Sakayanagi Arisu Develops a New Desire. / Sakayanagi Arisu: Don't You Want to Have Me?

"Isn't that Classmate Hashiba from Class A of the First Year? Why is he moving so close to Sakayanagi?"

"Yeah, isn't Classmate Hashiba's girlfriend Ichinose? Why is he putting his arm around Classmate Sakayanagi's waist?"

"Good heavens, am I seeing things? It really is him putting his arm around her waist!"

Besides the second and third graders who were strolling and playing in the streets, the first graders reacted even more strongly when they saw this scene.

After all, many people have experienced Hashiba Hikaru's methods firsthand, whether it's his absolute control over Class A or the vast amount of Private Points he possesses, these things make everyone very concerned.

"I remember Classmate Sakayanagi is the representative of Class B, right? Shouldn't these two be rivals? Why are they so close?"

"This is incredible! This is definitely big news!"

"I'm saying you must be mistaken. Didn't you see that Classmate Hashiba is still holding Classmate Sakayanagi's cane? Something must have broken down, so Classmate Hashiba is helping Classmate Sakayanagi move around, right?"

After watching the two people move for a while, someone seemed to realize something.

"It seems so. I saw Classmate Sakayanagi's feet were resting on Classmate Sakayanagi's feet."

After witnessing this scene, some students quickly came up with reasons that convinced their friends.

On the bustling street, Class A of the First Year finally saw this scene: in the distance, Hashiba Hikaru Sakayanagi Arisu's waist and was walking slowly forward, with the girl resting her head on his chest. This posture was far too intimate.

"Hey, Sumida- kun, what is Classmate Hashiba doing?"

The girl named Ninomiya Yui subconsciously asked her boyfriend, who was Ichinose Honami and Hashiba Hikaru. After seeing this scene, her face turned a little pale.

"Hmm, I think Classmate Hashiba is probably helping Classmate Sakayanagi. Maybe Classmate Sakayanagi's cane broke, and Classmate Hashiba is giving it to her."

Sumida Makoto, a decent boy in Class A of the First Year, instinctively spoke up for Hashiba Hikaru, who was also a boy, after witnessing this scene.

"Really? I don't really think so?"

Ninomiya Yui seemed a little skeptical. Just as she was about to move closer for a better look, Sumida grabbed her clothes.

"It's best if we don't get involved in this kind of thing. Can't Classmate Hashiba have his own private space? Let's not create unnecessary trouble."

"Um..."

After being persuaded by her boyfriend, Ninomiya Yui temporarily abandoned her idea. However, the girl seemed to have thought of something else and immediately took a picture of that area with her phone, which she then accidentally sent to the Class A- class group chat.

"..."

Seeing this, Sumida was speechless. He glanced again at the couple leaning on each other and slowly moving forward in the distance, and silently prayed for Hashiba Hikaru.

I hope Ichinose is a reasonable person.

Otherwise, big problems might arise later.

Just like Ninomiya Yui, many students in Class A are fans of the pairing of Hashiba Hikaru Ichinose Honami, and they definitely don't want to see their relationship have any problems.

Chapter 598 Sakayanagi Arisu developed a new desire.

On Sunday, Hashiba Hikaru held tightly to Sakayanagi Arisu's waist, supporting her as they moved forward. Because of the large number of people on the street, their movement was slow.

"Classmate Sakayanagi, are you tired?"

After walking about halfway, Hashiba Hikaru asked about it softly, since the girl had difficulty walking and it was necessary to pay attention to whether she was feeling comfortable at all times.

"I feel fine. Classmate Hashiba is very strong; I didn't even have to use much force."

Sakayanagi Arisu kept her face pressed against Hashiba Hikaru's chest. She could not only hear his strong heartbeat, but also feel the hot aura emanating from the boy, which made the girl's delicate face flush.

"That's good. We should still be about halfway to our destination, right?"

Hashiba Hikaru glanced around. Although he could always feel the curious gazes of others, he had gotten used to it and didn't care as much anymore.

"Yes, it'll be over soon."

Even though she boldly proposed such a daring idea, Sakayanagi Arisu could feel her heart racing during such a long period of close contact with the boy, something she simply couldn't control.

