Chapter 36: We get along surprisingly well... No, forget it
By lunch break, the news had spread.
The three people from the Human Observation Department were called over by their advisory teacher, Koizumi Aona.
This time, we did not talk in the office, but in a reception room specially used for conversations. Usually, teachers and students have one-on-one exchanges here, and the content includes life, study, and further study goals.
Watanabe Toru guessed that Koizumi Aona chose this place on purpose because she was afraid that he would say something like "Teacher, I like you the most" in front of other teachers.
The three of them sat in a row, facing each other with Koizumi Aina. Watanabe Toru sat away from the other two, almost in the corner.
Not to mention, it feels reassuring.
"Can you tell the teacher what's going on?" asked Aona Koizumi.
Toru Watanabe and Miki Kujo did not say anything, and the department manager Rin Kiyono told them what happened in the morning.
After hearing this, Koizumi Aona smiled bitterly and looked at Watanabe Toru.
"Watanabe, didn't you tell me that the bet was for the position of Director of the Human Observation Department? How come it can be anything now?"
"Teacher Koizumi, you should ask the News Department and the Literature and Art Department about this matter. Oh, and also the stubborn Director Kiyono Rin and Miss Kujo Miki." Watanabe Toru shrugged as if it had nothing to do with him.
Koizumi Aona looked at Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki.
Qingye Rin responded: "Teacher, please rest assured that we will not lose."
"They are just a bunch of rabble. I can just send my men to deal with them, not to mention I have to do it myself." Kujo Miki said as she raised her feet, showing the full aura of a young lady.
Subordinates? Are they referring to me? ... Watanabe Toru guessed secretly.
"This... is not a question of whether to lose or not." The troubled Koizumi Aona patiently persuaded, "The school supports students competing in learning, but the content of the bet is 'anything goes' is not allowed."
"I agree." Watanabe Toru responded immediately.
Qing Ye Lin turned her head and showed a kind and gentle smile: "Watanabe, you are my member, I will protect you, and after you win first place, I will not let you make things difficult."
Watanabe Toru admitted that the woman Kiyono Rin was cute, just like no one could deny his handsomeness, but...
"Who do you think I'm guarding against by not agreeing to 'anything goes'?" he said unhappily.
"Ah," Qing Ye Lin put her hand on her chin and said in exaggerated surprise, "I favor you so much, and you are actually on guard against me?"
"Pamper me...thank you."
"You're welcome." Qing Ye Lin smiled brightly, "Protecting weak members is what I should do as a strong man and the captain."
Toru Watanabe had nothing to say. He was fed up with the bad behavior of the Tokyo ladies.
"Watanabe," Miss Kujo Miki glared at him with murderous eyes, "If you dare to flirt with this woman in front of me again, I will kill you."
"Flirting? Huh?" Toru Watanabe looked at Kiyono Rin.
Qingye Rin crossed her arms and smiled silently.
"Hey, why don't you refute it? Don't you never lie?!"
Qingye Rin still said nothing.
Damn! This woman is so cunning!
Watanabe Toru had no choice but to look at Koizumi Aona, "Teacher, you are a bystander, you should see it clearly, right?"
Koizumi Aona was very angry. She scolded: "Watanabe, what did the teacher tell you? You should be loyal to each other! How can you be with both of them at the same time... that!"
"ah?"
"You're still talking about the News Department? I think you have a problem with your thinking. Do you want to have your cake and eat it too? Write me a thousand-word self-criticism!"
"Teacher!" Watanabe Toru stood up, "Captain Kiyono, Miss Kujo, you two should talk!"
Miki Kujo snorted with a laugh, while Rin Kiyono, who never "tells" a lie, remained silent.
"You're still trying to make excuses and lie to the teacher, Watanabe. You really disappoint me! Five thousand words!"
These two women! Wait for me! ...Toru Watanabe really set his sights on being number one this time!
Although he is not obsessed with uniforms, he requires the two women to wear bunny girls on Mondays, pink nurse uniforms on Tuesdays, maid uniforms on Wednesdays, police uniforms on Thursdays, and sailor uniforms on Fridays in the club classroom.
Don't think about being idle on Saturdays and Sundays, you must wear lolita and witch costumes and send them to him ...
"Wait, selfie in shrine maiden costume..." Watanabe Toru crossed his fingers and placed them on his nose, "First place in the grade, I, Watanabe, got it!"
