A reversal of fortune and victory in a world hated by all girls!

"That was so long ago, never mind." Aoi Natsuki seemed to realize that this girl was rather naive, completely different from Sakurajima Anne; when she spoke hurtfully, her eyes didn't hold any real meaning.

I just find him disgusting.

What are you doing?

"Volunteering! Helping the elderly will raise some funds so they can go on a trip. Sigh~ If I weren't short of pocket money these past two months, I could probably manage it all by myself," the girl said, shaking her head.

This girl may be a little sharp-tongued, but she's actually quite kind-hearted.

This made Aoi Natsuki think more highly of her.

"So where are we now? What percentage are we complete?"

"Heh heh." The girl smiled mysteriously. "Hey buddy, you're asking me math questions? Are you trying to end our conversation here?"

"Forehead……"

For a moment, he was speechless.

"It's a pity that I'm currently struggling financially, otherwise I would have done my part too."

Aoi Natsuki shrugged.

"Ah, it's okay. After all, I can understand it if a man like you is a little poor."

"???"

The conversation with this girl is getting weirder and weirder; what kind of inappropriate things is she saying?!

The girl seemed to realize something and quickly covered her mouth, frowning as she said, "Did I say something bad again? I'm sorry, it's just that you're so unpleasant to look at. I'll try my best to control myself next time!"

"You rascal..."

Aoi Natsuki sighed; he had lost the will to continue the conversation and said goodbye.

Just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by an S-class girl.

"I don't even know your name yet."

name……

In the end, Natsuki Aoi decided to reveal his name; after all, it wouldn't hurt to say it.

"Oh..." Upon hearing his name, which sounded rather handsome, the S-class girl's face showed a look of disappointment.

Damn it!

Before he could react, the S-class girl spoke first: "My name is Takahashi Ayano. What do you think, not a bad name, right?"

“Takahashi…” In an instant, Aoi Natsuki thought of Takahashi Mito. Oh! He suddenly realized.

No wonder she looked familiar! Her face and eyebrows are so similar to Mito Takahashi's! And judging by their age, are they sisters?

What a coincidence!

Both sisters are S-class?!

Aoi Natsuki slapped her forehead. No wonder it was so difficult to deal with; the Takahashi family were no pushovers.

"Oh, I see. I have something to do. See you again sometime."

Seeing how rude she was to him, Aoi Natsuki gave up the idea of ​​asking her for her contact information. Besides, even if he asked, she might not give it to him, so he decided to save his breath.

Without listening to what she was saying, he quickly walked towards the end of the street. Ayano Takahashi watched his back with a curious expression on her face.

……

Natsuki Aoi finished shopping, and...

He opened the shopping bag, and inside lay a rag doll, the same kind that Lina had seen on TV a while ago.

This can also be considered a reward for her taking such good care of Ji-chan during this time.

I left home quite late today, and now when I look at the time it's already past 4 pm. I'll hurry home to cook dinner.

While thinking about what dish to cook, Natsuki Aoi suddenly received a phone call.

He turned on the screen and saw that it was Mito Takahashi calling.

She actually took the initiative to call him?

incredible.

He immediately pressed the call button, and soon Takahashi Mito's anxious voice came through.

"Quick, come pick me up! I'm stuck on the lake, and my phone is broken. Please come to Chidorigafuchi to get me..."

"What?" Aoi Natsuki was only stunned for a second before replying immediately, "Okay, I'll be right there. Keep the battery charged and call me again in twenty minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Aoi Natsuki immediately hailed a taxi to go to Kitanomaru Park. What was that guy doing there?

Chidorigafuchi is Kitanomaru Park, located next to the Yasukuni Shrine. It is famous in Japan for its 400-meter-long Chidorigafuchi Cherry Blossom Path and is known as Chidorigafuchi.

During cherry blossom season, many tourists visit the lake to enjoy the cherry blossoms, but the lake is relatively less popular during the winter.

Why did Takahashi suddenly decide to go boating on the lake?

Chapter 37 Why don't you move!

Upon arriving at Kitanomaru Park, the smell of earth filled the air. He walked along the lakeside and noticed that very few people would be boating on the lake in this weather.

The lake was very large, and he couldn't see the other person at a glance, so he had to rent a small boat himself.

There are two types of boats for rent here: hand-rowed and foot-operated. The foot-operated boats are also available in single-person and double-person versions.