The silver-haired girl could feel the strong hand around her waist, which made the blush on her face even more pronounced.

As time passed, Sakayanagi Arisu experienced a very strange feeling, which reminded the girl of something else.

Although she has never been in a romantic relationship, Sakayanagi Arisu has read many literary works related to love.

Under Kamuro Masumi's watchful eye, she knew that many girls who had close relationships with Hashiba Hikaru would spend the night in the boy's room, and the next day, the boy would have a captivating allure that didn't belong to his age.

Sakayanagi Arisu understood why, but she had never experienced it firsthand; she only knew the theory.

But today, moving around with Hashiba Hikaru in such a sticky, intimate way, she felt a surge of passionate emotions within her, which she considered to be her instinct.

It's perfectly normal to feel desire when maintaining such intimacy with a loved one, right?

"Are you really alright, Classmate Sakayanagi?"

After walking for another four or five minutes, Hashiba Hikaru noticed that the girl in his arms had a slightly flushed face. He didn't know if she was too tired or if there was something else wrong, so he asked her with some concern.

"It's alright, Classmate Hashiba, don't worry too much. Let's hurry to our destination."

Sakayanagi Arisu gently shook her head, pressing herself against Hashiba Hikaru's chest again. She found the feeling very comfortable and didn't want to leave at all.

"... Oh well."

Since the other party had clearly stated that there was no problem, Hashiba Hikaru did not insist any further and continued to move forward with Sakayanagi Arisu.

Because both his hands were occupied, the boy had no time to pay attention to his phone, and at that moment, many people sent him contact messages.

Someone posted photos of the two people that had just been taken on Student Forum, and the matter has been brewing for some time now, with various posts of different opinions constantly being updated, hotly discussing this scene on the shopping street.

It took Hashiba Hikaru and Sakayanagi Arisu about fifteen minutes to reach the restaurant where the girl had arranged to meet. Once they arrived, the boy handed the girl his cane, and after she took it, he slowly released her.

How are you feeling?

"I feel great! Congratulations, Classmate Hashiba, your adventure is over!"

After being released by the boy, Sakayanagi Arisu felt the warmth from before vanish instantly. She looked at his face with a lingering sense of longing, then turned her head away again.

"Let's go in together then. We're actually a bit hungry after walking all this way."

Hashiba Hikaru seemed oblivious to Sakayanagi Arisu's change in expression. He looked up and surveyed the restaurant in front of him. He had been to this place before; it was a very popular spot among students, and you couldn't get a table on Sundays without a reservation.

"Yes, I've already reserved a table. Just give me your name."

After using the cane to steady herself, Sakayanagi Arisu reflected on her experience and immediately realized that it was more comfortable to lean against the other person's chest than to move by using the cane herself.

This idea sparked another thought in the girl.

[If I won, could I experience that feeling every day?]

"Classmate Sakayanagi, are you spacing out?"

Seeing the silver-haired girl standing motionless at the door, Hashiba Hikaru curiously peeked out and asked a question.

"Of course not, I was just thinking about another issue."

A smile appeared on Sakayanagi Arisu's small face as she met Hashiba Hikaru's curious gaze, and her answer was very serious.

Can I know what the problem is?

"Let's keep it a secret for now, let's go eat first."

"Good."

Seeing that she wasn't going to explain her inner thoughts, Hashiba Hikaru didn't press the issue, since the conversation had already revealed a lot of valuable information.

Just as Sakayanagi Arisu felt he had delved into the depths of the boy's heart, Hashiba Hikaru also felt that after today's in-depth discussion, his understanding of the silver-haired girl was clearer, at least no longer as vague as before.

Upon entering the restaurant, a staff member immediately approached them and, after confirming the girl's reservation, led the two to a table by the window.

"Ladies first, please order first Classmate Sakayanagi."

Hashiba Hikaru handed the menu that the clerk gave him to Sakayanagi Arisu. This was basic social etiquette; after all, he had eaten alone with women so many times that it had become a habit.

"Thanks."

As she walked in, Sakayanagi Arisu successfully suppressed her lustful thoughts. She lowered her eyes and selected the dishes she wanted to eat that day.

