What's Wrong with Adding Me to So Many Omni-Anime Geniuses? Chapter 483

"Hey, Chihaya, which place around here do you find most appealing?"

"The Yuigahama Bus Stop just now."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because I have an acquaintance whose surname is this."

"..."

Sakurajima Mai let out a long sigh, struggling to suppress the urge to push him off the train platform.

"That acquaintance, is she a girl?"

"That's true."

He nodded calmly.

"You like her?"

"I'm actually closer to her and her best friend than to her."

"..."

Chapter 443 It's Ice, Not Fire.

To avoid transforming herself from an actress into a criminal suspect, she quickly boarded the tram that had just come to a stop and opened its doors.

Sakurakoji Talent followed closely behind, seemingly oblivious to how infuriating his words had just been.

"Hey, Mai- san, where to next?"

"Shut up!"

Her voice was calm, but suppressed anger was palpable.

Hi~

Clang! Clang!

The tram slowly started moving, the light outside the window gradually dimmed, and it was already evening.

Although we visited several places, the attractions and cities were quite small, so it didn't take up too much time.

After a while, Sakurajima Mai took out the Pocky she had just bought from the vending machine at the station, opened it, took out one, and took a small sip.

"Hey~"

After a moment of silence, she parted her red lips slightly again.

"Um?"

"What you just said was true?"

"You mean?"

"What's your relationship with that girl named Yuigahama...? Are you classmates?"

"No, not exactly. It's a bit complicated to explain... To be precise, she's my agent, and she occasionally fills in for me."

"So, colleagues?"

"It's not that she's short of money; she just has to cover for me because she loses every bet with me."

"I smell a teen romantic comedy in this."

"As a virgin who has been single for many years and has never been in a relationship?"

"An actor who debuted as a child star!"

She glared at him and stomped hard on his nearby foot.

"Wow~ Hoo~"

"You, you! Don't you have any shame?!"

He let out a rather loud, strange cry, attracting odd looks from the other passengers in the carriage. Sakurajima Mai blushed and loudly rebuked him.

Even though there weren't many people in the carriage and their gazes weren't directed at her, it was still incredibly embarrassing.

"Ha~ Shame is a weakness, how can I allow myself to have a weakness?"

Without a word, he brushed his White Hair with his hand, grooming himself like a white cat.

"Soliciting nonsense..."

Sakurajima Mai, still unable to let go, had Pocky in her mouth, her clear saliva wetting the black tip coated in chocolate. "If you're lying, I'll make you eat Pocky with your nose."

After finishing the one she was holding, she handed him another.

Himemiya Chihaya glanced sideways and took the stick with her hand. "One?"

"One box."

"..."

Click~ Click~

I've never tried it. Could I do it? Eating Pocky with my nose... No, no, no, even if I could, I wouldn't do it.

It has nothing to do with cleanliness; it's also a psychological issue.

A long silence followed.

"Hey, why is Chihaya taking such good care of me?"

Sakurajima Mai stared intently at the carriage floor with her deep, dark eyes.

"Hmm?"

"Generally speaking, no one would want to get involved with a troublesome woman like me, right?"

"Really? My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours."

"Huh?"

She turned her head to look in surprise.

Himemiya Chihaya leisurely munched on her Pocky, her eyes also closed, and explained unhurriedly, "Young people these days are all very naive and immature."

"Treat them a little nicer, and you'll get a loyal, sucker-up... Oh, sorry, that was a bit harsh, forget about it!"

"Especially considering that the target is a former nationally renowned actress... I think even if you told them their lives would be in danger, it wouldn't stop these young people from rushing towards the flame like moths to a flame, would it?"

"Besides, it involves supernatural phenomena—something you might never encounter in your lifetime! You'd regret it for the rest of your life if you missed it."

"Your way of thinking is really awkward and strange... Also, please apologize to all young people."

Sakurajima Mai stared at him with a cryptic expression, her demeanor subtle. "So, are you that kind of person?"

What do you think?

"Obviously not."

"You have excellent taste,"

Himemiya Chihaya nodded in satisfaction. "So, what kind of person do you think I am?"

"Playboy who deliberately approaches beautiful young girls."

"... Could it be that, Ms. Mai, you've planted a surveillance camera on me?"

"Is it really necessary to do that? It's obvious, isn't it?"

"Hmm~ What if I said that's why I came here?"

"Be serious, why are you meddling in my business?"

Her expression was serious and solemn, her cool and gentle demeanor devoid of any hint of jest.

"..."

Tsk, see, no one believes me even when I tell the truth.

Being a person is really too difficult...

"To avoid others actually taking advantage of me, I'll answer later. Is there a suitable place to talk?"

He glanced around and wondered if it was because of his appearance, but he seemed too conspicuous.

Is this such an important topic?

"Not necessarily, but it will definitely be misunderstood as a topic of Chūnibyō)."

"Didn't you say you didn't care what other people thought?"

Sakurajima Mai's eyes held a helpless smile.

Even so...

"Okay, there's a suitable place coming up soon."

"..."

The tram traveled to a few more stops, and when it stopped at one of them, he followed her off the tram and out of the station.

"Even if you can't see it, the turnstile can still recognize your bus card. Isn't that amazing?"

"At this point, what are you still saying? What aspect of this isn't amazing?"

After exiting the station, Sakurajima Mai took over his rant, found her bearings, and headed in a certain direction.

"I was just about to ask, why didn't you get a student card and instead bought a ticket on the spot?"

Because he didn't have a Fujisawa City tram pass, he bought paper tickets at the ticket counter for both of his previous tram rides, as well as for the ones before that.

"Because I don't sit often."

"Why? Do you usually ride your bike to and from school? Or is your family picking you up and dropping you off?"

Sakurajima Mai wasn't surprised. No matter what answer he gave, she would accept it and wouldn't make a fuss like a normal student.

"Didn't I already say that I don't actually live in Fujisawa, but in Tokyo?"

"..."

Sakurajima Mai stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and stared intently at him.

A few seconds later, the program restarted.

"Oh, I see. So, I'm sorry to have troubled you to come all this way today."

"It's nothing, it's just the weekend, and the two places aren't very far apart, only forty or fifty kilometers."

"Hmm~ What about the past two days?"

"Actually, I'm a habitual truant..."

"I already knew that last time."

She chuckled softly, readily accepting the situation. "How much was your transportation fare today? Are you staying here? Tell me about that along with your accommodation expenses, and I'll reimburse you."

"No need, I have Relatives here who can stay with me anytime, and the travel expenses are nothing to me."

"... Could it be that you're a rich kid?"

"Even so, I still achieved financial freedom through working."

"... It seems I still have a lot to explore."

"Mai, aren't you angry?"

"There's no need to be angry. It was my fault for not asking clearly. I should apologize to you for so rashly calling you here."

"Such an understanding Mai- san... I like her!"

Hi~ Hi~

Stepping down a dozen or so steps, Sakurajima Mai stepped onto the soft ground, smiling slightly as she looked ahead, "We're here."

"Is this... the seaside?"

Looking at the boundless sea and the continuous sandy coastline before her, Himemiya Chihaya was slightly surprised. She hadn't expected that this was the destination she had mentioned.

Putting aside the view of the sea he saw from the rooftop of Minehara High School last time, to be honest, he has hardly ever seen the sea in his life, and the same goes for beaches.

"This is a beach called Shichirigahama, named so because it has seven ri (a unit of distance, approximately Shichirigahama) in its name."
