I have pure love with them

"Goto-san, are you learning a musical instrument?"

"R-Right? Eh? Musical instrument?"

After Izumi opened her mouth, Goto Ichiri uttered "I'm sorry". When she was halfway through her words, she heard the word "musical instrument". It was as if a keyword was triggered. Her fear and anxiety disappeared in an instant. She slowly opened her eyes, which had been tightly closed with her head down, and looked at Izumi in front of her with surprise.

4. No one is more honest than me

Spreading out his white palms, Izumi gently tapped his fingers under the gaze of Goto Ichiri.

"I noticed that Goto-san's hands have some characteristics that only people who have been in contact with musical instruments for a long time have, so...ah, maybe I misunderstood. I have been learning a musical instrument recently, so I am more concerned about this aspect. If I am wrong, please forgive me."

The gentle tone and humble attitude made Goto Ichiri's uneasiness about the boy in front of him fade away a little. His expression also calmed down a little. Eight hundred thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, but his final answer was quite concise.

"Yes... I am... studying."

Although she has 30,000 followers online, she was afraid that if she made this known to the boy in front of her, he would think she was arrogant. Coupled with her own social phobia, she could not help but lower her status and admit that she had just learned this.

"really?"

For a moment, Goto Ichiri seemed to see a light in the eyes of the boy in front of her, as if he was very happy because of her answer.

"That's great. I can meet someone who is also learning an instrument. I'm learning guitar. What about Goto-san?"

"Eh?"

After hearing what Quan said, Goto Ichiri was stunned again.

"Could it be that Goto-san is also learning guitar?"

'What a coincidence? '

Goto Ichiri looked at the boy in front of her. She didn't expect that the instrument he learned was guitar. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded slightly.

"Yes... y-it's the guitar."

"That's great. If possible, can I ask you some questions about this in the future?"

consult?

The feeling of being respected made Goto Ichiri feel tingling in his heart. His whole body was wrapped in warmth, as if he was about to melt, and a happy expression appeared on his face.

"Yes, you can."

"That's settled."

Seeing that Goto Ichiri agreed, Izumi, who had achieved his goal, had a brighter smile on his face.

As more and more students filled the classroom, Izumi, who had already attracted the attention of some students, temporarily stopped talking with Goto Ichiri, smiled and waved to the others as a greeting.

"Talk to you next time."

Looking at Izumi leaving and returning to her seat, the girl sitting at the table next to Goto Ichiri became curious about Goto Ichiri again.

"Can Goto-san play the guitar?"

Immersed in the happiness of being recognized, Goto Ichiri was feeling elated. When she heard the question from the girl at the next table, she felt that this was an opportunity. As long as she seized this chance, using guitar and music, she would surely be able to make everyone accept her!

One minute later——

"Failed..."

Although the other party was indeed curious about Goto Ichiri because of the guitar, when the other party asked Goto Ichiri about his favorite band.

Goto Ichiri started by talking about death metal bands like 'DISMEMBER' and 'Necrophagia', which made the other party search the Internet out of curiosity. However, the first thing that caught her eye was not the band, but the translation of these words.

The other party glanced at the translator, then looked at Goto Ichiri who was smiling in front of him, expecting approval, ended the conversation in silence, turned sideways quietly, and kept some distance from Goto Ichiri.

"Chihaya-san, are you interested in the student council?"

Chihayazumi returned to her seat and slowly raised her head. What caught her eyes was not the other person's face, but the other person's black hair shining in the sunlight. The long hair was as beautiful as silk, which made Chihayazumi a little dazed.

"Chihaya-san?"

The girl noticed Chihayazumi's gaze and did not show any dissatisfaction. She just smiled and repeated his name.

"Ayatsuji-san's long hair is very beautiful."

Quan came back to his senses and looked at the girl in front of him who exuded a quiet and graceful temperament, and expressed his sincere admiration.

Although she was used to seeing boys showing kindness to her, she was still a little surprised by the straightforward praise from the boy in front of her. When she was about to express her gratitude——

"As beautiful as my sister who lives overseas."

"..."

She almost couldn't keep the smile on her face, and in her heart, Kiyotsuji silently labeled the boy in front of her as a 'sister-con'.

"Is Chihaya-san's sister abroad?"

"Well, when I was in middle school, I was the student council president. Now I'm studying abroad."

"Hey~ That's amazing. So, Chihaya-san, do you want to join the student council?"

After some politeness, Ayatsuji repeated the question he had asked earlier, looked at the boy in front of him, stared into Izumi's eyes, and waited for his answer.

Ayatsuji Ci is another top student in this class besides Izumi.

Unlike Izumi who chose this school because it was close to home, Akatsuki chose this school in order to prove his own ability.

"If you go to an excellent school, no matter how well you do, in the eyes of others you will just be a copycat. If you go to an average school and still receive honors, you can prove that you are truly excellent."

With such a proud belief, Xuanji Ci entered Xiuhua High School, ready to prove her talent as the top freshman, and then...

"I'm Chihayazumi, the freshman representative."

Painful memories churned in her mind as she stared at the boy in front of her. Although she had successfully become the class monitor yesterday, the thought of the teacher asking "Chihaya-kun, do you want to be the class monitor?" filled her heart with deep hostility. However, in order to maintain a good image in the eyes of others, she did not show any inappropriateness and waited for Izumi's answer with a smile.