Hashiba Hikaru, sitting opposite him, took out his phone. He had just felt the vibration notification, and now he could finally take a look.

The first thing that catches the eye is a greeting text message from his official girlfriend, Ichinose Honami, followed by messages from Horikita Suzune, Kushida Kikyo, and Sakura Airi. Next, the most frequent pop-up messages are from the class group chat, with many messages still refreshing the screen and many people tagging the boy's name.

"Has it really fermented?"

Hashiba Hikaru knew almost without thinking that walking down the street in Keyaki Mall with Sakayanagi Arisu was an extremely eye-catching thing, and if even one Class A of the First Year saw it, it would definitely spark a heated discussion.

The students in the class are currently having a heated discussion, and a final decision must be made.

So, the boy took a picture of the cane that Sakayanagi Arisu had placed aside with his phone and sent it directly to the class group chat.

Class group chat interface.

Hashiba Hikaru: Image.

Hashiba Hikaru: Because Classmate Sakayanagi's cane broke, I walked her part of the way.

Hashiba Hikaru: Please stop making wild guesses.

Chapter 599 Sakayanagi Arisu: Don't you want me?

When Hashiba Hikaru posted the pictures and text in the class group, the discussion immediately stopped.

After all, the boy usually had a very high reputation in the class. When he gave his very clear summary, even if the students in Class A still had doubts, they had to give him face on the surface.

Group chat interface.

Shibata Sou: I knew it! Classmate Hashiba must have been helping. After all, if Classmate Sakayanagi's cane broke, she really wouldn't be able to move.

Kanzaki Ryuji: That's right. Don't you all understand what kind of person Classmate Hashiba is? Don't believe the rumors.

Ando Sayo: Yes, I believe Classmate Hashiba.

Sumida Makoto: I was there just now. Classmate Hashiba was indeed helping Classmate Sakayanagi walk forward, and he was holding her cane in his other hand.

After Hashiba Hikaru posted this message, many people immediately stood up to express their opinions. Since these people had a voice in the class, everyone echoed their sentiments, and the topic quickly disappeared from the class group.

Having solved the problem, the boy replied to the girls who had sent him messages one by one in the order they were sent, since they had already agreed on a consistent line of response; he just needed to follow that line.

"What are you busy with Classmate Hashiba? I've already made my choice."

After ticking two boxes on the menu, Sakayanagi Arisu looked at the boy in front of her with a smile.

"It's just replying to messages, so it's my turn now."

Hashiba Hikaru turned off her phone, took the menu, and started choosing the dishes she wanted to eat. The reason this restaurant was popular was because the food was delicious, and since she was already there, she couldn't waste the opportunity.

"Could this be an aftereffect of that great adventure we just had?"

Sakayanagi Arisu asked the question knowingly, her face showing an expression of watching the spectacle.

"... Seriously, if Classmate Sakayanagi could guess that, then she shouldn't have suggested such a dare."

Hashiba Hikaru showed the girl on the other end of the phone her phone chat interface, a helpless look on her face.

It's strange, really. Even though he hadn't had any close contact with Sakayanagi Arisu, she knew the most things about the group of girls, which allowed Hashiba Hikaru to show off her phone without any qualms.

"That won't do. Didn't I already say that if we want to be the ultimate winner, we have to gradually change everyone's impression of us?"

Sakayanagi Arisu smiled slightly, speaking with great confidence, "Once everyone gets used to me and Classmate Hashiba appearing together, they'll be more comfortable when that matter is announced."

"..."

She remained as confident as ever.

"If I don't choose you in the end, won't you be very disappointed, Classmate Sakayanagi?"

Looking at the silver-haired girl's confident expression, Hashiba Hikaru deliberately made her tone flippant.

"If Classmate Hashiba don't choose me in the end, you'll definitely regret it."

Upon hearing the boy's words, Sakayanagi Arisu seemed completely unconcerned, instead explaining the consequences from the boy's perspective.

"Will I regret it?"

After the clerk left with the menu, Hashiba Hikaru raised an eyebrow, seemingly not quite believing what the clerk had said.

"Of course, if I'm not mistaken, Classmate Hashiba desire for a perfect ending stems from your greed."
