I Thought We Could've Been Friends

Anyway, she did nothing wrong.

The only one at fault is him; the only one at fault is this jerk who failed to satisfy her possessiveness.

When the facade of a goodwill ambassador quietly falls away, the incredibly willful girlish heart hidden beneath the mask leaps out.

Being spoiled, willful, and unreasonable—besides expressing negative emotions about classmates, this kind of emotional dumping ground is naturally responsible for handling these kinds of emotions.

"..."

In complete silence, Asakusa Toru let her bite him, neither pushing her away nor saying anything, but simply reaching out and gently stroking the girl's back as if stroking her fur.

"..."

After calming down, the silver teeth loosened.

After wiping the drool from the corners of his mouth, Kushida Katsumi finally let go of Asakusa Toru.

"I'm blocking your way," she said, preparing to stand up.

After squatting for too long, it's easy to feel weak in your legs when you suddenly stand up.

She stumbled and fell into Asakusa Toru's arms again.

"Waaah..."

"We're still outside, why are you in such a hurry?" He pulled her up, picked her up like a trophy, and with a beep, Asakusa Toru casually opened the dormitory door.

Open, enter, close.

The girl initially showed some resistance, but the moment the door clicked shut, her will to resist vanished.

You can say more unnecessary words, and you can also say more explanatory words.

But the moment emotions run high, any more words will only turn into an argument.

Asakusa Toru was well aware of this.

So instead of trying to appease or comfort each other, it's better to avoid starting an argument.

Let's just do it first and see what happens.

Ultimately, all emotions stem from a lack of love.

Fill your heart with love, and the conflicts will naturally disappear.

[Today's record completed, this record is rated 'A', currently drawing rewards]

[Draw successful! Congratulations on obtaining the item 'Absolute Pitch']

The slightly belated settlement characters appeared, and a hint of expected regret flashed in Asakusa Toru's eyes.

So it still doesn't work?

Was there too few spoilers? Or was it that the story didn't evoke emotions in everyone equally?

Or is it simply that the writing is poor?

He didn't know.

As a result, he did not receive an evaluation that exceeded the index.

What has been written cannot be undone or regretted, and the evaluations already received cannot be reversed.

Asakusa Toru could do was to reconsider his next diary entry.

"..."

Let's take a look at the rewards.

With a slight thought, words appeared.

[Name: Absolute Pitch]

[Category: Skill]

[Effect: Absolute Pitch]

[Note: "Absolute Pitch."]

... What a fucking perfunctory introduction.

Asakusa Toru was speechless. He wondered if this was karma for fooling the Diary with his E-index, because now it was the Diary's turn to fool him.

The Absolute Pitch is there, and it still only got an A rating?!

Are you serious?

Hiss...

If we disregard the cameo card players within the world of the Girl Band Mygo, then the music itself is indeed the most important component of the story.

With the Girl Band at its core, the Girl Band is everything, and making good music is considered awesome. From this perspective, the ability of Absolute Pitch certainly deserves an A rating.

But something still feels off.

The card players don't exist. Asakusa Toru had already specifically searched and confirmed this when he saw the Girl Band touring everywhere.

This world only has all sorts of Girl Band, no card players.

Incidentally, he didn't actually find the one who was in the ban slot.

Otherwise, the reward I won this time probably wouldn't be Absolute Pitch, but Iron Man Suit.

"... Never Absolute Pitch." Absolute Pitch it is then.

Although Asakusa Toru didn't think he'd ever need to use this thing, well... it's always good to have more skills.

You never know when you might need it.

Although he couldn't perceive any change in his sense of pitch.

He could hear nothing but the breathing of someone beside him.

Anyway, I should think about what to write in my diary next.

Asakusa Toru had a premonition that the diary index for the next few days wouldn't be too low.

Although judging from today's rewards, the prizes will probably be music-related, so be it.

He doesn't mind!

Chapter 132 I thought we could become friends.

Sakayanagi Arisu closed her Diary and frowned.

Once again, this guy wrote down his itinerary in his diary.

