break now. If you don't mind, I'll take you to visit our facilities at Soubu High."
"Alright, I'll leave it to you." Yasuo Hazuki felt very happy being called by his nickname, Hose. Runa Kusami also nodded slightly, agreeing to the invitation.
"Why don't we go to the library first? Sumireko likes to stay there," Renji Kamisaka suggested with a faint smile. In reality, Sumireko wasn't in the library at all, but in the Service Club.
Yasuo Hazuki's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly. "Alright, I haven't seen Sumireko in a long time." He said happily, not noticing Runa Kusami's disappointed expression behind him. Yasuo Hazuki's feelings for Sumireko Sanshokuin made him very single-minded. Although he and Momo were always with him, Yasuo never paid attention to their feelings for him. It was the same now. He only cared about seeing Sumireko and didn't notice Runa's disappointment at all.
"Then, let's go!" Yasuo Hazuki didn't care, so Renji Kamisaka naturally wouldn't suddenly care too much about Runa Kusami. He just pretended not to see it and led the way.
On the way, Momo Sakurabara suddenly jumped out from around a corner.
"Hey, Hose, what a coincidence!" she exclaimed cheerfully. "And Runa Kusami, Wu." She patted Yasuo Hazuki's shoulder, greeted Runa Kusami, and looked at Renji Kamisaka with feigned curiosity. "And this is..."
Yasuo Hazuki smiled brightly and introduced him, "This is the class monitor of Class F, Renji Kamisaka." Then turning to Renji, "Renji Kamisaka, this is Momo, the student council president of our Toshōbu High School. We all call her Sakura."
"Hi, hello, Renji Kamisaka, I'm Momo Sakurabara, please give me your guidance." She winked at him playfully, shifted her body, and extended her soft little hand to him. As she moved, her prominent chest also jiggled slightly, attracting Renji's attention.
Renji Kamisaka raised his eyebrows and also extended a hand to shake hands with the beautiful big-breasted senior. "Please give me your guidance. May I call you Sakura?"
"Of course!" Momo Sakurabara readily agreed with a wide smile.
So Renji Kamisaka made an invitation. "Since we've met and you're familiar with each other, why don't we go to the library together? We have a very comprehensive book collection at Soubu High." He added with a slight smile, "But I don't know if you like reading. I myself like reading because of Sumireko. If you have any other places you'd like to visit, please tell me."
"No problem! We like reading too. Let's go to the library first," Momo Sakurabara noticed that Hose was stimulated by Renji Kamisaka's words and agreed with a smile.
"I haven't seen Sumireko in a long time. In fact, we were good friends with Sumireko in junior high school," Yasuo added enthusiastically.
Renji Kamisaka smiled and nodded. "I know. Sumireko told me." He continued in a slightly teasing tone, "Back in junior high school, thanks to Sakura and Tsukimi for taking care of Sumireko. If you need any help, please ask me." He affirmed, "I also want to repay your kindness on Sumireko's behalf."
What he said made Yasuo Hazuki's face darken slightly. Momo Sakurabara and Runa Kusami were also a little embarrassed. Couldn't he not bring up topics that weren't related? How uncomfortable was Hose when Renji always spoke as Sumireko's boyfriend?
Renji Kamisaka led the three of them to the library. However, Sumireko Sanshokuin was not there. Instead, his chosen secretary, Kawasaki Saki, was the acting librarian.
"Hey, Kawasaki, you're acting again today. Where's Sumireko?" Renji asked, as if he already knew the answer.
Kawasaki Saki rolled her eyes. This guy asks even though he knows the answer. But she still answered truthfully. "Sanshokuin went to the club activity room. I'm still the acting librarian at the moment." She looked at Renji Kamisaka with a complicated gaze. There was gratitude, emotion, and a little emotion that she didn't even realize herself.
Yesterday afternoon, Kawasaki Saki called Yukinoshita Haruno and met with the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita Chaebol. Then arrangements were made. Usually, she still studied at school, and in the afternoon during club activities, she followed Haruno to see the world and run businesses. Of course, there was no salary. After all, she was still a student and came to learn. Haruno just gave her a reasonable excuse. It was just an excuse to take the money Renji Kamisaka had given. As for the business, it was naturally about the game company. The SAO Virtual Reality Game was currently undergoing testing and would soon be publicly tested. She believed that virtual reality games would be playable soon. Although there was no salary, it might be very fortunate to be led by Miss Haruno. This was an opportunity that couldn't be bought with money.
After listening to Kawasaki Saki's words, Renji Kamisaka looked at Yasuo Hazuki apologetically. "Sorry, I forgot that Sumireko joined a club yesterday. I guess she won't be coming to the library these days."
Yasuo Hazuki was very disappointed that he couldn't see Sumireko.
Momo Sakurabara asked curiously. "Renji, may I ask which club Sumireko joined?"
"Of course you can, it's the Service Club established by Yukinoshita Yukino from Class J. The club's activities are to help others solve problems, similar to the existence of Yorozuya, although it hasn't received any commissions so far."
Runa Kusami looked at him and said, "Renji Kamisaka knows very well."
Renji Kamisaka's mouth curved, "Because I also joined this club." He continued, "Let's not talk about this for now. Since we're here, I'll introduce you to the library management of Soubu High. You can see how it differs from your Toshōbu High." Renji added with an enthusiastic tone, "Let's communicate together, make progress together, and strive to find better methods."
What else could Yasuo Hazuki and the others do after hearing him say that? They could only agree.
So, lunch was also sorted out in the library. Renji Kamisaka took out the love bento made by Sayu. Yasuo Hazuki had bentos made by Runa Kusami and Momo Sakurabara, each giving him one.
Renji Kamisaka sighed, seemingly impressed. "You can actually eat the bentos of two beautiful girls, Sakura and Tsukimi, simultaneously. You're really popular, Yasuo."
"It's nothing. I can't compare to you, Renji Kamisaka. I think the boys in class seem to envy you," Yasuo retorted with a hint of bitterness.
Renji Kamisaka smiled and waved his hand. "Let them envy me. I don't care." He then continued in a more serious tone, "But... Yasuo, what do you think of Sakura and Tsukimi?"
Hearing this, Momo Sakurabara and Runa Kusami breathed faster and unconsciously looked at Yasuo Hazuki.
Yasuo Hazuki said naturally, "She's very beautiful and amazing, but don't get me wrong, we're just friends." He continued in a proud yet slightly naive tone, "Sakura has a fan club at Toshōbu High and is very popular. As my childhood sweetheart, Tsukimi has many suitors." He chuckled, "Haha, I don't know why, they don't want to date anyone else."
Runa Kusami and Momo Sakurabara rolled their eyes. What an idiot. When they heard this answer, their hearts were pierced. They rejected so many suitors and stayed with you. Don't you understand?
