It's a romantic comedy for everyone, so why am I the only one single?

Hideki Iura felt that the name Kagurazaka Ayame sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it.

"Could it be because his surname contains the character 'Kagura'?"

As he thought about it, Iura Hide took out his phone, intending to save the contact information on the business card in case he lost it.

While I'm at it, I'll also check out the information about Kadokawa Bunko in this world.

However, at this moment, Ishikawa Toru, who was resting his chin on one hand and looking out the window with the other, thinking about what topics he should talk about if he had lunch with Hori-kun, suddenly took out his phone, glanced at it, and then got up and walked over.

"Shu, Yamada has already inquired about those names you wanted to know."

"Huh? So fast? How did he find out?" Iura Hide paused in his work and asked curiously.

"See for yourself~"

Ishikawa Toru handed him his phone directly; it had more than a dozen messages on it.

Iura Hide took the phone and glanced at it for a few moments before frowning.

If you were to ask around in each class, it certainly wouldn't be that fast, and you'd easily miss some, since there are always one or two of those little nobodys in each class.

So Yamada cleverly obtained the first-year class assignment notice from the student council, which they had originally planned to discard.

In this way, it will be immediately clear who is in which class.

Then Yamada brought him both good news and bad news.

The good news is that his favorite character, Sugaya Noha, also exists; the bad news is that Gojo Shinna also exists, but she hasn't been assigned to the same class as Kitagawa Kaimu yet.

Upon seeing this, Iura Hide, already feeling agitated, put down his phone.

Images of various fan service scenes from the dressing doll kept flashing through her mind, especially the scene where Kitagawa Kaimu went to Gojo Shinna's house, stripped down to only a sexy NYSE, and had Gojo Shinna measure her entire body. She didn't know what to do.

"Hey, Xiu, what's wrong?"

"No need to thank me."

Iura Hide forced a nonchalant smile and handed the phone back to him.

Ishikawa Toru wasn't blind, so he naturally noticed that something was off with him, but even best friends don't have to pry into everything.

Seeing that Iura Hide was clearly unwilling to talk about it, he didn't ask any more questions. He took the phone, put it back in his pocket, and went back to his seat to continue thinking about his Hori-kun.

Then another message came in.

Yamada asked him if he needed help getting Sugaya Noa's contact information.

Unfortunately, Ishikawa Toru, who was lost in thought again, didn't see the message.

Why haven't they replied yet?

At the entrance of Class 1-A at Toyosaki High School, Yamada held his phone, waiting anxiously for news from Ishikawa Toru, while occasionally glancing into the classroom.

Meanwhile, in the classroom, Sugaya Noi was gathered around Kitagawa Kaimu's seat with Ryunosuke and Ozora, chatting happily about the funny things that happened at her part-time job yesterday, just like usual.

"If you ask me, Naiyu, since you like going to karaoke so much, why don't you just work at a karaoke bar? That way you can get insider discount coupons," Ryunosuke couldn't help but tease.

“That’s different. Singing is my hobby. If it becomes my job, then it feels different,” Sugaya Noha retorted seriously.

However, the truth is that she had already tried working part-time at a KTV, but the result was completely different from what she had imagined.

Not to mention singing while working, sometimes she would encounter those kinds of situations, so the experience was very bad and almost left her with a trauma.

"What about Hai Meng? Has she found a new part-time job?"

"Huh? What?"

Kitagawa Kaimu, who was absentmindedly swiping her phone screen, paused, clearly not having heard what Ryun had just said.

"I mean, have you found a new part-time job? What's wrong with you today? Why are you staring at your phone all the time? Are you waiting for someone's message?"

"Uh, no~"

Ryūne clearly didn't believe it. If she wasn't waiting for someone's message, why was she always staring blankly at her phone?

Oozora, standing nearby, chuckled and teased, "Could it be that you're waiting for your boyfriend's text message?"

Kitagawa Kaimu instinctively tensed up, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes became evasive.

This left Oozora, who had only been joking, stunned.

"No way? Hai Meng, you really have a boyfriend?"

Ryuno, who also noticed that Kitagawa Kaimu was acting strangely, couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "Oh my god! Really? Who is it? Is it someone from our school? Or some handsome guy you met at your part-time job? Is it the one you met at the hair salon last time?"

""

When Kitagawa Kaimu heard the phrase "the handsome guy she met while working," she was initially a little nervous.

When I heard "the one I met at the hair salon," I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and a disdainful sneer appeared on my face.

