Chiyo Nishino waved her hands repeatedly and said quickly, "No! It's okay! Let's make it another time!"
Nakano Yotsuba said, "Okay."
The girls surrounding her didn't disperse until the Chinese teacher entered the classroom for the second period.
Since they were still going over the same test paper from the last test, Yotsuba Nakano sat down next to Yuta Kijima and shared a test paper with him. After a while, she looked around and then fixed her gaze on the bored Yuta Kijima.
He lowered his voice and said, "Kijima-kun...?"
Yuta Kijima glanced at Yotsuba Nakano, who wasn't paying attention in class and had started chatting with him again, and didn't understand what she was up to now.
He tilted his head slightly and asked in a tone that only the two of them could hear, "What's wrong, Nakano-kun? Is there something you didn't understand?"
"no no."
Looking down at the perfect score on the Japanese language exam paper on the table, Nakano Yotsuba realized that the person next to her was already a future reserve member of the University of Tokyo.
However, she has no intention of looking at the questions right now.
Yotsuba Nakano: "Kishima-kun, do you know where our school's track and field club is?"
Yuta Kijima glanced at her, looked her up and down carefully, and replied that she did indeed look like someone who could join the track and field club.
"It's in the stadium right next to the track and field; basically all the sports clubs are there. But... is Nakano-kun joining the track and field club so soon after arriving?"
Yuta Kijima felt it was necessary to remind her about her studies as the student sitting behind her, as focusing too much on track and field might not necessarily lead to satisfactory results.
"It's okay." Nakano Yotsuba's mood changed instantly, and she pretended not to care, saying, "I was just asking around. It would be too depressing to focus on studying right after transferring here."
"Hello Nakano-kun, you should pay attention to this. Look at the front row, that's the person I told you about before. If your grades aren't good, you might be moved to the front row." Kijima Yuta gestured to Aki Tomoya's seat.
Now he is completely focused in class, a model student.
Nakano Yotsuba paused for a moment, her once vibrant face gradually turning pale.
……
The rest of the class proceeded smoothly, but every time get out of class ended, a group of girls would gather in front of Yuta Kijima, and they would occasionally try to get him involved in the conversation.
After the last class of the morning ended, Yuta Kijima grabbed his lunchbox and slipped out the back door. As for Tomoya Aki, he couldn't wait any longer.
Just as Nakano Yotsuba was about to head to the cafeteria, she watched Kijima Yuta's retreating figure and prepared to follow him. However, several girls who hadn't brought lunchboxes suddenly appeared beside her and surrounded her. In the end, she could only slowly follow them to the cafeteria.
Seeing that there was no way to change the situation, she steered the conversation towards Yuta Kijima on the way. Her classmate behind her seemed to be full of mystery, and most importantly, his perfect scores in every subject were making her extremely envious.
If she had such good grades, she wouldn't have been expelled for failing her makeup exam, and she wouldn't have dragged her classmates down with her.
This just so happened to become the center of conversation among the girls, and they immediately started talking all at once.
"Huh? I didn't expect you to become interested in Kijima so quickly, Nakano-kun? You're surprisingly a carnivore."
"Get lost, this is normal, no one can resist Kijima-kun right now!"
"Now?" Nakano Yotsuba quickly seized on the clue and asked.
The girls exchanged glances, realizing it was time to introduce the melon, and immediately began to introduce Yuta Kijima.
"Nakano-kun, it's normal that you don't know since you just transferred here. You know, for the first month or so after you entered the school, Kijima-kun looked like a typical Japanese otaku."
"He's unkempt, has terrible grades, and is friends with Aki Tomoya, the worst guy in Toyonosaki."
"Eh!!" Nakano Yotsuba's eyes widened, completely unable to connect the person the girls were describing with Kijima Yuta, who was sitting behind her.
The girl was clearly pleased with her appearance, paused for a moment, and then continued speaking.
"Yes, it took about two months for Kijima to become like this."
"At first, I gradually changed my appearance, and then my grades gradually improved. Now even my temperament is completely different from when I first started!"
Yotsuba Nakano once again grasped the part that mattered most to her.
In just two months, he went from being a poor student in his class to the top of the grade? Looks like I really need to get to know Kijima-san better...
Chapter 177 An Yilun also committed suicide
Afterwards, Yotsuba Nakano followed a group of girls to the cafeteria, subtly obtaining a lot of information about Yuta Kijima along the way.
Meanwhile, Yuta Kijima was completely unaware of this and was about to be targeted. He was already sitting with Megumi Kato, enjoying their bento boxes.
“Thanks to Yuta’s tutoring these past few days, otherwise my exam score wouldn’t have improved so much,” Kato Megumi tilted her head and said lightly. “Even the teacher was very surprised by my progress.”
"fine."
Hui had already told him the results when the exam came out. His grades had improved from the bottom of the class to the upper-middle level. With a little more effort, he should be able to easily get into the top of the class in the final exam.
Kasumigaoka Utaha goes without saying; she's a top student who can get first place even if she's sleeping in the classroom every day. As for Eriri, although she's of mixed British and Japanese heritage, her English grades are questionable, but fortunately, her other grades are acceptable, and her overall academic performance has remained stable.
Only Aki Tomoya truly experienced the care and attention from his teachers this time.
"What the heck!" Eriri, who overheard their conversation, immediately complained, "Who decided that having British ancestry means you have to be fluent in English? Seriously, who invented this harmful language, English?!"
Eriri showed her little tiger teeth while turning her head to look at Yuta Kijima in the back row.
I absolutely need Yuta to tutor me properly before the final exams, otherwise I'll be openly and subtly mocked by the other girls in the classroom again...
"If you're bad at something, learn more." Kasumigaoka Utaha rested her chin on her hand, looking at Eriri with disdain. "Or is it that our young lady's talent can only be displayed in those manga?"