But whether it's a smokescreen or a record, there's a degree of truth to it.

She still couldn't see through it.

Because of the 'relationship declaration' she wrote last time, she spent a lot of energy checking her 'recent' romantic partners.

In the end, she found nothing.

Yes, there are quite a few couples at this school.

The most famous are Karuizawa Kei and Hirata Yosuke from Class D.

People come and go, break up and get back together, enjoying fast-food romances in the name of 'youth'.

Sakayanagi Arisu declined to comment.

Although this casual attitude towards relationships made her investigation work quite difficult, she eventually confirmed that no couples were dating around the time the diary entries were written.

The reason is simple.

Because his mother has her midterm exams.

Even the most unmotivated students, under the pressure of failing and being expelled, will at least put in a little more effort to ensure their grades pass safely.

As for students who are already very focused on their studies... things like romantic confessions are naturally not in their considerations.

Of course, that might not be the only reason, but in any case, no couples were formed during the period when the diary was written.

Unless she didn't find out.

But Sakayanagi Arisu didn't think her investigation would have any oversights.

In other words, whether it's the feeling of being in love, Kissing, or even imitating lips with fingers, it's all just nonsense that guy made up!

Therefore, when the diary once again contained an incredibly shocking 'declaration of leaving school' a week later, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help but begin to have doubts.

Is this guy planning to write something random to mess with me again?

Write down some information that might reveal your identity, then have her investigate and confirm it like a fly buzzing around, finally hiding in the gutter like a rat watching herself being played.

Yes, that's absolutely right.

But what if it's true?

If he really did secretly leave the school, this would not only be the best opportunity to directly seize clues and find out the other party's true identity, but also an excellent opportunity to use the school rules to expel this guy outright.

So, after hesitating for a long time, Sakayanagi Arisu finally made a phone call.

"..."

It's time to make fair use of our connections.

Ah, don't misunderstand, she didn't want her chairman father to help her.

This is simply a legitimate 'report'.

After all, the fact that a student could sneak out of the fully enclosed Advanced Nurturing is an unimaginable violation.

Of course, Sakayanagi Arisu also considered the possibility that the diary was still deceiving her.

Therefore, she had already prepared a certain amount of Private Points.

In the unlikely event that the report turns out to be a false accusation, the matter can be resolved by penalizing the Private Points.

She neither needs nor would she use her so-called father's connections.

Indeed, to this day, the Little Princess still harbors resentment towards someone for saying that she was put into Class A by borrowing her father's power as chairman.

Finding out if a student has left school is actually quite simple.

Screening and location tracking, investigation and monitoring.

The Personal Terminal can easily locate all students, and it is clear at a glance when each student went where.

However, it is clear that students who would dare to sneak out of school unnoticed would not be carrying Personal Terminal that could track their movements.

In fact, there has never been a case of a student leaving the school recently.

Therefore, the focus of the investigation should be on surveillance footage.

The entire school Advanced Nurturing surrounded by an extremely meticulous surveillance network. It can be said that, except for the deliberately reserved areas, every corner of the Advanced Nurturing campus is covered with surveillance cameras.

Unless one can fly or teleport, it's impossible to bypass the surveillance cameras and leave the school.

Therefore, the result is obvious.

"... Yes, I understand. Hmm, five hundred thousand, right? I understand, please deduct the amount."

As a whopping 500,000 Private Points were deducted from her account, Sakayanagi Arisu's expression wasn't exactly pleasant.

I've been scammed again.

After her Private Points were deducted and she had half a day to calm down, Sakayanagi Arisu's emotions gradually subsided.

She quickly realized that she had acted somewhat emotionally.

She would check her diary whenever it was written, and she would always follow the bait that others threw out.

Reflect.

There's still plenty of time; I can spend these three years playing with him.

Consider this 500,000 as a lesson learned.

It wasn't a serious injury, but it was something she had spent a considerable amount of effort to obtain from the senior students.

"Whose call was that?" As if seeing that she had finished her call, Kamuro Masumi, who had been standing guard nearby, slowly approached and casually asked.