"Please, what's so handsome about that guy? And he's always so narcissistic, constantly criticizing other people's hairstyles and fashion sense. How could I possibly be interested in someone like that?"

"So whose news are you waiting for?" Liuyin couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Huh? This one, that one?"

Kitagawa Kaimu's powerful aura, which had just emerged, was instantly shattered. She gave a dry laugh and looked around nervously.

She wasn't actually waiting for anyone's message; she was wondering whether or not to message Iura Hide.

Because she had already learned from Tony, the hairdresser from yesterday, that Iura Hide had dyed his hair white, her curiosity was immediately piqued.

Not to mention, Tony kept boasting that his skills had improved again, and that Iura Shu was several levels more handsome with his new hairstyle and hair color.

This made her incredibly eager to try it.

Although she would be able to see Iura Hide when she went to work in the afternoon, she really couldn't wait.

But when asked to message Iura Hide, she didn't know how to start the conversation.

You can't just ask directly, "Did Iura Shu get a new hairstyle because of her?"

"What do you mean by 'this' and 'that'?"

"You can actually be so hesitant and timid? This is so unlike you!"

"Exactly! The more you do that, the more curious we become!"

Ryune and the other two exchanged glances, then approached Kitagawa Haimu with wicked grins, clearly intending to use physical means to force her to confess.

Fortunately, just then, Ishida, who couldn't wait any longer as the break was about to end, walked over here.

"Arnold—"

"Smi Ma Sai!"

Ryune and the other two immediately stopped and turned to look at Yamada.

"She's average-looking, probably not Hai Meng's type, right?"

"It shouldn't be, otherwise Hai Meng wouldn't be so calm."

"I guess they're here to ask Hai Meng for her phone number again."

"Wow, I really envy Hai Meng~"

Ryune and Ozora sized up Yamada while casually making sarcastic remarks about her, behaving like typical gyaru (gal) girls.

A row of black lines appeared on Yamada's forehead.

If it weren't for Ishikawa Toru, and if Sugaya Noi hadn't refrained from joining the吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or witty remarks), he would have turned around and left without saying a word.

After all, what respectable high school student would associate with hot girls?

"But this Sugaya Noha is quite cute, no wonder Ishikawa wanted her contact information." Yamada thought to himself, scratching his head sheepishly as he explained, "Not Kitagawa, but Sugaya-senpai."

"Me?" Sugaya Noi was stunned for a moment, then pointed to herself uncertainly.

Ryune and Oozora, who were standing nearby, also showed expressions of surprise.

While Sugaya Nowa is indeed very pretty and cute, among the four of them, Kitagawa Kaimu is definitely the most dazzling!

Let alone Sugaya Nowa, even the two of them pale in comparison to Kitagawa Kaimu!

“That’s right, I have a friend who goes to another school, and he wants Sugaya’s contact information.”

Sugaya Noiwa snapped out of her daze, blinked blankly, and looked at Kitagawa Kaimu with a somewhat bewildered expression.

If it were Kyoko Hori in this situation, she would probably refuse without hesitation. However, Sugaya Nowa, who was being asked for her phone number for the first time, didn't know what to do and could only ask Kitagawa Kaimu for help.

As the leader of the four-person group, Kitagawa Kaimu stepped forward without hesitation.

"Which school does your friend go to? Is he handsome? Do you have a picture?"

"This..." Yamada thought for a moment, then decided it wouldn't hurt to say it, so he honestly confessed, "He's from Katagiri High School next door. He's quite handsome and a very nice person. Here's a picture of him."

As Yamada spoke, he pulled up a group photo of them from their junior high school graduation on his phone and pointed it out to Kitagawa Kaimu.

"Let me see, let me see—"

Ryune and Ozora immediately crowded around, almost pushing Sugaya Noha, who was the person involved, to the side.

"Is it this purple-haired guy?"

"Ah."

"I think he's alright looking, Naiyu. What do you think?"

"I think mine is alright."

"So, are you going to give him your contact information?"

""

To be honest, because she was used to seeing many handsome men with Kitagawa Kaimu, Ryunosuke, and Oozora, she didn't think Ishikawa Toru was that good-looking.

But this was, after all, the first time someone had asked for her contact information!

I'm nervous, excited, and just thinking about it makes me a little happy!

So, should she give it to him or not?

What do you think, Hai Meng?

Unable to make up her mind, Sugaya Noi had no choice but to quietly seek help from Kitagawa Kaimu once again.

Ryune and Oozora turned to look at her upon hearing this.
