"..." Qingye Rin lifted the hair on her shoulders and put it behind her. "Humph, you won't know if you are confident until you try. If you have confidence, you can get things done. Napoleon, who won the second, third, fourth, and fifth anti-French alliances, would not have suffered a Waterloo."

“Is it necessary to tell me which times?”

"Thank me for considering you to this extent. I am as broad-minded as Mount Mitake. Please forgive your arrogance and insolence..."

"Um, Kiyono-san, Kiyono-san, Rin-chan," Toru Watanabe pointed at the dolphin doll, "I'm helping you get it."

Qingye Rin's eyes flickered, and he finally stopped after giving a silky scolding.

"Watch this." Watanabe Toru clenched his fist, his entire right arm filled with strength.

Before Qingye Rin's eyes were ready, a huge crash came towards her and her ears seemed to be temporarily non-functional.

The red score on the scoreboard rose rapidly, soon surpassing the historical record of 9210, and stopped moving until it reached the upper limit of .

The glass cover on the dynamometer slowly opened, and the dolphin doll slowly fell down accompanied by flying ribbons.

"I told you I was sure." Watanabe Toru straightened his sleeves, took off the doll, and handed it to Kiyono Rin: "It's yours."

"...Thank you." Qingye Rin took it subconsciously, but ended up losing sight of her entire body. In addition, in order to prevent the dolphin's butt from touching the ground, she had to find a way to lift it up, and her hands would become sore after a long time.

People around were attracted by this scene.

A group of children surrounded Qingye Rin, shouting in admiration, "You are so amazing!" and "I am so envious!"

Girls, on the other hand, said things like, "I want a boyfriend like this, too!", "He's so handsome! Let's take a picture!", "Is this a variety show?"

Qingye Rin, who never cared about other people's eyes, blushed at this moment.

Watanabe Toru glanced at her and held out his hand: "Let me take it."

"...Yeah." A soft voice of Qingye Rin came from behind the dolphin.

When she met with Koizumi Aona and the others, Akiko immediately started yelling and clamoring for Watanabe Toru to go and throw another punch, win the new prize, and give one to everyone.

As a result, before they got anywhere, the staff stopped them and asked them to go to the gift area to choose one.

"Tsk, so they just have to choose one. I thought everyone chose one!" Huangzi, who chose a set of super expensive bowls, complained dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, Akiko, you should be satisfied with being able to choose one." Koizumi Aona comforted with a smile.

The staff looked at them with smiles on their faces.

With this dolphin doll that had difficulty walking and the exquisite bowls, and as it was getting late, everyone prepared to go back.

Akiko went to a nearby parking lot to pick up the repaired car and sent Watanabe Toru and Kiyono Rin home.

Chapter 156 School Trip (5)

It was the first day of November, a sunny Sunday afternoon.

Toru Watanabe was reading a book at home. On the screen of his mobile phone on the table was a video that Kumiko had just sent him.

By the river, there were reeds as tall as humans, and a girl in a sailor suit was playing a solo on the euphonium.

"How's it going? Have you made a lot of progress?"

"The reeds are so tall. Kyoto's natural environment is really nice. Do you know the name of the river?"

"hold head high?"

He was about to reply when the phone screen suddenly showed an incoming call interface. It was Miss Qingye calling.

This is really the first time in history.

It could also be a once in a lifetime experience.

Watanabe Toru answered immediately.

"Missed me?" he said.

"..."

"Hello? Are you there, Kiyono-san?"

"Sophia University Library."

"Du-du-du"

What's going on? Is this revenge for last night? Didn't he use the dolphin doll as an apology gift?

Could it be that... you are shy because you are preparing to confess your love face to face?

Toru Watanabe took a light blue shirt and put it on over the white T-shirt with a Coke can printed on it, then took his keys, wallet, and cell phone and went out.

Starting from the apartment in Kioi-cho, walk along the slope called Kioi-zaka, and the ruins of Edo Castle will come into view in the distance.

Close to the ruins is the Marunouchi Line, which starts at Ogikubo Station in Suginami Ward and ends at Ikebukuro Station in Toshima Ward.

Toru Watanabe didn't have to go that far. He turned right halfway and arrived at his destination - Sophia University Yotsuya Campus in less than three minutes.

Miss Kiyono didn't say which campus, but for people living near Yotsuya Station, it should be the Yotsuya campus... right?

It doesn't matter if it's a mistake, Toru Watanabe has already found an excuse.

"I am not a local in Tokyo, and my goal of further study is not Sophia University. As a local and the inviter, it is your responsibility that I did not make it clear. Please reflect on it."

While he was looking for an excuse, he had already seen Kiyono Rin and Ikki Aoi.

It doesn't seem like a confession of love.

No, it's too early to give up now! There is still hope!

"Good afternoon, R-san, Ikki-san."

The two people who were chatting turned around and looked at Toru Watanabe who was walking towards them from afar.

He is handsome and elegant, brimming with confidence, and his every move is full of the demeanor of a beautiful young man.

"He actually came!" Ikki Aoi said in disbelief.

"What's really coming?" Toru Watanabe walked up the stairs and stood with them.

"I heard from the girls in Class 4 that you, Watanabe-kun, never agree to girls' invitations to go out and play. I thought you wouldn't come."

"It's because Qingye-san is so beautiful and rich. She will take the initiative to treat us when we go out."

"I see..." Ikki Aoi looked embarrassed as if she didn't know how to continue the topic.

Qingye Rin ignored such boring topics and did not expose Watanabe Toru's lies in front of others.

She looked Watanabe Toru up and down, her eyes resting on his open shirt: "To look cool?"