……
By the end of June, the outdoor temperature had already started to get hot.
At this moment, Aki Tomoya finally pushed open the door of the audiovisual classroom and came in. Because he hadn't prepared a bento box, he went to the cafeteria's convenience store to buy a fried noodle bread and milk before rushing over.
He was drenched in sweat and panting heavily the whole way.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Eriri standing up and confronting Kasumigaoka Utaha, asking with a puzzled look, "S-senpai? What's going on between you two?"
"It's nothing." Eriri turned around and looked over, instantly remembering what Kasumigaoka Utaha had told her over the weekend. She replied irritably and sat down.
This left Aki Tomoya completely bewildered. Had he done something wrong again?
However, this matter was of no importance to him. Aki Tomoya shook his head, sat down in front of Kijima Yuta, and said excitedly, "You have no idea what I went through in the cafeteria?"
Yuta Kijima smirked and tentatively asked, "A bunch of thirsty Toyonosaki boys?"
"Eh?"
Aki Tomoya pushed up his glasses, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "That's true. Yuta, you probably can't possibly understand what's going on in the cafeteria."
He squinted and said, "I really don't understand these people who are lustful for the three-dimensional world. It's clearly only the two-dimensional world that we should be pursuing."
Yuta Kijima completely ignored what he said next, but Megumi Kato, who was standing next to him, suddenly asked a question.
"Is that Nakano-san? I was quite surprised when I found out they were quintuplets."
Kato Megumi said in a calm tone, showing no sign of being surprised, "Speaking of which, Nakano-kun even asked me how I improved my grades so quickly."
"And..." She glanced at Yuta Kijima beside her and said softly, "That Nakano-san must be someone Yuta met at the school festival, right? Back then, as soon as I mentioned Yuta's name, she blurted out something like takoyaki."
Eriri then joined the discussion, squinting her eyes as she said, "Our classmate is called Nakano Ichika. Speaking of which, she's really popular since she arrived."
Apart from Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was a year older than them and didn't know the situation, everyone else present already knew about the Nakano Five Sisters.
“Nakano Satsuki?” Kijima Yuta looked at Kato Megumi. “So the person in Megumi’s class must be the Nakano I know.”
"Wow, that's amazing, five sisters or something..."
Aki Tomoya pushed up his glasses and sighed, admitting that this was a very rare setting even in the world of anime. But then, thinking about everything that had happened that morning, his expression immediately turned embarrassed. "Sigh... I can't sneak around in class anymore..."
Kasumigaoka Utaha pursed her lips and looked at Aki Tomoya. Her junior had already told them why Aki Tomoya was late, so she wasn't surprised.
"I think there must be something you need to inform me about, Mr. Ethics?" she said lazily.
"Notification? Notification about what?" Aki Tomoya was taken aback by his senior's words and didn't react for a moment.
Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes and frowned, reminding her, "Of course it's the cute junior you played with at the school festival."
"what!"
Reminded by his senior, Aki Tomoya slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot."
Then he stood up abruptly, drawing everyone's attention, and said, "Given that our game framework is almost complete, we should prepare to move on to the next stage."
"So I'm planning to hold a club gathering at my house this weekend!"
Aki Tomoya looked at Eriri with great enthusiasm and said, "Eriri! I'd like to introduce you to a very talented illustrator! Come to think of it, it's been so many years since we last met, I really didn't know she had become such a gifted artist!"
Eriri's azure eyes dimmed after hearing these words.
Meanwhile, Aki Tomoya was still unaware of what was happening and continued to say to himself, "Hashima Izumi said that she started liking anime and video games because I recommended 'Little Love Rhapsody' to her!"
He was particularly excited when he talked about this, after all, there is nothing more joyful than a successful missionary endeavor.
Eriri was biting her lip tightly and didn't say anything.
Because she remembered that the first and last gift she gave to Aki Tomoya when she was in the third grade of elementary school was "Little Love Rhapsody".
I never expected things to develop like this...
Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned upon hearing Aki Tomoya's slightly boastful remark, and said with disdain, "Giving an innocent junior an otome game, Tomoya-kun, is this how you corrupt girls?"
As he spoke, his voice seemed to carry a chilling edge.
"How can it be considered depravity!?"
Aki Tomoya pushed up his glasses, shook his head, and said seriously, "Her talent is incredibly strong right now. You'll see when you come to my house this weekend and see her work. Oh, and I've already found a musician for her too..."
Chapter 178 Good News
Kasumigaoka Utaha pursed her lips and looked at Aki Tomoya. She had said what she needed to say, and if things continued this way, there was nothing she could do.
Eriri subconsciously clenched her teeth, her golden twin tails trembling slightly uncontrollably. She lowered her head and stood up, saying, "I...I'll go back now..."
After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly out of the audiovisual classroom without looking back.
Upon witnessing this scene, Yuta Kijima couldn't help but shake his head, unsure of what to say.
Aki Tomoya... Could it be that you really channeled all your emotional talent into virtual games? But since you're so enthusiastic about that trip to Hashima Island, you don't seem like someone who can't see the bigger picture. Or perhaps you've never truly cared about your close friends?
This strange way of making friends has always existed in the real world. Many people are extra caring towards strangers, but indifferent to their own friends, and never consider the feelings of those around them.
You know, no matter how friendly a relationship is, it will fall apart if it is not maintained.
Even if you regret it later, don't try to make amends.
Of course, Yuta Kijima wouldn't tell anyone about these things. People like Tomoya Aki have completely lived in their own world, and trying to persuade them would only earn him a bad reputation.
Furthermore, Utaha-senpai had already spoken up, and her seemingly sarcastic but actually intended-to-dissuade Aki Tomoya from continuing was clearly useless.
