Did I do something that made them hate me that much? But considering the key chain incident, I guess it’s understandable that they hate me. I had no choice! This was the only way to proceed according to the original story!
…I’m sorry, I was being selfish. Is my goal to flirt with the heroines? No, it’s not. Even if the heroines hate me, I’m going to see my grandmother, right? Then you should be happy that they hate you.
I tell myself that and let her give me Niiro’s bag.
“How is it?”
“How is what?”
“Are you happy?”
Happy? …What do you mean? Of course I’m frustrated! I want to say that clearly, but I’m a little happy, which is a problem. Why am I such a pathetic man! I should just throw away the bag I’m holding! But I’m happy to have your bag!
It’s frustrating that Niiro thinks of me as her errand boy, but I’m happy to have her bag, which is her personal property. I won’t be able to wash my hands for a while after touching Niiro’s personal property.
“Um, I’m happy.”
“Really? …I see.”
In the original story, no matter how much I hated her, I didn’t go this far, but I may have gone beyond the original story. Even if I’m hated too much, it won’t affect Saotome’s favorability, so it’s fine as it is, but… I want to have a little fun while I’m at it.
“Hey.”
“Oh, sorry. Wait.”
Niiro tried to say something, but I stopped her. That’s because the event I mentioned earlier is about to happen. Saotome will catch Hisada-chan, who is about to fall.
I have to check this out or I can’t call myself a fan. So, it can happen anytime.
“Huh!”
Here it comes! Hisada-chan loses her balance and falls forward.
“Oops.”
Saotome catches her firmly. This guy is really the protagonist. If it were me, I would have fallen with her.
“Are you okay?”
If someone with such a refreshingly handsome face says that, you’d fall for them. That’s what the maiden inside me is saying.
“Don’t touch me. Who told you to help me?”
Hisada chan immediately moves away from Saotome and walks ahead.
This happens much later, but didn’t she really want to say “thank you”? She was too surprised to say it, right? Knowing that, watching this scene gives it a whole new perspective.
“I’ve seen something good.”
I muttered under my breath, so quietly that Saotome and Hisada couldn’t hear me. I usually try not to say such creepy things, but it just slipped out.
But I managed to hold back, didn’t I? If I hadn’t, it would have echoed back like an avalanche. “No, you’re too cute!” would have bounced back reflexively.
“…”
Thud
I felt something hit my side.
“…”
When I turned around, Niiro was punching my side.
“Um, what’s wrong?”
“…”
Thud
She punched me in the side again. Did I do something? I know she hates me, but I don’t remember doing anything to deserve violence. No, it doesn’t hurt, so it’s fine.
“Um, can you hear me? Silence is scary.”
“You’re staring at Hisada-chan too much.”
It’s true that I was watching Hisada-chan to see that event, but why is Niiro in a bad mood?
“That’s an exaggeration. I just couldn’t take my eyes off her.”
The meaning is almost the same.
“Oh, I see~.”
“Yeah.”
“Then make sure you keep an eye on me too, just in case.”
“Leave it to me! I always keep an eye on Sarasa-chan.”
“…Alright. Then that’s fine.”
With that, she walked ahead.
What was that? What did that mean? What did I do to make Niiro angry? Someone knowledgeable, please tell me.
“Now, let’s cook rice and make curry. Work together in groups, and if you slack off, you won’t get any food.”
“Okay!”
This event doesn’t appear in the original story, so we just need to make delicious curry.
“What roles should we take?”
“I’ll cut the vegetables.”
Hisada-chan said she would cut the vegetables and immediately left the area. At this point, she still prefers to be alone.
“Then I’ll cut the vegetables too.”
I actually wanted to be in charge of lighting the fire, but I wanted to watch Hisada-chan chop vegetables up close. If I could see her chopping vegetables with her cat-like hands up close, I’d be missing out if I didn’t watch.
I still want to light the fire, though. Fire is so cool. I could watch it forever. Sometimes I watch camping videos where all you hear is the crackling sound of the fire. Manga and anime characters also seem to like fire attributes.
“…”
She must have really hated being with me, because she looked at me with a really disgusted expression.
“It’s okay. I won’t talk to you.”
“…”
Hearing that, she left without saying anything. She must really dislike Mizuno’s type, so I’ll stop talking to her like I did earlier.
Besides, by going to Hisada-chan, I can pair Niiro and Saotome together. Niiro’s favorability rating will go up, and being with Saotome might cheer her up.
Well then, let’s cut some vegetables.
It’s curry for four people, so there’s no need to cut a lot of vegetables, but the other group asked us to cut vegetables for our group as well, since we were helping them light the fire. So we ended up cutting a lot of vegetables.
Tonton
“…”
“…”
We’re both silently chopping vegetables. But I’m glancing at Hisada-chan from time to time, trying not to get caught.
Aaah, she’s so cute. The gap between her cat-like hands and the way she’s chopping vegetables is killing me. I’ve seen a scene that wasn’t in the game, so I have no regrets. If it were a game, I would definitely take a screenshot and save it.
Come on, my brain! Try to put an apron over her tracksuit she’s wearing now! Even though my eyes can only see the tracksuit, use your mental filter to put an apron on it!
If you don’t give it your all now, when will you? My brain is burning hot, but that doesn’t matter. Move your brain! You don’t have to move your hands, just move your brain!
It’s hot! My brain is hot!
No, it’s hot.
“Hot! What? … Hot water?”
My hair was wet, so it wasn’t just my brain that was hot, it was really hot. But who poured hot water on me?
“Your hands are stopped.”
It was Niiro. Niiro was angry that I was slacking off, so she poured hot water on me. What are you doing, Saotome! Keep Niiro happy! Niiro is serious, so she doesn’t forgive slacking off. She’s serious about her work, so of course she’s going to get angry if I slack off.
“Oh! Sorry, sorry. Was I spacing out? Thanks for letting me know.”
“Also, you’re glancing too much.”
She caught me. This is embarrassing. It’s not embarrassing if I look at it carefully, but it’s embarrassing to be caught glancing at it.
“…”
Hisada-chan is glaring at me. I’m sorry! But she was so cute! Of course I was going to look!
“No, no, no, I wasn’t looking that much. Look, I’m cutting a lot too.”
In front of me are vegetables that have been cut into pieces. I’m cutting just as much as Hisada-chan, if not more, so Hisada-chan started cutting vegetables again.
It seems that her hands stopped only when Niiro was watching her. It seems that she was a little too serious about creating a filter in her brain.
“Oh, I’m sorry. If you’re cutting them properly, I have no complaints.”
“I’m sorry for slacking off even though we’re supposed to be working together. I’ll do my best to cut the vegetables, so please look forward to it.”
“Mm.”
I didn’t think she would notice. Niiro is a serious one, so she got angry. Still, she was watching closely. I would never look at someone I dislike, so she has a remarkable field of vision.
“How’s it going?”
As I was cutting vegetables again, Saotome spoke to me. I got angry because you didn’t try to appease Niiro.
“Hey, partner. It’s perfect, look.”
I showed Hayakawa the pile of chopped vegetables with a smug look on my face.
“…Are you really Mizuno Shota?”
Gulp!
Did he figure it out?!
