They thought that Asu Mai, who was obsessed with music, just suddenly became interested in music games, so she didn't care about the distance between men and women for the time being.

Hayami Kaoru showed a helpless smile: "Mai-senpai is still the same, are you scared, Watanabe-san?"

"I was startled." Toru Watanabe quickly turned his chair around and sat up straight to prevent being attacked again.

He asked curiously, "Still like that? Does Asuri-senpai often do this?"

"Scary from behind? No." Hayami Kaoru looked at Mai Asuka who was concentrating on playing a music game in the bass position behind her. "Mai-senpai has lost interest in everything except music since a long time ago."

She turned her gaze to Toru Watanabe: "So it's not surprising that he suddenly did something like this."

After saying that, Hayami Kaoru suddenly tilted her head and asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "But it's strange, Watanabe-san, you have played games during breaks before, right? Why is Mai-san suddenly interested this time?"

"Maybe she didn't pay attention to me before. She's interested this time because you, Hayami-senpai, suddenly showed up."

"Huh? Was I screaming too loudly when I was playing just now?"

"It's okay. It shouldn't have spread outside the classroom."

"Oh, this is so embarrassing." Zao Jianxun covered her nose and lips with her hands and lowered her eyes shyly.

"It doesn't matter. Playing games and screaming out loud brings out the passion. Some of my male friends also play games..."

"I'm going to the bathroom!" Hayami Kaoru ran out of the music classroom holding up her skirt.

So cute. I wish my girlfriend was her, even if her looks weren’t as exaggerated as a 9.

After a while, Hanada Asako returned Watanabe Toru's phone on behalf of Ikki Aoi.

"Watanabe-san, here you go." Hanada Asako handed over the phone like a rabbit poking its head out of a hole to check the sound of the wind.

"Thank you, senior." Watanabe Toru reached out to take it and looked at Ikki Aoi.

She seemed to have downloaded the same music game on her mobile phone and was talking to Asuka Mai.

Asu Mai ignored her and focused on playing with her phone.

Her behavior did not arouse anyone's suspicion. The only one who knew the truth was Toru Watanabe.

But he thought that ignoring it was already a good thing.

Watanabe Toru imagined that every time he was doing something good, he was interrupted by the same person, and he would probably have dealt with the other person long ago.

"Huh?" Toru Watanabe turned around and looked at his cell phone.

He pulled hard but still couldn't pull it out from Hanada Asako's hand.

"Senior?"

"That..." Hanada Asako took a deep breath and widened her eyes, but she still couldn't say the rest of the words.

"Is there something wrong?" Toru Watanabe was worried that she might crush the screen of his phone.

Facing Toru Watanabe's direct gaze, Hanada Asako turned her face away and felt all the heat suddenly concentrated on her face.

She gently opened her lips again, took a deep breath with a very small movement, and whispered: "Watanabe-san, do you have time after the training today?"

"No."

"I want to meet you outside of school."

"Wait, should I have said 'no'?"

"I have something important to tell you!"

"…How important is it? Um, Senior, can you give me your phone first?"

"Very, very important! I was worried about this during the final exam, and I will definitely not be able to sleep today!" Hanada Asako answered very childishly, like a well-behaved kindergarten child arguing with her teacher.

"That's really serious. I suggest you see a doctor. Cell phone..."

"No!" Hanada Asako closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously.

"That'smine……"

"No, doctor!"

"Ah, you're talking about this, anyway, can you please let me go first..."

"Only Watanabe-san can make me sleep comfortably."

"If you want me to hit you on the back of your head, I suggest you go find the percussion section students. They are professionals..."

"No way!" Hanada Asako seemed a little angry for some reason.

"Uh……"

"Anyway, please wait for me at Beck's Cafe after school, Watanabe-san!"

Looking at his phone, which was about to give out, Toru Watanabe had no choice but to say, "If it doesn't take long, I can go."

Hanada Asako let out a long sigh, finally put her heels down, and suddenly fell below 1.5 meters.

"Senior, cell phone..."

"Huh? Ah! I'm sorry!" Hanada Asako's face was steaming. She easily pulled the phone out of Watanabe Toru's hand, then held it in both hands, "Watanabe-san, give me your phone back."

"..." Watanabe Toru took it, "Thank you."

Chapter 96 A Night of Mistakes

Beck Cafe is probably the closest cafe to Yotsuya Station, except for the ones directly connected to Yotsuya Station.

You can often see students from the nearby Sophia University coming here to study or date on weekends.

The store plays popular songs and has a youthful décor. Its business philosophy is completely different from that of the Ochanomizu restaurant that Toru Watanabe visited last time.

After ordering an iced latte on the first floor, Toru Watanabe went up to the second floor to find a seat.

The counter seats by the window on the second floor offer a very good view. For example, right now, the colorful skyscrapers of Shinjuku district in the distance are very nice.

Therefore, Watanabe Toru felt less resentful about being forced to meet.

I passed the time drinking coffee and flipping through the few remaining pages of Don Quixote.

He was not interested in the chivalrous dream of the chuunibyou Don Quixote, and the reason he insisted on watching it was purely to avoid being bored while learning Spanish.

As for whether he could enrich his cultural heritage, he did not deliberately pursue it.

