The Otherworld Card Collector

Matou Shirou did not hesitate and continued the previous topic.

"Sawaga Taisuke wanted me to copy the answers for him during the midterm exam."

"It seems like something he would do."

Kuroda Hikaru was not surprised.

As for Taisuke Sawagenaga, although he was ranked first in the class, his test scores were basically the last in the class.

It makes people wonder if he came to school just to see JK.

But now it seems that it should not be;

There is no need, and I am too lazy to know the reason why Sawanaga Taisuke wanted to copy the answers. Kuroda Hikaru was just expressing his opinion on this matter.

"But Matou, there's no way you'll agree to that."

"I never like people who get something for nothing."

Is this the reason why I read your comics and you practice my physiology?

唔；

But I also enjoy it.

Kuroda Hikaru's face turned slightly red, leaving no trace, and then disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, Matou Shirou's voice reached her ears again.

"So it's very likely that Sawada Taisuke will come to you—"

"—as if I would be willing to do so."

Kuroda Hikaru sneered.

But as soon as she finished laughing, Matou Shirou hinted at something.

"But you know, Sawaga Taisuke is a jerk."

However, after hearing this, Kuroda Hikaru not only did not have any concerns, but looked at Matou Shirou with some surprise, and even the somewhat incredible look in his eyes turned into a sticky and sweet emotion at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Matou Shirou tilted his head slightly.

He hasn't said anything sweet yet, has he?

But why does Kuroda Hikaru look like he is moved?

Do not understand.

Shirou Matou decided to act according to his original plan and continued calmly.

"He's not very smart and has a small heart. He might do something extreme just because of your rejection."

This sentence brought Kuroda Hikaru back.

She did not find Shirou Matou's words suggestive, but the scene of Sawaga Taisuke stalking Shirou Matou immediately popped up in her mind, so after murmuring for a moment, she spoke with hesitation.

"Matou, do you remember what happened before we met on Friday afternoon?"

"remember."

Matou Shirou nodded and stated concisely without any change in his expression.

"At that time, Sawaga Taisuke was in trouble with some bad boys, and I happened to help him solve the problem."

There was a slight pause in his speech.

"Then I realized you were following me."

Ah this;

Even a character like Kuroda Hikaru, who is relatively cold-faced, briefly showed a slightly embarrassed look.

Because there was no way to refute it, she was indeed following at that time, but it was not only her, there was also someone else following!

That is;

"Sawada Taisuke."

"He's following you too."

"I know."

"Hey, you know?"

Kuroda Hikaru was a little surprised. Under her gaze, Matou Shirou told the story very naturally.

"Although I didn't pay much attention to it, the direction that Sawaga Taisuke went home was the opposite of where I was going."

"In this situation, encountering him in an alleyway where only locals hang out and being harassed by delinquents, it's hard not to think that he got into trouble because he wanted to follow me, but he wasn't as familiar with my neighborhood as I was, so he accidentally stumbled into the delinquents' territory."

Matou Shirou looked at Kuroda Hikaru.

"From this point of view, Sawaga Taisuke has brought this upon himself."

"really."

Kuroda Hikaru nodded.

Then there was a brief silence.

Shirou Matou didn't say anything else, and Kuroda Hikaru turned his attention back to the comic book.

Although he said he was reading comics, his eyes seemed a little wandering.

Shirou Matou saw it all and had a clear guess in his mind, but he didn't need to say it out loud, so he changed his way of thinking.

"So if my approach doesn't work, he's very likely to harass you, Kuroda."

"Well, you're right."

Kuroda Hikaru was certain that what he said about Sawanaga Taisuke being a jerk was clearly Shirou Matou's roundabout way of showing concern for her!

"I didn't expect you, Matou, to be such a cold-faced, warm-hearted, and somewhat tsundere guy."

Kuroda Hikaru apologized for thinking Shirou Matou was a cold-blooded man before he met him.

But I didn't expect that they had only been in formal contact for two or three days, and both parties were just in a relationship of borrower and borrower, but he took the initiative to care about his own safety.

