What does it have to do with me if they hate vests?

After a brief surprise, a pleasant smirk crept up on the corners of his mouth, and he tiptoed and began to slowly approach the water tank on the roof with almost silent movements.

Behind the water tank, a young girl who was putting her ear against the edge of the tank had a puzzled look on her face: Why was there suddenly no sound over there? Did that guy leave?

Thinking of this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She is not good at communicating with others and is most afraid of the start of school. However, time is fair to everyone and the first day of school will come sooner or later. She does not have the courage to skip school so she can only go to school obediently. However, she feels that even her breathing is very oppressive in the classroom. Finally, she can't stand it anymore and can only run to the rooftop where there are few people to relax. But before she can relax, other people come up, which makes the panicked girl have no choice but to hide behind the water tank.

"What is this? Misfortunes never come singly?" The girl lamented her bad luck in her heart with a sad face. "Anyway, as long as he leaves, I don't have to hide behind the water tank anymore."

Just as the girl felt relieved, she carefully poked her head out from behind the water tank.

Then she saw a big little face coming towards her.

"Surprise!"

“Eeheeeh——?!”

"Hey, isn't this Ichiri? I thought someone was hiding here." Shiki greeted the other party in the standard otaku tone that matched his personality.

"Aba Aba..."

"Wait, don't melt into slime all of a sudden--!"

Before she lost consciousness, the last thought in the girl's mind was: Mom and Dad in heaven (who are not dead), school is really scary...

Chapter 82: A Poke and a Jump

I wonder if you have ever had similar feelings.

When petting a pet, the most fun pets are those that jump around when poked and respond to every interaction, compared to those that are overly active, those that struggle desperately and refuse to obey, and those that lie motionless and pretend to be dead.

From the perspective of Four Seasons, the Yamada Fairy is an overly proactive big Labrador, intimate and clingy, and has almost no idea what distance is.

It seems that Yukinoshita Yukino has given up on herself and followed him, the culprit who almost destroyed the Yukinoshita family, but in fact she has not really given up everything. Her heart is still tightly closed like a giant clam, resisting the invasion of the four seasons. She will neither take the initiative to look for him nor highlight her own presence. Even if he teases her, he will only get a non-violent and non-cooperative attitude from the other party. If he suddenly wants to have sex with her, the scene on the next day will probably be quite tragic.

The type who pretended to be dead without moving was Hayasaka Ai who I met yesterday. She seemed to be quite strong, but in fact her whole spirit was quite depressed and she was very close to the state of "resigning herself to her fate". In the situation yesterday, even if I asked her to sleep with me, I guess she would agree. At most, she would complain to herself in a place where no one was around and vent her stress in other ways.

They are all very cute girls, each of them has her own charm, and they probably have a considerable number of fans in their respective circles. However, for Shiki, they are not as worthy of being teased as Goto Ichiri.

After all, this introverted and even autistic child has "please bully me" written all over her face, making people feel like they'd be at a disadvantage if they didn't bully her.

"I didn't expect Ichiri-chan would skip classes," Shiki said happily after confirming that Goto Ichiri was just turning into a slime to escape reality. "I thought a kid like you would sit in the classroom and listen to the class obediently even if you don't like it."

"Woo..."

It was said right.

Goto Ichiri had a sad face. She was indeed a loser who didn't even have the courage to skip classes.

The reason why she appeared on the rooftop at this time was because she forgot the time when she ran up to relax during the break. When she came to her senses, the bell had already rung. She really didn't have the courage to walk into the classroom facing the eyes of the whole class...

"Could it be that the bell rang while you were slacking off here, and you were afraid of being late for the classroom and being seen by everyone, so you just hid here?" Si Ji asked seriously.

"Wow..." The girl whimpered like a puppy that was stepped on.

Why is his guess so accurate? Can this guy read minds?

"How could I have that kind of supernatural power?" Si Ji said with a smile.

"Ah, wow?!"

No, no, no, this is just mind reading!

The girl's mind was in a mess, and the pigtails made of yellow and blue hair accessories kept shaking like living hair. If this was an animation, her eyes would definitely have turned into mosquito-repellent eyes.

"Okay, no more jokes." After appreciating the girl's ever-changing expression for a moment, Shiki said contentedly, "Goto-san, it will be hard for you to fit in at school if you continue like this. Since you're good at playing the guitar, why don't you join the light music club?"

In Shiki's impression, although the light music club of Toyonozaki is not as big as the chorus club and the wind orchestra club, which can participate in regular competitions, it seems to have a good reputation in the academy, and it seems to be composed of girls. From this point of view, it should be a good fit for Goto Ichiri.

"I have been to the light music club..." Goto Ichiri pointed at his finger, his eyes wandering, "But there is no need for performance skills to join the club, and there are very fragrant black tea and very expensive snacks to eat. The seniors also seemed very attentive. I don't know why I always felt that they were too enthusiastic and a bit scary, so I ran away..."

"Wouldn't it be better to relax a little?" Si Ji looked at her in surprise.