She flipped through the previous pages again to make sure she had memorized the previously unfamiliar words, then read the next two pages. Then, with her schoolbag on her back and her coffee in hand, Hanada Asako went upstairs.

"Sorry, I'm late." Asako Hanada also sat down at the counter seat by the window.

"It's okay. It's night anyway." Toru Watanabe watched her put her schoolbag at her feet, humming a song, picking up the spoon to stir the cream on the coffee, looking like she was looking forward to the taste of the coffee.

"Why do you say that?" Hanada Asako looked at Watanabe Toru in confusion.

"During the day, if I sit here alone, I'll be approached so much that I'll want to go home straight away."

Hanada Asako smiled cutely and said, "Watanabe-san really loves to joke around."

"No, I didn't... Never mind, just take it as a joke. So, what's the matter with you calling me out?"

"Hmm~"

Hanada Asako agreed, put down the spoon, held up the coffee with her little hands as if to warm herself, took a small sip, and sighed, "It's so delicious."

"..." Watanabe Toru.

"Hmm?" Hanada Asako tilted her head and looked at Watanabe Toru who was staring at her in confusion, and then she suddenly realized.

She said: "I ordered an Italian fancy mocha coffee, which is a mixture of 1/3 Italian espresso and 2/3 hot milk, and chocolate is added. Because I don't like dark chocolate very much, I added milk chocolate..."

"Italy and chocolate are both good." Watanabe Toru sighed helplessly, "What I want to know is, what exactly did you ask me to come for, senior?"

"Ah, sorry, that's what you were talking about, Watanabe-san."

Otherwise, which one can you say?

"Although I am a member of the Human Observation Department, so far, our company has not yet had a project to 'survey what kind of coffee young human women like to drink'."

"I understand." Asako Hanada put down her coffee, grabbed the hem of her skirt at her knees with both hands, and stared down at the Italian coffee.

Watanabe Toru stirred the ice in his coffee cup and waited quietly for her to sort out her thoughts.

"Actually," Hanada Asako mustered up her courage, "I really hate Watanabe-san."

"...Ah, I see. Now what?"

"Sorry, please wait a moment." Hanada Asako picked up the coffee and took a sip, and her tension was obviously relieved.

She continued, "Watanabe-san, what do you think love is?"

"what?"

"Please answer me!" Hanada Asako grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly, staring at Watanabe Toru without blinking with her eyes like black grapes.

"Don't be so loud, don't get excited!"

"Please answer me!"

"I will answer you. But I need some time to think about this question when I'm asked it so suddenly."

"Then please think about it carefully, Watanabe-san."

Watanabe Toru took a sip of his latte and pretended to think.

How is it possible to suddenly come up with an answer to such a question?

Besides, rather than what love is, he wanted to know what Hanada Asako really wanted to do.

"Have you thought about it, Watanabe-san?" Hanada Asako was like a tutor chasing after her students to ask questions.

"Like coffee." Toru Watanabe said nonsense casually.

"coffee?"

"Hmm." Watanabe Toru held up the coffee cup and looked at the 'Beck' store logo on it. "There is a song that says: 'The taste of love is like this bitter coffee. Even though you can add some sugar, it still makes people feel haggard.'"

“Is there such a song?”

“It’s a Chinese song.”

There is a song, but the original lyrics are: The taste of missing someone is like this cup of bitter coffee.

“So Watanabe believes that even if love has its sweet moments, its essence is still bitter.”

"So that's how it is? Then let's do that." Toru Watanabe felt that this explanation made unexpected sense.

Could it be that after reading too many books like “How to Please a Rich Woman”, he has become an expert at hosting late-night love radio shows?

"But..." Hanada Asako said angrily, "Even if love is bitter, passion will fade, and passionate love cannot last forever, and we cannot do anything to let the other person down!"

It was almost twelve o'clock and there were still four customers in the store, all looking over here.

Watanabe Toru put his hands on the ground and said, "Calm down, Senior, is your boyfriend cheating on you?"

"It's Watanabe-san! You did something wrong to Kujo-san!"

"……No."

"You have."

"No."

"You have it!" Hanada Asako shouted angrily, like an elementary school student who was wronged by an adult.

"Don't think you can talk nonsense just because you are a senior. I am an honest country boy and I hate people who talk nonsense the most!"

"Why do you walk Seino-san home every night?"

"She is in poor health, and I am worried that it is not safe for her to walk alone at night." After explaining, Watanabe Toru said in a lecturing tone: "Senior Hanada Asako, you always suspect that others are not loyal to their feelings because you are too suspicious and look at people with tinted glasses. Although I don't know much about love, I also know that the most important thing between two parties is trust."

"What about you and Asuka-senpai?"

"She came over here on her own today, and just for the game." Watanabe Toru pretended to be impatient, but in fact he picked up the coffee with a guilty conscience, ready to drink it in one gulp and leave.

"Why did she take off her clothes for you in the Human Observation Department activity room that day?"

"...I don't know what you're talking about." Watanabe Toru put down his coffee cup, picked up his schoolbag and stood up. "I have to catch the last train, so I'm leaving first."

Asako Hanada grabbed Toru Watanabe's arm and almost pulled him down.

“I filmed it all!”

Toru Watanabe turned around, and although the picture on the mobile phone with a double bass hammer was blurry, he could still easily identify that it was Mai Asuka who was taking off her clothes.