After paying, he chose a pedal-powered boat with a shell and headed towards the center of the lake.

The entire lake forms a large, curved arc, so there are many blind spots, and it's normal not to see the Takahashi Bridge.

He continued forward, and the lake on either side did not frighten him. He had once taken his father to learn to swim during a summer vacation. Although his posture was not very good, he had no problem swimming to the lakeside wearing a safety suit.

Soon he saw a small boat in the distance, which stopped motionless on the lake.

At that moment, the other party also called.

"Have you arrived yet...?" The tone became kinder.

After all, it's a request for help; if the attitude is bad, then it's really just plain stupid.

"Yes, I've seen you. Look back and see if there's a small boat approaching."

There was silence on the other end, then the voice rose eight octaves: "Yes! Yes!"

Aoi Natsuki moved the screen away; the sudden increase in volume almost shattered his ears.

Once confirmed, there's no problem.

He quickened his pace and approached, soon reaching a position level with the small boat. Looking down, he saw Takahashi Mito, her eyes red-rimmed, squatting inside.

What are you doing...?

Aoi Natsuki had anticipated this situation, so she had specially rented a two-person pedal truck. However, even with two people, the weight was still quite excessive, and it was really tiring for her to get here by herself.

"Slow down, come here first." Aoi Natsuki extended her hand to her.

A fleeting reluctance crossed Takahashi Mito's eyes, but then she glanced at the lake so close at hand, her fear of slipping and falling into the water growing stronger.

It's important to understand that being on water is not like being on land, especially with small boats like these. Even the slightest movement of your body will cause the boat to tilt. This feeling of not being able to feel the ground beneath your feet makes even a distance of only 20 centimeters between two boats seem like a chasm.

In the end, she still chose to extend her hand.

He initiated his first physical contact with Natsuki Aoi.

"Favorability +4"

Aoi Natsuki smiled. Being touched by a boy who was unwilling to be touched actually increased her favorability. Girls' psychology is really hard to guess.

Apart from that, Aoi Natsuki did not touch her waist or any other part of her body any further; just hand contact was enough.

Mito Takahashi successfully reached the co-pilot's position. The two-person boat was much more stable, and this sense of security made her breathe a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong with you? You suddenly decided to go boating on the lake by yourself, and you even came to such a far place. It's really too dangerous for a girl like you."

Takahashi Mito, still in a panic, glared at him, her right hand gripping her collar tightly, and said, "Mind your own business!"

Well, everything has returned to normal.

Aoi Natsuki decided to rest for a while, and decided to leave the boat here for the time being.

"You, you should move!" Takahashi Mito shouted when she saw him like this.

“I’m not an animal. I’m already exhausted from riding all this way by myself. Let me rest for a bit. You should hurry back. You can ride for a while by yourself. Anyway, you have pedals there.” Aoi Natsuki pointed to the pedals under her feet.

Takahashi Mito was furious, but she couldn't make any big moves on the turbulent lake. As if recalling some unpleasant memory, she said, "I just stopped on the lake, and that's why the pedals broke. You get on right now! Otherwise, we'll both be stuck here!"

A cool breeze blew by, and Takahashi Mito sneezed.

The sun gradually set, and the temperature began to cool down.

After hearing this, Natsuki Aoi understood what he meant, but he felt that labor should not be a one-sided effort, so he suggested that the two of them ride together.

Mito Takahashi couldn't refuse and had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Here, put your coat on."

"Eh."

Takahashi Mito was stunned for a moment, watching as he took off his coat and handed it to her, then began to push off with his feet, and the small boat gradually moved forward.

"..."

There was a moment of internal struggle, but, but...

Honestly, she'd known this guy for over a month now, and he seemed fairly trustworthy in terms of character. Sometimes she thought, if only he weren't a guy, they would definitely become good friends.

Unfortunately……

Her dislike for boys was innate, not just towards him, but towards all boys, except that he added the word "most" to it.

Mito Takahashi shivered, but still put on her coat. His unique scent filled her nostrils, causing her body and mind to experience two completely different emotions: comfort and resistance.

Regarding her misogyny, Aoi Natsuki asked Hayakawa, who said that Takahashi had explained to her that it was actually a psychological disorder. She didn't like men, but she wasn't a lesbian. She could get along well with some androgynous people, but if she found out they were men, the relationship would end immediately.

Is this a very bad thing?

What might seem like an advantage to others could be seen as an advantage by Natsuki Aoi.