According to Shiki's understanding, Toyonozaki's light music club is indeed that kind of light and soft feeling. Even the name of the band is After-School Tea Party. They have never participated in any competitions, and naturally there is no performance. If it were in other schools, it would probably be downgraded to a fan club. The best result was a performance on stage at last year's school festival, which received pretty good reviews from visitors.

"I, I, I want to form a band! And then make money as soon as possible, so that they will agree to let me drop out of school!" The girl said in a tone that was totally different from a joke, with great longing. It seemed that she was really suffering from school life, just like the person who was almost unable to breathe with the Lighthouse Country police kneeling on his neck.

And Shiki’s expressions become more subtle – what musical version of Yamada Elf?

However, she cannot be compared with Yamada Fairy. Fairy truly possesses an enviable talent. She was able to write novels worthy of publication when she was in elementary school. Her subsequent performance has also been on the rise. Even among all light novel authors, she is outstanding.

Although Goto Ichiri also has certain talents, she is only excellent and is far from the level of Yamada Fairy. It should not be too difficult for her to make a living by music in the future, but if she wants to go further, she will need hard work and opportunities.

"Forming a band is not something you can do just by talking about it. Have you tried to find people who share the same ideals as you?" Si Ji asked.

"Yes, yes!"

The girl nodded hurriedly.

This surprised Si Ji. He thought that with the girl's introverted personality, she would not be able to find other companions to form a band. Now it seems that music is more important to her than he expected at the beginning...

"I brought my guitar to school, and often carried a bag with band badges. I would occasionally put my favorite band's CD on the table during breaks... But a whole year passed, and no one talked to me..."

Goto Ichiri added quietly.

four seasons:"……"

Top students have privileges.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is such an excellent student. As a writer who has published light novels, she ranks among the top in almost all subjects. She has the privilege of occasionally skipping classes or sleeping in class without being criticized by the teacher.

During this period, her "Love Metronome" was beaten by "The Exploding Dark Fairy" in terms of sales and popularity. She was in a bad mood and decided to skip class when she saw that the next class was her most hated subject.

Because there are occasionally faculty members wandering around the school during breaks, it is naturally very important to find a good place to spend this leisurely time.

Kasumigaoka Utaha happened to know such a place - the rooftop of the teaching building.

Unlike the romantic places in the animations, the rooftop is very windy and dusty, so other students generally don't go there. But in fact, near the water tower, due to the structure of the rooftop, there is almost no wind and less dust. You can spread a few tissues and use them as a picnic blanket to rest for a while.

As a result, when the girl opened the door to the rooftop with great anticipation, she saw the assistant boy of Yamada Fairy sandwiching the face of a pink-haired girl with two pieces of toast that came from nowhere.

The boy who looked slightly angry asked: "What are you?"

The girl, who was almost crying due to the overwhelming power, said: "A stupid sandwich!"

Chapter 83: Beautiful Girl-flavored Sandwich

"I didn't expect Miss Yamada's little follower to be such a person."

Kasumigaoka Utaha spoke condescendingly to Shiki who was bullying the little girl with a slightly contemptuous tone.

Shiki temporarily let go of the tearful Goto Ichiri and looked at the uninvited guest with a good figure at the entrance of the rooftop.

"Isn't this the famous Kasumigaoka classmate?" After a moment, he asked in a joking tone, "Why would an excellent student like you skip classes and appear in a place like this like bad students like us?"

"Ah, ah," Goto Ichiri raised his hand tremblingly and said in a very low voice that was almost drowned out by the wind on the rooftop: "I'm not a bad person..."

"Then let's change it to the poor students whose grades are just above the passing line." Si Ji said with a smile.

"Gum..." The girl covered her heart and squatted back on the ground tremblingly.

After the celebration banquet, the relationship between Kasumigaoka Utaha and Yamada Elf seemed to have subtly eased a little, and it was no longer as confrontational as it was at the beginning.

But this has nothing to do with Shiki. He and Kasumigaoka Utaha are still just strangers, and he can even feel a vague hostility coming from each other.

But if you think about it carefully, it is not incomprehensible. After all, the bet between Kasumigaoka Utaha and Yamada Fairy was instigated by Shiki. If he hadn't been involved, Kasumigaoka Utaha would not have experienced that miserable defeat - and it was promoted by two libraries together, which was almost known to everyone in the light novel fan circle.

It is obvious that Miss Loser's mind is not as big as it seems, so it is only natural that she would hold a grudge against Si Ji for this.

"I just don't want to waste meaningless time learning knowledge that I already have. Please don't drag others to the same level as you. Thank you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha lifted her long black hair and said with a meaningful chuckle.

"Wow, is this the confidence of an honor student? But if you ask me, I'm afraid there will be many people who are eager to get my rank, which is worthless in your eyes."

Shiki responded with the same fake smile without taking it seriously.

"If self-confidence is also a kind of achievement, Mr. Henchman might even win the Nobel Prize."

"It's a pity. They sent me an invitation, but I wasn't interested in listening to a few old guys talking big, so I didn't accept it."

