Let me see your shine!

"How come this feels like work? Do you have to serve your boss too?"

He couldn't help but sigh: "JK nowadays is really confusing."

He shook his head and continued reading.

After that, Sakuta and Tomoe went on a date at the aquarium.

While watching penguins, Peng Hui looked at a penguin that woke up after the performance and was laughed at by others and said:

"That penguin feels like a senior. He doesn't take being laughed at seriously. It's exactly the same."

After she finished speaking, she saw her reflection in the glass and felt depressed.

After visiting the aquarium, the two went to Enoshima and stopped for a while at the Benten Bridge leading to Enoshima to look at the sea.

At this moment, Tomoe opens her cell phone and shows Sakuta a photo of herself from middle school.

She was very different then than she is now, and dressed very rustically.

She looked at the sea and said to Sakuta:

“I moved here from Fukuoka because of my father’s work, and I was in a small, inconspicuous group in class.

I was afraid of being called unsophisticated, not being able to make friends and being bullied, so I did a lot of research.

I put on makeup for the first time, went to a beauty salon to change my hairstyle, copied clothes from fashion magazines, and even practiced my speaking style, and that’s how it became.”

"Are you not satisfied with yourself now?"

She replied: "Very satisfied, I like it very much."

"Then why are you still worried? It's really annoying."

Sakuta, leaning against the railing, said mercilessly, "It's just another outbreak of puberty. You're thinking this isn't your true self, right?"

Peng Hui puffed up her cheeks and said, "Yes, that's right."

"so annoying."

“That’s too much!”

Sakuta turned to look at her and said, "No matter what happened in the past, this is Koga now. No matter what the opportunity was, Koga wanted it this way, and he became like this through hard work, right?"

Peng Hui was stunned for a moment and replied, "Yeah."

"And then, you're pretty satisfied with who you are now, right? But you say that's not who you really are. That's really weird."

"...I always feel unwilling, as if I have been persuaded by my predecessor."

"Let's go, the next stop is Enoshima."

Sakuta didn't reply to her, but instead asked her to set off.

Peng Hui looked at his back and smiled: "Yeah."

The audience complained:

I really like what Mai said. I hope the fake drama doesn't become real.

【How can you be so flirtatious? 】

【Le, this is the rhythm of falling. 】

【I’m going to be captured. 】

【I can tell what Tomoe is thinking. 】

On the screen, Tomoe followed Sakuta for two steps and suddenly found that a classmate was looking for something on the beach beside the bridge.

408

Chapter 408 Rumors.

Peng Hui walked down the stage and wanted to help find something, but she belonged to another small group and the classmate was embarrassed to agree.

In the end, it was Sakuta who said that it would be faster if the three of them worked together, and she finally agreed.

After the three of them searched for a while, Peng Hui found the pendant that her classmate had lost on the sea side.

Just at this moment, a wave came up and the pendant was washed away, so she hurried over to protect it.

She protected the pendant, but she also fell into the water.

Then she caught a chill and had a bit of a cold.

On June 6, Sakuta brought a can of Mikan to see her in the health center.

As he opened the can, Tomoe asked:

"Hey, Senior, why did you agree to my ridiculous request?"

"Because Koga desperately came to beg me."

She asked doubtfully, "You barely know me at all."

"Aren't we all just friends who kick each other's asses?"

Sakuta gave her the can.

"Really? I'm asking you seriously."

He replied: "At that time, I thought Koga was a good person, and also very cute."

"You're kidding again."

"If Koga was ugly, I don't know if I would have treated him the same way. That's just how men are."

"Of course I will, Senior."

For some reason, Peng Hui had great confidence in him.

Sakuta continued chatting with her and thought it would be fine if she took a day off, but Tomoe thought that if she did, she would not be able to keep up with the conversation.

"Koga is really too self-aware."

"You're the one who's so weird! You make everyone look at you strangely and make fun of you, but why don't you care?"

Sakuta said nonchalantly, "I don't live to please everyone."

Peng Hui: "...I want everyone to like me, or rather, I don't want to be disliked."

"I don't mind if only one person likes me. Even if the whole world hates me, as long as that one person needs me, I can survive."

Peng Hui was surprised by his words.

The audience exclaimed:

【Sakuta's spirit is very strong.】

【This is not something that ordinary people can do. 】

【Pomoe's situation is actually very common.】

【As expected of the protagonist.】

The day after tomorrow, at work.

Tomoe suddenly remembered what happened between Sakuta and Mai, and asked him what happened afterwards.

Sakuta replied, "If that cycle hadn't happened, I would have gotten the consent to date during lunch break that day."

"Liar."

Tomoe was completely unconvinced: "That's Sakurajima-senpai, an entertainer. Did she say she likes you?"

"That...I didn't say that."

"Look, Senior, you misunderstood."

Peng Hui seemed very happy.

night.

Sakuta receives a call from Mai.

"Mai-san, what's wrong?"

"I thought Sakuta wanted to hear my voice, so I called you."

"I'm just thinking about Mai-san right now."

"...Are you wearing underwear?"

Mai said doubtfully, "Though it's understandable that Sakuta would use me as material for something like that."

Sakuta saluted and said, "Full (Harmony) Naked!"

"Pervert, pervert!"

"I was lying. I just took a shower and was only wearing my underwear."

At this time, Youren's female fans were going crazy again.

Mai chatted with Sakuta for a while, and then the topic turned to Tomoe, asking him if he enjoyed his date.

He replied: “Well, it’s OK.”

"Eh... Really?"

Sure enough, her tone was very subtle.

They chatted for a while and then went to rest.

Time passed and it was July 7th.

In the physics lab, Kunimi greeted Futaba from outside the window, startling her and causing her to blush.

He came to look for Sakuta. He couldn't find him in the classroom, so he came to ask.

Futaba replied that if Sakuta came, she would convey the message.

"Is Futaba here?"

Just then, Sakuta arrived.

He saw the two people talking, stayed for a while, then closed the door and said:

"Sorry to bother you."

But soon, Futaba came quickly and opened the door.

She blushed and grabbed his collar, whispering:

"Azusagawa, are you an idiot? Are you an idiot? Don't pay too much attention to my feelings, Kunimi will find out!"

"If he had discovered it like this, he would have noticed Futaba's feelings a long time ago."

The audience said:

【Cute. 】

【Actually, I prefer Futaba's type. 】

Bigger is better.

【I originally thought Rio would like the protagonist, but it turned out that it wasn't the case at all. 】

On the other side, Kuni-mi saw them talking and said he would come to see them later.

So Sakuta chatted with Rio first.

He mentioned that there had been no problems since then and wondered what that was all about.

"As you said, the first-year student who is now your girlfriend is Laplace's demon."

She threw out a pencil with a number on the end, and as it spun she said:

“Until the future you want emerges, keep rolling the dice.”

Rio looked at the number on the pen and said, "Then, she is satisfied with the current situation, so there is no need to start over."

“But she herself is not aware of it.”

"If I had self-awareness, I would probably become a real demon."

After talking to Rio, Sakuta went out.