Although the idea of ​​becoming a freshman representative failed, the plan to join the student union and then become the student union president must not have any problems!

On the road to becoming the student council president, the boys in front of him are the biggest obstacle.

"Student Union?"

Chihaya Izumi, who was sitting in her seat, did not give an immediate answer after hearing Ayatsuji Koto's question, and seemed a little hesitant.

"The third-year seniors in the student council are all preparing for further studies. Currently, there are only second-year seniors in the student council. I plan to join the student council and make some contributions to the school and everyone within my ability. From the speech at the opening ceremony, I think Chihaya may have the same idea, so I came here to ask if you want to join the student council together?"

The beautiful face and gentle voice made the boys sitting next to them look at the two of them, wishing that they were the ones to be invited.

Some girls looked at the two of them and had already imagined the scene of the talented and beautiful couple entering the student union together, then entering the same university together, and getting married after graduation.

"Huh? Speech?"

Looking at that pair of 'sincere' eyes and 'expectant' expression, Quan smiled.

"Ah~ I forgot to prepare my speech, so the teacher just printed out a copy and gave it to me."

5. Be my brother-in-law

'Is this something you can say?'

Faced with Izumi's frankness, Xuanji forgot the words for a moment and stared blankly at the smiling face in front of him. While feeling tired, he also realized how difficult this guy was.

"Well, I haven't joined any clubs yet, and I had no intention of joining the student council, but since Ayatsuji-san took the initiative to invite me to join the student council, I'm a little tempted. What position in the student council is Ayatsuji-san aiming for?"

Seeing that Akatsuki's thoughts were affected by the answer he gave, he took the initiative in the topic.

The seemingly serious question actually set a trap for Ayatsuji. Once Ayatsuji answered that it was a position in the student union, the classmates in the class at that moment would subconsciously suspect that Ayatsuji joined the student union for the rights of the student union, and had a purpose in mind, which conflicted with what he just said, "to help everyone."

Although Akatsuki herself had no self-awareness and probably thought she hid her emotions and psychology very well, in front of Izumi, who had specially selected psychology-related talents a long time ago, her hostility was exposed like a person walking naked in the snow.

"I want……"

Influenced by Izumi's previous answer, Ayatsuji Ci subconsciously prepared to give an answer.

But the moment she opened her mouth, she felt a sudden sense of horror in her heart, causing her to quickly stop answering. Her stuck thoughts started to work rapidly, and her eyes suddenly widened, realizing the trap in Quan's question.

"Ok?"

Seeing that Akatsuki suddenly paused in the middle of answering, Izumi kept smiling and waited for her answer.

"This guy...! "

The smile became stiff. After realizing the trap in this question, Xuanji Ci felt a chill on her spine and her chest rose and fell slightly. She felt a sense of malice coming from the boy in front of her.

"I want to be someone who can help everyone. As long as I can join the student union and help everyone, that's enough. As for those positions, they are not that important."

At first, the voice was slightly trembling, but as she answered, the girl's expression quickly returned to normal, and her smile was no longer stiff. After the classmates around heard it, they couldn't help but feel good about Ayatsuji.

Students of this age group do not have as many complicated thoughts as people in society. Unless there are any conflicts, they will not imagine too much about the person they just met. Besides, Ayatsuji Ci's appearance gives people the impression of being dignified and beautiful. From the superficial understanding of high school students, that is - she is good-looking and cannot be a bad person.

"It's amazing that Ayatsuji-san has such thoughts. I don't have such high awareness. I probably won't join the student council, so don't worry."

After smiling at Xuanji Ci, Izumi gave his answer, then lowered his head, picked up the pen in the pencil case and started twirling it between his fingers.

'Peace of mind...'

Originally, Akatsuki wanted to invite Chihaya Izumi in front of her, and under her leadership, the two of them would join the student union together and show their abilities in the student union, in order to wash away the shame of the 'freshman representative' and gain a helper who could be of use.

but now……

I think more!

"Reassurance? Stop looking down on me!"

Although she had already realized that the boy in front of her was a tough guy who was not easy to deal with, and had already made it clear that he would not compete with her for power within the student union and would not affect her accumulation of application points required for "recommendation-based admission", this attitude, which seemed like "alms", made Xuanji Ci very angry!

Feeling the gazes from all around, Xuanji Ci knew in his heart that no matter how angry he was, he had to endure it for the time being. He expressed his regret with a smile and ended the conversation with Quan.

Turning the pen in his hand, listening to the gradually fading footsteps, Izumi watched the departing figure of Xuanji Ci out of the corner of his eye and smiled lightly.

'Interesting woman.'

Although Goto Ichiri's personality is also very interesting, Ayatsuji Koto's is interesting in a different style. With the two of them around, his life in high school should not be boring.

……

"Izumi~ah, in the classroom."

At noon, when it was time for a break, the students in the class started to sit at tables in groups of three or four and eat their lunch together. Chihayazumi also took out her own lunch box.

Mrs. Chihaya, his mother, returned home early last night. While preparing dinner, she also prepared the ingredients for today's lunch for him in advance. When she got up in the morning, she prepared a lunch box for him, saving Quan the worry of "what to eat at noon".
