The place is not big, about 25 square meters, and it is the type where you can see the bed when you open the door. This kind of room is similar to the single apartment of High School of Advanced Education.
It's just that the decoration and facilities in High School of Advanced Education are small and well-equipped, so there is nothing unpleasant about it.
After arriving at the destination and checking the room, Oreki immediately confirmed...
This room is quite small.
Just.
"Okay." Oreki said.
This kind of small and extremely common house is very suitable for acting. As long as classmates walk in, they will feel embarrassed.
You can pull it to image points.
And he doesn't plan to live here forever.
So.
"Also." He paused. "Recommend to me a house with high standards in all aspects."
"The distance doesn't matter, but the rent is about 500,000 a month."
"..." intermediary.
Sure enough.
The agency finally confirmed that this was the young man from a wealthy family who wanted to experience life.
"There are dedicated staff cleaning and cleaning every day."
"Then he also brought the little Swimming pool--"
"The yard is huge and so on--"
After listening to Oreki's budget, the agent immediately began to select suitable houses.
Then use your mobile phone to show the information to Oreki.
"It's okay." But this time it was her turn to live where she actually lived, and Oreki became very picky.
"But it doesn't have a yard, so I don't like it very much."
"Okay."
"Then this one."
The intermediary quickly took out the suitable housing in his hand.
He has confirmed that this is a real customer who is not short of money and really wants to rent.
So.
It took the two of them about twenty minutes to discuss the matter.
Oreki signed very decisively and paid the money.
And all the keys to the houses on both sides were handed over to him.
The old shabby house used as a pretense is 3 kilometers away from a high-end and comfortable real place to live. It is quite a distance, but it is not a problem for a cheater with super powers.
After sending the agent away, Oreki started thinking.
Although he plans to live directly in a high-end apartment, if he brings his classmates or Student Council members to visit [Snail Dwelling] in the future, it will not work without a sense of life.
And Kushida's acting has always been about integrating the spirit into it to experience it.
Put yourself in someone else's shoes so that you can perform the play better.
So I made some ordinary purchases from [Snail Dwelling Ruined House] without hesitation.
Natural.
I also bought the cheapest bedding and so on.
Oreki has rich experience in taking care of himself.
But it was like arranging supplies for moving to a new home, and it also took some time.
"Huh--"
"This is the last item of today's purchase."
He laid out the quilt, and that was all he bought.
With this in mind, he directly took the soba noodles he bought and climbed up the stairs to the second floor.
His current residence, Snail Dwelling, is on the first floor, and the second floor is rented out.
Although the Snail Dwelling here is used to gain sympathy, in order to create an atmosphere of living here, it is natural to have a good relationship with the neighbors.
"Who is it?"
Oreki After ringing the doorbell, it took a while before the sound came from the doorbell.
It's a slightly immature female voice.
"It's the tenant downstairs who just moved in today, Houtarou Oreki." Oreki said.
"Oh." The girl's voice seemed to be emotionless.
"Is this a housewarming gift with food?" the other party asked. "If it's soba noodles, please don't, I'm tired of it."
"..." Oreki.
"..." Why do I feel that the other party seems to care about the housewarming gift?
Chapter 324 Kei Shirogane, poor girl
Soba noodles are the most unpalatable of most pastas, but they are also low in calories and the cheapest.
"It's onion noodles." Oreki said.
"Oh." The other party's interest seemed to be a little higher.
Then there was a click and the door was opened.
But there was only a crack in the door, and then I heard the sound of the core of the door lock being ejected and then locked.
After doing this, the other party opened the door.
This means opening the door to let others in, worrying that others will damage the door and then doing whatever they want, so you deliberately pop the lock out.
She is a very cautious girl.
He thought so.
Then Oreki gently raised his eyes and stared at the neighbor in front of him.
This is a young girl with beautiful long silver hair and a butterfly lace headband.
The girl is very beautiful.
Her skin is as white and translucent as if she were a doll.
Probably because the living conditions are not very good, her skin color is a little sickly.
But she is quite good-looking.
The facial features are exquisite and beautiful.
She was wearing a white dress, which looked familiar.
Ah.
Remembered.
Judging from the memory fragments obtained, this is the uniform of a junior high school girl from the Shuchiin Academy.
That is to say.
Is this girl a descendant of the Shuchiin Academy?
No.
Oreki looked at the girl with beautiful features in front of her.
Because.
This girl... isn't she the sister of the hero in the original work, Kei Shirogane!
Ah.
I found a shabby house and ended up renting it below Miyuki Shirogane's house. According to the Shirogane Family's economic situation, there is indeed no one poorer than them in Kaguya-sama's world.
Kei Shirogane.
This is a very beautiful girl.
As slender and fair as a doll.
However, the skin seems to be a little sickly white due to malnutrition.
Her eyes are so beautiful that you can't help but stare at them.
This is a good-looking girl.
And the hair is also a rare silvery white color.
But now is not the time to stare at each other.
"Hello."
Oreki classmate politely handed the onion noodles as a housewarming gift to the other party.
"I'm a new resident."
"Oreki... No, Houtarou Oreki."
"Oreki... Senior..."
However, Kei Shirogane seems to have some understanding of this name.
She stared at Oreki's face in astonishment. Unfortunately, the other person's bangs were very long, so she couldn't see the other person's eyes.
It's just that Kei Shirogane is a polite person.
"Oreki Senior, why did you... move, move here?" she asked.
The private Shuchiin Academy is a prestigious and expensive school with high standards, and the students there are either rich or noble.
Her family is very poor, but she was able to enter the private Shuchiin Academy because of the school reform in recent years, which began to recruit some outstanding external students from ordinary families.
The requirement is very high academic ability.
She just satisfied this point. But she also knew very well that the other people she met were wealthy people.
So I was surprised that a formal young master like Houtarou Oreki would come to rent a house near her house.
"Maybe it's because of the things I committed when I was young and arrogant." said classmate Oreki.
He moved here to pretend to be a singer and gain popularity.
As soon as Kei Shirogane mentioned his name, he understood that Kei Shirogane was also studying in the Shuchiin Academy just like in the original book, but she was studying in the junior high school.
But since she is a member of the school, she can pass it on to other students in the school through her mouth.
Shuchiin Academy Academy students are promoted directly from junior high school to high school, and some wealthy families have more than one child, so the news that can be spread in the junior high school can easily be brought home by various students and then spread to the high school.
So now Oreki started acting immediately.
"Although I received special assistance from Student Council President and Vice President, who are now high school students, I finally successfully entered high school."
"But my family kicked me out." Oreki said.
"..."
"... Uh--"
Kei Shirogane's expression instantly became tangled.
She knew about the [Houtarou Oreki] incident. The original version of this incident was that a senior who also belonged to the junior high school last year was jealous of his classmates who took away the girl he liked, so he deliberately framed her and started a fight in the school.
As a result, he was suspended from school at home.