Tell the truth.

"Matou, you're such a nanny!"

"How many times have you said this?"

Matou Shirou continued without even looking up.

"To be honest, I've heard—well."

The moment his mouth was blocked by Kuroda Hikaru's tongue, even Shirou Matou, who had great composure, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

This was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.

Shirou Matou thought that Kuroda Hikaru's enthusiasm had cooled, but he didn't expect that this person's enthusiasm came slowly and faded slowly!

So he, who was supposed to be in the dominant position, was pushed back for the first time and fell onto the sofa, then looked up.

Kuroda Hikaru, who was sitting on him, had a dazed look in his eyes.

In love, the person who falls in love first is most likely to lose, especially when they are not in love yet.

But Kuroda Hikaru couldn't help it.

She is willing to indulge in male beauty!

She discovered that Shirou Matou was gentle, and she couldn't help but want to be gentle to him too.

So Kuroda Hikaru leaned over and whispered in Matou Shirou's ear.

"Let's go for round two~"

"it is good."

...

Chapter 41 Ito Makoto Doesn't Give Up

It doesn't matter whether Kuroda Hikaru knows about the deal he made with the bad boy, as long as she stands on my side, it's enough——

Shirou Matou did not dwell on the issue, but chose to change his approach to solve this variable.

And obviously, he did it.

Shirou Matou looked at Kuroda Hikaru lying dead on the sofa and opened the panel with a normal expression.

【Slow start】

Attribute cards extracted from Kuroda Hikaru.

Because of the second round, Kuroda Hikaru's happiness level is now 80%, and he is not far from the next attribute card.

But coming back to the point.

Slow start or something...

"Kuroda-san, are you saying this is the reincarnation of the God Pillar King?"

Matou Shirou, who thought this in his heart, liked jokes.

However, he thought that the reason why Kuroda Hikaru fell so quickly might be related to his Kun's ice-coating.

The destructive power of this talent [Hot Girl Harvester] is evident.

Shirou Matou turned off the panel, then looked at Kuroda Hikaru who had his eyes closed, reminiscing about the battle rather than falling asleep, and spoke.

"When did you find out that Sawada Taisuke was following me?"

"Probably when you passed the traffic light before entering the alley."

Kuroda Hikaru still had her eyes closed, and the dark vision seemed to make her mind more active.

"I wanted to talk to you, but I saw Sawada Taisuke in front of me."

This made her give up the idea of talking to him, but she also discovered that Sawaga Taisuke was following Matou Shirou just like her.

So here comes the question;

"Kuroda, you followed me because you wanted to come to my house to watch "The Giant Blade of Chicken". So what about Sawada Taisuke? Why do you think he followed me?"

"Anyway, it's impossible for him to be reading comics. If that guy is reading, he's probably reading a book."

Kuroda Hikaru snorted disdainfully, but quickly reacted.

There was no way Matou Shirou would ask her such a question for no reason. And considering that he had just told her that he refused to give Sawaga Taisuke the answers, putting the two together...

"Do you think that Sawaga Taisuke is following you with bad intentions and wants to do something to you?!"

She had no doubt that Shirou Matou was making a big deal out of nothing, not because she had a very good impression of Shirou Matou now, but because Sawanaga Taisuke gave people a bad impression, and everyone had always been willing to assume the worst of him.

Rumor has it that the scum had a history of molesting others and even attempted rape.

However, these are just rumors that have not been confirmed, but they are enough to show everyone's disgust for this person.

If there were a list of the 'Top Ten Most Hated People on Campus' in the entire school, Taisuke Sawagenaga would definitely be on it.

So before Matou Shirou could say anything, Kuroda Hikaru took the initiative.

"I think you need to do something, Matou."

"You shouldn't have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against them."

There was worry in Kuroda Hikaru's eyes.

"If you're prepared, even if Sawada Taisuke does assault you, you'll be able to respond in time."

"you're right."

Matou Shirou pretended to be in deep thought, and after several seconds, he nodded solemnly.
