Why do they take Tokyo's boyfriend rental seriously?

Chapter 5 Southern Hemisphere?
At 15 p.m., it's time for afternoon tea.

Shibuya Crossing is already busy, and so is Starbucks, with a long line inside and the store packed with people.

Japanese people are very keen on queuing. They believe that something that many people are waiting for must be something valuable and good. The longer the queue, the better the thing.

Moreover, under the influence of the culture of collective consciousness, everyone is very orderly while queuing, there is no noise, and no one deliberately cuts in line.

Ryuichi Sugawara actually doesn't like queuing. He thinks it's a complete waste of time and he doesn't like to follow the trend. But this time, he was surprisingly patient while queuing.

Because Yamabuki Tsuki stood in front of him, holding his hand, and did not let go even after leaving the crowded intersection and coming to the store.

Why were the positions reversed? It was because Yamabuki Tsuki was familiar with the rules of renting a boyfriend... For example, she had to cover all expenses during the date, and she was naturally the one who took the responsibility of ordering and paying.

It took twenty minutes for Sugawara Ryuichi and Yamabukizuki to get their coffee.

Fortunately, a couple just left the store, leaving two seats vacant.

"A lot of people."

Sitting on the second-floor seat of Starbucks, Shan Chuiyue looked through the glass curtain wall at the densely packed pedestrians coming and going at the intersection, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although I had this feeling when I was there, it was really shocking to look down at the grand scene at the intersection from a high vantage point.

"Many animations have similar shots, the overhead perspective of the intersection."

Ryuichi Sugawara also saw the scenery outside and had a strong sense of déjà vu.

It was clearly his first time in Shibuya, but he was surprisingly familiar with this scene.

"Sugawara, do you still watch anime?"

Yamabukizuki was surprised to hear his comments.

Although she and Sugawara Ryuichi rarely communicated at school, even if they did talk, it was always in class.

But the other party is a big celebrity in Takeno High School. For example, he has been ranked first in his grade for three consecutive years, and he received a lot of chocolates on Valentine's Day. He is also an unkind nerd who only knows how to study and never goes out to play with friends.

"I watched it when I was a kid, how about you?"

Ryuichi Sugawara actually hasn't watched much anime in his life. He was busy studying and didn't delve into this topic.

"I watched things like Sailor Moon when I was in elementary school, but I stopped watching them after junior high."

Because he has also watched anime, Yamabuki Tsuki is not worried about being seen as an otaku, and he said frankly.

"Sailor Moon?"

After learning about her favorite anime, Sugawara Ryuichi considered the answer and couldn't help but glance at her sideways.

The Sailor Moon IP is a household name in Japan.

Although it is Neon in a parallel world, many things in this world actually have many similarities with the island country in the previous life, mainly in the field of various sports.

"What did you mean by the look you gave me just now?"

Yamabukizuki always felt that the glance he gave her just now had a deep meaning.

"Sorry, sorry, I was just wondering what you would look like in a sailor suit."

Realizing that she had noticed him, forcibly denying it would only put him in a low position. While apologizing, Sugawara Ryuichi also expressed his true thoughts.

"I thought you thought Sailor Moon wasn't my style... I wore a sailor uniform in high school."

Knowing the meaning of that look, Shan Chuiyue breathed a sigh of relief and spoke again.

"You've worn a sailor uniform? Cosplay?"

"It's a high school uniform. I like Sailor Moon, so when I applied to high school, I chose a high school that had sailor uniforms." "You're kidding, right? Do you have a picture? Can I see it?"

Ryuichi Sugawara was surprised to discover that she had such a past.

Although many schools in Japan use sailor suits as their school uniforms, sailor suits are not the same as JK uniforms and there are essential differences.

"No."

Yamabuki Tsuki decisively rejected this request.

"Why? Since it's a school uniform, many people have seen it, right? There's no need to be ashamed."

Sugawara Ryuichi didn't understand why she refused.

If it's cosplay, it's normal to be embarrassed to see others, but it's different for school uniforms.

"I don't have any photos of my school days on my phone, so I can't show you."

Although this is the truth, Yamabukizuki still firmly refused.

There was really no need for her to be ashamed of the way she looked in a sailor suit, but that was because all her classmates were wearing it at the time. Now, after so many years, she always felt ashamed to let Sugawara Ryuichi see photos of her wearing a sailor suit.

"Ok."

Seeing her repeated refusals, Sugawara Ryuichi realized that she was reluctant and stopped forcing him. She was very self-conscious.

"Let's talk about it later when we have a chance."

Seeing him give up, Shanbukiyue felt a little reluctant and also added an agreement.

"It's a word."

Seeing that she had added to the agreement, Sugawara Ryuichi chose to let things take their course.

After chatting, Yamabukizuki thought of the important matter:
"There's only a little over an hour left before the meeting, so let's get our message across."

"it is good."

The class reunion is the highlight of this date, and Sugawara Ryuu was aware of it early on and took it seriously.

Seeing that he was listening, Yamabukizuki began to explain:

"Background: My high school friends all had boyfriends, and when they noticed I was still single, they thought it was too late for me to find a relationship. Then one of my friends' younger brother had a crush on me, and his older sister wanted to bring us together. I didn't like that, so I lied and said I had a boyfriend. Ever since I lied, they've been clamoring to meet my boyfriend. I've refused several times, but if I kept refusing, I'd be exposed, so I ended up having to resort to renting boyfriends.

To put it briefly, in their impression, you are my junior in the Faculty of Education at Waseda University, three years younger than me, and we have been dating for a year.

The point is, there are five of us at this class reunion, including you, and since there are more girls, they might be a bit unruly.

"I remember everything."

Ryuichi Sugawara has been studying for many years and is very confident in quick memorization.

After saying these things, Yamabuki took a sip of his coffee, swallowed, and prepared himself mentally before speaking:
"To confirm whether you are real or fake, they may ask some relatively private questions... For example, my net height is 166, upper chest measurement is 91, lower chest measurement is 76, waist measurement is 65, hip measurement is 92, there is a mole under the left southern hemisphere, and my weight is a secret."

"..."

After hearing this, even if Sugawara Ryuichi had all the self-control he could muster, curiosity drove him to take a look at her curvy figure, wanting to know what size these data corresponded to.

In his impression, Teacher Yamabuki has a slim and slender figure, but he didn't expect her to be so well-endowed. He had never noticed it before. Is it because she dresses more conservatively at school?

There was a mole under the southern hemisphere on the left side...if he understood correctly, was it in that position?
