"..."
Kazehara Tetsu's mouth twitched slightly.
"Why do you care about this? We are not an officially registered club, nor are we going to participate in any competition. The name is completely useless, right? Even if it is just called 'Study Group', it will be fine."
"How could it be useless!"
Ichinose Honami immediately retorted, his serious look even a little cute, "The name is the soul of the group! You must have a name so that everyone will have a sense of belonging and feel that they are a part of this group!"
"Besides, a nice name can also make our learning atmosphere better."
She turned to look at the other girls present.
"Right? Everyone thinks so too, right?"
"..."
Helpless.
Kazehara Tetsu rubbed his eyebrows. He really couldn't sympathize with this kind of ritual full of girlish feelings.
"Okay, since you brought it up, then you can think of it. I don't have any ideas about this, and I don't intend to express any opinions."
He chose to just throw it away. No matter what it was called, it didn't matter to him.
"Really, Kazehara-kun is not romantic at all..."
Ichinose Honami muttered quietly, then turned to the others with interest.
"Do you have any good ideas? Let's brainstorm!"
"Well..."
Yamamura Miki, who was named first, shrank his shoulders.
"It doesn't matter, I can do it..."
"Hmm... that's it."
Ichinose did not force her, but turned to look at Shiina Hiyori on the other side.
"Where is Shiina?"
"Since everyone gathers together because of books and study..."
She tilted her head slightly and gave a very personal proposal.
"If you want to show that we are gathered together because of books and study... how about "Seikeikai"? It sounds a bit like a literary club."
"..."
Ichinose Honami The smile on his face froze.
"It's a good idea, but it feels a bit too literary. Wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing to scream..."
"Really? What a pity." Shiina Hiyori was not annoyed, still smiling.
"What about Chihiro-chan?"
Shiranami Chihiro glanced at Kazehara Tetsu cautiously, "Well... how about calling it 'Honami's backup team'? Or 'Wave Light' or something like that..."
"Rejected! Too shameful Chihiro-chan!"
After that, several people mentioned a few names one after another, such as "Mixed Study Group", "Class C Alliance", etc., but they were either too common, or they just felt like something was wrong.
"Well..."
Ichinose Honami folded his hands on his chest, frowned slightly, and thought hard for a long time.
Her eyes glanced back and forth at the people on the table.
Kazehara Tetsu and Yamamura Miki of Class A, Shiina Hiyori of Class C, and her and Shiranami Chihiro.
Finally, her eyes were fixed on the man who had nothing to do with him and was looking at the scenery outside the window boredly.
Kazehara Tetsu.
Although this man said "no way" and "whatever", there is no doubt that he is the line on this table that connects these originally unrelated points.
He and Shiina Hiyori are book friends, and Yamamura Miki are partners, and he and himself... also have some kind of unexplainable relationship.
"Yes!"
Ichinose Honami seemed to have figured out something and snapped his fingers.
"I thought of the perfect name!"
"Oh?"
Kazehara Tetsu turned his head and responded somewhat perfunctorily, "What's it called? 'Hodgepodge'?"
"No!"
Ichinose Honami raised a finger and raised a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Why don't you just call...'Kazehara Group'!"
"..."
The air froze for a second.
"Huh?"
Kazehara Tetsu An emoticon called "Are you kidding me?"
"No... why?"
This name doesn't sound like learning Small Group at all.
"Why did it become my name? Ichinose, do you think this is good?"
"Eh? I think it's great!"
Ichinose Honami looked confident and confident, and started to analyze with his fingers.
"Look, doesn't this name clearly indicate who the core of this group is?"
"The reason why we can all sit here, and even chat peacefully like this, in the final analysis, is because of your existence Kazehara-kun, right?"
"If it hadn't been for you, it would have been difficult for Shiina and I to have in-depth communication, and Yamamura wouldn't have come forward boldly."
"So, this name is well deserved!"
"Then why does it have to be my name?"
Kazehara Tetsu retorted somewhat speechlessly, "In terms of popularity, you Ichinose Honami are much more useful than me in This School, right? If you were called 'Ichinose Group', you might be able to recruit a few more people who want to learn. If you use my name, you will only be regarded as some strange bad group."
"No, no, no."
"Kazehara-kun is the only male in this Small Group!"
She deliberately emphasized the words "only male".
"As the only boy, of course you have to take on the responsibility of a boy! How can you let a girl stand in front and act as a signboard? At this time, you have to show your masculinity and become the 'center' of everyone!"
"And..."
Like a successful Little Fox, she turned to look at the other girls, trying to win votes.
"I think this name is very domineering and very safe. What do you think?"
This is completely a conspiracy.
"I... unconditionally agree with Honami's opinion!"
Shiranami Chihiro was the first to raise his hand.
Since Honami said it, it must be the truth.
Shiina Hiyori's eyes stayed on Kazehara Tetsu's slightly helpless face for a moment.
"'Kazehara Group'... it does sound like it has a different charm, it's very interesting."
Shiina Hiyori voted in favor.
Yamamura Miki felt that everyone's eyes were focused on him.
She secretly glanced at Kazehara Tetsu.
That was a man who... although he looked cold, was actually very enthusiastic, and even at this moment he still didn't really get angry because of Ichinose's nonsense.
If he hadn't brought me to Library and brought me here, maybe I would still be in a daze next to Vending Machine.
"I think it's okay too."
"Look!"
Ichinose Honami looked at Kazehara Tetsu like a victorious general.
"Four to one! According to the democratic principle of the minority obeying the majority, this name has been decided!"
"From now on we will be a member of 'Kazehara Group'! Please give me your advice, team leader!"
Kazehara Tetsu took a long sigh.
"... It's up to you."
He picked up the coffee in front of him and drank it in one gulp.
Surrounded by four different types of girls, and with such a name that is easily misunderstood.
What is this?
At least he doesn't know yet.
All he knew was that this Study Group, which was originally just to kill time, seemed to be running wildly in an uncontrollable direction.