After coming out of the meeting room, if it weren't for the 5,000-word self-review, Toru Watanabe would have been in a very good mood.
It had nothing to do with uniforms or not - that kind of thing didn't matter at all. The main thing was that this was a rare, open and aboveboard opportunity to take revenge on the two women.
Kujo Miki returned to the classroom.
In order to subdue the enemy, no, for revenge, Toru Watanabe decided to study quietly in the club classroom.
Naturally, Kiyono Rin also went to the club classroom, which was where she had always taken her lunch break.
"Mr. Kiyono, who never lies, what you did just now is no different from lying, right?" Toru Watanabe said sarcastically while walking on the road.
"Did I lie?" Qing Ye Lin tilted her head, looking puzzled. After seeing Watanabe Toru's angry expression, she smiled happily and said, "It's just that I suddenly didn't want to talk at that time."
“…You are so mean.”
As if receiving high praise, Qing Ye Lin nodded with satisfaction: "Men don't love women unless they are bad. After 'playing hard to get', this is the fourth way to make you fall in love with me."
What are the two in the middle... If you ask this, you will definitely be ridiculed.
Watanabe Toru changed his words and said, "I like gentle and considerate girls. If you want me to fall in love with you, please work hard in this direction."
"No, Watanabe-san, I will twist your will and make you fall in love with me who is neither gentle nor considerate." After saying that, Qing Ye Lin looked at Watanabe Toru and asked with a smile: "Is it bad enough? "
"I admit that you are attractive, but I am not the type who values appearance. If your personality is not good, everything will be meaningless."
"Don't be too confident in yourself, Watanabe-san. Loving someone is not controlled by your will, it's like a mental illness. It's not what you want, but what it makes you do. That's what you have to do."
"In that case, does that mean that one day, Kiyono-san will also fall in love with me uncontrollably? "
Qingye Rin stopped, put her hand on her flawless chin, and fell into deep thought.
Watanabe Tetsuya paused, waiting for her answer maliciously: "You won't lie, right?"
Qingye Rin's face turned cold and returned to the expression she had when they first met. Her long, lead-like black hair swayed, and she walked up to the elevated corridor of the club building without saying a word.
"Hey, do you agree?" Watanabe Toru followed with a sneer.
"I don't want to talk right now."
"That's a default."
"Is your Chinese not good? Or is there something wrong with your ears? I told you I don't want to talk now." Qingye Rin quickened his pace.
"It's not shameful to fall in love with me. I'm smart and never slack off. I do radio gymnastics and swimming every day. I've recently mastered spoken English. I plan to learn Spanish next. I'm a young man who is making a name for myself and is destined to have a great future."
In the middle of the overhead corridor, Kiyono Rin stopped again and turned to look at the boastful Watanabe Toru.
"I will fall in love with you uncontrollably in the future - I admit that this is a possibility. After all, I am an honest person and I will not deny anything in the future . However, based on my personal true thoughts now, only a female ape with an unevolved brain will fall in love with you."
This sentence sounds so familiar... Watanabe Toru, who has a good memory, recalled it briefly and remembered where he had heard it.
On the day that Kujo Miki joined the Human Observation Department, he went to the teacher's office to report the situation. Akiko, who was eating snacks, asked him whether he liked Kiyono or Kujo. At that time, he also thought in his heart:
Only uncivilized male apes would fall in love with them desperately.
"Kiyono-san, maybe we will unexpectedly get along well." Watanabe Toru said sincerely.
Qingye Rin glanced at him with disdain and turned away.
"...I take back what I said just now." Watanabe Toru didn't care whether the other party heard it or not.
In short, the more he gets along with these two women, the stronger his determination to take first place becomes!
'Wear a maid outfit and pour me tea, cuff your hands in a police uniform, the hem of the nurse uniform must be short, and the shrine maiden uniform must have slits!'
While thinking about how to take revenge on the two of them, Toru Watanabe deliberately slowed down his pace and walked slowly towards the club classroom.
There are many people who go to the club building at noon. Some go there to study, while others have to study after school, so they use the lunch time to participate in club activities.
People coming and going would whisper to each other when they saw him.
Toru Watanabe even heard rumors that he was two-timing.
He had to speed up and catch up with Qingno Rin.
As the two walked side by side, the discussions around them began to become unbridled and louder, with no fear that the parties involved would hear them.
Watanabe Toru ignored the disdainful looks that Kiyono Rin gave him from time to time. At this moment, the most important thing was to let her help share the firepower.