It's very cold in Tokyo in November.

Watanabe Toru looked down at the Coke on his chest and said, "What's so cool about Coke? If possible, I prefer Mi Lao..."

"Who said that." Kiyono Rin glared at him dissatisfied, "Why did you open your clothes?"

"This is cooler." Watanabe Toru said as a matter of course.

Qing Ye Lin paused for a moment and looked at him unhappily: "Are you kidding me?"

Watanabe Toru didn't answer, but changed the subject: "What's the matter with calling me out? Sunday is my precious study time. Are you ready to pay the price for delaying my chance to win the first place in the country?"

Kiyono Rin was not happy about Watanabe Toru's tricking her, but she did not continue to pester him and explained, "Ikki-san has already found out where Asuka Mai-san's school trip is going to take place."

"So soon? Where?" Watanabe Toru looked at Ikki Aoi, "Don't tell me it's Kyoto."

"Eh? Watanabe-kun, did you know about this too?"

"..." Watanabe Toru was speechless, and finally sighed, "Forget it. After all, the proportion of students going from Tokyo to Kyoto for school trips is 47%, so it's not surprising."

Ikki Aoi was about to say something, but Kiyono Rin, who had been being stared at by the passing college students, spoke first, "Let's go in first."

So the three of them walked into the library.

The name is the Central Library, from the 2nd floor underground to the 9th floor upstairs, a total of 11 floors.

There are approximately 110 million books in the humanities, social sciences, and science and engineering, and about 11000 journals.

"What are we doing here?" Toru Watanabe asked as he looked around the library.

"Find some travel magazines and see which places are suitable for confession!" Ikki Aoi looked up and suddenly said excitedly as if he had found his goal, "Over there! The magazines are over there! Let's go over there!"

The three of them split up and looked for magazines about Kyoto.

Toru Watanabe stood in front of the bookshelf, looking at the spines of the books arranged according to the 50-character kana.

He picked up a book at random, and the faint scent of books in the air soothed his pain of going to Kyoto.

After selecting two Kyoto travel magazines, he walked to the place the three of them had agreed upon - a round table by the armrests.

Outside the handrail, you can see the first floor of the library.

This is a place where even quiet conversation is allowed.

Kiyono Rin was the second one to come back, and what she was holding was not a travel magazine.

"The Temple of the Golden Pavilion" by Yukio Mishima, "The Old Capital" by Yasunari Kawabata, "The Higashiyama Murder Case in Kyoto" by Misa Yamamura, and "The Night is Short, Go Girl" by Tomihiko Morimi.

"Are you here to read a book?"

"Don't force yourself to speak if you have a bad memory." Qing Ye Lin put the book on the table. "These are novels set in Kyoto. There are also many romance elements. It's possible to find good attractions that are not in travel magazines."

"That makes sense." Watanabe Toru nodded, "But I recommend another novel by Yamamura Misa."

"Which one?" Qingye Rin asked curiously.

"'Unethical Trip to Kyoto...'"

"You can shut up."

"Okay, no problem. Whatever R-san says is what we do." Watanabe Toru considers himself a great man, so it's not surprising that he knows the current affairs a little bit.

Qingye Rin held her forehead against his, sighed as if she had given up hope on him, and opened "The Night Is Short, Go Forward Girl".

Toru Watanabe was flipping through the magazine out of boredom, not reading any of the text but only looking at the pictures.

After he finished flipping through the magazine and wrote down a few locations, Ikki Aoi came over with a large stack of magazines.

“I brought all the ones from the last few years!”

"Ichiki-san," Qing Ye Lin looked at the magazines that seemed to be about to overturn the table in surprise, "Although Kyoto is a thousand-year-old capital, there are only a few tourist attractions. Just a few magazines can cover them all. Any more would just be meaningless repetition."

"...Yes, then shall I go back?"

"Forget it." Qing Ye Lin sighed, "Anyway, we have nothing to do this afternoon, let's just flip through the books one by one."

"Great! Thank you, Kiyono-san!"

"Ikki-san, these are the attractions I recommend." Toru Watanabe handed over two open magazines.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome. I'll go back first. See you at school tomorrow." Toru Watanabe stood up.

"Watanabe-san, wait a moment." Kiyono Rin pushed half of the magazines that were so numerous that they were almost exploding in front of Watanabe Toru, "You can only go back after you finish reading these."

"Why don't I watch it?"

"I sincerely suggest that you should watch it." Qingye Rin said with a bright smile.

"...Okay, I understand." Toru Watanabe sat down again and picked up the first magazine.

Ikki Aoi said embarrassedly: "If Watanabe-kun has something to do, you can leave first. You have helped me a lot, there is no need..."

"It's okay." The person who spoke was Qing Ye Lin. She continued to watch "The Night Is Short, Go Girl" leisurely. "This is a club activity, and he has nothing to do when he goes back anyway."

"Studying is not a big deal?" Watanabe Toru was unhappy.

"I allow you to sit opposite me for the whole afternoon and enjoy my beauty." Qingye Rin lifted her long hair from her shoulders with one hand and said proudly.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I'd be happy to do it!"

This is of course a joke.

Since joining the Human Observation Department, Toru Watanabe and Rin Kiyono have been seeing each other all day long, including this afternoon.

It's all because Kiyono Rin is his friend. If they were not friends and dared to speak like that, Watanabe Toru would have slapped her twice.

...Considering Kujo Miki's experience, let's forget about the option of attacking her.

He is not the kind of person who would argue with girls.

The three of them gathered around the pile of magazines, flipping through them one by one.