"Sometimes I also have the thought of letting everyone listen to what you say, Mr. Follower. I believe that the whole world will be enveloped in a happy atmosphere and make an outstanding contribution to world peace." Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head and sighed.

"As long as I behave myself, it will be the greatest contribution to world peace." Si Ji said the truth with a bright smile on his face.

Then, he deliberately prolonged the last syllable and said in a tone that sounded like he deserved a beating: "But Ms. Kasumigaoka... you are really unfriendly just as Ms. Kashiwagi Eri said before. If this continues, I am really worried about your interpersonal relationships..." Then he slammed his palm as if he suddenly realized something, "Oh, don't you have any friends at all so you don't have to worry? Then I am really rude~"

"He believed the words of that stupid blond girl. Just from this point of view, Mr. Follower's sanity is worrying." There was no anger on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face. "Isn't it natural that people who are too outstanding will not have many people who can keep up with them? Or in Mr. Follower's worldview, playing house with a group of people like a child is the embodiment of so-called interpersonal relationships?"

Kasumigaoka-san looks so handsome!

Goto Ichiri, who was standing by, was listening to what Kasumigaoka Utaha said, and stars were popping out of his eyes: Is it because I’m too outstanding that I don’t have friends?

"No, she's just talking nonsense." When the girl tried to numb herself with what Kasumigaoka Utaha said, Shiki suddenly leaned over to her ear and said.

"Ehh?!" Because of the sudden attack and the sensitive earlobes, Goto Ichiri was frightened and covered his ears and hurriedly took several steps back: Even after this, you still say you can't read minds!

"I really can't read minds. It's just that your thoughts are written on your face, so it's very easy to guess." Si Ji said happily.

Then he looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha as if to show his protest: "Look, as long as we open our hearts and have a good conversation, it's easy to become friends, isn't it!"

"Friends?" Kasumigaoka Utaha sneered, "I only saw Yamada Fairy's followers and his new toys."

After she said that, Si Ji frowned, his aura rose, and he spoke in an unquestionable tone.

"That's right!!!"

"You don't even want to refute it?" Goto Ichiri complained weakly.

"But there's no rule that you can't be friends with your toys, right?" Si Ji continued confidently, "You see, many boys call paper and figurines their wives. Isn't that much closer than being friends?"

“Those are dead otakus.”

"so what?"

"But you are not human."

"..."

In Kasumigaoka Utaha's worldview, otakus don't seem to be the same species as humans.

Shiki originally wanted to re-prove from a taxonomic point of view that the otaku was still a Homo sapiens of the genus Homo of the order Primates of the class Mammalia of the phylum Chordata, but at this time his stomach made an unseemly sound.

Speaking of which, it’s lunch time after this class.

I don’t know if it’s because he has undergone systematic physical strengthening, which has made his body functions stronger than normal people, but Si Ji’s appetite is larger than normal people and he gets hungry faster. So recently, Si Ji often eats some gourmet ingredients from blind boxes, because they contain richer energy than earth ingredients, and are more filling.

But no matter how extravagant he is, he will definitely not eat like this in the morning, so he will feel hungry earlier at noon, which is also one of the reasons why he has no interest in class.

So he simply stopped arguing with Kasumigaoka Utaha, took out the toast he had prepared long ago, stuffed lettuce, tomato and bacon into it, spread tartar sauce on it, and started making a simple sandwich by himself.

"...Ah, that's the bread that was stuck in my face just now." Goto Ichiri said weakly.

"Your skin is dry and you don't have any makeup on your face, so it's okay, you can eat." Shiki chewed the sandwich with slurred words.

"Oh, that's not the question..." The girl looked like she was about to cry.

"This child is not wearing any makeup. Is she her natural face?" Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Goto Ichiri with some surprise.

Goto Ichiri's appearance can be considered above average in Toyosaki. Originally, Kasumigaoka Utaha thought that she put on a lot of makeup, but if "above average" is only the level that can be achieved without makeup, then how cute can this child be if she puts on a little makeup?

Shiki gave Goto Ichiri a thumbs up, and said to Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was looking at something dirty, "It smells like a beautiful girl..."

So Goto Ichiri melted with shame once again.

Chapter 84: Consensus between Gentlemen and Ladies

"Where did you get these things from?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Shiki's magic-like skills and muttered in confusion.

She had had this doubt when she attended the celebratory BBQ before, but it was in the other party's yard at the time, so if there was some mechanism or something, it could be explained. But now it is on the rooftop of the school - it is impossible for this guy to have renovated the school rooftop, right?

"My secrets are just like the secrets under a teenage boy's bed. They cannot be pried into casually." The young man said with a mysterious and evil smile.

"Even if you look like you want to say something profound, but judging from the content, you just admitted that you are a pervert, right?" Kasumigaoka Utaha pointed out the problem.

"Why is it that teenage boys are considered perverts if they sleep under their beds?" Si Ji stood up for his male compatriots, "Apologize to all the boys who have beautiful dreams about youth!"

"Sorry (laughs)."
